Mike and Kurt briefed the committee on plans for a backup generator at a downtown county warehouse. Kurt said he has a meeting scheduled to coordinate bench and electrical drawings and that the county will present those materials to the mayor and Tammy once prepared. “I've got a meeting this afternoon, with him on bench drawings so we can get that put together with the electrical drawings and present it to the mayor and Tammy,” Mike said.
Committee members asked whether the historical society must review the project; Kurt said that remains a possibility and staff will determine whether historical‑society review is required. The group discussed sequencing for conduit and transformer work to ensure cost‑effective installation should the county proceed with a generator and associated transformer placement. Staff will continue drawings and return with a timeline to the city and mayor's office.
