Dear Mayor Reiman and Council Members:
Transmitted herewith please find the Final Payment Estimate for the above - referenced
project in the amount of $60,169.85 as approved by this office for your review, approval and
further handling. The project is complete at this time, including all punch list items.
The change order reflects increases and decreases in original contract quantities required to
complete the project. The increases in quantities could not, in our opinion, have reasonably
been effectuated by a separately bid contract without unduly disrupting work and imposing
adverse consequences on the Borough and will provide an improved level of service to
residents.
Additionally, we are pleased to report that the Closeout Change Order results in a decrease
in the project cost from the original contract amount of $594,237.82 to an adjusted total of
$593,861.74 for a reduction of $376.08. Enclosed is a two (2) year maintenance bond in the
amount of $89,079.26, or 15% of the final contract amount.
We trust this is the information you require to process payment; however, if there are any
questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
truly yours,
, PE, PP, CME
