1
00:00:11,820 --> 00:00:12,440
Thank

2
00:00:17,850 --> 00:00:26,600
you. Moving on to next item will be approval of the regular meeting agenda. Motion. Second. So motion by commission,

3
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,320
Mr. Medina, second by Commissioner Flores, do we have any discussion?

4
00:00:33,830 --> 00:00:35,310
Seeing on all rules in favor?

5
00:00:36,070 --> 00:00:39,590
By a motion carries, moving on to public input.

6
00:00:40,190 --> 00:00:44,190
During this portion of our meeting, we welcome your suggestions and want to hear your concerns.

7
00:00:44,790 --> 00:00:46,750
This is not a question and answer period.

8
00:00:47,390 --> 00:00:52,170
Speakers will be limited to five minutes and individual like to discuss an item and more

9
00:00:52,170 --> 00:00:55,710
death, may go to the county manager's office and pick up a form.

10
00:00:55,710 --> 00:00:58,350
do we have anyone for public speaking?

11
00:01:11,290 --> 00:01:14,670
Okay. So no one for public speaking would be moving on

12
00:01:14,670 --> 00:01:20,010
to proclamations under item A National House Center week and I'm going to turn this over to

13
00:01:20,010 --> 00:01:27,190
Commissioner Stephens. Thank you Chairman. I want to thank HMS for bringing a National Health Center

14
00:01:27,190 --> 00:01:33,090
week to our attention. It was last week. I'm going to read the proclamation and then we have

15
00:01:33,090 --> 00:01:38,650
representatives here today from Cassie Women's Health Center, Veterans Affairs Clinic,

16
00:01:39,210 --> 00:01:46,230
Healer Regional Family Medicines Clinic, Hidalgo Medical Services, and Silver Healthcare.

17
00:01:46,610 --> 00:01:53,530
So we'll take a group photo after I read the proclamation. This is a proclamation recognizing

18
00:01:53,530 --> 00:02:00,910
National Health Center Week. Whereas every August, the National Association of Community Health Center,

19
00:02:00,910 --> 00:02:06,810
sponsors National Health Center Week to celebrate and increase awareness of America's

20
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:07,990
community health centers.

21
00:02:08,750 --> 00:02:14,430
And whereas this is an opportunity to highlight the commitment and passion of patients, staff,

22
00:02:14,910 --> 00:02:20,370
board members, and supporters who make it possible to provide quality, comprehensive healthcare

23
00:02:20,870 --> 00:02:21,270
services.

24
00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:28,450
And whereas National Health Center Week is an annual celebration that highlights the vital

25
00:02:28,450 --> 00:02:34,850
role, community health centers play in providing affordable and accessible health care to individuals

26
00:02:34,850 --> 00:02:36,550
and families across the nation.

27
00:02:37,310 --> 00:02:42,630
And whereas this year's National Health Center Week theme celebrates how health centers

28
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:49,050
use creativity and commitment to advance innovative solutions that meet patients where they are,

29
00:02:49,750 --> 00:02:53,910
and improve primary care delivery, access, and outcomes nationwide.

30
00:02:53,910 --> 00:03:14,650
and whereas this includes partnering with key stakeholders and elected officials to strengthen relationships that support high quality, patient-centered care in the communities they serve, and whereas dedicated healthcare professionals serve our community each day and help make healthcare accessible for all.

31
00:03:15,430 --> 00:03:23,410
Now therefore, it proclaimed that Grant County commissioners recognize and celebrate August 2nd through 8th.

32
00:03:23,410 --> 00:03:25,850
as National Health Center week.

33
00:03:27,370 --> 00:03:28,950
Thank you, Commissioner Stephens.

34
00:03:29,050 --> 00:03:30,850
Can I have a motion please?

35
00:03:31,170 --> 00:03:31,470
Sure.

36
00:03:31,630 --> 00:03:33,210
Make a motion or approve or approve.

37
00:03:34,250 --> 00:03:34,770
Second.

38
00:03:35,550 --> 00:03:37,390
So I'm motion by Commissioner Medina,

39
00:03:37,570 --> 00:03:38,910
second by Commissioner Shally.

40
00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:41,390
Do we have any discussion?

41
00:03:43,190 --> 00:03:44,650
Seeing none, I'll lose a favor.

42
00:03:45,070 --> 00:03:45,370
Aye.

43
00:03:45,570 --> 00:03:46,590
I motion carries.

44
00:03:47,130 --> 00:03:49,630
We can have all of you just come on up,

45
00:03:49,830 --> 00:03:50,730
so we can take a photo.

46
00:03:50,730 --> 00:03:56,210
So just as cord right here, if you can come around this site and stand here in front of us, it'd be great.

47
00:03:56,770 --> 00:04:01,330
And I guess, Commissioner Stevens will hand out the proclamations.

48
00:04:01,450 --> 00:04:01,710
Okay.

49
00:04:02,150 --> 00:04:02,950
And Mary Ray.

50
00:04:02,950 --> 00:04:03,650
I

51
00:04:16,580 --> 00:04:21,000
can get one more person from each piece of tape so you can get your coffee.

52
00:04:28,860 --> 00:04:34,980
Okay, I'm going to get a little coffee and you can all join in this little subset here.

53
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,260
Even you, I'm going to get on with it.

54
00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:08,160
Oh my goodness!

55
00:05:08,460 --> 00:05:09,260
Wait, I'll wait here.

56
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:10,940
I'm gonna see you in a while.

57
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:12,060
Do okay.

58
00:05:12,580 --> 00:05:13,080
You'll be here for change.

59
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:13,980
I'll see you soon.

60
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:15,420
Yeah.

61
00:05:15,820 --> 00:05:16,840
I'll call her out.

62
00:05:17,540 --> 00:05:18,120
Yeah.

63
00:05:18,820 --> 00:05:18,960
I'll call her out.

64
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,180
I'll call her out.

65
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:23,660
Have a healthy week.

66
00:05:26,060 --> 00:05:27,540
Thank you for all you do.

67
00:05:33,340 --> 00:05:36,380
Thank you for all you do.

68
00:05:36,380 --> 00:05:38,180
That was a good one.

69
00:05:43,100 --> 00:05:47,020
She was telling him that my dad was my dentist.

70
00:05:48,140 --> 00:05:49,640
She dragged me in there.

71
00:05:50,860 --> 00:05:52,160
She took me to court.

72
00:05:52,940 --> 00:05:54,040
I needed more of that.

73
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,180
She was slapped.

74
00:06:06,380 --> 00:06:17,740
It's moving on to presentations under item B. Use of service recognition is Mr. Raccoon. It's Mr. Raccoon, right?

75
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:22,580
Mr. Raccoon?

76
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:29,020
So we have a user service recognition for Don Temple, 15 years of service.

77
00:06:41,170 --> 00:06:42,230
You want to get there?

78
00:06:43,210 --> 00:06:45,990
Present a certificate of appreciation for your 15 years of service.

79
00:06:46,930 --> 00:06:48,750
I appreciate you.

80
00:06:49,210 --> 00:06:50,610
You're working, working, working, working.

81
00:06:51,730 --> 00:06:54,750
I'm just going to be there at the end of the day.

82
00:06:54,750 --> 00:06:56,170
I'm just going to be there at the end of the day.

83
00:06:56,170 --> 00:06:57,290
I'm going to be there at the end of the day.

84
00:06:57,590 --> 00:06:58,490
There's a lot of experience.

85
00:06:59,030 --> 00:07:00,870
I'm going to be there at the end of the day.

86
00:07:01,430 --> 00:07:02,430
So I really appreciate that.

87
00:07:03,090 --> 00:07:04,110
So thank you for your work.

88
00:07:04,410 --> 00:07:04,630
Thank you.

89
00:07:07,170 --> 00:07:07,650
We're

90
00:07:26,530 --> 00:07:35,550

91
00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:43,610
Chair, commissioners of General Andrew.

92
00:07:44,030 --> 00:07:50,670
My name is David Carrasco, I'm a State of Wildlife Resources, and I want to give you a proper introduction to Grant County, all especially Trade Daniels.

93
00:07:52,230 --> 00:08:00,630
Good morning. Just a quick intro about myself that David said, my name is Tradanos. Originally from Northeast

94
00:08:00,630 --> 00:08:05,610
and Mexico, I've been down in these parts for about six years and we're looking forward to it

95
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:12,530
and we'll follow along. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You're for questions? Questions for

96
00:08:12,530 --> 00:08:16,510
Mr. President, thank you for your time.

97
00:08:19,770 --> 00:08:24,830
Moving on to Grand County Comprehensive Plan.

98
00:08:25,850 --> 00:08:30,110
Ms. Denise Edden, Dr. O'Hanon Euston.

99
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:47,660
We're getting ready.

100
00:08:48,340 --> 00:08:50,440
I hope you two are ready for you.

101
00:08:51,420 --> 00:08:52,440
Please be prepared.

102
00:08:52,660 --> 00:08:53,000
We'll be holding a second.

103
00:08:53,460 --> 00:08:56,160
And I will, we'll turn the budget back on.

104
00:08:56,420 --> 00:08:59,380
On this project to be ready for you to join the emergency staff.

105
00:08:59,380 --> 00:09:02,120
So I will start by making a sound.

106
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,320
I will walk right in that way.

107
00:09:33,950 --> 00:09:34,390
Do

108
00:09:45,650 --> 00:09:46,350
you have that?

109
00:09:46,990 --> 00:09:47,430
Yes.

110
00:09:48,430 --> 00:09:48,690
Yes.

111
00:09:49,210 --> 00:09:52,670
I hope this was the way I was meeting for the last six years.

112
00:09:52,750 --> 00:09:54,390
I was just about to get that to where he was.

113
00:09:55,110 --> 00:09:57,310
So we have anywhere to reach him on this road.

114
00:09:57,530 --> 00:09:58,470
I have a few years now.

115
00:09:59,070 --> 00:10:01,610
And I'm going to meet him in the last six years.

116
00:10:01,610 --> 00:10:03,030
I'm going to find out how to reach out.

117
00:11:03,050 --> 00:11:33,010
All I want to do is do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I want to do, and I want to do some of the things that I

118
00:12:03,010 --> 00:12:03,790
I'm going to be in this place.

119
00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:06,290
Meet all of these people on the regional level.

120
00:12:06,870 --> 00:12:08,950
And we can't just find these people on the library.

121
00:12:09,290 --> 00:12:10,590
All of the work is done.

122
00:12:10,970 --> 00:12:12,170
All of the work is done.

123
00:12:12,750 --> 00:12:13,950
We have a lot of money.

124
00:12:14,050 --> 00:12:17,070
We've been out for the United Party play tonight.

125
00:12:17,550 --> 00:12:19,230
It's a lot of things to do with that.

126
00:12:19,490 --> 00:12:21,230
And we have access to our food clubs and clubs.

127
00:12:22,010 --> 00:12:24,490
And that's the mission that we had for the food.

128
00:12:24,630 --> 00:12:25,690
There's a need for that.

129
00:12:25,870 --> 00:12:26,930
I want my share.

130
00:12:27,310 --> 00:12:28,410
We're going to do a lot of that.

131
00:12:28,530 --> 00:12:29,250
We share our food.

132
00:12:29,630 --> 00:12:30,510
We can't do that.

133
00:13:06,380 --> 00:13:12,780
that all the passengers were supposed to leave in the back, so if we really have to leave in the back of the train,

134
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:19,080
then it's not allowed to leave in the back of the train, so it's not allowed to leave in the back of the train.

135
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,000
I would like to give a little bit of energy to all of you.

136
00:13:22,420 --> 00:13:24,740
I would elaborate in keeping the train in the structure.

137
00:14:56,700 --> 00:14:57,840
I'm ready for this one.

138
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,160
I'm going to do it in my area.

139
00:14:59,400 --> 00:14:59,980
I'm going to be...

140
00:15:04,410 --> 00:15:06,790
Local government meeting.

141
00:15:20,130 --> 00:15:28,110
Common terms.

142
00:16:58,110 --> 00:17:09,750
So, first of all, to move back so you can see a few of the things that you'll be hearing about.

143
00:17:10,050 --> 00:17:12,790
So, you can go back out, find some emails.

144
00:17:13,890 --> 00:17:17,090
So, so, so, thank you all for that.

145
00:17:17,170 --> 00:17:17,590
Pretty good.

146
00:17:17,770 --> 00:17:20,090
Like I'm in the papers that don't have a change.

147
00:17:20,610 --> 00:17:23,910
I'm going to put that into the wall and I'm always trying to do that.

148
00:18:53,910 --> 00:18:55,690
I'm looking to use the American local civil community.

149
00:18:55,910 --> 00:18:59,030
I don't know what to say, and I'm sure that you're looking at the thing

150
00:18:59,030 --> 00:18:59,970
that I know is from here.

151
00:19:00,350 --> 00:19:01,150
I'm a public survey.

152
00:19:01,470 --> 00:19:04,170
You need to find out what the people are going to read about.

153
00:19:04,470 --> 00:19:05,590
And that is very important.

154
00:19:06,150 --> 00:19:06,790
It's already true.

155
00:19:07,150 --> 00:19:07,470
It's true.

156
00:19:08,210 --> 00:19:08,890
It's up to you.

157
00:19:08,970 --> 00:19:09,730
It's already true.

158
00:19:09,890 --> 00:19:10,610
It's already true.

159
00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:11,170
It's already true.

160
00:19:11,170 --> 00:19:11,350
It's already true.

161
00:19:13,090 --> 00:19:14,510
And I'm a public survey expert.

162
00:19:14,730 --> 00:19:16,370
I'm looking to find out what the American local government is going to do.

163
00:19:16,370 --> 00:19:16,950
It's already true.

164
00:19:18,430 --> 00:19:19,270
It's a higher information.

165
00:19:20,330 --> 00:19:20,770
I'm

166
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,180
talking about the American public.

167
00:19:24,500 --> 00:19:26,040
I'm looking to find out what the American public is going to do.

168
00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:09,670
Thank you.

169
00:23:09,670 --> 00:23:10,830
I think it could be easy.

170
00:23:14,210 --> 00:23:16,910
So that's pretty many of the other people on the water.

171
00:23:17,650 --> 00:23:20,590
But I hope to make you a good example.

172
00:23:20,890 --> 00:23:23,130
You know, can we put it all in the house?

173
00:23:23,370 --> 00:23:24,910
I hope we'll see you in the bathroom.

174
00:23:29,390 --> 00:23:30,090
Thank you.

175
00:23:30,370 --> 00:23:31,510
Commissioners, do you have any questions?

176
00:23:32,290 --> 00:23:32,910
Commissioner Shelley?

177
00:23:33,410 --> 00:23:35,050
Yes, thank you for the presentation.

178
00:23:36,090 --> 00:23:39,650
Miss Atten, and just a quick question.

179
00:23:39,650 --> 00:23:47,430
And how successful do you think you were in getting input on the comprehensive plan from

180
00:23:50,010 --> 00:23:58,910
agriculture and other business that really drive economic activity in our community?

181
00:24:46,210 --> 00:24:57,290
So I think it's great to get input and have the code, for example, was a member of the steering

182
00:24:57,290 --> 00:25:06,630
in committee, but I do see some disconnects between what agriculture, for example, needs

183
00:25:06,630 --> 00:25:17,710
and is doing through, you know, state initiatives, et cetera, to facilitate that key business.

184
00:25:17,710 --> 00:25:27,790
And it's highlighted in the plan as an important creator,

185
00:25:28,130 --> 00:25:30,890
economic activity in our county.

186
00:25:31,170 --> 00:25:38,410
But there's little in the action plans that I see

187
00:25:38,410 --> 00:25:42,230
that align with other initiatives that they seem to be.

188
00:25:42,330 --> 00:25:46,890
And I was just thinking, well, why did they not step up?

189
00:25:46,890 --> 00:25:56,850
probably maybe, or where they not reached out to directly to see, hey, what are your needs in a comprehensive plan?

190
00:26:16,890 --> 00:26:19,470
I'm talking to them specifically.

191
00:26:20,090 --> 00:26:22,070
I am in the middle of the name.

192
00:26:23,890 --> 00:26:26,250
In the title of the champion's honor,

193
00:26:26,810 --> 00:26:30,190
I don't drive a 18-year-old generation.

194
00:26:31,050 --> 00:26:33,250
On the left, I am in the top kicker

195
00:26:33,250 --> 00:26:35,230
that you can prove to me.

196
00:26:35,910 --> 00:26:39,690
And I need a very old job to be the 10th, 20th,

197
00:26:39,770 --> 00:26:41,930
and not a way to prove to my class.

198
00:26:42,450 --> 00:26:43,870
So we don't know the difference.

199
00:27:01,670 --> 00:27:12,990
You know, I agree with what Commissioner Sally's saying, and you know, especially if we look sort of towards Hila, which I'm a little more familiar with as far as agriculture.

200
00:27:12,990 --> 00:27:18,370
culture and you know we look at you know economic development especially our

201
00:27:18,370 --> 00:27:22,730
farmers markets all that and then you know we look on on both sides share with

202
00:27:22,730 --> 00:27:28,570
with you know cattle industry I think we're a little weak in that area and so I

203
00:27:28,570 --> 00:27:32,790
I really agree with with our commissioner here but you know one thing that I'm

204
00:27:32,790 --> 00:27:39,490
real happy with is is looking at this comprehensive plan is that our staff and

205
00:27:39,490 --> 00:27:43,750
our county manager have done a great job because a lot that's what's listed on here

206
00:27:44,110 --> 00:27:49,770
is already being worked on and we have looked at and and done something especially with

207
00:27:49,770 --> 00:27:54,850
their you know trails and and other you know economic development and all that so I'm

208
00:27:54,850 --> 00:28:02,010
real happy about all that but I'm like Commissioner Sally I think one of the week misses is there

209
00:28:02,470 --> 00:28:09,150
but at the end of the day it's a good plan and I don't know if our county managers good

210
00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:13,710
with with that or with our plan and and our deputy county manager.

211
00:28:14,830 --> 00:28:19,250
I have a little to Joseph and I really they did the happy lifting on this plan.

212
00:28:19,790 --> 00:28:23,990
I I agree with your comments and Commissioner Shelley's comments and we did push back a little bit.

213
00:28:24,090 --> 00:28:27,430
That was one of the items that I directed.

214
00:28:28,750 --> 00:28:32,950
I'm here in Joseph chair to leave focus on is because we have missed the agriculture component

215
00:28:32,950 --> 00:28:38,550
and other plans. I honestly think they probably gave it their best shot and I'm not sure

216
00:28:39,150 --> 00:28:41,610
You know, who else we could pry information out of,

217
00:28:41,750 --> 00:28:44,310
but I do think that Denise did a good job

218
00:28:44,310 --> 00:28:46,410
of capturing what we could in there,

219
00:28:46,570 --> 00:28:49,130
but maybe it's just real for improvement in the future.

220
00:28:51,110 --> 00:28:52,490
What's an important plan?

221
00:28:53,010 --> 00:28:55,430
We need a comprehensive plan.

222
00:28:55,570 --> 00:28:58,450
I think Bo Han and Houston did a good job

223
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:03,910
and did what we asked them to do.

224
00:29:04,550 --> 00:29:09,050
And so did you, all the staff and county employees

225
00:29:09,150 --> 00:29:21,810
that contributed to it. So anyway, I'm glad there's a lot in the plan too that we all absolutely

226
00:29:21,810 --> 00:29:32,310
depend on, which I was really happy to see roads being a top priority for what we should be doing

227
00:29:32,310 --> 00:29:37,690
And I think that is the key thing that the county does focus on or tries to do.

228
00:29:40,410 --> 00:29:43,250
So there's a lot of good in the plan.

229
00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:50,290
I'm not trying to be

230
00:29:52,500 --> 00:29:59,320
too negative on it, but absolutely there's hopefully, if there's flexibility in it, we can improve.

231
00:30:00,140 --> 00:30:11,300
The thought that goes into what key industries that our community absolutely depends on and

232
00:30:11,300 --> 00:30:20,720
what their needs are and if the county can steer things in ways that help those industries

233
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:26,280
survive. Tough things like we're going through right now with hopefully the droughts over

234
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:32,660
a little bit. Thank you. Thank you, Commissioner. Anybody help? Commissioner Stevens.

235
00:30:33,980 --> 00:30:40,180
Thank you, Chairman. I just wanted to express appreciation for the professionalism of this plan.

236
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:46,760
I read through the Comprehensive Plan and thought it was well laid out. I'm particularly interested in

237
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:55,420
kind of the big overarching view of like population changes and like skilled workforce retention

238
00:30:55,420 --> 00:31:13,820
and development and I think that this plan will be very useful as you point it out when we are seeking funding or applying for grants, we can go back to this plan and we have some nice data and it will help make our case.

239
00:31:14,420 --> 00:31:15,660
So thank you for your work.

240
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:18,420
Thank you.

241
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:22,140
Thank you.

242
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,140
We're done with questions, so thank you.

243
00:31:28,300 --> 00:31:29,140
You too.

244
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,020
Moving on to next item of the agenda will be the Grand County

245
00:31:34,020 --> 00:31:37,900
King of Regional Medical Center Board of Trustees Cordley Report

246
00:31:37,900 --> 00:31:42,380
and we have a new chair, Mr. Trader. Congratulations.

247
00:31:43,620 --> 00:31:44,480
Thank you.

248
00:31:44,980 --> 00:31:47,440
More Mr. Chairman, County commissioners.

249
00:31:48,140 --> 00:31:51,520
Excited to be here and just report out on how the hospital is doing

250
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:56,080
First off, we're excited to work with Ken Petronik and Christopher Bulk, a new board member

251
00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:02,260
and draw on their experience and work both professionally and their time at the hospital.

252
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:03,780
So be a good addition for us.

253
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:09,860
We'll click on just a couple minutes and start off by talking about recent hospital successes

254
00:32:09,860 --> 00:32:11,160
more on the quality side.

255
00:32:11,860 --> 00:32:17,600
You may or may not have heard, but the hospital was recognized recently as, and I'm going

256
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:21,540
read a bit from backers, which is a hospital review magazine, but they will recognize

257
00:32:21,540 --> 00:32:28,620
as one of 183 hospitals across the country, where both physicians and nurses will

258
00:32:28,620 --> 00:32:34,620
recognize with five stars of five star level communication, and those ratings came

259
00:32:34,620 --> 00:32:41,540
out of reports from CMS, which is the Center for Medicare Medicaid, and so they will both

260
00:32:41,540 --> 00:32:45,840
recognize, want to make sure we recognize our physicians, providers and nurses for that,

261
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,600
for having great communication.

262
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,300
So real quick, just reading out of the back,

263
00:32:49,340 --> 00:32:53,680
there's just talking real quicks on the position side, right?

264
00:32:53,940 --> 00:32:56,320
So it says, summarizes how well patients feel

265
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,420
their positions, explain things clearly.

266
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,260
Listen carefully to them and true them

267
00:33:01,260 --> 00:33:02,280
with courtesy and respect.

268
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,680
So that's awesome, it's fantastic, making sure

269
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,220
that what our physicians, providers and nurses

270
00:33:09,220 --> 00:33:12,500
are doing for our patients and taking care of them

271
00:33:12,500 --> 00:33:13,900
and helping them with success.

272
00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:19,480
Also recently the hospital went through it's not even an annual, but it joint

273
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:24,980
commission survey. So it completed the recent CMS joint commission survey, audit

274
00:33:24,980 --> 00:33:31,460
findings have been worked on or completed, I believe that's the right word. So they've gone and

275
00:33:31,460 --> 00:33:37,340
gotten that done. And then also in the last quarter, the emergency department has

276
00:33:37,340 --> 00:33:42,500
changed out its provider for emergency doctors. So it's gone in vitality and it

277
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:48,700
It seems the feedback that we've heard so far is that there's better scheduling with emergency

278
00:33:48,700 --> 00:33:51,960
room doctors and also better care that the patients are receiving.

279
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,840
So quick return on time, better care, and it seems like it's been a good success switching

280
00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:00,180
away from the previous provider and getting the new provider into the emergency department.

281
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,900
Also switching over to financial.

282
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:09,600
One thing that we as the board, you know, monitor and watch out for is that the hospital operates

283
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:10,420
in the block.

284
00:34:10,420 --> 00:34:18,180
And so when I say that, it's making sure that the hospital is in the black from an operating perspective

285
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:24,980
before adding in different grants and funds, whether that comes from the New Mexico state legislature,

286
00:34:25,260 --> 00:34:29,240
when they have grants and things like that out there from time to time, or even right now,

287
00:34:29,240 --> 00:34:35,800
where the HDA funds are adding significant amounts to help the hospital build its cash position.

288
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:40,140
And so, you know, glad to say that closing out is fiscal year at the end of June, again,

289
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:45,300
the hospital had a slight margin in the block and just, you know, operating a stance

290
00:34:45,300 --> 00:34:49,820
where if those grant money went away, the hospital was still operational functional, which

291
00:34:49,820 --> 00:34:50,400
is good to say.

292
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:57,260
That being said, we also approved the Board of Proof, the Mending 2026 fiscal budget, so

293
00:34:57,260 --> 00:35:00,920
that's done and then they'll start working with their auditors to get that audit component

294
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,940
and get that approved since that's something that the county will also need.

295
00:35:05,620 --> 00:35:11,700
And then lastly, just, you may have heard from Mr. Whitaker just reiterate that the hospitals

296
00:35:11,700 --> 00:35:14,760
past year spent $13 million in capital.

297
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:23,420
That was $45 million of that was in just equipment, building improvements, things like that,

298
00:35:23,620 --> 00:35:30,560
which is great to see that year over year, ability to reinvest in the hospital where in the

299
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,780
pass, you know, looking at historical figures going on the state

300
00:35:33,780 --> 00:35:36,320
auditor's website and seeing where it felt like there wasn't much

301
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,600
money going back in the hospital, trying to build it just slowly

302
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,800
over the over the over the year to chip away and just add that

303
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,280
capital investment back in the hospital is a great opportunity.

304
00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:49,800
Also, you're probably aware that recently the hospital acquired

305
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:54,780
the Silver Healthcare Office space, and it's the two facilities

306
00:35:54,780 --> 00:35:57,480
the one that's right here just down here and the one that's off the

307
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:02,900
bypass road, 32nd Street. That facility, what they operate there with

308
00:36:02,900 --> 00:36:06,640
civil healthcare, they will continue to remain there on standalone clinic and

309
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,940
run their own space and lease that out through the hospital, but the facility down

310
00:36:10,940 --> 00:36:15,760
the hill here, you know, the plan is to have primary care come up here, they'll run

311
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,920
there, be out of that office space and then down the road have a resident

312
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:24,160
position, that program gets up and running with HMS and you and them and then

313
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,780
and also work on putting in a after-hours care clinic,

314
00:36:28,940 --> 00:36:30,700
slash urgent care, where people can come in

315
00:36:30,700 --> 00:36:33,040
and have more access to urgent care needs

316
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,280
and not need to join the ER.

317
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,860
That's the only place that's available.

318
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,160
Then lastly, just kind of going through a few things,

319
00:36:41,620 --> 00:36:42,860
we're fortunate in this community

320
00:36:42,860 --> 00:36:44,200
to have a good, real hospital week.

321
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,220
Mr. Whitaker and Mr. Tina worked on provider retention,

322
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,320
but also recruiting new providers such as primary care,

323
00:36:52,320 --> 00:37:01,060
the urologists working on he and Dr. Fox are working on the residency program with each

324
00:37:01,060 --> 00:37:06,300
of us and others and UNM and just it's in a good fit financial shape and continue to move forward

325
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:07,800
and that's my report.

326
00:37:09,830 --> 00:37:11,670
Thank you appreciate what you guys do,

327
00:37:11,710 --> 00:37:17,870
commissioners do you have any questions? Commissioner Frodo's? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

328
00:37:20,350 --> 00:37:30,090
Mr. Shader, from my curiosity, what was the reason there was an idea of purchasing silver

329
00:37:30,090 --> 00:37:36,110
healthcare, and then even stir the way they are, what benefit was that to the hospital

330
00:37:36,110 --> 00:37:36,630
and us?

331
00:37:37,730 --> 00:37:44,570
So, it does a couple of things, I mean, my experience in the Silver Healthcare space they had been

332
00:37:44,570 --> 00:37:51,230
looking for a buyer for some time. But what it does is the you know it's out there in the past

333
00:37:51,230 --> 00:37:56,870
it's been made known that the hospital hasn't looked at architect plans for you know do we

334
00:37:57,890 --> 00:38:03,630
rehab accept the current hospital and put in a new hospital and what that does is you know even

335
00:38:03,630 --> 00:38:10,250
with the space here you get to open up how much hospital space would be needed depending on which

336
00:38:10,250 --> 00:38:12,230
to route is taken forward to future possible.

337
00:38:12,370 --> 00:38:13,630
So it also helps in my case,

338
00:38:14,450 --> 00:38:16,630
alleviate and minimize, you know,

339
00:38:16,790 --> 00:38:17,810
starting to reduce, you know,

340
00:38:17,970 --> 00:38:19,110
where a provider should be located

341
00:38:19,110 --> 00:38:20,630
and how much space would be needed

342
00:38:20,630 --> 00:38:21,750
for future clients,

343
00:38:21,930 --> 00:38:22,750
I don't know where that was.

344
00:38:23,550 --> 00:38:23,910
Okay.

345
00:38:24,170 --> 00:38:25,370
And my second question is

346
00:38:25,370 --> 00:38:26,990
I know I talked to Mr. Wilcoe

347
00:38:27,710 --> 00:38:29,030
right a month or two ago.

348
00:38:30,730 --> 00:38:31,970
Do you guys have a plan,

349
00:38:32,210 --> 00:38:34,650
or will we have a plan with providing

350
00:38:34,650 --> 00:38:38,130
the provider out in the roof

351
00:38:38,130 --> 00:38:48,530
and in the area, maybe two days a week or a facility there for those folks so they didn't have to come out around to serve a studio tenderlooms and medical attention.

352
00:38:49,290 --> 00:38:50,150
And let's discuss that.

353
00:38:51,710 --> 00:38:56,970
We are not, so you're talking about kind of life where they go to the Lord's World, they go down there once a week.

354
00:38:57,550 --> 00:39:04,770
Yeah, something similar out there in the healer so that, you know, there's a primary composition that you're providing for someone who's in shock prepared.

355
00:39:06,030 --> 00:39:12,590
Yes, let me add that to a note and we can, when we meet with Mr. Wetter, we've been part of that conversation.

356
00:39:13,190 --> 00:39:16,990
And I have that conversation with him and we're just, I appreciate the fact that we have.

357
00:39:17,110 --> 00:39:17,730
Thank you.

358
00:39:18,030 --> 00:39:18,270
Thank you.

359
00:39:18,530 --> 00:39:19,190
Mr. Chair.

360
00:39:19,930 --> 00:39:20,370
Thank you.

361
00:39:20,990 --> 00:39:21,230
Thank you.

362
00:39:21,970 --> 00:39:22,370
Anything?

363
00:39:27,350 --> 00:39:27,830
Okay.

364
00:39:28,250 --> 00:39:37,610
Moving on to the next item will be a public hearing regarding the ordinance number 0-26-01 and title.

366
00:39:43,190 --> 00:39:54,970

367
00:39:54,970 --> 00:40:04,070
a motion to open the public hearing and discussion regarding ordinance number 026, that's 01, 2026,

368
00:40:04,070 --> 00:40:06,490
Okay, it's General Obligation Bond-Board-Nits.

369
00:40:06,770 --> 00:40:09,610
Mr. Bush, I'll give it to you.

370
00:40:09,790 --> 00:40:11,330
Yes, sir.

371
00:40:12,110 --> 00:40:15,170
Okay, so I'm motioned by Belitos Commissioner Minina,

00:40:15,290 --> 00:40:17,370

373
00:40:17,370 --> 00:40:18,630
and we have any discussion.

374
00:40:21,410 --> 00:40:22,390
Okay, see none.

375
00:40:22,810 --> 00:40:23,850
All those in favor?

376
00:40:24,170 --> 00:40:24,590
All right.

377
00:40:25,070 --> 00:40:25,990
All right, motion carries.

378
00:40:27,130 --> 00:40:31,650
Are you good to testify, I guess?

379
00:40:32,570 --> 00:40:34,990
Are you, I'm going to answer any questions

380
00:40:34,990 --> 00:40:41,510
you have, Mr. Chairman. Please raise your hand please, sir. Do you swear

381
00:40:41,510 --> 00:40:47,750
or affirm that the testimony which you're about to give will be the two underpinner and the penalty

382
00:40:47,750 --> 00:40:54,770

383
00:40:54,770 --> 00:41:02,150
commissioners kind of manager. Well, in front of you this morning is a bond ordinance that authorizes

384
00:41:02,150 --> 00:41:07,790
is the issuance of $3.5 million of general obligation bonds. These bonds were approved

385
00:41:07,790 --> 00:41:13,970
by voters on November 2022. This is the last available authorization that was approved

386
00:41:13,970 --> 00:41:21,530
by voters. And so the document in front of you would allow and delegate authority to your

387
00:41:21,530 --> 00:41:27,310
county manager to start taking all the actions necessary to sell those bonds. And so we would

388
00:41:27,310 --> 00:41:35,410
start with your approval here, start to move through the process with all the legal documents and all the processes that we have to go through in order to do that.

389
00:41:35,570 --> 00:41:41,610
So Mr. Chairman, I'll stop there with my comments and I'm happy to answer any year questions or those of the commissioners.

390
00:41:41,610 --> 00:41:44,190
If you have any questions,

391
00:41:46,660 --> 00:41:52,600
okay, do we have anyone else that would like to testify anyone

392
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:01,120

393
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,040
I see no other questions from my commission.

394
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:04,320
Thank you.

395
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,380
Okay, we can have a motion to close the public, public hearing?

Second.

398
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:12,220
It's our motion by commissioners.

00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:13,480

00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,480

00:42:21,460 --> 00:42:24,180
Motion carries, public hearing is closed.

Do we have any discussion?

415
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,480
Madam Clerk, can I have a roll call vote please?

416
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:53,740
please.

417
00:42:55,180 --> 00:43:02,020
I am currently voting on ordinance number 0-26-1.

00:43:02,980 --> 00:43:05,760

423
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:12,820
Commissioner Shelley?

424
00:43:13,260 --> 00:43:13,540
Yes.

425
00:43:13,740 --> 00:43:14,460
Commissioner Steven?

426
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:15,080
Yes.

427
00:43:15,300 --> 00:43:16,040
Commissioner Flaz.

428
00:43:16,240 --> 00:43:16,400
Yes.

429
00:43:18,750 --> 00:43:19,590
Thank you, Madam Clerk.

430
00:43:20,410 --> 00:43:28,020
with the one-inch passes. Thank you, Mr. Carey. Thank you.

431
00:43:29,540 --> 00:43:34,580
Okay, moving on to elected official reports. Madam Clerk, the other report.

432
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:45,560
Moving on to our treasurer, the one-internet, one-said, commissioners, county manager, county manager staff.

433
00:43:47,060 --> 00:43:49,540
Attached, they did provide you with the tax maintenance.

434
00:43:49,540 --> 00:44:18,360
Import for the further amount of taxes collected for the month of July was $212,432.79, so far for the 2025 tax roll, $16,455,218 has been collected, but still the county had a collection percentage of $9.61% for the 25 tax roll.

435
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:28,900
For the total 2025 tax roll, 1,536,945 dollars and 20 cents remains uncollected.

436
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:37,380
The total percentage collected for the total tenure collection, as of July 31st, is 95.70%.

437
00:44:37,380 --> 00:44:46,420
I bet a total of 127 million, 245 thousand, $41.54 of taxes have been collected, that leaves

438
00:44:46,420 --> 00:44:54,480
a total uncollected balance of taxes of 5 million, 714 thousand, $638.74.

439
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,900
Status of the Treasurer's Office, we did have a huge success.

440
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:29,180
Some collections on the de-requencing notices that were sent out in June. I do want to thank the commission for advocating my printing budget to make this happen. I did change the de-requencing notice, which I did outsource to our vendor that produces our tax bills. And it did get a lot of response from the taxpayers to coming in and paying their taxes.

441
00:45:29,180 --> 00:45:32,560
I guess the color, I don't know, it just got their attention.

442
00:45:34,500 --> 00:45:42,580
For July 1st, there was about 354 people that were on the PTD list, for me to be transferred

443
00:45:42,580 --> 00:45:52,060
to them for auction, and out of that I was down, I reported 129 property tax that were

444
00:45:52,060 --> 00:45:57,140
sent out to property tax division for having a 3-year delinquency with the county.

445
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:04,420
Now penalty and interest are now be paid to the property tax division along with the cost of state fee that was added

446
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,380
When payments made on these property tax accounts

447
00:46:12,710 --> 00:46:19,950
We will be having a tax auction that set for August the 26th at 10 o'clock here in the commission meeting room

448
00:46:19,950 --> 00:46:27,270
Property tax division will be here at 8 o'clock in the morning to register interested

449
00:46:27,930 --> 00:46:36,050
people want me to make bids and I do know that they have published the

450
00:46:36,050 --> 00:46:42,370
end of the Daily Press the list of properties that are on that

451
00:46:42,370 --> 00:46:45,350
the frequent list two times in the Daily Press.

452
00:46:47,770 --> 00:46:49,870
I do want to welcome my new

453
00:46:49,870 --> 00:46:55,890
chief deputy Angelina Duncan and she's been a great asset to the office and I

454
00:46:55,890 --> 00:46:57,270
I stand for any questions.

455
00:46:59,410 --> 00:47:00,830
Commissioner, do we have any questions?

456
00:47:03,230 --> 00:47:03,650
Thank you.

457
00:47:05,030 --> 00:47:07,210
It's moving on to Sherfian Ola.

458
00:47:07,830 --> 00:47:08,770
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

459
00:47:09,190 --> 00:47:12,910
Mr. Smith, I'm getting my staff report for the month of July, 2026.

460
00:47:13,530 --> 00:47:18,090
In the month, we had a poll called around 1692,

461
00:47:18,090 --> 00:47:20,790
which includes self-initiated calls.

462
00:47:21,170 --> 00:47:26,330
Just to blow over a few calls, are we investigating during that time frame?

463
00:47:26,330 --> 00:47:35,470
We have a total of 67 accidents, traffic crashes, which 13 involved injuries and 54 were non-injuries.

464
00:47:35,970 --> 00:47:43,930
That's kind of high for this time frame, but a lot of them are involving deer and elk, so animals.

465
00:47:44,830 --> 00:47:50,070
So those are kind of unpreventable because of the animals just coming out.

466
00:47:50,070 --> 00:47:56,730
We did also investigate a aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

467
00:47:57,490 --> 00:47:59,870
We had a total of eight burglaries that were investigating.

468
00:48:00,470 --> 00:48:04,090
We investigated 35 domestic disturbances.

469
00:48:04,590 --> 00:48:07,530
We had a total of five DWIs within the month.

470
00:48:08,590 --> 00:48:13,530
We served 22 DVOs, which are domestic violence orders.

471
00:48:14,330 --> 00:48:17,090
We had 18 suicide threats.

472
00:48:17,090 --> 00:48:26,290
We investigated. There was a total of 326 traffic stops done during the month. We had

473
00:48:26,290 --> 00:48:33,510
nine unattended deaths. We did have the case of frequent patrol, which includes college

474
00:48:33,510 --> 00:48:41,530
sand, bare mountain, rosedale, racetrack, ridge road, little warmer, the clipy area, a total

475
00:48:41,530 --> 00:48:50,430
of 187 patrols in those areas looking for speeding traffic and any violations that were involved in those

476
00:48:50,430 --> 00:48:50,970
locations.

477
00:48:54,750 --> 00:49:00,070
That's pretty much it on that. I didn't want to go over a case of interest which was

478
00:49:00,070 --> 00:49:09,510
on July 4th, 2026 approximately 6 p.m. Charis deputies responded to Mangus Terrace RV and Mobile Home Park

479
00:49:09,510 --> 00:49:15,650
in reference to a reported aggravated battery. Upon arrival, deputies contacted the victim who

480
00:49:15,650 --> 00:49:19,870
reported she had been physically assaulted by Everett Monday following a verbal

481
00:49:19,870 --> 00:49:24,630
application. The victim stated Monday placed both hands around her neck and strangled her

482
00:49:24,630 --> 00:49:29,430
during the assault. Deputies observed visible injuries consistent with the reported assault

483
00:49:29,430 --> 00:49:34,170
and documented those injuries. Deputies also spoke to awareness who reported

484
00:49:34,170 --> 00:49:38,890
observing the altercation and interviewing to stop the assault. The witness advised he

485
00:49:38,890 --> 00:49:43,890
basically had to separate Monday from the victim and instructed Monday to leave the property.

486
00:49:44,810 --> 00:49:49,210
Monday was taken into custody and transported to Healer Regional for medical clearance,

487
00:49:49,530 --> 00:49:55,670
private booking, and while he was at the hospital, he became combative and assaulted some of the

488
00:49:55,670 --> 00:50:03,090
healthcare workers and hospital security. Monday was subsequently transported to the Grand

489
00:50:03,090 --> 00:50:06,510
County Sheriff's Office and later booked into the Grand County Detention Center.

490
00:50:07,490 --> 00:50:18,110
With that being said, he was charged with two counts of battery and a health care worker, two counts of assault upon a health care worker, one count of aggravated battery and one count of disorderly conduct.

491
00:50:19,190 --> 00:50:27,790
On July 16th, Grand County Sheriff's Deputies assisted the Civil City Police Department with a harassment complaint that occurred outside the Civil City town limits.

492
00:50:28,450 --> 00:50:35,350
During the investigation deputies learned the reporting parties had received threatening messages from an individual and reported the individual.

493
00:50:35,350 --> 00:50:39,690
Joe had followed them in his vehicle and displayed a firearm in a separate incident.

494
00:50:40,410 --> 00:50:44,490
To do the reported threats and actions, deputies attempted to locate the individual.

495
00:50:45,210 --> 00:50:49,910
At approximately 10.30 p.m., deputies located the individual's vehicle at his residence,

496
00:50:50,490 --> 00:50:53,890
while approaching the residence, deputies heard each single gunshot.

497
00:50:54,650 --> 00:51:00,210
Deputies located the individual inside his vehicle, suffering what appeared to be a self-inflicted

498
00:51:00,210 --> 00:51:00,970
gunshot wound.

499
00:51:00,970 --> 00:51:07,230
A firearm was recovered and deputies provided medical assistance until emergency personnel arrived.

500
00:51:10,010 --> 00:51:16,450
So those were some of the things that they did with, just want to put it out to a public how,

501
00:51:16,830 --> 00:51:21,510
what kind of work these guys are dealing with, the seriousness of the crimes that we have.

502
00:51:22,490 --> 00:51:30,050
So I just want to recognize the staff for what they do day in and day out because of the severity of the crimes

503
00:51:30,050 --> 00:51:37,450
that they're dealing with. I also did want to recognize Scott Ford. On August the 4th during

504
00:51:37,450 --> 00:51:42,970
the, during the ring storm, we had our, our, our PA and repeat it go down which is our

505
00:51:42,970 --> 00:51:49,250
communication with this batch and our law enforcement. I want to recognize them for being available

506
00:51:49,250 --> 00:51:54,930
to us that evening. I got called that we were in a group that we didn't have that communication

507
00:51:54,930 --> 00:51:57,910
and that's a public safety for our community

508
00:51:57,910 --> 00:52:02,430
and our non-forcement officers without having that repeater.

509
00:52:02,690 --> 00:52:05,850
So I want to recognize him for being available.

510
00:52:06,170 --> 00:52:09,950
He was able to go up and check that repeater out.

511
00:52:10,430 --> 00:52:12,870
Was able to get it back up and running within an hour,

512
00:52:12,970 --> 00:52:13,350
two hours.

513
00:52:13,630 --> 00:52:16,810
So I want to thank him for being available to us

514
00:52:16,810 --> 00:52:18,750
and being getting that taken care of.

515
00:52:19,490 --> 00:52:21,450
Other than that, I have nothing else to report.

516
00:52:21,590 --> 00:52:22,550
Unless you have any questions.

517
00:52:24,490 --> 00:52:27,530
any questions, commissioners? Go ahead to the commission within.

518
00:52:28,250 --> 00:52:32,070
Sure, so the one particular occasion discussed with the staff,

519
00:52:32,410 --> 00:52:35,530
the gunshower, you know, we tied along back in on Monday,

520
00:52:35,570 --> 00:52:39,270
I had a couple other gunshots. I just want you to express to your staff that,

521
00:52:39,410 --> 00:52:42,750
that the decays that responded to those calls, they are amazing.

522
00:52:44,030 --> 00:52:46,690
The UNS people were like, you know, the old world running,

523
00:52:46,850 --> 00:52:48,490
the police are all running, the police are not running their way

524
00:52:48,490 --> 00:52:51,530
and, you know, they have control believing on the other end of the gun.

525
00:52:51,530 --> 00:52:55,030
and we're stepping up and doing something that's probably out of the scope of practice,

526
00:52:55,530 --> 00:52:59,190
but they're doing it and they're providing another level of care for the citizens.

527
00:52:59,550 --> 00:53:04,590
So just to push, thanks to them and the gratitude, because they're making an impact up.

528
00:53:04,770 --> 00:53:08,130
But you may think that, you know, we've had this discussion about this trauma,

529
00:53:08,270 --> 00:53:11,010
but you purchased them and they're small and they don't work.

530
00:53:11,470 --> 00:53:14,390
They work in the instant that they work that manuals can get through.

531
00:53:14,590 --> 00:53:15,630
They really take care of business.

532
00:53:15,930 --> 00:53:17,270
Just Tom, thank you very much.

533
00:53:17,850 --> 00:53:18,850
Thank you, Commissioner.

534
00:53:18,850 --> 00:53:19,390
I don't know.

535
00:53:20,410 --> 00:53:20,790
I don't know.

536
00:53:20,790 --> 00:53:22,130
Oh, I got it.

537
00:53:22,150 --> 00:53:23,050
Commissioner Furnish.

538
00:53:24,130 --> 00:53:24,890
Thank you, Mr. Chair.

539
00:53:25,550 --> 00:53:29,430
Chair, I'm just a couple of their folks at Kowloon.

540
00:53:29,950 --> 00:53:31,950
I appreciate how they put trails throughout the county.

541
00:53:32,230 --> 00:53:34,970
And kind of people call me from their rock.

542
00:53:35,810 --> 00:53:39,330
And particularly the Red Rock County and Brown Round Road.

543
00:53:39,970 --> 00:53:43,270
First of all, the villagers drive it and run the roads.

544
00:53:43,670 --> 00:53:44,550
Still in packages.

545
00:53:45,210 --> 00:53:46,670
I've received requests and perics.

546
00:53:46,670 --> 00:53:53,190
are leaving them at the gate instead of going to the house, and I guess these people see that

547
00:53:53,190 --> 00:53:59,050
pattern, and they've taken some pretty big things, but the last one's asked you, maybe

548
00:53:59,050 --> 00:54:05,350
you can just say that they're there, they start seeing that the ambulance part, but everyone's

549
00:54:05,350 --> 00:54:11,910
going out, they're probably detergent those. Also, last month, we had some things come in

550
00:54:11,910 --> 00:54:16,890
from local estates, talking about the joke banks of the trips.

551
00:54:17,810 --> 00:54:20,210
And I appreciate that they sent in the Redlands out to us.

552
00:54:20,210 --> 00:54:21,390
We have the Redlands already.

553
00:54:22,070 --> 00:54:24,250
But it's the Redlands that covers that.

554
00:54:24,690 --> 00:54:25,450
But engine brake.

555
00:54:26,270 --> 00:54:28,150
And it's 9.8.0.7.

556
00:54:28,310 --> 00:54:29,350
That's for a team that's showing.

557
00:54:30,150 --> 00:54:32,130
Maybe if you can have some deputies out there,

558
00:54:32,850 --> 00:54:33,770
just learn that structure,

559
00:54:34,070 --> 00:54:37,010
and it's so clear about them to the bypass.

560
00:54:38,150 --> 00:54:39,250
And I think if you stop there,

561
00:54:39,250 --> 00:54:43,890
to have some of the message that I was from the folks in the work we're talking about

562
00:54:44,550 --> 00:54:52,970
by a percentage of us and we're not about to ask for it, I can't understand the noise

563
00:54:52,970 --> 00:54:53,370
issue.

564
00:54:53,970 --> 00:54:55,850
What can you do after me, I appreciate it.

565
00:54:56,830 --> 00:55:00,710
Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Ford, I will take care of that.

566
00:55:01,050 --> 00:55:01,290
Thank you.

567
00:55:03,670 --> 00:55:04,410
Thank you.

568
00:55:06,030 --> 00:55:06,870
Anything else?

569
00:55:06,870 --> 00:55:09,670
Thank you, sir.

570
00:55:11,740 --> 00:55:14,560
Moving on to the next item is a consent agenda.

571
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:17,400

So, motion by Commissioner Medina, second by Commissioner Flores.

Under item O, agreement.

591
00:56:29,930 --> 00:56:32,070

Motion to approve?

593
00:56:37,610 --> 00:56:38,130
Second.

594
00:56:38,670 --> 00:56:41,750
So, motion by Commissioner Stevens, second by Commissioner Flores.

595
00:56:42,490 --> 00:56:43,670

600

00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:13,920
Second. So motion by Commissioner Steven second by Commissioner Medina. Do we have any discussion?

602
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:13,940

603
00:57:13,940 --> 00:57:14,920

Motion to approve.

608
00:57:30,490 --> 00:57:30,830
Where?

609
00:57:31,370 --> 00:57:32,990
Motion by Commissioner Shelley,

610
00:57:33,310 --> 00:57:34,650
second by Commissioner Medina.

611
00:57:35,490 --> 00:57:36,450
Do we have any discussion?

612
00:57:39,730 --> 00:57:40,190
Aye.

613
00:57:42,130 --> 00:57:42,290
Aye.

614
00:57:42,470 --> 00:57:43,170
Motion carries.

00:57:43,830 --> 00:57:45,550
Move in the motion under I.

616
00:57:45,670 --> 00:57:46,090
R.

617
00:57:46,610 --> 00:57:49,210
D. R.

618
00:57:49,210 --> 00:57:55,650
40. Motion to approve resolution R-2640.

619
00:57:56,670 --> 00:57:57,410
Second.

620
00:57:58,790 --> 00:58:03,250
Case out of the motion by Commissioner Shelley and I have a second by Commissioner Stevens.

621
00:58:03,950 --> 00:58:08,910
This is basically not approving the resolution just the start of the resolution correct.

622
00:58:09,450 --> 00:58:13,650
This is the resolution that provides you one notice that intent to consider the ordinance.

623
00:58:13,650 --> 00:58:19,790
considered right. So, it just used to me out with the approval ordinance part, but that's fine.

624
00:58:20,610 --> 00:58:25,610
The zones were worth there. All right. Any further discussion?

625
00:58:25,910 --> 00:58:26,990
Quick question. Yes.

626
00:58:27,270 --> 00:58:32,470
This manager in the event that we don't have this taking care of by the start of September's

627
00:58:32,470 --> 00:58:38,150
understanding. You guys want to hope that you rates? How's that been impact the county?

628
00:58:38,230 --> 00:58:40,890
We're not ready. Document-wise and everything-wise.

629
00:58:40,890 --> 00:58:44,430
Is the county going to pick up that first month of fees, but what happens?

630
00:58:44,930 --> 00:58:50,990
Yes, so if we don't get all of these items in place, we're going to be charged to increase some amount of fees.

631
00:58:51,990 --> 00:58:53,930
And that's countywide about 20s out.

632
00:58:55,070 --> 00:58:57,370
For us, our portion will be...

633
00:58:57,370 --> 00:59:00,710
I don't know what that amount is at this point, but it's...

634
00:59:00,710 --> 00:59:04,030
It's no different than the other increases we've received over the years.

635
00:59:04,270 --> 00:59:06,610
Like dipping fees go up or hauling fees go up.

636
00:59:07,430 --> 00:59:12,470
So we are currently a part of the Joint Powers Authority.

637
00:59:12,950 --> 00:59:17,690
The Southwest Solid Waste Authority has the authority

638
00:59:17,690 --> 00:59:19,210
to increase those rates.

639
00:59:20,330 --> 00:59:24,630
The agreement that I mentioned on Tuesday is an extra layer

640
00:59:24,630 --> 00:59:31,110
that gives us, it spells out things in a clearer fashion

641
00:59:31,110 --> 00:59:33,410
than the bigness that's in the GPA.

642
00:59:35,270 --> 00:59:46,490
So that's where, as I mentioned, there's one section that I just need a little more clarification on and I'll have that ready for you to go to the end of the month.

643
00:59:47,190 --> 00:59:51,070
But I would encourage you to think about entering into an agreement.

644
00:59:51,530 --> 00:59:54,550
It also gives us an out to go with another provider.

645
00:59:54,550 --> 00:59:59,670
we chose outlines our responsibilities, solid waste or

646
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:25,660
Disabilities, talks about what the fees will be, all of those things. What this does, what the ordinance does, is it replaces the antiquated ordinance of 1999, brings us more to what is happening currently. It also gives you that ability to set the fees that are charged to the residents by a resolution.

647
01:00:26,340 --> 01:00:32,620
I know that you mentioned that this is one of your top three projects on your desk, or we have it wrapped up by September.

648
01:00:32,620 --> 01:00:37,000
You see it usually being done or there's no chance for it to be paid.

649
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:40,400
Hopefully that bit.

650
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:46,040
So we have scheduled this for your consideration on the 10th to adopt the ordinance.

651
01:00:46,900 --> 01:00:53,140
And then I will have the agreement to provide you on the 27th agenda.

652
01:00:53,140 --> 01:00:58,640
There is a 14-day period, I believe it called out for 14-day period, for you to receive

653
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:07,480
public input on the increased fees, so it does require us to take public input on the

654
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:08,040
fee increase.

655
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:16,060
I appreciate your efforts on the spankings, so there is a question for me, so publication

656
01:01:16,060 --> 01:01:16,680
of notice.

657
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:22,400
How long does it have to be publicly noticed in whatever newspaper, whatever we do?

658
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:24,460
Are you starting out the ordinance or the fees?

659
01:01:26,220 --> 01:01:27,260
The ordinance.

660
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:33,440
So the ordinance we've met our time frame by having it back in front of you on September the 10th.

661
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:34,840
It's 15 days.

662
01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:37,740
So it's been there for 15 days.

663
01:01:38,380 --> 01:01:44,840
And then my understanding is one of our commission wanted maybe some public input and some discussion

664
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:53,940
And from the public in a setting, that's going to take a little time, so I mean, unless

665
01:01:53,940 --> 01:01:58,800
they're scheduled and I'm in agreement with that, that's going to take some time also.

666
01:01:59,780 --> 01:02:03,640
But anyway, I mean, we can get to that piece and we can start looking at some of these

667
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:03,840
dates.

668
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:10,080
So actually, if you want to do something differently, you need to take action today to amend the

669
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:14,180
language because the language is that you will have your public hearing and

670
01:02:14,180 --> 01:02:18,560
consider the adoption of the ordinance on September 10th. So I'm not sure if your

671
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:25,660
concern is around the language and the ordinance or the fees. Okay. And if you

672
01:02:25,660 --> 01:02:30,340
want to change or if you want to change, you can have as many public hearing

673
01:02:30,340 --> 01:02:37,180
decision want. But right now it states that you will have another you have to have

674
01:02:37,180 --> 01:02:42,820
public hearing, just like you did today on the 10th, but we can schedule others if that's what you choose.

675
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:47,260
Mr. Chair, will we put something around the fees that's going to be a concern?

676
01:02:48,180 --> 01:02:55,320
Well, Commissioner Shelley, what are your thoughts on as far as, I mean, I understand the ordinance,

677
01:02:55,540 --> 01:03:00,360
it's like we have public hearings, but the communication with public.

678
01:03:03,300 --> 01:03:12,820
Well, I see in the process we've discussed so far that, for sure, now that we're announcing

679
01:03:12,820 --> 01:03:17,260
this by this resolution today that, hey, we're going to consider.

680
01:03:19,100 --> 01:03:25,880
But on September 10th, we're not going to be considering the resolution on fees at

681
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:35,500
point unless we do a whole lot of work before them. So I agree with you there's not much time

682
01:03:35,500 --> 01:03:40,880
and I'd like to do this while our county manager is here with us.

683
01:03:44,340 --> 01:03:46,720
But this gives notice to the

684
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:52,640
public and I think it will generate some people coming in here for public comment in our next

685
01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:59,700
in our meetings between now and then, and certainly on that date, and I think that's

686
01:03:59,700 --> 01:04:07,660
good. The only problem I see is that it's going to be from 9 a.m. until 11 or something

687
01:04:07,660 --> 01:04:16,760
like that, and that may not be convenient for people who feel they'd like to have some input.

688
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:25,720
it. So I think we need to consider a few ways like open up some portal where people

689
01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:35,680
can provide comment and try to advertise that maybe through us and but also consider

690
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:46,860
We're having a public meeting at maybe right after September 10th, and it could be before

691
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:57,020
but then that's going to, to get that input and then I just think it's going to be something

692
01:04:57,020 --> 01:05:02,400
that we need to give our community a chance to voice.

693
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:12,040
And if we have that public hearing probably not from nine to noon, probably some time in the evening,

694
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:17,420
and hopefully that will tie up a lot of our county staff to do something like that.

695
01:05:17,700 --> 01:05:21,700
We can definitely work with all of you to schedule some extra public hearings.

696
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:25,240
I think the more opportunity you give the public to comment on this.

697
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:31,860
I can just be more transparent so that we can give them extra opportunities to comment

698
01:05:31,860 --> 01:05:36,640
on the ordinance itself because that's what your public info would be on the ordinance itself.

699
01:05:38,740 --> 01:05:44,300
Then what you consider, so then the next step will be considering the agreement between the county

700
01:05:44,300 --> 01:05:49,500
and the solid waste authority. The last thing you will do is adopt the resolution citing the fees.

701
01:05:49,500 --> 01:05:56,980
We have, we're required to, well, the way that I have that drafted, which I think is what you've made

702
01:05:56,980 --> 01:06:01,800
loud and clear is that you want to be transparent about, you want to get feedback from the public.

703
01:06:02,300 --> 01:06:08,140
So that is requiring 14-day comment period on your proposed rate increase.

704
01:06:09,140 --> 01:06:10,100
So those are the steps.

705
01:06:11,260 --> 01:06:14,180
Let me ask this question real quick.

706
01:06:14,700 --> 01:06:25,680
On the whatever day we said what's up the meeting the 10th September 10th so on September 10th, I mean I understand it and I want you to be good with whatever we do.

707
01:06:26,940 --> 01:06:29,820
But is there an I guess this is a legal question.

708
01:06:29,820 --> 01:06:33,600
We started meeting in the 9 o'clock open up a public hearing.

709
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:37,820
At the end of our meeting, can we recess our meeting?

710
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:40,980
Come back at, for example, 6 o'clock.

711
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:46,140
Open up the meeting for a public hearing again and after the public hearing

712
01:06:46,140 --> 01:06:50,840
adjourned and then you've had your, I don't know if that works for you

713
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:55,100
or this is just an idea so we can get it over with

714
01:06:55,100 --> 01:06:56,380
in that one day.

715
01:06:56,380 --> 01:07:17,200
So we'll have a public hearing during the 9 o'clock meeting and then recess and come back to continue the public hearing at six for maybe giving an up in you guys will have to agree with it say no, that doesn't work for you, but something like that cannot be done.

716
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:29,120
Mr. Chair, commissioners, that's a feasible idea to do, but I think what I would like to understand is the concern of the matter of what you went,

717
01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:37,640
the input and with the babysitter of consent from the citizens, the fees, is that that we're mostly concerned about.

718
01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:43,240
So, the way that evidence is structured, and that's the kind of manager that the hero

719
01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,360
that will have a September 10th is for the ordinance.

720
01:07:46,860 --> 01:07:53,400
So, that is the enacting vow to say, hey, this is going to be a system moving forward.

721
01:07:54,020 --> 01:07:57,120
The provision that you adopt in resolution is that sets the fees.

722
01:07:57,340 --> 01:08:04,220
So, you can have hearings, multiple med hearings, time-ass after the adoption of the ordinance

723
01:08:04,220 --> 01:08:06,700
in order to gather that input on the fees.

724
01:08:06,700 --> 01:08:13,860
But if what you're hearing from the public isn't necessarily concerns about the ordinance itself, because it's an important update that would

725
01:08:13,860 --> 01:08:21,380
stop, and I think most people are in agreement that we need to sound-based changes in our law.

726
01:08:21,980 --> 01:08:31,240
And that's when we never have reviewed, but then that you then have taken to greater consideration from what I'm gathering is the resolution of fees.

727
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:43,340
So, absolutely, between now and the 10th, you can add another agenda on the next move in this month to gather that input as it relates to the ordinance itself.

728
01:08:44,180 --> 01:09:00,420
The lady people can then talk about the fees as well as that thing, but then we follow with the regular hearing as you did with the bond measure this morning for that of the ordinance, and then schedule out additional hearings downhalls for the resolution of the fees.

729
01:09:00,420 --> 01:09:05,740
No, thank you for clarifying, so my thing is a really good work, so I appreciate that.

730
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:12,160
And Chairman Ponzi, thanks for thinking that through Outlast, so we all understand,

731
01:09:13,980 --> 01:09:23,320
I was thinking the same, the way our attorney just explained it, is that probably the most

732
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,260
controversial part will be the themes.

733
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:36,420
However, there could be questions about the ordinance itself, but we're given notice,

734
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:45,460
and so is there a way to get comment on the ordinance itself beforehand?

735
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:54,160
I wasn't thinking the only thing place was for the hearing, that maybe there's a way

736
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:59,340
to publicize it. I think that will happen today.

737
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:08,420
But maybe those who can't come in at nine

738
01:10:08,420 --> 01:10:18,520
could have a way to provide written comments on the ordinance itself also. If they're

739
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:27,540
I'm sure it's posted, so it has to be posted like today, I assume, and aren't we still

740
01:10:27,540 --> 01:10:29,160
doing some changes to it?

741
01:10:31,100 --> 01:10:31,720
Okay.

742
01:10:32,380 --> 01:10:36,240
All right, so I have a question on that.

743
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:43,600
If we ask for written comments, mean that it is a public theme, do we have to poll those

744
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:51,720
written comments and read them to the public in the public meeting and I'm looking at you

745
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:58,760
are either one because now we're asking the public give us written you can give us written comments

746
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:05,720
which is a great idea I don't have a problem with it but being that it's public does somebody get

747
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:12,100
somebody gonna have to put like you know Chris wants his written comment as ABCD read it

748
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:19,180
is that just for our sake. I don't want to get it to that.

749
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:25,000
Mr. Chair, there are numbers of different ways to see it in that cap.

750
01:11:25,700 --> 01:11:29,360
You can open it up to the written comment and say,

751
01:11:29,500 --> 01:11:34,100
welcome to the one significant issue with that

752
01:11:34,100 --> 01:11:36,220
in connection with the public hearing component.

753
01:11:36,420 --> 01:11:42,080
Is that that written comment submitted by the

754
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:49,020
under that law. So I'm talking about what we're talking about now is the fees and open

755
01:11:49,020 --> 01:11:56,460
up during the public hearing like comments for the fees that they're right now.

756
01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:03,660
They say that component for that if we're talking about commentary outside of the public hearing perspective

757
01:12:03,660 --> 01:12:09,140
then absolutely you can accept written comment and you can decide whether or not you went to read

758
01:12:09,140 --> 01:12:16,680
the end of the record for the meeting minutes or just let the weather is the cloak or lay

759
01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:21,900
rain. Let's receive them that we received 17 emails from different individuals. They've

760
01:12:21,900 --> 01:12:28,020
been distributed to the commission for review and consideration and that can also be

761
01:12:28,020 --> 01:12:31,580
categorized. It really depends on how you would like to do that one.

762
01:12:31,580 --> 01:12:54,840
To me, what makes sense is those written comments get compiled and are especially, and I'm sorry, for putting it on your plate, Commissioner Stevens, but they get viewed by, we all have the opportunity to read them, but especially those who have had a hand in drafting the ordinance.

763
01:12:54,840 --> 01:13:05,720
and then you can decide how you would discuss that during the actual hearing, those comments.

764
01:13:06,860 --> 01:13:19,680
Yeah, I don't, in the hearings I've been involved with a lot of hearings on over the years, on different things at the state level.

765
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:29,700
They don't read all those comments, but they generally do, especially the regular or the,

766
01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:38,480
in our case, the government entity comments on them during the hearing and how they were considered, etc.

767
01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:44,560
I really wanted to do it, and I'm just going that out as to, because I wasn't sure it

768
01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:53,340
will be how that works if we're asked you for public input and it stays in the drawer yeah

769
01:13:53,340 --> 01:13:58,180
I know what I mean no people want to be heard and they hope they're calm and be considered.

770
01:14:00,020 --> 01:14:07,520
Mr. human cruisers we can also have a public input on the next meeting in August for additional input

771
01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:10,700
on the ordinance if you would like to do that.

772
01:14:12,440 --> 01:14:17,000
Yeah, no, and that's a good idea, but I think we have two different things here.

773
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:22,260
Ordinance and V's, yes, they're two different things and here's popping in.

774
01:14:23,140 --> 01:14:25,680
There could be comment on both of them.

775
01:14:25,760 --> 01:14:30,360
I mean, will people take the time to read the ordinance that probably have questions like

776
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:30,760
I did?

777
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:36,740
I think a county manager can get a consensus of what direction we want to go to before we

778
01:14:36,740 --> 01:14:37,140
get there.

779
01:14:37,140 --> 01:14:39,240
If that's okay with you guys, just let her in all.

780
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:40,940
And we can go from there.

781
01:14:41,740 --> 01:14:42,700
Commissioner Stephens.

782
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:44,260
Thank you.

783
01:14:44,580 --> 01:14:46,500
Chairman, I just feel the need to summarize

784
01:14:46,500 --> 01:14:48,040
what I think is happening.

785
01:14:48,820 --> 01:14:52,980
So today, we're doing notice of intent

786
01:14:53,380 --> 01:14:57,020
for the ordinance, which will allow us to set the rates

787
01:14:57,020 --> 01:14:58,000
by resolution.

788
01:14:58,440 --> 01:14:59,980
We're not doing anything with rates to-

789
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:29,980
Okay, this is just the required notice. September 10th is when we're going to vote on the ordinance. And we welcome input anytime. I don't welcome input anytime regarding anything how to do it, the solid waste authority. I spoke with Ms. McDonald, Mary Ray about accepting input virtually so people could do it at their convenience. I like that idea. I think that

790
01:15:29,980 --> 01:15:44,300
way of people know they can come on the 10th, we could also schedule another public hearing after the 10th, and we could also accept it, you know, virtually through some portal or some mechanism that I think we have ideas for.

791
01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:55,720
And then on the 27th, our next August meeting is when we'll be looking at the agreement with the authority between the county and the authority.

792
01:15:55,720 --> 01:16:02,960
the municipalities and the town and the county all have a separate agreement with the authority.

793
01:16:04,180 --> 01:16:11,480
And then the fees will probably be the most controversial thing.

794
01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:20,780
And after the ordinance is passed, the soonest we would probably have a resolution to increase the fees

795
01:16:20,780 --> 01:16:26,000
would be out of September 24th meeting.

796
01:16:26,660 --> 01:16:28,380
That would be the same as we would actually have

797
01:16:28,380 --> 01:16:31,040
a resolution that would say what those fees are gonna be.

798
01:16:31,860 --> 01:16:39,460
And so I think as long as we have input between now

799
01:16:40,140 --> 01:16:45,620
and that day, then I feel like we're honoring

800
01:16:45,620 --> 01:16:48,720
our public trust for transparency.

801
01:16:49,900 --> 01:16:51,040
That's my understanding.

802
01:16:53,750 --> 01:16:55,770
I think we got it all now.

803
01:16:58,590 --> 01:17:07,870
So, yeah, I just wanted to make sure that we ordered to Mr. Shelley's wishes as far as the public input on some of that,

804
01:17:08,030 --> 01:17:09,530
because it does affect them.

805
01:17:11,130 --> 01:17:14,050
And sure, we'd like to hear a lot from the public.

806
01:17:14,430 --> 01:17:17,930
And, you know, all we have to bring your sack lunch out there.

807
01:17:21,330 --> 01:17:26,450
So, just to give you an idea, I know that the municipalities have also invited the commissioners

808
01:17:26,450 --> 01:17:31,590
to the meetings as well as the reminders to the meetings, so there's going to be up to

809
01:17:31,590 --> 01:17:36,390
what sort of opinions there as well, and I may not get to the commissioners' use on that

810
01:17:36,390 --> 01:17:41,890
day, but we'll be open up time for everybody, I mean, the city here, South Carolina,

811
01:17:45,110 --> 01:17:45,110
and

812
01:17:45,110 --> 01:17:46,610
And I know it's all around the feast.

813
01:17:47,310 --> 01:17:49,150
So, you know, I added it by Khrusher's team

814
01:17:49,150 --> 01:17:50,330
because she says she's gonna be there.

815
01:17:50,750 --> 01:17:52,610
So I'm not there to be attending these meetings

816
01:17:52,610 --> 01:17:53,910
along that snow-op tree,

817
01:17:54,030 --> 01:17:57,890
because mostly these meetings are out for 35, 36 in the evening.

818
01:17:58,070 --> 01:17:59,890
So there's not training for them to go waste of the day.

819
01:18:02,110 --> 01:18:04,290
Yeah, and that's the other thing,

820
01:18:04,330 --> 01:18:06,370
maybe through consensus or one of few feet,

821
01:18:06,370 --> 01:18:08,450
like some time changes on our meeting notes,

822
01:18:09,030 --> 01:18:10,870
that our county manager now too

823
01:18:10,870 --> 01:18:14,570
and can go from there and decide what we need to do.

824
01:18:15,110 --> 01:18:16,470
Thank you

825
01:18:17,270 --> 01:18:17,970
Thing else

826
01:18:19,810 --> 01:18:24,310
Anyway, we have this we've made motions and had discussion on

827
01:18:24,830 --> 01:18:28,550
Direct and publication of the notice no further discussion

828
01:18:29,790 --> 01:18:34,530
Okay, see more further discussion all those in favor

829
01:18:37,150 --> 01:18:43,910
Moving on to resolution R dash 26 dash 41. Great. Come to your port

830
01:18:43,910 --> 01:18:47,830
motion approved. Second motion by

831
01:18:47,830 --> 01:18:49,310
Commissioner Nina. Second by

832
01:18:49,310 --> 01:18:50,890
Commissioner Shelley. Do we have any

833
01:18:50,890 --> 01:18:51,490
discussion?

834
01:18:53,510 --> 01:18:55,010
See none. All those in favor?

835
01:18:55,290 --> 01:18:55,470
Aye.

836
01:18:56,070 --> 01:18:58,870
Motion carries. Moving on to resolution

837
01:18:58,870 --> 01:19:01,310
R-26-42.

838
01:19:03,710 --> 01:19:04,470
Second.

839
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:11,760
So I have a motion by Commissioner

840
01:19:11,760 --> 01:19:13,940
Marina. Second by Commissioner Shelley.

841
01:19:14,620 --> 01:19:15,620
Do we have any discussion?

842
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:47,400
The next two items are pretty similar, the Resolution-R-26-43, that's under Reheb allotation and Safety Improvements, also, is our Resolution-R-26-44, it's going to be the Patent Bridge, Safety Improvement and Safety Improvements.

843
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:50,040
Can I have a motion for both?

844
01:19:50,700 --> 01:19:51,240
Senator.

845
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:54,680
So we have motion by Commissioner Stevens.

846
01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:57,840
We have a second by Commissioner Medina.

847
01:19:58,520 --> 01:19:59,640
Do we have any discussion?

848
01:20:04,060 --> 01:20:05,460
Sena and all those in favor?

849
01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:06,100
Aye.

850
01:20:06,420 --> 01:20:06,620
Aye.

851
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:07,380
I motion carries.

852
01:20:08,980 --> 01:20:09,180
Okay.

853
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:10,700
Commissioner reports.

854
01:20:10,980 --> 01:20:11,500
Commissioner Flores.

855
01:20:12,900 --> 01:20:13,980
Thank you, Mr. Chair.

856
01:20:14,900 --> 01:20:18,980
The only support to have is, I'm going to make

857
01:20:18,980 --> 01:20:24,660
wrote them some folks in, you know, tomorrow, we'll pick up that quote, so excited to be

858
01:20:24,660 --> 01:20:30,340
playing them already. And again, I'll listen to more information and feedback from them,

859
01:20:30,440 --> 01:20:35,660
but they're really, really happy with the recruits. I didn't bring you to wherever staff

860
01:20:35,660 --> 01:20:40,700
I've done it. And then, with regards to the recruit, like I mentioned, the chef, I already

861
01:20:40,700 --> 01:20:46,880
and we talked about those folks as well, but it's in a certain time and a certain

862
01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:53,420
boat, please reach out to me or any of us and let us know what happens because I

863
01:20:53,420 --> 01:20:57,900
think the middle of the mission we can get and with the sheriff, we'll help him

864
01:20:57,900 --> 01:21:04,500
put a weapon out there at key times, let's all hands to check. Thank you.

865
01:21:10,180 --> 01:21:10,680
Thank you

866
01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:11,500
Okay, that's what I'm going to do.

867
01:21:12,180 --> 01:21:14,440
So, resin from the members are coming up a time

868
01:21:14,440 --> 01:21:16,260
you're going to retire in the booth.

869
01:21:17,500 --> 01:21:19,540
I've got a meeting on September 30th

870
01:21:19,540 --> 01:21:21,440
after I need you to go with me if possible.

871
01:21:22,060 --> 01:21:23,140
So you can discuss your plans

872
01:21:23,140 --> 01:21:25,900
and I'm just concerned about the resin that you've been got.

873
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:27,760
I told my greenie that to you

874
01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:29,240
and that's all I'm pretty sure you got something

875
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:30,040
you're doing with it.

876
01:21:30,220 --> 01:21:32,420
So, we just want to kind of hear from you, we can't.

877
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:33,880
So I got, thank you.

878
01:21:34,460 --> 01:21:35,080
Thank you.

879
01:21:35,780 --> 01:21:36,480
Commissioner Shelley.

880
01:21:37,740 --> 01:21:38,120
Thank you.

881
01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:47,820
After our last meeting, I'm probably sure I'm not the only one, but I did reach out

882
01:21:47,820 --> 01:21:58,460
to running construction and had a good conversation with them about the noise in chloride flats

883
01:21:58,460 --> 01:22:10,120
area and they committed to they committed to do

884
01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:15,080
everything they can to they'll

885
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:20,080
control all the truck drivers they're contracted but they do control them in

886
01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:29,380
the way that if somebody's not following their guideline to not use to follow

887
01:22:29,380 --> 01:22:35,680
our county ordinance in that area then they will tell contractors I don't want pat driver

888
01:22:36,140 --> 01:22:46,920
here anymore. And so they're going to do everything they can to resolve that and I appreciate

889
01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:56,040
their commitment to work on that. So and then I wanted to thank Commissioner Stephens

890
01:22:56,040 --> 01:23:04,840
for all the behind-the-scenes work that I think we all appreciate both on this ordinance.

891
01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:12,040
We just approved on this hall of waste authority, but also inviting us to that retreat meeting.

892
01:23:15,180 --> 01:23:20,540
I appreciate getting the invite so I can understand it better and will definitely help you.

893
01:23:23,160 --> 01:23:24,620
That's all I have, thanks.

894
01:23:24,620 --> 01:23:25,740
Thank you.

895
01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:26,560
Commissioner Stevens.

896
01:23:27,820 --> 01:23:28,760
Thank you, Chairman.

897
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:30,220
Just a couple comments.

898
01:23:30,480 --> 01:23:35,960
I said at our last meeting Tuesday that I would follow up on the question regarding what

899
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:39,900
happens if people are over the limit with their waste.

900
01:23:40,460 --> 01:23:44,980
And they go to the landfill and you would ask about the billing.

901
01:23:45,580 --> 01:23:51,460
And the answer is the fee will be assessed right then and there at the scale house.

902
01:23:51,460 --> 01:23:55,020
So it doesn't matter about the physical versus mailing address.

903
01:23:55,380 --> 01:23:58,380
They will just tell you, you're over, this is how much you owe.

904
01:23:59,740 --> 01:24:07,040
And then I want to thank Commissioner Flores and Shelly for your efforts with the Chorag

905
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:15,360
Flats, Oakwood, Truck, Moise issue and talking with the Run-Yen family.

906
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:23,180
I have been thinking about it too, and I think that the sheriff has agreed to help with

907
01:24:23,180 --> 01:24:23,820
enforcement.

908
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:28,420
That's great, and we don't really have control over the speed limit.

909
01:24:29,700 --> 01:24:35,780
The noise ordinance is difficult to enforce, although we can try, but one other idea or

910
01:24:35,780 --> 01:24:41,380
one other driver to the problem that was identified is that trucks are having to go through town

911
01:24:41,380 --> 01:24:48,320
because we don't have a way to link 180 east with 180 west and it already is in

912
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:55,020
the plans to connect those two sections of the highway which would divert

913
01:24:55,020 --> 01:24:58,960
traffic so they don't have to go through town. I know it's a timing issue

914
01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:04,400
because I don't know how long this steel contract is going to last but my

915
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:10,140
understanding is that with the bond funds that we approved today that can be used

916
01:25:10,140 --> 01:25:15,940
for road construction and that we could use funds to expedite that project and I think

917
01:25:15,940 --> 01:25:22,620
that would be a win-win because you would, I'm sure the truck drivers would prefer not

918
01:25:22,620 --> 01:25:27,300
to have to go through town and you know stop and start so many times and I think some

919
01:25:27,300 --> 01:25:32,520
of our residents would be happy about not having all those trucks right there in town.

920
01:25:34,860 --> 01:25:42,240
So I'm hopeful that we can do that, and then with our comprehensive plan, you know,

921
01:25:42,260 --> 01:25:45,160
of course, one of the themes that comes up is conservation.

922
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:50,840
I recently saw in Luna County, I was at a movie, and they have these signs everywhere

923
01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:51,880
about sustainability.

924
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:58,420
They've got big projects with some of their large buildings, including the Star Max Theater

925
01:25:58,420 --> 01:26:05,900
have solar panels. And so I was thinking that might be a good opportunity for some cost savings.

926
01:26:06,500 --> 01:26:14,380
I believe that the federal tax credit was 30% for everyone, but now it's only for commercial,

927
01:26:14,540 --> 01:26:21,420
not for residential. And I don't know if municipalities can take advantage of that, but if they can,

928
01:26:21,660 --> 01:26:26,860
I think that would be excellent. And then we still have the 10% tax credit too from the state.

929
01:26:27,860 --> 01:26:28,360
So,

930
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:37,480
personally, I've seen our bills go from $250 a month to $15 a month with some solar

931
01:26:37,480 --> 01:26:42,060
panels, and it's exciting to think about all the money we could save, and especially

932
01:26:42,060 --> 01:26:44,180
if we could get some, like a good grant.

933
01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:47,180
There, that was just something I wanted to fill out.

934
01:26:48,020 --> 01:26:55,200
And then also, thinking about the whole water and conservation, you know, every time you

935
01:26:55,200 --> 01:27:01,380
turn around and hear about data centers. And we don't have planning and zoning in the county.

936
01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:09,000
But I guess one thing I've been thinking about is if a data center were to come into

937
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:16,620
Grant County or approach a private property owner in Grant County and make a deal to build a data

938
01:27:16,620 --> 01:27:26,360
center. I'm curious about would we have any say is there anything we could do or and if the

939
01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:34,920
answers no then I think it would be who of us to begin looking at or thinking about how could we

940
01:27:36,580 --> 01:27:43,240
do something with planning and zoning to where we would at least have some say or some notice.

941
01:27:45,990 --> 01:27:48,890
And since our attorneys here, you're welcome to respond.

942
01:27:49,050 --> 01:27:50,010
That's all of my comments.

943
01:27:52,550 --> 01:27:55,630
We'll have to have more conversations about that.

944
01:27:55,810 --> 01:27:56,070
Okay,

945
01:27:58,180 --> 01:27:58,900
that's all.

946
01:27:59,340 --> 01:28:03,840
You know, I have just a couple of comments with Commissioner,

947
01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:07,020
what Commissioner Steven said, you know,

948
01:28:07,100 --> 01:28:09,800
I think that that idea is good.

949
01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:13,580
I know it could be costly and I know our attorney will direct

950
01:28:13,580 --> 01:28:20,500
this or if I'm here if I'm not in the right direction on this but that idea like a lot

951
01:28:20,500 --> 01:28:25,180
because at the end of the day data centers aren't the only things that are going to start

952
01:28:25,180 --> 01:28:34,780
hitting different areas of New Mexico and I think it's wise to plan to further plan and for future

953
01:28:34,780 --> 01:28:41,240
commissioners and you guys to have things in place to be able to to help some of this long and

954
01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:48,520
have a seesaw in this. So thank you for for bringing that up and seeing what can

955
01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:53,560
happen because the last thing you want to do is start making plans or looking at

956
01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:59,280
these when things are already happening. That's a little too late. So with that

957
01:28:59,280 --> 01:29:04,840
but thank you Commissioner Stevens. You know just to let you guys know also I

958
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:12,000
I have spoken, didn't speak to some of the runeans there and what was put into the public

959
01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:21,640
input a few meetings back, you know, and I did see the ordinance, but I know what we've

960
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:27,280
discussed with our sheriff, but my suggestion to our sheriff would be me reading that ordinance,

961
01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:32,020
my suggestion to the sheriff would be if when you have time, meet with our county attorney.

962
01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:40,320
see what your deputies can cannot do just to be prepared.

963
01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:43,020
We don't want to just start jumping into it.

964
01:29:43,940 --> 01:29:47,760
And that ordinance just didn't sit well with me.

965
01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:51,940
So if you guys don't mind, get together before we put our food

966
01:29:51,940 --> 01:29:52,980
and something we shut up.

967
01:29:54,380 --> 01:29:55,560
That's my other comment.

968
01:29:56,780 --> 01:29:59,880
The other thing is sort of ridiculous, but I think it needs

969
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:29,980
To be addressed, because I've heard it a few times, just to let the public and let you all know, I am not applying for the county manager's position. I don't know where that rumor started. I don't know where it's coming from, I know it's hit in this building a little bit. I do not qualify for the county manager's position, whether I sit here or don't sit here. And the biggest thing to all this would be, I would never be interested in being

970
01:30:29,980 --> 01:30:36,700
a county manager so if anybody sets out those rumors or if you hear somebody putting those rumors

971
01:30:36,700 --> 01:30:42,420
out there send them to me it's really easy to come talk to me and ask me are you interested in the

972
01:30:42,420 --> 01:30:47,840
cut not going to that county manager not going to other commissioners to other employees in this

973
01:30:47,840 --> 01:30:55,060
building I am not even if I can't have the qualifications the education I am not interested in

974
01:30:55,620 --> 01:31:00,660
being a commissioner for eight years has been fun has been you know I've

975
01:31:00,660 --> 01:31:05,240
learned a lot could I say I could walk in it maybe I could maybe I couldn't but

976
01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:09,940
there's so much then what we do up here compared to what our county manager and

977
01:31:09,940 --> 01:31:14,620
our deputy county manager do so the answer to the public and to all of you and

978
01:31:14,620 --> 01:31:20,520
all the county employees is that rumor is false and if you want to give me more

979
01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:24,360
names of who's telling you please do so I can set up with them and let them

980
01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:27,060
and now I'm not interested in number one, number two,

981
01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:27,860
I do not qualify.

982
01:31:28,440 --> 01:31:29,420
So thank you.

983
01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:31,560
Anything else, commissioners?

984
01:31:37,830 --> 01:31:41,650
Okay, moving on to next item,

985
01:31:42,710 --> 01:31:44,430
there's going to be executive session

986
01:31:44,430 --> 01:31:46,850
in accordance with NMSA 1978,

987
01:31:47,750 --> 01:31:50,490

988
01:31:50,990 --> 01:31:55,510
and two, and also sub-H and eight,

and disposal of your property or purchase acquisition or disposal of your property or water rights by public body.

991
01:32:07,410 --> 01:32:10,670
Do I have a motion to go into an executive session?

992
01:32:10,990 --> 01:32:11,230
Motion.

993
01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:13,880
Second.

994
01:32:14,940 --> 01:32:16,860
Is there a motion by Commissioner Medina?

995
01:32:17,380 --> 01:32:19,120
Second by me. Do we have any discussion?

996
01:32:22,730 --> 01:32:24,530
See no discussion. All those in favor?

997
01:32:24,910 --> 01:32:25,330
Aye.

998
01:32:25,750 --> 01:32:25,910
Aye.

999
01:32:26,170 --> 01:32:29,850
Motion carries. Madam Clerk, can you please do us a roll call?

1000
01:32:29,850 --> 01:32:33,950
Chairman and commissioners, I allow you to entry into executive session.

1001
01:32:35,030 --> 01:32:35,890

Yes.

1003
01:32:36,710 --> 01:32:37,370

1004
01:32:37,610 --> 01:32:37,770
Yes.

1005
01:32:38,170 --> 01:32:39,110

1006
01:32:39,210 --> 01:32:39,490

1007
01:32:39,690 --> 01:32:40,430

We'll be going into executive session.

1013
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:54,320
Possibly some action, so sorry to take a while.

1014
01:32:55,020 --> 01:33:00,620
And also, I think if we can have a county manager for this part for the...

1015
01:33:02,860 --> 01:33:10,540
Disposal of the real property and all that, we'll start with that, I know you're busy having to do other things, and we can go from that.
