Board approves Change Order for DD 4 Lat 11 Mallard WPA citing sandy soil conditions; amount in transcript unclear
Summary
Supervisors approved Change Order #2 for Joint Drainage District DD 4 Lat 11 Mallard WPA due to sandy soil conditions. The transcript records an amount with a typographical error (shown as "$11,7000"); the meeting record does not clarify the correct dollar figure.
Kossuth County supervisors approved Change Order #2 for DD 4 Lat 11 Mallard WPA during the Aug. 4 meeting, citing sandy soil conditions as the reason for the contract increase. The motion to approve the change order carried unanimously.
The transcript lists the change-order amount with a typographical error (shown as "$11,7000"). The board did not state an alternate corrected figure on the record; county staff should be consulted to confirm the accurate contract increase amount and to ensure procurement records match the minutes. The approval directs the county and contractor to proceed under the amended terms as discussed at the meeting.
Why it matters: change orders can alter project costs and schedules for drainage district work; clarity on the dollar amount is important for budget tracking and landowner compensation.
