The commission approved a professional evacuation/safety plan needed to complete building‑permit requirements for a county livestock facility and authorized contingent work to address moisture issues in the structure’s insulation.

County staff presented Change Order No. 3: a professionally prepared evacuation/safety plan required as part of the building permit and quoted at $6,129. Commissioners approved that motion on the record. Staff also requested authority to proceed with a moisture‑resistant insulation upgrade if on‑site inspection confirms the need; that upgrade was quoted at about $16,100 and the board approved a contingent authorization, with the condition that staff return with final findings and a formal change order if the work is required. Commissioners said the action will be documented in the county’s project records and that any payment or contract for the insulation upgrade will be executed only after staff confirm the need and present the final cost impact.

The moves followed the board’s earlier approval of the livestock building project budget; commissioners noted the project remains funded and that the modest safety‑plan expense is needed to obtain final permit sign‑off.
