Kittitas County approves Change Order No. 7 for Rodeo Grandstands; staff reports event disruption
Summary
The Kittitas County commissioners approved Change Order No. 7 for the Rodeo Grandstands. Staff reported contractor delays forced cancellation of a barrel race but said the 5-Header event remains on track; two additional change-order proposals are under review.
Kittitas County commissioners approved Change Order No. 7 for the Rodeo Grandstands project during a study session on April 27, Event Center Director Kady Porterfield said. Porterfield presented a staff report and requested the Vice-Chairman sign the change order in the chairman's absence; Commissioner Laura Osiadacz moved to approve and Vice-Chairman Brett Wachsmith seconded. The motion passed, recorded in the minutes as "Motion passes."
Porterfield told commissioners that contractor delays have required extra rock picking to restore the arena to its original condition, forcing cancellation of that week's barrel race but leaving the team "on track to hold the 5-Header event." Maintenance and Solid Waste Director Patti Stacey said there are a couple of pending change order proposals under review; details of those proposals were not specified in the minutes.
The minutes do not record a roll-call vote or individual tallies for the change-order motion. The staff report is attached to the minutes for additional procurement and budget information. The county did not identify additional funding amounts or specific contractor schedules in the verbal update; commissioners did not ask follow-up questions during the session.
The study session item followed routine Event Center project management topics and did not produce further binding direction beyond the approved change order.
