Clever.

(Yes, I read the entire 60 page Bidding Documents. It is REQUIRED that the Contractor use the "free rock" that was "donated" by the Developer, regardless of the Contractor's potential to obtain the specified material at a lower cost.
Hey, it’s a solid business decision. I wouldn’t go as far as to use a hyperbole like”donated”. Some pro Developer politicians have to spoon it on thick though. I sold 100 acres after I logged it too. It was just good business sense. I’m sure no benevolent innuendo was intended.
