The meeting record shows Jon Rosengren with Bolton & Menk participated via phone. No public testimony, questions or dissenting votes are included in the minutes.
The board’s actions advance the levee work and clear invoices tied to engineering and construction oversight. The minutes do not specify funding sources or whether the change order alters the overall project budget; those details were not provided in the record and are listed as not specified.
