Board OKs $55,210.50 change order for Area 7 flood mitigation; staff to investigate possible FEMA eligibility
Summary
The board approved Change Order No. 1 with Edgerton Contractors for Area 7 flood mitigation and storage improvements totaling $55,210.50 to cover hauling excess material, additional stabilization, and rework after an Aug. 9 flood. Staff said the project remains under budget and will look into FEMA eligibility.
City staff asked the board to approve Contract Change Order No. 1 with Edgerton Contractors for the Area 7 flood mitigation channel and storage improvements. The work includes hauling roughly 2,600 cubic yards of excess material off‑site ($9,600), adding gravel and geogrid where channel material was too silty, and regrading and debris removal after an Aug. 9 flood. The total change order amount presented was $55,210.50.
Staff said the contract remains under budget and that the project is nearing completion for most items. A board member asked whether FEMA funds could cover the flood‑related repairs; staff said eligibility is uncertain because the work occurred while the contract was active and that any FEMA paperwork could take years to process, but staff committed to looking into possible FEMA funding if it qualifies.
The board voted to approve the change order so the contractor can complete the necessary stabilization and hauling work.
