Summary

County staff reported broken-pipe damage at the Clearview project will be covered by the contractor's insurance, tornado-damage repairs are nearly complete, and jail operations updates included pod cleaning, a filled custodian post and energy-saving boiler shutdowns.

During the March 5 meeting of the Dodge County Building Committee, staff provided multiple facilities updates: the Clearview Concrete Patios project is out for bids and the committee was shown photos of broken-pipe damage; the minutes state the repair cost will be covered by the contractor's insurance carrier.

Tornado-damage repairs were discussed: the impound building work is complete except for insulation, and vendor Sure-Fire is still awaiting coils for Henry Dodge rooftop units. Director of Physical Facilities John Nehls also reported that the Land Resource and Parks project is complete.

On jail operations, committee minutes note pod cleaning is expected to finish about March 19; boilers in J-pod have been shut down to reduce electric and gas costs; the department has filled the custodian position at the jail; and staff will provide contractor escorting during an upcoming inmate phone system upgrade once pod cleaning is finished.

The minutes do not list repair cost figures, insurance claimant names, or delivery dates for rooftop coils. Committee members did not take formal votes on these updates at the March 5 meeting.
