7335 Change in Scope of Work on Capital Construction Projects

ICHABOD CRANE 7335 

CHANGE IN SCOPE OF WORK ON CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS 

The Board of Education wants to facilitate the timeliness of work associated with the  capital construction projects authorized by the district’s voters. As such, the Board  recognizes the occasional need to approve changes in construction plans (change orders) as  the work unfolds.  

The Board authorizes the Superintendent of Schools and, in his/her absence, the Business Manager, to approve increases and decreases in the planned capital facilities project  work (change orders) in an amount not to exceed $50,000 per change. The Superintendent  will present the change order to the Board as an information item at its next scheduled  meeting. It is understood that change orders will be authorized by the administration only  when necessary to maintain progress of the work and will not substantively change the scope  of project plans. 

Change orders which exceed $50,000 will require prior Board approval.

Effective Date: March 31, 2015
