Two potholes in front of my house fill with rainwater
creating an unhygienic and hazardous condition that needs urgent repair.
There are two potholes directly in front of my house that fill with rainwater after every rainfall. These puddles persist for days and have become both unsightly and a potential health hazard due to stagnant water. The condition is worsening, and proper repair is urgently needed.
I have attached photos showing the current state.
