Randolph City Council approves sewer change order #1 pending Iowa DNR and USDA sign-off
Summary
At its Aug. 20 special meeting, the Randolph City Council approved sewer project change order #1, which extends the completion date but is contingent on agreement from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. No action was taken on change order #2.
RANDOLPH, Iowa — The Randolph City Council on Aug. 20 approved a change order for the city sewer project that extends the project’s completion date, but the approval is explicitly contingent on agreement from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Councilmember Hardy moved to approve change order #1, and Councilmember Berger seconded. The minutes record the vote as “All Ayes. Motion Carries.” Councilmembers Avey, Berger and Hardy are recorded as present; the minutes do not list individual vote slips beyond the unanimous outcome.
The change order alters the project schedule but does not represent agency approvals; the minutes state the extended completion date is contingent on the Iowa DNR and USDA coming to agreement. The record does not include additional details about the length of the extension, cost implications, or a timeline for when the external agencies are expected to respond.
Council members took no action on a second change order related to the sewer system. The minutes note item #2 was discussed but that there was “no action taken”; they do not provide a reason or any direction for follow-up.
Next steps recorded in the minutes indicate that the project’s revised schedule depends on the outcome of discussions with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Department of Agriculture; the minutes do not specify dates for further council consideration or reports back from staff.
