Sewer relining change order 3 was scheduled for board vote April 6

What the records say

In materials published ahead of the April 6, 2026 meeting, the Alderwood Water & Wastewater District board of commissioners was scheduled to consider an action item titled 'D.S2402 2025 Sewer Relining Program Change Order 3,' listed with an 'Action-Approve' designation and about five minutes of agenda time ¹. A change order is a formal amendment to an existing construction contract, typically adjusting its scope, timing, or cost; the agenda item title alone does not state what this change order would modify or its dollar amount ¹. The item appeared under the district's engineering staff, with Paul Richart, Engineering & Development Director, and Gregg Cato, Asset Program Manager, listed among the staff associated with the agenda's action items ¹. The agenda also listed a separate action item, 'E.W2207 Water Capacity Program Amendment 4,' but the selected signal here is the sewer relining change order ¹. The available records do not establish the meeting's outcome.

• The board was scheduled to consider approving Change Order 3 for the 2025 Sewer Relining Program (item D.S2402) at its April 6, 2026 meeting.
• The item was designated 'Action-Approve' with approximately five minutes of agenda time.
• Staff listed in connection with the agenda's action items included Engineering & Development Director Paul Richart and Asset Program Manager Gregg Cato.

Why it matters

Sewer relining is maintenance work on underground sewer pipes, and a third change order to that program can affect the project's cost and schedule — details the agenda does not provide. The April 6 agenda shows the board was scheduled to vote on approving it; the available records do not establish the meeting's outcome ¹.

What changed / what's next

• The agenda introduced Change Order 3 to the 2025 Sewer Relining Program as a new action item for board approval ¹.
• The supplied agenda does not include the change order's cost, scope changes, or contractor details, and no outcome record shows whether the board approved it on April 6 ¹.
