Pot holes 2

A parishioner replies to the post about potholes:



Hi
why cant the pot hole repairs be done so that they do not re-occur? or is that just too simple a question?
the Managed Service providers appear to get away with a distinctly inferior service and lack of CBC oversight – we pay for it after all
you would not let these people repair your drive for instance



I have responded:


Much too simple question as you and I know. Why can't bankers put our money in a vault and give it back when we ask for it? 


Some of these roads actually need resurfaced - like all of them and the 
delays are lengthening all the time. I acknowledge issues about government and tax and spend but maybe we need to look again at hypothecating. Specific taxes for specific purposes which people accept need doing.
