Commissioners approve pre-construction contract addendum for renovation of 110 North Main
Summary
The court approved a contract terms addendum and pre-construction phase with Linus Construction for the renovation of the 110 North Main Street building (RFP 2020-63100), authorizing the judge to sign; staff said pre-construction will produce a guaranteed maximum price proposal.
The commissioners approved contract terms and an addendum for pre-construction work with Linus Construction for renovation of the county’s 110 North Main Street building and authorized the county judge to sign related documents.
Purchasing staff explained the pre-construction phase allows the construction manager-at-risk to work with the architect on constructability and value‑engineering and to develop a guaranteed maximum price proposal. As Mr. Anderson put it, “During pre construction, they work alongside the architect to address constructability and develop value engineering solutions... gather the information they need to get us to a guaranteed max price proposal.” Commissioners praised the competitive procurement process and noted several vendors — including local firms — responded to the solicitation.
The court voted to approve the addendum and sign the contract, noting staff will continue through pre‑construction tasks and return with pricing and project milestones.
