Fulton County approves contractor payments and a change order for ongoing projects
Summary
The court approved multiple contractor payments and change order number 8 to cover contract adjustments and additional vendor invoices, and discussed a pipe-installation contract that will increase project cost by about $5,000 over estimate.
The Fiscal Court approved several contractor payments and a change order to align contracts with procurement requirements and to cover additional vendor invoices. Speaker 3 described change order number 8, listed invoices to Home Builders and Southern Concrete, and presented a breathing apparatus purchase totaling $57,319.12. The board moved, seconded and approved the payments and the change order.
Why it matters: Approving these payments and change orders finalizes contractor compensation tied to county construction and equipment purchases and adjusts contract terms to comply with procurement law.
Speaker 3 also reviewed a pipe‑installation procurement where two bids (roughly $12,555 and $16,000) increased the project estimate to about $32,903.07, leaving the county with a net out‑of‑pocket estimate of about $7,500 after state limits and credits. Speaker 3 said the county will need to approve a state contract and a separate contract with Calcalfee Construction to complete the work.
The court recorded motions and seconds for the change‑order and payments and approved them on voice vote during the meeting. Staff said they will bring contract documents back for signature and for any additional procurement steps required by state law.
