The Honorable, The Legislature:
I'm pleased to present the Miller Park monthly progress report for the month of July 1997 for your review and consideration. Once again, we have forwarded copies of the progress report to the Milwaukee Brewers, the Construction Manager, the Wisconsin State Legislature and the Governor's office. In addition, we are continuing the practice of making black and white copies available (at reduced cost) to other interested parties through the District's open records policy.
You will note that the July 1997 progress report includes budget summaries, actual costs and cost projections through the end of June 1997. We have determined that our financial status reports are more meaningful with this one month time lag given the size and complexities of our monthly financial statements and reconciliation efforts.
As our July 1997 progress report indicates, Miller Park continues to move forward on time, within budget, and with meaningful project participation. Please feel free to contact me if you should have any questions or comments regarding the enclosed progress report.
Sincerely,
michael r. duckett, p.e.,r.l.s.
Executive Director
