Repainting of 1.5 Million Gallon Elevated Storage Tank
Gentlemen:
On Monday, August 7, 2000 a final walkthrough of the Repainting of the 1.5 Million Gallon Elevated Storage
Tank project was conducted with the City of Coppell and a representative of Advantage Contract Services,
Inc. At that meeting, it appeared all work was complete in accordance with the requirements of the project
specifications. The City of Coppell accepts the project as fully complete and in service as of that date..
Using August 7, 2000 as the acceptance date, this project is 59 calendar days beyond the contract completion
date established by the Notice to proceed dated March 3, 2000. The contract and project specifications allow
for liquidated damages to be assessed in the amount of $500 per calendar day for each day the project remains
incomplete beyond the established completion date. Based on the contract provisions the City of Coppell
chooses to assess the full damages allowed under the contract, the amount totals $29,500. The enclosed
tabulation itemizes the liquidated damages calculations.
In addition, section SC.30.G. of the Special Conditions established that the City of Coppell was to provide the
electric service and meter during construction of the project, while the contractor is responsible for the cost of
the power used. Such cost were to be deducted from the mouthy pay request. ~-^ "': .... ~ ......
From our conversations with the City, we understand Pay Request Number 3, dated June 27, 2000 has not
been paid. Therefore, we are re-issuing a preliminary copy of revised Pay Request Number 3 and Final along
with two copies of the Contractor' s Affidavit of Final Payment and Waiver of Release. Please sign and return
both copies of the Affidavit to this office.
