The city’s public works department wants to do more hot boxing with its
vehicles, but don’t get the wrong idea— the only pot involved will be potholes.
The department needs up to $360,000 of taxpayers’ money to buy seven new “hot

fixing the city’s potholes, according to a report from deputy city manager Steve
Kanellakos. via
