“Dear PoPville,
Can you help me? I phoned 311 about this fire hydrant on my street and was transfered to water and sewerage (or something like that) and reported that someone had run over this fire hydrant and no water was coming out of it-fine, they’d someone out. But as of 530pm today they hadn’t dealt with this issue.
Any recommendations, or perhaps asking your readers to call and ask the city to take action? Also… Shouldn’t there water gushing out of this hydrant?
The hydrant us on Wyoming avenue, NW, between 18th and 19th Street. In Adams Morgan.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.”
Well this is disturbing. If 311 didn’t work – who do you think the reader should call? His Council member? DC Water? The Fire Department.
While I’ve never seen a sight like the one above before, unfortunately, the one below is not terribly uncommon:
