Resident says groundhogs and raccoons are overrunning community spaces; board asks for follow-up
Summary
A resident, Carnita Wilson, told the Board of Public Safety that groundhogs and raccoons are overrunning a community garden and abandoned houses in parts of the city; a committee member asked her to email for follow-up.
Carnita Wilson addressed the Board of Public Safety during public comment on May 11, saying groundhogs and raccoons are "overraning" several areas including the community garden on 22nd in Menifee and that animals are coming out from under houses and eating residents' vegetables.
"We are being overran by groundhogs," Wilson said. She said the problem included the golf course and abandoned houses where animals appear to have taken up residence.
A committee member asked Wilson to email him with further details and provided an offer to follow up by email. The board did not take formal action during the public comment period on pest control, but staff indicated they would accept follow-up information from the resident.
