Clear the illegally dumped debris from an alley off Willis Avenue block

The documented dump off Willis Avenue block needs an actual haul-away, not just a report. Clearing ordinary bulk debris (furniture, tires, construction scrap, yard waste) opens the alley back up and stops it from growing into a bigger pile. Standard: ISA arboriculture BMPs + municipal urban-forestry standards; USFS i-Tree. Proof: before/after photos + sorted-debris photos + disposal/weigh-in record + GPS Method (ISA arboriculture BMPs + municipal urban-forestry standards; USFS i-Tree.): 1. Confirm against the filed report that nothing on-site looks chemical, medical, or otherwise hazardous before starting; if anything new looks suspect, stop and re-flag it instead of touching it. 2. Sort the ordinary bulk debris (furniture, tires, construction scrap, yard waste) into separated piles for pickup/recycling. 3. Load and haul the sorted debris to the scheduled bulk-pickup point or transfer station. 4. Photograph the cleared alley from the same vantage as the report photos and log the weight/volume removed. Done when: before/after photos + sorted-debris photos + disposal/weigh-in record + GPS

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: i-Tree canopy / street-tree inventory

Bring

• GPS phone
• DBH tape or measuring tape
• tree ID reference
• camera
• hi-vis vest

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor; record a GPS waypoint at each tree.
2. 2. Photograph each surveyed tree.
3. 3. Record species (best estimate), condition class (good/fair/poor/dead), and DBH (diameter at breast height).
4. 4. Count vacant planting sites.
5. 5. Enter the per-tree records, vacant-site count, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Dead or hazardous tree observed -> flag for the responsible agency (no removal by surveyor).
• High vacant-site count -> recommend a planting plan for the corridor.

What counts as done

• Per-tree species + condition + DBH recorded
• Vacant planting sites counted
• GPS waypoint per tree
• Photo per surveyed tree

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
