This is a chronic problem that waxes and wanes. Apparently the shopping center owners and tenants don't care if their commercial "homes" are trashed.

Thank you for contacting the Property Maintenance Code Enforcement Division for the City of Richmond. We have received your complaint regarding the property listed above and we have assigned a Code Enforcement Inspector to go to the location you provided to review the problem that you reported.

The Property Maintenance Code Enforcement Officer has issued a notice of violation.

Thank goodness! This disgraceful situation has been going on for far too long.

This ticket is closed in the City's Work Order system.

So that is it? A code violation ticket?

You ask me to write a thank-you when the problem has not been solved. The two BFI trash cans are still not being emptied and have trash piling up around them. The door to the private trash area on the NW corner of the shopping center's boundary line is still being left open, and so it's open season for all the lazy (or is ti cheap?) litterers who don't want to drive to a dump. I appreciate the guys who stop by and clean up the mess, but the problem has not been solved.

This request has been received and submitted to the City agencies for review and appropriate action.

ALL OF THE TRASH AND MORE IS STILL THERE......

Does nobody give a damn about this????? It's been going on for well over a year now!

The CITY does not Care about ANYTHING, but revenue from big game sponsorships...

Richmond will end up just like Detroit if we continue down this path.

Perhaps these dumpsters and trash cans can be moved to the Redskin's training field?

The building of the Redskins Training camp is a scandal between City Council taking City land to self profit. This will bring nothing but a run down field in a few years.

The Property Maintenance Code Enforcement Inspector has indicated in the case file, that the reported issue(s) has/have been corrected to meet code regulations. Thank you for your patience in this matter.

I will say thank you when this problem receives more than a temporary fix.

THE TRASH BINS ARE OVERFLOWING. TRASH ALL AROUND THEM.

@ City:
Why is it so hard to keep the city clean and clear of garbage?

This case is currently open in Code Enforcement

Because it seems most people are slobs apparently. Why doesn't the city start up a Keep Richmond Beautiful campaign? It would raise people's consciousness about trash and might be a start to helping a city-wide problem. And it wouldn't cost a million dollars like some other projects I could mention.

Thank you for bringing this concern to the City of Richmond, Department of Planning and Development Review, however, the Property Maintenance Code Enforcement Inspector has determined that there are no active code violations found on this property, identified above, at this time; He has stated that each time he does the initial inspection the issue has been corrected. But he will continue inspecting the property in the future.

The mess is still there and growing by the day. The two trash cans have been overflowing since February 18th. Pretty hard to miss.

@ Betty,
I am Complete agreement with you, The City needs a Keep Virginia Clean Campaign. Redirect the Mayor's attention away from expensive ventures abroad to attract sport venues, but inward to clean, repair, and rebuild The Capitol of Virginia.

If one is un-kept and disorderly dressed, it is very difficult to obtain a worthy occupation. A City is no Different.

The Inspector for the area, is going back out to the location mentioned above, to review the problem again.

Please note the information provided above

the Inspector has indicated that the issue is being worked on and the trash is currently being removed.

Thanks for fixing this issue!

Now if people would act responsibly and not use the area as a dumpning ground we wouldn't have to keep complaining.

Thanks for fixing this issue!
