Please help us withe prolonged street paving now taking 6 days versus the promised 2, Bleriot between 78/79th; it took over a decade of my calling every few months to 311 & tons of desks called to have the resurfacing done ( out of money, does not need it, etc): for 16 years that I have lived there, all streets around us resurfaced & never hours & now they cannot finish the job! Why? I am tired of paying thousands upon thousands of tax dollars to an inept city bureaucracy. Our sidewalks and streets are deteriorating & literally no voice makes any difference. I asked my neighbors to call 311; now they say they will complete the slurry on Monday, si a 2 day job has become a 5 day one, & on whi’s dime? At a mimimun they should have sent notices!
