The mains have passed City of Bend performance testing requirements. The private roads, curbs, and pathways have also been completed.

The original estimate for the construction was $1,661,659.10. This estimate shows a final amount for construction of $2,531,371.60. The reason for the difference is that there were quite a few items where the quantity was different from the original estimate but the unit prices were the same and I noticed that they had added a couple of other items that were not in the original estimate. Let me know if you need anything else.

We need to make the first whereas condition similar to the Phase 2 maintenance bond which is attached. The first whereas statement should read: Improvements to roads and utilities for Phase 3 at the Cascade Highlands/Tetherow Destination Resort IA -0712, Deschutes County Document No. 2007-610.

The maintenance bond for the County needs to be 10% of the total construction costs. I have attached a spreadsheet which shows the total construction cost as well as the 10% bonding amount. We ran into some issues/snags with respect to the bonding language when Proterra went through this exercise with Phase 2 (A1/A2) last month. I have attached a copy of their final maintenance bond draft for an aid. Also, I spoke with Anthony Raguine about the maintenance bond for Phase 3 and he mentioned Laurie Craghead sent • him further bonding conditions/instructions. Please find the attached 'Bond conditions' from Laurie Craghead. Please give me a call if you have any questions.
