Summary
A final change order for the county construction project with DeSelva Construction adds about $17,267.72, revising the contract total to $1,018,901.72. County staff said additional drywall was necessary to accommodate HVAC ductwork in a previously unshown closet and restroom.
The commissioners reviewed a final change order for a county building project managed by the Trumbull County Engineer's Office and constructed by DeSelva Construction.
County staff said the change order (number 4) increases the contract by $17,267.72, bringing the total contract amount to $1,018,901.72. The additional cost was described as necessary to install drywall in a second‑floor janitor's closet and a first‑floor restroom to accommodate HVAC ductwork that was not shown on the original prints.
Darryl Dunnigan (Facilities) and other staff said the area was not originally on the plans; architects confirmed the space had been omitted from the prints and the drywall was required to complete ductwork. Commissioners discussed funding the change order and staff said the additional cost would be moved from the county sales tax account to the project account.
No formal roll‑call vote on the change order is recorded in the transcript; staff indicated the funding transfer would be handled administratively.
