Not trying to be confrontational, but I'm wondering why your insurance company is not handling this? They should have paid for everything (less deductible) and been working with the city to get themselves made whole; it is what you pay them for!

If you used less $ than that (or like me also sell solar back to the grid), you will have a zero or negative balance, and hence nothing to pay. You still have a "bill", though, that you can see on their website.

Ward 14 Shelley Peterson was born in Peru and something like 90% of people from Peru have at least some mixed indigenous ancestry.

It was just as loud up the hill, and was still going on at 4:30am when I had to get up. Yeah, it's some crazy construction going on, has unfortunately happened before and will happen again.

I would say mildly more expensive than average, but I already have a service contract with them, so all the hassle save is a an overall net-net win for me. I'd rather save hours of my life than a hundred bucks.

I use GEM and let them hire from in-house or to their sub-contractors. Now I don't have to hunt down and test out a bunch of different people.

Definitely plus-plus-plus this! Just went there for the first time a few months ago, and it is a fantastic museum bottom to top!

I'm sorry, I know you were trying to be a nice, reasonable, and logical person, but almost everyone else was out to screw you over and did so (it is their job to protect their company's interests, not yours). You never should have accepted or signed anything from the insurance company if that was the way they were acting and instead needed to get a lawyer involved. It might be too late because of the actions you have taken, but you should get a free consultation and see if one can do something for you. Even a lawyer just calling the City one time might make the check show up magically tomorrow, so the $300 would be worth it.
Just as an FYI, the amount is not the issue. I dealt with a $100K claim at an unoccupied property I was involved with and never touched the money myself; everything went between the insurance company and the contractors. I was lucky enough in this case that the contractors did all the battling with the insurance company so I did not have to get a lawyer involved myself. A lot of contractors don't like doing this, so YMMV.
