Resolution

WHEREAS, Lewis County is renovating 2015 NE Kresky Ave., Chehalis, into a permanent night-by-night shelter for people experiencing homelessness, and has received a direct appropriation from the state Housing Trust Fund for that purpose; and

WHEREAS, Lewis County previously published a formal call for bids for shelter renovation and awarded that contract to Schwiesow Construction as the lowest bidder, at a cost well under the county's cost estimate; and

WHEREAS, the County identified a piece of miscellaneous closeout work for the project that it had not previously considered—assembly of an outdoor roof-covering to be affixed to the grounds inside the shelter fenced area—that it asked Schwiesow to do; and

WHEREAS, the Facilities Administrator signed Change order 4 for $2070 for this work, bringing the total contract amount to $103,629 (which remains within budget and well under the $160,000 county estimate for the renovations contract).

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of County Commissioners ratifies Change Order 4 with Schwiesow Construction Inc. for the above work on the Lewis County Permanent Shelter renovations project, Project #31-2408 Construction.

DONE IN OPEN SESSION this 18th day of February, 2025.
