Subject: Questions on Seasonal Tent and Dance Floor Quote
Dear Mr. Santilli,
Thank you for the opportunity to quote products at The Stevens Estate. Could you help me with some questions on the
quote specifications
1. if we obtain the contract for the tent and dance floor will we be the preferred, exclusive or primary provider for
the table, chairs, dish, china, linens and heat for the Stevens Estate for 2012 and 2013.[Santilli, Ray] No, the
rentals of all other equipment, etc will be separate
2. Could you further define the occupancy requirement of item A.3. I spoke to the two largest tent manufactures
in the U.S . on occupancy levels. They both stated the local building and fire departments not the tent
manufactures set occupancy levels. Please help.[Santilli, Ray] The Stevens Estate has already been approved
for the proper occupancy of a tent 40' by 100'
3. Can we use 8x2O side wall. The side poles are spaced 20' apart?[Santilli, Ray] Yes, the sidewall is fine. The
Estate does have concerns of too few poles because the tent will be up for a number of months and not just a
night or two
4. Is the dance floor 100% vinyl made by Snap Lock? If it is 100% vinyl and is set on the concrete patio is why are
we installing a wood base under it. Can we install a California Portable Dance Floor(CPDF) which is a vinyl
dance floor top manufactured on a %" marine plywood base.[Santilli, Ray] The Estate's primary concern is the
size of the dance floor and that fact that it will withstand the outdoor weather under the tent. You may propose
whatever option you think will work best.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Michael Parkin
