My street was heaving real bad in front of my house during the winter a few years ago. So much so we had to be careful to not bottom out our cars on the whoop-de-doos. All it took to get it fixed was sending a single informative email to the City Public Works and Maintenance Departments during the height of the problem (mid February-ish) asking that it be fixed. The street was sealed up before the next winter with a thin coat of asphalt similar to what was done on River St and our whoop-de-doos disappeared.
My experiences with the City Public Works and Maintenance Departments have been mostly positive when they have been informed about legitimate problems. It's never a bad thing to at least ask about concerns.
