Mr. Ray presented the report to the Authority. He stated Tuttle and Associates was to do the
construction staking for the sanitary sewer survey, however, Tuttle was not able to do the
surveys. Requests were issued for quotes to provide sewer line staking with Cantrell and
Associates receiving a low quote of $3,500.00. In addition, drainage structures are to be staked
by a surveyor and Cantrell and Associates provided a $2,200.00 quote on this procedure. Mr.
Carr presented a brief explanation regarding problems with the sewer line along the east side of
the property. Mr. Cantrell investigated this problem and staked the manholes in accordance with
the design drawings. It was found that the manholes were in the water at the pond. Cantrell
and Associates will redesign the sewer system, do the easements and profiles and resurvey,
shifting the manholes 10' to move them out of the water for an additional $2,800.00 making the
total amount $8,500.00.
After lengthy discussion, motion was made by Ms. Lawrence to approve an expenditure of
