Summary
Commissioners confirmed a structural evaluation of the Daniels County courthouse scheduled for April 29 and discussed courthouse maintenance, potential insulating of a south wall, space reallocation for county offices and a proposed one‑year lease amendment with six months’ notice for a tenant who asked for stability while repairs proceed.
County officials confirmed a structural evaluation of the courthouse will take place April 29; commissioners asked to be informed of the inspector’s findings and to attend. The board discussed building maintenance and insulating a south wall as well as ongoing electrical/heating problems that affect tenant operations.
A tenant (Judge/landlord conversation) and commissioners negotiated short‑term lease terms: a one‑year lease with six months’ notice and a $500 monthly rent plus utilities (MDU) was proposed to give the tenant continuity while the county develops long‑term infrastructure and security plans. Commissioners agreed to draft an amended lease and to consult other counties about potential shared courthouse functions or cost‑sharing.
