Council approves $147,000 change order for Sports Park expansion
Summary
The Greenville City Council unanimously approved a $147,000 change order with Dobson Peterson to address a structural design adjustment for the Sports Park expansion, city staff said. Officials said the work increases structural capacity and avoids a time-consuming redesign.
The Greenville City Council voted unanimously to approve a $147,000 change order with Dobson Peterson for the Sports Park expansion.
City staff described the change order as a structural design modification that increases the structure's load capacity. "So, essentially, what it's gonna do is take 9 pounds per square foot, still framed at 12 pounds per square foot," a city presenter said, explaining the adjustment was reached after negotiations to avoid a full redesign and delay. Staff said the revision will result in a sturdier structure for the Sports Park Center.
Council members offered no objections and approved the measure by voice vote. The staff presenter said the change was negotiated with the contractor and was necessary to align the delivered structure with the project's expectations. No further schedule changes were reported during the discussion.
The approval authorizes the city to proceed with the change order under the existing Sports Park expansion contract with Dobson Peterson; details about contract milestone adjustments or new completion dates were not specified.
