ACHD has, on two separate occasions, placed construction road signs in my front yard, causing damage to my grass. On the first occurrence, I relocated the signs myself. On the second occurrence, I contacted them to request that they relocate the signs. ACHD replied to my request with a snarky email stating that the signs were on their property and sent me a copy of the property map with red lines indicating my property versus theirs. They also included a statement saying that they would 'be a good neighbor' and go ahead and move the signs anyway. Apparently, they aren't willing to admit fault and also don't know how to read their own map. The map they sent clearly indicated the property where signs sat was my property, not that of ACHD. I had looked at the property lines map prior to emailing them about moving the signs off my property.

ACHD also consistently extends project deadlines. They are not expedient at repairing potholes or other road damage.
