Default The bear and fiber optic cable.

Two unrelated topics. Has the bear who visited Lowe’s, Publix, and inside the villages in back of those businesses been found or just disappeared. Next they are putting in fiber optic cable in my neighborhood. They were in the Odell circle neighborhoods last year and now the neighborhoods off Bailey Trail. They dig up your grass and since I have a corner lot about six areas of grass dug up. Before they started they sent letter saying grass would be replaced and hardly notice a difference. They replaced mine and did a terrible job. Fortunately had a card with supervisors name and he came over 10 minutes after I called and said it would be replaced next week. Anyone else have similar problems.

and I'm sure the cable is nowhere near placed as deep as it should be (18") minimum. Be careful when planting things

This is the main fiber cable and it is buried at the right depth. I know it's an inconvenience and this does happen but from what I've seen they do a good job repairing the lawn as long as you water it properly. I've spoken with Villagers who get all crazy with the digging but at the end of the day everything is put back and you won't know they were ever there. You did the right thing calling the supervisor.
