You Aren't Finished, Are You, Luizzi?

One section of street included in this year's CHIPs repaving project was the northern end of North 3rd Street, north of State Street to its terminus. The contractor for that project, Luizzi, finished repaving the street a week or two ago, about a week after they installed two new ADA pedestrian curb ramps at State Street. (All intersections along a street being repaved are required to get new curb ramps and ADA mats.) 

With that in mind, why the heck didn't Luizzi take care of the 4 curb ramps at the alley where someone marked the pavement to remind them where to dig and install the ramps? Will Luizzi return to complete the street? Or just forget about it? Don't they know that Peter "Complete Streets" Spear lives in that neighborhood and that he might soon be Hudson's mayor?

Step one:  white lines and "ADA LUIZZI."   Step two? 
Watch your step (three)! 

Presumably, Luizzi is being paid to create those 4 pedestrian curb ramps while Rob Perry is keeping an eye on things to make sure Luizzi does everything they are supposed to do as part of this year's CHIPs contract with DPW. You know, as is expected of professionals.  Completely, properly and in a timely fashion.



Why on earth didn't Luizzi install the 4 ramps at the alley
while they were installing the ramps at State?
