Thank you for reporting the overflowing dumpster in the area to the City of St. Charles. Our Community Development Department has been notified about this request and an inspector will be by to check for violations. We appreciate your help in improving the look of our City!

Interesting--typically, at least in some other areas the special trash cans are maintained by the neighborhood assocation not by the city.

I think these are owned by New Town but I am having the Code Officer check into it to make sure. We will notify them if it belongs to New Town.

A year has passed and no corrective action of any type has been taken. In light of the blatant disregard to repair or replace the structure, this issue should immediately be elevated to Emergency Status.

Thank you for reporting this incident to the City of St. Charles. We have closed this issue. Should this become a problem again in the future, please open up a new request and we will be happy to address the issue. We appreciate your help in improving our City!

These cans are maintained by the Newtown General Assembly and this issue needs to be addressed to them.

No action for over a year; responsible party should be cited for a code violation.

Our Code Enforcement officer took this issue to the NTGA again today, though they do not have a record of previous complaints. It was not in our records either, and that code officer has left the City's employment. That being said, the NTGA has taken the issue and forwarded this to their trash company for repair or replacement of the receptacle. The Code Enforcement officer will follow up with them to ensure that this is properly addressed.

It's great that this SeeClickFix issue is finally being addressed one year later, but the make-believe aspect is noteworthy. Let's pretend this is the first time the NTGA heard of this. Let's pretend the issue wasn't brought to the NTGA attention four times. Let's pretend the NTGA didn't dismiss the issue as not being important.

An update on this situation: Our Code enforcement Officer met with Beth Brown, Asst. Community Manager for DNI Properties, today and discussed how the new NGTA staff has been trying to complete maintenance issues since they took over in August of 2016. They started with some of the larger issues that had been neglected and are now getting to the medium ones, such as getting the trash cans painted/repaired. This trash can did not make it on the list last year but they assure us that it is on the list for this spring. The can does need paint, however it has not rusted through. It is not being ignored by the NGTA but they were looking toward their new budget year and are now waiting for some warmer weather to start the work. We will keep this open until it is taken care of.

City of Saint Charles assigned this issue to Danny Watson
