I'm re-submitting this per your instructions, as it has been closed by "Administrative Closure," and yet nothing has been done to restore order to the area. I'm submitting here under "Sidewalk Cleaning" but will re-submit under "Encampment" as well, as this area has been a disgusting mess for years. See original report below.

Open bag of trash spewing it's contents at NE corner of 20rh and Shotwell

This must go.

This sidewalk blocking, Americans with Disabilities Act violating, odor and filth spewing trash magnet has been here long enough. You’ve been on notice for months and NO ACTION HAS EVER BEEN TAKEN. How long till we get a fentanyl overdose or a fire like this one today in Hayes Valley? https://twitter.com/josephtylerkrug/status/1650884299149959169

Do better. Do your job. Help this person. Help us. The address is 2357 19th Street, at Shotwell.

Thank you.

Sidewalk made impassable by illegal homeless encampments. The sidewalk on Folsom between 18th and 19th streets is no longer usable as a public thoroughfare due to the amount of tents, trash, needles, and human filth occupying the right of way.

IMMEDIATE ACTION NEEDED. The storm drains at the corner of Shotwell and 19th are blocked. We have another major storm approaching, and we need these drains cleared by Thursday afternoon at the latest. Drains blocked at all four corners. Drains likely blocked in other parts of this low-lying area…please inspect there as well, but please clear these drains at once!

Graffiti covering wall owned (and presumably maintained) by the City of San Francisco. The wall of SFFD Station 7 along Shotwell Street between 19th and 20th has been artlessly defiled by local vermin (who apparently are in love with someone named Sally). Request immediate action by the City to clean up this mess that, if it were left on the walls of a private citizen’s house or business they would be fined and potentially have a lien placed on their property. Graffiti has been in place for the past 6 months and is being added to weekly.

Tree branch blocking the street, east side of Shotwell between 19th and 20th, middle of the block. Branch mixed together with various street trash in a perfect San Francisco garbage mélange.

Loose garbage

A ton of crap blocking the sidewalk

Still here (and growing )

Mattress stained with human waste and blood, leaning on side of MEDA's Plaza Adelante building Oh, and while you're there, you might do something about the abominable encampment next to it, that's going on year 5 in the same location ...

Storm drain at NW corner of Shotwell & 19th completely blocked by detritus Also, large set of tents/tarps/trash blocking sidewalk, preventing safe passage for pedestrians, and in violation of ADA compliance requiring the City of San Francisco to provide safe space for passage of persons in wheelchairs.
Requisite filth, trash and human waste contaminating area.

OK, you said the address wasn't precise enough Well here you go.583 Shotwell or mere inches from there, south toward 587 If you still can't find the tents, look for the shirtless guy screaming at the sky Issue stands as previously reported:

Large set of tents/tarps/trash blocking sidewalk, preventing safe passage for pedestrians, and in violation of ADA compliance requiring the City of San Francisco to provide safe space for passage of persons in wheelchairs.
Requisite filth, trash and human waste contaminating area. ,..

Tents + tarps blocking handicapped access to sidewalk preventing safe passage for pedestrians and in direct violation of ADA compliance. City (and thus San Francisco taxpayers) is liable for damages.
