Council approves Trace Creek change orders; one member objects

City of Morehead Council · September 15, 2026

Summary

Council approved two change orders for the Trace Creek Construction project—including added receptacles, lighting and foundation remediation—with the roll call showing one 'No' vote recorded from Middleton.

A Trace Creek Construction representative told the council the project is roughly 70% complete on drywall and crews are preparing exterior concrete and asphalt work. The contractor said HVAC, electrical and painting remain ongoing inside the structure.

Council approved two change orders that included added receptacles requested by Chief Anderson, additional lighting, remediation for unsuitable soils at foundations and a credit for deleted security-system labor. The contractor identified roughly $37,000 on the direct purchase order side and about $12,000 in associated amounts for the other change order. On the roll call vote the majority approved the change orders; Middleton recorded a "No."
