What's your city doing (or starting to do) that makes you happy?

They're finally paving over the road work they did last year extending the sewer main. It has been a long year of unmarked lanes, uneven asphalt and gravel, and steel plates.

No one connected that sewer main, but now more houses are within 200' feet, meaning the city won't approve septic system repair and will instead require connection to the sewer at $100k+ on the property owner.

But not having the underside of my vehicle scrape to and from work does make me happy.
