Betty McClung, 1150 Cleveland Street, neighbor of the Escobedos, reported ongoing problems, but acknowledged some improvement in the last 2 -1/2 weeks; described her problems with cats coming into her yard, and that the Escobedos deny keeping cats; that the large number of cars at the one address deprives other neighbors of use of space on the street for parking; that a Neighborhood Boards representative has interceded to attempt to resolve conflicts, but that there has been no cooperation, and described various acts of vandalism by unknown persons.
