6.(d) COntinued- <br />M . Johnson: No, we no longer have a cost estimator that was cut out <br />o? our budget this year so we have to go along with what is normal <br />p actice for all other contractors combined. The general specifications <br />o the contract call for the contractor to use a median range wall board, <br />t at is what they should be using. <br />Mr. Caesar: It should be around $9.00 then, two pieces would be $18.00 <br />p us $8.00 an hour to install it.. <br />J Johnson: Plus whatever overhead he wants to add .. we have one of two <br />choices here, we can either reject the change order and have someone <br />e se come in and bid that especially, or we can allow this contractor <br />to go ahead with it. <br />Chair: The lesser of two evils.. <br />Mr. Wiggins: But he also has to waterproof the whole thing there's <br />probably more labor involved in this than in normal wallboard installa- <br />t on. <br />Mr. Harcus: The issue is - we are not permitted - nor do we seek authority <br />for destructive inspection.
