Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I think we supplied the information yesterday that showed that the winter haul would have to take place by April 1st. Everything would have to be in place, if not already completed.
The plan was to tender the contracts in December for the winter haul. The winter haul would either take place in March or in April. Because the business planning process and the budget process would only have allowed approval by April 1st, there is no way that the municipality would have even had the opportunity to tender contracts with money they did not have.
It would have been a really touch and go issue whether or not they had the time available in April to do a haul of that size. Thank you.
