If the original residents of Germantown were able to see the condition of the alleys in the neighborhood today, they would surely be disgusted. I walk the alleyways often with my dog on her daily walks. There are overturned trash receptacles, old furniture, old tires, weeds that are out of control, overgrown shrubbery, used condums, etc. 

Is there anything that can be done to improve this situation?  Calling Metro Call to complain is not helpful.
