And the pieces are much too large even for a resident to discard.

Thank you for posting this. I, too, would like to hear from someone in the City about whose responsibility it is to clean up accident debris? Once the police have taken care of the people and the paperwork at the scene of an accident-- are they supposed to make sure the debris is cleaned up?

We continue have had a number of accidents at the Edgewood and Ellsworth intersection and accident debris often remains. I reported accident debris on SeeClickFix back on March 23, 2014 and some of that debris *still* remains on the side of the mall. I have written to my Alder who in turn contacted the Department of Transportation, Traffic, and Parking. However, I have not yet seen a response.

Here's the earlier issue.
http://seeclickfix.com/issues/996569-car-accident-debris

The PD has failed again to police its own police who are responsible to "police" the accident scene before allowing the tow truck driver to leave the scene with his source of income (the victim's car)
Its time for the Chief to sit down with his staff person in charge of the patrolmen to hold a seminar if that is what's necessary.
If this keeps happening it is easy enough for internal affairs to track back to determine who the irresponsible police officer is...and take the necessary action.
There really is no excuse for this to keep happening.

Prior to this administration taking the reins, I remember seeclickfix issues being acknowledged very soon after they were posted by at least one city department. The DeStefano administration was far from perfect, but it appeared to at least care about issues on this site. Has anyone else noticed this?

I jogged by this morning and was surprised at how much of the vehicle is just sitting there. Who's the LCI rep for this area? It's definitely a blight issue and would be interesting to see the City ticket itself for failing to maintain its property.

I just saw this article and photo from another car accident in New Haven. The photo and caption is of a home owner picking up debris from that car accident.... So clearly this issue extends beyond the accidents right here in Edgewood.

The debris is still there 3 days later. I'm going to call the WEB district manager in the morning and see is he can get this taken care of.

The debris as this location has been removed. Thank you for posting this issue.
