During old-business discussion, Rob updated the board on the sports complex construction and asked the board to pay an outstanding contractor invoice.
Rob said the most recent invoice (identified as invoice No. 5 from the contractor named in the transcript as Effinger and Norman, later referenced once as Effingham Norton) covered spray-foam insulation and interior metal work and that baseboard heat was added to five rooms. He noted additional change orders — roughly $30,000 — tied to concrete and fixture changes and said a final invoice was expected.
Rob added, "Desperate need of it," describing community demand for the facility. The board moved and seconded payment of the $10,000 invoice; the motion carried on a voice vote.
The chair then introduced a late invoice for the county EMA building design submitted by Gary Hash. The invoice requested a $1,000 final installment payable to SD Barnes Construction (Scott Barnes). Member Danny moved to pay the $1,000 invoice; Matt seconded; the motion carried.
The meeting record does not include roll-call vote tallies for either motion; both were recorded as carried on voice votes. The board confirmed its next meeting date as May 20 before adjourning.
