The subs say FaulknerUSA's debts have hurt their lines of credit, and some of the subs have been sued themselves because other companies with whom they contracted for services and supplies haven't been paid, either.

Roughly 200 subs were on hand to ask the City Council for help in securing payments for work they did on the Grand Hyatt hotel and Alteza condo project. Executives and owners from several companies told the council that they provided work and supplies and have yet to be fully paid.
