<div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr">Well, what I learned is that they came out to just <b>patch</b> parts of the alley; and, the alley between Meadowdale & Les Jardines did not get repaired at all (he said that part was not on his work order, even though I specifically asked for that part of the alley to get repaired, too). Does the right hand talk to the left hand over there at the City??</div><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr"><br></div><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr">Anyway, Jeffrey was very helpful in explaining the process. He said to get <span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">it re-cemented would cost around $700K, so that's out of the question. And, t</span></span>he only way we can get the <b>entire</b> alleys repaired and not just 'patched' is if our alley is on a 'bond program.' He said they ran out of asphalt today or didn't have any more but if I get the next request approved as being on a 'bond program,' then we should be able to get the whole thing fixed with all new asphalt. Not sure how to get on a bond program, but I'm "on" it.
