For purposes of evaluating Bids, the City will correct any apparent errors in the extension of unit prices and any apparent errors in the addition of lump sum and extended prices.

The estimated quantities for Unit Price items are for purposes of comparing Bids only and the City makes no representation that the actual quantities of work performed will not vary from the estimates.

(i) Section 3 projects means housing rehabilitation, housing construction, and other public construction projects assisted under HUD programs that provide housing and community development financial assistance when the total amount of assistance to the project exceeds a threshold of $200,000.

The project is the site or sites together with any building(s) and improvements located on the site(s) that are under common ownership, management, and financing.

The Secretary must update the thresholds provided in paragraph (a) (2)(i) of this section not less than once every 5 years based on a national construction cost inflation factor through FEDERAL REGISTER notice not subject to public comment. When the Secretary finds it is warranted to ensure compliance with Section 3, the Secretary may adjust, regardless of the national construction cost factor, such thresholds through FEDERAL REGISTER notice, subject to public comment.
(ill) •The requirements in this part apply to an entire Section 3 project, regardless of whether the project is fully or partially assisted under HUD programs that provide housing and community development financial assistance.
