Commissioner Tippin agreed that this is a matter of good faith. He was concerned that the contractor sat in this very room and did not apprise us of this change. He was very anxious about the restoration of Wabasso Park and cautioned that it will take an awful lot of restoration to satisfy him. He asked that staff relay that message to the contractor.

The Consultant is requesting that the payment of their remaining administration fee, $52,100, be paid over a twelve month period instead of a seventeen month period as specified in the Original Agreement between the County and CRA. The resulting monthly payment to CRA would be $4,341.67 for twelve months, instead of $3,064.70 for seventeen months.
