Rd. 15 and North Shore Drive <br /> Sanitary Sewer Improvements <br /> Dear Members of the Council: <br /> As noted in Glenn Cook's August 6th letter to Mr. Dick Benson, bids taken on <br /> the above referenced project were considerably higher than the preliminary <br /> report estimate. We have the following comments as to reasons for the high <br /> bids: ---- - <br /> 1 .) Tight work�g conditions - Due to resident concerns about dest"ru�tion of <br /> personal property we required that the contractor "back cast" a12 dirt <br /> excavated for sewer pipe placement. Contractors have indicated that this <br /> item alone added 50� to 100� to the pipe placement costs. <br /> , 2. ) Close proximity to Lake Minnetonka - The wet and bad soil conditions along <br /> the North Shore Drive, Qrono Lane, Ferndale Road areas had a larger <br /> influenee on the bid prices than we had anticipated. <br /> � 3.) Easement Negotiations - In discussions with residents we have been <br /> req uired to alter alignment of sewer, add manholes, plant trees, <br /> transplant trees, and miscellaneous other items. <br /> In conclusion, this job has developed into a much more difficult job than <br /> anyone anticipated at the time that the preliminary costs were produced. �e <br /> restrictions that have been put into the contract will have adverse effects on <br /> project progress and have affected the bid prices accordingly. <br /> Yours very truly, <br /> BONESTR00, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br /> ,��,- j�� - ;,,,_ <br /> �%/,%/>_ ' "-�7 L. �c1�� <br /> Steven M.
