@Ell Wood Senior. Here's how this is going to go down:
1. The City will acknowledge your complaint (done).
2. Then another City person will state that their equipment to fix the alley is being repaired.
3. Next the City will repost my comment with my personal email address (not sure why but they don't have anything better to do).
4. Finally, the City will close this request (they've done that with several other alley repair requests) hoping you don't notice.
5. Then the cycle begins again.
6. Do-loop, rinse and repeat. Good luck!

Bonoca, I've seen now how it is, thanks for your diligence, that's probably why the city is using your posts.
It's crazy to me that a city with so many alleys can't repair them due to equipment issues.
In regards to this particular one - I think a jack hammer and some repair asphalt could make a big difference, this is a PAVED alley - no need for any big grading machinery. This alley is a main flow street for the Carytown Association as it loops the east parking deck. They should get involved, their lawyers are all usually all over this alley like it was only there for them. Maybe I should contact them for results.
Hope everyone with a gravel alley issue (everyone?) keeps their car's safe.
