Auto shop owners report an early and active pothole season this year, attributed to an “old-fashioned winter.”
The city fills multiple potholes daily but cannot repair those covered by snow or water. Residents can report potholes via 3-1-1 or an interactive city map, though the city is only liable for damage if the pothole was previously reported and ignored.
State-maintained highways are only liable for damage from May 1 to Nov. 15, with potholes reported via 1-800-POTHOLE.
