Clerk’s Report Clerk Hirst reported on the Work Change Directive given to the city by JEO Engineering. The purpose of this directive is to connect an additional 8 service lines that were unaccounted for in the original plans to the new water main being installed and to offset the cost by reducing 206 square yards of concrete pavement that would have been the access road to well #2. Instead of pavement, the access road will now be crushed rock. This also extends the completion date by 5 days to account for the additional work RP Constructors will need to add.
