Gentlemen:
of Minnesota
Re: Estimate December 5,,1961
Jack i'ischer Well and Pump
Company - Estimate W-34-H,
5chedule #1, Estimate #1 -
$23,811.30.
I am advised ]�y the Consulting Engineer that the total amount
7b
probably to be paid under this contract is in the sum of $37,800.00,
the present estimate calling for payment in the sum of $23,811.30.
The contract provided for liquidated damages to the City in the sum of
$100.00 per day fo; each day following November 15, 1961, that the
work was not complete. It is claimed at this time by.the contractor,
that failure to complete was due to delay for which he, the contractor,
was not responsible. The Consulting Engineer advises me that there �s
some merit to the claim.
Pending determination of the validity of such claim and full under-
standing with persons responsible, I recommend there be deducted
from this estimate payment an amount equal to the liquidated damages
otherwise to be recovered, i.e. an amount equal to $100.00 for each
day now past the aompletion date of November 15, 1961. Also, that
City notify contractor that it is reserving judgment on this claim,
and neither waiving nor asserting any rights under the contract.
Signed:
Andrzw G. Kohlan
