LUMP SUM PROPOSAL
KENNEDY CONSTRUCTION
Commissioner Herschend made a motion to accept the August 9th lump sum
proposal of $200,000 from Kennedy Construction, as a change order, for all the rockwork
on the Judicial Facility. Commissioner Strahan seconded the motion.
Commissioner Herschend stated that he has a concern regarding the FF&E and
how everything is getting put to that line when an issue comes up such as the phones etc.
Herschend added that it is all being treated as a contingency fund.
Commissioner Pennel questioned change orders and how he was told they cost the
owner money. Mike Smith from Septagon stated that you try to define the costs upfront
in the contract however, some try to take advantage of the owner with change orders.
Smith further stated that he agrees with the Architect in that once we actually start the
construction they will find places that could have savings. Steve Davis, HMN Architects
commented that one example could be in the finish on the steel, it could simply be waxed
finished rather than the more expensive finish.
The motion passed by vote: Pennel (yes), Herschend (no), Strahan (yes).
Commissioner Herschend noted that he didn’t know there was a better option.
Herschend expressed that he wished they had taken more time to figure out where the
funding was going to come from but was not opposed to the decision.
