(a) The governing body approval process for change orders shall be as follows:
1. The chief executive officer of the
contracting unit or his or her designee shall file with the governing body a
request for the change order, stating the facts involved and indicating that
the proposed change order may be allowed under these rules. If the request and
justification are prepared by other than an official of the contracting unit,
they must be countersigned by the chief executive officer or his or her
designee.
2. The governing body
shall take such steps as it may find appropriate to assure that a change is
necessary and that the work will be completed.
3. The governing body shall then pass a
resolution authorizing a written amendment to a contract covering the change(s)
to be made. The exact form of this amendatory contract shall be at the
discretion of the contracting unit attorney.
4. The resolution described in (a)3 above
shall be passed before execution of the change order. No work shall be
performed or purchases made on the involved phase of the contract until the
resolution is passed.
