Three out of five issues I submitted via SeeClickFix were resolved. An abandoned bike might be a tougher one because it’s private property; not sure if the city can just move someone else’s stuff. I find the people on SeeClickFix to be responsive and overall helpful.

And of course the one positive comment is getting downvoted. Don't you know /r/jerseycity is for complaining and cynicism only?

The process is they put a sticker on it with a reasonable deadline (a month or two or something like that for the person to come back and claim). Have personally seen a bike get stickered but then they didn't come back to remove until over a year later.

Have also seen claims for work completed that they definitely did not do. WOTS has gotten this way to where the parking enforcement officers don't even show up to the location and still close out tickets pretending as if they were there. Their excuses used to be lame. Now they are just lies.

I have less of a problem with saying the city is under-resourced if that is what's happening in some cases though it's still the politicians' jobs to figure it out. But I don't know why we should ever accept lying by public employees.
