This budget was amended on August 15, 2012 to $384,500 to <br /> account for the actual cost of work based on the bids received for this project. [Note: This amount did <br /> not include the $28,946 payment to Columbia Heights for water.] <br /> We included $404,268 in the 2013 utility rate analysis for the combination of these two projects and to <br /> cover the projected costs of water purchased from Columbia Heights. However, the total cost of these <br /> projects has exceeded the budgeted number by $20,543.50. Most of this variance was a result of <br /> unfavorable weather this spring that extended the duration of the project by nearly 4-weeks. Because of <br /> weather we had to pay Columbia Heights and additional $353 per day for water received while our <br /> tower was out of service,and we incurred a slight increase for inspection fees. <br /> htJ <br /> Grant W.
