Board approves Crisis Center change orders; Board president records lone NO on block‑color change
Summary
Supervisors approved two change orders for the county Crisis Center — $4,300 for a block color change and $3,350 for a slab difference — with Supervisor Jessie Medlin voting no on the block‑color item; contingency funds were reported at about $175,000.
Architect Andrew Adams presented two change orders for the DeSoto County Crisis Center on May 4: change order #11 for a new block color at $4,300 to be paid from contingency funds, and change order #10 for a slab‑difference adjustment at $3,350. The Board approved both change orders; Supervisor Jessie Medlin recorded a NO vote on change order #11 while the other four supervisors voted YES.
Adams told the Board approximately $175,000 remained in contingency funds after the approvals. Supervisor Ray Denison and Supervisor Mark Gardner moved and seconded the motions for the two change orders; the Board authorized the clerk to issue checks for the approved amounts.
The change orders were recorded in the official minutes and made part of the project record; no additional budget appropriation beyond contingency spending was requested at the meeting.
