The Department of Public Works recommends the
adoption of a resolution authorizing the City
Manager to make an additional payment of
$1,950 to the contractor on the ADMINISTRATION
BUILDING (2ND BIDDING) project because of
work performed after final acceptance of the
building.
After the contractor, Shafer and Miller, Inc., completed
the ADMINISTRATION BUILDING (2ND BIDDING), and it was
occupied by City forces, the Building Department reached
a decision that in -line fuses are required in all fluo-
rescent light fixtures within the building. We ordered
the electrical subcontractor to install the fuses, and
he did so.
J
Since that time, our consultants have notified us that
fixtures that did not have in -line fuses were deliberately
specified on second bidding to save money, and that the
electrical subcontractor should be compensated for in-
think is
—
stalling the fuses. We have negotiated what we _
a fair compensation with him ($1,950), and recommend
that payment be made to the prime contractor, Shafer and
Miller, Inc., who has agreed to pass it on to the elec-
trical subcontractor.
!!i
Money to cover this additional cost is available from
funds already allocated to the project.
