      The fixed pothole (Photos – Scott Phelps)

      I recently submitted a pothole repair request via the city of Pasadena’s website.

      By Scott Phelps

      I was pleased to see it was fixed within about ten days. Kudos to the city’s Service Center and presumably staff from the Public Works Department.

      Let’s see how many potholes can be fixed in the days before New Year’s! We can call it The Holiday Pothole Fixing.

      If anyone who lives in Pasadena sees a pothole, submit a request via the city’s website for it to be repaired. Many people already do this as can be seen from the map of pothole requests in the city. Just submit a street address of where the pothole is located and a photo.

      Here’s the link to submit a request: cityofpasadena.net/city-service-center/submit-a-request/?goparms=classificationid=18906.
