Brown. ::Jia~hrev, IfAWber, ::Jefferson COlmt:v CentAnnial eo..ittee re: CIumaes to COlmt:v Flag: Mr. Humphrey explained that the Centennial Committee would like to purchase another 25 county flags, but feel that some changes are needed (the material it is made of, the stitching, etc.) before the order is placed. Mr. Humphrey talked, to puget Sound Tent (who the State has endorsed to make County flags) and to High Flying, the people that made the original flag. The original flag was made with a silk screen design which was two sided. This is not th~recommended procedure because the paint and the extra material add to the weight of the flag. Flags are normally made with just one side, Mr. Humphrey explained, because if it is hung in a building it is hung to the right and if it is hung on a pole no one can tell that it is one sided. The Centennial Committee recommends that the County flag be made one-sided, and that it be a dyed flag. Mr. Humphrey asked.. the Board; 1} what is the procedure for making a change in the County flag and 2} what happens after the Centennial, as far as who will be responsible for maintaining a supply of these flags for interested parties to purchase? puget Sound Tent has submitted a proposal to provide the dyed flags at a cost of $63.65 each after the first order. They require a minimum order of 12 flags per year. . It was a consensus of the Board that the County flag be ordered in the future as a one-sided, dyed flag as recommended by.the Centennial Committee. The procedure for providing and maintaining the county flags after the Centennial will be decided at a later date.

'the IIultl-servicee Bui1diDa: public Works Property Manager, Carter Breskin, reported that she has developed a revised parking lot plan with the help of Traffic Engineer, Scott Kilmer, for the Multi-Services Building. This plan would redesign the parking in front of the building. The parking in the treed area in front of, and adjacent to the Hospital is for employees. There are currently 24 parking spaces with three handicapped spaces in the lot in front of the building. This plan would reduce the number of handicapped spaces to two. .F0ur more "Visitor only" signs would be placed on parking spaces near the entrance to the building. The parking lot would be re-stripped. Parking will be restricted at the entrance of the building which will eliminate confusion and increase the sight distance. This would be a temporary solution which would clearly indicate that this parking lot is for visitors, not employees, Gary Rowe added. Commissioner Dennison suggested that the employees of each department be advised by the Department Head that the parking lot in front of the building is for visitors. 8m OPD.llft:i re: StriDiDaof Various county Roads 1988: Gary Rowe opened and read the bids for the striping of various county roads for 1988 as follows: PLAN HOLDERS: BID TOTAL: Kaspac corporation, Seattle Apply-A-Line, Maple Valley Select Contractors, Federal Way Rockey's Road Striping, Elma $72,494.35 68,253.88 91,682.83 62,503.50 Engineer's Estimate 69,204.80 Commissioner Dennison moved to direct the Public Works Department to check the bids for accuracy and make a recommendation for bid award.

The criteria for the six year transportation improvement program were discussed as well as the status of the county's bridges and the bridge inspection program, the county's road maintenance budget and how it is developed, and the future of timber revenues. Repairs to WiDd.ows in the ::Jefferson Co1m1:V ::Jail: Carter Breskin and Sheriff Mel Mefford came before the Board to discuss the need for repairing the windows in the Jail as soon as possible. Mel Mefford reported that over the next few days State prisoners, including two of the prisoners who previously escaped from the jail through the windows, will have to be housed in the jail causing overcrowding problems.
