In Austin’s raw 311 data, the following 7 service_type values are counted as sidewalks:
- SBO - Curb/Gutter Repair
- SBO - New Sidewalk/Curb Ramp/Route
- SBO - Obstruction in Right of Way
- SBO - Sidewalk Repair
- TPW - Curb/Gutter Repair
- TPW - Obstruction in Right of Way
- TPW - Sidewalk Repair
To reproduce these counts against the raw feed

WHERE service_type IN (
'SBO - Curb/Gutter Repair',
'SBO - New Sidewalk/Curb Ramp/Route',
'SBO - Obstruction in Right of Way',
'SBO - Sidewalk Repair',
'TPW - Curb/Gutter Repair',
'TPW - Obstruction in Right of Way',
