Overview: During the recent Palm Beach County School Board meeting, a portion of the discussion centered on the implications of a new legislative requirement concerning change orders in construction projects. The new law mandates that any change orders must be executed within 35 days of submission, presenting a potential challenge to the district’s current processes, especially for roofing contracts where change orders might arise sooner than anticipated. The law will not affect existing executed contracts but will apply to future ones, necessitating adaptations in the district’s project management strategies.
