Patch alley potholes behind S Ogden Ave, Hilltop

Unpaved-grade potholes in the alley behind S Ogden Ave hold standing water after every rain and have already cracked two residents' trash-cart wheels. Standard: Community-coordination standard, documentation-and-coordination-only; canonical hazard severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical). No repair authority. Proof: Before photo + measurement of each pothole + Fill/compaction photos + Finished, crowned patch photos Method (Community-coordination standard, documentation-and-coordination-only; canonical hazard severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical). No repair authority.): 1. Photograph each pothole and measure depth/diameter. 2. Clear loose debris and standing water from each hole. 3. Fill with cold-patch asphalt in lifts, compacting each lift before adding the next. 4. Crown the final lift slightly above grade for settling and photograph the finished patch. Done when: Before photo + measurement of each pothole + Fill/compaction photos + Finished, crowned patch photos

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: Community-coordination hazard survey (documentation + coordination only; severity-tagged)

Bring

• GPS phone
• camera
• hi-vis vest
• severity-tag reference (minor|moderate|severe|critical)

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor from a safe path; record a GPS waypoint at each hazard.
2. 2. Photograph each hazard.
3. 3. Classify the hazard type and assign a severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical).
4. 4. Name the responsible handoff target (BID / city agency / utility).
5. 5. Enter each hazard's type, severity, GPS, photo, and handoff target into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• NEVER perform repair or enter the roadway/public right-of-way -> documentation and coordination only.
• Any severity:critical (e.g., live downed wire, open utility vault) -> flag immediately to the responsible agency; keep clear.

What counts as done

• Each hazard photographed with a GPS waypoint
• Severity tag assigned per hazard
• Hazard type classified
• Named handoff target per hazard

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
