Citizens can log onto a website and report the location and severity of potholes. As pot-

and are assigned an identifying number, stored by street address, size (on a scale of 1 to
10), location (middle, curb, etc.), district (determined from street address), and repair
prior- ity (determined from the size of the pothole). Work order data are associated with
each pothole and include pothole location and size, repair crew identifying number,
number of people on crew, equipment assigned, hours applied to repair, hole status
(work in progress, repaired, temporary repair, not repaired), amount of filler material
used, and cost of repair (computed from hours applied, number of people, material and
equipment used). Finally, a damage file is created to hold information about reported
damage due to the pothole and includes citizen’s name, address, phone number, type of
damage, and dollar amount of damage. PHTRS is an online system; all queries are to be
made inter- actively:
