N NEW BUSINESS (Cont'd) Motion was made by Mr. Wiggins, seconded by Mr.' Cira and unani- mously carried, to reject Rehabilitation Contract No. O10 /NWCD, as per bid amount of 9,003.00, from Madison Builders, Inc., as it is over the $8,000.00 maximum allowable under guidelines. f Change Order No 2 to Rehabilitation Contract No. 16, Southeast Project E -7: Commission approval was requested of Change Order No. 2 to Rehabilitation Contract No. 16, with Ted Combs Decora- ting & Construction, Inc., for an increase in contract amount of $689.30, (Contract: $6,958.39), or an amended contract total of: $7,647.69, for rehabilitation work at: 1121 South Carroll Street, in the Southeast Project E -7, per explanation in memorandum dated January 14, from Chief Inspector, Mr. James L. Johnson, Jr., Southeast Bureau of Housing, E -7. Mr. Brownell read the memorandum from Mr. Johnson in its en- tirety, which stated the specifications confirmed the furnace and water heater and called for reroofing the rear porch and for replacing siding 3' x 28' on the south side 6' front, 16' in rear, and paint two coats. Since the time of the initial inspection, the condition of the above - mentioned items have changed as follows: 1. The furnace blower motor, fan switch, fuse disconnect, and the wiring have gone bad. 2. The water heater has no pipe leading from the pressure release valve to 6" above the floor, which is contrary to South Bend Code. 3. The sheathing of the rear porch roof has deteriorated due to leakage through the roofing and will not allow the contractor to properly install the roofing called for on the specifications. 4. Although some of the rotten siding has been replaced, there is still 112 square feet to be replaced which may not have been seen at the time of the initial inspection. These conditions present a serious health and safety problem and should be corrected immediately; therefore, the change order is recommended for approval and brought before the Commission for consideration. Mr. Wiggins moved for the approval of Change Order No. 2 to Rehabilitation Contract No. 16, for an increase in contract amount of $689.30, or an amended contract total of: $7,647.69, and contract time remains unchanged, with Ted Combs Decorating & Construction, Inc., Southeast Bureau of Housing E -7 Project.
