1
00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:05,280
Call the meeting to order. Please rise and join me in the public meeting.

2
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:19,880
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, any of this is all, with liberty and justice for all.

3
00:00:27,430 --> 00:00:28,910
Good afternoon. Welcome everybody.

4
00:00:32,050 --> 00:00:39,610
Today is National Milk Chocolate Day, and it is also National Water Park Day.

5
00:00:39,610 --> 00:00:43,290
So, combine the two final water part and melt some chocolate.

6
00:00:45,390 --> 00:00:51,370
And if you were born on this day and also the way that is, they share a birthday, born in 1929,

7
00:00:52,490 --> 00:00:59,950
Jacqueline Kennedy O'Nesis, 1945, a Garfield cartoonist, Jim Davis,

8
00:01:01,570 --> 00:01:08,190
and born in 1866, Beatrice, Potter, author of Peter Rabbit,

9
00:01:10,370 --> 00:01:22,250
And a couple historic dates, events today, 1828, first the agricultural performance of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley's friends.

10
00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:24,910
And I wonder how many times that's been re-made.

11
00:01:27,790 --> 00:01:32,570
1851, first photograph of a total solar eclipse taken,

12
00:01:35,010 --> 00:01:39,610
1858, first use of fingerprints as a means of identification.

13
00:01:40,390 --> 00:01:48,330
For it in the practice, 2002, I remember this one, 9 coal miners are trapped in a flooded

14
00:01:48,330 --> 00:01:52,350
mine in Pennsylvania, and they are rescued after 77 hours underground.

15
00:01:56,180 --> 00:02:04,960
1945, Betty Lou Oliver survives, falling 75 stories in an Empire State building elevator

16
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:06,660
that she was operate.

17
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:20,040
Cable's broke due to a U.S. bomber plane crashing into the building and suffering the cables that held the elevator, and she considered the world record holder of being a survivor of something.

18
00:02:21,740 --> 00:02:34,240
And you might want to put this on your calendar on this day in July 28, 261, the 31st predicted passage of Hayley's comment.

19
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,480
So, tell me how it is.

20
00:02:42,780 --> 00:02:44,400
And with that, we'll move on to our agenda.

21
00:02:45,140 --> 00:02:46,560
Can he change his precious position?

22
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:47,940
Anybody?

23
00:02:49,820 --> 00:02:50,340
Okay, I don't know.

24
00:02:51,940 --> 00:02:52,980
Motion in a second.

25
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:54,220
All of it.

26
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:55,120
All of it.

27
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:55,440
All of it.

28
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:55,840
Post.

29
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,020
We have an agenda.

30
00:02:59,220 --> 00:03:00,580
Up next, public comments.

31
00:03:02,220 --> 00:03:03,020
A lot of people are around.

32
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,720
Anybody wish to speak public honest?

33
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,340
for

34
00:03:07,710 --> 00:03:10,150
more of I needed to sign up to be able to speak here,

35
00:03:10,770 --> 00:03:13,710
or this is to bring up issues at this point or not?

36
00:03:14,230 --> 00:03:14,410
Absolutely.

37
00:03:14,890 --> 00:03:18,470
State your name, and my name is Bony Sabiniak,

38
00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:20,430
I'm the one Stanley Rose, okay.

39
00:03:21,190 --> 00:03:26,250
And I am here to talk about the people who were elected

40
00:03:26,250 --> 00:03:31,290
or chosen to be election judges this coming primary

41
00:03:31,290 --> 00:03:33,070
and the general election,

42
00:03:34,170 --> 00:03:36,530
and because I have some concerns about it,

43
00:03:36,530 --> 00:03:44,250
because the law says that first you must go to the party, you must use the party list that sent you

44
00:03:45,770 --> 00:03:52,110
and so that's how they're chosen as from the party list and if you don't use the

45
00:03:52,110 --> 00:03:58,570
party list then you go to local party officials and line them and then as a last resource you would

46
00:03:58,570 --> 00:04:04,890
go and you would ask the general public to sign up and the reason that is done is because if you

47
00:04:04,890 --> 00:04:12,110
the general public and ask them for people, you do not know for sure what party they are.

48
00:04:12,350 --> 00:04:17,950
They could say that they are, I don't regret and they could be a Republican, or they could

49
00:04:17,950 --> 00:04:22,490
be a Republican and say they could be anything. Or they could go in and they could say that

50
00:04:22,490 --> 00:04:29,470
they're non-affiliated. And right now we have the people that are going to be working as election

51
00:04:29,470 --> 00:04:32,010
judges in Lake County.

52
00:04:34,850 --> 00:04:39,410
They are, they are all of the non-affiliated, are given like what

53
00:04:39,410 --> 00:04:45,770
would be considered Republican positions. Some of them have four election judges, so instead

54
00:04:45,770 --> 00:04:51,470
of making four Democrats, or two Democrats, two Republicans, they have three Democrats

55
00:04:51,470 --> 00:05:02,050
and one Republican, and there are no Republican head judges, and it seems like it's

56
00:05:02,050 --> 00:05:07,190
tilted very much in one direction. And so that's why I'm here because I know that the

57
00:05:07,190 --> 00:05:15,670
county commissioners have to approve those lists. And I was part of a group in 2020 that

58
00:05:15,670 --> 00:05:21,150
So with the State Institute, our county auditor, and the county commissioners for daily

59
00:05:21,150 --> 00:05:26,130
values that we're taking place at that time, I'm not saying anybody's doing anything

60
00:05:26,130 --> 00:05:31,930
illegal now, I'm just pointing out the fact that we would like things, you know, because

61
00:05:31,930 --> 00:05:39,590
the five people that's the other thing, five of the 33 people that are going to be working

62
00:05:39,590 --> 00:05:45,730
as either an election judge, the IMF sent a ballot for it, or can be called up to do those

63
00:05:45,730 --> 00:05:52,130
jobs, are signed up as being Republicans, but not one of the Republicans that have been

64
00:05:52,130 --> 00:05:57,330
either a chair of the Republican Party of Lake County have been long time Republicans

65
00:05:57,330 --> 00:06:05,950
or Minnesota GOP who has a list of Republicans who have ever signed up, those five people

66
00:06:05,950 --> 00:06:09,650
are no already found in Republican documents.

67
00:06:11,390 --> 00:06:15,810
So it just seems like a very ad set of circumstances.

68
00:06:15,970 --> 00:06:18,330
And so that's what I'm here to address today.

69
00:06:19,530 --> 00:06:22,950
I feel like there were multiple people

70
00:06:22,950 --> 00:06:25,490
who signed up to become Republican election judges,

71
00:06:26,090 --> 00:06:27,490
and they were not selected.

72
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:31,310
They, one person has always worked as an election judge

73
00:06:31,310 --> 00:06:33,590
and she was put in the on-call.

74
00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:44,810
And instead of hurt going as an election judge, they put in a not affiliated, and that's at the little red squirrel house, that's that bad bad polling place.

75
00:06:45,290 --> 00:06:55,410
So that is my concern, and it's a big concern, and I'd like to have that. I'd rest and I know that it can be the boss of right here.

76
00:07:02,470 --> 00:07:04,370
Well, thank you very much for your concerns.

77
00:07:04,650 --> 00:07:08,550
We're into something where we definitely want to look into and make sure that everybody

78
00:07:08,550 --> 00:07:12,630
feels comfortable with our election system and that we have the right people and the right

79
00:07:12,630 --> 00:07:13,010
businesses.

80
00:07:14,030 --> 00:07:20,490
Because I mean it really, I don't understand why there are three, three Democrats and one

81
00:07:20,490 --> 00:07:23,310
Republican at the Little Red School House.

82
00:07:23,630 --> 00:07:29,210
You know, especially when there are other, you know, I know case wants and fear and I know

83
00:07:29,210 --> 00:07:29,970
you signed up to

84
00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:49,620
She would be happy to work, you know, any place in Lake Columbia, I just found out that I am, and if I want to work in city, I haven't gotten all this stuff yet, but you're working for the city, you're working for the city, but you had signed up for anything. I'm just saying that, you know, I know that there are other people who signed up to do that. And again, Ronnie could address all of that.

85
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:54,580
Absolutely. We appreciate your bringing to our attention. Thank you very much.

86
00:07:54,580 --> 00:08:02,570
We still have public comments that anybody else wish to speak today.

87
00:08:04,900 --> 00:08:05,760
Tanya Broussik.

88
00:08:06,180 --> 00:08:08,980
I'm here representing Operation Volunteers for Veterans today,

89
00:08:09,140 --> 00:08:10,600
just to get the county board an update.

90
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,700
We have launched our website.

91
00:08:15,140 --> 00:08:16,640
So we officially have a website,

92
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,840
operationneforv.org.

93
00:08:21,340 --> 00:08:24,040
We are switching from Thursday, movie night

94
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,300
to Saturday, met name, movies.

95
00:08:26,300 --> 00:08:34,020
Again, that's hosted by Operation Volunteers for Veterans at the theater here in two harbors.

96
00:08:34,820 --> 00:08:39,940
It's the third Saturday of every month at 2 o'clock.

97
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,100
The August movie will be Grumpy Old Men.

98
00:08:44,660 --> 00:08:51,180
And veterans get in free to that and then the public tickets offset the veteran cost.

99
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,340
I've been working with Matthew at the theater for that.

100
00:08:54,340 --> 00:09:01,240
monthly copy for veterans only is at the theater again the first Thursday of every month

101
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:06,320
at 9 o'clock and that's just the chance for veterans to come in and socialize with other

102
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:14,880
veterans. We are working to get some medic care training sessions for veterans in the

103
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:21,460
county hopefully right around medic care sign-up time and then we will also be doing

104
00:09:21,460 --> 00:09:28,340
additional ID.news sessions. Last year was focused on getting veterans signed up with their ID.me accounts.

105
00:09:28,620 --> 00:09:35,920
This year it'll be talking about what the ID.me blogging can do for them because it's not just for their government benefits.

106
00:09:36,180 --> 00:09:48,640
It's for social security, some areas in Minnesota also use that ID.me and so it'll be training them and all of the components that they can log into with that ID.me.

107
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:57,560
And that's kind of where we're at right now, and I'm working with a couple different areas to find us a permanent physical location.

108
00:09:59,420 --> 00:10:04,020
So your website is Operation V4V?

109
00:10:05,420 --> 00:10:05,640
Yeah.

110
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,040
F-O-R.

111
00:10:07,180 --> 00:10:07,380
Nope.

112
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:08,640
V4.

113
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,340
The number 4.

114
00:10:12,540 --> 00:10:16,080
And we will also, and I'm going to be filing a

115
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,820
Does business as so we can start using the abbreviation be for me

116
00:10:21,500 --> 00:10:24,640
Because that's a lot shorter than volunteers for veterans

117
00:10:25,900 --> 00:10:28,280
That'll be filed hopefully next week

118
00:10:30,180 --> 00:10:36,370
We'll check it out. I think I'll that's all I have. Thank you

119
00:10:38,250 --> 00:10:40,630
I do have one other thing

120
00:10:40,630 --> 00:10:46,650
I can bring it up and as again as to do with elections and I don't know how much the county board can do

121
00:10:46,650 --> 00:10:54,530
I haven't been talking about the whole house who runs elections and there is a big discrimination,

122
00:10:55,030 --> 00:11:03,150
disparity between her and I as to what the law says concerning, concerning what has to be done on

123
00:11:03,150 --> 00:11:10,960
election night. The law is currently on the books in Minnesota. In three different places say that

124
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,140
that once the balancing is done, once the poles are closed,

125
00:11:16,020 --> 00:11:18,800
that the election judges move the box,

126
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,120
take the balance out and count them.

127
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,460
Now, I don't know how you can count the balance

128
00:11:24,460 --> 00:11:26,960
without actually counting them,

129
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:30,940
because she is now saying that the machine does the counting

130
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:34,020
instead of the election judges.

131
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,780
And that just changed this last election.

132
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,780
The last election, nobody was notified at the time.

133
00:11:39,780 --> 00:11:46,520
Nobody was told that the live chains that the law were to remove it, and we were just told

134
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,400
that we could not count the ballots, that you just take them off the machine, you just

135
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,360
put them in envelope, you see the envelope, and you sign the envelope.

136
00:11:53,960 --> 00:12:00,940
To me, I'm not signing anything, if I don't know what it is, but they're saying that the number

137
00:12:00,940 --> 00:12:06,860
that comes off of the machine is the number that you say is where the things can.

138
00:12:07,820 --> 00:12:13,000
Now, if that's the way the law changes, I don't have any problems.

139
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,940
If that's what the law says, I have no problem with it.

140
00:12:15,940 --> 00:12:18,880
But the law says that the values will be counted.

141
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:28,320
And additionally, the second law says that when you use, when you use body machines, that

142
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,420
as soon as the point is already shut the machine down, you take the box out and you count

143
00:12:33,420 --> 00:12:34,120
the values.

144
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:39,160
Now again, I don't know how you count the ballots, how the election does just count the ballots.

145
00:12:40,380 --> 00:12:41,620
Unless you count the ballots.

146
00:12:41,940 --> 00:12:44,840
I mean, it just, to me, it just makes sense.

147
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:53,540
And, you know, so why didn't you go from years and years of having this exact same law that says we count the ballots?

148
00:12:53,940 --> 00:13:02,840
To suddenly, without the law, changing at all, we are now being told, no, you don't know, you no longer need to count the ballots.

149
00:13:04,060 --> 00:13:13,760
So, that is a big deal of me, and I've been working with people down the Twin Cities who work on this stuff about this, and they're shocked, they're surprised.

150
00:13:14,380 --> 00:13:20,480
And at the same time I learned that in me apples, that's what they do, they don't come about it.

151
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,340
And so I said that this woman down on me apples, I said, you've been breaking the law for years.

152
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,840
Because the law says, and I wish I were to print it.

153
00:13:31,380 --> 00:13:33,260
I wasn't prepared to speak on that topic,

154
00:13:33,540 --> 00:13:37,360
but I could send anybody to the two statues.

155
00:13:37,740 --> 00:13:39,340
And as soon as I clearly say that,

156
00:13:40,140 --> 00:13:41,620
and one place it says,

157
00:13:41,820 --> 00:13:44,060
if they're talking and saying,

158
00:13:44,260 --> 00:13:46,980
well, the count is actually the number that comes off the machine.

159
00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:49,860
Later on, in that same statue, it says,

160
00:13:49,860 --> 00:13:52,680
it says the only people that can touch those balance.

161
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,240
Are the election judges?

162
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,740
So, why would we need to touch the ballots if all we're doing is putting them in an envelope,

163
00:13:59,580 --> 00:14:04,640
signing our name that that's how many ballots there are, you know, and we haven't counted them,

164
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,100
and then turned them in.

165
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:13,780
So, all of this just raises a little big red flag for a lot of people.

166
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:19,280
Okay. Well, I appreciate that too, and that's something that I'll have to,

167
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,120
or we'll have to definitely review and understand what the statute,

168
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,240
what the law is saying really different things.

169
00:14:25,900 --> 00:14:29,540
And I guess that I talked a little bit a couple times and she definitely

170
00:14:29,540 --> 00:14:33,980
sees it one way, you know, and I understand that.

171
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,660
I mean, people can look from two different directions and see totally different things.

172
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,580
I just didn't understand that I couldn't understand it, and that's my biggest thing.

173
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,960
I would like to understand it, you know, compared to what I'm seeing in the law.

174
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:47,620
Absolutely.

175
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,360
So thank you.

176
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:49,980
Thank you.

177
00:14:50,260 --> 00:14:51,340
Thank you.

178
00:14:51,340 --> 00:14:53,000
any other public comments.

179
00:14:56,090 --> 00:14:59,430
Thank you for the comments. We're going to move on on our agenda.

180
00:15:01,710 --> 00:15:08,210
Next up, we're going to talk about the sawmill, Joe. Don't. We'd like to start us off in the introductions, please.

181
00:15:08,990 --> 00:15:10,810
I'll tee it up and come to chair.

182
00:15:12,350 --> 00:15:23,870
Sawmill, don, is just southeast of Finland on a little more rain road, kind of precipitated by a phone call from Steve Wilson.

183
00:15:23,930 --> 00:15:27,610
I don't know how many years ago but probably more than I remember.

184
00:15:27,610 --> 00:15:42,010
So we've been dealing with it for a photo while I've been up to the particular cliff that is pretty spectacular as far as views, inland views, and like views.

185
00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:43,690
Matt and I have been there.

186
00:15:44,930 --> 00:15:49,650
We've walked the area as foresters looking at even unique characteristics.

187
00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:58,390
We've had a meeting with the Lands Committee, and now we're kind of here introducing it to the full board.

188
00:15:59,010 --> 00:16:02,850
The will be if we decide to go forward with it.

189
00:16:03,590 --> 00:16:07,070
There's some county board action that needs to be taken, so we'll kind of talk about that.

190
00:16:07,070 --> 00:16:09,650
And I'll let each one introduce themselves.

191
00:16:10,510 --> 00:16:11,230
So, go ahead.

192
00:16:11,830 --> 00:16:19,530
I am Amber Bathman, Ningen, I am Northeast Regional Specialist and Minnesota DNR with the Scientific and Naturalaries Program.

193
00:16:20,730 --> 00:16:25,570
I'm Calvier Barbel, and I am the Northeast Program Manager for Minnesota Atlanta Trust.

194
00:16:26,570 --> 00:16:30,330
I'm Amy Schwartz, I'm General Counsel at the Minnesota Atlanta Trust.

195
00:16:31,190 --> 00:16:37,690
And I'm Steve Wilson, along with my wife, Mary Shib, the owner is appropriately in the question that he mentioned.

196
00:16:40,250 --> 00:16:49,530
So this afternoon, we like to present to you a project proposal, essentially, for the

197
00:16:49,530 --> 00:16:51,850
Sonnell Dome, Scientific and Natural Area.

198
00:16:52,790 --> 00:16:57,010
So we're going to present to you kind of what we've been working on where we'd like this

199
00:16:57,010 --> 00:17:06,830
project to go give you an overview of the trails and public access that this will provide

200
00:17:07,490 --> 00:17:14,430
And what we've been doing and how long we think the whole project will take in its entirety.

201
00:17:15,470 --> 00:17:19,270
And then at the end, there would be a very happy to take all of your questions.

202
00:17:21,810 --> 00:17:24,390
So here's a map of Somaldome.

203
00:17:26,470 --> 00:17:31,570
So we have the handouts for you, if you would, would like one.

204
00:17:34,220 --> 00:17:46,800
As you can see, there are, well, the yellow outline, I show the, the, the, the, the,

205
00:17:46,860 --> 00:17:54,120
the, um, song no, don't highlands, um, by the diversity site. And within that, um, our is what

206
00:17:54,120 --> 00:18:01,280
where our, um, proposed scientific and natural area would be located. And within the scientific

207
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:10,840
in natural area, there are three different land types. There is a private land, C. Wilson,

208
00:18:11,060 --> 00:18:17,460
and Mary Shudds, private land. There is tax forfeit land and there is school trust land.

209
00:18:18,140 --> 00:18:25,900
And then on the corner of the science vegan natural area is a aquatic management area, which

210
00:18:25,900 --> 00:18:37,880
already owned by the DNR. So the, sorry, you can come, come, come, okay, there we go. So yeah,

211
00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:42,040
so there were three types, as you can see, or as you can see on your map, three types of

212
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:47,280
land, and we're here to talk to you actually about all three types, since all three

213
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,500
will be incorporated into the future SNA.

214
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,840
I'd like to let you know why we're interested in it.

215
00:18:55,980 --> 00:18:57,160
I'd like to put my face in the end over here.

216
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,100
That's what I mean.

217
00:18:59,700 --> 00:19:00,740
Thank you.

218
00:19:01,940 --> 00:19:02,380
All right.

219
00:19:02,860 --> 00:19:03,000
There.

220
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,020
That's all right.

221
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,500
So why we're interested as the DNR.

222
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,860
And then we're going to set a land trust and see if we're interested in this site.

223
00:19:11,580 --> 00:19:12,480
Several different reasons.

224
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:16,680
One is how we mentioned the biodiversity site.

225
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,420
So in the DNR, we described lands based sometimes on their biodiversity significance.

226
00:19:21,420 --> 00:19:23,840
and the site is a high bioresourcey significance.

227
00:19:24,580 --> 00:19:28,080
It gets that score from old growth forests that's found in this area

228
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:33,640
to many cliffs and slopes and associated plank communities in the rare species there.

229
00:19:33,860 --> 00:19:35,860
It is within the chart stream watershed.

230
00:19:36,060 --> 00:19:38,060
It's on no creek right there, on the photograph.

231
00:19:38,940 --> 00:19:41,700
And it's also a minimally fragmented as far as ecological growth.

232
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,320
It's pretty intact in that a lot of development in this area.

233
00:19:45,180 --> 00:19:46,520
It's also recreation destination.

234
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,100
There's already rock climbing there.

235
00:19:48,100 --> 00:19:53,300
fear, hiking trail goes through, snowing for it's burning, it's beautiful views, people

236
00:19:53,300 --> 00:19:58,440
like to visit this place. Even though the ecologically the landscape is not

237
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,780
fragmented, it has kind of a looted to the ownership of sort of fragmented. There's lots

238
00:20:03,780 --> 00:20:07,920
of different forties and different ownership going on here. We think that combining all

239
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,880
of that into one ownership would preserve ecologically but also preserve the public access

240
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:19,100
this site. I can speak personally from the DNR. We love this sort of public

241
00:20:19,100 --> 00:20:22,740
private partnerships and stuff that I've been involved in, the partnerships,

242
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,860
the projects that have these kinds of projects and partnerships.

243
00:20:26,540 --> 00:20:30,740
Typically, the most successful, so this is great in our book, having this sort of group

244
00:20:30,740 --> 00:20:36,100
come together and we think it will have lasting public impact to protect this area for the public.

245
00:20:37,620 --> 00:20:40,780
It's a little bit more about the scientific and naturally, so we're at a small part going

246
00:20:40,780 --> 00:20:45,600
in the DNR, so if you don't know who we are, you're probably in the company, this is right

247
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,280
from our website.

248
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,900
So what is a scientific and natural area?

249
00:20:48,120 --> 00:20:54,280
We are public lands, and I really like this a straight from our website, exceptional places,

250
00:20:54,780 --> 00:21:00,180
we're native plants and animals, flourish, we're rare species are protected, and we can know

251
00:21:00,180 --> 00:21:03,840
and study Minnesota's fascinating natural features and there's more information you can

252
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:04,700
find on our website.

253
00:21:05,460 --> 00:21:10,520
We are governed by statute, so the outdoor recreation act is where you'll find our statutes

254
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,660
and then a system rules that can govern what we do.

255
00:21:13,740 --> 00:21:15,080
It's the same act that you would find

256
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,840
this sort of information about more well-known state parts

257
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,820
of land, lakes, state parks, and trails,

258
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:21,900
wildlife management areas.

259
00:21:22,140 --> 00:21:24,020
We're all under that direct creation act.

260
00:21:24,940 --> 00:21:27,960
And what we tend to focus on, you can go to the next slide,

261
00:21:29,140 --> 00:21:32,680
are natural features and protecting those,

262
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,900
managing for them, and then making sure they're open to the public,

263
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,120
both for our just our enjoyment, education,

264
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:39,440
and also for research.

265
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:45,760
That statute lists the whole list of things that you can designate in S&A4, those things

266
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,800
include plant communities, or species of geologic features.

267
00:21:50,460 --> 00:21:53,060
We also govern with the kinds of things that you can do on an S&A.

268
00:21:53,220 --> 00:21:58,460
We tend to focus on low impact recreation, think of things like hiking, snow-shoing,

269
00:21:58,620 --> 00:22:02,100
road-watching wildlife, viewing photography, things like that.

270
00:22:02,220 --> 00:22:06,600
So that means typically, we'll put a little asterisk by that typically, we don't allow

271
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:11,220
things that are more extractive or we're taking a lot of infrastructure. Things like motorized

272
00:22:11,220 --> 00:22:15,880
recreation, camping, fishing and hunting, things like that. You probably find more like in a

273
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:22,460
state park. However, on this site, we've been thinking about this kind of special and unique,

274
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:28,240
what we would allow on a site. When we designate a scientific and natural area, what I mean by

275
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:29,720
As far as the back room comes together.

276
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:37,840
And it is signed by the Commissioner and there's a lot of things in that document, but it includes the public uses that we will allow and how we will allow them.

277
00:22:38,020 --> 00:22:45,640
So even though we typically get set up for an asterisk next to that, don't allow some things, we can allow them through this designation process.

278
00:22:46,020 --> 00:22:53,380
So on the site, what we're thinking we would allow is all hunting. It's open to hunting right now. We don't see a reason not to continue that.

279
00:22:53,380 --> 00:23:03,460
And in fact, hunting is not just a public use, it is also management tool, very important here in the Northwest, thinking of deer hunting, and making sure managing our deer herds on the North Shore.

280
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,180
Also existing on that, we'll mention a few times, a superior hiking trail currently goes through there.

281
00:23:09,180 --> 00:23:13,060
And so we would kind of ramp off of those in, that is something we've done before and other

282
00:23:13,060 --> 00:23:17,000
North Shore, scientific and natural areas, think of some point on Duluth and as a hiking

283
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,400
trail through it, still does, even though it's a mess today, and the existing and trails that come

284
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:27,540
into a planning process we would allow on that site. We know this is a rock-living destination.

285
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:33,060
Again, we're not interested in making that illegal. We would just discover those areas,

286
00:23:38,340 --> 00:23:38,620
or we've been

287
00:23:38,620 --> 00:23:42,830
work the rock climbing community to allow that in certain areas and bouldering as well.

288
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,800
Similarly, I'm going to skip the next one, but good on the picnic and we know picnic

289
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,600
happens. In fact, this area has the place called picnic rock. We want to make sure that if you are

290
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:57,120
enjoying the area on the trail, hot rock climbing that it is allowed, of course, you're going to have

291
00:23:57,120 --> 00:24:02,660
grab some lunch for your picnic lunch with you. And we're going to propose to keep the same rules

292
00:24:02,660 --> 00:24:07,040
of the superior hiking trail. Currently, has on the land and their rules throughout the trail are

293
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:12,740
that dogs are allowed on the older we would keep up with the trails, so I think that's my

294
00:24:12,740 --> 00:24:13,100
section.

295
00:24:13,420 --> 00:24:13,640
All right.

296
00:24:15,410 --> 00:24:15,590
Great.

297
00:24:15,770 --> 00:24:19,490
I'm going to take over and talk a little bit more about the three different land types

298
00:24:19,490 --> 00:24:22,770
that are in this complex that we're proposing to build.

299
00:24:23,370 --> 00:24:27,390
There's three sets of land types and each one has a different set of laws.

300
00:24:27,610 --> 00:24:31,450
So the first one I'm going to talk about is the Shed Wilson property, which is owned

301
00:24:31,450 --> 00:24:37,510
by Steve Wilson and his wife Mary Shed, that's the orange parcel on the map here.

302
00:24:38,470 --> 00:24:46,510
And the Minnesota land trust recently purchased a conservation easement from Stephen Mary just hot off the press at the very end of June.

303
00:24:47,090 --> 00:24:51,470
So Stephen Mary is still on the property, but we do have conservation easement restrictions on the property.

304
00:24:52,230 --> 00:25:00,670
And we used state grant money to do this cold water fisheries program, which helps protect our cold water streams along in our shore.

305
00:25:01,370 --> 00:25:06,110
This is a picture from the top of what I have heard is called Mary's Mountain.

306
00:25:07,410 --> 00:25:12,570
Mary's Sheds Mountain, so you can see some of the really incredible views from this property.

307
00:25:14,150 --> 00:25:22,670
And in many ways, the private land is sort of the easiest, and Stephen Mary also made it very easy to work on this land with them.

308
00:25:23,550 --> 00:25:28,690
So I'll turn to the tax forfeit land, so that's where the county is more involved, obviously

309
00:25:28,690 --> 00:25:30,730
tax forfeit land is managed by the county.

310
00:25:31,190 --> 00:25:35,410
So the two parcels that are in green with the arrows are the tax forfeit land.

311
00:25:35,770 --> 00:25:43,570
And I want to point out kind of that diagonal boundary that's on the parcel to the east.

312
00:25:45,130 --> 00:25:49,070
When we met with the Lake County staff and commissioners in January,

313
00:25:49,070 --> 00:25:54,890
we talked about kind of carving that part out, south of there, for land management, like

314
00:25:54,890 --> 00:25:58,930
County thought it would be easier for them to manage the land to the south if we followed

315
00:25:58,930 --> 00:26:03,970
kind of a ridge. So that's why that particular boundary isn't squared off, and this is just

316
00:26:03,970 --> 00:26:09,330
an approximation for now, but we could go out with a surveyor and get that exact, if the project moves

317
00:26:09,330 --> 00:26:16,710
forward. You all probably know much more about tax-forfeit lands than I do, but the little bit that I know

318
00:26:16,710 --> 00:26:23,750
is that tax forfeit lands can be sold directly to a private individual of a party through the land spill.

319
00:26:23,990 --> 00:26:28,550
Usually it would go to an auction, but the legislature can authorize direct sales,

320
00:26:28,970 --> 00:26:33,030
and the DNR does a big bill every year where they gather parcels from the counties,

321
00:26:33,710 --> 00:26:37,150
and then they have other land parcels that they included in that bill.

322
00:26:37,510 --> 00:26:43,210
So if this project goes forward, we would propose that the tax forfeit land,

323
00:26:43,210 --> 00:26:49,190
shown on this map would go in the 2027 Lansville, which would be in January of 2027.

324
00:26:50,210 --> 00:26:53,610
And this is the just reference to this year's Lansville.

325
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,640
I'm going to talk about school trust land briefly, which is complicated.

326
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:04,520
Again, many of you probably know more about school trust land than I do, but when Minnesota

327
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:10,200
became a state, the federal government set aside section 16 and 36 of every township

328
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,200
for the benefit of the schools in the state of Minnesota.

329
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:19,860
Many of those sections have been sold off, but they're still about two and a half million acres of school trust land.

330
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,800
Back to this for a second.

331
00:27:24,540 --> 00:27:28,020
So the middle section that's yellow on your map is school trust land.

332
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:34,580
And of all the laws governing land school trust land is the most restrictive and in some ways the most complicated.

333
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:42,340
So the state of Minnesota cannot sell that land directly to any party they have to go through an option process

334
00:27:42,340 --> 00:27:47,100
or there are other tools. And in this, it's since the DNR would be willing to pursue

335
00:27:47,660 --> 00:27:53,980
condemnation. And so they basically kind of condemn the school trust status and convert it

336
00:27:53,980 --> 00:27:58,680
to regular state land. They pay the school trust, the permanent fund, the appraised amount,

337
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,560
and that changes the designation. I give that mercy rate. Okay.

338
00:28:06,140 --> 00:28:07,380
Great. The last thing I want to

339
00:28:07,380 --> 00:28:13,320
touch on before I hand it back is payment in lieu of taxes. So another concept I'm sure all the

340
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:18,720
measures are familiar with. We did ask the DNR to give us an estimate for the tax

341
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:23,060
forfeit land, what the payment in lieu of taxes would be, and what the rate would be.

342
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,140
So one of the advantages of having a partner involved is if we are able to purchase the

343
00:28:28,140 --> 00:28:33,900
tax forfeit land and then turn it over to the DNR, it would be at that highest-piltrate that

344
00:28:33,900 --> 00:28:41,780
acquired land status. And so the current estimate is about $2,700 a year for that-the-piltz

345
00:28:41,780 --> 00:28:49,040
And again, just for the tax forfeit land, that doesn't include the school trust land or the private land if that were to be part of the complex.

346
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,040
And those numbers would change a little bit, but that classification should stay the same.

347
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,420
So, I'll pause there and turn it over to Kathy.

348
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:04,520
Right, so one of the really special parts of this project is access that it provides.

349
00:29:06,300 --> 00:29:12,500
So, some of them obviously is a part of this appear hiking trail, but Mary's Mountain is not.

350
00:29:13,340 --> 00:29:27,000
And while some of them you can see valley to the west of this appear hiking trail, Mary's Mountain, as you saw in the previous picture, you can see Lake Superior and all of its glory.

351
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:35,220
So we would work with Lake County and we actually have gone out and that's small dotted line

352
00:29:35,220 --> 00:29:45,040
at the north part of what we propose as the SNA is where we want to determine what the best

353
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:50,920
views were the easiest way to get through the area and then back down off of Mary's mountain.

354
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:59,960
So, it would provide the public with another place on a superior hiker hiking trail to see a great view of...

355
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:09,560
And just a nice little story, all off of, you know, one of the nicest trails in the state.

356
00:30:10,020 --> 00:30:29,980
Additionally, part of Stephen Mary's hope with their easement and providing the land for an SNA is giving the county access to, to manage all of the tax-war filth land that lives.

357
00:30:29,980 --> 00:30:37,540
is to the east of the property or the south east of the property that currently is inaccessible

358
00:30:37,540 --> 00:30:43,340
right now for the county for management purposes. So with the road that's even very

359
00:30:43,340 --> 00:30:50,960
proposed, allowing through their property to allow the county access, then the county can

360
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:58,900
all of this export that we had, that's, that's to the Southeast, and it's approximately 700

361
00:30:58,900 --> 00:31:08,200
acres that would be then accessible for the county foresters to go in and do management activities.

362
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:19,100
I will wrap up here quick with some timeline and milestones. So this slide shows what is completed

363
00:31:19,100 --> 00:31:24,300
to date starting with the meeting we had in January with Lake County staff and a few commissioners.

364
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:38,220
We've also worked through our board and through some of the DNR processes and the Minnesota Land Trust is also secured a private donation to help with the acquisition of the tax forefit land.

365
00:31:39,580 --> 00:31:44,220
This slide shows where we are today with the yellow being where we are right here in this moment.

366
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,020
Just starting the process talking with the full board about this project.

367
00:31:48,020 --> 00:31:54,320
If it were to go forward, we would start working on the details of the acquisition in the fall and winter.

368
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,420
The lands bill, the DNR would work on the process to condemn the property,

369
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:05,120
or condemn the school trust land, and we would continue working through the process.

370
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:13,300
As Amber Beth mentioned, there's a formal designation process in order that the commissioner signs where they talk about all the uses that would be allowed in the SNA.

371
00:32:13,300 --> 00:32:20,980
And so my estimation for when this would all be complete is 2030, so save the date for a giant ribbon cutting party.

372
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:27,780
So it would take a while, but it's a lot of moving pieces with, you know, three different land types and different laws and processes.

373
00:32:29,020 --> 00:32:35,340
But we're very excited to be presenting this to you today, and then Steve Wilson, I don't know if you want to share anything.

374
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:48,640
Sure, first, this is probably out of order, Commissioner Sweet, but I'm on offer motion to the board that in the future you've recognized Dark Shop with it.

375
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:49,980
It's no doubt that-

376
00:32:49,980 --> 00:32:50,280
With John.

377
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,780
Yeah, the mood is to the beginnings of this project.

378
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,980
It's actually a little laugh of it.

379
00:33:01,780 --> 00:33:03,360
We have to go back 46 years.

380
00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:04,160
It's an 1980.

381
00:33:05,020 --> 00:33:06,860
When Mary and I were just, Christy Mary,

382
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,760
we just bought property in Isabella where we lived now.

383
00:33:10,060 --> 00:33:12,120
And we're planning to build on it.

384
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,700
And we got wind of this auction of parcels in Lake County.

385
00:33:15,700 --> 00:33:20,520
and we have to look at the map and we saw this person down here and we looked at the top

386
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:26,040
of the map and, wow, that's pretty interesting. You know, we could see it was the top one

387
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:33,840
of the mountains. Looks like it had a cliff. So we took a day off and came down and made the

388
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:38,640
rather arduous trip up the mountain and doing so we were going through some very interesting

389
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:45,100
plant communities like up to an old roof, white cedar, which is rare across the state, even

390
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:50,500
in the north shore where it's most common, is not common at all. And so we're impressed by that.

391
00:33:50,620 --> 00:33:55,960
But then when we got to the top of the mountain, we were the standing on the precipice of a cliff

392
00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:02,920
and had this spectacular view up and down the shore of Lake Superior. And we just looked at each other

393
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:09,340
You think, oh, and I'm thinking, yeah, this does not belong in private ownership.

394
00:34:10,460 --> 00:34:14,120
Somebody with enough money would eventually come along and push your road up to the top

395
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:19,300
and build a mega mansion up there, and that'll be ruined the view for everybody else from

396
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:25,440
down below, but the nine access to the public, to what we were experiencing that moment, which

397
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:26,400
was pretty special.

398
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,620
And so, life and everything, we didn't have any plans.

399
00:34:31,620 --> 00:34:35,800
I mean, I mean, I heard a scientific and astral program out of you thinking to exist it down.

400
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,160
And we didn't know how this might be predictable.

401
00:34:39,220 --> 00:34:45,040
We went to the auction and we raised, you know, offered a bit of a $100

402
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:45,740
little minimum.

403
00:34:45,940 --> 00:34:48,320
And it was ours when we walked out of there, kind of stunned.

404
00:34:48,460 --> 00:34:49,460
What have we just done?

405
00:34:50,420 --> 00:34:53,200
And then life intervenes, fast forward,

406
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:56,400
35 years.

407
00:34:57,460 --> 00:35:00,680
And the county came knocking on our door and asked about it and he's going to cross

408
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:05,580
are private breed to access that land lock, counting land that you didn't have access to.

409
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,000
And so a discussion is due, there's a under Tom Martinson,

410
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,640
and you know the stars

411
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:13,360
didn't in the line.

412
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,000
And so it kind of got set aside.

413
00:35:16,860 --> 00:35:20,740
And then fast forward another ten years and brings this close to this moment.

414
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,140
And the stars seem to be a line.

415
00:35:24,140 --> 00:35:28,280
And I think what's happened is the interest of the various landowners who are lying.

416
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:33,760
From our standpoint, we've been able to protect the native high quality native plant

417
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:42,540
communities already through the assistance in a sort of land trust, and because of the access

418
00:35:42,540 --> 00:35:47,360
that we're building into the easement, the public is going to have, well, number one, there's

419
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:52,280
a parking lot that was allowed for native staff, it's on even better.

420
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,580
Here is the easement right here that was built in the easement.

421
00:36:02,780 --> 00:36:06,020
I mean, the road easement that was built in our concentration easement.

422
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,000
And the county is identified this narrow sliver of county land here, which isn't really

423
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,700
good for anything else, to put a parking lot right there, which would be ideal.

424
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,960
And then the public could access this.

425
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:27,220
And then, I think Joe could be build up here and we've allowed for this hiking trail on our land through the Eastmond.

426
00:36:28,260 --> 00:36:39,780
So, the other objective is that ours besides the Planned Community Protection, the public access would come to be if this project moves forward.

427
00:36:41,140 --> 00:36:46,900
Kathy talked about Minnesota mantras, interest, the county interest have been alluded to.

428
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:52,340
You're in cash and hand for parcels of our engineering in cash, not out of the PLT, which would continue.

429
00:36:53,220 --> 00:36:57,940
I'll leave you to have the sale price to the county budget, which would be very helpful.

430
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,960
The access to all these county land down here for forced management that you don't have now,

431
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:09,280
the ability to sustainably manage those for forest products, and it comes to the county.

432
00:37:10,340 --> 00:37:16,420
And then the natural area, amenity, I like to call this, which Lake County residents

433
00:37:16,420 --> 00:37:21,860
will be able to enjoy, but also visitors from all sides of the area, which this is going

434
00:37:21,860 --> 00:37:22,580
to be in a tract.

435
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:27,420
You know, people are going to put this on there to visit this when they come up to North Shore,

436
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,860
So that's going to be just a benefit of the way it comes.

437
00:37:31,170 --> 00:37:40,050
And then I remember Beth talked about, you know, all the scientific and actuary, and just a line. And I can't tell you how unusual this is.

438
00:37:40,650 --> 00:37:48,930
For these multi-honorship landscapes, scale projects, I used to be a member of best job for 22 years, before she so ably took it over.

439
00:37:49,430 --> 00:37:59,370
And I tried several of these type landscapes scale, multi-honorship projects. One I worked in for over 10 years, and never got any of them to the finish line.

440
00:37:59,370 --> 00:38:06,170
So, this is pretty remarkable that this project has gotten as far as, cautiously, not

441
00:38:06,170 --> 00:38:08,650
kind of wood, looking good for a year out now.

442
00:38:10,370 --> 00:38:18,530
I want to thank the county for their support to this point, especially the County Forestry

443
00:38:18,530 --> 00:38:23,130
Department, in my position I had the opportunity to work with County Land Forest

444
00:38:23,130 --> 00:38:30,110
department's cross and northern part of the state. And Lake County's department is second

445
00:38:30,110 --> 00:38:37,870
and on in terms of professionalism, accessibility to the public, open-mindedness and just

446
00:38:37,870 --> 00:38:43,430
getting the job done. So, cool those to you on your department. That's been great to work

447
00:38:43,430 --> 00:38:50,930
with you. I hope the next time we meet here, there'll be a vote to approve this project and move

448
00:38:50,930 --> 00:38:56,710
forward. I hope that's not too far down the road because Mary and I don't have too many

449
00:38:56,710 --> 00:39:02,670
fast forward. It's left enough. Especially 35 years or 10 years or given the last year,

450
00:39:02,790 --> 00:39:07,490
I'm not even sure I want to coach in terms of years. If you could meet at that timeline,

451
00:39:08,010 --> 00:39:14,630
a little bit Amy would be great. So I look forward to coming back for that meeting and thank you for

452
00:39:14,630 --> 00:39:15,390
hearing now.

453
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:26,160
Here are presentation. Question two reports.

454
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:30,940
The one question I had on that last

455
00:39:30,940 --> 00:39:40,640
that we have on our sheet here, next there. What is the blue destination on there?

456
00:39:41,220 --> 00:39:46,800
So the land that's in blue is owned by the state of Minnesota and it's a aquatic management

457
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:54,080
area. I never recognize the acronym. Yeah. So I think there's trout stream fishing a lot

458
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,460
on the corridor and then they manage that area.

459
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:57,000
It's from the peak.

460
00:39:57,340 --> 00:39:57,760
This is the doesn't it?

461
00:39:59,000 --> 00:39:59,160
Yeah.

462
00:39:59,540 --> 00:40:00,520
Fisheries manage it.

463
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,920
So it wouldn't be part of the SNA because it's managed by different parts of the DNR.

464
00:40:07,380 --> 00:40:09,880
But we wanted to show it as kind of part of the whole complex.

465
00:40:11,900 --> 00:40:13,820
Isn't it the yellow light all the way around?

466
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,080
That doesn't make the...

467
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,120
Hey, for me I'm trying.

468
00:40:19,180 --> 00:40:20,720
It's the biodiversity site.

469
00:40:20,720 --> 00:40:24,360
So our biological survey, when they're out surveying,

470
00:40:24,700 --> 00:40:26,740
the biology, when instead of creating these areas,

471
00:40:28,740 --> 00:40:31,640
it's just a map that doesn't, not doesn't, excuse me,

472
00:40:31,780 --> 00:40:35,740
denote sites of high outstanding or moderate biodiversity,

473
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,140
so the difference is that the high biodiversity

474
00:40:38,140 --> 00:40:39,980
is in the clicking statewide.

475
00:40:42,740 --> 00:40:43,620
It's something you can watch later.

476
00:40:49,620 --> 00:40:52,980
I mentioned that yesterday, I had never heard 140 mentioned

477
00:40:52,980 --> 00:40:55,220
this, but one hour or another, other ones in the area,

478
00:40:56,420 --> 00:40:59,780
And I've got some materials I've been in many wants to show is a thing that I battle

479
00:40:59,780 --> 00:41:01,700
all the way to things on our works like, too.

480
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,640
Yeah, Lake County itself has three scientific natural areas, the closest one to here

481
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:11,880
would be Ayolos Beach between us, Laura Claythouse and Newspirate Ball State Park, ten acres

482
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,840
like, probably been there, driven by, might not even know how to do this, I didn't get

483
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:15,980
it.

484
00:41:16,340 --> 00:41:17,340
So when

485
00:41:24,060 --> 00:41:25,600
you ever stay away, can we go?

486
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,880
How do 170 statewide?

487
00:41:29,770 --> 00:41:30,970
Very well.

488
00:41:32,090 --> 00:41:38,850
Normally, I'm not big fan of all of this stuff, you know, but this is a one project that I can get behind.

489
00:41:39,450 --> 00:41:47,250
The discussions we've had that certainly sold the significance of this area and why it should be preserved for the public.

490
00:41:47,810 --> 00:41:54,650
And I do appreciate you dubbing off that corner and leaving that in the counties.

491
00:41:54,650 --> 00:41:57,570
It's a jurisdiction for managing,

492
00:41:59,610 --> 00:42:01,730
I figured I was going to have to screen that several

493
00:42:01,730 --> 00:42:06,470
times before we got to the approval part and I appreciate the fact that it's already

494
00:42:06,470 --> 00:42:07,790
documented there.

495
00:42:13,930 --> 00:42:14,870
Well, thank you very much.

496
00:42:14,950 --> 00:42:16,110
Appreciate you taking the time.

497
00:42:16,710 --> 00:42:20,910
Let's just do us a little bit more work ahead.

498
00:42:21,810 --> 00:42:22,850
Thank you for having us.

499
00:42:23,250 --> 00:42:23,930
All right.

500
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,000
and you'll update the learner session.

501
00:42:38,860 --> 00:42:39,440
Break your arm.

502
00:42:39,620 --> 00:42:40,540
Here's running board.

503
00:42:40,820 --> 00:42:42,460
I don't know if I'll break it.

504
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:47,660
You're going to be wanting the next copy of Bible.

505
00:42:48,060 --> 00:42:50,060
There we have that doesn't have one.

506
00:42:50,220 --> 00:42:51,760
I don't know if I'll break it.

507
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:52,700
I'm going to try to tell you what it's like.

508
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,680
It's like a movie scene.

509
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:00,880
You can do it.

510
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,060
You can do it.

511
00:43:01,060 --> 00:43:03,660
Do you need one for record for record for record for the world?

512
00:43:08,380 --> 00:43:16,260
I don't know if this is going to be as interesting as looking at statistics of sales and foreclosures and stuff like that.

513
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,700
Take a quick run through trying to take care of that kind of stuff.

514
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:36,120
This is basically a continuing learning of statistics and analysis of the assessment process, but basically since I think about 20, 2010 we started a lot of it.

515
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,240
It's 2015, whatever fits into

516
00:43:41,290 --> 00:43:42,890
the formatting on different pages.

517
00:43:43,150 --> 00:43:45,550
We cut stuff off from 10 to 16 years.

518
00:43:46,150 --> 00:43:53,530
But the first stop, which is going to be an section one and an A letter A, I just

519
00:43:53,530 --> 00:44:00,730
call it, this is our most recent sales study ratio telling you what our median sales ratio

520
00:44:00,730 --> 00:44:04,110
was for each jurisdiction from the county, including the county overall.

521
00:44:04,110 --> 00:44:06,270
They'll all been highlighted in yellow.

522
00:44:06,690 --> 00:44:11,470
I'll see if you can draw rate to the main focus of this past year sales study.

523
00:44:12,410 --> 00:44:20,330
We shoot for 97% meaning the typical sale of 100,000 out of property will have assessed at 97,000 dollars.

524
00:44:21,230 --> 00:44:22,850
It's considered the sales ratio.

525
00:44:23,150 --> 00:44:24,110
That's our goal.

526
00:44:24,950 --> 00:44:28,210
Obviously we can never hit 97 right on the nose.

527
00:44:28,950 --> 00:44:32,030
Sometimes when you start forcing those numbers, you actually occurred to your assessments.

528
00:44:32,030 --> 00:44:37,310
So we try to stick with it a percent or two of the 96 or 7 percent guideline.

529
00:44:37,690 --> 00:44:44,490
We have, we'll be several years history, I believe that is 2015 all the way back to 2010.

530
00:44:44,810 --> 00:44:47,430
There are 2020, 25 back to 2010.

531
00:44:47,650 --> 00:44:50,870
Every bit of data I could get on the sales ratio is included in this.

532
00:44:50,890 --> 00:44:54,270
This is the only one we don't cut in the out-on.

533
00:44:56,650 --> 00:44:59,970
We also have our state, historical state.

534
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:09,860
We have more of a necessary equalization reports, and as I said every year, this is basically the Department of Revenue's report card, and how all of the assessors are doing, they review tons of different topics.

535
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:17,280
They give us the areas that we need to follow up on areas of concern, sometimes you can get kudos in an report.

536
00:45:18,260 --> 00:45:21,100
We've actually trimmed it down from three to two pages.

537
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,080
We've said a lot of follow-up concerns and issues,

538
00:45:25,260 --> 00:45:29,300
and we've managed for the last several years to get a lot of that stuff brought into compliance,

539
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,560
and make a lot of improvements on it.

540
00:45:34,530 --> 00:45:36,950
And if when you go to see, you get to see that this is,

541
00:45:37,710 --> 00:45:40,410
you know, just a ton of data on this statistics,

542
00:45:41,050 --> 00:45:42,350
running with the average value.

543
00:45:42,590 --> 00:45:44,670
And when you see the value, it's $6 billion.

544
00:45:44,670 --> 00:45:48,870
a lot of people say, well, I have a $3 billion dollar, county will have a $3 billion

545
00:45:48,870 --> 00:45:54,010
dollar for the taxable. I put it all into one and they break them out separately. So when

546
00:45:54,010 --> 00:45:58,550
you look at all of the exact property, which is about 80% of the county's value, we're over

547
00:45:58,550 --> 00:46:03,070
$6 billion dollars, and that includes boundary waters and everything like that. And it runs

548
00:46:03,070 --> 00:46:08,930
all the way across, the EMB changes, you know, the county taxable market, county, the new

549
00:46:08,930 --> 00:46:14,250
construction, new construction changes, tracking to see that some of it kind of fades away

550
00:46:14,250 --> 00:46:20,350
with long history and kind of becomes, you know, just walk as a way for us in the data.

551
00:46:20,650 --> 00:46:24,310
But the big thing is that we've had a lot more instruction of the last 10 years when I first

552
00:46:24,310 --> 00:46:24,770
started.

553
00:46:26,330 --> 00:46:30,750
Sometimes, it's up and down, but the new construction has been a really nice adder, additive

554
00:46:30,750 --> 00:46:32,630
to the county's tax base,

555
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:38,340
and keep going back to my directions.

556
00:46:43,630 --> 00:46:51,490
If you have questions about different sections that we go, let me know on up for Fisher's

557
00:46:51,490 --> 00:46:51,690
stay.

558
00:46:51,850 --> 00:46:58,030
We have the pie chart showing complete counties values by property type, running through

559
00:46:58,030 --> 00:47:03,490
from agricultural land to bank land, seasonal residential, residential, commercial industrial

560
00:47:03,490 --> 00:47:12,090
is out, and then the second pie chart will be running taxable market value sets, just the

561
00:47:12,090 --> 00:47:17,850
taxable, the other is total value within the county, and we'll see if in a small agricultural

562
00:47:17,850 --> 00:47:18,310
community.

563
00:47:18,610 --> 00:47:23,950
But bacon land, 8.4% seasonal, residential, commercial industrial,

564
00:47:34,350 --> 00:47:35,410
inside joke, you're actually

565
00:47:35,410 --> 00:47:36,230
sorry about that.

566
00:47:36,270 --> 00:47:42,810
Oh no, no, we were looking at some wall records and we came across the 1800s, so

567
00:47:44,310 --> 00:47:49,970
1886 Board of Appeal and Equalization changed the rate at which cows were tats.

568
00:47:51,890 --> 00:47:53,270
These are tats, cows.

569
00:47:54,230 --> 00:47:55,050
That's what we took out.

570
00:47:55,290 --> 00:47:56,430
Were they bolted down there?

571
00:47:57,850 --> 00:47:58,410
Oh, they're sats.

572
00:47:58,570 --> 00:47:59,390
They have a separate tats.

573
00:47:59,630 --> 00:48:01,150
They have come in and open up your drawers.

574
00:48:01,310 --> 00:48:02,710
They look at your silverware.

575
00:48:03,110 --> 00:48:04,430
They look at every thing.

576
00:48:04,670 --> 00:48:06,770
They have personal properties of part of the adult tats.

577
00:48:07,790 --> 00:48:10,410
Now it's taboo to pull this on the drawer.

578
00:48:11,150 --> 00:48:11,230
Okay.

579
00:48:12,590 --> 00:48:16,890
And then we go to the Kelli White sales statistic, the big thing that I draw out of the sales

580
00:48:16,890 --> 00:48:21,610
statistics is we're just now getting back to the pre-COVID sales level.

581
00:48:22,450 --> 00:48:27,350
Right after COVID went a big spike, I mean almost doubling the number sales.

582
00:48:27,990 --> 00:48:33,170
The overall good versus not good are the qualifying sales, the state about the same, about

583
00:48:33,170 --> 00:48:37,630
two thirds of the sales in the county are considered arm slip transactions and good

584
00:48:37,630 --> 00:48:42,190
for the sales study, about a third generally followed side of that, based on multiple criteria,

585
00:48:43,450 --> 00:48:49,930
which we include later on in Section 2, but the sales theaters in the Section F, and

586
00:48:49,930 --> 00:48:56,350
it breaks out all the sales and the sales that are what they're rejected for and the terminology

587
00:48:56,350 --> 00:49:01,010
and the transaction from relative sales to government sales to personal presales.

588
00:49:01,550 --> 00:49:08,830
And then the end, which is last piece of data, which is actually kind of the mixed bag for

589
00:49:08,830 --> 00:49:10,650
closures, are up a little bit.

590
00:49:11,170 --> 00:49:15,690
We had quite a bit back in 2008, before I was here, which was typical throughout the state.

591
00:49:16,410 --> 00:49:20,970
We ran through some later on COVID, and then they dropped off from back to about 5, 6, 4,

592
00:49:20,990 --> 00:49:26,610
closure, which is not bad, but it's never going to see your top lot for closures.

593
00:49:32,620 --> 00:49:37,940
And then the second section, the book, second chapter, is going to be our office routines,

594
00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:43,660
which are, you know, sales studies, the big thing that they just got, their first sales

595
00:49:43,660 --> 00:49:49,940
study report come out for this coming year, which doesn't end in a file, September 30th, but

596
00:49:49,940 --> 00:49:52,720
they're starting to track the sales, they're starting to put the other ratios, which

597
00:49:52,720 --> 00:49:54,740
are not a data level, you could idea what's happening.

598
00:49:55,520 --> 00:50:01,020
But we are still being surprised by the listings that we're seeing compared to our assessment,

599
00:50:01,020 --> 00:50:05,320
especially when you're talking about water property and we've always been aware that

600
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:11,360
view property has a premium but view properties now are really getting hard to deal

601
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:16,240
with because some of the spectacular things we're seeing. We've seen some waterfalls on a

602
00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:20,740
sale, a water sale, my press camp road, which was a year and a half ago, but we were on a

603
00:50:20,740 --> 00:50:26,600
where of it and the 38th of person sold from about $400,000. It looks like it was very

604
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:32,080
up throughout the whole thing. We're seeing more and more bad. So our job as far as assessing

605
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:36,220
is getting a little harder because we have to spend more time going out. We actually go farther

606
00:50:36,220 --> 00:50:41,760
foot now on land sails as opposed to just looking at everything. We're not land sails but bacon

607
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:47,860
land, parcels, especially when there's a water attribute or if there's a believed view on the property,

608
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,440
we actually walk a lot of those parcels which takes a lot more time.

609
00:50:56,930 --> 00:50:57,730
Then the sails,

610
00:50:59,350 --> 00:51:02,650
Right here at the redepth, I just went through the good versus the bad sales.

611
00:51:03,190 --> 00:51:12,230
There's about eight to ten pages of things that we have to go through to verify whether or not we believe the sale is a good sale for the study or not.

612
00:51:12,550 --> 00:51:15,030
And the Department of Redu has to agree with us.

613
00:51:15,170 --> 00:51:17,830
We've heard people in the past say that we throw certain ones out.

614
00:51:18,010 --> 00:51:19,390
We keep certain ones for different reasons.

615
00:51:20,010 --> 00:51:26,950
It's a joint decision between us and the Department of Redu and when you realize that we have 400 sales a year.

616
00:51:26,950 --> 00:51:33,890
You know, had it in County of 6,000, and every jurisdiction goes through everyone and everyone's

617
00:51:33,890 --> 00:51:35,510
verified by the Department of Regents, as well.

618
00:51:38,810 --> 00:51:42,870
And I think this is duplicate, yeah, and I've got duplicates of some of the data that I always

619
00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:50,570
put the most recent state board of equalization report, which is, again, our report card always

620
00:51:50,570 --> 00:51:53,670
goes into the officer teams, because that's an annual thing that we go through.

621
00:51:54,990 --> 00:51:58,290
And then we go to just the routines of the office from the assessor calendar.

622
00:51:58,290 --> 00:52:00,430
of these are like eight of them.

623
00:52:00,570 --> 00:52:01,030
Oh, pardon?

624
00:52:01,950 --> 00:52:02,090
Yep.

625
00:52:02,090 --> 00:52:02,810
I just hit K.

626
00:52:03,270 --> 00:52:04,210
Thank you.

627
00:52:04,530 --> 00:52:08,550
So we go through the assessor calendar, which the nice thing about it is I don't

628
00:52:08,550 --> 00:52:10,270
have to look this up a lot of the stuff.

629
00:52:10,530 --> 00:52:14,350
Who you have notifications on it and tickler files sent to us.

630
00:52:15,430 --> 00:52:19,450
But kind of a busy, busy calendar, luckily I have Jan

631
00:52:19,450 --> 00:52:20,670
helped us out a lot.

632
00:52:21,070 --> 00:52:23,290
And it goes to the appraiser, which appraisers really

633
00:52:24,190 --> 00:52:26,410
set people, jumps from one thing for another, but there's

634
00:52:26,410 --> 00:52:29,970
Also things that happen year-round sessions, check out ERV's and check you out.

635
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:36,360
I'm calling on sales to confirm sales, but that would be all that we go through.

636
00:52:36,740 --> 00:52:42,600
And M runs into our administrative assistant cycle, our work cycle, which we've managed over the last

637
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:48,140
couple of years with some efficiencies that we've changed and some work procedures we've actually

638
00:52:48,140 --> 00:52:53,920
been able to merge through office jobs into one position. So this gets pretty busy as well,

639
00:52:54,260 --> 00:52:57,960
but we got very lucky to be hired from that and she's handled that very well.

640
00:53:00,450 --> 00:53:00,730
And then when

641
00:53:00,730 --> 00:53:03,430
go to chapter 3.

642
00:53:05,690 --> 00:53:10,150
It's basically what's going on right now and it's an introduction of the

643
00:53:10,150 --> 00:53:15,590
office staff which we haven't had any additions in the past year. So it's going to be

644
00:53:15,590 --> 00:53:21,810
cocked from previous year. Current work and process outside of the normal everyday work that

645
00:53:21,810 --> 00:53:27,650
is our statutory requirement. The big thing is is right now we've had a focus on the recent

646
00:53:28,690 --> 00:53:32,310
There's a fair amount of paperwork to be done and we're about halfway through with it.

647
00:53:32,330 --> 00:53:38,130
Rhinny is going to get involved in it soon, like you and we're going to be hopefully sending

648
00:53:38,130 --> 00:53:42,490
up the applications shortly to the affected people and hopefully we're going to get a good

649
00:53:42,490 --> 00:53:48,130
response from someone I just ran into so many other day that didn't know who I was, that was asking

650
00:53:48,130 --> 00:53:53,210
if I'd heard anything about what's going to happen with the fire they lost their entire property

651
00:53:53,210 --> 00:53:59,250
No clue who I wasn't on like really you don't know who I am and so if there's there's some people are waiting on

652
00:53:59,930 --> 00:54:00,990
the seal we're gonna be doing

653
00:54:02,010 --> 00:54:07,290
The big thing is those is putting together. There's a put in some disaster relief qualification information

654
00:54:07,290 --> 00:54:13,250
Things that we have to look for but and the qualifying factors are putting here as well, which

655
00:54:13,250 --> 00:54:15,870
Moral has as a part of your packet for the resolution

656
00:54:16,410 --> 00:54:20,870
But if you're still showing what we have to verify the fact that that our

657
00:54:20,870 --> 00:54:26,030
residents that were affected by the fire, doing the qualified for assistance from the state.

658
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,440
And then just basic data again, the commitment, as we get to,

659
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:36,560
P, the commissioner districts in the course finding the praiser when we are a praiser.

660
00:54:37,180 --> 00:54:43,160
We are down one person, so I have the pleasure of joining the assessor staff for a while,

661
00:54:43,220 --> 00:54:48,420
so I'll be in charge of calls and issues and concerns in some of the open jurisdictions.

662
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:55,900
And then the fun thing is take a percent changes, if you notice, overall, the county would

663
00:54:55,900 --> 00:55:05,460
have 8.1% last year, but then we have Beaver Bay, 1.23.8% UT1, because up nearly 20%, different

664
00:55:05,460 --> 00:55:09,360
areas are moving at different places for different reasons.

665
00:55:10,140 --> 00:55:15,200
It's been kind of fun, but it's hard to always try to identify what it is and we believe

666
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,300
that are affecting that so we can stand top of it for the future.

667
00:55:19,300 --> 00:55:25,720
But this shows last years, and then there's a history behind, after we look at the

668
00:55:25,720 --> 00:55:30,680
ratios, the history of the ratios, which I believe this is all repeat, but as

669
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:38,920
So we get both from there to ask, that is a 10-year history of their overall ratios.

670
00:55:39,260 --> 00:55:49,600
And then we end up with just a prisoner of jurisdictions and contact information, quite

671
00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:52,980
sure you all know how to get a whole different prisoner of your areas, but this just puts

672
00:55:52,980 --> 00:55:53,700
it out.

673
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,420
I notice from when you look at it at any time, at the wish.

674
00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:00,260
Quick run through, but it's, same thing you look at every year.

675
00:56:00,260 --> 00:56:03,680
just add a year's with the data and then we get to go back and compare it to the previous year

676
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,260
which is kind of fun to do sometimes.

677
00:56:10,670 --> 00:56:12,750
And if you're having problems sleeping because of the

678
00:56:12,750 --> 00:56:16,390
heat or anything, if you want to read one whole section, it will take care of that point.

679
00:56:16,830 --> 00:56:18,150
From questions

680
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:28,920
are great.

681
00:56:33,060 --> 00:56:36,800
And it was, yeah, they're very first one, one, one, eight.

682
00:56:37,980 --> 00:56:41,360
Yep, and I'm going to tell you a couple of things to do on that.

683
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,880
And we're going to organize number two and I think that's money.

684
00:56:46,180 --> 00:56:49,300
What do you want to know about those person?

685
00:56:49,540 --> 00:56:53,880
It means me and versus what the mean ratio,

686
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:55,460
mean ratio, mean ratio, the ingredient ratio,

687
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,500
COD, and what does that mean?

688
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:02,740
Yeah, well first off, I don't get the top.

689
00:57:03,620 --> 00:57:04,440
That's a new P.L.

690
00:57:05,260 --> 00:57:07,520
So the mean ratio means average.

691
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,040
So rather than everything in the assessor world

692
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:18,460
median, which is the midpoint. So if you have 11 sales and can you rank them by their sales

693
00:57:18,460 --> 00:57:26,540
ratio from high low, the sixth sale would be the median sale. So medianism midpoint mean

694
00:57:26,540 --> 00:57:32,040
his average. Departant revenue doesn't use average because it can be skewed easily. They want

695
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,820
the midpoint revenue and also when you get rid of outliers which they do automatically.

696
00:57:35,820 --> 00:57:40,760
We don't determine what they considered being outlier. So those are the ratios based

697
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,320
in the median, the aggregate ratio,

698
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,500
and I forgot to definition that I think it is the,

699
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:48,840
it's a combination of the two.

700
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,800
So you get to, you get any type of major outlier,

701
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,300
gets kind of broken down into more common.

702
00:57:54,900 --> 00:58:00,060
COD is coefficient of coefficient of dispersion.

703
00:58:01,180 --> 00:58:03,560
And the smaller, or the closer that is to 100,

704
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,000
the higher quality of your assessment is.

705
00:58:07,020 --> 00:58:09,740
It measures and says, yes, we know that your midpoint

706
00:58:09,740 --> 00:58:11,140
is 97%.

707
00:58:11,140 --> 00:58:13,720
And we know that the world operates in a bell curve.

708
00:58:14,300 --> 00:58:17,060
How big is each one of the average deviations?

709
00:58:18,300 --> 00:58:19,900
Because you're supposed to have like 3%

710
00:58:19,900 --> 00:58:24,520
that are three average deviations within 85% in a bell curve.

711
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:25,960
So that tells you your accuracy,

712
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:27,800
the closer that it is to 100,

713
00:58:28,460 --> 00:58:30,080
if the number is 100, yes.

714
00:58:30,820 --> 00:58:34,160
The smaller deviation you have between each one

715
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:37,200
of the ratios, or each one of the sales.

716
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:43,180
PRV is priced really to differential and the higher the number as you get over a hundred

717
00:58:43,180 --> 00:58:48,120
it means you're over assessing lower valued properties compared to higher value properties.

718
00:58:48,340 --> 00:58:51,620
So they like to see whether or not your assessment levels progressive or regressive

719
00:58:51,620 --> 00:58:55,620
on higher higher level properties versus low value properties.

720
00:58:55,620 --> 00:59:02,480
They want to make sure that everyone's getting assessed equally in those different levels

721
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:07,700
of all of our values and then the sale count and the trend of sale count.

722
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:13,080
So what you'd be looking at and there's three different categories you'll look at.

723
00:59:13,220 --> 00:59:17,740
91 is a residential, we don't do much commercial and this is one of enough sales, but

724
00:59:17,740 --> 00:59:19,500
you'll look at the very first one.

725
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:25,480
It just says 91 and there's 95.59 is the meme, 97.18 is the median.

726
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:33,980
91 is the overall. And then below that 91 n is that 91 no water influence, so that's

727
00:59:33,980 --> 00:59:42,720
off water properties. And again, we're 95.97 for the mean. And 97.3, 6 for the medium. And then 91

728
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:50,620
W is on water. And as you notice, we're 91.9%. But there's only 6 sales on water versus 28

729
00:59:50,620 --> 00:59:55,540
off water in 34, and the reason why it'll be at 91% is because the push in the

730
00:59:55,540 --> 00:59:59,980
further was going to mess up the CONIC. So we sometimes balance

731
01:00:02,940 --> 01:00:29,980
We're looking at the overalls of what the Department of Revenue really looks at, but they also want to look at the differences between on and off water. And we make sure that as we're making those changes, that we're not affecting the quality of assessment, just to get the numbers in line. We're looking at balancing of both. We do this with 10 jurisdictions for on and off water, so 30 different calculations. I'm trying to balance that out, but that's what all those different individuals are doing.

732
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,220
I mean, media and price really have differential coefficient deviation.

733
01:00:46,870 --> 01:00:50,070
We often do Senate, certainly couldn't explain what is that,

734
01:00:50,070 --> 01:00:51,710
but at least have my general idea of what is said.

735
01:00:52,150 --> 01:00:55,370
Yeah, well, price rate difference was the price and property,

736
01:00:55,970 --> 01:00:57,430
what's the differential and your assessment model?

737
01:00:57,670 --> 01:00:59,210
That's the best way to look at that.

738
01:00:59,430 --> 01:01:02,610
The higher you go, what you get worse with your assessment or better

739
01:01:02,610 --> 01:01:05,230
with the assessment or the lower you go.

740
01:01:05,350 --> 01:01:10,050
And a regressive assessment, we consider you are over assessing

741
01:01:10,050 --> 01:01:15,030
lower value properties versus higher value properties and then I say

742
01:01:15,030 --> 01:01:20,330
if I forget exactly what the average value is I used to think that might be in one

743
01:01:20,330 --> 01:01:27,370
of the cell study was in an average of the mean and the mean. I think that's what it

744
01:01:27,370 --> 01:01:32,490
feels like I'm not going to say for sure because I think that's the time they didn't come up.

745
01:01:32,490 --> 01:01:33,090
to take a moment.

746
01:01:33,750 --> 01:01:34,010
OK.

747
01:01:34,350 --> 01:01:35,650
It's missing a little bit.

748
01:01:35,930 --> 01:01:36,150
It's called.

749
01:01:36,370 --> 01:01:42,510
And my, where is, still pressure steady, quite

750
01:01:42,510 --> 01:01:46,530
curried might be, and you just got to click the little eye

751
01:01:46,530 --> 01:01:47,970
in the circle where I don't know what exactly

752
01:01:47,970 --> 01:01:48,510
would that be?

753
01:01:48,670 --> 01:01:54,650
The way to mean, and it is, in 2H, it's got to be medium to

754
01:01:54,650 --> 01:01:55,890
medium to medium to medium to range.

755
01:01:56,110 --> 01:02:00,230
I have an absolute deviation, quite efficient

756
01:02:00,230 --> 01:02:05,570
of dispersion and the posterior differential and the way to mean some of your crazy values

757
01:02:05,570 --> 01:02:08,110
provided by some of the sales prices.

758
01:02:09,690 --> 01:02:10,790
I don't think that is what I'm talking about.

759
01:02:10,790 --> 01:02:15,390
I might not calculate that we calculate our earnings and our COE's.

760
01:02:17,580 --> 01:02:23,800
But that will give you the absolute definitions of all to mathematical formulas.

761
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:29,300
Price-rated differential provided by the way of being statistics has a slight bias upward.

762
01:02:29,300 --> 01:02:39,880
press with a differential above 1.0, 310 in the case of assessment, with a rational request to the press with the difference of 0.90 in the case of assessment,

763
01:02:40,380 --> 01:02:44,500
quote, see if the question is set for the rest of the.

764
01:02:44,860 --> 01:02:46,520
Mr. Chair, yes, please.

765
01:02:47,860 --> 01:02:48,240
What?

766
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:48,400
Great.

767
01:02:48,460 --> 01:02:51,920
What numbers on this stage are the same core of equalization number one?

768
01:02:51,980 --> 01:02:54,900
What numbers do you enter when you're entering?

769
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:59,280
Are these generated numbers, or do you actually, you don't type all these?

770
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,600
No, this is a document in the Department of Representatives.

771
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,640
This is their statistical philosophy we enter to get to this document.

772
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:09,940
Is it a handful of numbers or is it a page?

773
01:03:10,340 --> 01:03:15,000
Our numbers at the end of every, well, twice a year we have what they call prism reports.

774
01:03:15,460 --> 01:03:20,110
Riding with prism stand for, based on the legislature.

775
01:03:21,850 --> 01:03:22,370
Exactly.

776
01:03:22,890 --> 01:03:29,870
It's a state reporting that we do an initial report and basically, you know, they've got all

777
01:03:29,870 --> 01:03:32,850
and the computer, I just push the buttons to tell me information, we transmit the data

778
01:03:32,850 --> 01:03:38,290
of the states related generates everything up and they take all this data downloaded and

779
01:03:38,290 --> 01:03:43,570
sift through it and this is very small amount of data, compared to what they sift through

780
01:03:43,570 --> 01:03:43,650
it.

781
01:03:43,990 --> 01:03:44,170
Yes.

782
01:03:44,170 --> 01:03:47,190
So I was going through all this, I don't know if you're going to do it in your office,

783
01:03:47,410 --> 01:03:47,930
this is your paper.

784
01:03:48,270 --> 01:03:49,190
It's like, whoa, whoa.

785
01:03:49,650 --> 01:03:52,730
Nope, this is all pulled out of the apartment rather than they are.

786
01:03:53,030 --> 01:03:57,770
We do our, we do the same kind of work on our own, we do it up and let some more work

787
01:03:57,770 --> 01:03:59,010
right, a lot of them they do.

788
01:03:59,010 --> 01:04:03,050
Because I mean, they do sometimes make mistakes.

789
01:04:09,130 --> 01:04:09,870
Other questions?

790
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:14,160
Well, thank you Greg.

791
01:04:14,500 --> 01:04:15,840
I appreciate all this information.

792
01:04:16,020 --> 01:04:17,520
It's always good to look at.

793
01:04:18,220 --> 01:04:25,140
So is there a cause to me that anybody in the reasons why I would or wouldn't leave?

794
01:04:26,100 --> 01:04:27,460
And I think we got enough.

795
01:04:27,660 --> 01:04:28,220
We have to take it.

796
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:30,200
So you can bring whiskey.

797
01:04:30,820 --> 01:04:31,320
About 10.

798
01:04:31,860 --> 01:04:33,380
Where do you request one of them?

799
01:04:44,900 --> 01:04:48,960
I'm going to go home with the memory of this puppy.

800
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:51,260
There will be a quiz.

801
01:04:54,130 --> 01:04:55,290
The mystery of the next.

802
01:04:55,290 --> 01:05:05,950
All right, just a brief update on the fire, warns, contemplate that we don't hear

803
01:05:05,950 --> 01:05:11,250
but interestingly enough, we're just changing the zones that we speak, because

804
01:05:11,250 --> 01:05:14,250
think of the ready set, the ready's evacuations zones.

805
01:05:14,570 --> 01:05:22,250
So we, on Sunday, we made changes, open up the firmer, we'll essentially all look one zone

806
01:05:22,250 --> 01:05:30,370
from go to set, and all of our set zones from set to ready. We had one area left and go,

807
01:05:30,570 --> 01:05:34,810
which was right up by the start of where the campfire was at. And St. Louis County had two

808
01:05:35,730 --> 01:05:42,930
adjoining areas that were in ghost houses, as well. Those properties all got access from the

809
01:05:42,930 --> 01:05:47,290
cloquet line, which we've all heard about the number of times, which starts and St. Louis County

810
01:05:47,290 --> 01:05:52,070
goes through Lake County and goes back into these areas that they had in the evacuation of the

811
01:05:52,070 --> 01:05:58,050
Now, today, I assume based on conversations with all the folks working on the fire, seeing

812
01:05:58,050 --> 01:06:03,590
those coming on and moving their areas to set that were off the cocaine line.

813
01:06:04,130 --> 01:06:11,250
We had a hard stop on the closure on the cocaine line road at the Cedar Lake Bowen Access.

814
01:06:12,030 --> 01:06:17,710
So, them changing that, precipitated us having to get some messaging out and change it.

815
01:06:17,710 --> 01:06:24,610
So, we actually, with our last area that was in goal evacuation status, we cut that in half

816
01:06:24,610 --> 01:06:29,790
and allowed the cold K line to be opened and we didn't have any property owners or

817
01:06:29,790 --> 01:06:33,390
cabin owners that were affected by that, it was more just a coordination thing.

818
01:06:33,590 --> 01:06:40,650
So actually had three o'clock, they were doing that, they started meeting into, but warm back

819
01:06:40,650 --> 01:06:46,350
didn't go too, because I couldn't help with that, but anyway, just a recent change on that,

820
01:06:46,350 --> 01:06:53,650
So we're at, you know, set status, the four services making changes on the boundary waters,

821
01:06:55,250 --> 01:06:55,550
status.

822
01:06:56,210 --> 01:07:01,590
And so we're actually working with them on that because I think for the first time, as we're

823
01:07:01,590 --> 01:07:06,550
going through this process and they're closing the boundary waters, we actually changed our

824
01:07:06,550 --> 01:07:09,510
evacuation zones in the Bongo Arts to match that.

825
01:07:09,590 --> 01:07:16,330
So as they move to remove part of that evacuation status, we have to match the long-term

826
01:07:16,330 --> 01:07:18,770
that they magically drew through the boundary waters.

827
01:07:18,930 --> 01:07:22,250
And I suppose based on lakes and axes, but didn't line up

828
01:07:22,250 --> 01:07:23,890
directly with what we had in our GIS.

829
01:07:24,870 --> 01:07:27,590
So we're working with the four servers to match the next

830
01:07:27,590 --> 01:07:29,970
out within our GIS within the boundary water.

831
01:07:31,260 --> 01:07:43,760
I think a good chunk of the southern portion of the bond wars in Lake County will be open to overnight permits. I think that's starting Thursday. They don't quote me that they have their own release coming out on that.

832
01:07:44,420 --> 01:07:57,760
And so, as we, you know, Warren and Tim's from the Sheriff's Officer are just still engaged in following all the work that they're continuing to do up there on the campfire, but obviously things have been going in the right direction.

833
01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:03,240
the last number of days to get folks back in their home and every minute you go to

834
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:09,080
whenever we go, they continually remind us that in the fight, typical fire season is

835
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:16,160
August in September, so we're not necessarily other words, again, it's going in the right direction,

836
01:08:17,020 --> 01:08:21,840
but obviously we'll continue to watch and monitor that in a things chain who will make decisions

837
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:26,260
accordingly, but things seem to be headed in a positive direction at home.

838
01:08:28,050 --> 01:08:33,210
Does there any questions about the fires in the status right now?

839
01:08:33,310 --> 01:08:39,950
I think one fun fact that Warren stated this morning is 2 million gallons of water have been done.

840
01:08:40,130 --> 01:08:41,350
I don't know there yet.

841
01:08:41,490 --> 01:08:42,890
I'm a fire so far.

842
01:08:45,330 --> 01:08:46,910
For so reason it doesn't seem like a lot.

843
01:08:47,390 --> 01:08:49,190
All right.

844
01:08:49,370 --> 01:08:50,750
We didn't make a dent from the lake.

845
01:08:51,350 --> 01:08:54,090
Unless you've carried into the thousands of gallons at a time.

846
01:08:55,190 --> 01:08:56,130
You're a pale piece.

847
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:13,000
So, we currently have the emergency operation center still stood up, I think we have a meeting tomorrow at 8.15 again considering whether we just go virtual with that and just continue to watch the meeting.

848
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:17,360
We open that if necessary things take a turn.

849
01:09:21,310 --> 01:09:22,550
There's no questions on that.

850
01:09:23,190 --> 01:09:25,410
I think I'm going to let Jay start with the dump of River Road.

851
01:09:25,730 --> 01:09:26,850
Do you have a plan to talk about that?

852
01:09:27,250 --> 01:09:28,390
I don't need it.

853
01:09:30,110 --> 01:09:30,590
You got it?

854
01:09:30,770 --> 01:09:31,010
Sure.

855
01:09:31,010 --> 01:09:51,830
We had a meeting yesterday to talk about the Dunkin River Road, the county border authorized some preliminary design and work to be done on that and the community we had working on that for a yearland was able to sit down and hear some more details on that and so just give Jason to have two years to how they were at and we were looking to go.

856
01:09:51,830 --> 01:09:58,430
Sure, so yeah, just as a reminder, we were kind of not knowing what we didn't know about the improvements that I wrote with look like.

857
01:09:58,890 --> 01:10:08,770
I think I had thrown out some very big numbers for a cost to do an improvement to that road to make it more of a suitable road for any vehicle other than an ATV or UTV.

858
01:10:09,710 --> 01:10:14,310
So we brought on SEH to do a preliminary study for that project.

859
01:10:14,310 --> 01:10:19,630
I'll actually have them submit a proposal for a complete project delivery all the way to a project

860
01:10:19,630 --> 01:10:24,770
plans, but we kind of authorized them this April I believe to do just the preliminary

861
01:10:24,770 --> 01:10:25,730
look into that.

862
01:10:26,290 --> 01:10:29,110
So I'd like to call it kind of a concept planned development.

863
01:10:29,230 --> 01:10:35,370
I'll turn those analysis and kind of pushing towards it, I'll call it a 30% plan set, just

864
01:10:35,370 --> 01:10:40,550
kind of understanding road-aging metrics, how much curve realignment do we need to look at,

865
01:10:40,550 --> 01:10:44,270
how much hill cutting and low area filling

866
01:10:44,270 --> 01:10:45,510
do we need to look at to bring a row

867
01:10:45,510 --> 01:10:47,990
to just a higher standard of road.

868
01:10:48,510 --> 01:10:51,850
So SEO just completed that and thrown some preliminary

869
01:10:51,850 --> 01:10:54,350
cost estimates at that.

870
01:10:54,650 --> 01:10:58,050
And the kind of reworking all of the curve of a road

871
01:10:59,030 --> 01:11:04,830
from we used nip creek, which is kind of about five miles in

872
01:11:04,830 --> 01:11:08,130
from how we two as our Western boundary of highway two,

873
01:11:08,130 --> 01:11:09,210
their numbers got a little bigger.

874
01:11:09,210 --> 01:11:13,470
The mine which but I think there's a lot of fine tuning that we can do with the design

875
01:11:13,470 --> 01:11:14,650
that we decided to go forward.

876
01:11:15,430 --> 01:11:20,090
They also looked at an alternative alignment which would be a kind of a new road, which

877
01:11:20,090 --> 01:11:26,570
would cut off if I remember correctly, almost 12 miles of road, it would kind of add one

878
01:11:26,570 --> 01:11:30,530
mile of new road and cut off about three miles of or two and a half miles of the Dunker

879
01:11:30,530 --> 01:11:31,430
River Road.

880
01:11:31,810 --> 01:11:39,090
It's just a short trip to Highway 2, but it does cut through some low line areas and actually

881
01:11:39,090 --> 01:11:41,970
through some non-US-4 service line,

882
01:11:42,150 --> 01:11:43,630
and so we've written some additional challenges.

883
01:11:44,830 --> 01:11:47,170
So, where we're at right now is kind of trying to decide

884
01:11:47,170 --> 01:11:50,110
if we're what next steps do we want to take with the project?

885
01:11:50,870 --> 01:11:52,410
Do we want to continue going forward,

886
01:11:53,530 --> 01:11:55,050
which kind of calling phase two,

887
01:11:55,170 --> 01:11:57,870
which would be further study, further surveys,

888
01:11:58,510 --> 01:12:00,110
and further kind of analysis of that,

889
01:12:00,210 --> 01:12:04,370
and then taking the studies and the design

890
01:12:04,370 --> 01:12:07,210
to a point where we could kind of get through

891
01:12:07,210 --> 01:12:14,150
environmental review process, and obviously fine-tuned the cost and the design of that for

892
01:12:14,150 --> 01:12:19,410
that purpose, and then start being ready to actually apply for some funding to actually build

893
01:12:19,410 --> 01:12:25,250
the road. There was a funding opportunity that came up from the, it's a federal funding opportunity

894
01:12:25,250 --> 01:12:31,550
for significant lands, I think it's based around. We would have been eligible for that, but we didn't

895
01:12:31,550 --> 01:12:35,910
have the environmental review process done, which you needed to have done in order to actually apply

896
01:12:35,910 --> 01:12:37,470
and you receive funds for it.

897
01:12:37,770 --> 01:12:39,370
So you kind of shall really type the thing.

898
01:12:39,810 --> 01:12:40,430
Pretty close.

899
01:12:40,650 --> 01:12:42,010
Yeah, I would imagine if you didn't have

900
01:12:42,010 --> 01:12:44,050
been documents that final construction plans,

901
01:12:44,210 --> 01:12:45,410
you'd probably be okay, but yeah,

902
01:12:45,450 --> 01:12:47,210
you and you have to have the design far enough along

903
01:12:47,210 --> 01:12:48,530
to get through that review process.

904
01:12:49,550 --> 01:12:51,070
So that's what you're talking about, phase two.

905
01:12:51,090 --> 01:12:53,030
Phase two would be kind of going into that.

906
01:12:53,030 --> 01:12:53,970
Yeah, that reminds me of a review

907
01:12:53,970 --> 01:12:55,790
and getting it to a more of a, I'll call it

908
01:12:55,790 --> 01:12:57,070
a 60% plan design.

909
01:12:58,330 --> 01:13:00,430
And taking a look at those two different alternatives

910
01:13:01,210 --> 01:13:03,530
that we would have for that road alternative.

911
01:13:04,630 --> 01:13:10,850
So, one of the things that kind of puts a little bit of a time crunch on us and I've got

912
01:13:10,850 --> 01:13:16,590
planned to put this before the board for action next to the next action medium and August,

913
01:13:16,730 --> 01:13:17,830
first meeting there.

914
01:13:19,030 --> 01:13:22,770
It's just, it's already mid August at this point and our field season starts running out pretty

915
01:13:22,770 --> 01:13:28,670
quick for geotechnical surveys, sort of warrants, and especially wetland delineations,

916
01:13:29,790 --> 01:13:35,150
and getting a well-indulination completed, which would be a critical part of that environmental review.

917
01:13:36,530 --> 01:13:40,790
So, what we'll be looking at is kind of authorizing an SCH to be got on face two of the project.

918
01:13:41,150 --> 01:13:44,770
Again, which would be kind of the need for environmental review process,

919
01:13:45,110 --> 01:13:47,510
what the delineations, sort of warrants, et cetera,

920
01:13:48,350 --> 01:13:53,450
to really help us kind of, again, it takes us to that point where from there,

921
01:13:53,690 --> 01:13:55,210
we could get into construction plans and funding.

922
01:13:57,630 --> 01:14:01,910
But the one caveat to that was again that becomes, you know, we kind of wanted to take

923
01:14:01,910 --> 01:14:06,750
off an initial bite of this with that preliminary kind of corridor planning study,

924
01:14:07,590 --> 01:14:09,410
which was a $90,000 contract.

925
01:14:10,150 --> 01:14:14,630
This would push it kind of into that next phase, which is pushing into, I think, all in

926
01:14:14,630 --> 01:14:23,970
$300 to $350,000 minus the 90, so somewhere in that ballpark of an additional $240 to $250,000

927
01:14:24,590 --> 01:14:25,330
for that.

928
01:14:25,330 --> 01:14:30,870
And again, that's not a fun and project, but it's important for access to that area.

929
01:14:31,030 --> 01:14:33,230
I'm talking over road, so.

930
01:14:33,750 --> 01:14:40,690
I think the one thing to add to that full scope of moving forward with more design work,

931
01:14:40,710 --> 01:14:43,750
I think we're still looking at it as in segments.

932
01:14:44,510 --> 01:14:49,470
So at this moment, we need these couple pieces and continue to follow what things go along.

933
01:14:49,650 --> 01:14:53,690
And at any point, we decide we don't want to go down this path anymore.

934
01:14:54,290 --> 01:14:59,970
We're not all in for the full 300,000 we stop at that point and it's just where that and we're done

935
01:15:00,020 --> 01:15:22,420
So, this is kind of looking out these next few months. We might get approval to do the rest of the agreement, but we're really looking at these next two to three months to do this, and they continue to figure out where we're at and make decisions, you know, essentially, a few months, depending on where the things are at, this is still the direction we're on, right? I think that's an important piece of that as well.

936
01:15:23,730 --> 01:15:30,710
Now, the other part of it is, as I mentioned in the funding cycle, we missed that federal funding cycle

937
01:15:30,710 --> 01:15:33,510
because we didn't have the need for stuff done.

938
01:15:33,730 --> 01:15:38,550
In order to get that done, the next phase 2 we have to get some of this work done

939
01:15:38,550 --> 01:15:43,750
in order to get in on the next federal funding cycle to get outside funding.

940
01:15:44,290 --> 01:15:49,790
If we delay on this, the fall comes and goes and they can't do a lot of the wet

941
01:15:49,790 --> 01:15:55,910
and deal in the nation, and they end up with a drop dead date and a sort of war and

942
01:15:55,910 --> 01:15:56,470
it's just stuff.

943
01:15:57,230 --> 01:16:02,790
So the sooner we could say, go ahead and go to the next phase, we can get it done and

944
01:16:02,790 --> 01:16:09,550
get it all worked done in order to get in on that funding cycle for next year for federal

945
01:16:09,550 --> 01:16:10,250
funds.

946
01:16:10,730 --> 01:16:10,850
Right.

947
01:16:11,950 --> 01:16:15,950
So that's kind of the crunch we're in right now is to keep moving forward.

948
01:16:15,950 --> 01:16:22,730
But there is a little uncertainty in the air, and not that we find out what this isn't around, that we need.

949
01:16:23,310 --> 01:16:25,170
We pull from the pin right at that time.

950
01:16:26,010 --> 01:16:26,610
Just a little bit.

951
01:16:26,750 --> 01:16:35,730
Do we do we spend money on this project that front, and then it goes through, and then we apply for funding,

952
01:16:35,930 --> 01:16:39,210
and if some of that funding can it be radioactive or no?

953
01:16:39,690 --> 01:16:42,690
Good question. The funding sources are looked at.

954
01:16:42,690 --> 01:16:47,790
Don't think so. That's usually pretty rare. It's usually not a well, not a few very

955
01:16:47,790 --> 01:16:50,990
spent the money. You can go back and get it. It's a rare thing, but certainly something

956
01:16:50,990 --> 01:16:54,910
we can look into. And what was certainly look at other options. And we talked about

957
01:16:54,910 --> 01:17:00,990
having conversations with IEEE, about if there's any opportunities there. Just finding

958
01:17:00,990 --> 01:17:05,450
breaking this project out into all the little phases on that between construction, design,

959
01:17:05,710 --> 01:17:10,450
planning, studies, and seeing if there's a car vote that we can make and say,

960
01:17:10,450 --> 01:17:15,370
Yeah, we don't, we're not asking you to fund road construction here, we're asking you just to fund a study engineering work.

961
01:17:15,770 --> 01:17:16,090
So it's a project.

962
01:17:16,610 --> 01:17:18,630
Chicken and chicken and the egg thing.

963
01:17:18,850 --> 01:17:20,770
We've got to have this before we put that.

964
01:17:20,990 --> 01:17:22,110
But we don't have the money for this.

965
01:17:23,370 --> 01:17:26,990
It's like, it's a big, it's in my head.

966
01:17:27,510 --> 01:17:29,190
It's going back and forth like ping pong daddy.

967
01:17:29,590 --> 01:17:29,930
You know what I mean?

968
01:17:30,970 --> 01:17:31,850
It's difficult.

969
01:17:33,410 --> 01:17:34,570
There's a lot of that.

970
01:17:35,170 --> 01:17:39,570
And we got to stay focused a little bit on why we're doing this.

971
01:17:39,570 --> 01:17:47,570
And I think there's some skin in the game that they should have to, and reimburse in a colony, but if you want to go to us, we have.

972
01:17:48,950 --> 01:17:50,650
Oh, I'm making a good plan.

973
01:17:55,230 --> 01:17:58,530
So, nothing on the table for action today, we're still kind of working through that,

974
01:17:58,530 --> 01:18:02,210
of SSCH to take their original proposal, which is, again,

975
01:18:02,470 --> 01:18:05,870
we kind of had them look ahead to complete crash delivery and say,

976
01:18:06,110 --> 01:18:11,010
let's pick out kind of those next phases and build a phase two out of your complete proposal

977
01:18:11,790 --> 01:18:16,030
and get a scope and a cost to that, and that's what I'd be putting forth

978
01:18:16,030 --> 01:18:20,090
to the board for a view and approval at the next section.

979
01:18:23,770 --> 01:18:24,850
Thanks for that Jason.

980
01:18:24,990 --> 01:18:27,410
There was a lot of extra work.

981
01:18:28,510 --> 01:18:32,070
Keeping just tabloid and see each of itself, so appreciate that.

982
01:18:32,810 --> 01:18:36,030
Yeah, I think they're pretty excited to get on board.

983
01:18:36,050 --> 01:18:37,110
It's a fascinating project.

984
01:18:37,290 --> 01:18:39,910
You don't often build brand new roads, essentially.

985
01:18:39,910 --> 01:18:43,050
I mean, you look at what's out there today and trying to build a road out of that.

986
01:18:44,030 --> 01:18:49,050
It's kind of fun for an engineer, so they get to have the fun and I get to manage it.

987
01:18:52,930 --> 01:18:54,750
I'm proud to be a game six months.

988
01:18:59,870 --> 01:19:02,670
Yeah, I think we like suggested that it's going to be a very action forward.

989
01:19:02,830 --> 01:19:06,510
I think we're also going to do a little more exploring the ultimate route.

990
01:19:06,510 --> 01:19:15,930
I think we have, we have a bunch of context, but I think we got one that we want to give a call so we can chat about how we tackle that and see if there is an intention.

991
01:19:16,770 --> 01:19:21,370
There to look other directions and save some miles, save some costs to those types of things.

992
01:19:22,570 --> 01:19:26,810
I think the other things I had on my list is the 2020 7-budget process.

993
01:19:27,790 --> 01:19:31,770
It's out to departments and anticipating what I have all that stuff back on August 7.

994
01:19:31,770 --> 01:19:37,530
I think the thing we need to do, since we are a little later at the process, get some

995
01:19:37,530 --> 01:19:39,750
budget meetings set up.

996
01:19:40,090 --> 01:19:44,790
I'm kind of looking at that week of August 24th, 28th, to give a chance to get all the

997
01:19:44,790 --> 01:19:47,930
information back and meet a budget presented to the county board.

998
01:19:50,050 --> 01:19:53,290
So today is the day we could look at calendars and get something set up.

999
01:19:53,570 --> 01:19:56,870
That would be great, or certainly next week, we got to get that.

1000
01:19:56,910 --> 01:20:01,750
We need to get it a lot, because September 30th, we need to get it a couple, and we need

1001
01:20:01,750 --> 01:20:03,690
line up right now.

1002
01:20:08,510 --> 01:20:13,810
You sit at 24 through to 20? Yeah, that's a week that works well for me and I think it's

1003
01:20:14,410 --> 01:20:20,130
some time you get those budget back some work with the county auger and all that stuff prepared.

1004
01:20:29,100 --> 01:20:30,300
I have a lot of open time

1005
01:20:30,300 --> 01:20:38,240
and we're going to couple me in on three meetings, three events and then I think that's great. One day,

1006
01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:41,040
Wednesday and Friday or open for people.

1007
01:20:44,930 --> 01:20:47,090
I have an exact same date,

1008
01:20:52,860 --> 01:20:53,240
so any of those

1009
01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:58,980
were probably one day or one day would be the best. Wednesday is bad for me. Monday is

1010
01:20:58,980 --> 01:21:05,960
best for you. Monday is good for me. Yeah, it'd be best for me. Monday is really well for me.

1011
01:21:06,040 --> 01:21:13,440
I'm sure. What time would you like to start? 1 p.m.

1012
01:21:15,420 --> 01:21:16,760
I'll show you.

1013
01:21:17,340 --> 01:21:17,560
Here.

1014
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,680
We'll check the conference rooms.

1015
01:21:22,980 --> 01:21:24,180
If there's that.

1016
01:21:24,180 --> 01:21:26,320
It's good to have a highway to have a highway to have a little less.

1017
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:27,840
Get that figured out.

1018
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:29,620
Get it on everyone's calendar.

1019
01:21:33,010 --> 01:21:33,510
I just want to need that.

1020
01:21:33,670 --> 01:21:37,280
The one for an hour.

1021
01:21:38,260 --> 01:21:39,900
It looks like this room is free.

1022
01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:41,160
There you go.

1023
01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:42,040
Thank you.

1024
01:21:44,490 --> 01:21:45,170
Very good.

1025
01:21:58,100 --> 01:21:59,180
I want it to 130.

1026
01:22:01,180 --> 01:22:03,220
And one, two, four, three.

1027
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:04,400
Yeah, that's it.

1028
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,640
Just a little

1029
01:22:12,770 --> 01:22:13,850
sister in there.

1030
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:22,840
The couple of things I had, is you've talked about the camping slash and the service for

1031
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:23,620
the county land.

1032
01:22:23,820 --> 01:22:24,940
Tax war fit fee.

1033
01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:29,580
I would like to propose an August 25th as a date for a public hearing.

1034
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:43,620
For that ordinance, we have what is almost a final draft. Give us another week or so to put together something and get that public notice out. Hold that hearing and then move forward in that process.

1035
01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:51,100
And then we kind of look at that before, I think everybody was in support of going that direction and just want to make sure that date will work.

1036
01:22:51,740 --> 01:22:56,000
What date did you have? The 25th August 25th.

1037
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:59,660
Is that before the meeting, we'll do it during our county board, during the board.

1038
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:01,000
Yeah, yeah, okay.

1039
01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:03,800
Yeah, the board.

1040
01:23:04,340 --> 01:23:05,200
Okay, sure well.

1041
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:06,800
One, two, three.

1042
01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:07,440
There's that.

1043
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:14,040
We had mediation with LALS last week.

1044
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:18,900
And so we went through that process, and we have another date selected.

1045
01:23:19,580 --> 01:23:23,920
So we continue on with mediation in the early in the month of August.

1046
01:23:25,220 --> 01:23:27,920
And then just a final thing,

1047
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:29,660
skewer rules,

1048
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:31,840
I was going to talk about that.

1049
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,120
Just remind folks that we do

1050
01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:36,240
have some decision on how

1051
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:38,700
we receive those ones and what they go towards.

1052
01:23:39,340 --> 01:23:40,680
I don't know what the timing of them,

1053
01:23:40,900 --> 01:23:43,080
they actually come back and ask us to

1054
01:23:43,080 --> 01:23:45,400
restate how we want those money to go.

1055
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:46,440
But historically,

1056
01:23:46,740 --> 01:23:48,160
I think ever since,

1057
01:23:48,180 --> 01:23:48,420
you know,

1058
01:23:48,460 --> 01:23:50,920
the Securable School Safety that famous came out,

1059
01:23:50,920 --> 01:24:00,440
We elect 85% of it goes to what is called Title 1, which is to our schools and to road in British, split 50-50.

1060
01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:12,220
Then there's a last 15% that goes 8% to Title 2, which I think is the rack committee that used it on that the forest decides how to spend.

1061
01:24:12,220 --> 01:24:18,740
And then 7% goes to Title 3, which you hear mostly warm talk about with emergency management,

1062
01:24:19,440 --> 01:24:22,620
fire-wise related things, search and rescue related things.

1063
01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:30,460
Of course, we pick the highest amount that we could towards Title 1, to our schools, and 2 rows.

1064
01:24:31,180 --> 01:24:35,100
And then we pick the highest amount towards Title 3 out of that, that we can use locally.

1065
01:24:36,180 --> 01:24:40,420
So it could look a little different, but I don't really see any reason to give more to the rack,

1066
01:24:40,420 --> 01:24:44,880
or take the last for our schools and for our roads.

1067
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:49,580
So, every once in a while that comes back around to be certified for four years.

1068
01:24:49,580 --> 01:24:50,360
It's at four years.

1069
01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:54,220
That's why I kind of forget about it before I come back around and I understand that.

1070
01:24:54,460 --> 01:25:03,700
So every four year to be certified, in lieu of secure rules, schools, you used to just get 25% of the receipts off of national forks.

1071
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:08,740
That's the payment we receive because of changes and revenues that we receive.

1072
01:25:08,740 --> 01:25:15,840
the implement of that 2000, interesting to note that in Minnesota actually three counties,

1073
01:25:16,160 --> 01:25:22,400
certainly two counties, would receive more on the 25% payment of the work the foreseers

1074
01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:26,380
is doing on the national force and they would receive under the safety net.

1075
01:25:26,380 --> 01:25:29,100
I think that's cast and I task a count.

1076
01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:31,060
We don't.

1077
01:25:31,440 --> 01:25:37,900
So I think we get about 600,000, and it's substantially lower what we get from the 25% payment.

1078
01:25:37,900 --> 01:25:43,120
I don't know if that's just because the market's different here for the type of forestry that they can do.

1079
01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:49,240
But out of all the counties that get secure real schooled, we are right at the highest amount of St. Louis county.

1080
01:25:49,340 --> 01:25:52,780
We get the same amount of St. Louis county, at around $600,000.

1081
01:25:53,900 --> 01:26:00,280
So that, it's something that comes up very, I feel like there are a few years because the feds have to reauthorize.

1082
01:26:00,500 --> 01:26:02,220
Well, they reauthorize at different months.

1083
01:26:02,700 --> 01:26:07,460
I mean, the election I've been doing before is sometimes they authorize it for two years or four or four.

1084
01:26:07,460 --> 01:26:13,720
four years they've done it for different amounts of the approved this payment that you know locally again

1085
01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:18,340
emergency management gets it and then you know I always been getting two to three hundred thousand

1086
01:26:18,340 --> 01:26:23,420
dollars a revenue that goes towards the road every year and a lot of years are wondering whether we

1087
01:26:23,420 --> 01:26:28,560
budget that I'm going to budget it we're going to get everything I'm going to get it but anyway we just

1088
01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:32,720
made that election and things just I was good to just another one of those sources of revenue that we

1089
01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:38,900
that we have a little bit of decision authority and I always try to fight to make sure we

1090
01:26:38,900 --> 01:26:39,160
continue.

1091
01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:45,620
That's what I have. Question should you let

1092
01:26:48,910 --> 01:26:50,790
Jason, did you have anything else?

1093
01:26:51,310 --> 01:26:52,270
Today, let's move on.

1094
01:26:54,450 --> 01:26:54,850
Nathan?

1095
01:26:57,030 --> 01:26:57,430
Auditor?

1096
01:26:59,030 --> 01:27:00,770
I want to give you my couple quick updates.

1097
01:27:01,710 --> 01:27:07,510
We have started the 2025 state audit from our financials.

1098
01:27:07,510 --> 01:27:15,610
The state audit team is here in the auditor's office today in meeting several of the departments together in relation to begin their audit process.

1099
01:27:16,510 --> 01:27:18,650
So that's where all along is way.

1100
01:27:19,510 --> 01:27:22,990
A couple of election updates is mentioned at the last meeting.

1101
01:27:23,270 --> 01:27:26,070
We have started early in-person voting.

1102
01:27:26,070 --> 01:27:34,430
So anyone can come into the Lake County Courthouse and vote early in person and insert their ballot into the ballot tabulator.

1103
01:27:35,570 --> 01:27:39,630
We do still also offer early voting by mail through election days.

1104
01:27:39,790 --> 01:27:42,470
So anybody in Lake County can request a ballot by mail.

1105
01:27:42,950 --> 01:27:45,650
To be mailed to wherever they're currently residing.

1106
01:27:46,470 --> 01:27:53,350
So this question did come up in some training with the recent evacuations we had and how those people might be able to vote.

1107
01:27:53,350 --> 01:27:59,510
But anybody in the State of Minnesota can request a ballot or ever, they're currently receiving mail.

1108
01:27:59,730 --> 01:28:02,510
That was a good point to make.

1109
01:28:04,670 --> 01:28:13,390
Last week, we did hold our public accuracy test of the election equipment and the ballot tab leaders.

1110
01:28:14,470 --> 01:28:20,830
On Tuesday, and we did invite all of our head election judges and in another kind of coalition judge.

1111
01:28:21,510 --> 01:28:27,150
And for some additional election change training, so that went really well for us, election

1112
01:28:27,150 --> 01:28:30,670
judge training has been online since the round COVID-2020.

1113
01:28:31,610 --> 01:28:37,770
So this thing personally was nice to get some judge's here in person and have all of some

1114
01:28:37,770 --> 01:28:38,710
additional training.

1115
01:28:39,330 --> 01:28:39,930
So that's welcome.

1116
01:28:42,210 --> 01:28:42,310
Hello.

1117
01:28:43,310 --> 01:28:48,590
And I guess last is tax-war mature, we did complete the for-picture process last week.

1118
01:28:48,590 --> 01:28:53,630
So we did have two residential properties that did for fit here in 2026.

1119
01:28:54,330 --> 01:28:56,570
They're currently in their repurchase period.

1120
01:28:57,310 --> 01:29:00,290
Hopefully we can get that worked out with the prior owners.

1121
01:29:00,870 --> 01:29:04,790
If not, we'll be falling up with public client adoption.

1122
01:29:10,020 --> 01:29:10,100
Okay.

1123
01:29:10,100 --> 01:29:12,860
Do you say only two private hospitals or two homes?

1124
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:15,060
Two residential properties.

1125
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,060
So they did both have homes on them.

1126
01:29:19,700 --> 01:29:23,440
The rest were severed mayoral parcels, but it doesn't, it doesn't.

1127
01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:24,580
Okay.

1128
01:29:32,930 --> 01:29:37,830
One thing is, in public comments today, we heard a lot about elections.

1129
01:29:40,690 --> 01:29:45,710
Can you point me to those statutes or send those to me that?

1130
01:29:46,310 --> 01:29:46,850
Yes.

1131
01:29:47,930 --> 01:29:54,130
There is public election statute with how ballots are to be counted.

1132
01:29:54,130 --> 01:29:59,970
To determine the election results at the end of an election, there's also additional statutes.

1133
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:14,960
If you use voting equipment or tabulators, which then does that count for you and takes away the hand count part of the vote, but I can definitely send you those statutes for review.

1134
01:30:17,980 --> 01:30:26,880
Because we didn't go through this two years ago, but similar, as Bonnie had alluded to.

1135
01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:32,440
But if we have one concern here, we've got 20 out there.

1136
01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:38,700
So I just want to make sure that we are doing everything and doing correctly as there.

1137
01:30:38,700 --> 01:30:44,360
And there's one statute that does refer to the counting of ballots.

1138
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:53,020
One specific question is the counting of ballot cards at the close of polls as Bonnie mentioned.

1139
01:30:53,740 --> 01:30:59,440
The voting equipment does tally the number of votes as those ballots are fed into the machine.

1140
01:30:59,960 --> 01:31:03,220
And it'll display a public card for that polls closed.

1141
01:31:03,220 --> 01:31:09,080
That is recognized by the election judges, then based upon the number of voters who came

1142
01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:10,300
into the precinct.

1143
01:31:10,580 --> 01:31:11,640
So they verify that.

1144
01:31:11,820 --> 01:31:16,600
The signatures on their election roster and the voting receipts who give people or you

1145
01:31:16,600 --> 01:31:17,520
receive a ballot.

1146
01:31:18,100 --> 01:31:22,760
So those figures have to be tallied out at the end of the night with the public count on your

1147
01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:27,720
ballot tabulator to know that you have the right number of ballots in the right number

1148
01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:28,140
of voters.

1149
01:31:28,140 --> 01:31:44,020
So, some of these election statutes are specifically referring to that in the counting of ballot cards to match the number of folders with a number of ballot cards in your ballot tab later.

1150
01:31:45,340 --> 01:31:49,600
But again, they're statutes, and they're written like statutes.

1151
01:31:50,460 --> 01:31:54,380
There's always some whom they're interpretation of trends.

1152
01:31:54,380 --> 01:32:01,640
Well, that's right, but I think, which is totally fair, but just that whatever process

1153
01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:05,840
that we're using is to make sure that that needs our statutes in.

1154
01:32:06,840 --> 01:32:11,540
So, the last time we're on it, there was three that they had brought against us, and I think

1155
01:32:11,540 --> 01:32:16,720
we actually made a couple of changes, so we need to go over the court to court if I don't

1156
01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:19,800
have to go into the lead, and then on that.

1157
01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:22,480
So, I'm just making sure.

1158
01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:24,860
But if you can point me to those I appreciate that.

1159
01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:25,920
Really? Thank you.

1160
01:32:27,540 --> 01:32:31,800
I remember a conversation I had with our senator on

1161
01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:34,840
on the most recent changes here.

1162
01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:36,980
A couple of years ago, I didn't believe I went through.

1163
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:40,120
But fire you met with him then was,

1164
01:32:40,120 --> 01:32:45,040
they were passing an agenda murder legislation.

1165
01:32:45,500 --> 01:32:48,340
That said, if you have a machine, that's gold.

1166
01:32:48,340 --> 01:33:00,160
You can't question. And I remember arguing with him about that and telling him, you should always be able to come back to the paper copy, but they were, and I think it vast.

1167
01:33:00,980 --> 01:33:14,080
I remember being quite a gentle dimsel. I think there might be people not reading the newest legislation that's passed in the last couple years, because they've made a lot of sexual changes.

1168
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:15,460
So I agree with you.

1169
01:33:15,580 --> 01:33:20,640
We need to understand better so when we get these questions, we make sure that we stand up

1170
01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:21,280
to the citizens.

1171
01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:22,600
So, that's all.

1172
01:33:24,500 --> 01:33:32,600
There may be another statute related to this issue that we have at review, but Bonnie did

1173
01:33:32,600 --> 01:33:37,760
contact our office and referenced some specific statutes in her question.

1174
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:43,700
Those were also reviewed by the Secretary of State's office who did get an opinion on

1175
01:33:43,700 --> 01:33:47,740
of statutes. You did it the opinion. Okay, pretty good.

1176
01:33:50,220 --> 01:33:52,200
Well, probably just send it up to the

1177
01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:54,500
whole board if you want. Thank you.

1178
01:33:57,290 --> 01:34:00,510
All right, Commissioner's correspondence. Joel gives

1179
01:34:00,510 --> 01:34:02,490
a brief update on returning home.

1180
01:34:04,650 --> 01:34:11,830
So 12 days at C. Okay, did you see like C legs? So

1181
01:34:11,830 --> 01:34:20,990
I felt it. Anyway, we got home. I think it was Sunday, not what Sunday. Anyway, Monday was kind of a war, but I

1182
01:34:21,970 --> 01:34:32,690
Before I did all of that, I was still attending things throughout, and I went to a night river to the boat house, a ribbon cutting, for that Viking ship.

1183
01:34:32,690 --> 01:34:40,130
the Lee Pherson ship. But I didn't win, because they ended up by saw Neal Athens there.

1184
01:34:40,330 --> 01:34:46,410
It's Sons of Norway, and I was wearing a sport coat and then sort of a bit approachable

1185
01:34:46,410 --> 01:34:51,030
when I blew I am. And I got to talk to him, and then he announced that, you know, on the

1186
01:34:51,030 --> 01:34:56,330
thing, there was a big kudos to Lake County for participating, and I, you know, helping

1187
01:34:56,330 --> 01:34:58,590
and paid the way for those projects.

1188
01:34:59,270 --> 01:35:01,470
That boat building is, that's pretty amazing.

1189
01:35:01,870 --> 01:35:03,710
One guy built that thing.

1190
01:35:04,170 --> 01:35:04,770
That's unbelievable.

1191
01:35:05,250 --> 01:35:07,130
They mean all the parts stuck in all of the big,

1192
01:35:07,490 --> 01:35:09,990
tinkercad toys that, but basically, it's huge.

1193
01:35:11,070 --> 01:35:12,850
And so yeah, the whole thing is really up,

1194
01:35:12,870 --> 01:35:14,650
but nice, and that, that was a nice celebration.

1195
01:35:15,630 --> 01:35:17,530
And at several people who came up to me,

1196
01:35:17,650 --> 01:35:19,210
who had seen me on television,

1197
01:35:19,590 --> 01:35:22,170
because I had three around in, three runs on TV.

1198
01:35:22,190 --> 01:35:25,150
I did all about the third one, but before I did this,

1199
01:35:25,150 --> 01:35:33,710
I attended the town hall in Eely at Vermilion with Grant and Roger and had a whole bunch of other people from the state.

1200
01:35:34,210 --> 01:35:37,890
And everybody was in there pretty much sitting low in the middle and we're going to do that.

1201
01:35:38,050 --> 01:35:39,690
That's all that you said for about an hour.

1202
01:35:40,250 --> 01:35:48,330
Anyway, I just kind of drew the discred because I had a firsthand experience of throwing my lodge guess out and saying,

1203
01:35:48,330 --> 01:35:49,950
I'm saying you've got to go.

1204
01:35:50,170 --> 01:35:53,370
And hi, one guy is 85 years old, he's in a cabin number five.

1205
01:35:53,470 --> 01:35:56,290
I go there and I said, hey, I hate to tell you this,

1206
01:35:56,330 --> 01:35:57,850
but you guys got to go, we're in first.

1207
01:35:57,950 --> 01:35:59,410
See that smoke flower blonde.

1208
01:35:59,650 --> 01:36:01,770
And he goes, what do we have to leave?

1209
01:36:01,910 --> 01:36:05,610
I said, well, like, no, there he goes.

1210
01:36:06,130 --> 01:36:08,270
I don't even let you get a good night's sleep.

1211
01:36:09,530 --> 01:36:10,350
I got it.

1212
01:36:10,910 --> 01:36:12,510
Oh, but he was kind of a challenge.

1213
01:36:12,730 --> 01:36:14,690
I had to hook his boat up for him at the back.

1214
01:36:14,850 --> 01:36:16,150
It's truck up for him.

1215
01:36:16,150 --> 01:36:17,950
I said, how did you get you?

1216
01:36:18,050 --> 01:36:19,450
He doesn't even know how to drive this trailer.

1217
01:36:19,670 --> 01:36:21,050
It's like, oh, did you drive a hold in it?

1218
01:36:21,270 --> 01:36:21,630
Almost.

1219
01:36:22,290 --> 01:36:23,850
I thought it was going to have to drive him up the driveway.

1220
01:36:24,090 --> 01:36:24,990
It's like, holy, holy, holy.

1221
01:36:25,290 --> 01:36:27,530
But we got a new lot of there and everybody else.

1222
01:36:28,070 --> 01:36:31,370
Yeah, it was crazy, and then I went blind on a highway,

1223
01:36:31,570 --> 01:36:34,570
and my left eye, and that was all the other things.

1224
01:36:34,570 --> 01:36:38,490
Screwed the crap out of my wife, and all that stuff stuff stuff.

1225
01:36:38,990 --> 01:36:39,150
Yeah.

1226
01:36:39,270 --> 01:36:40,350
You could drive me to get driving over it.

1227
01:36:40,370 --> 01:36:42,970
I drove, I kind of did.

1228
01:36:43,110 --> 01:36:44,510
Yeah, I didn't want to stop.

1229
01:36:44,510 --> 01:36:49,070
It's just, well, there was a lot of traffic and it was just coming at us right there.

1230
01:36:49,450 --> 01:36:51,990
Vesta hit traffic for just while I was.

1231
01:36:54,170 --> 01:36:57,810
Anyway, I went up and around the mountain there and I happened back down the other side because I knew

1232
01:36:57,810 --> 01:37:04,370
where the hospital is, I just passed it. I go in there and I tell my wife, my wife, my wife,

1233
01:37:04,370 --> 01:37:09,630
I got there in the parking lot. It's like five. I said, I think I'm good, so I didn't

1234
01:37:09,630 --> 01:37:15,790
Now I got my wife yelling at me on the phone, no, get in there, call her doctor, call her doctor and he goes,

1235
01:37:16,690 --> 01:37:23,050
Joe, I think you're definitely having a medical emergency go to the urgent care right now.

1236
01:37:23,190 --> 01:37:29,970
I said okay, so I go in there and I walked in, it was three minutes, it was un...

1237
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:35,880
Assembly will all many people jumped and started clearing the path for me.

1238
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:42,560
Sit here, do this, do that, and then check this out and ask me my name on the birthday of 257,000 times.

1239
01:37:43,280 --> 01:37:49,060
And then I finally get to a room, and the nurse that was areas of all guy with a mustache.

1240
01:37:50,560 --> 01:37:59,380
He says, it's going to be like the ND500 that the pit could stop right now and it was

1241
01:37:59,380 --> 01:38:02,600
straight people and there's a little tiny room and we're sticking something in, we

1242
01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:09,300
poking me and checking everything and looking, oh my god it was chaos and pandemonium, then

1243
01:38:09,300 --> 01:38:19,040
I MRI CT scans and you didn't have a stroke, I went all the way, so I had to go to an

1244
01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:25,260
of something's blocking the back of my eye and made it go blind and then come back and she

1245
01:38:25,260 --> 01:38:29,740
didn't think that was going to be a problem. She said it may never bother you ever again.

1246
01:38:30,020 --> 01:38:33,500
That's a while I'm going to certainly remember that pattern. I saw when I was going to

1247
01:38:33,500 --> 01:38:39,720
want to. I know anyway so yeah that was a crazy week but I was I was really kind of tired

1248
01:38:39,720 --> 01:38:46,180
and Monday when we hit a couple of zoom meetings I didn't drive to Tim Buck too. I said

1249
01:38:46,180 --> 01:38:51,400
It's got to zoom this copy in anyway. Yeah, the Viking ship was a highly of the week

1250
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:55,360
It was a really it was a nice event next year is going to be their hundredth year

1251
01:38:56,020 --> 01:38:59,440
They're gonna add this was the this was the test run for the big event

1252
01:38:59,440 --> 01:39:04,780
So I got to see grant again, so I believe in staying in front of our politicians

1253
01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:10,860
Constantly so it's like every day and I'll see in about some point or another which is good and

1254
01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:15,800
So that's pretty much my week and that's short. The shortest I can make it apparently

1255
01:39:16,180 --> 01:39:17,860
or glad you're back at home.

1256
01:39:18,380 --> 01:39:19,980
Yeah, they always say, get your health.

1257
01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:23,420
Oh, yeah, I want to say thanks to Matt and Warren

1258
01:39:23,420 --> 01:39:27,280
and the Sheriff's Department and all the people who

1259
01:39:27,280 --> 01:39:28,760
were done this fire.

1260
01:39:29,120 --> 01:39:30,560
As far as I'm concerned, I don't think

1261
01:39:30,560 --> 01:39:32,540
you could have a better emergency.

1262
01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:34,460
I mean, it's a weird way to say it.

1263
01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:38,060
But it was very un-eventful.

1264
01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:41,200
It could have been absolute complete

1265
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:46,020
pandemonium in chaos and everything went really, really,

1266
01:39:46,020 --> 01:39:49,520
move which surprised me, you know, because I mean, if people get a little

1267
01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:54,120
our logic, you can see the whites of some of their eyes, we had an employee who just

1268
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:58,780
started to freak out, she went and ended up going back to Missouri. That's a big

1269
01:39:58,780 --> 01:40:04,660
freak out. All the way back to Missouri, but she's coming back, so she'll be back

1270
01:40:04,660 --> 01:40:09,240
you're now that everything's better, so at least we're at a set two, so. Anyway,

1271
01:40:09,980 --> 01:40:14,160
yeah, Claire was really upset. He said the white man here, her eyes got bigger and

1272
01:40:14,160 --> 01:40:19,180
real clear. Just breathe. We're going to be okay. We're not on fire. Fire is over there.

1273
01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:21,720
Yeah, we're good. She could have drove your old guy.

1274
01:40:22,920 --> 01:40:26,380
Look. I don't know. Yeah, he was on that way.

1275
01:40:29,020 --> 01:40:29,940
Thank you.

1276
01:40:29,980 --> 01:40:31,420
All right. Thank you.

1277
01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:32,900
What else?

1278
01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:36,800
No way. No way.

1279
01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:37,700
I don't know.

1280
01:40:37,700 --> 01:40:40,660
I certainly am not good at trying to compete with people in the world.

1281
01:40:42,160 --> 01:40:52,560
But the light is first of all for Jason and possibly meet the hairlake boat access.

1282
01:40:55,360 --> 01:41:03,020
Met with a association up there, our attorney, Russ and myself had a Zoom call with their

1283
01:41:03,020 --> 01:41:10,800
association and and what came out of that it was a set up another meeting and we all left it with the little homework.

1284
01:41:11,080 --> 01:41:19,140
But it was agreed that there's some some erosion coming from the colony road that runs down

1285
01:41:19,140 --> 01:41:24,300
and indivolated across the access to the boat access that's there now.

1286
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:31,020
And we agreed that's probably our issue to look at and figure out what we want to do there.

1287
01:41:31,020 --> 01:41:51,860
They, the association that called, so in a water to come out and look at it, make a big report, and their ideas of how it should be repaired, but you can certainly look at that, but we said our engineer will look at it and decide what they want to do there to stop that erosion.

1288
01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:57,220
And then the other part of it is on that plat.

1289
01:41:58,100 --> 01:42:00,780
There is a dedicated spot for both landing,

1290
01:42:01,680 --> 01:42:06,500
but there's 20, 20, 30 feet of woods there.

1291
01:42:06,500 --> 01:42:09,240
And so that would have to be cleared out

1292
01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:13,320
and some gravel put in there if we're gonna abandon

1293
01:42:13,840 --> 01:42:15,400
the original boat landing.

1294
01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:18,460
And this all started because they blocked it off.

1295
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:20,880
We have, we believe we have the use for it.

1296
01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:27,820
attorney believes you have to use for it. But it's probably not in the best place. And the

1297
01:42:27,820 --> 01:42:34,100
agreement on that call was we're not doing anything until they move the rocks. They agreed to

1298
01:42:34,100 --> 01:42:40,440
move the rocks. So people can back a small trailer down there and that's all we've looked at. So

1299
01:42:40,440 --> 01:42:47,260
but for the August 27th, there's a next meeting. I like that something to give them back to. I told

1300
01:42:47,260 --> 01:42:53,860
this is pretty low priority they understand that on ours but at least if I could say we

1301
01:42:53,860 --> 01:42:58,700
went out and looked at it we were working on a plan or whatever we're doing and I think

1302
01:42:59,220 --> 01:43:07,140
as far as relocating the boatmen and you can look at it give us an idea how big a job it is

1303
01:43:07,140 --> 01:43:13,940
and if it's more than something we want to tackle then I'll go back to soil and water maybe

1304
01:43:13,940 --> 01:43:18,440
have them go and find some funding and hire a contractor to do it.

1305
01:43:18,600 --> 01:43:19,260
Take the deal.

1306
01:43:20,200 --> 01:43:21,600
But I can't do any of that.

1307
01:43:21,720 --> 01:43:25,240
I get your opinion on what you think we should do there.

1308
01:43:26,380 --> 01:43:30,200
And I can forward you their correspondence and the soil

1309
01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:32,080
and water's report to keep on that.

1310
01:43:33,940 --> 01:43:35,820
Maybe one of your guys are up in the area.

1311
01:43:36,020 --> 01:43:37,940
They can look at it.

1312
01:43:38,360 --> 01:43:40,000
But I'm in the 27th.

1313
01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:42,840
I don't want to say we haven't done anything yet.

1314
01:43:42,840 --> 01:43:46,380
I'd like that, have they seen what I saw on it,

1315
01:43:49,460 --> 01:43:53,180
and for Nate, has there been any more

1316
01:43:53,180 --> 01:43:57,120
correspondence with the club in Silver Bay, but that property up there?

1317
01:43:57,860 --> 01:43:59,860
No, I don't know if they even went and got there with him.

1318
01:44:00,340 --> 01:44:09,100
Okay, oh, I'll chase him down, and then the moving that trail on the Starmquist land is

1319
01:44:09,100 --> 01:44:11,740
that something that we can, what a fool of look at it.

1320
01:44:11,740 --> 01:44:16,500
Yeah, maybe make something happen there before fall into the rest.

1321
01:44:19,120 --> 01:44:19,740
Tell you.

1322
01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:21,960
There you go.

1323
01:44:23,800 --> 01:44:32,220
Uh, a few things for me, uh, I mentioned, uh, earlier that, uh, uh,

1324
01:44:32,300 --> 01:44:35,640
Ronnie had taken me into the courthouse, uh, records fault.

1325
01:44:35,800 --> 01:44:37,760
And we were looking at these old, uh, records.

1326
01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:50,320
I think it's a little boyager, one of you guys should make it, you haven't been in there before, because it's an archive, and it's pretty cool, just take a look at a couple documents,

1327
01:44:53,240 --> 01:44:56,160
and just, well, I want you to show in there your stay-odders.

1328
01:44:57,320 --> 01:44:59,760
It didn't have to stare at the 1880s.

1329
01:45:01,580 --> 01:45:13,260
Trial balance or financial statement with state auditors. It had three entries, grant total of $3,100 in county funds.

1330
01:45:13,900 --> 01:45:15,700
A lot of money back there.

1331
01:45:17,730 --> 01:45:24,230
So, jump on that and, you know, sometime when you have a bit of take a look.

1332
01:45:24,230 --> 01:45:29,750
I mentioned this to Matt, I'm going to bring it up to this group,

1333
01:45:32,210 --> 01:45:34,390
Scott Robinson, probably

1334
01:45:34,390 --> 01:45:42,310
no one will have him, lives in Joe's district, but he does that sort of inspection, who

1335
01:45:42,310 --> 01:45:55,480
or installs and stuff, he called me and one of the things that he wanted to know is looking

1336
01:45:55,480 --> 01:45:59,720
up records when he's doing a sewer inspection, he wants to see what the previous records

1337
01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:02,100
and stuff were related to it.

1338
01:46:02,100 --> 01:46:08,360
He can't access that through art form and you kind of explained to me, this is something

1339
01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:16,700
that you guys have talked about, we talk about a staff of how, how, when, where we actually

1340
01:46:16,700 --> 01:46:22,380
do that, but we have the ability to do it, where you don't have the ability to do it, but

1341
01:46:22,380 --> 01:46:25,140
something that staff seems to do.

1342
01:46:25,400 --> 01:46:29,420
Because there's been conversation that I'd have to dig back into a bad thing.

1343
01:46:30,260 --> 01:46:35,520
That was the whole that we could attribute more of things if you're looking on a GIS of other records.

1344
01:46:36,440 --> 01:46:42,300
What it would take to get to that point is the answer I don't have the question to do.

1345
01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:46,440
We have to, like, everything else have to scan all that into the system.

1346
01:46:47,820 --> 01:46:52,440
The challenge is we have a number of things scanned and in different databases.

1347
01:46:53,740 --> 01:46:58,640
What it would have to be in to be able to speak with GIS or other systems where you

1348
01:46:58,640 --> 01:47:03,740
will bring them up and what lift it would be to get all that together, that's the answer

1349
01:47:03,740 --> 01:47:04,220
I don't know.

1350
01:47:04,420 --> 01:47:11,380
I just remember being maybe it was even with Christine or other things that there was ideas,

1351
01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:15,760
dots, maybe goals of that, but what would it take to get there?

1352
01:47:17,110 --> 01:47:22,790
It's a challenge for any entity, and I don't know if any county has this word, just every

1353
01:47:22,790 --> 01:47:26,110
zone for an accepted permit is out there.

1354
01:47:27,310 --> 01:47:30,530
And so, it's a loose light, I mean, it's a loose light,

1355
01:47:32,820 --> 01:47:36,280
because they created GIS as the

1356
01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:44,600
center of their government, basically, all the departments branch up from that, GIS leaves

1357
01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:44,960
the county?

1358
01:47:54,440 --> 01:48:00,160
So anyway, that's got that call, so it's got to be a number of our sewer operators are probably

1359
01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:05,880
running in the same thing and I imagine with other applications that we're not thinking

1360
01:48:05,880 --> 01:48:11,880
of all of it, but he had that concern, so I'd bring that up and you'll see where it's at

1361
01:48:11,880 --> 01:48:14,140
and you'll back to him all of that.

1362
01:48:14,140 --> 01:48:20,340
with that and jumping way ahead, obviously, you know, really know what the catch is, but

1363
01:48:20,340 --> 01:48:26,140
would that be something that, since it has to do with records and applying to parcels,

1364
01:48:26,440 --> 01:48:31,360
that you can use some of the recorded response that you've put in that.

1365
01:48:35,210 --> 01:48:35,610
It's a program.

1366
01:48:35,830 --> 01:48:37,170
It's certainly there here.

1367
01:48:37,210 --> 01:48:37,470
Certainly.

1368
01:48:37,910 --> 01:48:44,180
Well, it comes across to get help to come in here in some sort of conversation.

1369
01:48:44,180 --> 01:48:54,740
And I think one of the conversations I was in the morning, the record was part of that about trying to tie different documents, but that's the other application is

1370
01:48:57,100 --> 01:48:58,900
the record search just to see.

1371
01:49:02,920 --> 01:49:11,160
I received a call from Bob and it's a chairman of the NAF River Larson Law Sanitary District,

1372
01:49:11,860 --> 01:49:14,320
PASTIF 5.

1373
01:49:15,420 --> 01:49:21,060
I could come down and bring our environmental services director with to take a look at

1374
01:49:21,060 --> 01:49:28,100
issues surrounding the sewer plant, our previous environmental

1375
01:49:31,820 --> 01:49:33,320
service director Christine.

1376
01:49:34,640 --> 01:49:39,380
She had false abylations and some things that she thought could be improved down there.

1377
01:49:40,280 --> 01:49:46,400
And Bob, let's really drill down and make sure that we get those off covered and then we

1378
01:49:46,400 --> 01:49:52,000
dry her and then kind of get her up to speed and just work to get those corrected.

1379
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:53,900
So we're doing that on Thursday.

1380
01:50:00,590 --> 01:50:05,890
Oh, so the night river RECOMSEL, they had their boat.

1381
01:50:07,690 --> 01:50:11,030
They opened up a membership to the public.

1382
01:50:12,370 --> 01:50:16,950
They had about 250 members now.

1383
01:50:17,490 --> 01:50:25,890
I think it was 157 voted on whether to purchase the night river campground or not.

1384
01:50:25,890 --> 01:50:39,820
And 84% of the vote was in the positive, so good turnout, really local democracy and action,

1385
01:50:41,840 --> 01:50:46,080
and they do have a bunch of the funding in place to participate.

1386
01:50:46,240 --> 01:50:50,000
I think they said they have to raise about 135,000.

1387
01:50:50,000 --> 01:50:57,900
And they passed a promise of some anonymous donors and they're going to continue to move and get that done.

1388
01:50:58,140 --> 01:51:01,380
I think it was by a November they had to get it.

1389
01:51:01,380 --> 01:51:04,900
So, like I said, here we are.

1390
01:51:06,420 --> 01:51:08,880
And then the last thing I had was in our packet.

1391
01:51:11,180 --> 01:51:13,580
It was the, the veteran, the best home.

1392
01:51:14,640 --> 01:51:16,100
Oh, yes, we can be there.

1393
01:51:16,300 --> 01:51:17,020
See that one?

1394
01:51:17,060 --> 01:51:17,740
Yes, we're going to be there.

1395
01:51:17,740 --> 01:51:26,680
I went to this last year and it was a great event. We had started doing this many years ago.

1396
01:51:27,420 --> 01:51:33,780
It's just the car club. We come in and say hi to the vets. They come all wheel low, walk home, whatever.

1397
01:51:34,840 --> 01:51:41,040
They look at a few cars and we drive off. We know it's kind of morphed into a little bigger thing. It's really a nice event.

1398
01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:43,840
It's on August

1399
01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:52,440
12th, 11 to 2. That's a Wednesday. That's the day that you and I have

1400
01:51:52,440 --> 01:52:00,620
got to meet with this DNR above the Crosby. They claim it's just one night, they went in to go in.

1401
01:52:00,860 --> 01:52:04,760
Well, I think Nate's going to be there. That's going to be there.

1402
01:52:06,880 --> 01:52:10,420
I've got a pair when I was 19 years old spent a little summer,

1403
01:52:10,600 --> 01:52:11,500
I've got my journals.

1404
01:52:13,480 --> 01:52:16,880
It's supposed to be done by Newton, and I don't really envision that.

1405
01:52:17,040 --> 01:52:18,980
Right, that's why I always think that we can always stop.

1406
01:52:19,020 --> 01:52:20,280
Stop here and leave that.

1407
01:52:20,420 --> 01:52:21,140
I'll go away back.

1408
01:52:21,720 --> 01:52:23,100
So, if anybody else can make it,

1409
01:52:23,160 --> 01:52:25,100
I'd be at this event here.

1410
01:52:25,560 --> 01:52:28,800
I'd question for the board.

1411
01:52:30,050 --> 01:52:59,910
What are we going to do with the mayor and that committee? They're looking at building another building, you know, where they say, word, I don't quite know why I should do it. That same day, I have a mayor and that meeting. I mean, I don't have a problem going to the meeting, but I'm kind of wondering what my involvement is being, since we're in a long drinking room. We don't really, what is it, what anybody have a clue what I should be doing? Well, we're probably still listening to the original agreement

1412
01:52:59,910 --> 01:53:01,770
when they purchase their buildings,

1413
01:53:01,950 --> 01:53:03,690
they still need some representation,

1414
01:53:04,970 --> 01:53:07,930
but I think their long-term plan

1415
01:53:07,930 --> 01:53:09,910
and talking to people behind the scenes

1416
01:53:09,910 --> 01:53:11,510
is they're going to tear the building,

1417
01:53:11,670 --> 01:53:14,230
they just got to figure out how do they come,

1418
01:53:14,370 --> 01:53:15,510
they will ooze in there.

1419
01:53:16,590 --> 01:53:18,630
That was the discussion we had two months ago.

1420
01:53:18,890 --> 01:53:21,550
A big part of that's going to probably be driven

1421
01:53:21,550 --> 01:53:27,910
by the next few weeks here as we meet with folks

1422
01:53:28,410 --> 01:53:34,790
Folks that may or may not be interested in the silver-made clinic because that might move the pharmacy down there

1423
01:53:34,790 --> 01:53:38,770
which will expedite everything else going on with that building.

1424
01:53:39,670 --> 01:53:39,730
Okay.

1425
01:53:40,070 --> 01:53:42,210
Well in that case I will continue to.

1426
01:53:42,310 --> 01:53:43,970
I'll be there for the car show and the mayor.

1427
01:53:44,630 --> 01:53:47,290
They're going to overlap a little bit, but I'll do.

1428
01:53:47,530 --> 01:53:50,550
There's probably not any big decisions going on with that building.

1429
01:53:50,830 --> 01:53:52,870
If you had other priorities, I wouldn't worry.

1430
01:53:52,870 --> 01:53:56,790
Missing a Merry Mac meeting, but it's there, it's there.

1431
01:53:57,250 --> 01:54:00,390
Yeah, well, it's a little bit of a show, so it's all going to kind of work.

1432
01:54:01,090 --> 01:54:03,110
Come on, now.

1433
01:54:03,630 --> 01:54:04,010
All right, thank you.

1434
01:54:04,030 --> 01:54:06,450
Good news, and I can up and down the hills with the mosquitoes.

1435
01:54:09,550 --> 01:54:10,790
Let's get into your district.

1436
01:54:11,690 --> 01:54:13,890
Well, I think it was just the lands committee that there.

1437
01:54:13,890 --> 01:54:15,090
Is that all they targeted?

1438
01:54:15,490 --> 01:54:15,790
Yeah.

1439
01:54:18,560 --> 01:54:19,320
We'll keep you filled.

1440
01:54:19,460 --> 01:54:20,280
I don't know.

1441
01:54:20,280 --> 01:54:20,520
I don't know.

1442
01:54:21,780 --> 01:54:23,200
I have no idea.

1443
01:54:32,620 --> 01:54:36,540
That's the end of my report that's move on to our action items.

1444
01:54:36,980 --> 01:54:39,960
First up, general consent, any items anybody wishes to remove?

1445
01:54:41,180 --> 01:54:43,420
I'd like to have number four pull-off,

1446
01:54:43,960 --> 01:54:46,200
bring that to the top of our action items.

1447
01:54:53,820 --> 01:54:56,840
Here, you know, other I'll remove the rest of them.

1448
01:54:56,840 --> 01:55:02,280
or the motion of second, except the consent agenda over the removal of number four, whole

1449
01:55:02,280 --> 01:55:02,840
favor.

1450
01:55:03,400 --> 01:55:03,660
All right.

1451
01:55:04,160 --> 01:55:04,480
Opposed?

1452
01:55:05,400 --> 01:55:06,520
That motion carries.

1453
01:55:10,310 --> 01:55:12,150
We'll bring this over to our resolution.

1454
01:55:12,150 --> 01:55:13,230
Is that a clerk?

1455
01:55:13,830 --> 01:55:14,350
All right.

1456
01:55:14,550 --> 01:55:14,810
All right.

1457
01:55:14,950 --> 01:55:15,250
All right.

1458
01:55:15,350 --> 01:55:17,050
We'll just table them before then.

1459
01:55:17,150 --> 01:55:17,370
No.

1460
01:55:17,650 --> 01:55:19,710
We'll bring it to the top of the rest of the bar.

1461
01:55:19,990 --> 01:55:20,150
Thank you.

1462
01:55:20,230 --> 01:55:20,530
Thank you.

1463
01:55:20,910 --> 01:55:22,410
Thank you.

1464
01:55:22,410 --> 01:55:23,610
Thank you.

1465
01:55:23,610 --> 01:55:26,310
I'll preview it for you on the consent agenda.

1466
01:55:27,770 --> 01:55:28,270
We're motion.

1467
01:55:31,340 --> 01:55:32,100
I'll move.

1468
01:55:33,740 --> 01:55:35,620
Motion second at discussion.

1469
01:55:40,320 --> 01:55:50,100
One of the concerns of Commissioner Hoganson and I asked the same question was the applicants

1470
01:55:51,100 --> 01:55:56,000
on this action for planning commission have other rental properties.

1471
01:55:56,880 --> 01:56:06,720
Our ordinance only allows for an owner to have one property, one rental, one short-term rental.

1472
01:56:07,140 --> 01:56:08,800
They can't have two short-term rentals.

1473
01:56:10,320 --> 01:56:12,660
So we're seeing that going on in one direction.

1474
01:56:13,540 --> 01:56:23,120
So I asked to pull this off just to discuss it because I met and mentioned that you talked to my own services.

1475
01:56:26,780 --> 01:56:30,980
And they didn't see any problem with that, I just want to make sure we get this discussion.

1476
01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:39,420
Yeah, there's another choice I had a permit that they're aware has multiple permit

1477
01:56:39,420 --> 01:56:41,600
for vacation rounds within the city to harvest.

1478
01:56:42,400 --> 01:56:45,620
In this choice, they don't see any other rental permits.

1479
01:56:45,780 --> 01:56:48,940
In our ward, it's just talks about the area we have jurisdiction over correct.

1480
01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:50,540
So it's a one in our area.

1481
01:56:50,540 --> 01:56:55,920
So that current applicant that's in front of us they're only aware of this one the other one that was

1482
01:56:55,920 --> 01:57:00,420
Some period in the past did that by the ones but still met our requirements

1483
01:57:00,420 --> 01:57:05,500
So there there there is no no one issue with our ordinance related to these

1484
01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:07,140
Based on everything

1485
01:57:08,260 --> 01:57:13,720
So just want to make sure that that was clear on this particular action. All right, yep

1486
01:57:13,720 --> 01:57:18,140
All right, so we got a motion second discussion and a more

1487
01:57:18,140 --> 01:57:19,000
All the favors.

1488
01:57:19,520 --> 01:57:22,640
All right, equals, that motion does pass.

1489
01:57:24,300 --> 01:57:25,180
Yes, your movement.

1490
01:57:25,680 --> 01:57:26,820
I don't remember one.

1491
01:57:27,420 --> 01:57:28,680
I don't remember.

1492
01:57:29,640 --> 01:57:32,000
Score, conversation.

1493
01:57:34,520 --> 01:57:35,180
All the favors.

1494
01:57:35,640 --> 01:57:38,120
All right, terms, motion carries.

1495
01:57:39,160 --> 01:57:40,460
Anyandi I don't remember Q to.

1496
01:57:41,240 --> 01:57:44,860
So more any değil and discussion.

1497
01:57:46,760 --> 01:57:47,440
All the favors.

1498
01:57:47,440 --> 01:57:47,920
Hi.

1499
01:57:49,140 --> 01:57:49,700
Holds?

1500
01:57:49,740 --> 01:57:50,520
That motion carries.

1501
01:57:52,280 --> 01:57:53,640
Item number three.

1502
01:57:56,260 --> 01:57:56,520
Sport.

1503
01:57:57,960 --> 01:57:58,540
Any discussion?

1504
01:58:00,280 --> 01:58:00,680
All of it.

1505
01:58:01,180 --> 01:58:01,420
Hi.

1506
01:58:02,100 --> 01:58:02,660
Holds?

1507
01:58:03,580 --> 01:58:04,360
That motion carries.

1508
01:58:05,940 --> 01:58:06,840
Item number four.

1509
01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:07,300
So.

1510
01:58:11,920 --> 01:58:12,360
Discussion?

1511
01:58:12,920 --> 01:58:13,420
Did you get it?

1512
01:58:13,560 --> 01:58:14,260
It was a good amount.

1513
01:58:14,600 --> 01:58:15,160
I heard it.

1514
01:58:15,160 --> 01:58:16,360
Let me share the next one.

1515
01:58:16,640 --> 01:58:17,180
Thank you.

1516
01:58:18,840 --> 01:58:20,700
Oh, you mean for this part?

1517
01:58:21,320 --> 01:58:21,860
I don't care.

1518
01:58:24,280 --> 01:58:24,840
Discussion?

1519
01:58:26,180 --> 01:58:26,620
All the favor?

1520
01:58:27,360 --> 01:58:27,620
All right.

1521
01:58:27,960 --> 01:58:28,400
Opposed?

1522
01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:30,240
Motion carries.

1523
01:58:31,300 --> 01:58:32,860
Item number five.

1524
01:58:33,180 --> 01:58:33,620
A move.

1525
01:58:35,320 --> 01:58:35,820
Discussion.

1526
01:58:37,180 --> 01:58:42,420
The one thing I wanted to bring up on that was I was looking at in our packet.

1527
01:58:42,600 --> 01:58:45,200
We had the 5A and 5B.

1528
01:58:47,100 --> 01:59:02,900
And I don't know, I'm assuming that this is just more information that is exactly what the numbers would be of that, you know, because they found an error in there.

1529
01:59:02,900 --> 01:59:10,440
I guess my understanding is this would be a preliminary resolution that will allow us to see

1530
01:59:10,440 --> 01:59:18,880
reimbursement for any disaster being the sort of credits that we do grants, but as part

1531
01:59:18,880 --> 01:59:24,660
of that process, the assessor will be bringing those final payment requests to or for the

1532
01:59:28,040 --> 01:59:33,060
Okay, so that's kind of what I figured it was going to be, but I just want to make sure

1533
01:59:33,060 --> 01:59:37,060
these weren't the numbers because we should be approving an error in that.

1534
01:59:37,160 --> 01:59:42,500
So I think you're just trying to provide an idea of what's out there in terms of what we'll be potentially

1535
01:59:42,500 --> 01:59:45,300
located in the university. Thank you.

1536
01:59:46,040 --> 01:59:49,320
I have another question.

1537
01:59:49,320 --> 01:59:59,860
And then with this dollar amount that we are reimbursing, we keep track of that so we can put that in for disaster relief.

1538
02:00:00,460 --> 02:00:11,180
Well, I think that's the idea behind this, is that we're going to go through this process, get applications. This resolution is going to help us seek the reimbursement back for the credit sheet for the requirements.

1539
02:00:12,360 --> 02:00:15,600
That is the point of this, it's getting that reimbursement to the state.

1540
02:00:17,960 --> 02:00:23,960
And we did get approval of the disaster declaration for the other work that we've done.

1541
02:00:23,960 --> 02:00:30,320
So now, we've provided preliminary damage assessment that we have potentially get 75% of the

1542
02:00:30,320 --> 02:00:31,460
reimbursement of the force amount.

1543
02:00:31,780 --> 02:00:36,400
Through those specific numbers and try to capture that, I mean, this is kind of separate

1544
02:00:36,400 --> 02:00:40,920
from that, that we'll be eligible for, and based on this resolution and the application

1545
02:00:40,920 --> 02:00:41,420
we get.

1546
02:00:41,700 --> 02:00:45,040
We'll be able to get the reimbursement back from the state to help those folks.

1547
02:00:47,440 --> 02:00:48,100
Very good.

1548
02:00:49,260 --> 02:00:50,140
Anything else?

1549
02:00:51,820 --> 02:00:52,280
Hold the paper.

1550
02:00:53,180 --> 02:00:53,360
All right.

1551
02:00:53,360 --> 02:01:02,140
holes and that bullshit here and that brings us to the day end of our agenda. Anything else

1552
02:01:02,140 --> 02:01:03,460
could be good in the morning?

1553
02:01:05,930 --> 02:01:07,450
Thank you very much.
