  • City crews are continuing a second day of clearing mountains of debris from a Fairfax neighborhood home known as “Trash House” on Thursday. Neighbors said they’ve been complaining about the odorous plastic trash bags piled high in front of the home in the 600 block of North Martel Avenue for months but officials had not taken action.
    However, one day after KTLA brought attention to the issue, local Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky said her team would work "with urgency" to resolve the issue. Sanitation workers, some wearing hazmat suits, spent all day removing tons of debris from the home. Many objects were found buried under the piles of rubbish including a vehicle - an old Toyota Celica.
    KTLA's Kimberly Cheng reports on April 4, 2024.

He does need a social worker & some guidance & life care, And there was video footage of all that getting started today too.

    I had a similar problem with a neighbour...unregistered cars sitting for years in the front driveway, piles of garbage piled around the front door, the back yard filled with junk, broken power tools, an old rowboat, etc. It took several calls to the City before they'd take action. They did explain that there is a procedure they have to follow including confirmation from the city solicitor and repeated requests that the property owner clean it up. Finally they took action. No idea how bad the inside of the residence is but it has to be as bad or worse than the yard. The garage is falling apart and is packed solid with old family furniture etc. The real breakdown occurs within the city bureaucracy which has a set of procedures they have to follow before they can "strong-arm" the property owner into accepting the right of the city to clean up the mess and have the homeowner pay for the work. Unfortunately, all too often, the file gets put on the bottom of the "I don't want to deal with this today" pile on the desks of those in the paper path. And, of course, there is the issue of the mental health of the property owner and that's a whole 'nuther ball o wax.

Hut 2,3,4, hut, 2,3,4,. But the day after the election they're back in their hole passing the buck. I used to tell the customers, it's election year call the mayor directly. 😅😅
