in the Planning Budget for part-time help to hire someone to
put up the signs in order to get the project completed earlier.
Commissioner Mills asked about the possibility of bidding the
project of putting up the signs.
After a discussion, it was the consensus that the Planning

OLD COURTHOUSE RENOVATION: A letter had been received from
James Walker of the Arts Council concerning placing stairs on
the outside of the old courthouse to make the upstairs courtroom
accessible for small groups who wished to meet there.
The County Manager referred to an inspections report by Gene
Krider which was on file in the manager's office. The inspection
report recommended the facility should be used on a limited basis
with no large audiences using the auditorium. Mr. Krider also
reported that the center truss was in need of repair in order for
the courtroom to be safe for large groups, and he stated that these
repairs would be expensive and difficult. The County Manager
said he would like to do more research on the repair before the
Board considered using the upstairs.
