Marshall County Board of Supervisors · May 6, 2026

Summary

Supervisors approved three change-order actions for the jail construction contract — a formalization of prior requests ($7,149.89) and two additional brake-metal work orders ($16,765.43 and $30,630.60) — to finish window trim and interior finishes.

The Marshall County Board of Supervisors voted 3-0 on May 6 to approve a series of change orders with OPN Architects and Garling Construction related to the county jail project. The three approvals total $54,545.92.

The Board approved Change Order #2, which formalizes previously approved Change Order Requests #3–#6 and totals $7,149.89; Buildings & Grounds Director Lucas Baedke described it as the official contract amendment for those earlier approvals. The Board also approved Change Order Request #8 for $16,765.43 to add an exterior brake metal extension to be installed around the jail exterior windows, and Change Order Request #9 for $30,630.60 for additional interior brake metal around the windows requested by Baedke to produce a cleaner interior finish. Motions on the three items were all carried 3-0.

The change orders were presented as construction-completion and finish-quality items; the Board did not discuss additional funding sources in the minutes. The total of the three recorded actions is $54,545.92.
