Summary

GMB told the council the pumping station will likely finish in January 2026 instead of late November. An amendment for up to $80,430 for full-time, USDA-required inspection services was presented and tabled; the council requested documentation from USDA before deciding.

Engineers Jason Lytle and Andrew Lynch of GMB updated the council that the Pumping Station project's substantial completion date has slipped from Nov. 29, 2025 to a likely January 2026 finish. The delay led GMB to present an amendment to the owner-engineer agreement to provide additional full-time inspection services required by USDA; the amendment was stated to be for an additional $80,430.00 (maximum), with final cost adjusted to services used.

Council members requested documentation from USDA showing full-time inspection is a requirement and tabled the amendment until the December meeting. No vote to authorize spending was taken; the amendment remains under consideration pending the requested documentation.
