Summary

Buildings & Facilities staff reported Emergency Management building plans submitted to the state, the committee approved capping an exposed fallout-shelter entrance near the Erlandson building, and an energy-audit agreement was held pending a procurement review by corp counsel and staff.

Phil Hewitt, Buildings & Facilities staff, told the committee that plans for the Emergency Management building have been submitted to the state and that the department is coordinating sidewalk snow removal with the City of Viroqua as part of winter preparations.

The committee approved a motion to cap and recover an entrance hole to an old fallout shelter near the Erlandson building after a collapse exposed the bunker.

Members also discussed a proposed energy-audit agreement presented at the prior County Board meeting. After motions to advance and reconsider the agreement, the committee voted to hold the agreement and directed Hewitt and corp counsel to review procurement and solicitation requirements before the matter returns to the General Government Committee.
