How about a missing street sign or streetlight that isn’t working? Reporting these types of issues just got easier. The City is now accepting service requests through an iPhone app, facebook app, and web form. The Service Request Pilot Program will give citizens the ability to submit a request any time day or night. The iPhone app is free and can be obtained by searching for the “Citizen Request Tracker” in the app store. When a concern is identified, use the app to take a picture, add a description, and send it to the City. Using the iPhone’s GPS technology, the app automatically pinpoints the exact location of the concern. The services that can be requested are: • Draining, unplugging, or cleaning catch-basins • Fixing of leaning, missing, or detached street signs • Investigation of flooding, ponding, or standing water • Pothole repairs • Removing vegetation that blocks street signs • Street sweeping • Streetlight repairs • Water pressure tests The app is not available for Android phones at the current time, but it will be in the future. If you don’t have an iPhone, a request can be submitted the following four ways: 1. Online at http://or-lakeoswego.civicplus.com/ RequestTracker.aspx or by clicking on the Citizen Request Tracker icon on the main City website: www. ci.oswego.or.us. 2.

Did you know that, unless you have a “No Solicitation” sign posted (one that meets Lake Oswego Code requirements), a person can solicit between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m., daylight savings time or between 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. standard time? Solicitation includes either verbal communication or distributing written materials. be a good neighbor The sun and rain that we’ve experienced over the past months has allowed vegetation to grow quickly and plants are flourishing throughout the city. Take a look at the vegetation in your area - is the vegetation next to your roadway or along your property a hazard? It may be if it restricts visibility at an intersection, obstructs the view of a sign, blocks a street light, impedes traffic or pedestrians, or hinders maintenance work. If so, please take some time now to trim it. In Lake Oswego, City Code requires property owners to keep sidewalks and streets adjoining their property free from projecting or overhanging bushes, brush and limbs that may make the passage of vehicles or pedestrians unsafe. Branches, leaves and other vegetative growth are not allowed to project an elevation of less than 9 feet above the level of the sidewalk and 13.5 feet over a street. If your property is at an intersection, the corner must be kept clear of vegetation over the height of 30 inches for the visibility of vehicles and pedestrians. It is the property owner’s liability and responsibility to address these issues, not the City’s. For more information, call Engineering Technician Nancy Flye at 503-697-7419. Trim vegetation along your property. learn about the Water PartnerShiP Lake Oswego and Tigard joined together in 2008 to share drinking water resources and costs. Both cities need reliable water supplies and want to keep water affordable for their customers. Sharing the cost of new infrastructure does that.
