Summary Statement:Ms.Jordan was originally sent a proposal of one sidewalk panel needing replacement
with a second panel possibly needing replacement, dependant upon review of the tree roots. Construction
required only one panel to be replaced. Ms.Jordan contacted Engineering upon review of her bill,where
we found an error in the quantity accounting. The inspector's field notes were correct in showing only one
panel replaced,but the information was entered incorrectly into the computer, causing her to receive a bill
for two panels replaced.
This correction also requires that the final contract amount, final change order and retainage amount be
changed as the contractor was earlier paid for the replacement of two panels at this location. No other
mistakes of this type have been found.
