Legislature authorizes amendment to Airosmith contract for broadband work
Summary
Resolution No. 173 authorizes the County Manager to amend the Airosmith contract to add project and construction management, OSP, pole licensing, tower services, equipment shelters and DOT rail permitting, not to exceed $2,266,898.88; expenditures are reimbursable under the grant and execution is contingent on ConnectAll/ESD approval. The measure passed 4–3.
The Franklin County Legislature adopted Resolution No. 173 on July 28, authorizing the County Manager, upon County Attorney review, to amend the county's contract with Airosmith for additional broadband work up to $2,266,898.88. The resolution notes that these expenditures are reimbursable under the grant and that contract execution is subject to ConnectAll/ESD approval and resolution of any pending grant extension.
The amendment scope listed in the resolution includes project and construction management, outside plant (OSP) work, pole licensing, tower services, equipment shelters and DOT rail permitting. Legislator Lauzon moved the measure and Legislator Dabiew seconded; Clerk Heather Marlow called the roll and the resolution passed by a 4'03 vote. The resolution ties the amendment to forthcoming grant disbursement steps rather than authorizing immediate spending without further approvals.
The transcript records the authorization and dollar limit but does not include a detailed staff presentation explaining the change orders or timeline for amended work. The legislature recorded the vote and contingency conditions in the resolution text.
