Cut The Grass Please!

On April 6, I wrote a request for services to the City about cutting the grass on the corner. I do this every year- in fact, several times over the grass cutting months. Let's wait to see how long it will take to get it done. They usually send a receipt when it is completed. The grass is already over a foot high, and now there are tire treads in it- probably a vehicle skid on to it from the slippery streets from the rain last week, or one of many of the work trucks around here just decided to back up on the  lawn and make a mess.

This is the message I received when the request was submitted on April 6:

"Thank you for reporting your city services needs. Your service request for Grass & Weeds Mowing at E STREET AND "X", WASHINGTON, has been added to the service request tracking system and assigned the unique service request number 11-00097600. This number is the official reference number for your service request if you need to inquire about it in the future. It can be used in conjunction with your E-mail address to query the latest available status via the Internet.
Please click on the following link to check the status of service request number 11-00097600."

So I checked the status of the item by following the link and this is what I got:

"The information provided does not match any service request records. Please verify your entry"

Why am I not surprised?

Let's see if it reaches 2 feet before someone else notices

A little further and this vehicle would have hit the house
