A businessman said he was so frustrated and disgusted with the condition of a public bathroom in the Michigan tourist town of Saugatuck that he decided to cleaned it himself. Apparently, he must have been happy with the results as he proceeded to bill the city $156 for his work.

Steve Oswald stated that customers of his shop complained about the condition of the public bathroom. He proceeded to check it out and said he "wouldn't have sat down there." He called a city official and soon got to work, spending 45 minutes cleaning.

City Manager Kirk Harrier said the bathroom typically is cleaned twice daily, and he thinks it got dirty quickly because it was a busy tourist weekend.

Harrier said the city appreciates Oswald's effort, but city council hasn't decided whether to pay him.

    I wonder how he calculated the value of his cleaning? $156 for 45 minutes work seems awfully steep... And I'm guessing it''s waaaay more than a regular toilet cleaner would get - possibly in a week!
