Commission approves final change order, final pay and purchase agreement for EaglePicher site
Summary
Commissioners approved three related items to close out the EaglePicher project — a final change order, final pay application and a purchase agreement that will allow EaglePicher to acquire the building — after a brief company presentation about expanding operations.
Staff presented three related agenda items to finalize the EaglePicher project: a final change order, a final pay application and a purchase agreement to transfer the property to EaglePicher once conditions are met. City staff described the administrative sequence linking the three items; company representatives said EaglePicher is in a stronger financial position and plans to accelerate investment at the site.
A company representative described EaglePicher as a battery manufacturer with defense‑industrial customers and said the firm wants to accelerate its presence at the site and finalize ownership. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the purchase agreement updates (title company substitution and adjustment to reflect payments already made) and staff confirmed the handed‑out paper superseded the packet where differences existed.
The commission approved the three items in two motions (first for item b, then for c and d together) and the motions carried by voice vote.
