Mr.

options for the awning for the west door of the Courthouse. The possibility of an awning with a
contrasting trim was discussed at last week’s meeting. Mr. Witte reported that the vendor has
suggested the trim be painted on with a commercial latex paint that would probably
outlast the awning itself. Extra cost
for the painted trim is $275; this makes the total cost for the awning $4,065
including installation. Commissioner
Schroeder made a motion to approve the bid from Mid-Kansas Tent & Awning
for an awning with second-color trim for the west courthouse entrance for a
total cost of $4,065, including installation.
Commissioner Patrick seconded. All
voted aye.
