Gadsden Council OKs $3,372.50 Change Order for Marina Demolition
Summary
The Gadsden City Council voted to approve a $3,372.50 change order for Bob Smith Construction to demolish an existing wooden structure at the marina in Gadsden Sports Park; the measure passed by voice vote with no roll-call tally recorded in the transcript.
The Gadsden City Council voted to approve a $3,372.50 change order with Bob Smith Construction to demolish an existing wooden structure at the marina at Gadsden Sports Park.
Councilor Wiss introduced the item during new business, saying the contractor already holds the city’s annual drainage and concrete maintenance contract and that the change order covers demolition work near the sports-park marina. "This change order would reflect an increasing cost of $3,372.50 in order to address one of these items that has come up for some demolition of an existing wood structure," the presenter said.
The council first voted to suspend rules to consider the item under new business and then moved to adopt the resolution. The motion passed by voice vote; the transcript records “aye” responses and the chair declared the motion carried but does not record individual votes or a roll-call tally.
The change order is administrative in nature and the council did not discuss other budgetary offsets or broader contract amendments during the public portion of the meeting. The chair thanked the mover after the vote and the meeting proceeded to citizen requests.
What happens next: The council’s action authorizes the change order; the transcript does not specify a contract amendment number, scheduled start date for demolition, or which city department will oversee implementation.
