Board approves change order for retaining wall on Prowley Road as part of 2025 miscellaneous concrete project
Summary
The board approved a change order adding $15,840 to the 2025 miscellaneous concrete project for a retaining wall on Prowley Road; staff said the amount fits within the project allowance and will complete required slope stabilization and street preservation work.
Onalaska officials approved Change Order No. 1 for the 2025 miscellaneous concrete project May 6, adding $15,840 to install a retaining wall on Prowley Road.
Jared Holter told the board the wall was part of the capital improvement plan but not included in the original bid package; staff pursued a change order after evaluating bid prices and found the change order cost favorable. Board members confirmed there is sufficient budget in the miscellaneous concrete program to absorb the cost.
Discussion clarified the wall is a safety and slope‑stability measure, not merely an aesthetic improvement; staff said the city owns the right‑of‑way in the area and will proceed with construction under the approved change order.
