Resolution

APPROVING GMP AMENDMENTS 1.1, 2.1 & 3.2
TO THE CMR AGREEMENT WITH GILBANE BUILDING COMPANY

The New Bremen Local Schools superintendent recommends approval of the following GMP Amendments to the CMR Agreement with Gilbane Building Company for 1.1 high school parking lot renovation, 2.1 future demolition of the existing elementary school and 3.2 work at the new elementary building. 

Rationale:

1.	The New Bremen Local School District Board of education (the Board) previously approved an agreement with Gilbane Building Company (CMR) as the construction manager at risk for pre-construction stage services, and for GMP 3.1 for an early site package for the new elementary school.

2.	Based upon drawings, specifications, and other information prepared for the project by Garmann Miller, the Board’s Architect, the CMR prepared guaranteed maximum pricing (GMP) proposals and GMP Amendments, including supporting documentation and exhibits, all of which have been reviewed by the Core Team.

3.	The CMR has modified the GMP Amendments and documents based upon comments from the OFCC Project Manager, and will continue to make adjustments based upon additional OFCC review and comments received.

4.	The New Bremen Local Schools superintendent recommends approval of the GMP Amendments and documents provided by the CMR, in substantially the same form, subject to approval by the OFCC, which include:
1.1- High School parking lot renovation GMP in the amount of $875,293.98, all of which is co-funded work.
2.1 – Future Demolition of the existing elementary school GMP in the amount of $991,939.59, all of which is co-funded work.
3.2 – New Elementary School GMP in the amount of $15,622,593.76 of which $8,879,882.30 is co-funded and $6,742,711.46 is locally funded
and which increases the total amount of the Contract Sum included in the CMR agreement by that amount.

New Bremen Local School District Board resolves as follows:

1.	The GMP Amendments 1.1, 2.1 and 3.2 to the CMR Agreement with Gilbane Building Company for work at the high school parking lot, future demolition of the existing elementary building, and work at the new elementary building are approved in the amount of $17,489,827.33, of which $6,742,711.46 is locally funded and $10,747,115.87 is co-funded work, subject to final approval by the OFCC.

2.	The Board President, Superintendent, and Treasurer are authorized to sign GMP Amendments 1.1, 2.1 and 3.2 in the final version, after review and approval for OFCC, and any related documents.
