It was determined that it was not feasible to put a trash barrel at this location.

so i am left picking up trash!!

Pick it up and leave it on the front law of city hall. see how fast a trash barrel gets put at that location.

Very funny margaret! They placed a barrel on the opposite corner. Is that feasible?

I'm sitting here reading these comments and shaking my head. Can't put out a barrel? I guess we'd rather leave trash on the ground which encourages rats and other rodents to feed and reproduce....Doesn't sound very proactive to me.

Trash/leaves on the street is NOT picked up by the DPW but is swept by the street cleaning services. As for barrels, often barrels create rodent problems, etc. We will ask about putting a barrel at that location.

THANKS! I HOPE THE RODENTS DON'T include rats, possums, skunks, mice, raccoon's. would really appreciate a barrel. so wouldn't the kids! thanks!

Barrels create rodent problems, but trash on the ground doesn't?? Aren't barrels suppose to be lined with mint bags per city ordinance? Revere could use those solar powered compressor trash containers like Boston has, then if rodents get inside the trash, they just get squished. I'm sure there's a federal grant Revere could tap into to get barrels like those.

Thank you for reaching out to the City of Revere. We will address your issue as soon as possible.

Just call the WBZ I-Team. They love Revere stories. Same with WHDH.

Thank you for reaching out to the City of Revere. This issue has been closed.

i continue to pick up trash in this area.

Thank you for reaching out to the City of Revere. The Sanitation Department has ordered a City owned barrel to be placed at this location. It will be installed when delivery is made. Thank you.

thank you. is the owner of the lot going to clean the lot;, , if not, he needs to be ticketed

Taxpayer, The original request pertained to the placement of a barrel. If other issues arise, it would be best to open a new/different request because different departments handle different issues. If there is a private property issue it would be labeled as such and sent to the Inspectional Services Department to conduct an inspection and contact the property owner. In the future, if an issue should arise that pertains to the safety and well being of the public, it would be best to not utilize the city web sites and to contact the City of Revere Department of Public Works directly at 781-286-8149. Thank you for taking the time to make us aware of this issue.

Thank you!
