The document outlines the process for requesting approval for change orders and contingency requests related to a contract. It emphasizes the need for all changes to be approved in writing by the appropriate City authority before any work can commence. Contractors are warned that starting work without written approval may result in them not being compensated by the City. The cost for change orders or contingency amounts should be stated as a "Not to Exceed" amount, with no reimbursements or payments approved beyond that. The form includes sections for a brief description of additional scope, cost details, and signatures from the contractor, City Project Manager, Funding Department, and City Approval. It also mentions that the contractor must follow up the preliminary approval request with final documentation and costs within ten business days of the City's signed approval.
