Description

Residents of 1790 Ella T Grasso Blvd. treat the grass covered public curb area as a personal dumpster. The garbage toter is placed on the curb several days prior to pick up day. In addition to the toter, many bags and overflowing boxes of garbage are heaped on the curb several days prior to pick up day. Since the garbage sits in this spot for several days, animals are able to open the bags looking for scraps of food, spreading trash onto the grass. Because the pile of garbage is on the curb for several days prior to pick up, the wind blows the trash from the curb and the curbside and sidewalk becomes covered with trash. This issue has been shared with 311 on multiple occasions. It is unclear whether ) the Department of Public Works HAS NOT followed up to enforce this chronic issue or 2) the Department of Public Works HAS notified the resident about the problem but the resident has ignored the warning/citation.
