The total amount charged [for the SWMP] to Bonestroo project number 139-98-063 is $201,600. The original contracted budget amount was $106,000. Some of the factors contributing to this difference have been beyond City or Bonestroo control. On the other hand, some can be directly attributable to decisions, requests, and actions by the three primary parties involved - Bonestroo, the City, and the MCWD. We feel that because we are responsible for a portion of the additional hours spent on the Plan, we should accept responsibility for a portion of the excess budget. The difference between the contracted amount and the costs for additional services is $93,400. This represents our efforts up to subnritting the draft SWMP to MCWD and the Met Council (May 2001). Again, work done since then, as part of the review and approval process has been charged to the general billing number. Considering ail factors, including those under our control, and our desire to provide the City with an date, high qualiiy Surface Water Management Plan, we feel that a divi^ of the additional costs [be twee n Orono and Bone stroo] is a reasonable approach. Therefore, we request your review of this matter and a meeting in the near future to work out a solution. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
