Report Details

AI-generated, reviewed by reporter

A grassy public field alongside Sheppard Avenue West contains extensive litter scattered throughout the vegetation and drainage channel, including white plastic bags and unidentified refuse with standing water pooling in the channel. The volume and distribution of debris indicates unauthorized dumping on public property, creating a visual blight and environmental hazard. Three litter bins are nearby with collection five times weekly.
