Board discusses roof replacement for Public Health building and orders berm to screen Public Works site
Summary
The Board discussed a proposed roof replacement for the Des Moines Valley Health and Human Services Public Health building (no action taken) and instructed Public Works to construct a berm to screen piles visible from neighboring properties.
Cottonwood County officials discussed facilities issues July 15, including a roof replacement for the Des Moines Valley Health and Human Services (DVHHS) Public Health building and complaints about visible piles at the Public Works site.
Kris Kanak (Garland) and Mark Schenk, Building Operations Manager, presented the roof replacement discussion for the DVHHS Public Health building on 9th Street; the Board took no action. Separately, Commissioner Kevin Stevens said residents west of the Public Works Building had complained about piles visible from backyards; the Board asked Public Works to build a berm to block the view (consensus).
Why it matters: the roof discussion concerns county-owned public-health facilities and potential capital work; the berm direction responds to neighbor complaints about site appearance and may require Public Works resources to design and construct.
