Description

Based on the city council meeting on May 18, The city council agreed to pay $249,980 for what looked like a nice 24 foot by 12 foot refuge island with some room for landscaping in it. That would beautify this busy road.

But now with Beck road having been under construction for over a month and a half, it turns out the contractor is only putting in a small piece of sidewalk with a curb around it, in the middle of Beck road.

First it looks horrible. Second, this provides very little protection, and I do not think if gives any real sense of safety. Third, did city council know that this is really what they were agreeing to purchase with a quarter million of our tax dollars.

This is very wasteful spending. I think the tax payers are getting ripped off.

The attachment is what it was supposed to look like, and in another location they showed measurements of the island at 24' x 12'.
