Why Sheffield Has Potholes

 



Whether it's pothole repair or trash pickup, city services cost money. One of our regular readers recently made a very profound comment:


Nobody is asking the right questions. Why doesn’t the city have enough money to fill in potholes, repair its street department vehicles, or hire a sufficient number of employees? The answer lies out there on West 20th Avenue, the only place in the city with ZERO potholes but lots of manicured landscaping. By the way, the upkeep on that multimillion dollar albatross is being done by a landscaping company NOT located in Sheffield, so I guess the city has some spending money available, just none for its own citizens.


Our opinion is that no one is asking any questions. Not after nine years, not after one or two lawsuits, not after millions of dollars of loans.

Can anyone tell the public just where Inspiration Landing stands? How about where it's NOT standing?

  1. It's PAST time for an INTENSIVE STATE AUDIT. Sheffield is starting to resemble Phenix City of the 1950s.
