Spotlights on May Street tonight

Red Sox game?  No sewer work.  Must have broken a line because the flood lights were out.    From maria's kitchen to this building has to be 1000 feet of sewer to benefit the apartments in the basement (stop them from flooding), of which I think there are 6. 

Conservatively lets say the total project is $1,000,000.  Now divide that by 6 apartments that equates $166,667 per apartment for their sewerage.    The numbers are just staggering.  too bad we could not divert monies like this into facades for businesses within the expanded CARD versus 100,000.

Bill are you saying they have been working on the May St situation regularly for months now?

Cant take that long to run a 1000 ft of sewer line even if teh trench had to be cut through the hardest of ledge and rock in the area??????????

If this is all to benefit WCG's apts and it sure APPEARS this is the case, who authorizes the money for this work? Does CC have to authorize it ? ity Manager? Is it just part of CDBG $$$$ and city dept heads make the decision(s). MAybe the money was requested from Bacon Hill or Havana Jim???
