Brown Change OrderI'm going to have a change order for the renovation of the Vocational Building at A.L. Brown. We haveused all of our allowance and built in contingency and need to use another source. I was originally goingto ask to use contingency, but after reviewing my budget I have funds in other categories that could beused instead. There are funds left over in Asbestos Abatement, Engineers, other construction, etc. thatwill cover my change order and budget amendments. The change order for Hendrick construction is dueto building and fire code issues, design changes, and other little changes that have come up due torenovation. The Hendrick change order includes things such as fire dampers, dust collection system forthe construction classroom, design change to the foods classroom, and other various issues related torenovation. The budget amendments will cover the cost of an outside contractor to extend the walls up tothe deck to meet fire code and to point and tuck the brick and mortar on the outside of the building. Theincrease in the technology line item will be for the purchase of computers for the classrooms. TheKannapolis City Board of Education will consider this matter at their November 21, 2011 Board meeting.The change order for Hendrick Construction and the budget amendments will allow us to address theseconcerns with existing budget instead of using contingency funds. Thank you for your consideration.Attachment number 1F-4Page 295
