Background and Discussion:
This project consists of a new park and asphalt roadway extension. The park will consist of an asphalt parking lot, walking trail, concrete pads for benches, tables, and a canopy, grading for a future playground, and drainage facilities.

This change in contract includes the following:
* The final adjustment (reconciliation of actual quantities used in construction against the bid).

Maintain the original scope of the project and have the utility company to install new service pole on time.
