Emery County LBA ratifies Rocky Mountain Power contract, approves Huntington Senior Center change orders
Summary
The Board of Local Building Authority of Emery County ratified a power contract with Rocky Mountain Power and approved change orders for the Huntington Senior Center on Dec. 17, 2024; members also flagged the need for close budget oversight as the project nears completion.
The Board of Local Building Authority of Emery County on Dec. 17 ratified a contract between Rocky Mountain Power and Emery County to provide power service at the Huntington Senior Center and approved three change orders for that project.
Speaker 3 said the contract was handled at the county commission meeting and that the project’s funding flows through the Local Building Authority. "We do have, like, on the Gasification building, we have the final TSJ invoice that was just signed... And we've requested the final hundred thousand from the state of Utah on that project, and we have about a hundred and 19,000 left to spend," Speaker 3 said, describing recent invoice and reimbursement activity.
The board moved to ratify the Rocky Mountain Power contract; Speaker 2 made the motion and Speaker 4 seconded. The board voted in favor (ayes recorded as Jensen, Leonard and Citrott). The board then considered change orders 3, 4 and 5 for the Huntington Senior Center. Speaker 1 summarized the line items: change order #3 an additional cost of $7,670; change order #4 produced a credit of $9,500 after a fire-alarm-system adjustment; and adding a different CO2 detector cost $24.61. Speaker 4 moved to approve the change orders and Speaker 2 seconded; the board approved the change orders (ayes recorded).
The transcript records a total additional cost for the three change orders as $631.50. The itemized numbers quoted aloud ($7,670; -$9,500; $24.61) do not arithmetically equal that total; the record did not clarify the discrepancy.
Speaker 2 raised a general budget concern after the approvals, urging the board and staff to closely monitor costs so the project does not exceed available funds. The board also discussed that final invoices will be submitted for reimbursement where applicable.
The board did not record further conditions or follow-up reporting requirements for the contract or change orders in the meeting record.
