Johnson Subject: Air-conditioning Installation Costs for East Hall Date:
June 4, 2006 I am writing to inform you of the costs of
installing air-conditioning for the seven offices and two studio classrooms in
East Hall. Office and Classroom Installation Estimates
were obtained from three contractors on the costs of covering the offices and
class-rooms. All these three were in the $20,000 to $25,000 range. The work
would take about three weeks. Because the central unit would be
installed on the roof, some noise problems might occur during a four-or five-day
period. And this work could be started from this weekend, and the over-time
labor costs of about $1,500 have been included in the
estimates. Additional Installation Because a larger
installation, including a more powerful central unit, would be necessary to
handle the halls and stairways, an additional $6,000 would be required for the
equipment. If this additional work were delayed until a later time, a new
central unit would be required along with changes in the pipe
way. Subject: (46) Costs for East Hall Office and
