KFIR Dumpster, owned and operated by the St. Saviour's developers, has been leaving their yellow bins in parking lanes of city streets for weeks without permits and filled with debris. Two of these locations were in the vicinity of Linden Hill Cemetery. One of them was sitting next to a bus stop on Stanhope Street which is used by students from Grover Cleveland High School. This site also sits just outside Grover Cleveland Park. Another dumpster location was on Woodward Avenue, near the main entrance to Linden Hill Cemetery. The Department of Transportation was notified about these violations and contacted the company on November 25th. Upon follow up inspection 3 days later, the dumpsters had been removed. If you see these dumpsters parked anywhere in the area, please call us at (718) 651-5865.
