Encampment at the old post office on Windward was abandoned. Only the trash lingers on until Sanitation picks it up and this is not on their watch.

Note: This story has been added onto since obtaining the MYLA311 submittal from Allan Parsons. Apparently, he has suspected this has an abandoned site since 15 Jan. Rick Swinger is counting the days that it will take Sanitation to get to site and clean it up.

So this is a great opportunity to use app MyLA311. This app works. Download app, take photo and follow instructions. Sanitation will be notified to pick it up. One can also send picture with location to the applicable senior lead officer. The senior lead will notify Sanitation directly and this will doubly verify the need. This information was provided by a senior lead officer as to how to get rid of garbage such as this.

Some time between Monday and last Friday the tarp was removed. The above picture shows the site abandoned with tarp removed. Previous photos of MYLA311 submittals could have indicated that the person was just away because it was all covered with a tarp. Hard telling how long the site has been abandoned.

As of Monday, the tarp was removed and Allan Parsons, who is on top of this, submitted the following to MTLA311 app. His January submittals are also shown.
