Body
Dear Sir:
At the Board Meeting of September 18, 2014, the Board of Commissioners duly authorized the above stated action, Agenda Item No. 8, File No. 14-1049.
Subsequent to the original authority to advertise transmittal letter, the Board of Commissioners authorized the purchase of three sludge pumps under Contract 14-608-21. These pumps, operated by the District's Hoisters, will augment lagoon pumping operations and will reduce pumping expenditures under this contract by $125,000.00 per year, totaling $375,000.00 for the entire 3-year contract term.
Consequently, the estimated cost of the subject contract has been reduced from $1,830,000.00 to $1,455,000.00.
The estimated 2015, 2016 and 2017 expenditures have been reduced from $610,000.00, $610,000.00 and $610,000.00, respectively, to $485,000.00, $485,000.00 and $485,000.00, respectively.
The bid deposit has been reduced from $36,000.00 to $29,000.00.
All other information provided in the transmittal is correct.
Therefore, it is requested that the aforesaid Board Order of September 18, 2014, be amended to effect the changes set forth above, otherwise to remain in force and effect as heretofore enacted.
