On a motion by Commissioner Oscar G Dunn the county board ordered the clerk to list unexpended balances in the insurance and repair funds for county buildings and earmark them for courthouse repair and maintenance only. Dunn favored using available funds to remove the courthouse dome and direct remaining funds to general repairs. The board asked the state building department to inspect the dome before deciding on repair.
