The winner of this week’s Golden Pothole Contest is Mike Hartmeister.
Hartmeister reported a mammoth pothole at North Washington Avenue and North Rubey Drive that the city public works crew measured at 32 inches, by 36 inches, and four inches deep.
For his help to the city in finding and patching potholes, Hartmeister was awarded free air conditioning service courtesy of Cool Breeze Automotive. He also received a vest jacket courtesy of MillerCoors.
For the entire month of April anyone who reported a pothole within the city limits to the Public Works Department was entered into the weekly contest. The city attempted to patch every reported pothole within 48 hours, weather permitting.
Goldenites may still report pothole locations to Public Works at 303-384-8151. Potholes may also be reported online, or through a mobile app. For details, go to www.cityofgolden.net/links/YourGov.
