They can pay to have it taken <br />away--or move it to the golf course property which wouJd save zhem substantial dallars. <br />Mayor Rinker said since we have not fir}alized owr contract with Progressive, he is cmncerned with <br />appearances. He does not know what savungs there would be for Progressive_ There are a <br />number of things we want to be courteous abaut but is .not sure -this is one of them, <br />Mr. I)olence (froffi I'rogressive in the audience) estima#ed it would sa.ve Progressive $70,000 in <br />hauling costs and a week to- a vveek and a half in time. It takes 3 weelcs to dispose of 25,000 <br />cubic yards. By moving the topsoil-tv the .golf course, they cduld cut this time in half. Assuming <br />each truckload wilt hold 16 yards, there wiR be 1,516 truckloads of topsoil. <br />Mayor Rinker thinks the hardest question to answer is what it w1t look like. <br />1'vlr.
