There’s an app called MyLA311 where you can report potholes, objects dumped on the curb and other various small fixes that you think the city have to take care of. A few weeks ago I reported the back alley leading up to our garage. We call it “pothole heaven” as it is pretty severe. I didn’t think they would come out and fix it anytime soon as they pretty much have to resurface the whole street, it’s not just a single pothole that needs to be filled. I still thought I should report it though, so at least they are aware of it. They still haven’t fixed it, and I don’t know if they ever will.
I try to walk home from work whenever I have a chance. I walk on South Robertson Blvd, and it’s filthy. This old palm tree has been laying on the side of the curb for over a year and the last few days I’ve been thinking to myself that I should report it through the app.
I pinged them yesterday and today, 24 hours later, the tree was picked up! It works! That made my day.
