Boone County board OKs courthouse masonry change orders, sets cap at $45,323.63

Boone County Board · August 20, 2026

Summary

The county approved three change orders for courthouse masonry restoration to address unseen brick deterioration and finish exterior work; board amended the total to a not-to-exceed $45,323.63 before passing the motion on roll call.

The Boone County board approved three change orders related to masonry restoration of the courthouse after staff explained additional deterioration discovered during restoration work.

Staff said the change orders cover additional pointing and cornice painting where masonry deterioration was not visible during the original evaluation. The board amended the motion to set a not-to-exceed total of $45,323.63 before voting to approve the work.

"Items two and three are voluntary but highly recommended to keep the exterior envelope in the same sequence," said Mr. Darnell, who recommended approving all three items. Board members discussed asking the city to share sidewalk expenses where applicable and questioned whether some costs could be offset by other budgets.

The board proceeded to a roll-call vote and carried the motion to approve the change orders as amended.
