Can some one give a time that this is happening.
I will send to the Health Department this way they may be able to inform them that feeding the pigeons aren't allowed.

This happens daily during the daytime. People keep throwing food at the corner of the empty lot and pigeons are either feeding on the ground or up on the wires.
I don't understand why this issue was closed when it's not resolved.

Building & Streets - Theresa assigned this issue to HHS - O'Diaz: Manager of Public Health Investigators

Can we have an Inspector to this area in question

I found a sign on Hopkins Avenue between Central Avenue and Oakland Avenue behind Public School 6 that is very appropriate for the location I have mentioned above (Hopkins and Collard), which is raided by flock of pigeons every day. I am uploading a photo of the sign here. Please post a similar sign in languages mentioned above as I see most people feeding pigeons are of Indian origin.

Spoke to complainant gave him the number for public works in regards to putting up a sign to deter feeding

Thanks for giving me the number to call Public Works. Does that mean the RRC is not capable and does not want to follow up any more? Also. they are quick to close out the issue without resolving the issue! When I called the RRC, I was told "No need to call Public Works. We will send a person to catch feeders. I will try to put up a sign."
Is it that difficult to post a sign like the one I posted above? Come on folks, please be responsible and accountable.

Reopened to reassign.

This issue was recategorized from Service Request Not Listed to Traffic and Parking signage/signal issue.

John assigned this issue to Traffic – Jennifer C

Sent to Building & Streets to have the sign posted in the area of Collard & Hopkins Ave. picture of sign was emailed to Cynthia from Building & Streets.

Buildings and Streets-Cynthia assigned this issue to Building & Streets - Greg

Division of Buildings and Street Maintenance will investigate.

That is too healthy for us!

Let's wait up here patiently until the real lunch arrives!

with out evidence and catching the person doing the feeding our division can not give out warning or summonses for the person committing the act of violation for the feeding of pigeons. case closed until more information as to whom is doing the feeding.

Here is another official eager to close out the issue bringing up an excuse..
I am appalled at the indifference demonstrated by the authorities in preventing an act as simple as feeding pigeons. Are you saying the situation is acceptable? or is there an ulterior motive? All you have to do is put up a No Feeding sign as shown above and, only later, consider taking action. The No Feeding sign is posted at a location where there is not a single bird, whereas there is no sign at this location (Hopkins and Collard) where hundreds of birds hangout!
I have requested feeders, time and again, not to feed birds. All verbal talk is is moot until an official sign is posted.
We know people feed birds. We also know birds hang out there because of food. What else do you need to prevent feeders? Why skip posting the sign and jump to summons?
If you are really interested in spotting feeders, you need to be patient and be stationed at the location under cover.
I appreciate your cooperation in stopping the feeding.

Thank you.

I just wanted to add to this chain: the feedings have now caused RAT PROBLEMS THIS YEAR in the area. they are running around in grass area where the pigeons are just at night when they are gone. I never had issues with rats in my years here or downtown! THIS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED. And there needs to be a safe vermicide placed in this area or something (thats safe for dogs and kids because sometime they enter in to play here). Furthermore, I'm 100% sure the rats are because of the building/lot across the street that was demo-ed and the vermicide wasn't properly put down prior to demolition to prevent the move of the vermin. I'm sorry but to be fair the city really does need to be held accountable for not preventing the problem from the get-go at demo.

hi jumping in here again? any movement on this. I actually just saw a family feeding the pigeons this morning which i think was innocent considering they were with their child, but the lady walking away in the background actually just dumped most of what you see on the ground. we really need to curb this issue please help prevent this from happening. its actually now damaging our property because pigeons are now on all the roofs of houses soiling. now its not just the rats that are a problem.

Good Afternoon, I have followed up with Building and Streets requesting an update on the signage status. I will also forward this to Sanitation to investigate the matter of trash dumping. Thank You

Thank you for reporting an issue to the City of Jersey City. We will investigate.

Sanitation inspected the location and found no cause for action at time of inspection for trash. Also Building and Streets has informed me that signs are posted there. If you do see someone feeding the pigeons, please contact 201-547-6800 to report the concern to Health Department.

Thanks, please do not close this as for sure I'll be able to take photos of people dumping food here. It happens multiple days a week. Not sure what they're missing.

Calling won’t make a difference though because the people literally walk buy and dump an entire back a food scraps or crumbs. People have dropped off rotting whole watermelons. I just caught 2 people showing up with a plastic bag to dump there. It’s nutty that this isn’t considered a wild life and health issue. I’ll post an image once I’m on my computer

Watermelon and Pile of wood

Closeup of watermelon and other trash

Trash across from the pigeons corner - Hopkins Avenue

as promised, here's the picture people that just dumped a trash bag of food on the ground. this is occurs several times a day. i have idea how the health department didn't see anything when they inspected. and this is shot around 7/730pm so most the pigeons are gone around this time the flock is more like 100-200 birds most days.

trash around this area

pieces of watermelon tossed for the birds

more trash

proof that people come here with plastic bags of crumbs and leftovers to feed pigeons. they just stuff their plastic bags into the fence after dumping the food.

more rubbish all around the fence

random pillow (again same fenced area)

ill stop after this one this is just a portion of what's dumped around here so it's hard for me to understand that any inspector wouldn't notice an issue :\

I have requested sanitation to view your images and have a 2nd look at the sight.

Really appreciate it. Thank you.

inspector Gerry McCann he reported that when he went up to the property and cleaned up the food for the pigeons. he also states that the items that are in these pictures was cleaned up by one of the dpw crews. Mr. McCann also states that is nearly impossible to catch anyone dumping trash or putting out food for the birds unless there is a monitor on the site all the time and the city does not have monitors for this task, by the time someone calls to report someone doing this and the time it takes to get someone there to catch them they are gone.
Mr. McCann also states that putting up a sign like the one pictured most likely will not stop people from doing it.

Shashi, please call me at 201-547-4900 if you have any questions on the above comments.

I appreciate your posting No Pigeon Feeding signs, But the signs are not at the location where people feed the pigeons. Instead, they are posted on Collard Street below Parking signs where they are completely not noticed.
Also, thanks for posting signs on the fence educating feeders that it is a health hazard and requesting them not to feed pigeons. Obviously, it's not working as I just saw at least a 1,000 birds on the ground and wires!
Can you please post official signs (citing N.J.A.C. and penalty amount) at the location in question on separate poles, not mixed with other signs, so they are conspicuous.
Thanks very much for your assistance.
