Emails are flying fast and furiously.

The tenders for the "frink" were opened today and the opponents of the scheme are chortling with great glee. One of the emails reads:

Hello All,
The tenders were opened today and GUESS WHAT? The lowest bid is $1,667,300 and the highest is $1,765,327! There were 5 bidders. In addition to these numbers, we have to add such things as $150K to TSH for project management work, the Zamboni itself, the cost of other parts of the project performed by others outside the main tender, and the cost of benches and misc. stuff that the town would place there. I guess the total cost to be in the order of $2.25M.

Now the hottest question of the day is, "What will Bob (I'm in charge) Spooner do as he has stated, rather foolishly and very publicly, that he would not vote for it "If it comes in at more than $1.4 million"?
