Dade County Commissioner Robert Goff is talking trash – and he doesn’t like the sound, or sight, of it.

The first dump appeared on Lookout Creek Road at the foot of Lookout Mountain several months ago, Goff said. County workers left a “No Dumping” sign in place after hauling debris away.

A second dump then appeared less than 100 yards from the first. Goff found names and an address in the garbage, but it turned out the mess was from a house that had been foreclosed upon and the mail was to the people who’d lost their home and left, he said.
