We have several issues which need addressing we need to address the rodent issue specifically on Moody Street and the surrounding neighborhoods.  We are telling neighbors they must have trash barrels with lids and yet on Moody street  the  trash cans, they are the older open style. It feels like the city is telling residents “Do as I say not as I do”.   We should be leading by example.  The city should also investigate obtaining a grant to have restaurant food scraps picked up daily for composting. Keeping as much food waste out of dumpsters will help towards reducing the rat population.
