[StBernard] road home appointment

[Westley Annis]

Judy, I have come to the conclusion that they just don't care.  At least not

enough to do anything about it.  I have a large metal container, the kind 
that goes on top of a train, in the street in front of my house.  And people

are dumping roofing debris and also about 50 tires from trucks and cars are 
appearing.  Every day it is more and more. I think because it is a dead end 
street they just don't care enough to go to the trouble.  I have called URG 
and they pick up what they can but the other stuff I just call the 
complaints department.  I get someone who says they will turn in the 
complaint, but still nothing happens.  I am on top of it and I keep calling 
but still nothing.  Most of the time I get a recording that tells me to 
leave a message, they don't call back.  I'm pulling my hair out and wasting 
my time trying to get anything done there. I can't even start on this 
project of repairing this house until this stuff is gone.  It is in the way 
and limiting access to the house. I guess I will eventually be put on the 
involuntary demolish list because it looks so bad but I'm trying and it's 
beyond my contol at this point.  It is on the parish and they won't do their

part. It's very frustrating. I have even tried to hire my own person to move

this debris but they tell me there is nowhere to bring it.  Some have 
suggested I let them just bring it and dump it somewhere else on someone 
else's property.  I said no to that, not wanting to just pass it off to 
someone else as their problem.  That's not right.  The parish is not leaving

me much choice. I'm getting tired of the run around. It's been more than 
enough time and I have been patient enough. One or two families are now 
living on this street and I feel bad for them to have to live with this.  My

house would be one more that could be well on it's way to back to normal if 
they the parish didn't have my hands tied. I can't even cut the grass there 
because of all the debris that people keep dumping and then it's not getting

picked up. I'll ask one more time, can anyone help me also?
