Recently,the Orange County Schools began clearing a site for the new elementary school. While the <br /> contractor will burn a portion of the waste, he will haul away debris generated by road and power <br /> line clearing. The project budget did not allow for additional costs associated with hauling the <br /> debris, and the school system is requesting an additional $19,530 to cover the unanticipated costs. <br /> This amendment appropriates fund balance from the School Capital Project Fund and increases the <br /> capital project ordinance to allow for discarding debris at the school site.
