SUBMIT A 311 Step by Step

1. DIAL 311 AND FOLLOW PROMPTS, or 

2. EMAIL 311@houstontx.gov 

If you email, include photos pertinent to your concern with a clear, detailed description of the problem. Ask in the email for 311 to reply with a case reference number.  

Set a Reminder to follow up on your issue within XX days - depending on the issue. 

*FYI* 

If ten neighbors submit the same issues, only the first may be assigned a number.  In your email, I suggest adding "if a 311 has been submitted for this concern already - please copy me with that number.  Be polite. They are processing a very high number of 311 calls and are great to work with.

Best Practices

Get to know our amazing City Council Member Abbie Kamin and her staff. Once you get that reference # from 311 copy your email and that number and remind District C that you need help. 

DistrictC@houstontx.gov

Keep in mind that some At Large Council Members Focus on Certain Areas of Concern. For Example, Dr. Plummer is Excellent with Renter Concerns.  Sallie Alcorn is the Expert on Composting, etc etc.
