Resident tells board to step up cleanup at trailer parks; says dumpsters and new trailer will help
Summary
Resident Adam Calico asked the board to address recurring trash and abandoned trailers at several trailer parks, saying crews had cleaned recently and that a 21-yard dumpster and a new dump trailer are expected to help.
Adam Calico told the board he had concerns about trash pickup at several trailer parks and described recent cleanup work. He said the city and volunteers had removed debris and that Texas Pride will deliver 12- to 15-yard dumpsters; he also said he purchased a $12,000 dump trailer to assist ongoing cleanup.
Calico described specific trouble spots (rear lots with abandoned trailers and copper theft) and said some units have been lost because of fees and vandalism. Board members and staff asked follow-up questions; Calico said the worst areas had been addressed and expected a more permanent dumpster solution within days.
The chair thanked Calico for the update; no formal board action was recorded during the meeting.
