SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS

Approve Change Order No. 5 in the Credit Amount of $319,006.54, a Time Extension of 15 Calendar Days, and Acceptance of Project for
Deer Park Elementary School, New Facility

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On January 17, 2006, the Board appointed The Architectural Practice, Inc. and Ellis Construction Company, Inc. to provide design and construction management services. This new facility, a reuse of the Collins Elementary School design, was occupied in August 2007 and relieved overcrowding at Bryant Elementary School. On February 13, 2007, the Board approved the guaranteed maximum price for the project.

This change order provides credits for project savings and the return of unused contingency funds. A time extension of 15 calendar days is included to accommodate a delay in the issuance of the Notice to Proceed, as a result of land acquisition issues and county site plan approval.

The architect advises that the referenced project is finally complete in accordance with the plans and specifications and other contract documents and recommends Board acceptance.
