FiSurc Too High 5fly Ekjjesffs SmojIIiI!? Brigham City officials have given up hopes of getting new softball diamond and little league football field projects underway at Rees park this year. They did so Thursday, rejecting a sprinkler bid that exceeded the engineer's estimate by a wide margin. An Ogden firm, Rasmussen, Inc., submitted a $35,933 bid to Install a sprinkler system for the proposed fields on the parks undeveloped north area. This was on Sept. 7. The city council and Mayor Ole Zundel, obviously were stunned by the figure only one submitted for the project and took it under advisement. The engineers estimate was $15,250. Jerry Rasmussen, representing Hansen and Associates, city engineering firm, Thursday said specifications had included top soil and grass planting. Deducting this portion would lower the bid figure to still well above the estimate. Mayor Zundel told the engineering firm representative that one company which had not bid said you designed a system adequate to water the Ogden Golf and Country club. Rasmussen said this was done with an eye toward future expansion. $25,033 Reject Bid The mayor suggested they reject the ma and try again sometime in December, talking to the engineer in the meantime. Rasmussen said it would be their recommendation also to reject the bid.
