Description
There are so many pot holes on this little dirt patch of road in this ally way, that all-terrain comes to mind and bottom out is a reality. It is to the point now, that four wheel drive is preferred. I am almost tempted not to report it, because the traffic flow from the gas station that the customers used to use all the time and disregarding the sign that says local traffic only is becoming a trickle of unsuspecting victims, to my delight. I dare say if they do pave the road like the rest of the alley is done, we will have faster and more frequent traffic ignoring the local traffic sign posted at both ends of the alley. So maybe you shouldn't fill in the pot holes and allow them to get much bigger and maybe one might get stuck in a pot hole big enough to swallow it whole.

They may have been repaired a few weeks ago, but the pot holes are re-appearing. The rain and the constant traffic from the gas station, has opened up the pot holes again. The two large ones going across to the pavement into the gas station has re-appeared. All the pot holes that where filled in they are coming back big time. The heavy rains plus the tires of the cars going through the pot holes are getting just as big as they where a couple of weeks ago. Of course they where repaired but like I said in the other link, they need to be paved. So what I am telling the city now....all the work they did before, is for not. It was a waste of the cities time, my neighbors time, my time and money for doing it wrong. There is an old adage that goes something like this. You do the same thing over and over again expecting different results, how crazy is that.
Years ago, you where paving the alley ways, then you ran out of money. Now you want us in our own area to foot the money. It is the cities responsibility to do it right the first time, and paving our alley is the only solution for all this constant traffic. Not only that, since the heavy traffic is the result of the Rally Gas station, I think they should foot the bill, don't you? My understanding that in conversation with the other Neighbors, the city is pro-business, and we the residence pay for it.
If you are not going to do it right the first time, second time, third time and so on, you need to come back and do it again.
