This document is an Addendum No. 1 for the Grosse Ile Township Schools 2022 Bond - Athletics Phase 2 project, issued by Foresite Design Inc. on March 17, 2025. The addendum modifies the original bidding documents for renovation work at Grosse Ile High School, specifically focusing on athletic facilities. Key changes include extending the bid due date to Thursday, March 27 at 11:00 AM and issuing updated project manual documents and drawings related to electrical systems, baseball and softball equipment, dugout structures, and other athletic facility improvements. The addendum covers multiple sections including electrical requirements, demolition, conduit systems, and various athletic field equipment specifications.
The addendum includes several substitution requests for baseball and softball equipment, such as bases, on-deck circles, dugout amenities, foul poles, and electrical components. A pre-bid walkthrough sign-in sheet is attached, and the documents provide detailed information about new electrical drawings, fence modifications, and site preparations. The project involves comprehensive renovations to the existing athletic facilities, with specific attention to electrical systems, field equipment, and structural improvements. Bidders are required to note the addendum on their proposal form, and failure to do so may result in disqualification.
