These areas were omitted in the original plans and specifications. After construction began and these areas were opened, damaged ceiling tiles and rusted grids were discovered. 2) Installation of drywall in restrooms to accommodate raised floor. Drywall had to be raised to accommodate raised floor in restrooms. 3) Add an overlay of sheetrock to paneled rooms previously scheduled for repainting in the 2"d floor offices. The existing paneled walls were scheduled to be painted but upon closer inspection, damage to the 30 year old paneling was noted, thus the decision was made to overlay the paneling with sheetrock. 4) Furnish and install acoustical ceilings in 2nd floor north and south corridors. The original plans called for recessed lighting with plaster ceilings. Since these are office and dressing room corridors that will not be open to the public, it was decided to lower the ceiling and install acoustical tiles. 5) Replacement of rusted metal studs found in restroom walls,janitor closets and other interior room walls. The studs were rusted from water leaks not known until existing walls were removed. Change Order No. 5 submitted December 13, 2006 in an amount of $38,396.45 includes: 1) Leveling of restroom floors.After demolition of existing restrooms, it was discovered that the floors were not level due to the settling of the foundation on the north and south sides of the building. The floors need to be raised 2 Y2 to 3 Y2 inches to accommodate the installation of new restroom facilities and flooring. After consulting with a structural engineer, it was determined that the floors could be leveled by using concrete and a leveling compound. In addition, all plumbing stub outs and drains must be raised to accommodate the new floor. 2) Additional stencil work by Conrad Schmitt in the west auditorium entrances. Conrad Schmitt's original bid included lobby and hallway stencils. It was decided to continue the same pattern in auditorium vestibules. The cost for this additional artistic stenciling is $2,278.50. 3) Plumbing repairs. These include replacing airconditioning drains, storm drains and miscellaneous plumbing repairs. Change Order No. 6 submitted December 21, 2006 in an amount of $71,896.82 includes: 1) New and revised lighting. The original specifications for lighting were based on a decorating scheme designed by LaBiche Architectural Group. The award of the construction bid included an alternate bid item using the artistic design work by Conrad Schmitt Studios for painting the lobby walls, auditorium and corridors. The design scheme includes beautiful floral patterns in soft pastels, stenciled and hand painted on wall panels and hand-painted ceiling murals. The lighting fixtures originally specified are not appropriate for the new design concept. Included in this change order are new chandeliers for the north and south lobbies. The contractor allowed $10,715 in his bid for cleaning and repairing the existing chandeliers. New chandeliers were selected after it was discovered that the existing chandeliers had damage beyond repair. The price forthe four chandeliers including four mechanical lowering devices, new wiring and wall controls, and installation is $55,060. In addition, new chandeliers not scheduled for replacement in the original bid were selected for the Green Room, the Ticket Lobby and corridors. Most of the cost was offset by the deletion of numerous fixtures originally specified that did not compliment the architectural integrity of the building.
