Front yard is all dug up - does not look like utilities were marked. Is a permit needed to do this? If so, was one issued?

See case #205800. Deck was rebuilt and now it is in violation of setbacks. Your site only allows one picture to be uploaded. Attached is what the deck looked like before. You can drive by and see what is looks like now. When they rebuilt it they extended it almost all the way to the sidewalk, and lately it has been covered with a tent and the tenants use it to party outside in full view of everyone. This is ridiculous, but it is Brawley so it is not unexpected...
Trash left on front porch and in back yard. Previous citations repeatedly ignored. It's a mouse and rat haven, according to my pest exterminator.
The house appears to be abandoned and someone has broken open the front and rear doors. Someone has also broken the windshield of the abandoned car in the backyard. The accumulating trash suggests a squatter. The property needs a major cleanup and secure doors and windows.
Watched 2 homeless people shoot up heroin or god knows what outside the McDonald’s. Could we maybe do something about this? It is scary and unsafe.
There are several junky cars parked on the grass in the backyard of 703 W 7th Street. I believe this is an environmental hazard to the soil. If possible, please have these cars removed. Thank you.
The new art installation light display by the Mill on 300 w 10th st seems to be malfunctioning, or not working anymore
There is human feces in the alley behind JL Waters and Orbit Room. As an employee of JL, it is right by our dumpsters and makes it unpleasant to throw trash away.
Unprofessional demolition occurring. Dust and particles (asbestos?) flying everywhere. Once the City/County have given permission to demolish, is there an office that oversees the activity? Who checks for all the lead paint flakes that are released? The crew who did this looked Mennonite/Amish, but they might not be because they were using industrial equipment - and making a huge mess.
Fiber project cap missing and wire no longer buried. There's at least one other incident of visible wire a couple houses east in the ditch.
