Summary of service requests
If you’ve reported an issue through Find It, Fix It App, the online web form, and calls to 311, it’s counted here. As our tools have become easier to use and the City becomes more responsive, we have seen an uptick in requests. This is the first step in a multi-phase effort to improve transparency and responsiveness. The City is currently working to integrate additional metrics—such as resolution times and customer satisfaction—to better understand how we’re meeting community expectations.
