Residents at Indio housing complex concerned about improper trash maintenance

INDIO, Calif. (KESQ) - Residents of a housing complex in Indio are raising concerns over the lack of proper maintenance for the trash.

They say the accumulation of garbage at Sun Castle Condominiums on Aladdin Street is bringing unwelcome guests that include flies, rats, and cockroaches into their homes.

They also say a lack of security is a concern, with homeless people digging through the trash.

Residents are frustrated, saying the homeowners association and management of the complex are doing nothing about it.

One resident comments, "I've spoken with the HOA, with the community manager here, and she tells me the association doesn't have the money to fix it."

News Channel 3 reached out to the association responsible for the maintenance of the complex on Monday, and they said they were not able to respond that day. We will have an update as soon as the organization responds to the issue.
