  Event Note

  Mandatory walk-thru of all properties listed in the bid.  Competitive bidding requirements do not prevent a public owner from issuing change orders which increase, decrease, or otherwise revise the scope of work required by a public contract, so long as the revised scope of work is merely incidental to the scope of work called for by the contract when it was competitively bid.  However, a change order may not be used to circumvent competitive bidding requirements where the supplemental work so varied from the original plan, was of such importance, or so altered the essential identity or main purpose of the contract, that it constitutes a new undertaking.  In the case of a change order that is so varied from the original plan that it constitutes a new undertaking or alters the main purpose of the contract, a new round of competitive bidding may be required.
  The walk-thru gives all bidders the opportunity to examine the existing conditions at the time of the bid.
