Approval of Minutes
Motion to approve minutes of 9/5 made by Jennifer Whitney,second Stephen Foster, motion approved 7-0.
Review and Vote on change order-drainage pipe change
Jessica, project manager from Collier, presented a change order.The drainage pipes outside the cafeteria were
originally designed to be 12". It is necessary to increase the size of the pipes to 18".This will result in an increase in
the cost of materials by$12831.24 which would be paid for from the contingency fund.This only impacts the pipes
within the current construction area.Additionally,the pipes from the construction area to Main Street will need to
be replaced so that the drainage system can match the future Main Street Project per the DPW.The design of this
upgrade will cost$14,500 and will be deducted from the consultant reimbursable fund.Once the design is
completed,there will be an additional construction cost.This will likely need to be paid for by the contingency
fund after approval of the MSBC.This was not discussed during previous TRC meetings. Mr. Hicks expressed
frustration that the MS project is being asked to use contingency funds to pay for additional work that was not
included in the original scope of the project.
Steve Foster made a motion to approve the change order for increasing the drainage pipe size from 12"to 18"at a
cost of$12831.24.Jen Whitney seconded the motion. 7-0 vote.
