Maintenance requests include half-time position and boiler replacements
Summary
Maintenance presented capital priorities including parking lot chip seal, sidewalk repairs, water table stone work and replacement of aging boilers and a 23-year-old lawnmower; the department requested a half-time position and noted rising costs that may require fund balance use.
Craig Parks presented the maintenance department's 2027 regular and capital-improvement budget requests, highlighting a proposed half-time position to support operations and a list of capital priorities.
Parks listed priorities including parking lot chip seal and striping, sidewalk repairs to address tripping hazards, water table stone repairs in the 1997 courthouse addition, and replacement of aging boilers with higher-efficiency primary units (existing units to provide backup). He also recommended replacing a 23-year-old lawnmower to improve efficiency. Committee members discussed cost estimates, funding sources and the possible use of fund balances or reserves for major expenditures in light of rising prices.
No final action was recorded on specific capital projects at the meeting; Parks asked the committee to consider prioritizing projects so staff can schedule work and solicit quotes.
