The short answer
Use CruzFix for non-emergency housing repairs; urgent after-hours problems have separate phone instructions.
What happens if something breaks in the room?
UCSC routes routine residence maintenance through CruzFix. Active flooding, water intrusion or an entry door that will not secure/open is treated as urgent; life-threatening emergencies go to 911.
