The garbage cans are filled with banana peels and other 1 fruit and vegetable wastes and are l left standing on the street corners during hot weather and cause an | offensive OdOr in the vicinity. The sewer near the Russell block is filled up with much waste and in dry weather this too causes an odor that is offensive.
