Commissioners approve change orders for behavioral care center and new funding agreement for Luther Road project
Summary
The board approved multiple change orders for the behavioral care center (isolation valves $14,194; on-site pharmacy $164,096; electrical/millwork $14,998) and authorized a new funding agreement for the Luther Road project after securing more federal funds and reducing CERB participation.
Commissioners approved several construction-related change orders for the county’s behavioral care center and authorized a revised funding agreement for the Luther Road infrastructure project.
Project staff explained that isolation valves costing $14,194 will allow crews to isolate portions of the building's water system without shutting down the entire facility. The board approved that change order by voice vote. Staff also presented a required on-site pharmacy per health-department requirements at a cost of $164,096; commissioners approved that addition. Separately, electrical and millwork adjustments costing $14,998 were approved to accommodate equipment sizing discovered during the FF&E phase.
On the Luther Road project, staff said a new funding agreement was available that included more federal money and reduced CERB allocation, which could free CERB funds for other projects. Commissioners moved, seconded and approved signing the new funding agreement. All approvals were recorded as voice votes in the transcript; no roll-call tallies were provided.
