College’s Board Policy No. H.5.1, “Restrictions for Purchases Exceeding $5,000/Academic Selections”, to NATIONAL
INSTRUMENTS, in the amount of $25,729.37.

Description:
The existing A Tower roof, over the East Wing, is old and experiencing leaks. When the bid package was issued, it was
thought to be the roof section most in need of replacement. However the section of the West Wing near E Tower has

section with an additional cost of $16,329.00 to cover the additional labor needed in this section.
Change Order #1 will move the roof replacement project to “E” Tower, for an additional cost of $16,329.00.
