j •. hit; ONO V 2 51985 El HAZER AHD SAWYER, R.C. CONSULTING ENGINEERS November 25, 1985 Mr. Kenneth R. Thompson County Manager 106 East Margaret Lane Hillsborough, NC 27278 Dear Mr. Thompson: With reference to Section D of our Agreement with Orange - County, please see the attached proposals from Soil & Material Engineers relative to the recommended subsurface investigations and R.T. Newcomb, Jr. , relative to the easement and. property acquisition surveys for the Cheeks Township Sewer Improvements, Phase 1. The cost of this work is billable to the County as an Additional Service per Section D of the Agreement. The cost breakdown per the proposal from each subconsultant is as follows: Item Subconsultant Estimated Cost Property Surveys R.T. Newcomb, Jr. $14, 500a Subsurface Investigations S&ME 14, 945 TOTAL ESTIMATED COST $29,445 a Does not include Orange County recording fees for the 10-12 . plats anticipated. It is assumed that this cost will be paid by the County. The present cost ceiling for Additional Services from Section D of our Agreement is $16, 000. It will not be possible to perform the work required for this amount, and it is requested that this ceiling be increased to $30, 000. We attribute this higher cost to anticipated difficulties in completing the property surveys based on our present knowledge of the properties involved and a higher than anticipated cost for the subsurface investigations. We feel that it is important if not absolutely necessary to maintain the level of service described in each subconsultants proposal and recommend that the County approve the increased cost ceiling. 4300 GLENWOOD AVENUE■P.O.BOX 30428•RALEIGH,NORTH CAROLINA 27622•(919)782-8333 OFFICES IN NEW YORK.RALEIGH.AND HOLLYWOOD.FLORIDA
