SUBJECT: Raclin Murphy Encore Center: Change Order #5
DATE: January 22nd, 2026
Greetings, The documents herein detail the costs associated with Change Order #5 for the Raclin Murphy Encore Center project. See the attached This includes a variety of costs associated with the
project including unforeseen issues and some necessary design changes. It also includes the addition of some monumental donor signage for the building. This is to acknowledge the
contributions of generous donors that have contributed more than $15M towards the construction of the Raclin Murphy Encore Center and subsequent parking garage.
The date is also being extended to January 23rd, 2026. There are a number of justified delays due to needing to do re-designs after unforeseen issues both in the building and underground related to utility conflicts.
With this change order, the entire change percentage is now at 5.2%, 1.2% of which is unforeseen, which puts the general change at 4%. These changes are still within the planned
contingency in the project. This change order also includes project savings of $81,964.28, which reflects efforts by the project team to control allowance usage and control costs with value engineering. Total cost controls on the project reduced cost by about 1%.
Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions.
