1
00:00:22,270 --> 00:00:24,290
[clears throat]

2
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:32,000
judge. Would you like to address?
>> Thank you. What I'd like to do is I know

3
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:36,160
that last time we spoke with the corn
court, we had a resolution that allowed

4
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:39,360
me to go out and look for the 20% for
the five bridges, the three low water

5
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,920
crossings in the moccasin creek and
Jimmy's Creek bridge. And the 20% would

6
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:50,719
be 2.6 million on the county and then
10.7 towards the state. Uh I'm not

7
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:55,520
legally allowed by amendment 78 to take
out a loan for the county for longer

8
00:00:52,879 --> 00:00:58,960
than 5 years. I was given even a five
and a half percent rate on that which

9
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:06,560
would be amazing in this day and age.
$5,000 a month back to the loan

10
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:12,479
bank for five years. Okay.
Second option that we've uh came across

11
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:18,240
would be a bon and with the last two
ways uh Marian County as a whole has

12
00:01:16,479 --> 00:01:22,799
shown up to vote and responded to
anything to do with a sales tax issue. I

13
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:26,560
don't think that that would be a wise
direction to go at this time. So

14
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:30,960
thirdly, we have what's called a
partnership with ARDOT.

15
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:37,680
And ARDOT is already covering the other
$10 million will cover up to the 2.6 or

16
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:43,280
other amounts [snorts] depending on how
much of state highway we take back from

17
00:01:39,759 --> 00:01:46,159
them inside of Marian County. So it's an
offer of them saying yes, we'll try to

18
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:50,320
help out. At the same time, they're
getting something very good. I have a

19
00:01:48,479 --> 00:01:55,520
few highways I'm looking at that that
already half of the other half of that

20
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,799
highway is Marian County Roads. Um I
know it's a road and a bridge decision,

21
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:02,880
but when it comes to something of that
nature for our county, if that decision

22
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:07,520
was to go forward in any way whatsoever,
I would do it through a brief like this

23
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:11,440
and into I would want us as a whole as a
team to make that decision on what we

24
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:16,080
can't afford or can't afford at that
time. I just wanted to give you an

25
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:20,520
update of where I'm at on uh alone and
bond I believe are both Any

26
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:28,120

» Any discussion?

76
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:28,960
» Okay. Um,
just a few things. I'm assuming this

77
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:35,520
from the documents it's from the
overpayment of the jail bond

78
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:43,360
which is fine but when we look at the
treasurer total from today um they're

79
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:49,120
sitting at 301,000
and then this ordinance pulling from

80
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:54,639
unappropriated to appropriated that
leaves them about 89,000

81
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:59,440
real money real money and budgeted money
are two different things. Okay. And then

82
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:07,120
payroll is next week, which is roughly
about 35,000. So that's leaving this

83
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:11,599
fund sitting at 40, I'm sorry, $54,000.
So we appropriate this money and then

84
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:16,880
turn around and do a court order to
appropri uh to give money from county

85
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:21,919
general.
Do is there a bid? Is there something

86
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:27,120
wrong with this facility um that we need
this money appropriated or can we just

87
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:32,080
leave this be? Um because we're going to
need a court order from county general

88
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:38,800
if we move this money to have a
functioning um

89
00:07:35,039 --> 00:07:43,400
fund to pay bills with if we do payroll
and this ordinance. Thank you.

90
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:54,400
The money that we were asking for the
200,000 200 plus was the additional

91
00:07:50,479 --> 00:07:58,479
sales tax money that came in from this
0.5%

92
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:04,080
sales tax that came in. That's what we
were asking to move it over to the jail

93
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:10,240
fund in order so we could replace
and repair. One of them is a jail

94
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:15,120
software that has gone south on us that
now is

95
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:19,680
opening doors when it's not supposed to,
intercom's not working, or it's locking

96
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:23,919
doors behind people that it doesn't need
to be doing.

97
00:08:21,599 --> 00:08:28,160
This is the software, as y'all know how
computer software goes. This is a

98
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:32,959
software that was installed whenever the
jail was built in 18 and we took

99
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:37,839
possession in 19.
There was no agreement for any

100
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:44,480
maintenance on it.
We've been fighting with it. Well, since

101
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:48,880
we've been there since 13, I mean 2023.
We actually even called Swiffer to come

102
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:54,800
over, the people that installed it. But
they they charge you $5,000 a hit to

103
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:59,360
come over just to look at something.
They decide to fix it or they decide

104
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:03,680
they want to try to fix it. Usually they
end up taking the computer and all and

105
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:08,240
then you're just sitting there floating
in water. So the money, I don't know

106
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:14,519
what she was exactly talking about
there, but the money is the money that

107
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,519
would came in from the sales tax.

108
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:25,720
I assume the money that came in from the
sales tax was going to be used to

109
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:41,680
according to Russo there's just so many
things that you can use it for. I mean

110
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:46,720
he came to the corn court meeting last
two times ago

111
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,720
» additional transfer money or we

112
00:09:54,240 --> 00:10:07,440
So if Annie
if the fund if we transfer this and for

113
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:13,040
payroll not this time but following how
much do you estimate if that's the case

114
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:19,600
if that's the case would you have to
come for to county general far to the

115
00:10:15,279 --> 00:10:24,519
end of the year. How much
>> have in the budget there's money sitting

116
00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:33,120
that's not changing. This is outside of
the budget. So, we're not changing our

117
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:37,120
budget at all. We're not changing what
we're

118
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:41,440
asking to hold this money so we can
afford to do the things that have to get

119
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:46,640
done.
not changing county jail

120
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:51,279
all year long with a [clears throat]
court order. I do it for I do it for

121
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:55,600
three different accounts.
>> So I'm I I'm missing something here

122
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:04,320
because I'm hear I think I'm hearing two
different things.

123
00:10:58,079 --> 00:11:09,680
So, the the bond money that we got back,
uh the bond money that we got back was

124
00:11:06,959 --> 00:11:17,440
supposed to
um sub like subtract what

125
00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:26,240
money was
the conditional transfers that 318 was

126
00:11:21,279 --> 00:11:32,399
allowed. this um bond money we got back
was supposed to alleviate some of the

127
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:36,959
burden that the conditional transfers
that they originally allowed. Um but now

128
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:42,800
they're wanting to appropriate it
instead of subtracting from that county

129
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:49,519
general burden, which okay, technically
yes, they could.

130
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:56,079
But looking at the real money,
this money has already been put into

131
00:11:52,320 --> 00:12:03,920
318. I have an email that says yes, it
was put into 38 when the check came in

132
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:08,160
from the bank. So including
this

133
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:15,200
um bond money
as it sits, we only have 301,000.

134
00:12:12,639 --> 00:12:22,480
So unappropriated money, real money,
just period. That includes what they

135
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:28,959
have budgeted. Okay. So when you take
that 202,000 that they're asking and

136
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:36,240
appropriate it,
that that leaves a remainder of possible

137
00:12:33,279 --> 00:12:41,760
monies to be spent at 89.
And then payroll's next week. And so you

138
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:47,760
subtract another 35,000 and that leaves
54

139
00:12:43,519 --> 00:12:52,639
available money period to be spent. Now
that's not including bills they have

140
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:58,320
coming in. So that just leaves it for
that conditional transfer to move from

141
00:12:55,279 --> 00:13:02,320
county general real money
318 to support it.

142
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,880
» Which if this money if this money was
not there, Cheyenne, we'd be doing that

143
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,440
anyway.
>> Yes. But

144
00:13:05,680 --> 00:13:11,839
» but you say it's supposed to be doing
this according to who? Because we talked

145
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,519
to Russo about it
that because we didn't we weren't in

146
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:18,800
that conversation.
>> I thought it was a countywide.

147
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:24,160
» When the money came in 600, $700,000 I
just as

148
00:13:21,519 --> 00:13:30,200
I just went, "Oh, good. We're not going
to have to take as much from county

149
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,200
general to year end

150
00:13:30,959 --> 00:13:36,720
because we're now
>> I mean

151
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:44,079
» if we move this money or we don't move
this money a court order is going to be

152
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:49,399
needed I guess regardless
we assume

153
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,399
» how much

154
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:55,120
I mean if that money hadn't come in we
would still be pulling money out of

155
00:13:53,680 --> 00:14:00,639
county general.
>> It's not It's already It's not

156
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:06,240
appropriated, but it's approved.
>> We were just trying to get it moved over

157
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:11,279
so we could do some maintenance.
Building's 9 years old or whatever it is

158
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:14,279
now
software.

159
00:14:16,079 --> 00:14:24,320
So this is the what came in after the
March when the thing stopped when all

160
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:28,079
the tax stopped. This is the excess that
just kept funneling through.

161
00:14:25,519 --> 00:14:31,120
» It actually came in in after April and
May and this is the remainder of it that

162
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,680
has come in
>> which it was only ear for jail

163
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:41,519
maintenance andor
>> operations. Yes.

164
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:44,000
» If it's anywhere else it's illegal. I
mean it's or it's not supposed to be

165
00:14:42,639 --> 00:14:48,079
spent anywhere else.
>> According to Russo, that's true. That's

166
00:14:46,079 --> 00:14:52,000
the way I understood it.
>> Okay.

167
00:14:49,760 --> 00:15:00,399
So whether it gets it has to be spent in
the jail or just sit there.

168
00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:05,440
» That's why it was appropriated into
fund is so it cannot be spent anywhere

169
00:15:02,959 --> 00:15:10,880
else. So if it's appropriated or not,
it's going to sit in 38 until it's spent

170
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:14,320
this year, 5 years, 20 years from now.
It's not going to be spent anywhere else

171
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:18,480
except for in the jail because it was
receded in to the correct fund.

172
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:22,639
» Right. So,
>> and it's supposed to roll over into next

173
00:15:20,399 --> 00:15:26,639
year and the following year. Whatever's
left, you know, it's we're not looking

174
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:30,720
to spend it. But there are things that's
got to be updated,

175
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:34,320
» but it budgets get budgeted every year.
Nothing rolls over. That's why you

176
00:15:32,639 --> 00:15:37,680
budgeting
budget every year.

177
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:41,639
» The appropriations do not roll. the real
money if there's

178
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,639
» to question.

179
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:58,959
So, if I'm hearing this correct, at the
end of the day, whether

180
00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:02,160
we move this ordinance forward or not,
we're still going to be in a position

181
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,240
where we're going to have fixed items at
the sheriff's office.

182
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:08,480
» Exactly.
>> No matter what the situation is.

183
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:12,240
» Exactly. And
with the discussion about coming out of

184
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,560
county general, that's just going to be
something that's going to

185
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,279
» going to happen.
>> Yeah.

186
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:20,880
» Am I correct?
>> What we're waiting what we're wanting to

187
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:26,320
do is just put it over there in pot to
be able to fix things that's come up.

188
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:32,160
» Have to burden the county general for it
all. I mean, software's they're

189
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:35,160
estimating that's like $300,000.
>> Yeah.

190
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:45,360
high techch the high techch world of it
is going skyhigh right now for some

191
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:48,560
reason
>> it's [clears throat]

192
00:16:46,959 --> 00:16:55,360
from a different line of work it's been
that way for a couple years now so it's

193
00:16:51,839 --> 00:16:59,720
it's nothing new it's
all right do we have any other

194
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,720
discussion

195
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:07,520
since there's no other discussion I will
entertain a vote

196
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:10,520
All in favor?
>> I

197
00:17:19,120 --> 00:17:24,199
have
resolution

198
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:35,520
and this is on a grant application to
the Arkansas GIS Agency to help with

199
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:41,520
some funding.
to get unmapped subdivisions and other

200
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:47,039
unmapped subdivisions in the area
mapped. Um,

201
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:51,440
from the email from Tina Cole says, "My
understanding is these funds are already

202
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:58,720
in the budget for the assessor's office,
so we are not requesting any new funds."

203
00:17:55,919 --> 00:18:02,782
» Oh, good. Okay. Sorry. I
I'm still stuck on the last one.

204
00:18:00,762 --> 00:18:02,782
[laughter]

205
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:08,880
All right. I'm gonna go ahead and read
the title. Be it resolved by the quorum

206
00:18:07,039 --> 00:18:12,640
court of Marian County, state of
Arkansas, a resolution entitled a

207
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:17,200
resolution to authorize Marian County
Assessor to apply for funding for the

208
00:18:14,799 --> 00:18:22,240
mapping of unmapped properties in Maring
County, Arkansas.

209
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:25,919
May I get a motion?
>> May I get a second?

210
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,919
» Second.
>> Discussion.

211
00:18:31,360 --> 00:18:39,520
I know what unmapped properties is.
Sounds like unapproved subdivisions.

212
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,520
They're unapproved. And why should they
be?

213
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,840
Um,

214
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:54,520
I don't know a whole lot about this, but
subdivisions

215
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:10,120
all mapped and into this

216
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:16,280
» is a data scout.
>> Yeah. [snorts] Okay.

217
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:28,720
» Subdivision as a whole is mapped, but
the people's individual

218
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,720
» homes inside that subdivision are not
mapped.

219
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:41,799
» So like Ashley Estates down on 14 South
is not what you're talking about. That's

220
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,799
not an approved subdivision.

221
00:19:57,679 --> 00:20:02,919
I've got some of them taped to my wall
at the office.

222
00:20:13,039 --> 00:20:21,200
Now, is it is the definition of the
lines not mapped in data scout or is it

223
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:26,120
the definition of who owns the parcel?
>> The line.

224
00:20:21,919 --> 00:20:26,120
» It's the actual lines. Okay.

225
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,159
help do that.

226
00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:48,600
That's my 27,000.

227
00:20:55,679 --> 00:20:59,240
Any other discussion?

228
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:08,039
Since those there's no other discussion,
I'll entertain a vote. All in favor? I

229
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,440
» Are you going to fill in?
>> Yep.

230
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:19,039
» Okay.
>> Promise.

231
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:22,504
Waiting for Marcus to come back from
Springfield, but he's probably glad

232
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:27,520
drinking a beer or something right now.
[laughter]

233
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:32,080
» All right, you're up. Let me go ahead
and read an ordinance [clears throat]

234
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:36,000
being enacted by the quorum court of
Marian County, Arkansas. An ordinance to

235
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:41,919
be entitled an ordinance amending the
annual operating budget and numbers and

236
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:46,640
compensation ordinance 2025.56
for calendar year 2026 for Marian

237
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:56,000
County, Arkansas. Transfer
unappropriated funds from 3088 library

state aid to 3088 period 06000
library state aid Marian County Library

239
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:08,559
for construction and repairs at the
Marian County Library, excuse me,

240
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:14,919
library. May I get a motion?
May I get a second? Second

241
00:22:11,919 --> 00:22:14,919
» discussion.

242
00:22:15,679 --> 00:22:25,760
One thing I noticed is we're asking
for 80,000

243
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:30,880
and one of the bids I'm looking at is
54450. Is that for cost overrun?

244
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:36,400
» Uh no, that's for the cost excluding the
guttering. The guttering is 3,000. So,

245
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:41,200
we're less than less than $60,000, but
apparently somebody said we need to ask

246
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:46,159
for more for whatever reason. But, uh,
to give you a scenario on the library,

247
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:52,080
nobody remembers the last time the
exterior of the library was anything

248
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:58,720
done to it. We have a sopet laying on
the on the ground. All that the material

249
00:22:55,600 --> 00:23:05,200
at the top, the wood is rotting out.
This is going to be a an an intensive

250
00:23:01,679 --> 00:23:09,600
labor job. Probably using two lifts on
most of the job because the soften

251
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:14,720
fascia that has to be covered. I don't
think one guy can do an 8 foot on a lift

252
00:23:12,159 --> 00:23:19,919
or whatever. So the the lift expense is
going to be exorbitant.

253
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:26,720
We put out bids in the echo on our
website al also in the marquee. I think

254
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:32,480
here we got one bed stone construction
out of Carter and Mickey Griffin is

255
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:38,000
coming out of retirement to help on the
job. So if anybody knows Brad and

256
00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:42,080
Mickey, the job will be done right. We
only got the one one bid and we had to

257
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:48,559
pull teeth to get the one bit. This is a
miserable labor job. I will tell you all

258
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:52,640
right now. And uh uh
probably you if you want to I'll meet

259
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:57,760
you up some there sometime and take a
look at it and you will appreciate it.

260
00:23:54,720 --> 00:24:02,640
Everything is so high nowadays anyway.
But I feel very confident in the people

261
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:07,520
that we've got to work on the job. And
they said that if they got the job they

262
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:11,600
would start it and finish it. Okay. It's
not going to be drug to go to the next

263
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:17,360
job for a couple days with clean up
every day. Uh, and I I think we're

264
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:24,240
transferring money out of state out of
state library money into

265
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:29,039
line item to do it. So, we it needs to
be done. The longer it goes, the more

266
00:24:27,039 --> 00:24:33,840
problems and the bid we have is
basically on what we see. Really don't

267
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:39,520
think we're going to see a whole lot
more. But, you know, as well as I do,

268
00:24:36,799 --> 00:24:45,600
what you don't see is going to come bite
you sometime. So questions on what I'm

269
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:48,480
just tried to explain or anything, but
>> I've been there.

270
00:24:46,559 --> 00:24:51,279
» Okay. You you you
>> Well, I mean, personally, I've been

271
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,760
there. You you think that you're going
to do XYZ and you get underneath, you

272
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,960
know, when you get in your sophets, your
fascia.

273
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:03,600
» So, this is something that's been put
off and it

274
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:08,080
we've got the money. We have a lot of
money sitting there and we think that

275
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:13,039
this money sitting there will be better
used here than sitting there. So it's

276
00:25:11,120 --> 00:25:21,120
not going to do anything to the county
or anything. So appreciate your support

277
00:25:16,159 --> 00:25:28,000
and hope so that we can
have it done before winter.

278
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:33,360
I I was hoping for more bids, but I
think most people look at I can find an

279
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:38,039
easier job than this one. Okay. So,
that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

280
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:38,039
Okay.

281
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:46,080
» Any other discussion?
Since there's no other discussion, I

282
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:52,559
