Gotta keep after them
Please, keep calling 311 or Ald Foulke's office when you see graffitti.....especially the gang stuff.
Also, when will they fix the lights on Marquette park's drive, at the west end of the park just past the playground?? Been out since January. Keep calling & complaining, the volume of calls will get results.

From New Bike Racks - where did they come from?:
"Just curious about the new bike racks you see through Lakeview. They are cool colors and in the shape of a bike. I like them and just wondering if they were purchased by the city or some how locally. Any comments would be helpful?"
Respond to this neighbor →

Yes. We can't wait for someone else to do what needs to be done. & don't worry about hoodlums finding out who called 311.
They can't find out simple requests for service.
