recommended by the Committees) with contract to be executed by the Board of Auditors on
approval of the Buildings and Grounds Committee.
The joint Committees also recommend including in the contract of the low bidder
two extras: (1) tunnel instead of Gilsulate for $1100.00, and (2) water main by-pass in the
well pit for $1058.00. This will make a total contract to be executed with Eames & Brown
In the amount of $83,553.33. The Engineer's estimate of the cost of the project was $85,000.00.
There is available $44,000.00 in the Water Main Fund and your Ways and Means
Committee recommends that the balance of the cost of this project in the amount of
$39,553,33 be appropriated from the Contingent Fund.
