Summary

The Security Committee recommended and the board approved removal of prepay on vendor quotes and acceptance of camera estimates totaling about $44,143; Castlerock will install a fence and camera vendors Onsight and Efraimson Electric provided quotes.

The county's Security Committee — Register of Deeds Caryn Hojer, Emergency Manager Kristen Longville and Sheriff Steven Strande — updated commissioners on grant-funded courthouse security improvements on April 9 and requested immediate approval to install cameras. Hojer reported that Castlerock will install a fence around the heating and cooling system.

The committee presented a camera-installation quote from Onsight for $32,004.85 and an estimate from Efraimson Electric for $12,138.00. The board approved proceeding with the camera portion of the project on the condition that the vendors remove any prepay requirement, which County counsel or purchasing rules prohibit. Hojer said she had applied for a separate grant to cover push bars, extended glass and window tinting in the clerk’s office; those items will be addressed later in the grant scope.
