At a June 2025 meeting of the Emery County Local Building Authority in Castle Dale, the board approved the March 4, 2024 meeting minutes, authorized payment of bills through the Local Building Authority and ratified change orders 11, 12 and 13 for the Huntington Senior Citizen Center project.
The authority’s presiding officer said a motion to approve the March 4, 2024 meeting minutes was made, seconded and approved with Board member Warwood, Board member Leonard and Board member Jensen recording “aye.” The board then moved and seconded to approve bills to be paid; that motion passed with Warwood, Leonard and Jensen voting “aye.”
The board ratified change orders 11, 12 and 13 for the Huntington Senior Citizen Center project. Change order 11 changed the kitchen finish from rubber base to tile, increasing the contract by just over $2,500; change order 12 covered a modification to the dishwasher drain (amount not specified); and change order 13 provided a landscaping credit, a reduction of just over $20,000. Board members said those cost changes remained within the overall project budget because of earlier landscaping scope changes.
Board members discussed scheduling a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Board members and staff suggested avoiding the county fair period and noted July and early August are busy; one board member said landscaping likely will not be completed until fall but the building could be used in the meantime. On landscaping, the board reported Roe Zwolle (design) will prepare plans, the county will supply rock, and volunteers have offered help from the Master Gardeners and from Jones and DeMille. The county indicated it can provide some funding for irrigation and plant materials and that grants are being explored for additional planting costs. The board did not set a firm date for the ribbon cutting.
The meeting closed after any other regularly coming business was called; the presiding officer adjourned the session.
