Summary

The committee approved Fleet Services roof repair, accepted insurance coverage of $85,000 for the County Office Building west roof, approved re-appropriation for incomplete 2025 building projects, and selected a landscaping bid revised to $6,902.

County officials reported facility repairs and funding reallocations at the April 14 meeting and the committee approved multiple related actions.

County Administrator Jim Grafton reported wind‑storm damage to the County Office Building west roof and said "our insurance company is covering $85,000 toward the replacement of the roof." The committee approved a roof repair for Fleet Services (motion by Kai Swanson; second by Edna Sowards) and approved re-appropriation of unspent FY2025 funds to complete two Sheriff’s Office projects (windows and waterproofing) that were not finished in 2025, as Captain Mindy Meyers explained.

For landscaping, Grafton reviewed four bids and said the new low number from Curb Appeal was $6,902 after removing higher‑cost features; the committee approved the landscaping project. The motions carried by voice vote and staff were directed to proceed with procurement and scheduling.
