■ <br /> , <br /> Page 2 <br /> tell us that settlement has stopped. To the contrary he feels that settle- <br /> ment has not stopped and that we will still get some rotation in the wall <br /> eventhough it may be very slight. The abutments, as <br /> stabitizin � nd ► you know, are for <br /> gla preventing any additional rotation of the wall. Mr. hood <br /> recommends that if the County wishes not to use the abutments that they <br /> measure thelopening in the wall at this time and monitor it every thirty <br /> days for the next six months. Obviously we do not have six months but <br /> we could nonitor it for the length of time we have. We should indicate <br /> to Security Building Company not built the exterior concrete slab and wall <br /> until the very last so that we may continue to monitor, and if you change <br /> your mind it would be easily placed. <br /> The requested amount for the Chapel Hill gravel does seem very high as you <br /> and I both appreciate. However, in reviewing it this morning with Mr. Setzer <br /> I was in agreement with his per hour and per unit cost and had no way to re- <br /> fute the amount of time or material that he was estimating. It does seem to <br /> me that he is requesting double payment on some items but whether this would <br /> come out to be significant I am not able to say at this time. <br /> Mr. Hood also Indicated that we could use 21 feet of gravel in place of Chapel <br /> Hill gravel 'provided we do tamp to some solid condition. If you are able to <br /> get a conveyor as you say perhaps we would save some money there also. In <br /> your discussions with Mr. Setzer I am sure you will explore all those pos- <br /> sibilities. <br /> corely, <br /> S K <br /> lF <br /> Jose.° L, Nass f Lt <br /> Ar- itect <br /> ! <br /> c: Mr. Ken Thompson, Manager <br /> Mr. Richard Whitted, Chair <br /> Orange County Commissioners <br />
