Impede Or Cause Unsafe Road Conditions. After Consultation With Sgt Adam Will, EPD, It Was
Determined That Due To The Fact The Dumpster Would Have To Be Place IN A Lane Of Traffic, And
Since There Was Not Parking Available On That Street, That This Would Cause An Unsafe Situation
Where Individuals Would Be Forced To Go Around The Dumpster Into Oncoming Traffic To Avoid The
Dumpsters. Therefore, The Safety Board Administrator Did NOT Issue The Dumpster Permit. Attempt
To Reach Applicant By Phone And Email Were Unsuccessful.
