Council to consider $150,000 paving change order and $60,000 county concrete award
Summary
Transportation Director Randy Edwards asked council to place a $150,000 asphalt change order and a $60,000 county concrete repair award on the next agenda; councilors agreed to add the item to a future council agenda.
Transportation Director Randy Edwards told the Lexington Town Council on May 18 that the town is nearing completion of a March 2025 $3.4 million road resurfacing contract and requested authority to add $150,000 in asphalt paving as a change order to pick up omitted roads. He also reported Lexington County awarded $60,000 for concrete repairs that can be appended to the current work.
Edwards said the existing contractor has been performing well and that taking the additional scope now is cost‑effective. Council members asked for clarifications about the source of the $60,000 county award and how the funds are categorized; staff confirmed the county award derives from roadway grant/funding programs and that the local allocation is recorded in the packet.
Council voted to place the change‑order request on a future council agenda for formal consideration.
