Video: Report Problems to the County with New App

See a pothole or a broken sidewalk? A new YouTube video posted yesterday (Feb. 29) on Facebook and attached to this story, shows how to report problems you see in the community using your smart phone or computer.

In January, Pinellas County rolled out a new app "SeeClickFix" which allows residents to report non-emergency problems with a smart phone or computer.

On smart phones use the app to text a message about the problem and add a photo to illustrate the problem, if you want. Download the app online for your iphone, BlackBerry or Android.
