Guadalupe County commissioners approved a $69,516 transfer between two emergency-center contracts on Nov. 3. The change increases the Emergency Response Center contract and decreases the Emergency Operations Center/Warehouse contract by the same amount.

The transfer moves money between existing contract lines without raising the combined contract amount for taxpayers tracking the facilities.

From the source record

Signed change ordersEmergency-center contract reallocation
The contract sum will be increased by this Change Order in the amount of $69,516.00.

The Emergency Response Center change order increases one contract while the paired warehouse and operations-center order decreases the other.

What each order changes

Before the change orders, the Emergency Response Center contract stood at about $6.63 million and the Emergency Operations Center/Warehouse contract at about $9.15 million.

The signed Emergency Response Center change order raises that contract to about $6.7 million. The paired Emergency Operations Center/Warehouse order lowers its contract to about $9.08 million.

Contract amounts before and after Change Order No. 4, approved Nov. 3, 2026
ContractBeforeChangeAfter
Emergency Response Center$6,629,606.88+$69,516$6,699,122.88
Emergency Operations Center/Warehouse$9,148,624.09−$69,516$9,079,108.09
Combined$15,778,230.97$0$15,778,230.97

The combined figures and net change are arithmetic from the two signed contract amounts.

Approval and the next record

The commissioners approved the change orders within a 5-0 consent-block vote, rather than in a separate vote on item 5.E. Neither change order changes contract time.

The next useful check is the county’s subsequent project expenditure and completion report, which can show how the reallocated contract amounts appear as work proceeds. Readers can inspect the signed Emergency Response Center order and the paired warehouse order for the contract figures.
