Summary

Council approved pay request #13 of $230,546 to King Ling for the State Health Police Department renovation, noting total payments to date of roughly $2,763,400 and that construction is about 75% complete; council also approved a change order consolidating several smaller items and staff reported approximately $300,000 of contingency remains.

City staff presented payment and change-order requests related to the State Health Police Department renovation and the council approved both a pay request and a bundled change order.

Mr. Gordon explained pay request #13 for $230,546 and said total payments so far to contractor King Ling amount to $2,763,400 (as spoken in the meeting). He reported the project is about 75% complete and that substantial completion is expected in early June; recent progress items included drywall finishing, above-ceiling HVAC work and exterior masonry.

Council then considered change order #2, described as a collection of smaller items accumulated over recent months rather than a single large change. Finance staff (Britney) said the contingency balance remained healthy — roughly $300,000 — and the change order was approved by roll call.

What happens next: Staff and the city’s architect will continue progress monitoring toward substantial completion and implement the approved payments and change orders; the council will be updated on completion and final accounting.
