$1500?! I'd like to see some itemization on that amount.

It’s less than $200 per statue. The company they’re contracting likely has a trip charge just to show up. 😂

It’s totally not a company owned or affiliated with a city council member. No one would ever do such a thing and charger a ridiculous amount for it.

Nope, not that indeed.

All jokes aside, they are all outside statues. They have to stand up to the elements. Just buy a small bottle of goof off and a sponge. Done! I can do it for a lot less than what is being charged.
