Commissioners approve spray-foam upgrade and up to $20,000 in county funds for Citizens Collection Station building
Summary
After debate about insulation types, the court approved the grant-funded metal building and authorized up to $20,000 from Fund 55 to add spray-foam insulation beyond the grant amount, citing longer-term durability and temperature control.
The county presented three quotes for a grant-funded metal building at the Citizens Collection Station and discussed insulation options. Staff said the grant award fell short of the total project cost for a spray-foam upgrade.
Commissioner Wilson argued spray foam would provide better long-term performance, saying "spray foam will make a significant difference in the temperature control in that environment." Commissioners agreed and authorized awarding the contract to the recommended bidder with an additional not-to-exceed $20,000 from Fund 55 to cover spray-foam insulation above the grant portion.
The court directed staff to finalize contract documents and file the grant reimbursement paperwork; the motion passed unanimously. Staff noted roll-insulation could be added later but that spray foam was preferred for long-term durability and worker comfort.
