repaired the City needs to remedy the safety aspect of the area first .
However, the agreement is clear. Mayor Levy stated the contributing
factor is that the City required these poles, and now they are in disarray .
The City can pursue remedying the problem for safety issues, however if
there is a legal dispute, after the repairs have been made, then we can
pursue with enforcing the contract.
