Executive Summarv:
Approval of the staff recommendation will increase the scope of the contractor's work at
the new Visitor Information Center to create an art gallery that replaces the North Wing
Art Gallery at City Hall and provides for temporary and permanent signage on the
interior and exterior of the building. Both items of work were necessary in order to
complete the building for its present use, but were not included in the original scope of
the construction contract.

Discussion:
On September 9, 2004, the Agency Board awarded Contract No. R19540-A to WDL
Construction for construction of a new Visitor Information Center. The original
construction contract did not include exterior building signage, since this was scheduled
to be part of a separate contract for construction of site monument signage and other
identification devices. Nor did the original contract call for construction of specialized
lighting or adequate wall space for an art gallery, since the Art in Public Places program
had not yet been identified as a user for the building. Over the course of construction, it
became evident that the most cost efficient way to provide the exterior building signage
would be under the existing contract with WDL, rather than having a separate contractor
come in and work around WDL's workforces. Additionally, the public arts program was
identified as an occupant of the building, and the Council authorized modification of the
building design to provide new gallery space that replaces the former North Wing Art
Gallery. This change order compensates the contractor for the work associated with
executing the designed modifications to the building.
To date, the non -elective change orders on this project have totaled 3.5 percent of the
original contract value, which is within industry standards for a project of this size.
