MAY 14 1991 Roos 8 3 PACE 3433 <br />Chairman Bird suggested that, if the Board desired, we could <br />just separate out the Interior Design aspect, and Commissioner <br />Eggert preferred that be done as she felt because of the <br />community participation, we should investigate the interior <br />design aspect further. <br />COMMISSIONERS SCURLOCK AND BOWMAN WITHDREW THEIR EARLIER <br />MOTION. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, to approve the contract with <br />Pierce, Goodwin, Alexander, and Linville, with the <br />exclusion of Interior Design, and expect that part <br />to be brought back to the Board in a two week period <br />with a specific delineation of what it is that they <br />are going to do. <br />Director Dean advised that there are two representatives of <br />the architects here if the Board has any questions. <br />Gene Aubrey of Pierce, Goodwin, Alexander and Linville, <br />wished to stress that interior design really has to go hand in <br />hand as you design the -building, and there is a -lot more to it <br />than looking in a catalogue and picking out furniture and colors. <br />He emphasized that there will be a lot of computerization in this <br />building; the lighting has to be very carefully designed in the <br />courtrooms. All that is part of the interior design services, <br />and all this has to be coordinated by the interior design person <br />as the construction moves ahead. It is not just a decorating <br />service; it is a very highly technical thing. <br />Commissioner Eggert believed everyone understood all that, <br />especially after just having constructed two libraries, but noted <br />the fact remains that we do have a community situation that <br />should be looked at before we move forward. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt the point is that their overall <br />design will be affected by the other. It is.n.ice to have people <br />volunteer, but he felt it is a distinct advantage to have one <br />firm do the job. <br />Commissioner Eggert appreciated that, but just felt we owe <br />it to the community to investigate this. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />SAID CONTRACT EXCLUDING INTERIOR DESIGN IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE <br />OF CLERK TO THE BOARD. <br />42 <br />
