Irma left-over tree branches are still behind 115 20th NE, in the aisle way between 20th Avenue and 21rst Avenue NE. This aisle is constantly being hampered by construction debris for the past 2 years. Additionally, in this location, a wooden fence broken by Irma keeps falling on the aisle way with large nails sticking on it, blocking the car passage. Please remove these loose wooden fences and the Irma leftovers from the aisle way.

Description
The alleyway between the 20th Ave NE and 21rst Ave NE, behind 121 20th Ave NE is completely blocked at the 1rst Street North entrance because of a fallen tree. The portion of the tree that is blocking the alleyway must be removed by the City.

2 raccoons moved to an oak tree adjoining my property. These are large animals stealing eggs from birds and destroying squirrels, They also attack cats and small dogs. I was woken up in the middle of last night with an uproar of one of them fighting with squirrels or something even bigger than squirrels. I live in old northeast. It is not exactly wilderness here. What shall I do?

Grey pelicans are dying at an alarming late in Coffee Pot Bayou. Yesterday, there was only one dead bird floating in the water in the stretch between SnellI Island and Freemason's property. Today, I counted 4 more dead pelicans floating on the water between Vinoy Park and 20th Ave NE. These are grown, large animals. I can't think of a reason why they are dying in perfect weather. There is dead fish too. But I am more concerned about the fate of these graceful, majestic birds. What is happening?

Mirror Lake Library not accepting book donations. This is a copy of the letter I sent to the library:
After checking your web site and seeing that all of your branches accept book donations, I have packed two grocery-store bags of rare books I have collected over the years. Most of these books were about poetry, philosophy, nature, etc., some of them never read, some of them read only once, all in excellent condition. My wife and I are now retired. I thought these books would be of interest to the book loving community in St Petersburg. I took them to your Mirror Lake Library branch this morning.

The lady at the desk told me you now accept only new book donations. I told her all of these books were new or in excellent condition. She didn't even take a second look. I asked her if she wanted me to dump them. She said, "yes".

I will register this as a complaint with the mayor's office and report it to Tampa Bay times. First of all, you are plainly advertising in your web site that you are accepting all book donations. Secondly, what kind of library are you to ask me to dump these precious books? I took them to Good Will today and they accepted them gratefully. You should have had at least have the decency to take a look at these books first before you ask me to dump them.

A street tree in front of my property is dead (see picture). Only the trunk remains. This tree is a hazard for the electric line and the street traffic. It must be removed.

A city maintenance ladder is sitting on top of my water meter since Mid-July. I have never seen anyone working on the water for the past 6 months, but the ladder is still on the sidewalk. Please remove it. Thanks
