Supervisors approve $1,493 electrician work to relocate Clerk of Courts equipment in split vote
Summary
The board approved a $1,493.04 quote from Current Electric to move a 'black box' and mount TVs for the Clerk of Courts despite two supervisors voting against the motion; a board member asked whether the State might cover the cost, but Clerk of Courts staff said county protocol is to ask the county first and she did not know if the State would pay.
Teresa Wendelsdorf and Angie Klaassen of the Clerk of Courts office requested the county hire an electrician to move a black box to the passageway and mount courtroom/office TVs. Current Electric provided a written quote of $1,493.04. Supervisor Mike Schulte moved to approve having Current Electric perform the work; Supervisor Jeff Loring seconded. The board approved the work with Ayes from Schulte, Loring and DeBoer and Nays from Vande Hoef and Helmers; the minutes record the motion as carried.
Supervisor Jayson Vande Hoef asked whether the State would consider covering the cost because the equipment was state-owned; Wendelsdorf responded that protocol is to ask the County first and that she did not know whether the State would pay. The minutes do not record any follow-up action to seek State reimbursement.
