Re-Re-Re-Redoing Dupont Ave N

Okay, I am getting a bit frustrated with the construction company that won the low bid to repave Dupont Ave N. Today is the fourth time they have chopped up and removed newly poured concrete sidewalk and curbing at the corners. I don't know if the company has incompetent help, if they are not following the blueprint, if they are cutting corners, or if the city is changing the rules in the middle of the game. The city estimated the cost of the project to be about $3.5M, with $1.4M coming from the Obama stimulus fund. The low bid came in over a million dollars below the estimate. Everyone was assessed according to the estimate and not the winning bid, but when the city accepted the cheapest bid they did not lower our assessments. We still pay the same amount, so the city is making more money on me. Call me upset. It was 3.5 weeks ago when they said they would be done in 2-3 weeks. All the curbing must be in before the asphalt can be laid. Aarrrrgggggghhhh!
