  This practice has been going on for a very long time. Their response is "You can always come down and appeal it" Which for most people is very hard to do (time and work wise) and the city knows that!

  Thanks for the post. The Parking Meter Division will be notified to inspect this parking meter and make repairs if needed.
  
  If a meter is not working properly, you need to park at a different one, otherwise you will get a ticket, as it is a city ordinance. If you came to our office to contest a ticket, we would direct you to one of two terminals set up to allow you to do so online.
  You can also contest the ticket online by going to our website via this link: http://duncan.imageenforcement.com/AdminReviewSites/NewHavenReview

  If the parking meter is not working properly, YOU NEED TO FIX IT! (or at the very least put an official bag on it to let motorists know it isn't working.) It's hard enough to find a parking space, but when one is found and a person takes the time to park, get out, attempt to pay a broken meter only to find out it is out of order, and then be expected to pull away to find another space is just plain rude and inexcusable. If this is a city ordinance, then this ordinance needs TO BE CHANGED. To not do so is an insult to citizens and should cast shame on all involved in creating this illogical, money-grubbing ordinance. To knowingly give out tickets to motorists at meters that are known to be out of order is unconscionable and down right illegal. FIX THIS HORRIBLE PRACTICE!

  It usually is supposed to trigger the solar powered warning lights, but only one button works.

Replace parking meters Acknowledged

370 Temple St New Haven, Connecticut - Downtown

The parking meters on Temple between Grove and Trumbull have not been converted to the new ones that will take credit cards and I can no longer charge my old parking card.

  The department is ordering additional credit-card accepting parking meters for install this year and installing them at various locations throughout the city. Eventually, all will be changed over to credit-card accepting meters. Thanks for the post.

Decorative stone in disarray Open

20-30 Howe Street New Haven, CT 06510, USA - Dixwell

I don't know if this is yale or new haven, but our company has been playing a game - we keep checking to see how long these large stones that came off of a decorative planter in a median will stay lying in disarray. It has gone beyond being entertaining and is just a little sad that something so prominent can just go and go and go..just sitting there. Hope someone fixes this or that bruce Alexander gets these alerts.

  Very sad, I know...those have been like that for YEARS. I believe there is already a See-Click-Fix on the issue (obviously has been ignored.) In fact, I myself have an issue (2 actually, but of the same issue) that has been ignored for almost 2 1/2 (regarding tree trimming.) I hear that See-Click-Fix works for many communities, but my experience with it has left me rather skeptical. There are literally THOUSANDS of open issues not responded to or acted upon. My guess is it's one of those who-you-know deals or they take on the easier to handle tasks, and ignore the majority or more difficult reports. Just my 2 cents. Either way, I voted (again) to have this issue fixed. Good luck with it!

  I agree.
  I saw them repairing the adjacent Broadway parking lot fence last week and thought/hoped his would be repaired, too.

  So you just sit back and wait to see if it gets done, see that it's not and then post on SCF to see if it gets done. SCF is great because it gives a voice to point out what needs fixed in the city. Take the next step. Make some phone calls, look into who maintains these planters. Talk to the alder. Then follow up with your efforts on this post so you can show others how being proactive - and using SCF to channel that effort - can produce results.

Rotary circle median heavily damaged Open

Howe And Whalley New Haven, CT - Dixwell

This rotary has been badly damaged by a car accident awhile back. The cement planting enclosure is damaged and strewn all over the median, and impeding pedestrians walking through rotary. In addition, this reflects poorly on our fine city to the many visitors traffic the area (Marriott nearby, Broadway shopping, Yale gym nearby).

  It's a shame that this rotary hasn't been fixed. It's just a few hours of man-power and some grout.

bus-schedule sign leaves reader hanging into busy street Open

Corner Of Chapel And York New Haven, Connecticut - Yale University Campus

This is re: the bus stop on Chapel, across from the Yale Rep. To the right of the shelters is a 4-sided pillar with the bus schedules. Between the positioning of the pillar, and the newspaper boxes crowded in, you have to virtually stand on Chapel Street to read all the schedules. The pillar should be moved. It's just not safe, especially at a busy corner.

  Remember, you could be the driver who nails some aspiring bus rider.
  Why have your schedule interrupted?
