REC'D NOV 25 1985 <br /> ry HAZEN AND SAWYER, P.G. <br /> CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br /> November 25 , 1985 <br /> Mr. Kenneth R. Thompson <br /> County Manager <br /> 106 East Margaret Lane <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Dear Mr. Thompson: <br /> With reference to Section D of our Agreement with Orange <br /> County, please see the attached proposals from Soil & Material <br /> Engineers relative to the recommended subsurface investigations <br /> and R.T. Newcomb, Jr. , relative to the easement and property <br /> acquisition surveys for the Cheeks Township Sewer Improvements, <br /> Phase 1. The cost of this work is billable to the County as <br /> an Additional Service per Section D of the Agreement. The cost <br /> breakdown per the proposal from each subconsultant is as follows: <br /> Item) Subconsultant Estimated Cost <br /> Property Surveys R.T. Newcomb, Jr. $14, 500a <br /> Subsurface Investigations S&ME 14, 945 <br /> TOTAL ESTIMATED COST $29,445 <br /> a Does not include Orange County recording fees for the 10-12 <br /> plats anticipated. It is assumed that this cost will be paid <br /> by the County. <br /> The present cost ceiling for Additional Services from <br /> Section D of our Agreement is $16, 000. It will not be possible <br /> to perform the work required for this amount, and it is requested <br /> that this ceiling be increased to $30,000. We attribute this <br /> higher cost to anticipated difficulties in completing the <br /> property surveys based on our present knowledge of the properties <br /> involved and la higher than anticipated cost for the subsurface <br /> investigations. We feel that it is important if not absolutely <br /> necessary to maintain the level of service described in each <br /> subconsultants proposal and recommend that the County approve the <br /> increased cost ceiling. <br /> 4300 GLENWOOD AVENUE•P.O.BOX 30428•RALEIGH,NORTH CAROLINA 27622•(919)782-8333 <br /> OFFICES IN NEW YORK,RALEIGH,AND HOLLYWOOD,FLORIDA <br />
