Neighborhood request

Minnetex: 30 service requests past the City's deadline

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

Dear Council Member Carolyn Evans-Shabazz,

We are residents of Minnetex in District D. As of Sep 27, 2026, 30 City service requests in our neighborhood are open past the City's own deadline, and 10 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:

01
E Orem Rd · Trees & storm limbs
Near the 6,600 block. 3 open, 3 past deadline, oldest waiting 1.2 years.
02
Carson Rd · Potholes, streets & sidewalks
Near the 6,100 block. 4 open, 2 past deadline, oldest waiting 4 weeks.

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.
