Quincy Public Buildings Department Public Humiliation Works!
Part VI – The Full Monty!
In what has given rise to an ongoing summer series, public humiliation not only works, it also gives rise to the Full Monty!
Saville Avenue in Quincy Center has long been paved – so to speak, that is – with a patchwork of pothole patches.
Now, however, after the City Council read a Saville Avenue resident’s valid complaint letter to the City of Quincy’s Public Building Commissioner about both the woeful condition of Public Buildings’ office buildings that are also located on Saville Avenue as well as the sorry shape of the road itself at the final City Council meeting of the season before its summer vacation, Saville Avenue is now receiving a long-overdue complete makeover as its patchwork of pothole patches have been fully removed down to the underlying ground.
This recent development is on top of new concrete sidewalks as well as resetting most curbstones as well as adding some new curbstones where curbing has been realigned to accommodate a parking “bump-in” and redo handicapped curb cuts.
In turn, as a public service to other Quincy residents who reside along woefully ill-paved local roads, see the complaint letter that prefaced this makeover as a template to lodge their own complaints.
One down — how many more to go?
