Kamm/Tjaden moved to approve the agenda as presented. Motion carried 3-0.
Public comment: none.Updates on various boards/commis-
sions/activities: Supv Tjaden attended the following meetings: Veteran Af-fairs, Decat Governance Board, Iowa Workforce Development, Courthouse Security, Local CARES Act Committee, and LEC/Courthouse Core Team. Supv Kamm attended a NIACOG meeting and has been hearing frustration in people regarding the Treasurer’s office being closed. Supvs Schwickerath and Tjaden attended the Local CARES Act webinar.
The Board will review claims indi-vidually following the meeting.
Updates on law enforcement center/courthouse project: Brian Shindelar, Samuels Group Site Superintendent, provided updates that Young Plumbing is working on underground electrical, ma-sons are working on finishing block walls and brick work, the generator should be coming today, Dean Snyder is install-ing some door frames, roof insulation is being placed, Wicks should be starting on pouring deck slabs in the atrium area, last week’s Safe & Sound lunch/meeting went well, there is an OAC meeting at 1 p.m. today. Tjaden reported that Deputy Shirley is working on kitchen appliances and heavily involved in the LEC area. A Paulsen Electric Change order #002 for $1,234.81 to rough in electrical for four missing cameras was reviewed.
Discussion regarding COVID-19 included: 1) Infections Disease Action Plan updates; 2) Screening form updates; 3) Local County COVID Relief Funds – there will be a department head meeting tomorrow to make sure necessary infor-mation is captured for reimbursement; 4) Statistics – There are 184 total cases, 151 recovered, three deaths, with a remaining 30 active cases.
The Board discussed the Commu-nications/Dispatch 28E agreement. Supv Schwickerath’s motion that was approved at the August 13 Communi-cations Board meeting was reviewed, “Recommend to Floyd County and the City of Charles City to enter into a new 28e agreement for dispatching within Floyd County with the following rec-ommendations. Floyd County to fund a working budget to supply a dispatch center and dispatch personnel to operate it overseen by the Floyd County Super-visors. City of Charles City to continue to supply the location of the transmission tower and location of transmitters with backup power until the current tower becomes obsolete. We also recommend that an advisory board be created as a resource for the dispatch operation, sug-gested membership being a Floyd County Supervisor, A Charles City Council Per-son, Floyd County Sherriff, Charles City Police Chief, and a representative of the Floyd County Firefighters Association. This agreement and board should be cre-ated before the communications board’s next meeting with the county setting the budget starting July 1, 2021.” Discussion included who could be included other potential membership to the Advisory Board, hiring a dispatch administrator who reports directly to the board of su-pervisors rather than to a police chief or sheriff, recommendations regarding dis-solving the current 28E and implement-ing a new agreement can be done as soon as governing bodies are ready to approve, the person hired would be a working ad-ministrator and could be hired whenever the new agreement is in place.
The Board reviewed an application for a person interested in serving for the vacated Zoning Commission position.

Today is Friday, Sept. 4, the 248th day of 2020. There are 118 days left in the year.
today's highlight in history: On Sept. 4, 1781, Los Angeles was
founded by Spanish settlers under the leadership of Governor Felipe de Neve.
On this date: In 1888, George Eastman received a
patent for his roll-film box camera, and registered his trademark: "Kodak."
In 1944, during World War II, British troops liberated Antwerp, Belgium.
In 1957, Arkansas Gov. Orval Faubus used Arkansas National Guardsmen to prevent nine Black students from entering all-white Central High School in Little Rock. Ford Motor Co. began selling its ill-fated Edsel.
In 1962, The Beatles, with new drum-mer Ringo Starr, recorded "Love Me Do" at EMI Studios in London.
(The more familiar version with substitute drummer Andy White and Starr on tambourine was recorded a week later.)
In 1969, the Food and Drug Adminis-tration issued a report calling birth control pills "safe," despite a slight risk of fatal blood-clotting disorders linked to the pills.
In 1971, an Alaska Airlines jet crashed near Juneau, killing all 111 people on board.
In 1974, the United States estab-lished diplomatic relations with East Germany.
In 1998, Internet services company Google filed for incorporation in California.
In 1999, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yass-er Arafat signed a breakthrough land-for-security agreement during a ceremony in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
In 2006, "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin, 44, died after a stingray's barb pierced his chest.
In 2014, comedian Joan Rivers died
at a New York hospital at age 81, a week after going into cardiac arrest in a doctor's office during a routine medical procedure.
In 2018, Amazon became the second publicly-traded company to reach $1 trillion in market value, following closely behind Apple. Comic actor Bill Daily, the sidekick to leading men on TV's "I Dream of Jeannie" and "The Bob Newhart Show," died in New Mexico at the age of 91.
ten years ago: Protesters hurled shoes and eggs at Tony Blair in Dublin, Ireland, as he held the first public signing of his memoir as British prime minister amid high security. Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Paul Conrad, 86, died in Rancho Palos Verdes.
Five years ago: Hosting Saudi Arabia's new monarch for the first time, President Barack Obama said the U.S. shared King Salman's desire for an inclusive, functioning government in Yemen; their talks also addressed the Iran nuclear deal, a source of lingering tension in the U.S.-Saudi relationship. Hundreds of migrants,
exhausted after breaking away from police and marching for hours toward Western Europe, boarded buses provided by Hungary's government after Austria and Ger-many said they would let them in.
One year ago: During an Oval Office meeting, President Donald Trump displayed a map of the National Hurricane Center forecast for nearly a week earlier that showed that Hurricane Dorian could track over Florida; the map included what appeared to be a hand-drawn half-circle that extended the cone of uncertainty over part of Alabama. (Trump had been publicly corrected by the National Weather Service after he had tweeted that Alabama would be among the states that would likely be hit "harder than anticipated.") A list of spending projects released by the Pentagon showed that officials would be cutting funding from projects including schools, target ranges and maintenance facilities to pay for the construction of 175 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border; a total of $3.6 billion would be diverted to the barrier.
Des Moines police charge woman with murder in death of man
DES MOINES (AP) — Des Moines police on Thursday charged a woman with murder in the death of a man who was shot to death in a neighborhood near Drake University.
Police charged Whitney Ann Davis, 33, of Des Moines, with first-degree murder in the death of Sean Newman, 36, of Des Moines.
Officers were called to investigate a shooting Wednesday af-ternoon, just east of the Drake campus. They found Newman dead, apparently from a gunshot wound.
