From: James C. Hansz, PE, Director of Public Works/City
Subject: Follow-up, Mountain View Plaza Utility Reimburs
To follow-up on the recent work session where this issue was discussed in substantial
detail, one item following from that meeting was the expectation that MVP and/or their engineer
would immediately be in contact with the City to resolve outstanding questions pertaining to
their request for reimbursement. In particular, Thomas Dean & Hoskins engineer Mike Fraser
clearly indicated he would immediately contact this office to discuss the additional information
he claimed would show the validity of their request. To date we have had no contact with either
TD&H or MVP and to our knowledge they have made no effort to contact anyone with the City
regarding this matter in general or the specifics of their additional technical information to which
they referred several times during the work session.
Until we are contacted by MVP or their engineer we will continue to rely on their
previously supplied information which we believe fully supports the City's present position
regarding reimbursement.
