ITEM 4 - IN THE RELOCATION OF THE TWO TOILET ROOMS IN THE SOUTH END OF THE JUDGES' AREA, THERE WAS ADDITIONAL WORK BECAUSE OF THE EXISTING PLUMBING AND THE NEW FURRING, AND THE MATERIAL AND DRYWALL WAS NOT FIGURED BY THE CONTRACTOR BECAUSE HE DID NOT THINK HE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE ALL THIS OUT; S0, THIS IS JUSTIFIED.
