The Edgerton City Council considered Change Order No. 2 for a solar water-billing modification in the amount of $6,028 and recorded a motion and second, followed by discussion about contractor markup and project responsibilities.
A councilmember moved to approve the change order and another seconded. During discussion council members questioned a 10% markup applied by the contractor and asked for clarity on which party (the EPC or general contractor) received the markup and why it was applied. One participant described it as the contractor’s “cut,” and another said it is not uncommon for a general contractor to apply markup to subcontracted work. The transcript includes questions such as why the EPC receives a markup and whether the model EPC clarifies that allowance.
The provided transcript does not include a recorded roll-call vote on this change order or a final outcome. The council discussion in the transcript focused on clarification of contract terms rather than altering the change order amount. The transcript does not include contract totals beyond the $6,028 change order or reference to an EPC contract document.
