Commissioners discussed funding options for this change order, ultimately deciding to draw from the administration building funds, as this aligns with the original project financing. The board acknowledged the disappointment that these issues were not identified earlier in the project, but noted that the additional costs would have been incurred regardless.
In addition to the roof change order, the board addressed upcoming expenses related to air conditioning units. A motion was made to approve a future change order not to exceed $180,000 for updated refrigerant requirements and modifications to the units, which are necessary due to federal regulations. This decision is crucial as the units are already on a tight timeline for delivery.
The meeting also highlighted ongoing efforts to address heating issues at the county jail, with a proposed solution involving electrical upgrades and new electric radiator heaters at a total cost of $70,110. This proactive approach aims to prevent future heating problems.
Overall, the discussions underscored the challenges and financial implications of the hurricane recovery projects, with the board committed to ensuring that necessary upgrades are completed efficiently and effectively.
