      Moved by Johnson, seconded by Allen to approve the agreement with Northwest Iowa Planning and Development Commission for services to implement the workplace safety and compliance program, known as SHIELD.  All present voted aye.

 

      Discussed was a letter received from the Kelley Beach, Twin Hill and Moore Lake Association concerning dogs on the loose in the area.  The Association is requesting that the County adopt a Dog Leash Law for residential housing in a rural setting when houses are within a certain number of feet apart and that the sheriff could enforce the ordinance.  Assistant Attorney Saunders handed out a sample ordinance used in another Iowa county for the board to review.  This issue will be discussed more in upcoming meetings.

 

      Emil Lemke, and representative from Engineering Design Associates present to discuss the mechanical and electrical systems study for Oak Haven Care Facility that was filed with the Auditor on April 6, 2006.  The recommendations of the report are to replace the current boilers at an estimated cost of $112,500 as well as HVAC replacement at an estimated cost of $269,500 and various other modifications at an estimated cost of $34,950 for a project total of $416,950.  The Board discussed that not that much had been budgeted for repairs at the facility.  The condition of the boilers indicates that they need to be replaced before the next heating season.  A timeframe for bids; specifications and project completion were discussed.  The Board will consider the entire project as well as mechanical and electrical engineering fees at the next meeting.

 

      County Engineer present.  Moved by Johnson, seconded by Allen to approve an Agreement for Federal-Aid Surface Transportation Program (STP) Project, for Project No.  STP-S-CO30 (34)—5E-30.  This is the Peoria Avenue Reconstruction Project from 15th Street north to M49 with the cities of Orleans and Spirit Lake.  All present voted aye.

 

      Moved by Jordan, seconded by Allen to go into closed session as per Iowa Code Section

      21.5 (i), a grievance filed by an IUOE bargaining unit member.  All present voted aye—Johnson-aye, Jordan-aye, Gottsche-aye and Allen-aye.  Tape recording made of the closed session.  Moved by Allen, seconded by Jordan to return to open session.  All present voted aye—Johnson-aye, Jordan-aye, Gottsche-aye, and Allen-aye.

 

      There being no further business presented before the board, it was moved by Johnson, seconded by Jordan to adjourn.  All present voted aye.
