Potholes, Other Street Repair
- Case Date:

There are two deteriorating areas in front our home on S. Kings Court. They were repaired once by the street department several years ago and have returned. I believe the one near my driveway is made worse each time the city garage truck pulls in to empty our cans. The top two to three inches of the road surface is torn away and it is starting to tear into the bottom layers. The other in the middle of the street is about three feet long and 6 to 8 inches deep. When my the city last repaired these sections, they coated the areas with hand thrown mix and tapped it down by hand…IT LASTED ABOUT TWO WEEKS! It was a bandaid patch, folks! Isn't it more cost effective to fix these potholes correctly the first time…?

I have a question regarding the lights on the tennis courts at Wilson and Bryan Parks. I recently went over to Wilson Park and noticed that the lights which use to come on at 7:30 PM are no longer being turned on. The same is true at Bryan Park. Is this a permanent change until spring? I noticed at Wilson Park that although the tennis court lights were turned off the parking lights still were on. Is there any chance that the lights on the tennis courts, even if just on one court, could be left on for a little longer say into the end of November, in the evenings? Though cold the weather has not reached a point where it is unreasonable to play outside in the evenings. I realize the answer is probably no, especially in light of budgeting concerns, but I just felt it was worth asking. Thanks
Sincerely,
Chris Sontag
