County weighing fronting $43,179 window replacement at Public Safety Building after city declines funding
Summary
Staff presented a $43,179 proposal to replace first-floor windows at the county's Public Safety Building; the city declined to participate now, and the board discussed fronting the county share if the city signs an MOU or repays the county from its next budget (city share estimated at $25,900).
County staff presented a proposal to replace first-floor windows at the Public Safety Building with a total cost of $43,179. Staff said many of the windows serve city employees and that the city has declined to budget the work now. The county's share (for county-occupied offices) would address at least part of the comfort and efficiency concerns reported by employees.
Board members discussed options: proceed with county-only windows now, front the entire cost subject to a written commitment (memorandum of understanding or letter of intent) from the city to reimburse its portion, or wait until the city budgets its share in next year's process. Staff indicated the city's estimated portion is about $25,900 per the materials.
No formal motion was taken; the committee instructed staff to pursue discussion with the city, seek a written commitment if the county fronts work, and return with a recommended path forward at a subsequent meeting.
