The Board of <br /> Commissioner 's would be asked to approve any document which changes the <br /> scope of the project or, obligates the County further. <br /> The Attorney has cautioned that paragraphs 3 and 4 of Attachment C <br /> should be specifically noted. The actions required by these paragraphs <br /> may involve the exercise of the Board's legislative power. This power <br /> cannot be exercised by contract. <br />
