Floyd County approves Steinglass bids to repair vandalism at youth shelter
Summary
The Floyd County Commissioners accepted bids from Steinglass to repair windows and a door at a county youth shelter after vandalism; the board was told some repair work and estimates are already underway.
Floyd County Commissioners on June 3 unanimously approved bids from Steinglass to repair glass damage at a county youth shelter after staff said the damage resulted from vandalism by a juvenile housed at the facility.
County staff told commissioners that Steinglass has already performed about $8,000 in repair work and submitted a bid of roughly $7,300 "and some change" to repair additional windows; a separate door repair was identified at $769. Commissioners voted to accept the Steinglass bids without further discussion.
The county presentation to the board described multiple damaged windows and additional automobile and building damage being assessed. Commissioners did not identify additional funding sources during the vote and did not specify a timeline for completing remaining estimates.
No formal ordinance or grant was cited during the discussion; the action taken was acceptance of vendor bids and appropriation of the work through the county's usual purchasing process. Staff indicated the vandalism was committed by a juvenile who had been housed at the county youth shelter but provided no further details about liability or insurance claims during the meeting.
Commissioners approved the bid motion by voice vote with all present answering "aye." The board did not take further formal steps on insurance claims or make a public schedule for remaining repairs.
