City of Margate — Local services in Margate

How is it that one homeowner that doesn’t maintain his property that affects three other neighbors not only physically but costly simply because he doesn’t trim his trees, I’ve been living here for 25 years now, and My neighbor to the west of me has never maintained his property, including his trees. There are parts of the trees that are dead. They’ve grown tremendously outside of his property line. I know all about Florida law and trees and property loans but this comes down just to common sense.

We truly regret moving into this city! Sub-contractors would just come and shut your water off if they're working on your meter without any prior notices! The engineering department have the most rudest operators that will transfer you to someone else while you're speaking. Never ask to speak to a supervisor because they never answer! Worst city I've ever lived in and wouldn't recommend anyone to move here. This city is overvalued and...

Every city worker I see driving a city branded vehicle needs to learn how to drive. Almost every day I am being cut off or they are pulling out in front of fast moving traffic.
