Thank you.

The cardboard has been removed. Thank you. The human excrement remains. I have been reluctant to deal with it myself for lack of proper protection. Can the city provide a crew or individual who is properly equipped to clean and disinfect this space?

Thank you for responding to my issue and for having the cardboard removed. However, the human excrement remains. I'm reluctant to clean it myself fear of health risks. Can the city send a person or crew that is properly equipped and protected to clean up this kind of waste to help us? In the meantime I will keep our students away from this potential hazard.

Thank You

Please also contact the PWD call center 615-5566. PWD does not clean up Bio hazards. This has to be sub contracted out.

Hi David, thanks for your message. Are your suggesting that PWD would sub contract the work for us?

Oakland use's Advanced Crime Scene Clean Up for all there bio-hazard clean up. I do not know why the the card board was picked up and this was referred to code enforcement???
