Dayton Construction

Here's the link to the previous Dayton Construction post.

When they first brought in wood chips to finish the ground under the playscape, they didn't bring enough. So they brought more chips in a week or more ago. But when they brought them in, they took away the little bulldozer that they had used to spread them previously that they then left sitting idle for weeks. So finally yesterday, after 16 months, they managed to complete moving the playscape about 20 feet.


The city took 16 months to complete a project that probably could have been done in a day and definitely could have been completed in a week.

They're going to have a ribbon cutting ceremony for the Great Miami Boulevard project on Monday. Isn't that special. Apparently the project started in May, not June as I noted, so the whole thing took the city 17 months to do about three months of work. Taxpayers paid $3.6 million. Of course neither our park nor the new decorative park along closer to Main are complete, and the construction created problems for locals which I'll document later.

Now they've torn up all of Riverview along the McPherson Town levee to put in new decorative street lights.
