What I heard Mike, was that with the high oil prices presently, the concrete cost was comparable. Plus, the concrete would last longer. It seemed funny to me though, that they didn't replace the old curbing in the front.

You all need to go to a City Commisioners meeting and ask questions. I can't believe you all voted for some of the jerks you voted for. But oh well, I am gone and I am not coming back. But I do like to chat with you all here.

Poots, that 450,000 bucks only allowed them to pour concrete around the front and a little way on the sides. That didn't allow them to pave the entire parking lot!
