Council adds CTG Construction change orders totaling $250,000 to consent calendar; consent agenda approved
Summary
The city attorney asked to add a late item to authorize the city manager to execute change orders 1–3 with CTG Construction for a total of $250,000. The item was added to the consent calendar, and the council approved consent items numbered 5 through 14 without recorded objection.
The city attorney requested that the City Council add a late item titled "City Hall West Wing Office Renovation Construction Change Order Approval" to the regular agenda. The request asked the council to authorize the city manager to execute change orders 1 through 3 to the contract with CTG Construction for an aggregate amount of $250,000.
The city attorney told the council the item "came to the attention after the agenda was posted and there is a need for the City Council to take immediate action in the form of approval of this item in order to avoid project delays and to adhere to our contractual obligations." The attorney specifically said staff sought authorization "to authorize the City Manager to execute change order number 1 through 3 to the contract with CTG Construction in the aggregate amount of $250,000." (City Attorney, staff communication.)
Council members agreed to add the item to the consent calendar. The council then moved and seconded the consent calendar (items 5 through 14, including the added item). The clerk recorded no public speakers on the item. Mayor Rounds called for the vote; the minutes record "All in favor? Aye. Opposed?" with no opposition voiced and the chair stating the motion carried.
What this means: the authorization allows the city manager to sign the listed change orders to CTG Construction so the west wing renovation work can proceed without the project delay staff warned could occur if the council did not act.
Details in the record did not identify who made or seconded the motion on the record, and no roll-call tally was read into the minutes for the consent vote.
