NOV 19 1980 Boos 45 PAcF 293 MR. KONTOULAS FELT THAT EVIDENTLY THE JUDGES DID NOT REALIZE JUST WHAT THEY WERE LOOKING AT AND POSSIBLY DID NOT STUDY THIS IN ENOUGH DETAIL BEFORE THEY SIGNED OFF ON THE ORIGINAL PLANS. ADMINISTRATOR NELSON NOTED THAT AS MORE WORK CETS DONE, THINGS COME MORE INTO FOCUS AND IT BECOMES MORE AND MORE APPARENT WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. COMMISSIONER BIRD AGAIN ASKED IF IT MAKES SENSE TO ASK FOR A LOCAL BID, AND CHAIRMAN LYONS DID NOT FEEL WE SHOULD CET TWO SETS OF CONTRACTORS WORKING ON THE JOB, WHICH HE FELT WOULD CAUSE NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. MR. KONTOULAS POINTED OUT THAT HERE AGAIN WE ARE LOOKING AT A POSSIBLE EXTENSION OF TIME. DISCUSSION CONTINUED IN REGARD TO PAINTING, DRYWALL, PANEL- ING, ETC., AND MR. KONTOULAS NOTED THAT WE WOULD BE ALLOWED A CREDIT FOR ELIMINATING SOME OF THE PAINTING WHEN WE WENT TO PANELING. COMMISSIONER WODTKE COMMENTED THAT WHAT THE CONTRACTOR WOULD CHARGE FOR PAINTING IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE AMOUNT HE WOULD GIVE CREDIT FOR WHEN ELIMINATING THE PAINTING. COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK EMPHASIZED THAT THE FIGURES ON THE BREAKDOWN SUBMITTED TO THE BOARD DO NOT EVEN ADD UP AND WISHED TO KNOW WHO CHECKS THESE OVER, MR, KONTOULAS STATED THAT -THE ARCHITECT SHOULD CHECK THESE OVER, AND MR. SCURLOCK COMMENTED THAT THIS SAME ARCHITECT APPARENTLY HAS MADE MANY OTHER MISTAKES. MR. KONTOULAS ASKED THE BOARD IF THEY WISHED TO GO WITH THE MATERIAL HE HAS SHOWN THEM AND PANEL IN SOME OF THE AREAS OR ALL OF THE AREAS OR HOW EXACTLY THEY DID WISH TO PROCEED. INTERESTED CITIZEN WILLIAM KOOLAGE NOTED THAT THE JUDGES HAD SIGNED OFF ON THE ORIGINAL PLANS, AND HE WONDERED IF THE QUALITY OF JUSTICE WILL BE BETTER FOR PUTTING IN THE PANELING. ATTORNEY GORDON MOSS ADDRESSED THE BOARD AS A MEMBER OF THE BAR ASSOCIATION AND ALSO AS A TAXPAYER, AS TO THEIR SIGNING OFF ON THE PLANS, HE NOTED THAT WHEN THEY SAW THE PLANS, THEY WERE ADVISED
