Okay, this sucks. Guard dogs escaped from Scarano construction site and attack, @ Bond and Carroll. Police and community board unresponsive.

It's not being excessive to suggest the city should take an interest in construction site attack dogs that could kill someone before there is an injury. The power of the building permit--and its suspension or revocation is one of the few defenses the public has. It should be used, and the code should be revised to cover any number of threats including Construction Site Cujos.
