Commission approves $451,238 change order to wrap up water treatment plant improvements
Summary
Commission approved work change directives (totaling $327,462) and a combined change order No. 10 for $451,238 to close out Phase 2 of the water treatment plant improvements; staff said the work is roughly 95–96% complete and aimed at mid‑2026 completion.
The Junction City Commission approved work change directives and a consolidated change order to finish Phase 2 of water treatment plant improvements.
Engineering staff told commissioners the two work change directives (1‑15 and 1‑16) total $327,462 and that those items will be wrapped into change order No. 10, which carries a combined amount of $451,238. Staff said the additional work had already been accounted for in the project's budget and contingency and that approving the change order consolidates the directives as part of the contract closeout.
On project status, staff reported the plant was about "95, 96" percent complete and estimated substantial completion around mid‑2026. Commissioners asked whether the directives represented new scope beyond previously approved amounts; staff replied the amounts were already reflected in contract totals and contingencies, and that the change order is a standard step in the contract closeout process.
A commissioner moved to approve change order No. 10; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
What happens next: staff will finalize the paperwork to wrap the directives into the change order, track remaining budget allowances, and continue to oversee completion work into mid‑2026.
