any controversial things on the agenda
considering that our that our audience

00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,238
is a little bit slim as far as in house,
but it could be our everybody's watching

» Uh
Before I get completely started, uh

44
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:45,680
uh
folks don't understand sometimes the the

45
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:50,000
elements of this job and I uh I was
enjoying my off day yesterday after I

46
00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:53,480
was on a holiday yesterday. Do y'all get
a holiday?

47
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:57,480
Float day. I was enjoying my holiday and
Commissioner Jeff Brown over here called

48
00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:01,560
me and uh there were some issues over
here at the courthouse. So, sometimes

49
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:05,240
the holidays interrupt you. It All I had
to do was set my tea down and get But

50
00:07:03,789 --> 00:07:08,760
[clears throat] Jeff had to go respond
cuz there's some problems with Did you

get your double time paid? I got my I
got my double time [laughter] I'm paid,

52
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,640
but we we don't like to charge for that
unless we work at least 15 minutes and

53
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:19,200
I'm not
work the 15 minutes, but I think you

54
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,919
might have a little more time invested,
so

55
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,000
» bit.
>> Appreciate you falling out for that

56
00:07:21,919 --> 00:07:27,720
project. It's Why do they happen on uh
They seem to happen on weekends and

57
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:31,360
holidays somehow or another, but our air
conditioning system over here at the

58
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,840

00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,000
» Fire alarms went off.
>> The fire alarms went off.

60
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,960
[clears throat] We have to respond to
those, you know, that it could actually

61
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,080
be a fire.
>> Yeah.

62
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:45,720
» Thank goodness most of the time it's not
and and uh but we respond to those. We

63
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:49,200
have to get staff to respond. So,
business goes on. I don't care what time

64
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:52,480
of day or whether it's a holiday or
whatever. So, that's that's part of the

65
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:57,040
process.
Uh today before we go into a regular

66
00:07:54,600 --> 00:08:02,760
commission meeting, we have scheduled a
911 meeting. The Sanker County

67
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:07,040
Commission serves as the 911 board, the
uh the board of directors of this

68
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:11,120

80
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:54,440
Uh and and actually under new business,
uh all we have is an update from

81
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:59,120
discussion of the work session related
to the MCA invoice. And there's actually

82
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:04,440
nothing to approve at this meeting. Uh
staff is recommending we hold off even

83
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:08,040
We thought about approving it uh
maybe with county attorney's uh

84
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:11,200
uh uh uh
pending his review, but it might be

85
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:16,120
better just hold off and put it on the
next uh the next uh work session to

86
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:20,880
discuss see if we work out exactly what
the issues were on that. So, just as an

00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:32,720
to Motorola. It was
Well, it's 19,000 something like that.

90
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:36,240
It wasn't a big It wasn't a big deal
anyway. So, there's something a lot

91
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:40,120
greater that we had to address it not be
a little more concerned. We will handle

92
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:44,000
that at the next work session and then
at the next at the next meeting. So with

And that project does could take as much
as two two months before we can get the

133
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:16,600
road back open. But we're moving fast as
we can.

to uh

150
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:46,640
finalize the environmental document
basically, so they can move forward with

151
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:51,440
the waterline relocation project. After
that is uh finished, they'll move

152
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:57,760
