NORTH PINE <br />AGGREGATE INC. <br />14551 Lake Drive 1 Forest Lake, MN 55025 1 651.464.6802 <br />October 10, 2012 <br />City of Ramsey <br />7550 Sunwood Drive NW <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br />Attn: Shane Nelson <br />Re: CSAH 83 (Armstrong Blvd) & 147 / Sunwood Drive Intersection <br />Intersection Improvements; Request for Completion Extension <br />Shane, <br />Due to unforeseen circumstances out of North Pine Aggregate's control, I would like to <br />request an extension for completion. Currently, all work under our contract, except <br />maintenance work and final clean up shall be completed on or before November 15, <br />2012. At this time, there is a possibility that the Irrigation & Landscaping work may <br />need to finish in the spring, due to numerous utility relocations & conflicts. We <br />anticipate that the Irrigation will be fully installed, but charging of the system (weather <br />dependent) may need to hold off until spring. There are approximately 10 plantings that <br />are to be installed around the Irrigation Box that will act as a natural shield, these may or <br />may not be installed this year depending on what the weather does. <br />As stated in my letter dated September 27, the Mast Arms for the Signal System are <br />scheduled for delivery at some point in December. The timing for the Mast Arms has not <br />yet changed. All of the bases with the exception of one (due to utility conflicts) are <br />currently installed. Once the Mast Arms are delivered it is anticipated that installation <br />will take place immediately. <br />Currently there are various outstanding pending decisions that need to be made in order <br />to continue with positive progress. On the 146 Avenue portion of the project, there are <br />some proposed changes still being discussed in regards to Storm Sewer modifications and <br />the conflicting Easement issue with Wiser Choice Liquor. The Irrigation Service location <br />is still being addressed, along with numerous Light Pole relocations progress for <br />Sidewalk installation has been hindered. There is a chance that some sidewalk may not <br />be installed this fall. <br />An Equal Opportunity Employer <br />
