NEW BUSINESS  
Dan Tarwater III, County Legislator, asked Troy Schulte, County  
Administrator, for an update on the new Detention Center construction  
project. Mr. Schulte said the two top candidates were reviewed last week.  
These finalists will be contacted about their pricing information, and they will  
move to the negotiation stage. He said both finalists were excellent and very  
comparable to each other, and the County will not go wrong with either  
choice.  
Jeanie Lauer, County Legislator, said she attended an event this weekend  
related to the fifth anniversary of the Oak Grove tornado. This event is a  
testament to the strength of the community. The residents of Oak Grove  
came together after winds as high as 65 miles per hour and as wide as  
three or four football fields destroyed numerous homes and businesses. Ms.  
Lauer said she wants to recognize the “Oak Grove Strong” movement. It is a  
reminder that anyone’s life can change in a matter of 10 minutes.  
Tony Miller, County Legislator, said he would like to recognize the Parks +  
Rec Department and Administration on the progress to reopening Little Blue  
Trace Trail at Anderson Road. As long as the weather will cooperate, this  
section of trail should reopen within the next few weeks.
