Wasn't aware that locates were necessary for road striping. Guess I learn something new every day.

It's done? Driving north along Kasold, from about the 2800 block until the 2400 block, the road is all wobbly. I thought they still needed to resurface it still.
The road on Crestline between Harvard and Oxford is horrible too. They spent months fixing the road there and now it sounds horrible when you drive over it. It "whumps" at every section break in the concrete. Not a smooth transition at all. Makes for a very noisy street.

There's an easy solution, don't drive.

GardenMomma === you may want to check your tires for lumps.

But since the only time I notice it is at those two specific places (and I have driven those roads in different cars and noticed the same thing) and I am not the only one who has noticed the Crestline stretch, I don't think it is my tires. They are brand new.

Again I ask, Who decides the questions answered in this forum? This again is an IDIOTIC question that 99.9% of the readers could care less about!! If this column is to continue at least have questions that are RELEVANT and are actually a CONCERN of the community instead of INANE questions that no one cares about!!

Yet, you keep showing up to comment....
You do realize that "Sound Off" is a column in the print edition? It is not necessarily a comment driven featured article.

"Sound Off" appears to be a place for the unhinged, ignorant, and/or computer-illiterate to ask pointless questions of city officials - usually ones that could be solved with 5 seconds of Googling.

If readers "could care less" as you say, then they care. I think you really mean "couldn't care less" meaning that they truly could not care less because they don't care at all.

Finally, someone points out that "could care less" is used wrongly all the time! One of the most frustrating phrases in the world!

John Cleese has one of the best explanations on the subject:
