I should probably get this fixed this year. Do I just call 311 and let them know?

This happened to my sister and that is what she did. The sidewalk is the city's responsibility. However, they must get a ton of calls for these types of things, so unless its really bad, you'll likely be low on the priority list. We have a few cracks in our sidewalk but nothing has been fixed for us yet since they probably consider the damage to be minor.
