He's over yonder.

6
00:00:58,030 --> 00:01:00,250

Four new vehicles.

Okay. Number two would be last five of the Venice 75196. Number three AB

00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:38,150

35
00:03:23,770 --> 00:03:25,470
No emergency business

36
00:03:27,830 --> 00:03:28,660
public comment

37
00:03:28,660 --> 00:03:33,740
I like to make motion adjourn

38
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:46,760
I'll

39
00:03:52,460 --> 00:03:56,440
go ahead and current copy of the open meeting act I guess we're not free anymore

40
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,720
as opposed to the back wall near the entrance, the boardroom, and is available for review by

41
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,120
all citizens in attendance.

42
00:04:09,330 --> 00:04:09,890
Marty?

43
00:04:10,310 --> 00:04:10,390
Yep.

44
00:04:10,790 --> 00:04:11,470
O'Haleo?

45
00:04:11,970 --> 00:04:12,530
Brian?

46
00:04:12,890 --> 00:04:13,090
Present.

47
00:04:13,510 --> 00:04:13,730
Rick?

48
00:04:14,090 --> 00:04:14,330
Yes.

49
00:04:14,830 --> 00:04:15,110
Jeff?

50
00:04:15,370 --> 00:04:15,450
Here.

51
00:04:17,620 --> 00:04:19,840
So now would be the time for public comment.

52
00:04:20,260 --> 00:04:24,620
If there's anybody here that would like to comment on anything that is not on today's agenda,

53
00:04:24,620 --> 00:04:26,560
that. Now we'll do the time.

54
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,880
Seeing none. We'll go make a comment. You back go right

55
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:43,080
ahead. So the city of South Sue is taking public comment off of their agenda. So you

56
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:50,800
can't go to a city meeting and just get up and talk. And I think that's wrong. Yeah, I

57
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,020
agree. What's their purpose behind that? They don't want to be blindsided with issues.

58
00:04:55,020 --> 00:05:09,760
You know, I have no idea what their issue is, but I think it's wrong because now the constituents can't just come an era of you, and it might take five minutes, it might take a half an hour, but still you are elected to listen.

59
00:05:10,340 --> 00:05:14,440
No, I agree. I don't think I wouldn't foresee that happening here.

60
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:31,200
I think I'm not sure that I was working part of time at the time, but I think it has something to do with the big ox situation that some of the families who were impacted by what happened with big ox.

61
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:38,980
I guess they used the city council, took advantage of the city council's public comment to Harrison.

62
00:05:38,980 --> 00:05:39,000
So there's a lot of pressure.

63
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,480
I mean, it's been gone for a year or so.

64
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,960
And there's a process, right?

65
00:05:55,060 --> 00:05:58,500
Like, as a public elected official, there's a process that you follow with someone's

66
00:05:58,500 --> 00:06:03,940
not within line, it politely say, hey, you know, that's out of line, like, I'm likely asking

67
00:06:03,940 --> 00:06:04,400
to set the way.

68
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,540
Like, there's processes to handle all of it.

69
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:10,680
So I think that is the way you said, like, this is the way it is, right?

70
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:11,400
No, I agree.

71
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,940
There does be things they are...

72
00:06:14,940 --> 00:06:17,600
No, they're doing a way of freedom of speech.

73
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:18,400
Yeah.

74
00:06:19,260 --> 00:06:19,900
And it's wrong.

75
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:27,320
I think the speakers said that they're all right to force you left.

76
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:34,860
I think they were working on some kind of legislation to address that issue.

77
00:06:37,380 --> 00:06:43,740
I'm kind of speaking on the flood right now, but I know there were some some work done in the

78
00:06:43,740 --> 00:06:50,580
legislature on that, but I can't I cannot be exact details on it, but I agree with it.

79
00:06:51,760 --> 00:07:01,840
All right, consent agenda items. Approval of the previous minutes from August 31st, 2026. Approval of payroll claimed from

80
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:11,340
August 30th through September 12th, approval of payroll accounts payable claims and then approval of monthly account payable claims if any, which there was not.

81
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:20,760
I came in earlier and went through the budget, not the budget, the payroll and everything seems to be in order.

82
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,900
All right, I'd like to make a motion to approve Senator Jenner's A3D.

83
00:07:25,460 --> 00:07:26,180
Is that you?

84
00:07:29,620 --> 00:07:30,140
Prohalio?

85
00:07:30,580 --> 00:07:30,740
Yes.

86
00:07:31,060 --> 00:07:31,320
Brian?

87
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:31,680
Yes.

88
00:07:32,020 --> 00:07:32,180
Rick?

89
00:07:32,580 --> 00:07:32,820
Yes.

90
00:07:33,100 --> 00:07:33,280
Jeff?

91
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:33,680
Yes.

92
00:07:33,980 --> 00:07:34,200
Marty?

93
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:34,580
Yeah.

94
00:07:40,060 --> 00:07:40,860
New business.

95
00:07:41,420 --> 00:07:46,800
Kim Hanson, Dakota County Victim Assistance to provide an update on the program and status

96
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:47,420
of the grant.

97
00:07:50,020 --> 00:07:51,420
And I just want you guys to know.

98
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:51,980
Welcome.

99
00:07:52,740 --> 00:07:53,360
Thanks, girls.

100
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,200
Worked our tails off.

101
00:07:56,060 --> 00:07:58,040
And they've got numerous points.

102
00:08:01,300 --> 00:08:07,840
Okay, so Sheree, did you get those if they don't have that kind of earlier?

103
00:08:08,060 --> 00:08:08,720
So sorry about that.

104
00:08:09,020 --> 00:08:10,120
No, they don't have to.

105
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,400
So there should be two different spreadsheets there.

106
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,700
One is showing it's our fiscal year again, which is July to June.

107
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:21,040
So I know it's opposite of what you guys run.

108
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,140
That's how the state set it up now.

109
00:08:23,140 --> 00:08:29,120
So it's always a little off and we're always in between two different grants for three months.

110
00:08:29,540 --> 00:08:40,800
So if you need me to create a spreadsheet that shows October to September so that we can see

111
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,920
full on with both grants, I can do that if you want me to.

112
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:52,760
So there's one for 25 to 26, which is the grant here that we just finished.

113
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:57,740
And then there's the one where we're currently in, which is a different grant out.

114
00:09:09,140 --> 00:09:12,600
And how does the grant compare to the previous year's grant?

115
00:09:12,980 --> 00:09:17,780
We got a little bit more this time for starting in July of this year.

116
00:09:18,020 --> 00:09:18,620
How much more?

117
00:09:18,620 --> 00:09:25,940
to 62,428 last year it was 56 so it has gone up a little bit. There's still not a lot of funding

118
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:31,660
to be spread throughout the state but they're trying to do their best to be equal with the agencies

119
00:09:31,660 --> 00:09:37,780
that are applying for them. I don't think they've cut any agencies at all so they're trying to be

120
00:09:37,780 --> 00:09:39,620
fair as much as possible.

121
00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:52,420
Do you ever want me to do the October or September one so I can give it's not

122
00:09:52,420 --> 00:09:58,700
to be completely accurate because there's going to be an estimate on some of it. I don't think

123
00:09:58,700 --> 00:10:05,420
that's probably necessary. You can always get a hold of Nancy too. She can show you the difference

124
00:10:05,420 --> 00:10:10,720
and she's the one that does all of that on her end with the family thing between the two grant

125
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:16,220
numbers. She does all that stuff. She's usually really helpful with that. Do you happen to have the

126
00:10:16,220 --> 00:10:22,360
number, just your last grant year, the number of people that you deal with.

127
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:22,600
Yeah.

128
00:10:23,140 --> 00:10:24,440
Is that on here somewhere?

129
00:10:24,780 --> 00:10:24,920
No.

130
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:25,660
Okay.

131
00:10:25,820 --> 00:10:26,300
Yeah.

132
00:10:26,460 --> 00:10:28,100
Go ahead and give us the rundown on that.

133
00:10:28,220 --> 00:10:37,100
So at the end of June of this year, our total is 1374 clients, 190 of them are Spanish speaking.

134
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:40,420
She provided 424 Spanish speaking services.

135
00:10:41,220 --> 00:10:50,220
We met with 110 people in person, phone, mail, email, 1,408 contacts and then court updates

136
00:10:50,220 --> 00:10:57,160
we sent out 2473, that's not everything that we do obviously track everything for you.

137
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:06,720
And then so far this year from July 1st up until the 8th when we had our meeting with LAC last

138
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:14,640
week. We're at 493 clients, 33 years Spanish speaking, 77 Spanish services, 18 in person,

139
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:21,620
phone mail, email, 253, and then 538 court updates have gone out already. So we're keeping

140
00:11:21,620 --> 00:11:22,020
busy.

141
00:11:39,830 --> 00:11:44,150
Is that pretty steady or up or down from the previous year?

142
00:11:44,650 --> 00:11:50,730
It's pretty steady so far. Yeah. I think our largest year we had like, it's 18 hundred

143
00:11:53,850 --> 00:11:59,790
We're curious to see what happens once the casino is built and in blocks there, assuming there's a lot of us.

144
00:11:59,790 --> 00:12:02,130
Probably be all out there, because everybody be winning so much money.

145
00:12:02,690 --> 00:12:04,090
Yeah, that means a win all around.

146
00:12:04,570 --> 00:12:04,650
Yeah.

147
00:12:05,170 --> 00:12:05,910
Win, win, win.

148
00:12:07,010 --> 00:12:09,970
I mean, it's going to be, keep everybody extra busy.

149
00:12:10,890 --> 00:12:13,090
It could be, for sure, could make a difference.

150
00:12:13,790 --> 00:12:15,610
Any other questions about anything?

151
00:12:18,470 --> 00:12:19,830
Thank you.

152
00:12:35,450 --> 00:12:41,830
Chair's office requesting board approval of resolution 26C-017

153
00:12:42,630 --> 00:12:44,210
releasing pledge securities.

154
00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:50,950
After I did month end, there's no need to have this extra funding so they are free like

155
00:12:50,950 --> 00:12:53,350
using, there's no need to keep it all.

156
00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:54,050
Good.

157
00:12:55,250 --> 00:12:58,730
Make a motion to approve resolution 26C-017.

158
00:12:59,630 --> 00:13:00,130
Say it.

159
00:13:01,030 --> 00:13:01,370
All right.

160
00:13:01,850 --> 00:13:02,310
Thank you.

161
00:13:05,050 --> 00:13:05,590
Brian?

162
00:13:05,850 --> 00:13:05,990
Yes.

163
00:13:06,250 --> 00:13:06,550
Rick?

164
00:13:06,770 --> 00:13:07,030
Yes.

165
00:13:07,210 --> 00:13:07,430
Chef?

166
00:13:07,590 --> 00:13:07,810
Yes.

167
00:13:08,030 --> 00:13:08,270
Marty?

168
00:13:08,430 --> 00:13:08,570
Yeah.

169
00:13:08,770 --> 00:13:09,270
Rohelio?

170
00:13:09,490 --> 00:13:09,650
Yes.

171
00:13:16,970 --> 00:13:19,550
Board to approve or not approve.

172
00:13:20,470 --> 00:13:26,490
A special designation liquor license request for the Don Sports Bar and Grill for an event to

173
00:13:26,490 --> 00:13:32,530
be held October 10th at the rodeo arena at the fairgrounds. They've done that in

174
00:13:32,530 --> 00:13:38,410
the past. We're very well attended last year. So they're just asking for a

175
00:13:38,410 --> 00:13:45,190
liquor license to be able to sell during their event out at the former

176
00:13:45,190 --> 00:13:45,810
Atticat Park.

177
00:14:15,620 --> 00:14:16,700
We

178
00:14:18,870 --> 00:14:30,970
had 235.5 hours maintaining three hours of overtime, 3.5 hours of tree removal, 48

179
00:14:30,970 --> 00:14:38,230
48 hours, removing the culvert on 140 second street, 39 hours patching north

180
00:14:38,230 --> 00:14:45,150
blood road, 17 hours mowing, 83 calling gravel. We hauled 525 ton of

181
00:14:45,150 --> 00:14:53,910
product out on the road, and we hauled about 325 into the yard, and then Anderson

182
00:14:53,910 --> 00:14:59,790
and trucking, hauled them 3.41 and we talked to them about bringing in another 30 loads.

183
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:06,880
They're doing a $13 a ton, and it's a pretty good deal right now. The price of diesel.

184
00:15:09,580 --> 00:15:10,500
22 hours and

185
00:15:10,500 --> 00:15:17,860
signs, two hours, spraying some weeds, and then some greeting concerns on 155th Street and 175th.

186
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:25,840
I talked to Chad today about if Northrop Road is ready to put the paper off for bid, and he said

187
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,760
But he's out of the office for the rest of the week

188
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,080
and he'll have it done on Monday.

189
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,220
So we'll go forward with that.

190
00:15:32,060 --> 00:15:33,860
Just getting a bit out there.

191
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,300
Getting a bit out, yep, yep, yep.

192
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:36,940
So we'll try and get that here.

193
00:15:37,460 --> 00:15:43,220
Yep, there's like, I don't know what he said.

194
00:15:43,380 --> 00:15:46,140
Last meeting, how many square yards he come up with,

195
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,460
but he figured it's about $170, $80,000

196
00:15:49,260 --> 00:15:51,600
to go in and get some of them patching them for winter.

197
00:15:52,220 --> 00:15:54,820
So I thought there was a couple contractors

198
00:15:54,820 --> 00:15:56,920
that were pretty interested, had the time to do it,

199
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:05,100
at this fall. For M Avenue, do you want me to talk about that now, or mail, or not M Avenue,

200
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:11,400
200 streets, with Andy's requests, we did get a letter from Norma.

201
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:12,900
We just will talk about it now, I guess.

202
00:16:13,140 --> 00:16:19,980
Yeah, okay. And so, basically, he was saying, if he wants to do this, make sure all the expenses

203
00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:25,440
on him and have a contract in place so he knows what his responsibilities are

204
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:30,440
and that he's responsible for all the costs you know and then

205
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,520
painting it have it standards engineer stamp on the designs shoulders

206
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,340
quarter one slow pavement marking seeding just different things like that

207
00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:45,180
make sure there's a contract in place I did talk to I did talk to Andy today and

208
00:16:45,180 --> 00:16:51,900
And I did talk to Steve Harris also, so I will let him know that if it would go forward,

209
00:16:52,020 --> 00:16:57,160
it would be based on everything that you just talked about, also a drainage plan.

210
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,500
And then the signage, we would do obviously, but yeah.

211
00:17:04,660 --> 00:17:08,280
And you said he would stay away from M Avenue, about a hundred feet.

212
00:17:08,420 --> 00:17:11,200
How does he plan on going past his driveway then?

213
00:17:11,340 --> 00:17:12,960
He said approximately 400 feet.

214
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,980
I know at one time he talked about taking it up that hill, but he's not going to now.

215
00:17:16,220 --> 00:17:22,500
So I would say that he would take it to his place, probably not much further than that.

216
00:17:22,780 --> 00:17:24,760
He's talking about 400 foot area.

217
00:17:25,100 --> 00:17:28,280
So, you know, we still have to do maintenance on it.

218
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:33,980
So we would have to go out there to finish maintenance on it.

219
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:40,520
I know I didn't talk to Dean, but they like to use different blades for hard surfaces, post

220
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,140
to grab a light can't imagine running two pieces equipment out there just to do that short

221
00:17:45,140 --> 00:17:45,600
stretch.

222
00:17:46,140 --> 00:17:47,760
So we're going to be right there.

223
00:17:47,900 --> 00:17:48,720
I'm having it anyway.

224
00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:49,420
Yeah.

225
00:17:49,780 --> 00:17:50,800
Oh, yeah.

226
00:17:50,820 --> 00:17:51,680
I forgot about that.

227
00:17:53,140 --> 00:17:53,620
Yeah.

228
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:55,180
Nice paving there.

229
00:17:55,420 --> 00:17:55,440
Right?

230
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,220
So, yeah.

231
00:17:58,820 --> 00:17:59,020
Yeah.

232
00:18:00,020 --> 00:18:04,740
We'll reach back out to him and see if he's willing to pay for that.

233
00:18:05,020 --> 00:18:09,440
You know, and we have all the proper paperwork.

234
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:13,580
I would say there's probably not a reason that he couldn't.

235
00:18:13,580 --> 00:18:14,540
I don't know, probably.

236
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,740
But can be able to drop the contract then for that?

237
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,360
I don't know when.

238
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,300
Maybe he'd be responsible for the cost of it.

239
00:18:29,420 --> 00:18:31,480
Maybe he would have to drop the contract.

240
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:37,020
I'll float that by and see if that works for him.

241
00:18:37,020 --> 00:18:44,580
Because he's going to have also get in contact with the engineer and all of those things so yeah maybe yeah put the

242
00:18:44,580 --> 00:18:54,560
Responsibility on him. Yeah, then we can review it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, fix what we don't like. Yeah, work forward to it.

243
00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:04,240
Okay. All right. Oh, sorry. I had one one one call. Real nice guy. He just said on Oakdale near Davis's.

244
00:19:06,220 --> 00:19:09,760
that he said they've been out there but it's really flat so it's starting to hold

245
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,800
water he said just to think it could get a little crown on it it would make a big

246
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,900
difference he said there's pretty good gravel on it but it just got flattened out

247
00:19:16,900 --> 00:19:25,060
and it's holding water and the guys are going back to it yeah yeah so two weeks

248
00:19:25,060 --> 00:19:33,120
we'll be going back. I did see. Anything else? Not right off. Thank you.

249
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:38,480
Commissioner

250
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:39,260
committee reports.

251
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:09,300
region meeting last Friday. Some information about the land use committee and they'll

252
00:20:09,300 --> 00:20:17,840
be doing a webinar here coming up. We'll satisfy the two-hour education commitment that

253
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,860
we're supposed to do. Okay. Well, they'll probably email it to each member.

254
00:20:30,860 --> 00:20:31,540
I would

255
00:20:31,540 --> 00:20:37,700
If you want to do some fall wall, I wish that it's a nice area.

256
00:20:38,260 --> 00:20:41,860
Definitely cowboy country, my word to them, I've been a word.

257
00:20:44,060 --> 00:20:48,640
The one thing on the Commissioner Committee report, our old business, I did get a call

258
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,580
from Joe,

259
00:20:52,700 --> 00:20:54,120
Joe Niel.

260
00:20:54,660 --> 00:20:57,980
And his concern, not a concern, something that they've been talking about at their meetings

261
00:20:57,980 --> 00:21:04,300
two is you know with everybody with room with regard to data centers they're

262
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:07,940
just starting to look at some things and I know a lot of communities have

263
00:21:07,940 --> 00:21:11,640
gone with a one-year moratorium where they're investigating and trying to put

264
00:21:12,260 --> 00:21:17,380
things together so he was going to gather information and then bring it to the

265
00:21:17,380 --> 00:21:21,700
board to see what we think about that. We need to get going before it. We need to get

266
00:21:21,700 --> 00:21:26,700
educated on it because there's in the land use we put some stuff in there

267
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:30,080
suggestions on like best practices and some things that other people have done

268
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,240
across the country. I think it was Karnie who's currently working on it right

269
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:39,360
now. Karnie actually I was working out that way. I know people are upset but I

270
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:42,660
also have been looking at the like what they put in place and I mean they're not

271
00:21:42,660 --> 00:21:46,700
horrible regulations and basically what we've talked about in that land use

272
00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:51,780
committee meeting that's a really good way for I'm not saying I want it here but

273
00:21:51,780 --> 00:21:56,060
if you know it comes down to it there are ways in which we can like limit it so

274
00:21:56,060 --> 00:21:59,460
that it's not. It doesn't have all the negative impacts. Yeah, I don't know what they did with

275
00:21:59,460 --> 00:22:03,420
the solar firm. They talked about that a lot too. They've just come back from the national

276
00:22:03,420 --> 00:22:10,480
and they go, meaning, they'll build field view. And they said, well, they'll build, they'll

277
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:15,020
he said, in whole county, even with the windmills, he said, you would, he's, people are coming in.

278
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,940
You can request a lot of things. So he said, what's for the wind towers out there in

279
00:22:18,940 --> 00:22:24,900
whole county? He said, they rebuilt 100, he said 180 miles of gravel road at their expense

280
00:22:24,900 --> 00:22:34,480
to the county. They were talking about the national meeting was in Louisiana. They said that

281
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,800
Louisiana is looking at data center in the particular county down there. The average teacher

282
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:46,960
salary is $48,000. The data center came in to give each teacher in the county a $50,000 bonus.

283
00:22:47,660 --> 00:22:55,980
and then they talk about a lot of county Virginia which is poison and there is they are a tax zero county

284
00:22:55,980 --> 00:22:59,780
there is no property tax in Lawton County because of the data centers.

285
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:00,720
I know there is.

286
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:05,500
And the cheapest electricity rates in the country, all because of data centers.

287
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,340
So I mean there's a lot of good they can come out of the lot of stuff.

288
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:16,180
And then that's what they, you know, they push do is you know, don't be afraid to make some requests.

289
00:23:16,180 --> 00:23:23,100
Yeah, and things of, you know, they're gonna pay for this and that yeah, I know it's not like Joe is afraid of that

290
00:23:23,100 --> 00:23:26,560
But he just thinks it's something that we need to definitely have on our radar and

291
00:23:27,420 --> 00:23:32,460
In the data centers else not anything to be afraid of but like you say it's a learning process for I mean

292
00:23:32,460 --> 00:23:37,700
They've been building them in droves out east for a lot of years, but like everything is at spread's west

293
00:23:37,700 --> 00:23:39,720
It's just something that we'll have to look at and deal

294
00:23:46,100 --> 00:23:50,560
And I told him about the car you think too because I was just watching some local news out there

295
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,000
and had that they had rolled that out and the some of the provisions they had in there.

296
00:23:55,140 --> 00:23:56,300
So I said that might be a template.

297
00:23:56,300 --> 00:23:57,620
I can help work off it, too.

298
00:23:59,020 --> 00:23:59,840
I think it's a bit mine.

299
00:24:00,380 --> 00:24:01,300
It was a bit.

300
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:01,860
It's a bit mine center.

301
00:24:02,780 --> 00:24:04,000
That they're for Bernie or.

302
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:05,780
It was just sort of.

303
00:24:06,700 --> 00:24:08,160
But I mean, if it's already there.

304
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:08,880
Yeah.

305
00:24:09,420 --> 00:24:10,620
It takes a lot of power there.

306
00:24:10,820 --> 00:24:12,760
I mean, guarantee a bit pointing mine.

307
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,280
As much as I know about it.

308
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:16,140
Maybe they can.

309
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,720
But so does it, they can.

310
00:24:26,140 --> 00:24:33,000
Yeah male or emergency business I'm just a reminder that the joint public

Everybody else is welcome.

315
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:50,560
And the last one.

318
00:24:58,660 --> 00:25:00,360
in reference to,

319
00:25:01,620 --> 00:25:04,940
there having some meetings coming up too that are addressing some things.

320
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:05,940
No, not even really.

321
00:25:13,990 --> 00:25:16,210
Yeah, after six, that's what it was.

322
00:25:16,930 --> 00:25:17,130
Yeah.

323
00:25:17,470 --> 00:25:18,770
It was six, five more.

324
00:25:19,110 --> 00:25:20,510
No, no, six or five that,

325
00:25:20,510 --> 00:25:32,410
The pink card meeting, 6.05, next Wednesday, that's the same day D.N. is having a, D.N.

326
00:25:33,350 --> 00:25:38,770
Fire Hall is having a go-and-a-way deal. Emergency manners leave and we're advertising for that presently.

327
00:25:38,890 --> 00:25:40,470
It sounds like there's quite a bit of interest in that.

328
00:25:40,730 --> 00:25:47,430
There's an email sent out this morning about it, about splitting the cost of it between, like, I don't know.

329
00:25:47,430 --> 00:25:53,570
If we did it with a different county, etc. Yeah, it's not unusual to have an emergency manager cover more than one county

330
00:25:53,570 --> 00:25:57,430
I did some checking around the state the gallon North forks. She has three counties

331
00:25:57,430 --> 00:26:00,990
So it's is something that is available to do so

332
00:26:01,650 --> 00:26:04,710
We'll probably it probably depends on the candidate. We decide to hire

333
00:26:09,030 --> 00:26:12,590
Yeah, yeah, a listing listing a job description

334
00:26:14,790 --> 00:26:16,330
She's gonna put it in the star

335
00:26:17,430 --> 00:26:20,910
And then we'll run that and then we'll go for that.

336
00:26:21,350 --> 00:26:23,350
But I know just word of mouth is three or four people

337
00:26:23,350 --> 00:26:24,410
that are asked it anyway.

338
00:26:24,850 --> 00:26:26,670
Isn't that something we can shift up the county

339
00:26:26,670 --> 00:26:27,190
in terms of?

340
00:26:28,930 --> 00:26:31,310
Yeah, a road department.

341
00:26:31,890 --> 00:26:34,650
Actually, I do know that Dixon County President

342
00:26:34,650 --> 00:26:36,190
lead their head of their emergency manor

343
00:26:36,190 --> 00:26:37,590
and is also the head of the road department.

344
00:26:43,330 --> 00:26:46,450
Yeah, yeah. Okay, uh,

345
00:26:48,550 --> 00:26:53,970
other than that, uh, did hear that the new typo got ran into yesterday.

346
00:26:54,430 --> 00:26:59,290
Yeah, I saw pictures on it. Uh, on, out on the, with her on the way to, uh,

347
00:26:59,290 --> 00:27:02,990
Yeah, they ran down. Just about to the day of Academy. Was it really the same Grand Island?

348
00:27:03,350 --> 00:27:06,010
Yeah. No, he was in his phone.

349
00:27:06,510 --> 00:27:07,810
No, it wasn't. He got T-bone.

350
00:27:07,810 --> 00:27:13,130
And it was like the tail end of the car, too, was the, yeah, the tail end of the car, so.

351
00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:14,190
The new tail.

352
00:27:14,610 --> 00:27:14,910
Yeah.

353
00:27:16,190 --> 00:27:23,390
A week ago, I was over at my truck shop and I was working in there, on a truck, and all

354
00:27:23,390 --> 00:27:28,870

355
00:27:28,870 --> 00:27:34,130
suitcase with right behind me, didn't ever stop, I think, it wasn't even the one that got

356
00:27:34,130 --> 00:27:35,770
to the apartment house.

357
00:27:36,030 --> 00:27:36,330
Oh, yeah.

358
00:27:42,250 --> 00:27:51,830
I also, I brought up last meeting, Rick, that they did get done with it, looking into

359
00:27:51,830 --> 00:27:56,410
the deal from the accountability, and there was no wrong doing on anyone's behalf.

360
