1
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:56,980
The call is meeting the order. It is nine o'clock, the fifth day of November. And our invocation this morning will be by Chapman, now we can end this, at seven day Adventist Church.

2
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:03,460
Not made it. All right. Anyone else want the privilege of opportunity to lead us in prayer?

3
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:07,880
Thank you.

4
00:01:09,460 --> 00:01:10,840
That is great.

5
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,700
Heavenly Father, we just thank you, Lord, for another day.

6
00:01:15,620 --> 00:01:21,360
To be here to discuss County Business Lord and as we do that, I just asked for guidance

7
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:28,400
Lord that you would just help us with every decision that is made today that you would just guide our thoughts

8
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,980
and our minds and that we would do everything

9
00:01:31,980 --> 00:01:33,680
that is pleasing in your sight, Lord.

10
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,860
And I just thank you for those that are here

11
00:01:35,860 --> 00:01:38,680
and that want to participate in this process.

12
00:01:39,140 --> 00:01:41,040
I ask that you be with those that protect us here

13
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,740
and around the world that you would just give them safety.

14
00:01:44,220 --> 00:01:47,480
We thank you, and we ask all this in Jesus' name.

15
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:47,920
Thank you.

16
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,040
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.

17
00:01:54,420 --> 00:01:54,920
Thank you.

18
00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:05,020
Thank you, everybody, for which to say one nation, I'm your God, and in this role, with liberty and justice for all.

19
00:02:05,540 --> 00:02:15,020
I'm going to text and slide. I pledge allegiance to the Texas One State, I'm your God, one in this role.

20
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,460
Dr. Bethlehem, would you please call the roll?

21
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:22,260
The Commissioner shall.

22
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:22,460
Here.

23
00:02:22,700 --> 00:02:24,480
Commissioner Engels Bay here.

24
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:25,680
Commissioner Smith.

25
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:27,140
Commissioner John.

26
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:27,660
Here.

27
00:02:27,980 --> 00:02:28,500
Jennifer Salad.

28
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:28,860
Here.

29
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:34,040
We will start with public comments.

30
00:02:36,310 --> 00:02:40,110
Those in the audience who have submitted a public participation witness form will now

31
00:02:40,110 --> 00:02:43,670
have three minutes to speak, a non-agenda related topics.

32
00:02:44,390 --> 00:02:47,510
Unfortunately, no action may be taken by the court during public comments,

33
00:02:47,730 --> 00:02:49,290
and we are expected not to respond.

34
00:02:50,010 --> 00:02:51,790
Any questions will be taken as rhetorical.

35
00:02:51,790 --> 00:02:57,830
Please, speak your comments and language civil and respectful, or you will forfeit the remainder of your time.

36
00:02:58,230 --> 00:03:03,610
In the spirit of respect, please silence your cell phones.

37
00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:08,060
I say that because it still doesn't always happen.

38
00:03:09,850 --> 00:03:10,870
It may still not.

39
00:03:11,210 --> 00:03:12,190
That's right.

40
00:03:13,390 --> 00:03:18,470
Anyway, public comments are first up is Mr. Dan Lyon.

41
00:03:24,090 --> 00:03:29,550
I'd like to tell Commissioner Schale that I got a message from one of his constituents.

42
00:03:30,770 --> 00:03:36,750
There's a giant top hole in the country of states near the church of Christ, which has become a safety hazard.

43
00:03:37,290 --> 00:03:39,710
With people swerving out of their lanes and going away.

44
00:03:41,170 --> 00:03:42,010
All right, good morning.

45
00:03:42,110 --> 00:03:44,890
I'd like to speak today about dysfunctional government.

46
00:03:45,210 --> 00:03:48,270
Water is some characteristic of a dysfunctional government.

47
00:03:48,850 --> 00:03:55,970
Number one is that they are accepted, they will try to convince you that they have your best interest in art.

48
00:03:56,570 --> 00:04:01,870
When all the while, they team up with bankers and construction companies to pursue their own interests.

49
00:04:02,850 --> 00:04:09,750
By the way, even though the citizens of the county have no real say of what happens in government, they are not forgotten.

50
00:04:10,190 --> 00:04:11,470
They get to pay the bill.

51
00:04:11,470 --> 00:04:20,810
Second characteristic of a dysfunctional government is when proposals are made, they are voted for unanimously over 95% of the time.

52
00:04:21,390 --> 00:04:35,010
Even though there may be no open collusion, there is an understanding that if you vote for my proposal all over the year, this time government always runs up the tremendous debt and puts a crushing burden on the government.

53
00:04:35,010 --> 00:04:44,510
The third characteristic is the government, which is more in tune with the wants and needs of the people they do business with than with their constituents.

54
00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:54,410
You can recognize this when you see a government constantly revising contracts to the advantage of the contractor and to the detriment of the people.

55
00:04:55,110 --> 00:04:59,810
The fourth characteristic is the government, which has no shame, and openly appoints

56
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,120
People with obvious conflicts, adventures, or where they can do great arm to the people they supposedly

57
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:12,540
serve. The fifth characteristic is a government which has no real oversight of its spending. It

58
00:05:12,540 --> 00:05:20,720
approves virtually every request for funding. By the departments, it is supposed to oversee. Judging

59
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:26,800
of commissioners, it is mildly that, hey, it's county government, it's completely dysfunctional. And

60
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,000
make a mockery of what founders of the country intended.

61
00:05:31,100 --> 00:05:34,060
All right, let's get into this first one.

62
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,840
We got West Mount Medi-Cash,

63
00:05:35,940 --> 00:05:37,660
on NEA 80-Bones.

64
00:05:38,260 --> 00:05:40,800
Advanced auto-parts, break-pand flanks,

65
00:05:42,340 --> 00:05:43,280
uh, Sheriff's Department.

66
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:45,860
And this is unbelievable.

67
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,520
$564.237.

68
00:05:49,820 --> 00:05:51,980
It's a good year auto-service center,

69
00:05:51,980 --> 00:05:53,780
tireders for the sheriff.

70
00:05:55,840 --> 00:06:02,760
$638.6GT distributors in corporate and a vast carrier for the share of 80 bucks, a

71
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:08,060
host for the share of $1.295, grand total 209.95.

72
00:06:08,260 --> 00:06:10,940
Sandmark is a Chrysler dollars cheap for AM.

73
00:06:11,700 --> 00:06:19,740
$2,11 Jeep break, share $116.99 in the laboratory for corporate and odor eliminated for

74
00:06:19,740 --> 00:06:22,220
I can see the trouble being able to share.

75
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:24,380
We're going to have $3.44.

76
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,820
I also hear it's a good scent killer if you want to go on it.

77
00:06:29,980 --> 00:06:32,120
Walmart, we are at the Christmas boat.

78
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,320
Those cup boats, miscellaneous, blinds, courthouse.

79
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,700
We've got five disbursements for $161.34.

80
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,080
Heart intercept, mowel take for collections office.

81
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:49,400
$7,400, this was the machine that was supposed to say it's mine.

82
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:54,960
Card Service Center, we got pins and pencils for the share.

83
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,400
134 dollars and 48 cents, or pins and pensets.

84
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,780
They give those things out for free and banks.

85
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:03,960
I've just got in.

86
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,360
That's a hot news flash.

87
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,600
Anyway, card service center sign, slash thanks for the share.

88
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:18,880
or $125, Barton Spring slash Edwards Aquifer Conservation District, Professional Service,

89
00:07:19,580 --> 00:07:28,520
Study of the Trinity Aquifers, $58,000, and that's probably first and second, but thank

90
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,500
you very much.

91
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,800
Thank you, Mr. Lyon.

92
00:07:34,170 --> 00:07:36,010
Next up, we have Mr. Gary Griffin.

93
00:07:47,210 --> 00:07:47,750
Good morning.

94
00:07:48,710 --> 00:07:53,770
seat if you know who I am, my background, I'm going to go that as I only have brief period.

95
00:07:54,430 --> 00:07:58,430
Most recently it was brought to my attention that Mr. Kennedy's office, from a proper

96
00:07:58,430 --> 00:08:03,110
unlawful action in constant right hand, at least my piece officer separation for service

97
00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:08,170
commonly referred to as an F5 through a public information request, action is clearly a violation

98
00:08:08,170 --> 00:08:13,170
of law, involving the several state statutes administrative codes as well as the directed

99
00:08:13,170 --> 00:08:16,210
violation of 552 of the open records act.

100
00:08:16,950 --> 00:08:18,110
That's protected information.

101
00:08:18,730 --> 00:08:22,050
Y'all might think that that's an inadvertent one time oversight.

102
00:08:22,230 --> 00:08:22,950
It is not.

103
00:08:23,770 --> 00:08:26,070
His office had previously released my training

104
00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:30,230
in a record unredacted with highly

105
00:08:30,230 --> 00:08:31,910
protected personal information.

106
00:08:33,090 --> 00:08:33,730
That's violation.

107
00:08:35,790 --> 00:08:38,830
There's not only times Mr. Kennedy's office

108
00:08:38,830 --> 00:08:41,070
has not lived up to a six-figure salary.

109
00:08:43,170 --> 00:08:49,270
Back in March of 17, I filed a felony case again involving Mark Jones,

110
00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:55,030
Mr. Kennedy, communicated, didn't think we had a case.

111
00:08:55,570 --> 00:08:59,230
I'm 30 years, 34 years, 10-year-piece officer.

112
00:08:59,730 --> 00:09:02,750
I know how to read the text of Pinnocko.

113
00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:10,250
Then, Mark, as you know, the case is buried as quickly as I filed,

114
00:09:10,930 --> 00:09:17,590
And involving a forgery of a governmental record, police identity, to Mr. James Cove.

115
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:26,160
It was an eye opener to me. It was just swept away to the trash.

116
00:09:28,740 --> 00:09:32,160
I can only come to the conclusion that involved a sitting county commissioner.

117
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,560
These acts are appalling to say the very least.

118
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,720
As members of the Courts, your pain miscalculated a very healthy salary.

119
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:47,720
And that would be okay if you're getting quality or adequate legal services, but for my

120
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,280
vantage point, that doesn't seem to be the case.

121
00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:57,460
Running block for service for a sitting commissioner covering up the illegal and proper

122
00:09:57,460 --> 00:09:59,380
Follow me and say it.

123
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,000
Say it very well.

124
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:15,420
At least to shame, at the most, some may as in unlawful act committed by member of the court. Anyway, back to my issue. Mark Kennedy, Jordan Pell, Deborah Anderson, repeatedly makes serious legal mistakes that could place tremendous by carries of that liability at the feet of your court.

125
00:10:15,420 --> 00:10:20,640
resulting in checks being issued with a lot of zeroes on the back of the number of the check.

126
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,340
Another improper misstep.

127
00:10:22,680 --> 00:10:25,640
Cost of hands in a lawful deputation appointments involving this court.

128
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,520
One would think Mr. Kennedy would be well-versed regarding 8601 on the text's government code.

129
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:32,740
But obviously not.

130
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,500
Cost of a hand illegally appointed debt because it was increasing three,

131
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:39,660
but not having this court prove the request appointment by name

132
00:10:39,660 --> 00:10:42,440
and direct conflict with that longstanding state statute.

133
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:49,440
I would add, that includes my sixth, unlawfully commissioned as Hayes County Deputy.

134
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,380
Matter of fact, the only pre-C3 Deputy Legal Point in my knowledge during my tenure

135
00:10:54,380 --> 00:10:56,160
pre-C3 is Alex Villobos.

136
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:02,340
I find in some one-proplication hands that court made a really big deal over Villobos,

137
00:11:02,500 --> 00:11:08,260
appointment strictly adhering to 8601, which ultimately resulted in approval by the court.

138
00:11:08,940 --> 00:11:11,160
But in all other cases during my tenure,

139
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,180
it seemed turned blind eye to the law regarding

140
00:11:13,180 --> 00:11:14,520
Deputy Constable Corners.

141
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,560
So we've seen Deputy Bill Lobos,

142
00:11:16,900 --> 00:11:18,460
is the only Deputy Constable illegal

143
00:11:18,460 --> 00:11:19,760
Lee Commission of Free Sing 3,

144
00:11:20,020 --> 00:11:22,080
at least to my knowledge as of June 15,

145
00:11:22,660 --> 00:11:23,720
which was my last day.

146
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,080
But as the same goes,

147
00:11:25,340 --> 00:11:26,740
it's always easier when you're spending

148
00:11:26,740 --> 00:11:27,940
somebody else's money,

149
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:29,420
instead of paying for mistakes

150
00:11:29,420 --> 00:11:31,120
of the person like Kennedy and his team

151
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,220
with taxpayer money.

152
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,540
Each of you might have a different viewpoint,

153
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,420
if paying for Kennedy's mistakes,

154
00:11:36,420 --> 00:11:38,540
We're having to come out of your own pockets.

155
00:11:39,220 --> 00:11:43,580
Debbie, as my commissioner, I expect the most from you.

156
00:11:43,940 --> 00:11:48,640
Not only are you my commissioner, as I am a constituent of precinct one, you've been a

157
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,560
piece officer as I have for a very long time, and active to this day as a Deputy Constable

158
00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:54,120
I would add.

159
00:11:54,780 --> 00:11:58,740
As I've already mentioned, the phrase right in just to each of you have the obligation to

160
00:11:58,740 --> 00:12:01,640
the citizens of Ace County to do that, just that.

161
00:12:01,780 --> 00:12:05,940
But in the case of Mr. Kennedy, this court turns a repetitive blind eye to his inadequate

162
00:12:05,940 --> 00:12:10,480
below average services. Each of you should look into the nearest mirror and say to the person

163
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,820
in the reflection, shame on you, because each of you are fighting miserably in regards to

164
00:12:15,820 --> 00:12:20,100
your oversight of the office of legal counsel. Will you please wrap up your... Yes, sir. In closing,

165
00:12:20,540 --> 00:12:25,120
the only positive point that he's unfortunate at acts is that the only person appears to be trying

166
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:31,020
to live up to the just and right principle as you judge the sir. But clearly, Judge, through my eyes,

167
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,400
you have a quite a bit of substandard improper behavior to correct on this court.

168
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:40,940
and I make that assessment as a past sitting three-term elected county precinct official. I was a constant.

169
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,920
Thank you. For your time, respect me. I would like to pass out a copy of my fair remarks

170
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,560
if I could approach the Dias and give a copy to him.

171
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:51,680
If you can give him to our bailiff, that'll be perfect.

172
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,020
Okay. Thank you, sir.

173
00:12:53,340 --> 00:12:54,360
Thank you very much.

174
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,820
And next up, we have Mr. Ferrell Ayers.

175
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,220
Commissioner's kind of just, thank you for allowing me this time.

176
00:13:15,860 --> 00:13:20,600
I came today to say something that I don't get an opportunity to say very often in this

177
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:26,280
commission's court and that is thank you. Thank you for your service. Thank you for

178
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:31,440
supporting us. The necessary means to be able to enforce the laws of Hades County. Thank

179
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,220
you for looking out and having the consideration as a general hold for what needs to be done

180
00:13:36,220 --> 00:13:41,320
here. We have people that come up here every week. I see a week in and week out and gripe

181
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,860
about how it should be, what we should do,

182
00:13:44,180 --> 00:13:47,400
but you had never put the rubber meets the road to do it.

183
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,300
I want to say thank you for coming up

184
00:13:49,300 --> 00:13:50,940
and taking this hit every time.

185
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,900
I would like to address an accusation about Constable Hill

186
00:13:54,900 --> 00:13:57,160
and not appointing any of his deputies legally.

187
00:13:57,700 --> 00:14:02,020
As a previous standing three term Constable myself,

188
00:14:03,060 --> 00:14:06,120
I know that every one of them was appointed by name

189
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,900
and was in their Z-mail and proof to back every one of them up.

190
00:14:10,540 --> 00:14:15,820
We've been through this. We know this. We know when someone who was with and is

191
00:14:15,820 --> 00:14:20,260
disgruntled, how they're going to attack. That's okay. I understand. I want to

192
00:14:20,260 --> 00:14:24,780
tell a little story real quick and then I'm going to be brief about it. I learned

193
00:14:24,780 --> 00:14:29,360
one thing. The person that made these accusations that we've recently heard

194
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,640
from, nobody knows better than I did because nobody put more trust in this

195
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,220
person than I did because I'm the one that brought him here. I'm the one that looked

196
00:14:38,220 --> 00:14:41,840
out for him and brought him under my wing when nobody in the state of Texas would touch

197
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,760
him because of the record that he had.

198
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:50,200
But I believe in power of people and I believe in people having a chance to do the right

199
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:50,780
thing.

200
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,200
And so I brought that person in and never had anything but high regard for that person.

201
00:14:57,540 --> 00:14:59,360
Professionally and as a person.

202
00:14:59,620 --> 00:14:59,940
And defend...

203
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,680
I'm on more than one occasion.

204
00:15:03,780 --> 00:15:08,600
But in the end, it reminded me of something that I'd forgotten all about

205
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:16,180
my 50 years as a amateur herpetologist. I used to, and still do, have a very much of an interest

206
00:15:16,180 --> 00:15:21,560
in reptiles and amphibians. And I've studied for years and years and fascinated by them. And one

207
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:30,340
thing that I know that when you are attacked by the very person that you help, it reminds me

208
00:15:30,340 --> 00:15:37,160
of a rattlesnake. You can toggle a rattlesnake, you can rescue a rattlesnake, you can bring

209
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,640
them in, you can feed them, but it's still a rattlesnake and they still bite you and still

210
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:49,580
try to harm you. And if I have personally experienced this by a former deputy that was

211
00:15:49,580 --> 00:15:52,500
boy by me and was employed by Constable Ray-Helm.

212
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,360
This deputy had gotten disgruntled.

213
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,220
He would fire off emails to other agencies out of line.

214
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,980
He did all kinds of things out of line.

215
00:16:01,140 --> 00:16:03,960
And finally, when he got cold, and he was come to a head,

216
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,640
he attacked me out of the clear blue with a bogus

217
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,660
right up that was clearly out of range.

218
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,400
And if that wasn't enough, took a right up there

219
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,820
by the way, was never approved by Constable Helm.

220
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,200
And let it be distributed outside.

221
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:25,620
Now we hear just heard about using violation of people's personal property.

222
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,840
I was violated by that.

223
00:16:28,220 --> 00:16:29,080
No big deal.

224
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:29,980
I'm a big boy.

225
00:16:29,980 --> 00:16:31,220
I can handle it.

226
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:32,860
I do say this.

227
00:16:34,060 --> 00:16:36,820
I believe in the system that Jala worked in.

228
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,000
I thank you for your service there.

229
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,800
And I know that the best way to be a public servant

230
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:48,480
and a good public servant is by being where the rubber meets the road and I want to come

231
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:54,540
and come in every single one of you here because each one of you do that on a daily basis.

232
00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:55,680
Thank you.

233
00:16:55,780 --> 00:16:56,320
Thank you, sir.

234
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:57,620
Appreciate it.

235

And I've been asked in case anyone's here for it.

236
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:02,540

00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,720
Please call the roll.

And I'll read it out loud now.

313
00:22:46,180 --> 00:22:49,880
Page County currently has a maximum jail capacity of 362,

314
00:22:50,300 --> 00:22:54,500
but jail standards would commence at 10% capacity to be left open,

315
00:22:54,660 --> 00:22:56,420

20, sub-1354, River Oaks of Wimperley, Unit 5, Blot 8A at 9A, Sub-Division, 2 Lons, Discussion

328
00:24:04,580 --> 00:24:07,500
and Possible Action to Approach the Humanitarian Plan.

329
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:08,280
Thank you.

330
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,100
Thank you.

331
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:09,520
Thank you.

332
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:10,340
Good morning.

333
00:24:10,340 --> 00:24:10,540
Good morning.

334
00:24:10,540 --> 00:24:10,680
Good morning.

335
00:24:10,980 --> 00:24:11,400
Good morning.

336
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:11,860
Good morning.

337
00:24:11,860 --> 00:24:12,120
Good morning.

338
00:24:13,260 --> 00:24:14,380
Good morning.

339
00:24:14,380 --> 00:24:18,400
an eight-lot proposed subdivision located long-range road 12 increase in 3.

340
00:24:19,120 --> 00:24:22,560
For this subdivision, water and wastewater will be serviced by the city of St. Marcus.

341
00:24:23,780 --> 00:24:27,920
This subdivision is being reviewed under an interlocal cooperation agreement with the city

342
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:33,280
of St. Marcus, and county staff has administratively approved this plant. However, the formal

343
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,140
acceptance of the fiscal security is required by commissioner's court action.

344
00:24:38,020 --> 00:24:43,760
Thank you Mr. Cheko. I'll make a motion to accept the letter credit number 5308 for

345
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,820
street and drainage improvements for Lissima phase 1 section to the amount of 1 million

346
00:24:47,820 --> 00:24:50,400
300,000, $516.00 and $0.00.

347
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:51,260
Second.

348
00:24:52,100 --> 00:24:54,120
We have a motion in a second. Any other comments?

349
00:24:55,460 --> 00:24:56,360
Please call the roll.

350
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:57,320
To make sure it's down.

351
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:57,940
Yes.

352
00:24:58,100 --> 00:24:58,620
To make sure it's down.

353
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,540
We'll speak. Yes. Question our shout. Yes.

354
00:25:02,540 --> 00:25:11,540
Yes. Number 20, Mr. Fajeckel. Yes, Judge. The River Oaks of Wimberley Unit 5. Lot E8A and 9A is a two-lot proposed subdivision.

355
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:17,000
Located off a wayside drive in pre-scene 3. For this subdivision, water will be accomplished by

356
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,480
individual private well, and wastewater will be accomplished by individual onsite sewage facilities.

357
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:27,380
This item has no variances and full staff recommendation. Thank you, Mr. Fajeckel. I'll make a motion to

358
00:25:27,380 --> 00:25:35,000
the preliminary plan for sub-1-3-5-4 river Oaks of Winnerly Unit 5-Lot 8-8 and 9-8 subdivision of 2-Lots.

359
00:25:35,420 --> 00:25:38,100
Second. Any other comments? Please call the roll.

360
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,380
Commissioner, you'll speak? Yes, Commissioner Jones. Yes.

361
00:25:43,780 --> 00:25:51,140
Yes. Judge the Senate. Yes, please open 21. 21. Discussion on possible action to offer

362
00:25:51,140 --> 00:26:02,660
of all case county parks on November 28th, 2019, December 25th, 2019, January 1st, 2020 and April 10th, 2021.

363
00:26:03,020 --> 00:26:07,140
Ms. Kremley, you're making a way to the podium, is that okay? Thank you.

364
00:26:08,380 --> 00:26:16,000
Good morning, Kremley. I'm asking for the Parks Department to be able to spend time with their families on the major holidays,

365
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:21,980
right now they're open seven days a week and they don't get to spend those major holidays.

366
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:27,500
So this is Thanksgiving Christmas Day, New Year's Day, and Easter Sunday. If they have

367
00:26:27,500 --> 00:26:33,500
any religious reasons that those holidays don't work for them, they won't work with them

368
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:39,440
to use some alternate days. But I don't believe we have any employees that fall into that category.

369
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,040
And then they would be open the other days that the county is closed.

370
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,960
Yes, ma'am. I'm sorry. Can you hear what was April 10th?

371
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:48,540
That's Easter.

372
00:26:48,860 --> 00:26:51,800
Easter. Okay. Any other comments?

373
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,080
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

374
00:26:56,540 --> 00:27:00,040
I'll make a motion to authorize the closure of all Hayes County Forests on November 28th,

375
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:04,700
December 25th, 2019, January 1st, 2020, and April 10th, 2020.

376
00:27:04,860 --> 00:27:07,000
Is that so? Motion to second. Please, call over.

377
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,020
Commissioner, are you going to speak? Yes.

378
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:09,380
Yes.

379
00:27:09,380 --> 00:27:21,760
Yes. Yes. Yes. Please open 22. 22. Discussion impossible actually to adopt a resolution to

380
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:29,780
cast 1,271 votes for Jennifer O'Kee, candidate for the hate Central and Grace of District

381
00:27:29,780 --> 00:27:36,400
Board of Directors. We have one person signed up to speak, Mr. Dan Lines.

382
00:27:39,050 --> 00:27:39,450
Thank you,

383
00:27:39,450 --> 00:27:48,070
to the CERA. However, here either last week or the week before and objecting to this

384
00:27:49,250 --> 00:27:54,910
appointing of Mesocane to the board.

385
00:27:57,610 --> 00:28:02,030
And of course the reason is obviously it's my number

386
00:28:02,030 --> 00:28:04,730
for characteristic of a dysfunctional government.

387
00:28:07,430 --> 00:28:11,850
You don't want to appoint people with obvious conflicts

388
00:28:11,850 --> 00:28:12,610
of interest.

389
00:28:14,250 --> 00:28:16,570
And like I told you,

390
00:28:18,910 --> 00:28:20,390
I was either last week or the week

391
00:28:20,390 --> 00:28:27,590
before, that the appraisal review board, well, when I was up

392
00:28:27,590 --> 00:28:31,690
there, they had the wife of the Republican chairman.

393
00:28:31,690 --> 00:28:42,730
She was there on the board, and they have frequently had realtors on that board, which

394
00:28:43,510 --> 00:28:49,890
is obviously a conflict of interest because the realtor makes their money by a percentage

395
00:28:49,890 --> 00:28:57,710
of what they sell property for, and therefore it's to their interest to have appraisals

396
00:28:57,710 --> 00:29:05,890
as high as possible, the same way with the tax assessor collector. How much more obvious

397
00:29:05,890 --> 00:29:14,650
can you make it that you're really just trying to put the people that pay taxes at a severe

398
00:29:14,650 --> 00:29:19,830
disadvantage? When they go up there, they're told that they're going to get fair and hearing.

399
00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:23,790
Those hearings are anything but fair, all guarantee.

400
00:29:25,050 --> 00:29:32,830
I've seen them call the person that's opposing you by their first names.

401
00:29:34,110 --> 00:29:41,530
And when they don't have any explanation of why they're praising your property at a certain amount,

402
00:29:41,530 --> 00:29:54,370
The ARB will accept that and they will also not allow you to put in your evidence.

403
00:29:55,010 --> 00:29:59,490
They will absolutely just throw your evidence out if they don't.

404
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,920
If they don't want to hear it. And that's kind of like what I get from me all, but it's works, because

405
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:15,120
it's money directly coming out of my pocket. All this to say that we don't need another biased person

406
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:26,740
on the board. And you all know that, you all know I'm right, but I fully expect y'all to go ahead and just

407
00:30:26,740 --> 00:30:31,240
because that's another characteristic of a dysfunctional government.

408
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:32,660
Thank you very much.

409
00:30:33,380 --> 00:30:34,700
Thank you, commissioners.

410
00:30:37,150 --> 00:30:38,690
This is new to me, of course.

411
00:30:39,790 --> 00:30:44,390
And the Hay Central Appraisal District sent me a letter to my office.

412
00:30:45,810 --> 00:30:50,530
And I have the list of nominees and number of votes to cast.

413
00:30:51,410 --> 00:30:58,610
And so I'm hoping Mr. Kennedy could shed some light on the strategy or the thought process behind putting all the votes.

414
00:30:58,610 --> 00:31:00,270
behind Miss O'Kane.

415
00:31:03,670 --> 00:31:07,390
Well, I think the strategy behind putting all the votes behind Miss O'Kane is that you want

416
00:31:07,390 --> 00:31:11,610
to make clear that that's your choice so you don't want to spread your votes out and

417
00:31:11,610 --> 00:31:17,650
dilute your choice with both O'Kane and in Mark and the only reason we wouldn't do that

418
00:31:17,650 --> 00:31:21,370
is if we ever got to the point where we had enough votes where we could put two people on there.

419
00:31:21,410 --> 00:31:26,870
That's what we did with the highest CISD did that about 10 or 12 years ago,

420
00:31:27,150 --> 00:31:29,910
but I don't believe we have enough votes to have a second person on there yet.

421
00:31:29,910 --> 00:31:37,670
we mark. Great. And according to this form, one easy example, for example, is the county seats

422
00:31:37,670 --> 00:31:45,050
mayor, Jane Houston, and she's on the list, and she's a county resident, but she for the

423
00:31:45,050 --> 00:31:55,970
city of San Francisco has, where it is, it, 478 votes. So I was hoping for a little clarity

424
00:31:55,970 --> 00:32:00,070
the better understanding, if we were to, as one option

425
00:32:00,610 --> 00:32:04,930
presents, divide our votes equally between the people on this list.

426
00:32:05,630 --> 00:32:08,610
Would that make Mayor Hussain's vote that much stronger

427
00:32:08,610 --> 00:32:10,590
because she carries a city or no?

428
00:32:10,730 --> 00:32:11,410
How does that work?

429
00:32:11,410 --> 00:32:14,490
The votes stay the same, no matter, I mean they have the same voting

430
00:32:14,490 --> 00:32:18,010
privileges, no matter how many votes they are appointed by.

431
00:32:18,470 --> 00:32:21,070
Like I said, the only advantage is if we get enough votes

432
00:32:21,070 --> 00:32:24,830
where we can have the second person, or sometimes we can share

433
00:32:24,830 --> 00:32:29,310
vote with an entity that didn't have enough. We wanted to shape off some of our votes.

434
00:32:29,470 --> 00:32:30,730
We can give them to another entity.

435
00:32:31,210 --> 00:32:31,890
I like this.

436
00:32:31,930 --> 00:32:33,410
The N-Bed to have that type of students.

437
00:32:33,810 --> 00:32:41,470
And how many votes are needed right now for a person to be on that or do you have that number?

438
00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:47,690
Yeah, I think it changes and I think you have to divide it by number of organizations

439
00:32:47,690 --> 00:32:49,650
by the number of votes everybody has.

440
00:32:50,810 --> 00:32:53,010
I'm starting to think back how we did it on the eggs.

441
00:32:56,150 --> 00:33:04,190
No, I just wondered, because I know that there's a certain amount of votes that are needed for a person to be appointed to that board and I didn't know

442
00:33:04,190 --> 00:33:14,310
The entire numbers needed or is it 15 hundred from that number Mr. Cady? Do you have an answer to that? I do not. I think there's only seven

443
00:33:16,010 --> 00:33:23,090
Seven members that are up for that so the other entities that all have one vote must nominate together

444
00:33:24,370 --> 00:33:26,310
If there's, you know, I don't know, 20 different.

445
00:33:27,350 --> 00:33:28,230
It's a real button list.

446
00:33:28,870 --> 00:33:30,410
So since there's only seven, they must.

447
00:33:30,410 --> 00:33:32,270
Some of those entities must choose.

448
00:33:32,290 --> 00:33:34,430
One candidate that they use their votes for.

449
00:33:34,950 --> 00:33:35,290
Two nominated.

450
00:33:36,030 --> 00:33:37,070
They're for the result.

451
00:33:37,230 --> 00:33:39,390
To me, seems like there's only, there's seven slots.

452
00:33:39,650 --> 00:33:40,410
And seven members of.

453
00:33:40,430 --> 00:33:41,530
So I don't even think it would matter.

454
00:33:42,830 --> 00:33:43,830
How you, this person, this person, this person.

455
00:33:43,830 --> 00:33:45,870
We try to say, I think it was, it took like a,

456
00:33:46,630 --> 00:33:47,890
to get you out here.

457
00:33:48,630 --> 00:33:49,370
Commissioner Smith.

458
00:33:49,690 --> 00:33:51,650
Well, yeah, I think there's, there's two points.

459
00:33:51,650 --> 00:33:54,430
to make number one, I think all of us got that letter

460
00:33:54,430 --> 00:33:56,770
in our office and so I went through the numbers

461
00:33:56,770 --> 00:33:59,090
whenever we got it, what last week I guess.

462
00:33:59,770 --> 00:34:01,930
And the two things I would say is, again,

463
00:34:02,030 --> 00:34:06,510
I made this point to the day, is that if we were to shave

464
00:34:07,090 --> 00:34:08,750
or the first one I would make it,

465
00:34:08,750 --> 00:34:09,770
is unlike a lot of counting,

466
00:34:10,250 --> 00:34:12,590
a lot of counting actually do pick someone

467
00:34:12,590 --> 00:34:14,330
who is not elected official

468
00:34:14,330 --> 00:34:17,990
or the county tax assessor collector to see.

469
00:34:18,890 --> 00:34:20,910
I kind of like the fact that we do here,

470
00:34:20,910 --> 00:34:25,510
I made this point when Mr. Lines made his comments the other day, because at the end of the day,

471
00:34:25,510 --> 00:34:32,010
if we do choose a counting while elected official, then it's the purview of the voters,

472
00:34:32,270 --> 00:34:34,630
they don't like what they're doing on that board.

473
00:34:34,750 --> 00:34:39,130
They can have a direct say in there and the outcome of that board, where in many other counties,

474
00:34:39,230 --> 00:34:40,150
they don't have a direct say.

475
00:34:40,230 --> 00:34:45,710
They have to depend on the actions of the court or the inaction of the court to do that.

476
00:34:46,190 --> 00:34:50,410
The other thing I would say is, when we look at this, we guarantee that we put all our votes

477
00:34:50,410 --> 00:34:57,650
it's one we guarantee that that one county lives the one who represents the entire county is on there.

478
00:34:57,770 --> 00:34:59,930
When we start dividing those votes out.

479
00:35:00,370 --> 00:35:09,970
It's very quickly, it can kind of very quickly apparent that, well, how do we divide out those if it takes 1,500 points, or 1,500 goes to get on the board.

480
00:35:10,730 --> 00:35:20,950
And those other 200 and however many foods to say that if I represent, in my precinct, I represent Sandmark, it's driftwood, dripping springs and cotta.

481
00:35:21,710 --> 00:35:27,790
How am I going to fairly divide between all those, whatever beauty is in my district, or my precinct,

482
00:35:28,650 --> 00:35:34,270
you know, you learn or meter while I, those, those, those, all those entities all should have

483
00:35:34,270 --> 00:35:38,770
to say and where those those go by pointing to counting what elected official who truly

484
00:35:38,770 --> 00:35:43,630
is supposed to be representing all of them, I think we, we save that effort and it addresses

485
00:35:43,630 --> 00:35:47,470
those goods, all right. So that's the reason I would say to put all of them towards Jeffrey.

486
00:35:47,790 --> 00:35:52,350
That's the only advantage is if we could get names of, I say, a private person. And this is just

487
00:35:52,350 --> 00:35:57,110
to the board of directors, this is not to, they don't, the review board is to completely different

488
00:35:57,110 --> 00:35:58,230
in this board entity.

489
00:35:58,710 --> 00:36:00,310
Would you like to, since you brought that up,

490
00:36:00,510 --> 00:36:03,410
just for the audience, describe those two differences

491
00:36:03,410 --> 00:36:04,290
for a quick second?

492
00:36:04,470 --> 00:36:05,510
Well, I keep an eye on that lost.

493
00:36:06,070 --> 00:36:07,750
Well, I don't know how, well, I'll give it.

494
00:36:07,750 --> 00:36:08,470
I'll give you a little bit.

495
00:36:08,910 --> 00:36:11,070
It's the, what we're pointing to is the board of directors,

496
00:36:11,250 --> 00:36:14,170
and they oversee the operation of the CAD,

497
00:36:15,310 --> 00:36:19,550
and their budget is their biggest directive, I believe.

498
00:36:20,550 --> 00:36:22,330
And we've been on the new board, as a point about it.

499
00:36:22,670 --> 00:36:25,350
We've been on the new board, each of those entities

500
00:36:25,350 --> 00:36:29,750
funds a percentage equal to the same, probably the same way as those votes, to the money

501
00:36:29,750 --> 00:36:33,830
that we pay for their operations. And so our board member is in charge of making sure

502
00:36:33,830 --> 00:36:38,770
that the money that the county puts into the board is spent wisely as far as operations

503
00:36:38,770 --> 00:36:42,450
to go. But they do not have anything to do with your appraisal reviews or deciding on

504
00:36:42,450 --> 00:36:44,270
appraisals or any decision making on that.

505
00:36:44,290 --> 00:36:48,130
Is a number of votes you get, the number we get is based on the amount of money that they

506
00:36:48,130 --> 00:36:52,810
collect for us. It's not by population or you think it's the amount of money that the value

507
00:36:52,810 --> 00:36:54,530
the property of the property of the property.

508
00:36:55,450 --> 00:36:57,110
So can we get a motion?

509
00:36:58,590 --> 00:36:58,750
Sure.

510
00:36:59,910 --> 00:37:00,710
Let me look at it.

511
00:37:01,550 --> 00:37:01,950
22.

512
00:37:05,010 --> 00:37:07,090
I'd like to move to adopt a resolution

513
00:37:07,090 --> 00:37:10,830
to cast stage counties, 1271 votes for Jennifer O'Kane,

514
00:37:11,110 --> 00:37:12,750
as our candidate for the Hase County Central

515
00:37:12,750 --> 00:37:14,090
of Brazil District Board of Directors.

516
00:37:14,650 --> 00:37:16,390
Second, we have a motion in the second.

517
00:37:16,610 --> 00:37:17,670
Is there any further discussion?

518
00:37:18,690 --> 00:37:20,130
Dr. Guy, that's please call the wrong.

519
00:37:22,650 --> 00:37:29,410
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Please open 23.

520
00:37:30,710 --> 00:37:38,250
Twenty-three. The stretch of the possible action to the work conference for IIT 2020 and BZ reputated

521
00:37:38,250 --> 00:37:44,550
All in the solid ways to check both of these issues in the central ways to raise the threshold.

522
00:37:45,350 --> 00:37:48,190
And signed up to speak, we have Mr. Dan Lyon.

523
00:37:51,130 --> 00:37:51,970
Thank you, Judge Nasser.

524
00:37:53,670 --> 00:38:03,430
Let me just say that any time anyone has any influence over other people and they have

525
00:38:03,430 --> 00:38:09,230
a conflict of interest, they should not be allowed to serve, but that's obvious to everybody,

526
00:38:10,110 --> 00:38:11,330
except for all of it anyway.

527
00:38:12,270 --> 00:38:19,070
On this agenda item, I believe that it was a week or two weeks ago, I got up and

528
00:38:19,070 --> 00:38:31,780
objected that, or I read a disbursement, where this company charged the government

529
00:38:31,780 --> 00:38:40,020
center, $1325, I believe, that's the right amount per month, per month, per the month

530
00:38:40,020 --> 00:38:50,660
September to dispose of their trash. Now that's well over 15,000 dollars a year. And I don't

531
00:38:50,660 --> 00:38:58,220
know, it's, you know, I'm not an expert in trash. I put up with a lot of it, but I don't

532
00:38:58,220 --> 00:39:07,820
know what it costs to dispose of. But that seems excessive. And I don't know if you're

533
00:39:07,820 --> 00:39:13,680
this stuff up for competitive bids or not, but I think we can easily find a better offer

534
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:22,500
than that. So this is the reason for my objection. And really, I shouldn't be, I shouldn't

535
00:39:22,500 --> 00:39:33,830
have to be doing this, getting up and overseeing or objecting to these things. We should have

536
00:39:34,730 --> 00:39:42,310
But the department said it oversees this stuff, I don't know, that's just another thing

537
00:39:42,310 --> 00:39:46,110
I'll add to my list of what a dysfunctional government does.

538
00:39:46,310 --> 00:39:47,310
But thank you very much.

539
00:39:47,570 --> 00:39:48,350
Thank you, Mr. Lyon.

540
00:39:49,990 --> 00:39:56,970
I believe the bid tabulation is in back up in the agenda, so this was a, he bid, the pricing

541
00:39:57,850 --> 00:39:59,610
for the two respondents.

542
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:15,400
This is in fact up for various halls at our transfer stations. I believe one company was successful in some of the sizes and then the other company was the low bid on glass, glass holding.

543
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:26,920
If there's any questions, I'll make a motion to award contracts for IFB 2020-B02, all in

544
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:31,200
of solid ways to text as deposal systems in central ways that we're recycling.

545
00:40:32,980 --> 00:40:34,720
Second, I have a motion in a second.

546
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:35,780
Are there any comments?

547
00:40:38,720 --> 00:40:39,240
Thank you.

548
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:44,840
And just for clarification, I'm glad it does go through the bid process and thank you Ms.

549
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:56,340
Thank you, Ms. Kremlin, for putting it through and I know the others office does a lot of adding to make sure that we are being as useful with our time and energy and resources, so thank you for that.

550
00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:06,340
Just wanted to make a clarification also. This is just for the transfer station and have anything to do with the government center.

551
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:07,220
Correct.

552
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,200
You have a motion in a second. Will you please call the roll.

553
00:41:12,940 --> 00:41:23,470
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, we please open 24.

554
00:41:24,830 --> 00:41:31,610
24 discussion on a squad to operating the county judge tax community of local agreement for a base County

555
00:41:31,610 --> 00:41:34,650
Continuously to us and police department

556
00:41:34,650 --> 00:41:38,390
I don't even call it as fingerprint identification system.

557
00:41:38,870 --> 00:41:41,310
If we engage them in the city of Austin.

558
00:41:45,250 --> 00:41:46,650
So move motion.

559
00:41:47,310 --> 00:41:48,170
So you can add a second.

560
00:41:48,490 --> 00:41:49,010
Any comments?

561
00:41:50,870 --> 00:41:51,830
Please call the roll.

562
00:41:51,970 --> 00:41:52,990
Commissioner, are you going to speak?

563
00:41:53,350 --> 00:41:53,670
Yes.

564
00:41:53,970 --> 00:41:54,410
Commissioner, shout.

565
00:41:54,810 --> 00:41:55,290
Yes.

566
00:41:56,630 --> 00:41:57,450
Commissioner, yes.

567
00:41:58,790 --> 00:41:58,970
Yes.

568
00:41:59,390 --> 00:41:59,470
Yes.

569
00:41:59,470 --> 00:42:02,110
I just want to thank the Sheriff's Department for working with the city.

570
00:42:02,270 --> 00:42:03,110
I'd like to say this.

571
00:42:04,450 --> 00:42:07,390
And thank you for coming in and being available

572
00:42:07,390 --> 00:42:12,550
for any comments or clarification. We appreciate your time. Please open number 25.

573
00:42:12,550 --> 00:42:19,590
There were 25 discussions of possible action to grant a variance for based county development regulations,

574
00:42:20,130 --> 00:42:27,870
Chapter 705, 725, and 735, and authorized development services staff to issue an element

575
00:42:27,870 --> 00:42:42,510
authorization for a grant for a program located at 20, 21 states and goes for a grant for a grant.

576
00:42:42,510 --> 00:42:49,870
And discussing this with staff, there's a very direct and real reason for it, and I'd like to take care of it a little bit.

577
00:42:50,110 --> 00:42:58,590
Definitely. So we were out on a site and we found out that somebody had undammed their

578
00:42:58,590 --> 00:43:04,690
damn that they had, that was in a tributary that directly flows to Hamilton Pool all the way to

579
00:43:04,690 --> 00:43:11,230
the Hamilton Pool. And we've received calls from property owners, Travis County, that people that care

580
00:43:11,230 --> 00:43:19,130
Hamilton pool and the United States Corps of Engineers. So it is a huge concern because right now

581
00:43:19,130 --> 00:43:25,730
it's not raining but if it rains, it's going to take all of that silt and debris and it's

582
00:43:25,730 --> 00:43:31,550
going to take it straight down to Hamilton pool, which I don't think City of Austin would really

583
00:43:31,550 --> 00:43:38,610
appreciate. I actually did bring Tom Pope and he was going to bring up the development authorization

584
00:43:38,610 --> 00:43:41,330
that we were going to recommend to the court.

585
00:43:41,510 --> 00:43:42,690
He is still here.

586
00:43:43,230 --> 00:43:43,890
Oh, yes.

587
00:43:44,370 --> 00:43:44,650
Sure.

588
00:43:44,850 --> 00:43:46,430
Mr. Paul, would you approach the podium?

589
00:43:49,300 --> 00:43:51,300
Tom Pope, of course, is our flood planning administrator.

590
00:43:51,860 --> 00:43:54,020
He has been with the county for 35 years.

591
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:55,780
He does this stuff.

592
00:43:56,340 --> 00:43:59,380
And I would just wanted him to come and talk in regards to the development

593
00:43:59,380 --> 00:44:01,760
authorizations, the way that it's being requested.

594
00:44:02,100 --> 00:44:03,060
Thank you, Mr. Pope.

595
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:10,900
The property owner there just went to work on their own without getting any permission

596
00:44:10,900 --> 00:44:13,940
from anybody, without getting the permit for most.

597
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:20,380
They've made a mass of this creek, and we're not doing none of my favor by issuing the

598
00:44:20,380 --> 00:44:20,620
permit.

599
00:44:20,820 --> 00:44:27,720
We're just trying to get the junk loose silk that he's created in the creek bed out of

600
00:44:27,720 --> 00:44:28,960
the floodplain.

601
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:36,680
Okay, so in case it does start running, and we're going to get permission from the U.S. Army

602
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:45,100
Corps of Engineers, or make them aware if we issue this, and he's still going to have to get

603
00:44:45,100 --> 00:44:55,080
engineering done on it before we completely approve it, just want them to temporarily clean

604
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,200
up the rest.

605
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,380
Any questions, commissioners?

606
00:44:59,280 --> 00:44:59,980
So it's true.

607
00:45:08,240 --> 00:45:19,020
So the development authorization would be to create a larger spillway for all of the drainage to go into, so that it doesn't keep flowing into the creek and then into Hamilton pool.

608
00:45:19,020 --> 00:45:27,920
Okay, that was going to be my question, so no more damn. He's not required than to build up that damn

609
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:34,700
many longer and he's just removing it from. So he's removing it and then he's going to be getting an

610
00:45:34,700 --> 00:45:43,140
engineered design to fix the damage that he is. Okay, yes. Okay, how big was this damn? Well, there's been a damn there

611
00:45:43,140 --> 00:45:50,440
for a long time. I mean, you need a little back on the maps and see it was probably built,

612
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:58,940
you know, at least 20 years ago, or something like that. And then it washed out.

613
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:05,260
And it was pretty small. And then it washed out. What this owner did was come in and make

614
00:46:05,260 --> 00:46:17,860
and then rebuild the spillway that was there, make it, made it wider, but if we authorize

615
00:46:17,860 --> 00:46:24,000
them to do this work, we're going to make a required that they make it even wider, so

616
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:31,320
to let that kind of deer blood go through without backing up water onto the back of water,

617
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:37,920
The immediate neighbor is the bread, the private bread that goes through sub-division.

618
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:43,540
People worried that he's going to back up water on the bread and who won't be able to get to their houses.

619
00:46:44,580 --> 00:46:49,140
But we'll make sure that he doesn't back up water.

620
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:51,960
Thank you.

621
00:46:52,060 --> 00:46:52,320
Commissioner?

622
00:46:54,220 --> 00:46:59,520
No other comments and with that I'd like to move that we grant a variance from Hayes County Development

623
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:05,940
regulations chapter 35, 725 and 735, and authorized development services staff to initiate

624
00:47:05,940 --> 00:47:11,300
development authorization permit for property located at 2021 Stage Coach Ranch Road.

625
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:12,080
Second.

626
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:13,340
We have a motion in a second.

627
00:47:13,500 --> 00:47:14,620
Are there any further comments?

628
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,080
Dr. Cardinus, please call the roll.

629
00:47:17,300 --> 00:47:18,400
Tomatoes, Nary Goldspin?

630
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:19,060
Yes.

631
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:20,200
Tomatoes, Nary Shell.

632
00:47:20,380 --> 00:47:20,980
Yes.

633
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:22,840
Tomatoes.

634
00:47:23,380 --> 00:47:23,520
Tomatoes.

635
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:23,760
Yes.

636
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:28,880
Tomatoes.

637
00:47:28,900 --> 00:47:29,500
Yes.

638
00:47:29,500 --> 00:47:32,040
27 and 28, will you please open those?

639
00:47:32,380 --> 00:47:38,700
26 consultation with Council and Deliberation regarding the purchase exchange lease or

640
00:47:38,700 --> 00:47:43,840
now with real property regarding parks and open space within case counties.

641
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,340
possible action make fall when it was before.

642
