The Federal Government has agreed to an extension to the funding deadline for the work being done on the Leamington Marina. The extension request was a precautionary step to ensure that any delay would not result in Leamington footing the bill all alone. But no gift from the Feds comes without at least some strings attached. This is (in part) what the letter says: “The government of Canada has agreed to extend the deadline for the completion of your infrastructure related stimulus project funded under the Community Adjustment Fund. The deadline for completion of your project will now be October 31, 2011. However, there are important conditions governing the extension to your project. In order to amend your CAF contribution agreement, additional documentation is required. Specifically we will require: • A revised financial forecast for the project with estimated eligible costs; • A forecast of estimated eligible project costs and federal funding required from April 1 to October 31, 2011; • A detailed construction schedule for the project, signed by an engineer or architect (template not provided); together with • A solemn declaration concerning the construction schedule signed by an engineer or architect • A council or board resolution committing to finish the project before October 31, 2011, and accepting responsibility for any costs incurred beyond the October 31, 2011 date.”
