LARRY DICKEN:

President Dickerson said yes, and that it was turned over to those in charge of the project and answered by Judge Moses. Larry Dicken said he contacted them Friday and they have not dropped their inquiry. He stated it should have been bided out because it’s $900,000 and either the Commissioners or the contractor will have to pay prevailing wage.

Larry Dicken suggested that the Commissioners have a four-day workweek the last four months of the year to help with the general fund.

Larry Dicken asked if they still had issues collecting delinquent sewer payments. President Dickerson said yes, $20,000 outstanding. Larry Dicken suggested paying someone by the hour to dig up sewer lines and shut them off.

PUBLIC COMMENT:

President Dickerson said a letter was received regarding prevailing wage but they sought the advice of the Prosecutor. He stated that if there were any questions to speak with the Prosecutor.
