DeChantal <br /> 12209 State Hwy 18•PO Box 315•Brainerd•MN•56401 <br /> 218428-4636 <br /> September 22,2014 <br /> To Whom it May Concern: <br /> DeChantal Excavating,LLC respectfully requests an extension for the following project 2014 North <br /> Washington Avenue Improvements-City of Pequot Lakes with a current substantial completion date <br /> of September 26,2014 and a current final completion date of October 29,2014 for the following <br /> reasons: <br /> 1. On August 2e we gave notice to our concrete subcontractor,Beach Construction,that they <br /> could begin work on the retaining wall on or about August 28th. Beach Construction explained <br /> to us they could not get started on the project until September 15th due to the amount of rain and <br /> rains days they experienced in August,basically they were two weeks behind. We immediately <br /> tried contacting and subcontracting the concrete work to another subcontractor. We talked to <br /> Knife Lake Concrete first and they were in the same predicament. We then contacted Ferber, <br /> Inc.on August 26th and he stated they were available and could get right on the job,so we <br /> scheduled them to start August 29th or September 2' . That was the last contact we had with <br /> them as thereafter they would not return our phone calls. We rescheduled with Beach <br /> Construction for the September 15th start date as continued calls to any concrete subcontractor <br /> produced the same result-all were behind with work and unable to accommodate an additional <br /> work load. Based on this challenge please accept our revised completion date. <br /> 2. Due to supplier availability of materials and products for the following items remaining to <br /> complete the project,please accept the amended completion dates: <br /> A. Handicap Parking Symbols- October 23,2014 <br /> B. Stone Veneer Columns Installation- October 28,2014 <br /> C. Street Light Installation- November 26,2014 <br /> D. Metal Benches- November 26,2014 <br /> Please accept our revised substantial completion date of November 30,2014 and a final completion date of <br /> May 1,2015. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Al DeChantal <br /> President <br /> DeChantal Excavating,LLC <br />
