Boundary Line Adjustments Update <br />Porterfield: A BLA for underneath the Bloom addition is getting close to done and <br />working on tying in with the hill project. They are currently working to clean up language <br />and make the adjustment consistent with the access road along the hill. Porterfield is <br />continuing to work with the City and Public Works while waiting for clarification form the <br />Geotech. Kittitas County may have to put in a minimal amount of money to help pay for an <br />updated report or clean up project work. <br />4. Funding for Electrical Upgrades <br />Porterfield: There was $15,000 in budget for repairs/upgrades to the vendor courtyard. <br />The estimate came back higher than expected and there is a need for an additional $9,500 to <br />reconnect power to Frontier Village from the demo of the Dog Barn. The repairs are needed <br />as some pedstals are not in good operating condition and falling over. Per Bell Electric, it <br />needs to be done at the same time, not piece by piece. It would be $33,000 total to get the <br />needed repairs done. <br />Chair Wachsmith and Commissioner Wright stated to use ARPA funds of $18,000 to <br />cover the balance as the repairs are necessary. Kady will work with Zack DeHaven on a <br />budget amendment and notify him of the ARPA funds designation. <br />5. Amended Friends of the Fair PSA Progress Update <br />Porterfield: There was a Friends of the Fair meeting last week and there will be a special <br />Fair Board meeting tonight to discuss the Friends of the Fair contract. <br />Chair Wachsmith: Do all fair board members attend all of the meetings? <br />2024-05-20 MINUTES <br />
