Summary:
This First Amendment to Agreement CD22GRAY provides additional CDBG funding; expands the project description; and increases the required property insurance coverage the YMCA must carry through the term of the Agreement.
The YMCA experienced delays in the project timeline as the County completed weatherization and exterior painting projects at the facility. During these delays, construction costs related to labor and supplies increased. Additionally, the YMCA has requested the project description be expanded to allow for the replacement of lobby lighting fixtures with LED fixtures. The YMCA has requested additional funds to cover the increased costs and complete the project. The increase to this agreement is consistent with the FY24 Adopted Budget for CDBG funds.
The additional funding requires that the amount of property insurance coverage the YMCA is required to carry for the project be increased to equal the total project construction costs.
