The Greens councillors, in their full-page comment (July 24) claimed, among many other things, that ‘We’ve done more to fix the roads… than any previous council’.
Perhaps they could explain then why some of the roads I use regularly are in the worst condition I have ever seen?
Annette Snow’s suggestion (Letters, July 31) of painting white around the potholes is a good one – then when Council come along with their white cane looking for the potholes they can match the colours.
If that doesn’t work, rates are due at the end of August. If Council is unable to understand public safety or the millions of dollars in damage to our cars every year, perhaps they will understand a rates strike?
