No leak found

This is bull$@#. I sent you photos of the leak. I sent the address. The leak looks EXACTLY the same this morning as it did yesterday. It's pouring from the. meter at the sidewalk. Our ditches are now overflowing. The inspector either went to the wrong place, or hasn't the brains god gave a goose.

Thank you for playing. Please try again.

Your request to Houston 311 has been accepted. Your service request ID is #292692.

The site of the leak. 2405 Richton street.

The waterfall from the meter.

The address of the leak. It is outside the security gate.

Meter cover now open to make it clearer and easy to spot.

Ok. We don't seem to be in the same planet here. You closed the issue again within three minutes of my last live photo. I was still standing in water over my shoes, and no inspector drove by.

So - there is now a huge COH truck with backhoe at the site with a team of workers. Thank you.

But could someone at 311 explain why the issue would be marked 'closed - no leak found' twice - and THEN a repair crew be sent to the site? That's very confusing to the people trying to report the incident. Mark it "in progress", or leave a note that you already know about it from some other source, but don't mark it "no leak found" if someone clearly is coming to fix it.

Thanks.
