Board approves $41,828 change order for courthouse front entrance after asbestos discovery
Summary
A change order with Cooley Construction for $41,828 and 124 additional days was approved to address asbestos discovered during a front entrance renovation, county staff said the change will allow work to resume.
The Oklahoma County Board of County Commissioners approved a $41,828 change order with Cooley Construction and added 124 days to the schedule for a front entrance renovation after staff reported the discovery of previously unidentified asbestos.
Staff said workers had to remove a wall that contained asbestos, which delayed progress; the change order is intended to cover the additional work and time needed to get the project back on track. Staff recommended approval, and the board voted in favor.
Project managers said they expected significant progress on the renovation in the week following board approval.
