OLD BUSINESS: none

NEW BUSINESS:

Signatures for Dispatch interlocal agreement with Aurora- McHenry said it had a termination section and it automatically renews annually. Baudendistel had reviewed it per McHenry. Approved and signed. 

Cardono Professional Agreement for archaeological dig for courthouse annex site- Randall presented this item. This is required because it is being funded by Riverboat Funds and the state considers those as state funds. They are not suspecting we will find a lot of artifacts. She went to 4 different firms. Cost estimates were $4750 - 9000. Working with Brad Rullman they were also the lowest and they recommend this firm. They will dig 10 holes and see what they find. This should be completed by mid- May. Baudendistel reviewed this. Approved and signed. 

ADMINISTRATOR- Terri Randall- nothing more

AUDITOR- Gayle Pennington- claims approved and April 5th minutes approved. 

The 2016 tax sale contract from the treasurer and auditor with SRI and Baudendistel already reviewed and the fee is raised from $70-now being $75 per parcel. They do all the research and conduct the sale. There are usually about 100 after the advertising though they start with about 300 parcels. The commissioners end up with 25 certificates at the end that don’t sell. Approved and signed. 

ATTORNEY- Andy Baudendistel- Right of Entry Agreement with Lawrenceburg Redevelopment- presented by McHenry. This is the lot on William Street and Maple Street for parking which is owned by Redevelopment omission of Lawrenceburg. Parking is needed during the construction of the annex.
