Set Them & They Will Be Filled!!

Here as promised early this morning is the proof that voulnterism and cooperation between the city and neighborhoods can accomplish something good.

The sad part is without strict code enforcement, combined with the vigorous prosecution of offenders, and a renewed sense of pride in ownership at the street level, we can be sure that we will fill these dumpsters and double this number in the fall cleanup should they be available.

Take special notice of the one full of tires. Last evening just before dark this dumpster was less than half full.

This morning when I stopped by to take these pictures I was informed that the majority of those that filled it to over flowing (note those on the groud as well) came from a local repair shop that chose to abuse the city's good will rather than absorb the costs of disposing of them properly as most honest businessmen would have done.

One has to wonder if this individual is a rental property owner as well. For as I noted in my original post, many of the tires picked up in our alleys appeared to have come from a repair shop!

Cameras everyone!
