A couple of weeks ago, the city street department invaded our side street and tore out the curb and gutter, the driveway approaches and the asphalt. We were informed that everything would be replaced. We have two lots, and several years ago paid hundreds of dollars to have an approach installed on the extra lot so we would have access to the garden, etc. Well, sure enough, it was not replaced. As a result, the DH contacted the City Manager and the City Engineer, who stated that we didn't need it and weren't getting it! After a visit to the area and a lecture by an angry senior citizen, the approach will be replaced. Sometimes you CAN fight City Hall and come out a winner!
