Should read: "All manor of garbage..."

All manner of garbage…unless the homeless encampment is a homeless manor :-).

I stand corrected, correctly!

Don't you just love auto-correct? Required two people to fix the "correction"! How many people will it take to fix the mess on 5th Street? And how many days? :-)

And once it is fixed, how many days before the dumping is back?

In over 4 years, I've not seen Harrison st. under 880 ever be clean (for that matter, Webster also is always filthy in the same area a block away, under the hwy), i presumed it was just acceptable to have garbage strewn about there, as there always is.

This issue has been taken care of, the debris has been removed. You can close this issue now.
