August 17th, 2012 by Joe Burgess

It’s about time someone took notice of whats going on with this boondogle. I looks like the City of Monticello is footing most of the bill.

Everyone says use local contractors,builders etc. this is why they charge more and why some won’t take jobs from our local government. Pay the man for the work he has done. Would you work knowing you are not going to get paid? NO!!!
If the shoe was on the other foot they would have siezed every thing this contractor has. May be he should file liens on the land for the rest of his pay.
