Greeley, Colorado
Gentlemen:
I herewith respectfully request permission to withdraw my bid
of $85,345.00 for the construction of the Library for Weld
County, Colorado, under plans and specifications proposed by
Einhorn and Nash, Architects.
This request is made because I made an error of $10,000.00 in
addition in computing my bid which really should have been
$95,345.00 had my addition been correct.
I am not financially able to suffer such loss as would be
necessary to complete performance under the bid as erroneously
made.
I appreciate that some inconvenience has resulted from my
error and in good faith, I herewith tender to Weld County the
sum of $500.00 as a compromise settlement and payment in full
of all damages the County has or will sustain by reason of
granting my request and permitting me to withdraw my bid.
I hope the Board can accept my tender because in my present
financial condition I could not pay more without suffering
extreme hardship.
Very truly yours,
Hello
