The project consists of reconstruction of the promenade walkway topping slab, the brick masonry wall adjacent to the plaza walkway, the steel lintel above aluminumframed windows at the lower level promenade area, and the planter perimeter benches over the swimming pool area. Funds are available from the Auxiliary Facilities System Repair and Replacement Reserve Fund. A schedule of the bids received and a description of the alternates have been filed with the secretary of the board for record.
