Description
The entire Street - Chapman St - there are massive potholes .
Nothing has been done to repair these holes since moving into this neighborhood 15 years ago. I was just charged over $500.00 to repair - will the City pass this invoice?
the alignment in my car due to damage caused by the potholes.
The neighborhood would appreciate some attention to these problems as we all feel totally neglected by the City ...like we don't exist and of no importance.Pls HELP!!! Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Please advise when this problem can be fixed - must have at least 25 pot holes - massive ones !

After 2.5 years of bugging our City people we finally got them to patch the potholes. It still sucks and needs to be repaved... but better than it was.
The ironic thing is that on that particular street we are going to see 50 to 100 new units go in at market rates. Translates to Million$$$ in additional revenue to the city... yet they can't seem to see that folks paying $3000 a month in rent may not want to drive through a maze of potholes.

Addressed this issue?
How... by ignoring it?
The pot holes now are worse than they have ever been.

2 years?
You seem to have misplaced a year and 3 months!
The 2800 block is the worst...

"The patches only lasted 2 years?"
Likely, maybe less. When roads get as bad as Chapman they should be repaved... because it is cheaper and will last longer.
