This city is Broken:

I would think the city should respond within the 72 hours in acts of Vandalism, to coincide with with their Graffiti awareness. The response time to graffiti on city property is 72 hours according to the website: http://www.hamilton.ca/ProjectsInitiativ...

The City’s Role is to: Receive, track and coordinate graffiti complaints.Remove graffiti from City property. New service standard is removal within 72 hours of reporting.

Since graffiti and vandalism, in a lot of cases go hand in hand, this kind of vandalism should also be included within 72 hours.

A lot of things can be taken from this one piece of glass.

Not only does it look bad for the city, but in general business for the city over all. It may be only a single piece of broken glass, but as it lays there unattended for a prolong period of time, but it's also it's chances of injuring someone, which could include unnecessary litigation costs, lawsuits and whatever else someone could find.

Even a simple clean up to ensure the area is safe would be ideal to start once it's been reported.

Unless of course the city's maintenance vehicles are unfit for the road, but that's a complete different issue.
