Transcript:
410 and 442. Can you check conditions at 1713 Springfield Avenue, 1713 Springfield Avenue? That's a pediatric dental facility. They're calling regarding an unhoused male. Described this as late 40s, early 50s, black male, wearing a brown hoodie, black pants, and orange socks. He's sitting on the bench in front of the location. Received that, we're a route. Okay, received. She says he's continuously panhandling. She's personally spoken to him about it, and he's not complying to her requests to move on. Receive. 4-2 is central. You've got to have you this back. If you're just on the benchery, there's no paper, there's nothing to collect money, not pay or anything like that. Okay, received. One of the issues I had with the caller 442, maybe you can assist me, is that was her complaint. She seems to feel that bench is on her property. I interpreted it to be the bench belonging to the township along the curb line. Am I wrong? because she doesn't want him on the property there with her children going in and out for dental services. It's a public bench. It sounds like that.
