City Taxpayers Get The Shaft Again!

Last Monday night the City Council once again gave yet another free ride to the Delaware Elevator Company. However, this time the price tag went from the $90,000.00 range all the way up to $150,800.00 to repair the elevator in the Parking Garage.

I have stated this in the past. I have researched brand new elevators that include the shaft and everything new and they cost somewhere around $140,000.00 brand new. To repair an elevator for $150,000.00 is just unbelievable but you people just sit back and watch these fools line their pockets right in front of your face.

Oh, let's top this whole story off with, there were 13 bids sent out to 13 different companies. Guess how many returned their bid? ONE! That's right, Delaware Elevator! Nobody else seemed to be remotely interested in bidding the job! Why did the City have to solicit companies for this job, rather than simply advertising it? Could it be that Delaware Elevator had the heads up as to the job not being as bad as it was written? Nevertheless, I smell another rat and I've never been wrong yet!
