.......I have tried contacting the District to get accurate infomation. On my first
request, I received the response that the information I was requesting was
not available. Fair enough. My second and third requests concerning the
budget summary and project estimates were made on Tuesday. By law, I should
have received a response no later than yesterday. No such response was
received. They do have an additional week to provide the requested material
but they have already violated their own operating rules, so I am not
encouraged.
Calls to Hummel Architects were also not returned. Without more data, I am
not able to determine if the project estimate is reasonably accurate or
not.
