<br />Commission Minutes-August 4, 2008 3387 <br /> <br />9. HEAD START RE-ZONING HEARING; YOUTH COMMISSION PICNIC; BUILDINGS & <br />GROUNDS PROJECTS; JAIL WATER HEATER, Committee reports <br />Mr. Montplaisir said the Fargo City Commission will hold a re-zoning hearing for the former <br />Head Start Building at their meeting on Monday, August 11, 2008. He plans to attend the <br />hearing. <br /> <br />Mrs. Johnson said a picnic for the Cass County Youth Commission will be held Wednesday, <br />August 6th at 5:00 PM on the Courthouse plaza. <br /> <br />Mrs. Johnson updated the board on buildings and grounds projects including carpet and <br />window cleaning at the Courthouse and Annex; and seal coating the floor of the jail sally <br />port, jail loading dock and restrooms at Brewer Lake. <br /> <br />Mrs. Johnson discussed the failure of a hot water heater at the jail. The tank is six years old <br />and the warranty was for ten years, but pro-rated after five years. If the county were to <br />replace the water heater tank, the cost would be pro-rated to $9,964. She said when the <br />latest jail addition was built, a smaller boiler was installed to use during summer months. <br />She spoke with a representative from Grant's Mechanical, who told her the summer boiler <br />could have a water heater exchange system added using interruptible gas, which would <br />save on operational costs. She received a preliminary estimate of $10,000 to convert the <br />hot water heating to the boiler system. After discussing the item with the county auditor, she <br />plans to use the jail maintenance fund to cover the costs, and if the budget is short at the <br />end of the year, she will request a budget adjustment and use funds from the dedicated jail <br />sales tax fund. <br /> <br />10.
