Sprung a leak

oh that was an easy one
we had the main line break last fall and it cost close to 4 grand to fix
the had to draw a new line from the street, i think it was about 400 feet
then wouldnt you know it, the city had poured a sidewalk over the connection on the main, so guess who got to pay to cut the side walk open, and then to have a new section poured?
