[0:46] Here.

[0:49] OK, and the commissioner,

[0:50] act as excused. We'll have the invocation by Commissioner Courts and then the pledge to the flag

[0:58] by Commissioner Henry.

[1:02] Yes. Dear Lord, again, I ask you to tap this from this pandemic. Please heal the sick,

[1:09] protect all of us. The nurses, the MC, the doctors, respiratory therapists, grocery store workers,

[1:16] Fire and police employees, all those frontlineers, that's those who are hungry and worried about the future.

[1:24] Please protect all of us. Amen.

[1:31] It's a pleasure to have a plot of your mind.

[1:37] I'm a man.

[1:39] I'm a man.

[1:40] I'm a man.

[1:57] You're approval of the minutes.

[1:59] There are no minutes.

[2:00] I'm a man.

[2:02] Is there any public address to the board to do we receive anything?

[2:06] Mr. Chairman, we did receive one email.

[2:08] And I can read that into the record now.

[2:11] Sure.

[2:11] It's from Matthew Smith of Davis and Michigan. I would like to thank Chairman Marty Kuzno, the Board of Commissioners, County Sheriff Chris Swanson and the Health Department for the continued update to be a press conference as to the public.

[2:24] We are living in serious time through the COVID-19 virus in which our citizens are counting on us to deliver for them.

[2:31] I wanted to point out a Bible quote from Isaiah chapter 43 verses 10 through 13.

[2:37] Don't panic. I'm with you. There's no need to fear for I am your God. I'll give you strength.

[2:43] I'll help you. I, your God, have a firm grip on you, and I'm not letting go in the quote.

[2:49] I want to remind you that we here in Genesis County are strong and by working together we can get through anything.

[2:54] Thank you all for your leadership during this pandemic.

[2:59] Mr. Chairman, if we can just remind everybody to mute their phones if they're not talking or their computers,

[3:05] So we don't hear that background information or noise.

[3:08] We receive no phone calls.

[3:12] And there is nobody here in the audience

[3:13] to participate publicly.

[3:17] So hearing none others will move on to communications.

[3:20] We have emergency purchase notification

[3:23] from the medical examiner.

[3:25] It's a chairman that is attached to your agendas

[3:28] and it is on file in our office.

[3:32] Do we need to make the motion and no action?

[3:34] No action. Okay. Under reports board of commissioners, Josh, you had a couple items to add.

[3:42] Yes. Yesterday, I emailed everybody, copy of the resolution for the corrective action plan that needs to be submitted to the state.

[3:53] Initially, in February about a week before it was due, we got notification from our previous controller that we needed to come up with a plan

[4:02] that it was due to the state, a Crystal Simpson or a current CFO contact to the state and let them know that we would need an extension on that, that extension went through March 31st.

[4:14] Obviously there was a couple of whether it's one big issue that happened in the interim that kind of delayed this because we needed to contact our

[4:22] Actually, and they needed to work some numbers on it.

[4:26] So I have, or you all have before you, a copy of the resolution in the plan that will be submitted to the state.

[4:33] So that'll be add on number one.

[4:36] And then just also, I guess as we move through this, not knowing how long we're going to be meeting like this,

[4:43] and how long we're going to be restricted.

[4:44] It probably makes sense to give the chair some authority to sign contracts on an emergency basis

[4:51] That would then come to you guys for review or for approval at the next available meeting, but I know that there's some issues for example

[5:00] We're looking at doing something with sheltering the homeless that's going to require a contract to be signed for the county

[5:09] So I don't know how you want to handle that, but it's something that should probably be added to the agenda and some sort of limited authority given to the chair to act independent of the board

[5:19] So I was already in place that when we're in an emergency situation the sheriff has authority to be able to sign

[5:33] Well, I wasn't hurt to redo it

[5:37] Okay, but I thought I thought I was going to part of the

[5:40] By law's for us

[5:43] I think the commission will always talk about is restricted to more like weather events and other things

[5:50] when this is going to give you some more land.

[5:54] You're absolutely right.

[5:57] So do we want to move both of these right now?

[5:59] We want to just do it up to himself.

[6:01] When are we doing it under a five and six?

[6:05] I don't know.

[6:06] Okay.

[6:07] What?

[6:09] Do we have a motion to add those to the,

[6:12] Remi, do we have a vote to add those to the agenda?

[6:15] It was moved by Commissioner Henry and supported by Commissioner Nuldin.

[6:20] Is anybody want to make a comment on those two?

[6:26] Go ahead, Mr. Young.

[6:29] Yeah, the only problem I have went with A5 is the issue

[6:35] dealing with the corrective action plan.

[6:37] dealing with the fever system is that I just don't think this is being done in an open and transparent way when it's being added to the agenda at the last minute.

[6:49] Mr. Chair, was this have a motion on the agenda to add it to the agenda not to discuss the agenda yet?

[6:55] Yeah. We need to vote to add it to the agenda and then take it up at number five.

[7:00] Well, and I may ask you not to add it to the agenda.

[7:06] So that's what my discussion is about.

[7:09] Thank you.

[7:11] I understand too, Mr. Young.

[7:12] Is there any other comments to the add-ons?

[7:17] Seeing none, roll call vote.

[7:20] Mission or an olden?

[7:21] Yes.

[7:22] Mission or an olden? Yes.

[7:23] Commissioner Ellenberg? Yes.

[7:25] Commissioner Ellenberg? Yes. Commissioner Courts?

[7:28] Yeah.

[7:29] Missioner Court.

[7:30] Yes.

[7:30] Commissioner Young.

[7:33] No on a five.

[7:36] One motion.

[7:38] Here.

[7:38] Yes.

[7:39] No.

[7:40] No.

[7:42] Commissioner.

[7:43] Young.

[7:44] Commissioner.

[7:46] Yes.

[7:48] Commissioner.

[7:49] Yes.

[7:50] Commissioner.

[7:50] Yes.

[7:51] Commissioner.

[7:51] Yes.

[7:55] Commissioner.

[7:58] Yes.

[7:58] it passes a seven one motion passed moving on a one resolution 2020

[8:07] one ninety six approval of modification number one of a contract between

[8:13] Genesee County and laser technologies to provide for software

[8:17] implementation in the vital records of division of the Genesee

[8:21] only clerks office. The fund is okay. This is part of the part moved by Henry and supported by

[8:30] Ellenberg. Yeah.

[8:34] Is there any discussion?

[8:40] I do have one question. This was approved by Cooper writer.

[8:49] Yes, it was reviewed by risk management. Okay. Is there any other comments?

[9:26] yes passes on eight zero.

[9:31] Resolution twenty one ninety seven approval of a request by the

[9:35] Genesee County Drain Commissioner to exempt certain employees from

[9:39] the family first. Coronavirus response act with it.

[9:47] Or move by Commissioner Henry supported by Commissioner Nolden.

[9:53] Does anybody have any comments or questions?

[9:57] That's it because that's your chair just, and again, what's this to do?

[10:03] I'm not sure if I could do you, Mr. Freeman will explain.

[10:08] Just like public safety and health care workers, the drain office is considered any

[10:15] central public safety department, so he's asking that they be exempted as well as the

[10:26] Mr. Chair.

[10:28] Yes, Mr. Henry.

[10:30] Through you to Josh.

[10:32] This doesn't give all of these employees.

[10:34] Are we working everybody to drain off this even though these essential services are only being utilized?

[10:41] I assume they're not out just doing their day-to-day whatever they do.

[10:46] When it's not essential, like the road commission cut backer.

[10:49] And we cut back our service to the essential service only.

[10:53] I can't speak to that, but I do know that the resolution provides for the drink commissioner

[11:01] to make that determination.

[11:02] If you'd like, I can get him on the phone and we can talk to him.

[11:07] I was just calling on my own.

[11:09] That's fine.

[11:09] I can get people.

[11:12] Is there any other questions?

[11:15] I just don't want to put employees in our way.

[11:17] Well, we don't have to.

[11:18] That's what I can say.

[11:19] Okay, thank you, Mr. Henry.

[11:21] Any other comments?

[11:59] Commissioner Allenburg. Yeah, Commissioner Allenburg. Yes, passes 80. Okay, resolution 20198 approval of a request by the Gen. C. County Drain Commissioner to purchase the good rich drain note in the amount of 545,000 dollars at a percentage rate of 1.65 per annum. No need paid. Okay, moved. Do I have a support?

[12:28] I'm sorry you guys garbled up.

[12:30] who moved it. I did Ellenberg moved by Commissioner Ellenberg who supported.

[12:42] Okay.

[12:45] Okay. Is there any discussion

[12:50] hearing none all those in favor?

[12:53] Commissioner Young. All right. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

[12:56] I'm sorry.

[12:59] I'm sorry. Commissioner Young. Yes. Commissioner Young. Yes. Commissioner

[13:49] Resolution 2199 approval of a contract between

[13:52] Jesse County and Plant Moran group benefit advisors to provide consulting

[13:58] services related to the health care for active and retiree employees.

[14:03] The part who moved up and removed that?

[14:10] Is there any comments or questions?

[14:16] Hearing none, roll call vote please, Mr. Schumacher?

[14:51] A5 add-on concerning the Viva, corrective action plan, fliling to-

[15:20] This was something that had to be turned into the state. And because of the coronavirus, it actually pushed back a little bit. So this was something that had already been in the

[15:31] Yeah, right. Yes, it was in the worst, you know,

[15:35] Crystal the CFO, she could answer to that.

[15:42] Do you want to hear me?

[15:46] Oh, speak up.

[15:47] Okay. Um, yes.

[15:50] So that can February, the deadline was mid February.

[15:55] We knew we weren't going to make that deadline.

[15:57] So we contacted the state.

[15:58] We got the 45 day extension that took us through the end of March.

[16:02] As soon as I was notified that it was now on my plate, I read the directions as I outlined in the memo.

[16:09] Number three, I had contacted NYHeart to get them engaged to help us with the numbers.

[16:15] Typically, they're turned around on something like that as eight weeks, so they expedited their work.

[16:21] Unfortunately, with the coronavirus, they also had to shift the working remotely,

[16:25] which caused a little bit of delay on their end.

[16:27] We'd originally been shooting for the 325 meeting, excuse me.

[16:35] So this was had off the press from them yesterday, again, two weeks earlier than they normally turn something around.

[16:40] So they really worked with us.

[16:42] In order to comply with the state phone call from Monday,

[16:46] we have to get this approved and submitted to them today.

[16:49] If we don't, we will be listed in not compliance on the Treasury's website.

[16:54] And it will also keep us from being able to issue any debt to fund that going forward.

[17:01] So just so you're aware of that.

[17:03] Is there any other questions or comments

[17:09] to see in the roll call vote please?

[17:15] I just want to know if this is something that came up before.

[17:20] Is this six votes required?

[17:22] Is that a curse?

[17:23] When we added the agenda, or is this six votes required for this vote?

[17:26] It seems like it should be for this vote on from the floor.

[17:33] Clareification, Mr. Layton.

[17:41] Mr. Layton, or Mr. McMillan?

[17:43] Yeah, I'm here.

[17:48] My understanding is this was added to the agenda at the outset,

[17:53] but prior to any finalization of the agenda, because the way that the Board of Commissioners

[17:59] works. You never actually adopt an agenda. So my understanding is it would only be a majority

[18:07] vote that would be necessary under the circumstances because there was no, there was no

[18:15] act of what's called adoption of an agenda. That makes the difference.

[18:23] Okay. Does that answer your question, Mr. Martin?

[18:27] I just know that our bylaws, our board procedures say that if it comes from a floor,

[18:32] I don't know if an ad on would be included in the required six votes.

[18:36] Mr.

[18:38] Chair, one question.

[18:40] Yes.

[18:41] Mr. Henry?

[18:43] Yes.

[18:44] Through you two, Crystal, this we have an April 15 deadline with this motion correct.

[18:51] They have a meeting, their board has a meeting, and the 15th, so we let them know we would be putting it on the agenda today to get it to them before that meeting.

[19:03] So we should make it no problem, right?

[19:06] Yes.

[19:07] Any questions?

[19:11] Is there any other comments or questions?

[19:16] Roll call, vote, please.

[19:18] Commissioner Cousinow.

[19:19] Yes.

[19:19] Commissioner Cousinow.

[19:20] Commissioner Henry.

[19:22] Yes.

[19:22] Mr. Henry Yask, Mr. Martin.

[19:25] Yes.

[19:26] Mr. Martin, yes, Commissioner Nolden.

[19:29] Yeah.

[19:29] Commissioner Nolden, yes, Commissioner Ellen Burke.

[19:32] Yeah.

[19:32] Commissioner Ellen Burke, yes, Commissioner Courts.

[19:35] Yeah.

[19:36] Commissioner Courts, yes, Commissioner Yon.

[19:39] No.

[19:39] Commissioner Yon, no, Commissioner Schumacher.

[19:44] Commissioner Schumacher, yes, motion passes seven to one.

[19:49] Okay.

[19:49] The resolution A6 concerning given the chair authority design certain contracts green the Corona virus.

[20:03] Move by Commissioner Ellenberg supported by Commissioner Noldin.

[20:11] Is there any questions or comments?

[20:17] I have I have one or two. Okay. Yes, go ahead, Mr. Schumacher.

[20:24] What? What? What? What's the definition of certain

[20:26] contracts? That's a very broad sweeping statement there. That's not a little concerned with.

[20:35] I don't know what certain things, but it would be an emergency so that I can move the business

[20:44] this board of the county, but it would still be after I signed the contracts, it would still

[20:50] be up to the board to review it and accept it at the next meeting.

[20:59] Mr. Chair, Mr. Chairman, would it be better if it was give the chair authority to sign

[21:08] emergency contracts? That way, normal everyday business contracts would come through the board

[21:13] as we meet, but emergency related to the state of emergency?

[21:20] No, that, that's probably better.

[21:23] Yeah, I would share.

[21:27] Yes, Mr. Henry.

[21:29] Would the low of money jump in a lot of like a jackrabbit?

[21:34] I think we need you to get to see it go.

[21:36] Because some of them have very little time to react to in order to get the funding.

[21:40] I don't want to lose out on any funding, but I understand that commission's she makers concerned about the

[21:47] bigness of emergency, and also I have some concern about how you define the ends of that period when the period is.

[21:58] how we define that other than I guess I could we could add something when the state of

[22:07] Michigan ends the emergency or when the county lifts our state of emergency.

[22:14] That sounds good.

[22:19] Is there any other comments or questions?

[22:22] Can we restate exactly what we're going to have in this motion?

[22:25] Yes, Mr. Freeman will.

[22:26] here giving authorization to the chair to sign contract related to the state of emergent local

[22:32] state of emergency.

[22:35] Okay, and then what about the end date? The end date that would be

[22:40] something probably different that you guys would need to deal with on the actual state of emergency.

[22:45] There was no end date included in the resolution for the state of emergency. Mr. Chair. Yes,

[22:51] Mr. Court, we think of April 30th as the governor, right now.

[22:59] Okay, we can do that. April 30th would be fine.

[23:04] Or before it's a state list, before that's not going to happen.

[23:07] Yeah, they just extended it to April 30th yesterday, but the state emergency, yeah.

[23:17] Mr. Chair.

[23:18] Yes, Mr. Chair, that that take the influid because they just want to look

[23:22] what the situation is then, instead of so we can get the economy working,

[23:26] state that the end of the stay at home, you know, with that the, because we don't know

[23:33] when the actual end date is going to be. I mean, April 30th is an adjustment date to see if we can't get

[23:38] it, it may just open a few more businesses or something. It may not be a complete lift.

[23:44] Mr. Chairman, can we run it until April 30th and then if we need to come back and address it,

[23:51] That would be a set of both of me yeah

[23:56] We only have a regular meeting scheduled for the 22nd

[24:01] Well, that would be adequate as

[24:06] you will know if they're going to extend it probably about a 20 second of this when I

[24:10] Know until you know hours before to close the bars or hours before to do even stay at home literally hours a day

[24:18] I don't know if we will

[24:22] well, we that's true. We have absolutely no idea how this

[24:27] how long this will last, but we need to make a decision as to this resolution how long

[24:34] to let it last before we have to review it or look at it.

[24:41] I like April 30th.

[24:47] If we don't have another meeting until May, the very first meeting in May,

[24:57] do you have a date for

[24:58] that Mr. Freeman?

[24:59] What I will.

[25:02] May six.

[25:03] May six.

[25:03] Hey, six.

[25:05] It would have to be a special board meeting, because that's just committee meetings, but

[25:10] we can add it.

[25:11] May six.

[25:15] You can always have a special meeting, I guess.

[25:19] You could always have a special meeting on that day.

[25:22] On any day.

[25:23] Yeah.

[25:24] Okay, so do we have a consensus of adding May six is the ending date?

[25:32] All right.

[25:32] So I just want to re-state the motion because the initial motion was allowing the chair to sign contract related to local state of emergency until May 6.

[25:42] Did anybody have a problem with that language?

[25:49] Seeing none, roll call vote, please.

[25:52] Missionary Henry.

[25:54] Yeah.

[25:55] Missionary Henry, yes, Commissioner Martin.

[25:57] Yeah.

[25:57] Missionary Martin, yes, Commissioner Nolan.

[26:00] Yes.

[26:01] Commissioner Nolan, yes, Commissioner Ellenberg.

[26:15] Yes.

[26:15] Commissioner Schumacher, yes.

[26:16] Commissioner Cousin, yes.

[26:18] Commissioner Cousin, yes.

[26:19] Motion pass is 8 to 0.

[26:22] OK.

[26:22] Moving on to community and economic development in a report from the Chairman, Mr. Martin.

[26:30] No, we don't have the meeting.

[26:32] And I just want to make mention that we do have a large amount of votes.

[26:36] the BG funds and funds coming for the emergency, we're looking for places that the

[26:42] plant commission's looking at places to use that, and some of the new rules that

[26:46] expands that we put to that. And if we need to call the question, we need to go through

[26:50] those grant funds, we will do.

[26:53] Okay, thank you. And I know we're also looking at using some of those funds to help

[26:58] with the homeless, but that remains to be seen at this point in time.

[27:04] Finance Committee, Commissioner Courts.

[27:08] Thank you.

[27:09] We could go to the position of 2200,

[27:11] approval of a post amendment to the 1920

[27:14] of self-reations, resolution,

[27:16] reallocating fund to top support,

[27:19] and budget density county,

[27:20] community, the action resource department.

[27:22] We would like Commissioner Courts,

[27:24] supported by Commissioner Schumacher.

[27:26] Is there any questions or comments?

[27:30] Seeing none, all those in favor?

[27:32] Well, roll call.

[30:34] funding.

[30:37] Board.

[30:37] Move by Commissioner Ellen Burke, support by Commissioner Noldin.

[30:42] Is there any comments or questions concerning this motion?

[30:47] I do have a comment.

[30:48] Yes, Mr. Annry.

[30:49] Yes, Mr. Chair.

[30:51] this, this expense is still tied in with COVID-19 and we document that for possible reimbursement.

[30:59] This is on the grant. These are unspended grant dollars from last year. It doesn't have anything to do with COVID-19

[31:06] portion. Well, saying that I was here to purchase this equipment to protect employees,

[31:13] they say perform services to cases that are suspected of COVID-19. So is the grant could grant the

[31:19] for something else essential is what I'm asking so we could get reimbursed work.

[31:24] We're looking for an answer hold on.

[31:27] I can call the A.

[31:27] So just put that in the place.

[31:30] I can call the medical examiner if he needs an answer now.

[31:33] You want to answer from the medical examiner we can call him.

[31:38] No, we don't need to call him but just way that into the motion.

[31:42] So we're going to start here.

[31:45] We can clarify more.

[31:47] I know this is something they're supposed to purchase last year.

[31:49] So I would assume that it's not, but we can definitely double check

[31:53] so if they could re program that grant funds that would be given to them.

[32:03] Do you want some different language in the resolution?

[32:07] No, I just want us to be, you know, keeping in voice.

[32:13] Yeah, but we're aware of it.

[32:15] So we get all the dollars back in, that's all.

[32:20] Thank you.

[32:20] All right, is there any other comments?

[32:22] Requestings on this proposal?

[32:55] or Ellen Berg gas motion pass as 8 to 0.

[32:58] Is there a report from the chairperson?

[33:02] I just want to state that, you know, my hurts out to everybody, thanks for

[33:07] health department and all the front liners that's out there working and everybody's safe.

[33:13] Okay.

[33:13] Moving on to public works committee, Mr. Henry.

[34:09] Is there a report from the chair?

[34:14] I just want to thank all the Jesse County employees, staff members that are working through this and they are

[34:20] to some things that are very scary, but we do all appreciate your service. Thank you.

[34:29] Okay, thank you, Mr. Henry. I just have one thing to make a comment on. We're working on

[34:37] how to proceed with the layoffs, with people that are non-essential, and we've requested

[34:45] list from all the different directors to provide numbers of people that they could lay off.

[34:54] And we'll be following the federal procedures for paying those people that are laid off.

[35:04] And then we're working with the unions as far as keeping the essential people that we need and

[35:12] take care of in the sheriff's department, the health department, food distribution through

[35:18] G-Card. That's something we're working on and we'll be coming to you with that relatively soon.

[35:27] Mr. Chair? Yes. Mr. Henry.

[35:31] Question, maybe we can't answer this, maybe we can, but then over probably 50 years since I

[35:38] unemployment, but at that point, if you worked a partial week, I'd forget the amount

[35:44] of hours, but you still qualified for unemployment.

[35:47] Are we looking at that as far as, obviously, rotating some employees to give everyone

[35:53] equal opportunity, I guess, on both sides of it, as far as working, and as far as time

[35:59] at home?

[36:00] Yeah, I'm aware of that, and I know we have had some conversation that they need

[36:07] There's someone else trying to talk, who is it?

[36:10] Just some background noise.

[36:12] Okay, I'm sorry, just background noise.

[36:15] Is there any other comments on that issue?

[36:19] I just hope we do look at that.

[36:21] Thank you.

[36:22] Yeah, we're taking that into consideration, Mr. Henry.

[36:26] I don't, there it is.

[36:27] Go ahead.

[36:28] We have, what's the next mean?

[36:30] Is it human services?

[36:32] Yes.

[36:34] Okay.

[36:38] No new business.
