He <br />recommended that a resolution be drawn up regarding this. The <br />board requested that Jerry prepare a resolution for next week. <br /> <br />APPROVE SPECS FOR TOWER: Janulewicz stated he reviewed the specs <br />regarding the bidding process and they are in proper form. This <br />is for a 20 ft masonry building and the bids will be opened <br />September 2, 1997, 10:00 a.m. Vic Aufdemberge, with Aufdemberge <br />Architecture, 403 East First, answered questions on the structure <br />and left a copy of the plans for the board to review. The <br />materials used for the construction will be low maintenance and <br />the roof has double the structural requirements.

If the elected and appointed officials make the <br />commitment to go along with the increases the board will <br />guarantee the insurance will remain the same. Discussion was <br />held on the salaries of the deputies and the board stated they <br />will do a survey later concerning this. Abernethy stated that <br />NACO will be doing a salary survey for the elected officials <br />this fall. Stelk stated the appointed officials should be added <br />to this resolution concerning the merit increases. Stelk made a <br />motion and Abernethy seconded to approve resolution #97-0057 and <br />to add the appointed officials to the resolution. Quandt stated <br />that the appointed officials should be included in the resolution, <br />but he felt that this was premature because the union <br />negotiations have not been settled and everyone should be <br />treated the same. This resolution was intended as a show of good <br />faith on the part of the County Board. Hartman suggested making <br />three separate resolutions. Stelk suggested to add the appointed <br />officials 3% increases for this budget year only to the <br />resolution. Landis called for the question. Abernethy, Hartman, <br />Lancaster, Landis, Long and Stelk all voted yes and Quandt voted <br />no. Motion carried. <br /> <br />/ <br />
