Columbia County approves $169,842 hurricane‑related change order and $20,008 deductive change for Racquet Center
Summary
The county approved change order 6 — a $169,842 increase and 106 extra days — to repair hurricane damage at the Racquet Center and also approved change order 7, a $20,008 deductive change to reflect leftover allowances.
County staff told the Services Committee they are approving two change orders with Cher Meunimer Construction for repairs and final accounting at the Racquet Center following hurricane damage.
Change order 6 covers hurricane-related repairs to the existing portion of the Racquet Center — including fencing, lighting, tree wells, the pro shop roof, sidewalks and cleanup — and increases the contract by $169,842 and grants 106 additional days to complete the work. Staff said they expect insurance and FEMA reimbursements to cover a significant portion of the cost and will coordinate with county insurance staff.
Change order 7 is a deductive change that removes unused allowances from the contract, reducing the contract by $20,008. Staff recommended approval of both items; the committee approved them on consent.
Presenters noted the work was substantial and required coordination with insurance and federal reimbursement processes.
