Thanks for this.

I believe I know a bit, but I definitely don’t know as much as I need to know. I’m trying to educate myself, though, and this will help

They don't care. They think it's Trump's fault that there's a pothole in front of their house.

Breh, the street right in front of our local road service department is riddle with potholes. Got me wondering what they do with our city taxes.
One good thing about toll roads is no potholes ever.

Have you called in those potholes?

it's literally the entire road in front of their office. They have to drive over it to get the work.

It goes to people who make their presence known. My homeboy works for our county and his job is patching potholes that people report. He got pressed at the barbershop about why he doesn't do it in our Hood and when he asked who reported potholes everyone was quiet.

My city was horrendous a year ago. We had like 8 inches of snow. Then it was like 60 degrees so it all melted that day, then the temp dropped to like 20 and it froze, then it snowed again.

It literally destroyed our cities streets.
People were on the news filling their own potholes. Our fukking lying ass city said "if yiure vehicle gets damaged by potholes you can send a claim and we can reimburse you" they acknowledge they've had this system in place for 20 years but have never approved or reimbursed one person! To top it off, it was only like 30-60 days you could submit a claim, and it was a low amount they paid maybe 10,000-20,000 total dollars. It wasnt tires being popped, fukking peoples CV joints, tire rods, rims, alignment...Everything was getting fukked up.

That means they approved like 2 claims. Whole shyt is fukked up.
