Thanks Chris. You are right. Each department does have a comment option at the bottom of their contact page. Itried to add this picture without success.
For the average partly computer literate guy like myself, I was able to get to the home page and then wondered whatto do. When I did go to "Parks" I wondered if I should email the cemetery, recreation or forestry heads. It did notoccur to me to scroll down.
I am wondering if a "Report a Problem" tab on the "Home" page would help citizens provide more valuable input. Ifound licencing, permits, citations and lots of other things easily.
Sorry to bug you about this. I think we should continually find ways to engage our community and improvecommunications. I am not sure we encourage this enough.
Question: how is it this rotten post has evaded the notice of the parks department when the post is a couple hundredfeet from its office? I have noticed it for at least a few years now.

Chris:
There must be a good public servant I can send this to besides you. On E Villard at the south side of Beale Park thispost is one bump from falling over. Hopefully not killing some kid or dog.
Is there a site where citizens can bring health and safety issues to the city's attention?
