Architect Richard Moorhead and Scott Krueger reported on the Courthouse construction and remodeling project. The Commission agreed with the architect to follow the color scheme for the remodeling and the south addition that was established in the north addition, with one exception being a slight change in the carpeting. Scott Krueger stated that a meeting will be held with all of the department heads in about one week to inform them of time frames concerning their departments. The Regional Child Support Unit needs to have the Building Committee address a change in their space needs at this time. Mr. Sondrall moved and Mr. Larson seconded that the Maintenance Department' s pickup be repaired at Champion Auto at a cost of $1,300.00 with a 12,000 mile or one -year guarantee, this to be paid from the Courthouse Maintenance budget item. On roll call vote, the motion carried unanimously. Sheriff Don Rudnick reported on results of a Salary Review Committee survey. He stated that the survey indicates that County employees would like to see the number of committee members increased, with representation from each department. Mr. Larson suggested that two more employees be selected to serve on the committee, but Mrs. Stanton asked that no decisions be made until Commissioner Eckert is present. Sheriff Rudnick also stated that the Commission has not finalized employee salaries for 1986, and he recommended that they make a decision on all of those which are in question. The Chairman suggested that the Commissioners review the print -out from the Sheriff, and the matter was placed on the agenda for next Tuesday. The roof of the Juvenile Justice Center leaked water into the building this past weekend, shorting out the Child Support Enforcement Unit's computer system. The Commission felt that drainage and inadequate insulation are the problems. The States Attorney was in agreement that this would be considered an emergency situation. Mrs. Stanton moved and Mr. Larson seconded that Scott Krueger be authorized to contact local roofing companies for proposals to repair the roof on a short -term basis and a long -term basis, and to correct the heat loss problem. On roll call vote, the motion carried unanimously. Insurance claims have been filed and Mr. Krueger stated that he was advised by Bob Dawson of Dawson Insurance Agency to take whatever steps are necessary in the meantime to repair the damages. Mr. Larson moved and Mr. Sondrall seconded that Vouchers No. 60,636 through No. 60,827 be approved and ordered paid. On roll call vote, the motion carried unanimously.
