Did you know it’s easier than ever to let our City Environmental Enforcement team know about environmental concerns in your neighborhood? ⚠️
With our Environmental Enforcement complaint form, City residents can report illegal dumping, visual obstructions, potholes, tree hazards, and more right on our website!
