NEW AND OLD BUSINESS:
SEH Report on Study Progress - Tobin gave a short introduction to the buildings review efforts since the last meeting
and turned it over to Dave Simons. He noted Simons has been visiting work sites and reviewing past studies. Simons
sketched some basic facilities questions focusing on the Committee's impressions and issues with the County s buildings.
He reviewed what he learned attending the health center session held in New Richmond July 29 and 30. Wentz mentioned
concerns with the nursing home entrance. Johnson reviewed the continuum of services and building layout. Tobin
addressed right - sizing building layout to needs and addressing security issues at the current health center facility. The
property surrounding the health center and HHS building was discussed relative to utilities, a water tower and development
issues. Wentz excused herself for an appointment at 11:30 a.m. Simons spoke to new services discussed at the July health
center meetings and the upfront investment to redesign for those services.
The group discussed the Government Center building and grounds. Rebholz mentioned the option of looking at a detox
component within the Huber addition. Tobin spoke to the amount of dead storage in the building, including within
offices. Whiting mentioned the option of centralizing records like HHS does. There was some discussion about whether
there is a correlation between County population, County staffing needs and building options. The consensus was that the
most apparent need is addressing HHS building issues. There was discussion about the use of County property around the
Government Center and options or limitations the County has on its surrounding property.
1. Items for September Agenda -Dave Simons will continue on phase one and will report again on September 9th.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 12:38 p.m.
