Ticket status 2 days later: CLOSED!

.................... they just ... decided not to bother. They didn't even go out.
I'm about ready to call city hall and tell them I'm not giving them a damn nickel of tax money anymore, since the city isn't doing its damn job. They don't even do their own tax collection; it's done by the state, who gives the money to the localities that impose their own additional taxes.
Seriously man, how long have you lived in Baltimore? As far as public services go, it probably ranks near the bottom of any major city in the US. Its abandoning its tax base by hiking property taxes forcing people into Baltimore County, it has a corrupt city hall with several prior mayors suspected of, investigated for, and/or convicted of fraudulent activities. The police department is under sever scrutiny for covering up and under-reporting crimes. The murder per capita rate is one of the highest in the country. There is a staggering amount of drugs that comes through the port and the associated organized crime that comes along with large scale drug trafficking. I'm pretty sure roadkill removal is near the bottom of their give a **** list.
