Item 12b Termination of the Contract with MJB Pipeline for the Cross Town Sanitary Sewer Interceptor (SR 91:278) Mr. Bill McInerney, Attorney for MJB Pipeline, voiced his objections that the termination of the contract was inherently unfair and an unnecessary action. He stated that Mr. Elliott's claim that the work must be completed in order to put the line in use is not supported by facts because the portion of the line in question could have been put in service as early as January 1991. He indicated that there had been problems with the pipes involving solid sheets and Weko-seals, which MJB Pipeline repaired at least twice at its own cost of about $850,000. He added that MJB Pipeline has put in about $1 million to finish the project, which amount excludes the cost of delays and other expenses. He stated that the City is trying to circumvent a written agreement between the two parties to postpone the dispute, which would be resolved by a third party, and to finish the job. - 38 - 7-16-91
