COI�V21"Satl Ot15 have been �zel.d wri �h both the contractor and �he t►ia property owners involved and it is felt that the b�si solution wouid be to subcut the material three feet (3') as was previausly deterni3ned and rip7ace ii with sand, but tha� thi s sand backf� i 1 coul d be obtai ned from the si te fron surpi us rriateri a] on the parce7s of the property ot�ners. It a7so appears that tne amo�nt of t,he materials to be rep7aced nay nat be as expensive as wa$ origina7ly thought and that this wou7d reduce someR�rhat the amount to� be dea7t with. The contracior ha� agreed ta remove approximately ]4a0 cubic yards of mat4ria1 and v��aste it on the private property at ti�e job site at a cost of $Q.75 (75�j per yard or a total of $1,050.00.
