Description

Garbage left out we have a huge issue with rats in the area of mice. We have personally spoke to the owner and the super of the building to no avail. This is causing a adverse impact to the community.
I have included the code for the ease of reference. I should also mention that we have made several complaints before and we’re not quite sure if anything has been done about it. Please respond to this particular complaint so that we know that these complaints are being read and followed up on and completed thank you so much.
