Cost Of County Building Going Up
The Riley County Commission learned Monday that the remodeling of the
Riley
County Annex Building will cost a lot more that they had planned.
Robin Cook, Counselor's Finance Assistant told the Commission that
$618,000.00 approved by the Commission to do the remodeling will not
cover
the cost.
Cook said that new furniture was not added into the cost of construction
and the County will need another $175,000. Cook also said that wiring
for
computers and phones will cost another $50,000.
Riley County Treasurer Eileen King told the Commissioners that the
furniture moved to the temporary office building will stay at the fourth
street building and the County will not purchase new furniture for
that
building.
It cost the County $100,000 to move the County Treasure's Office and
the
County Clerk's Office to the fourth street building.
The Commissioners said they would have to take the $225,000 from next
years
Capital Improvements Program fund and put off several CIP items.
