PG&E now wants the *riser pipe* relocated, not just the meter swung around to connect to the new stub-out (click on photo to backtrack). It has taken three months of haggling just to get their technician to come out to do the swing-around, which they had already approved! This was all triggered by their proximity rule to the electric meter (apparently not part of their rules when the house was originally built and meters first installed in the 60's). All this hassle just to upgrade the overhead wires!
But having lost so much time over the summer and fall (they don't return calls, repeatedly handing off to somebody else who delays again and again not returning calls, etc., etc.), the good news now is that they'll do all the work at their expense, including concrete breaking and trenching. Or so they say.
After so many broken promises, I don't know what to believe. The saga continues...
