Capital Proiect Ordinance Amendment - Chapel Hill Hiah School Cultural Arts Buildin <br />The Board consider approving a revised capital project ordinance for renovations to the Cultural Arts <br />Building at Chapel Hill High School. Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools asked to reallocate capital funds from various <br />projects to address higher than expected construction bids for renovations at the Chapel Hill High School Cultural Arts <br />Building. <br />John Link distributed information on how this building project will be funded. He asked how transferring <br />funds from these projects would affect these projects in the future if there were overages. Bill Mullins from the Chapel <br />Hill/Carrboro City Schools said that there were a combination of factors which caused the overage of this project. The <br />electrical work, lighting and PA system cost more than anticipated. The project total in the budget was estimated at <br />$750,000. The low bid was $800,000 which is $300,000 more than the $500,000 they anticipated. <br />Chair Margaret Brown asked if this project could be done in phases doing such items as the seats, <br />electrical, lighting and sound separately. Bill Mullins said that they tried that and it did not work for this facility. The <br />total cost of the project will be $1,050,000. The original estimate in 1995 was $500,000. <br />Commissioner Halkiotis made reference to the project manager position for both school systems. He feels <br />the County needs to help both school systems with providing this service. He feels that the manager needs to sit down <br />with the superintendents and talk with them about this possibility.
