Pulse letters for June 20

Given the number of Coyote sightings and attacks on Villagers’ pets, I recommend that Public Safety officers respond to coyote calls carrying coyote repellent spray and officers be trained in using it.

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I walked into our garbage shed on Galloway Dr. in the Village Highlands. Appalled was more my reaction at the total mess someone left in both bins, on the floor between the bins, and at the ends by the door.   

The person, or persons, obviously cleaned out a condo or house and dumped everything under the sun in our shed. A pillow in the aluminum can recycling, two carpets between the bins, assorted buckets, flower pots, mops, brooms and cardboard boxes, not broken down just dumped, to list just a few. The recycling bin held the rest of the garbage you couldn’t get into the green bin or left on the floor.

I don’t know if you are residents or someone hired to clean out, but I hope to never see a mess like this again in our shed. Just because there are garbage bins available we are not a dumping ground for clean out and clean up. Read the signs, people.
