Summary

The Finance Committee examined four construction change-order items: storm-shelter requirements from a third-party reviewer, a switch to grouted door frames, a reduction of tennis-court lighting from eight to four fixtures (pending contractor pricing review), and a scope reduction for sidewalk lighting.

Committee members reviewed construction change orders affecting several projects. A third-party review raised storm-shelter requirements; the committee also noted a specification change requiring grouted door frames rather than caulked frames.

The tennis-court lighting scope was reduced from eight lights to four, and PJ Hoerr was asked to investigate a discrepancy with contractor Laser because the scope reduction appeared to yield a larger-than-expected price decrease. The committee also recorded a scope and cost decrease for sidewalk lighting.
