Potholes Not The Top Priority, Says Council

Common councilor Shirley McAlary recently getting vocal about the need to fix potholes and cracks in the city roads--but her motion to prioritize those repairs has been defeated with some saying the spot-jobs shouldn't at the expense of bigger repaving projects.

McAlary had said she wanted the cracks and potholes at the top of the list, even before repaving streets.

Councillor Donnie Snook says he's in favour of better roads, but fixing entire streets, like Somerset, is just as important as isolated potholes.
