Lake in The Hills, IL

McHenry County, IL: (Aug-07-07) Manusos General Contracting Inc. of Fox Lake brought a lawsuit against Lake in The Hills, alleging that the village unlawfully withheld payments for the well and treatment plant project that it was hired to construct. The dispute also included the fact that the construction was completed later than originally agreed on. In court papers, the village claimed that the delay cost $61,500 more in engineering fees and sought to fine the contractor $300 a day for 354 days and $50,000 in attorney fees. The contractor sued in December 2004 saying the village owed $345,000 for the construction of Well 16. In a settlement reached, the village will pay Manusos General Contracting $287,000, ending litigation over the construction of the $2 million well and treatment plant project.
