Description

Homeless man started collecting things there on 12/14 and it is now become a common dumping ground. The sidewalk is completely blocked. At night he’ll put orange cones in the right lane to extend the trash into the street, causing cars to swerve out of the way. It caused an accident just before Christmas where a truck crashed into the neighbors garage avoiding to hit the trash/tent. 311 has been called and cops have helped move trash off the street but it’s getting worse. He has a garden hose that goes into his tent that he urinates in that goes out to the street.

The trailer full of trash belongs to another man who lives out of his blue van on the street. When the truck crashed into the garage swerving around the trash filled street, it clipped the trailer making it immobile. The guy went and bought a new trailer which you can see opposite of the street when driving. The original trailer had ZERO trash, and now you can see its overfilled from random people and the homeless guy continuously dumping in it every day.
