Substantial disregard for property keeps occurring with whoever is laying fiber on E. Morningside. Water main burst at 4021 E. Morningside Drive. CBU dug up my yard to do repair. Please confirm that will be fixed by CBU via spring planting season for grass, etc.? The fiber team, if you can provide me contact information for a complaint if possible, was driving their truck through my yard today again including over areas CBU dug, causing significant depressions. When called out when I went out front a few minutes ago, they asked "What damage?" before I had to point it out and they said they would fix. A truck remains driving back and forth in my front yard at present. I am tempted to call the police. They are beyond any sort of easement, which they are abusing to begin with. This is getting ridiculous.
1. Parking meter is comparable to every other parking meter in town. 2. Meter is clearly configured and marked to accept coins: coin slot, label stating “COINS” with an arrow plus a notice “INSERT VALID COINS ONLY” 3. Despite the clear labeling and configuration of the meter to accept coins, alternating digital display actually reveals “CARDS ONLY” 4. Someone using the meter puts money in, only to get nothing for it, and THEN discover that despite the labeling, this particular meter (unlike hundred of others like it all over town) DOES NOT ACCEPT COINS. 5. Not accepting cash is an equity issue. Not everyone carries a credit card around. 6. There is no reason to make this so utterly confusing. This problem of misleading labels on the meter about accepting coins but not actually delivering paid time to park seems to be either a scam, incompetence, or laziness.

I have spoken to three different people this morning working for the parking department, all of whom have been unhelpful and rude. Each time I have an interaction with anyone from the parking department, it is unpleasant and unprofessional. This behavior is unacceptable for any person to behave in this way, especially someone who is employed by my government. In the first incident, I politely asked the woman why I was recieving a ticket and that I did not understand. She was rude and unhelpful. After this, I called the number printed on my ticket and spoke to the parking manager, also asking her why I had received my ticket; as well as voicing my concern about the way that I was previously treated. Instead of offering to make the situation right, she lectured me on how "more people should care about accessibility issues" and that since I was blocking the sidewalk entrance, she "hopes I never end up in a wheelchair and need to access the sidewalk". After politely bringing the first woman to her attention, I was immediately met with MORE uncalled for disrespect. I then followed up and called the second woman's boss. Thankfully, I understand now why I got the ticket, but I do not trust that the situation has been handled. However, each person in this department clearly needs to take a course in customer service.
