0:20

0:43

Board members, this is the last piece of the puzzle to hopefully complete this work and get this flash pad open to the public.

0:50

So just asking for your permission to go ahead and approve the agreement for center point to run our electrical service.

0:59

Awesome.

1:00

Make a motion approve.

1:01

I'll second that.

1:02

All in favor?

1:03

Aye.

1:04

Against motion carries.

1:07

Item B request approve and execute change order with Midwest construction for the global restroom renovation project in an amount of three thousand three hundred and ten dollars.

1:20

Ms.

1:21

Crook.

1:22

Board members, uh, this change order covers the installation of um several additional intake air vents in the restroom, and these are necessary to be installed.

1:32

So just asking your permission to go ahead and approve the change order in the amount of three thousand three hundred and ten dollars for an additional two intake air vents and one in two intake air vents and one intake air vent for two cassettes in each restroom in accordance with protocol.

1:57

Do we have any questions, comments?

2:07

Item C approve and execute change order with Dye Brothers for the Sum Pump Station Repair Project in an amount of $36,490.

2:18

Ms.

2:19

Crook.

2:20

Board members, if you'll remember, we separated the golf course irrigation project into two parts.

2:25

Um the first part was the irrigation itself, the second part was the pump station project.

2:30

Um at Hellfreck Golf Course, the location of the pump station is not ideal for where they need to run um the trench and where they need to excavate everything.

2:41

Uh we realized that if we moved it slightly and relocated that pad, they were then able to use the existing irrigation system in the meantime until the new pump got delivered, which is keeping their grass in top condition, so preventing it from dying and uh not just that but again improving the condition.

3:00

So the change order amount of $36,490 will cover the relocation of the pad in the new uh more accessible location for maintenance.

3:09

It will dig the trench and cover the excavation as well for that project.

3:13

And again, this is the final phase in that golf course irrigation project.

3:18

All right.

3:19

I'll make a motion to approve.

3:21

I'll second.

3:21

All in favor, aye.

3:23

Against motion carries.

3:26

Item D, any other business the board wishes to consider.

3:30

And are there any public comments?

3:34

Hearing a scene, none.

3:36

We do not have reports today.

3:38

So I'll need a motion to approve the acceptance of payroll and vendor claims.

3:44

So moved, second.

3:45

All in favor, aye, against motion carries.

3:49

We're adjourned.

3:51

3:52

Appreciate it.
