(KLZA)--The Richardson County Commissioners conducted a quarterly meeting of the County Safety Committee Tuesday, February 26.
Emergency Management Agency Director Brian Kirkendall discussed his concerns with the water leaks in the tunnel area of the Courthouse. Kirkendall said the leaks need to be fixed to keep mold out of the tunnel.
Commissioners said they would contact the architectural firm that designed the addition to find a solution to correct the problems.
Road Department representatives requested the Board consider soliciting bids for the demolition of an obsolete building located at the County Yard in Humboldt. Various items at the Courthouse were also discussed.
Sheriff Don Pounds met with Commissioners, reporting on deputy staffing in his department which is still not at full strength. The Sheriff requested the Commissioners seriously consider increasing the salary for deputies. Board members said they would review the request and plans were made to meet with deputy sheriffs at the March 12 meeting to discuss the matter.
