Neighborhood request

Midtown: 137 service requests past the City's deadline

To
Council Member Carolyn Evans-Shabazz, District D
From
Neighbors of Midtown

Dear Council Member Carolyn Evans-Shabazz,

We are residents of Midtown in District D. As of Sep 27, 2026, 137 City service requests in our neighborhood are open past the City's own deadline, and 44 have waited more than a year. From Aug 2024 to Aug 2025, the City missed its deadline on 32% of requests here (about 33% would be typical for this mix of problems).

Neighbors voted on what matters most:

  1. 01

    Crawford St · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 3,500 block. 7 open, 7 past deadline, oldest waiting 2.2 years.

  2. 02

    Main St · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 4,400 block. 5 open, 4 past deadline, oldest waiting 3.5 years.

  3. 03

    Louisiana St · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 2,100 block. 4 open, 4 past deadline, oldest waiting 5 months.

  4. 04

    Richmond Ave · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 400 block. 3 open, 3 past deadline, oldest waiting 2.7 years.

  5. 05

    Travis St · Signals, signs & street lights

    Near the 3,800 block. 3 open, 3 past deadline, oldest waiting 2.3 years.

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.
