Sidewalk on Margaret Drive near Beardsley Road has bushes grown over it. The bushes have actually grown into the road. They need to be cut back.

That said, it is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain this, even when it grows over the sidewalk and into the road.

I monitor these pages to try and provide helpful information to people like yourself who think that once they text a few words miracles happen. I do it to point people in the right direction and attempt to help them get the service they need. But I am always amazed by people like you who will post again months later when they could've cured the matter with a simple phone call.
I don't mean to be rude to you I just thought it was silly that you kept posting this here and didn't bother to call Town hall. I find it amazing that people seem to have forgotten how to use a telephone.
SeeClickFix is a private website. It is not a government run service. I can understand your confusion since the City of New Haven is a licensed user of SeeClickFix and it is integrated in their dispatch system.
If you call your alders maybe you should suggest to them that they pay to become a member of SeeClickFix so that they may acknowledge and then act on complaints posted online. But Shelton is not known for spending money and the quality and level of their technology is abysmal. Most users in City Hall are still running windows XP. Their CAMA system is always down so that you can't get property information online. The reason for this is that their software is DOS based and hasn't been updated since Y2K!
I was just trying to be helpful and may be a little bit humorous. Your tolerance for humor seems pretty thin skinned.
So, if you want this fixed I suggest in all seriousness that you pick up the telephone. Waiting for public works to look at SeeClickFix will be a very, very, very long wait. Also, it is not the city's problem. It is your neighbor's responsibility to reign in their untrimmed bush.
Good Luck! I hope you can convince the city to sign-on for this service. It would be of great benefit to the residents and in the end would save the city much time and money.
