All Members present voted yea. Motion carried unanimously. COMMUNICATIONS AND REFERRALS Employee Service Awards for September 2010 were acknowledged by Chairman Tobias. Chairman Tobias read a letter from the Public Building Commission regarding Bob Hutcheson’s years of service to the Public Building Commission. The text of the letter is as follows: On August 24, 2010, the Public Building Commission held its first meeting since the retirement of Commission Member Bob Hutcheson. Bob diligently served on the Commission since January 16, 1991, the entire 19+ years as Chairman. During those years, Bob oversaw the construction of four new County buildings: the Health Facility, the Highway Department Building, the Legislative Center, and the Community Outreach Building. Three out of four of those buildings have no mortgage payments as they were completed without going to the bond market for funds. 119 In addition to the major construction projects, Bob was involved with a variety of projects which preserved the usefulness of existing buildings and made them more efficient, both for employees and to reduce operating costs. The first project was the addition of the heavily-used Conference Room East in 1994 and the list goes on from there. Some of those projects include the Sheriff’s E-911 Center, Administration Building office reconfiguration, the establishment of the “Situation Room” in the Public Safety Building, secure climate-controlled records storage, roofs and HVAC system replacements, and the opening of several parking lots. Numerous minor projects have been completed over those years. The purpose of this letter is to publicly thank Mr. Hutcheson for the untold hours he donated to the success of these projects. They were complex projects that benefited from his leadership and determination to make them happen. While small next to the accomplishments Bob has achieved, the Commission is planning a fitting tribute (perhaps a tree or park bench along the walking paths of the Health Facility campus) to acknowledge the service he has given to the citizens of DeKalb County. In addition, we would ask that the Chairman place this letter into the public record by incorporating it into your official meeting minutes. APPOINTMENTS Chairman Tobias recommended the following appointment: Search Committee for the County Engineer – Gary Hanson, Ruth Anne Tobias, Larry Anderson, Jerry Augsburger and John Emerson all appointed for a term of one year, until September 30, 2011. Motion to Add a Member Ms. LaVigne moved to add DeKalb Township Road Commissioner, John Huber, as a Member of the Search Committee for the County Engineer for a term of one year, until September 30, 2011. Larry Anderson seconded the motion. Voice Vote Chairman Tobias called for a voice vote on the appointments for the Search Committee for the County Engineer including the added Member.
