Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on approving the appointment of Williamson County Facilities Project Manager, Tom Stanfield, with general authority to approve change orders for the contract with Chasco Constructors in relation to the Williamson County Brushy Creek Trail Project for any increase or decrease in cost of $30,000.00 or less in accordance with Section 262.031 of the Local Government Code – Changes in Plans and Specifications; provided, however, the original contract price may not be increased by more than 25% and the original contract price may not be decreased by 18 % or more without the consent of the contractor.

A request is being made for this authority due to the nature of performing contract work on the Brushy Creek Trail and the necessity of an uninterrupted workflow to allow for continuity of schedules.  Section 262.031 of the Local Government Code allows for the grant of such authority up to $50,000.00.  Tom Stanfield will be serving as the Project Manager on the project.  Any change orders that are approved by Tom Stanfield will be placed on the Commissioners Court’s Consent Agenda the following week.
