Mr. Bob Black from Eide Helmeke Company was present to discuss Cass County's personnel policy study completed by his company. The study outlines areas of concern and makes recommendations where applicable, particularly in the area of staffing a personnel department.

The Chairman declared a recess for a meeting of the Cass County Building Authority and upon reconvening, Mrs. Stanton moved and Mr. Larson seconded to rescind the motion of October 20, 1987, approving Building Authority action on payment of Disbursement Direction No. 29 in the amount of $92,853.37.
