The low bid received from Ashbach Construction, <br /> Inc., in the amount of $331,521.30 is approximately 11 % over the feasibility estimate. <br /> However, the construction bid includes items which would be considered overhead, such <br /> as materials testing. It also includes conservatism ill many of the estimaled street <br /> 1326 En"1lY Park Drive quantities. We believe that many of these items will underrun and the final construction <br /> 51.
