Roger, Sorry to hear about the delay. Hope things get cleared up for good and quick.
Just a thought - when I lived in the Great White North, we could file damage claims against the city for damage due to a pothole. They were pretty prompt about settling as well, as long as you had all your documentation in order. The wife's Mazda6 got a bent wheel courtesy of a pothole, and the city settled the claim in about 5 weeks. Bought a new wheel and covered the labor and incidentals to R&R the tire.
