Mayor Angel Johnston, who has been highly critical of SAFEbuilt at recent meetings, said her experiences with them were one of the reasons she ran for mayor. “One of the reasons I ran for mayor is because of the horrible experiences I’ve had with your company,” Johnston said to SAFEbuilt representatives at Tuesday's meeting. “I’ve priced out contractors for people that can replace you and it’s not going to be that hard.” Despite the criticism, commissioners generally agreed they were willing to continue working with SAFEbuilt while monitoring whether customer service improves.
