Discuss and consider action to approve Change Order Number Three for the Pflugerville Community Library Expansion and Renovation Project in the amount of $22,018.65 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the same.
Summary
This third, and final, Change Order considers Request for Proposals (RFP) 037 - 070.

A balance of $102.35 remains and is credited to the City.
A total of thirty-three Requests for Proposal (RFPs) were approved, in which 8 of the RFPs are accumulated in Change Order Number Three as additional costs. RFP: 039 was not used.
