Fairly easy way to communicate with the City of Houston. If it cannot be completed via the app, it will contact a City employee to speak with. The City employee I spoke with was personable and knowledgeable. She listened to my situation (a missing street sign), accurately submitted it and emailed me a report, and it was resolved timely. I wish they would take a picture of what was done, but I drove by soon enough and was able to see for myself. Recommended!
App continues to improve. They do respond to feedback about problems. In most cases reporting infrastructure problems via the app will be faster than calling the 311 operator.
You need to fix it to where you can actually make requests on the app.The app and the site don't match at all.
