GOVERNMENT <br /> <br />June 28, 2002 <br /> <br />Auditor <br /> <br />Michael Montplaisir, CPA <br />701-241.5601 <br /> <br /> Treasurer <br /> <br />Charlotte Sandvik <br />701-241-5611 <br /> <br />Director of <br />Equalization <br /> <br /> Frank Klein <br />701-241.5616 <br /> <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />Cass County Courthouse <br />Fargo ND 58102 <br /> <br />Re: Water Main Break at the Highway Department <br /> <br />Dear Commissioners: <br /> <br />Keith Bemdt notified you earlier this year that due to a water main break at the <br />Highway Department, part of the new parking lot had to be dug up in order to <br />replace the water main. Mr. Berndt is requesting we use the Emergency Fund to <br />cover the cost of this unanticipated repair, which cost $14,134.93. We do have <br />sufficient funds budgeted within the Emergency Fund to handle major unanticipated <br />repairs, and we have used emergency funds in the past for major unanticipated <br />repairs, such as replacing a leaking fuel tank. <br /> <br />The County Commission needs to declare the repair an emergency in order to use the <br />Emergency Fund. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Michael Montplaisir, CPA <br />County Auditor <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: <br /> <br />Move to declare the repair of the water main break at the County Highway <br />Department an emergency due to the inability of the Highway Department facility to <br />operate without immediate repairs, and to allow the expense of the repair to be paid <br />from the Emergency Fund. <br /> <br />Box 2806 <br />211 Ninth Street South <br />Fargo, North Dakota 58103 <br /> <br />j:\AUDITOR\SCHEPPXEMERG-HWYDEPT7-22-02.doc <br /> <br />FAX 701.241.5728 <br /> <br /> <br />
