What’s broken on your block?

Start with the location and the problem and say it just like you’d tell your neighbor.

Work a campaign can do.

These are examples, not automatic approvals. A note can fit a category and still need permission, a safer plan, or a smaller scope.

78Denver neighborhoods
One request list
Clean and haul

Alley cleanout days, illegal dumping sweeps, broken glass and trash around bus stops and park edges, and graffiti paint-outs with the property owner's written consent.

Repair shared spaces

Playground repairs, court lines, hoop nets, benches, park mulch, and ballfield grooming after the campaign gets permission from Parks and Recreation or the property owner.

Build for community use

Garden beds, Little Free Libraries, pantry shelters, bulletin kiosks, nonprofit repairs, and school projects routed through a foundation or PTA.

Host a fix-it event

Bike flats, brakes, and chains, plus lamp rewiring, hems, buttons, and tool sharpening at open campaign events staffed by Denver professionals and volunteers.

File it and run the clock

Potholes, streetlight outages, clogged storm drains, missed pickups, alley grading, speed-hump petitions, and missing crossings go to the city. We file the case with you and publish how long it takes.

City infrastructure stays with the city.

We cannot repair traffic signals, streetlights, pavement, water lines, or other public systems. We can file the case with you, send it to the right office, and put the clock on the public tracker.

Write the note.

What happens to your note

It goes into our request list with your neighborhood attached. We check whether the campaign can legally pay for it, whether the work is safe, whether we have permission, and what it costs. Sending a note does not approve the project. If we take it on, you hear from us before anything happens. Your contact information stays with the campaign. We only send broader campaign updates if you check that separate box. The public receipt shows the block and the work, not your name, unless you checked the publication box.

Some things a campaign cannot legally do or safely touch, and city crews exist for a reason. If your note is a 311 case, we'll say so and help you file it.
