I'm noticing your solution to a lot of problems is a bare butt whoopin. You have to admire this straight forward approach.

Did the city ever repair or replace the area of your curb they broke out when they were removing leaves?

If they are doing it because someone wants a new street as you say get the block residents organized and oppose it.

If you want info and what is being done and who pays for what quit communicating with the city clerk and get ahold of the project engineer.

Well boys, I have done a bit of municipal engineering work and over the years have never replaced anything that weren't no badder than the next street.
There is usually an underlying issue, so to speak, being water or sewer mains that are failing, storm sewer, maybe time to upgrade gas, electric, etc.
New pavement and base is usually part of the overall project as it is the most cost effective to replace everything at once.
A municipality typically has a yearly budget and scheduled maintenance plan that addresses this. You are likely to be assessed for new sidewalk, curb and gutter etc.
as this adds value to your property. There is usually a public information meeting that addresses all this a year or so beforehand.
If none of this holds true then I concur with Savell's method of justice although schedule 40 pvc seems a bit harsh.

In my town of 25,000 they have been separating the sanitary and storm sewers. They have had streets tore up for 5 or 6 years here and there around town. This maybe the case for you coonman.

They replaced streets in a town near here. Made everyone update their sewers and water lines, then charged interest and garnished wages and tax refunds, lottery prizes and such for those who didn't pay upfront.
