Parking-lot and softball project: change orders, site surprises and credits
Summary
Trustees approved change orders related to the CUHS parking-lot and softball field project; documents and contractor reports show both added costs for site fixes (storm drain, unsuitable soil, electrical) and credits for design changes.
The Board approved change orders 5–12 for the Corning Union High School parking-lot and softball-field work after project staff reviewed additional costs and credits.
Project manager Zane Schreder outlined a set of contractor requests and engineering fixes. The change orders include costs tied to an exposed/incorrectly buried feeder and subpanel, a discovered storm drain that required replacement, unsuitable soils removed and other time-and-material work. The construction log in the meeting packet shows both charges (for example, a $51,737.99 line for time-and-material unsuitable soils) and credits (including a $166,055 landscaping credit and a $35,100 electrical credit tied to scope adjustments). The Board voted unanimously to accept the listed change orders.
Randy Hill Construction and subcontractors supplied itemized estimates in the packet describing specific repairs, such as a contractor entry labeled, “Cost to replace damaged existing feeder buried to shallow at portable,” and a civil-engineering response to a busted storm drain discovered during light standard installation. The district’s project manager said several of the credits stemmed from value-engineering changes and that some site discoveries — notably the drain and unsuitable soil — required unplanned work.
Trustees thanked project staff for cost-saving work and asked staff to continue to track net fiscal impacts. The Board did not change any contract award but approved the contingency adjustments as presented.
