    $15 an hour for the union groundskeeper, minimum six hour shift.

    $5 depreciation for using the ladder.

    $75 for health and safety

    $25 an hour for the manager to answer a phone call about where the ladder was

    $5 mileage on the maintenance truck.

    Shit adds up.

      alternatively they could hypothetically just remove it during routine maintenance. Also its rather unlikely that they’d really need to use the ladder- I rather doubt people are scaling sculptures to slap them on things. it’s going to be mostly in reach of the ground.

      A bigger problem is that most cities and towns will have an ordinance requiring immediate removal- meant to combat graffiti; and while most cities won’t be arsed to follow the ordinance themselves when Karen calls… well, it’s just less annoying to send the dang truck on a special job.
