Spencer County approves $1,942 change order for new animal shelter; shelter near move-in
Summary
Fiscal Court approved a $1,942 change order for the Spencer County animal shelter related to floodplain-required longer posts and heard that the shelter is nearly ready for occupancy after site work.
Spencer County Fiscal Court approved payment of a $1,942 change order for work on the county’s new animal shelter during its March 3 meeting.
The contractor’s documentation in the meeting packet attributed the additional cost to floodplain elevation requirements that required three-ply laminated posts to be 2 feet longer so the posts meet code elevation requirements. The court moved and passed the payment (motion by Esq. Travis, seconded by Esq. Stump).
Judge Scott Travis also reported that county staff member 'Todd' had been at the shelter placing rock and that the facility was "almost ready to move in," indicating construction and site work were nearing completion. The packet included contractor paperwork summarizing the original contract amount and the final cost showing the $1,942 increase.
The court approved the change order by voice vote with Esqs. Cotton and Eldridge absent. No additional funds beyond the change order were requested at the meeting; the contract documentation remains on file with the county clerk.
