Photo-a-Day - June 2013 - Day 18: Street

My faith in Oakland has been bolstered.  Last Tuesday, I submitted a problem notice to the City of Oakland.  We had a pothole on our street that was in danger of becoming a major issue as the surface had broken to the point where you could see the sewer pipe beneath it.  I received a confirmation saying my notice had been accepted but that they were very busy. 

Imagine my delight and surprise when I drove down the street on Thursday and found the hole had been filled and patched.

Yeah, Oakland!
