Tape recorded on Reel N77-23. SUPERVISORS PRESENT: Donnelley, Sehr, Cilek. COUNCILMEMBERS PRESENT: deProsse, Selzer, Neuhauser, Balmer (10:10 A.M.). STAFFMEMBERS PRESENT: Asst. Jo. Co. Attorney Pat White; City Manager Neal Berlin, City Clerk Abbie Stolfus; Chamber of Commerce, Keith Kafer. ' The previous agreement for payment of maintenance costs on a square footage basis by the City was discussed, along with payment of architects .:fees: -.There was a consensus that a high-level committee be established to, put together a proposed agreement in memorandum form that sets down *, In black and white how both agencies intend to share costs. The limits of the bond issue to be considered are 2k, million dollars. The committee named included Supervisor Don Sehr, Councilwoman Carol deProsse, City Manager Neal Berlin, Chief of Police Harvey Miller and Sheriff Gary Hughes. The City Manager will act as Interim Chairman and call the committee together. Their decision will be given within one month. N Architect Roland Wehner outlined the new proposal for a jail and sheriff's quarters on the existing site on the southwest quarter of the Courthouse ':..; block. Capitol St. would be the access for govt. vehicles, Harrison St. the access for the public. This structure would cost 1.9 million dollars I f bid next spring. 35,000 square feet is divided into jail, 15,200 sq. ft:; sheriff, 18,000 sq. ft. (of this 8,500 sq. ft. is for parking and storage); and 1,500 sq. ft. would be for the power plant. Observations made included: ' The County did not feel that they had the complete commitment from ' the City for the previous bond issue, until the last day. The City felt it had not been involved in the planning, and the cost to the taxpayers had not been publicized. The sheriff is on record as - saying that he was not sure the City and County personnel could ` work together. There would be problems created because the City Police are paid more than the County Deputies, whose salaries are :. ` set by State Law, One Councilmember and police personnel worked against the previous bond issue. Decision is needed for what is the long run is in the best interests of all the citizens of Johnson County. A coordinated law enforcement program could be used in the area of records, communications and jail facilities. Wehner stated that the scheme presented could be modified to include joint facilities. It is the responsibility of the Board of Supervisors and the City Council to come to the best _ -, decision administratively as they can. Some citizens have suggested that this would be a step toward County government, others said it was a step for City control.
