TAC approves Himrock Road change orders and Donation Road Bridge work; inspection funding pending for Donation Road
Summary
The TAC approved a $55,622 net increase for Himrock Road Bridge due to unforeseen structure removal and added pile length and approved construction funding for Donation Road Bridge (estimated ~$568,236), noting inspection funds remain to be identified by the municipality.
The MPO TAC voted to approve recommended change orders and project funding recommendations for two bridge projects.
Matt Jonas presented two change orders on the Himrock Road Bridge that produced a net increase of $55,622. Jonas said the first addition addressed removal of an unforeseen structure where foundations were being placed (about $5,676.06) and the second related to additional pile length (about $49,944.06), resulting in the net increase. After questions about municipal approvals for items in the packet, members moved to approve the change orders and the motion carried by voice vote.
On Donation Road Bridge, Jonas said the current construction estimate is about $568,236, roughly $200,000 less than earlier projections, which improves cash‑flow assumptions. He noted the figure did not include inspection funds and that the municipality would advise how inspection would be handled; the committee recommended approval of the work and voted to proceed. The transcript recorded at least one voice indicating opposition during that vote.
Both items were presented as subcommittee recommendations and approved by the TAC; follow‑up remains on identifying inspection funding for Donation Road Bridge.
