Palisadians on Monte Hermoso Drive had just gotten used to their newly resurfaced roadway when they awoke on Monday, Oct. 2, to the sound of jackhammers tearing up the pavement anew.
Neighbors did a little “digging” and determined that the construction was on account of a minor city oversight: The recent roadwork had paved over the street’s existing manhole covers, leaving them buried about three inches below the new roadbed.
They’ll take another crack at the paving soon.
