Press release from the City of Dallas:

“We care about all our residents,” said Fabian Ramirez, Supervisor III Nuisance Abatement, Department of Code Compliance. “This initiative will not only help people who are helping others, but will also keep Dallas clean.”

Although providing food to the unsheltered population is a charitable act, street feeding may lead to a higher level of debris in the roadways and potential traffic.

Trash bins are placed in the locations below:
– 1500 Martin Luther King Boulevard
– 1700 Cadiz Street
– 1502 Canton (Both Star Parking Lots)
– Coriscana Street and South Ervay Street
– Marilla Street and Canton Street
