John here.
Jeff Butera of ABC Action News called Carolyn for an appointment to see the problems at 6003. His did a pretty good job of reporting the situation. He did a superior job of turning out Code nonEnforcement: The acting Deputy Mayor who has Code and the Area Supervisor for Code. We'll have more to say about them later.
For now, we'll note that the Code nonEnforcement guy told Carolyn several times that the birdbath, benches, and swing were personal taste and they could do nothing about them. I guess he is too important to have read the file or this blog before coming out. If he had done either he would have known that Carolyn has not complained about those things.
Butera also caught the notion that the sewage problem was only in July. In fact, of course, July was the third incident in a series that goes back nearly a year.
For now, the question is the one Carolyn posed: Why does it take a TV station to get Code nonEnforcement, which has been trashing about fecklessly for four years now, to (maybe, at last) do its job?
