1
00:01:54,079 --> 00:02:00,799
I will call to order the board of county
commissioners of Moso County, Kansas.

2
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:04,399
This is Tuesday, August the 25th, 2026.
It's 1:00 and this is a regular meeting.

3
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:07,799
Will stand for the pledge of allegiance
and the invocation.

4
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:17,040
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the
United States of America and to the

5
00:02:14,239 --> 00:02:21,120
republic for which it stands. One nation
under God, indivisible, with liberty and

6
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,560
justice for all.
>> You'll stay standing.

7
00:02:24,239 --> 00:02:33,040
» Will you pray with me? Heavenly Father
God, we come to you today and uh the

8
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:37,920
words of scripture just mediate through
my head right now. And I'm reminded of

9
00:02:35,519 --> 00:02:42,879
what it says in Ephesians. Do not be
anxious about anything, but by prayer

10
00:02:40,319 --> 00:02:47,840
and petition with thanksgiving, present
requests to God. A and God, we come to

11
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,599
you today and we do that. We are
thankful for this nation. We are

12
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:56,239
thankful for this community and we're
thankful that we have you to lead us.

13
00:02:54,319 --> 00:03:00,879
And it's because of that, because of
your word, we come to you. We we request

14
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:06,400
these things that you will take any
anxious thoughts away from us. that we

15
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:10,640
will sit, we will listen, and we will
trust in you, and that we'll have the

16
00:03:08,879 --> 00:03:15,280
peace that surpasses all understanding
that only comes

17
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:17,200
with your blessing. In Jesus name we
pray. Amen.

18
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,080
» Amen.
>> Amen. Thank you.

19
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,840
» All right. Do we have anything to add to
the agenda?

20
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:42,680
» I am nosy. Couple things
removal of Tasha.

21
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:42,680
» Okay, we can take Tasha off.

22
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:51,440
» So, we need to add transfer.
>> Yes.

23
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:57,760
» So, unfinished business, I guess.
>> Old business.

24
00:03:54,319 --> 00:04:03,280
» Can you switch that to old business?
>> Sure.

25
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,280
Kind of the same thing.

26
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:12,040
What did you want to do?
I don't have anything else.

27
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:18,280
» Add me under Mike there.

28
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:23,079
Department update, please.

29
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:38,759
NRP under consent agenda.
We have two

30
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:48,280
miles.

31
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:55,960
» All right.
Commission comments or reports.

32
00:04:56,479 --> 00:05:02,720
I have done with it.
>> So last week I went to the CIC

33
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:07,360
conference. It was very insightful.
Enjoyed being there even though a lot of

34
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:13,680
it was over my head. But it's our
software program that we use for

35
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:17,280
finance, financial reports, etc. Um so
it was very well attended and just a

36
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:22,160
little bit more respect for the company
and um what's coming for the future. So

37
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:27,680
they had a lot of good things to say.
And then I'd like to take this time also

38
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:32,639
to thank our emergency
um departments, our 911 and emergency

39
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:37,120
management and volunteer fire
departments and uh I think the sheriff's

40
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:43,360
department really was involved in the
fire that happened early Monday morning.

41
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:47,280
I just appreciate all of them
being there and and taking care of that

42
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:54,000
situation. So those things are really
tough. So we just really pray for that

43
00:05:50,240 --> 00:06:01,240
family. um that did suffer that loss.
So, it's really tough.

44
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,240
Okay, public comment.

45
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:09,000
Seeing none,
go on to the consent agenda.

46
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:28,600
So, I'll make a motion that we approve
the consent agenda as presented, which

47
00:06:23,919 --> 00:06:28,600
includes accounts payable of 378,39233,

48
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:34,600
payroll clearing of 20735441,

49
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:40,720
one department head leave request, and
two NRPS.

50
00:06:39,840 --> 00:06:46,720
» I'll second.
>> I'll second.

51
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:51,560
» All those in favor? I motion carried.
>> Laura second.

52
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:51,560
» Yes. Yes.

53
00:06:53,600 --> 00:07:00,400
» All right. So, we're on to scheduled
attendees. We have IMA here today to

54
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:06,800
talk about our
renewals for health insurance.

55
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,880
Always a fun subject.
>> I bring better news this year than last

56
00:07:08,479 --> 00:07:13,440
year.
>> Much better news than last year.

57
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:17,440
» Okay. Well, you're welcome.
We appreciate all you guys do for us.

58
00:07:15,599 --> 00:07:22,479
» Thank you. I appreciate you guys for
continuing to partner with us. Um

59
00:07:21,039 --> 00:07:26,960
believe I met most of you guys last
year, but you know, as I mentioned, this

60
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:32,319
renewal is a lot better than what last
year looked like. So, I'm I'm happy to

61
00:07:28,479 --> 00:07:35,919
be here to to present.
Okay.

62
00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:39,680
So, if we want to go ahead and get
started, um here on the first page, I

63
00:07:37,919 --> 00:07:45,440
just have a a quick executive summary
really highlighting all the different

64
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:50,240
medical, dental, vision, and um life and
disability coverages. So, the initial

65
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:55,840
Blue Cross of Kansas medical renewal did
come in at a 4.4%

66
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:59,520
overall increase. Um, you know, based on
how the plan is running and and really

67
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,960
given kind of last year's renewal
increase, we were able to get a

68
00:08:00,879 --> 00:08:08,400
concession off that initial renewal to
bring it down to just under 1%. Which,

69
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:13,280
um, in the market today, a 1% renewal is
unheard of. Um, so I'm I'm super pleased

70
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:17,039
to present this to you all today. Um, it
was it was close to about $50,000 in

71
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,960
savings off that initial renewal. So,
Blue Cross really came to the table this

72
00:08:18,639 --> 00:08:27,759
year and and provided really the best
um, offer possible.

73
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:31,680
Dental is getting a 4.1% increase. Now,
I will say on the dental side, um,

74
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:38,560
dollar amounts a lot smaller than
medical. So, that 4% overall increase is

75
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:42,800
only about $2,500 a year.
As I mentioned earlier, the the plan is

76
00:08:40,959 --> 00:08:49,120
running favorable. Um, just to give you
some insights, um, the most recent 12

77
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:54,720
months is running at a 68% loss ratio.
Um, now one caveat to that is that's

78
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:58,640
before we account for what we call IBNR.
So those are claims that likely

79
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,920
incurred, you know, last month but
haven't been paid until maybe this

80
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:06,640
month, next month. So you got to account
for that. And so um and then of course

81
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:12,240
trend trend right now is anywhere from 8
to 10% in in the medical um space. So

82
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:16,720
once you factor in those those two
pieces, that's why the the renewal did

83
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:23,040
come in at around a just under a 1%
overall increase for next year.

84
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:27,519
Also happy to to present the vision. Um
you all moved to Blue Cross with their

85
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,880
recent part partnership with IMED on the
vision plan. That's under a four-year

86
00:09:29,519 --> 00:09:35,200
rate guarantee. So those rates are going
to be locked for the next three years.

87
00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:39,200
Um so no increase on the vision side.
And then also pleased to announce on all

88
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:44,240
the ancillary benefits um there will be
no rate changes, no benefit changes,

89
00:09:41,519 --> 00:09:49,040
carrier changes, um no changes on that
side. The only one that would affect the

90
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:52,320
commission or the county um would be the
um accidental death and dismemberment.

91
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:57,399
So that's going to stay flat for that.
So when we budget that number won't

92
00:09:54,399 --> 00:09:57,399
change.

93
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:10,959
» So if we move on to the next page on our
handout, um this just really lays out

94
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:16,320
your guys's current medical benefit
plan. So we have the current plan on the

95
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:20,240
lefth hand side um what the revised
renewal came in at on the very right

96
00:10:18,079 --> 00:10:24,160
hand side. So this is just illustrating
there's going to be no benefit changes.

97
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:29,200
Um and then you can see the total
premium amounts listed at the very

98
00:10:25,839 --> 00:10:33,680
bottom. Um if you look at the the bottom
few rows, you can see the initial

99
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:38,079
renewal came in at a $63,000 overall
increase. The revised renewal with that

100
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:41,480
concession came in at about a $14,000
total increase.

101
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:55,120
So, as we look at the next few pages,
there's going to be a lot of numbers on

102
00:10:52,880 --> 00:11:00,320
here, so bear with me for a little bit.
Um, really, these are we we put together

103
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:05,200
a handful of illustrations on how do we
want to split out the the increase

104
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:10,880
between employees and then the county.
And so this first illustration uh on

105
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:14,240
number one here um we have the current
premiums and and what employees are

106
00:11:12,959 --> 00:11:18,720
contributing and what the county's
contributing on the lefth hand side. On

107
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:25,120
the right hand side of this exhibit you
can see what the renewal um with the

108
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:29,920
revised premiums are. Um and in this
specific illustration we're showing no

109
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:35,040
employee rate change on this exhibit.
And so you can kind of see where I've

110
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:38,720
boxed in on this slide. um indicating,
you know, employee rates would would be

111
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:43,120
staying the same. And then if you look
at the very bottom kind of bottom right

112
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:49,200
hand side, you'll see in that total
premium column, a 14 um,000 total

113
00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:52,959
increase, employee rates just to the
right of that with no annual increase.

114
00:11:51,200 --> 00:12:00,040
And then the county would be be picking
up the full 14,156

115
00:11:56,079 --> 00:12:00,040
um in this first illustration.

116
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:08,959
And so illustration two is to where is
where we start to look at maybe some

117
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:14,399
changes to the contribution structure.
Again, you can see highlighted and boxed

118
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:19,680
in the the employee rates. In this
illustration, what we wanted to show was

119
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:26,800
a slight increase on the $1,500
deductible and $2,500 deductible plans,

120
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:32,639
but keeping that $3,500 deductible plan
the same for employees. And so that's

121
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:36,639
what this illustration is showing. Um,
I'm a fan of this because it it it, you

122
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:40,480
know, incentivizes members to maybe go
to some of those higher deductible plans

123
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:45,360
because we know that, you know, likely
less than 20% of of individuals are

124
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:51,360
actually hitting those deductibles. Um,
and it's still to me what I'd consider a

125
00:12:47,279 --> 00:12:54,480
a a fair increase. And um, at the very
bottom you can see what the total dollar

126
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,920
amount split would be. and it's almost
an even slip between what the employees

127
00:12:56,399 --> 00:13:02,240
would be picking up and then what the
county would be picking up. So, to me,

128
00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:07,160
that seems like a fair kind of um
contribution on on both the county and

129
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,160
the employees.

130
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:23,360
» So, on pa pages six and seven, um a
couple more illustrations that we wanted

131
00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:28,240
to put together. And so these are all
based on the percent that employees are

132
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:31,760
paying of the total premium today. So if
you look at where I kind of have that

133
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:38,000
boxed in on the current side, just to
give an example, an employee is paying

134
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:43,440
9.3% of the total premium amount in that
$1,500 deductible plan.

135
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:52,800
What this does is is looks at bumping
that up to 10% and then 20% for the um

136
00:13:48,639 --> 00:14:00,320
employee plus tiers on that $1,500 plan.
On the $2,500 plan, it shows employees

137
00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:03,839
paying 5% of total premium and then 15%
on the employee spouse, children, and

138
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:08,880
family tiers.
And then on the last plan, the $3,500

139
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:14,079
deductible plan, wanted to still keep
that at zero dollars for employee only.

140
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:20,000
Um, but it does bump up those employee
plus tiers to a 10% of total premium.

141
00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:24,079
And then again, at the very bottom, you
can see kind of the total breakout. Um,

142
00:14:22,639 --> 00:14:29,519
this would provide actually a little bit
of savings to the county of about $1,600

143
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:34,600
a year versus what you're paying today.
And that's at that bottom right hand

144
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,600
side on the chart.

145
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:41,440
And then the last medical illustration
is really kind of this a similar

146
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:46,560
philosophy, but it's just a little bit
um higher on the employee percent of

147
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:50,240
total premium. So instead of 10%, we're
showing 11. It it's essentially a

148
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:55,040
percent higher on on on all the
different tiers. And so you can see what

149
00:14:52,560 --> 00:15:00,160
that does at the very bottom right hand
side um to to what the county's paying

150
00:14:58,079 --> 00:15:06,720
for health insurance. it'd be about a
$13,000 decrease over current when we

151
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:10,160
look at the county's portion.
And so I'll I'll I'll pause there. I

152
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:16,320
know there's a lot of numbers, a lot of
different illustrations. Um any

153
00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:21,000
questions on um at least the medical
contributions and and what we've shown

154
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,000
today?

155
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,480
Okay.

156
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:40,720
So then we can move on to the dental.
And so as I mentioned, the dental plan

157
00:15:38,399 --> 00:15:47,760
is getting about a 4% overall increase.
It's about $2,500 annually. Um you can

158
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:52,639
look at the premium amounts listed um on
on this slide nine and you'll see a lot

159
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:57,759
of these are only going up maybe a
dollar, some few cents. Um, and so

160
00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:02,000
dental dental rates are staying pretty
pretty relatively the same, but we do

161
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:07,639
have a few different contribution
illustrations on the dental side as well

162
00:16:03,519 --> 00:16:07,639
that I wanted to walk through.

163
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:17,360
So the first contribution illustration
on page 10, um, similar to the medical,

164
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:21,360
um, wanted to show one illustration of
keeping employee contributions the same

165
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:25,440
as as it is today.
Um, and so that would mean that the

166
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:32,880
county will be picking up the full
$2,500 annual increase.

167
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:38,720
Option two, um, listed right below that
is splitting the percent equally between

168
00:16:35,519 --> 00:16:43,680
the employees and the employer. And so
it'd be about a 4% increase to the

169
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:48,320
employees, a 4% increase to the county.
Um, and if you look at the very bottom,

170
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:54,000
you can see, um, employees would be
would be picking up about $350.

171
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:59,399
The county would be picking up 2,200 of
that that $2,500 total increase.

172
00:17:07,199 --> 00:17:14,480
Page 12 looks at the third contribution
illustration. And so what this one does

173
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:19,439
is split the dollar amount in increase
equally between the county and the

174
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:25,039
employees. Um as you saw on that last
that last slide, um splitting the

175
00:17:21,919 --> 00:17:28,960
percent increase was um because the
dollar amounts are so low, it it's

176
00:17:26,959 --> 00:17:33,840
pretty minimal on the employees. This
this one actually splits it dollar

177
00:17:30,799 --> 00:17:38,720
amount-wise equally to where you still
have a zero dollar employee only option

178
00:17:35,679 --> 00:17:42,400
on that base plan, which is great. Um,
but from a dollar amount wise, the

179
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:45,440
employees would be picking up about
$1,200 of the increase and then the

180
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:52,679
county would be picking up the remaining
1,200. So, it's a pretty equal split um,

181
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,679
dollar amount wise between the two.

182
00:17:53,919 --> 00:18:03,200
And then the last illustration we put
together was this number four. And so

183
00:17:59,039 --> 00:18:06,400
what this does is essentially um does
not increase what the county is

184
00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:11,440
contributing
um at all while still maintaining that

185
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:16,160
$0 base employee only amount. So it
would keep the county's budget the same

186
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:21,400
as it is today. Um that $2,500 increase
would would fall onto the employees in

187
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,400
this scenario.

188
00:18:27,679 --> 00:18:32,120
Any questions on the dental
contributions?

189
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,640
Okay.

190
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:43,600
And so, um, the last piece, since a lot
of the lines of coverage are are under

191
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:48,880
guarantee or not changing, really, it's
just focusing on the medical and dental,

192
00:18:45,919 --> 00:18:54,960
um, it would be our recommendation to to
continue um, partnering with Blue Cross

193
00:18:51,120 --> 00:18:58,720
at that 1% overall increase. On the
contribution side, we do have a

194
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:02,240
recommendation of that that second
illustration that equally split the

195
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:07,120
increase between employees and the
county. Um, obviously want that to be up

196
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:10,799
for, you know, discussion, but I feel
like that that was the one that was the

197
00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:14,000
most fair. It's typically what we see
when we work with other employers is

198
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:19,679
finding a way to split the cost, you
know, equally between employees and the

199
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:23,760
in the county or the employer.
And then keeping that that similar

200
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:28,240
philosophy, it would be that uh dental
illustration number three that split the

201
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:33,760
employee dollar amount increase equally
between the employee and the county. Um

202
00:19:31,919 --> 00:19:37,280
I think it it shares that that same
philosophy of hey, we're going to split

203
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:41,039
this equally between us on the medical
and dental side. So that that

204
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:44,760
illustration three would be our
recommendation as well.

205
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:57,000
thoughts or questions or scenarios that
you would like to see instead?

206
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,160
» Not right now.

207
00:20:21,679 --> 00:20:28,320
No difference on the prescription plan
within these?

208
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:31,840
» No changes on the prescription plan. Um
there will always be maybe some tweaks

209
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:35,440
to Bluec Cross's formulary. They do that
throughout the year, but we're not

210
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,400
changing, you know, drug formularies or
we're not, you know, changing the

211
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,400
prescription co-pays or anything like
that.

212
00:20:48,799 --> 00:20:53,039
Okay. Sorry. Back on page number three,
just so I know. [clears throat]

213
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:57,039
» Yep.
>> Renewal and then you have revised

214
00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,159
renewal. So, what's the difference
there?

215
00:20:57,919 --> 00:21:04,480
» Yeah. So, I just put that initial
renewal on there just to illustrate

216
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:08,000
where it was initially coming in at. So,
that's where that's what Bluec Cross was

217
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:12,400
initially trying to pass along for the
increase. the revised renewals with the

218
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:17,240
concession and and the final rates we
have available today

219
00:21:13,679 --> 00:21:17,240
» that N8%.

220
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,799
» Yeah,
>> we're shooting for zero, but I mean 0.98

221
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,799
is is pretty good.
>> Yeah.

222
00:21:40,159 --> 00:21:45,679
Yeah, those are pretty incredible.
>> Yeah, I mean I we're start it's renewal

223
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,480
season right now, so we're starting to
get a lot of these in and this is the

224
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,520
first one I've been able to present
that's in the single digits. So I was

225
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,799
super happy.
>> Well, I know others around [snorts] the

226
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,799
county haven't been so fortunate.
>> I know. So

227
00:21:55,919 --> 00:22:02,080
» yeah,
>> we're we're seeing mo most people in

228
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:06,480
that 10 to 15% range at a minimum. So,
you know, under 1% is excellent.

229
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,520
» And I do think Blue Cross and Blue
Shield is best we can give for our

230
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:14,240
employees. So,
>> yeah.

231
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:19,440
» Okay. We will be looking into that.
>> Um, as far as the timeline goes, if we

232
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:23,840
could get a decision maybe by the next
commission meeting. That way we don't

233
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:28,000
have to rush as much trying to get
everything together for open enrollment

234
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:32,880
and the health fair time to actually get
the documents put together, the benefit

235
00:22:30,159 --> 00:22:34,400
booklets printed, etc.
>> Um,

236
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,640
» you'll be here before we know it.
>> It would be helpful.

237
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,039
» Open enrollment.
>> I'm sorry. [clears throat]

238
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:43,600
» Open enrollment
>> is at the last week in October and it's

239
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:47,440
going to go through that first Monday of
November because I have a capers

240
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:50,960
conference on Friday of that week. So, I
want to make sure it's exactly five days

241
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:55,280
for all the employees.
Um, the health fair is I didn't bring my

242
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:59,440
calendar. It's that Friday before open
enrollment. I think it's the 23rd of

243
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:05,159
October.
>> I think that's right.

244
00:23:02,159 --> 00:23:05,159
» Yes.

245
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:10,720
And then, yeah, by if we could make a
decision by the next um commission

246
00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:14,000
meeting, it would give us time to even
get the contracts and everything signed

247
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:19,960
and in place before we print the
booklets as well.

248
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,960
change

249
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:32,320
our budgets between now and next
business or do you want it under the

250
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:35,919
schedule of
>> it would just be

251
00:23:33,919 --> 00:23:38,159
» yeah Nick wouldn't unless he really
really wants to come back but it would

252
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,799
just [laughter] be
>> it's probably needed in some other

253
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,520
counties that
>> oh gosh

254
00:23:41,679 --> 00:23:47,200
» cities that don't have such good news.
>> Yeah. He's told me some stories,

255
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:51,039
» some horse.
>> I'm like, wow. That's if you can

256
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:56,480
imagine, it's even worse than what we
had last year.

257
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:58,720
» So, we are very, very blessed. So,
>> all right.

258
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:02,520
» Thanks. Thank you guys.
>> Thank you very much.

259
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,520
» Y

260
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,440
» All right.

261
00:24:06,799 --> 00:24:15,840
Our county
ambulance service

262
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:19,679
Ditchie.
>> So when got numbers

263
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:23,520
» risen, how do you say your last name?
>> Risac. R E I S.

264
00:24:21,279 --> 00:24:26,320
» R E I S S.
>> It's not grass. There's only one.

265
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:32,240
» I just want to make sure the newspaper
gets it right today.

266
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:37,520
» Um, so I went and got numbers. What I
started with, I started with comparable

267
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:43,600
what the Suburban was. Um those numbers
will scare you. Uh a wag grant. So

268
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:47,840
little preference. I I contacted all the
dealerships in the county. The only one.

269
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:51,279
» Can you go back and explain why we're
doing this?

270
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:57,120
» Okay. So the two 20 2012 Suburban that
we had we've had since 2012.

271
00:24:54,799 --> 00:25:00,480
» Uh wasn't
um we responded to a call of deer came

272
00:24:58,799 --> 00:25:05,840
out of a ditch, hit on the right front
bumper. It broke off the airbag sensor

273
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:11,279
and deployed every airbag in the truck.
$3,000 worth of bumper and door damage,

274
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:15,679
almost 12 to $13,000 worth of airbag
damage. So, they totaled it. So,

275
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,760
» so we're looking for a new a
replacement.

276
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:24,320
» A replacement.
>> Insurance is going to help pay for this.

277
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:29,520
» Um I think they gave us $5,000
because of the year on it. It wasn't

278
00:25:26,159 --> 00:25:33,039
very much. I think the whole I think our
deductible on it was 5,000. So, I think

279
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:40,400
we got 5,000. and it was like right at
10 counting tax and all that stuff. So

280
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:46,240
anyway, um so I I contacted every
dealership. Um Ford never even responded

281
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:50,720
to me and I spoke to someone personally
and gave him my cell phone number, which

282
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,520
I don't give out regularly. Um they
didn't even respond back with any kind

283
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:59,760
of bid at all.
um the Chevy dealership sent me a link

284
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:04,240
to what they had on the lot
um with some prefaces to like a pickup.

285
00:26:02,159 --> 00:26:10,960
I'm like, "Okay." I contacted Shields.
Shields actually worked and um came up

286
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:15,600
with numbers for me. In due diligence, I
contacted Parks in Augusta, which is

287
00:26:13,039 --> 00:26:20,000
where the sheriff's office had bought
Chevy pickups.

288
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:23,440
» Um they were very actable, gave me
pricing, too. So, I have pricing from

289
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:27,120
both of those, but I wanted to give you
kind of a rundown of where to be

290
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:33,080
comparable and then where I was headed.
Um, so a Grand Wagon Ear since Chevy did

291
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,080
respon

292
00:26:35,919 --> 00:26:42,480
is like trying to find a unicorn
um because of the state pricing and

293
00:26:40,559 --> 00:26:45,679
stuff. It's like if somebody has one,
they won't release it and trying you're

294
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,600
going to have to go personally go lot to
lot to lot trying to find one.

295
00:26:47,679 --> 00:26:52,640
» Um, kind of the same way with the Ford
stuff.

296
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:56,480
Um, but they were able to give me
pricing for a Grand Wagon Ear or they

297
00:26:55,360 --> 00:27:00,000
were not able to give me a Grand Wagon
ear. All they gave me was for a

298
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:04,480
Tradesman pickup and a Durango because
that's what they had available to them.

299
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:09,039
So, a trademan's pickup is the same as
what the sheriff's office drives. Uh,

300
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:16,480
the Durango are the same as what KHP
drives to give you some

301
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:20,799
visual in your head. Um, Shields went as
far as to do comparable of what the

302
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:26,320
Suburban would be. So, a Suburban, which
would be the same size as a Grand Wagon

303
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:31,039
Ear L, would be 69,500.
If you go with a Grand Wagon Ear um just

304
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:36,840
a plain Grand, not the L, that's a
comparable to a Tahoe, which is 66,796.

305
00:27:37,360 --> 00:27:44,120
If we go down to a Tradesman, what they
have is $49,59.

306
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:53,760
Um, and then Durango.
Um, they they don't have a Pursuit,

307
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:58,240
which is exactly what, uh, KHP drives.
Um, they are 41,693.

308
00:27:56,559 --> 00:28:03,120
They have one that's available right
now, um, for 43. It's just, it's a

309
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:07,360
little bit different. It's got a V6 in
it and it's a the package is just like

310
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:11,720
it's got electric seats in it. And that
one there is 431 163.

311
00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:20,320
and parks
which the only place that are comp that

312
00:28:19,039 --> 00:28:26,399
they're giving apples to apples or
orange or whatever you put it are the

313
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:33,360
tradesman truck on site at um parks is
51,518

314
00:28:29,039 --> 00:28:38,080
and the Durango is 44358.
So you're talking

315
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:41,120
» negligible money. Now
here's where it gets worse

316
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:47,039
» worse.
>> But you love those words, right?

317
00:28:43,039 --> 00:28:53,360
So, I called KHP because they do they
only run their vehicles to 50,000. So,

318
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:57,240
for a 2024 uh Dodge Durango with 50,000
miles is $41,325.

319
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:05,039
Now, the reason that is that way is
because there is $8,000 worth of uh

320
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:09,360
lighting system on the truck and a push
guard.

321
00:29:06,399 --> 00:29:13,600
So, all these other ones with $50,000
meth will have almost a $10,000 upcharge

322
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:18,640
to be able to put that and the graphics
and all that stuff on. I just want to be

323
00:29:15,679 --> 00:29:21,840
very clear about why that is. Now, KHP
with only 50,000 miles, you don't know

324
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:28,159
how many hours that vehicle is set and
ran. It could have hundreds of hours on

325
00:29:24,399 --> 00:29:34,080
it. So, in my opinion, it's easier to go
with the newer the new one and then put

326
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:40,240
the light system on it. I mean, I
realize that raises the the Durango to

327
00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:43,840
somewhere around 55 both places. Um, and
that also puts a push guard on the front

328
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,440
of them
>> and everything. I just

329
00:29:45,919 --> 00:29:51,039
» can you hit another deer?
>> That's [laughter]

330
00:29:49,039 --> 00:29:53,840
or a possum.
I mean, I hear you okay with the

331
00:29:52,799 --> 00:29:58,960
Durango. You don't
>> Yes. Here's the problem. So, the

332
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:03,039
» I give you the wagon ear stuff. Those
are 90 days out from possibly even

333
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:08,720
getting one.
the trucks or the Durango, either one

334
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:12,960
can be in this week.
My personal opinion, I would rather have

335
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:17,679
the Durango because we carry meds and I
carry equipment and everything and being

336
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,919
in one solid area and I can control the
environment

337
00:30:18,559 --> 00:30:24,559
» is better than having the pickup. I'm
not saying I can't do with the pickup,

338
00:30:22,159 --> 00:30:28,399
but the Durango makes more sense to me
because I control everything

339
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:33,200
» and it's cheaper.
Well, I get that. But I I just the SUV

340
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:36,559
means more to me than the pickup. I
mean, yeah, in the end of it, I give it

341
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,159
to Mike and he can do something with it.
But I I have if I try to put stuff in

342
00:30:38,159 --> 00:30:44,399
the bed of it, I'm have to have a a box
that tries to keep dust out, all that

343
00:30:42,559 --> 00:30:48,399
stuff. You know, my monitors cost
$60,000. I'd really rather keep it

344
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,520
someplace that is cleaner and that kind
of stuff. Not that I can't keep it in

345
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:55,200
the back seat, but if I throw somebody
in there, then I got to move stuff out.

346
00:30:53,279 --> 00:31:01,600
That's the reason. There are no third
rows in these Durango. So that area back

347
00:30:58,159 --> 00:31:07,840
there is my area to keep my equipment.
So basically what I'm trying to say is

348
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:11,760
um for a Dango it could be 55,000
and for a pickup it could be well

349
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:17,200
depending on which one it is it could be
61,000. So you're of the two but the

350
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:20,320
Dango to me makes more sense is where I
would like to be with it. Now that the

351
00:31:18,399 --> 00:31:24,399
lighting system I could there might be a
chance to depending on what console is

352
00:31:21,919 --> 00:31:28,640
in the Durango and who we get it from.
There might be a difference uh for a box

353
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:32,880
where I mount my radios might go down.
It just all depends on and it's

354
00:31:30,559 --> 00:31:39,519
availability of what how they come. So I
just want to give you worst case

355
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:42,799
scenario then and maybe come back less.
And when you look at it Shields is I

356
00:31:41,919 --> 00:31:45,600
mean it's local
>> cheaper.

357
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:48,399
» Um let's see.
>> Yeah, just a little bit. I mean, they're

358
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,480
they're within 500.
>> Can they do all the work that you need

359
00:31:49,679 --> 00:31:53,360
to add all the
>> So, they can put the bumpers on them.

360
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:56,960
Now, the rad the lighting system, I'll
have that. I have a lighting guy that'll

361
00:31:54,640 --> 00:32:00,640
put all that stuff in. Um, and then the
the striping, I contacted a kid that

362
00:31:58,799 --> 00:32:04,559
used to work for me out of Kansas City.
He does he does the sheriff's vehicles.

363
00:32:02,399 --> 00:32:06,799
I mean, it's the same guy. It's Jake
Nagel Road.

364
00:32:05,279 --> 00:32:09,519
» I mean, it's better to do it local, too.
I think

365
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:13,279
» yeah I wanted I would like I mean I
realize that parks is a little bit on

366
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:16,799
some things are a little bit cheaper but
then keeping the money in the county and

367
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:20,960
keeping it local for everybody is kind
of what I'm going to do and I know that

368
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:23,279
you can't compare the two Durango
identical because they don't have

369
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:27,360
pursuit but it's
>> but it's in my mind it's negligible I

370
00:32:25,679 --> 00:32:31,919
mean I know it's five or $600 it's not
negligible my wife size when it comes to

371
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:35,279
my checkbook but
>> I was just gonna ask

372
00:32:33,519 --> 00:32:39,519
» so
>> yeah so I'm looking said, let's see,

373
00:32:37,679 --> 00:32:43,760
where's the shield one?
>> Yeah, I'd say 55 is pretty close to

374
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:48,000
where it would be. Somewhere around in
there. So, and

375
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,919
» lighting plus all the lighting.
>> That's the lighting. With the lighting

376
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:54,799
with the lighting. Yeah, because the
Durango itself is 43.

377
00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:58,640
» And if you I was just saying 10. So, 55
would be worst case scenario.

378
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,039
» And Scott said that he could have it
this week.

379
00:32:59,679 --> 00:33:05,840
» I mean, I think he's got that he might
even have that one on the lot.

380
00:33:02,799 --> 00:33:08,960
» Sounds great. So, I'll get with him and
we'll get everything done and then I'll

381
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:12,240
have him once we get everything paid for
I'll

382
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:15,440
» Yeah, I don't know what do we know like
what year it is.

383
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:18,159
» Um, the Durango he's looking at is
either a

384
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:23,840
» Hold on, I'll tell you.
>> I've got so many pieces of paper here.

385
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:26,480
This is a truly a uh eye openening
experience for me with trying to deal

386
00:33:25,039 --> 00:33:34,279
with people that you'd think one would
want to sell you something. Um,

387
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,279
where's these big paper?

388
00:33:35,679 --> 00:33:42,559
Too many papers.
>> Let's see. That Durango is a Oh, he

389
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:48,559
didn't put the year on there. I think
it's a 26. He said Oh, I know it's a 26.

390
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:51,919
He was going to do I think it's 26 or 27
pricing, but he said 26 is probably

391
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,080
where it's at in case it needed to come
down. So,

392
00:33:52,559 --> 00:33:57,600
» okay. That's new.
>> Yeah, it's brand new.

393
00:33:55,039 --> 00:34:00,240
» Okay.
We were just checking our funds to make

394
00:33:59,039 --> 00:34:04,880
sure we got enough money here.
>> Oh, I appreciate that.

395
00:34:02,559 --> 00:34:08,639
» We do. So,
glad we could do it and glad you can do

396
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,440
it local. So,
>> yeah.

397
00:34:10,079 --> 00:34:14,800
» And as I was telling you earlier
yesterday, we had a little incident. We

398
00:34:13,119 --> 00:34:19,520
blew a motor, I think, in in an
ambulance with 113,000 miles. But

399
00:34:18,240 --> 00:34:23,760
» I don't know if I'm coming back to that.
I just It's not quite the same thing as

400
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:26,240
asking you, but I just want you
>> Shouldn't have brought that up, Richard.

401
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:30,320
Huh? Shouldn't have brought that up.
>> I know. Well, it's it's a sore subject

402
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:33,760
for me, too. [laughter]
>> I'll [clears throat and snorts] make a

403
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:41,119
motion to hospital
ambulance service to use $55,000 to

404
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:44,720
purchase a new out of the ambulance
>> 255

405
00:34:43,679 --> 00:34:50,000
» 55,000
>> out of 390 the ambulance sales tax fund.

406
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:53,359
» Okay. Anything else you need from me?
>> I'll second it. Any more discussion?

407
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,679
» All those in favor?
>> I. Motion carried.

408
00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:01,839
» Thank you.
>> Thanks. Again, no change from last

409
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:06,320
meeting. The 2.35 is what we want for
2027. And doing that in two installments

410
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:10,320
rather than like we've done the last
couple years where we needed it all up

411
00:35:07,839 --> 00:35:13,480
front. Little better shape. So to do the
two installments,

412
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:34,240
So, this is a 2027 or 26
>> 26

413
00:35:33,119 --> 00:35:37,800
» 26
>> 27 price.

414
00:35:37,944 --> 00:35:41,119
[clears throat]
>> I just want to make sure I got it right.

415
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:45,280
» Yeah.
>> All right. So, now we're ready for

416
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:49,240
department heads. Gabby, thanks for
joining us.

417
00:35:46,240 --> 00:35:49,240
» Yes.

418
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:56,800
Um, I would like to call an executive
session for our non-elected personnel,

419
00:35:54,000 --> 00:36:00,160
please.
Okay, I'll move to recess into executive

420
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:03,359
session to discuss personal matters of
non-elected personnel regarding the

421
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,920
treasures department for
>> how long?

422
00:36:04,079 --> 00:36:11,040
» Um, I would say 10 minutes.
>> 10 minutes to include commission,

423
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:15,040
council, and county treasure. And we'll
come back at

424
00:36:13,359 --> 00:36:17,520
145.
>> I'll second the motion.

425
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:22,839
» All those in favor? I
>> I motion carry.

426
00:36:19,599 --> 00:36:22,839
» Thank you.

427
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:27,200
We're back in session and no action was
taken.

428
00:46:25,359 --> 00:46:32,720
Okay. So, I've got some department
updates. Um, I wanted to give you an

429
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:38,240
update for the BFA, the budgetary fund
accounting clean process. Um, I want to

430
00:46:35,839 --> 00:46:41,920
start with an update. Uh all accounts
with the exception of payroll and home

431
00:46:40,319 --> 00:46:46,720
state bank which is our main bank have
been completely corrected, reconciled,

432
00:46:44,079 --> 00:46:50,160
balanced and brought up to date. We are
expecting to have all period 13

433
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:55,680
corrections for the remaining two
accounts um completed by the end of

434
00:46:53,119 --> 00:47:00,400
September which those once those are
finished uh we'll be able to move

435
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:04,960
forward with the 2025 audit. And then
the cleanup has included but not limited

436
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:09,920
to the researching and correcting
outstanding deposits, correcting

437
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:14,160
duplicate entries and incorrect entries,
investigating errors, discrepancies, and

438
00:47:12,240 --> 00:47:20,960
other issues that have affected the
balances and also documenting all of

439
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:26,079
this as well. Um, and reviewing funds to
determine why they're long or short and

440
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:29,440
make the appropriate corrections.
Uh, one issue that has come to our

441
00:47:27,839 --> 00:47:33,839
attention during this process involves
some of the distribution funds. Um,

442
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:38,480
distribution funds should bounce back to
zero after every distribution.

443
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:42,319
And a majority of the issues we're
finding in these appear to be data entry

444
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:46,880
errors that created either a long or
short balance. So a check that was cut

445
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:54,400
to one of the entities was a penny long
or a penny short or two pennies or you

446
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:59,440
know um so uh we are currently working
through those to get them corrected and

447
00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:05,119
properly balanced.
And then on the subject of distribution

448
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:09,920
funds there's the Turkey Creek whed
number 103.

449
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:15,440
Um, Neossha receives money from Wilson
County for the shared watershed.

450
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:20,880
The money received from Wilson County is
being receded appropriately. However,

451
00:48:18,319 --> 00:48:24,400
uh, I we found that Wilson County's
portion has not been distributed since

452
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:30,280
2018.
So, the current amount in the fund is

453
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:30,280
approximately $175,76.79.

454
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:39,839
and that amount is owed to um Turkey
Creek number 103 watershed.

455
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:45,599
I have spoken with our software team on
how to correct this. I was advised that

456
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:50,319
the payout will require manual entries
in our system so the money can be

457
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:54,319
properly distributed by the um
appropriate categories such as

458
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:59,920
delinquent real estate, motor vehicle,
uh RV,

459
00:48:56,240 --> 00:49:02,800
um personal property, all that. Uh
because those details have to be

460
00:49:01,359 --> 00:49:06,559
manually entered. This will take some
time to complete because I have to

461
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:12,880
figure out what was motor vehicle prior
to me. I've saved all of my distribution

462
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:19,599
um remittance advices for Wilson County.
So I'll have to figure out the ones

463
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:23,040
prior to me and um
yeah, so I was going to take a minute

464
00:49:21,944 --> 00:49:26,559
[clears throat]
and uh but I do want you to be aware of

465
00:49:25,359 --> 00:49:29,359
it and I want you to know that I'm
working through that and I will get that

466
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:33,440
to them. So, is this a watershed that's
like in both counties that we collect

467
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:37,760
all of the property tax?
>> Yes, ma'am. We are the collectors of it

468
00:49:35,599 --> 00:49:40,800
and then we distribute Wilson County's
portion and what we receive as well with

469
00:49:40,079 --> 00:49:45,359
our taxes
>> and they haven't requested it prior to

470
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:49,760
» um
>> it was not brought to their attention.

471
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:54,000
» Yeah, it this I don't think this was
something that was known because when I

472
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:59,440
first started I didn't know it either.
Um, I didn't know it was supposed to I

473
00:49:56,160 --> 00:50:04,559
receded it in um as it has always
historically been done, but um I I

474
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:09,119
didn't know either. So, I don't know
that the previous person knew,

475
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,839
but um I've
>> You think they'd be looking for their

476
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:15,200
revenue?
>> Yeah. Yeah.

477
00:50:12,559 --> 00:50:21,359
» Yeah. which they they receive um a
pretty good portion from us by itself.

478
00:50:18,319 --> 00:50:26,720
But um
but yeah, I don't know that they know,

479
00:50:23,599 --> 00:50:30,000
you know, there's a lot of um moving
around and different, you know, new

480
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:38,079
people and positions and stuff. So, a
lot of information and and knowledge uh

481
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:44,960
kind of get lost about things as people
um positions are just being filled.

482
00:50:41,599 --> 00:50:50,079
Uh just having come in this first year
doing budget with us at the county. So

483
00:50:47,839 --> 00:50:55,280
this is when we started doing the look
into why things were missing as well.

484
00:50:53,599 --> 00:51:00,400
» So
>> yep.

485
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:08,720
» Yes. Um and then I also wanted to talk
about the special highway. It is a it is

486
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:12,280
showing negative in our books. Um I do
understand that

487
00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:22,960
I'm not I've never seen so when I've
researched this um based on the research

488
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:27,040
I've completed so far the highway
quarterly and the highway equalization

489
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:32,880
monies received by the state have been
receded into the R&B equalization fund

490
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:39,599
instead of the special highway. Um, at
this point I would just like the

491
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:43,760
commission to um help me determine the
uh

492
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:48,160
if if you'd like a transfer made and
where is that transfer coming from and

493
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:52,000
um how you would like for me to receive
in that highway money moving forward

494
00:51:50,559 --> 00:51:56,640
because there's two different highway
monies.

495
00:51:54,960 --> 00:52:00,480
» Do you know what the total was like for
last year?

496
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:03,440
» Um I did not bring last year's. I
brought this year's year's. Okay. Yes.

497
00:52:02,240 --> 00:52:04,960
For special highway.
>> Huh?

498
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:08,079
» For special highway.
>> Yes.

499
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:11,359
» Okay. Uh for special highway, it is
negative 32,000.

500
00:52:09,359 --> 00:52:13,920
» Oh, no. I know that.
>> Oh,

501
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:19,520
» I'm sorry. How much did we did you
receipt in for those? You said you

502
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:26,880
received income.
>> Um, yes. I didn't bring

503
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:30,960
I brought a couple
>> because I believe there's about 150,000

504
00:52:29,119 --> 00:52:36,079
from the state, but then there's also
federal.

505
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:43,960
» Yeah. Which that it back in the day I
found some that were labeled

506
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:43,960
what you just said.

507
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:53,760
Well,
yeah. So, the special highway was

508
00:52:50,000 --> 00:53:00,720
receiving federal fund exchange
in 22, but that's the last time I see

509
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:03,200
anything stating that in the 106. So,
nothing has been

510
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:09,319
this.
>> Do you know what that amount was?

511
00:53:05,359 --> 00:53:09,319
» Um, that was $110,45527

512
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:18,280
and that was receded in uh June 27,
2022.

513
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:29,040
But we are not receiving that anymore.
Um, I also see

514
00:53:26,319 --> 00:53:35,119
» Are you sure we're not?
>> Well, I I have a system that I use for

515
00:53:33,839 --> 00:53:39,760
just making sure I've receeded
everything and that we get AC wise from

516
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:44,160
the state. There's an eupplier account
for me to go look on and I try to um

517
00:53:42,319 --> 00:53:48,640
look on it the beginning, the middle,
and the end of the month. And then um I

518
00:53:46,559 --> 00:53:54,079
cross off each one I receive in when I
see it. So I have a system with the

519
00:53:51,760 --> 00:54:00,240
states with what the state is sending
us. And I um can confidently say I'm

520
00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:06,000
receiving all of that in there.
>> Usually around November 1st of December,

521
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:11,440
we usually receive
>> 150,000.

522
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:15,839
» Um okay. I can look for that for last
year.

523
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:19,760
November depends on when it gets receded
in.

524
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:23,440
» So this is the way we used to handle
special highway. Thanks to we don't do

525
00:54:22,319 --> 00:54:30,000
this anymore.
>> Um so we would receive that into special

526
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:33,599
highway number 106 account. Okay. And
then when we did our chip and seal for

527
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:38,559
the oil and the chip and such, we would
take that expense out of there.

528
00:54:35,359 --> 00:54:42,400
» Right. But we decided it was voted on
that we'll just take it out of general

529
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:46,000
operation of road and bridge and so
that's why it got receded into the other

530
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:49,040
revenue account.
>> Gotcha.

531
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:55,280
» And so now when we do chip and seal we
just take it out of operations.

532
00:54:51,280 --> 00:55:01,040
So somewhere in that
change somehow some expense got put into

533
00:54:58,319 --> 00:55:06,000
special highway. Well, we at that time
we were trying to thin down account

534
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:12,160
numbers too, so we didn't have so many.
>> I preferred do the old way because now

535
00:55:09,599 --> 00:55:16,800
he has an expense that he doesn't have a
credit for. It's just increases the

536
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:21,280
revenue, but yet now our expense
increased by that chip and seal price,

537
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:27,440
which is about $150,000
that used to come out of a separate

538
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:31,760
fund. So again, that's
an increase in road and bridge that they

539
00:55:29,599 --> 00:55:33,760
didn't get a budget increase for.
>> Yeah.

540
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:37,520
» But that's my opinion.
>> Well, but we were supposed to be putting

541
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:40,960
it back into his budget to offset that
expense, too.

542
00:55:39,119 --> 00:55:45,359
» But it's not on the expense side. It's
in the revenue. So then it doesn't

543
00:55:42,559 --> 00:55:53,160
offset it really. He doesn't he's got
$150,000 less to spend because that's

544
00:55:48,799 --> 00:55:53,160
coming out of operations now.

545
00:55:53,359 --> 00:56:00,319
It's not really your worry, but
>> we would need we just need to see. So,

546
00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:03,839
» yeah.
>> Yeah.

547
00:56:01,359 --> 00:56:08,400
» Do you get notice of those funds, Mike,
when they come in?

548
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:11,760
» Yeah.
As far as I know, we've been getting

549
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:14,319
them every year. They have went down a
little bit and this year they're going

550
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,240
to go back up.
>> Oh, really?

551
00:56:14,799 --> 00:56:19,440
» For whatever reason.
>> Okay. Well, I

552
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:22,640
» So, probably we just need to let Gabby
know and then she can look for an exact

553
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:27,040
amount if you get that.
>> Yeah. And I'll go back and look at 24 uh

554
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:30,400
25
>> because I that would have been receded

555
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:33,280
in. I just
>> I received in so much stuff it's hard

556
00:56:31,839 --> 00:56:34,880
for me to kind of keep track of all
that. [clears throat] So, at least right

557
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,960
now
>> Jessica and ask her to look that up

558
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:40,160
because
>> Oh, thank you.

559
00:56:37,599 --> 00:56:44,640
» We're in the process right now of
submitting our

560
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:50,480
» our expenses
reimbured for that. But it'll take a

561
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:52,880
month or two before they send us.
>> Oh, okay.

562
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:56,640
» I'll be looking for it
>> for clarity. Actually, we talked about

563
00:56:54,400 --> 00:57:00,799
this in our work our budget session of
getting these accounts cleared up for

564
00:56:58,240 --> 00:57:05,920
25. I think we're just going to transfer
money out of the pilot fund to clear off

565
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:12,160
that 32,000
and let Linda do the 13th month for 25

566
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:19,040
to get these accounts
cleared up. And then if we could

567
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:25,520
figure out that difference. It would
help with our cash forward in Road and

568
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:29,119
Bridge if we put it in there or if we're
going to put it in special highway, then

569
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:32,880
we can do our expense of the chip and
seal that we're doing right now. Take it

570
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:36,480
out of there.
So,

571
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:42,400
» and I do have on here there are credits
within your operation

572
00:57:40,319 --> 00:57:45,040
account shared. So, I mean, you've got
your debits and your credits all in one

573
00:57:44,079 --> 00:57:52,559
funding.
>> Okay. But are any of those then

574
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:54,799
» the federal exchange?
>> Yeah,

575
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:59,400
» there was one of them in or two of them
in December on K dots

576
00:58:06,799 --> 00:58:09,799
project.

577
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:17,359
Oh yeah, the bridge I think.
>> Yeah, that's probably I was going to say

578
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:20,799
we've got other K dot.
>> Yeah,

579
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:23,799
» that wouldn't be going into operations.
>> Well,

580
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:35,480
how much was that one?
>> Bridge inspection

581
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,480
10,54560.

582
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:44,400
» Yeah, that's not a part of this. And
then there's a project here in the

583
00:58:41,839 --> 00:58:50,200
amount of
credit,

584
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,200
520.

585
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:08,880
And this was in 25
or is this this year? No,

586
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:12,119
» this is in 25.
I was looking

587
00:59:16,799 --> 00:59:20,920
for this. Oh, that would

588
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:34,760
balance. So, it can't do that.

589
00:59:40,799 --> 00:59:47,839
In time, we'll probably figure it out.
>> Okay. So, for now, we'll just

590
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:52,720
» together some more information. Um, so
actually on our 2025, the special

591
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:59,599
highway and the special bridge is in the
negative. So, we're going to make some

592
00:59:54,880 --> 01:00:04,720
transfers today to take care of that
from the pilot fund. And if we figure

593
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:09,599
out then that there is money somewhere
else, we can just transfer that money

594
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:14,640
back into the pilot fund. But we really
just want to get 25

595
01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:18,040
kind of cleared up,
>> right?

596
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,040
» Yeah.

597
01:00:21,359 --> 01:00:30,000
» So, if you don't want the
There is another fund here. It's a

598
01:00:26,079 --> 01:00:34,280
credit account reimbursement in bridge.
Is that where you want that receipt?

599
01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:40,040
It depends on where we take the expense
out

600
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:45,520
if we continue to take it out of
operations. Yeah. That reimbursement

601
01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:51,200
account which we haven't used yet this
year, have we?

602
01:00:47,359 --> 01:00:54,200
» No. Last time it was used.
>> Okay.

603
01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:02,640
So yes, that has the effect that gives
us a credit

604
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:06,000
for those operations. That's
>> because when I go to enter it into the

605
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:11,720
budget, I'm just going off of the whole
number. I'm not putting a credit or a

606
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:11,720
debit. It's just the

607
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,599
» I mean that never takes care of all of
Chip and Seal. It's just

608
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:23,000
» Yeah.
>> most of it. Well, it's

609
01:01:24,079 --> 01:01:32,160
the receding in part. Do you just want
to keep it the same or

610
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:36,559
cuz right now I'm putting it into the
R&B equalization.

611
01:01:34,319 --> 01:01:41,880
Um but then we have that special highway
fund which we'll we'll clean that up

612
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,880
with the transfer.

613
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:46,040
Um,

614
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:51,839
» but then
>> yeah, you're the one that changed.

615
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:56,880
» I know. I just like it going back in and
reimbursing into the budget. I know it's

616
01:01:54,880 --> 01:02:01,440
expense, overall expenses.
>> So, the equalization is revenue up

617
01:01:59,839 --> 01:02:06,880
above.
So, the bottom line with with road and

618
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:11,359
bridge on how much mill levy there is,
that's fine. But as far as operations

619
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:15,520
and staying within his budget as far as
expenses, it needs to be down below like

620
01:02:14,079 --> 01:02:20,480
in the reimbursement
>> or just a credit on operations. But

621
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:23,440
» it'd be easier to see if we use the
reimbursement.

622
01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:28,319
» But one of those so that it's on in the
revenue but down below in the expenses

623
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:30,640
and actually giving him a credit
>> because that's basically what we were

624
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:34,079
doing in special high.
>> Well, it's kind of like we're doing on

625
01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:39,040
the
unofficial detours. He's paying for the

626
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:41,760
kids and we're reimbursing all the KO
off funds. Same

627
01:02:41,119 --> 01:02:45,280
» same thing.
>> Same thing. Yeah.

628
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:47,680
» Or like when we get a culvert, you know,
we

629
01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:49,119
» that shouldn't go up above in the
revenue because

630
01:02:48,799 --> 01:02:53,680
» right
>> that's an expense for us. It's a expense

631
01:02:51,760 --> 01:03:00,079
we're passing on. So we want that credit
to be down below so that he still has

632
01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:05,880
the same amount of operating expense to
work with. It shouldn't matter how many

633
01:03:02,079 --> 01:03:05,880
culverts we put in.

634
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:14,240
Yeah. I'm trying to remember what the
coverts are receded into.

635
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:17,920
» Well, I think they've been taken out of
oper or put back into operations.

636
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:22,480
» Oh, right. Yes. Yeah,
>> that one is.

637
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:27,319
» Yeah. So, I guess the receipt into an
expense line. Do you want it in the

638
01:03:24,319 --> 01:03:27,319
operations?

639
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:33,200
» Yeah.
>> Just like we're showing we're spending

640
01:03:31,359 --> 01:03:37,359
this reimbursement back as revenue.
Well, the other one that I was talking

641
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:41,969
about that will reimburse the credit
>> uh that is an expenditure line.

642
01:03:39,839 --> 01:03:44,400
» It's a credit. So, it'll show separate.
[clears throat] We'll see how much

643
01:03:42,799 --> 01:03:49,359
credit we get then
>> compared to just putting in operations.

644
01:03:46,319 --> 01:03:52,480
We just get, you know, an expense for
operations where this would actually

645
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:59,200
show where the credit is and we can say,
"Oh, there's $150,000

646
01:03:55,359 --> 01:04:04,079
and know that that got receded." Mhm.
>> So, probably in that reimbursement would

647
01:04:01,839 --> 01:04:09,960
be fine with me. I think it'd be easier
to keep track of and Mike can see what

648
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:09,960
credits we have there

649
01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:18,880
because then on his budget it'll have
those two expenses in reimbursement and

650
01:04:15,839 --> 01:04:22,880
that would give his total for expenses
with a credit. So,

651
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:27,680
» okay. So, I'll just start receing it
into the reimbursement fund then

652
01:04:25,599 --> 01:04:33,160
» give that account number. Okay.
>> Oh, thank you.

653
01:04:29,039 --> 01:04:33,160
» Well, I appreciate you. Thank you.

654
01:04:34,079 --> 01:04:39,000
» Okay. So, we've got that.

655
01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:49,280
Now, for the uh the county bank
accounts. So, um, we currently have 14

656
01:04:46,559 --> 01:04:54,160
bank accounts and, uh, based on my
review, I believe at least eight of

657
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:58,480
those accounts could be, um, closed or
the funds could be invested instead of

658
01:04:56,160 --> 01:05:02,960
continuing, uh, sitting in a separate
bank account. Thank you so much.

659
01:05:01,039 --> 01:05:06,960
» Don't worry. Some of the the
organizations that came to CIC

660
01:05:04,499 --> 01:05:09,680
[laughter] had a hundred checking
accounts.

661
01:05:07,599 --> 01:05:13,119
» That's crazy.
>> And they're like, "Yeah, we operate like

662
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,280
that." I'm like, "Okay,
>> okay.

663
01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:19,760
» We're doing good, [laughter] but we
could have fewer."

664
01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:24,960
» Yes, agreed.
>> Um, so four are currently sitting

665
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:31,839
without earning interest. One receives
CD interest only and then one receives

666
01:05:28,079 --> 01:05:36,799
both CD and bank interest and then um
two receive bank interest only. out of

667
01:05:35,119 --> 01:05:42,640
those eight accounts that I think could
potentially be closed. Um, we regularly

668
01:05:40,079 --> 01:05:47,039
use only four of the 14 accounts. Uh,
for the remaining accounts,

669
01:05:45,119 --> 01:05:50,880
um,
I'd like to discuss whether we could

670
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:55,680
still make sense to keep those open,
which there's one. Yeah. Uh, one option

671
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:59,680
would be to transfer the funds from the
account that are no longer needed in the

672
01:05:57,359 --> 01:06:03,440
county's main bank account and then
close those accounts. Other options

673
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:07,599
would be to invest the available funds
where approp where it's appropriate. So

674
01:06:05,599 --> 01:06:14,760
the money is earning interest instead of
simply sitting in an account.

675
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:14,760
» Thought we cleaned all those up.

676
01:06:15,039 --> 01:06:22,880
» Still got more.
So

677
01:06:19,039 --> 01:06:27,280
» you know how I was pushed for re
>> my question is I mean why do we have

678
01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:31,280
these accounts?
Is there can you think of anything from

679
01:06:29,039 --> 01:06:35,920
the past that we would have like an
accountant exchange?

680
01:06:32,799 --> 01:06:40,400
» Um I can give you I I don't have the
exchange.

681
01:06:37,599 --> 01:06:44,559
Some of them have a name underneath and
uh exchange state bank and community

682
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:50,559
national. They don't list a specific
name for what it was used for. Um there

683
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:54,039
is a bank of commerce one that that
stands at $1,855.40.

684
01:06:54,480 --> 01:07:00,920
um consistently. It doesn't change and
it hasn't for years. Um

685
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:11,440
that one doesn't have a name. It's just
an account. Um we also have a microloan

686
01:07:08,319 --> 01:07:17,039
account that acrews interest quarterly.
>> CBDG loan that's been handed for 12

687
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:22,000
years. I think
>> well so there is a CDBG. Nothing happens

688
01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:25,000
in this account and it is sitting at
$810,238.73

689
01:07:26,799 --> 01:07:36,520
and it's just sitting there. But that
one is named the CDBG.

690
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:36,520
» Uh yeah, 810,238.73.

691
01:07:40,559 --> 01:07:47,119
I kind of thought when we first got the
first um co money sparks

692
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:52,880
» that one of the things that we had to do
was to spend our

693
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:56,960
CDBG I think not the micro but I think
the C we had to spend that money before

694
01:07:54,720 --> 01:08:03,720
we can spend the sparks and so I thought
that we had Melanie would know

695
01:08:00,319 --> 01:08:03,720
» you don't remember

696
01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:09,520
» but I don't know how you can have
$800,000 because I thought it was more

697
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:13,359
like 50,000
>> is the interest bearing.

698
01:08:11,119 --> 01:08:17,160
» It is not.
It's just sitting there.

699
01:08:18,719 --> 01:08:24,400
Um, we also have a bank of most of these
are Bank of Commerce, but there's

700
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:31,920
another one, Bank of Commerce. It's uh
labeled as Stark Bank. That one is a CD

701
01:08:27,759 --> 01:08:35,239
interest only um by AC and it's sitting
at $91,722.118.

702
01:08:38,239 --> 01:08:46,839
And then there's the FSA flex spending.
Nothing happens in this account and it's

703
01:08:43,279 --> 01:08:46,839
sitting at $5,73.31.

704
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:55,319
There's an HAS savings account. Nothing
happens in this account and it's sitting

705
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,319
at $7,379.74.

706
01:08:56,640 --> 01:09:03,920
And then Community National Bank and
Trust uh CD and bank interest go in

707
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:10,040
here. And that account is sitting at
$159,000.

708
01:09:06,159 --> 01:09:10,040
Excuse me. $159,476.78

709
01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:14,719
» and then
>> request a copy of those.

710
01:09:14,159 --> 01:09:19,520
» Yes.
>> Yes, of course. I want to copy that.

711
01:09:18,319 --> 01:09:24,000
» Yes. No problem.
>> Take

712
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:27,120
out
>> when it was initiated from the bank.

713
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:33,440
» Okay.
>> And any activity last activity dates on

714
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:36,319
all those accounts,
>> please.

715
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:42,400
» Okay. Yes. because I thought we had
already moved all those funds.

716
01:09:39,759 --> 01:09:49,920
» I can tell you
>> in what we have from here for 2025 is

717
01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:53,199
only $5,000. So,
>> and it's CIC.

718
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,920
» Yeah, that's CIC.
>> So, they're saying 800,000 and you're

719
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:59,440
saying 5,000?
>> Yeah.

720
01:09:56,960 --> 01:10:03,600
» Well, there's a CDBG in there that
because I have to balance to that and it

721
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:08,080
is balance.
>> What? Michael and whatever that we

722
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:12,800
» we could never collect or those were the
last collection mounts that were

723
01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:15,920
» ever put in there and never back up.
>> I'm sure we had to spend those before we

724
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:19,679
could spend sparks.
>> Yeah. Well,

725
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:24,880
» if there
Yeah. Well, in the um Exchange State

726
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:28,760
Bank, that's bank interest only and
that's sitting at $171,148.93.

727
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:39,360
So, um I do know Community National Bank
and Trust and ESB, uh nothing, which

728
01:10:36,480 --> 01:10:43,440
I'll get those, but nothing had been
done with those accounts for a really

729
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:48,400
long time because they had prior prior
prior elected officials on the bank

730
01:10:46,480 --> 01:10:54,000
accounts. So, nothing had been done for
a really long time.

731
01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:58,239
» Well, I know the one CD was 40 years old
that I drew a bit about, we were getting

732
01:10:56,960 --> 01:11:02,960
1%. So,
>> yeah. Yeah.

733
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:06,640
So my question is I guess why would we
have these accounts at the different

734
01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:10,800
banks? Are we insured for only getting
so much at the bank where like we have

735
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:15,920
our main money? Did they
>> that part of our reassignment of

736
01:11:13,199 --> 01:11:22,120
interest is they had to be credited and
leveraged to cover all accounts within

737
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:22,120
our bank. So

738
01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:32,560
» that was when we bid out that process.
They had to be able to iate financial

739
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:36,239
backing and insurance to cover all
accounts.

740
01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:39,840
» What was that the last part?
>> They had to be insured to cover all our

741
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,920
accounts.
>> Yes.

742
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:46,560
» Key bills or whatever else they're going
to put back to back every amount we have

743
01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:48,719
in the bank.
>> Yeah.

744
01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:56,120
» Probably most of them quite a bit more
than that just to ensure the phone bank.

745
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:56,120
» Yeah.

746
01:11:56,480 --> 01:12:00,560
» So
>> if you can

747
01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:04,000
would like to see that list.
>> Yeah, of course I can get that to you.

748
01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:08,159
» We need to start combining and closing.
I'm all for that. It's it's a nightmare

749
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:13,760
for you to try to
>> reconcile those bank statements every

750
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:19,280
need when we're not operating.
>> Yes. Yeah. It's it's a lot to keep track

751
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:23,280
of on top of all the extra stuff the
state is also putting on. I mean,

752
01:12:20,719 --> 01:12:28,400
they've um they've got a lot to add to
the plate recently, too. So, um anything

753
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:33,199
helps, I think. But predecessor was
supposed to have all this done before. I

754
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:40,159
thought that was all taken care of.
>> No. And I can um I can definitely get

755
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:46,320
you the whatever you need. I will I'll
give it to you. So, I don't have online

756
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:51,040
access to Community National or um
Exchange State Bank. So those things I

757
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:54,000
have to wait for the statement to come
and then I can also call the I've called

758
01:12:53,199 --> 01:12:58,880
the bank before
>> if we need to make minutes to where

759
01:12:56,000 --> 01:13:03,920
you're accessible to them.
I don't we need to get a motion ready

760
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:07,360
for every account so we can substantiate
so

761
01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:11,120
» yeah and if we're going to close I'm not
sure

762
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:15,360
I think if I call the bank they would
give me whatever I requested and then I

763
01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:19,199
can share it with you. Um, I don't know
that we could we necessarily would be

764
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:23,040
the right time to put me on there as
view only, especially if we're going to

765
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:28,000
get rid of them. I don't want to
>> Well, not not that. Just so they put you

766
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:32,000
to where you can actually look access.
You could have a status with them.

767
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:36,560
» Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah.
>> It'll get so much online. If you're

768
01:13:33,679 --> 01:13:38,880
talking about years of back the last
time it was active, it's not going to be

769
01:13:38,239 --> 01:13:41,679
online.
>> That Yes. So,

770
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:44,400
» you're going to communicate. They don't
say, "Well, we're not on the account.

771
01:13:43,199 --> 01:13:45,360
We're not talking.
>> Yeah. Yeah.

772
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:47,440
» Yeah.
>> Um

773
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:50,719
» call Nick and he'll verify that.
>> Okay. [laughter]

774
01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:58,800
» Yeah. Well, the Bank of Commerce only
allows me to see electronically back to

775
01:13:53,600 --> 01:14:04,239
uh 2023. So, I I have to request Yes. I
have to request a CD from them and they

776
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:10,159
usually will upload it. Um
>> and it kind of depends if it costs or

777
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:13,520
not. Um so
>> what's costing us a lot of money for

778
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:18,480
set?
>> Yeah. No C no interest.

779
01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:23,199
» Yeah. A majority of them they are not
acrewing interest and some of them are

780
01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:27,120
and it just kind of varies with CD or
just bank interest or both. There's only

781
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:31,320
one account that has both CD and bank
interest going into it. So,

782
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:37,600
um, so I at least just wanted to put
that out there and then we can always

783
01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:42,320
discuss it later, too. Or if you have
questions or ideas you want to bounce

784
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:47,120
off me later, I'm, uh, more than happy
to talk about it and figure it out. So,

785
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:49,040
I at least just wanted to get it out
there so you all know what it looks

786
01:14:48,719 --> 01:14:53,520
like.
>> It'd be also nice to they should be able

787
01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:58,760
to take your EIN number and go to every
account within their bank and make sure

788
01:14:55,440 --> 01:14:58,760
there's nothing

789
01:15:00,159 --> 01:15:07,159
Yeah, I don't know if I can do that.
>> Never know.

790
01:15:04,159 --> 01:15:07,159
» Yeah.

791
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:13,520
» Um
Okay. So, and then I also just wanted to

792
01:15:11,679 --> 01:15:18,320
throw out there the jail construction.
Um I understand that uh it was the money

793
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:24,000
that's left in jail construction is from
sales tax um when it was being collected

794
01:15:20,719 --> 01:15:27,640
for the jail um building repairs. There
is $72,616.93

795
01:15:28,480 --> 01:15:34,800
sitting there. So, I at least just
wanted to let you know there are funds

796
01:15:32,480 --> 01:15:36,320
um for that. And uh
>> repairs coming up.

797
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:37,520
» Yeah.
>> Yes.

798
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:40,239
» What did you say?
>> We have repairs coming up. We'll use

799
01:15:39,440 --> 01:15:41,760
that money.
>> Oh, yeah. Perfect.

800
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:46,239
» We can use it.
>> Jim always left it there just Well,

801
01:15:44,239 --> 01:15:53,280
we're always going to fix the roof.
>> We had to Well, we fixed the roof once

802
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:56,520
» anyway. Okay. Yes. It'll last [laughter]
10 years.

803
01:15:57,600 --> 01:16:04,320
» Okay. So, um the next one would be the
health department transfers. Uh I

804
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:11,120
believe some transfers need to be done
within the the bank accounts. So,

805
01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:14,400
um I think there should be a transfer
associated with this account when

806
01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:19,040
accounts payable disperses payments for
that department um to the to get the

807
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:23,360
account balance to the health department
to balance with the health department

808
01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:27,600
fund. uh the initial transfer would need
to go into the county's main account

809
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:30,800
because the main account is what has
been covering the accounts payable

810
01:16:29,199 --> 01:16:34,640
expenses.
So uh once that initial transfer is

811
01:16:32,719 --> 01:16:38,880
complete, the bank balance and ledger
can be brought into alignment and then

812
01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:43,840
just moving forward, I would uh complete
a transfer when I need to from health

813
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:47,840
department account to the AP account to
cover that department's uh

814
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:51,679
dispersements. Um, and then this would
keep the bank activity and the ledger

815
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:57,679
activity matched instead of allowing the
balance to continue accumulating here

816
01:16:54,960 --> 01:17:01,679
and going down here. So,
>> so right now probably the grants require

817
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:04,080
a separate checking account. So, the
health department has a checking

818
01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:06,000
account, but all the checks are coming
out of our normal

819
01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:10,960
» right
>> account that we take AP from and there's

820
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:17,760
never been a transfer for those expenses
from the health to the regular.

821
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:25,920
» So, there I know. Uh yes. Um and of
course I didn't write that one down.

822
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:30,560
That one was like 1.8 million.
>> So

823
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:34,800
» that included the um pay
grant payment like fuel

824
01:17:33,199 --> 01:17:37,760
» if it's being paid out.
>> Yeah. We've been paying all the bills

825
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:39,199
and not taking the money back.
>> Well, no payroll.

826
01:17:38,719 --> 01:17:44,640
» Yeah. Yeah.
>> So, anything in the fund that is

827
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:48,960
» maybe for previous years, but currently
the grants are not paying for payroll.

828
01:17:46,719 --> 01:17:52,000
» Yeah. There's one individual that is
strictly supposed to be granting, but I

829
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:55,679
think it's still coming out of the
county.

830
01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:59,760
» So, once she gets that transfer done,
it'll cover it. So, okay. I just want to

831
01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:05,440
make sure that was included.
>> Yeah. No, no, you're fine. I will just

832
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:08,800
uh transfer the I will get the I didn't
get the number. I was in a rush. I

833
01:18:07,679 --> 01:18:14,080
didn't get the number of what the
difference was uh between what the

834
01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:18,480
account and the ledger is. Um but of
course I would just transfer the

835
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:23,040
difference into the main bank account.
So then that way the bank account of

836
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:28,400
health department matches their fund and
then every time we have uh accounts

837
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:31,760
payable um for their bills and such
because the grants go towards things

838
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:36,880
like that. I think it would be
appropriate to transfer health

839
01:18:33,440 --> 01:18:39,679
department to AP instead of going to uh
Home State Bank, our main account, and

840
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:42,000
then to AP.
>> Sure.

841
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:47,120
» On your checklist of one more thing.
>> I know. Yeah. [laughter]

842
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:51,199
But I want things clean and orderly and
organized.

843
01:18:48,480 --> 01:18:53,280
» Well, yeah. I mean, it means you better
write checks out of the health

844
01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:57,120
department.
>> Yeah. And I think it would be easier to

845
01:18:55,040 --> 01:19:02,320
transfer. Just my opinion. [laughter]
I I would prefer that if if I can

846
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:05,280
request that. So
>> yeah, and then we probably just need to

847
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:09,280
look into payroll because payroll would
be separate.

848
01:19:06,719 --> 01:19:12,480
» So in years past
>> um

849
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:14,080
» yeah, the grants were supposed to cover
payroll.

850
01:19:13,440 --> 01:19:18,480
» Yes.
>> Currently, I'm not for sure how many are

851
01:19:16,719 --> 01:19:22,560
actually still being covered. You'd have
to look at the grant

852
01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:26,320
» one for sure.
>> There's possible that there's another

853
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:32,560
one under WIC, but I don't know. A few
years ago, it used to be everyone got

854
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:35,920
» most of their
>> I don't I don't think it's that way.

855
01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:39,280
» Okay.
>> And we can always come up with something

856
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:42,800
that will work because I don't want to
make your job harder either by

857
01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:47,280
» Okay.
>> And it would be like because I have one

858
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:51,120
of them already separated out as grant
salary or salary. Okay.

859
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:54,719
» So that one specifically, you know,
every pay what that amount was.

860
01:19:53,040 --> 01:20:00,320
» Okay. because it's set to those fund
lines that are already set up. So all we

861
01:19:56,960 --> 01:20:03,280
got to do on APM payroll is that report
and that gives you a flat dollar amount

862
01:20:02,239 --> 01:20:06,800
right at the check.
>> That would be awesome. I would really

863
01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:11,679
appreciate that. And then we kind of
know what what uh just keeping it

864
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:15,840
straight and balanced is my goal.
>> Cleaning up the past. It's just going to

865
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:20,560
be a matter of the funds from one
checking account to the other going

866
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:23,520
forward. Then we'll have a record of
whether it's payroll or whatever for the

867
01:20:22,719 --> 01:20:27,520
grant. So
>> yes. Yes.

868
01:20:24,480 --> 01:20:31,335
» But I think we we need to include that
because that's a large payroll on one. I

869
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,199
don't know about the other. So
[clears throat]

870
01:20:31,440 --> 01:20:38,239
» yeah. So if you guys are comfortable
with that um then I can make the initial

871
01:20:36,239 --> 01:20:41,600
transfer. I asked the bank account and
of course I can give you the number

872
01:20:39,440 --> 01:20:45,360
before it's even said and done. Um but I
did ask the bank how we would go about

873
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:50,640
that and they would just uh initiate the
transfer um with the individuals on the

874
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:54,080
signature cards currently. So um we
would just have to go up there sign a

875
01:20:52,239 --> 01:20:58,960
card saying that we want to transfer
this to that and then it's done and then

876
01:20:56,719 --> 01:21:04,239
of course I can do I I will document it
in the CIC so that way you can see it.

877
01:21:02,719 --> 01:21:06,960
» Could we not just write a check from the
health department to the county?

878
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:09,280
» Yes.
>> You wouldn't have to the bank involved

879
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:14,880
in it?
>> I don't know. Whatever. large something

880
01:21:11,199 --> 01:21:19,280
like that in large is it
>> it's what what did you say

881
01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:25,920
» probably better for the bank electronic
members

882
01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:30,800
» well an in CIC isn't um set up for me to
write checks from the health department

883
01:21:28,239 --> 01:21:34,880
so I'll have to get with CIC to do that
first and so that's why I was just going

884
01:21:32,719 --> 01:21:40,320
to initiate the first one and then
moving forward okay yeah and then I can

885
01:21:36,480 --> 01:21:42,800
just write the checks uh to from the
health department to our Yes.

886
01:21:42,480 --> 01:21:45,600
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.

887
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:50,480
» Just put in the transfer. Okay.
>> Yes. So, if you're good with that, then

888
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:54,880
um we can initiate the transfer and uh
I'll also give you all the details

889
01:21:52,719 --> 01:21:56,800
before that happens so you know what's
going on.

890
01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:01,600
» Um
>> cuz I know I had access to all those

891
01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:06,366
cameras. I thought
>> you thought

892
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:06,366
» I thought I had all the [laughter]

893
01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:12,639
» a year ago.
>> Oh, no. three.

894
01:22:12,206 --> 01:22:14,320
[snorts]
>> Yeah.

895
01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:17,600
» Okay.
>> Okay.

896
01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:19,520
» But we're learning more.
>> Yes.

897
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:22,960
» And I appreciate Linda Smith is helping
out with this a lot.

898
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:28,239
» Yeah. Yeah. She is wonderful. She's
doing great. And um honestly, I couldn't

899
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:32,000
have gotten this far without her. So, I
have so much on my plate already and and

900
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:36,560
she's stepped up and helped me with a
lot of things and also taught me a lot

901
01:22:33,440 --> 01:22:41,600
of things and is continues to teach me
things. So, I really appreciate my time

902
01:22:38,719 --> 01:22:46,880
with her and I appreciate you guys for
um being open and okay with that. So,

903
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:48,480

beginning of this year because it was

01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:36,239
over 300 uh the beginning of this year.
So, it did go down a little bit.

966
01:26:24,639 --> 01:26:33,960
it approved. I usually get both it and
fourth corners done. And

967
01:26:29,199 --> 01:26:33,960
I don't know. I have no excuses today.

968
01:26:34,480 --> 01:26:43,960
It's my yearly. Um I get credits for
>> fun fun.

969
01:26:39,679 --> 01:26:43,960

970
01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:15,920

Governor Kev Cop to attend KE from a

971
01:27:12,880 --> 01:27:19,840
conference August 30th to September 3rd
Manhattan campus.

» I
>> I motion carried. Do you need that back?

974
01:27:29,440 --> 01:27:33,920
» That is actually all I have for you
today.

975
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:37,920
» So, we've never talked about this, but I
know other counties are putting a burn

976
01:27:35,520 --> 01:27:42,080
ban on. How do you think that we're
doing as far as

977
01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:47,199
» um I have not been approached by any
fire chiefs to have another one? Now, we

978
01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:52,159
had that discussion what earlier this
summer about changing the burn bands.

979
01:27:50,159 --> 01:27:57,440
Um, I don't know that we've had problems
with people burning. So, I mean, people

980
01:27:55,120 --> 01:27:59,440
are adults and tend to not try to burn
their stuff down, right?

981
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,679
» We made it through the 4th of July,
right? So,

982
01:28:00,239 --> 01:28:07,876
» we did make it through the 4th of July.
Nick didn't burn anything down. So,

983
01:28:04,639 --> 01:28:12,080
» he tries to a lot, don't you?
[laughter]

984
01:28:09,040 --> 01:28:16,159
» No, I I to be honest with you, when I
had that conversation with the fire

985
01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:20,000
chiefs, um, nobody has approached me
about it, and that's generally where we

986
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:23,360
go with it. Um, if it starts being an
issue, we're hoping we get some

987
01:28:21,679 --> 01:28:26,239
» We're going to get some rain. It's
September, right?

988
01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:28,400
» And we're supposed to have a wet winter
as well.

989
01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:32,239
» Oh, we are.
>> We're going into L.

990
01:28:30,480 --> 01:28:35,520
» Mike is shaking his head. No.
>> Sorry.

991
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:39,760
» I don't I don't make the rules, Mike. I
just I'm just reporter. Don't kill the

992
01:28:37,840 --> 01:28:42,880
messenger. But we're in a wetter we're
going to be in a wetter winter is my

993
01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:44,560
understanding. So,
>> maybe

994
01:28:44,159 --> 01:28:48,480
» Well,
>> we need that. But

995
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:51,679
» we do need some moisture, but um we We
need to get rid of

996
01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:55,679
» I haven't heard anything. So,
>> no, actually everybody

997
01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:59,360
» I mean I know the wheat's not apparently
not as good as they thought it was going

998
01:28:56,960 --> 01:29:03,280
to be this year. A little less, but I
haven't had any. So,

999
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:08,320
» corn everyone's putting corn down.
>> I think

1000
01:29:05,760 --> 01:29:11,199
» Yeah. So, nobody has said anything. So,
>> there's quite a bit of moisture in the

1001
01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:14,159
morning still on the ground. So,
>> yeah.

1002
01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:15,679
» In Witchah this weekend, they got rain.
>> We got rain. We did.

1003
01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:20,239
» Yeah, we did.
>> Oh, okay. We got we got some in

1004
01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:23,120
Gailsburg brain for like 30 minutes and
then it was done. So [laughter] we're

1005
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:28,639
done. We got a little
>> Okay. So no, if if you have if you want

1006
01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:32,800
if you want to um entertain a burn bane
change, I'm more than willing to get

1007
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:35,199
information again, but I already tried
that before. So

1008
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:37,920
» I was wondering if there was any talk,
but

1009
01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:40,880
» No, no, I'm good. But if you know
anything else, thank you guys.

1010
01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:46,840
» Thank you.
>> Sorry about the wait,

1011
01:29:43,199 --> 01:29:46,840
» Miss Cheryl.

1012
01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:52,480
You're back again. This is just becoming
a regular.

1013
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:57,280
» Well, you miss us so much.
>> Well, I'm the one who hears from the

1014
01:29:54,400 --> 01:30:05,199
real estate person.
I'm between you and them. So, that's why

1015
01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:10,639
uh so I I am requesting
an executive session to discuss purchase

1016
01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:14,560
of real estate. And I did I heard you
talking about bank accounts. So, I

1017
01:30:12,480 --> 01:30:21,480
brought bank statements for you. Isn't
that nice?

1018
01:30:17,199 --> 01:30:21,480
So, I have that.

1019
01:30:26,639 --> 01:30:32,920
I move to recess into executive session.

1020
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:41,920
Oh. To discuss the acquisition of real
estate regarding the attorney's office

1021
01:30:38,800 --> 01:30:46,000
for how long are you going to talk?
>> 15.

1022
01:30:42,639 --> 01:30:48,960
» 15. probably I
>> let's go with 10 minutes and then we can

1023
01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:51,520
go more if we need to to include
commission council and county attorney.

1024
01:30:51,120 --> 01:30:58,000
» Okay,
>> we'll come back at three Oh, sorry. 245.

1025
01:30:56,400 --> 01:31:00,239
» Okay,
>> I'll second the motion.

1026
01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:04,800
» All those in favor?
>> I I

1027
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:07,360
» That'd be 15 minutes. Is that okay?
>> Oh, I'm sorry. I said Yeah. 240.

1028
01:31:06,719 --> 01:31:12,760
» 240.
>> I just said 10 minutes. Okay, that's

1029
01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:57,520
We're back in session. No action was
taken.

1030
01:41:55,040 --> 01:42:03,840
Anything else for us?
>> Well, okay. Yes.

1031
01:42:01,679 --> 01:42:10,080
Uh, so I'm just going to say it out,
okay? For me, there isn't any real

1032
01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:17,199
reason not to do this. And at some
point, I do need to give an answer to

1033
01:42:14,159 --> 01:42:25,040
those people in order to be sort of a
professional business person.

1034
01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:30,400
So, if you have lost interest or you're
not going to do this, I I kind of need

1035
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:35,520
to tell them. So, I
Not meaning to pressure you, but I'm

1036
01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:41,800
pressuring you. Okay? So, I apologize if
it's like that. But what do you want me

1037
01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:41,800
to tell them?

1038
01:42:42,719 --> 01:42:50,960
» We got pretty firm numbers of what we
have remaining available. That That's

1039
01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:54,320
why I want if you got that summary again
>> from the audit.

1040
01:42:52,480 --> 01:42:59,119
» Yeah. Yes, I can send you the executive
summary again, but I can tell you he his

1041
01:42:56,800 --> 01:43:04,159
his prediction, I think, is that there's
going to be over 125,000 dollars left

1042
01:43:02,159 --> 01:43:09,760
that belongs to the county. And I
actually think that estimate is low

1043
01:43:06,480 --> 01:43:14,719
because some of the things that would
have to be distributed from that fund

1044
01:43:11,679 --> 01:43:21,880
have already been paid. So, you have
another over $100,000 for sure that will

1045
01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:21,880
be available.

1046
01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:38,080
and
first enter about 47.

1047
01:43:36,639 --> 01:43:42,639
» Mhm.
And then there's mine, which the one

1048
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:50,080
that I started that has I'm sure it has
18 by now because

1049
01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:54,600
I know I've added almost $1,000
since that statement. So,

1050
01:44:00,880 --> 01:44:03,880
approximately

1051
01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:31,840
185,000
>> I'm sorry what

1052
01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:35,560
» approximately 185,000
That's correct.

1053
01:44:43,280 --> 01:44:54,560
And if you uh are directing me to
put some of that larger account in a

1054
01:44:51,199 --> 01:45:00,480
different instrument at the bank, I
think that would be wise

1055
01:44:57,920 --> 01:45:05,600
because it's not making you it's not
making anybody any money right now. It's

1056
01:45:02,719 --> 01:45:07,440
just sitting there.
>> Is that art?

1057
01:45:06,880 --> 01:45:12,560
» H
>> is that our direction? They just they

1058
01:45:09,920 --> 01:45:15,520
should Yeah, they would just hit the
>> I I would like to do that

1059
01:45:14,159 --> 01:45:17,600
» market of some sort.
>> Yeah, like a money market account at

1060
01:45:17,119 --> 01:45:21,040
least.
>> If you're not having enough activity,

1061
01:45:19,199 --> 01:45:26,320
that would be penalizing to you.
>> No, no,

1062
01:45:23,840 --> 01:45:33,000
if I Yeah, if I needed to. Yeah, I could
even make Yes, I can avoid a lot of

1063
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:33,000
activity.

1064
01:45:34,480 --> 01:45:40,480
Is there a name on that or just
>> I wouldn't give the account number.

1065
01:45:38,560 --> 01:45:45,920
» Well, of course not. [laughter]
>> I'm just saying

1066
01:45:43,440 --> 01:45:50,960
» convert. I'd make a motion to have you
convert the community account into a

1067
01:45:49,360 --> 01:45:53,199
money market.
>> Okay.

1068
01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:58,639
» Diversion fun.
>> Yeah.

1069
01:45:56,080 --> 01:46:03,840
» I'll second that. Any more discussion
>> in that? He still had a

1070
01:46:01,360 --> 01:46:08,639
» All those in favor?
into that. He also had a training.

1071
01:46:06,639 --> 01:46:11,440
» Are you going to Well, the training fund
is a whole different thing. I'm talking

1072
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:15,600
with Gabby about that.
>> Okay. Figure out what that is. No, I

1073
01:46:13,840 --> 01:46:19,600
think what you're thinking of is he had
a drug buy fund. Okay.

1074
01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:22,960
» For the law enforcement and I had a
conversation with them and it turns out

1075
01:46:21,440 --> 01:46:29,199
that none of them wanted that money.
They have their money to buy to make

1076
01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:34,639
control buys of drugs. So when Tiana
came in office, there was about 35,000

1077
01:46:31,199 --> 01:46:39,840
in that account. And uh and when I came,
there was like 2700 because she wrote

1078
01:46:37,360 --> 01:46:44,159
some big checks to the law enforcement
agencies, the sheriff's office, uh the

1079
01:46:42,480 --> 01:46:49,360
Erie Police Department, and the Shoot
Police Department. And they uh I think

1080
01:46:46,560 --> 01:46:56,480
they bought equipment. I think the Shoot
PD added a few uh

1081
01:46:52,880 --> 01:47:02,400
maybe not flot cameras, but cameras for
I think she came to us about that.

1082
01:46:58,480 --> 01:47:07,280
» And so so that one is I I just closed
the account because it had to and put it

1083
01:47:04,960 --> 01:47:10,400
over into that one that's 18,000. So
>> I just remember there was two.

1084
01:47:08,719 --> 01:47:18,880
» Yes, there. Yes, you are correct about
that. And I there was like a she pretty

1085
01:47:15,119 --> 01:47:25,440
much spent all that money. So
yeah, but I will take action to put the

1086
01:47:22,159 --> 01:47:29,920
the larger account in a different kind
of thing that will at least earn us a

1087
01:47:27,440 --> 01:47:38,600
little bit of income as we go here.
>> Your space is limited. I know that.

1088
01:47:33,920 --> 01:47:38,600
» Uh yeah, I don't know. Uh,

1089
01:47:39,119 --> 01:47:46,119
I don't know what to do if I if we're
not going to do this then.

1090
01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:53,440
I mean, I'll figure something out right
now. You know, I'm kind of hanging them

1091
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:57,320
from the
chandeliers. But

1092
01:47:57,760 --> 01:48:06,800
what I can do,
>> where do you think you go? Oh, I just

1093
01:48:04,239 --> 01:48:12,800
there's just no space in Chinuke. I
mean, I'm surprised there's not more

1094
01:48:08,239 --> 01:48:16,480
options, you know. It's kind of sad.
>> It is, but

1095
01:48:15,679 --> 01:48:22,080
» it is.
>> Yeah. And nothing truer was ever said.

1096
01:48:18,560 --> 01:48:25,840
There's not any options.
>> Well, if we get all that money, let's

1097
01:48:23,520 --> 01:48:29,280
just build new.
>> Yeah,

1098
01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:33,119
you're going to get more than that
building new.

1099
01:48:32,400 --> 01:48:38,119
a lot.
>> Yeah, I'm afraid

1100
01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:38,119
» I don't like the location.

1101
01:48:38,159 --> 01:48:44,000
» It could be worse. It could be out by
the high school. That's really not good

1102
01:48:41,920 --> 01:48:48,280
location.
Um, yeah. I mean,

1103
01:48:57,520 --> 01:49:05,679
we'll be back tomorrow to work on more
budget things. Okay.

1104
01:49:01,119 --> 01:49:09,440
» And let's discuss it and see.
A little overwhelmed right now on making

1105
01:49:07,520 --> 01:49:11,119
decisions on budgets.
>> Okay.

1106
01:49:09,840 --> 01:49:13,520
» And expenses day,
>> I guess.

1107
01:49:12,239 --> 01:49:19,360
» But we're we're going to meet tomorrow
and we're meeting on Thursday. So

1108
01:49:15,600 --> 01:49:22,800
» Okay. Okay. What time? Tomorrow.
>> Okay. All right.

1109
01:49:22,159 --> 01:49:24,960
I will
>> try to work in our numbers here.

1110
01:49:24,639 --> 01:49:27,600
» Yeah.
>> And we're going to talk about wages

1111
01:49:26,560 --> 01:49:31,760
tomorrow. So
>> Okay. I probably need to be in that

1112
01:49:29,440 --> 01:49:35,040
department. Yeah, I I need to be talking
about that. Okay. All right. Thank you.

Thanks for your time.

after the budget meeting and wasn't able
to get in the consent agenda. if we can

» Um
the only other thing I brought and I

1168
02:17:14,399 --> 02:17:18,719
kind of mentioned it to you guys this
morning and I just wanted to say it

1169
02:17:16,719 --> 02:17:23,920
because Mike and I talked about it. um
we have to figure out

1170
02:17:22,080 --> 02:17:26,800
they are full on all their budgeted
positions regardless if they're

1171
02:17:25,359 --> 02:17:31,439
part-time because the part-times are
budgeted at part-time

1172
02:17:29,200 --> 02:17:36,319
if it is felt that there is a need for
an additional road and bridge position

1173
02:17:33,439 --> 02:17:40,559
or to um I need to get with Mike we
needed equipment operator do we want a

1174
02:17:38,639 --> 02:17:47,120
road grader operator like what do we
want and then I can give you guys the

1175
02:17:43,679 --> 02:17:50,719
number should we hire an individual um
but that's something for you guys to

1176
02:17:48,800 --> 02:17:56,160
think about. And in the meantime, I'll
get with Mike to see what positions, if

1177
02:17:52,800 --> 02:18:01,120
any, um, he'd request to add to the
budget for next year. Does that make

1178
02:17:58,800 --> 02:18:04,479
sense?
>> Yep.

1179
02:18:01,840 --> 02:18:08,240
» Okay. Not that I'm trying to add more
money, but I know

1180
02:18:06,719 --> 02:18:12,000
um, having enough people is always a
concern, so this would be the time to

1181
02:18:09,760 --> 02:18:15,439
address it.
>> All right. Anything for me?

1182
02:18:14,160 --> 02:18:19,880
» No.
>> All right. Thanks, y'all. Thanks,

1183
02:18:16,880 --> 02:18:19,880
Sydney.

1184
02:18:20,960 --> 02:18:24,359
» All right, Mike.

1185
02:18:26,160 --> 02:18:35,960
» Okay. Good afternoon, everyone.
Don't have a whole lot on my list.

1186
02:18:32,960 --> 02:18:35,960
Um,

1187
02:18:36,080 --> 02:18:45,840
did we want to discuss the
Colbert

1188
02:18:43,120 --> 02:18:52,000
issue or proposal, whatever you want to
call it, for the Gailsburg school. Do we

1189
02:18:49,760 --> 02:18:58,559
want to do that or
I know last week we kind of tabled that

1190
02:18:54,319 --> 02:19:06,240
and we're going to revisit it and
I've had them call me and

1191
02:19:02,319 --> 02:19:08,639
ask where we're at on that.
>> Um

1192
02:19:06,800 --> 02:19:13,840
» not that I don't help but they are a
taxing entity that have funds outside of

1193
02:19:12,000 --> 02:19:18,319
their budget.
I still want to know

1194
02:19:16,559 --> 02:19:24,280
why
I'm hoping to do our part, but we're

1195
02:19:20,960 --> 02:19:24,280
doing extras.

1196
02:19:24,319 --> 02:19:29,960
We'll close on our budget right now,
too.

1197
02:19:26,960 --> 02:19:29,960
» Yeah.

1198
02:19:30,160 --> 02:19:36,240
» Well, taxpayers do pay a lot of taxes,
too. know that

1199
02:19:34,240 --> 02:19:39,760
» well they
one of the guy now this it wouldn't be

1200
02:19:38,000 --> 02:19:45,599
official but [clears throat]
I was contacted by one of the residents

1201
02:19:42,080 --> 02:19:50,720
over there and he suggested even
he thought he might be able to talk the

1202
02:19:48,319 --> 02:19:56,720
contractor that's doing the uh fiber
optic cable into installing it

1203
02:19:54,240 --> 02:19:59,920
u
I wouldn't have a problem with them

1204
02:19:58,160 --> 02:20:09,720
doing that I would want to oversee it
but um just to kind of ease the pain a

1205
02:20:05,600 --> 02:20:09,720
little bit. But

1206
02:20:10,479 --> 02:20:20,800
that's not my decision to make. It's
whatever you guys whatever you think.

1207
02:20:16,640 --> 02:20:25,200
And I did look at the site again. We
thought maybe there would have to be a

1208
02:20:22,080 --> 02:20:31,280
third culvert installed downstream, but
there won't be. It goes past one house.

1209
02:20:29,120 --> 02:20:36,319
He'll need a new culbert. Did you ever
send us the cost to

1210
02:20:33,040 --> 02:20:40,720
» um I have a for the
this is the cost for the culverts

1211
02:20:39,040 --> 02:20:46,120
themselves
which is u

1212
02:20:43,120 --> 02:20:46,120
$4,998.14.

1213
02:20:46,319 --> 02:20:50,520
I don't have a copy for everybody's

1214
02:20:54,800 --> 02:21:06,479
now that it would probably take
a load of u or a couple loads of gravel

1215
02:21:02,640 --> 02:21:12,880
and maybe a load of cold patch
to which you're probably looking at

1216
02:21:10,560 --> 02:21:17,359
maybe another couple thousand dollar on
top of this. in our time.

1217
02:21:15,200 --> 02:21:19,680
» In our time,
>> but I thought they were willing to pay

1218
02:21:18,720 --> 02:21:24,800
for the covers.
>> Well, they are. This is just a

1219
02:21:22,319 --> 02:21:26,800
» So, somebody had asked for this the
other day to

1220
02:21:25,760 --> 02:21:32,080
» Yeah.
>> So, our time is what we're really

1221
02:21:29,359 --> 02:21:33,920
» Well, patch of gravel.
>> Yeah.

1222
02:21:33,200 --> 02:21:36,880
» 500.
>> Well, and if they were willing to pay

1223
02:21:35,200 --> 02:21:40,640
for that, then it would just be our time
and trucks.

1224
02:21:38,319 --> 02:21:44,640
» So, I mean, it's a county road, correct?
>> Yes. And so normally we do cover

1225
02:21:42,960 --> 02:21:47,680
culverts that need to be replaced. I
don't

1226
02:21:45,200 --> 02:21:52,960
» think they usually pay
for the cost,

1227
02:21:49,760 --> 02:21:57,520
» not labor. They just pay for the covers.
Correct.

1228
02:21:54,960 --> 02:22:04,479
» For a new installation.
Yeah. They pay for the culbert, the

1229
02:22:01,040 --> 02:22:09,600
rock, and a backho service.
>> Equipment service. And we probably need

1230
02:22:06,640 --> 02:22:13,200
to update that really because
>> it's But usually

1231
02:22:11,600 --> 02:22:21,520
» the last co I watched there was three
guys that are

1232
02:22:15,359 --> 02:22:24,880
» well you now there's probably two but um
but we don't make money off these

1233
02:22:23,520 --> 02:22:30,000
installations because we're there to
provide a service. I know, but they also

1234
02:22:26,800 --> 02:22:33,520
are taking tax before they can
>> fund something on this,

1235
02:22:30,720 --> 02:22:38,280
» but um
>> it's whatever the commission thinks on

1236
02:22:35,280 --> 02:22:38,280
this.

1237
02:22:43,600 --> 02:22:52,720
A little concerned what their budget for
the school budget is. As to com comment

1238
02:22:49,439 --> 02:22:57,520
earlier, their rates keep going on
school district reimbursement and we're

1239
02:22:55,920 --> 02:23:00,520
pinching money to try to pay our
employees.

1240
02:23:10,720 --> 02:23:18,560
So, I guess this is my question, too. If
we're going to do the 2-in overlay on

1241
02:23:15,920 --> 02:23:24,479
the west side of Gailsburg Road, does
this affect anything? Will we have a

1242
02:23:20,880 --> 02:23:29,680
drainage problem on that overlay that if
we don't do this? Is it causing problems

1243
02:23:27,040 --> 02:23:33,040
or what? Why do they want to replace
this? I guess

1244
02:23:30,399 --> 02:23:39,200
» it it won't affect the county road.
They've made some changes to their

1245
02:23:35,840 --> 02:23:45,600
school. Uh, I believe the gymnasium was
added on and yeah, frankly, I don't

1246
02:23:42,720 --> 02:23:52,000
think they got the elevation right and
uh they have a water issue with the

1247
02:23:48,240 --> 02:23:57,439
building. Do you is that correct?
>> Oh goodness. Okay. So, this should solve

1248
02:23:55,359 --> 02:24:00,439
that problem,
>> but

1249
02:24:03,520 --> 02:24:08,479
they this really should have been done
when they did the addition to the

1250
02:24:06,399 --> 02:24:11,040
school.
>> Kind of like 150th out here.

1251
02:24:10,000 --> 02:24:13,920
» How long has that been?
>> I was done before.

1252
02:24:12,160 --> 02:24:18,600
» Kind of like 150th out here.
>> Yeah.

1253
02:24:14,160 --> 02:24:18,600
» Yeah. I agree.

1254
02:24:22,800 --> 02:24:27,200
or
if you want to think about it some more

1255
02:24:25,760 --> 02:24:31,359
and we can talk about it again next
meeting.

1256
02:24:29,840 --> 02:24:35,200
We still have a little time. We don't
have a lot of time, but we have a little

1257
02:24:32,720 --> 02:24:41,720
time.
So, I was just asked to bring it up and

1258
02:24:38,720 --> 02:24:41,720
um

1259
02:24:58,800 --> 02:25:03,800
Well, if we're not going to do 150s, we
shouldn't do this.

1260
02:25:05,520 --> 02:25:09,080
That's my thoughts.

1261
02:25:13,840 --> 02:25:21,760
Well, okay. I'm going to keep moving.
Uh the chip and shield operation, we're

1262
02:25:19,760 --> 02:25:26,800
kind of in the middle of that right now.
We've been over around there area. We've

1263
02:25:24,800 --> 02:25:30,720
got that done. We do have some cleanup
over there. I've had some grumbling

1264
02:25:28,479 --> 02:25:36,960
about some loose gravel and what have
you. We'll there'll have to be some more

1265
02:25:32,160 --> 02:25:43,920
work done. Um we got that taken care of.
60th road and then the 10th road from 59

1266
02:25:41,359 --> 02:25:50,720
west for that one mile down around the
Morehead area and then we're going to

1267
02:25:46,399 --> 02:25:55,120
move up this way tomorrow. Um
we don't do anything anymore for the

1268
02:25:52,319 --> 02:26:00,399
city of Chinoot. Um city of Erie hasn't
won anything the last couple years and

1269
02:25:57,760 --> 02:26:06,960
the city of St. Paul are going to try
some fog sealing this year. So I'm

1270
02:26:03,359 --> 02:26:11,800
anxious to see how that works. Uh
we'll try that possibly Thursday.

1271
02:26:14,479 --> 02:26:17,479
Um

1272
02:26:17,760 --> 02:26:28,479
so I emailed you guys uh regarding the
engine in our crusher at the quarry.

1273
02:26:24,479 --> 02:26:32,960
It's got some pretty significant
issues. the rocker rail and the one of

1274
02:26:30,640 --> 02:26:41,359
the heads is broken
and it's showing signs of wear. It's the

1275
02:26:37,359 --> 02:26:47,720
the machine's got like 14,000 hours on
it. Um

1276
02:26:44,399 --> 02:26:47,720
the options

1277
02:26:47,760 --> 02:26:58,960
are um to overhaul it just the parts
you're looking at

1278
02:26:57,280 --> 02:27:03,840
15,000
$29.55.

1279
02:27:01,280 --> 02:27:08,640
There would be some additional work that
would have to be performed by Foley,

1280
02:27:05,840 --> 02:27:13,600
which would probably be I can't I don't
have a quote on that, but it it'd be in

1281
02:27:10,560 --> 02:27:19,680
the neighborhood of$2 to $3,000 of
additional work. Um,

1282
02:27:16,880 --> 02:27:22,680
here's a parts the the list of that
breakdown.

1283
02:27:31,280 --> 02:27:38,720
Personally, I would not recommend that
option.

1284
02:27:36,160 --> 02:27:44,000
Uh, with, you know, when you get that
14,000 hour mark, you're you're pretty

1285
02:27:41,280 --> 02:27:48,319
well at the life of that engine.
Um,

1286
02:27:45,840 --> 02:27:56,640
the other option which I'm getting ready
to give you is a uh for remanufactured

1287
02:27:54,479 --> 02:28:03,680
engine from
Foley.

1288
02:27:58,800 --> 02:28:08,520
Uh, and then this is a CAT C15 engine.
Pretty common engine, but it's

1289
02:28:05,520 --> 02:28:08,520
$34,32467.

1290
02:28:26,640 --> 02:28:34,319
12,000 hour warranty. [laughter]
>> Yeah,

1291
02:28:32,399 --> 02:28:40,399
I'll try.
I may need some help on that. Um,

1292
02:28:38,319 --> 02:28:44,960
but I think most people would agree that
that's

1293
02:28:42,720 --> 02:28:49,120
you know, you're halfway there on the
repairing the old one, and there's no

1294
02:28:47,439 --> 02:28:52,160
guarantee we won't have the same thing
happen a month from now with the other

1295
02:28:51,520 --> 02:28:55,120
head. So,
>> you could do that, and something else

1296
02:28:53,439 --> 02:28:58,479
could break in there, and you'd be end
up doing this anyway.

1297
02:28:56,800 --> 02:29:05,200
» Yeah,
I really It would be my recommendation

1298
02:29:00,800 --> 02:29:10,800
to buy the the the new engine.
And if you

1299
02:29:07,439 --> 02:29:16,479
decide to do that, I have a motion here.
The only thing I left blank was

1300
02:29:14,640 --> 02:29:22,000
» where it's coming out of. Okay. So, we
do have some funds that we could take

1301
02:29:19,600 --> 02:29:27,600
out of. We have some in the equipment
reserve, some in the pilot fund, and

1302
02:29:24,800 --> 02:29:32,960
some in special machinery. The only one
that we only have I didn't know there

1303
02:29:29,280 --> 02:29:36,720
was this $10,000 core deposit. Really
the only one we have is the pilot fund.

1304
02:29:35,040 --> 02:29:39,840
So initially when we set up the pilot
fund they gave so much money to road and

1305
02:29:38,479 --> 02:29:43,840
bridge and so much to the sheriff's
department and road and bridge we

1306
02:29:42,319 --> 02:29:48,399
haven't actually used all of that
initial money. So we have about $67,000

1307
02:29:46,880 --> 02:29:54,080
in there. So we would have enough money
to use to purchase this and that way it

1308
02:29:51,359 --> 02:29:57,840
would stay out of his um operations the
dayto-day operations.

1309
02:29:57,600 --> 02:30:00,720
Do you
>> have a time for anyone that could have

1310
02:29:59,359 --> 02:30:04,240
this?
I think the old one back.

1311
02:30:02,080 --> 02:30:10,399
» Uh the
I think they can have it fairly quickly.

1312
02:30:08,319 --> 02:30:15,319
» These are pretty common engines. I think
Bill said they had one available.

1313
02:30:23,600 --> 02:30:31,280
So this core deposit I mean is the total
45 or 34? It's 34 because we'll give

1314
02:30:29,920 --> 02:30:34,000
them the old engine.
>> Okay. It's basically

1315
02:30:33,120 --> 02:30:38,319
» I got you.
>> The core is the trade of our Now, if we

1316
02:30:36,640 --> 02:30:42,080
didn't give them our old one, it would
be that much.

1317
02:30:39,840 --> 02:30:45,439
» But
>> they want it.

1318
02:30:43,760 --> 02:30:49,359
» Well, they'll remanufacture it.
>> Well, yeah. They'll they'll take it and

1319
02:30:47,920 --> 02:30:53,160
rebuild it and it'll be like a new
engine when they get done.

1320
02:30:53,760 --> 02:30:57,920
So,
>> you think the pilot line will be fine?

1321
02:30:55,600 --> 02:31:03,760
Yeah. Okay.
I make a motion to purchase the CAT C15

1322
02:31:00,880 --> 02:31:09,720
diesel engine equipment for the rock
pressure

1323
02:31:06,000 --> 02:31:09,720
in the amount of $34,32467

1324
02:31:10,640 --> 02:31:17,840
to be paid out of pilot fund account
number 433.

1325
02:31:16,560 --> 02:31:23,760
» I'll second the motion.
>> Any more discussion? All those in favor?

1326
02:31:20,399 --> 02:31:27,640
I I motion carried.
>> Okay. Thank you for that.

1327
02:31:31,600 --> 02:31:38,560
Just reminding Rodney I'm a little
worried about the warning.

1328
02:31:34,960 --> 02:31:44,560
» I will pass that on.
Um

1329
02:31:40,640 --> 02:31:50,240
my next item is um
the routine bridge inspections

1330
02:31:48,479 --> 02:31:54,920
for
our bridges and um

1331
02:31:55,120 --> 02:32:03,760
CFS does that for us and I they've
always done us a good job and and u they

1332
02:32:01,840 --> 02:32:06,760
do have a
proposal

1333
02:32:08,560 --> 02:32:13,720
for us that and I'll need a signature on
it.

1334
02:32:14,640 --> 02:32:19,000
» I did email this to you.

1335
02:32:24,160 --> 02:32:35,880
Their proposal
uh is in for 20 the 2026 routine bridge

1336
02:32:30,720 --> 02:32:35,880
inspections is uh $23,491.

1337
02:32:42,319 --> 02:32:50,640
And if you will approve that, I will get
a couple of signatures and we'll get

1338
02:32:48,000 --> 02:32:50,640
that in the works.

1339
02:33:27,920 --> 02:33:35,200
Do you have the original to sign?
>> Yes.

1340
02:33:32,720 --> 02:33:38,720
» Are you going to sign it?
>> Chassity.

1341
02:33:36,080 --> 02:33:44,720
» It just says Neo County. You're more
than welcome.

1342
02:33:41,200 --> 02:33:50,720
» Yep. I'll make a motion to approve
um the routine inspection of 169 off

1343
02:33:48,960 --> 02:33:58,800
system
and RS system bridges at the unit price

1344
02:33:54,000 --> 02:34:04,960
of $139 for a total of $23,491
for CFS

1345
02:34:02,000 --> 02:34:07,960
to be taken out of the road and bridge
operation.

1346
02:34:08,240 --> 02:34:12,399
Any more discussion?
All those in favor?

1347
02:34:12,080 --> 02:34:16,280
» I
>> I motion carried.

1348
02:34:20,319 --> 02:34:23,560
» Speak up.

1349
02:34:47,200 --> 02:34:51,319
Okay, thank you for that.

1350
02:34:51,680 --> 02:34:54,680
Um

1351
02:34:57,359 --> 02:35:06,160
the the next thing I have is uh we have
an account with Pump Tire. We buy quite

1352
02:35:03,520 --> 02:35:10,800
a few tires from them.
And they've asked us to update our

1353
02:35:08,880 --> 02:35:15,760
credit application.
I apologize to Ken. I just kind of gave

1354
02:35:13,120 --> 02:35:21,439
this to her right at the beginning to
look over, but I think it's all pretty

1355
02:35:17,439 --> 02:35:26,040
straightforward stuff. just a renew.
>> Yeah.

1356
02:35:23,040 --> 02:35:26,040
Um

going to have a retirement party for

Mike, I just got one thing. I had a
gentleman call me up. You guys ship and

seal Morehead
Road down on county line.

didn't.

1390
02:38:06,880 --> 02:38:11,040
» I haven't been down there today.
>> Okay. Well, he just called me up and

1391
02:38:09,680 --> 02:38:15,680
told me that.
>> You might check it out.

1392
02:38:12,319 --> 02:38:18,560
» Yeah, I'll look at it
>> cuz I know that's ours because

» Yeah, I mean
>> been down there before.

1394
02:38:24,479 --> 02:38:30,920

look into it.

1395
02:38:33,520 --> 02:38:39,560
two miles.
>> One mile.

1396
02:38:36,160 --> 02:38:39,560
» It's one mile.

1397
02:38:39,680 --> 02:38:47,560
» But it does go to county line. You can
>> you can see it on the map.

1398

» Anderson.

1399
02:38:48,240 --> 02:38:54,080
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.

1400
02:38:51,680 --> 02:38:57,520
» Question
conversation to begin with on the road

1401
02:38:56,160 --> 02:39:02,160
with the school district. So, I've been
talking to the Gailsburg residents about

1402
02:38:59,200 --> 02:39:06,160
this. So, the last I have talked to them
about it is that the school's willing to

1403
02:39:03,840 --> 02:39:10,640
buy the Culver, this company that's
putting in the fiber office line,

1404
02:39:08,000 --> 02:39:14,800
Masttec has, what they're telling you,
volunteer to provide the equipment and

1405
02:39:12,640 --> 02:39:19,520
the labor to put it in. Do you guys have
an issue with that?

1406
02:39:17,920 --> 02:39:22,000
What's the approval process if they
have?

1407
02:39:19,760 --> 02:39:29,200
» Well, only if you're wanting willing to
go over oversee part of it or

1408
02:39:25,920 --> 02:39:32,080
» I could do that. I don't
>> just to make sure we're clear on that.

1409
02:39:30,960 --> 02:39:35,600
You know, if they're willing to do it,
there's really no expense to the county

1410
02:39:33,680 --> 02:39:38,600
as far as
equipment.

1411
02:39:41,359 --> 02:39:48,240
» I'd probably open that
and then

1412
02:39:48,399 --> 02:39:55,200
the rock. I mean, if somebody could
>> they they only thing they talked about

1413
02:39:53,520 --> 02:39:58,880
the last time they were here when Jared
was here with the you know asked to pay

1414
02:39:57,280 --> 02:40:02,240
for the cover on the neighbors down
there and they didn't say anything about

1415
02:40:00,160 --> 02:40:06,800
that and Mike put his bid estimate
together that they got there was rock

1416
02:40:04,479 --> 02:40:11,439
and cold pass included in that. They did
not push back on that. So my

1417
02:40:08,800 --> 02:40:17,240
understanding is they'll pay for that.
So the only thing we would be out would

1418
02:40:13,280 --> 02:40:17,240
be the trucking and the

1419
02:40:17,280 --> 02:40:24,800
hauling actually u I'd have to relook at
that but I think I included the hauling

1420
02:40:22,720 --> 02:40:28,720
on the coal patch
>> yeah because of where we have to go to

1421
02:40:26,800 --> 02:40:32,960
get patch
>> because it's a it's a it's a good drive.

1422
02:40:30,560 --> 02:40:38,800
I mean we go to we go to Grove to get it
but I've used cold patch from every

1423
02:40:36,240 --> 02:40:42,960
different source around here. I actually
got the this information from one of our

1424
02:40:41,600 --> 02:40:49,120
neighboring counties. That's what they
use and it's proved to be worth no more

1425
02:40:46,160 --> 02:40:52,560
than we use in a year's time. It's it's
worth going down there after it because

1426
02:40:51,040 --> 02:40:57,120
it holds up better than anything else
we've used.

1427
02:40:53,439 --> 02:41:00,720
» It's more precise numbers with county.
So,

1428
02:40:58,560 --> 02:41:06,240
» but
a little over $2,000

1429
02:41:03,280 --> 02:41:13,040
include the material.
>> That was It's about I think it's $125 a

1430
02:41:09,200 --> 02:41:17,680
ton, 15 tons, two hours down there and
back.

1431
02:41:14,479 --> 02:41:22,160
» I think we talked about also doing it
before or as we're doing the 2-in

1432
02:41:20,240 --> 02:41:25,359
overlay, having that equipment out
there.

1433
02:41:23,520 --> 02:41:28,800
» You don't want to have the roads messed
up. So the sooner we do it, I think the

1434
02:41:27,359 --> 02:41:31,680
better
>> if we're going to allow them to do it.

1435
02:41:30,319 --> 02:41:35,200
» Tech can do it, but
>> it would be nice to have it done before

1436
02:41:33,200 --> 02:41:38,560
they start the overlay
>> because then they could patch it for us.

1437
02:41:37,280 --> 02:41:45,240
So
>> they said mast

1438
02:41:41,439 --> 02:41:45,240
» if this wasn't pre-planned.

1439
02:41:52,160 --> 02:41:56,359
» I don't see any problem with it.

1440
02:41:58,399 --> 02:42:06,960
We're taking away from we're short. My
complaint about people not having enough

1441
02:42:02,960 --> 02:42:11,120
to do people wise. They think that
>> but it's a covert in the county. So on a

county road,
>> but how many covers do you have on the

1443
02:42:13,280 --> 02:42:20,960
list now like that haven't been replaced
for actual residents that are paying it?

1444
02:42:17,680 --> 02:42:24,200
» We've got a quite a few property taxes.
a lot

1445
02:42:26,960 --> 02:42:33,359
as a tax exempt entity that's collecting
taxes.

1446
02:42:32,240 --> 02:42:37,040
» So, we're going to make an exception.
>> How do you get around it? They'll pay

1447
02:42:34,800 --> 02:42:41,439
the materials and the equipment. I mean,
what else what else can they do to get

1448
02:42:39,600 --> 02:42:44,240
this done? They got a drainage problem.
>> Well, they're finding a contractor to do

1449
02:42:43,280 --> 02:42:47,280
it.
>> I mean, they are

1450
02:42:45,040 --> 02:42:50,080
» I mean within getting the coal patch.
>> Yeah.

1451
02:42:48,479 --> 02:42:57,520
» Yeah.
So let them like

1452
02:42:54,319 --> 02:43:00,160
» all the rock and the coal patch.
You think that's

1453
02:42:58,720 --> 02:43:03,040
» Yes, we can ask. I mean, that's the only
thing I know to do. I mean, they're

1454
02:43:01,520 --> 02:43:08,399
willing to do everything else up to this
point. I mean, if that's what you're

1455
02:43:04,479 --> 02:43:12,280
pushing back on, we can just ask.
>> I just It's just

1456

recently that hadn't had a new

it's an issue you know when they when

02:43:29,520 --> 02:43:36,240
Venice overlays that road they're going
to feather into that intersection we go

1461
02:43:33,200 --> 02:43:41,359

talk to the contractor ways they're

1463
02:43:43,200 --> 02:43:48,960
doing the overlay because they will help
on intersection certain entities you

1464
02:43:47,520 --> 02:43:52,640
talk to them ahead of
They have it prepped and ready to go.

1465
02:43:50,640 --> 02:43:55,680
They'll come and give you a new entrance

» instead of doing a coal patch.
>> Yeah. Instead of a coal patch.

1467
02:43:58,479 --> 02:44:02,720
» Well, I mean we could gravel down patch
it.

1468
02:44:02,080 --> 02:44:06,399
» Yeah.
>> That would be a good temporary fix.

1469

be right there at the intersection.

overlay entrance into the property

>> which would be great for the buses.

1477
02:44:36,960 --> 02:44:41,520
» Yeah.
>> Can you look into that?

1478
02:44:38,560 --> 02:44:47,120
» I can. Now, that being said,
>> if if they're willing to do that and pay

1479
02:44:43,840 --> 02:44:52,279
for basically everything and Masttec
would put it in, is the commission okay

1480
02:44:49,279 --> 02:44:52,279
if

1481
02:44:52,560 --> 02:44:58,560
I don't have a problem with it if you
don't?

1482
02:44:56,640 --> 02:45:03,200
» I I don't do along with that.
>> Okay. Would you mind? It would be much

1483
02:45:01,120 --> 02:45:07,120
better

1484
02:45:05,279 --> 02:45:10,800
» I think two loads of gravel would
probably be if that won't do it. It'll

1485
02:45:09,279 --> 02:45:14,399
be very close.
>> I think the ends with the

>> Oh, much better.

1487
02:45:15,600 --> 02:45:22,000
» A lot nicer. No, they you'll talk to the
contractor there. They'll

1488
02:45:20,399 --> 02:45:27,120
» Well, yeah. It'll it'll be nice.
>> And all they'd have to do then as far as

1489
02:45:24,160 --> 02:45:29,439
map tech would just be put the cover in.
Correct.

1490
02:45:28,000 --> 02:45:32,560
» Right.
put the culvert in and compact around

1491

it.
>> Yeah.

1492
02:45:32,960 --> 02:45:38,479
» Bring it up to grade with rock and then
they can overlay over the top of it.

1493

It
>> it's it's not a difficult

1494
02:45:41,760 --> 02:45:46,560
task. But everything takes time and
money

1495
02:45:45,359 --> 02:45:50,960
» and manpower.
>> Manpower.

1496
02:45:48,240 --> 02:45:53,200

the meantime if we don't meet till the

weekend, if somebody will let me know,

1500
02:46:01,920 --> 02:46:06,800
I'll run over and look at it. I don't
have a problem with that. It's not that

1501
02:46:04,720 --> 02:46:10,000
far.
>> Do we need a motion on that or do we are

1502

1505
02:46:18,880 --> 02:46:25,590
» That's a good compromise. And I think
you'll be much they'll be much more

1506
02:46:22,880 --> 02:46:27,680
happier with an asphalt insurance. Yeah.

1507
02:46:26,080 --> 02:46:31,880
» Oh, better idea.
>> Yeah.

1508
02:46:28,240 --> 02:46:31,880
» So, what is the motion

1509
02:46:31,920 --> 02:46:37,279
» to allow
>> the Gailber school to install?

1510
02:46:35,439 --> 02:46:41,040
» I think we probably just
>> to allow Gailsburg school system to

1511
02:46:39,680 --> 02:46:46,000
replace that.
>> Not replace this is a new installation.

1512
02:46:42,960 --> 02:46:50,720
» Install a new install new covert
>> for bus entrance or is it a

1513
02:46:48,880 --> 02:46:52,479
» It's an intersection intersection. It's
a

1514
02:46:51,600 --> 02:46:55,200
» east of the middle
>> south edge of 70th

1515
02:46:54,479 --> 02:46:56,640
» southeast
>> and Kingman.

1516
02:46:56,240 --> 02:47:01,279
» Okay.
>> And there's also another covert that'll

1517
02:46:58,800 --> 02:47:06,720
have to replace be replaced
>> further down to the east. But Brian

1518
02:47:03,359 --> 02:47:10,399
Kramer said he'd pay for that if nobody
else would

1519
02:47:07,760 --> 02:47:12,240
» Well, that cover was in the proposal.
Yeah,

1520
02:47:10,800 --> 02:47:17,520
» because he wasn't going to have to
change it out

1521
02:47:14,960 --> 02:47:20,240
» if if this one wasn't
>> that was the one that the school pushed

1522
02:47:18,960 --> 02:47:24,399
back on because they didn't want to pay
for the private drive, but like I said,

1523
02:47:22,399 --> 02:47:28,560
Brian Kramer who owns that said that he
would do that so

1524
02:47:27,040 --> 02:47:33,920
» Okay, good.
>> But I think between him and the school,

1525
02:47:30,319 --> 02:47:40,800
they'll get that taken care of.
>> I'll second that. Any more discussion?

1526
02:47:38,640 --> 02:47:46,279
All those in favor? I
>> I

1527
02:47:41,760 --> 02:47:46,279
» I'll go I with this setup deal.

1528
02:47:46,640 --> 02:47:50,200
» Motion passes.

1529
02:47:54,560 --> 02:47:59,680
» Okay.
>> Okay. We'll if you have any questions,

1530
02:47:57,120 --> 02:48:03,359
you can ask Nick about that motion as it
went on and on. But

1531
02:48:01,760 --> 02:48:07,200
» I think we got an understanding what we
want. I think it's a good idea to do

1532
02:48:05,200 --> 02:48:09,920
that when we're doing
>> it's not going to be an expense to the

1533
02:48:08,800 --> 02:48:14,640
county at this point.
>> Well, yeah. And I just think that's

1534
02:48:12,319 --> 02:48:18,080
over.
>> Oh, it will be.

1535
02:48:16,399 --> 02:48:21,760
» Yeah. This will this will clean it up
and

1536
02:48:19,200 --> 02:48:24,960
» it'll be a nice intersection.
So, okay.

1537
02:48:23,040 --> 02:48:31,319
» Be a good
be a good neighbor.

1538
02:48:26,319 --> 02:48:31,319
» Thank you. I saw that.

1539
02:48:33,680 --> 02:48:38,640
That's it.
>> Yeah. Thank you.

1540
02:48:35,920 --> 02:48:42,880
» Okay.
I guess.

1541
02:48:39,600 --> 02:48:49,439
» Yes. Um,
so we have always done checks for AP. We

1542
02:48:46,399 --> 02:48:54,560
would like to start looking into AC's.
It's going to save us postage, which is

1543
02:48:52,160 --> 02:48:59,040
78 cents right now. Postage.
>> Uh, envelopes, printing, paper, all of

1544
02:48:57,359 --> 02:49:01,600
that. So,
>> you have to keep some paper. cases back

1545
02:49:01,040 --> 02:49:06,000
in.
>> Some of them will continue. Others we're

1546
02:49:04,080 --> 02:49:09,600
going to try and reach out to our
companies and see if they have an AC

1547
02:49:08,640 --> 02:49:13,760
link
>> and we'll start getting that started

1548
02:49:11,840 --> 02:49:18,960
hopefully in the next AP.
>> Oh, really? Quick time.

1549
02:49:16,800 --> 02:49:21,279
» It goes to a dollar stamp here for too
long.

1550
02:49:20,080 --> 02:49:28,399
» Oh, yeah.
>> Or 86 cents. I think

1551
02:49:26,000 --> 02:49:32,640
» it's just a lot of It's a good idea.
>> So, I just when it comes down to it,

1552
02:49:31,120 --> 02:49:37,359
it's not going to change anything of
what you guys see of course other than a

1553
02:49:35,359 --> 02:49:43,120
versus check.
So then we'll work out the details of

1554
02:49:40,479 --> 02:49:46,800
understanding that when we present the
>> integ

1555
02:49:45,920 --> 02:49:50,960
Yeah. Okay.
>> Yeah. So we already run that with

1556
02:49:48,960 --> 02:49:53,520
payroll. True. So
>> good.

1557
02:49:52,080 --> 02:49:56,560
» We're just getting up to date.
>> Yeah.

1558
02:49:53,840 --> 02:50:00,433
» Good idea.
>> That was it.

1559
02:49:58,560 --> 02:50:04,000
» Yeah. Yeah, I'm saving you money.
[laughter]

1560
02:50:00,880 --> 02:50:09,680
» Transfers next.
>> All right. Um,

1561
02:50:06,399 --> 02:50:14,000
so there are some transfers from 25 that
were in our budget that we didn't

1562
02:50:11,279 --> 02:50:21,439
actually do and some accounts that we
need to clean up um to

1563
02:50:18,880 --> 02:50:26,880
have a better audit. And so we're still
working on the 25 audits. So I'll make a

1564
02:50:23,840 --> 02:50:30,680
motion that we transfer from the pilot
fund number 433

1565
02:50:31,760 --> 02:50:43,560
into these three accounts uh in the 13th
month of 25. So the first one is special

1566
02:50:38,640 --> 02:50:43,560
bridge account 102 is 321,47124

1567
02:50:45,520 --> 02:50:52,520
and then account number or special
highway number 106 is 32,97408

1568
02:50:54,240 --> 02:51:01,080
and the road and bridge operations
for 22396823

1569
02:51:01,760 --> 02:51:05,880
for a total of 578,41355.

1570
02:51:06,080 --> 02:51:13,040
5.
>> I'll second it.

1571
02:51:10,080 --> 02:51:14,720
» Any more discussion?
All those in favor?

1572
02:51:14,160 --> 02:51:20,520
» I
>> I motion carried.

1573
02:51:17,520 --> 02:51:20,520
» Um

1574
02:51:21,760 --> 02:51:29,120
so then for 26.
So, one of those the special bridge

1575
02:51:26,880 --> 02:51:35,120
account was overdrawn because we were
still waiting on money from KOT and we

1576
02:51:31,680 --> 02:51:40,240
have received that money and so kind of
to clear out that account for 26. I need

1577
02:51:37,920 --> 02:51:45,520
to make another transfer. Hopefully, we
still haven't gotten that $500 yet.

1578
02:51:42,399 --> 02:51:51,760
Mike, on the finalization of the North
River Bridge,

1579
02:51:48,080 --> 02:51:54,479
do you know if there's any more?
>> Surely by the end of the year, we'll

1580
02:51:53,279 --> 02:52:02,040
have that. Yeah.
>> So, I'll make a motion

1581
02:51:56,880 --> 02:52:02,040
that for we can um

1582
02:52:02,479 --> 02:52:09,760
let's have this for today
a transfer from the from the special

1583
02:52:08,160 --> 02:52:17,720
highway
account 106 back into the pilot fund of

1584
02:52:14,720 --> 02:52:17,720
119,41672.

1585
02:52:24,399 --> 02:52:29,120
All those in favor?
>> I

1586
02:52:26,160 --> 02:52:34,640
» I motion carries.
>> And that'll clean up those accounts. And

1587
02:52:32,000 --> 02:52:41,920
um those are kind of some of the
transfers that we had kind of budgeted

1588
02:52:37,359 --> 02:52:44,880
for 25 and then we didn't make them. So,
do you have those?

1589
02:52:44,000 --> 02:52:49,120
» Yes.
>> Okay. Yeah. I think you made a copy of

1590
02:52:46,479 --> 02:52:52,800
it. So, I will
keep that in there.

1591
02:52:54,240 --> 02:53:03,560
That's all I had for the transfers. Any
more unfinished business?

1592
02:52:58,960 --> 02:53:03,560
» Do you have an agreement with K dot yet?

1593
02:53:04,560 --> 02:53:09,920
The project's going to be over before.
>> I was discussing that. Okay. I was

1594
02:53:08,000 --> 02:53:12,319
discussing with Mike yesterday.
>> Okay. Still working on it.

1595
02:53:11,359 --> 02:53:16,479
» Yep.
>> Okay.

1596
02:53:13,520 --> 02:53:22,399
So in new business,
uh we need to have an executive session.

1597
02:53:20,720 --> 02:53:27,120
I'll move to recess into executive

Okay, we're back in session and no

» Let's see.
We got a letter from Southeast Kansas

1617
03:13:10,560 --> 03:13:20,479
Community Action Program for their 2026
home tenantbased rental

1618
03:13:17,840 --> 03:13:25,040
assistance application.
>> So, we're just um

Yeah, sorry.
>> Uh just saying that we will provide a

1620
03:13:28,160 --> 03:13:36,000
letter of support for this.
>> So, I'll make a motion that we sign the

1621
03:13:34,880 --> 03:13:41,760
letter.
>> Cost us money. Nope,

1622
03:13:39,200 --> 03:13:46,439
» not yet till we pass the budget. But
this is just for a letter of support.

1623
03:13:47,520 --> 03:13:54,080
» Yeah, I know. Is this just for
construction or is it for actually help?

1624
03:13:52,399 --> 03:13:59,560
I mean, what's the difference between
HUD and section 8 in this program?

1625
03:14:02,399 --> 03:14:10,520
So, here it says provides rental
assistance, security deposit assistance,

1626
03:14:06,239 --> 03:14:10,520
and utility deposit assistance.

1627
03:14:12,399 --> 03:14:15,560
» You're right.

1628
03:14:17,680 --> 03:14:24,319
» I I just there's already one program out
there. That's why or subsidize housing,

1629
03:14:22,720 --> 03:14:29,359
housing authority and all that. So,
that's why I didn't know

1630
03:14:26,239 --> 03:14:29,359
» what exactly

1631
03:14:34,479 --> 03:14:43,160
just a question.
>> You can feel free to call them if you

1632
03:14:40,000 --> 03:14:43,160
want to.

1633
03:14:46,239 --> 03:14:53,800
» We have a second.
>> I just don't want anything else.

1634
03:14:55,520 --> 03:15:00,399
I just have a little question.
>> So we can

1635
03:14:58,479 --> 03:15:03,279
» Why are we invol developing a health
program on this?

1636
03:15:01,200 --> 03:15:09,840
» You want to hold it till next? Okay,
we'll take

1637
03:15:05,600 --> 03:15:16,200
» might be a good tenant when I help
assistance federal dollars

1638
03:15:12,960 --> 03:15:16,200
state program

1639
03:15:24,800 --> 03:15:28,760
» we might have the same questions.

1640
03:15:29,520 --> 03:15:33,680
» Do you want me to
>> go ahead?

1641
03:15:34,399 --> 03:15:44,080
Um let's see on the
house

1642
03:15:40,000 --> 03:15:50,479
we got this billing statement from the
city looks like and

1643
03:15:48,880 --> 03:15:56,640
for
I think it's for fiber

1644
03:15:52,880 --> 03:16:01,439
but I saw this same come through for the
county attorney and the court. I thought

1645
03:15:58,720 --> 03:16:06,640
it was separated out but looks like
paying the full balance from the court

1646
03:16:04,319 --> 03:16:09,279
and then half from the county attorney's
office.

1647
03:16:07,439 --> 03:16:12,760
» We get to where you're at here. You said
city of

1648
03:16:09,760 --> 03:16:12,760
» Shoot.

1649
03:16:18,080 --> 03:16:23,640
» Yeah, please. Take me a minute to find
it.

1650
03:16:24,479 --> 03:16:32,239
I just want to make sure we're not pay
>> I know we used to run the health

1651
03:16:29,359 --> 03:16:38,560
department through
>> the county attorney see this same came

1652
03:16:35,680 --> 03:16:44,080
through for the county attorney.
>> Okay. So what we do in AP is we make

1653
03:16:42,160 --> 03:16:48,640
copies for each department. That way
they can sign off on the same bill.

1654
03:16:46,640 --> 03:16:52,880
» Okay. to where we're not having to sit
here and chase down a voucher to send

1655
03:16:50,640 --> 03:16:54,239
over to another department. So, it's
just a copy.

1656
03:16:53,840 --> 03:16:56,080
» Okay.
>> So,

1657
03:16:54,640 --> 03:16:59,520
» as long as we're not paying it twice.
>> No. So, you can see Yeah, it's broken

1658
03:16:57,680 --> 03:17:03,359
down between the different departments,
>> right? But looking at just the vouchers,

1659
03:17:01,359 --> 03:17:07,439
it does look that way. So,
>> but we just do a double voucher. That

1660
03:17:06,160 --> 03:17:09,439
way, we don't have to track them down
between departments.

1661
03:17:08,640 --> 03:17:13,600
» That works.
>> Yeah.

1662
03:17:11,279 --> 03:17:17,439
» Sorry, I'm learning, guys.
>> And we can we can make it work.

1663
03:17:15,439 --> 03:17:23,680
» So,
Okay, that answers that question on that

1664
03:17:20,239 --> 03:17:27,120
one. I know the same thing. There'll be
a few of them like that. I know our

1665
03:17:25,279 --> 03:17:32,560
Kansas communications, it's divided
between multiple

1666
03:17:29,120 --> 03:17:36,000
um there's is it Verizon? We've got a
few cell phones divided between

1667
03:17:34,239 --> 03:17:41,520
departments.
Um let's see. I think Cox, I think those

1668
03:17:39,359 --> 03:17:44,239
are all separated out in invoices.
Anyway,

1669
03:17:42,560 --> 03:17:46,800
» with AT&T,
>> AT&T is only one department.

1670
03:17:46,160 --> 03:17:50,640
» Okay.
>> Um, there was another one other than

1671
03:17:48,800 --> 03:17:55,439
Kansas Communications. That's a big one
that gets distributed between a majority

1672
03:17:54,080 --> 03:18:00,080
of the departments. I can't think of
what it is.

1673
03:17:56,720 --> 03:18:05,840
» When employees travel for the county, do
you give them a perm or do they just

1674
03:18:02,319 --> 03:18:09,120
submit like meals and such back to the
county?

1675
03:18:06,880 --> 03:18:13,520
» Supposed to send a receipt. Okay.
>> So, a lot of them have county credit

1676
03:18:11,040 --> 03:18:18,239
cards and they get the county credit
card and use that for their meals and

1677
03:18:16,000 --> 03:18:23,439
they submit the receipts to us.
>> And we do have a daily maximum.

1678
03:18:21,439 --> 03:18:25,520
» Yes. And that is in our handbook. So, I
talked to Cindy about getting a copy for

1679
03:18:25,040 --> 03:18:28,160
you.
>> And then mileage is paid through

1680
03:18:27,120 --> 03:18:30,720
payroll.
>> Okay.

1681
03:18:28,479 --> 03:18:34,840
» So, we don't actually see that on
accounts payable.

1682
03:18:31,840 --> 03:18:34,840
» Okay.

1683
03:18:37,279 --> 03:18:40,720
So, Cheryl, since you're here, I
actually have a question.

1684
03:18:40,160 --> 03:18:45,439
» Okay.
>> On yours, we had two bills from Mr.

1685
03:18:42,560 --> 03:18:49,600
Bell. Two bills from Mr. Bell. So, the
one was pretty obvious, but the other

1686
03:18:47,200 --> 03:18:54,160
one is that another court case that's
going on.

1687
03:18:52,560 --> 03:18:58,640
Do you remember?
>> Well, now, did you just get a bill?

1688
03:18:57,279 --> 03:19:04,960
» Well, there's two in this accounts
payable.

1689
03:19:01,120 --> 03:19:06,560
Well, now we just had a jury trial, so I
don't know.

1690
03:19:05,279 --> 03:19:12,120
» So, is that the
>> Well, but there was another one.

1691
03:19:08,479 --> 03:19:12,120
» It was for a different

1692
03:19:22,319 --> 03:19:27,920
» That was out of the courthouse, right?
>> Yeah.

1693
03:19:25,279 --> 03:19:30,479
» Oh, yeah. I guess it's in court.
>> Yeah.

1694
03:19:37,279 --> 03:19:44,840
It was small, but I didn't know.
>> Uh, $360.

1695
03:19:45,840 --> 03:19:50,479
So,
>> just brought copies, but I might have

1696
03:19:48,640 --> 03:19:54,000
been preparing a journal entry or
something for the case that was already

1697
03:19:52,640 --> 03:19:59,439
done.
>> That is the case on the names anyways on

1698
03:19:56,960 --> 03:20:05,120
the case.
Oh, okay. That's the that's probably the

1699
03:20:02,080 --> 03:20:10,319
winding up. I can tell you what this is.
>> There you go. So, the preliminary

1700
03:20:07,600 --> 03:20:17,439
hearing in the case of State of Kansas
versus Grill versus Savage, which

1701
03:20:13,120 --> 03:20:25,200
Brandon also prosecuted, is where we
alleged in State of Kansas versus Boo

1702
03:20:21,040 --> 03:20:31,520
that he uh told big ones and little ones
and where he got convicted. But that is

1703
03:20:28,239 --> 03:20:37,760
the original case. So I imagine that he
had some paperwork or something of the

1704
03:20:34,399 --> 03:20:42,880
winding up of that case. I don't know
whether I might ask him now if there's

1705
03:20:41,359 --> 03:20:46,160
anything else to be done with these
people

1706
03:20:44,560 --> 03:20:50,960
than I should just enter in my
appearance in that case so that I can

1707
03:20:47,680 --> 03:20:56,640
just do paperwork. I did the paperwork
of the uh the journal entry of the

1708
03:20:54,640 --> 03:21:01,600
trial.
When you have a jury trial, that thing

1709
03:20:59,439 --> 03:21:06,080
goes on with a lot of where upon and
therefore and blah blah blah for three

1710
03:21:03,279 --> 03:21:12,160
pages. So I thought if I don't do this,
it's this gonna be like a $400, you

1711
03:21:08,160 --> 03:21:16,960
know, documents. So So I did it and sent
it to him and we've now sent that to the

1712
03:21:14,479 --> 03:21:20,479
defense attorney and we shouldn't get
much of a bill.

1713
03:21:18,560 --> 03:21:25,200
» Okay. I just didn't know that that was
going on.

1714
03:21:23,439 --> 03:21:32,399
» That was fun.
Well, there's a lot of preparing and and

1715
03:21:28,399 --> 03:21:38,279
I tried to take over as much I could.
>> Okay. Well, [clears throat]

1716
03:21:34,080 --> 03:21:38,279
» so that's what that is, I'm sure.

1717
03:21:40,000 --> 03:21:45,359
» They're here somewhere.
>> I think I asked for copies yesterday and

1718
03:21:44,000 --> 03:21:48,160
they must have put it maybe in a
different file is probably what

1719
03:21:46,880 --> 03:21:53,439
happened.
>> But I brought the copies. I just don't

1720
03:21:49,920 --> 03:21:57,640
know what I did with them
to ask about it. So,

1721
03:21:57,680 --> 03:22:04,080
it's probably in my car.
Okay.

1722
03:22:02,399 --> 03:22:09,120
Is that it? I'm sorry. I didn't kind of
got distracted there from your list. I

1723
03:22:07,840 --> 03:22:14,399
thought it would be simple.
>> I'm sorry. Do we have We I assume we

1724
03:22:11,200 --> 03:22:20,880
have a contract with detention like with
>> juvenile detention.

1725
03:22:17,359 --> 03:22:23,600
That's a big contract and we only do
they bill us with us whether or not

1726
03:22:22,160 --> 03:22:25,200
someone's there or not.
>> Yes.

1727
03:22:24,479 --> 03:22:27,680
» Okay.
>> And then it's so much per person.

1728
03:22:27,120 --> 03:22:29,200
Correct.
>> Yes.

1729
03:22:28,239 --> 03:22:34,880
» Okay.
>> So it's Yeah, it's expensive. Um some

1730
03:22:32,160 --> 03:22:37,600
other counties have pulled out so but I
think it's a good thing to have in

1731
03:22:36,000 --> 03:22:43,120
Southeast Kansas. Now they're shipping
their teenagers to Kansas City

1732
03:22:40,560 --> 03:22:48,239
» and uh so but they're doing a really
good job and trying to recruit some more

1733
03:22:45,040 --> 03:22:53,600
counties to uh help us out. But
>> they're going way up west carriage right

1734
03:22:51,600 --> 03:22:57,600
» oh really
>> there's getting to be yeah fewer of them

1735
03:22:55,600 --> 03:23:00,560
around
>> they're bringing a lot of revenue from

1736
03:22:58,960 --> 03:23:04,479
other counties because they're bringing
Gerard

1737
03:23:01,680 --> 03:23:09,200
» and Kenna just so you know they are just
on the edge of

1738
03:23:07,279 --> 03:23:15,760
They created a different a separate
space within that place

1739
03:23:12,239 --> 03:23:16,880
uh for what's called secure
know.

1740
03:23:16,160 --> 03:23:21,840
» Yeah,
>> that's that would be the state of

1741
03:23:19,120 --> 03:23:24,319
Kansas. The DCF would be paying for
that.

1742
03:23:22,800 --> 03:23:29,359
» So I'm hoping that's going to come
online very soon because of selfish

1743
03:23:26,800 --> 03:23:34,800
reasons. I would like for us not to have
to halt the kids for secure care off to

1744
03:23:32,800 --> 03:23:41,120
hand over
like that. But I also wonder if when

1745
03:23:38,239 --> 03:23:46,960
that happens and they do start to get
some contractual payments from DCF or

1746
03:23:43,520 --> 03:23:52,399
the secure care part of that
would that I would be asking okay is

1747
03:23:50,560 --> 03:23:56,880
that going to bring some relief to
counties that are still paying for the

1748
03:23:53,920 --> 03:24:01,040
detention part just putting that over
there. That's what we're looking at,

1749
03:23:59,279 --> 03:24:02,880
Cheryl. And there is a pretty good
chance that we're going to get that

1750
03:24:02,160 --> 03:24:07,120
secure care.
>> The secure

1751
03:24:05,040 --> 03:24:12,200
get some good feelings about it.
>> That's what I've been told.

1752
03:24:08,960 --> 03:24:12,200
» Thank goodness.

1753
03:24:15,040 --> 03:24:21,160
» One that wasn't signed. I don't know if
you have sign

1754
03:24:21,439 --> 03:24:27,120
» on the voucher.
>> Oh, what department was that with? the

1755
03:24:25,520 --> 03:24:32,239
department had signed it, but the
receipt wasn't signed. Is that a

1756
03:24:29,920 --> 03:24:35,520
problem? All the other signed?
>> Yeah, not typically because there are

1757
03:24:33,840 --> 03:24:38,479
some that come to the clerk's office and
they just give us an email stating,

1758
03:24:36,960 --> 03:24:41,040
"Yeah, go ahead and push it through."
>> As long as the department head signs it,

1759
03:24:40,239 --> 03:24:44,040
we're good to go.
>> Yeah.

1760
03:24:49,120 --> 03:24:52,600
» I didn't need to.

1761
03:24:53,920 --> 03:24:59,840
Anyway, there's a lot and there was a
lot of invoices this time.

1762
03:24:58,239 --> 03:25:03,200
» Well, sorry. I don't mean to hold you
guys up.

1763
03:25:00,319 --> 03:25:07,680
» No, that way if something comes across
that we should pull.

1764
03:25:06,720 --> 03:25:10,680
» Oh, I'm sorry.
>> You're

1765
03:25:17,840 --> 03:25:25,439
provide you guys in your packets. This
is our lovey districts. So the

1766
03:25:23,279 --> 03:25:28,800
assessment number is the little small
number here, bold number at the bottom

1767
03:25:27,040 --> 03:25:32,640
is the grand total of that levy
assessment that that they will be

1768
03:25:30,960 --> 03:25:37,920
receiving.
So this will be for next year taxes.

1769
03:25:36,080 --> 03:25:44,760
Those have already been entered. Let me
just roll over when I do abstract.

1770
03:25:40,319 --> 03:25:44,760
» I thought that wasation request.

1771
03:25:46,399 --> 03:25:49,640
My bad.

1772
03:26:06,640 --> 03:26:11,920
» It was irritating
[laughter]

1773
03:26:10,800 --> 03:26:16,160
» in a good way.
>> Yeah.

1774
03:26:14,399 --> 03:26:21,439
All right. So, the next meeting we have
is actually on Thursday, September 10th.

1775
03:26:20,080 --> 03:26:27,680
So, I think because of the holiday,
we're off Monday.

1776
03:26:24,479 --> 03:26:33,040
Um, and then after that, on the
following Tuesday on the 15th, we'll

1777
03:26:29,760 --> 03:26:36,560
have our RNR and budget hearing. So,
that'll just be the budget hearing at

1778
03:26:34,960 --> 03:26:43,960
9:00 a.m. and then
>> 9:00 a.m.

1779
03:26:37,760 --> 03:26:43,960
» Our next meeting will be after that.

1780
03:26:47,760 --> 03:26:55,399
» I didn't bring my calendar
>> the 22nd. So then we have the 10th and

1781
03:26:52,239 --> 03:26:55,399
the 22nd.

1782
03:26:58,239 --> 03:27:04,800
So
that will be

1783
03:27:02,640 --> 03:27:10,319
» yeah
so we are having budget meetings

1784
03:27:07,200 --> 03:27:14,720
tomorrow morning and Thursday morning
and then we'll have one meeting before

1785
03:27:12,239 --> 03:27:20,319
we actually have our hearing and if we
want to do any more budgets we'll see if

1786
03:27:16,640 --> 03:27:24,840
we get it done this week. So
we'll be back at 9:00 in the morning.

1787
03:27:30,319 --> 03:27:36,560
Yep.
>> That's September.

1788
03:27:33,359 --> 03:27:38,560
» I'll make a motion to journ the meeting.
>> Second.

1789
03:27:37,279 --> 03:27:44,359
» All those in favor?
>> I I motion carried. Nick's got another

1790
03:27:40,960 --> 03:27:44,359
one to go to.
