Phoney problem

Those of you being inconvenienced because of the complete closing of Country Club road should be consoled to know that the city claims it is not their fault.  According to the city’s web site:

“This unanticipated complete closure of the roadway is necessary following the discovery of buried telephone lines and related infrastructure that were not previously identified by AT&T.”

Any of us that have dealt with AT&T over the years know that the phone company keeps detailed records of what it has and where.  Could it be that the city failed to talk to AT&T?

While the published construction schedule for the new ball park is 11 months, the published construction schedule for Country Club road is 18 months.  Some things are more important.

We deserve better

    To be fair, you’d have to see who originally buried the line. Just because AT&T owns the line now, doesn’t mean that they buried it. It could have been buried by another telecom company that AT&T acquired after the fact.

    While that doesn’t absolve AT&T of the problem, it’d shed light on the book keeping aspect.
