I'm Lesie Fernandez. We have Bal Sakora and Art San Roman 60 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:23,120 also just recently off the court this morning uh to come and ask your 61 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:30,639 permission to continue our winter use of the event center uh for our pickle ball 62 00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:36,240 club. The county has graciously uh been involved in this for I think four years 63 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:43,600 since the city um pulled their venue out from under our 64 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:51,120 feet. Uh the county filled a need that we really had and um both the commission 65 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:56,240 and Fred Martinez with the maintenance uh were have been wonderful the last 66 00:12:53,920 --> 00:13:02,399 several years. As you know, the bathrooms were being redone and so we 67 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:09,519 couldn't be in there for a while and then with the uh lack of snow and cold 68 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:14,800 weather last winter, our club really didn't need to be in uh the event 69 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:20,079 center. We played outside. We have outdoor courts up at the tennis at the 70 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:26,320 tennis complex at the high school. This year, we're asking uh for your 71 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:34,079 permission to once again use the indoor venue uh on days where it's not 72 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:39,680 previously booked for events. In the past, we've had great 73 00:13:35,839 --> 00:13:48,160 communication with maintenance as to what those events were and when they 74 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:53,920 were, and we clear our u equipment out, and we're very glad to clean the floor, 75 00:13:50,959 --> 00:14:01,600 do whatever we need to do uh for that event or for the maintenance people. Mr. 76 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:08,639 Munice has contacted uh Val Sakura uh about [clears throat] perhaps being able 77 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:14,240 to do this again uh this winter and we we believe we're actually good stewards 78 00:14:11,199 --> 00:14:22,720 for the building. Um we're there every day that we can be every morning from 79 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:29,279 about 7:30 to 10 max. Um, in the past we've found uh frozen pipes uh for the 80 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:34,880 bathroom and and let the county know. Uh we've found the door open, let the 81 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:41,680 county know. So we feel that we and and we also clean. Uh so we feel that we are 82 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:47,760 a benefit a little bit to the county. Uh not nearly as much as you guys are a 83 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:56,240 benefit to us. Uh so we are we're a club of about oh probably 125 people. Um but 84 00:14:53,519 --> 00:15:03,279 we would have anywhere between uh 4 and 12 on any given morning. 85 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:09,120 Uh we thank you guys whatever your decision is.

Well, 183 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:24,559 I'm confused here on this because this process 184 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:30,000 is um I I I've gone through your subdivision 185 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:36,640 manual here and there's nowhere in here it says it defines what a subdivision is 186 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:43,600 and then there's these certain ones that are not 187 00:23:39,919 --> 00:23:48,799 subdivision does not include in the list 13 items and this is a number 11. 188 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:55,600 And then you go all the way down till you're in 7.6 which is the exception 189 00:23:51,760 --> 00:24:01,039 rule and it says approval required. It tells you you have to get approved to 190 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:04,960 do a subdivision in the county but then you have to either go through 191 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:13,520 the subdivision rules. >> You need to speak into the mic. 192 00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:18,400 So you define what subdivision is and I'm doing the number 11. 193 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:23,840 That's one of those in under subdivision it says subdivision do not include and 194 00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:28,960 you line out 13 things. And you go down to 7.6 and it says 195 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:34,640 exceptions approval required. It's unlawful for any person to buy land in 196 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:40,240 the county weather meteor whatever. But then there's two items A or B. A if you 197 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:49,279 go through all the subdivisions or B file and obtain approval exception 198 00:24:42,799 --> 00:24:56,480 defined as in 2M before and then 1 7 8 9 12 13 then right after that the 199 00:24:53,039 --> 00:25:00,559 definitions provision defined on these other ones which number 11 are not 200 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:06,960 required under these regulations. So why are we if I'm I'm questioning why it has 201 00:25:03,679 --> 00:25:11,520 to come to the board to be reviewed, looked over, discussed when it doesn't 202 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:14,960 have to be approved. And there's no other place in the total 203 00:25:13,279 --> 00:25:19,880 ordinance that even tells you you have to file 204 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,880 this. 205 00:25:20,559 --> 00:25:27,679 So I mean I'm trying to I'm a surveyor. 206 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:32,400 Sorry. Scott We shield survey. I'm the one that did this survey 207 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:38,559 and in the past the prior ordinance everything had to come to the county and 208 00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:43,600 then when Miss Karns was county manager they went through and they said certain 209 00:25:40,559 --> 00:25:47,200 ones didn't have to be approved as it shows 210 00:25:45,360 --> 00:25:52,080 when I deal with other county like Charles County they have a planning and 211 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:58,400 zoning officer you go to him he looks at it approves it sign it record it and 212 00:25:54,320 --> 00:26:05,880 done same way in San Miguel So my question to you then why is this 213 00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:05,880 one why was this one put on the agenda? 214 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:11,679 » So sir what you will what you will see is that this was put on the agenda for 215 00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:15,840 discussion only not for action. >> So you do read the ordinance correctly. 216 00:26:14,159 --> 00:26:19,679 This does not require the approval of the commission. However the commission 217 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:23,760 has requested to review all claims of exemption that go through. So therefore 218 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:27,919 this is up for discussion only today. But it's not on your there's nothing in 219 00:26:26,159 --> 00:26:33,840 the law. Everything has to become for the commission. It's not in the shed. 220 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:37,760 There's an ordinance that I'm following. >> I understand that. There's I mean it's 221 00:26:35,679 --> 00:26:40,480 it's it's strictly permissive that it that it comes before the commission for 222 00:26:39,279 --> 00:26:44,559 discussion. >> No, 223 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:48,960 » we could discuss anything we would like you want, but I'm saying if it doesn't 224 00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:55,039 need approval, there's no reason for it to become the board. it on here as a 225 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:59,120 discussion only >> and but it doesn't it doesn't really 226 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:03,960 need your signature. It doesn't need approval. 227 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,960 » Correct. 228 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:10,000 » I'll let Daniel answer that. >> Yeah. It I mean it doesn't it doesn't 229 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:13,760 require the commission approval, >> right? So you correct 230 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:17,520 » or anything else. >> You're you're correct on that, sir. 231 00:27:15,279 --> 00:27:21,200 However, again, the as a matter of internal 232 00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:25,360 uh SOP uh the commission's request to see all 233 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:29,600 of these uh before they get recorded in the 234 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:33,919 clerk's office. And frankly, today is a really good example of the reason why, 235 00:27:31,919 --> 00:27:39,760 right? Is that is that first of all, we we do have an issue with the with the 236 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:43,120 legal description on this one uh where it is defective and would not be it 237 00:27:41,679 --> 00:27:47,120 would be rejected by the county clerk's office if you if it was attempted to be 238 00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:49,679 recorded. And uh 239 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:53,520 » the legal description the legal description is on the plat. 240 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:58,240 » I I understand that sir. >> On that one little line. 241 00:27:56,399 --> 00:28:00,480 » I I understand that sir. That's this is part of the claim of exemption. You're 242 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,799 talking about the claim of exemption. You're not talking about the plat at the 243 00:28:01,679 --> 00:28:07,919 moment. You're talking about the claim of exemption. Then the second thing is 244 00:28:05,039 --> 00:28:11,440 that that there is a uh a legitimate question that came up in terms of why it 245 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,440 is that Gary Coffin was the one who attested. 246 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:24,880 And so and so Ms. Martinez and I will follow up on that uh and uh and and take 247 00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:31,320 a look at that and you know frankly the the additional set of eyes uh is helpful 248 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,320 in this process. 249 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:38,640 I'm just I guess what I'm why I'm asking questioning because the ordinances are 250 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:44,159 not clear and they need to be updated and corrected so that because you look 251 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:48,960 at other county or Union County it says all things have to come to the 252 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:53,840 commission all subdivision. This one does not. 253 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:57,679 It's very vague. >> I I do agree with you sir that we should 254 00:28:55,600 --> 00:29:02,960 probably update do do another review and update that uh that ordinance. Uh and 255 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:07,200 that is that is a project that I think uh Miss Martinez and I have identified 256 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:11,279 as something to work on. Uh you are correct. But in the meantime, until it 257 00:29:09,039 --> 00:29:17,279 is updated, like I said, this is the standard operating procedure that has 258 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:23,919 been uh selected by the county. >> Well, I I just 259 00:29:20,559 --> 00:29:28,640 Okay. I I disagree. But 260 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:32,720 as for the signature, that's the lawyer for Mr. Papernac. 261 00:29:31,039 --> 00:29:37,760 That's what I signed. He did. He filled out the forms. He signed it. Adam, 262 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:42,480 I don't know if it has to be the person owning the land. It doesn't say has to 263 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:46,320 be the land owner. It has to be signed. I signed the last 264 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:53,120 one. So again, clarity is not very well in 265 00:29:49,919 --> 00:29:59,520 the ordinances and and these documents. >> Uh you are you're correct, sir. The the 266 00:29:55,039 --> 00:30:05,200 short I I will say that the uh while the attorney can certainly sign on behalf of 267 00:30:01,679 --> 00:30:12,399 his client. Uh it would have been nice if the short form that is provided in 268 00:30:08,399 --> 00:30:17,760 the signature in the uh in the notary block. Uh and those short forms are are 269 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:23,200 contained in statute. I believe it's 14-14A-15 270 00:30:19,919 --> 00:30:28,480 if I remember correctly. Uh one of them the the second short form in that list 271 00:30:25,279 --> 00:30:32,159 is in representative capacity. So if it had if it had indicated that he was 272 00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:37,159 signing in representative capacity, I think that would have resolved any 273 00:30:33,279 --> 00:30:37,159 questions that might have come up. 274 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:48,919 » Okay, that's that's my question. Why is this being discussed when it doesn't 275 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,919 need approval, doesn't need signatures? 276 00:30:49,039 --> 00:30:54,600 » You've made your point, sir. >> Thank you. 277 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:09,279 » And Miss Martinez, you and Daniel, please review this and let's get it 278 00:31:06,399 --> 00:31:12,720 straight. And as far as I'm concerned, it can all come before the commission. 279 00:31:11,679 --> 00:31:14,640 » Yes, sir. >> Thank you, ma'am. 280 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:21,279 » Mhm. >> All right. Moving on. Light item 12. 281 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:27,840 Discussion action.

Um, Tina 296 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:30,000 Gyos reached out again to inform her interest in being a lodger tax member 297 00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:35,039 again. She was a former member before and served a few years with us. And uh 298 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:38,919 in your packet, you should have received her letter of interest 299 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:44,480 and she is also online for any questions you may have for him. 300 00:32:42,559 --> 00:32:48,080 » Okay. >> Commissioners, 301 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:51,760 » um no questions. I Tina was on there before and did a good job, so I would 302 00:32:49,919 --> 00:32:56,880 support it. >> Well, I know Tina, I support her and my 303 00:32:54,960 --> 00:33:00,080 only request is we make sure that all this is in the actual online portal as 304 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:05,039 well. >> Okay. 305 00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:12,799 Uh, how many does that give you? >> So, we have Kimi as a owner or operator 306 00:33:09,039 --> 00:33:19,279 of a short-term rental.

Tyler Davis as a resident who represents 308 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:30,880 the general public in the unported area of the county.

Yes, I was just bringing this back with 321 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:31,599 a few questions that you guys had. Um I think in your packet 322 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:36,480 you could see that the Wild Divide submitted their 323 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:42,879 numbers. Um of course they can't exactly pinpoint exactly 324 00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:50,000 um exact numbers that came from the billboard, but just from the area where 325 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:54,159 the billboard sit. Um, also I if you guys have any other 326 00:34:52,240 --> 00:34:57,760 questions I can answer. 327 00:34:55,520 --> 00:35:02,400 » I believe Commissioner Trujillo had asked what quality the signs are still 328 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:06,560 in. >> Are the pictures you sent current or 329 00:35:05,599 --> 00:35:09,200 past? >> Um, 330 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:15,520 » one was really hard to >> Yeah, the gun was in the way of one of 331 00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:19,520 them. Um they did request that they be changed out at least every two years 332 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:24,320 because after one year they start getting sunfaded. 333 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:28,480 Um so that would leave us >> next year we would have to replace them 334 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:31,839 if not sooner. Um I did ask her about changing the locations too and she said 335 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:37,599 she could get us quote on changing the locations too on I40. 336 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:41,599 » Okay. I just that one you had to look across and 337 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:47,920 » where they took the picture and that was a pretty poor view. But anyway, that was 338 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:53,280 my only concern with it. >> That's the view you have when I mean I 339 00:35:50,079 --> 00:35:57,920 drove I know I couldn't see it. >> So 340 00:35:54,880 --> 00:36:02,640 » I if you don't mind, Mr. Chairman, I I'm not in favor of this. Uh the data that 341 00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:08,800 we received was from the Wild Divide, not Lamar. So, it had to do with 342 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:15,440 websites. There's still a 5% increase and uh the overall cost of it. And we're 343 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:20,720 not changing the billboard. So, I mean, I'd rather change the 344 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:25,119 billboard, what's on it, and spend the money 345 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:29,240 because you can't read it or move the board.

Line item 15, discussion action certific 360 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:45,440 certificate of property tax rates in Mills, Kfax County tax year 2026. 361 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,320 Morning, sir. >> Good morning, commissioners. Good 362 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:54,000 morning, chairman. Good morning, Madame Clerk. Madame County Manager. The 2026 363 00:37:52,079 --> 00:37:58,079 property tax rate have been received and reviewed. Overall, there are no 364 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:01,920 significant or unusual changes from 2025. 365 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:08,400 Residential rates decreased across our tax districts, while non-residential 366 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:13,200 rates remained the same. For the county operational portion, the residential 367 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:19,760 rate decreased from 9.131 to 8.959 mills for 2026. 368 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:24,079 To address the reason for that decrease, the property tax division calculates the 369 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:30,400 residential operational rate using the yield control formula. As our 370 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:34,000 residential tax base increased, yield control limits the amount of revenue 371 00:38:32,240 --> 00:38:39,760 growth that can come from existing property while accounting for allowable 372 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:45,040 inflation and new construction. That calculation resulted in the 373 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:52,400 residential rate decreasing to 8.959 mills. The county non-residential 374 00:38:48,079 --> 00:38:57,160 operational rate remains at the 11.85 which is the maximum allowed by statute. 375 00:38:57,599 --> 00:39:01,400 Thank you, Commissioners. 376 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:08,079 » Questions? Commissioner >> Joe, thank you very much for what you uh 377 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,520 stated with there on the yield control. I appreciate it. 378 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:14,240 » Thank you. >> Um I just wanted to confirm with the 379 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:19,680 county manager that the revenue uh generated by the tax rates will match 380 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:24,640 what's in the budget adopted. >> So when we adopt the budget, we use the 381 00:39:21,839 --> 00:39:31,440 previous year's um rates. That's the requirement. That's how the format is 382 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:37,680 set up. The change between the new mill rate versus what we used when we created 383 00:39:34,079 --> 00:39:45,920 the budget is $85,593 decrease, which is a 1.2% decrease. 384 00:39:41,839 --> 00:39:53,480 So that's we did budget 7,183 in property tax revenue and now with the 385 00:39:48,720 --> 00:39:53,480 change the estimate is 7,97. 386 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,920 » Thank you. 387 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:08,000 » Anything further? >> Seeing none.

Um it it 407 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:39,520 continues to come on and uh you will likely continue to see this once a month 408 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:44,079 until such time as the uh fire marshall tells us that uh that the situation has 409 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:48,720 changed sufficiently and I've had to put this on. 410 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:52,560 » Thank you.

Um there has been a couple of errors that 423 00:42:41,599 --> 00:42:50,960 have been discovered but the engineers in the process of fixing them. But these 424 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:56,800 maps not only have all the county roads on them, but they also have the 425 00:42:53,040 --> 00:43:02,640 commission districts broken down and insets for like the Farley area, the 426 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:09,280 Raton area. In the previous maps, they you couldn't really read them, but they 427 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:17,440 put insets so that you can look at them and and actually see the road numbers. 428 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:25,200 They've also compiled a list of the roads, the road names, um how 429 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:32,720 many u miles they are, the width, the type of service, and how many crashes. 430 00:43:29,359 --> 00:43:39,119 They've also broken it down to where it's got the list of bridges.

And I did have one question and I didn't 463 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:25,440 look. There was two or three of the roads that 464 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:30,800 we had listed under one name, but the sign said something else. 465 00:46:28,240 --> 00:46:32,400 » That is also something else that I'm working on. 466 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:37,119 » Correct. >> Um cuz we do have some roads that do not 467 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:41,520 have numbers.

Yes, ma'am. 470 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:56,480 » We're going to have to work on that. >> And I may have the wrong row. Forgive me 471 00:46:53,520 --> 00:47:03,440 if I did. But like one of them starts out saying Blosser Road, then it turns 472 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:08,560 into another road into the same road and then it goes back to Blosser Road. Are 473 00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:11,760 y'all correct in that mess? >> We're trying to. 474 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:17,599 » Okay. Thank you. You're welcome. That That just drives me nuts.

Okay, I know I'm on the right 482 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:59,520 highway. Everybody look for a piece of orange tape lapping on a gate or a side 483 00:47:57,119 --> 00:48:03,119 road that not marked. >> Correct. 484 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:08,319 » Yeah, that's a very good idea.

So, we 489 00:48:23,119 --> 00:48:31,359 toured four or five roads together. I was going to look at partially for a 490 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:38,559 different reason and partially for the same, but uh that was we had an 491 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:45,599 interesting trip. I'm not sure what part of them are frustrated with 492 00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:50,720 uh I'll get with him later. There was one on a new house that was just wilder 493 00:48:48,319 --> 00:48:53,520 and thunder. Thank you, ma'am. Appreciate it. 494 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,520 » Thank you, >> manager. 495 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:08,640 » I was able to reach out to PHI Cares, which is the um medical service. 496 00:49:06,559 --> 00:49:14,319 I will have them presenting to the commission on September 21st. There are 497 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:18,640 two options. the county can choose to pay a certain rate which would cover all 498 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:23,920 county residents that are not under Medicaid. They would be able to use the 499 00:49:22,079 --> 00:49:28,800 flight system for no pay and no deductible. Um they have to be a 500 00:49:26,319 --> 00:49:35,520 resident of County of Kfax and be flown out from Kfax to um wherever they're 501 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:41,200 flown. And then there's an option to pay for indigent only or excuse me for 502 00:49:37,839 --> 00:49:44,559 inmates only. So when they do come forward to present, they will have two 503 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:49,280 different contracts for the commission to consider. 504 00:49:47,119 --> 00:49:55,119 Um I have signed two special event permits for cold beer for two events in 505 00:49:52,640 --> 00:50:00,200 Filmont, September 12th and September 18th. 506 00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:00,200 is 507 00:50:00,319 --> 00:50:08,319 the the September 12th event, 508 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:12,960 excuse me, September 10th is a pre-dinner reception and a meet and 509 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:19,520 greet for a fly fishing invitational.

Um, the reason I'm bringing it up is 526 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:49,119 there is a leak at the judicial center and it looks like it's a re a leak in 527 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:56,240 the HVAC drain. Uh Mosark is working on that today or today or Thursday and uh 528 00:51:53,520 --> 00:52:00,960 we'll work with J3 to let them know what the fix will be. But J Mosarch will be 529 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:07,520 putting on a temporary fix until we get J3 on the project. 530 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:12,000 And we have also I have also scheduled a personnel policy review with staff on 531 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:16,720 September 14th. We need to take a look at some changes 532 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:24,559 that were presented in the new personnel policy um that we would hope to uh 533 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:30,559 remediate at the next meeting and then um bring forward all changes by the 534 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:36,559 October the first meeting in October. And finally, I um engineering analytics 535 00:52:34,319 --> 00:52:41,839 sent the minutes for the Tanaha crossing project and Commissioner Kern has asked 536 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:46,720 for them to present at the next meeting to get you all an update. So, we'll have 537 00:52:44,079 --> 00:52:52,720 them on the next agenda. And finally, I will be out of the office 538 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:57,200 on September 28th, which is Monday. And that's all I have. 539 00:52:55,359 --> 00:53:03,680 Oh, one more thing. I do have one more thing. I apologize. Uh, regarding solid 540 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:08,319 waste leans filing, uh, 91 leans have been filed. We've had several people 541 00:53:06,240 --> 00:53:12,240 come forward saying that they no longer live at the property. They have it's 542 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:16,880 been vacant for years. Um, so we're working through that process. Uh, two 543 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:23,040 leans that were filed have been paid in full. And Miss Martinez's next step is 544 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:26,880 to start filing on the mobile homes. And there's 21 mobile homes that have been 545 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:29,599 identified. So, she'll be working on filing those leans because they're a 546 00:53:28,319 --> 00:53:34,319 little bit different than the regular leans. 547 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:39,760 And that's about it. Um, she really hasn't heard [clears throat] from other 548 00:53:36,319 --> 00:53:43,680 people that have been filed on. Um, so the leans exist. We just haven't 549 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:51,359 received any um correspondence there from it. 550 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:57,680 » Uh, did she get anywhere with the dumpsters on B4? 551 00:53:55,280 --> 00:54:01,760 She did. Um the chains were long enough. They just weren't being secured 552 00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:05,440 correctly. Uh she did go out there, she secured 553 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:09,920 them. I just It's just going to be a matter of checking on them. And 554 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:12,960 hopefully residents realize the way to properly chain them. But yes, the chains 555 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:18,480 are long enough. >> Yeah, I checked them. But part of the 556 00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:24,559 problem, too, is they had a secure bolt on half of them. Bears pop them up and 557 00:54:22,079 --> 00:54:29,520 open them. They need to have a flap over to keep them latched. 558 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:34,480 » I will have her speak to you after the meeting. 559 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:40,079 » Okay, sounds good. Uh, well, that was on my commission docket, 560 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:44,319 but I wanted y'all to have your request for the handbook by the end of this 561 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:50,720 week. Uh, so it gave us time to review it. 562 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:54,480 But, uh, the employee handbook, >> oh, 563 00:54:51,359 --> 00:55:01,280 » I was hoping to have y'all's review and thoughts by the end of this week to get 564 00:54:57,839 --> 00:55:07,520 of us adequate time to go over what y'all's requests were, 565 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:13,520 but we can delay final if needed, I guess. 566 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:18,319 Okay, that's all I have. Uh, commissioners, y'all have any further 567 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:24,240 questions for the manager? Yeah, I I I do. Um, Cheryl, you said about the 568 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:29,680 closure of A6. That's 569 00:55:27,119 --> 00:55:32,079 » We're not We're not closing A6. 62. Maybe 570 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,720 » A6. >> Oh my gosh. 571 00:55:32,720 --> 00:55:35,720 » Oh, 572 00:55:35,839 --> 00:55:40,040 okay. >> My fault. A62. 573 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:51,440 and on on the fire department inventory is is uh 574 00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:54,640 hanging in my mind and everything. It I don't know if maybe we could visit with 575 00:55:53,040 --> 00:56:00,843 Filmont and learn a little bit more about this particular software they've 576 00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:04,799 chosen. Um, if it's something that [clears throat] 577 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:07,920 I I I need to go back to I I think it's paramount that all of the departments if 578 00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:12,640 they're going to use an inventory software that we all use the same one 579 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:18,480 and maybe we can do it like we do the dispatch that each fire department pays 580 00:56:16,240 --> 00:56:25,280 a little bit into the purchase of the software and that way we we assure that 581 00:56:22,240 --> 00:56:30,160 we're all using the same software. Um, so I don't know if maybe you or you and 582 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:35,119 Penny could look at that and and visit with James about that and and um explore 583 00:56:33,599 --> 00:56:39,680 that a little bit more. >> So the financial software that we're 584 00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:46,760 receiving a presentation on has asset tracking and all of whe whatever the 585 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:46,760 departments use 586 00:56:47,359 --> 00:56:56,559 that might be for their own purpose. we will have to put their items into this 587 00:56:52,640 --> 00:57:01,040 software so that we are tracking it. Um I appreciate that Filmont is tracking 588 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:07,359 their assets. However, it's the county's responsibility to track assets for all 589 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:13,680 of the fire departments. So again, the the product that we we are reviewing 590 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:17,920 does have fixed asset module and everything will be uploaded for the fire 591 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:25,359 departments into this particular software. Well, our Triadic has a 592 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:30,079 » They do that asset tracking in it. And what what new financial thing are we 593 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:35,640 looking at? >> It it's called Tyler Technologies, the 594 00:57:32,079 --> 00:57:35,640 ERP system. 595 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:45,200 » Sorry, excuse me. So, the fire departments are required to give their 596 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:49,040 assets to the state fire marshals. They are trying to use a better software 597 00:57:47,119 --> 00:57:54,559 system to keep track of their own stuff using their own FPF money to make it 598 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:58,559 easier on them to put a label and a tracking system. The way I understand it 599 00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:05,440 from James is he can send us an Excel spreadsheet and we can upload it into 600 00:58:00,799 --> 00:58:11,119 any of our software inventory. Also, instead of doing it twice, once I get 601 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:15,920 it, I put it on a list, but he can also track his own stuff as it comes in. When 602 00:58:13,599 --> 00:58:20,880 they order stuff that doesn't come, you know, we don't always know when they get 603 00:58:18,079 --> 00:58:25,760 their stuff. We see the PO and we see the invoice, but he's trying they're 604 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:30,640 trying they have so much to keep track of at Belmont. They're trying to make it 605 00:58:28,079 --> 00:58:36,000 easier to keep track of their inventory individually. And I know they have asked 606 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:41,280 all the fire departments to use the same software to kind of do it for the state 607 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:45,839 fire marshall's office not to make it easier when they report to them. But 608 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:51,680 ours does like Cheryl said we can input into any system whether it's Tyler 609 00:58:48,079 --> 00:58:55,520 Triotic Cassell whatever we go with if we ever change then it is able the 610 00:58:54,000 --> 00:59:02,760 software that they are looking into to pay for with their own FPF funds can 611 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:02,760 integrate into any software we have 612 00:59:03,119 --> 00:59:10,480 because in the past they have hired companies to come and 613 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:13,839 inventory their stuff. Well, they just want to do it themselves instead of 614 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:17,880 paying an outside source to come in and label everything for them. 615 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:26,920 » If that helps, Commissioner Kern. >> Well, yeah, it does. And I understand 616 00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:26,920 all that. And I'm just 617 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:34,319 want to make sure everybody uses the same thing because if not, it's going to 618 00:59:30,799 --> 00:59:39,200 make your job a lot lower. I think as long as we can upload it, as 619 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:43,440 long as they use Excel weave, it's it's always you can convert it into our 620 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:51,040 software. I have over 14 years of asset tracking. 621 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:55,040 Uh when I left here the first time, the system was perfect and I under not 622 00:59:53,119 --> 01:00:00,640 perfect, I should say it was caught up. Everything was captured. I went to each 623 00:59:58,079 --> 01:00:05,839 uh fire department. We did an asset inventory. We got everything uploaded 624 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:10,160 into Triadic. I think we had a company come in that 625 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:15,599 helped do the asset tracking and then it's my understanding that that uh 626 01:00:12,319 --> 01:00:21,119 tracking system was destroyed. It was lost. And I don't know the status of 627 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:26,000 assets at this time, but I do know how to track what we've purchased in the 628 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:31,760 past year, the past two years. and I will be able to teach Penny how to ass 629 01:00:29,119 --> 01:00:36,960 to track assets whether we use triadic or not. And I know that Justin has been 630 01:00:34,319 --> 01:00:41,119 helping her as well. But moving forward, we're going to get a good grip on 631 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:46,400 capital asset tracking is that's a very um important process for the county and 632 01:00:44,319 --> 01:00:49,400 that can always um turn into audit findings. 633 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:57,520 » I know. Sorry. Go I know when Miss Apodaka was still here, she was doing 634 01:00:54,960 --> 01:01:03,599 that. And you're correct. When you left, it was balanced to the tea. And then the 635 01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:09,280 next individual, they their computer got destroyed and we ended up starting from 636 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:15,599 scratch again. And so, or not from scratch, but it was it was kind of it 637 01:01:12,799 --> 01:01:19,760 was a nightmare. And but Miss Abdaka had it all balanced and everything as well. 638 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:24,000 What happened after that, I have no idea. 639 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:31,680 And the commission is required by statute to certify annually 640 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:34,480 um sign off on asset inventory. Um 641 01:01:33,359 --> 01:01:39,359 so >> it is definitely on the list. 642 01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:44,960 » Yep. So now that fiscal year 26 is closed, Penny and I will be printing 643 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:50,559 reports um of all assets purchased from July 2025 through June 26, and we're 644 01:01:47,839 --> 01:01:56,079 going to get them into Triotic. I'm pretty sure well I I know that Justin 645 01:01:52,880 --> 01:02:03,400 was able to get those um assets into triotic for the previous year so that we 646 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:03,400 were able to present for the audit. 647 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:14,559 » Yeah, I know when uh well I'll just throw you park fire under the bus since 648 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:18,359 that's but uh we requested an asset list. 649 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:29,359 It doesn't exist. Finally, I found an old one and I am 650 01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:35,680 handdoing it. You know how many pieces are on a truck and well, yeah, you 651 01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:42,240 would. So would you. Uh, and that was often a computer 652 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:48,480 that they quit using 15 years before I came on and Amado was able to pull the 653 01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:56,000 documents off of it. But uh hand itemizing is a thrill. But 654 01:02:52,799 --> 01:03:02,880 they had it listed four years before where two members from the county came 655 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:09,839 with the fire marshal at that time and scanned every piece of equipment label 656 01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:13,240 blah blah blah blah doesn't exist. 657 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:22,559 So, in this, you know, Traic's good, spreadsheets good. Uh, we need some kind 658 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:26,640 of backup and 659 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:32,880 but I'm still working on one. I turned in a few pickup loads of stuff to Nate 660 01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:40,400 that we marked off that he pulled his hair out over, which I would have too. 661 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:45,680 I had a DOS computer still there. 662 01:03:42,319 --> 01:03:53,920 probably a collector's item. But anyway, stuff like that. We've taken a ton of 663 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:59,280 stuff off that turned into Nate. But uh yeah, it's crazy. We need some backup 664 01:03:56,240 --> 01:04:04,559 system to where it, you know, if this one goes flat, we still got it somewhere 665 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:09,640 and [clears throat] all that. 666 01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:09,640 Yes. Thank you, 667 01:04:11,359 --> 01:04:19,920 manager. That Commission Commissioner K. 668 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:23,760 » Yeah. Just one other comment um on the those individuals that we're talking 669 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:28,000 about the solid waste and the leans and that as you well know if if 670 01:04:26,509 --> 01:04:31,200 [clears throat] the house or the dwelling is inhabitable, 671 01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:35,680 » yes, >> they have to pay it whether somebody 672 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:40,799 lives there or not. And um I don't know that all residents understand that, you 673 01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:46,400 know, and that's part of our ordinance of and and that's determined by our 674 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:51,760 assessor and um so they may have to follow up on that. Just a clarification 675 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:57,760 for those. When the assessor's office mails out notice of values, 676 01:04:54,640 --> 01:05:02,880 the classification is also protestable during that 30-day period. So, you could 677 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:07,200 contest the value or you could contest whether it's classified as residential 678 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:09,839 or non-residential property during that time. 679 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:12,960 » Thank you, Joe. You're welcome. >> Thank you. 680 01:05:11,359 --> 01:05:16,799 » Um, then the only other thing I have on my 681 01:05:14,559 --> 01:05:18,960 docket, I don't know, kind of mixing dockets here. So, 682 01:05:18,910 --> 01:05:22,640 [laughter] >> yeah, we're off. 683 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:26,960 » We're we're crossing, but I'll just go ahead and finish up. Um, I know we we 684 01:05:25,119 --> 01:05:31,119 had talked at the last meeting about the youth heartline building and I know you 685 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:36,799 just got back, Cheryl, but um would like to initiate uh an appraisal on that 686 01:05:34,079 --> 01:05:41,000 building because they are interested in purchasing it. 687 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,000 » Yeah. 688 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:48,319 » An appraisal on what building? >> The [clears throat] we called it the 689 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,880 annex. The one over here on Third Street, the youth heartline is 690 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:53,880 » Okay. >> Yeah. 691 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:09,039 That's all I have. >> Yes, sir. Thank you, 692 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:13,839 » Commissioner Trill. >> Yeah, I u bringing some issues with some 693 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:17,680 solid waste and I want to thank the county manager and and Julie for 694 01:06:16,079 --> 01:06:22,079 addressing those issues, especially out in Cavernis. 695 01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:26,160 Um yeah, you seen that they were they were bad. My phone was blowing up. It 696 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:30,319 was like back when Tri-State used to be here. What it [snorts] was like, but it 697 01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:36,160 was uh Thank you for cleaning all that up. Those rolloffs are now uh being 698 01:06:32,319 --> 01:06:39,760 removed since it's after Labor Day. Um I do want to spend send a special thank 699 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:44,960 you to all the volunteer firefighters. I've also recently heard from a lot of 700 01:06:41,359 --> 01:06:50,720 their families. Um, and I've I've I've passed this along to Nate and the county 701 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:54,319 manager as well of uh there's some morale, you know, I mean, there there's 702 01:06:52,799 --> 01:06:59,760 probably at least three two to three fires a day in Kfax County from 703 01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:03,599 lightning strike. Um, I asked Daniel if he could look into see if there's 704 01:07:01,359 --> 01:07:09,200 anything that we could possibly do as a county um for the volunteer 705 01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:16,079 firefighters. And then I also passed along an idea of uh to a couple state 706 01:07:13,599 --> 01:07:22,960 senators of maybe some kind of property tax incentive. Um not so you know enough 707 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:28,240 to to at least say thank you a little bit. 708 01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:34,880 Um on the 21st on Monday I will have to attend via Zoom. Uh I will be traveling 709 01:07:31,599 --> 01:07:39,839 that day.

Um, I was going to ask the county 714 01:07:56,079 --> 01:08:02,880 manager either the next meeting or meeting after, depending on what the 715 01:08:00,559 --> 01:08:07,760 agendas look like, if we could get a grant update, kind of any grants that we 716 01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:14,000 have outstanding, making sure we're drawing them down, uh, at least 717 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:18,400 quarterly. And then um I would like to ask Daniel, I mean I know it's probably 718 01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:22,560 already kind of said from earlier, but if we could take a look at the, you 719 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:27,199 know, the subdivisions and >> and all that other stuff, we could put 720 01:08:24,560 --> 01:08:31,040 that on your list to to get it cleaned up. So, 721 01:08:29,440 --> 01:08:35,679 » uh I can I can do that. Also, by the way, I do have uh I've been doing some 722 01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:39,120 research on the volunteer firefighters.

I appreciate 725 01:08:43,440 --> 01:08:49,319 you. That is all I had. 726 01:08:52,239 --> 01:08:58,880 » I guess uh one other thing, if the county manager 727 01:08:57,279 --> 01:09:03,520 knows if we opened it up to the pickle ball people, if we could open it back to 728 01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:07,600 the >> No, it's not not Hackisack, but the 729 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:13,359 » cornhole >> cornhole people. They will be here next 730 01:09:11,440 --> 01:09:14,319 meeting to make a request. >> Perfect. 731 01:09:13,759 --> 01:09:17,480 » Yes. >> Thank you. 732 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:29,520 » All right. Uh employee handbook was on my list. I was hoping to have everything 733 01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:36,319 by the end of this week, but y'all can have it to us by 734 01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:44,000 early next week. I guess that'll be all right. Uh, I want to start seeing 735 01:09:39,359 --> 01:09:49,520 quarterly lodgers tax financials and where we're at, what's owed, what's 736 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:56,000 going on. Uh, I had A71 on my list, but we 737 01:09:53,120 --> 01:10:03,679 discussed that prior. Uh, 738 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:09,520 I am putting together a deal on Rogers tax and 739 01:10:06,480 --> 01:10:17,040 I will send it to Daniel for him to send to y'all for ads attract so forth. 740 01:10:14,159 --> 01:10:23,679 Um, you know, we always include, and the 741 01:10:19,679 --> 01:10:30,480 state of New Mexico does too, that the only emergency services are police and 742 01:10:27,679 --> 01:10:37,120 fire. We're forgetting who we work with. our 743 01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:42,400 EMTs, our ambulance service, and I think I brought this up before, 744 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:48,960 the Association of Counties has taken this to legislature, 745 01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:56,400 but I think every county and village and city and volunteer 746 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:59,920 needs to also send a resolution to the state house to include them. 747 01:10:59,513 --> 01:11:04,320 » [clears throat] >> They are an intricral part of our 748 01:11:02,480 --> 01:11:12,239 community. Uh our fire department responds to 749 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:19,199 assist them in loading and helping. Uh we are primarily volunteers 750 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:26,880 and I have no problem with that. But they need assistance also and it's 751 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:33,120 becoming a larger and larger problem in every small county 752 01:11:30,159 --> 01:11:39,440 incor unincorporated and incorporated villages but Maxwell no longer has one I 753 01:11:37,199 --> 01:11:45,760 believe. uh you know 754 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:53,280 it's getting rough and the state in my opinion needs to step up and add them to 755 01:11:49,840 --> 01:12:00,480 the list of emergency services 756 01:11:55,600 --> 01:12:05,360 and I would like to see a push for that. Other than that, I got all mine answered 757 01:12:02,719 --> 01:12:14,640 ahead of time, but I would like to take a moment. Uh, we will not be in session 758 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:21,920 and everyone needs to remember 911. the police, the firefighters, the EMTs, 759 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:27,360 the ambulances, the military, and all the civilians that gave their lives 760 01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:34,320 trying to save people and to get them out. 761 01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:39,199 And I if I'd have thought sooner, we it should have been on the agenda. I 762 01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:44,960 apologize for that. But in closing, I would really like to 763 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:52,400 recognize all of those people and we're taking care of their country, 764 01:12:48,239 --> 01:12:57,000 their family, and their city.
