Gripevine

December 11, 2019 By whvoice

Residents are dumping trash in the area near the I-95 bridge on Stevens Avenue. City crews were called in to take care of the problem, which is ongoing.

Dear Gripe Vine Readers:

I have received complaints concerning this illegal dumping and have sent them out to the affected councilmen. No results: I thought I would like you to read the following  notes and look at these photos.

Dear  Eleanore Turkington:

This is what Stevens Ave near the VA looks like quite frequently. Unfortunately it is private property without any lighting or fence to deter It from happening.

I would like to thank the public works crew that cleaned all that trash, furniture, multiple sets of tires up on Saturday Nov 30th! They did a great job! So thanks!  

Stevens Avenue Resident

My thanks to the Public Works Department and a special note to the dumpers who leave their trash here- Please keep this neighborhood clean!

Ed. Note: Eleanore Turkington was under the weather last week, and sent this over as her column. We hope she feels better by the time this hits the streets.
