JCI's Gravy Train
It
has been claimed that the compensation for Johnson Controls will be just 2% of the construction
costs in recent letters to the editor. But here is the compensation for Johnson
Controls as it is taken from the Master Agreement signed by School
Board Chair, Ann Wasson. The rest of the Board did not see this agreement before
it was signed, contrary to the Board's usual practice which is to have each
contract printed in the Agenda before approval. Good luck
figuring out how much JCI will earn by the end of the project. From the Master
Agreement, ATTACHMENT C page 1 of 2:
3.0% Compensation For Basic Services as
described in Attachment D,

3.1.1 Compensation for
Program Management computed at 2% of the total Construction Cost. 3.1.2 Plus
