MINUTES OF THE ALLAMAKEE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

MONDAY, MAY 21, 2025

 

Board members present: Byrnes, Keatley and Clark. All members voting “AYE” unless noted.

 

Meeting called to order by Byrnes.

 

The following people were present at various times throughout the meeting in person or via Zoom: Joseph Moses – Standard newspaper, Denise Beyer – Auditor/Clerk to Supervisors, John Roe.

 

Tom Clark spoke to Paul Kruckow of Winona Heating and Ventilating and inquired why costs increased between April 22 proposal and May 14 proposal. Reason given was labor and tariffs have increased costs; the April 22 proposal says it is valid for 30 days; WHV would lose money if they honor that proposal. Discussion included the 3% discount if all steam traps and control valves are replaced; WHV possibly coming down some on the May 14 proposal since the April 22 proposal is still valid; doing the whole project and splitting the expense between FY25 remainder of budget and paying the remainder in FY26; also inquire how much WHV will reduce the May 14 proposal amount. Total on May 14 proposal to replace all steam traps and all control valves is $82,646.

 

25.191-Motion Kealtey/Second Byrnes to accept May 14 proposal for replacement of all steam traps and the control valves not to exceed $82,646 minus a 3% discount, with possible negotiation with WHV due to lower per steam trap price on previous proposal which was still valid. Motion carried.

 

25.192-Motion Clark/Second Keatley to adjourn. Motion carried.
