    A cardboard shanty was set up in Galvin Park this past week, near corner of First St and Greenwich Ave. Area quickly has filled with trash, feces and drug paraphernalia. This is unsanitary, a fire hazard AND much too close to other buildings. Park is too small for such an encampment, so children no longer can play here safely. City must relocate these people IMMEDIATELY where there is more room. Providing a SUPERVISED, PLANNED encampment over at West River Memorial Park (but farther from soccer field than the encampment Elicker bulldozed) with individual tents, porta-potties, simple food and drug counselling would be safer, more humane and afford such persons with more privacy and a bit more dignity than a cardboard shanty. For various reasons, such persons eschew homeless shelters, but are OK with living in tents, etc. Perhaps Columbus House or Amistad Catholic Worker house could provide some assistance, albeit without the features such persons or the current city administration find unacceptable.
  • Street Sweeping Acknowledged

    Second St dead-end. Most of this odd-numbered side was missed today, Wed Nov 29, even though there were no cars. I moved most of the mess over to the even-numbered side in the hope that this will be picked up tomorrow, Thurs Nov. 30. Thanks.

    It's 10 am on Tuesday Aug 30. TRASH on Greenwich Ave was picked up quite some time ago, but has NOT been picked up on Second Street, between Greenwich and Howard Ave, and I don't hear the truck in the neighborhood. (Recycling was picked up a while ago.)

    Final street sweeping was scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 2 for Route 13 (Hill South/City Point). However, there was no night-before robocall ("Clunk. Stand by for an important message...") and no paper signs were posted. AND there was no street sweeping. Will this be rescheduled?
  • 390 Greenwich Ave New Haven, CT, 06519, USA - City Point
    No-towing policy fail. Tenants know that cars no longer are being towed AND that the $100 fine is not being enforced. So this mess on Greenwich Ave (near First St) and other messes like it up and down Greenwich Ave (and likely all over New Haven) will sit there until next April. And for this non-service we pay some of the highest property taxes in CT.

    278 Howard Ave New Haven, CT, 06519, USA - City Point
    The left side of Eddy's has been open to the elements since at least early July. The particle board in photo only was added last week and, as you can see, does not seal the building. Therefore, before Eddy's reopens, the Health Dept needs to inspect for rodents AND for expired food.
  • 276 Howard Ave New Haven, CT, 06519, USA - City Point
    Because the later addition to Eddy's has been completely torn down, it would seem that the owner needs a zoning variance to rebuild, e.g. concerning setback, and parking. Could City Plan and/or Building Dept comment please? Thanks.
