The Marshall County Commissioners will discuss the construction of a multi-purpose building at the Marshall County Fairgrounds in Argos when they meet this morning.
Shannon McLeod will be before the governing body to discuss the project spearheaded by the Marshall County 4-H Fair Association. The association was applying for an OCRA grant in the amount of $500,000 to assist in the construction of the building that the members hope will host many functions including wedding receptions, meetings and other community-type gatherings. The county will act as a pass-through vehicle for the purpose of obtaining the grant. County Attorney Jim Clevenger will present a memorandum of understanding between the county and the association that states that the county is not financially liable for this project.
The Marshall County Commissioners will also hear an update from the county highway department. Laurie Johnson from DLZ and Ben Beer from USI will have information on two county bridge projects.
The Marshall County Commissioners will meet today at 9:30 a.m. in the second floor meeting room in the Marshall County Building in Plymouth.
