During the public-comment period of the Alisal Union School District Board meeting, resident Anita Toy said a dumpster and a bright pole placed next to a newly built pre‑K school at 1081 Park Conn Dock Drive are disrupting her home.
"It's next to my friend. It's really close to my kitchen, my bathroom, my bedroom, and then they put a big light pole. It's really bright in my backyard," Toy said, identifying her address as 1523 Park Street. She said the dumpster is visible from her kitchen and that the condition "really affect[s] my life."
Toy said she contacted the school and the superintendent's office and was told the site was "state approved," but that when she contacted the state she was told the matter was under the school district's authority. "I don't know what should I do," she said, asking the board to move the dumpster away from her backyard fence.
The record shows no immediate board action or staff response recorded during the meeting. The resident's comments were part of the two-minute public-comment period; the district did not provide a timeline or follow-up direction on the record at that time.
