It's just maddening that it's still not complete and new problems have arisen such as the bathtub they installed not being level and water from the shower pouring out of the tub's edges onto the floor...
The agreement has technically been broken, Duty Council suggested we wait until the 22nd to reopen the case to see if LL#3 will make the payment since money buys our patience. In the meantime, some new people have been photographing the building from the parking lot, which means LL#4 could be coming soon (this is how LL#2 and #3 came into the picture, well dressed people outside looking at the building and taking photos...
