Psdditionally, the plan also had to be drawn~so as to accommodate the existing foundation that the house would sit an--of course,, the original house was destroyed by the tornado. with all these variables, it was impossible at the time of the proposal to calculate the exact square footage of the residence. Of course, it is clear from the proposal, that the contract price of $51,600, was based on a 2500 square foot home. Once the architect°s plan were complete, my client then resubmitted would the sal, and included therein, the blue prints whit ame the peratare portion of the contract. .~tQ~' eli~~ then o is which called fos a nose with 19a5 square eat.._ Zt is'our contentwn s i_ n fact becatae the contrae~^ Ta the extent that the origir._L pro ~ sal was incansi ent th~rt th the architect's plans, and their suasequent construction, established the terms and conditions of the contract. Your clients should be able to verify that Marty Galley went over the plans verycarefull_v with them prior to•their initialing them, and in fact left the plans with them for two days prior to their approval. There was na quostion that they knew what the plans called for, and were €amiliar with the square footage, which is written very clearly an page 2 of the plans. At the complatian of the project, Galley Construction. submitted their final statement, which effectively called for additional payment for the 19S square feat that was over and above the original proposal grits. By recalculating the original square footage called for in the proposal, Galley Construction calculated that the square feet on the project was bid at $29.57 per square foot, and therefore the additional square footage was billed at $5,766.15. Z t29ink if~you will investigate the billing price of a construction square foot, you will find this well within acceptable standards, and prrsbably significantly lower than the fair and reasonable price in tfsa Grasd Zsland ccmmtunity at this time.
