Please state, in detail, what happened that prompted you to file a Notice of Claim Form: While driving on W Kellogg Blvd in St. Paul, I struck a pothole that caused both of my left-side
hubcaps to come off of my vehicle. Additionally, in the time it took me to pull my car over and collect the hubcaps, one of them had been run over multiple times, to the point where
it no longer resembled a hubcap at all. Additionally, the steel frame of my front left tire has been bent/damaged.
Please state why or how you feel the City of Saint Paul is responsible for your Damages? There shouldn’t be potholes large enough to remove multiple hubcaps from a vehicle on city streets.
This incident could have been avoided had the pothole been filled.
