An important item discussed in our meeting of August 29th which was not acknowledged in your letter, is that in order for the City to proceed with providing an alternative union approved electrical contractor to complete the electrical work, the partnership needs to acknowledge that they will pay for any and all additional costs associated with terminating the current contract with Ridgedale Electric and additional expense associated in hiring the replacement contractor. At the time of our discussions, we had not been able to document the total cost impacts. Since that time, I have been provided with the attached correspondence dated August 19, 1990 from Ridgedale Electric. As noted, _they are requesting "full and final payment" for their services in order to be removed from the contract. A crude estimate of the cost implications to the part- nership from this settlement would be approximately $5,000. As we had discussed, we did not anticipate that Ridgedale would take this extreme position and we will continue to attempt to nego- tiate this issue, however, timing:is obviously an important ele- ment of this equation. Unfortunately, until the City receives acknowledgement from the partnership that they will assume all costs associated with this change in contractors, we will not be able to proceed with authorizing Killmer Electric or any other electrical contractor to 1 I David J.

' Although Alber Construction is a union contractor, Ridgedale Electric union. Late in the morning of the 17th, representatives of the union (Electr- ' - ical) and the construction manager (D.W. Hutt) directed the City contractor to remove Ridgedale Electric from the site because they are not union. The legalities of this action are an issue which could be discussed at length, no doubt. What I am concerned about at this time is the practicality: ' - We have been examining alternatives for completion of the work. Alber Construction has agreed to continue with those aspects of the work which are within the contract and covered by union labor. However. we cannot proceed with completion of the electrical work because of Ridgedale Electric. 1 ' AW APPl as(F Tht D:`1 11►AKetc.E.VA.SCw alma.FL'..
