The local governmental unit has met to discuss that, and the permit <br />application is in. As I understand from you, that permit could be issued as early as late <br />October. Anticipating that, we have proceeded to advertise the plans and specifications for <br />bids. The estimated bid date is October 12, 1994. <br /> <br />As you are also aware, City Attorney Peter Beck has received the legal descriptions for the <br />necessary easements, and is in the process of preparing the easement documents. Assuming <br />those can be signed within the next few weeks, we would anticipate a contractor could start <br />the work at the east end, staying away from the wetland until the permit is actually <br />authorized. Given reasonable fall weather, it is realistic to believe that the work would all <br />be completed by winter of 1994. We have set up the plans and specifications such that, in <br />the event that the wetland mitigation permit is held up, or weather prohibits the completion <br />of the project, the existing roadway would stay in use until spring of 1995, when the project <br />would then be completed. <br /> <br />Please let me know if you have any questions, or need additional information regarding this <br />project. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />1326EnergyParkDrive MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br />SI.
