Illegal dumping cameras: Help Identify two people

Remember when we said we were getting illegal dumping cameras? The neighborhood and the City are asking your help in identifying persons illegally dumping at 81st & Wabash at 2:38 pm on Friday, January 24th. Please see the link to pictures, below, to help identify them.

A series of seven images reveals a Dodge Ram pickup truck stopping on Wabash Avenue. Two men exited the vehicle and pulled picket fencing from the vehicle into the street. Image 0443 of the sequence is of sufficient resolution to allow a viewer to zoom in and see the faces of both individuals. The image 0443 is attached to this document along with a close-up from the image. All images can be viewed at http://www.kcmo.org/CKCMO/Depts/NeighborhoodAndCommunityServices/Preservation/IllegalDumping/Reporting/index.htm or http://tinyurl.com/6qj3lkd.

Anyone who can identify the individuals from the captured images is asked to contact Code Enforcement Officer Ryan Cushman by telephone at 816-719-0637 or by email at Ryan.Cushman@kcmo.org. Media outlets are asked to share the information and images with the public to assist in the identification of these individuals. Media with questions about this matter should contact Dennis Gagnon, City Communications Office, at 816-513-2659.

5th District Residents Meeting Feb. 4th

Cindy Circo and Michael Brooks invite you to the next 5th District Residents meeting, to be held this Saturday, Feburary 4th, from 10 am to 12 noon, at the Hillcrest Community Center, 10401 Hillcrest Road.

Private Water Line Insurance

Recently, some area homeowners received letters of notices from private insurance companies offering an insurance program that covers the cost to repair a break or leak in their water service lines. If you haven't already received a letter or notice, you may receive a similar letter in the future. The insurance coverage being offered would be a private agreement between the company and the individual property owner.

This is not a program sponsored by Kansas City, Missouri Water Services Department or the City of Kansas City. The City is not involved in and does not endorse any insurance for private water lines.

As a reminder, homeowners are responsible for the repair and maintenance of their water service lines as stated in City Ordinance Section 78-22, "The owner of the premises served shall maintain the water service against leakage from but not including the curb stop or fist shutoff valve to the premises served."

The Kansas City, Mo., Water Services Department maintains and operates water collection, processing and distribution systems, stormwater management and control systems, and waste water collection and processing systems for residential and business customers in Kansas City and for wholesale customers in the Kansas City region. Operation is funded entirely by fees charged to customers based on their use of products and services, not by taxes.
