Authority approves fire alarm change order to add two remote-head emergency lights
Summary
Board approved Change Order 2 for the fire alarm upgrade to add two remote-head emergency fixtures in two buildings; staff said the change arose from wiring differences discovered on-site.
The Sudbury Housing Authority approved Change Order 2 for the ongoing fire alarm upgrade, authorizing additional work to install remote-head emergency lights in two buildings.
Staff said the contractor encountered two buildings whose existing wiring for remote-head emergency lights differed from the plans, requiring additional fixtures and associated work. The staff member described the change as an upgrade and told the board it covered two fixtures (one in each of two buildings). That staff member said the change order amount covered the reference installation and noted the overall project is expected to finish in May, with interior installations to follow once components are available.
A board member moved to accept Change Order 2; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The record shows an affirmative unanimous voice vote; the transcript does not list a roll-call tally or mover/second names.
Why it matters: The change order increases the project cost and reflects on-site conditions differing from plan documents; the board said it will receive follow-up information on schedule and final cost.
