Minutes of the Regular Session — November 15, 2000
Fred Pack reported that the renovations are a continuation of the repair and improvement
of the facilities that has been in progress for several years. The air conditioning has been
replaced; the lime storage facilities were removed; and the buildings have been weatherproofed.
The significant work will be the creation of an ADA compliant restroom and the refinishing of
the interiors in the administration building. The maintenance building work will include
repairing water damage, interior finishes and restroom repairs.
The original estimate for the work was $150,000. The revised estimate is $139,700. The
project will be funded from the 1998 revenue bonds.
In response to a question from Board Member Buenz, Rodney Chapman replied that the
renovation work was being coordinated with the expansion project to avoid duplication or
unnecessary work.
Board Member Buenz moved approval of the plans and specifications and authorization
for advertising for bids. Board Member Mundinger seconded the motion. The vote follows:
