Pastuch 391 Riverside Drive Tequesta, FL 33469 Re: Village of Tequesta Sidewalk Replacement Project; Response to Com- plaints Raised Dear Mr. Pastuch: I am in receipt of your several e-mails to the Village of Tequesta, including public records requests, regarding the above referenced matter. I have consulted with various Village personnel involved with the sidewalk replacement project and the following is the Village's position on the matter and response to your correspondences on the topic: In September, 2017, with the approval and adoption of the 2017/2018 budget via Resolution 45-17, the Village Council authorized the expenditure of funds for the Sidewalk Replacement Project. The Sidewalk Replacement Project was competitively bid in September, 2017 via RFP No. PW03-17. Pursuant to the RFP process, R&D Paving was determined to be tne proposer that best served the Vilfage's interests and needs. On September 20, 2017 the Village awarded the contract for performance of the Sidewalk Replacement Project to R�D Paving, the contract was approved by the Village Council and on October 12, 2017 was executed by the Mayor. Between the months of October, 2017 and April, 2018, the Sidewalk Replace- ment Proje�t Work was performed by R&D Paving. As various aspects of the project were peRnitted through the Building Department, they w ere also inspected and deter- mined to be in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Florida Building Code. 701 Northpoint Parkway, Si�ite 205,West Palm Beach, FL 33407 � p 561-586-7116 �f 561-586-9611 wu�co.davisashtonlaw.com �`��I V 0 ♦LEADING EXPERTS IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT LAW AND ETHICS♦ ��,n_I,., ,•� � C]W ��J J�l.C�t/� 1 J May 14,2018 Village of Tequesta Sidewalk Replacement Projecf;Response tn Complaints Raised As the documentation which establishes the above facts reveals, the Sidewalk Replacement Project was properly budgeted and was approved to be implemented by the Village Council; the project was competitively bid and the contractor was selected in accordance with Village procurement requirements; the work was performed in accord- ance with industry best practices; upon permitting and inspection by licensed inspec- tors, the work was determined to meet applicable Florida Building Code requirements. Although we have reviewed your numerous complaints, it is the Village's position that they are unfounded, and that the sidewalk replacement project is a success. There is no question that the new concrete sidewalks are a vast improvement over the old asphalt sidewalks and wil{ be an asset to the Village for many years to come. Be advised that the Village of Tequesta, having addressed your complaints and having responded to your public records requests, now considers this matter closed. You should not expect any further response from the Village of Tequesta related to the sidevralk replacernent projec:.
