Poop!

(at our house?)

So we apparently just got cited for poop in front of the house:

The text of the Details of Violation section reads:

At t/d/o I did observe dog feces, glass bottles, candy wrappers, soda cans, and other assorted debris scattered about sidewalk in full public view During 8am to 9am Routing time
The back of the document contains this paragraph:
TO DENY THE VIOLATION OR PRESENT A DEFENSE:

Choose either of the two methods listed below:

  1. APPEAR IN PERSON, …
  2. APPLY FOR ADJUDICATION BY MAIL in many cases you may present a defenser by mail. Cases most suitable for mail adjudication are those where the defense is supported by documentary evidence (such as deed, permit, license, etc.) NOTE: Some cases may not be suitable for adjudication by mail. If such a determination is made, your evidence will be returned and the matter rescheduled for a live hearing. Send a written statement of facts sworn to, before a Notary Public with all documents you wish to have considered to:
    ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL BOARD
    MAIL ADJUDICATION UNIT
    66 John Strreet, 10th Floor
    New York, N.Y. 10038
    Tel. 212-361-1400
As documentary evidence, i submit that there is no dog feces in our yard or on our sidewalk, though there is a significant amount of the stuff in the next-door neighbor's yard. Please excuse the poor resolution of the photos. Mouse over the photos for commentary.
