Council approves $21,659 change order under existing grant; city to temporarily front 5% until state reimbursement
Summary
Council approved Change Order No. 1 (H35) for $21,659 to add signage to a grant-funded project and adjusted the budget; staff said the city will temporarily cover about $1,000 (5%) until the state reimburses the expense.
The Clarksville City Council on June 8 approved Change Order No. 1 (H35) increasing a grant-funded project by $21,659 to accommodate additional signage and authorized equivalent budget adjustments.
City staff said adding the sign work to the current grant was more efficient than creating a separate, smaller grant later and would not increase the project’s net cost. Staff noted the city would temporarily fund roughly 5% of the amount — about $1,000 — until the state processes reimbursement paperwork.
Council moved and approved the change order and budget adjustment by roll call. City staff said state reimbursement typically arrives within about two weeks after submittal. The action was tied to the economic development budget and staff said the change completes the project scope.
Next steps: staff will submit the required paperwork for state reimbursement and update city budgets accordingly.
