Daggett County Municipal Building Authority approves three change orders for Health, Business and Community Center after contractor cites wrong door hardware

The Daggett County Municipal Building Authority approved three change orders for the Health, Business and Community Center project totaling $6,503.17 during its March 10 meeting.

Committee member moved to consider change order number 6 in the amount of $352.18 for added access related to the AV server; the motion carried on a voice vote. The board then approved change order number 7, $2,963.84, for purchase and installation of a valve for the fire riser line. Finally, the board approved change order number 8 for $3,187.15 to change the hardware group for several doors.

Committee member told the board staff had broken out remaining county expenses — including fence negotiations with the local school district, access controls, IT infrastructure and facility supplies — and reported the project is carrying a contingency of $435,999. "That is correct," the project representative confirmed when asked whether the contingency is from existing funds.

Later in the meeting, the project representative Jesse explained the largest change order: "That was a door that ended up being an electronic door that ended up having the wrong hardware. It had standard cylindrical hardware on it. And so it ended up needing power ran to it and a bunch of other things that resulted in the change order you see." The board discussed specifics of which doors and hardware groups were affected and agreed members could request additional detail after the meeting.

The board authorized Jesse to sign the approved documents digitally and affirmed the approvals by voice vote. No roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript; minutes report the approvals as voice votes. The board closed the agenda items and moved to adjournment.
