Committee approves courthouse window-shatter treatment to be forwarded with contingency reporting request
Summary
Deputy court administrator told the committee the county would apply window shatter treatment to the courthouse first floor and the FOC building using security grant funds. Commissioners asked for a post-project report on contingency use; the committee forwarded the item to the full board with a recommendation of approval.
Rich Day, deputy court administrator (subbing for Jeremy), asked the committee to forward a plan to install window shatter treatment on the first floor of the courthouse and on the Friend of the Court (FOC) building, to be funded in part by a state grant included in the security budget.
Commissioner Bair questioned the total cost and asked about the 15% contingency. Day clarified the specific line item discussed had a base cost of $29,248 and a 15% contingency that raises the grant-funded portion to approximately $33,000; he confirmed the project is part of a larger state grant and agreed to provide a post‑project report showing how much of the contingency was used and for what purpose.
After discussion the committee moved by Williams, supported by Walls, to forward the project to the full board with a recommendation of approval; the roll call passed (Williams: yes; Bair: yes; Walls: yes; Shotwell: no; Kennedy: yes).
