Report a Problem

We encourage you to use this form to report issues within the community. This form covers everything from "my trash wasn’t picked up today" to "a tree limb is down on the Constitution Trail." You can also report general concerns or issues with streets – including potholes, sidewalks and sewers. These reports are sent directly to appropriate staff. Staff seeks to respond to every inquiry within one business day. Many times, responses come much quicker than that.

Subscribe to Project Updates

Ask Our Chatbot

You can find our chatbot in the lower right corner of the website. Hugh (which stands for Help 'U' Get Help) is powered by artificial intelligence. He scours our websites (and those of other organizations) to provide real-time feedback. Staff regularly reviews questions Hugh receives and adjusts communications accordingly. He's not perfect, but Hugh is available 24/7. And, he is popular. We get an average of 10 questions a day! He helps us refine communications about events and services based on the type of questions you ask.
