ITEM 4: CONTRACTS
Downtown Façade Improvements Project - Phase 1, Dollar-Limit Increase for Added Scope of Work (District 4)

During the design phase of the project, visual investigations were made to understand the existing building façades, without causing damage to the existing structures or impact to operating businesses. However, once construction began on the first seven properties, numerous unexpected conditions were encountered that were not apparent during the design phase.
