Facilities Committee approves project-labor agreement for Pope Correctional Facility roof replacement
Summary
The Champaign County Board Facilities Committee approved a project-labor agreement (PLA) for the Pope Correctional Facility roof replacement after amending the contract language to reflect the correct project name; the project is estimated at about $1 million and officials said they aim to complete work this fall.
The Champaign County Board Facilities Committee approved a project-labor agreement for the roof replacement at the Pope Correctional Facility after a late correction to the contract language. The contractor had already signed the PLA before the committee reviewed it.
Committee members amended the document to replace an incorrect project name in the contract language with “Champaign County Pope Correctional Facility roof replacement project.” After the amendment passed on a voice vote, the committee approved the PLA by voice vote; no roll-call tally was provided in the meeting transcript.
The committee was told the roof project is a large job with an estimated all-in cost of about $1 million. Facilities staff reported the contractor had already signed the PLA and that the agreement is the same form used previously for the County Plaza renovation, with only names and dates updated. Committee members asked for the estimated completion date; staff said they are trying to finish the work this fall because of the current roof’s condition and to avoid another winter with a failing roof.
Committee members also corrected the formal name used in the contract language to ensure future records and contract administration match the project.
No amendments to contract terms beyond the name change were recorded in the meeting minutes provided. The committee did not record a detailed roll-call vote; the action was recorded as approved by voice vote.
