As we discussed, our fundraising efforts are ongoing a~d support from the business community has been very encouraging. To date the league has raised in cash and donations over $188,000.00 towards this project. We are, ho~vever, at a critical path. With the exception of fencing, two of our four fields are completed. The league is in immediate need of additional funding to complete the fencing of both fields. Without fences and backstops the fields will be unable to be used safely this year. The amount required to fence both fields is $55,000. We are requesting that the city consider funding all or part of this mount so that we may complete our first two fields by Opening Day March 25, 2000. Bids have been received from four fencing companies, the committee has decided to award the bid to South Bay Fence. South Bay has agreed to do this job on a time and material basis with a cap of $27,500.00 per field. ]'he job will be completed in time for Opening Day, March 25. 2000. (See the attached bid). We are taking a leap of faith and signing a contract with South Bay Fence this week. Please consider this request and let me know of your decision as soon as possible. If I can furnish additional information please let me know. Field Development Chairman Work phone: 619-688-9255 Home phone: 619-475-7554
