Dunes Neighborhood Residents and Property Owners,
At our last Neighborhood Watch meeting held on October 13, 2009, Officer Fay introduced two guests representing the City of Myrtle Beach – Bruce Boulineau, Director of Construction Services and Steve “Doc” Rehm, Sewer Superintendent. Bruce and Steve addressed a number of issues and problems which our neighborhood has experienced and informed us of the resources for remedy that are available through our city services departments.
We have been hearing numerous complaints regarding trash and yard debris being deposited on private lots and public common areas that are not owned by the individuals and lawn maintenance contractors who are generating the waste. The Code of Ordinances for the City of Myrtle Beach clearly states:
“No garbage, refuse, abandoned junk or other offensive material shall be dumped, thrown or allowed to remain on any lot or space within the city limits.”
It is illegal to dump your yard debris on property that does not belong to you and any individual who is found violating this ordinance will be subject to a fine!
Several areas in the Dunes have been especially problematic, as evidenced by numerous complaints from residents. They include the common areas in Dogwood Circle, Pine Circle, TwinOak Court, and “The Park” triangle at Wildwood Dunes Trail and Club Drive. The vacant lot at 301Kings Circle and vacant lots at the south end of Cove Drive are being used as disposal sites on a regular basis.
Please be considerate of your neighbors. Your trash and yard debris should be placed on yourown property to be picked up by City sanitation on Thursdays. Inform your lawn maintenance contractors to dispose of yard debris properly!
If anyone should witness the illegal disposal of debris, please report the abuse to:
City of Myrtle Beach
