. . . Page 38 know I had to have a mInIng permit when we had been digging out of that hill for three years. That all of a sudden and especially you could have picked up that phone and said, Gerry, come in here right now and talk about it. I mean, God, if you can't communicate with the people that are doing work with you. If there is a problem and you can't communicate, then I have no business doing business with you. Steve - You mean on the City's side? Gerry - Yes! Steve - as soon as we found out you were digging, we met you out there, Gerry, remember? Cliff - In fact we called you up on the phone and we set up that meeting. Gerry - I tell you what fellows, I've learned a big lesson on this - I've never been in a project...l been doing this for 20 some years...I've never been in a project where we have had difficult lots, any more difficult than this. I've done business with many, many cities. These are difficult lots over here, and I think the mistake that was made is right from the very beginning...that the grading plans...your going to deny this, that the grading plans were never followed - We'll prove this that the grading plan was never followed because now we are doing our thing. You have been working me over and now I'm going to be doing some things to prove that whoever did this thing up there on top of the hill raised that street 3 ft. too high and there has been some serious errors made up there all the way down the line. Were going to prove that some things were done from the very beginning, that have never been right. That is why this project has taken so much dirt, because somebody screwed up!! Were not going to say who, and were going to find out, but someone made some serious mistakes that cost us a lot. Steve - We look forward to it Gerry. Cliff - I have to excuse myself. END!!!!!!!!!!! !
