The City of Oakland Call Center has received this issue. It is registered as service request #711154. Thank you, in advance, for your patience as we work through a backlog of pothole service requests. Unfortunately the City does not have enough funding to repave all streets in poor condition. With limited funding, our response to resurfacing requests is limited to minor pavement and pothole repairs only. Our Street Maintenance Department will assess your street and determine whether temporary measures might be appropriate. Please understand that this work may be limited to pothole or other minor repairs, and that we have many similar requests. We will do our best to respond in a timely manner. The backlog of streets in Oakland needing pavement currently is $435 million and growing.

Please, please fix this enormous pothole. It's the biggest pothole I have ever seen here and it's all but unavoidable when coming around the curve. It is reaking havoc on all of the car's wheels and front ends. This is unaccetable. Please fix this large pothole as soon as possible.
It doesn't hurt to contact the Council member for this District (6).
Desley Brooks has stepped up on a couple of occasions when this particular problem has been brought to her attention.

This is a recurring pothole/crater. The most recent fix was in mid-December after a dozen cars, including mine, blew out tires. It won't do any good to just stuff asphalt into the hole. Unless the underlying drainage problem is fixed, the holes are going to keep coming back. Can't you just cover the large one with a metal plate until it's fixed? It seems the crater keeps getting larger and larger, definitely bigger and more dangerous than it was two months ago.
This has been recurring since I moved to neighborhood 17 years ago. Countless neighbors in Dec. reported tire and other damage because the craters are hard to see when turning onto Mountain from Kuhnle. The neighborhood is Millsmont / Leona Heights. Measure KK led us to believe we would get some real fixes for underlying problem (underground stream?), not just patches that last 2 months.
Definitely dangerous as folks drive into the opposing lane to avoid this huge crater. This is not a fill it and forget it situation- that's been done many times. Please consider a permanent fix- water drainage seems to be the root, not wear and tear.
It is obvious that the temporary fixes are JUST NOT WORKING. It's no wonder Oakland has a backlog when they have to keep patching the same place over and over again.
