A website has been launched to show people a map of open and closed issues, and to provide them a way to request other services. The goal of this initiative is to more effectively identify and clean up illegal dumps, piles of waste and debris, dead animals, downed trees, eviction material and more, as well as to engage residents to host neighborhood cleanups.
