Dean,
I think I understand all the issues. Let me know when you guys have made a decision on the proposed solution.

Keith,
The problem that Joe is not grasping is his contractor has already
started his work. The Column has been removed, the light that was there
is gone and he has built another structure in this place. As for
restoring what was there, if given the okay from Marty and Tery, the
conduit and wiring will be connected and brought to the median area, and
checked to see if power is to this area, that is all. Clay does not t
know what was there before, he did not even know there was not any power
to the median until recently, which is the first thing you would think
he would have checked. There was power to the median before, and given
Marty's or Tery's approval, will be installed, but to a location in the
center of the Penfolds median, not to a light, it has been removed by
Joe's contractor, or to Joe's contractors stuff.
Any further correspondence or meetings related to this matter must
include myself, Marty, and Tery since Joe is including an attorney in
his correspondence. Ultimately, it is Marty and Tery's decision if this
is to find any resolve.
Marty & Tery,
Joe has returned the $500 check with a letter attached. The letter and
the check are in the top right had drawer of my desk. I have not read
or scanned the letter into JRJ's system, due to trying to work with
Keith on this and try to find some resolve.
Thank you,
Dean Dumke

Keith,
I have forwarded this on to Clay and his team to review the work as it
relates to restoring what was there. I spoke to Clay and he is clear in
the belief that if all is replaced or reconnected as was, there should
be no issue with his gear and/or installments.
I'll await his feedback and hopefully we are closer to a resolution.

Joe,
I'm glad you are agreeable to the suggested resolution. I think we are
close to working this out. I agree that this all would have worked
better had you and JRJ agreed in writing what you were asking them to do
up front. It would have saved us all some heartache. I believe that
all involved have worked in good faith to provide a quality job. I
think there was just a misunderstanding of what was agreed on.
I have attached the written proposal from Mel's Electric that I received
from JRJ. I hope this answers your request for a written document.

Keith, got your message but on another call that may last a
bit....wanted to
respond (audience smaller intentionally).
(8/15/2011) Keith Marvin - Re: Bethel: The Reserve-status Feb 2Page 3
I am amenable to paying the delta on the upgraded conduit...total of
$725, less
$500 check, netting to $225 from us. It would have been nice to know
upfront
this cost and, as previously stated, the 4 inch is far more than what is
needed
to support additional capacity. So be it!
As for electrical restoration, Dean has mentioned the initial install
was
non-compliant, hence part of the reason it was dug up. We insist all
electrical
be restored to a functional state as was the case prior to construction.
You
also have an e-mail thread that captured Clays observations which are
essential
to ensure our entry project is functional when JRJ leaves. The
aforementioned
math does not allude to this activity and I am reasonably certain this
is not a
"no charge event" from JRJs sub contractor.
Can you please address this major concern in writing?
I should be available to speak around 3:30 if you'd like but at this
juncture we
need to see in writing the course of action.
Thanks again for attention to this.

gents, not sure (but certainly understandable) if the weather has
created some
delay in your findings. If not, we would appreciate an update so we can
commence our project once the weather subsides.
thank you!

Hey Dean
Keith shared the quote from your electric sub-contractor and in principal I agreed to
incur the difference in "check credit" and the upgraded conduit (approx $225). What
isn't clear to me is if the electrical work that is proposed will replace what was
actually there prior. I sent the bid over to Clays organization to see if this work does
what is needed to get whole. I get the impression is does not.
Again, we seek no "free electrical upgrades" and I will justify the expense for the
upgraded conduit. I just need to know that what was there is replaced as before. If
that bid covers it, then we are getting closer to putting this all behind us.
thanks, we patiently await some progress on the matter.
