Description

Occupants have been using the City of Lansing Recycling Cart to contain garbage for months and is now overflowing. The cart is located right outside my bedroom window and I cannot open any window in my house due to the smell. The backyard also is full of branches and dead trees from last winter's ice storm, along with more bags of garbage that are stored along the shared fence. The smell is overwhelming. I have noticed more squirrels in the area, and more rodents, possibly rats, digging along the fence to get to the garbage sitting out.
