Discussion ensued on costs involved in experimenting with a piece of carpet in the Welfare Building and how this carpet could be salvaged after experimentation. Commissioner Wodtke felt this could be handled by including in the bid specifications that a piece will be supplied for experimental purposes, and if this piece proved to be satisfactory, he felt it could be utilized later in the reception room of the Judge's Chambers. After further discussion, Commissioners Fletcher and Lyons agreed to modify their Motion to have a trial installation of the certified carpet and non -allergenic pad 4 in the Judge's -office at the.Welfare Building; the, same carpet to be moved to the Courthouse in the event it does not cause any reactions. Commissioner Fletcher suggested beginning to install the certified carpet at the Courthouse in Judge Stikelether's chambers first, but Chairman Scurlock pointed out that the Judge then would not have isolated ingress and egress to his office. Discussion continued at length in regard to the method to be used to remove the glue from the_jury box, i.e., by sanding, solvent, etc., and Mr. Williams stated that his crew' will get rid of the glue one way or the other, but if they have to remove the floor, it will be an extensive project. He personally felt we should remove the wood, but this would necessitate taking apart the whole structure. He did not feel the Judge would be satisfied with sanding. Chairman Scurlock summarized the Motion on the floor, which was to go through the bid process for the entire area, put a piece of carpet and pad in the Judge's present office in the Welfare Building to determine his reaction to it; if it is satisfactory, then put it in the courtroom with limited access to see how that works out. 31 Box 49 PnE 385 APR 141982
