Re: Proposed Park Development Plan
Waterford -Oaks Park
Pontiac, Michigan
Gentlemen:
We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. Joseph D. Joachim
of the architectural firm of Swanson Associates, Inc.,
dated August 1, 1972, in which our firm was requested to
submit a proposal to provide engineering services as de-
scribed -in the above referenced letter.
We would propose a fee for providing all necessary services
on an hourly basis of 225% of our base payroll rate, but
not to exceed $3,000.00.
It would be necessary for our firm to hire a Soils Engineer
to review, test and evaluate the site soil conditions.
This, we would propose, would be a reimbursable item to our
contract. In discussing this item with a Soils Engineer,
it was determined that the approximate cost would be $2,500.00
to $3,000.00.
Enclosed please find a copy of our company brochure for your
review.
We are very much interested in this project
forward to discussing it further with you at
Feel free to contact us at any time.
Sin rely yours,

AGENDA ITEM ##7
Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission
Park Brochure
It is expected that the copy will be finished and that we will have
printing quotes for the purpose of putting the park brochure out to
print in anticipation that it will be available for distribution by
no later than the first of October. I am sorry that we do not have
the copy available for you to read in advance but due to the tight
schedule we have not been able to get it compiled at this time.
The most important decision to be made here is not necessarily the
content but the cost of the printing and the amount of copies that we
wish to have printed on the first run. These recommendations will be
available to you on the day of our meeting.
