Action Items
-The Board of Education voted to approve change order costs that exceed the allowable contingency budget of 10% for the Brookside Paving Improvement project, payable to Ingleside-based Maneval Construction Co. Maneval Construction uncovered unsuitable soil in the Circle Drive Paving Project that required removal and replacement with stone. Additional change orders were recommended by the Soils Engineer and approved in the field to keep the project on schedule. The Administration is requesting that the Board of Education approve costs associated with two additional change orders that were necessary due to the discovery of unsuitable soils in Circle Drive. The approved contingency of $61,940 was not sufficient to cover the total costs of the additional change orders. The excess amount requiring School Board approval is $11,741.00.
