Dadeville may face lawsuit over courthouse square billing dispute

A dispute over the total bill for Dadeville's courthouse square renovation project may be sending the City of Dadeville to the courthouse.

While the courthouse square project has been ostensibly complete for over a year now, the city has yet to receive the final bill from hired contractor Gillespie Construction. The city approved the contract two years ago, originally slated for $1.45 million. But the difference between what the contractor and the city's hired engineering firm think the bill ought to be, according to city attorney Robin Reynolds, may be "substantial."
