Step 1.Let Us Know

If you notice an issue with a city streets, sidewalks, signs, or other infrastructure, submit the form below to let us know. We will take steps to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, and these reports can help us plan future infrastructure projects too.  

Please be as specific as possible about the location of the issue. Include the direction you were traveling, which lane you were in, nearby landmarks, which side of the street its on, and any other information that will help our team locate it.

Step 2.Review and Correction

The service time for repairing infrastructure can vary based on the severity of the issue or availability of supplies (like new street signs, etc.). Every report is reviewed and we work to resolve each one as quickly as possible. In some cases, engineering or planning is needed and we cannot act right away, but the report helps to inform our future infrastructure planning. Our team is continuously repairing potholes as long as the weather allows. Depending on the workload and the severity of the pothole, they can take up to a month to be repaired. 

Step 1.Call 311 or (269) 337-8000

If you notice an issue with a city tree, like dangerous or fallen limbs or a stump that needs to be removed, call 311 or (269) 337-8000 to report it. The City is only responsible for maintaining trees on city-owned property or in the right-of-way, so if this tree is on private property we may not be able to help. 

Step 2.Review and Correction

The service time for tree issues varies based on the type of request. Reported branches are generally removed within three days. Stump removal requires several steps and specialized equipment, so our team does these in batches after a certain number are ready to be removed. It can be several months before a stump is removed. 

After severe weather, our Forestry team will address these issues as quickly as possible but service may be delayed if there is a large number of fallen branches.
