pool repairs

The 100k for pool repairs is included in the LINK contract. I spoke to the guy (Orlando?) right after he made his presentation and he assured me it was included in the bid. is it STILL in the contract? I was also assured by the same guy that there were deadlines and penalties built into THIS construction contract- a unique and novel concept that is the standard and expected in the rest of the construction world, but unheard of in MS construction contracts.

contract deadlines and penalties

Is it possible that this construction contract with Link will have some enforceable deadlines and penalties for noncompliance? The Country Club project didnt have any deadlines or penalties AND neither does the bathroom contract. Deadlines and penalties for noncompliance are a standard facet of ALL construction contracts, EXCEPT ours. Why is that? Is it because the City Attorney FORGOT to put them in (like the bathroom hookups)? Maybe he has never seen or done a construction contract and didnt know what went into one (incompetency)? Or is it possible that his boss, the City Manager, told him NOT to put them in because of some reason we arent aware of yet? Perhaps City officials dont care when they are completed, like the CC enclosure AND the bathrooms. If it takes five years to complete they are pretty much assured a job for that long, no? It has taken two years or more to complete both the CC enclosure (520 sq feet) AND the bathrooms (1116 sq feet). The over/under is five years at this point, and judging from their recent records, the OVER is a LOCK.
