Cuts $15,020.80 from Benyon's Oakland High turf contract after a field-base change

This change order lowers the price of Benyon Sports Surfaces' turf work at Oakland High School from $413,524.78 to $398,503.98. The district dropped a planned new base layer under the softball/baseball field in favor of a Brock Pad system, and the text also cites unforeseen repairs to the existing base layer. The district is buying through the California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS), a state contract list, instead of running its own bid.
