Earlier in the month, Sisk Street and parts of Pleasantview Drive were repaved as part of a City Road Bond. The job had been awarded to Tilcon Paving Services. Generally, when roads are repaved each private driveway may get a new apron to smooth out the transition between the drive and street. We heard that various residents reported cracking to their driveways during the repaving that was more than the superficial cracking that typically occurs on the aprons. The party responsible for the cracking was responsible for fixing the damage to private properties. For any questions, concerns, or reports of damage please contact the Mayor's Office at (860) 638 4801.

This happens on every road that is repaved pay the city. You dont ever report that but you find time to report this one driveway. Get a life and report real news.
ReplyDeleteThat's bull. Cracking my butt. This person got a whole new driveway!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of driveway to be considered just an apron. Who they fooling. They where taken care of. The are well off, but get off on getting free extras. They need to feed their egos constantly. Disgusting. That's close to 3-4k of paving if you had to pay for that type of work to be done privately.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the clerk of the works report and photos of the damage, or whoever is in charge of the job for the City? They should be on file as well as a report and photos by the City's insurance manager.
ReplyDeleteThe City should just show the taxpayer everything to remove any doubt this was on the up and up.
Do we know who's driveway this is?
ReplyDeleteIs that Councilman Tom Serra's house?
ReplyDelete@Anon 1:38 pm no this doesn't happen all the time, but it could be the resident paid to have that part of the driveway paved.
ReplyDeleteThat's the Councilmans house
ReplyDelete@ Anon 10pm,
ReplyDeleteIf the Councilman did pay, he would have received a better price than having it done prior to or after the road job was being performed. The contractor had all their equipment on the site while doing a taxpayer bonded road job, and would have given a better price than hauling everything to do one house. I doubt he paid for it out of pocket.
As the Councilman always says, he wants government to be transparent. Maybe if a reporter contacted him, he would be gracious enough to grant them an interview on the subject.
Wait. If this is a political figures home and they didn't pay for the "perk" isn't it the same fraud that Rowland, Ganim and Perez went to jail for???? I for one would like to see the proof of payment! That would clarify the issue.

ReplyDeleteThe councilman will get al the votes. everyone knows john and deb are losers..Sandra wants to get elected ..distance yourself for john and deb... as deb says loser.......your Milardos are just that
I think a special prosecutor should look into this 'perk'. Maybe followed by a grand jury investigation. Who knows...this could make it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Serragate!
ReplyDeleteThis is the second re-paving in 20 years for Sisk Street. I do commend Tilcom for the excellent job they did on the surface. It's smooth, level and joins the curbing on both sides. I also note that new concrete curbs were installed.
ReplyDeleteA question for the general audience: When was that last time your street was repaved? Tavern Circle has not been repaved or repaired since it was installed in 1984.
Come on how can we expect a senior living on a meager 164K state pension with a 3 percent COLA to pay for his own driveway? Have you seen the prices in S&S recently. Do you know what Just For Men costs?
ReplyDeleteIf this is an elected official they should just produce receipts. Easy enough to fake right?
ReplyDeleteDitto Ken. My street is like a wash board! Funny how certain streets get done over and over and some not at all!
I heard a rumor the Board of Ed is going to make sure his family member becomes the next athletic director at MHS. The current one retired, but still comes to work part time. In between, his son is getting experience filling in, to justify he will be qualified when they post the vacancy.
ReplyDeleteThe same people always get taken care of in this town.
Ken you are a a??. Look at all the roads that the city is repaving they all have the same curb.Just worry about keeping Seb the loser in check
ReplyDeleteJ.S should be fired for pushing that kid!
ReplyDeleteTHe kids's name! Rhymes with Lannon Hair!
