DEED
Gordy Swanson, Deputy State's Attorney, reported that in April 2008, the commission approved an action transferring Metro Communications' capital assets and inventory to Metro Communications Agency. A 1-acre tower site near Baltic was not included in that action. He presented a quitclaim deed to complete the transfer of this property, legally described as Tract 1 of Minnehaha County Tower Addition in the SE1/4, Section 35-T104N-R50W. Metro Communications Agency is insuring the property and improvements. Any maintenance to the site performed by County staff may be billed to the agency. Mr. Swanson will notify Metro Council of the transfer. MOTION by Twedt, seconded by Barth to authorize the Vice-Chairman to sign the Quitclaim Deed. 4 ayes.
PROPOSAL
Lloyd Olson, Facilities Director, reported that he had solicited 3 proposals for an energy audit. The audit is necessary to be eligible for a direct formula grant in the amount of $129,300 from the Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Grant program. Mr. Olson received only one proposal in the amount of $5,000 from Mckinstry. For the fee, Mckinstry will perform the energy audit and prepare the grant application on the County's behalf. Mr. Olson identified two potential projects. Mckinstry will help identify which project will be most beneficial. Ken McFarland, Commission Administrative Officer, explained the grant details and deadlines. MOTION by Kelly, seconded by Barth to accept the proposal from Mckinstry and authorize the Vice-Chairman to sign the Technical Energy Audit Report/Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Application. 4 ayes.
HEARING
Valerie Lietz with the Siouxland Renaissance Association was present for the scheduled hearing to consider an application for a Special On-sale Wine Retailers and Special Off-sale Package Wine Dealers License for the Renaissance Festival to be held at the W.H. Lyon Fairgrounds on June 6 & 7, 2009. Commissioners were informed that a change in alcohol laws in 2008 now makes the off-sale license available to civic, charitable, educational, fraternal organizations, and fair boards and is limited to SD farm winery wines. The fee for such license is to be set by the governing board, not to exceed $50 per day. No one spoke in opposition to the license. Commissioner Twedt supported charging a lesser fee. MOTION by Kelly, seconded by Barth to set the off-sale special wine license rate at $50 per day and approve the Special On-sale Wine Retailers and Off-sale Wine Dealers Licenses for the Siouxland Renaissance Association. 3 ayes, Twedt nay.
MOTION by Barth, seconded by Twedt to adjourn into Executive Session. 4 ayes. Following the Executive Session, the Commission adjourned until 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 2, 2009.
