INSPECTION REPORT
PERMIT NO.: 10025
PERMIT DATE: November 25, 1980
CONTRACTOR:. Ray Henry
OWNER: Ronald Rigney
ADDRESS: 2612 Bret
REMARKS:
Mr. Jack Ayers, the City of Salina's Construction
Inspector, met with Mr. Ray Henry at the above address
to discuss construction requirements for the driveway
approach modifications on November 25, 1980. He advised
Mr. Henry to compact the subgrade before placing concrete
pavement and to conform to the "Specifications for Concrete
Work".
It was observed on December 4, 1980 that the driveway
approach had been placed. The contractor failed to notify
the City Engineer's office prior to placement of the concrete
for this driveway approach. The expansion joint was omitted
at street side of the sidewalk section; a portion of the
driveway approach was constructed with a concrete mix not
meeting our minimum specifications; and settlement had
commenced to occur in the subgrade, resulting in a finished
grade that did not match adjacent concrete grades.
The contractor refused to correct the inferior workman-
ship on this project. The owner, Mr. Ronald Rigney, then
filed suit in Small Claims Court against Mr. Raymond Henry.
