Neighborhood request

Greater Hobby Area: 118 service requests past the City's deadline

To
Council Member Joaquin Martinez, District I
From
Neighbors of Greater Hobby Area

Dear Council Member Joaquin Martinez,

We are residents of Greater Hobby Area in District I. As of Sep 27, 2026, 118 City service requests in our neighborhood are open past the City's own deadline, and 34 have waited more than a year. From Aug 2024 to Aug 2025, the City missed its deadline on 36% of requests here (about 33% would be typical for this mix of problems).

Neighbors voted on what matters most:

  1. 01

    Almeda Genoa Rd · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 8,400 block. 6 open, 6 past deadline, oldest waiting 4.9 years.

    Gulf Fwy · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 10,500 block. 5 open, 5 past deadline, oldest waiting 3.5 years.

  5. 05

We ask your office to request a status and timeline from the responsible departments for these items, starting with those past deadline, and to share the response with our Super Neighborhood.
