    Good work done so far by city work crews. Improvements are appreciated. However I would like to know how road repair is prioritized? Dairy Lane is an absolute mess. I have lived here for 3 years and have been visiting Huntsville for the last 8 plus years prior to that. In all this time not a thing has been done as far as road repair. It’s getting to the point that if you exceed 10 kph your risking major damage to the undercarriage of your car! Come on Huntsville you can do better.
