Commission approves formal request to extend Sail Away sewer CDBG project after supply-chain delay

Osage County Commission · September 2, 2026

Summary

The county approved a formal contract-amendment request and letter to the Kansas Department of Commerce asking for a roughly 3.5-month extension for the Sail Away sewer CDBG project, citing a supply-chain delay for manufactured structures.

Brett Wagner, CDBG administrator on contract with the county, told commissioners the Sail Away sewer project needs an additional 3.5 months to complete because of a supply-chain delay for a manufactured component. The project has already been extended three times, and Wagner said the engineer recommended one more extension to complete work.

Commissioner (speaker 4) moved to authorize the chair to sign contract-amendment request number 4 and an accompanying request letter to the Department of Commerce; the commission approved the request by voice vote. Wagner said he hopes the next appearance before the commission will be the project's closeout, but he warned the county may need another extension if logistics and manufacturing schedules slip.
