A series of messages, on which I was copied, that came through my in-box today:

Subject: PRIORITY complaint!

We were notified that there is human waste outside the building at 555 North Doone Street. This may be a health issue.

Please keep me informed on the status of this complaint.

Thank you!

I will have an inspector visit the site and then contact the owner to clean up the mess.

Ed,
Please have an inspector take photos of the feces and any other visible violations.
