I called for the 4th time to the MAC.about the pothole at the intersection of Hunters Green Way and Hunters Green Court; they said the pothole should be fixed by May 30th. I also called the real estate agent that has the listing for Angela’s house and asked him to get the grass cut asap. He said he would.
