DATE: 8/3/2022
SUBJECT: Change order for the Bush House Renovations
BACKGROUND:
The internal and exterior building renovations on the Bush House are now complete.
Work is progressing on the landscaping and other exterior features.
DISCUSSION:
The original statement of work quote for the renovation was $329,890.
During the construction, other areas were determined to have to be addressed to make the renovations compete
and safe for future use.
The costs for those required changes (which have been completed) are included in the attached change
order. The total cost for these changes was $43,700.
The original budget for renovations in the 2022 Budget was $350,000.
During the budget amendment process, the overall improvements to the CRA budget were increased by
approximately $73,000 and $25,000 of that was added to the Bush House budget. It was expected that costs
for the renovation would increase, and also the costs of the landscaping, etc.
The CRA would like to request the change order from Triple R construction for $43,700 be approved. The
other exterior costs would be covered by the funds in the downtown beautification line item of the 2022 budget.
The contractor has also donated several antique items to the Bush House at no cost.
