Board approves 30‑day extension of RNR Horn contract for Orville Wildlife Area project
Summary
The board approved a second amendment extending the award period for the Orville Wildlife Area Recreational Improvement Project contract with RNR Horn Contractors to allow time for pending state (DWR/FK) approvals; RNR Horn agreed to another 30‑day extension and the board approved the amendment by roll call.
The Sutterbutes Flood Control Agency board voted to approve a second amendment with RNR Horn Contractors Inc. that extends the time to award the construction contract for the Orville Wildlife Area Recreational Improvement Project while the agency awaits state approvals.
Agency staff explained the amendment is a time extension only: the contractor agreed to another 30‑day extension because the Department of Water Resources’ (DWR) and federal concurrence (recorded in the presentation as FK approval) remained pending on the award date. Michael Bet (agency staff) said the extension preserves the current bid position and that any contractor cost changes could not be entertained before award because doing so would be bid tampering; the staff noted they will evaluate any cost increases only after awarding the contract if needed.
A motion to approve the second amendment was made and seconded; the board recorded a roll‑call vote with the following responses: Jeff Stevens (Yes), Mike Zigener (Yes), Bruce Johnson (Yes), Bill Connley (Yes), Todd Kimmelshoe (Yes), B Shepard (Yes), Mark Boomgarden (Yes), Michael Pasqual (Yes), Charlie Hoppin (Yes), Gary Marlor (Yes), Jeremy Chapterain (Yes), Mike Morris (Yes), Chris Schmid (Yes). The motion carried unanimously on the roll call recorded in the transcript.
Staff said, after approval, that they will sign the amendment and continue coordinating with DWR to obtain the outstanding approvals needed to award the construction contract.
