Mayor Bloomberg wants even more New Yorkers to snap pictures on their iPhones to accompany 311 complaints, he said yesterday.
“It’s the next level of technology. When somebody says, ‘There’s a pothole,’ if they can just take a picture and send it to us, it tells us right where it is. It lets us go fix it. It’s a great idea!” Bloomberg said, in response to The Post’s front-page story yesterday about New Yorkers ratting out people who break local laws by sending photos to 311.
More than 8,000 complaints to the city’s hot line came with video, pictures and audio — up from a mere 100 in 2008.
