Board approves Wisconsin Avenue change order and $127,894.03 pay application

The Frederic Village Board on Jan. 12 approved Change Order #3 for the Wisconsin Avenue reconstruction project, moving the substantial completion date to Feb. 10 because street-light poles have not arrived. The board also approved Pay Application No. 6 for $127,894.03.

D. Lindh of MSA was present to explain the change order and the pay application and recommended approval of the payment as presented. On the change order, the board approved a motion by P. Swenson with R. Lillehaug seconding; the motion carried. The pay application was approved on a motion by B. Harlander with R. Lillehaug seconding; the motion carried.

The change order shifts the timeline for project closeout rather than altering the pay application amount recorded at this meeting. No detailed contractor schedule or revised cost breakdown was included in the meeting record. The board did not record a roll-call vote tally in the minutes; the minutes list the outcome as "Vote: Carried."

Next steps noted in the minutes: the project will proceed toward the revised completion date of Feb. 10 and the board approved releasing Pay Application No. 6 in the amount recorded. Any further contract amendments or additional pay applications will appear on a future agenda if required.
