Summary

Engineering reported the 2025 paving project closed out slightly under contract and the board authorized the final change order. Separately, staff requested and the board approved an appropriation to cover November–December bills after a contract renewal increased rates (transcript cites approximately $637,136 as the appropriation figure).

Paul (Engineering) told the board the 2025 annual paving project was complete and that final change order No. 1 came in approximately $34.08 under the contract amount. The board authorized the change order and authorized the mayor to sign the final documentation.

Separately, staff explained the Best Way waste management contract renewed recently and new rates were not reflected in the current 2025 budget, leaving November and December bills unpaid from 2025 appropriations. Staff requested an appropriation to cover those two months so the municipal account can pay the invoices; a figure was discussed in the meeting transcript (appearing as approximately $637,136). The board approved the appropriation.

Staff said the renewed Best Way contract runs on a five‑year cycle and the 2026 budget will incorporate the new rates for future months.
