No Dumping and No Littering Signs (North Street and Chatanika Avenue)
At a glance
Based on the official minutes and auto-generated captions; names and details may be misheard.
- What: two sign requests to curb illegal dumping: "No Littering" signs on North St. along the Rural Cemetery and Crematory property line near 180 Grove St. (Satya B. Mitra), and "No Dumping" signs listing fine amounts at the end of Chatanika Ave. where it borders Cascade Park (Jose A. Rivera, for a resident).
- Where it stands: both recommended for approval 3-0 on 2026-07-21 and adopted by the City Council 9-0 on 2026-08-18.
- Next: DPW installs the signs; ownership of the sites is unresolved.
Discussion
- Jay Mello suggested referring both to the Veterans, Memorials, Parks and Recreation committee, since the sites may belong to Parks, Recreation and Cemetery.
- On North St. the chair and clerk thought Rural Cemetery is private and Mitra said the cemetery is only a landmark for the road; the clerk said no-littering signs have always come to Public Works.
- For Chatanika Ave., John K. Westerling said DPW can find a way to put signs up if the committee wishes.
