Summary

Staff presented a revised change order limited to flumes and removal of unexpected rock at Richland Creek Park totaling $91,101, funded with SPLOST; third-party geotechnical testing (GeoHydro) was confirmed for validation of quantities.

Public Works staff presented an updated change order for the Richland Creek Park project that removed an earlier access-drive item and limited the request to two elements: installation of concrete flumes to control runoff and removal of an unexpected rock layer encountered during grading. Staff said these two items together total $91,101 and are funded from SPLOST; project is located in Post 4.

A board member asked whether GeoHydro is performing third-party testing and who is quantifying the quantities; staff confirmed GeoHydro is the third-party firm for testing. Staff said the flumes will help direct water flow, minimize erosion and reduce future maintenance and that the rock removal was necessary to achieve planned grades. The meeting transcript does not record a formal vote on the change order at this session.
