  If you look at thr postings for "The Fixer", Toronto, you will see that some residents are planting flowerbeds in potholes to draw attention to the pothole issue.

Pothole and road damage unrepaired Acknowledged

Prospect St. northbound, in front of Rosenkranz Hall, New Haven, Connecticut - Prospect Hill

This section Of Prospect St. remains a mess. Although the pothole was filled in, it was not done properly, and the center caved in two days later! (Really, DPW..... that's the best you can do?) Additionally, 10 feet earlier in the road is another series of growing potholes, wreaking havoc. I must now replace all four tires on my car after being blind-sided by this lack of city upkeep.

burned out street light - pole #3835 on Autumn Street Closed

27 Autumn Street New Haven, CT - Prospect Hill

The street light on pole #3835 is burned out. If it is on when you go to repair it, don't be fooled - it will go off again. It is off/burned out 95% of the time.

  I've seen that street light go on and then turn off, in a matter of seconds.. It might be an electrical issue

Gigantic Pothole Acknowledged

115 Prospect Street - Prospect Hill

This huge pothole in the northbound lane of Prospect Street has been here for over a month, right in front of Rosenkranz Hall. It's only getting bigger. Cars have to swerve to avoid it.

  Here's a photo from June 8, 2013. Cars bounce and swerve whenever they go over it.

  I second MM's observation. It looks like someone attempted to fix the pothole this last week, but the heavy rains have washed all the gravel away. As of June 15, 2013 the pothole is deeper than ever! Please fix it right!

Street cleaning Acknowledged

106-108 Starr Street New Haven, Connecticut - Prospect Hill

Starr street has not been cleaned in a while. Across from 106 on the sidewalk there is a broken TV that needs removal.

  Thank you for removing the broken TV from the street. However, the sweep must have missed Starr street as the grass areas between the sidewalk and road are still full of trash. Please clean Starr street.

  LCI, there is much trash in this location on the grass between the sidewalk and the road. I asked the trash collectors who can I talk to to get this cleaned up, and they told me that the property owner is responsible to clean up these sections of the street. I think that the city owns the empty lots in the section which host the most trash. LCI, please acknowledge.

Stop sign ineffective and mostly ignored. Please enforce. Open

284 Highland Street New Haven, Connecticut - Prospect Hill

This intersection has seen a recent accident involving a driver not obeying the stop sign and driving over a child. Long term the intersection requires traffic signals. Until then, please post a police officer to enforce the stop sign.

  In 5 minutes this morning I counted 9 drivers running the stop sign and 5 making it. Please enforce stop sign.

Flooding Open

Corern Of Sachem And Whitney - Prospect Hill

The northwest corner of Sachem and Whitney floods with water even in moderate rain -- the storm drain on the Whitney Avenue side of the corner doesn't seem to be working. When the water backs up, people trying to cross Sachem have to walk up Sachem to a point where the water is close enough to the curb to get across without wading.

  It's true. Even with just a few minutes of moderate rain it becomes a small pond. Pedestrians cannot get across, cyclists are forced to swerve out into the other lane, and anyone on the sidewalk gets drenched by passing cars. It really does need to be looked into.

  Reopening due to the fact that this issue has not been fixed, if anything it has got much worse. City Hall, and mayoral canditates, need to know that this issue is a major one for New Haveners and will not be ignored.

  I will be closing dirt bike/ATV complaints that pre-date the conclusion of the police undercover operation (see www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/9_arrested_in_dirt_bike_sting/). I do not expect the dirt bike/ATV issue to be completely solved, but it will be helpful to policing efforts to distinguish new reports from those before this recent operation.
  
  Please open up new SCF issues as dirt bike/ATV issues re-occur.

Spring is here and so are back the bands of young men doing wheelies driving down sidewalks and ignoring stop signs. It is only a matter of time before a passer by gets seriously hurt.

Please remove boards and fix safety hazard Open

539 Winchester Avenue New Haven, Connecticut - Prospect Hill

There are several ugly wooden boards on this lot. They probably are there to cover some sort of safety hazard. One of them is already broken, creating a current hazard. Please fix safety hazards and remove all boards.
