The residential road resurfacing pro- gram is one of the county commission’s top priorities, and Oliver said he is working up a proposal for commissioners at their June 22 meeting. He said the details are still being worked out, but he made clear the county expects D.A.B. to abide by the contract. “We’ve got something I think will work,” he said. Asked if an alternative is to bring in an- other company to work with D.A.B. to fin- ish the roads in time this year, Oliver said that’s possible but not preferred. The Chronicle reported that D.A.B. has had similar delay issues on state highway projects, including U.S. 19 widening in Homosassa, which is nearly complete but a year behind schedule, state officials said. Oliver said the company seems eager to correct the problem. “With the attention it’s received,” he said, “they’ve put a lot more resources into it the last week or two.”
