 The new rule states that if a brick street is uncovered, for instance, during a mill and repay project, the council could require the brick street to be returned to its original state. Public Works Director Mike Parsons offered this insight based on a recent project. Brown Street itself cost us $76,301 in just material. If that was brick, we could triple that. So we have to be very prudent about how we're going to do this. Again, I'm just a peon here.
