It’s spring, which means it’s time for this year’s Pothole Hotline Contest. The 2007 program kicks off on March 22nd, and for five weeks will award a prize each week to the City of Golden resident that reports the biggest pothole. It’s a light-hearted way to draw attention to a serious problem, and the hotline helps our Public Works Department find all of the potholes in need of repair. The largest pothole I remember from last year was 24” x 30”, but with all the storms and freeze-thaw we’ve had I suspect there are some larger ones out there just waiting to be reported. The Public Works folks’ goal is to patch the pothole within 48 hours of being reported (so long as the weather cooperates). To report a pothole, call 303-215-8882 x2901.
