RE: Please Keep on The Table - Communication for Limited Design
Services For the Resource Center
Please continue to keep on the table and not remove the limited design services contract
amendment number #1. I believe there is going to be a potential scope of service change, which
would negate the current written scope and I believe it proper to leave this current proposal on
the table until we work through these details.
THANK YOU.
