We have a set of plans and specifications on file in my office for your examination. Previously the Council ordered the preparation of plans and specification on June 18, 2001. Because this project is privately financed, the developer has waived his rights to the Chapter 429 assessment process and specifically to the bidding requirements with the attached letter. Therefore, the bids will be received with only a two -week advertisement instead of the customary three weeks. This was also done for the Evermoor 4th and Marcotte Forcemain project. The bid opening date has been set for August 3, 2001 at 10:00 a.m. at the Community Center.

We also understand that by reducing the advertisement for bid period we may incur increased project costs.

We accept the risk and or cost implications that this may impose upon the project. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
