COLUMBUS JUNCTION The low bid for a previously approved asbestos abatement project for the Columbus School District’s secondary building campus will mean nearly $17,600 in savings, the school board learned Monday.
District business manager Neil Mills said Shive-Hattery Associates, Cedar Rapids, which is serving as the engineering consultant for the project, had reported receiving four bids for the summer project.
Iowa-Illinois Taylor Insulation, Inc, Davenport, had submitted a low bid of $37,403. The construction budget had been set at $55,000 and approved in May by the board.
According to Shive-Hattery’s bid tabulation, asbestos will be abated from pipe fittings and insulation, wall gaskets, floor tile and mastic. New pipe insulation also will be installed.
Woodward and Ruther laid out five similar defenses to the claim. Should this defendant be at fault . said fault should be compared with that of the plaintiff and/or other parties, both defense attorneys said in their respective motions.
The attorneys were referencing Iowa Code 688, which requires judges to consider how at fault parties in the case are in comparison to each other.
In a case where the plaintiff does bear some fault, the amount of damages incurred by the plaintiff are to be reduced in accordance with the amount of fault the plaintiff bears.
In criminal cases, the jury is not allowed to know the penalties a defendant would face if convicted. However, in a civil case, it is the jury that decides what a defendant would have to pay.
