Comm. Minutes--July 6, 1992 880 25. VOUCHERS, Approved Mr. Risher reviewed the list of bills and questioned one for Braun Intertec Pavement. County Engineer Keith Berndt said this bill is for deflection testing, not for software. Mr. Eckert said he wrote a letter to Braun Intertec Pavement telling them a bill from last month for software was being held until about July 15, 1992, at which time he hoped the new County Engineer could study the situation and make a recommendation. Mr. Risher said bills are included in this list for the sports pad at the Brewer Lake, to be paid from County Park funds. MOTION, passed Mr. Risher moved and Mrs. Toussaint seconded to approve Vouchers No. 37997 through No. 39323. On roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. 26. NACO CONVENTION, SOFTWARE DEMONSTRATION, RED RIVER VALLEY FAIRGROUNDS AND COUNTY SHOP PROPERTY SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS, COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ASSOCIATION RESOLUTIONS, FUEL TANK REMOVAL, ROAD ENGINEER MILEAGE, Committee reports The National Association of Counties (NACo) Convention will be held in Minneapolis July 8-11, 1992. Commissioners Toussaint, Risher, Eckert, Wieland and County Coordinator Bonnie Johnson are attending. Mr. Shannon said the last formal presentation for software integration between county court and state's attorney, with a possible interface with the sheriff's department, will be held July 21st, after which time a meeting will be held to discuss all court software packages. A memo was received from Annette Ingulsrud, Auditor's Office, informing Commissioners of a notice from the Southeast Cass Water Resource Board of revised special assessments for the Sheyenne-Maple Flood Control District No. 1 project. Assessments for the Red River Valley Fairgrounds/Bonanzaville are $296,879.84 and assessments for the Road Department and campground area are $113,404.79. A public hearing on the reassessments for the project will be held July 15, 1992, at 7:00 PM at the West Fargo City Commission Chambers. Mr. Shannon suggested forwarding this to Frank Klein, County Tax Director, for comment and recommendation to the Commission. Mrs. Toussaint requested comments on North Dakota County Commissioners Association proposed resolutions. Mr. Wieland asked her to refer the proposed resolutions to department heads for their comments. Mr. Eckert received a proposal of $5,588 to remove the underground fuel tank from the Juvenile Justice Center parking lot. He said this cost doesn't include soil testing for possible contamination if the tank leaks and possible disposal of the tank if it cannot be reused for the emergency generator at the Courthouse. Bonnie Johnson said grant funds may be available to remove the fuel tank, and Mr. Wieland suggested investigating that immediately. Mr. Eckert asked Commissioners if a county-owned vehicle should be provided for the new County Engineer, and he talked to Mr. Berndt about it. There was general agreement that a County-owned vehicle be provided rather than paying personal vehicle miles, however, Mr. Shannon said this is a judgement call on Mr. Berndt's part since Mr. Eckert said the Road Department budgeted for new vehicles in 1992.
