Summary

The board approved a $500,000 unit‑price contract amendment for Primoris to support gas distribution work, including the Pineapple Grove project; initial project funds will come from gas‑bond interest and staff said the work will extend system capacity to new development.

Fred Gattis, gas superintendent, asked the board to approve an amendment to the gas operations unit‑price contract with Primoris, increasing available funding for operational work by $500,000.

Gattis said the amendment will fund projects including the Pineapple Grove development off North Rock Road and completion of prior work in the Cabareya area. He also requested a budget transfer using interest from the gas bond proceeds to provide the project start money; staff said the action will expand customer connections and cited an expectation of adding new customers as projects proceed.

The board approved the amendment and the related budget transfer by roll call. Gattis said the work is expected to bring new service connections; no additional details on timing or exact revenues were provided at the meeting.
