Thanks SEE-CLICK-FIX. I posted this on Monday, Tuesday PM they swept the street and started filling the potholes and finished the street this morning. SEE-CLICK-FIX works, thank you and thanks to the Town of Manchester.
About the only thing that would help alleviate the problem would be to put storm sewers in the area at the top of the hill. We've asked off and on for the last 35 years about getting them. There still aren't any. We pretty much gave up.
In a kind of humorous related story - One winter a town worker was chopping ice out in the street. My wife asked him what he was doing. He said he was clearing the ice from the storm drain. She said there isn't one and he said yes there is, it shows it here on my street map. Guess when they built the road, we got short changed.
Well yeah, I guess you did. As did the rest of the taxpayers, unless a change was made to the plan because of unforeseen costs. Sometimes a contractor will dig up a rock or something that's too large to move within the cost of a contract, and the vendor might agree to drop part of the plan...
But somehow I think that's not a likely scenario in this case! Thanks Mr. Hodge. I'll try to get the team to look into it. Who knows, the builder may still be getting publicly funded contracts.
It is absolutely horrible to drive down Devon Dr. Even Deepwood Dr has the potholes. It was made worse when the construction on the sewers was done. It is even worse when it rains and the hole fill with water. When you drive over the puddles you pray that there isn't a pothole under it.

Hello Mr. Hodge
That's great news. Can you tell if they're doing any work related to alleviated a repeat of the problem? Just curious.
