On: More than 10k problems fixed through 'Improve Detroit' app

I wonder what percentage of submitted problems are fixed and how many issues are repeat problems.

I'm in Santa Barbara and on my walk to work there seems to be a non-stop battle between some people tagging a foot bridge and the city painting over the graffiti. Because I enjoy street art this actually brings some added joy to my commute because I never know what I might see next or how long it will last. Kind of like a real world Snapchat.

(Click next in the bottom right corner, some people miss it! This is the exact "non-stop battle" sort of thing you're talking about.)
