1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:21,520
All right, we're going to call the meeting to order at 902, January 21, 2020. We're going to have

2
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,600
Supervisor Kanan, lead us into pledge.

3
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,120
And now we have a brief moment of silence.

4
00:00:51,520 --> 00:01:02,320
All right, could would you please make sure all cell phones are on vibrate or silent, please?

5
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,880
We did make that announcement last time and it happened, so you don't get an excuse this time.

6
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:20,960
Do we have any roll calls, first, district one, district two, three, four, and five, all present.

7
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:24,880
We have any amendments to the agenda.

8
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:58,080
Thank you. Any other amendments? Yes, sir. On my report seven, aye. I believe in the number 12. It's approved for attendance at the National Hurricane Center.

9
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,560
Excuse me, the National Hurricane Conference.

10
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:08,320
And that paper six to eight on nine in Orlando.

11
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,320
There'll be under aye.

12
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,760
12, aye. 12, yes, sir. Aye, Mr. Bill.

13
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:50,080
There'll be eight, eight, one in B1, or the two, actually, and B1 and B1 and B1.

14
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,600
I also seem to. Any any other amendments?

15
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,320
I think we want to have a partial table on five, a five.

16
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:15,920
We will maintain the ARFF chief salary and benefits, I believe, on this agenda, the other of the table, until the first meeting in March.

17
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,200
All right, we have any any further amendments?

18
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,800
I need a motion to accept the agenda.

19
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker motion by district one, second by district five, any further discussion?

20
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:38,160
VNN, district one, two, three, four, and five, motion carries five, zero.

21
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,160
I'm sorry, it was district two and five.

22
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:44,880
You sound like Theresa.

23
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,200
Anyway, I had announcements.

24
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:55,120
That track was scheduled board. Board of Supervisors meeting will be held at nine a.m. on Monday, February 3rd.

arutiles on November 27th and December 4th, 2019.

And micro servicing and seals.

33
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,200
All right, first up on the agenda external businesses must be a court with a port and harbor.

34
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:01,760
Good morning, everyone. First the morning. First item is a approval of our January 15th,

35
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:15,920
talking about district five, any further discussion? Be a nine district one, two, three, four, and five,

36
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,720
motion carries five, zero. Thank you very much. Next one is a short term use agreement spread on the

37
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:26,560
minutes with good night terminal services for use of the lanyl dock rail access for any amount of $2,000 per month.

38
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:36,720
This is my district two. Second, my district five, any further discussion? Be a nine,

39
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:42,960
district one, two, three, four, and five, motion carries five, zero. Thank you. The next is a

40
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,480
a tight on agreement with culverts. A VH for the use of a single tight on location.

41
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,880
That's an international airport for $50 per month. Payton and six month advance of $300.

42
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,960
These are standard rates and charges and culabries is one of the flank structures out the airport.

43
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:03,920
Motion by district one. Second, second by district. Any further discussion? Be a nine,

44
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:09,520
district one, two, three, four, and five. Motion carries five, zero. Thank you item number four is a,

45
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:15,760
another use of, it's actually an interim use agreement with a company called Jet A transport.

46
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,160
It's actually a fuel truck. This is one of the fuel drivers that brings in the aviation fuel into

47
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,480
the airport. They just want to place the park to truck. They'll go get the fuel, bring it there. But it's

48
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:30,800
kind of an on-sart site job or contract. So, a little land lease there to house the truck.

49
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:39,840
Motion by district five. Second by district three. Any further discussion? Be a nine,

50
00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:46,160
district one, two, three, four, and five. Motion carries five, zero. Thank you. Before we do item number five,

51
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,720
I wanted to take a point of personal privilege to introduce my wife, Nina's here today.

52
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:57,520
And she saw the agenda and saw my compensation was on it. So, she decided to come down here and protect her financial

53
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:04,000
interests. I also like to introduce Madeline Walker, Madeline Walker's a new Ronnie Wade Robertson in our office.

54
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:10,560
She's a great lawyer from Gulfport. She started a week ago and coming to check us out and see how we run our

55
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:20,400
business and she's a new valuable member of our team. Item number five is a budget amendment to address

56
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:27,360
a new archief. We hired a, the normally the way we do our fire department is that everybody's a 1099 employee kind

57
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:34,880
of a contract. And with the increase in the DOD aviation work that we're doing out there, the MRL activities,

58
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:40,560
the Nav air form military sales contracts, the firefighting requirements, training, inspection,

59
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:47,600
regime has really, really gone up. The tenants pay for these services. Okay, but we've been doing this so far

60
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:54,720
with, with, with part time, part time type employees. So we went out and put on a job description for a new

61
00:07:54,720 --> 00:08:01,280
fire chief went out into the universe to try to hire another contract employee. What we found was was a gentleman who

62
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:07,840
is a deputy fire chief for Harrison County who's got massive experience in DOD fire protection.

63
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:14,240
It has a background in the DOD and really is a, really the problem one of the more competent firefighters on

64
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,360
the coast. Coming in with some great ideas and has really hit the ground running. But some of the things

65
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:25,680
that he wanted to come on board here was to get his purse credit and some of the benefits as well as a part time

66
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,960
contract. And so that's not something we had contemplated in our budget, but really want to take advantage

67
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:36,640
of this opportunity to, you know, kind of get the guy what he needs in order to keep him around and keep him happy. So

68
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:41,920
our commission go to unanimously to offer this and to bring it up to you as both a budget amendment

69
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:47,920
under personal services and then also to authorize that position. So that's the point. The other part is my

70
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:53,200
compensation as you know, right, and ongoing negotiations. So ask that you table that until further notice.

71
00:08:55,680 --> 00:09:03,760
We'll be the approval of 53,000, six, seven hundred and thirty four dollars.

72
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:08,080
Need a motion a second?

73
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,360
The insurance benefits per is at all included within that. This is a part of variable part time contract.

74
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,360
We're just getting him his purse credit, but it will not be other but otherwise benefits eligible.

75
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:25,120
We looked into this and figured out we can do it. So the number, I think the Gary referred to includes

76
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,720
the fringes on the other compensate.

77
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:38,080
Said that that's the ARF athlete boy, right? No, no, the 87 includes both pages and salary for both.

78
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:45,840
And I think the Delta's 53, six, very fort. But that includes the fringes on the

79
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:52,880
and the other compensation as well. No, no, there's a two and I mean it includes both of them.

80
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,800
But whatever that number is, if you could send it to his bill, I will be happy to do that.

81
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:02,080
Yeah, just we'll amend the record. We'll sign up and revise resolution with all these

82
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:07,360
Johnson titles on it and get, get you the breakout. Yeah, I've got a question about district two.

83
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,960
So I could. Second, by district one, any further discussion?

84
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:20,480
Be a none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero. Thank you all very much. Have a great week.

85
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:29,680
All right, next up, we have a presentation by your honor, bro.

86
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:35,120
I'm sorry, Trent, how would we just want to say we want to go ahead and do the appointments for the.

87
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,120
I think I apologize, Trent.

88
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:58,560
Yeah, so, so we have a one, this would be a motion, I guess, I sympathize with district one.

89
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,840
What would be the name you would want for that motion? Robert Martin.

90
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:16,960
I've got a motion by district one. Second, by district two, to approve Robert Martin as district one appointment on a important

91
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:25,120
hall of commission, a fact of January 21st, 2020. I'm sorry, district five. Sorry.

92
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:36,240
Okay, let thing a little closer to you. Any further discussion? Be a none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

93
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:49,680
All right. Next up, we have a motion by district two to approve the reappointment of Paul Jordan.

94
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:57,520
As district two's commission, appointment on a important hall of commission. Second, by district one.

95
00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:04,880
Any further discussion? Be a none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

96
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:09,840
All right, the one's the district three.

00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:22,800
And supervots of district three, what would be your name for the insert in that appointment? Derrick me case. Derrick me case.

98
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,680
All right, we got motion by district three.

99
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:34,640
Sorry, I can second by district five to appoint Derrick me case as a representative for district three on a important hall of commission.

100
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,320
Any further discussion?

101
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:42,560
Be a none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

102
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Motion by district four to reappoint Derrick or Nail as my appointment on district four on the

103
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:58,880

105
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:14,560
All right, and we got a motion by district five to appoint Michael Bennett to the

106
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:23,840

107
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:31,360
Be a none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

108
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:39,200
That takes care of all the report report over the points and what is your next.

109
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,520
Good afternoon. Three, three, three, three, three.

110
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:20,400
All right, now we have a presentation by Judge Trent Farf. Good morning.

111
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:28,640
Thanks for having us again this year. I think the presentation will be a little shorter than last year.

112
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:48,640
I think it's important for me and my role is youth court judge to provide you all with

113
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:56,160
information yearly. I'm not aware of another county judge that undertakes this annually but given

114
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:04,000
where our youth court came from and where we are today.

115
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:16,000
I think it's a good idea to keep you informed. Plus, you also annually authorize our budget because of that. I feel like there's some accountability that I need to have to you also that you know that you're spending the taxpayer money properly.

116
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:26,000
I threw this slide in to just make sure that everybody understands that I have multiple roles.

117
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:32,000
I'm here today to report on the state of the youth court that I wanted to remind you all, and I think you all are aware.

118
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:38,000
I'm also the county court judge, which presides over all the civil cases.

119
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,000
It filed a haircut county, and the criminal appeals from the lower courts.

120
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:51,000
So that's one of my responsibilities, and typically I'm in term the second Monday of every month in the big court house.

121
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:58,000
I'm taking care of those matters, and then the other weeks of the month, I'm in the youth court.

122
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,000
So under the youth court, there are actually two divisions.

123
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:10,000
So most of you all are familiar with and most interested in the abuse and neglect side of things.

124
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:19,000
But there's also the delinquency side. So when a child commits a crime, that will come to youth court.

125
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Okay.

126
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Like last year, I wanted to just share some statistics to show you where we've come from.

127
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:33,000
In January of 2018, when I took the bench, we had 389 children in custody.

128
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:39,000
In January of last year, I stood before you and pointed out that we had 165.

129
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,000
And this year, we had 108 children in custody.

130
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:53,000
So that's a 72% reduction in the number of children in custody of our two year period.

131
00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:03,000
There is a website, if you want to jot it down, it's called fosteringcourtimprovement.gov, fosteringcourtimprovement.gov.

132
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:10,000
And this is a website maintained by the Children's Bureau, which is the agency in charge of child welfare for the whole country.

133
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:20,000
And they retrieve data from our system through CPS and study our numbers.

134
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:31,000
If you go to that website and look at the information, you will probably realize that we still have a lot of progress to be made.

135
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:36,000
Okay. We've come a long way, but there's still a lot of work to be done.

136
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,000
In two years, we have been able to reduce the number of kids in custody.

137
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:51,000
And when you look at that number, that 72% reduction, that's just looking at January 1st of 2018, the number in the number today, that's a 72% reduction.

138
00:17:51,000 --> 00:18:01,000
But what you need to keep in mind is as we worked through the backlog, we were still taking children in at the same time in processing those cases.

139
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:15,000
So we were working old cases and working new cases and the approach that I took was to work aggressively move cases forward so that we could get to where we are today.

140
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:22,000
I wanted to just walk you through the numbers of the 108 children we do have in custody.

141
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:36,000
34 of those children are on a reunification cycle. So what that means is that we are working with their parents to try to reunify the family.

142
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:44,000
There are strict timelines in our statutes. So if a child is under the age of three, we have six months to work with that family.

143
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:53,000
There's an extraordinary and compelling circumstance that CPS shows us for children over the age of three, it's one year.

144
00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:00,000
It's important to adhere to these timelines because children need permanency.

145
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:12,000
So we need to make sure that we're moving forward so that children can either be re-unified with their parents or a family member or move on to the adoption process.

146
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:23,000
But a lot of the numbers in a voucher show you are a lot of the older cases and the pending TPR TPR's termination of parental rights.

147
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:33,000
So if they don't do, if the parents do not do what they are supposed to do within the time period, then we move to termination of parental rights.

148
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:40,000
So 28 children are that 108 are on a TPR track.

149
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:47,000
40 of those have been TPR. They're parental rights have been terminated and they're waiting for an adoption.

150
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Okay.

151
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,000
Six are in Apla, which is another permanent plan living arrangement.

152
00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:02,000
These are children that typically have not been adopted, but we're preparing them for the next step adulthood.

153
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:16,000
So when you look at these numbers, I think it's important to look at that top number and see that we've got 34 and I call them in the hopper that we're working with.

154
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,000
We meet with them monthly.

155
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:25,000
I meet with the parents monthly and try to move those cases towards reunification.

156
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:32,000
The reason that number is important is it's a low number are that 108 and it's been consistent.

157
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,000
We are taking fewer children into custody and we'll go through that in a second.

158
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:50,000
When you look at fosteringimprovement.gov, if you go there, what you'll see is that our numbers are still off for accounting our size.

159
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:59,000
Okay. Now, what I don't know is our drug problem worse than Warren County.

160
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,000
Warren County is of similar size.

161
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Geographically, kind of similar.

162
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,000
Has a population center of Vicksburg, similar to the Bay of St. Louis and Wavelin.

163
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:17,000
Has a rural area, has an interstate that goes through it, 20, and is a border county to Louisiana.

164
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:23,000
So you have a lot of transient folks. So it's a similar size county.

165
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Their numbers are much clearer in the 80 range.

166
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:33,000
Look, when you're talking about numbers, I get it. Every county is different.

167
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,000
But these are national numbers, these are state numbers that we look at.

168
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:44,000
And we just still have too many children in custody based on the numbers.

169
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000
We should probably be in the 60 to 80 range.

170
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,000
And I think we will be there. We've been consistent over a two year period.

171
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:59,000
And I think we will get there. It's just going to take a little bit of time on the pending TPR number.

172
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:07,000
So what happens when a kid is referred to TPR, the state prepares a pocket and that goes to the other division of county court,

173
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:13,000
where we have a hearing, and I have aggressively set these cases to move them forward.

174
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:20,000
And so most of these cases will be heard in this month, and then some in February and some in March.

175
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:25,000
There are still out of that 28, probably six kids.

176
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:31,000
That have cases still pending in chance record.

177
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:35,000
I have taken some back because they were so old.

178
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,000
But if they were pending in chance rate before, they stayed in chance record.

179
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:47,000
And so you've got six kids that have had their cases pending for years, and they're for different reasons.

180
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,000
They're just not resolved.

181
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:56,000
But hopefully that number, the 28 trinks in the next two or three months, and then we'll flow into the next number.

182
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:06,000
Of that 40 there, about 18 kids will be adopted in the next 30 to 90 days.

183
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Okay?

184
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:16,000
And the, just to put a new members previously, it was a youth court, not in a county court.

185
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:22,000
So it was a referee system, which is why they got transferred for TPR to chance reinstall to begin.

186
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,000
Under Judge Farve now is all under one court.

187
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Right.

188
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:36,000
So according to the latest data published by CPS, we're still a number 11 in the state for a number of children in custody.

189
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,000
So that's not scaled down by size.

190
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,000
That's total number of kids.

191
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:55,000
So we're behind Harrison, you know, Hines, Latterdale for the bigger counties that are two, three, four times bigger than us.

192
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,000
We were, we were a number one and number two for a long time.

193
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Or I guess number two in this, in this stat, behind Harrison County and then Marion County was another problem county.

194
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:18,000
But we've dropped to number 11, which is really good.

195
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,000
Here's some of the key indicators that I wanted to point out to you.

196
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:28,000
If you look at three or history, a shelter hearing is the first hearing we have after custody is taken.

197
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,000
It's required by a lot of be held within 48 hours.

198
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:38,000
In 2017, there were 242 kids who had a shelter hearing.

199
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:44,000
So that means they were removed from their parents and had a hearing.

200
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:51,000
In 2018, I took the bench in January of 2018, it went to 59.

201
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:56,000
So we took fewer kids into custody, 61 in 2019.

202
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:00,000
So you can see some consistency. They are not a big variation.

203
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,000
And the number of adjudications and adjudication is a trial.

204
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,000
So the parents were found to have abused or neglected their child.

205
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:18,000
At 437 and in 2017, 2018, it was 97 and in 2018, 89.

206
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,000
Some recent trends.

207
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Since July 1st of last year, we've taken in 22 children through shelter hearings.

208
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:41,000
So if you think that through, we're much more consistent now with the number of children we take in the custody.

209
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,000
And I'm going to explain a little bit why we're taking fewer kids into custody.

210
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:52,000
In case you've got some reservations.

211
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:58,000
If you look also reduction in number of cases referred for termination parental rights.

212
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:05,000
In 2019, only 19 children were referred to TPR.

213
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:13,000
So if you think back to the graph, I just showed you hopefully the number of TPRs will decrease.

214
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:19,000
Okay. And we want our reunification number to increase, right? That sounds humane.

215
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:24,000
But I will tell you after talking about this with Judges throughout the state.

216
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:30,000
If you're taking fewer kids into custody, that means you're taking the tougher cases.

217
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,000
Okay? Which means it's going to be harder to reunify.

218
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:41,000
So we don't want to bank on or get geared to thinking that our reunification rate has to, I want it.

219
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:50,000
I want it to be high. But it is harder to have a higher reunification rate with the cases that we're taking in.

220
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:56,000
There's just harder. But we're going to do everything we can because I think everybody is redeemable.

221
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Every parent deserves a chance. Every child deserves their parent.

222
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:09,000
So we'll do everything we can. And you'll hear later about some of the resources that we have that make us unique in Mississippi to accomplish reunification.

223
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:17,000
So why the continued decrease? This is the most important thing. It's safe at home initiative.

224
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:26,000
So this is a national and state trend to provide in-home services instead of removal due to the trauma of the child.

225
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,000
Everyone, the buzzword is trauma in the child welfare industry.

226
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:37,000
And we know that when you remove a child from their parents, it's one of the most traumatic events that they can experience.

227
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:45,000
The second most traumatic event, a second to actually losing a parent.

228
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:54,000
So the goal is to keep kids and children with their parents while we work with them.

229
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:02,000
So if the report comes in to CPS, it's investigating the same way that it's always been.

230
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:09,000
But a decision has to be made. And CPS has to determine whether or not there's a safety risk.

231
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:15,000
And we've done a lot of training on this to make sure we're all on the same page.

232
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:24,000
But they assess for safety. If the child can be safely maintained in the home and provided services, then we can prevent custody.

233
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:37,000
This isn't really new. If you go back and look at Mississippi Law and federal law, the law has always said that the agency, CPS, has to make reasonable efforts to prevent custody.

234
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:49,000
That has always been the federal standard. So we have to make our best effort to try to prevent taking that child into custody.

235
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,000
The 75 children currently have in home cases.

236
00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:04,000
All right, so it's possible to say that there's 75 children may have come in custody under the prior court.

237
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:15,000
But 75 children, which is 33 sibling groups, there may have been substantiated abuse from neglect, most likely neglect of some sort.

238
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:25,000
But we have put services in place to take that safety risk out of the home.

239
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,000
Another reason for the decline is we've had more adoptions.

240
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:39,000
In 2019 the state really pushed a lot of adoptions through in 67 adoptions happened in Hancock County.

241
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:44,000
So those are mostly the older cases.

242
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:53,000
I think another reason for the decrease is the adherence to statutory timelines that move the cases through the system.

243
00:29:53,000 --> 00:30:00,000
We have months to month hearings, as I pointed out earlier, this provides accountability.

244
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:07,000
Accountability both ways. Parents have a voice in the courtroom, and they're eager to be in the courtroom.

245
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:13,000
On a month to month basis, instead of wondering what's going on for three, six months at a time,

246
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,000
the law only requires us to meet with those parents every six months.

247
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:27,000
But we do at months to month, and I think it really does give them hope to see that there are cases moving forward.

248
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,000
If things are not progressing, the sooner we know about it, the better, right?

249
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:36,000
So if the parent is not meeting some goal, we can hear about it in the courtroom and figure out why.

250
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,000
Provide more resources.

251
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:44,000
Another reason I think we have a decrease is family representation.

252
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,000
We have our family attorney here, Mr. Usel.

253
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,000
You pay half of that salary, the other half is paid through a grant.

254
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:59,000
There's a big push statewide to make sure that every court has a family representative attorney.

255
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,000
That this really does make a big difference.

256
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:07,000
We are testing something in Hancock County.

257
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:12,000
We have a few cases where we're appointing the attorney to an in-home case.

258
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:21,000
So typically, when a child is taken into custody, the attorney is appointed and the attorney will appear at the shelter hearing at that first hearing.

259
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:30,000
But we're going to try to appoint the attorney on some of the in-home cases just so that the parents have legal guidance through that process.

260
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:34,000
So we're looking at five different cases just to see how that works.

261
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,000
That's also a national trend.

262
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,000
But we're on the forefront of that.

263
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000
Lastly, resources.

264
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,000
We have more people and resources for fewer families.

265
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:56,000
This is something to be proud about in Hancock County because if you go to other counties, they do not have the resources that we have.

266
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:10,000
When I go around the state and talk about what we have here, I almost feel bad because other other judges don't have access to some of the things we have.

267
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,000
You all know about CASA.

268
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,000
There are only six CASA chapters in the state.

269
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,000
So we have one of them here and it's one of the best in the country.

270
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,000
We have a child advocacy center, who are pavement.

271
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,000
There are only 13 in the state.

272
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,000
So we have one here.

273
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,000
We have a resource center, Hancock Resource Center.

274
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,000
Not every county has a resource center.

275
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,000
We have a visitation or a family center first in the state.

276
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:43,000
So we have a lot of resources that other counties don't have.

277
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:49,000
And we are steadily becoming a model for other counties in the state.

278
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,000
So I think that is a big thing.

279
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:56,000
If you can think back some of the older supervisors.

280
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:02,000
Years ago, the ratio of case worker to kids was out of whack.

281
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,000
There just weren't enough case workers to handle all the families, the volume.

282
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,000
And now we have, you know, those ratios in check.

283
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,000
And so really what every parent gets is a better shot.

284
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:21,000
Because they have more resources and people resources to help them through the process.

285
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:26,000
And I'd like to say if a parent doesn't make it here,

286
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,000
it's not from our lack of trying.

287
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Okay.

288
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000
They've gotten our best.

289
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:38,000
I want to just point this out because these are some interesting numbers.

290
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,000
As anyone can tell you that's here.

291
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,000
I like numbers.

292
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,000
I like compliance.

293
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:47,000
I think it's important that we focus on compliance.

294
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,000
The statutes were written to produce a good output to produce a good product.

295
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:58,000
So if you follow the law, it is likely that you're going to be doing things correctly.

296
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:06,000
So in fiscal year 1617, our court system had a 57% compliance rate.

297
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:12,000
Now the compliance rate is calculated over nine different factors that are monitored by the state.

298
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,000
And I can pull those that information from our computer system.

299
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:21,000
In 17 and 18, so this would have been half of my year.

300
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Our compliance rate went up to 72%.

301
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:31,000
Now the one of the issues I found is, as I corrected issues,

302
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:38,000
if I corrected it in my year, it was a non-compliance in my year.

303
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:45,000
So that whatever happened that went wrong in 17, if I corrected it in 18,

304
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,000
it shows up on my report as a non-compliance.

305
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:54,000
For the 18, 19 year, we went up to 86%.

306
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000
That was number eight in the state.

307
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:01,000
So we went from the bottom 82 to number eight.

308
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,000
That number still gets under my skin.

309
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,000
If you know me, 86% is not something to be proud of yet.

310
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,000
But look where we are right now.

311
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Through the six months of this year, we're at a 97.5 compliance rate.

312
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,000
And we're really proud of that.

313
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,000
It's a good number.

314
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,000
I talked to one of the directors in Jackson yesterday,

315
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:36,000
and that number puts us up with Ranking County in Madison County.

316
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,000
We're going to be number one.

317
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Here are some of our highlights.

318
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:47,000
Last year, I was asked to participate in the state's performance improvement plan.

319
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000
So the state assembles a team.

320
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,000
The state has to do an improvement plan every couple of years.

321
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,000
And I was 104 judges asked to serve on the improvement plan,

322
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:00,000
which really gave me an opportunity to learn about some of the things that

323
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,000
we need to correct and fix in our state system.

324
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:08,000
Again, I had to start implementing some of those things in our own court.

325
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:13,000
In the beginning of last year, I was recognized as Mississippi's champion for children,

326
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,000
for the entire judiciary in the state of Mississippi.

327
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,000
We unveiled the halls of Hope Art Project last year,

328
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:25,000
and we brought three panels for you all to see.

329
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,000
This has really changed the court room aesthetic.

330
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:34,000
And so when you walk into a court room now, you see Hope, and you see artwork,

331
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:40,000
and that points people to a positive direction.

332
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:45,000
We converted Brenda's house from an emergency shelter to a family center,

333
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,000
and that's the first of its kind in the state of Mississippi.

334
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,000
I think that's going to see reap the benefits of that.

335
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,000
And that's your commitment that you made.

336
00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:00,000
And I appreciate that very much in the families that are served by it.

337
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:07,000
In the middle of the year, last year I was recognized as a re-enification here by the child welfare

338
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:11,000
and child advocacy committee of the Mississippi Bar.

339
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:18,000
We also held Hancock County's first re-enification day of that.

340
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:24,000
Lawrence attendance by the public, not a large attendance by families that have been re-enified,

341
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000
but we think that's because it was the first of its kind,

342
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,000
and to put yourself back out there after you've been through the youth court processes a big step.

343
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,000
But for the families that came, it was very meaningful.

344
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:41,000
And I think this year we'll have a pretty good turnout.

345
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000
We created a court book room.

346
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,000
I'm sorry, a courtroom book program for children who attend hearing,

347
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:53,000
so we're able to provide a book to children in the courtroom when they come for their hearings.

348
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:59,000
And just to point out prior to 2018, children were not coming to their hearings.

349
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:05,000
And we think it's very important for children to have a voice and say in their case.

350
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:09,000
So when they come to court, they can leave with a book.

351
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,000
We recently added a third D.Y.S. counselor.

352
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,000
So this is on the link-wincy side.

353
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:19,000
We wanted to add a counselor last year, and I talked to Mr. Farve about that.

354
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,000
And what do you know? We found it.

355
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,000
And you didn't have to pay for it.

356
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,000
This is a state-funded position.

357
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,000
So that was good news.

358
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,000
We also entered into an MOU with Harrison County,

359
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,000
Do you have an old attention center?

360
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,000
If you're interested, you can go back and look and see what we've paid in the past for a detention.

361
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:44,000
Having to commute, drive children to Adam's County.

362
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:46,000
It's it.

363
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,000
They do.

364
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:52,000
There keeps them off the road, keeps the children off the road for a long cruise time.

365
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,000
And also it reduces travel mileage.

366
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,000
But the rate is expensive.

367
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:04,000
It's $175 to send a child for a day at the detention center.

368
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Adam's County was $120, but they caught on, so they raised their rate to recently.

369
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:18,000
And just so you'll know, because we get some slack about this.

370
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:24,000
It is not popular to send a kid to detention.

371
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000
It's not restorative.

372
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:35,000
There are three measures that we use when I get a call in the middle of the night that a kid has committed a crime or allegedly committed a crime.

373
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,000
They need to be a threat to themselves, so they're threatening to harm themselves,

374
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,000
which typically means they're probably not going to go to detention.

375
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:46,000
They'll probably go to some type of treatment immediately.

376
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,000
A threat to others, or they're a flight risk.

377
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,000
And so your law enforcement helped me with that assessment.

378
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:59,000
We've reduced greatly the number of children that go to detention.

379
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:08,000
So I think it's important for everyone to understand that just because I get a call in the middle of the night that a child allegedly committed a crime.

380
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Does not mean that they automatically go to detention.

381
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,000
And there are a lot of people out there that think they should just go to detention.

382
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,000
So I'll draw this comparison.

383
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:23,000
If one of you got arrested in the middle of the night and you were taking a jail, what would immediately happen to you?

384
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:27,000
You'd be able to bond out, right?

385
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:31,000
Well, children, there's no bonding process for children.

386
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,000
And so our goal is to find a safe place for them to go.

387
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,000
And typically the parent will receive the child back in the home.

388
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,000
And I've been very impressed with law enforcement.

389
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:50,000
As we've worked together, their ability to calm the children down or calm the parent down and get things back in line.

390
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:58,000
And allow the children to stay in the home rather than sending them to detention.

391
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,000
And because of the cost, it's something I have to pay attention to.

392
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:10,000
$175 a day adds up quickly, doesn't it?

393
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,000
All right.

394
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,000
I'll breathe through these.

395
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,000
We've had a number of speaking engagements this year.

396
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,000
I was asked to speak at the judicial leadership conference at Ole Miss.

397
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,000
The beginning of last year.

398
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,000
I've spoken at a child welfare conference at Mississippi College.

399
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,000
I've spoken at the Portland Impact Group.

400
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,000
I've spoken at a child by five.

401
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,000
Speak to the grand jury.

402
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,000
Every time it meets various costs of events.

403
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:40,000
I presented with the staff and stakeholders at the Mississippi Youth Court Judge and Referee Conference.

404
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,000
This was a big deal in a big honor.

405
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:47,000
But this is all the youth court judges from the state come down for convention.

406
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,000
And they chose our court to do the presentation.

407
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:57,000
And we had a three hour segment where we walk through how to process a case.

408
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000
And I had all the stakeholders there.

409
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:04,000
And that's we were able to to show what we do.

410
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,000
And talk about compliance and what we do to comply with the law.

411
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:15,000
So this was a really big deal to be able to present to all the judges in Mississippi.

412
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:21,000
And then I presented at the National Judicial Summit in Minneapolis.

413
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,000
The judicial summits do not happen annually.

414
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,000
They're kind of a special called meeting.

415
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:31,000
And I was asked to speak by Dr. Jerry Milner.

416
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:37,000
So Dr. Jerry Milner paid me a visit back in July or August.

417
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,000
And Dr. Milner, if you can think about it.

418
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:44,000
I mean, he is the he's the just Dickinson.

419
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,000
He was the commissioner for Mississippi.

420
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:51,000
He's he's the commissioner for the whole country for child welfare.

421
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:56,000
So he's he's one under a cabinet position to the president.

422
00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:02,000
And he came to Hancock County, Mississippi, to meet with me and see what we're doing in our court.

423
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,000
And then he asked me to speak in Minneapolis.

424
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:11,000
And I tell you all this because I'm really proud of the work that we've all done.

425
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:20,000
And in the credit goes to the people that you will hear from shortly.

426
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:25,000
But to be sitting in Minneapolis at this conference,

427
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,000
knowing I'm speaking later in the day.

428
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:34,000
Dr. Milner gave his opening address.

429
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:45,000
And he's talking about everything that's going wrong in our country and child welfare.

430
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:49,000
And all the things we know about and all the things that we're trying to fix throughout the country.

431
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:54,000
And then he says, but there's hope.

432
00:43:54,000 --> 00:44:02,000
And he said, for example, in Hancock County, Mississippi.

433
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:08,000
In our table with Mississippi delegates, we all started looking at each other.

434
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,000
And he began to tell our story.

435
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,000
And all I could do was cry.

436
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:24,000
But it was a huge honor to be recognized on a national stage and then be able to present later that day.

437
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:33,000
And I was asked to speak about engaging with parents in the courtroom.

438
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:39,000
And this is where the rubber meets the road, I believe, for our court success.

439
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:45,000
And that is making sure that we talk to parents in a civil manner,

440
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:49,000
respectfully, and let them know that we care.

441
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,000
So we use those words.

442
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,000
We tell them we care about you.

443
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,000
And we want to make a difference in your life.

444
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,000
That's what they need.

445
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:30,000
And I believe that's what's making a difference in our quorum. We do a lot of training, a lot of training. And I think this is the other thing that really helps achieve good outcomes. Last January, we had a multidisciplinary training on risk assessment. So we're all learning at the same time. What does it mean to look at risk in the home and how do we make these decisions of whether or

446
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:59,000
how to be removed or not? But it's 75 stakeholders for that. We have monthly staff meetings where we specifically train on issues. It is not uncommon for people to have questions in the courthouse and my typical response is let's get the rule book out. Let's get the statute book out and let's read what it says. We have a couple trainings. One week long technical assistance training with the administrative office of courts.

447
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:17,000
We completed darkness to light training, which was taught by Hupavin. We've done a lot of different in services. One with Guffport Behavioral Health and they taught us about their mobile assessment unit that will assess if we do think there is a child who is a threat to themselves.

448
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:23,000
I visited the Audrey Hepburn Center, which is a child advocacy center in New Orleans.

449
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:34,000
I attended the one loud voice conference. We had staff there. That is a conference that is sponsored by the Child Advocacy Center, the state Advocacy Center.

450
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:42,000
We did some team building with Mississippi Power, of course, attended the Mississippi Judicial Comments.

451
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:49,000
We attended it with teamwork our kids when training and this was at Michael Memorial Baptist Church in Guffport.

452
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:58,000
I think six or eight counties were in attendance. We had 65 people there. I think we counted ten tables, maybe eight or ten tables.

453
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:05,000
We were half of the room and the other counties were the other half. It was impressive to see that we had law enforcement there.

454
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:17,000
We had teachers. We had, you know, all of our regular shareholders, they are stakeholders there to learn this again, this material about trauma and safety and assessment.

455
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:28,000
I attended the Casa National Convention, where our Casa Director, Cynthia Shivan, was honored with the National Casa Director of the Year Award.

456
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:32,000
I hosted the Casey Foundation in June.

457
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:48,000
Christopher Church did a data review of what's been happening in Haincock County and he pulled information from CPS and his words were remarkable what has happened in Haincock County.

458
00:47:48,000 --> 00:48:01,000
We've done in service with Gulf Coast Mental Health who is one of our partners to treat kids, but they also provide service to us as listeners in the courtroom were subjected to hearing trauma.

459
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:10,000
So we have secondary risk, secondary trauma risk. So we do things to ameliorate those risks.

460
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:20,000
We did an LGBTQT training in the late fall and had ever 70 stakeholders present for that.

461
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,000
We did an in-service with Gulf Coast Center for non-violence.

462
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:32,000
I attended a reasonable efforts academy in Nashville and I was one of four judges selected to do that.

463
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:44,000
Staff members have also done various training online and going to different trainings throughout the Gulf Coast visited various residential treatment facilities throughout Mississippi.

464
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:57,000
Those are where kids replace if they have some type of mental health diagnosis, so they may not be in a foster home, but they'd be in a residential treatment facility like Mill Creek of McGee.

465
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:02,000
I went to these places because I wanted to see where these kids were.

466
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:08,000
And I was shocked to learn that there's only a handful of judges that have ever stepped foot in these buildings.

467
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:16,000
I felt it was important to see where these kids are living and let those kids know that I'm there and I'm paying attention.

468
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:31,000
And as a result of some of these visits, we now get monthly reporting from the facility and they provide us with monthly reports, which is good for us and also help CPS and getting the information they need to know about the child.

469
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:40,000
We hosted with CASA 2-day conference on trust-based relational intervention, it's called TBRI, it's a trauma informed court and system approach to child welfare.

470
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:46,000
We had close to 100 participants in that. So that was learning about trauma. It was a two-day training.

471
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:52,000
We had Judge Carol Clark from Texas and Dr. Winston from Texas.

472
00:49:52,000 --> 00:50:07,000
Every court in Texas has to be certified in TBRI and there are no certified trauma courts in Mississippi that I'm aware of, but we want to be the first.

473
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:18,000
And I think this was a good step in formulating a plan to determine how we can implement trauma informed practices into our court room.

474
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:25,000
We have lots of partnerships. We have monthly meetings with CPS.

475
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:34,000
I'm made within monthly, coordinate meetings with CPS and school leadership, also with law enforcement and the NBT.

476
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:38,000
We've conducted in-service and periodic meetings with CASA.

477
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:43,000
We've continued focus on MDT that MDT is the multi-disciplinary team.

478
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:52,000
And so when a case comes in, if it's a felony case, the MDT, which is housed at or facilitated by hood pavement,

479
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:58,000
they monitor that case to make sure that it's moving appropriately through the legal system,

480
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:04,000
but also that the children and the families are getting the services that they need.

481
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:09,000
And while I'm here, let me just mention this.

482
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:19,000
Where you need in Hacau County and that when a report is filed with CPS, that report comes to our court.

483
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:23,000
And so we have an intake officer who reviews that report.

484
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:28,000
And so that gives us the heads-up that there's something that's going on with that family.

485
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:33,000
But that report is also law enforcement, it has it.

486
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,000
But the MDT gets it as well.

487
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:41,000
So there are a lot of eyes on what's happening in our system.

488
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:45,000
And I just think that's important and comforting to know because it does not work like that.

489
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:56,000
I mean a lot with school leadership, so having good partnerships with the schools is very important.

490
00:51:56,000 --> 00:52:01,000
We've recently begun to address the needs of children that have IEPs.

491
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:06,000
And I've partnered with the school rights attorney in Jackson and we're about to become.

492
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:14,000
We're trying to develop a protocol for using his services when children have IEPs.

493
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:18,000
So an IEP is an individualized educational plan.

494
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:23,000
And so if your child had one, you would be at the school, right, advocating for them.

495
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,000
Or kids and custody don't have that parent.

496
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,000
They have a foster parent.

497
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,000
But they don't have that parent to do that.

498
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:40,000
So we're going to specialize in this and create a team that will be able to advocate for that child to make sure that that child's best interest in school or being met.

499
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,000
We have lots of interface with law enforcement.

500
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,000
We've hosted coffee with a cop.

501
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:53,000
One of our big ticket items this year that I was to provide training within law enforcement.

502
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:57,000
We've done the night out of crime, night out against crime.

503
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:00,000
We hosted Mandy's room, which went over really well.

504
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,000
We hosted that with a resource center.

505
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:09,000
That was a trailer that was brought to our facility for parents to go through to see if they could.

506
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:13,000
If they could identify issues with drugs.

507
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:18,000
Things to be on on the lookout for.

508
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,000
The last one is partners at the table.

509
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,000
I meet monthly with the stakeholders.

510
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:23,000
And this is an opportunity.

511
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,000
It's called our Pat lunch.

512
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,000
And so director of CPS, Casa, mental health.

513
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,000
All we all sit around the table.

514
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,000
And there's no formal agenda.

515
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,000
But it's an opportunity for us to talk about what's going on.

516
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:37,000
What's happening.

517
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:38,000
What's coming up.

518
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:39,000
What projects we're working on.

519
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,000
What needs people have.

520
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,000
And inevitably at every meeting.

521
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,000
Something gets solved.

522
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,000
Or people walk out.

523
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:46,000
You know.

524
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,000
Working on projects.

525
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:52,000
Or figuring out that that can help one another with a project.

526
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,000
So I have several folks that are going to come up and speak.

527
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,000
The first of which is Rhonda Reds.

528
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:05,000
I've instructed them to stay about a minute about what they do and how they serve the youth court.

529
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:09,000
That's right.

530
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:14,000
This speaks used to vote for a minute, director.

531
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,000
Good morning to everybody.

532
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:21,000
So I spoke to you as a little bit about the program that we have last year.

533
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:25,000
And I'll just sort of mention for the for the new folks.

534
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:32,000
We were on the task force that looked at looked into the issue initially when we had this huge

535
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,000
huge influx of children into custody that weren't moving through.

536
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:41,000
And one of the things that we realized is that we had a lot of services and advocacy for children.

537
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:45,000
But there really wasn't a process for parents to get help.

538
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,000
At that point we didn't have a family representative attorney.

539
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:59,000
And so we created this program to help parents move through the process of of doing what they need to do on their service agreements in order to get their children back.

540
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:03,000
We have spent a lot of time over the last few years doing that.

541
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:12,000
We've worked with a hundred and nine families over that time and we've had been involved with 59 reunifications.

542
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:17,000
We are now serving 11 families with children in custody.

543
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,000
But then we are also working this year.

544
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,000
We sort of moved our services upstream.

545
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:27,000
So we can now work with families who have prevention cases.

546
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:35,000
So in being part of the approach to try to avoid children from being removed from the home in the first place.

547
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,000
We're working with families with prevention cases.

548
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,000
We provide services.

549
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:48,000
We help them find the services in the community that they need to get themselves to a place where they can focus on their children.

550
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:52,000
And that's really what the navigator program is about.

551
00:55:52,000 --> 00:56:01,000
We're also working with Judge Farb on creating a program that will be primarily for kids in the DOS system.

552
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:13,000
But also it may be some of those applicants that he talked about older children who need help moving from the youth court system into self-sufficiency as adults.

553
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:18,000
And so this will be a mentor program that we are developing.

554
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,000
And so that's something you'll see this year.

555
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:26,000
We'll be looking for volunteers and other other help as we develop that program.

556
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,000
Any questions for me?

557
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,000
I'll write you a question.

558
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:35,000
When you're taught or a group to deal with the kids that are transitioning into adulthood I guess.

559
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:40,000
Yeah, I mean.

560
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:45,000
And you know those kids have, if they've been in the system,

561
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:53,000
have been involved with the system for a while, they're a lot older in their experience that a lot of kids their age.

562
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:58,000
And so it is much harder to work with those with that age group.

563
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,000
Any other questions for me?

564
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:05,000
Any other questions for me?

565
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:12,000
Any other questions for me?

566
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,000
Well again, a lot of information occur.

567
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,000
I'm going to do it very briefly.

568
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:18,000
Hopefully.

569
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,000
We have at Gulf Coast Center for Nonviolence.

570
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:24,000
We've had an ongoing relationship here in the county and with the courts for quite a while.

571
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:30,000
Just to kind of give a really broad quick overview of the things that we're able to provide for youth court.

572
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:39,000
We are able to provide resources to families where they were family violence, domestic violence sexual assault,

573
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:43,000
intersex with the family violence that we're seeing at youth court.

574
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:48,000
And so we have number one are domestic violence services including shelter.

575
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:55,000
We do not have a physically located shelter in Hancock County, but we have a shelter that serves Hancock County.

576
00:57:55,000 --> 00:58:00,000
And so and we can also help facilitate transportation where that becomes necessary.

577
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:06,000
So we are able to provide for adults and their children emergency shelter in cases of domestic violence.

578
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:10,000
And everything that comes with that we provide comprehensive services.

579
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:17,000
So if they come into our shelter, we're able to provide them with their personal items, child care transportation, case management,

580
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,000
counseling, all of that.

581
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:31,000
Whether or not someone comes into shelter, if they are a victim of domestic violence, we're able to provide them with counseling, individual and group counseling.

582
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:37,000
We have in Hancock County an outreach adult counselor and an outreach youth counselor.

583
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:45,000
So people in Hancock County who need counseling services because of domestic violence, sexual assault, even human trafficking,

584
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:51,000
can see a counselor here, they don't necessarily have to come to us over in Harrison County.

585
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,000
We do have full time outreach counselors here.

586
00:58:54,000 --> 00:59:00,000
Sexual assault victims, we do the hospital crisis response 24 hours a day.

587
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:05,000
So if someone is sexually assaulted in Hancock County, we have people who will come meet them at the hospital.

588
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:09,000
Even if they don't go to the hospital, we'll meet them anywhere that they want to be.

589
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,000
We can come to jail.

590
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:15,000
We can meet them at a waffle house.

591
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:21,000
We can meet them anywhere that the client wants to meet in order to speak with someone about advocacy and find out what they want.

592
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:23,000
We have justice programs.

593
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,000
We do have advocates that are in the courts.

594
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:27,000
Sabrina Sheppens here.

595
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:33,000
She is our court advocate, but we meet with victims of domestic violence going through court cases.

596
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:38,000
And we can accompany them through the court process and provide them with resources.

597
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,000
And then we have our survivors of homicide programs.

598
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:46,000
So for those who have lost someone to homicide, we have a full range of counseling support.

599
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:50,000
And then the last thing is our outreach community program.

600
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,000
So we have adult and youth training.

601
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:55,000
We provide training as Judge Robert mentioned.

602
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,000
We did an in-service to the court.

603
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:58,000
We talk with them.

604
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,000
We have.

605
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:07,000
A youth outreach and an adult outreach person come out and provide training in the schools or to adults or law enforcement.

606
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:15,000
So, we've got many different areas that were involved in handcuffs County to provide support to the court and to the families that might need us.

607
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:21,000
Real fast. That was a lot of information and a little bit of time. Any questions?

608
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,000
Thank you.

609
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:31,000
All right, Diane. She has some really exciting things to tell you about.

610
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:37,000
Good morning. I'm Diane Bennett. I'm the director of Gulf Coast Christian Women's Job Corps Magdalene House.

611
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:50,000
And I'm exciting news is that in June of 2019, we were able to acquire some property in handcuffs County, which has enabled us to be a permanent location of the site where the women that are seeking our services and needing our help.

612
01:00:50,000 --> 01:01:01,000
They have a place that they can come because we have our mentors, there we have our teachers, we have our classrooms, we have our counseling and we have a safe space for these ladies.

613
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:06,000
So, the ladies that you see tell the story about who we are and what we're doing.

614
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:16,000
But, behind that story, I want to share with you the number of women that are not on that screen that today are experiencing sobriety.

615
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:21,000
They are experiencing the first time of being with their families for the holidays at Christmas time.

616
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:28,000
Seeing their children, getting their children back to the home and completing their court required obligations.

617
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:34,000
Whether that be completing their probation, paying their funds, their work in our community.

618
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,000
They had jobs at Walmart. They have jobs at playboard heels.

619
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,000
They are back in their community and serving the churches.

620
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:45,000
Right now, our ladies are contributing over 100 hours a week.

621
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:53,000
At community service, they are either at Keynes Kitchen or at Shoreline Park Baptist Church, providing that community service back.

622
01:01:53,000 --> 01:02:10,000
And they are taking care of themselves and therefore, once in their lives, they are recognizing what it feels like to be sober, to give back to the community, to reconcile their lives with their families, with their children, to be able to understand what it means to be redeemed and to be whole again.

623
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:19,000
We're looking at, we're working with Pearl River Community College to see how many of the women that we can get back into school and get them some education.

624
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:25,000
We're very proud to be working with all the different ones that will be coming up and speaking today.

625
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:32,000
Whether it be domestic violence, whether it be cost of, whether it be Hancock County Resource Center and the Navigator Program.

626
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:36,000
But we're excited to see what was happening in Hancock County.

627
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:46,000
There are many more women that need to come and receive our services, but we feel like they're with a permanent location that we're able to be more visible in the community and the ladies can come and see us.

628
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:53,000
We are a 5-0-1-C3 faith-based ministry, and we feel like that God has planted us here for a very special purpose.

629
01:02:53,000 --> 01:03:05,000
I appreciate all the support that you give us in this community gives us to do what we want to be, to be what we believe that God has led us to be to the women and the children and the families in this community.

630
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,000
Can you share the location?

631
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:13,000
We're actually, we're actually on 6-3.

632
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:24,000
In Hancock County, we're located right close to the Keele Cutoff Road, and our sign-out side actually says the women's community resource center.

633
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,000
Thank you.

634
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:29,000
Thank you so much.

635
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:36,000
I think Lisa Wilburne had to be out of town today, and Erin Cobb is going to tell us what's going on at Brenda's house.

636
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:37,000
Good morning.

637
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,000
I'm the social worker at Brenda's house.

638
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:46,000
Judge spoke a little bit about it, but we transitioned from the emergency children shelter to Brenda's house family center in June.

639
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:52,000
And our current services are family time, which is the supervised visitation.

640
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,000
We transport kids to and from their visitations.

641
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,000
We have creativity and coping skills classes.

642
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:03,000
We have take out Tuesdays, which is more like take out every day if they come.

643
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,000
They're eating.

644
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:08,000
We do provide breast decay and yoga.

645
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:21,000
So the mission of Brenda's house family center is to coordinate and enhance positive and supportive parental and family relationships and experiences for children that will cultivate cognitive emotional and social development.

646
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:25,000
Especially for children who have been traumatized due to child abuse and neglect.

647
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:33,000
So we are able to supervise visitations as much as our schedule will hold with the approval of CPS.

648
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:40,000
So we really do take that off of the CPS workers and provide those services for them.

649
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:50,000
Some numbers that we have figured out that we have doubled our numbers and people that we have helped since we were an emergency children shelter.

650
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:56,000
So what stands out to me is the total individual served, which is 41.

651
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:00,000
But you can look at the numbers and they're steadily growing.

652
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:08,000
130 meals provided, 75 hours of respite care and 75 visits of family time.

653
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Starting this month we are expanding.

654
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:19,000
We are beginning a DHS grant to provide our current services and outreach services directly to TANF and SNAP recipients.

655
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:24,000
To help me the goal of the DHS to preserve and promote the faintly units.

656
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:27,000
Let's see my have any questions.

657
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,000
Thank you.

658
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,000
Thank you so much.

659
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:36,000
Let me just point out how important this is because visitation was being conducted at the CPS building before.

660
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:43,000
So a mom or dad would go see their kid and be an office basically with very few toys if any.

661
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,000
And not really the place where you can really have a name.

662
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,000
Now they can get to a home setting.

663
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,000
They can be observed.

664
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:53,000
I mean there's there's a lot that she does.

665
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:57,000
I mean even educating parent observing them and they were pointing back to me.

666
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:59,000
So I see how those visitation is getting.

667
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:05,000
So we're seeing a lot of growth and the visitation is not just seeing the kid.

668
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,000
It's a productive visit.

669
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:11,000
Yeah and it really is like a home setting each room is themed.

670
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:13,000
So we have an art room, a toddler room.

671
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,000
They have full access to the kitchen.

672
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:23,000
I think that's the biggest thing that we've seen is parents are actually able to get in the kitchen and cook with their kids and sit down for a meal.

673
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,000
Things that they miss out one when they're in custody.

674
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:31,000
We have a full yard with a trampoline and a jungle gym.

675
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:35,000
So they've said multiple times that it feels like being home.

676
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:37,000
They have a birthday party.

677
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,000
So I increase in the frequency of visitation is important.

678
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:44,000
Because CPS policy only requires two a month.

679
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:47,000
So now parents can see some daily.

680
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:54,000
Yeah we have one parent that comes twice a week for four hour visits.

681
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,000
And we do provide breakfast and lunch for them.

682
01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Like I said it's one of a kind in Mississippi and it's really I think going to take off and be the trend.

683
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:09,000
Now we transfer from the transit in that a couple of years ago.

684
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:14,000
There are any other modifications that you kind of plan on that being used as it is now.

685
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,000
We plan on expanding.

686
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:19,000
We're looking at different options for parenting classes.

687
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,000
Support groups for foster kids.

688
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:28,000
We want to we want you to take off a lot more because we do have a yoga instructor that's trauma informed.

689
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:33,000
So it helps the kids sleep better at night and just kind of have a moment of peace.

690
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:41,000
But we are constantly trying to collaborate and evolve with different community partners.

691
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:42,000
And not at all.

692
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:45,000
It's operating at much lower level.

693
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:48,000
I think it's under the prior.

694
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:49,000
Closet is that.

695
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:52,000
Yeah and I was previously for the new members.

696
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,000
That was previously just a shelter.

697
01:07:54,000 --> 01:08:01,000
We had a grant that funded that based on I think 67 children being there as a number of

698
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,000
decreased years ago.

699
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:07,000
Miss Wilborn came and we kind of worked out this alternate plan.

700
01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:11,000
I'm just being a shelter to something more productive given our numbers now.

701
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:15,000
So this is a commitment on your part to keep this.

702
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:20,000
The way it is and we really appreciate because it really affects these families.

703
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:28,000
Even being able to observe how a parent is interacting with child and giving some guidance.

704
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:33,000
Maybe you should try this or why don't you move to this and play with this in this area.

705
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:37,000
I think it's just a great resource because that's where the real part.

706
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,000
Parents can't learn how to parent if they don't have their kid.

707
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:47,000
And to have some eyes on them when that's happening and giving some constructive advice, I think.

708
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:49,000
Yes.

709
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,000
We've got a few calls.

710
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:14,000
Not really in Hancock County because we did take all children of all counties.

711
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:18,000
So Jackson County is called asking about it.

712
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:24,000
But not so much Hancock County.

713
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:25,000
Respect.

714
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:29,000
Yeah, we've had 75 hours of respite care for some children.

715
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:34,000
And we've been doing foster care date for the foster parents.

716
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:41,000
So the first Friday of every month we've been essentially babysitting foster kids.

717
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:46,000
So the foster parents can run out and you know, because they're women of who the kids can stay with.

718
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,000
So.

719
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:49,000
Keeping up.

720
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:52,000
You know, also more so to accommodate all ages of children.

721
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:56,000
Yes.

722
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:57,000
From zero to 21.

723
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:58,000
Yes.

724
01:09:58,000 --> 01:09:59,000
Yes.

725
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:00,000
That's important.

726
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,000
Thank you.

727
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,000
Thank you.

728
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:04,000
All right.

729
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:07,000
I hope eight and slide day they ask me to just present.

730
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,000
Then we have the new director.

731
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:14,000
Heather runs out.

732
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:15,000
Here.

733
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:16,000
I'm brand new.

734
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,000
So bear with me.

735
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:18,000
My name's Heather.

736
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,000
So I'm so happy to be here.

737
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:21,000
So.

738
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:22,000
So hope haven.

739
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:27,000
Child advocacy center does a lot more than.

740
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:29,000
Then forensic interviews.

741
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:33,000
We have served 500 in 40 kids this year.

742
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:37,000
Through helping hands, which is our emergency assistance program.

743
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:45,000
Anything that CPS needs us to provide so that might be a bed or clothing or school supplies.

744
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:53,000
We've served 146 people through our education programs, stewards of children, which is our sexual abuse.

745
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,000
Prevention program.

746
01:10:55,000 --> 01:11:01,000
Training adults on what to see.

747
01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:06,000
We have conducted 264 forensic interviews.

748
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:15,000
I know that right now we have extended our reach not only in Hancock County, but also to Pearl River County.

749
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,000
And I'm preparing some documents yesterday.

750
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:20,000
I noticed that.

751
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:35,000
We have projected that we would serve 250 kids based on numbers in the past, but we're doubling that as we move forward.

752
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:38,000
Advocacy services.

753
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:45,000
We encourage our families to come in for emotional support.

754
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:51,000
Just yesterday I was hearing a story about a woman that that just went through a program with us.

755
01:11:51,000 --> 01:12:01,000
And she is now in school studying to be a social worker because of her experience with with us.

756
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:08,000
And then we have our Hancock County multidisciplinary team, which Tiffany dillardly.

757
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:14,000
And she coordinates everything so that there's no room for error.

758
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,000
But thank you so much.

759
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:18,000
And I look forward to working with you.

760
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:20,000
Thank you.

761
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,000
Thank you.

762
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,000
Then we have Casa.

763
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:29,000
Good morning.

764
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,000
I will I will be brief.

765
01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:33,000
I'll say that before I start.

766
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:41,000
In in 2019, Casa of Hancock County served 229 Hancock County children in foster care.

767
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:45,000
By 103 Casa volunteers.

768
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:49,000
What a milestone for us for the first time in the history of our organization.

769
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:56,000
We were able to provide advocacy at 100% level to children that were in foster care.

770
01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:04,000
Also in 2019, just far spoke a little bit about the number of outcomes that we were able to attain.

771
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:08,000
I'm so excited to say that 122 children in foster care.

772
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:09,000
She's foster care.

773
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:11,000
She's permanency in 2019.

774
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:12,000
122 kids.

775
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:18,000
We had a record breaking number of adoptions in the county as well as in the state of Mississippi.

776
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,000
We had over 60 adoptions.

777
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:25,000
We had 43 reunifications children getting to go back home.

778
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:30,000
And we had 12 other avenues in what children attained permanency.

779
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:34,000
Being guardianship or durable legal custody with another relative.

780
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:37,000
And those are just incredible milestones for us as a county.

781
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:45,000
Because over the last few years, we have seen a lot of kids staying in the foster care system for many years.

782
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:46,000
And I won't.

783
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:47,000
I could talk lots more about that.

784
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:48,000
But I won't.

785
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:53,000
I'm very proud that the 103 Casa volunteers that very diligently served.

786
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:57,000
There's 229 kids gave nearly 45.

787
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,000
I'm sorry.

788
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,000
Now, I'm going to be a 50.

789
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:05,000
5,500 hours of their volunteer time in 2019 alone.

790
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:10,000
When you think about the number associated with over 5,500 hours of volunteer time.

791
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,000
That is an incredible contribution to this county.

792
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:16,000
And two, those little ones that we serve.

793
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,000
Hit it, judge.

794
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,000
So what's the future hold for us?

795
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:27,200
What's the future hold for us?

796
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:32,240
We continue to have the goal of being able to provide an advocate for every child in foster care.

797
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:37,800
We're now at a position in which when a new child comes into custody, we have a volunteer

798
01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:43,520
ready and willing and able to take the assignment, what a blessing, but we're not stopping

799
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:44,520
there.

800
01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:47,080
A couple of things to share with you for 2020.

801
01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:53,440
We have been approved as Mississippi's only host site as of the current to receive a courthouse

802
01:14:53,440 --> 01:14:54,800
facility dog.

803
01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:59,960
Judge Farf spoke earlier about the importance and the value of having children in court being able

804
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:22,000
To participate in their hearings and in the big decisions that happen about their life. But as you can imagine, that's got to be a pretty daunting thing for kids to be a part of. Even though they get voice and they get power and they get healing from participating and knowing what's going to happen, courtrooms are generally kind of scary.

805
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:39,000
So with that being said, we applied last year about this time through canine campaigns and we have been selected to be a host site. So one of my staff members will go to training in California as soon as we get the call and in 2020 we will have the only courthouse facility dog in the state.

806
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:53,000
And I'm so proud of that. And I really do hope that we become a pilot project and that other programs in the county as well as across the state kind of follow the lead because dogs and kids are good things.

807
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:58,000
And if we can help better serve our kids, we need to keep working towards doing that.

808
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:08,000
And just like as hope haven spoke about, they are also they have a staff member or two who is trained in the darkness to light stewards for children child sexual abuse prevention curriculum.

809
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:21,000
This is a curriculum that's evidence based that shows states that for every one adult who we train in this sexual abuse prevention curriculum up to 10 children are better protected from being sexually abused.

810
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:34,000
We have a goal in our program of training 200 adults in 2020 so that 2,000 hand-cut county children are better protected from ever entering the system are being victims of child sexual abuse.

811
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:42,000
Additionally, just far spoke for a few moments about TBRI that trauma trust space relational intervention curriculum.

812
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:55,000
Our dog handler slash staff member who also supervises volunteers has now been trained in TBRI and she is our only practitioner in the county and one of two in the state.

813
01:16:55,000 --> 01:17:02,000
We will be working with the department with CPS to work with our children to hopefully stabilize them in their placements.

814
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:08,000
The trauma that our kids face is pretty real and most adults don't know how to manage it.

815
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,000
We wouldn't know how to manage it.

816
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:21,000
And so this particular evidence based curriculum is going to help as we teach foster parents and child welfare workers and all of our stakeholders how to manage these behaviors.

817
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:32,000
We hope that kids are going to have less frequent placement moves and they can maintain stability and that once they come out of the system all be it back home with their biological families.

818
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:48,000
Hopefully that's our goal but wherever they end up the people who are charged with helping to raise them are better informed and they can keep them safe and they don't have to bounce around from people because their behaviors are under less understandable.

819
01:17:48,000 --> 01:18:06,000
And as we know the trauma doesn't go away. So we want these people to be short up into adulthood so they can be productive members of our community and of if they can cut county and kind of pass the torch so that we stop the cycle of many generations of abuse and neglect here and across the country.

820
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:11,000
You have any questions?

821
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:17,000
You didn't use a microphone to say you're event is Saturday.

822
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:37,000
I've got a lot of reflections this past weekend thinking about where Hank County has been and where we are today.

823
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:46,000
You know just as Judge Farve talked about the compliance that the court system has reached and what are 97.

824
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:55,000
Hank County CPS is working on our own compliance and we have standards that we have to meet throughout the year.

825
01:18:55,000 --> 01:19:04,000
I think one of the best ones at Hank County has reached the past years is we now have some of the lowest turnover rate in the whole state of Mississippi.

826
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:18,000
The day I started in Hank County that I came back to child protection services and three and a half workers the week before I started work there seven workers walked out.

827
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:32,000
We have 25 front line staff about 13 or 14 case workers five four supervisors, a regional supervisor myself some support staff.

828
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:39,000
But as our numbers have decreased in Hank County the number of children in custody are need for case workers has decreased as well.

829
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:49,000
So we now have a fully staffed adoption unit in Hank County a fully staffed licensure unit in Hank County a lot of those have promoted and moved from front line.

830
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:54,000
We do the abuse and neglect investigations and work with families.

831
01:19:54,000 --> 01:20:00,000
So no longer does relatives that get placement of the future children that we do take into custody.

832
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:05,000
They are now licensed within 90 days which is our standard for the state.

833
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:13,000
You know a lot of the things that CPS has to meet we not only do we meet the standard we succeed it.

834
01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:28,000
A lot of the state standards are 80 to 90% a lot of the things that CPS does we're at 97 to 98% know we're not perfect we still have some things to do and you know we're continuously working to improve.

835
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:40,000
And you know we as Judge Farve talked about that we've been identified as a Mississippi miracle as I've done my reflection this past weekend I thought about what makes us that Mississippi miracle.

836
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:49,000
What led to that and I get emotional kind of thinking about it because it's really everything you just heard here today.

837
01:20:49,000 --> 01:21:00,000
It's a true partnership in my opinion that has made the Mississippi miracle everything from the board of supervisors and supporting the recommendations of the task force.

838
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:04,000
The creation of the county court system the partnership with the court.

839
01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:10,000
The partnership with this community you just heard from a lot of the service providers here in this community.

840
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:20,000
We have pulled together to make sure that we're not traumatizing children anymore than we have to.

841
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:24,000
And that has been the major thing yes we've done that within the law.

842
01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:30,000
Mr. Farve said reasonable efforts has been this federal law for many many years.

843
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:38,000
I think I county is now meeting that I think we are probably the top at the state and yes I'm probably a little bit biased.

844
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:44,000
But CPS I believe has one of the best investigation units in case work units in the whole state.

845
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:55,000
We still have areas that we need to improve on and we're continuously as we identify areas that need improvement we're working to improve that.

846
01:21:55,000 --> 01:22:03,000
It's just amazing we are the Mississippi miracle and I do believe the reason why is everything that you've heard here today, but also.

847
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:14,000
The board of supervisors has been a big part of that in supporting the development of the county court and supporting a lot of their community service providers.

848
01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:20,000
It is unique and no other county as it's experiencing that because I believe they don't have the true partnership.

849
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:29,000
From the court system CPS the community and the governmental agencies and so thank you from the bottom of my heart.

850
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:31,000
For helping us create the Mississippi miracle.

851
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:33,000
Thank you.

852
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:35,000
Thank you.

853
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,000
Thank you.

854
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,000
Was that it?

855
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:41,000
I want to say something real quick.

856
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:47,000
Thank all the various agencies for your part and creating a different culture in the youth court system because I can tell you.

857
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:53,000
And with Trent Trent I had a lot of conversation before we went to the county court system and even after.

858
01:22:53,000 --> 01:23:03,000
And I was getting numerous phone calls with people having issues and stuff and and due to his dedication all work and I hope we never lose you but I can tell you you're headed for a national.

859
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:12,000
Deal with head and up some of these plans and I hope you stay here I really do but thank all of you all for creating the partnerships.

860
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:19,000
Thank you with with Trans leadership there and what you all have done to change everything here in Hankau County has been tremendous.

861
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,000
Thank you all.

862
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:26,000
Thank you real quick I know we've gone over our time but just these are some of our initiatives for this year.

863
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:30,000
I'll just give click through and real quick.

864
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:34,000
We did write a protocol for children in the court room that will be implementing this year.

865
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:39,000
Continue training integrate TBR I last one is a real big win.

866
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:45,000
There are more options to become a treatment court and provide social workers for UIS and obtain grants for staff and programs.

867
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:55,000
We're we're looking to be out of the box and there are a lot of ways that we can seek funding that can be directly funnel to Hankau County so we found some of those avenues.

868
01:23:55,000 --> 01:24:05,000
The new CPS commissioner is Taylor cheeseman and he and I have a lot of connectivity already and he had already scheduled a meeting to come down in February to meet with us.

869
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:09,000
I have meetings in February with a national consulting firm.

870
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:20,000
A national group that does treatment court throughout the country and we're going to explore some of the ways that we can get that direction with our court.

871
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:23,000
I think that will benefit our children and families.

872
01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:26,000
Lastly I just want to thank you for your commitment.

873
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:30,000
You're one of our key partners.

874
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:34,000
I appreciate the financial resources that you commit to.

875
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:39,000
To you court and I hope that you find that I'm a good custodian of those funds.

876
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:45,000
I do monitor our expenditures and try to work hard to stay within our budget.

877
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:51,000
We do need some upgrades and improvements to our court room and our building.

878
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,000
But that's the last line that what I was thinking.

879
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,000
Doing here is thanking you for the ones that you've made.

880
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:00,000
We've just had a it's a totally different building.

881
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,000
It looks cared for now.

882
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,000
It's a it's a great court room.

883
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,000
I really do enjoy our court room.

884
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:11,000
It provides a place that's small and intimate for our family.

885
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:13,000
It's not overwhelming.

886
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:16,000
The judge isn't sitting 30 feet up on on a pedestal.

887
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:20,000
It's you're down connected with the families and that's where I like to be.

888
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:23,000
So it is a good court room is a good building.

889
01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:28,000
But there are a lot of lots to it as you all can come see anytime you want it.

890
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:32,000
I encourage you all to come over and take a tour.

891
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:39,000
And we can talk more about some of the things that we can do to partner to improve outcomes for our families.

892
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:40,000
Thank you.

893
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:43,000
Sorry we're sorry if you have any questions.

894
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:45,000
Thank you.

895
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,000
I want to encourage you.

896
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:50,000
I went to the reunification day last year with Judge Farf.

897
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:53,000
And it's a very nice occasion to attend.

898
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,000
And I would encourage everyone to try to be there.

899
01:25:56,000 --> 01:26:00,000
And Trent is his heart is truly in it for the kids.

900
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,000
I'll see in it which I've known him for quite a long time.

901
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:06,000
So but his heart is really in it.

902
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:08,000
Frank I count in the youth here.

903
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,000
So thank you for that.

904
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:11,000
Thank you.

905
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:17,000
And anytime you have questions, you know, I can't talk to you directly about cases.

906
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:19,000
That's prohibited by the law.

907
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:24,000
But if you have issues or things that you have concerns about,

908
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:28,000
we'll find a way to figure out a legal way to address the problem.

909
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,000
So anytime you have an issue, please let us know.

910
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,000
Or I'll call since you've been in there.

911
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:34,000
That's good.

912
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,000
You're welcome.

913
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:40,000
It's all about communicating and staying in touch with keeping people informed.

914
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,000
And y'all have done that.

915
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:43,000
All of you all.

916
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:44,000
Not just Judge Farf.

917
01:26:44,000 --> 01:26:46,000
But he's created the culture with you all.

918
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:48,000
And the partnership to make that happen.

919
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,000
So y'all give yourself a good hand.

920
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:54,000
Because it's all the ones doing it not us.

921
01:26:54,000 --> 01:27:00,000
I think the key to that is, like I said, parents need to be heard.

922
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:04,000
And they need to feel like the process is fair.

923
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:08,000
And so even if the outcome isn't what they want,

924
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:12,000
as long as they were treated with dignity and respect,

925
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:14,000
and felt like the process was fair,

926
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:19,000
then you can alleviate a lot of that angry issues.

927
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,000
We do have them from time to time.

928
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:24,000
We're dealing people that were traumatized themselves.

929
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:30,000
And so they don't know how to respond like we do to when things get wrong.

930
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:36,000
But as you think, the way that the demeanor of the court and the system and its entirety

931
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:42,000
is geared so that parents know that we are going to try to help,

932
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:43,000
that we are here.

933
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:46,000
In fact, good evidence.

934
01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:49,000
One of our workers is out there.

935
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:55,000
We had a parent recently called to ask for help.

936
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,000
Well, that's the culture you create.

937
01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:59,000
That is our goal.

938
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:04,000
If we can have parents reach out for help before they need it.

939
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,000
Before things get bad.

940
01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:13,000
And now that we can be trusted to put a plan in place to help them keep their children

941
01:28:13,000 --> 01:28:15,000
and better themselves, we win.

942
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:17,000
And that is our goal.

943
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:22,000
One of the best accomplishments in my opinion that we did in our first four years

944
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:24,000
was creating the county court.

945
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,000
And this is a testament to that right here.

946
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:28,000
Thank you.

947
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:29,000
Oh, yeah.

948
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:30,000
Appreciate it.

949
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:31,000
Thank you.

950
01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:32,000
We love it.

951
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:35,000
What's got to say that this is, we're just getting started here with this time.

952
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:36,000
We've learned.

953
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:40,000
I've heard a lot of, you know, outside conversations on the old company in here.

954
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,000
And truly thank you to all of you in which you do.

955
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:44,000
And I'm excited to get to learn a little more about that process.

956
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,000
It comes to down at all of you and gets to know you on a personal level.

957
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,000
But exciting, which you don't for Hancock County.

958
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:51,000
These opportunities that our families and now have years.

959
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:53,000
You know, it's got to work.

960
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,000
We appreciate everything you're all doing.

961
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:57,000
Thank you.

962
01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:58,000
Thank you.

963
01:28:58,000 --> 01:28:59,000
Thank you.

964
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,000
Yeah.

965
01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,000
Yes, ma'am.

966
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:30,000
Yeah.

967
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:53,000
All right.

968
01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:54,000
Next we're going to have a bid opening.

969
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:56,000
That was supposed to happen at 10 o'clock.

970
01:29:56,000 --> 01:29:59,000
But it is now 1032 for the beach maintenance.

971
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:09,000
First, we didn't have a motion to spread on the minutes, the publication, publication.

972
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:17,000
Motion by district 2, second by district 5. Any further discussion being none?

973
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:22,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, motion carries 5, 0.

974
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:48,000
We have a seal proposal by black diamond construction LLC, COR, 2, 0, 0, 4, 7, dash MC for the, and these are bid for the beach maintenance.

975
01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:54,000
And no, no, agenda.

976
01:30:54,000 --> 01:31:03,000
We have a total bid schedule price, a black diamond of 356,900, and zero cents.

977
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:12,000
That's 356,900, zero.

978
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:23,000
The bid doesn't include a bid bond, any amount of 5% from the Ohio cashily company.

979
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:31,000
Next, we have a seal proposal by both breeze construction, ink, COR, 1, 1, 0, 7, 0.

980
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:38,000
Received 943 AM this morning.

981
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:52,000
I think it's a bit of training on the,

982
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:56,000
Yeah, probably.

983
01:31:56,000 --> 01:32:02,000
It doesn't include a bid bond from the great cashily security company.

984
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:09,000
State say total base schedule schedule 1 of 431,950,000, zero cents.

985
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:14,000
That is 431,950.

986
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:16,000
And those are the only two bits.

987
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:19,000
Received a record of black, we have no electronic bid.

988
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,000
Is there anyone else claim to submit a bid?

989
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:23,000
It wasn't a red allowed.

990
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:28,000
And it's valid if you can let the record reflect that there are no other persons claim to submit a bid.

991
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:31,000
If we have a motion to take these under advisement.

992
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,000
Motion by district 2.

993
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:36,000
Second by district 1 to take these under advisement.

994
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:38,000
Any further discussion?

995
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:39,000
Be in none.

996
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:41,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

997
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:43,000
Motion carries 5, zero.

998
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:47,000
No, let's see.

999
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:50,000
Next up.

1000
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:59,000
Next up, we have Mr. Jim Falk.

1001
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:06,000
Thank you.

1002
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:07,000
All right.

1003
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:08,000
Be.

1004
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:09,000
I feel good.

1005
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:10,000
Good.

1006
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:11,000
Yeah.

1007
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:13,000
It's called the mayor's office.

1008
01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:14,000
That's good.

1009
01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:16,000
Hello, y'all.

1010
01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:17,000
Yeah.

1011
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:18,000
All right.

1012
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:28,000
Mr. Eddie Farb called me in for a meeting at his office and said that now that the law went through about

1013
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:36,000
to get a salary to deputies that I had to appoint him each year one year of the time.

1014
01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:46,000
So I'm here to do that plus I need to tell you why I need deputies.

1015
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:51,000
Number one reason is the law.

1016
01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:54,000
Mr. Cipi code.

1017
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:59,000
Statue number 4, 1, dash, 6, 1, dash, 5, 7.

1018
01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:06,000
States that want a population of the county reaches a total of 20,000 or more of people.

1019
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:11,000
There shall be one or more officially appointed deputies.

1020
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,000
That's number one.

1021
01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:25,000
Number two is I've got other counties to compare us to if that's needed.

1022
01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:35,000
There's several times all the time where there's more than one death at a time.

1023
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:39,000
I just did a quick thing last 30 days.

1024
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:45,000
There's a five deaths on 12, 6 on the one day.

1025
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:48,000
Three deaths on 12, 17.

1026
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:51,000
Three deaths on 12, 30.

1027
01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:53,000
Three deaths on 1, 2.

1028
01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:56,000
On 1, 7, 1, 8 and 1, 10.

1029
01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:58,000
All three each.

1030
01:34:58,000 --> 01:34:59,000
All.

1031
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:01,000
You know, on the same day.

1032
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:07,000
Oftentimes they're at the same time and you've got multiple.

1033
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:09,000
You've got law enforcement agencies.

1034
01:35:09,000 --> 01:35:10,000
You've got the fire department.

1035
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:12,000
You've got AMR.

1036
01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:15,000
A lot of people involved that have to wait.

1037
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:19,000
And if I did them, you know, consecutive lead.

1038
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:24,000
And they had to wait two and three and four hours at a time to stand there.

1039
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:25,000
It's just not good.

1040
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:27,000
It won't work.

1041
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:35,000
There's other counties that like I was talking about.

1042
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:41,000
Pearl River is probably the closest one to us.

1043
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:50,000
They have a population of 55,487, which is ours is 47,334.

1044
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:57,000
They have four employees and three deputies on a full-time secretary.

1045
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:04,000
They only have 8,000 more people than we do.

1046
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:11,000
And George County is a half of this county size.

1047
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:18,000
And they have a one full-time deputy.

1048
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,000
It just gives an idea.

1049
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:33,000
And I've got Melissa Taylorn who volunteered to learn forensic medicine, forensic science.

1050
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:35,000
Must have been 34 years ago.

1051
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:36,000
Yeah.

1052
01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:50,000
And anyway, she's been working for over a year now in paying for her vehicle and her gas and her expenses to get to over a hundred death investigations.

1053
01:36:50,000 --> 01:37:00,000
I think she's been paid per case like a hundred twenty five dollars a case for between four and five that whole time.

1054
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:10,000
Just to be able to learn and to be able to diagnose natural deaths and of course other death manners as well.

1055
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:15,000
And so I would like to officially appoint her.

1056
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:26,000
And then we've got Mary Costa who works for the police on Wednesday on the court on Sunday and then spend time with her family stuff like that.

1057
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:33,000
Who also could be a two-deck of these all together.

1058
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:39,000
Anybody have any questions?

1059
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:44,000
This could have been brought up during the budget time because I mean we didn't budget for this.

1060
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:48,000
You know for you having two if we're required to have at least one we're going to do that.

1061
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,000
We have to do that.

1062
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:57,000
But as far as having two I don't think anybody up here is going to support having two.

1063
01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:06,000
As you know because it's not it wasn't budgeted come budget time now coming back in and we get ready to start our budget for the upcoming year.

1064
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:11,000
Maybe so I think that'd be an appropriate time just in my opinion to address that.

1065
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:16,000
I just don't think that having two I mean you say it's necessary.

1066
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:22,000
But we're we're only required to have one deputy according to the law which the statute that you read.

1067
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,000
And and have to pay them.

1068
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:31,000
I mean anywhere from 300 to nine nine hundred dollars a month I believe it is which is up to us on what we pay them.

1069
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:40,000
But to me I mean we we're going to have to address this I believe in October for the second one because we have a letter that actually from you.

1070
01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:45,000
About one of them doing it and there he has it is and about one of them when they were appointed.

1071
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:57,000
Wouldn't call security a dime other than the fee that they receive for investigating a death if they're so what I told her was.

1072
01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:58,000
Correct.

1073
01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:03,000
If I might go back a little bit further than that.

1074
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:08,000
Back in 2013 March of 2013.

1075
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:14,000
There was a motion by the board at that time to remove deputy coroners.

1076
01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:19,000
Keith Everman and Harry Hamrick.

1077
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:21,000
Due to lack of interest.

1078
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:22,000
Yeah.

1079
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:23,000
No they were eliminated.

1080
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:27,000
But it was also leaving Dr. Patrick McCrosson.

1081
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:28,000
Yes.

1082
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:33,000
And and adding Mary Costa as deputies.

1083
01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:38,000
So prior to the last one there were already two deputies.

1084
01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:42,000
And I don't think I wasn't aware that we had a second one.

1085
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:44,000
I knew we had in Miss Costa.

1086
01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:49,000
But this one back in 2013 says you have two deputies back then.

1087
01:39:49,000 --> 01:39:56,000
And then the the latest one was was was was with Melissa.

1088
01:39:56,000 --> 01:40:00,000
And it says that neither deputy is costing the taxpayer anything.

1089
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,000
The fees that are paid.

1090
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:06,000
It's going to get paid to somebody whether it's to you and to them.

1091
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:11,000
But there were no salaries attached to any of the deputies.

1092
01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:12,000
Yeah.

1093
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:13,000
There was no salaries until there was.

1094
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:14,000
Correct.

1095
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:18,000
And then when this latest bill was passed by the legislature.

1096
01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:25,000
Changing the various salaries for the mostly elected officials.

1097
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,000
And some appointed.

1098
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:33,000
It mandated number one that you have to have at least one deputy.

1099
01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:41,000
And that there is a mandatory salary attached to the deputies of between 300 and 900 per month.

1100
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:42,000
That's correct.

1101
01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:46,000
And as President said, we haven't budgeted any of it.

1102
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:50,000
So whatever we end up doing is going to mandate a budget amendment.

1103
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:54,000
So that is going to be step one is authorized and.

1104
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:57,000
Nancy to prepare a budget amendment.

1105
01:40:57,000 --> 01:40:59,000
To cover whatever it is.

1106
01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:03,000
My recommendation at this time would be.

1107
01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:06,000
Because of it being midyear none of it budgeted.

1108
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:09,000
We've got to go to the.

1109
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:12,000
Go through the amendment process.

1110
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,000
Would be to a point.

1111
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:16,000
One deputy at this time.

1112
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:18,000
At the minimum salary.

1113
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:23,000
And then revisit the issue when we get into the budget cycle.

1114
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:27,000
Which will be starting in the May the May time period.

1115
01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:31,000
That's when we'll start working on next year's budget.

1116
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:34,000
So I would that would be my recommendation.

1117
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:39,000
At this time simply because it's not included in the budget and we've got to go back.

1118
01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:42,000
And so you say, I need to appoint one.

1119
01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:44,000
That would be my recommendation.

1120
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:45,000
Jim is till point one.

1121
01:41:45,000 --> 01:41:47,000
At the 300.

1122
01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:48,000
Three hundred.

1123
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:49,000
Three hundred.

1124
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,000
We will revisit the budget.

1125
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:52,000
Kind of budget cycle.

1126
01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:54,000
We start discussion budget for next year.

1127
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:55,000
And may or June.

1128
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:56,000
Oh, I understand.

1129
01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:57,000
Yeah.

1130
01:41:57,000 --> 01:41:58,000
No.

1131
01:41:58,000 --> 01:41:59,000
There's not anything like this.

1132
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:00,000
Yeah.

1133
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:01,000
Not anything like this.

1134
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:03,000
And during and during that time.

1135
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:06,000
During during the as the budget cycle begins.

1136
01:42:06,000 --> 01:42:08,000
We'll also be looking at this year's budget.

1137
01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:14,000
To see if there's any room to do anything other than what the recommendation is today.

1138
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:19,000
And not have to wait until the new fiscal year starts in October.

1139
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:22,000
As a possibility, no guarantees on that.

1140
01:42:22,000 --> 01:42:27,000
Strickly depends on where we stand as we get into the budget cycle.

1141
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:30,000
But that would be my recommendation.

1142
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:31,000
Yeah.

1143
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:32,000
At this time.

1144
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:34,000
And as far as which one.

1145
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:36,000
I could say.

1146
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:38,000
According to this, you have three.

1147
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:39,000
Not two.

1148
01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:41,000
According to this, you have three.

1149
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:42,000
Right now.

1150
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:45,000
Who's the third doctor?

1151
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:47,000
Of my crossing.

1152
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:48,000
My crossing.

1153
01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:49,000
Oh, no.

1154
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:51,000
His teaching medical school that LSU.

1155
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:52,000
Okay.

1156
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:57,000
So if nothing else, we need to remove him from the approved list.

1157
01:42:57,000 --> 01:42:58,000
Yeah.

1158
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:01,000
And since whoever you're going to appoint is going to be the only one.

1159
01:43:01,000 --> 01:43:06,000
We would remove the other one as well, whichever one has that you don't appoint.

1160
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:10,000
And as the list, if you've been through the training already, that's the.

1161
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:11,000
Okay.

1162
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:12,000
All right.

1163
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:15,000
Well, I want to make a motion to remove the doctor.

1164
01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:16,000
What's his name?

1165
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:17,000
Crosse.

1166
01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:19,000
Patrick McCross.

1167
01:43:19,000 --> 01:43:21,000
Certainly.

1168
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:23,000
There's the deputy corners.

1169
01:43:23,000 --> 01:43:26,000
I've got a motion by district four.

1170
01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:28,000
Second by district one.

1171
01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:30,000
Any further discussion?

1172
01:43:30,000 --> 01:43:35,000
Is there a bond requirement?

1173
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:36,000
Is there a bond requirement?

1174
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,000
I'm not that I know.

1175
01:43:38,000 --> 01:43:39,000
I was problem.

1176
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:43,000
I know I had to get a bond a long time ago.

1177
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:44,000
Yeah.

1178
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:45,000
I'm thinking everything.

1179
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:46,000
I don't know the details.

1180
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:47,000
Yeah.

1181
01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:48,000
I'm thinking a little bit.

1182
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:49,000
All right.

1183
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:50,000
Any further discussion?

1184
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:52,000

Taylor.

1192
01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:06,000

1193
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:07,000
Melissa.

1194
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:09,000

At the rate of $300.

1196
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:13,000
At the rate of $300 a month.

1197
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:18,000
And we need to authorize count control to submit.

1198
01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:20,000
Budget amendment.

1199
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:21,000
All right.

1200
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:23,000
Need a motion to second?

1201
01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:24,000
Motion.

1202
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:25,000
Motion.

01:44:25,000 --> 01:44:26,000
Second.

1204
01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:27,000
Second by district five.

1205
01:44:27,000 --> 01:44:30,000
Any further discussion?

That'll do it.

1209
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:41,000
Thank you, Mr. Jim, but thank you all.

1210
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:45,000
One other cleanup item.

1211
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:48,000
Mary Acosta was also one of the previous deputies.

1212
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:55,000
So for the record, if we can remove her from payroll at same time.

1213
01:44:55,000 --> 01:44:58,000
To either add it to the motion to remove

1214
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,000
McCrosson or as a separate.

1215
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:02,000
We do a separate motion to remove Mr. Costa.

1216
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:04,000
We need to do a separate motion.

1217
01:45:04,000 --> 01:45:06,000
We do a separate motion.

1218
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:08,000
I need a motion to second.

01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:10,000

All right. Thank you.

1229
01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:31,000
All right.

1230
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:33,000
Now we're all to our left of the committee.

1231
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:34,000
Yeah.

1232
01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:35,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1233
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:37,000
Yes.

1234
01:45:37,000 --> 01:45:38,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1235
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:39,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1236
01:45:39,000 --> 01:45:40,000
Yes.

1237
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:41,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1238
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:42,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1239
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:43,000
Yes.

1240
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:44,000
Mr. Mayor Costa.

1241
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:45,000
OK.

1242
01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:46,000
I'm in the record reflect.

1243
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:52,000
We have a full recusal on item 6A1 by Supervisor District 4.

1244
01:45:52,000 --> 01:45:55,000
He's left the room up to this meeting in discussion.

1245
01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:01,000
Yes.

1246
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:03,000
I need to go to the next meeting.

1247
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:04,000
The more.

1248
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:05,000
I got you.

1249
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:11,000
I need a motion to approve the F120 Mercy Management Performance Grant,

1250
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:15,000
Application and Work Plan and Authorized Board President of the Sun.

1251
01:46:15,000 --> 01:46:17,000
Second.

1252

New boards, so we'd be at all sites out now for exactly.

1309
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:27,000
And because I know the pineapple guys, I don't know.

1310
01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,000

1317
01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:01,000
Second, my district three.

1318
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:03,000
Any further discussion?

1319
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:07,000
Being none, district one, two, three, four, and five.

1320
01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:09,000
Motion carries five, zero.

1321
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:15,000
On the last item, a little of the item where we had with this.

1322
01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:23,000
This was a right away permit that was requested by AT&T back in the end of last year.

1323
01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:29,000
And prior to the October 21 meeting, just had it on his agenda for that meeting to approve

1324
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:31,000
this right away permit.

1325
01:51:31,000 --> 01:51:37,000
And it comes to our attention that AT&T had installed the utilities in the county right away

1326
01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:39,000
as of that date.

1327
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:47,000
And just a letter to AT&T representative on November 11th.

1328
01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:51,000
So I'm communication back and forth.

1329
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:55,000
I think they have a minute that it was there utilities.

1330
01:51:55,000 --> 01:52:01,000
But since then, we haven't really got any direction on which way to go with this.

1331
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:03,000
It's in the ground already.

1332
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:07,000
I don't know if we move forward.

1333
01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:09,000
Gary have any other questions?

1334
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:17,000
Or they basically did this before getting the permit without paying for a permit.

1335
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:21,000
So we had a line and it wasn't inspected either.

1336
01:52:21,000 --> 01:52:25,000
So your options are obviously wanting to tell them to remove it out of your right away.

1337
01:52:25,000 --> 01:52:31,000
And then it comes as we can do an inspection or we can try to work out something differently.

1338
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:33,000
Yeah.

1339
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:35,000
Yeah.

1340
01:52:35,000 --> 01:52:43,000
I mean, an inspection at the minimum.

1341
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:45,000
Yeah.

1342
01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:47,000
Yeah.

1343
01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:49,000
Yeah.

1344
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:51,000
Yeah.

1345
01:52:51,000 --> 01:52:53,000
Yeah.

1346
01:52:53,000 --> 01:53:09,000
And I guess we need to reach out to them and make sure that they understand the process for one.

1347
01:53:09,000 --> 01:53:11,000
I know they do.

1348
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:15,000
Because they've been through this several times apparently.

1349
01:53:15,000 --> 01:53:17,000
But I mean, maybe we need to read it right to them.

1350
01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:21,000
Whoever their managers or whatever to make sure that they get here.

1351
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:23,000
Before they do any work.

1352
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:31,000
I mean, I would suggest you all thrust Jeffrey and I to send a letter back.

1353
01:53:31,000 --> 01:53:35,000
Making them indicate our intent is to make them remove it.

1354
01:53:35,000 --> 01:53:39,000
If we get a response differently, we'll bring it back to you and let you know.

1355
01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:41,000
He's going to go from there.

1356
01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:45,000
So if you all are okay with that, if you can authorize myself and Jeff to send a letter to

1357
01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:51,000
the letter to 18C requiring them to remove the line from the right of way.

1358
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:55,000
And within a response, we'll bring it back to you.

1359
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:56,000
In motion.

1360
01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:57,000
I'll make a motion.

1361
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,000
Motion by district two.

1362
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:01,000
Second by district five.

1363
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:03,000
Any further discussion?

1364
01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:07,000
Well, that's okay.

1365
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:13,000
Being a nine district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

1366
01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:14,000
All right.

1367
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:16,000
I think that's all right.

1368
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:17,000
What we were needing some direction.

1369
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:18,000
Which way to go?

1370
01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:19,000
Okay.

1371
01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:20,000
Thank you guys.

1372
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:21,000
Anything for me?

1373
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:22,000
Thank you.

1374
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:23,000
Thank you.

1375
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:24,000

01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:32,000
It's still morning.

1379
01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:36,000
First up, I have a motion to approve creating an office manager position.

1380
01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:43,000
At McLeod Park, this will not require any additional personnel or a budget amendment.

1381
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:46,000
So you're just moving someone there.

1382
01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:47,000
Yeah.

1383
01:54:47,000 --> 01:54:48,000
He's creating a position.

1384
01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:50,000
I need a motion to the second.

01:54:50,000 --> 01:54:52,000

1386
01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:54,000

1397
01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:08,000
No.

She can do it from home and midnight.

1402
01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:21,000
You know.

1403
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:24,000
And on the weekends when we have problems, she can handle it all from home.

1404
01:55:24,000 --> 01:55:25,000
That end Facebook.

1405

Yeah.

1410
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:35,000
I said that's it.

1411
01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:36,000
I'm so pretty sure.

1412
01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:38,000
I'm standing in the house.

1413
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:39,000

It's not the second error, so you let it go.

01:57:31,980 --> 01:57:35,980
We're not the second error.

1500
01:57:35,980 --> 01:57:38,980
Any further discussion?

1501
01:57:38,980 --> 01:57:42,980

1502
01:57:42,980 --> 01:57:44,980

1503
01:57:44,980 --> 01:57:48,980

And five.

1566
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:11,000
We're excited to have him back. Second motion, approve and authorize the Board President's sign, the second amendment to the master agreement between Hencott County Sheriff's Office and Secure of Technologies.

1567
02:00:00,980 --> 02:00:01,980
Motion carries five.

1568
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:13,000
And this is...

1569
02:00:13,000 --> 02:00:22,000
That's the innate voice, our video chat and everything. It's just that we're moving along with the contract. It's already in place. We're just continuing on with it.

1570
02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:31,000
And this one will have to add a provision. It's intended for a 48 month contract. And so we'll have to just put in their typical provision that we can't buy the successor board.

1571
02:00:31,000 --> 02:00:37,000
And then also they have one hold harm, so we'll have to scratch out of there. And so I'll send you that word.

1572
02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:42,000
It's not going to be contingent upon those modifications that are stated by the county attorney.

1573
02:00:42,000 --> 02:00:44,000
I need a motion to the second.

1574
02:00:44,000 --> 02:00:50,000
I'm going to switch my district three, the second my district five, any further discussion?

1575
02:00:50,000 --> 02:00:56,000
Me and none, district one, two, three, four, and five, motion carries five, zero.

1576
02:00:56,000 --> 02:01:03,000
Third motion, approve. Mike Berkett to get a basic computer forensic examiner, course in Orlando, Florida, April 26th, through May 8th.

1577
02:01:03,000 --> 02:01:14,000
The tuition is 29.95 hotel state of the 1714.56 cents in advance payment of 728 dollars in food pretty.

1578
02:01:14,000 --> 02:01:16,000
And this is all budget.

1579
02:01:16,000 --> 02:01:18,000
This is all budget.

1580
02:01:18,000 --> 02:01:24,000
Second, my district one, any further discussion?

1581
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:31,000
Be a none, district one, two, three, four, and five, motion carries five, zero.

1582
02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:39,000
Fourth motion, approve. Howard Parker and Christopher Robinson to get a certified examer, course in the Luxe, May 18th, through 22nd.

1583
02:01:39,000 --> 02:01:43,000
tuition in the cost of 7,785 dollars.

1584
02:01:43,000 --> 02:01:46,000
That's, so, I don't hear that, gas.

1585
02:01:46,000 --> 02:01:50,000
What that is, that's a CVSA, which is a voice stress analysis machine.

1586
02:01:50,000 --> 02:01:54,000
So, essentially, the tuition, we're buying the machine.

1587
02:01:54,000 --> 02:01:57,000
The machine comes for the tuition.

1588
02:01:57,000 --> 02:01:59,000
In other words, it's $7,000.

1589
02:01:59,000 --> 02:02:01,000
We're having two people plus the machine.

1590
02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:05,000
It's not just a class, because when we talk with Eddie, like $7,000,

1591
02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:07,000
since somebody to be lucky, he seems extreme.

1592
02:02:07,000 --> 02:02:09,000
It's actually the equipment.

1593
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:10,000
It's sole source provider.

1594
02:02:10,000 --> 02:02:15,000
You can't get through anybody else, so that's why the cost, you're really buying the machine.

1595
02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:16,000
In the tuition.

1596
02:02:16,000 --> 02:02:22,000
When it's finalized, we'll have to come back to the board, because the price for the new equipment

1597
02:02:22,000 --> 02:02:29,000
is $59.95 of the $7,000, but that also includes a trade-in of the old.

1598
02:02:29,000 --> 02:02:32,000
The base price without the trade-ins, like $9,000.

1599
02:02:32,000 --> 02:02:34,000
So, come down to the finalize it.

1600
02:02:34,000 --> 02:02:39,000
We'll come back to the board and take in the old off authorizing it to be used as a trade-in.

1601
02:02:39,000 --> 02:02:40,000
Sure.

1602
02:02:40,000 --> 02:02:41,000
On a particular note.

1603
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:43,000
It doesn't mean it's a false trade.

1604
02:02:43,000 --> 02:02:46,000
We do have a source letter.

1605
02:02:46,000 --> 02:02:47,000
Right.

1606
02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:48,000
We're one of the few on the coasts.

1607
02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:49,000
We're actually the feds.

1608
02:02:49,000 --> 02:02:51,000
The state all bring come to us to use this.

1609
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:53,000
I mean, it's one of the things a grand jury loves.

1610
02:02:53,000 --> 02:02:55,000
When I come into our, what's that?

1611
02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:56,000
Yeah.

1612
02:02:56,000 --> 02:02:59,000
We get, we get help.

1613
02:02:59,000 --> 02:03:00,000
We get help.

1614
02:03:00,000 --> 02:03:01,000
Return.

1615
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:02,000
Most of the Zagman.

1616
02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:03,000
Most of the Zagman.

1617
02:03:03,000 --> 02:03:04,000
Most of the Zagman.

1618
02:03:04,000 --> 02:03:05,000
Most of the Zagman.

1619
02:03:05,000 --> 02:03:06,000
Most of the Zagman.

1620
02:03:06,000 --> 02:03:07,000
Most of the Zagman.

1621
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:08,000
Most of the Zagman.

1622
02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:09,000
Sold source letter.

1623
02:03:09,000 --> 02:03:11,000
From the shares department in there.

1624
02:03:11,000 --> 02:03:16,000
On the 317-13 indicated it's a source source.

1625
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:20,000
And so, improving this president's Deal's $1,000.

1626
02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:23,000
We're making a fine of local treatment first.

1627
02:03:23,000 --> 02:03:25,000
And now it should be a source item.

1628
02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:26,000
We've got a motion to center.

1629
02:03:26,000 --> 02:03:28,000
Any further discussion.

1630
02:03:28,000 --> 02:03:30,000
B. and none or district 1.

1631
02:03:30,000 --> 02:03:32,000
2.

1632
02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:33,000
3.

1633
02:03:33,000 --> 02:03:34,000
4.

1634
02:03:34,000 --> 02:03:35,000
5.

1635
02:03:35,000 --> 02:03:36,000
Motion carries five.

1636
02:03:36,000 --> 02:03:37,000
Europe.

1637
02:03:37,000 --> 02:03:44,560
5th motion to send previous motion in 514 made during the September 3, 2019 median proving

1638
02:03:44,560 --> 02:03:49,000
4 Chevy pursuit dihose due to availability, and this kind of goes along with number 6 as

1639
02:03:49,000 --> 02:03:51,000
well I can explain the whole.

1640
02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:53,000
So they're not available anymore.

1641
02:03:53,000 --> 02:03:59,760
The emotion of the second, most of my district 5, it's like my district 2, then we try

1642
02:03:59,760 --> 02:04:02,000
to budget that last year.

1643
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:05,000
It was, it was budgeted.

1644
02:04:05,000 --> 02:04:07,160
What happened is we got a call from Chevy.

1645
02:04:07,160 --> 02:04:10,320
We were on the last production day, and they said go ahead, we're not going to make

1646
02:04:10,320 --> 02:04:11,320
them.

1647
02:04:11,320 --> 02:04:12,320
So that's why I'm going to do the next.

1648
02:04:12,320 --> 02:04:13,320
I'll see you at the end of the day.

1649
02:04:13,320 --> 02:04:16,720
It's my first district last fiscal year, and so we will need to authorize a budget

1650
02:04:16,720 --> 02:04:17,720
and you do not.

1651
02:04:17,720 --> 02:04:18,720
It's there.

1652
02:04:18,720 --> 02:04:19,720
Okay.

1653
02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:22,000
I did it last year for the purchase order, but it was something we budgeted.

1654
02:04:22,000 --> 02:04:23,000
Okay.

1655
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:24,000
Okay.

1656
02:04:24,000 --> 02:04:25,000
Well, then scratch that.

1657
02:04:25,000 --> 02:04:27,000
No, we got a motion to the second.

1658
02:04:27,000 --> 02:04:29,000
Any further discussion?

1659
02:04:29,000 --> 02:04:30,000
VN-9.

1660
02:04:30,000 --> 02:04:36,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 motion carries 5, 0.

1661
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:41,000
6 motion, number 6 motion to approve and the advertisement for a reverse option to purchase

1662
02:04:41,000 --> 02:04:46,000
4, 2020, 2020 Chevy Tahoe police package vehicles.

1663
02:04:46,000 --> 02:04:49,000
Any motion to the second?

1664
02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:50,000
Motion by district 4.

1665
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:51,000
Second.

1666
02:04:51,000 --> 02:04:53,000
Second by district 3.

1667
02:04:53,000 --> 02:04:55,000
Any further discussion?

1668
02:04:55,000 --> 02:05:01,000
VN-9, District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 motion carries 5, 0.

1669
02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:02,000
Thank you.

1670
02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:03,000
Thank you.

1671
02:05:03,000 --> 02:05:04,000
Thank you, Jeremy.

1672
02:05:04,000 --> 02:05:05,000
Good morning.

1673
02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:07,000
Good morning.

1674
02:05:07,000 --> 02:05:08,000
Still.

1675
02:05:08,000 --> 02:05:16,000
One quick thing, just ask for a motion to approve, spread on the minutes, and authorize Board President

1676
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:20,000
and Chancellor Clark to sign the increased decrease in assessments for the last month.

1677
02:05:20,000 --> 02:05:21,000
All right.

1678
02:05:22,000 --> 02:05:25,000
Second by district 5.

1679
02:05:25,000 --> 02:05:27,000
Any further discussion?

1680
02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:28,000
VN-9.

1681
02:05:28,000 --> 02:05:32,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 motion carries 5, 0.

1682
02:05:32,000 --> 02:05:36,000
And that's all I have unless the Board has something for me.

1683
02:05:36,000 --> 02:05:37,000
Thank you.

1684
02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:38,000
Appreciate it.

1685
02:05:38,000 --> 02:05:39,000
Next up.

1686
02:05:39,000 --> 02:05:40,000
We tell.

1687
02:05:40,000 --> 02:05:43,000
Our new circuit clerk.

1688
02:05:43,000 --> 02:05:44,000
Ms. Keke.

1689
02:05:44,000 --> 02:05:45,000
Come on.

1690
02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:49,000
You're inaugural on graduations.

1691
02:05:49,000 --> 02:06:04,000
The first motion I have is to approve the compensation list for the circuit clerk's office.

1692
02:06:04,000 --> 02:06:07,000
Let's get to this one.

1693
02:06:07,000 --> 02:06:08,000
Let's get to this one.

1694
02:06:08,000 --> 02:06:10,000
Let's get to this one.

1695
02:06:10,000 --> 02:06:11,000
Yeah, can you mind doing it?

1696
02:06:11,000 --> 02:06:12,000
I'm sorry.

1697
02:06:12,000 --> 02:06:13,000
That's okay.

1698
02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:17,000
First motion I have is to approve the compensation list for the circuit clerk's office.

1699
02:06:18,000 --> 02:06:21,000
Second motion by district 5.

1700
02:06:21,000 --> 02:06:23,000
Second motion by district 1.

1701
02:06:23,000 --> 02:06:25,000
Are these all the same?

1702
02:06:25,000 --> 02:06:27,000
That's what it is.

1703
02:06:27,000 --> 02:06:30,000
It's within the budget actually.

1704
02:06:30,000 --> 02:06:35,000
There's a savings of a dollar 20 per hour for the county.

1705
02:06:35,000 --> 02:06:39,000
And a savings on a fee account of 424 per hour.

1706
02:06:39,000 --> 02:06:44,000
Overall, what we're doing is changing two employees if you know my country.

1707
02:06:45,000 --> 02:06:49,000
We're talking about adjusting Jolene 4, who was basically stepping up and taking

1708
02:06:49,000 --> 02:06:50,000
Kendra's place.

1709
02:06:50,000 --> 02:06:54,000
And then we have an addition for Jason Shayu.

1710
02:06:54,000 --> 02:07:01,000
And this also creates the new position at $11 an hour for the county in zero under the

1711
02:07:01,000 --> 02:07:02,000
fee account.

1712
02:07:02,000 --> 02:07:05,000
But overall, it's a savings for the county and for the fee account.

1713
02:07:05,000 --> 02:07:06,000
$5.

1714
02:07:06,000 --> 02:07:07,000
Almost $5.

1715
02:07:07,000 --> 02:07:08,000
$5.

1716
02:07:08,000 --> 02:07:09,000
And $44.

1717
02:07:09,000 --> 02:07:12,000
That's an hour for the entire part of it.

1718
02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:16,000
But that's the two changes in effect of Jolene and Jason.

1719
02:07:16,000 --> 02:07:17,000
Yes.

1720
02:07:17,000 --> 02:07:18,000
I've got to go to the second.

1721
02:07:18,000 --> 02:07:21,000
Any further discussion?

1722
02:07:21,000 --> 02:07:22,000
Be in none.

1723
02:07:22,000 --> 02:07:25,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

1724
02:07:25,000 --> 02:07:26,000
Motion carries 5.

1725
02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:27,000
0.

1726
02:07:27,000 --> 02:07:28,000
Okay.

1727
02:07:28,000 --> 02:07:31,000
And the second motion I have is to approve the hiring of Sierra

1728
02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:35,000
Therio is deputy clerk at the rate of $11 an hour.

1729
02:07:35,000 --> 02:07:39,000
Effective upon completion of drug and physical testing.

1730
02:07:40,000 --> 02:07:41,000
Any motion.

1731
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:42,000
Second.

1732
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:43,000
Motion.

1733
02:07:43,000 --> 02:07:44,000
Motion.

1734
02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:45,000
District 5.

1735
02:07:45,000 --> 02:07:46,000
Second.

1736
02:07:46,000 --> 02:07:47,000
District 2.

1737
02:07:47,000 --> 02:07:49,000
Any further discussion?

1738
02:07:49,000 --> 02:07:50,000
Be in none.

1739
02:07:50,000 --> 02:07:53,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

1740
02:07:53,000 --> 02:07:54,000
Motion carries 5.

1741
02:07:54,000 --> 02:07:55,000
0.

1742
02:07:55,000 --> 02:07:56,000
Thank you.

1743
02:07:56,000 --> 02:07:57,000
Have a good day.

1744
02:07:57,000 --> 02:07:59,000
Thank you.

1745
02:07:59,000 --> 02:08:00,000
All right.

1746
02:08:00,000 --> 02:08:01,000
Next up.

1747
02:08:01,000 --> 02:08:02,000
Mr. Tim Keller.

1748
02:08:02,000 --> 02:08:03,000
Thank you.

1749
02:08:03,000 --> 02:08:05,000
Good morning.

1750
02:08:05,000 --> 02:08:09,000
I'll be requesting a motion spread on the managed

1751
02:08:09,000 --> 02:08:11,000
Chantric Roads December 2019.

1752
02:08:11,000 --> 02:08:12,000
Remember them.

1753
02:08:12,000 --> 02:08:14,000
So much check for $10,414.

1754
02:08:14,000 --> 02:08:17,000
27 cents to the general fund.

1755
02:08:17,000 --> 02:08:19,000
It's spread on the minutes.

1756
02:08:19,000 --> 02:08:20,000
So much report.

1757
02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:21,000
Motion.

1758
02:08:21,000 --> 02:08:22,000
District 2.

1759
02:08:22,000 --> 02:08:23,000
Second.

1760
02:08:23,000 --> 02:08:24,000
Second.

1761
02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:25,000
District 1.

1762
02:08:25,000 --> 02:08:28,000
Any further discussion?

1763
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:29,000
Be in none.

1764
02:08:29,000 --> 02:08:32,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

1765
02:08:32,000 --> 02:08:33,000
Motion carries 5.

1766
02:08:33,000 --> 02:08:34,000
0.

1767
02:08:34,000 --> 02:08:35,000
And that's all for me.

1768
02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:36,000
Thank you.

1769
02:08:36,000 --> 02:08:37,000
Thank you, sir.

1770
02:08:37,000 --> 02:08:38,000
Next up.

1771
02:08:38,000 --> 02:08:40,000
We have Mr. Clemens.

1772
02:08:40,000 --> 02:08:41,000
Compton.

1773
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:43,000
The county engineer.

1774
02:08:43,000 --> 02:08:45,000
Good morning.

1775
02:08:45,000 --> 02:08:49,000
The only item I've got is just a brief discussion on the

1776
02:08:49,000 --> 02:08:51,000
Kindleel Road Bridge.

1777
02:08:51,000 --> 02:08:54,000
And I talked with a couple of young and big as well.

1778
02:08:54,000 --> 02:08:56,000
We had a.

1779
02:08:56,000 --> 02:09:00,000
Went down the road of trying to fit in basically a new bridge while

1780
02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:02,000
leaving the old one in service.

1781
02:09:02,000 --> 02:09:05,000
Which is going to require some right away purchase.

1782
02:09:05,000 --> 02:09:07,000
And when we.

1783
02:09:07,000 --> 02:09:10,000
We try to fit this thing in to keep it.

1784
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:13,000
Away from people's property structures.

1785
02:09:13,000 --> 02:09:14,000
And it just.

1786
02:09:14,000 --> 02:09:16,000
Closes are the furthest we could get.

1787
02:09:16,000 --> 02:09:20,000
The edge of the road is going to be like 50 or 60 feet from their houses.

1788
02:09:20,000 --> 02:09:22,000
So it just, you know, in good conscience.

1789
02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:24,000
I don't think that would be a.

1790
02:09:24,000 --> 02:09:25,000
A wise thing.

1791
02:09:25,000 --> 02:09:28,000
So we went back kind of full circle to.

1792
02:09:28,000 --> 02:09:31,000
We still know we really don't want to shut that bridge now.

1793
02:09:31,000 --> 02:09:35,000
So it'd be more like building a bypass bridge like we did with.

1794
02:09:35,000 --> 02:09:36,000
Here in Bay.

1795
02:09:36,000 --> 02:09:38,000
We've got it where we could.

1796
02:09:38,000 --> 02:09:42,000
Keep it with about a 35 mile hour speed limit once it gets constructed.

1797
02:09:42,000 --> 02:09:44,000
And then tear it all out.

1798
02:09:44,000 --> 02:09:47,000
Fill the new in place where it sits now and then.

1799
02:09:47,000 --> 02:09:48,000
You know, once it's open.

1800
02:09:48,000 --> 02:09:50,000
Get rid of the temporary structure.

1801
02:09:50,000 --> 02:09:54,000
So it'll be still some minor inconvenience for those property owners.

1802
02:09:54,000 --> 02:09:57,000
But not near as intrusive as.

1803
02:09:57,000 --> 02:09:58,000
As the other.

1804
02:09:58,000 --> 02:10:02,000
So it's going to be an edge of can it is something that we can try to plan on.

1805
02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:04,000
I know it's hard, but try to plan.

1806
02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:06,000
While school is out for the summer.

1807
02:10:06,000 --> 02:10:08,000
There's as much as we can.

1808
02:10:08,000 --> 02:10:11,000
I mean, you're talking about probably a year project.

1809
02:10:11,000 --> 02:10:13,000
You know, so it.

1810
02:10:13,000 --> 02:10:14,000
We will fit it.

1811
02:10:14,000 --> 02:10:17,000
With summer and the middle of it, best we can to save that time.

1812
02:10:17,000 --> 02:10:20,000
But they'll never lose access of crossing it.

1813
02:10:20,000 --> 02:10:22,000
And whenever it shouldn't have shut it down.

1814
02:10:22,000 --> 02:10:27,000
So it's going to be around the same.

1815
02:10:27,000 --> 02:10:28,000
Maybe a little bit cheaper.

1816
02:10:28,000 --> 02:10:31,000
Yeah, then because the other involved a lot of road construction.

1817
02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:33,000
Because you know, if we were moving it over.

1818
02:10:33,000 --> 02:10:35,000
That was going to change that entire curve.

1819
02:10:35,000 --> 02:10:41,000
And it was going to be, you know, several hundred or like a thousand feet of new road construction to tie into it.

1820
02:10:41,000 --> 02:10:44,000
So this way it'll just be new approaches with a new bridge.

1821
02:10:44,000 --> 02:10:47,000
And the temporary bridge structure.

1822
02:10:47,000 --> 02:10:49,000
You know, it's kind of.

1823
02:10:49,000 --> 02:10:50,000
It's a cost.

1824
02:10:50,000 --> 02:10:51,000
It's just to be a resort.

1825
02:10:51,000 --> 02:10:53,000
You know, we're going to really anything for it.

1826
02:10:53,000 --> 02:10:56,000
Other than the convenience and not have to close the roads.

1827
02:10:56,000 --> 02:10:58,000
So don't really need board action today.

1828
02:10:58,000 --> 02:10:59,000
We'll modify the program.

1829
02:10:59,000 --> 02:11:01,000
You know, these funds are not available yet.

1830
02:11:01,000 --> 02:11:06,000
Until they approve the next four year cycle of state aid funds.

1831
02:11:06,000 --> 02:11:08,000
Which should happen this month or next.

1832
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:10,000
You know, we won't actually have the money to do it.

1833
02:11:10,000 --> 02:11:13,000
But as soon as that happens, the bridge is not changing.

1834
02:11:13,000 --> 02:11:14,000
We've got the bridge design.

1835
02:11:14,000 --> 02:11:15,000
We have to change the approach.

1836
02:11:15,000 --> 02:11:17,000
It's not changing the approach is not to get a modified program.

1837
02:11:17,000 --> 02:11:19,000
But we'll.

1838
02:11:19,000 --> 02:11:22,000
Time all that so that as soon as that money becomes available.

1839
02:11:22,000 --> 02:11:27,000
We can, you know, getting those last stages and getting that approved for.

1840
02:11:27,000 --> 02:11:30,000
To be as.

1841
02:11:30,000 --> 02:11:35,000
Now, we'll put in some safety improvements as part of the project.

1842
02:11:35,000 --> 02:11:39,000
Like some raise pavement markers and we may even be able to do some of the curve.

1843
02:11:39,000 --> 02:11:43,000
Indicators like that when in a safety projects it really light it up at night time.

1844
02:11:43,000 --> 02:11:49,000
But that the road will pretty much stay the same as what it is as far as alignment and in the curve coming into.

1845
02:11:49,000 --> 02:11:53,000
Do you put that temporary bridge north of south?

1846
02:11:53,000 --> 02:11:55,000
Yeah, we go to the south side.

1847
02:11:55,000 --> 02:11:57,000
Yeah.

1848
02:11:57,000 --> 02:11:58,000
Okay.

1849
02:11:58,000 --> 02:12:00,000
So about a year time on.

1850
02:12:00,000 --> 02:12:01,000
Yeah, once it gets started.

1851
02:12:01,000 --> 02:12:04,000
Now, that as from the point construction starts.

1852
02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:06,000
Yeah.

1853
02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:08,000
You know, they're right about the back of down here.

1854
02:12:08,000 --> 02:12:09,000
And that's there.

1855
02:12:09,000 --> 02:12:10,000
That's the portal.

1856
02:12:10,000 --> 02:12:11,000
Yeah.

1857
02:12:11,000 --> 02:12:12,000
And that's what was discussed.

1858
02:12:12,000 --> 02:12:16,000
You know, for the last couple of years was how to get the thing done without having to close it.

1859
02:12:16,000 --> 02:12:18,000
Because the detail routes not short.

1860
02:12:18,000 --> 02:12:21,000
You know, there's no good way around.

1861
02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:24,000
We did what we did with the capital off of bridge.

1862
02:12:24,000 --> 02:12:26,000
You know, they got that thing turned around.

1863
02:12:26,000 --> 02:12:27,000
And what?

1864
02:12:27,000 --> 02:12:29,000
21 days, 23 days?

1865
02:12:29,000 --> 02:12:30,000
Yeah.

1866
02:12:30,000 --> 02:12:31,000
A lot smaller bridge.

1867
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:32,000
Yeah.

1868
02:12:32,000 --> 02:12:33,000
Yeah.

1869
02:12:35,000 --> 02:12:36,000
I don't know.

1870
02:12:36,000 --> 02:12:37,000
I don't know.

1871
02:12:38,000 --> 02:12:39,000
Yeah.

1872
02:12:39,000 --> 02:12:40,000
Time is to wear.

1873
02:12:40,000 --> 02:12:41,000
There's a lot of bridges.

1874
02:12:41,000 --> 02:12:45,000
It's close to completion as opposed to just get started during the beginning of that.

1875
02:12:45,000 --> 02:12:46,000
That's very things like that.

1876
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:47,000
Yeah.

1877
02:12:47,000 --> 02:12:48,000
Yeah.

1878
02:12:48,000 --> 02:12:49,000
So yeah.

1879
02:12:49,000 --> 02:12:52,000
Some of it's at mercy if, you know, that the whole state A process.

1880
02:12:52,000 --> 02:12:53,000
But.

1881
02:12:53,000 --> 02:12:55,000
What's that?

1882
02:12:55,000 --> 02:12:56,000
Yeah.

1883
02:12:56,000 --> 02:12:57,000
This is the state.

1884
02:12:57,000 --> 02:12:58,000
Yeah.

1885
02:12:58,000 --> 02:13:01,000
It'll all be part of the same path.

1886
02:13:01,000 --> 02:13:02,000
Yeah.

1887
02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:03,000
I mean, I guess we'll get rid of that bridge.

1888
02:13:03,000 --> 02:13:04,000
They're going to have to move that as well.

1889
02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:05,000
Yeah.

1890
02:13:05,000 --> 02:13:06,000
I mean.

1891
02:13:06,000 --> 02:13:07,000
I guess we'll get rid of that bridge.

1892
02:13:07,000 --> 02:13:08,000
They're going to have to move that way.

1893
02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:09,000
Either way.

1894
02:13:09,000 --> 02:13:10,000
Either way.

1895
02:13:10,000 --> 02:13:11,000
They've got to relocate.

1896
02:13:11,000 --> 02:13:13,000
This can't go back on the bridge.

1897
02:13:13,000 --> 02:13:15,000
I guess they've been made aware of that.

1898
02:13:15,000 --> 02:13:16,000
Oh, yeah.

1899
02:13:16,000 --> 02:13:17,000
Yeah.

1900
02:13:17,000 --> 02:13:19,000
And actually, some of the adjustments of order.

1901
02:13:19,000 --> 02:13:20,000
They thought.

1902
02:13:20,000 --> 02:13:21,000
Coast.

1903
02:13:21,000 --> 02:13:22,000
Yeah.

1904
02:13:22,000 --> 02:13:23,000
Yeah.

1905
02:13:23,000 --> 02:13:24,000
Yeah.

1906
02:13:24,000 --> 02:13:25,000
Yeah.

1907
02:13:25,000 --> 02:13:26,000
Yeah.

1908
02:13:26,000 --> 02:13:27,000
Yeah.

1909
02:13:27,000 --> 02:13:28,000
Yeah.

1910
02:13:28,000 --> 02:13:29,000
Yeah.

1911
02:13:29,000 --> 02:13:30,000
Yeah.

1912
02:13:30,000 --> 02:13:31,000
That's right.

1913
02:13:31,000 --> 02:13:32,000
Yeah.

1914
02:13:32,000 --> 02:13:33,000
With.

1915
02:13:33,000 --> 02:13:34,000
With it without a permit.

1916
02:13:34,000 --> 02:13:36,000
They moved there.

1917
02:13:36,000 --> 02:13:37,000
Yeah.

1918
02:13:37,000 --> 02:13:38,000
But.

1919
02:13:38,000 --> 02:13:41,000
It's around the same.

1920
02:13:41,000 --> 02:13:43,000
It's just like just over a million dollars.

1921
02:13:43,000 --> 02:13:45,000
And he's like 1.2 is what.

1922
02:13:45,000 --> 02:13:47,000
I would just that part of it.

1923
02:13:47,000 --> 02:13:48,000
Yeah.

1924
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:49,000
Yeah.

1925
02:13:49,000 --> 02:13:50,000
But.

1926
02:13:50,000 --> 02:13:51,000
You see that.

1927
02:13:51,000 --> 02:13:54,000
Oh, Bob likes property to try to.

1928
02:13:54,000 --> 02:13:56,000
And stack it right on top of somebody's house.

1929
02:13:56,000 --> 02:13:57,000
Yeah.

1930
02:13:57,000 --> 02:13:58,000
On either side.

1931
02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:00,000
So it's at the north side, too, and it gets.

1932
02:14:00,000 --> 02:14:01,000
You know it's.

1933
02:14:01,000 --> 02:14:03,000
Fifty feet from the guy's driveway.

1934
02:14:03,000 --> 02:14:04,000
So.

1935
02:14:04,000 --> 02:14:05,000
If he had anything.

1936
02:14:05,000 --> 02:14:06,000
You do this bridge.

1937
02:14:06,000 --> 02:14:09,000
Would it have any lines going through there.

1938
02:14:09,000 --> 02:14:10,000
To loud.

1939
02:14:10,000 --> 02:14:13,000
They heard up rocky here.

1940
02:14:13,000 --> 02:14:14,000
But they did.

1941
02:14:14,000 --> 02:14:15,000
But that's what they've already relocated there.

1942
02:14:15,000 --> 02:14:16,000
Yeah.

1943
02:14:16,000 --> 02:14:18,000
They.

1944
02:14:18,000 --> 02:14:21,000
Based on what we're going to do though not.

1945
02:14:21,000 --> 02:14:22,000
The previous plans.

1946
02:14:22,000 --> 02:14:23,000
It's.

1947
02:14:23,000 --> 02:14:24,000
It's.

1948
02:14:24,000 --> 02:14:25,000
It's.

1949
02:14:25,000 --> 02:14:26,000
It's.

1950
02:14:26,000 --> 02:14:27,000
It's.

1951
02:14:27,000 --> 02:14:29,000
in under-efficient areas.

1952
02:14:29,000 --> 02:14:30,000
Yes, but it is.

1953
02:14:30,000 --> 02:14:32,000
If you would just have to be diligent in the process of it, you know.

1954
02:14:32,000 --> 02:14:35,000
You have to give them a help start for their slow.

1955
02:14:35,000 --> 02:14:37,000
Yeah, very slow.

1956
02:14:37,000 --> 02:14:38,000
Okay.

1957
02:14:38,000 --> 02:14:42,000
So yeah, I mean, less, you know, there's a objection to it.

1958
02:14:42,000 --> 02:14:46,000
That's, well, finish making it end around on it and then come back with the modified program.

1959
02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:47,000
So.

1960
02:14:47,000 --> 02:14:48,000
And we need to think that finding will be made available.

1961
02:14:48,000 --> 02:14:49,000
Yeah.

1962
02:14:49,000 --> 02:14:50,000
Should be this month or next,

1963
02:14:50,000 --> 02:14:52,000
I should approve that the next four year cycle.

1964
02:14:52,000 --> 02:14:54,000
So, and even though, you know,

1965
02:14:54,000 --> 02:14:56,000
it got to think it gets distributed per year,

1966
02:14:56,000 --> 02:14:59,000
it basically gets advanced credits for it.

1967
02:14:59,000 --> 02:15:00,000
So, move ahead.

1968
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:02,000
Let me have a bit of your projects.

1969
02:15:02,000 --> 02:15:24,000
It's been within the last two or three months. We've got almost a year before we'd come up for,

1970
02:15:24,000 --> 02:15:26,000
because I'm expecting those every year.

1971
02:15:26,000 --> 02:15:32,000
Last week from the DOT started to write tickets on that road because of that bridge overweight trucks.

1972
02:15:32,000 --> 02:15:36,000
Yeah, it's posted, it's a real posting.

1973
02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:40,000
I mean, it needs to be, you know, it here too, because...

1974
02:15:40,000 --> 02:15:44,000
Okay, that's all I had today, and what shall I have from now?

1975
02:15:44,000 --> 02:15:47,000
Thank you.

1976
02:15:47,000 --> 02:15:52,000
I will Mr. Greg Day, supposedly closed, closed season in the case yesterday.

1977
02:15:52,000 --> 02:15:53,000
Thank you.

1978
02:15:53,000 --> 02:15:55,000
So you're following me?

1979
02:15:55,000 --> 02:15:56,000
I'm following you.

1980
02:15:56,000 --> 02:15:57,000
I'm promised an idea.

1981
02:15:57,000 --> 02:15:59,000
Kind of by the phone.

1982
02:15:59,000 --> 02:16:01,000
I believe you.

1983
02:16:01,000 --> 02:16:03,000
Hey, we got the road manager, Mr. Vic.

1984
02:16:03,000 --> 02:16:05,000
Johnson up next.

1985
02:16:11,000 --> 02:16:15,000
First item on my agenda is, this was table to wildback,

1986
02:16:15,000 --> 02:16:17,000
and I'm just trying to bring it back up.

1987
02:16:17,000 --> 02:16:19,000
Motion to approve this in toss.

1988
02:16:19,000 --> 02:16:25,000
It says cover-alls, but it's actually uniforms for the road crew to wear when working with tar.

1989
02:16:25,000 --> 02:16:28,000
This is for my pot-hole patch increase.

1990
02:16:28,000 --> 02:16:29,000
Mm, second.

1991
02:16:29,000 --> 02:16:31,000
How's it about district 2?

1992
02:16:31,000 --> 02:16:33,000
It's like my district 3?

1993
02:16:33,000 --> 02:16:34,000
Yes.

1994
02:16:34,000 --> 02:16:36,000
Any further discussion?

1997
02:16:43,000 --> 02:16:47,000
On if the board is okay, I'll just group all these, of course,

1998
02:16:47,000 --> 02:16:49,000
and held together and vote at once.

1999
02:16:49,000 --> 02:16:51,000

02:17:05,000 --> 02:17:09,000

02:17:09,000 --> 02:17:13,000
And in only a amendment, motion to transfer nascent whales

2007
02:17:13,000 --> 02:17:16,000

2019
02:17:46,000 --> 02:17:48,000
Motion carries 5-0.

Thank you all very much.

2021
02:17:49,000 --> 02:17:53,000
And the last item I have is a discussion item request for a

2022
02:17:53,000 --> 02:17:57,000
street light in a dangerous curve on a dominoid road near

2023
02:17:57,000 --> 02:17:59,000
395 supervisor.

2024
02:17:59,000 --> 02:18:02,000
But we had called me about this one.

2025
02:18:02,000 --> 02:18:06,000
It is a situation that has been a quite few accidents in this curve.

2026
02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:10,000
Not sure that the street light would help the speeds that they're

2027
02:18:10,000 --> 02:18:11,000
going.

2028
02:18:11,000 --> 02:18:12,000
But it's not a bad idea.

2029
02:18:12,000 --> 02:18:13,000
It's pretty bad.

2030
02:18:13,000 --> 02:18:14,000
It's pretty bad.

2031
02:18:14,000 --> 02:18:25,000
If the board considers just have to make a finding of fact that this is a light that would serve

2032
02:18:25,000 --> 02:18:30,000
the general public and not an independent property owner and represents protection

2033
02:18:30,000 --> 02:18:32,000
of a safety hazard.

2034
02:18:32,000 --> 02:18:33,000
Ladies, correct.

2035
02:18:33,000 --> 02:18:35,000

I want to show how something for me.

2045
02:18:54,000 --> 02:18:55,000
Thank you.

2046
02:18:55,000 --> 02:18:57,000

2052
02:19:08,000 --> 02:19:13,000
This first motion is the same group of projects I explained at the last meeting about how

2053
02:19:13,000 --> 02:19:15,000
they come out of a separate bank account.

2054
02:19:15,000 --> 02:19:16,000

2145
02:23:01,000 --> 02:23:03,000
Motion carries 5-0.

2146
02:23:03,000 --> 02:23:06,000
Motion to ratify and spread on the minutes to U.S.

2147
02:23:06,000 --> 02:23:07,000

2152
02:23:21,000 --> 02:23:23,000
The motion is second.

2153
02:23:23,000 --> 02:23:24,000
Motion by district 1.

2154
02:23:24,000 --> 02:23:25,000
Second.

2155
02:23:25,000 --> 02:23:26,000
Second.

2156
02:23:26,000 --> 02:23:27,000
Second.

2157

02:23:32,000 --> 02:23:34,000
District 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

2161
02:23:34,000 --> 02:23:37,000
Motion carries 5-0.

2162
02:23:37,000 --> 02:23:38,000
Next item's motion.

2163
02:23:38,000 --> 02:23:48,000
Approved the request from the Mississippi Department of Health to install a generated transfer switch to the health and human services building.

2164
02:23:48,000 --> 02:23:52,000
I talked a little bit about it and we don't see a problem.

2165
02:23:52,000 --> 02:23:58,000
It's that no cost to the county and it'll put a minute position that in the event of a power outage.

2166
02:23:58,000 --> 02:23:59,000
Who's finding it?

2167
02:23:59,000 --> 02:24:00,000
Who's paying for that?

2168
02:24:00,000 --> 02:24:01,000
They are.

2169
02:24:01,000 --> 02:24:02,000
The state is.

2170
02:24:02,000 --> 02:24:03,000
Yes.

2171
02:24:03,000 --> 02:24:04,000
Those things are cheap.

2172
02:24:04,000 --> 02:24:06,000
Motion by district 2.

2173
02:24:06,000 --> 02:24:07,000
Second by district 1.

2174
02:24:07,000 --> 02:24:08,000
Second by district 1.

2175
02:24:08,000 --> 02:24:09,000
Motion by district 2.

02:24:09,000 --> 02:24:11,000

Second by district 1.

2193
02:24:28,000 --> 02:24:29,000
Second by district 1.

2194
02:24:29,000 --> 02:24:30,000
Second by district 1.

2195
02:24:30,000 --> 02:24:31,000
Second by district 1.

2196
02:24:31,000 --> 02:24:32,000
Second by district 1.

2197
02:24:32,000 --> 02:24:33,000
Second by district 1.

2198
02:24:33,000 --> 02:24:34,000
Second by district 1.

2199
02:24:34,000 --> 02:24:35,000
Second by district 1.

2200
02:24:35,000 --> 02:24:36,000
Second by district 1.

2201
02:24:36,000 --> 02:24:37,000
Second by district 1.

2202
02:24:37,000 --> 02:24:38,000
Second by district 1.

2203
02:24:38,000 --> 02:24:39,000
Second by district 1.

2204
02:24:39,000 --> 02:24:40,000
Second by district 1.

2205
02:24:40,000 --> 02:24:41,000
Second by district 1.

2206
02:24:41,000 --> 02:24:42,000
Second by district 1.

2207
02:24:42,000 --> 02:24:43,000
Second by district 1.

2208
02:24:43,000 --> 02:24:44,000
Second by district 1.

2209
02:24:44,000 --> 02:24:46,000
Second by district 1.

2210
02:24:46,000 --> 02:24:57,240
Next item is request to approve the county administrative to act as the county's emergencies

2211
02:24:57,240 --> 02:25:09,800
design for the purpose of declaring local emergencies for purposes of section 3171 and also 3173.

2212
02:25:09,800 --> 02:25:13,880
This deal strictly with the emergency purchases and repairs.

2213
02:25:13,880 --> 02:25:19,720
Something to do with the EMA requirements, their position or anything else.

2214
02:25:19,720 --> 02:25:25,360
The Board still declares emergencies for disaster, or based on a bill that was passed 2 sessions

2215
02:25:25,360 --> 02:25:26,360
ago.

2216
02:25:26,360 --> 02:25:31,400
The Board president can declare and report back to the Board, but that's this is strictly

2217
02:25:31,400 --> 02:25:34,200
dealing with emergencies for instance.

2218
02:25:34,200 --> 02:25:39,320
If a road case in and we need a road without having to go through the normal to be able to

2219
02:25:39,320 --> 02:25:40,320
have emergency in designation.

2220
02:25:40,320 --> 02:25:41,320
Yes.

2221
02:25:41,320 --> 02:25:43,920
Kind of like we did with the tree at the cemetery.

2222
02:25:43,920 --> 02:25:48,240
The emergency situation was declared and we removed the tree report back at the next

2223
02:25:48,240 --> 02:25:49,240
year.

2224
02:25:49,240 --> 02:25:51,120
Should it be the emergency, the emergency, the emergency, the emergency, the emergency, I mean,

2225
02:25:51,120 --> 02:25:52,120
would that be?

2226
02:25:52,120 --> 02:25:53,120
Yes.

2227
02:25:53,120 --> 02:26:05,880
Or it's the statute, roughly 3171, 1, 2, 3171, 1, 2, 3171, 2, 3171, and then section 31, 313 talks about the government authorities,

2228
02:26:05,880 --> 02:26:11,280
emergency purchase procedures and that talks about acting through its designation.

2229
02:26:11,280 --> 02:26:13,720
So we can refer both it in the minutes.

2230
02:26:13,720 --> 02:26:19,700
The 317161, 1, if one first is the definition?

2231
02:26:19,700 --> 02:26:23,580
In 311713, K.

2232
02:26:23,580 --> 02:26:25,960
The first is the definition of the emergency.

2233
02:26:25,960 --> 02:26:26,960
Emergency.

2234
02:26:26,960 --> 02:26:31,800
The second is the exceptions to the public bidding statute that's has upon the fine name.

2235
02:26:31,800 --> 02:26:34,000
They spread out on the minutes and they ratify this.

2236
02:26:34,000 --> 02:26:36,000
I've got a motion my district too.

2237
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:37,000
I can't.

2238
02:26:37,000 --> 02:26:39,000
Second my district three.

2239
02:26:39,000 --> 02:26:41,000
Any further discussion?

2240
02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:12,400
Any issue there is, because we have not following me in any qualified immunity, the board has

2241
02:27:12,400 --> 02:27:18,600
to make a finding that it's actually responsible for that, instead of, this is a statute

2242
02:27:18,600 --> 02:27:23,720
that generally relates to emergency purchases for county equipment, not for the necessity

2243
02:27:23,720 --> 02:27:27,960
to bring in that before the board, because we have immunity, and we have to basically, in

2244
02:27:27,960 --> 02:27:34,960
our waiver of our immunity, and say we're actually viable for that time.

2245
02:27:34,960 --> 02:27:40,960
Is there any such way to find a way to do with the next time?

2246
02:27:40,960 --> 02:27:43,960
That's a, that's a fine and it has to be made by the board.

2247
02:27:43,960 --> 02:27:44,960
I'm both.

2248
02:27:44,960 --> 02:27:45,960
Good deal.

2249
02:27:45,960 --> 02:27:46,960
Okay.

2250
02:27:46,960 --> 02:27:47,960
All right.

2251
02:27:47,960 --> 02:27:50,960
We've got a motion a second.

2252
02:27:50,960 --> 02:27:52,960
Any further discussion?

2253
02:27:52,960 --> 02:27:53,960
Be a none.

2254
02:27:53,960 --> 02:27:59,960
District one, two, three, four, and five motion carries five zero.

2255
02:27:59,960 --> 02:28:06,960
The next item is just hopefully to open a little discussion or communications with some of the

2256
02:28:06,960 --> 02:28:10,960
recreational leagues and the possibility of the cities.

2257
02:28:10,960 --> 02:28:17,960
My understanding that several of the ball leagues are talking about merging this year.

2258
02:28:17,960 --> 02:28:23,960
We've standard, knee case, maybe, or knee case, the kill.

2259
02:28:23,960 --> 02:28:27,960
One other one, kill Hencock Harrison.

2260
02:28:27,960 --> 02:28:36,960
They're all talking about merging this year and playing at the kill facility slash complex, complex,

2261
02:28:36,960 --> 02:28:37,960
sports complex.

2262
02:28:37,960 --> 02:28:44,960
And it was even mentioned about approaching the cities about doing a total county wide merger.

2263
02:28:44,960 --> 02:28:49,960
Still playing at two facilities at the bay and in the kill.

2264
02:28:49,960 --> 02:28:55,960
But the numbers apparently are dropping off big and even like to football leagues.

2265
02:28:55,960 --> 02:28:59,960
We have what two or three leagues now and we don't have participation.

2266
02:28:59,960 --> 02:29:00,960
Somebody gets upset.

2267
02:29:00,960 --> 02:29:03,960
They want to go create their own league now.

2268
02:29:03,960 --> 02:29:09,960
So if there's any way I mentioned it to Kevin, even if he gets to the point, we included money in the budget

2269
02:29:09,960 --> 02:29:12,960
for management at the complex.

2270
02:29:12,960 --> 02:29:20,960
Even if we up at some to deal with strictly a record director that can deal with all of the recreational programs,

2271
02:29:20,960 --> 02:29:24,960
including management at the complex.

2272
02:29:24,960 --> 02:29:31,960
But just to open the line of communications, if we can set up a little workshop and invite all of the players,

2273
02:29:31,960 --> 02:29:34,960
whether it's the leagues, footballs, baseballs?

2274
02:29:34,960 --> 02:29:36,960
Yeah, I don't think it would have.

2275
02:29:36,960 --> 02:29:40,960
I don't think that's going to happen this year just because it's time reasons.

2276
02:29:40,960 --> 02:29:45,960
But there is discussions ongoing with I don't know the county groups about that.

2277
02:29:45,960 --> 02:29:54,960
So I would suggest having lived through soccer meetings and football meetings seven or eight years ago.

2278
02:29:54,960 --> 02:29:59,960
I would tell them to get their minds wrapped around what they're.

2279
02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:07,000
And then we can kind of hold the work. I don't have 300 people in here.

2280
02:30:07,000 --> 02:30:13,000
Yeah. I guess the ones that I think they can hold the work, wants to merge.

2281
02:30:13,000 --> 02:30:19,000
And then the suggestion is if we're going to be merging some, let's look at the possibility of merging all.

2282
02:30:19,000 --> 02:30:25,000
You know, it gets to the point. Kevin's got to maintain, you know, football fields that had been used in how long.

2283
02:30:25,000 --> 02:30:36,000
And, you know, and stuff like that in other facilities. And we try to explain to everybody that, as long as we're having to maintain fields and facilities that aren't being used,

2284
02:30:36,000 --> 02:30:40,000
we can't provide a premier facility.

2285
02:30:40,000 --> 02:30:45,000
One facility that everybody could use and it would be a top notch.

2286
02:30:45,000 --> 02:30:53,000
We provide good fields and good services, but it's not necessarily the absolute best because we've got to maintain so many.

2287
02:30:53,000 --> 02:30:58,000
You know, it's gotten to the point where everybody wants one and nobody wants to drive.

2288
02:30:58,000 --> 02:31:06,000
And, you know, just trying to figure out what's best for the kids and how can we get more kids involved in it?

2289
02:31:06,000 --> 02:31:07,000
Yes.

2290
02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:12,000
Because we've lost it. Over the last years, part of it is because of the school situation.

2291
02:31:12,000 --> 02:31:19,000
Now the schools, at least baseball wise, they have the junior high program that eliminates most of your kids in the,

2292
02:31:19,000 --> 02:31:28,000
11 and 12 year old late group. And you know, no such thing as a 13 to 15, you know, 16, 18 because of high school ball.

2293
02:31:28,000 --> 02:31:34,000
You know, we're in a disadvantage because of our amenities that we lack there. Obviously, for some of these travel malls,

2294
02:31:34,000 --> 02:31:38,000
I don't know if it's a thing. You think it just pop off the interstate, it can outlacks it.

2295
02:31:38,000 --> 02:31:41,000
You know, the outfield's got one now and everybody's in a business for us.

2296
02:31:41,000 --> 02:31:46,000
We are in this pain. I'm not against, you know, somewhat more advantage or something we can do.

2297
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:53,000
There was a tour of the report that was put out by tourism said that the knee and, and I don't know,

2298
02:31:53,000 --> 02:31:59,000
Oh, there's got it somewhere. But the knee was for flatfield, like soccer and stuff like that.

2299
02:31:59,000 --> 02:32:06,000
But because of the cross, because there's so many baseball complexes before ours was even built.

2300
02:32:06,000 --> 02:32:07,000
This report was done.

2301
02:32:07,000 --> 02:32:13,000
Yeah. So anyway, now we've got a complex. We've got traffic out and I've got an exact, and we have one and I'm all about that.

2302
02:32:13,000 --> 02:32:18,000
Haven't haven't chosen to play currently still in the travel scene and, you know, we'll be playing school ball this year.

2303
02:32:18,000 --> 02:32:23,000
We still utilize the travel wall scene as well. So having that right there is a huge asset.

2304
02:32:23,000 --> 02:32:24,000
So it's a big figure.

2305
02:32:24,000 --> 02:32:28,000
You know, one of the times in the last two years have been running out of five.

2306
02:32:28,000 --> 02:32:33,000
They're never, and this is just my opinion. I don't think they're ever going to be money makers.

2307
02:32:33,000 --> 02:32:37,000
But we need to make it used. We can do, yes.

2308
02:32:37,000 --> 02:32:38,000
Yeah. I'm all about that.

2309
02:32:38,000 --> 02:32:44,000
One of the things that was suggested is that assuming that we were able to merge beliefs,

2310
02:32:44,000 --> 02:32:49,000
then the possibility of going after different tournaments like we used to do here.

2311
02:32:49,000 --> 02:32:52,000
You know, you're district tournaments of district, whatever it is.

2312
02:32:52,000 --> 02:32:55,000
State tournaments were all series like we had for the girls before.

2313
02:32:55,000 --> 02:32:59,000
And then start using the complex and at least people would see it.

2314
02:32:59,000 --> 02:33:05,000
They would see what we have to offer. And then maybe few years down the road it would always.

2315
02:33:05,000 --> 02:33:07,000
Oh, I understand.

2316
02:33:07,000 --> 02:33:14,000
It's basically rebuilding our sports programs, recreation programs from the ground of countywide.

2317
02:33:14,000 --> 02:33:17,000
Like I said, the base talking about going independent.

2318
02:33:17,000 --> 02:33:21,000
You know, in the past, they've had a couple, a couple of teams in each age group.

2319
02:33:21,000 --> 02:33:27,000
If anything, the girls had a travel to Long Beach last year because of a lack of participation.

2320
02:33:27,000 --> 02:33:31,000
Yeah, absolutely.

2321
02:33:31,000 --> 02:33:36,000
But just just to get something going to enhance our programs.

2322
02:33:36,000 --> 02:33:40,000
And Kevin, I work on it and bring information back because we get it.

2323
02:33:40,000 --> 02:33:42,000
Just on that too.

2324
02:33:42,000 --> 02:33:43,000
Oh, but both.

2325
02:33:43,000 --> 02:33:46,000
In.

2326
02:33:46,000 --> 02:33:48,000
Like.

2327
02:33:48,000 --> 02:33:51,000
Legislative priorities.

2328
02:33:51,000 --> 02:33:55,000
At the last cog meeting, Greg and I were there.

2329
02:33:55,000 --> 02:33:57,000
Everybody else bailed on us.

2330
02:33:57,000 --> 02:34:04,000
And basically what we did is we we provided them with a list of five projects.

2331
02:34:04,000 --> 02:34:07,000
Priorities that we could come up with at the time.

2332
02:34:07,000 --> 02:34:12,000
For the five, I believe, or carry over from the current fifth or the previous fiscal year.

2333
02:34:12,000 --> 02:34:14,000
One was a new one.

2334
02:34:14,000 --> 02:34:18,000
It's talking about implementation of the storm water study program.

2335
02:34:18,000 --> 02:34:20,000
That's already in the works.

2336
02:34:20,000 --> 02:34:21,000
We're finishing it where.

2337
02:34:21,000 --> 02:34:26,000
Uh, advertising now or will be soliciting proposals for the administration.

2338
02:34:26,000 --> 02:34:29,000
The other one is the multi-purpose arena.

2339
02:34:29,000 --> 02:34:32,000
Phase one is in the 1670 million dollar range.

2340
02:34:32,000 --> 02:34:36,000
Uh, we were anticipating some funding.

2341
02:34:36,000 --> 02:34:37,000
Last year.

2342
02:34:37,000 --> 02:34:39,000
August September it didn't come in.

2343
02:34:39,000 --> 02:34:45,000
Hopefully we'll be back in line to get some funding this year that we can keep that project off.

2344
02:34:45,000 --> 02:34:47,000
I'm a cloud park.

2345
02:34:47,000 --> 02:34:56,000
Uh, roughly $2 million with the new programs and enhancements that we're using the gomason monies for.

2346
02:34:56,000 --> 02:34:58,000
Uh, buck in the apart.

2347
02:34:58,000 --> 02:35:03,000
We were successful in getting $2 million that was funneled directly to buck in the apart.

2348
02:35:03,000 --> 02:35:06,000
Uh, to help with the improvements they're talking about there.

2349
02:35:06,000 --> 02:35:10,000
And then the last one that we came up with was Texas flat road.

2350
02:35:10,000 --> 02:35:14,000
I don't know if anybody spent a lot of time riding on that road lately.

2351
02:35:14,000 --> 02:35:19,000
In addition to the maintenance problems that we have now that we didn't have before.

2352
02:35:19,000 --> 02:35:22,000
And I don't think we anticipated it.

2353
02:35:22,000 --> 02:35:25,000
The traffic on that road is atrocious.

2354
02:35:25,000 --> 02:35:28,000
And not just vehicular traffic.

2355
02:35:28,000 --> 02:35:34,000
The, the dump trucks coming off a highway 11 right above the, uh, the test site.

2356
02:35:34,000 --> 02:35:39,000
I've been traveling that road quite a bit lately and it's, it's dangerous.

2357
02:35:39,000 --> 02:35:43,000
It's, it's a lot more traffic than what's anticipated.

2358
02:35:43,000 --> 02:35:48,000
That if there's any way I know that money has gone, but you remember a few years ago.

2359
02:35:48,000 --> 02:35:52,000
Um, there was monies for a bypass road in the kill.

2360
02:35:52,000 --> 02:35:55,000
That money was taken and put over in the out of the.

2361
02:35:55,000 --> 02:36:02,000
Uh, nothing else if we can remind him died in some of the other folks that we had the money at one point.

2362
02:36:02,000 --> 02:36:09,000
Uh, we need to money back because of the situation for evacuation route for safety.

2363
02:36:09,000 --> 02:36:12,000
That's the road and it's, and I have no clue how much we can do.

2364
02:36:12,000 --> 02:36:15,000
I met with, uh, the one engineer from M.D.

2365
02:36:15,000 --> 02:36:16,000
I'm about there.

2366
02:36:16,000 --> 02:36:17,000
So I get his name.

2367
02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:22,000
But anyway, and it's specifically asked about using Texas flat for a comfortable road.

2368
02:36:22,000 --> 02:36:25,000
And they said it couldn't, couldn't be at that time.

2369
02:36:25,000 --> 02:36:26,000
Yeah.

2370
02:36:26,000 --> 02:36:30,000
You know, so I guess the shoulders wasn't good enough.

2371
02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:31,000
Yeah.

2372
02:36:31,000 --> 02:36:33,000
Why don't I follow what the situation was.

2373
02:36:33,000 --> 02:36:35,000
And at that time is one of the best roads we had to carry.

2374
02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:36,000
Yeah.

2375
02:36:36,000 --> 02:36:37,000
True.

2376
02:36:37,000 --> 02:36:43,000
But if, if we can look at him and, um, Senate more candidates, there's anything that he could do.

2377
02:36:43,000 --> 02:36:47,000
And I think he was at the meeting at the car meeting when we brought it up.

2378
02:36:47,000 --> 02:36:50,000
And of course everybody said, where's the money going to come from?

2379
02:36:50,000 --> 02:36:55,000
Well, I think we all realized there's a whole bunch of money sitting up there.

2380
02:36:55,000 --> 02:36:56,000
Yeah.

2381
02:36:56,000 --> 02:36:59,000
And, and some of it, there's a whole lot of hoops you have to go through.

2382
02:36:59,000 --> 02:37:03,000
Some of it doesn't have a whole lot of strings attached to it.

2383
02:37:03,000 --> 02:37:09,000
It's simply a matter of getting somebody to listen to us to consider what our request is.

2384
02:37:09,000 --> 02:37:12,000
And, and that one like I said, for several different reasons.

2385
02:37:12,000 --> 02:37:13,000
It's, it's bad.

2386
02:37:13,000 --> 02:37:17,000
And then of course, there's three years I've run with them in bad shape.

2387
02:37:17,000 --> 02:37:18,000
Well, that's it.

2388
02:37:18,000 --> 02:37:19,000
And, you know.

2389
02:37:19,000 --> 02:37:20,000
You know.

2390
02:37:20,000 --> 02:37:21,000
I try to get big.

2391
02:37:21,000 --> 02:37:22,000
Yeah.

2392
02:37:22,000 --> 02:37:27,000
And that'll lead us into the next item, which is the tip program through Gulf Regional Planning Commission.

2393
02:37:27,000 --> 02:37:31,000
Any applications for that are due January 31st.

2394
02:37:31,000 --> 02:37:35,000
And that's for the funding period through 2024.

2395
02:37:35,000 --> 02:37:38,000
What it does, it gets on on their list.

2396
02:37:38,000 --> 02:37:43,000
And then they start funneling the money through MDOT for different projects.

2397
02:37:43,000 --> 02:37:46,000
And we have two of them that we'd recommend.

2398
02:37:46,000 --> 02:37:52,000
One is takes us flat road for two and a half million dollar project for improvements.

2399
02:37:52,000 --> 02:37:55,000
Mainly fixing up what's there and going with that.

2400
02:37:55,000 --> 02:37:57,000
That have to be state aid stuff.

2401
02:37:57,000 --> 02:38:01,000
Does it have to be a state aid road that they work on?

2402
02:38:01,000 --> 02:38:02,000
I don't think so.

2403
02:38:02,000 --> 02:38:05,000
Well, that's a lot of stuff.

2404
02:38:05,000 --> 02:38:06,000
Yeah.

2405
02:38:06,000 --> 02:38:07,000
Yeah.

2406
02:38:07,000 --> 02:38:09,000
Well, so that's what I try to do.

2407
02:38:09,000 --> 02:38:11,000
Flat top.

2408
02:38:11,000 --> 02:38:12,000
They didn't tell you what.

2409
02:38:12,000 --> 02:38:14,000
That check until our check and we'll get flat top.

2410
02:38:14,000 --> 02:38:15,000
Come on.

2411
02:38:15,000 --> 02:38:16,000
You know, we've got four to three.

2412
02:38:16,000 --> 02:38:18,000
But they, they've done it.

2413
02:38:18,000 --> 02:38:19,000
They've done it.

2414
02:38:19,000 --> 02:38:20,000
They've done that.

2415
02:38:20,000 --> 02:38:21,000
But they've explained.

2416
02:38:21,000 --> 02:38:26,000
I'm not going to use that to plant.

2417
02:38:26,000 --> 02:38:29,000
But this would get us two projects.

2418
02:38:29,000 --> 02:38:32,000
The one would, like I said, would be Texas flat.

2419
02:38:32,000 --> 02:38:34,000
Yeah, Texas flat.

2420
02:38:34,000 --> 02:38:37,000
And then the other would be Lakeshore Road.

2421
02:38:37,000 --> 02:38:39,000
Finishing up on Lakeshore Road.

2422
02:38:39,000 --> 02:38:43,000
That project would be 600,000, 120,000,

2423
02:38:43,000 --> 02:38:45,000
20 percent match.

2424
02:38:45,000 --> 02:38:47,000
And the other would be Texas flat.

2425
02:38:47,000 --> 02:38:49,000
Would be two and a half million dollar project.

2426
02:38:49,000 --> 02:38:50,000
I'm sorry.

2427
02:38:50,000 --> 02:38:51,000
I'm sorry.

2428
02:38:51,000 --> 02:38:52,000
Lakeshore Road.

2429
02:38:52,000 --> 02:38:53,000
Yeah.

2430
02:38:53,000 --> 02:39:07,000
So it would be two, two, one would be a two and a half million dollar project.

2431
02:39:07,000 --> 02:39:10,000
600,000 would a 20 percent match.

2432
02:39:10,000 --> 02:39:14,000
And that would be two recommendations if we have any others.

2433
02:39:14,000 --> 02:39:18,000
If not, if we can get more approval to approve these two to be submitted.

2434
02:39:18,000 --> 02:39:21,000
Before the December, I mean January 31st deadline.

2435
02:39:21,000 --> 02:39:22,000
May the motion?

2436
02:39:22,000 --> 02:39:23,000
Yeah.

2437
02:39:23,000 --> 02:39:24,000
Second.

2438
02:39:24,000 --> 02:39:26,000
We got a motion by district two.

2439
02:39:26,000 --> 02:39:28,000
Second by district one.

2440
02:39:28,000 --> 02:39:30,000
If we get it's out of copper, we can spread on the menace.

2441
02:39:30,000 --> 02:39:31,000
Yes.

2442
02:39:31,000 --> 02:39:32,000
Yes.

2443
02:39:32,000 --> 02:39:33,000
Red on the menace.

2444
02:39:33,000 --> 02:39:34,000
Red on the menace.

2445
02:39:34,000 --> 02:39:37,000
I'll get a motion of second.

2446
02:39:37,000 --> 02:39:39,000
Any further discussion?

2447
02:39:39,000 --> 02:39:42,000
Be a nine district one, two, three, four, and five.

2448
02:39:42,000 --> 02:39:44,000
Motion carried five, zero.

2449
02:39:44,000 --> 02:39:46,000
Okay.

2450
02:39:46,000 --> 02:39:53,000
Quick update on the Gulf Coast Mental Health Center funding issues.

2451
02:39:53,000 --> 02:39:57,000
At the last meeting, we talked about a crucial deadline.

2452
02:39:57,000 --> 02:40:01,000
A critical deadline was going to be the middle of January.

2453
02:40:01,000 --> 02:40:04,000
Two weeks ago, when we were in Jackson.

2454
02:40:04,000 --> 02:40:09,000
It's got a ten of the meeting with the State Department of Mental Health folks.

2455
02:40:09,000 --> 02:40:12,000
And some of the Harrison County folks.

2456
02:40:12,000 --> 02:40:15,000
I think at that meeting, it was talked about they were going to provide the

2457
02:40:15,000 --> 02:40:23,000
funding that was being requested or that was being delayed at the time.

2458
02:40:23,000 --> 02:40:28,000
So at least the January 15 disaster deadline has passed.

2459
02:40:28,000 --> 02:40:31,000
And they got that on the 13th and they payroll.

2460
02:40:31,000 --> 02:40:32,000
Yeah.

2461
02:40:32,000 --> 02:40:36,000
The next crisis from what I understand was that that amount was like $4,000.

2462
02:40:36,000 --> 02:40:37,000
Yeah.

2463
02:40:37,000 --> 02:40:38,000
Yeah.

2464
02:40:38,000 --> 02:40:41,000
And so to that they actually need for that.

2465
02:40:41,000 --> 02:40:43,000
I want to say it was in 200.

2466
02:40:43,000 --> 02:40:44,000
Yeah.

2467
02:40:44,000 --> 02:40:45,000
To something range.

2468
02:40:45,000 --> 02:40:51,000
And the indication was that once you got passed there, the next critical timeline is more

2469
02:40:51,000 --> 02:40:53,000
large.

2470
02:40:53,000 --> 02:40:54,000
Yes.

2471
02:40:54,000 --> 02:40:55,000
Yes.

2472
02:40:55,000 --> 02:40:58,000
There are a lot of money that they're talking to.

2473
02:40:58,000 --> 02:41:01,000
There are fairly different categories.

2474
02:41:01,000 --> 02:41:09,000
From the state, it was a reimbursement from the State Department of Mental Health that they

2475
02:41:09,000 --> 02:41:10,000
were suspended.

2476
02:41:10,000 --> 02:41:13,000
And it was being delayed in reimbursement.

2477
02:41:13,000 --> 02:41:14,000
They're basically for it.

2478
02:41:14,000 --> 02:41:16,000
And then they finally got it into.

2479
02:41:16,000 --> 02:41:27,000
Should have been in the first of the year.

2480
02:41:27,000 --> 02:41:30,000
The next issue was going to be in March.

2481
02:41:30,000 --> 02:41:33,000
That's going to be the serious one.

2482
02:41:33,000 --> 02:41:38,000
One of the questions that was brought up at our meeting with the State folks was, if all

2483
02:41:38,000 --> 02:41:41,000
else fails.

2484
02:41:41,000 --> 02:41:44,000
And we still need some one-time money.

2485
02:41:44,000 --> 02:41:50,000
Does the State have anything available either through the mental health or going to the

2486
02:41:50,000 --> 02:41:51,000
legislature.

2487
02:41:51,000 --> 02:41:58,000
A couple of the Harrison County folks expressed the concern that nobody's going to give the

2488
02:41:58,000 --> 02:42:01,000
mental health forward any money because it messed it up so bad.

2489
02:42:01,000 --> 02:42:04,000
And my answer to him was, well, no offense.

2490
02:42:04,000 --> 02:42:08,000
We messed up by not monitoring what they were doing.

2491
02:42:08,000 --> 02:42:11,000
Now the legislature needs to understand that we're involved.

2492
02:42:11,000 --> 02:42:13,000
And we're not going to let it happen again.

2493
02:42:13,000 --> 02:42:16,000
But still didn't get an answer to saying there is money.

2494
02:42:16,000 --> 02:42:17,000
There isn't money.

2495
02:42:17,000 --> 02:42:20,000
Again, out of all the pools of money, that's up to you.

2496
02:42:20,000 --> 02:42:25,000
If we needed one-time influx, where would he come from?

2497
02:42:25,000 --> 02:42:29,000
So it's still on the table that the money could come from.

2498
02:42:29,000 --> 02:42:33,000
Or would need to come from the counties if not from the State.

2499
02:42:33,000 --> 02:42:40,000
Several options of being looked at to possibility of privatizing possibility of moving in

2500
02:42:40,000 --> 02:42:44,000
with one of the other county entities.

2501
02:42:44,000 --> 02:42:51,000
We have a meeting scheduled for Thursday with Pine Belt District 12 to talk to them about the

2502
02:42:51,000 --> 02:42:56,000
possibilities of doing the same thing that Harrison Kent, I mean, excuse me that

2503
02:42:56,000 --> 02:42:57,000
county did.

2504
02:42:57,000 --> 02:43:03,000
They dropped out of Gulf Coast and joined the Harrisburg area Pine Belt.

2505
02:43:03,000 --> 02:43:06,000
We have a meeting to discuss that as an option.

2506
02:43:06,000 --> 02:43:12,000
We're still waiting to see what is done with the other county counties.

2507
02:43:12,000 --> 02:43:16,000
As far as any advertisement for privatization.

2508
02:43:16,000 --> 02:43:20,000
Just weighing all of our options now, but we don't have a lot of time to do it.

2509
02:43:20,000 --> 02:43:24,000
We still have, hopefully, at least a couple of months before.

2510
02:43:24,000 --> 02:43:27,000
Now, what was the amount of money for March that they're going to need?

2511
02:43:27,000 --> 02:43:28,000
$600,000.

2512
02:43:28,000 --> 02:43:29,000
It's around $700.

2513
02:43:29,000 --> 02:43:33,000
And this is the, do we know if Harrison County and Stone County?

2514
02:43:33,000 --> 02:43:41,000
Because right now, based on the money we typically give, we're at about 75% of what we typically

2515
02:43:41,000 --> 02:43:44,000
would give them for the year, or we should only be at about 35.

2516
02:43:44,000 --> 02:43:47,000
So we're way ahead of what we're supposed to be given on.

2517
02:43:47,000 --> 02:43:53,000
As the other, as Stone and Harrison given them ahead, or did they just give the first six months?

2518
02:43:53,000 --> 02:43:57,000
My understanding is they gave the first six months last August.

2519
02:43:57,000 --> 02:43:59,000
And it's like we did.

2520
02:43:59,000 --> 02:44:01,000
And have not started.

2521
02:44:01,000 --> 02:44:04,000
Pro-rated the other at every 50% of the balance of the 50%.

2522
02:44:04,000 --> 02:44:10,000
They won't start making that payment until April 1st, which is the last six months of the fiscal year.

2523
02:44:10,000 --> 02:44:14,000
We started after we made the initial 50%.

2524
02:44:14,000 --> 02:44:17,000
We took the last 50%.

2525
02:44:17,000 --> 02:44:21,000
And pro-rated over 12 months to start payments again.

2526
02:44:21,000 --> 02:44:24,000
And we've already, and through January with that.

2527
02:44:24,000 --> 02:44:25,000
Correct.

2528
02:44:25,000 --> 02:44:30,000
So we're way ahead of schedule as far as what we appropriate to, just can the other Harrison

2529
02:44:30,000 --> 02:44:31,000
County out?

2530
02:44:31,000 --> 02:44:33,000
I don't know if they're willing to do that.

2531
02:44:33,000 --> 02:44:36,000
Well, they need, there's different ways to cut it.

2532
02:44:36,000 --> 02:44:38,000
They basically give you three different options.

2533
02:44:38,000 --> 02:44:40,000
Come down to the need of from them.

2534
02:44:40,000 --> 02:44:47,000
And again, the concern I still have is whether that's the true number is 70 or 40,000.

2535
02:44:48,000 --> 02:44:51,000
Harrison County is contribution to this.

2536
02:44:51,000 --> 02:44:56,000
It's roughly a million, three, Mr. Eddie, something like that.

2537
02:44:56,000 --> 02:45:00,000
So they've given the 650 so a failure.

2538
02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:29,960
We'll see if they've funded the other 651 in May. I mean, the problem is you've got a cash fund. How's that get? Where's that get you to? So, at some point, but they can start generating money. So, I don't know if another $650,000 pledge from the Harrison County who has a lot of deportion or some contribution, but the general ask is $740K, but I mean, just, you would think though, that's the right number that if you have an earlier cash influx, number larger amount.

2539
02:45:30,000 --> 02:45:36,000
It would help you for a longer period of time to where you're generating more income. You may not need $740K.

2540
02:45:36,000 --> 02:45:43,000
Correct. I think part of it as well, the new control, the core, we can't remember this last thing.

2541
02:45:43,000 --> 02:45:55,000
Appears to be pretty good as it's job. The unfortunate thing is he hadn't been there very long. He's only been there for a month or two months.

2542
02:45:55,000 --> 02:46:11,000
Something like that. Even the state folks are confident that he will be able to get into it and do all of the things and answer all of the questions that we all have, like, what happened and what can we do to make sure it doesn't happen again.

2543
02:46:11,000 --> 02:46:18,000
And the most important part is what we've all been asking, what is it going to take? What is the real number?

2544
02:46:18,000 --> 02:46:30,000
If we do another $750,000 collectively, how long is that going to last? And here it talks about if we'd get $840,000, that'll carry it into July. If we get $740,000, that'll carry it to this.

2545
02:46:30,000 --> 02:46:33,000
But there's still some concern.

2546
02:46:34,000 --> 02:46:38,000
Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. You're building your collections.

2547
02:46:38,000 --> 02:46:48,000
And I think the good thing is that being able to buy some time with the payment that did get me by the 15, we now have till some time in March, April.

2548
02:46:48,000 --> 02:46:59,000
And that's another couple of months that core, you'll have to get in and evaluate what and hopefully find some of the information that he provided for the last meeting.

2549
02:47:00,000 --> 02:47:06,000
Because I still have to believe that there is a fix, it's just a question of when and where and how much.

2550
02:47:06,000 --> 02:47:11,000
And at this point, I don't know if anybody in spite of what's in the core,

2551
02:47:11,000 --> 02:47:14,000
but I don't know if anybody has a real firm idea of what that is.

2552
02:47:14,000 --> 02:47:19,000
So we need to acquire or request monthly financial reports from them.

2553
02:47:19,000 --> 02:47:23,000
Yeah, I think, I think, as we get forward.

2554
02:47:23,000 --> 02:47:26,000
Yeah, absolutely. I think we have appointments.

2555
02:47:26,000 --> 02:47:35,000
Our appointment and we can ask him to come to each one of our meetings after he goes to them and provide that information.

2556
02:47:35,000 --> 02:47:40,000
But it is being provided now or on a regular basis.

2557
02:47:40,000 --> 02:47:46,000
And I'll make sure we get copies for the board on everything that is being presented now.

2558
02:47:46,000 --> 02:47:51,000
That's what I say. I think there's so much that's changed in the positive.

2559
02:47:51,000 --> 02:47:55,000
It's almost like you hate to give up on it.

2560
02:47:55,000 --> 02:47:59,000
You have a new board, a folks much more.

2561
02:47:59,000 --> 02:48:05,000
I don't want to say the other ones weren't caring about mental health,

2562
02:48:05,000 --> 02:48:09,000
but I don't necessarily think they were worried about the financial part.

2563
02:48:09,000 --> 02:48:14,000
They were too trusting of the folks that ran a position to see a phone to see you.

2564
02:48:14,000 --> 02:48:17,000
And it worked for a long time.

2565
02:48:17,000 --> 02:48:19,000
Then it quit working.

2566
02:48:19,000 --> 02:48:22,000
And it went to hell and a hand basket.

2567
02:48:22,000 --> 02:48:24,000
And it fairly quit up here.

2568
02:48:24,000 --> 02:48:25,000
That's it.

2569
02:48:25,000 --> 02:48:26,000
That's it.

2570
02:48:26,000 --> 02:48:27,000
Absolutely.

2571
02:48:27,000 --> 02:48:30,000
So the base is you can see it coming for an all.

2572
02:48:30,000 --> 02:48:31,000
Correct.

2573
02:48:31,000 --> 02:48:32,000
Absolutely.

2574
02:48:32,000 --> 02:48:36,000
And I think that's the intention now with the new folks that are in.

2575
02:48:36,000 --> 02:48:39,000
I don't know very much about the new CEO, but the CFO,

2576
02:48:39,000 --> 02:48:41,000
like I said, seems to be very calm.

2577
02:48:41,000 --> 02:48:47,000
But all the credentialing has been corrected or whatever that situation was,

2578
02:48:47,000 --> 02:48:52,000
but now how long does it take for you to see the collection's rolling?

2579
02:48:52,000 --> 02:48:53,000
And I guess from you feeling, you know.

2580
02:48:53,000 --> 02:48:56,000
What's the timeframe there?

2581
02:48:56,000 --> 02:48:57,000
Thanks.

2582
02:48:57,000 --> 02:48:58,000
Is it truly one of you?

2583
02:48:58,000 --> 02:48:59,000
Is it?

2584
02:48:59,000 --> 02:49:00,000
No.

2585
02:49:00,000 --> 02:49:01,000
There is a time, there are no, there are there.

2586
02:49:01,000 --> 02:49:02,000
There's so much thought.

2587
02:49:02,000 --> 02:49:04,000
There're not a short staff, there's there's that vicious cycle.

2588
02:49:04,000 --> 02:49:06,000
We can't afford to hire new staff,

2589
02:49:06,000 --> 02:49:08,000
because we don't have the money yet.

2590
02:49:08,000 --> 02:49:11,500
And without the new staff, we can increase the billings,

2591
02:49:11,500 --> 02:49:15,000
but we don't have the staff to do the work that's going to generate the bill.

2592
02:49:15,000 --> 02:49:18,500
So, it's that cycle that somewhere along the line,

2593
02:49:18,500 --> 02:49:20,000
and we've talked about it.

2594
02:49:20,000 --> 02:49:24,000
There is that magic number of what is going to take to get us to that point.

2595
02:49:24,000 --> 02:49:27,000
But it's not what we also need to have other options available.

2596
02:49:27,000 --> 02:49:29,000
So that's what we're working on.

2597
02:49:29,000 --> 02:49:30,000
That's what we need to discuss.

2598
02:49:30,000 --> 02:49:33,000
Other options that no service, there's no last service, we need to write it.

2599
02:49:33,000 --> 02:49:35,000
There will be no lapse in service.

2600
02:49:35,000 --> 02:49:39,000
So that's been committed to by everybody to lay any fears.

2601
02:49:39,000 --> 02:49:41,000
There will be no lapse in service.

2602
02:49:41,000 --> 02:49:44,000
Whatever it takes to get that at point.

2603
02:49:44,000 --> 02:49:46,000
Harrison County's made that commitment.

2604
02:49:46,000 --> 02:49:50,000
I think stone is made it, and we've made it here previously,

2605
02:49:50,000 --> 02:49:52,000
that there will be no lapse in service.

2606
02:49:52,000 --> 02:49:56,000
It's just a question of figuring out what avenue we're going to have to take to get to him.

2607
02:49:56,000 --> 02:50:00,000
So, I like, you know, officers, that are the hostility important.

2608
02:50:00,000 --> 02:50:01,000
We'll be.

2609
02:50:01,000 --> 02:50:02,000
We've talked to them.

2610
02:50:02,000 --> 02:50:05,000
They're willing to look at pieces of it.

2611
02:50:05,000 --> 02:50:06,000
Small pieces.

2612
02:50:06,000 --> 02:50:10,000
But not the entire package.

2613
02:50:10,000 --> 02:50:15,000
Other entities, I think, would consider the same thing.

2614
02:50:15,000 --> 02:50:20,000
The ultimate goal would be if we could find somebody that would basically come in and privatize it.

2615
02:50:20,000 --> 02:50:22,000
You take everything.

2616
02:50:22,000 --> 02:50:25,000
In the shape that it's in, I don't know if that's going to happen.

2617
02:50:25,000 --> 02:50:30,000
So we may have to write it out a little bit until we can get that at point.

2618
02:50:30,000 --> 02:50:34,000
But again, we're looking at every option we possibly can.

2619
02:50:34,000 --> 02:50:35,000
Any idea?

2620
02:50:35,000 --> 02:50:38,000
I think, for the sake of the news, especially.

2621
02:50:38,000 --> 02:50:42,000
I just think that they are important, because those are really, really,

2622
02:50:42,000 --> 02:50:44,000
that we have to do a lot of good things.

2623
02:50:44,000 --> 02:50:49,000
We all have a couple of things to have place to send these people who know the commitments.

2624
02:50:49,000 --> 02:50:55,000
But the real issues that we're doing with this is, like, we've got good problems here.

2625
02:50:55,000 --> 02:50:57,000
That's under the government of health.

2626
02:50:57,000 --> 02:51:06,000
We've got low-end clinics that appear for people to keep them from getting to the point that we've got to do in voluntary use for that.

2627
02:51:06,000 --> 02:51:10,000
That's a work that will assist them if we can never get back on our feet.

2628
02:51:10,000 --> 02:51:11,000
Yeah.

2629
02:51:11,000 --> 02:51:13,000
The fact that we've got so far with that, financially.

2630
02:51:13,000 --> 02:51:16,000
They, at the end, that they're just not able to get both around.

2631
02:51:16,000 --> 02:51:18,000
Hey, the new thing that's been in my mind.

2632
02:51:18,000 --> 02:51:24,000
Is there any chance for anybody to discuss, possibly, of looking to see if they would be able

2633
02:51:24,000 --> 02:51:26,000
to be able to do anything else or really type of on it?

2634
02:51:26,000 --> 02:51:32,000
They can show a business plan, or the money's going to be in here eventually.

2635
02:51:32,000 --> 02:51:37,000
You know, that's what counties that had to do with public entities to do out in bond money,

2636
02:51:37,000 --> 02:51:41,000
to get an influx of money to be able to operate until that money comes in.

2637
02:51:41,000 --> 02:51:43,000
And then a pay off to pay them back.

2638
02:51:43,000 --> 02:51:45,000
There's a meaning that's just...

2639
02:51:45,000 --> 02:51:49,000
That was discussed at our meeting with the state folks in what Harrison County was.

2640
02:51:49,000 --> 02:51:57,000
If push come the show, if state middle health folks had any money, just doing it on a loan.

2641
02:51:57,000 --> 02:51:59,000
Some kind of a loan type basis.

2642
02:51:59,000 --> 02:52:03,000
And then recoup the money set up a reasonable repayment plan.

2643
02:52:03,000 --> 02:52:11,000
But whatever that number is to get the money, if there's no intention of doing an outright one-time grant deal,

2644
02:52:11,000 --> 02:52:13,000
do it as some sort of a loan.

2645
02:52:13,000 --> 02:52:15,000
Again, nothing finalized.

2646
02:52:16,000 --> 02:52:21,000
But that is one of the considerations that has been tossed off as a way in.

2647
02:52:21,000 --> 02:52:22,000
And I think it's reasonable.

2648
02:52:22,000 --> 02:52:31,000
Again, but the bad thing is until we know how much it is, it's tough for anybody to consider any sort of relief.

2649
02:52:31,000 --> 02:52:35,000
Well, a permanent or short-term type thing.

2650
02:52:35,000 --> 02:52:39,000
And for some of the big board members, there's that story of primates from the country.

2651
02:52:39,000 --> 02:52:41,000
So this is not what it does.

2652
02:52:41,000 --> 02:52:42,000
It's the deal I was in.

2653
02:52:42,000 --> 02:52:43,000
It's not optional.

2654
02:52:43,000 --> 02:52:45,000
It's not what we've got to provide.

2655
02:52:45,000 --> 02:52:50,000
We've got to get people straight from the side of the suicide.

2656
02:52:50,000 --> 02:52:52,000
We're at the society.

2657
02:52:52,000 --> 02:52:54,000
We've got to get a place to provide.

2658
02:52:54,000 --> 02:52:59,000
People walking before they get to that point of having the involvement here.

2659
02:52:59,000 --> 02:53:01,000
So that's that story.

2660
02:53:02,000 --> 02:53:06,000
Yes, correct.

2661
02:53:06,000 --> 02:53:14,000
You heard Judge Fall Verlia and somebody other folks making a presentation with him of the reliance on

2662
02:53:14,000 --> 02:53:18,000
of Coach mental health for some of their services for the kids.

2663
02:53:18,000 --> 02:53:19,000
So it is.

2664
02:53:19,000 --> 02:53:24,000
It's it's read reaches out to quite a few areas for the need for services.

2665
02:53:24,000 --> 02:53:35,000
We haven't, to my knowledge, we haven't heard anything back from the Harrison County Board to see what their latest action is through their attorney, Trisha, Tisdale, I believe.

2666
02:53:35,000 --> 02:53:50,000
And so that would be one of the other things as well. In addition to the meaning that we have scheduled for Thursday, if there's any way Gary could reach Tisdale and see if anything's available to meet with them, get an update from them.

2667
02:53:50,000 --> 02:54:02,000
And again, put our heads together, us going to them, them coming to us, whatever it ends up being, to where we could sit down and get that as well, because they're the big dog in the game.

2668
02:54:02,000 --> 02:54:10,000
You know, they pay 80% of the funding, whatever it is, 75% whatever it is, whatever it is, and don't pay the balance of it.

2669
02:54:10,000 --> 02:54:20,000
But it still, Tim can tell you what it used to cost accounting, before we joined Gulf Coast Mental Health was in the, and this was back then probably in a half million dollar range.

2670
02:54:20,000 --> 02:54:35,000
So the 250,000 we pay now is considerably less than what it used to cost us, and then factor in all the increases and everything could very well be a lot more than half million dollars if we did it on our own.

2671
02:54:35,000 --> 02:54:57,000
So that's something we'll keep you posted, we've got it a meeting Thursday, and anything else that comes up we'll keep you posted on our own.

2672
02:54:57,000 --> 02:55:06,000
So that's something we'll keep you posted, we've got it a meeting Thursday, and anything else that comes up we'll keep you posted on that.

2673
02:55:06,000 --> 02:55:10,000
So that's the latest on mental health.

2674
02:55:10,000 --> 02:55:16,000
Next item's approval for attendance at the Hurricane Conference.

2675
02:55:17,000 --> 02:55:29,000
April 6th through the 9th in Orlando for those interested in attending.

2676
02:55:29,000 --> 02:55:32,000
If we get approval.

2677
02:55:32,000 --> 02:55:39,000
Motion by district five second by district one, any further discussion.

2678
02:55:39,000 --> 02:55:45,000
And none district one two three four and five motion carries five zero.

2679
02:55:45,000 --> 02:55:49,000
One last item that I didn't get added.

2680
02:55:49,000 --> 02:55:52,000
Nancy got some great news this morning.

2681
02:55:52,000 --> 02:55:59,000
We received our first check any amount of a hundred and three thousand seven and thirty nine dollars and.

2682
02:55:59,000 --> 02:56:09,000
25 cents and that's for the use tax modernization program for them all this extra sales tax that they're collected from these outside.

2683
02:56:09,000 --> 02:56:13,000
Out of state vendors and merchants and it's supposed to come in.

2684
02:56:13,000 --> 02:56:23,000
Over what a four year period in one fourth this year and then two four next year and four years from now we'll reach the whole amount.

2685
02:56:23,000 --> 02:56:26,000
I'll reduce your two fours to a half.

2686
02:56:26,000 --> 02:56:29,000
Three four seven.

2687
02:56:29,000 --> 02:56:30,000
True.

2688
02:56:30,000 --> 02:56:35,000
And one of the things though is it's got to be spent this year by standing.

2689
02:56:35,000 --> 02:56:38,000
I don't know all the restrictions on what it can be spent on.

2690
02:56:38,000 --> 02:56:39,000
It's there.

2691
02:56:39,000 --> 02:56:41,000
It's it's road department.

2692
02:56:41,000 --> 02:56:44,000
Whether it's just paving or paving and bridge.

2693
02:56:44,000 --> 02:56:45,000
Whatever it is.

2694
02:56:45,000 --> 02:56:47,000
It's not just.

2695
02:56:47,000 --> 02:56:48,000
I agree.

2696
02:56:48,000 --> 02:56:49,000
No.

2697
02:56:49,000 --> 02:56:52,000
Just say.

2698
02:56:52,000 --> 02:56:55,000
Oh, yeah, I got that started anyway.

2699
02:56:55,000 --> 02:56:57,000
We'll have a report at the next meeting.

2700
02:56:57,000 --> 02:56:58,000
Pick it up.

2701
02:56:58,000 --> 02:57:02,000
Get together with Jeff and see what all we have to do on it in.

2702
02:57:02,000 --> 02:57:04,000
More and be involved in that as well.

2703
02:57:04,000 --> 02:57:10,000
Because it's it's some particular details of which you have to do.

2704
02:57:10,000 --> 02:57:12,000
And I wouldn't quite expect it now.

2705
02:57:12,000 --> 02:57:13,000
So we didn't.

2706
02:57:13,000 --> 02:57:14,000
Yeah.

2707
02:57:14,000 --> 02:57:15,000
It was.

2708
02:57:15,000 --> 02:57:16,000
It was.

2709
02:57:16,000 --> 02:57:17,000
It was.

2710
02:57:17,000 --> 02:57:18,000
It was.

2711
02:57:18,000 --> 02:57:19,000
It was.

2712
02:57:19,000 --> 02:57:20,000
I.

2713
02:57:20,000 --> 02:57:21,000
Briefly tried.

2714
02:57:21,000 --> 02:57:31,000
I think we need to vote.

2715
02:57:31,000 --> 02:57:32,000
I think we need to vote.

2716
02:57:32,000 --> 02:57:33,000
We need to vote.

2717
02:57:33,000 --> 02:57:35,000
We need to vote in the national hurricane conference.

2718
02:57:35,000 --> 02:57:36,000
To be both.

2719
02:57:36,000 --> 02:57:37,000
Yeah.

2720
02:57:37,000 --> 02:57:38,000
Yeah.

2721
02:57:38,000 --> 02:57:39,000
We did.

2722
02:57:39,000 --> 02:57:40,000
We did.

2723
02:57:40,000 --> 02:57:41,000
Yeah.

2724
02:57:41,000 --> 02:57:42,000
Five.

2725
02:57:42,000 --> 02:57:43,000
Yeah.

2726
02:57:43,000 --> 02:57:44,000
Okay.

2727
02:57:44,000 --> 02:57:45,000
Uh.

2728
02:57:45,000 --> 02:57:46,000
Yeah.

2729
02:57:46,000 --> 02:57:47,000
Yeah.

2730
02:57:47,000 --> 02:57:48,000
One way.

2731
02:57:48,000 --> 02:57:49,000
And then we vote.

2732
02:57:49,000 --> 02:57:50,000
Yeah.

2733
02:57:50,000 --> 02:57:51,000
I'm causing problems.

2734
02:57:51,000 --> 02:57:52,000
Um.

2735
02:57:52,000 --> 02:57:54,000
First, I have some motion to renew the resolution.

2736
02:57:54,000 --> 02:57:56,000
Authorcy and the Spursments to the three.

2737
02:57:56,000 --> 02:57:59,000
Inca County cities of the additional 50% of the road and bridge money.

2738
02:57:59,000 --> 02:58:00,000
This is one.

2739
02:58:00,000 --> 02:58:01,000
The prior board did.

2740
02:58:01,000 --> 02:58:03,000
I think actually the last two boards are done.

2741
02:58:03,000 --> 02:58:05,000
There's a ability.

2742
02:58:05,000 --> 02:58:09,000
And this is related to taxes for road and bridge that are inside the cities.

2743
02:58:09,000 --> 02:58:12,000
We they get half of it by statute.

2744
02:58:12,000 --> 02:58:15,000
We have previously given them the other 50%.

2745
02:58:16,000 --> 02:58:20,000
Um, they would submit a request to us for the funds.

2746
02:58:20,000 --> 02:58:21,000
We would disperse in that manner.

2747
02:58:21,000 --> 02:58:23,000
So this is just for your consideration.

2748
02:58:23,000 --> 02:58:25,000
If you'd like to renew that.

2749
02:58:25,000 --> 02:58:26,000
The Spurs.

2750
02:58:26,000 --> 02:58:28,000
The full 100% of the road and bridge funds.

2751
02:58:28,000 --> 02:58:31,000
To the cities or statutory officer.

2752
02:58:31,000 --> 02:58:32,000
Keep half of it.

2753
02:58:32,000 --> 02:58:33,000
In the Spurs.

2754
02:58:33,000 --> 02:58:34,000
You're well.

2755
02:58:34,000 --> 02:58:36,000
So this is just for your consideration.

2756
02:58:36,000 --> 02:58:37,000
I'll make motion.

2757
02:58:37,000 --> 02:58:38,000
Second.

2758
02:58:38,000 --> 02:58:39,000
Motion.

2759
02:58:39,000 --> 02:58:40,000
Motion by district four.

2760
02:58:40,000 --> 02:58:42,000
Second by district five.

2761
02:58:42,000 --> 02:58:43,000
Any further discussion?

2762
02:58:43,000 --> 02:58:44,000
Yes.

2763
02:58:45,000 --> 02:58:46,000
They soon forget.

2764
02:58:46,000 --> 02:58:47,000
We give.

2765
02:58:47,000 --> 02:58:48,000
I don't know.

2766
02:58:48,000 --> 02:58:49,000
Fifth percent.

2767
02:58:49,000 --> 02:58:50,000
We give them the honor.

2768
02:58:50,000 --> 02:58:52,000
I'm not just like the Washington.

2769
02:58:52,000 --> 02:58:53,000
Breast.

2770
02:58:53,000 --> 02:58:54,000
Breast.

2771
02:58:54,000 --> 02:58:55,000
Roads.

2772
02:58:55,000 --> 02:58:56,000
That's right.

2773
02:58:56,000 --> 02:58:57,000
Come on.

2774
02:58:57,000 --> 02:58:59,000
But you say demand.

2775
02:58:59,000 --> 02:59:00,000
We give them.

2776
02:59:00,000 --> 02:59:01,000
I do costly.

2777
02:59:01,000 --> 02:59:02,000
I do costly.

2778
02:59:02,000 --> 02:59:03,000
I can't forget.

2779
02:59:03,000 --> 02:59:04,000
Very fast.

2780
02:59:04,000 --> 02:59:05,000
Yes.

2781
02:59:05,000 --> 02:59:06,000
They just.

2782
02:59:06,000 --> 02:59:07,000
They got a good memory.

2783
02:59:07,000 --> 02:59:08,000
It's just real short.

2784
02:59:08,000 --> 02:59:09,000
That's okay.

2785
02:59:11,000 --> 02:59:13,000
There's just given monthly because they're bond.

2786
02:59:13,000 --> 02:59:14,000
Right.

2787
02:59:14,000 --> 02:59:15,000
Yeah.

2788
02:59:15,000 --> 02:59:16,000
Yeah.

2789
02:59:16,000 --> 02:59:18,000
The other ones are given all at once.

2790
02:59:18,000 --> 02:59:19,000
They did.

2791
02:59:19,000 --> 02:59:20,000
They did kind of.

2792
02:59:20,000 --> 02:59:24,000
Typically requests say with like for example they would come and say we want to do this on serious

2793
02:59:24,000 --> 02:59:25,000
Avenue.

2794
02:59:25,000 --> 02:59:26,000
Yeah.

2795
02:59:26,000 --> 02:59:27,000
They would.

2796
02:59:27,000 --> 02:59:28,000
We had this project in mind.

2797
02:59:28,000 --> 02:59:31,000
We coordinate with Jeff or wherever we need to and it's kind of done that way.

2798
02:59:31,000 --> 02:59:32,000
It can be done however you want.

2799
02:59:32,000 --> 02:59:33,000
Sometimes it's.

2800
02:59:33,000 --> 02:59:34,000
It's every few months.

2801
02:59:34,000 --> 02:59:36,000
They've put a paper and program together.

2802
02:59:36,000 --> 02:59:38,000
Commit and say request.

2803
02:59:38,000 --> 02:59:39,000
We've accumulated.

2804
02:59:39,000 --> 02:59:40,000
Whatever.

2805
02:59:41,000 --> 02:59:42,000
Our diamond head.

2806
02:59:42,000 --> 02:59:43,000
The last request for them.

2807
02:59:43,000 --> 02:59:45,000
They had like a year and a half worth of money.

2808
02:59:45,000 --> 02:59:48,000
And they came in and said we want all of fiscal.

2809
02:59:48,000 --> 02:59:50,000
Eighteen's money because we don't do.

2810
02:59:50,000 --> 02:59:51,000
So we pretty much.

2811
02:59:51,000 --> 02:59:52,000
My plan was.

2812
02:59:52,000 --> 02:59:53,000
We know what's being done with that.

2813
02:59:53,000 --> 02:59:54,000
Absolutely.

2814
02:59:54,000 --> 02:59:55,000
Absolutely.

2815
02:59:55,000 --> 02:59:56,000
We have it.

2816
02:59:56,000 --> 02:59:57,000
We have it.

2817
02:59:57,000 --> 02:59:58,000
We have it.

2818
02:59:58,000 --> 03:00:00,000
We have it.

2819
03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:01,000
We have it.

2820
03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:12,000
And they tell us what the project is. And that's why it's written to say, upon request of the city to the supervisors. And now what you still know, they still come before you say this is what we're planning.

2821
03:00:12,000 --> 03:00:22,000
I've got a motion, the second. And if further discussion, be a none district one, two, three, four, and five motion carries five, zero.

2822
03:00:22,000 --> 03:00:37,000
Second item, we receive at the sign copy of the MOU Secretary of State to concern in the Sand Beach. The only amendment we had in this is to include within it, our ability to place fire pits, which relates to the next item.

2823
03:00:37,000 --> 03:00:42,000
So I'm just spreading that on the minutes, which was previously approved.

2824
03:00:42,000 --> 03:00:47,000
Motion by district two, second by district three, any further discussion?

2825
03:00:47,000 --> 03:00:53,000
Be a none district one, two, three, four, and five motion carries five, zero.

2826
03:00:53,000 --> 03:01:02,000
That's as a motion to authorise construction of these fire pits on Sand Beach per the map of locations in waiver of any applicable fees.

2827
03:01:02,000 --> 03:01:07,000
Mr. Kinney-Mati is funding no cost of the county.

2828
03:01:07,000 --> 03:01:14,000
Fire pits similar to what they have in Harrison County on the beaches. The locations of these, I can get your map.

2829
03:01:14,000 --> 03:01:21,000
But it's a long sequence of the major rights of way. Now where we know we don't have any right, Perry and I choose.

2830
03:01:21,000 --> 03:01:33,000
So now it's a purpose of the amendment with the MOU. So this would be to authorise and construct that way of any permit fees to the county and authorise that construction.

2831
03:01:33,000 --> 03:01:39,000
Motion by district two, second by district one, any further discussion?

2832
03:01:39,000 --> 03:01:43,000
Yes, sir.

2833
03:01:43,000 --> 03:01:44,000
Yes, sir.

2834
03:01:44,000 --> 03:01:49,000
Does that, does eliminate where you can have fires now?

2835
03:01:49,000 --> 03:01:53,000
As far as do they have to, and the fit is a question.

2836
03:01:53,000 --> 03:01:58,000
I would, I think that that's your call. You can't eliminate today.

2837
03:01:58,000 --> 03:01:59,000
Yes.

2838
03:01:59,000 --> 03:02:04,000
Well, the mess, the mess.

2839
03:02:05,000 --> 03:02:06,000
Yes. Okay.

2840
03:02:06,000 --> 03:02:14,000
And so if we have a motion to amend the agenda to limit the place of fire use on the beach to those locations of the two be constructed.

2841
03:02:14,000 --> 03:02:17,000
Fire pits upon their construction completion.

2842
03:02:17,000 --> 03:02:22,000
Which still require permit from the city fire department?

2843
03:02:22,000 --> 03:02:23,000
Yes.

2844
03:02:23,000 --> 03:02:29,000
Now I have had conversation with their fire chief and he would ask for us to take that over.

2845
03:02:29,000 --> 03:02:32,000
Well, I have that discussion. We need to meet with him.

2846
03:02:32,000 --> 03:02:37,000
And out of it, but currently it's going to be done through the base angle with fire department here and base angle us.

2847
03:02:37,000 --> 03:02:40,000
And I'm assuming wavelength anywhere and wavelength.

2848
03:02:40,000 --> 03:02:42,000
Right.

2849
03:02:42,000 --> 03:02:45,000
Okay.

2850
03:02:45,000 --> 03:02:46,000
Let me see it for a minute.

2851
03:02:46,000 --> 03:02:48,000
I should have one base angle as far as possible.

2852
03:02:48,000 --> 03:02:49,000
Okay.

2853
03:02:49,000 --> 03:02:54,000
So basically if you want to bonfire, you can only be constructed at that to there.

2854
03:02:54,000 --> 03:02:56,000
Now that's what we're saying here.

2855
03:02:56,000 --> 03:02:57,000
Yeah.

2856
03:02:57,000 --> 03:02:58,000
Let's go.

2857
03:02:58,000 --> 03:02:59,000
Which is it.

2858
03:02:59,000 --> 03:03:00,000
Listen.

2859
03:03:00,000 --> 03:03:02,000
Because people go out there and just they burn in silence.

2860
03:03:02,000 --> 03:03:04,000
They're not supposed to be.

2861
03:03:04,000 --> 03:03:05,000
And it's just creates a mess.

2862
03:03:05,000 --> 03:03:06,000
And this can help control that.

2863
03:03:06,000 --> 03:03:07,000
Thank you.

2864
03:03:07,000 --> 03:03:08,000
Probably as we clean.

2865
03:03:08,000 --> 03:03:09,000
Yeah.

2866
03:03:09,000 --> 03:03:10,000
So.

2867
03:03:10,000 --> 03:03:11,000
Exactly.

2868
03:03:11,000 --> 03:03:13,000
But how many fire pits we talk in fire?

2869
03:03:13,000 --> 03:03:14,000
I don't know there.

2870
03:03:14,000 --> 03:03:15,000
Probably.

2871
03:03:15,000 --> 03:03:16,000
Probably.

2872
03:03:16,000 --> 03:03:18,000
But I mean, it's basically a thing.

2873
03:03:18,000 --> 03:03:19,000
It's a year.

2874
03:03:19,000 --> 03:03:20,000
Okay.

2875
03:03:20,000 --> 03:03:21,000
So I think there's one like Nicholson.

2876
03:03:21,000 --> 03:03:25,000
There's one at Washington.

2877
03:03:25,000 --> 03:03:26,000
And so.

2878
03:03:26,000 --> 03:03:27,000
Probably down by coalman.

2879
03:03:27,000 --> 03:03:28,000
That's not a good idea.

2880
03:03:28,000 --> 03:03:29,000
That's a good idea.

2881
03:03:29,000 --> 03:03:30,000
That's not a good idea.

2882
03:03:30,000 --> 03:03:31,000
That's not a good idea.

2883
03:03:31,000 --> 03:03:32,000
We can do the same thing.

2884
03:03:32,000 --> 03:03:33,000
We can go back to some historic even.

2885
03:03:33,000 --> 03:03:34,000
Yeah.

2886
03:03:34,000 --> 03:03:35,000
That's what I'm pulling.

2887
03:03:35,000 --> 03:03:37,000
I can probably pull it here.

2888
03:03:37,000 --> 03:03:38,000
There's right here.

2889
03:03:38,000 --> 03:03:40,000
You see, somebody covers it one.

2890
03:03:40,000 --> 03:03:41,000
Obviously.

2891
03:03:41,000 --> 03:03:42,000
Pull that.

2892
03:03:42,000 --> 03:03:43,000
Okay.

2893
03:03:43,000 --> 03:03:44,000
So you have one.

2894
03:03:44,000 --> 03:03:47,000
You have one at Nicholson.

2895
03:03:47,000 --> 03:03:48,000
One at Washington Street.

2896
03:03:48,000 --> 03:03:49,000
One at Omen.

2897
03:03:49,000 --> 03:03:50,000
One at David.

2898
03:03:50,000 --> 03:03:51,000
Steve.

2899
03:03:51,000 --> 03:03:52,000
Oh man.

2900
03:03:52,000 --> 03:03:53,000
It's.

2901
03:03:53,000 --> 03:03:54,000
It's.

2902
03:03:54,000 --> 03:03:55,000
It's.

2903
03:03:55,000 --> 03:03:56,000
Oh my god.

2904
03:03:56,000 --> 03:03:57,000
There's.

2905
03:03:57,000 --> 03:03:58,000
There's.

2906
03:03:58,000 --> 03:04:00,000
On the.

2907
03:04:00,000 --> 03:04:01,000
Yeah.

2908
03:04:01,000 --> 03:04:02,000
It's.

2909
03:04:02,000 --> 03:04:03,000
What's.

2910
03:04:03,000 --> 03:04:04,000
Yeah.

2911
03:04:04,000 --> 03:04:06,000
We're.

2912
03:04:06,000 --> 03:04:07,000
Right.

2913
03:04:07,000 --> 03:04:08,000
Yeah.

2914
03:04:08,000 --> 03:04:09,000
We're.

2915
03:04:09,000 --> 03:04:10,000
Yeah.

2916
03:04:10,000 --> 03:04:11,000
We're.

2917
03:04:11,000 --> 03:04:12,000
Yeah.

2918
03:04:12,000 --> 03:04:13,000
We're.

2919
03:04:13,000 --> 03:04:14,000
Yeah.

2920
03:04:14,000 --> 03:04:15,000
We're.

2921
03:04:15,000 --> 03:04:16,000
We need.

2922
03:04:16,000 --> 03:04:17,000
We need.

2923
03:04:17,000 --> 03:04:18,000
Yeah.

2924
03:04:18,000 --> 03:04:19,000
We're.

2925
03:04:19,000 --> 03:04:20,000
We're.

2926
03:04:20,000 --> 03:04:21,000
We're.

2927
03:04:21,000 --> 03:04:22,000
We're.

2928
03:04:22,000 --> 03:04:26,380
And I don't think there's anything problematic with us.

2929
03:04:26,380 --> 03:04:28,560
It's you and Department of the obvious questions,

2930
03:04:28,560 --> 03:04:31,640
problem, as we don't have far departments down there.

2931
03:04:31,640 --> 03:04:33,400
So let's try it.

2932
03:04:33,400 --> 03:04:36,240
If they're going, if there may be some process,

2933
03:04:36,240 --> 03:04:38,800
we can do where the Department of the Department's,

2934
03:04:38,800 --> 03:04:41,560
but we can notify them of that, of the department.

2935
03:04:41,560 --> 03:04:45,920
That way, we maintain control of how we know that they're now,

2936
03:04:45,920 --> 03:04:47,320
with the documentation.

2937
03:04:47,320 --> 03:04:49,240
Because if not, it's first come first serve here.

2938
03:04:49,240 --> 03:04:51,320
I'll talk to the far chief officer.

2939
03:04:51,320 --> 03:04:52,640
I'll tell you what that.

2940
03:04:52,640 --> 03:04:56,240
About that, I mean, Wavans never approached me about us doing that,

2941
03:04:56,240 --> 03:04:58,960
basically what they say as, because all they do is take it

2942
03:04:58,960 --> 03:05:02,640
a positive, and they get people to deposit back after they clean up.

2943
03:05:02,640 --> 03:05:03,640
But.

2944
03:05:03,640 --> 03:05:13,240
Well, anyway, we've got a motion of the second.

2945
03:05:13,240 --> 03:05:16,240
And there's just too many of them.

2946
03:05:16,240 --> 03:05:19,840
Okay, just to many of you down any motion of the second.

2947
03:05:19,840 --> 03:05:21,240
Motion of the district, too.

2948
03:05:21,240 --> 03:05:23,800
Second, the district, five.

2949
03:05:23,800 --> 03:05:26,280
Any further discussion?

2950
03:05:26,280 --> 03:05:30,320
Be a non district, one, two, three, four, and five.

2951
03:05:30,320 --> 03:05:33,200
Motion carries five, zero.

2952
03:05:33,200 --> 03:05:35,040
That's just a motion to renew.

2953
03:05:35,040 --> 03:05:38,080
You know, a cool agreement among, I think, a county way,

2954
03:05:38,080 --> 03:05:39,960
when, basically, there's some time ahead for sharing

2955
03:05:39,960 --> 03:05:42,000
of resources, concerning road work.

2956
03:05:42,000 --> 03:05:44,000
Public folks from related items.

2957
03:05:44,000 --> 03:05:48,720
So this is a renewal of an interlocal, you know, this is, for example,

2958
03:05:48,720 --> 03:05:50,360
they have striking trucks.

2959
03:05:50,360 --> 03:05:54,560
They have some entities have some equipment that others don't have.

2960
03:05:54,560 --> 03:05:58,880
And this is just a one that we've had a lot of resources to share resources.

2961
03:05:58,880 --> 03:06:03,360
They just coordinate allows, for example, someone from, say,

2962
03:06:03,360 --> 03:06:07,440
have done, have wants to use some of our equipment that's up to,

2963
03:06:07,440 --> 03:06:11,040
beck about whether that's appropriate at the time and at the what,

2964
03:06:11,040 --> 03:06:12,240
to what when we're in line.

2965
03:06:12,240 --> 03:06:15,760
And so this is just a renewal of that interlocal agreement.

2966
03:06:15,760 --> 03:06:16,560
Second.

2967
03:06:16,560 --> 03:06:18,040
Got a motion to my district one.

2968
03:06:18,040 --> 03:06:20,320
Second, my district three.

2969
03:06:20,320 --> 03:06:22,920
Vicky, okay with that.

2970
03:06:22,920 --> 03:06:25,600
District one, two, three, four, and five.

2971
03:06:25,600 --> 03:06:27,280
Motion carries five, zero.

2972
03:06:27,280 --> 03:06:28,640
I'm going to question that.

2973
03:06:28,640 --> 03:06:29,760
Do you guys go in next y'all for it?

2974
03:06:29,760 --> 03:06:31,000
Or you just turn it over to it.

2975
03:06:31,000 --> 03:06:32,200
But we can do it.

2976
03:06:32,200 --> 03:06:33,200
It depends.

2977
03:06:33,200 --> 03:06:34,200
Okay.

2978
03:06:42,240 --> 03:06:44,400
That's right.

2979
03:06:44,400 --> 03:06:45,400
Yeah.

2980
03:06:45,400 --> 03:06:46,400
Don't get on the other side.

2981
03:06:46,400 --> 03:06:47,400
That's right.

2982
03:06:47,400 --> 03:06:49,320
To have stuff out there.

2983
03:06:49,320 --> 03:06:50,400
That's all.

2984
03:06:50,400 --> 03:06:51,400
That's all.

2985
03:06:51,400 --> 03:06:52,400
Yeah.

2986
03:06:52,400 --> 03:06:53,400
Yeah.

2987
03:06:53,400 --> 03:06:54,400
Yeah.

2988
03:06:54,400 --> 03:07:00,320
The next four items, you can, I'll ask you to consider together.

2989
03:07:00,320 --> 03:07:05,480
These are all related to the coalition that we're working through with the present

2990
03:07:05,480 --> 03:07:06,480
complaint.

2991
03:07:06,480 --> 03:07:08,280
We have against the honor of the engineers.

2992
03:07:08,280 --> 03:07:09,280
Some of these.

2993
03:07:09,280 --> 03:07:15,600
For example, the special management area, the fish reform bills, or some things that we can

2994
03:07:15,600 --> 03:07:21,960
implement, which if the MR approves those ultimately, those in spite of the federal issues

2995
03:07:21,960 --> 03:07:28,760
require some will require the Army Corps, which you see, sorry, permission from the MR, that

2996
03:07:28,760 --> 03:07:34,640
part of the opening of any spillway, not just the, the immediate one, but any other features

2997
03:07:34,640 --> 03:07:35,640
spillway.

2998
03:07:35,640 --> 03:07:43,640
Five is a proposed federal statute, namely the Mississippi Senate of Lake, the Poncta-Train

2999
03:07:43,640 --> 03:07:45,640
Protection Act.

3000
03:07:45,640 --> 03:07:50,000
Ms. Murray's Franks is intended on receiving this and sponsoring this.

3001
03:07:50,000 --> 03:07:58,680
This is an amendment after crypt from one previously done to protect some fisheries in adjacent

3002
03:07:58,680 --> 03:08:05,680
to the Grand Canyon, so it's modeled after that, so we'd be requesting our federal

3003
03:08:05,680 --> 03:08:12,640
delegation to support that, implement that, to make this a designated federal air protection.

3004
03:08:12,640 --> 03:08:17,640
And I like why it's the lower pearl freshwater project is a similar request.

3005
03:08:17,640 --> 03:08:24,720
So if we could, and these are all being presented to the coalition entities today, or just

3006
03:08:24,720 --> 03:08:29,880
week at their meeting, respect the meetings, and the plan is to try to get these to DMR

3007
03:08:29,880 --> 03:08:37,720
for consideration and state level this next week and to Ms. Murray's Franks for sponsorship

3008
03:08:37,720 --> 03:08:39,720
by the federal designation this week.

3009
03:08:39,720 --> 03:08:41,720
I need a motion of second.

3010
03:08:41,720 --> 03:08:42,720
Move.

3011
03:08:42,720 --> 03:08:43,720
Motion of my district five.

3012
03:08:43,720 --> 03:08:45,720
Second, my district three.

3013
03:08:45,720 --> 03:08:47,720
Any further discussion?

3014
03:08:48,720 --> 03:08:52,720
Be a non-district one, two, three, four, and five.

3015
03:08:52,720 --> 03:08:54,720
Motion carries five, zero.

3016
03:08:54,720 --> 03:08:56,720
And that's all I have.

3017
03:08:56,720 --> 03:08:58,720
I think the discussion here on the possible.

3018
03:08:58,720 --> 03:09:00,720
I think we've heard of that last time.

3019
03:09:00,720 --> 03:09:01,720
Of course.

3020
03:09:01,720 --> 03:09:06,720
That's, yeah.

3021
03:09:06,720 --> 03:09:11,720
I think on that, the only thing we were waiting for was the agreement from Brad, the amendment

3022
03:09:11,720 --> 03:09:13,720
to agreement to include before the end.

3023
03:09:13,720 --> 03:09:14,720
And that was waiting.

3024
03:09:14,720 --> 03:09:15,720
Okay.

3025
03:09:15,720 --> 03:09:17,720
I think that's all we have.

3026
03:09:17,720 --> 03:09:19,720
I thought we were last week.

3027
03:09:19,720 --> 03:09:20,720
So I got that.

3028
03:09:20,720 --> 03:09:21,720
Yeah.

3029
03:09:21,720 --> 03:09:22,720
That's all we have.

3030
03:09:22,720 --> 03:09:23,720
You took the songs now out there.

3031
03:09:23,720 --> 03:09:24,720
Yeah.

3032
03:09:24,720 --> 03:09:25,720
Thank you.

3033
03:09:25,720 --> 03:09:26,720
All right.

3034
03:09:26,720 --> 03:09:28,720
Moving on to supervisor items.

3035
03:09:28,720 --> 03:09:29,720
District one.

3036
03:09:29,720 --> 03:09:30,720
Thank you.

3037
03:09:30,720 --> 03:09:35,720
We've already done your appointment for the important harbor.

3038
03:09:35,720 --> 03:09:37,720
District two.

3039
03:09:37,720 --> 03:09:38,720
Good.

3040
03:09:38,720 --> 03:09:40,720
District three.

3041
03:09:40,720 --> 03:09:43,720
We need to do your.

3042
03:09:43,720 --> 03:09:44,720
We need to.

3043
03:09:44,720 --> 03:09:45,720
We need to.

3044
03:09:45,720 --> 03:09:48,720
I got a motion by District three to appoint E.J.

3045
03:09:48,720 --> 03:09:51,720
Bites as the election commissioner to replace District three.

3046
03:09:51,720 --> 03:09:52,720
Commissioner Mr. Gary Gilmore.

3047
03:09:52,720 --> 03:09:53,720
So I can.

3048
03:09:53,720 --> 03:09:56,720
We've got a second by district five.

3049
03:09:56,720 --> 03:09:58,720
Any further discussion?

3050
03:09:58,720 --> 03:10:00,720
And to that authorization.

3051
03:10:00,720 --> 03:10:05,720
To attend the training program that starts tomorrow morning.

3052
03:10:05,720 --> 03:10:08,720
For the election commission.

3053
03:10:09,720 --> 03:10:10,720
All right.

3054
03:10:10,720 --> 03:10:12,720
We've got a motion to the second.

3055
03:10:12,720 --> 03:10:15,720
Any further discussion?

3056
03:10:15,720 --> 03:10:16,720
Be in none.

3057
03:10:16,720 --> 03:10:17,720
District one.

3058
03:10:17,720 --> 03:10:18,720
Two.

3059
03:10:18,720 --> 03:10:19,720
Three.

3060
03:10:19,720 --> 03:10:20,720
Four.

3061
03:10:20,720 --> 03:10:21,720
And five.

3062
03:10:21,720 --> 03:10:22,720
Motion carries five.

3063
03:10:22,720 --> 03:10:23,720
Zero.

3064
03:10:23,720 --> 03:10:24,720
District four.

3065
03:10:24,720 --> 03:10:25,720
I'm good.

3066
03:10:25,720 --> 03:10:26,720
District five.

3067
03:10:26,720 --> 03:10:27,720
Got it.

3068
03:10:27,720 --> 03:10:28,720
I talked to hoody.

3069
03:10:28,720 --> 03:10:29,720
He said he's good with Timmy.

3070
03:10:29,720 --> 03:10:30,720
So I'd like to make a motion.

3071
03:10:30,720 --> 03:10:31,720
Reapoint Timmy.

3072
03:10:31,720 --> 03:10:32,720
Cameron.

3073
03:10:32,720 --> 03:10:33,720
Kill utility.

3074
03:10:33,720 --> 03:10:34,720
Okay.

3075
03:10:34,720 --> 03:10:35,720
We need a motion by district five.

3076
03:10:35,720 --> 03:10:37,720
Second by district three.

3077
03:10:38,720 --> 03:10:39,720
I just.

3078
03:10:39,720 --> 03:10:41,720
I would like to make sure that we reiterate to them.

3079
03:10:41,720 --> 03:10:43,720
And including their attorney.

3080
03:10:43,720 --> 03:10:44,720
And Gary.

3081
03:10:44,720 --> 03:10:46,720
I'll care if you have to send a letter.

3082
03:10:46,720 --> 03:10:47,720
There's a board.

3083
03:10:47,720 --> 03:10:48,720
There's a board of order.

3084
03:10:48,720 --> 03:10:49,720
From.

3085
03:10:49,720 --> 03:10:50,720
I don't remember if it's.

3086
03:10:50,720 --> 03:10:52,720
It's right before we got in.

3087
03:10:52,720 --> 03:10:56,720
That all these fire district appointments are to go through the EMA office.

3088
03:10:56,720 --> 03:10:57,720
Well, hoody did tell me.

3089
03:10:57,720 --> 03:10:58,720
Yeah.

3090
03:10:58,720 --> 03:10:59,720
I understand.

3091
03:10:59,720 --> 03:11:01,720
I just want to make sure they know that because they've done this in the past.

3092
03:11:01,720 --> 03:11:02,720
Their last appointment.

3093
03:11:02,720 --> 03:11:05,720
They did this and didn't catch my didn't catch anybody's attention.

3094
03:11:05,720 --> 03:11:06,720
Right.

3095
03:11:07,720 --> 03:11:08,720
I'll get with them.

3096
03:11:08,720 --> 03:11:10,720
We need to make sure that they understand the process.

3097
03:11:10,720 --> 03:11:11,720
Yes.

3098
03:11:11,720 --> 03:11:14,720
You know, since he's he's the fire district,

3099
03:11:14,720 --> 03:11:15,720
or whatever.

3100
03:11:15,720 --> 03:11:16,720
The fire coordinator.

3101
03:11:16,720 --> 03:11:19,720
I mean, all these appointments are to go through his office.

3102
03:11:19,720 --> 03:11:20,720
Yeah.

3103
03:11:20,720 --> 03:11:22,720
And then he brings it to us for approval.

3104
03:11:22,720 --> 03:11:23,720
Because he's going to have a few more.

3105
03:11:23,720 --> 03:11:24,720
Some of these other.

3106
03:11:24,720 --> 03:11:25,720
Yes.

3107
03:11:25,720 --> 03:11:26,720
But they don't come up for a day.

3108
03:11:26,720 --> 03:11:27,720
Yeah.

3109
03:11:27,720 --> 03:11:28,720
Make some today.

3110
03:11:28,720 --> 03:11:30,720
And there's a few more than some of the other ones.

3111
03:11:30,720 --> 03:11:31,720
That.

3112
03:11:31,720 --> 03:11:32,720
All right.

3113
03:11:32,720 --> 03:11:33,720
We've got a motion to second.

3114
03:11:33,720 --> 03:11:35,720
Any further discussion.

3115
03:11:35,720 --> 03:11:36,720
Being done.

3116
03:11:36,720 --> 03:11:37,720
District one.

3117
03:11:37,720 --> 03:11:38,720
Two.

3118
03:11:38,720 --> 03:11:39,720
Three.

3119
03:11:39,720 --> 03:11:40,720
Four.

3120
03:11:40,720 --> 03:11:41,720
And five.

3121
03:11:41,720 --> 03:11:43,720
Motion carries five.

3122
03:11:43,720 --> 03:11:44,720
Zero.

3123
03:11:44,720 --> 03:11:47,720
All right.

3124
03:11:47,720 --> 03:11:48,720
We have any.

3125
03:11:48,720 --> 03:11:49,720
Public comment.

3126
03:11:49,720 --> 03:11:52,720
Mr. Brian.

3127
03:11:52,720 --> 03:11:53,720
Good to have you here.

3128
03:11:53,720 --> 03:11:55,720
I thought you'd brave in the cold this morning.

3129
03:11:55,720 --> 03:11:56,720
All right.

3130
03:11:56,720 --> 03:11:59,720
I thought you'd brave in the cold this morning.

3131
03:11:59,720 --> 03:12:00,720
All right.

3132
03:12:00,720 --> 03:12:02,720
That's obviously walking every Sunday.

3133
03:12:02,720 --> 03:12:03,720
Walking to church.

3134
03:12:03,720 --> 03:12:04,720
Right.

3135
03:12:05,720 --> 03:12:06,720
All right.

3136
03:12:06,720 --> 03:12:08,720
I do have one thing.

3137
03:12:08,720 --> 03:12:10,720
And this is concerning the.

3138
03:12:10,720 --> 03:12:12,720
The issue with the zoning.

3139
03:12:12,720 --> 03:12:14,720
The zoning issue down there.

3140
03:12:14,720 --> 03:12:15,720
I know.

3141
03:12:15,720 --> 03:12:16,720
Yeah.

3142
03:12:16,720 --> 03:12:17,720
I'm.

3143
03:12:17,720 --> 03:12:19,720
So you've had a motion to consider executive session.

3144
03:12:19,720 --> 03:12:20,720
Yes.

3145
03:12:20,720 --> 03:12:21,720
