Other holes in the street - even a block away, are still there. <br /><br />Then Murray spoke for a bit, saying something like, "we will work around the clock to fill these potholes, but we won't spend any extra money." Which does not make sense to me.<br /><br />IMO, The whole thing reeked like a PR stunt.hellogerardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622511359833376849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535390.post-33192880828085363442011-03-25T16:30:35.527-04:002011-03-25T16:30:35.527-04:00Who said that this had to be revolutionary?

Potholes necessitate action in fixing them. There are numerous reasons to criticize any politician but in this instance I find it to be unwarranted. The press conference, which costs the taxpayers nothing, causes more pothole reporting, thus speeding up the process.Cincinnatushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08176381736901532043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535390.post-68679894874693587962011-03-25T12:50:36.996-04:002011-03-25T12:50:36.996-04:00Since the City has had a Customer Service Hotline ...Since the City has had a Customer Service Hotline for years now, where citizens can report things like potholes, how is Murray's plan new or revolutionary?

Well, you are hypocrites, but this would confirm your selective application of your organisation's alleged point.<br /><br />We all know your point is to destroy the city, not be worried about additional spending, so your comment is not a surprise.Brian Griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662857795736971173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535390.post-68706684721134794372011-03-24T23:25:16.393-04:002011-03-24T23:25:16.393-04:00^She also was advocating for pedestrians, COA T.
