The increase in the amount of actual bid items constructed over the original bid amount
resulted from the need for additional 359 square feet of removal of tiles and
construction of stamped concrete. The final overall construction cost was 4.64 percent
over the original bid amount. No Change Orders were issued for the project.

The project was determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act

exemption covers the maintenance of existing public facilities, involving negligible
expansion of the facilities in areas that are not environmentally sensitive. This project
