Resident Tony Campanalie described a water-main-induced street collapse, said a firefighter fell into a ditch, and asked where $38,000 collected for trees over 15 years went, alleging discrimination against his neighborhood.

During the public comment period, Tony Campanalie of 7565 Clark Street described a recent street collapse following a broken water main and reported that two fire trucks were on scene and that one firefighter fell into the ditch. He said the street has not been fully rebuilt, that ditches pose a safety hazard, and urged the city to take action.
