1) Improve High School Options - increase the availability of smaller schools serving 800-1,000 students through new construction and major renovations of existing buildings. 2) Phase Out Middle Schools - convert middle schools to small high schools and elementary schools and expand grades at elementary schools from K-5 to K-8. 3) Alleviate Elementary School Overcrowding - construct new schools, additions and annexes to relieve overcrowded conditions in a number of areas in the city. 4) Bring OPSB Facilities to a State of Good Repair - stabilize the portfolio through phased rehabilitation including exterior envelope, electrical/mechanical replacements and interior finishes: extend the life of the facilities; provide educational enhancements such as upgraded science labs and multi-media centers. Facilities assessments have been completed on all of the buildings, resulting in a prioritization of renovations needed to bring all OPSB facilities to a state of good repair. In addition to major renovations of existing schools, a number of schools needed to be replaced and construction of new schools to relieve overcrowding and provide new educational options was planned. Five new schools are currently under design or construction. The projects specifically identified in the current CIP are in various stages of development. A number of demolition projects have been completed, others are in the planning stages of design and construction.

THE FOLLOWING ARE QUESTIONS AND OPSB RESPONSES: 1. Paragraph B5 on page 8 of the RFP references a requirement to provide a performance and payment bond in the full amount of the contract price. Please confirm that bonding will in fact be required for this scope of service. It is noted that A/E and demolition projects do not require bonding and it would stand to reason that this scope of services should fall under the A/E category. Response: See item no. 3 on page one of this addendum. 2. Under the “Contract Term” section on page 10, the term is defined as three years, but expiring 12 months after award. Based upon the “Contract Extension” section which allows for 2 additional 1 year extensions, we interpret the contract term to be 1 year with 2 additional 1 year options, for a total of 3 years. Please confirm that is a correct interpretation. Response: Contract term is three (3) years with two (2) one (1) year options.
