PUBLIC COMMENT
A resident from W. St. Elmo Street reported that the neighborhood is still dealing with a rat problem originating from an infested house. (Complaints about this problem were reported to the Supervisors in July and August). Residents reported that they’ve recorded pictures and videos of the rats and one homeowner announced that RidEt has installed 4 bait stations in their backyard and, so far, has paid $600 for extermination services. Residents reported that they’ve made repeated calls to the Zoning Officer and all have been ignored.
