SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS

B.T. WASHINGTON K-8 SCHOOL - ADDITION AND RENOVATION
APPROVAL OF CHANGE ORDER NO. 11 - $37,414.00 EXTRA

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This project was planned by the architectural firm of Rick Z. Smith & Associates Architects, Inc. On March 12, 2002, the Board appointed the construction management firm of R.J. Bunbury Company, Inc. The scope of work for the conversion of B.T. Washington from a middle school to K-8 is as follows: the existing parking lots were modified, resurfaced, and re-striped to better accommodate the elementary and middle school programs. Areas of poor drainage, missing gutters and downspouts were corrected. Buildings 1, 2 and 3 were remodeled for better utilization and to meet current Code requirements. There was an addition of a Science lab and two Science classrooms. Building 4 was demolished and a new building was constructed to house 8 classrooms. Existing main electrical service, fire alarm, security, intercom, telephone and data systems, lighting, casework, teaching aids, and ceilings were replaced campus-wide. Mechanical system revisions were made to upgrade the toilet room exhausts, and replace the air handler in administration. The entire campus was painted. Floor finish replacement was handled on a room-by room basis.

This change order is required to reroute underground sewer, rework kitchen exhaust duct, repair existing boiler and air conditioning equipment, add chase walls and power outlets, revise ceiling design, replace existing chiller drive for pump, change new elevator to key-operated, and provide missing expansion joint covers.
