Hey guys
I'm looking for some feedback on something that's been getting on my nerves lately.
I'm a dirt contractor is a relatively remote small town America location. I got a call from a prospective client a few days ago to give an estimate on some general site prep for a house - tree and building removal. Nothing crazy, nice little $10k or so job.
Today we go by the site because we are working a couple blocks away, and we see the local municipality is in their with their skid loader doing the tree removal.
Maybe the trees are in the city ROW or something and they're doing some basic clearing that is overdue, but my gut says the city is stepping on my toes.
This isn't the first time I've noticed this type of **** going on. Do contractors have any protection from having to compete with their own damn municipalities? I mean I know the answer has to be yes - but can someone provide me with a resource?
