Director Liftoff. [1:18] We have three minutes to present this session to first session regarding the County Law. [1:23] Second, a contract of the Board asking [1:30] what the plan is. [1:42] In [2:00] a moment, I will ask the people to join us for the pledge of the union. [2:04] I [2:11] was on a for the pledge of the union which we traditionally asked for. [2:14] A moment of silence following the pledge. [2:16] I said, I need more fit and a verse for you for being I. [2:19] We remember those who lost their lives, including those who are under the county, please lie to them. [2:29] The budget is to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. [2:35] One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for a public [2:58] in 5 p.m. [2:59] and moved into executive session at that time. [3:01] I'll ask County Council for free to do well to report the purpose of that executive session. [3:29] I read a public meeting notice at the meeting of the meeting at 5 p.m., but I'll use that again now. [3:34] This meeting is being held in the courts with the provisions of the public meeting. [3:37] We have inquiries that have been given by coasting throughout the year and your copy of the [3:42] advisory meeting. [3:42] It was on all the boards on the 1st and 2nd floor of page 3, 10, complex, building number [3:48] 1. [3:48] Formally regarded above the place in order for such announcements. [3:52] Copy of the change of this meeting with the patient with the person on the 1st and 2nd floor [3:57] of the page 3, 10, complex. [3:58] So everyone needs to be formally regarded and filed in the office of the 10 clerk on August [4:03] 24, 2026. [4:05] The status was posted as required by law on the official website of the county for legal [4:10] notices on August 24, 2026. [4:14] We now move to reports of the commissioner. [4:17] Each member of the board will sign liaison duties to various county departments and [4:21] boards in the commission. [4:23] And during this portion of the meeting, the board member provides highlights of current activities. [4:28] Since commissioner Rich is going to be a little bit late, he will start off with the commission [4:33] in order. [4:33] Okay, thank you, Deputy Director. [4:36] Ladies and gentlemen, I'm pleased to share a new initiative [4:40] aimed at making it easier for residents to access [4:44] important health care services. [4:46] The health department is partnering with Goh-Herdin [4:48] to launch the Road to Wellness Program, [4:51] providing free transportation to health related appointments [4:55] for a hundred new county residents who may have difficulty [4:57] getting to the care they need. [5:00] Transportation can be a significant barrier [5:02] to healthcare, particularly in a rural county like Hunter. [5:06] Road to wellness will help address that challenge [5:09] by providing free, reliable transportation, [5:12] reducing misdeployments and supporting residents [5:14] who require ongoing care or chronic disease management. [5:19] Residents can request one way or round trip transportation [5:23] for primary and specialty care, pharmacy visits, dental care, [5:28] mental health services, chronic disease management, [5:30] health department screens, preventative care, and other [5:35] potential health services, rights may be provided both within [5:39] and outside Hunterton County and are not limited to a [5:42] particular health care system or provider. The program is [5:46] funded through a rural health transformation grant ordered [5:49] to the Hunterton County Health Department by the New Jersey [5:52] Department of Health through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act [5:57] to enhance access to care in rural communities. [6:01] I want to thank our Health Department team [6:03] and go 100 and for developing this partnership [6:05] and helping remove barriers to care for our residents. [6:09] Anyone interested in learning more [6:11] or requesting transportation should contact [6:14] the Health Department's public health nursing division [6:19] 9088064570. [6:21] A resident's first ride request must be made [6:23] at least two weeks before the schedule appointment. [6:27] Turning to the Human Services, I also want to make residents aware of two upcoming opportunities [6:33] to learn more about Medicare ahead of this year's open enrollment period. [6:38] The state health insurance assistance program or SHIP will offer its popular understanding [6:44] Medicare program on two days in September. [6:47] Medicare open enrollment begins on October 15 and continues through December 7th [6:52] 27, 2026. The first session will be held Wednesday, September 16, from 4 to 6 p.m. in senior [7:00] center auditorium. The second will be Wednesday, September 23, from 1.30 to 3.30 p.m. at the [7:07] senior services annex, 1 Walter E. for Amble of Argo. Ships, state training volunteers, assist [7:15] individuals who are enrolled or preparing to enroll in Medicare with understanding the different [7:22] part to the program and identifying an appropriate cost-effective coverage. [7:27] Understanding Medicare provides a Medicare 101 overview and an opportunity [7:32] for residents to ask questions. These sessions do fill up quickly, so [7:36] interested residents are encouraged to register by calling 9-08-788-1361. I want to [7:44] thank our human services and senior services teams along with our shift [7:48] volunteers for helping our seniors and their families make informed decisions about their health care. [7:55] And finally, as Coli is on to the budget committee along with Commissioner Rich, [8:00] I'm especially pleased to see tonight's fire in MS grant programs, program awards on our agenda. [8:08] Earlier this year, Director Lanza identified this initiative as a priority at the beginning of the year [8:14] and I'm pleased that through our budget process, [8:17] we were able to dedicate $500,000 [8:21] in grant-front of the support of local first responders. [8:24] Our fire and EMS organizations are essential to the safety [8:27] of a re-huntering county community. [8:31] And we know the cost of equipment, training, operations, [8:35] and maintaining readiness continued to grow. [8:38] These grants are direct investment in the organization's [8:41] and volunteers who answer the call [8:44] when our residents need help most. [8:46] So that every firefighter EMT [8:49] and first responders serving 100 in the town [8:51] and thank you for answering the call. [8:54] Thank you for the sacrifices that you and your families make [8:58] and know that your county is proud to stand with you [9:01] and support the work you do every day. [9:04] And that concludes my remarks. [9:06] Thank you for that. [9:07] Thank you, Commissioner Maydor, [9:09] and then we'll go to Commissioner Rich. [9:10] Thank you, Deputy Director. [9:13] As we raise onto the sheriff's office, I want to remind the public about, [9:19] I would like [9:21] to remind the public about sheriff grounds upcoming ceremony commemorating the 25th anniversary [9:26] of September 11 terrorist attacks and honoring the 1500 county residents who lost their lives [9:31] that day. [9:32] The ceremony will take place on Friday, September 11th at 8.30 a.m. at the Holtop Preserve, located [9:38] at 214 Patrick O'Rode in American Township. [9:41] As part of the ceremony of permanent memorial will be dedicated [9:44] to pay tribute to the innocent Americans who lost their lives [9:47] on September 11th, 2001. [9:49] We are also honored to welcome Mark Azir, [9:52] as our special guest speaker, Mr. Azir, [9:54] a former mayor of hybrid, [9:56] with a member of the original World Trade Center [9:58] of DNA Identification Team [9:59] with the New York City Office of the Chief Medical Zane. [10:02] He was dispatched to the World Trade Center [10:04] on the morning of September 11th [10:06] and survived the attacks before going on to play a critical role in one of the most significant forensic identification efforts in American history. [10:14] We hope residents will join us as Hunter and County comes together to remember the 15 members of our own community who were lost and to ensure their memories and the sacrifices of so many others are never forgotten. [10:26] Next, as liaison to the Hunter and County Library, I'm also pleased to share that a major interior renovation is slated again at the North County branch. [10:33] The project will add two small group study rooms and a new community room while expanding and improving the child and the children's area. [10:40] These improvements will provide additional space for the library programming, community meetings, group study and remote work, helping this better serve the more than 150,000 visitors who use the branch each year. [10:51] the need for additional space is clear during the past 12 months alone the existing [10:57] meeting room was booked 703 times from nearly 2,000 hours. This project [11:02] built upon the other recent investments at the North County branch including [11:06] the redesign of the second floor and installation of the new generator. The [11:10] report has seen these improvements come to fruition as we continue investing in [11:14] and modernizing our libraries to meet the changing needs of today's residents. [11:19] Finally, I also want to express my sincere thanks to all of our first responders, thank you. [11:24] Who are with us tonight, as we award over $500,000 in community grants to our local fire and MS agencies. [11:31] Your hard work, dedication, and willingness to answer the call, all hours do not go unnoticed. [11:38] I'm pleased that we were able to secure this funding in this year, 2026, county budget, [11:43] to help our department acquire new equipment and safety gear while helping ease some of the financial [11:47] pressure spacing or volunteer and emergency service organizations. Most importantly, thank you [11:53] for what you do every day to protect our residents and our communities. Hunter County is very fortunate [11:59] to have such dedicated men and women serving on the front lines and we're proud to support you. [12:05] Chief Van, where do you at? I was looking for you. It's Chief Van. [12:10] Chief Fennel, that was easier. [12:13] Oh yeah, I'm sorry. [12:16] Only because I could thank you Chief. [12:19] It's sorry about that. [12:22] Who knew? [12:25] I don't know. [12:27] What's up? [12:31] It's a different company. [12:33] Deputy Director, thank you. [12:34] Appreciate it. [12:35] Thank you, Mr. Rich. [12:36] Mr. Solo. [12:37] Thank you, Deputy Director. [12:38] as Kolei is on to the Department of Economic Development and Tourism. [12:43] I'm very pleased to share some exciting national recognition for one of our 100 county communities. [12:48] Travel and leisure magazine has named French Town the best small arts and culture town in the United States for 2026. [12:57] Yes, I've been [13:04] recognizing its thriving arts and cultural scene independent businesses and unique riverfront character. [13:10] The article highlighted many of the businesses and attractions that make [13:15] French Town special, including Art Yard, the National Hotel, Thinbar, [13:20] French Town Bookshop, Wildford and Brewing, the French Town farmers market and [13:24] communities, many galleries, shops and studios. It also recognized the Delaware [13:29] and American Knapp Topap and opportunities for biking, walking and enjoying the [13:34] Delaware River. This national recognition is something French Town and all [13:38] 100 in County can be proud of and it reflects the residents, artists, entrepreneurs and small business owners who have worked together to make this community so special. [13:49] Tonight, I'm also pleased to share that Hunter in County will host its third annual Veterans Resource Fair on October 8, which is a Thursday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Raspberry's Bank of the Hall on State Highway 12 in Kingwood. [14:05] This free event is dedicated to connecting veterans and their families with the services, [14:10] programs, and resources they have earned through their service to our nation. [14:14] The Veterans Resource Fair is jointly sponsored by the Hunter and County Board of Commissioners, [14:19] the Hunter and County Chamber of Commerce and Congressman Tom Kane Jr., and will bring together [14:23] service providers and organizations throughout the region. [14:27] I encourage every veteran and military family and Hunter and County to join us on October [14:33] Whether you were looking for information about benefits, health and wellness services, employment opportunities, or simply want to connect with fellow veterans and those who serve them, we want to share that with you. [14:46] Please help spread the word and bring a fellow veteran who has come together to support those who has given so much to service to our nation. [14:53] And finally, as my colleagues had stated earlier, I would also like to thank both the first responders in attendance. [15:00] Your dedication to our communities, the sacrifices you make, and the time you spend away from your families in service of others, greatly appreciate it. Our fire and EMS organizations are there for our residents during some of the most difficult and critical moments of their lives, and it's important that the county continues to be for them there as well. To all of our first responders here tonight, thank you for answering the call, thank you for your service, and thank you, [15:30] to the families who stand with them as well. [15:33] We are proud to stand with you and I look forward [15:35] to supporting the grant resolution on tonight's agenda. [15:38] That concludes my remarks. [15:40] Thank you. [15:40] Thank you, Mr. Tauley. [15:42] So as an liaison to both the Hunter County Planning Department [15:44] and the Department of Public Safety [15:46] and one of the highlight two important issues [15:49] for the foot of the county's continued commitment [15:51] to working with our municipalities, [15:53] strengthening our communities [15:54] and improving the quality of life for our residents. [15:58] First, I want to remind the public [15:59] but that part of the county has a complete [16:01] a county-wide bicycle plan. [16:03] The residents will have three opportunities [16:05] to set them under their view to planning. [16:07] Merb out the findings and provide feedback [16:10] on the proposed bicycle routes and connections [16:12] throughout the county. [16:13] The bicycle plan funded through the New Jersey Transportation [16:16] planning authority grant. [16:18] If this is an opportunity to look at how [16:20] it would be better to connect communities through [16:22] a hundred counties in an easier-to-say-for [16:24] credits and visitors to each destination by bicycle. [16:27] So, these three community meetings are held on 1 September 9th, 68 PM at the Harlem [16:33] Township Municipal Building, 1 on September 14th, 68 at East Hamwell Township, Municipal [16:40] Building, and 1 September 23rd, 68 PM at the Red Township Municipal Building. [16:46] I encourage residents in municipal officials to cycle this and anyone interested in transportation [16:52] to attend 20 public fees. Public participation will help ensure the [16:58] splinter reflects the needs and priorities of the needs and the service. [17:03] Starting the public safety and follow up with Commissioner Richman and [17:07] George Connist, I have two please. Tonight, have your voting to award $500,000 in [17:13] grants running for a dedicated fire ANS first-use monitor throughout [17:17] on the county. When I served as commissioner of director of the years ago, I was proud to launch [17:22] our new era of partnership with Hunter the County Municipal Palace. This goal is to find [17:28] meaningful ways for the county government to work homes on a local meeting to help them tackle challenges [17:34] they face. To grant that partnership, we have been able to assist our municipalities with everything [17:40] from infrastructure, park improvements, supporting the law enforcement, public safety and tonight, [17:46] continue to partner trips supporting numerous fire and NMS organizations that are so critical [17:51] to the health and safety of our residents. We know that the cost associated with the [17:56] body and the essential service needs to grow, whether it's equipment, protective gear, [18:01] training, vehicles, or operation restrictions. These grants for opportunity for the county [18:07] to help process something that's costful, supporting the men and women who insert a call [18:14] All of our first responders here at the night, thank you for your service and dedication [18:19] for our encounter. [18:21] We appreciate everything we do for our communities, and we help these folks with all [18:24] offset some of the growing expenses for the organization's space and provide additional [18:29] resources to the continued New York report and that concludes my remarks. [18:35] So next up, this population portion of the region is always a pleasure to recognize [18:40] members of the Armed Community for their accomplishments. [18:44] The first population on tonight's agenda was presented [18:48] to the Village Inventory Rillivar, [18:51] kept the mall salad on Friday afternoon. [18:54] I'd like to thank economic development [18:57] and towards the direction more solid [18:59] for attending the ribbon-cutting arrangements [19:00] and preventing presenting this good salad [19:04] with this population on the epic future board. [19:07] It encouraged residents [19:09] the visitor to support the liquid monitoring drill and joint-solvering [19:13] in the chapter of the airport. [19:17] Now, you have the motion to prove the proclamation. [19:20] I'm off that motion. [19:22] I do it in a second. [19:23] Second. [19:24] And we'll call. [19:25] Ms. Allen? [19:26] Yes. [19:26] Mr. Edge? [19:27] Yes. [19:28] Mr. Randoran? [19:29] Yes. [19:30] Mr. Full? [19:31] Yes. [19:31] Mr. Randor. [19:33] Yes. [19:34] Thank you. [19:36] So the second proclamation on tonight's agenda. [19:38] and self-rights effective in the connection of standing at Riverside coffee and tea with the high-down clinic. [19:46] Stomping has contributed to vitality of the abandoned art and storage of the economy, [19:52] by all for the residents, and there's a very memorable destination, [19:56] the self-rights community, C&B, historic character, and small business spirit. [20:01] I believe in the standard, and I remember the standard, [20:04] from William Lewis tonight to accept the confirmation which might save you [20:09] worth of the podium. [20:11] I'll stay here for a while and come back. [20:14] Thank you for this announcement. [20:15] And what I'd like to be here tonight for all of you are just supported [20:18] with your questions in the comments. [20:20] Thank you for making the first response into the board for maybe 100 and happy [20:25] for one of the places where the data is received to be received. [20:28] Thank you. [20:29] Okay, so we have a motion. [20:32] I'll move it. [20:33] Could it be a second? [20:34] Second. [20:35] No complaints. [20:36] Mr. Van Doren? [20:37] Yes. [20:38] Mr. Rich? [20:38] Yes. [20:39] Mr. Allanzza? [20:42] Yes. [20:44] Okay. [20:45] We do have a confirmation that you have to come up and accept that. [20:47] Thank you. [20:48] I wish [21:31] the sheriff's statement made a preface for these all comments quite a public. [21:35] but for appreciating, consider by the members of the board [21:37] or the organization. [21:40] Commission, they have to see for different point of view [21:42] for opinion on some comments, [21:44] or they take actions that are did not in the line [21:47] with public comments and suggestions that are made [21:49] that in no way in case our process [21:51] is pressed here in on part of our deliberative process. [21:55] Public comment period is very much part of our democracy. [21:58] So we have two public comment section. [22:01] We have this one in two minutes. [22:04] And then we have one later to meet you. [22:06] You know, something's going to take more than two minutes that, you know, we have a long discussion and not be couple. [22:14] So at this point can we have any comments from the public, two minutes or less, please come up for the podium. [22:31] Cindy, well, we're just drawn west and west. [22:34] I was here at the Ron Harvey School, which is regarding the anthropology. [22:38] I think, and we're other people here, but we're all so other people getting to know you here and we'll spend a bit of the winter. [22:46] We can tell you that time that we've been hearing from you and we've been having. [22:51] We also told you people that we've been put on the agenda, so we've been working in the agendas and it doesn't come out. [22:59] Although I think here that the winter can be discussed or has already been discussed in the banking session. [23:05] So, you know, basically there had been some discussion over this bridge, and we reached out to [23:13] two different municipalities, about working together on some things. [23:18] I actually drew down, walked around the bridge, and on the bridge on Sunday. [23:25] So, look at it. [23:27] So, I think at this point, we're going to look to set up a meeting, [23:33] so that we can discuss the future of the bridge, where we need to go, how we can facilitate certain things, and maybe not other things. [23:45] But we'd like to set up a meeting with your group, and probably a group of 12 problems, complex and assuming, and go through lots to see what will happen in the beginning. [23:58] Great. Well, I can say that I was scared that we may be submitting some supplemental materials. [24:04] There we have a petition and there's multiple letters from community with people. [24:08] I think you might already see some separately from the package I have here. [24:13] Yeah, Mr. Taylor has also had an engineer prepare a proposed preliminary line. [24:19] Okay. [24:19] But there is a balance agreement, so I'm going to hand these up to you. [24:25] If [24:29] you want to give contact information to Rebecca that play can reach out for a second for me. [24:34] Okay, we should. [24:36] We should. [24:37] Rebecca. [24:38] What does that mean? [25:19] There are some messages [25:26] in the community. [25:28] The work [25:32] of Gallaudet County with [25:36] the state defense and, of course, is a playground because the effect is seen. [25:41] The effect is seen again. [25:43] For me? [25:43] The effect is seen from here. [25:44] Yeah, I think they're a little concerned of access to, of course, the sound of how the [25:51] greenators there are not any access to the values of our other students, you know, [25:55] say the requirements for continuing to remove this. So, all of those things are, like, [26:00] the defense and the law of us, we hope that you will consider this seriously a little important. [26:08] Thank you. [26:16] I'm state loud, so I can't hear them. [26:20] but we might need to just to record it. [26:25] Or just like you're not going to talk with Rachel tonight, [26:30] just so- [26:30] No, it's not on the agenda. [26:32] It's not on the agenda. [26:35] But you can make a public comment if you like it. [26:40] OK. [26:53] Please take your name and- [26:54] I'll probably leave a little, but I'm going to come to it. [26:57] Harvard and County is known nationally [27:00] for selection of self-awareness. [27:02] In fact, in 1995, Harvard and County was recognized [27:05] at having more of us registered than any other county in the nation. [27:10] In 2015, Mary and County was recognized by an athlete [27:15] in a work disorder, Nathan Holt, [27:18] as one of the counties, [27:20] one of the oldest counties in the United States, [27:23] that actually probably may contain the pages of many of those work [27:28] that were registered. [27:29] Mary and County engineering has been committed [27:35] to preserve our best known properties. [27:38] And out of the community, we come down [27:41] up and also forever and yet in bed, [27:44] to be having work with the conservative, the following bit is. [27:49] With 1878, maybe more, the 1900 log up on the middle [27:55] of the bridge, the 1980s and 1980s bridge in Oakland, [28:02] and the other two passengers in Land Harbor [28:05] in heaven, the 1885 Candid's overridden as a last-known hybrid. And last week, the [28:17] Cain overridden, oh, the stress hybrid broke, which although he's incorporated into a [28:23] modern world, the historic trust is the name preserved. In recent years, however, an [28:30] In my end, it seems much less committed to preserving the smaller, less visible, less [28:38] in their own pointest bridges in low traffic locations. [28:42] These small pointest bridges are hard to define in modern county and contribute to a [28:47] little bit of landscape, what have been disappearing at a long, long rate. [28:52] This isn't exemplified by the falling losses. [28:56] The great talent over here is both of us on work. [29:05] Can you finish up on the like, okay, and then there's several other bridges that are replaced with a bar and the structure is with all the scale. [29:16] That's the place and that's the goal of those. [29:18] I won't even have a last one. [29:20] Each one portion of the time that will, I can't run for it. [29:25] This is the process of human space. [29:29] Most of the H. Custer just would not have been injured [29:31] in the animal-dellable policy in the National Legislature, [29:34] but they contributed to the disorder and state [29:36] of a higher accounting. [29:38] The hand-purchase bridge to the small scale princess bridge, built in back and [29:44] founded by a lot of the bridge company. It is one of the few small scale [29:48] bridges that is, in fact, individually out in both the state and national [29:52] renter listening. As the best concern for the hand-purchase bridge, moving [30:13] Local government meeting. [30:22] Local government meeting. Local government meeting. [30:29] I'm introducing you in this existing location. [30:32] Thank you. [30:32] Any [30:40] question,night. [30:41] Thank you President Ted, [30:42] tonight I'm you can fire Department, [30:43] can I select that thank you in review board [30:45] for continues of border planning [30:48] county emergency services through [30:49] the Fire and [31:01] For background, our original request was for $35,000, which was the maximum level for the grant program. [31:09] In our original grant application, we included formal focus modeling approximately $41,000 [31:14] for repeatable and suppression package. [31:18] We were both prepared to absorb the remaining balance out of our operational budget. [31:23] Receiving the $12,500 means that the product only 70% of that project is unfunded. [31:28] but that's $29.00 difference is simply un-portals us to cover out of our standard operating budget. [31:35] Having this all for a basic situation where we've likely not been able to move forward with that purchase as the original intended. [31:41] Capital purchases as to vehicles and other major equipment present a unique challenge because we cannot purchase less than the original cost of doing [31:52] we can't like part of the vehicle. [31:54] This morning public safety director [31:56] made a communicating that more direction [31:58] would be forthcoming for already grand modification requests. [32:01] We would truly appreciate the opportunity [32:03] to re-allowk these funds so that we could put [32:08] this financial assistance to work [32:09] in our community with another project. [32:12] We sincerely appreciate the award intervals [32:14] to simply ensure that these funds can be put [32:16] to a meaningful and a meaningful use. [32:18] Think again in your time, [33:04] And one second, these are some advantages. [33:07] Every time we talk about nine public safety, [33:12] you help us get more members to get out on the public. [33:16] That is also part of this grant program. [33:18] And putting this out of the county is important. [33:21] Volunteerism, paid services, other services, [33:25] that fire and rescue is an important part of our community. [33:30] We can go and say that the county is supporting us [33:34] in the search for new members. [33:37] Every one of us needs new members. [33:40] Every one of us needs more paper buttons. [33:42] This is all he said and he will pull back. [33:44] So the more times we talk about it, [33:47] more times we miss the government's talk about [33:49] the more money that we give to support it, [33:52] the more money that we, [33:53] it's not just money, [33:55] the more support we give to them on one set, [33:57] just to put it in the programs, [33:58] the better the processes that we can live by, [34:01] The more technology you have, the better we are able to serve the community by not only [34:06] having the problem of tools, but also the matters that we need to do that. [34:10] So please continue to think upon, say, speak about it, talk about it, put it in your newsletters [34:17] I get. [34:18] The emails that they see, you might come as a strong space, all the time, it's a maybe a service [34:26] to the boss, that whole government support the boss who in need support. [34:34] Do you want to help her? [34:37] Two jabs, two. That's weird, man. [34:43] In Chuck Taylor, I was also here on the showroom [34:46] and I was talking about that macro-bridge. [34:50] I'm currently guy who says he's paying for a dinner [34:55] and then she gets... [34:57] didn't get back to the same thing. [34:59] I'm currently in the Navy, I'm doing the shuttle, so I am also now saying that I will take political [35:07] punishes up for the death of these girls. [35:10] I can't promise that it could be working for the horrible part of the trucks in that situation. [35:16] We are difficult to have a private group in New Jersey, especially if it's open to the general public. [35:23] that I would still stand up to my office to pay, [35:30] and I can manage to be there without a break. [35:35] Because I'm so historic, Carl's, [35:37] and some day in the future, [35:41] I'm not going up there to do so with his operations, [35:45] and you would not have to worry anything. [35:48] I only would like to be able to fight back [35:50] You are here. [35:52] Right, thank you. [35:56] Successors would like to give you. [36:03] Or Canada to all those people. [36:05] Yeah, thank you. [36:06] I mean, there's not really a lot of legalities, [36:08] a lot of different things to look at with something like that. [36:11] Yes, I'm not here. [36:12] I will wear that. [36:14] Thank you. [36:15] Anyone else? [36:17] OK. [36:18] Very good. [36:21] So, next we will go to the purchasing school. [36:25] Good luck. [36:27] What do we buy in the United States? [36:37] The resolution will run into the contract of the work. [36:40] The title will take plenty. [36:42] It has 20.26. [36:44] This is the package for its management. [36:46] We already go off course and hand in operations overseas. [36:49] And we have the motion. [36:53] Motion. [36:54] Second. [36:57] Yes.

[39:51] Next, we have counting in the trigger from Mark. [39:55] Thank you, Director. [39:57] I'm going to turn the program over for a great day. [39:59] Our director comes to say to you, [40:00] great event, tough task, the moment of the counting castle, [40:03] and share it with you and all the applications that we make. [40:07] Director, thank you for coming over. [40:09] Thank you all for your effort to great event. [40:11] I'm going to turn the program over. [40:16] Cool, I'm very excited to come back to all of it. [40:22] I think I'll start with some remarks about my hearing anniversary of the TROCO Starfighter [40:28] and then we'll proceed into the agenda with the grant. [40:34] September 1, 2021 will forever be a date mark on the history of the 100th County and the [40:39] Minds of our residents. [40:41] Five years ago today, TROCO Starfighter delivered extensive cash drop, [40:45] including several where we just dealt with [40:48] triggering more than 2,091 calls [40:50] in just a matter of hours requiring [40:52] hundreds of documented water rescues. [40:55] It left dozens of displaced residents [40:57] displaced in their homes and cost kind of [41:00] what infrastructure storm damage is [41:02] totaling more than $39 million dollars. [41:07] Most tragic from that day, [41:08] I just get quite a lot of lost [41:10] throughout the county due to flash flooding. [41:12] By the end of the day. [41:13] In turn, including in part [41:15] the United County residents, Jake Keller, Plumbington, and Mark Cable of Greenways. [41:22] In the five years' time, it worked consistently to further enhance our flood preparedness and response posture. [41:28] He received a $2 million e-mail as a radiation grant, reportedly the first time in the nation [41:34] to build the enhanced flood monitoring warning system with the USGS and its ultra-athletes [41:39] that was to be based on rates around the panel. [41:42] Our office of emergency management has led the development [41:45] of the county-wide school for arrest and program [41:46] consisting of 15 to 80 seats, [41:50] and dozens of first responders. [41:52] Viewed by NGDO, we have as one of, [41:54] if not, the most robust programs [41:56] at this time in the state. [41:57] Our staff ensures aligned training standards [41:59] and certifications across these departments [42:02] for negative response procedures, [42:04] and Saturdays and communication protocols. [42:07] Since I get to visit many pin counting responses, this belief response capability is also [42:13] the point of support of April's movement, Somerset, and Union War and Counties during [42:17] time and emergency. [42:18] It's estimated at level professionalism and high regard that supply to our team. [42:24] To support this program, the county has invested nearly $130,000 in homeless and hearing grants [42:29] and counting budget funds through the government's social order, rescue training programs, [42:33] standards, state-of-the-art radios, pleasant consequences of [42:37] frail, personal protection equipment, and incident [42:40] management for additional software. [42:42] Additionally, we continue to see through the [42:45] deployment of an enhanced $2-minute-dollar [42:47] impurity at this best system that facilitates more [42:51] efficient information sharing and response [42:52] formation between our non-profit communications [42:55] division, office of emergency management, and [42:57] frontline field-versa response. [43:02] Through the nature of our work, everything else has happened, and others, this is sort of a tragic event. [43:06] And our mission continues to be shaped by the mark that has been left on all of this. [43:10] We will continue to honor the memory of those losses and all those affected five years ago for our commitment to public safety. [43:17] And we will, in fact, never forget that the impact created as a pattern on our future. [43:26] But regardless of the grant, this grant is a priority for the work of county commissioners this year. [43:33] And as I stated earlier, it's a program that's available $500,000 for the 82nd [43:41] Archdiocese Department of the United States. [43:43] It's a fire protection to our communities. [43:46] There's constant notice of funding is remarkable, with 38 grant patients [43:50] committed to more than $1.2 million. [43:53] Understanding the difficult financial situation with many of our volunteers here, [43:57] required to invest organizations in state to find themselves in. [44:02] It was a priority to bring a view to the attempt to offer [44:05] and reward to each applicant. [44:07] The application process required agencies to provide documentation [44:10] of their organizational sustainability, [44:13] and affirmation from municipalities in which it serves [44:16] of a good standard for each. [44:19] As part of the review, the project will work [44:21] in the following categories. [44:23] People's apparatus, technology, communications equipment, [44:26] and self-intained breathing apparatus, [44:28] personal protective equipment, [44:30] EMS and patient care equipment, [44:32] and a miscellaneous category [44:33] with the complete type of self-directed [44:35] equipment, firefighting equipment components, et cetera. [44:42] As outlined in the resolution before you, [44:45] the program began to be available $500,000 [44:48] humanly to find 36 of our local agencies [44:52] as they're listed in the resolution. [44:57] Thank you. [45:01] Thank you for all you do for all the people on the panel without any guys to be in that situation many, many times. So, thank you. So, do we have a motion? Motion. Do we have a second? Second. [45:31] Now, I'd like to play all of the first responders from all over the country. [45:55] Good day to the state of southern France. [47:43] I don't know how to say, you killed a guy. [47:44] You should be a man, you should be a man. [47:47] You should be a man. [47:48] He should be a man. [47:48] He should be a man. [47:48] You should be a man. [47:48] We get this, we get this. [47:50] We roll into song boxes on my head. [47:52] Also, you want to hear it. [47:54] Ready? [47:55] So it's after the raid. [47:57] Come on, ready. [47:58] We're going to shoot the rock. [48:04] We're going to shoot the rock. [48:04] And then, add that, add that, add that. [48:06] My friend, follow me on the song. [48:08] I'll drive you more here. [48:09] I took my head in. [48:13] I took my head in. [48:18] What the fuck, oh, oh! [48:19] You got my head in. [48:21] Okay, [48:42] so I'm going to test you and move from the first couple of road. [48:46] Perfect, [49:03] just yeah. [50:24] Thank you. [50:35] Thank you. [50:36] Thanks again. [50:38] Thanks again for sharing this. [50:39] I'm sorry for working so much for the venture Patrick. [50:42] Thank you. [50:47] You're a straightforward guy. [50:48] And I did something to you. [50:50] Oh, yeah, okay. [50:53] Yeah. [50:53] Yeah. [50:55] Yeah. [50:56] Yeah. [50:57] Yeah. [50:58] Yeah. [50:58] Yeah. [51:00] Yeah. [51:34] I don't know. I don't know my glasses. [53:35] Okay, we're going to continue with our meeting, so now we've [53:56] got a point in the section [53:58] that's on the agenda. [54:00] So we have a motion to appoint Christian Berber as a member of the Italian Agricultural Development Board. [54:08] Oh my God. [54:10] Motion. [54:11] Second. [54:14] Mr. Rich? [54:15] Yes. [54:15] Ms. Hallway? [54:16] Yes. Mr. Van Olem? [54:17] Yes. [54:17] Mr. Cool? [54:18] Yes. [54:19] Mr. Lanza. [54:37] Mr. Van Doren? Yes. Ms. Alley? Yes. Mr. Gerrard? Yes. Mr. Fulm? Yes. Mr. Lorenzo? [54:45] Now we have a motion to re-appoint Dana O'Claire has a member to the local advisory committee on alcoholism and drug abuse. [54:54] I'll make that motion. [54:56] I'll second it. [54:58] Hello. [54:59] Ms. Oliver? [55:00] Yes, Mr. Van Doren? [55:01] Yes. [55:01] Mr. Rich? [55:02] Yes. [55:02] Mr. Bull? [55:03] Yes. [55:04] Mr. Landon? [55:05] Yes. [55:06] Okay, next up is the consent agenda. [55:08] All matters listed on our consent agenda are considered [55:11] and routine but on a time for evaluation. [55:14] We will be active on one motion on the web. [55:17] There will be a new separate discussion of the budget, [55:20] discussion of desire. [55:21] We will be removed from the consent agenda. [55:24] Considered a separate vote. [55:25] Does anyone need any removed from the consent agenda? [55:30] No, I'll move it as presented. [55:32] Okay, second. [55:33] Second. [55:34] Okay, we'll go. [55:35] Mr. Vandolin. Yes. Mr. Red. Yes. Mr. Cool. Yes. Mr. Landon. Good. Now we know our second public comment section we have in one of the minutes for the public comment. [55:53] Do we have any additional comments? Yes. All cards. [56:27] The people that are not so reliable, there are a couple of those calls that are on team as we increase in fire. [56:35] And it's going to continue. [56:37] And the increased accidents along 78% of the employer's border, especially if it's our self-right. [56:43] The AMAs and the content shift. [56:48] So we're losing increase in our services that we've been. [56:52] And they're looking for support from communities and colleagues [56:55] where, you know, it's always right for us as well. [56:59] So any support that you can continue to get it, [57:02] not just our community, but also, as they said, [57:05] you know, all the time and volunteering, [57:08] but also let the state level to, you know, [57:11] for it to continue. [57:12] We appreciate the opportunity to have the whole house [57:16] and your meetings with some folks [57:17] who are going to part before the worse. [57:19] We don't have the services [57:21] that's required for singing in our schools. [57:24] And again, in our first responder role [57:27] in this increase in self-priming [57:31] that our eyes hold on to a lot of the students. [57:34] They've never experienced self-priming [57:37] to ask for your opinions for them. [57:39] And I said, how do we speak the state level [57:42] to please fund them? [57:46] Thank you. [57:47] Thank you very much for giving us knowledge. [57:50] And what else? [57:56] Yeah, I'd like to just, I'm sorry that Director Lanzard and Join us, I know that we all [58:03] five of us had a thoroughly enjoyable time at this year's 4-H Niagara Cultural Fair. [58:09] The four of us up here tonight, last year we won this, but we got relegated to second place [58:15] because the 4-H kids out did us in goat milking and I know that Commissioner Solley and especially [58:24] Commissioner Cool couldn't see out of his glasses I think by the time we got done. Commissioner [58:31] Rich and I stayed more in the background and then it got less spray I guess we'll call [58:36] club. We didn't get a second place but I just again I want to thank the Fair Committee, the 4-H [58:42] community for, you know, a really successful event. I mean, a little bit of rain. I know on [58:48] Thursday, Shuffman's down early, but the weekend turned out to be beautiful and hopefully [58:53] they had had great attendance, so. [58:55] And in the common knowledge, we're basically there, they're mixed in a region of formality and so the Bureau is formality and we have the Bureau of formality and we have the Bureau of formality and that's why we do a lot of things we do here and towards that. [59:16] I look forward to the engagement of myself back in the day and so it's pretty great. [59:29] I was a director back then and I just wanted it, they left but I wanted to thank the first responders, they were part of our team. [59:40] We had phone calls multiple times a day. [59:44] Happened back then it was a labor day weekend. [59:46] We had to call our employees back to work on three day weekend. [59:50] They did it. [59:51] We had Lambertville dot hit horribly. [59:54] And I just remember we met here. [59:57] It took the county officials down to Lambertville. [59:59] And we had to call our employees back to work on three day weekend. [1:00:00] People heading mud, just pouring out of their homes, just with cold shovels because they were flat trying to shovel the mud out of their homes. So we told our facilities department. Go to Home Depot to get shovels for these people, and they had to go up to Hackettstam and bring them down. Maranelli's pizza gave us 50 pizzas so the people could eat. And then the furniture is in the road. We were worried that if something happened fire or ambulance needed to get through the roads, they were just putting their [1:00:29] couches and furniture out in the streets. So we had to call garbage companies and have them come and pick up the garbage, tons and tons of garbage. [1:00:39] So it was team effort. You really don't realize how much you have to work as a team until the emergency happens. [1:00:47] And I have to say I'm very, very proud of how employees are proud of volunteer emergency services and the team here. [1:00:56] Just thank you everyone my colleagues because it was really something that you don't know until it happens and and we worked like a well-oiled machine [1:01:32] Do I have a 4-3-2 down? [1:01:34] You do? [1:01:34] Second. [1:01:36] Okay, we'll figure out. [1:01:38] Don't be anyone's opposed. [1:01:40] I'm pretty nervous. [1:01:41] Take care, John. [1:01:43] Yeah. [1:01:44] Bye-bye. [1:01:45] Bye.
