Supervisors approve $33,197 change order for Pine Crest renovation

Black Hawk County Board of Supervisors · March 17, 2026

Summary

The board approved change order #005 for the Pine Crest renovation at 1407 Independence Ave., Waterloo, for $33,197. Facilities staff said the order included 11 items such as load testing emergency exits and replacing flush valves to address double-flush complaints.

The Black Hawk County Board of Supervisors approved change order #005 from Peters Construction for the Pine Crest renovation in Waterloo, totaling $33,197.

Carol Cornelius, facilities operations manager, described the work at length: “There were 11 different items on this change order,” she said, citing structural adjustments, HVAC work, painting, load testing of two existing emergency exits at the chapel and first-floor east exit, and swapping flush valves after complaints about double-flushing. Staff said some deductions were possible because existing wall cutouts in the former VA building could be reused for clinic exam rooms, saving structural costs.

Supervisors asked for clarification about why certain items—such as load testing—were added; staff said the fire marshal requested the tests. The resolution to approve the change order was offered, seconded and passed by roll call vote.
