It was interesting to read the letter to the editor regarding the high-quality line painting that the city of Vancouver has been accomplishing lately (“Roads are deteriorating,” Our Readers’ Views, Sept. 6). I agree! Those workers really know what they’re doing, and the result is beautiful, fresh paint on our streets.
I disagree about the potholes, though. It’s super simple to report a pothole (https://tinyurl.com/32x9hb29 or call 360-487-8177), and in my experience, that hole is taken care of within a day or two. It’s our responsibility as citizens to let the city’s Public Works Department know there’s a pothole somewhere within city boundaries.
