PLACERVILLE — Someone in Placerville is using spray paint, and some phallic symbols, to draw attention to some potholes on Wood Ridge Court.<\/p>\n
Neighbors in the area say the potholes along the street have gone unrepaired for a long time, but the graffiti just recently appeared. One spot had the phrase “what are taxes for.”<\/p>\n
Resident Geof Peabody said he knows the guy who did it, and said the guy did it out of frustration.<\/p>\n
“Watched the kid who lives around here, he got a ticket because his front license plate fell off going through here, so they gave him a ticket for not having a front license plate,” Peabody said.<\/p>\n
Resident Lucas Aspenleiter said he doesn’t think the city will do anything because it is a low-income neighborhood.<\/p>\n
“Penalizing me for being poor, now I got to fix my car driving on this road, and I don’t have enough money to do all that,” he said.<\/p>\n
City of Placerville work crews were in the neighborhood Tuesday to remove the graffiti. The potholes were still there.<\/p>\n
The city manager’s office would not comment on the potholes or graffiti.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
