SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS

Approve Construction Documents and Guaranteed Maximum Price for Classrooms for Kids Additions at
Bevis Elementary School and Randall Middle School

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On November 9, 2006, the Board appointed A. Douglas Johnson Architects and Peter R. Brown Construction, Inc. to provide design and construction management services. The scope of work provides for the following additions: 12 classrooms at Bevis Elementary School and 10 classrooms at Randall Middle School. These additions are necessary to meet class size reduction requirements. Project completion is scheduled as follows: July 4, 2008 for Bevis and June 18, 2008 for Randall.

Approval of the guaranteed maximum price will establish the cost for each facility, and provide for an increase in the construction manager's fee associated with extraordinary conditions.
