Written Answer to Citation and Complaint Case # 2024-03093

Dear Sir/Madam

This letter is in response to Canyon Barricade's complaint regarding unpaid invoices. We wish to dispute some of the charges or seek clarification, as we could not resolve everything during our previous contact with the company. We intend to pay for the services rendered, but we want to ensure we pay a fair amount for the services and equipment. To show our good faith, we mailed CBS check #2026 for $2,000.00 on March 12, 2024. However, we had trouble reaching Amber, whom we were directed to handle the account. We then emailed her to set up a phone call arrangement, but when she called at the specified time in the day, we specified we would not be available. We promptly emailed her to reschedule, but we never received a response. When we tried to call the number on hand, it was not in service.

To provide you with a better context, we requested Canyon Barricade Services to extend the existing 24-hour closure they had set up and maintained for another company in the same area where we were working. This request was made by an inspector. The closure extension they would set up would be approximately 1100 feet to close the #3 lane from E Los Altos Rd & Power Rd. Per Ubaldo, and the field supervisor, Samy stated, this setup was left as a 24-hour closure and was not removed or reset every day.

Initially, we spoke to Larry Herrera, the owner of Canyon Barricade Services, and asked for pricing information for a specific setup. He agreed to provide the information to Villa Utility Construction, but we only received the invoices later. After reviewing the invoices, we identified discrepancies we needed to clarify with Larry. Received 4/26/2024 ROC Legal

We communicated with Larry over the phone and questioned the invoice. During our conversation, we were able to correct some things and that’s why they issued a credit. We also discovered that 15 vertical panels were missing from the setup, and we advised him to add them to the belonging invoices 3523 and 3550. However, billing had already been submitted, so he would modify the February invoices to include this missed charge.

In February, we requested a turn lane closure, and after receiving the invoices with the charges, it seemed excessive. The invoices show more equipment than needed for this closure type, and the labor cost is exceptionally high. This closure had 24-hour VPS set up for the other contractor, so when closing the turn lane, they didn’t need to set up the entire closure, making unnecessary use of two techs to do this setup.

We have placed notes on each invoice and attached emails for your review. We are also including a map of where the setup took place for your reference, which should clarify the situation.

We hope this letter provides the necessary details to resolve the outstanding invoice issues. We appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to hearing back from you and requesting an informal settlement conference with Canyon Barricade Services.

Sincerely,

Right Turn Lane Closure

I am disputing the charges on this invoice because a turn lane is a smaller area that doesn't require as much equipment as mentioned in the invoice. Moreover, the VPS was placed for the other contractor as a 24-hour setup, so I am confused why we are sending two technicians to close it. Flashers/steady lights Only one day credit was appried to this invoice for 2 tech labor are standards for 24- Page 1 hour set up.
