_ THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM Consultant's fees, fill materials, etc. Therefore the cost to complete the project using the lowest tender is about $71,000. If Council is prepared to proceed with the construction of this change room facility, funds could be found as follows: (a) From the Reserve for Future Capital $43,000 (b) From the Parks Development Reserve $28,000 Total $71,000 The Parks Development Reserve had $60,944 as of December 3lst, 1981. I would draw to Council's attention the fact that the low bid from Raven had a price for the plumbing which was about one-third the average of the other bids. It appears that the subtrade may have made a mistake in bidding the plumbing to the general contraetor. I have checked this with the bidder and he is prepared to stand behind his bid. I raise this issue only to warn Council that there may be difficulties between the Contractor and his subtrade which might result in a delay to the time it takes for construction. We will cover ourselves with a performance bond so that there will be no financial loss to us. F.E. Peters, P. City Engineer
