Gone

Bamboo is gone for $19.50 thanks to either the carelessness of the solid waste dept. or the indignant responses from council members.

While Harris was talking to Solid Waste about the problem on Friday, the caller suggested that Harris take it up with City Council if he had a problem with it. After I got back from lunch on Friday, that's exactly what I did and it seems city council was not amused.

By 3:30 Friday afternoon Harris had an apology from the director of solid waste who had pulled the tape of the call and listened to it and confirmation that they would pick up all of the bamboo for no additional charge by the end of the day.

It's all gone.

We also anticipate having our first estimate for the shell rennovation delivered to us this week. This would entail a licensed general contractor fixing the foundation and rebuilding the roofline. Additioanlly, they would put in the new replacement windows where the current broken replacement windows are, rebuild the porch, and replace rotten exterior wood.

We're thinking colors along the lines of ... HEX: #F70586RGB:

This is going to be fun

Harris was told today, while on the phone with Solid Waste, "if you've got a problem with it* call City Council".

Email sent to council and city manager at 1:10pm

Two responses from council members by 1:27.

This should be fun.

*the definition of a bulky brush pick up being two grabs with the automated arm on the truck not two visits to a site.
