County Building Group Action Delayed Over Nurses Home Bid
County building commission delayed a decision on bids for the nurses home amid debate over a $500 fee for architect Frank Bail. Bail offered to waive the fee if requested, but warned he could be tagged “typed” on a technicality if payment is withheld. Commissioners George Rhoads and Thomas Peebles opposed bids, arguing insufficient funds. others favored bidding to assess finances while Bail contends he already earned part of the fee. Prosecutor Don Myers noted Bail’s contract may deny further pay if no bids are received.
