Summary

Sponsor withdrew Ordinance 6076, which would have authorized a $27,260 contract with She Digs It LLC to build a drinking fountain at Fleming Park, after concerns were raised about the contractor's plumbing work; sponsor said the county will refile with a different contractor (US Engineering).

Ordinance 6076 — transferring and appropriating $27,260 from the 2026 park fund to authorize a contract with She Digs It LLC of Blue Springs to construct a drinking fountain at Fleming Park — was withdrawn by the sponsor on May 11 after concerns about the contractor's plumbing experience. The county executive told the legislature "the company She Digs It LLC is not, has not done a lot of of plumbing issues" and said the sponsor planned to withdraw the ordinance and return with a contract for US Engineering.

The chair acknowledged the sponsor's request and legislators concurred, after which the clerk announced the item was withdrawn. No contract was approved at the meeting; the sponsor said the project will be resubmitted with a different contractor.
