John and Michelle,
I wanted to make sure you received the below email. Could you please let me know?
Also, if you haven’t done so already (please let me know if I missed an email), would you mind
sending the costing / scope for the road improvements that you had commissioned? Thanks.
Also, I may be at Dabob sometime tomorrow or Friday.
Best regards,
R

Subject: Road improvement
John and Michelle,
Great catching up with you yesterday. Renee and I are looking forward to becoming a more full-
time part of the community!
Attached for your information are the following:
1. Notes from walk of the road with Shold
2. Shold proposal
3. Stewart proposal
First, with respect to Shold, the attached notes reflect my rendition of the meeting / road walk with
Shold back in May. The intent was to flag what work would be included in the intended road
improvement scope from Shold. (Karl Von Bargen and I walked the road a second time with Shold
several weeks ago.) In addition to the general work required re: rock surface and shoulder work, I
noted:
The places where we discussed widening the corners indicated by the yellow shaded
arc <image001.png>.
The trees that needed to be removed and/or tended to by the pink shaded
“x” <image002.png>. There are about 11 trees noted, but we discussed including about 4 or 5
for purposes of the quote.
Possible turn-outs by <image003.png>
Second, with respect to the cost proposal, this includes:
Clearing, scraping and sculpting the roadsides and edges, and shaving 1 or 2 corners (this I
my recollection – it could be just 1, but the one corner for certain is the corner on your
property.). It also includes some widening in narrow spots, but not widening as a general
principle. This does not include any culverts, but does included the road diverters. This is
the ~$14,100 cost.
Spreading, grading and compacting rock / gravel. This is the ~$42,500 cost.
Clearing some trees – I am not precisely clear what number of trees are included in the bid,
but I believe the quote includes 4 or 5. The issue for discussion here is what trees need to be
removed for general/common purposes (service vehicles/ emergency vehicles, etc.) versus
what trees need to be removed for construction vehicle purposes. This is the ~$9,600 cost.

Third, attached is the proposal from Stewart. Overall, his cost proposal is low, and includes shaving
one corner and removing one tree. He identified one tree (a large maple) that needs to be
removed in his opinion, but he did not want to include an estimate a cost for this. I believe other
items would also need to be dealt with that are not included in this bid. I believe that we should
use a $25,000 figure (at least) for the Stewart proposal.
Other items for consideration that affect cost include: (i) having to deal with buried electrical lines
and associated easement; and (ii) adding culverts in select areas. Finally, we might consider
seeking cost participation by DNR.
Hope this is helpful and happy to discuss, and looking forward to seeing the cost proposal you had
obtained.
Best regards,
R
