Staff briefed the board on a proposed revision to Garber Task Order 2 related to construction management for the air tanker ramp closeout.
Don told the board Garber’s hours exceeded estimates by roughly $150,000 and, after negotiation, the firms agreed to $75,000 to bridge the overage. He added an extra $5,000 to cover a pen-and-ink change to the Airport Layout Plan so the new air tanker ramp is shown permanently in FAA documentation, producing a total recommended addendum of $80,000 to be charged to the remaining air tanker ramp project balance.
The board moved, seconded and voted to recommend approval of Garber Task Order 2 Revised Addendum 1, approving the negotiated amount.
