The Cass County Board of Supervisors will hold their regular meeting in Atlantic Wednesday morning. During their 9-a.m. session at the courthouse, the Board will act on approving a two-percent Cost Of Living increase for Child Support Recovery employees, as covered under the Intergovernmental Cooperative Reimbursement Agreement between the County and Department of Human Services.
The Supervisors are also expected to act on funding for the Cass-Audubon Border Economic Development Agreement (CABEDA), and paying for a Valley Business Park property loan. They’ll also receive and possibly act on bids for sanitation and recycling services at the courthouse and jail, as well as approve the hiring of an Operator 1 position applicant for the Secondary Roads Department.
Members of the CAM School District’s Board of Education, Monday, approved a change order for the new multipurpose building to be constructed this Summer north of the CAM North Elementary School. Superintendent Steve Pelzer told KJAN News the change makes the building a little bit wider and changes the slope of the roof. It also adds $20,000 to price of the original bid of $584,800, from Jensen Builders, of Ames. When complete, the building will house a gym with storage areas, restrooms, drinking fountain and music room. The building is expected to be finished by mid-to late-August.
The Board also discussed, but took no action on, replacing the football scoreboard with an LED-type board. Pelzer says the Board will likely approve replacing the current scoreboard with a new one, because it’s cheaper to replace it than to retrofit the current scoreboard with LED lights. He says they are also looking into the purchase of Play Clocks for the end zone, but no decision was made on that, either.
