City of Laurel places Resolution R25-88 on special meeting agenda to authorize change order with Knife River

The City of Laurel placed Resolution R25-88 on its special City Council meeting agenda for Sept. 25, 2025, requesting authority for the mayor to approve a change order with Knife River for the Southside Paving Project, according to the agenda document.

The agenda entry includes only the resolution title — “A Resolution Of The City Council Authorizing The Mayor To Approve A Change Order With Knife River For The Project Known As The Southside Paving Project” — and does not include a staff report, the dollar amount or scope of the proposed change order, supporting materials, or a recorded vote. The agenda also documents standard meeting items including the consent calendar, a public hearing slot, audience participation, and opportunities for council and mayoral updates.

Because the materials provided were the meeting agenda only, details commonly associated with a change order — including the reason for the change order, the proposed additional cost or contract adjustment, which council member moved the item, whether it was seconded, the discussion that occurred, public comments, and the vote tally — are not specified in the provided materials.

The agenda names Knife River as the contractor associated with the Southside Paving Project but does not include contract numbers, bid history, or funding source information. The City Clerk-Treasurer contact information is included in the agenda for inquiries, and the agenda notes the meeting begins at 6:00 p.m. in Council Chambers.

If the council approved or otherwise acted on Resolution R25-88 during the meeting, those outcomes and any supporting documents were not included in the provided agenda packet and are therefore not reported here.
