On October 30, 2023, the County provided $75,000.00 in CDBG funding to PARC for costs associated with the replacement of the fire alarm system at PARC’s Bert Mueller Group Home. During the bidding process, the bids for the fire system came back three (3) times higher than the amount budgeted for the project. PARC does not have the resources to cover the additional project costs and has requested a revision to the scope of work from the removal and replacement of the fire alarm system to the removal and replacement of all interior doors, another needed project at the facility.
The Agreement requires that performance be completed by September 30, 2024. PARC is unable to complete the project on or before the expiration date. It is necessary to extend the term of the Agreement three (3) months to December 31, 2024, as additional time is required for completion of the revised project. As a result of the term extension, it is necessary to extend the term of the Restricted Period three (3) months to January 1, 2032, restricting the use of the property to serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
