I see you posted a pothole issue on 04/24/2019. Well I went over the pothole Sunday and blew out 2 tires and two wheels. Plus I need an alignment. Total cost for a 2018 BMW is approx $2,000 +/-
As I went back today to photograph the scene of the incident it appears the city filled the potholes this morning possibly because they saw my post on seeclickfix. It should not have taken over a month since your post! This was just several in a series of potholes along Kenrick St and they were LARGE & DEEP!
Sorry for your difficulties. I do my best to keep the local cities and towns notified of their responsibilities. The fact that these potholes were documented means you should have no difficulty filing for and collecting compensation from the city of Newton. They have a procedure you need to follow and can get details by calling the Town Clerk office. I will close this issue once I have verified the repair.
The reason I document these besides helping the municipalities find and fix their potholes is so owner's like your have excellent documentation to sue for damages. Once posted the city cannot claim they did not know about the problem. They are legally responsible. I will close once I confirm repair.
