2 later decisions quote this exact passage“In a situation where the information and representations are intended to be suggestive of construction conditions, or the contract provides that they are to be taken as estimates only, then the governmental agency is not to be held accountable for variances which may be encountered on the job when there is no deliberate misrepresentation or fraud involved. (See the numerous out-of-state citations therein cited.)”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“This claim was made in a timely fashion and the trial court was correct in not dismissing the matter because of the statute of limitations provision of KRS 44.-310. The cause of action did not arise until February 17, 1972, when the Commonwealth advised the Appellant of what it was willing to pay.”
