3.        Jail Generator
Chris Dewey, Fire Chief, joined the meeting.  Mr. Dewey gave an account of the problem in the jail last weekend.  The power was out on Friday for a number of hours.  The generator in the jail picked up the lights but does not power the air handling system.  The temperature in the jail was above 100 degrees.
Discussion took place regarding whether to install a temporary generator vs. installing a permanent unit.
Ms. Sexton indicated the dollars are available in the capital outlay fund to replace the current generator.
Peter Garwood, Coordinator/Planner, indicated that the two choices are simply contracting with a generator supplier to install a generator on an emergency basis or having an electrical engineer draft specifications and go through the bid policy.
The Committee had a speakerphone call with Jason VanBrocklin from Nealis Engineering.
Motion by Larry Bargy, supported by Gene Dawson, to select D and R Electric as the contractor and Bridgeway Generator as the generator supplier, and get a diesel generator installed on an emergency basis.  Motion carried – unanimous.
Meeting adjourned at 9:55 a.m.
