Brown, Chairman Carroll M. Mercer, Member Clerk of the Board: Engineer: Jerdine C. Bragg Milt Sanstrom, r.E. M 1 NUT E S Week of October 12, 1981 At 10:00 a.m., the meeting was called to order by Chairman B.G. Brown, with all members present. Mumby Road, Marrowstone Island: James Caldwell appeared before the Board to present a petition tor improvement of this road and to discuss the reasons for the petition. Chairman Brown explained that this road was acquired by the County by useage, thereby giving no right-of-way to the County. The County can only work on the road it- self, which the County maintains. Right-of-way acquisition would be necessary for the County to make any improvements since such improve- ments would necessitate bringing the road up to standard, requiring right-of-way. Mr. Caldwell indicated that the property owners would probably be willing to grant easements for right-of-way. Chairman Brown stated that the most feasible way of making improvements would probably be to form a road improvement district. The Engineer will check the Six Year Road Program, do an estimate of the cost of improv- ing this road, and do a traffic count before making a recommendation. Courthouse Boiler and Hot Water Heater: Pat Whiteman met with the Board to report that he is working with Ken Brown in an attempt to avoid buying a new hot water heater by replacing the elements. The water heater is not heating the water hot enough. Mr. Whiteman also requested authorization to change the method of treating the boiler. Cost for implementing this method would be approximately $SOO, but results would be superior to the current method and yearly costs would be minimal. The current method costs $200-$300 per year and is less satisfactory. The Board asked Mr. Whiteman to investigate this proposed method further with the Department of Labor and Industries, Boiler Inspection Division, and with Chimacum and Forks schools, which currently use this method, and report back to the Board. In response to Chairman Brown's inquiry, Mr. Whiteman indicated that a similar modification on the boiler at the Recreation Center would provide additional longrange savings for the same initial investment.

Architects' Report, Jail Site: Architects Dave and Jim Johnston presented 6 copies ot their comparative report on the three sites prioritized by the Site Selection and Technical Committees. Also in attendance at this meeting were Mike Kenna and Brent Shirley for the City, Ralph Hall for the Selection Committees, and Lee Smith and David Goldsmith. Dave Johnston summarized the methods and con- siderations in preparing the report, as well as the contents of the report. In summary, the architects do not recommend the site behind the courthouse at all, due to the many problems and extremely high cost. It is their opinion that, although the site in front of the courthouse is feasible, the Hadlock site is superior. However, Mr. Johnston noted that their evaluation did not include any demographic, manpower, fuel or operational cost analyses, which bear consideration on the three sites. Mr. Smith indicated that these figures are being compiled now. General discussion followed Mr. Johnston's report, and the City representatives requested and received 5 copies of the report for further study. Change Orders for Tri-Area Community Center Addition: Dave Johnston requested approval of 7 changes in this work. Following discussion, the Board denied the request to move the hallway door, but approved a credit based on the drain tile selection, upgrading office window to wire glass, adding a night timer to the existing heater, framing around the locker room duct work, credit for deleting concrete step, and addition of exit signs, range and convenience outlets, by motion of Commissioner O'Meara, seconded by Commissioner Mercer.
