Took me 3 months to fix a simple sidewalk trip hazard on my property
Everyone told me it'd be a quick job. Just jack up the concrete slab and pour new mud underneath. Yeah right. First I had to find a contractor willing to do such a small job, which took 2 weeks of calling around. Then the city permit process held me up another month. The actual work took one afternoon but the concrete took 3 days to cure before I could walk on it. Ended up costing $450 for something I thought would be a $150 Saturday project. Anyone else deal with a small fix that turned into a huge headache on the west side?

Did the permit itself cost anything or just the wait?

Nope, the permit itself was free! Just the ridiculous wait time.
