Council approves change order for Southwest Pump Station sewer project, restores contractor’s lost rain days
Summary
The council approved change order No. 1 for the Southwest Pump Station sewer line project to restore rain days the contractor lost during the contract period; the line serves the Toyota area.
The Tupelo City Council approved change order No. 1 for the Southwest Pump Station sewer-line project (Bid 2024-036) to restore rain days the contractor lost under the original schedule.
A staff presenter said the Southwest Pump Station project serves the Toyota area and that recent upgrades were made along Cliff and Gookin Boulevard. The change order returns rain days to the contractor’s schedule that had previously been deducted, effectively extending allowable contract days without changing the contract price as discussed in the meeting.
Council members moved and seconded approval of change order No. 1 and approved it by voice vote; no roll-call tally was provided on the record. The meeting did not include a reported dollar amount or a revised completion date for the contract.
Staff did not raise further issues or propose additional amendments at the meeting; implementation details and any revised schedule were left to project managers in the water and sewer department.
