The board approved a set of change orders and payments tied to capital projects at the meeting.
Staff recommended approving a net change of $39,472.05 for Fire Station 70 and $36,452.50 for resurfacing the Turnberry Drive cul‑de‑sac. Staff explained that the overall fire station project is expected to close about $400,000 under budget despite the remaining change orders; the additional charges included items such as concrete work and equipment connections. Trustee and staff discussion focused on the nature of recent change orders and whether procurement oversight could reduce future occurrences.

The motions for the change orders and the payments passed at the meeting.
