Pandora council approves $345,243 change order for water tower project
Summary
The Pandora Village Council approved Change Order No. 8 for the water tower replacement contract, increasing the contract by $345,243.21 to add pumps, a transmitter and other improvements; council authorized the change on unanimous vote.
The Pandora Village Council on Jan. 28 approved Change Order No. 8 for the village's water tower replacement project, adding $345,243.21 to the contract and authorizing equipment and administrative costs.
Council members reviewed an itemized list attached to the change order that included replacement pumps and a generator ($189,530.33), a transmitter and chlorine monitor ($60,365), valve replacement work at the village's water treatment plant ($42,906.93) and contractor fees for bond and insurance extensions and administration ($20,000). The change order record as provided to council also listed other line items with amounts recorded as incomplete in the minutes; council approved the overall contract price adjustment as presented.
Mrs. Diana Bradic moved to approve the change order; Ms. Amanda Dettrow seconded. The motion passed on a unanimous vote.
Mayor Jeremy Liechty and council said the change order follows ongoing engineering and construction work connected to the recently completed water tower that went into service in August 2024. The council did not amend the project's funding source in the meeting minutes; details about payment sources and any impacts to user rates were not specified during the discussion.
Next steps noted in the record: the contractor will proceed with the added work under the amended contract price, and staff will continue routine project oversight and coordination with the village engineering firm.
