Comm. 'Hinutes--February 6, 1990 426 35. 36. FUTURE'S COMMITTEE, Extensio~ office space discussed Mrs. Toussaint said she spoke with Rudy Radke about using office space in the basement of the Juvenile Justice Center on a temporary basis for Scott Kildahl, coordinator for the "Cass County Model" project. She said Hr. Radke is reluctant to give up some space used by the Extension Service. Hr. Shannon said the only other County space he could think of would be the Sheriff's Residence adjacent to the jail. He had an estimate of $1,550 to restore some plumbing so it could be utilized. Hr. Wieland preferred to have the Extension Service cooperate in trying to find space at the Juvenile Center, and Hr, Radke will be contacted again, VECTOR CONTROL DISTRICT, Aqreements siRned The Chairman asked if everyone had an opportunity to read the proposed agreement for administrative services and the employment agreement between the vector control district and the director, Hr. Eckert said he is opposed to the employment agreement because he feels vector control employees should be under the same rules and policies as other employees if they are considered County employees. Hrs. Toussaint said she is opposed to the agreement because she thinks a seasonal person should be paid for the number of hours worked rather than being paid by the month. Mr. Sondrall felt the vector control district should continue operating as they have in the past. Mr. Wieland said he would support the agreement at this time and said it could be changed if someone comes up with a better way of handling it. Mr. Shannon asked if the Commission could come up with something in the next one to two weeks that would satisfy all of the concerns, but Mr. Eckert felt it should come to a vote today. MOTION, failed Mr. Wieland moved and Hr. Sondrall seconded to approve the agreement for administrative services with the vector control district as developed by the States Attorney. The motion failed on roll call vote with Mr, Wieland and Mr. Sondrall voting "yes"; Mr. Eckert, Mr. Shannon and Mrs. Toussaint voting "no." Mr. Wieland said he thought the vector control district could proceed without the county's approval according to State law, He said the agreement provides for administrative services that the County is already performing. Mr. Shannon asked Mr. Young if he will receive benefits like other County employees, and Mr. Young said he would receive no health insurance benefits, no annual leave and no sick leave. The States Attorney said there are two separate agreements, and only one deals directly with the County. He said the employment agreement is between the vector control district and the director, but obviously the County has an interest in it.
