I have lived in Mustang,OK since May,2008. We have a concrete drainage ditch behind our house. The ditch never drains and stands with about 3-4 inches of water in it year round. The city has agreed that it was not constructed properly to drain. This ditch is a breeding place for mosquitos and other bugs, we also have snakes and frogs in our back yard from this ditch. The city refuses to correct the problem even after admitting it was not constructed right. The developer was ERC, but the city won't even force them to fix the problem. The neighborhood feels this situation is a public health and nuisance issue. The city of Mustang will not help with this problem...can anyone help?? Thanks H. Bridges

I agree with H. Bridges! Something has to be done about the drainage ditch! We have been here since Feb. 2007 and they promised to keep it cleared out then! We love Mustang but are thinking about moving because nothing ever gets done in this town that is promised! Thanks... dc

I have reported many code violations involving the home builders and the devolpers to the city, but the city will not enforce their own city codes. It just makes me believe that city is in bed with the builders. New homes are good for Mustang, but not good when it hurts the citizens and goes against the city codes and laws. Also the drainage ditch I reported about earlier is in the city's utility easement!

Thanks "DC" for your opinion. You are exactly right...nothing ever gets done.

It seems that there is more and more crime going on in Mustang. We could hire more police officers, but our city manager has to paid $80k/year plus a car, gas, and mileage allowance to set on his hands and not do much for the city. What's wrong with this picture.....something is!!!

Home Buyers...... Beware of the new home builders and the sales rep's that tell you about the new home you are looking at. I know for a fact from personal experience that the builders and the property developers are not telling the truth about where the property lines are and how much property that you are responsible for. I am sure that the city knows this also because all they want is your property taxes...so don't count on the city to inform you of the scam. The city must have something going with the new home builders and the developers to keep this quiet. The new home buyer can end up owning and being responsible for infrastructure that any where else the city would be responsible, but not in Mustang. The city of Mustang is very good at skirting and pushing their responsibility on the new home buyers. Beware......... Harold
