Re: Sooke Potholes parking lot getting makeover (News, March 3)

Reading about the bandage repairs to the Sooke Potholes has left me wondering why money is wasted on a minable repair.

Some months ago, I put forth a suggestion about increasing the elevation of the entire parking lot. As a result, motorists wouldn’t be swept away during the rainy season because it would be above the floodplain.

On the Potholes land, there is plenty of material to begin this venture.
