$25,600 to Triangle and Associates for preconstruction and construction services $472,893.95 to Triangle and Associates for work associated with the High School Stadium $362,380.01 to Triangle and Associates for work associated with the Middle School renovations $142,070.46 to Triangle and Associates for work associated with Dunlap renovations Is there a Motion? |
10.2. Approval of AC at Dulap and Middle School (Action)
Description:
Superintendent Lemmer is recommending that the board approve the additional costs associated with adding AC to all of the classrooms at the Middle School in the amount of $205,178 and at Dunlap Elementary in the amount of $422, 960. This will be paid out of bond funds. This will be accomplished through an additional scope of work and not through another bid process. The reason that the cost of the Middle School AC is lower than the cost of Dunlap is because we have already purchased all of the equipment for the middle school and so the cost reflects installation and additional piping costs.
