Committee approves up to $12,000 to power and outfit maintenance shed
Summary
The committee approved providing electric service and modest remodel work for a campus pole shed to serve as a short-term maintenance shop, with a not-to-exceed budget of $12,000 to meet winter storage needs for county equipment.
Committee members debated whether to invest in moving the maintenance shop to a pole shed on the campus property and how long that building might be needed while campus redevelopment proceeds. Facilities staff said the work would include concreting half the building, adding a partition wall, sheeting, and a heating unit; an electrician and the city would trench and install power.
A committee member moved to provide power and remodel the maintenance shed with costs not to exceed $12,000; the motion passed on a voice vote. Advocates said the cost is justified when compared with alternative leasing costs and the county’s near-term needs for heated equipment storage.
Next steps: staff will get firm electrician estimates and proceed with the remodel within the authorized budget.
