County Commission 3/22/20012

County Commission March 22, 2012

Commissioners McCulloh and Johnson present.

The agenda today was very light.

After the usual minutes, tentative agenda and accounts payable, etc., Pat Collins, Emergency Management Director, discussed the funding of the maintenance costs with Ft. Riley for a new flood gauge installed by the USGS near Keats. This will join the other two gauges which are at Scenic Drive and Seth Child Road. This is part of the effort to address proactively the flooding issues that were seen during last summer’s flood. The cost is estimated at $6,000, and Ft. Riley asked the county to fund half the cost. The money will come from the Emergency Management portion of the general fund.

Johnette Shepek presented the update on CIP, County Building fund, and the Economic Development ½ Cent sales tax funds.

Roberet Nall, Information Technology Director, gave an update of his department’s activities. They continue to be busy with connections for the Health Department.

The Health Department director’s draft of the responsibilities of the Health Advisory Board was discussed but not finalized.

Julie Merklin, observer
