Unapproved consultant change order (~$17,000)
Summary
The Mayor flagged that a consultant did about $17,000 of extra drainage-project work without the required prior approval, then asked for reimbursement. He pushed for the item to be deferred until staff explains who authorized the work and whether the contractor should bear the cost instead of taxpayers.
