A' THIS. HE FELT THE BUILDING ITSELF IS STRUCTURALLY USABLE WITH SOME REPAIR WORK, BUT THE ROOF IS IN FAIRLY BAD SHAPE, THOUGH NOT'ANYTHING UNUSUAL FOR A BUILDING OF THIS AGE, MR. BALDWIN NOTED THAT FROM A CURSORY OBSERVATION,THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS VERY ADEQUATE. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED IF IT MIGHT NOT BE TOO ADEQUATE, AND MR. BALDWIN AGREED THAT THERE IS MORE THAN NEEDED. MR. BALDWIN CONTINUED THAT, IN REGARD TO THE AIR CONDITIONING, THERE IS TOO MUCH WHICH IS WORSE THAN NOT HAVING ENOUGH, AND IN THE EARLY STAGES OF THE PROJECT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE AIR CONDITIONING LOAD WOULD BE RELATIVE TO EFFICIENCY. HE NOTED THAT ADDITIONAL INSULATION PROBABLY WILL HAVE TO BE INSTALLED, AND THERE ARE A LOT OF PIPES RUNNING ALL OVER THE ROOF, MANY OF WHICH COULD BE ELIMINATED, WHICH WOULD DO AWAY WITH POTENTIAL LEAKS. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED IF THEY WOULD FIRST STUDY THE BUILDING TO DETERMINE WHAT HAS TO BE DONE AND THEN CONDUCT A SPACE NEEDS STUDY. MR. BALDWIN STATED THEY WOULD DO THE SPACE NEEDS STUDY FIRST. COMMISSIONER Loy INQUIRED ABOUT THE TIME NEEDED FOR SUCH A STUDY, AND MR. BALDWIN ESTIMATED A MONTH AND A HALF OR SLIGHTLY LONGER, DEPENDING ON THE COOPERATION OF THE COUNTY STAFF. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT ASKED IF IT WOULD BE THEIR IDEA TO SUBMIT TO THE BOARD A RECOMMENDATION OF WHO SHOULD MOVE TO THE FACILITY AND WHO SHOULD STAY. MR. BALDWIN NOTED THAT HE IS FAMILIAR WITH THE WAY THE SCHOOL BOARD OPERATES AND KNOWS THEY NEED A LARGE SPACE.TO CONDUCT MEETINGS, AND THE LAUNDRY OR CAFETERIA COULD BE.READILY ADAPTED TO THAT TYPE USE. AS TO WHO GOES AND WHO STAYS, HE FELT THAT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO SAY, CHAIRMAN WODTKE INQUIRED AFTER COMPLETION OF THE NEEDS ASSESS- MENT STUDY, HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE THEM TO COME BACK WITH A RECOMMENDA- TION FOR IMPLEMENTATION. MR. BALDWIN FELT IT WOULD TAKE ANOTHER THREE WEEKS OR SO. 8 DO 36 FADE 464 OCT 91978
