Body
Dear Sir:
On April 19, 2018, the Board of Commissioners duly authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to advertise Contract 17-604-21 at an estimated cost of $46,500.00.
Due to a change of scope and deletion of work from that scope, including the removal of fencing and some guardrail, the cost estimate has decreased from $46,500.00 to $38,240.00. The title of the contract, which appeared in the agenda summary and the first paragraph of the body of the letter, has also changed from, “Furnish, Deliver and Install Headrace Handrails, Guardrails and Fencing at the Lockport Powerhouse,” to “Furnish, Deliver and Install Headrace Handrails and Guardrails at the Lockport Powerhouse.”
The fourth paragraph of the body of the letter indicated “The bid deposit for this contract is $2,300.00.” Same should now read “The bid deposit for this contract is $1,920.00.”
It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to decrease the cost estimate for Contract 17-604-21 from $46,500.00 to $38,240.00.
Funds will be restored to Account 201-50000-645720.
