The Board of Public Works approved Change Order No.1 with August Winters for the Fire Station 1 boiler replacement and voted to approve associated payments.

A city staff member said the project was bid in January but delayed when the Department of Energy issued a stop order under the prior administration; after the project resumed the city found code changes requiring an exhaust venting modification costing $2,450. The staff member named Brandon as the best person to answer detailed questions about the change order.

During the payments discussion, staff told the board the boiler replacement at Fire Station 1 is tied to a Department of Energy grant and is 100% grant funded. Board members also asked about Station 5 work; staff clarified that the Station 5 item was a transfer switch replacement, not a new generator.

Eric Payne moved the change order; Kevin Riley seconded. The board approved the change order and the payments by voice vote.
