hydepark Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 story in the Chronicle today about a builder who is barred from further city projects INCOMPTENCE IN CITY CONTRACTS >>> If you archive the houston chronicle for 2/14/02 Kim Canon .....Jorge Casimiro and Tom Thibodeau as Stature construction did the same sort of thing to the city of bunkerhill police station. It had $120,000 dollars worth of mold remediation and the project was 7 months behind. The city fired them... so they just change the name to University Development and are back at the city coffers once again trying to get this city to enter into more contracts with them. The city has a bond company to protect them from this sort of incompetence... we the public have no one. University development got appropriated 1.3 million in 2003 and they were back at the agenda meeting 2 weeks ago trying to get another $500,000 (for a subdivision called southway), from afforable housing and the water and sewer fund. There is a woman named Hilda Delgado that is the President of this company. Whose job is it to investigate the companies the city does business with? Who ever it is they have let this city down miserably. Thank you Mayor White and Councilwoman Ada Edwards for pulling this appropriation from the agenda and trying to do the right thing. It is refeshing to see our officals in action, not just saying what they are going to do. I judge them by their actions and they proved they care what happens to this city and I was very proud of them both The papers should have applaued them, they deserved our thanks for stopping this "shuck and jive" corporate umbrella, these people hiding under different companies to avoid responsibility. I want to know who gets all this money? Don't you? They will be back how will we know next time what the name of the new company will be ? Watch the agendas for the city meetings and try to help and watch out for these people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
