maintenance bond in the amount of $18,500 for a three-year
period beginning January 1, 1973. The Borough Chairman

in that they were not installed in accordance with the 7127.
as agreed upon between the Borough and the Architect.
of the Borough's concern the contractor has submitted a
three -year breakage guarantee, leakage guarantee and i: _.
with bonding.
There are a number of problems that could arise which

KIB SPECIAL MEETING - FEBRUARY 3, 1973 Page 2
An inspection was made on February 2, 1973, by the Building
Inspection and Mr. R. A. Jones and a punch list was submitted.
Mr. Latta asked that there be some monetary figure placed on
those items still outstanding and that this be retained from
the final payment. The list should be presented to the Architect
and the request payment made up and presented to the Borough for
payment.
Mr. Brechan moved that the Borough Assembly instruct Mr. White to
contact the Borough Attorney with regard as to his opinion regardin:
payment to the NorthLand Construction whether the payment of the
bill with Mr. Latta's guarantee would leave the Borough in the
position of requiring the correction of the problems after payment,
second by Mr. Nelson. The intent of this is to insure that the
Borough is not compromising their position to require that those
items that are deficient be brought up to specifications.
The question was called and the motion passed by unanimous roll cal
vote.
Mr. Brechan moved that Mr. White be authorized after receiving the
attorney's opinion to contact our architect and advise them of the
deficiencies that have been discussed, seconded by Mr. Nelson.
The intent is to authorize the Chaitman to advise the architects
that we have these deficiencies and that we have discussed them,
they were not infact authorized and that the Borough has negotiat -::
with the contractor and the problems have not been resolved.
The question was called and the motion passed by unanimous roll
call vote.
When asked about the 6enifical occupancy, the Chairman noted tt=_
when we receive the concurrence of the Architect that the buildir:
is okay less the deficiencies we will occupy. The punch list c__ _ .
be resolved with monetary value.
As a result of the problems on the Ouzinkie School, the high scn
project is being kept under a little closer watch.
