Councilman Daniels stated that in spite of what the City's consulting engineer and
his pavement consulting engineer have said about this black t9fpavement he still does
not agree that it meets state highway standards let alone parking lot standards,
because he said he parks allover the place on macadam parking lots and they are not
falling apart because of a little oil dripped on them like this one. We are faced in the
not too distant future with concreting this ramp and probably concreting the drivethru
on the other side because one of these days when we try to get a fire truck out of
here to get to an emergency it will fall through that defective pavement that is out
there and whether the City's engineer and his consultant say it is 800d or not, he
says it is not.

according to specifications by the architect the City should not be liable for such
