For the courthouse project, the board approved pay application No. 19 for $277,173.67. For the Secondary Roads addition and garage, officials presented pay application No. 24 for a partial retainage release (the amount is garbled in the transcript) and a proposed deductive change order reducing the contract by $19,239; the transcript does not clearly capture the votes. The board also approved Turner’s pay application No. 20 for the Evidence Storage and Firing Range project, but the amount is garbled in the transcript.

The board approved an EMA space-needs request to convert an upstairs room into a shared teleconferencing room using a project-specific grant; equipment will include televisions and a videoconferencing bar, with the work done in-house. Officials also reported two recommended opioid-settlement applications for fire/rescue/EMS equipment, including AEDs and a LUCAS system, but no approval vote is captured.
