Mover/Second: motion moved and seconded (names not specified on the record). Outcome: Approved. Vote recorded: majority yes; at least one commissioner abstained and explained the abstention as concerns about contractor design omissions and a perceived lack of direct negotiation to reduce the change order cost. No further motion details were recorded.
Notes: The board announced an executive session prior to the PCCO motion; the meeting minutes state the board returned to open session and then took the PCCO action. No dollar amount for the PCCO was stated on the public record during the motion as read in the transcript; one commissioner explicitly abstained and explained the abstention on the public record.
These items will be reflected in the official minutes and any contracts will be posted according to county procurement policies when available.
