Mr. Bateman called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm.

A motion was made by Mr. Hepler, seconded by Mrs. Schumacher, to approve the minutes from the August 4, 2015 meeting. Motion passed.

Old Business:

1. Salary Reimbursement and Office Renovation – Kim Turner’s Office:
Mr. Bateman will contact her to see if there is any new information.

2. Military Veteran’s Information Center: Nothing to report.

3. Floor Plan/Furniture at the Assessor’s Office: Nothing to report.

4. Electricity work in band shelter at Latham Park: Mr. Bateman will check in with Dave about the progress.

5. Ptac Unit in Sally Turner’s Office: Sally has 2 in and operating; Vicki has 3 in and operating; Jon Wright’s office is still waiting.

6. Animal Control Roof: Henson Robinson looked at the roof and the gutters are all bad, also. The bid for all new gutters and roof is $35,000. Mr. Bateman discussed asking for bids and Mr. Ruben discussed concerns about being too over-budget to work on the roof this fiscal year.

New Business:

1. On-Site Paper Shredding Proposal

Mr. Bateman would like to know the cost for the largest bin that can fit into the Courthouse elevator in an effort to save money on per-bin charges. The County will advertise for bids with specifications for paper only shredding and multiple size, lockable bins.

a. Mike Kirlin: COPS Paper Shredding: The last several years a rear-loading recycling truck from the Decatur plant has come to Lincoln to pick up non-confidential office paper. There are 6 bins at the Courthouse. COPS currently does not charge the County for the service. However, the company is going to stop offering rear-loading truck services and instead begin the on-site shredding program. This will give the opportunity for both confidential and non-confidential shredding done on site and the County will have lockable bins. The charge will be a per- service charge for each bin. Dumps can be pre-scheduled.

b. Heather Fitzanko: AAA Confidential Security: Confidential Security is currently serving the Logan County State’s Attorney. The company is a local, family-owned company that shreds and recycles both confidential and non-confidential information. They destroy micro-media, paper, cds, and hard drives. They are plant based, so everything is removed to the plant instead of on site. The price can also be calculated per-service for each bin.

2. Alliance Arts in the Park 2016 Liquor Permit for Latham Park: Guest did not attend. Mr. Bateman has concerns that he would like to discuss with the Alliance next month if an Alliance representative attends. Mr. Bateman detailed the following concerns: has the City of Lincoln awarded an alcohol permit? Has the issue of alcohol proximity to a church/school been resolved? Has the date, which coincides with the Emden Homecoming, been discussed with other towns? Are they still planning to fence in the playground? Mr. Bateman hopes to have answers by next month’s meeting.

3. LC Board office desk: Tabled until next month. Mr. Ruben would like to bring the filing cabinets from the Assessor’s office to the LCB office.

4. Good Energy: Guest did not attend. No discussion.

5. EPA Notice: Informational. No action required.

Requests:

Family Bounce Day – Scully Park – October 11 – A motion was made by Mr. Hepler, seconded by Mrs. Schumacher, to approve this request. Motion passed.

Report from Dennis Reves: The problem with the fountain is that the water is running inside the fountain, blowing out all the motor, instead of on the outside. The estimate is $2,400 or less. It would have to be taken completely apart. Mr. Bateman would like to take it all the way out and fix it from the bottom up.
