» Yes. All right. Moving on to items of
business. We're going to consider for

21
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:17,520
approval the fiscal year 2026 adult
year-end outcome report. Dustin,

22
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:21,759
» good morning, commissioners.
>> Morning.

23
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:27,119
» Yeah. First this morning, we have our
fiscal year 26 adult year-end outcomes

24
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:33,119
for your approval. Um, I'll try and be
as efficient as I can with these. Um, we

25
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:38,479
had three goals for uh the adult side of
our operation for fiscal year 26. Uh the

26
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:43,040
first was that we will offer individual
skill training with direct practice with

27
00:01:40,479 --> 00:01:48,159
some cognitive behavioral programming.
Um there's quarterly uh updates and

28
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:52,240
KDOC's feedback on each of those
throughout the um throughout the year.

29
00:01:50,399 --> 00:01:58,640
I'll just touch briefly on the end of
year progress. Um for the fiscal year,

30
00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:06,000
we tracked uh the closure of 169 cases
on our adult side. Um,

31
00:02:01,759 --> 00:02:10,560
we had an agency success rate of 78.7%.
And again, for our adult side, our adult

32
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:16,480
probationers, if they do not get revoked
and sent to prison, that's considered a

33
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:21,520
success. And so 78.7% is about four or
5% higher than we've seen in the

34
00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:26,560
previous several years. Um, so we're
pretty encouraged by that. Um, one of

35
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:30,720
the things that we focused on heavily
for the past couple of years was our use

36
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:35,360
of incentives. And so we're
incentivizing our clients more just

37
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:40,319
through some verbal praise, through some
small financial things like gift cards,

38
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:45,440
uh, and some more tailored things that
will help clients just realize that when

39
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:51,280
they do good, they get good in return.
Um, so for the uh closures during the

40
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:56,400
year, we documented 1,449
incentives that we used with those cases

41
00:02:53,440 --> 00:03:01,599
that were closed uh compared to 306
sanctions that we had to issue. And so

42
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:07,360
that's a ratio of 4.7 incentives to
every sanction. Um the goal from KDOC

43
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:11,840
and some nationwide research is uh 4:1.
And so we met and exceeded that ratio

44
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:14,640
for the year. Uh again, something that's
pretty encouraging. It's something we

45
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:20,239
had focused on pretty hard for the last
couple years and hopefully with that

46
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:26,080
first year of uh improved success. We'll
see that for years to come. Um we're

47
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:30,080
also offering um some in-house cognitive
behavioral programming. One of the ones

48
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:35,680
that we're doing is called decision
points. Uh we have tracked 304 service

49
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:41,599
hours that we delivered to 24 different
adult clients over the year. Um we had

50
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:45,840
15 successful completions from that. Uh
that's a program where clients come in

51
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:50,640
for about an hour and a half a week and
they really work on those decisions that

52
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:54,799
they've made and how to change those
decisions and make better ones in the

53
00:03:52,239 --> 00:03:58,560
future. Uh so seeing 15 successful
completions in our first year of doing

54
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:03,120
that. It's pretty encouraging as well.
Um we also have some job readiness

55
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:09,200
skills that we're uh delivering to
clients and we had uh 15 successful

56
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:13,760
completions from that as well. So that's
our first goal. I'll pause for any

57
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:18,320
questions if you have any on that goal.
Otherwise, I'll move on to the second

58
00:04:15,519 --> 00:04:26,160
goal, which was um that use of
incentives for uh the fiscal year. Uh

59
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:31,680
throughout the year, we uh tracked 3,818
incentives that we use compared to 378

60
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:34,960
sanctions. And that's a ratio of 10 to1.
So again, we're really focusing heavily

61
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:39,280
on just making sure that our clients
know that when they do well, we see them

62
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:43,040
and that we want to encourage that
positive pro-social behavior from our

63
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:47,919
clients.
Um, verbal praise is the one that we use

64
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:52,720
most often, just saying, "Hey, good job.
Thank you for showing up. It's good to

65
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:57,680
see you. Um, nice work there." Uh, and
then our last goal for the year was

66
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:02,960
um making sure that we're all involved
in service delivery in motivational

67
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:07,120
interviewing. uh epics or um effective
practices in correctional settings uh

68
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:12,800
and some other evidence-based tools and
skills. What we're doing there is we

69
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:17,840
have a monthly uh session with all of
our staff where we sit down together and

70
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,960
we go over a particular evidence-based
practice or skill. And so every month is

71
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,759
a new skill and after a couple years of
doing so, we'll go back to the beginning

72
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:30,639
and do it again. So we'll always be
refreshing these skills with our staff.

73
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:34,960
Um the staff feedback on that has been
pretty positive so far. Uh we had a

74
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:39,759
recent experience towards the end of the
year where one of the staff that um went

75
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:44,320
through one of these sessions uh took
that session and that skill and used it

76
00:05:42,479 --> 00:05:48,000
immediately with the client afterwards
and both the client and the officer

77
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:51,600
really grew from that experience and
they both learned something and used it

78
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:56,800
in their daily lives. So it was pretty
cool to see something like that just

79
00:05:53,039 --> 00:06:01,440
play out in the real world. Um so um
briefly that is our outcomes for the

80
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:05,120
year. Uh those were approved by the
advisory board at our last meeting. Uh

81
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:10,440
but I'm happy to stand for any questions
you might have on our adult operations

82
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,440
for the year.

83
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:19,600
» We'll be neat to see as it goes further
along how the results are.

84
00:06:17,919 --> 00:06:25,840
» Yeah, one year is great, but I want to
see sustained success, you know.

85
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:28,479
» All right. And I guess
does anybody want to make a motion for

86
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,199
the
>> We still have one more principal. He's

87
00:06:29,919 --> 00:06:35,039
not done. Are you done?
>> I didn't know if he was going to do them

88
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:37,440
all. We were going to vote on each one.
>> No, just the whole thing as

89
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:39,520
» the whole thing is okay.
>> Yeah. Yeah.

90
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,759
» Adult because I thought there was
juvenile too.

91
00:06:40,479 --> 00:06:44,639
» Juvenile's next.
>> Okay. Not done with the adults. Sorry.

92
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:50,000
» No.
>> Uh but I would um need a motion to

93
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:53,199
approve the adult uh year end outcomes.
>> Yeah, that's what you're asking.

94
00:06:51,039 --> 00:06:55,199
» Yeah, I was asking for the adult year
end outcome.

95
00:06:53,919 --> 00:06:57,120
» That's what I thought. I'll make a
motion.

96
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,160
» Second.
>> Wait a minute.

97
00:06:59,199 --> 00:07:01,520
» Commissioner Ray,
>> yes.

98
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,720
» Commissioner Harris,
>> yes.

99
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:04,240
» Commissioner Dickinson,
>> yes.

100
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,440
» Commissioner Stolemire,
>> yes.

101
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:11,199
» Chair Matter,
>> yes. All right. Now, the juvenile.

102
00:07:07,759 --> 00:07:16,880
» Now, juvenile. Um, we had the same basic
goals uh and action steps for our

103
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:20,800
juvenile side. The year- end outcomes
are going to be a little different. Um,

104
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:24,479
like I said with the adults, our success
rate there is tied to whether or not

105
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:28,880
they were revoked and sent to prison.
For our juvenile offenders, that is

106
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:34,319
slightly different. We're looking at um
did they reach the end of their

107
00:07:31,039 --> 00:07:38,639
supervision term with no pending charges
um engaged in treatment and those sorts

108
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:44,160
of things. So, uh for the end of our
fiscal year, we tracked nine cases among

109
00:07:41,599 --> 00:07:48,800
eight youth. So, slightly smaller
population there. And that's actually

110
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:53,840
down from years past as well, which is
um hopefully trending in the right in

111
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:59,120
the right direction. Um of those, all
eight youth were assessed as high risk

112
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:03,919
when they started supervision and four
were then uh assessed as low risk at the

113
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:08,319
end, three as moderate risk, and one
remained high risk. So that speaks to

114
00:08:06,639 --> 00:08:13,919
the work that we're doing week in and
week out with those youth that we're

115
00:08:10,639 --> 00:08:18,560
lowering that risk for them to reaffend.
uh only one of the eight youth was

116
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:23,199
unsuccessful. So that's a pretty high
success rate where in years past we had

117
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:29,199
had a success rate for our youth around
40 to 50%. So pretty encouraging there.

118
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:34,560
Again, I'd love to see that sa sustained
success too, but uh I'll take this first

119
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:38,959
year of that. Um
we are also offering that decision

120
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:42,880
points program to our youth except we
don't have the number of youth obviously

121
00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:47,040
to have a full group. uh we would need
four or five youth in uh in a group to

122
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:50,880
do that to Fidelity. So we're doing
decision points individually. Uh and

123
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:57,040
we're also doing that job readiness
stuff with our youth as well. Uh so we

124
00:08:53,839 --> 00:09:01,200
have um seen some encouraging things in
the first year of doing that in house as

125
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:07,200
well. I'll pause there if there's any
questions on the difference between our

126
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:12,959
juvenile offenders and our adult. What
like in our county like the age the

127
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:19,040
average age for the youth or
>> the youth that we've been supervising

128
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:22,399
lately are tending more to be like 18 19
because when they pick up a juvenile

129
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:26,880
offense they have to be under 18 to be
deemed a juvenile offender but yet they

130
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:31,440
might be 18 or 19 when they come on
supervision because of the length of the

131
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:35,600
court process. So our juvenile offenders
have been older than in years past.

132
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:38,080
Usually they're around 15, 16, 17.
>> Okay, that's what I didn't know.

133
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:42,640
» It seems from this that you're making
more progress on the juvenile. Maybe

134
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:45,920
it's just the kids you have, but or
maybe uh who knows?

135
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:51,440
» Who knows? Again, I want to see sustain
things, but uh it's encouraging to see

136
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:54,160
that um that number of youth or that
percentage of youth completed

137
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,519
successfully and met the things that
they needed to meet.

138
00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:01,200
» Cool.
>> Uh for our second goal, again, we're

139
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:07,600
tracking those incentives and sanctions.
for uh the fiscal year that encompassed

140
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:12,399
18 youth. We tracked 82 incentives uh to
23 sanctions. That's a ratio of 3.6

141
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:16,560
incentives to every sanction. So, pretty
close to that 4:1 ratio that I mentioned

142
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:20,320
before. Um youth are just a little
different. Um but one thing that we are

143
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:24,880
doing with the youth differently than
the adults is that we are tailoring some

144
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:28,480
things differently to them. Uh and
finding out what the youth are really

145
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:33,760
interested in. I know for one of our
juvenile offenders, um, a big thing

146
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,959
that, uh, she would have benefited from
is a paint set. And so that was

147
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:42,160
something that she could work towards if
she was meeting all of her objectives.

148
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:46,560
Um, the officer, uh, got her with our
funds a paint set to say, hey, you know,

149
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:51,680
good job on meeting all of these and we,
uh, we see the work that you put in, so

150
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:56,160
here's your incentive for doing so. So
just tailoring things to the individual

151
00:10:53,680 --> 00:11:02,720
youth instead of just a you know generic
gift card somewhere. So those individual

152
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:07,839
things really do uh show some interest
in each person. And then for our last

153
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:12,800
goal for our fiscal year again same
thing as the uh adults were doing those

154
00:11:10,399 --> 00:11:16,800
um monthly sessions on evidence-based
practices. Uh, one thing that we do

155
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:20,480
differently with the juvenile side is
that um, we're doing some things

156
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:25,920
individually with the one juvenile
officer that we have and both the

157
00:11:22,959 --> 00:11:30,399
officer, the uh, supervisor and myself
all go through some statewide quality

158
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:35,920
assurance. So, we will upload some uh,
meetings and some assessments to uh, the

159
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:39,839
folks who are contracted by KDOC to do
quality assurance and then we're all

160
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:45,600
rated on how we're doing. And so we get
quality assurance every quarter from uh

161
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:50,480
from the state. So
again, very encouraging stuff. I think

162
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:54,079
it's u a year of looking at what we've
been doing for the past couple of years

163
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:59,040
and seeing some some increase and some
success from that. And so um hopefully

164
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,880
that's something that we can sustain in
the future. But uh it's pretty

165
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:08,360
encouraging to see right now. I'm happy
to stand for any questions you might

166
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,360
have on our juvenile side.

167
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:17,160
Make a motion to approve.

168
00:12:18,959 --> 00:12:26,560

175
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:44,040
» All right. Excuse me. Consider we're
moving on to consider the approval of

176
00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:44,040
reszoning application 2606-000081

177
00:12:44,079 --> 00:12:50,959
Duncan to reszone approximately 20 acres
from the A2 transitional agricultural

178
00:12:48,959 --> 00:12:56,800
district to the RE residential estate
district. Nathan,

179
00:12:54,399 --> 00:13:02,000
» uh the property we're looking at uh
located at 764 Thomas Road. As stated,

180
00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:06,160
it's approximately 20 acres. The
applicant's proposing to split that to

181
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:12,000
take the whole property into our RE
district. Uh they're proposing uh two

182
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:16,160
tracks, one 13 acres, the other would be
7 acres that would maintain the existing

183
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:21,839
residence.
Um there was a letter um in your packet

184
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:26,399
from Douglas County Rule Water 5 stating
that water's available uh for the newly

185
00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:32,240
created track. It'd be large enough to
accommodate in ground or lagoon,

186
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:36,320
whichever the soil profile would allow.
Uh, we sent notice to seven surrounding

187
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:40,880
property owners. Staff did not receive
any comments for or against and nobody

188
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:44,920
appeared at the public hearing. Planning
Commission did recommend approval,

189
00:13:50,079 --> 00:13:54,600
» questions,

» All right, moving on to the next one.
and consider the approval of reszoning

198
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,760
application 267-0084

199
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:29,279
pal to reszone approximately 20 acres
from the A2 transitional

200
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:33,600
to the re residential estate
you have there

201
00:14:30,079 --> 00:14:40,000
» all right uh property is at 1390 Osborne
Road uh they're proposing uh to take the

202
00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:46,160
20 acres zone it to RE to create two
lots um the applicant's proposing a

203
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:50,639
5acre lot which would allow for them to
build a new residence. The existing home

204
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:55,519
would sit on the 15 acres and uh would
go to a family member. Um this one's a

205
00:14:53,839 --> 00:15:01,279
little unique. We try to usually want to
keep nice straight lines. We do have a

206
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:05,440
little jog there. Um the existing home
has a finished basement and the sewer is

207
00:15:03,519 --> 00:15:10,639
all coming directly under the footing
for the basement. So, the septic had to

208
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:14,480
extend further and that little jog in
that property is to make sure we meet

209
00:15:12,079 --> 00:15:19,839
our setbacks for the lateral lines of
the existing home. Um, rural water is

210
00:15:17,519 --> 00:15:25,839
not available in that area. There was a
letter from Evans Energy um stating that

211
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:30,240
there's ample water to drill a well and
they don't see any effect on surrounding

212
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:33,920
property owners by doing that.
Um, five acres would accommodate in

213
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:38,480
ground or lagoon, whatever the soil
profile would allow. uh sent notice to

214
00:15:36,959 --> 00:15:42,079
the nine surrounding property owners.
Staff did not receive any pro comments

215
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:48,279
for or against and nobody appeared at
the public hearing. Planning Commission

216
00:15:44,639 --> 00:15:48,279
does recommend approval.

217
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:54,519
» Make a motion to approve reszoning
application 2607-0084.

218
00:15:55,199 --> 00:15:59,120
» Second.
>> Commissioner Salmire,

219
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,320
» yes.
>> Commissioner Ray,

220
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,600
» yes.
>> Commissioner Harris,

221
00:16:01,279 --> 00:16:02,959
» yes.

» yes.
>> Chair meter,

223
00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:12,639
» yes. All right. Um, next, consider
approval of a reszoning and special use

224
00:16:08,639 --> 00:16:18,160
permit application 2607-0086
green to reszone approximately 2 acres

225
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:23,519
from the R3A single family residential
threeact 3acre district to the RE

226
00:16:20,639 --> 00:16:27,440
residential estate district and for the
approval of a special use permit to

227
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:32,560
allow for the operation of an on-site
and mobile repair, storage, and sale of

228
00:16:29,839 --> 00:16:36,480
trailers in the RE residential estate
district.

229
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:40,560
uh this property. Obviously, there's two
things, the resoning and the special

230
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:44,320
use. Um I'll kind of present both of
them real quick. If you have questions

231
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:47,759
pertaining to or special use, we can
address those. Um but then there'll be a

232
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:55,839
motion at the end to accept the
reszoning and separately the SUP. Um the

233
00:16:52,880 --> 00:17:02,800
properties at 4499 Stafford Terrace and
4515 Stafford Terrace. Uh 4515 Stafford

234
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:07,280
Terrace is approximately 2 acres. Um the
applicant's proposing to do a boundary

235
00:17:04,559 --> 00:17:12,480
line adjustment and merge that with the
44.99 Stafford Terrace to create an

236
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:19,199
approximately 9 acre track. The
reasonzoning would bring the 2acre um

237
00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:23,439
lot into our regs, which currently it's
not. Um,

238
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:27,679
and then along with that, the applicants
requesting the SUP. Um, they're

239
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:32,160
requesting to move their business
currently located in Spring Hill to the

240
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:36,640
Wallsville area closer to their home.
Um, they're proposing to build a new

241
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:43,600
building to allow uh they do trailer
repair for um farmers a also some

242
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:48,960
commercial. they will operate um
dispatch some mobile um employees out to

243
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:54,960
go to on sites with the inter modal and
things to fix trailers as well. Um

244
00:17:51,679 --> 00:18:00,799
planning commission um did on page two
they had nine conditions that they um

245
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:05,440
recommended if it was approved.
Basically, that gets into how the lot's

246
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:10,400
going to be maintained, weed-free,
grass-free, lighting,

247
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:17,679
um, and then also limited some operating
hours for that as well.

248
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:21,600
Uh, we sent um 12 surrounding property
owners and along with the city of

249
00:18:19,679 --> 00:18:26,080
Wellsville. We did not receive any
comments for or against it. One person

250
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:31,440
did appear at the public hearing in
favor of both the SUP and the resoning.

251
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:36,760
uh planning commission did recommend
approval for both the resoning and the

252
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,760
SUP.

253
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:46,240
» Any questions regarding this?
We can start with the resoning first.

254
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:50,000
I like taking a small piece and make it
bigger. So, just get it into our

255
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:55,919
compliance.
Great.

256
00:18:52,559 --> 00:18:59,640
the reszoning first.
>> Get back to it.

257
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:09,120
» I'll make a
reason.

258
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:17,600
I'll take a uh
approval of application 26070086

259
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:22,240
green 2 acres to 3A.
>> That's his motion. Is there a second?

260
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,600
» Second.
Commissioner Raymire,

261
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,039
» yes.
>> Commissioner Harris,

262
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,640
» yes.
>> Commissioner Dickinson,

263
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,080
» yes.
>> Commissioner Sutmer,

264
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,679
» yes.
>> Chair meter,

265
00:19:28,799 --> 00:19:33,679
» yes.
>> So, now on to just the approval of the

266
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:38,640
special use permit to allow the
operation of the on-site mobile repair,

267
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:42,880
storage, and sale of trailers. And I
guess initially with trailers, I was

268
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:46,320
thinking campers and not, you know,
trailers behind.

269
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:51,280
» Yeah. Is it going to be repair? Uh, it
did mention that maybe future use, they

270
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:54,720
would offer some for sale as well. Um,
but primarily initially is going to be

271
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,280
the repair side. We added that in the
SUP just so we don't have to go back and

272
00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:03,559
amend it.
>> Yeah.

273
00:19:58,799 --> 00:20:03,559
Any questions on the special use permit?

274
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:09,600
» Right. Is there a motion to approve or
to?

275
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:13,360
» Motion to approve.
>> Second.

276
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,880
» Commissioner Harris.
>> Yes.

277
00:20:13,679 --> 00:20:16,400
» Commissioner Dickinson.
>> Yes.

278
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,600
» Commissioner Stomire.
>> Yes.

279
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,720
» Commissioner Ray.
>> Yes.

280
00:20:17,919 --> 00:20:22,160
» Chair Met.
>> Yes.

281
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:27,840
All right. Thank you.
All right. Moving on to consider for

282
00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:33,440
approval the purchase of a used 2020
shouldermaster paver model SM2100 from

283
00:20:31,039 --> 00:20:39,280
Murphy Tracker Tractor for the remaining
purchase balance of $73,000.

284
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:45,120
The purchase price reflects a $19,500
credit for rental fees previously

285
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:48,400
incured while incurred while leasing the
equipment for asphalt patching

286
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:52,880
operations. Jeff. Yes. Good morning,
commissioners. Uh, this is the piece of

287
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:57,200
of equipment that we've been utilizing
this year to make these patches.

288
00:20:54,559 --> 00:21:02,080
Justin's team has been um, in my
opinion, making some of the best blade

289
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:07,919
patches we've had ever in the community.
And, uh, we've spoken, I think, briefly

290
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:12,240
last year about doing this. The the this
particular model is the exact one that

291
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:16,400
we would that fits our equipment that we
utilize. We we like it. um we're going

292
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:21,360
to have an opportunity to knock about
$20,000 off the purchase price of it.

293
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:26,720
And uh the real benefit will be that
we'll have it to utilize when we need it

294
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:31,520
instead of at the mercy of the rental
agreement. Uh we can also do shoulder

295
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:36,799
work on it along highways and some of
the asphalt repair works that we've

296
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:39,760
done. And it would be a very vital piece
of equipment going forward for us if

297
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:44,720
we're going to do some of this asphalt
work in the future. Um, and I I can

298
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:51,360
answer any questions that you have on
it. I did call uh Eric Godman or Eric

299
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:55,919
Waterman with um with Murphy and asked
if if we did rent it next year if I

300
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,240
could apply both of those and he said it
was just this year only. So, I did

301
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:04,000
» you're going to rent it every year
anyway.

302
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:07,520
» Is the one you're wanting to purchase
the exact same one you

303
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:12,400
» It's the one that's in our yard. Yes. Uh
we all we would do is just buy it.

304
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:17,120
» Uh that would be the price that you have
there. That would be that 92,500.

305
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:21,039
» What's a brand new one cost?
>> About that about $100,000.

306
00:22:19,120 --> 00:22:25,520
» New when we got it.
>> Uh pretty much new, Justin. I think we

307
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,799
were the only ones that were utilizing
the

308
00:22:27,120 --> 00:22:31,440
» Okay, that's the question I had.
>> When we got it,

309
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:36,960
» um
>> what was it down? What was the issues we

310
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,960
had with it this summer?

311
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:44,720
Okay.
>> No like

312
00:22:42,159 --> 00:22:47,520
» manufacturing details or you know
issues.

313
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:52,400
» No, I it it's been a good machine for
us. There's limited uh there's very

314
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:58,400
little electronic
matters with it which we really like and

315
00:22:55,360 --> 00:23:01,679
anything that uh uh I I do think if we
did turn it in we would have some

316
00:22:59,679 --> 00:23:06,799
cosmetic repairs that we would also have
to pay for uh at this point. But I it's

317
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:11,120
a good machine and it's the it fits
everything that we utilize and we would

318
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:16,320
really like to to keep keep it busy. The
other thing that would really help is

319
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:22,159
we've been doing this in 110 degree heat
and uh it would be nice to give our

320
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:26,480
staff an opportunity to do this
>> outside the realm of just the

321
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:31,520
construction season.
>> Well, usually paving doesn't care if

322
00:23:29,120 --> 00:23:38,240
it's 110 degrees.
Um, I had a question and I lost it, but

323
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:45,280
» no question about a statement. I
personally got to see him using it and

324
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:52,640
and it not only the use of the machine,
I can see where it really speeds up the

325
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:58,799
process of getting it done. also
they in half mile section there did

326
00:23:56,559 --> 00:24:06,240
several big places and within two or
three hours was gone. It took them

327
00:24:01,679 --> 00:24:11,919
longer to unload and load than it did to
lay the axle. I mean and it does much

328
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:19,279
better. It they're still learning how to
use it. I can tell that. But it it

329
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:24,159
that seems to be a good deal. Good deal.
>> Yeah. Does Murphy offer like training

330
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:28,240
over everything that it does or have you
guys gone through all because sometimes

331
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,840
these things can do a lot.
>> Yeah, it it's actually designed to do

332
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,600
shoulder work and we would be able to do
the same thing like on old 50 or some

333
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:39,120
some of these asphalt projects that we
talked about where we were going to have

334
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:42,960
more than a 3-in lift. We could do the
shouldering and that would again save

335
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,919
the county a lot of money.
>> This is one that's attached to a skid

336
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:53,039
loader and not a standalone.
>> Yes. Yes, it is. And it um it really is

337
00:24:51,279 --> 00:24:55,440
it just kind of fits our needs. It
really does fit our the purpose of what

338
00:24:55,120 --> 00:25:00,880
we
>> patches are better.

339
00:24:56,799 --> 00:25:05,600
» You know, it there is a there is a an
expense to the overrun on patch when we

340
00:25:03,679 --> 00:25:11,279
do the old system of blade patching
because we are not just stopping and

341
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:15,279
starting where we want to. So, uh it
does reduce those asphalt costs and we

342
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:20,640
actually use it at the exact location
and it lays down a whole lot better.

343
00:25:17,679 --> 00:25:26,320
Now, as we start to do more paving or
patching on our own, do we have like I

344
00:25:23,919 --> 00:25:31,200
call it a mini mill or a cold planer and
then like the tack oil stuff?

345
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:35,520
» We don't have a we don't have a
distributor, but we do have a small

346
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:39,360
miller and it's really small. It's just
one that goes on front of a skid loader.

347
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,799
So, we can we can mill out some of the
small things that we need. But, as far

348
00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:44,880
as something where we like what we've
been using Kilo to do to go out and

349
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,279
mill.
>> Yeah. Now, I was thinking more just the

350
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,799
patches. Yeah,
>> get that nice sharp edge.

351
00:25:48,799 --> 00:25:54,640
» Yes, we do have those. We do have the
now, but we do not have a distributor.

352
00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:58,400
So, we don't have anything to lay oil
with.

353
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:02,480
» If that would be down, you know, more as
you get doing this more if you're going

354
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:07,360
to need these things because
>> I I think our niche is really in the

355
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:11,279
fact that we can do a better job of
patching. I don't think we're ever going

356
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:16,720
to be a situation where we actually run
an crew, per se, but I do think

357
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:19,840
we can make roads better by just making
improvements

358
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,919
uh through some of the patching that we
do and our ability to patch those.

359
00:26:21,919 --> 00:26:27,919
» I just thought tack oil helps it stay so
it doesn't slide off sometimes, but

360
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:31,679
» I don't know what the cost of a tack oil
machine is like that size and stuff. So,

361
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,960
» yeah. Yeah, we would have to have some
type of a distributor and those type of

362
00:26:33,360 --> 00:26:37,760
things, but it's stuff we can look into
in the future for sure

363
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:42,000
» about if we got more serious. But
anyways, on this, does anybody have any

364
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:48,400
more questions?
>> I I would tell you that that the public

365
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:55,039
works special equipment fund we believe
can tolerate this expense. A and

366
00:26:51,520 --> 00:27:01,520
certainly Sabrina to your point um each
new budget year I think it would uh

367
00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:06,960
behoove all of us to do an analysis of
what our workloads going to look like

368
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:13,440
that year and what equipment if any um
could aid in that. So as time permits

369
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:18,320
Jeff and prep for 27 you might just look
at that distributor. I mean, there are a

370
00:27:15,679 --> 00:27:23,600
lot of things. I'm just get a 10,000
foot idea on what that would look like

371
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:26,559
just so we have an understanding.
>> Be glad to do that. Absolutely.

372
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:31,360
» And my thought was if we start doing
more and more asphalt, then that means

373
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:36,880
more and more asphalt patching, you
know, and that kind of stuff. So, I just

374
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:42,400
» it's kind of opens a can of worms, but
>> want to do it right. So, but it is

375
00:27:38,799 --> 00:27:46,760
looking nice. So, all right. Anybody
would like to make a motion regarding

376
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:54,720
» make a motion to purchase the shoulder
master uh paver from Murphy Tractor for

377
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:57,279
73,000.
>> All right.

378
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,960
» All right.
>> Commissioner Dickinson,

379
00:27:58,399 --> 00:28:00,399
» yes.
>> Commissioner Stomire,

380
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,760
» yes.
>> Commissioner Waymire,

381
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,120
» yes.
>> Commissioner Harris,

382
00:28:02,799 --> 00:28:06,720
» yes.
>> Chair Met,

383
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:11,200
» yes. All right. Thank you. and now
consider approving the hydraulic repairs

384
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,440
to our 2011 Freight Liner bucket truck
through

385
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:19,200
» Yeah, this is something that you had we
put before you in early 2024.

386
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:25,600
Uh we had spent some repairs through
Altech up in St. Joe, Missouri. And

387
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:30,240
those repairs lasted approximately 100
hours uh before we had some other

388
00:28:28,159 --> 00:28:36,320
hydraulic issues that had come up on the
machine. Um so we had to take it back up

389
00:28:32,799 --> 00:28:41,919
to to St. Joe and they build us for an
additional estimate of $35,000 to repair

390
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:47,120
it. At the time we decided that was more
than we wanted to spend on the truck and

391
00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:52,640
we in the meantime have redtagged it and
been looking for other alternatives or

392
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:55,840
other locations to fix it. Uh Kirk is
here today and I believe he and Rusty

393
00:28:54,240 --> 00:29:00,880
may have reached out and found some
place in outside of Tulsa, Oklahoma. We

394
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:05,679
drove the truck down a few weeks ago and
we got the estimate back. I believe what

395
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:09,919
they want to do to help uh some offset
some of those costs is it also has a

396
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:13,760
winch on the front of it which we don't
utilize. We really use utilize the

397
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:19,440
bucket. So I think they're going to
detach that winch and that pump. So

398
00:29:16,559 --> 00:29:24,640
that's going to save us a large amount
of money and repairs and it will just be

399
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:32,320
getting our bucket truck back and
utilizing it uh for the needs. We we had

400
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:36,080
to uh we were using the city of Ottawa.
Justin had worked out with them where we

401
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:41,279
had actually utilized theirs before the
tornado this year. So, um we did have

402
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:45,760
access to a bucket truck, but we're
starting to feel that pinch now after a

403
00:29:43,919 --> 00:29:50,240
year or so and things that we'd need it.
We've really been lucky in that we

404
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:54,080
haven't had to really utilize it in such
a way. Uh

405
00:29:52,159 --> 00:29:56,799
» so, just to replace all the lines in the
boom.

406
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,279
» Yes. They got crunchy as I remember,
didn't they?

407
00:29:57,279 --> 00:30:05,200
» Well, they all expanded. They all got
the pressure on the hydraulic got set

408
00:30:01,679 --> 00:30:08,559
between the mark on the pump and
therefore that pump ran them to the

409
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,279
point that they expanded them. We
replaced all of them and now what

410
00:30:10,159 --> 00:30:16,559
they're going to have to do is go back
in and just disconnect one pump and get

411
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:23,760
everything back going. But the actual
estimate was right around uh $6,250

412
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:27,279
and we set a cap on it at $7,000 in
hopes that we could get that truck back

413
00:30:25,279 --> 00:30:33,279
up and go on it. We definitely need it.
We could we could use it again. Uh it's

414
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:36,880
going to be worth a lot more than that.
Uh but it really does fit all our needs.

415
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:40,799
It's it's it's an older truck, but it's
four-wheel drive. It has everything that

416
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:44,320
we use. The reach on it is is real
effective, and we're familiar with it.

417
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:49,919
So, the truck itself is good. But it's
just been the hydraulic issue.

418
00:30:46,559 --> 00:30:52,880
» I like that you went and looked around.
>> Thank you. Better options.

419
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:56,159
» Yeah,
>> that's it's a hard it's a hard ticket,

420
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,360
too, because there's not a lot of places
that we're willing to work on that that

421
00:30:57,919 --> 00:31:04,640
will guarantee that it'll meet the
dialectric U component that we have to

422
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:09,360
and they assure us that they will.
>> All right. Does anybody want to make a

423
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:15,679
motion? I'll make a motion to repair on
a 2011 freight liner for not to exceed

424
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:19,120
$7,000.
>> Second.

425
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,559
» Commissioner Smomire.
>> Yes.

426
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,919
» Commissioner Wemire.
>> Yes.

427
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,360
» Commissioner Harris.
>> Yes.

428
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,480
» Commissioner Dickinson.
>> Yes.

429
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,440
» Chair Matter.
>> Yes.

430
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,760
» Thank you.
>> You're welcome. Thank you. All right.

431
00:31:27,919 --> 00:31:35,600
Moving on to staff reports.
>> Thanks, Sabrina. Last year, you may

432
00:31:32,559 --> 00:31:42,240
recall, Prairie Paws got a mobile spay
and neuter clinic, and they had asked us

433
00:31:38,399 --> 00:31:47,519
to write a letter in support of adding
that to their property tax exemption.

434
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:55,519
Yesterday, I received another request
from them. They bought a 2012 Ford

435
00:31:51,279 --> 00:32:00,080
Transit Connect um that they're using to
transport animals

436
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:05,519
um provide certain vet care and they've
just asked us to provide a similar

437
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:12,640
letter. I have absolutely no qualms
doing that. Um just wanted to make sure

438
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:16,720
that you all have no concerns prior to
executing it.

439
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:21,519
So, I assume if they're asking for that,
they tag everything in Franklin County

440
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:24,720
and not the other counties that they
>> That must be the case. Yes.

441
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:31,440
» I just wondered if the other counties
were cheaper or not.

442
00:32:29,279 --> 00:32:35,039
» Is anybody
It's probably much.

443
00:32:33,279 --> 00:32:37,360
» Yeah. No, it's not.
>> Just want to make sure there are no

444
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:42,399
objections.
>> All right. All right. Thanks. That's it.

445
00:32:39,919 --> 00:32:45,399
» All right. Paul, do you have anything?
Morning.

446
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:55,039
» Morning.
>> Um, just I sent out my monthly update,

447
00:32:52,880 --> 00:33:01,679
so I thought I'd just share a couple of
uh comments that I made in there. Um, we

448
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:06,000
continue to work with commerce. Uh
they've got a new uh person that works

449
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:11,600
under Craig Vanway that can support
existing industry on uh tax incentives

450
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:16,320
and tax benefits for uh purchasing
machinery for industrial use or

451
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:22,000
expansion of staff, building a building.
We do have an industry in the North Park

452
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:25,120
that's uh going to expand. And so uh
we've had a couple of meetings where I

453
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:30,000
brought Skyler, that's his name, have
come and visit with him. And so, um,

454
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:34,960
that expansion's moving forward and
we're getting great support from from

455
00:33:31,679 --> 00:33:39,279
the Kansas Department of Commerce. Um,
working on, uh, three potential grants

456
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:43,840
right now. Uh, all of these would
benefit in some form or fashion.

457
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:50,080
Wellsville. Uh, they're not large
grants. One's 10,000, one's up to

458
00:33:45,919 --> 00:33:55,519
40,000. But some of these are um
potentially helpful as we're recruiting

459
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:59,360
uh a couple of uh prospects for
Wellsville

460
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:05,679
uh from a
commercial and and u

461
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:08,879
uh industrial standpoint. So, uh lot
going on in Wellsville. Their housing

462
00:34:07,279 --> 00:34:15,200
continues to grow. They're anticipating
another 120 to 130 new doors again in

463
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:20,240
2027.
So, uh we're looking at a lot of

464
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:24,079
different um like MIH and some of those
different things with some of those

465
00:34:21,359 --> 00:34:27,760
builders. Um
>> subdivision going in up there.

466
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:32,320
» They'll be extending back behind where
they're building right now. And then uh

467
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:36,480
they did take out that trailer trailer
park area. So Adabberry is putting I

468
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:41,359
think
15 homes in there and then he's doing

469
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:47,679
some other development and then uh
there's a couple other um pieces of

470
00:34:45,359 --> 00:34:50,960
ground that um potentially could be
developed.

471
00:34:48,639 --> 00:34:57,359
» Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
>> Um we do have our cyber security uh

472
00:34:54,399 --> 00:35:01,119
information meeting on September 22nd.
That's at 8 a.m. at Otter University.

473
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:06,160
We're getting great support on that from
Impact Wealth and Otter University.

474
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:10,720
I just had another cyber security
presentation yesterday I set sat in on

475
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:15,920
at the Wellsville Chamber. So, that's
becoming a bigger and bigger issue with

476
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:19,599
Whoop, sorry. Um with the people doing
the fishing emails and that type of

477
00:35:17,599 --> 00:35:23,760
thing. So, we've got a pretty good
pretty good crowd coming to that on the

478
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:27,119
22nd. But, anybody that wants to come,
just let me know and we'll certainly

479
00:35:25,359 --> 00:35:32,480
welcome. We'll have some food and coffee
and juice there. That's at 8:00 in the

480
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:38,320
morning on the 22nd at Audi University
upstairs in the student union.

481
00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:42,000
And then um
I said this on the radio this morning, I

482
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:46,160
want to say it again here is you know
this is a this is a fun month for our

483
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:51,839
community. Uh this weekend we have the
power of the pass. Next weekend we have

484
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:56,640
the merazine old
river car run car show and then the

485
00:35:53,920 --> 00:36:00,880
weekend after that is Wellsville days
and um you know those are great for

486
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:06,160
quality of life. Those are a lot of fun.
It's an activity that people can enjoy.

487
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:10,720
But I think the other piece at least
that resonates a lot with me is the

488
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:16,960
economic impact. Um, these bring
thousands of people to our community.

489
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:22,800
Um, which generates uh revenue uh for
the governments as far as sales tax and

490
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:27,440
maybe some TGT money. Um, well, most
definitely some TGT money. But, uh, I

491
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:31,440
think just as important and maybe more
important, it generates business for our

492
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:37,440
local businesses. It generates revenue
and customers for our local business.

493
00:36:34,079 --> 00:36:42,160
And um I think it's important for us as
a community to appreciate the people

494
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:46,240
that lead these events. Um you know they
they don't start working on this in

495
00:36:43,839 --> 00:36:50,320
August. They they actually I think over
the road game meets the week or two

496
00:36:47,839 --> 00:36:55,520
after and starts working on next year.
>> In fact we on Sunday our first meeting

497
00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:58,160
is when we're closing down
>> closing down and have a meeting

498
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:03,119
» Sunday afternoon.
>> Yeah. So, uh, I just want the community

499
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:07,280
to appreciate, uh, all the work that
goes in for all of these events. I think

500
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:12,240
the other piece that, uh, people need to
remember is the the the gifts that are

501
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:16,640
generated from these organizations to
our nonprofits and to our communities.

502
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:21,359
Uh, Power of the Past, you know, gave
the city of Ottawa a substantial amount

503
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:27,280
of money to build another uh, location
out there in the park. I know the over

504
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:30,800
the river gang um, does a ton of uh,
community support. uh through the

505
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,880
revenue that they generate and I I know
the same thing happens at the Wellsville

506
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:40,160
days as well. So
um one it's a lot of fun but two it

507
00:37:37,359 --> 00:37:45,280
generates tax revenue uh it generates
business for our our small businesses

508
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:49,680
and then it generates revenue for a lot
of organizations that that make our

509
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:54,400
community what it is. So just want the
community to appreciate all that goes

510
00:37:51,839 --> 00:37:57,040
into that and the great benefit that all
of us receive. whether you go to the

511
00:37:55,599 --> 00:38:02,240
event or not, you're still benefiting
from the work uh that's been done. And

512
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:06,240
then uh lastly, just because uh you're
talking about it, I drive up and down

513
00:38:03,839 --> 00:38:13,280
Eisenhower Road a lot and I really want
to compliment Jeff and and Justin on on

514
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:16,400
Eisenhower is so smooth.
It's as smooth as it's been since I've

515
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,839
lived here and they've just done a great
job with that. And so I just really

516
00:38:18,240 --> 00:38:24,240
appreciate the work that the county does
and that these guys do. So I'm happy to

517
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:27,599
answer any questions.
questions for Paul.

518
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:32,560
» Okay. Thanks.
>> Thank you. All right. Dustin Brownie, do

519
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:36,960
you have anything else to add? Nathan,
our other Dustin. All right, Jeff.

520
00:38:35,359 --> 00:38:39,920
» I just want to thank you guys for both
those pieces of equipment. They will

521
00:38:38,240 --> 00:38:45,280
make a vital difference in what we do
every day in our community as well. So,

522
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:52,079
uh they're that'll be we're very
grateful that uh for the support. Um,

523
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:59,119
they should be out next week on the John
Brown Bridge at least bringing in some

524
00:38:55,359 --> 00:39:03,440
equipment to get started. I believe uh
last I talked to them last week we

525
00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:07,200
should be uh seeing a crane show up and
then they're going to do some test

526
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:10,560
filings. The utility line they've got it
marked Justin said this morning so they

527
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:15,599
still need to get it relocated but I
spoke with Jeff Pierce earlier uh last

528
00:39:14,240 --> 00:39:21,119
week and he indicated they thought they
would have it done by week's end. So, I

529
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:28,400
everything's good there. And uh I think
Justin and I are supposed to meet with

530
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:31,359
um thing Bush regarding the new bridge
work next week.

531
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,240
» All right.
>> If you got anything else, I'll answer

532
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:38,079
any questions you have, but thank you
for the equipment.

533
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:44,240
» Yeah. Thank you. Anything? All right.
Commissioners Don

534
00:39:41,599 --> 00:39:50,960
Wells meeting tonight. They got a a lot
on their schedule tonight. So, uh, uh,

535
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:56,720
but a lot of different things. I went to
Wal Chamber meeting yesterday and Sheila

536
00:39:54,240 --> 00:40:01,920
Robinson, most of you know Sheila, she
kind of heads up the pathways grants and

537
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:06,960
there's a new round of them opening up
now and there's already a couple

538
00:40:04,079 --> 00:40:12,240
communities applied for some money
through that. So if anybody's has any

539
00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:17,280
projects they got going infrastructure
or or programs they want to do in their

540
00:40:14,720 --> 00:40:23,839
community might contact Sheila. She's
got the information and the applications

541
00:40:20,720 --> 00:40:28,800
and I know that that has benefited a lot
of things in the county in the last few

542
00:40:26,240 --> 00:40:33,040
years and so it's a good it's a good
program. That's all I got.

543
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,880
» What about striping?
>> Oh yeah,

544
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,440
» it starts tomorrow.
>> Okay. Thanks for reminding me right here

545
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,920
tomorrow. I
>> I think of that when I'm driving on the

546
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,640
road sometime. They're going to be doing
striping.

547
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:46,800
» They they are just bringing in paint
today and planning on doing painting on

548
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:50,000
Thursday and Friday and be out of here
by the weekend.

549
00:40:47,839 --> 00:40:52,240
» We'll have rain. We're supposed to have
rain.

550
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:55,680
» Well, that could stop it.
>> Yeah.

551
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:58,960
» Don't stop the rain.
>> Yeah, that's right.

552
00:40:56,319 --> 00:41:06,960
» Yeah, exactly. We need the rain.
>> Anything. All right. Um, Friday I went

553
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:09,359
to the Kansas State Bank whatever
>> ribbon cutting.

554
00:41:07,839 --> 00:41:14,000
» Well, it wasn't ribbon cutting the
ground. Thank you. I had it. Um, so it's

555
00:41:12,319 --> 00:41:20,000
kind of neat to see that they'll get the
Bennett Crearyy building up looking

556
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:25,280
good. And so that's kind of neat. And
um, last Wednesday evening, we went to

557
00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:30,560
the Farm Bureau legislative dinner and
it was a good conversation. I say it was

558
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:33,119
a warm conversation with locals and the
state.

559
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,200
» So, it was good.
>> And now,

560
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:40,480
» all right.
>> If you watched the uh meeting last week,

561
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:44,960
you'll notice that I wasn't here. Um, as
bad as it looks today, it really looked

562
00:41:42,240 --> 00:41:49,280
gnarly last week. Um, but I did want to
thank my fellow commissioners for

563
00:41:47,359 --> 00:41:52,720
approving the moratorum for the data
centers. Um, just for the record, if I'd

564
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:58,400
have been here, it would have still been
unanimous, though. Um, I think that the

565
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:02,800
community appreciates that and they will
get to vote on it uh on the ballot it

566
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:06,880
sounds like. So that's all I got.
>> All right. Is there a motion for

567
00:42:04,319 --> 00:42:10,800
adjournment? Move. Is there?
>> All right. All in favor? I
