According to the health department, the site contains an accumulation of waste materials, including discarded furniture, appliances, construction debris, and other items. Residents have reported foul odors, insects, and rodents associated with the dumping site. “The health and safety of our community is our top priority,” said Dr. Karen Smith, Director of the Sandusky Health Department. “We have taken immediate action to investigate the matter and initiate cleanup efforts.” The health department has issued a cease-and-desist order to the property owner, requiring them to remove the waste materials and restore the site to its original condition.

A team of environmental contractors has been hired to begin the cleanup process, which is expected to take several days. The department will be monitoring the progress of the cleanup and ensuring that the site is properly restored. “We understand the concerns of our residents and we are committed to resolving this issue promptly and effectively,” added Dr. Smith. “We encourage anyone with information about illegal dumping to contact the health department.” Residents are reminded that illegal dumping is a serious offense that poses significant health and environmental risks. The health department urges the community to properly dispose of waste materials at designated disposal sites or through licensed waste haulers.
