<br /> The attached ordinJnce is submitted for your consideration and I recommend that it

<br />
<br />Bids were opened on October 29, 1974 for the River Shore Sanitary Sewer Project.
<br />This project will extend sanitary sewer service on River Shore Road to'serve residences
<br />in this area which were developed prior to annexation by the City of Portsmouth. The
<br />following is a tabulation of bids received:

<br />
<br /> As the tabulation indicates, there were a large number of bidders on this project
<br />which may be a reflection of the inactivity in the subdivision development at this time,
<br />and this has resulted in what appears to be a very good price for the City of Portsmouth.
<br />
<br /> The total cost of the project is $81,000, including the contract price, contingencies
<br />engineering inspections, etc. A breakdown of the costs showing the total, less a previous
<br />appropriated amount, is sho~ below:
