6. NEW BU51NESS (Cont'd) Mr. Robinson; four Commissioners cast "Aye" votes for the approval of the motion. Motion carried by majority vote, for the extension of time of thirty (30) days, or a contract completion date of June 15, 19 6, for Change Order No. 4 to Plaza Park- Contract No. 1, R -66. Mr. Kevin J. Butler, Commission Legal Counsel, stated this is just a technicality, but he didn't see a copy of the change order in his packet for the extension of time. The motion has been made to ex- te d it, but there is no change order which affects it As it is evident it has to be prepared, he questioned Mr, ': Slabaugh, who advised thE contractor requested this two days ago and his time for contract' completion would run out before the next Commission meeting and the ap roval is being requested here without a formal change order being mace out. Commissioner Wiggins requested if we couldn't give approval in substance; to approve it without the change order and substitute for the subsequent change order to be enacted later. Mr. Butler ad- vised once the change order is executed extending the time thirty (30) da s, then it is effective; it would be difficult for the Department to make a claim aginst Nautilus for failure to complete the contract, based on the approval of the time extension in the Minutes. With the above discussions, Mr. Slabaugh added that he discussed this item with Pat McMahon, Manager of Bureau of Construction and he stated if this does not tie up Colips Electric, Foegley Landscape Design and Contracting, Inc., who is doing the landscaping, he would have no ob- je tions. It rained yesterday to check the landscaping part out. Mr. Butler said that, based on what Mr. Slabaugh is saying, the Com- mission may want to amend that motion, to make it subject to a clear- ance by the staff; in other words to make sure that it is not going to hold up the rest of the work, and then along with Commissioner Wiggins' comments, direct the staff to let the contractor know that this is it. Tho Chair requested the motion be reconsidered: Mr. Wiggins made the motion to reconsider the motion, seconded by Mr. Robinson, and the votes taken were unanimous. Motion carried. The Chair said that the motion is now being reconsidered, and requested a motion to that effect: Mr. Wiggins moved that we agree to the thirty (30) day extension of time, subject to the approval by the Bureau of Public Construction, as per their request that there be no inconvenience to the other contractors, and subject to the approval of our Legal Counsel, with the further stipulation that this be considered the end of the time extension. Mr. Robinson seconded the motion, and the vote was unanimously carried by all Commissioners, for the motion as noted. Also subject to HUD approval. e.
