Section 6A:27-9.14 - Addendum to a contract

(a) An addendum shall be required to adjust the cost of an existing contract or contract renewal.

1. An addendum to a contract or contract renewal for general education students and students with disabilities transported to schools within the school district shall be calculated based on the increase/decrease mileage adjustment stated in the original bid.

2. An addendum to a contract or contract renewal for the transportation of students with disabilities transported outside the school district shall be based on the per student, per mileage, or per vehicle adjustment stated in the original bid.

3. If the cost of an aide is not part of the bid, an addendum to a contract or contract renewal for the purpose of adding an aide may be a negotiated cost provided it does not exceed the bid threshold.

(b) An addendum to a contract or contract renewal shall be on the Commissioner-prescribed contract addendum form. The district board of education shall submit the form to the executive county superintendent for approval within 30 days of the district board of education's approval.

(c) Increased bonding shall be required when an addendum to an existing contract increases its cost.

1. When an addendum added to the contract increases the cost, additional bonding coverage shall not be required if the remaining cost of the original contract plus the additional cost of the adjustment does not exceed the amount of the original bond.

(d) The district board of education shall attach a certified copy of the minutes of the district board of education authorizing the adjustment and additional performance surety bond, if required, to the contract addendum form when it is submitted to the executive county superintendent.
