On September 21, 2021, the Board approved a First Amendment to the Construction Agreement that increased the funding to the Owner’s Allowance accounts for the projects to allow the County the flexibility, as necessary, to address fluctuations in the pricing of construction costs resulting from the ongoing pandemic.
On October 11, 2022, the Board approved a Second Amendment to the Construction Agreement that set the Estimated Guaranteed Maximum Price for the South Regional Courthouse Replacement Project.
On April 16, 2024, the Board approved a Third Amendment to the Construction Agreement that set forth specific enabling projects necessary to be completed prior to the start of construction of the 500-Car Secured Parking Garage and Plaza project and established an Estimated Guaranteed Maximum Price of $14,708,910.
