And don’t replace sidewalks on several blocks of downtown streets (Nevada Ave.) that didn’t need repair yet alone replacing. THEN maybe you’ll have the funds to do necessary repairs… or maybe we need to take a closer look at those making these decisions… and replace them.

I don’t even want to think of the damage to my frame and alignment but my car drives over a “filled’ pothole and it veers sharply to one side…..and it’s a newer car!!

I remember a story almost five years ago where a motorcycle cop made a routine stop and lost control of his bike because of a pothole in the road (Fountain Blvd?) Does there have to be a fatality before the City starts taking accountability for the shoddy work they’ve done? Is their crappy workmanship supposed to make tax-payers want to pay more!! Academy, from Maizeland to Austin Bluffs, has been “filled” in recent months and the roads are every bit as bad as they ever were…..where’s the accountability?
