District Memorandum To: Scott Carroll, General Manager From: Isidro Gallardo, Ordinance Enforcement Officer Date: September 8, 2012 Subject: Ordinance Enforcement Report – August 2012
This report summarizes major points for three ordinance enforcement topics covering Scavenging, Graffiti, and Trash Container Enforcement. Scavenging: In the month of August, there were
no calls to the District HQs to report scavenging activity. There were several incidents I observed directly; the majority of the scavenging incidents listed below were not individuals
who are trying to make a business from recycling materials. In addition, General Manager Scott Carroll requested I make it a priority to patrol the alleys near Ford Rd and Bernard St.
Residents living in the area have complained of individuals consistently going through their trash bins. I have not observed any scavenging activity so far, but I will continue to monitor
the area and it will remain a priority. There was one citation issued in the month of August. Areas and times were scavenging was observed by the OEO: DATE TIME ADDRESSES Citation Issued
