Summary
Commission discussed a change order that nets $9,091 after an $18,844 credit; additions include floor flexibility, acoustic panels, signage and drainage rework with supporting detail in the packet and the item deferred to January.
During the work session on Dec. 22 the commission reviewed a change order packet for construction work at the Annex and adjacent warehouse area. The packet shows an $18,844 credit for removing fixed concrete seating planned for the foyer and several additions that together produced a net change-order request of $9,091.
The chair described a $2,500 charge for a flexible extension that allows future floor-layout adjustments and said contractors were asked to add acoustic (sound-absorbing) panels to reduce echo in public meeting spaces; the transcript records the panel work and material line items as approximately $4,800 plus smaller material costs. Signage for the courthouse approach was quoted in the packet (about $4,327), and staff also reported the need to rework drainage at the entrance outside basement doors where existing drains have struggled during heavy rains.
Chair said detailed backup sheets are in the packet and that the change order can wait until the commission’s first meeting in January for formal action. Commissioners did not vote on the change order at the Dec. 22 meeting; the item was placed on new-business for the January meeting with supporting documentation.
