No. The fish tank is still there as of today 7/19 and the pile of trash around it is attracting more dumping and is getting bigger. This is the third time I've either Reopened and/or requested a Service on this issue and it was Closed by OPW 3 times without actually fulfilling the Service Request. Very frustrating. OPW's track record in my block has been pretty good this past year or so but they have been dropping the ball this last month. Do you think I should Reopen again? Or do a new Request For Service?
FYI Animal Control was VERY responsive to a dead animal pick up request this past week. Within hours. Kudos.
Dear DPW:
Please schedule a complete pick-up of fish-tank + garbage! The glass tank is a hazardous thing to have left out, as this is now a mixed use, at _least_ half residential n'hood, with families!

Thank you OPW! Good job. I saw that some plastic bags with very heavy inert construction debris (broken concrete?) that had been added to this pile also got picked up. That you so much OPW.
