What is the nature of the problem: [There is all kinds of trash/debris outside and inside of vacant lot. Can this issue be addressed.]

Hello - a homeless person left belongings in the lot next to our apartment. We have already had a needle pickup, and now need the additional items removed (clothes, bag, alcohol bottles, etc.). The lot is located right next to the building at 18 wiget st. thank you very much for your assistance. |

What is the nature of the problem: [Next 95 Robey Street there is a vacant Lot that is filled with trash/debris & overgrown grass/weeds.]

My request pertains to the empty lot in between #3 Alpine Street and #9 Alpine Street. Often times there is some trash visible to the street, but the real issue is the pile up of trash along the back fence of the property (not visible from the street) and uncontrolled growth of brush among the trash. This is providing an environment for rats that are a nuisance for myself and my neighbors. My request is that the property owner remove the trash from the back fence and keep the brush reasonably trimmed. |

I have to bring a very serious public health and environmental issue to your attention that I noticed at our neighboring property at 80 Corey Rd., which is a 3-family owned by an absentee landlord. Since I moved into my condo at 7 Cummings Rd. in 2021, there have been two abandoned and rusting cars in the back of this problem property, which appear to be leaking oil, chemicals, and gasoline contamination into the soil. There are also lots of open and overflowing trash bins, trash bags and debris around the cars (see photos attached), and we have seen many rats on their property running onto our property. These rats have actually caused more than $4,000 in damage to our cars in the parking lot and I've spoken with colleagues at Harvard Medical School (where I work) about the diseases carried by rats, which can be a very serious public health issue. Please help us with this issue and take any action necessary to remove these abandoned vehicles and overflowing trash bins, and to kill and repel the rats coming from the problem property at 80 Corey Rd. |

What is the nature of the problem: [Rats being seen at this location in and around the area. Constituent requests inspectors assistance.]

This lot looks like a jungle. There are very large rats running in and out of this lot. This lot has a very bad smell coming from it like the dead things in there. We keep asking for this lot to be cleaned. There a lot of little children playing on this street. This is not healthy or safe for all of us on the street. This lot looks like a lot in A rural area in the country not a lot in the middle of the city of Boston |
