The $23,885.00 will be added to The Quandel Group contract through a Change Order.

The reason for this Change Order is due to the materials’ vendor (Master Halco) and the installation sub-contractor unwillingness to provide the materials listed in the specifications. This will result in no cost increase to the owner. The P.O. to Master Halco for $23,885.00 has been cancelled and the responsibility for providing and installing the fencing materials is being transferred to The Quandel Group.

Recommendation: It is recommended that the Kenton County Board of Education approve Change Order No. 20 with The Quandel Group associated with Scott High School Phase I – BG 09-225 at a cost of $23,885.00, contingent on Kentucky Department of Education approval.
