Teller County commissioners to consider raising jail repair contract cap to $100,000
A proposed change order would add $60,000 to the contract ceiling, add four plumbing or equipment items and extend the term through June 2027.
Teller County commissioners are scheduled to consider increasing the maximum amount for the jail’s underground-repair contract from $40,000 to $100,000 on Oct. 8. The proposed change would raise the ceiling by $60,000 and extend the contract through June 30, 2027; it does not establish that the full amount will be spent.
The Oct. 8 commissioners agenda lists consideration of ratifying Change Order No. 1 with Mid Colorado Construction LLP as a business item. The meeting is scheduled for 10 a.m., though the agenda says item times may vary.
The proposed change order lists four additions: a Nyloplast contraband trap, reinstallation of a grinder, P-traps for the gym and public restroom, and replacement of a 90-degree bend in the public restroom. The agenda schedules consideration; it does not record a decision.
