Question Date Received

Directed To Response Response Date

1 Will the town waive the permit fee? 12/18/2025 Snyder Yes 12/19/2025 2 Will there be liquidated damages? 12/18/2025 Snyder No 12/24/2025 3 Will you require temporary fencing? 12/18/2025 Snyder No. The only temporary fencing needed is to keep visitors away from unsafe construction areas during games.

12/24/2025

4 Will you require a field office? 12/18/2025 Snyder The town does not require a field office. Contractor shall determine office need to properly manage project.

12/24/2025

5 To ensure accurate bidding would you ask for unit pricing on adjusting the toilet partitions, adjusting railings & seats, or replacing the railings?

12/18/2025 Snyder 1) Assume all toilet partitions and doors need adjusting and tightening. 2) Assume all bleacher railings need some level of tightening. 3) Assume 20 seats need repair/reattachement.

12/24/2025

6 A unit price for cmu cracks and mortar repointing would also provide accurate bidding.

12/18/2025 Snyder Contractor shall assume 200sf of CMU pointing on concession building.

12/24/2025

7 Please provide a spec for the screen door. 12/18/2025 Snyder Screen door shall be the "Grand Floridian" by Screen Tight or approved equal.

12/24/2025

8 Drawing S1 has boring reports, they are difficult to read, would you provide clean sheets or original copies?

12/18/2025 Snyder See attached Soils Report. 12/24/2025

9 One of the contractors for the helical piles says this design requires a minimum of 3’ between the piles. Please clarify.

12/18/2025 Cuoco The typical minimum spacing for helical piles is three times the largest helix diameter, which would be 3 feet in this case, as our largest diameter helix is 12 inches.

We used three piles in our caps for stability, not because we required the full capacity of the three piles.

When applying a reduction in capacity (group effect) by reducing the design spacing from 3 feet to 2.5 feet, we would still have the capacity to resist the required loads.

However, if the contractor would like to move the piles 3 inches, that would be acceptable as well.

12/24/2025

10 Please confirm the asphalt thickness and mix design for the Frank Deluca Field project.

12/22/2025 Snyder See attached paving detail. 12/24/2025

11 Will the range hood stay in place? Or must it be removed with all of the other kitchen equipment?

12/22/2025 Snyder Kitchen hood can remain in place if scope of work can be executed with it in place.

12/24/2025

12 After reviewing the plans, there is a conflict with which pile material the engineer wants to use for the project. On sheet S1, in the notes under the partial foundation plan, it calls out a 2 7/8" round shaft with a .276 wall thickness. On sheet S3, they show the round shaft on detail #1, and the square shaft on detail #2.

On sheet S5 under the Helical Pile notes, it calls out a 1 3/4" square shaft with an 8-10-12" plate configuration. There is no need to use two different pile types for the New Construction Piles and the Underpinning Piles, the same material can be used for both applications. Can you tell us which material is preferred.

12/22/2025 Cuoco Use 2 7/8" round shaft 12/24/2025

13 The plans call out A.B Chance products or Equal. Some manufacturers use stronger steel than others which changes the pile material capacity. Our manufacturer uses stronger steel than A.B Chance and I have a less expensive material that is rated for a design load of 37-kips. The design load on the plans is only calling for 20-kips. This is a round shaft product. Would this be applicable?

12/22/2025 Cuoco Submit product literature for review and approval if low bidder. 12/24/2025

14 Drawing A-7, Alternate 2, please clarify the extent of the chain link fence to be removed and replaced with the black picket fence.

12/22/2025 Snyder See attached drawing A-7 mark-up 12/24/2025

15 Please advise if bleacher paint stripping behind and under seating is intended in scope of work?

12/22/2025 Snyder Yes. The intention is to remove all visible paint from all bleacher elements including behind and underneath.

12/24/2025

16 Please advise intent of existing Ticket Booth and Souvenir buildings if Alternates 4a and/or 4c?

12/22/2025 Snyder Removal of Ticket Booth building shall be included in Alternate 4a, and removal of Souvenir building shall be included in Alternate 4c so paving in building area can be completed.

12/24/2025

12/24/2025 Snyder See attached January 2000 structural drawings. Accuracy of drawings to existing condtions cannot be confirmed.

1/6/2026

21 Because of the low overhead height, could the existing Grandstands be removed for shoring purposes?

12/24/2025 Cuoco This is a Means and Methods issue- this would need to be approved by and coordinated with the town.

22 If the Grandstands cannot be removed, would it be possible to re-engineer the new supports to only have 2 new concrete piers?

Concern is there is not enough room for a machine to excavate around the existing structures.

12/24/2025 Cuoco No 1/6/2026
