Only $150,000 is budgeted for construction, a $100,000 appropriation from the General
Fund and a $50,000 contribution to provide cases to display NBPD memorabilia. An
additional $175,000 would be required to award the contract and provide a contingency
amount.
Accordingly, staff recommends that the bids be rejected. Staff also recommends that
architect Skinner be requested to revise the plans and specifications as needed to reduce
project costs to meet the budgeted amount, whereupon staff will advertise the revised
project for bid.
