This Thursday (6:30 p.m.) is the public meeting in the Tri Area regarding the im- provement project for Irondale Road. Discussion re: Recommendation to A ward Contract to Drill and Test a Water Well in Quilcene: Deputy Director of Public Services, David Goldsmith, reported that the bid for drilling a well in Quilcene is between $15,000 and $20,000. The grant for this project is for a total of $25,000. $11,000 of that grant funding has already been spent. The Public Works Department has been keeping track of their time for this project so the road fund can be reimbursed at some point. The testing portion of this contract is required to assure that a Class "A" water system can be done, It does not appear that there will be enough funding to do that work. David Goldsmith reported that the suggestion has been made that any additional funding needed, be taken from the Community Services Fund. There isn't any budget for this and it would have to come from the reserve balance in that fund, David Goldsmith stated that the Federal government might be willing to extend the grant. Dave Johnson, D,S, Forest Service, has been contacted regarding grant funding to develop the well. The discussion continued regarding the water needs of the public entities in the area including the school, the County's Community Center and park, and the D. S. Forest Service offices, The development of a community well and the need for more public participation into that process was also discussed. Commissioner Huntingford noted that he feels the County needs to finish the well project, and then the community needs to be more involved if the well is to become a community well. David Goldsmith reported that the Community Services Fund can be used to pay for any additional hard costs such as well drilling, A decision will be made later on how to reimburse Public Works for other types of costs. Commissioner Huntingford moved to award the well drilling contract to Stoican Well Drilling. Commissioner Hinton seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote, The Board met in an executive session to discuss a personnel matter with David Goldsmith and Judge William Howard. The meeting was recessed at the end of the business day and reconvened on Tuesday morning after the Management Team meeting, CONTRACT re: Burner Replacement and Upgrade for Courthouse Boiler: Cole Industries: Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve the contract with Cole Industries for upgrade and replacement of the burner for the Courthouse boiler as presented.
