Inspectors found rampant pest breeding grounds and wastewater, demanding full cleanup, odor control, and pest prevention measures — including washing truck tires and sealing waste containers. The fire, which took a week to extinguish and may have started during solar testing, has forced a citywide cleanup effort to restore safety and dignity to the neighborhood.
