Bass reports pothole, pothole stays broken
LA's mayor got tagged to fix a pothole, hit the reporter back with a "we got you" and the whole infrastructure-reporting thing, and then... nothing happened. The pothole didn't get fixed. She just generated a viral moment instead of actual maintenance.
Meanwhile there are hundreds of others sitting in LA streets doing nothing but getting worse. This is what happens when governance becomes content creation.
Simone Boyce we got you! Spot a pothole on your street? Send it our way. Report it to 311, through the MyLA311 app or at https://lacity.gov/myla311.
A mayor's social media flex to fix infrastructure goes nowhere, turning infrastructure reporting into theater instead of actual repair.
