So I think that's like a 86 00:08:38,090 --> 00:08:45,530 high priority you should put on your list of income producing activities. The splash pad is a total 87 00:08:45,530 --> 00:08:53,290 discussed. Have you guys seen the season to sister order? You have. You've not shared it with 88 00:08:53,290 --> 00:08:59,450 the county.

It is the town's money and Mr. 90 00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:14,650 Martinez in his group screwed up or oily. We need to fix that. Big time. Metaways, you know, 91 00:09:14,650 --> 00:09:20,750 was approved. I've got forms available for people that might want to fill it out and mail it 92 00:09:20,750 --> 00:09:27,150 in with potential suggestions and how to fill in all of the different form areas.

I worked with the Senator Edward D. Baker, Camp 31, 104 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:38,960 sons of the Union veterans of the Civil War in Las Vegas, and we ordered headstones 105 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:46,040 through the Veterans Administration, which is free for nine of those veterans of these wars. 106 00:10:46,040 --> 00:11:09,800 We are going to be dedicating those headstones and the reenactors will be coming up from Las Vegas at 1 o'clock on September 6th, that's a Sunday and we're going to hold a formal dedication of those headstones and we'll even have cannons there to set off to commemorate this event. 107 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,480 After words, there will be a reception at the Tone Upon Elk's Lodge. 108 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,240 This is just an invitation for anybody who would like to participate. 109 00:11:17,620 --> 00:11:18,760 Thank you. 110 00:11:18,900 --> 00:11:19,580 Thank you, Jonie. 111 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:20,500 Very nice to see you. 112 00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:21,700 Sam, anybody on the phone, please? 113 00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:23,860 Yes, Chair. 114 00:11:23,940 --> 00:11:24,780 The caller is unmuted. 115 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:26,520 Please speak on your name for the record. 116 00:11:33,750 --> 00:11:34,470 I'm on to almost hurt. 117 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,420 Good morning. 118 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,400 Susie Hurts, H-E-R-T-Z. 119 00:11:42,460 --> 00:11:46,540 I would like, if you would please, in your comment section, 120 00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:58,780 This morning to answer to us who's the person who decides how many minutes the public has to speak and how that's decided. 121 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:07,660 I think we'd all like to know that having just sprung two-minute limitations on us this morning without warning. 122 00:12:09,140 --> 00:12:19,480 Secondly, in that comment section, I would appreciate it if you would reinstate your affirming 123 00:12:20,060 --> 00:12:31,040 statements and actions that met a waste is not in a position to open a facility here in 124 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:38,360 as has been discussed in the past and whether or not you're going to write a letter of protests 125 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:46,760 to the environmental protection state agency about it. As you know, we citizens are absolutely 126 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:54,680 not in favor, absolutely against, metaways coming into this community and I would hope that 127 00:12:54,680 --> 00:12:57,260 you continue to make sure that doesn't happen. 128 00:12:59,740 --> 00:13:07,920 Also, it would like to comment and reaffirm 129 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:14,520 the fact that we know that we have limited water resources 130 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:16,680 in our water basin. 131 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:24,180 And I would seriously like to know why the RPC is allowed to 132 00:13:24,180 --> 00:13:28,680 and doesn't have any kind of direction or limitation 133 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,260 regarding approval of massive housing projects 134 00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:38,640 and massive industrial projects in our basin. 135 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,140 These requests keep coming through. 136 00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:43,300 Thank you. 137 00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:46,320 Sam, anybody on the phone, please? 138 00:13:47,340 --> 00:13:48,880 Yes, Chair, the caller is unmuted. 139 00:13:49,020 --> 00:13:50,560 Please, speak on your name for the record. 140 00:13:53,280 --> 00:14:03,100 Yes, my Patricia Vahov, RLBB, regarding the utility challenge not from the problem seems to be stagnant. 141 00:14:03,540 --> 00:14:11,800 When risk analysis becomes risk paralysis, because possible solutions that don't further impact our offer, 142 00:14:12,940 --> 00:14:19,440 or burden other taxpayers are rejected over what could go wrong progress does not happen. 143 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:28,620 So instead of thinking what if something goes wrong, maybe you should be asking, how can we make this work safely for these owners? 144 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:40,980 Based on our interactions with the board over the last year and a half, I'm not sensing that alternatives are genuinely being considered. 145 00:14:40,980 --> 00:14:48,320 It knows more like they're continually being pushed aside, yet our entire community had 146 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:53,540 benefit from supplemental alternatives, not just utility challenge, but owners. 147 00:14:54,420 --> 00:14:59,960 We're not saying alternatives are better than conventional utilities, but they do. 148 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:25,140 Offer a pathway forward for corrupt where utility infrastructure may not exist in our lifetime, if ever. And saying to go wrong, isn't really a standard, conventional systems can go wrong too. Wells can become contaminated, and septic systems can fail.

That means to please listen twice as much as we speak. 329 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:58,040 And ironically, here I am speaking, but I'm asking you to listen, please, 330 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:09,120 And my concern is I understand in the instances of August 18 when there were 203 comments between in-person and calls. 331 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:15,300 And I know that there's a budget expectation when that many more calls come in. 332 00:28:16,740 --> 00:28:24,020 But why is it necessary for the BOCC to announce two minutes or so into the start of a meeting? 333 00:28:24,020 --> 00:28:32,120 or maybe 10.05 a.m. that the comments are reduced to two minutes when you can tell, we don't 334 00:28:32,120 --> 00:28:40,040 have 200 people think at capacity so that is a concern. As to meta waste, I don't need to repeat 335 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:48,250 too much, but I would implore the community and B.O.C.C to reach out to assembly Manhattan. 336 00:28:48,250 --> 00:28:54,510 but I've been told this is a state issue, not a county issue, which I entirely disagree. 337 00:28:55,150 --> 00:29:01,970 So I think we need to do the same as there were 300 people at the Treasures Town Hall, 338 00:29:02,270 --> 00:29:07,290 which was a very big appeal to Nevada Department of Environmental Protection. 339 00:29:08,130 --> 00:29:13,950 So for those reasons, I appreciate you listening twice as much, even though I'm speaking with one 340 00:29:13,950 --> 00:29:17,950 I represent a lot of others. Thank you. Thank you, ma'am. 341 00:29:18,090 --> 00:29:19,170 Same to anybody on the phone, please. 342 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,540 I'm still out of basis. 343 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,160 Oh, I'm sorry.

No inquisition on to what it's 353 00:30:09,740 --> 00:30:16,940 entailed, what hazards could be, nothing. And then this board decided it wasn't worth them to review 354 00:30:16,940 --> 00:30:20,700 or even to vote on. How is that possible? 355 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,620 I like an answer on that one, because now we're screwed, 356 00:30:27,620 --> 00:30:32,020 But you guys already knew this because that's the way that's the reason you did it that way now 357 00:30:32,020 --> 00:30:38,140 It's in the Nevada State Environmental Agency that's trying to get their lawyers to fight our fight for us 358 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:48,540 This is the most incomprehensible I've ever seen and for what you guys get paid and my apologies last time I spoke I said 260,000 359 00:30:49,340 --> 00:30:54,820 Mr. Wagner.

Come on down, Dwight. 551 00:45:21,050 --> 00:45:32,450 Thank you. Good morning, Dwight Lily. I'm here to speak out against flock cameras and surveillance systems that we see all across the land right now. 552 00:45:32,450 --> 00:45:37,530 and I've done some research on this, and from the flock companies perspective, 553 00:45:38,230 --> 00:45:42,610 well we're just reading ISIS plates and the information disappears after a few minutes. 554 00:45:43,270 --> 00:45:44,710 But this is not true. 555 00:45:45,350 --> 00:45:55,690 There are cases, example, in Kentucky, of a law enforcement officer, using the flock camera system to scope out his former girlfriend, 556 00:45:55,690 --> 00:46:02,870 2000 times using the system to track her, where she was going, what's she was doing? And this 557 00:46:02,870 --> 00:46:08,450 is a complete violation of our fourth amendment when you're using a system like that. As I understand 558 00:46:08,450 --> 00:46:15,130 we have one set of flood cameras here in front, I'd like to see a band completely. I don't think 559 00:46:15,130 --> 00:46:20,770 we could trust the system in place here, be it law enforcement, be the government itself, 560 00:46:20,770 --> 00:46:27,390 to have a flux system, type, camera system, surveillance system that could infringe upon. 561 00:46:27,750 --> 00:46:32,330 People here be used for in a various reasons that they weren't designed for. 562 00:46:32,410 --> 00:46:32,990 Thank you. 563 00:46:33,350 --> 00:46:35,230 Thank you, Sam, anybody on the phone please? 564 00:46:36,590 --> 00:46:37,030 No chair. 565 00:46:37,390 --> 00:46:37,610 No chair? 566 00:46:37,610 --> 00:46:38,350 No chair on Mr. Limis. 567 00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:46,040 I think your button's not on there, buddy. 568 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,500 Right there, there we go. 569 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,380 Mike, check one, two, one, two. 570 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,760 Paul, Limis, LEM, U.S. 571 00:46:53,760 --> 00:47:01,320 And I'm going to run into a Mark 7 quote that came to mind when all this was going on. 572 00:47:01,500 --> 00:47:07,340 We're out in the Amargosa Valley area, just a little ways further from you here, and we 573 00:47:07,340 --> 00:47:09,960 own land there that's backed up to the Ashmetos property. 574 00:47:10,900 --> 00:47:12,980 So today I wanted to just read you real quick. 575 00:47:13,060 --> 00:47:18,800 This is by the way, brought to you from the businessman global businessman fellowship group. 576 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,100 They have asked me personally to read this. 577 00:47:21,100 --> 00:47:26,540 And this Bible, I'm reading from today, is Mr. Jim Marshall, the casino owner's personal 578 00:47:26,540 --> 00:47:30,620 Bible that he has lent me to read today, just so that it's on the record. 579 00:47:31,860 --> 00:47:33,500 For they all saw him 580 00:47:36,420 --> 00:47:42,600 and were terrified, but immediately he spoke with them and said to them, 581 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:51,380 take courage, it is I, do not be afraid, then he got into the boat with them and the wind 582 00:47:51,380 --> 00:48:01,240 stopped, and they were utterly astonished. So that's kind of a unique Bible verse to me 583 00:48:01,240 --> 00:48:08,000 because it's the accepting of the God is within all of us. It's all of our job to make 584 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:12,920 this stuff right. And these folks are given the tool of this board and local ordinances 585 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:19,120 up to this point. What we're infringing on now is a new beginning of changes. We're having 586 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:27,980 states attack town cities. It's a very unique time, but to disregard their power and all the 587 00:48:27,980 --> 00:48:33,180 work that they've done in a county to build up this system for all of us would only weaken us. 588 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:37,900 I know it gets frustrating and sometimes we just want to, you know, kill the messenger. 589 00:48:38,580 --> 00:48:43,300 But the messenger is only part of the big picture. We need to make sure that we all consider 590 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:50,680 state is who's attacking us. Thank you. Thank you, Paul. Sam anybody on the phone please. 591 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:51,440 No chair. 592 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:52,460 Come on down, Deborah. 593 00:48:57,660 --> 00:49:02,080 Deborah Thomas, T-H-O-M-A-S. 594 00:49:03,940 --> 00:49:14,720 I sometimes, there are agenda items in front of this committee and other committees that 595 00:49:14,720 --> 00:49:19,520 little, the little breakout groups. I don't want to call them breakout groups, but 596 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:33,860 there, I don't know what you call. But, for instance, the finance committee, and I think 597 00:49:33,860 --> 00:49:40,680 that it would be very helpful to the public if we saw the numbers as well. And I also 598 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:46,740 think it would be very helpful to the public if we had a clue what was going to be 599 00:49:47,180 --> 00:49:53,140 talked about so we could do some research on it. I'm sure I'm not the only one. Thank you. 600 00:49:54,620 --> 00:49:56,340 Thank you. Come on down, Gerald. 601 00:50:00,020 --> 00:50:12,040 In one commissioner's Gerald Schulti, SCH, ULTE.

They are converted to real property and they generate a minimum of $2,000 per parcel. 603 00:50:28,810 --> 00:50:33,710 per home in this town.

Thank you. 709 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:01,560 Thanks, Commissioner. 710 00:59:02,500 --> 00:59:04,800 OK, so I just have a couple of quick things. 711 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:06,420 Somebody had mentioned water. 712 00:59:06,900 --> 00:59:09,900 They mentioned everybody mentioned water all the time. 713 00:59:10,780 --> 00:59:12,960 And the reason for that is because you'll 714 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,200 hear stories of some wells going dry, 715 00:59:15,500 --> 00:59:17,000 some wells having to be punched deeper. 716 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:23,600 And then you'll hear other stories of wells are teething in different areas of the town. 717 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:29,300 We have not had a water study in 20 years, I believe, 20 years. 718 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:39,400 So I had mentioned Bakersfield had done a Lidar study where they fly over and they basically 719 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:40,780 radar down into the ground. 720 00:59:40,860 --> 00:59:42,960 They know how much water there is there. 721 00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:46,980 I mentioned that to some members of the water board and they're like, well, you know, 722 00:59:46,980 --> 00:59:54,320 those aren't tunnel, that's reliable and so the bottom line and the end of it really is 723 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:59,900 none of us at this point really know where we are on water. We're all in that same boat. 724 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:09,820 So none of us want to go dry. I mean, I've got land that I don't want it to be useless either. So there's that. So the study should be coming eventually. 725 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:29,980 It's here, and the sooner the better, I was told it would be this year, but so there's that. Secondly, I also mentioned at our last meeting, from a position of we're all residents here, we're probably all property owners and none of us want to be heard. 726 01:00:29,980 --> 01:00:37,820 anymore. I mean, I was affected deeply by the 1293 order several years ago, made property 727 01:00:37,820 --> 01:00:39,880 I had overnight, just worthless. 728 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:47,040 But which got upheld by the friggin Supreme Court, but 729 01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:47,400 anyway. 730 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:58,960 So I mentioned last meeting that regarding the data center, and I'm not. If I didn't 731 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:03,160 I don't like that location for the data center, but I'm not opposed to data centers somewhere 732 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:08,460 out, out, away, where they're not going to harm my time now, Joan. 733 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:18,260 But so I mentioned, I mentioned that we're in this together and we need to be very careful 734 01:01:18,260 --> 01:01:23,740 because people in Clark and in the state have told me, well, you know, we don't really 735 01:01:23,740 --> 01:01:28,240 give a damn what Nike County says because we're going to do what we want to do on the Clark 736 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:36,760 And I think they can fight us and they may think that they can do this and that, but we have unlimited resources to fight them until they're broke. 737 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:55,640 Two days after our last meeting, when I brought this up to all of us here, a different company, other than the one that was proposing to come here on Mance, a different company applied with the BLM for a thousand acre data project, just on the Clark side. 738 01:01:56,520 --> 01:02:03,720 using the same damn basin, so, and if that were ever to be approved or moved forward, 739 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:10,160 Clark gets any benefit there would be, and they still suck the water right out of 162, 740 01:02:10,620 --> 01:02:15,700 which, again, we don't know how much is there. So, it's just, I mean, we don't always 741 01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:20,880 have to agree on everything, and you don't even like each other, not, but we are here together. 742 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:27,220 So we better be figuring something out and that's all I got managers directors anybody 743 01:02:30,660 --> 01:02:32,600 Yeah, you want to be brick 744 01:02:33,420 --> 01:02:41,640 Chair I have the clerk. Oh go ahead and tell the ladies first. I appreciate that chair 745 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:46,580 I just wanted to throw out a couple of members. We have 46 days until early voting 746 01:02:46,580 --> 01:02:50,220 We are there. We are getting ready to start our mail and ballots 747 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:56,300 Speaking of mail and ballots, you guys have until September 4th, if you do not want a ballot. 748 01:02:57,160 --> 01:03:01,440 Please go to my office, there are on the website, there are on the states website, the form. 749 01:03:02,020 --> 01:03:05,980 If we were seen by the fourth, then we will not have to mail them, that's the only way. 750 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:09,480 We cannot mail 37,000 ballots. 751 01:03:10,260 --> 01:03:15,220 If you've already done it, we have it, but if you have it, and you are one who wants to vote in person. 752 01:03:15,900 --> 01:03:22,280 swing by either one of the offices to get online and pick that up for me and I think that's it. Thanks. 753 01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:23,900 Thanks, Corey. Nice to see you going at Arnold. 754 01:03:26,390 --> 01:03:28,790 Good morning. My name is Arnold Knightley. 755 01:03:29,070 --> 01:03:32,030 I'm the Public Communications Manager for Night County. 756 01:03:33,270 --> 01:03:38,390 I want to correct this statement made at the last meeting regarding the county's handling of public records requests. 757 01:03:38,970 --> 01:03:44,910 The sheriff stated, and I quote, as a point in comparison, the county has three people who do public records requests. 758 01:03:44,910 --> 01:03:47,910 and she does three times as many, more. 759 01:03:48,510 --> 01:03:52,350 She does more by herself than three people do for this county, in quote. 760 01:03:54,090 --> 01:03:57,510 The primary correction is the assertion that the county has three people handling public 761 01:03:57,510 --> 01:03:58,390 registered requests. 762 01:03:58,690 --> 01:03:59,530 This is not accurate. 763 01:04:00,170 --> 01:04:02,390 The county has one public registered administrator. 764 01:04:03,230 --> 01:04:08,110 The county created the position in 2002 in response to rapidly increasing workload. 765 01:04:08,750 --> 01:04:13,730 The year before the position was created, the county received 346 public records requests. 766 01:04:13,730 --> 01:04:20,350 By the end of last year, the number had increased to approximately 1.89% to 1,000, and the work 767 01:04:20,350 --> 01:04:21,770 load continues to grow. 768 01:04:22,330 --> 01:04:31,430 Through our August 2026 yesterday, the counties received 772 public records requests, a 15.4% 769 01:04:31,430 --> 01:04:33,670 increase over the same period last year. 770 01:04:34,130 --> 01:04:39,890 In August alone, the counties received 131 requests compared with 82 and August 2025, 771 01:04:39,890 --> 01:04:45,310 increase of nearly 60%. At the current pace, the county is projected to receive approximately 772 01:04:45,310 --> 01:04:52,910 1,150 public record requests in 2026. The workload cannot be measured simply by counting the number 773 01:04:52,910 --> 01:04:58,870 of requests received. August requests alone involve approximately 562 individual documents. 774 01:04:58,870 --> 01:04:59,970 They're currently... 775 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:04,680 26 open record requests, including 16 that involve reviewing e-mails. 776 01:05:05,780 --> 01:05:13,220 Actually, 42 requests during 26 every required e-mail review, and one current request alone involves 777 01:05:13,220 --> 01:05:19,120 reviewing more than 4,000 e-mails. Individual requestors can also significantly impact the 778 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:25,560 workload. Since April, one requestor has submitted 32 public records requests, nine of which 779 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:31,740 remain open. These figures demonstrate a substantial and growing public records workload for the county's 780 01:05:31,740 --> 01:05:37,020 one person. Meaningful comparisons should be based on documented request volumes, the number 781 01:05:37,020 --> 01:05:42,400 of complexity records being sought, and the time required to locate, review, redact, and produce 782 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:48,220 for responsive records. This is not intended to dispute or diminish the workload being experienced 783 01:05:48,220 --> 01:05:53,740 by the sheriff's office. We have a great relationship with the records person and work together 784 01:05:53,740 --> 01:05:58,880 often. She does a great job, particularly in an era where social media and increased public 785 01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:03,860 attention can generate significant demand in records. And oftentimes those records are used 786 01:06:03,860 --> 01:06:09,940 for clicks. It's intent to correct the record regarding county staffing and provide an accurate 787 01:06:09,940 --> 01:06:14,200 picture of the challenges the county faces in responding to public records requests. 788 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:19,000 Thank you, Honorable. I need you to spoil your name for the record. 789 01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:23,480 Finally, K&I, D-H-T-L-I. 790 01:06:23,920 --> 01:06:24,220 Thank you. 791 01:06:25,300 --> 01:06:25,980 Come on up, Tammy. 792 01:06:34,860 --> 01:06:36,520 Good morning, commissioners. 793 01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:39,640 Tammy Engel, E-N-G-E-L. 794 01:06:40,220 --> 01:06:41,780 First of all, I need to say hi, Erica. 795 01:06:42,460 --> 01:06:49,380 And then I wanted to bring to your attention that the E-Surf's Office is hosting along 796 01:06:49,380 --> 01:06:55,620 with Vitalent, a badge of honor blood drive on September 10th and 11th. 797 01:06:55,620 --> 01:07:03,820 on the 10th it is from 9 to 3 and on the 11th it will be from noon to 6 and this is at the 798 01:07:03,820 --> 01:07:10,840 prompt nugget and we hope that you will stop by and donate some much-needed blood for our area. 799 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:13,900 Thank you.

We're trying to get included in that definition in ADU unit. It's not in addition 864 01:13:13,020 --> 01:13:17,620 to a casino. We just want to say, okay, if you're going to do a casino, you can also 865 01:13:17,620 --> 01:13:22,660 do an ADU. Whether that's going to be a site built or manufactured, we want to be included in 866 01:13:22,660 --> 01:13:28,380 that. Assembly Bill 396 has already been passed and that is in the state of Nevada. They've 867 01:13:28,380 --> 01:13:33,560 already passed it to where the larger counties in cities already allow for ADU units. Clark County 868 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:37,900 is allowed it for years and years and we've done it, for years and years there, they've actually 869 01:13:37,900 --> 01:13:43,920 even removed the waiver requirements and we don't have to get any type of approvals from 870 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:45,220 neighbors or anything like that. 871 01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:50,460 But it's just something that we want to be included in, because right now you have to have 872 01:13:50,460 --> 01:13:54,200 a temporary use in order to have a manufacturing home placed on a private piece of property. 873 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,380 We have to go through all of the permitting, all of the zoning. 874 01:13:57,820 --> 01:13:58,880 We have to do soils reports. 875 01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,380 We have to do our engineered type 2 pads, our blockwork. 876 01:14:02,380 --> 01:14:08,680 We have to pay so much money in order to get these homes on these properties, and then it has to be renewed every single year. 877 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,200 Once that medical need is no longer, they have to remove that home. 878 01:14:12,780 --> 01:14:19,460 And now, whatever you take into account years on these homes, Clark County, you're only allowed to put a home that six years or newer. 879 01:14:19,940 --> 01:14:22,740 And a lot of the other jurisdictions have those same type of rules. 880 01:14:22,980 --> 01:14:27,860 So now, what are these people going to do with these homes whenever they can no longer have them on their pieces of property? 881 01:14:27,860 --> 01:14:33,600 And people also have a misconception of what brand new manufacturing homes look like. 882 01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:35,340 There are two by six construction. 883 01:14:35,940 --> 01:14:38,340 They're built just as well as a site built home. 884 01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:39,980 You can do it, steer your stucco. 885 01:14:40,140 --> 01:14:41,740 You can do tile roof if you want. 886 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:42,640 You can do metal roofs. 887 01:14:43,020 --> 01:14:45,640 I have a few pictures of some of our homes that we do have. 888 01:14:46,020 --> 01:14:47,720 But they've definitely changed over the years. 889 01:14:47,860 --> 01:14:48,760 That's for sure. 890 01:14:50,180 --> 01:14:50,680 Thank you, Chair. 891 01:14:50,980 --> 01:14:51,880 Thank you, Mr. Suleysha. 892 01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:56,040 And the great thing is they'll be converted to real property 893 01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:59,860 generate a lot more extra of it now. As we previously did this, yes. 894 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:16,600 Sir, we go. The only time that it's not is if somebody is going to do a shadow loan and they have to finance the home only. But once that's paid off, they can then tie it. I've already checked with manufacturer housing division. They said it's a land use thing and it has nothing to do with them. So you can have two homes converted to real property on one site. 895 01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:22,300 Perfect. Thank you. All right. Let's now open public comment. Sam, do we have anybody on the phone, please? 896 01:15:27,260 --> 01:15:30,540 Yes, Chair. The caller is unmuted.

Now we're looking at a medical waste dumping site. The irony, because 949 01:19:29,940 --> 01:19:38,000 between a few people, landowners, getting begging for their utilities to be put in or even 950 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:52,000 loud, and yet there's five casinos, a pool, a man-made lake, excuse me, where is the 951 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:59,960 or it is the practicality here, and are we supposed to accept that as problems they can allow others to love. 952 01:20:01,660 --> 01:20:17,460 We're supposed to say, well, that's okay. It's not okay. It is not okay with us. And you have not heard the last of us. We will be at every single meeting until something is done.

I think. Yeah. Okay. Sam. Oh, no. Come on down there. 958 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,120 Thank you commissioners for your time and consideration. 959 01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:56,980 I strongly support this argument. Can you stop for the record? I'm so sorry. Yeah. I'm sorry. Reggie federal F is in Frank. EDR all. Thank you. Again, thank you commissioners for your time and consideration on this subject. I strongly support the tax amendment 41 and bill 2026 dashed off. 960 01:20:56,980 --> 01:21:04,480 because it aligns our housing code with existing frameworks while providing our community 961 01:21:04,480 --> 01:21:11,940 with a practical and lasting option.

This is not the long long trailer days of Lucille Ball. 1048 01:26:35,540 --> 01:26:44,820 This is 2026 their home. So I hope that the county planning, whoever does the writing 1049 01:26:44,820 --> 01:26:51,360 up of the ordinance is going to just remove the name mobile home and just call it home. 1050 01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:53,740 That would solve the problem right there. 1051 01:26:53,740 --> 01:26:58,600 Thanks, do I, I completely agree with you. Come on down, Susie. 1052 01:27:02,610 --> 01:27:07,650 Susie, her, it's H-E-R-T-Z. I don't really 1053 01:27:07,650 --> 01:27:18,370 favor this change of ordinance because it ultimately is not that we need to be like 1054 01:27:18,370 --> 01:27:26,890 of Las Vegas. We're not Las Vegas. We don't need to be like them and we don't need to 1055 01:27:26,890 --> 01:27:34,330 we're a small rural town. If you can find a way to allow for temporary housing for people 1056 01:27:34,330 --> 01:27:41,370 on their properties without it looking and sounding like Las Vegas, then perhaps we should 1057 01:27:41,370 --> 01:27:51,170 entertain that. That is a basis for this ordinance I don't think is terribly healthy and this 1058 01:27:51,170 --> 01:28:00,230 one manufactured home builder. There are others out there, and there's no consensus that is 1059 01:28:00,230 --> 01:28:06,570 come from other builders who are out there to support this. And so it seems a little 1060 01:28:06,570 --> 01:28:14,550 one-sided in terms of who's proposing this change. So I'm personally not in favor of it. Thank you. 1061 01:28:14,550 --> 01:28:16,430 Thank you, Sam, anybody on the phone, please? 1062 01:28:19,010 --> 01:28:19,370 No chair. 1063 01:28:19,850 --> 01:28:21,230 Mondale and Mr. Walley? 1064 01:28:26,540 --> 01:28:27,520 Okay, here you go. 1065 01:28:28,740 --> 01:28:33,340 Chris Lally, L.A. L. L. Y. Good morning, commissioners. 1066 01:28:33,520 --> 01:28:37,500 I just wanted to speak briefly in support of the proposed ADU ordinance. 1067 01:28:38,260 --> 01:28:43,220 I actually think this is a practical change that the kind of housing flexibility we should be encouraging in 1068 01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:47,020 allowing a property owner to have one guest residence or an approved 1069 01:28:47,020 --> 01:28:50,880 ADU while keeping it limited to 1,500 square feet to me. 1070 01:28:51,140 --> 01:28:52,260 Seems like a reasonable balance. 1071 01:28:52,940 --> 01:28:55,540 For a lot of families, this could mean a place for an aging parent, 1072 01:28:55,900 --> 01:29:03,220 an adult child trying to get established or simply an opportunity for multiple generations to live close to one another while still having some independence. 1073 01:29:04,180 --> 01:29:09,160 I also appreciate that the ordinance allows both site-built and qualifying manufacturer homes. 1074 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:12,860 That gives residence options without simply removing standards. 1075 01:29:13,440 --> 01:29:23,500 My only request would be to make the process and requirements as clear as possible to property owners so people understand up front what they can build and what approvals will be required. 1076 01:29:24,340 --> 01:29:28,040 Over all though, I think this is a sensible change and I do support it moving forward. 1077 01:29:28,320 --> 01:29:30,260 Thank you, thank you. 1078 01:29:30,320 --> 01:29:31,860 Sam anybody on the phone please. 1079 01:29:32,600 --> 01:29:32,980 No chair. 1080 01:29:33,220 --> 01:29:34,040 Mondale Linda. 1081 01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:40,740 Linda Clark, CLARK. 1082 01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:42,600 So it's my understanding. 1083 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:48,320 you don't really want the little homes. You'd prefer to have bigger trailers. 1084 01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:54,560 Okay, who can afford all that? I was raised in a little tiny two-bedroom, 1085 01:29:55,740 --> 01:29:59,920 what I call trailer trash place in Lancaster with five kids. 1086 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:06,860 And my mom, living in a little trailer. If my mom had had to go through what this is to make her buy a bigger mobile home, 1087 01:30:07,100 --> 01:30:13,080 she worked as a waiter supporting five kids. I'm sure we have people here like that. How can they do that? They can't. 1088 01:30:13,240 --> 01:30:18,340 And that was in the days before we got welfare and snapping all this other stuff we're giving out today. 1089 01:30:18,900 --> 01:30:25,220 So if a person has something now and it's working for their family and they're keeping it up, why do we need to make them change it? 1090 01:30:25,220 --> 01:30:26,660 makes no sense to me at all. 1091 01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:30,200 They are people that live here, and they deserve a home. 1092 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:31,280 Thank you. 1093 01:30:31,300 --> 01:30:31,980 Thank you, Sam. 1094 01:30:32,480 --> 01:30:33,740 Anybody on the phone please? 1095 01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:36,320 No chair. 1096 01:30:36,620 --> 01:30:37,660 Come on down, Diane. 1097 01:30:41,180 --> 01:30:42,120 I think we're all saying this. 1098 01:30:42,280 --> 01:30:45,800 I am self-worth, so you need to be CHWO, all RCH. 1099 01:30:46,380 --> 01:30:49,240 Well, at my age, and I am the queen of my own manufacturer. 1100 01:30:49,900 --> 01:30:50,340 Oh, it's right. 1101 01:30:52,100 --> 01:30:53,960 I could tell you that there could be a time 1102 01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:56,620 when I would need to be closer to my family 1103 01:30:56,620 --> 01:31:05,280 have to live in a little one bedroom, house or casito or manufactured home.

Come on down, Tammy. 1144 01:34:28,020 --> 01:34:34,720 Tammy Pittman, PIT, M.A.N., great idea, however, I think it could be abused, and I think there's 1145 01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:40,340 an addition that the ordinance saying that at least the homeowner must be on the property, 1146 01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:44,820 they can't rent out multiple, they can't just leave and rent out those homes. 1147 01:34:45,280 --> 01:34:47,860 Because when you live there, you care. 1148 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:53,300 When you're renting, things can go downhill and sometimes some landlords are not the 1149 01:34:54,020 --> 01:34:55,540 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Sam. 1150 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:57,260 Anybody on the phone please? 1151 01:34:58,640 --> 01:34:59,960 Yes, Chair. The caller is unmuted. 1152 01:35:10,740 --> 01:35:25,200 I'm in favor of taxing this proposal for a manufacturer home as an ADU. It's practical. It's feasible for many people. I think we need to do it. Thank you. 1153 01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:31,360 Thank you. Come on down, Paul. Yeah, no, I learned it. Right to the point. Oh, well, hell. 1154 01:35:34,100 --> 01:35:35,120 Hello, Paul. 1155 01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:43,060 Lee must L. E. M. U. S. Are you folks to applicants? Oh, how many units are you trying to build 1156 01:35:43,060 --> 01:35:48,900 if you don't remember? Yeah, so we're going to just have you comment. I can't go back. If it's okay with a 1157 01:35:48,900 --> 01:35:55,220 may act mass permission to ask some question rules or the, okay. Yeah, so okay. Okay. No, the reason why I was 1158 01:35:55,220 --> 01:36:02,560 They're saying, you know, these developments come in and they do subdivide, but like in 1159 01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:06,940 Amar Gosa Valley where we're at, we have something called land use entitlement rather 1160 01:36:06,940 --> 01:36:07,480 than zoning. 1161 01:36:08,020 --> 01:36:12,280 And we kind of roll back zoning and put it into the people's hands where they have a right 1162 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:18,100 to say, do they want to build, do they want to grow, do they want to farm, do they want 1163 01:36:18,100 --> 01:36:18,720 to do agriculture? 1164 01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:24,400 So, so land use entitlement is another designation, I was just going to make a suggestion 1165 01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:27,800 as a planning guide that sat on the Planning Committee and now Margot Savali and worked 1166 01:36:27,800 --> 01:36:31,440 on the comprehensive area planned for Night County and also Amargot Savali. 1167 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:35,900 It would be wise to just consider that's fantastic. 1168 01:36:36,180 --> 01:36:41,480 And then when you do that type of project, you could also do like an approved plan and allow 1169 01:36:41,480 --> 01:36:46,420 all the other members of the community to also go ahead and do a pre-approved plan to just be 1170 01:36:46,420 --> 01:36:50,500 able to fast track these for everybody in the community if somebody wanted to. 1171 01:36:50,500 --> 01:36:56,920 Because right now our our thing is capital we need money and these this would generate a ton of tax revenue 1172 01:36:56,920 --> 01:37:03,280 I mean where we're looking at and I'm gonna go to Valley, you know, if you were to subdivide some of those lots and actually occupy them 1173 01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:13,240 We could solve a lot of our problems with our tax debt and with our commissioner and our night county debt right now. So I was just gonna say I think for the project far as there approval is concerned 1174 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:19,640 That's what I wanted to ask was their personal approval. You know, I'm for the people I want to see the people be able to do what they want with their land 1175 01:37:19,640 --> 01:37:23,780 and be able to make some money, be able to subdivide them if they want, and be able to 1176 01:37:23,780 --> 01:37:26,660 sell them and have the rights to do what they want with their property, so that's land 1177 01:37:26,660 --> 01:37:27,780 use entitlement. 1178 01:37:28,900 --> 01:37:29,620 Thank you. 1179 01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:30,940 Same anybody on the phone, please? 1180 01:37:33,270 --> 01:37:33,630 No chair. 1181 01:37:34,170 --> 01:37:34,530 One answer. 1182 01:37:38,740 --> 01:37:39,640 Oh, members, everybody. 1183 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:41,480 Brush out the jail, HNSOM. 1184 01:37:43,080 --> 01:37:44,280 You know, I'm all poor. 1185 01:37:46,380 --> 01:37:53,200 Making necessary changes in order to be able to bring in optional housing, 1186 01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:58,520 facilities, structures. I don't want to see it be limited just 1187 01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:03,640 manufactured homes or which everybody is classified as manufactured homes. 1188 01:38:04,760 --> 01:38:08,000 There are actually great homes or built out of shipping containers. 1189 01:38:09,220 --> 01:38:15,820 I'm in development with somebody on building basically a steel 1190 01:38:15,820 --> 01:38:22,600 instead type of a structure that is actually going to be cited with lightweight concrete 1191 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:29,060 so that it is fireproof. It will not be able to burn unless you catch up on fire on the 1192 01:38:29,060 --> 01:38:35,140 inside and I find that as being something that could be very useful for a lot of people out 1193 01:38:35,140 --> 01:38:41,780 here in our climate. So I want to see two of it that everybody keeps an open mind so that we 1194 01:38:41,780 --> 01:38:43,460 can have some other options. 1195 01:38:44,200 --> 01:38:45,640 Let's not keep it limited to just 1196 01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:48,040 manufactured homes that everybody knows 1197 01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:49,140 that comes in on a trailer. 1198 01:38:50,040 --> 01:38:51,240 And I'll yield. 1199 01:38:51,500 --> 01:38:52,360 Thank you. 1200 01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:52,800 Thank you. 1201 01:38:53,020 --> 01:38:53,780 Come on, no, ma'am. 1202 01:38:58,320 --> 01:38:59,480 Good morning, Julia. 1203 01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:01,460 I'm using all MUSAL. 1204 01:39:02,220 --> 01:39:06,960 This is actually kind of ironic that it's on the agenda today. 1205 01:39:07,300 --> 01:39:12,060 I have a manufactured home, three bedroom, two bath. 1206 01:39:12,680 --> 01:39:14,600 My mother is almost 92. 1207 01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:22,900 and I'm trying to talk her into coming here. But my mother still drives, plays billiards, 1208 01:39:24,740 --> 01:39:31,040 gardens, plays botchie ball, and she did not want to come because she likes her independence. 1209 01:39:32,040 --> 01:39:38,580 Even though she still needs somebody to be around here, and we talked about putting something 1210 01:39:38,580 --> 01:39:45,980 on the property. It doesn't have to be a big huge manufactured home. They have a smaller 1211 01:39:45,980 --> 01:39:59,980 manufactured homes and why put all that money in it to it and then have somebody have to 1212 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:16,820 So bad that I'm sure there's plenty of family members that would be able to use, you know, the ADU.

Thank you. 1213 01:40:16,840 --> 01:40:18,560 Thank you, Sam anybody else, please. 1214 01:40:24,440 --> 01:40:24,840 No, chair. 1215 01:40:24,980 --> 01:40:30,060 Okay, we're going to close up public comment. Commissioners, do you have questions for the applicants or solicitors? 1216 01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:32,020 No, I just have statements if you don't mind. 1217 01:40:32,020 --> 01:40:39,080 read it. There was stuff that was said. The I understand that it's 1500 square foot or less and we 1218 01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:45,580 already have conceit is, which are site belts. The difference, this, what this does is we already 1219 01:40:45,580 --> 01:40:52,020 have a site belt capability. Now we're going to have a manufactured belt capability. And so 1220 01:40:52,020 --> 01:40:58,380 manufactured could be basically a lot of different things, not just manufactured housing as we see 1221 01:40:58,380 --> 01:41:02,820 from Factory Home Center. I also found it very interesting that 14 people actually agreed 1222 01:41:02,820 --> 01:41:09,260 with this. Wow. I'm not, I'm, I'm floored. We actually agree on something.

My only question is that 1226 01:41:25,620 --> 01:41:32,540 This manufactured homes is a term, and I'm supportive of this, but just the ambiguity that 1227 01:41:32,540 --> 01:41:35,100 was just inserted, this can be more than just manufactured homes. 1228 01:41:35,420 --> 01:41:38,500 I'm just questioning what that means. 1229 01:41:38,780 --> 01:41:44,240 A manufactured home can be depending on who you're talking to, different things. 1230 01:41:44,660 --> 01:41:51,020 Anyone who uses certain systems knows that manufactured home is commonly referred to as a mobile 1231 01:41:51,020 --> 01:41:51,520 home. 1232 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:52,260 And that's fine. 1233 01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:55,480 When it's attached, it has a certificate of attachment, 1234 01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:57,580 and some guy goes and takes three bars and twists. 1235 01:41:57,800 --> 01:41:59,540 And then he signs the magic piece of paper. 1236 01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:01,200 It says, this is now attached. 1237 01:42:01,300 --> 01:42:02,380 It gets filed with the assessor 1238 01:42:02,380 --> 01:42:04,160 and it becomes real property. 1239 01:42:04,660 --> 01:42:06,760 On the legal definition of real property, of course, 1240 01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:07,240 is separate. 1241 01:42:07,640 --> 01:42:09,280 And so we can talk about this for 35 minutes. 1242 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:10,040 I won't do that. 1243 01:42:10,260 --> 01:42:12,840 My question is, just bluntly and directly, 1244 01:42:13,940 --> 01:42:16,640 is that this only pertains to manual facture 1245 01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:17,800 to housing that is attached? 1246 01:42:18,220 --> 01:42:18,780 Is that correct? 1247 01:42:19,760 --> 01:42:20,900 Can anyone answer that question? 1248 01:42:21,860 --> 01:42:25,400 So, no, it's not, you can do either a site built, 1249 01:42:25,900 --> 01:42:28,500 ADU, or you can do a manufactured home that is an ADU. 1250 01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,120 So now if you're going to be financing the home as a 1251 01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:33,680 Catalone, it will maintain its personal property status, 1252 01:42:33,980 --> 01:42:35,880 but after it's paid off, then it can be converted. 1253 01:42:36,280 --> 01:42:39,100 If it's cash, or if they want to absorb it, 1254 01:42:39,220 --> 01:42:40,960 do like a refire or something like that, 1255 01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:42,280 then it would be converted to real property. 1256 01:42:42,520 --> 01:42:44,340 It just depends on the specific circumstance. 1257 01:42:46,330 --> 01:42:56,950 Also, a point out that in the year 2000, Senate Bill 323 took the discrimination of manufactured 1258 01:42:56,950 --> 01:43:03,290 homes away and identified them as single-family dwellings, and that allowed manufactured homes 1259 01:43:03,290 --> 01:43:10,750 to go in subdivisions alongside conventional-built, stick-belt homes without discriminating 1260 01:43:10,750 --> 01:43:11,590 against them. 1261 01:43:11,590 --> 01:43:16,690 So manufactured homes in the state and Nevada are considered single family dwellings. 1262 01:43:20,210 --> 01:43:23,530 So the question first of all, Fannie Mae is not going to buy that. 1263 01:43:23,770 --> 01:43:25,450 So it would have to be a hard money alone. 1264 01:43:25,650 --> 01:43:27,110 And it just causes a lot of complications. 1265 01:43:27,650 --> 01:43:29,510 I hope for anyone listening, 1266 01:43:29,510 --> 01:43:31,770 Jenny Lee understands that Fannie Mae, 1267 01:43:31,810 --> 01:43:33,510 I don't know if FHA will ensure it. 1268 01:43:33,590 --> 01:43:35,450 This goes away into inside baseball stuff, 1269 01:43:35,570 --> 01:43:37,830 but Fannie Mae is not going to buy that probably. 1270 01:43:38,590 --> 01:43:40,010 And so there will be a lot of issues there. 1271 01:43:40,110 --> 01:43:41,390 That's nothing to do with this law. 1272 01:43:41,390 --> 01:43:45,050 But, again, I'm just, I'm just questioning just for the legislative record. 1273 01:43:45,470 --> 01:43:49,270 The intent of this is just for, there's manufactured homes that are attached. 1274 01:43:49,350 --> 01:43:52,630 They're manufactured homes that are not attached, both are commonly purchased 1275 01:43:53,390 --> 01:43:56,090 in, in, in, in, in, in, and that's fine. 1276 01:43:57,150 --> 01:44:01,330 But how do we distinguish the difference between, if I, if I just rolled up, 1277 01:44:02,310 --> 01:44:08,350 I don't know, a pickup truck with, you know, some crazy looking thing in the back of it, 1278 01:44:08,350 --> 01:44:12,270 I'm living out of there, that could be considered an accessory to willing unit under this bill. 1279 01:44:16,100 --> 01:44:21,580 I want to point out that anything can be an accessory to willing. 1280 01:44:21,780 --> 01:44:24,940 Connex boxes that are converted in the engine near into housing. 1281 01:44:25,620 --> 01:44:34,160 Boxable, which is a company that is growing by big numbers that build casitas in 80 use. 1282 01:44:34,840 --> 01:44:41,040 They are regulated through the manufactured housing division, along with what I sell. 1283 01:44:41,040 --> 01:44:49,420 And I'm not the only one, even though I'm bringing this bill, I'm speaking for the industry in general. 1284 01:44:49,780 --> 01:44:57,620 We've got craftsman homes that is going to applaud if we get this past because they're going to be able to sell more homes too. 1285 01:44:57,720 --> 01:44:59,420 I'm not doing this to sell more homes. 1286 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:08,560 We've got Clayton Holmes out of Vegas, which is a very big catalog store, and we've got all kinds of internet dealerships.

Recently we had a little pond going 1528 02:03:21,260 --> 02:03:31,760 at winery down by the mobile station. All the heavy trucks we ended up with a 1529 02:03:31,760 --> 02:03:39,520 people developing things. But until we have the proper drainage, you know, it's just not going 1530 02:03:39,520 --> 02:03:45,240 to work. And flood control is something that's getting out of hand in this community. 1531 02:03:46,260 --> 02:03:51,820 Because I mean, look, if we cover up 80 acres, where's that water going to go? It's not 1532 02:03:51,820 --> 02:03:57,160 fair to the people when you're sending all that water and debris into their property. 1533 02:04:03,170 --> 02:04:03,730 I'm 1534 02:04:03,730 --> 02:04:11,770 to look at some different ways of doing to qualify these people for building there. 1535 02:04:12,030 --> 02:04:14,650 And flood control has got to be one of them. 1536 02:04:14,870 --> 02:04:15,390 Thank you. 1537 02:04:15,770 --> 02:04:15,970 Thanks, sir. 1538 02:04:16,270 --> 02:04:16,870 Come on, Dancer. 1539 02:04:27,630 --> 02:04:27,890 Okay. 1540 02:04:28,190 --> 02:04:34,370 My name is Mike McKenzie, MECK, ENCA, E Splash Mall, BHL. 1541 02:04:34,850 --> 02:04:39,430 I've 42 years experience in what I call a man event, what I call a distribution 1542 02:04:39,430 --> 02:04:40,170 management. 1543 02:04:40,170 --> 02:04:46,250 member of the American Society of Civil Engineering since 1994 and what are facilities 1544 02:04:46,250 --> 02:04:52,210 construction.

Some of the reason smaller 1545 02:04:52,210 --> 02:04:58,710 wants to not create more water, more road money, more share, more fire capacity, 1546 02:04:59,190 --> 02:04:59,970 You'll need to create more. 1547 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:10,200 Our houses on the same land. 8162s we already know is a verb-pump, overallocated. You just voted 5-0 for a water ban. 1548 02:05:11,100 --> 02:05:18,260 Because it will opt for a soft submission to take that giant man. Housing density is the same math on a smaller scale. 1549 02:05:18,260 --> 02:05:20,920 A half acre lot is one household. 1550 02:05:21,580 --> 02:05:26,080 Cut that down to 10,000, 20,000 square feet. 1551 02:05:26,480 --> 02:05:28,240 Then now you're typing four more toilets. 1552 02:05:28,840 --> 02:05:32,560 More sinks, more landscape, more people watching the cars. 1553 02:05:33,420 --> 02:05:34,440 We can't handle that. 1554 02:05:35,100 --> 02:05:38,640 And rezoning does not add one acre foot of water 1555 02:05:38,640 --> 02:05:40,120 to the sock for her. 1556 02:05:40,320 --> 02:05:44,800 It's going to take away roads, services, work area. 1557 02:05:45,240 --> 02:05:46,480 They all work the same way. 1558 02:05:46,700 --> 02:05:47,380 More houses. 1559 02:05:47,380 --> 02:05:52,820 means more road trips. There are already failing. Take a look at Hayford Ranch Road. You have 1560 02:05:52,820 --> 02:05:59,000 that development going there. That road is proud. I'm sorry for my language. So again, I'm 1561 02:05:59,000 --> 02:06:04,760 just against it. Please be careful what you do. We only have one arc part. Don't add more 1562 02:06:04,760 --> 02:06:08,340 people to it. Thank you, sir. Sam, anybody on the phone, please? 1563 02:06:12,720 --> 02:06:13,120 No chair. 1564 02:06:13,660 --> 02:06:14,220 One down, Linda. 1565 02:06:16,810 --> 02:06:21,390 Linda Clark, Sally R. K. I heard the last meeting we went to when they talked 1566 02:06:21,390 --> 02:06:26,810 about this project.

And I think, why are we doing this to people? Doesn't make 1569 02:06:39,850 --> 02:06:40,690 any sense? 1570 02:06:43,350 --> 02:06:47,990 It's lunacy, if you ask me, all these building in these new homes, they're lovely. 1571 02:06:47,990 --> 02:06:54,250 Sure, they are costs a lot of money.

That's too many houses. 189 house or 98 houses is too many. We already have too many subdivisions going in with these small little lots. I really don't want this to continue to go on. Also, you do realize that one of the roads that goes up against is called 1681 02:15:55,820 --> 02:16:00,100 industrial road, we have gravel pits over there and I own gravel pits over there. 1682 02:16:00,120 --> 02:16:06,220 I own a gravel pit over there.

Perump has high 1693 02:16:51,140 --> 02:16:54,560 density developments in the south end of town. And if we have to 1694 02:16:54,560 --> 02:16:59,320 have them, which I'm not a fan of, they need to stay there. People 1695 02:16:59,320 --> 02:17:06,280 move to Perump to own a house that is not cheek by jowl with their neighbors and they move 1696 02:17:06,280 --> 02:17:13,840 here to Perump to have a home.

I already know 1699 02:17:28,340 --> 02:17:34,880 Anyone who's property is on the lower winery or a person's road will no longer enjoy our stunning sunsets 1700 02:17:34,880 --> 02:17:40,860 or and will lose their privacy as people are peering over their back fence into their backyards. 1701 02:17:42,080 --> 02:17:46,360 These are our front yards depending if you're on down winery. 1702 02:17:46,940 --> 02:17:51,120 The three story homes I see me, their property values are also going to plummet. 1703 02:17:51,120 --> 02:17:54,840 It's common dollars that our basin is already severely 1704 02:17:56,180 --> 02:17:56,760 overallocated. 1705 02:17:57,880 --> 02:18:00,740 And the proposed density would put eight times the water usage 1706 02:18:00,740 --> 02:18:02,200 been currently allocated. 1707 02:18:02,860 --> 02:18:04,080 That's unconscionable. 1708 02:18:04,640 --> 02:18:07,560 We already, I know I only have two minutes. 1709 02:18:07,860 --> 02:18:09,960 The owner of this property does not have live here 1710 02:18:09,960 --> 02:18:11,820 and does not experience the effects of this urban 1711 02:18:11,820 --> 02:18:13,440 blight in the midst of our town. 1712 02:18:13,980 --> 02:18:16,740 The motivations for anyone championing this project 1713 02:18:16,740 --> 02:18:18,060 should be examined closely. 1714 02:18:18,540 --> 02:18:19,680 Please vote no. 1715 02:18:20,990 --> 02:18:23,110 Perfect timing. Thank you. Come on down, 1716 02:18:29,760 --> 02:18:29,760 Dwight. 1717 02:18:30,980 --> 02:18:31,940 There you go. 1718 02:18:32,240 --> 02:18:40,400 Right, Lily, Eli, Eli, Eli. I was at the planning board meeting when this room was packed with people from the winery objecting to this development. 1719 02:18:41,360 --> 02:18:49,860 And I guess I'm just not understanding my wife and I moved here this going on 24 years to a world down. 1720 02:18:49,860 --> 02:18:55,940 And it was laid out with master plans and master plans that have been read done and now we 1721 02:18:55,940 --> 02:19:03,260 seem to be tearing the master plan up one development at a time where again high density 1722 02:19:03,260 --> 02:19:09,880 housing into a world down, which is by its very nature would be larger lots. 1723 02:19:10,380 --> 02:19:16,540 Now this is affecting the people up in the winery industry, but it's also affecting people driving 1724 02:19:16,540 --> 02:19:26,060 on Homestead that we'll see another 4,500 cars a day coming on to 160 in an intersex 1725 02:19:26,060 --> 02:19:30,280 and it's already screwed up from the gas station, it was built there on the corner. 1726 02:19:31,140 --> 02:19:32,000 So there's that issue. 1727 02:19:32,140 --> 02:19:33,440 They've got the flooding issue. 1728 02:19:35,060 --> 02:19:39,280 The county and the town doesn't have the resource, it's a service to population. 1729 02:19:39,620 --> 02:19:44,440 It has now, yet it's anticipating adding thousands of more people. 1730 02:19:44,440 --> 02:19:49,280 Commission, this doesn't make any sense, this development, I'm not going to speak on another 1731 02:19:49,280 --> 02:19:54,980 one that's on the agenda, but why are we continually having people come to the planning 1732 02:19:54,980 --> 02:19:59,960 commission, coming to the planning planners, and getting approved? 1733 02:20:00,000 --> 02:20:07,700 Global for density housing, high-density housing, when we're a roll town with limited resource. We have 1734 02:20:07,700 --> 02:20:14,660 12,000 acre feet of confirmed water from the last study with another 3,000 acre feet deeper into 1735 02:20:14,660 --> 02:20:20,020 the ground that we haven't even explored yet, and yet we keep piling people into this. I don't 1736 02:20:20,020 --> 02:20:27,340 understand it. I want you to turn this down. I want you to turn them leaf here and go by the master 1737 02:20:27,340 --> 02:20:32,600 we have right now. Thank you. Thank you. Come on down in front please. 1738 02:20:36,050 --> 02:20:45,050 Hi commissioners. Mary Greenspan Blackwell, BLACKW. I LL. I'm just here to speak from my heart today. 1739 02:20:45,450 --> 02:20:53,050 Everyone's giving you such great legal advice and this and that, but I moved here 30 years ago. 1740 02:20:53,050 --> 02:20:55,090 And I was in real estate. 1741 02:20:55,790 --> 02:20:58,770 When I first started selling out here 30 years ago, 1742 02:20:59,130 --> 02:21:01,810 people were coming to me, they wanted an acre lot. 1743 02:21:02,350 --> 02:21:04,410 They wanted horse property. 1744 02:21:04,890 --> 02:21:07,210 And that's the way it was for many years. 1745 02:21:08,030 --> 02:21:12,850 And then people were happy when the half acre homes came in, 1746 02:21:12,850 --> 02:21:15,630 because an acre is too big for some people. 1747 02:21:16,090 --> 02:21:20,970 And then we were so thrilled when Mountain Falls started developing, 1748 02:21:20,970 --> 02:21:28,850 it gave the people that wanted that type of living area, a place to live and everybody was happy. 1749 02:21:29,710 --> 02:21:36,690 And all the 30 years that I was working here sold hundreds and hundreds of properties and homes 1750 02:21:36,690 --> 02:21:44,570 I never once had anybody come and say, oh I'd like to live in a little box that's right next door 1751 02:21:44,570 --> 02:21:50,670 where I don't if I sneeze somebody's gonna hear me. That's not why any of us moved here to 1752 02:21:50,670 --> 02:21:56,650 We love this place. The way it is. And I understand development. I understand progress. 1753 02:21:56,770 --> 02:22:07,130 I'm not against it. But please, you guys are the stewards of this valley. Would you just please think twice before you, you know, 1754 02:22:07,710 --> 02:22:15,410 make this a place that I got to go down to Vegas and look at that ugly, those ugly homes as I'm going down blue diamond. 1755 02:22:15,410 --> 02:22:20,210 we don't I don't want to look out my window and see that and I don't think you do either. 1756 02:22:20,630 --> 02:22:24,610 Thank you please vote no. Thank you Sam anybody on the phone please. 1757 02:22:32,570 --> 02:22:32,850 No chair. 1758 02:22:33,910 --> 02:22:39,330 You're not close public comment. All right, commissioners questions for the folks. 1759 02:22:40,270 --> 02:22:41,070 Any folks? 1760 02:22:43,520 --> 02:22:45,780 There is a chairman. Oh, sorry. Go ahead. 1761 02:22:47,920 --> 02:22:50,500 You mean my gavel if you like it. It's up to you. 1762 02:22:51,920 --> 02:22:53,700 Mr. Chairman, who do you want me to speak her? 1763 02:22:53,700 --> 02:22:54,460 Yeah, go ahead, sir. 1764 02:22:54,760 --> 02:22:55,500 Thank you. 1765 02:22:56,300 --> 02:22:56,380 Thank you, Mr. 1766 02:22:58,000 --> 02:22:59,220 This is my district. 1767 02:23:00,320 --> 02:23:03,480 So I obviously know more about this than some of their developments going on. 1768 02:23:05,420 --> 02:23:10,520 One thing I want to point out is a strange thing that happens here with property discussions. 1769 02:23:11,780 --> 02:23:13,840 And I want everyone to be aware of this. 1770 02:23:14,280 --> 02:23:17,240 I've heard the same people talking about property rights. 1771 02:23:17,900 --> 02:23:20,320 You're saying, well, do whatever we want with your land, it's your land. 1772 02:23:21,240 --> 02:23:26,320 I want to see you do whatever you want with your land and then they speak on something 1773 02:23:26,320 --> 02:23:29,240 like this and they say, well, no, you can't, you can't do this. 1774 02:23:30,940 --> 02:23:34,700 I'm just warning that if we run around telling people, do whatever we want with your property, 1775 02:23:35,080 --> 02:23:38,740 this would catch up not just to these people, but to us as a government, if we take a position 1776 02:23:38,740 --> 02:23:45,260 of this, no water for developments like this, but yes, water, if you want to put 300 tiny 1777 02:23:45,260 --> 02:23:51,380 homes in a one-acre lot, using consistent, that best it does raise concerns about equal protection. 1778 02:23:51,660 --> 02:23:54,720 And I just want people to think about that, some people who are not admonishing anyone, 1779 02:23:54,880 --> 02:23:59,260 I'm just saying be aware of that because it's an inconsistent position and it could be legally 1780 02:23:59,260 --> 02:24:02,320 potentially dangerous if we as a county hold that position. 1781 02:24:02,500 --> 02:24:06,460 It's okay for you to speak on it, but it's just something that I want to point out. 1782 02:24:07,080 --> 02:24:09,600 My objection here is pretty simple. 1783 02:24:10,720 --> 02:24:12,840 I do not like the density being proposed here. 1784 02:24:12,840 --> 02:24:18,000 addition of homes here right now, which are two separate issues, and there are three things 1785 02:24:18,500 --> 02:24:22,260 that I want to discuss about this. One is traffic. 1786 02:24:25,140 --> 02:24:26,500 I don't, I know, come here to your 1787 02:24:26,500 --> 02:24:30,740 boards from Massachusetts, I know, to people who should call it out there, and root nine 1788 02:24:30,740 --> 02:24:35,380 in Massachusetts, I watched as well as they built up a native built up in those towns. root nine 1789 02:24:35,380 --> 02:24:41,560 is a kind of a just a road almost almost, actually, almost exactly like 160, and it just got 1790 02:24:41,560 --> 02:24:48,220 North and North and I have memories 25 years ago sitting in traffic and you go, you know, half a mile and 20 minutes 1791 02:24:49,400 --> 02:24:53,660 Chicago the same thing for my Chicago people root 34 for those of you and those Western suburbs 1792 02:24:53,660 --> 02:24:59,960 I live there for a short period and you see this is just a natural occurrence when you start dumping housing in places that 1793 02:25:00,000 --> 02:25:26,080 May not necessarily be for that kind of housing, but exceptions are made, or plans were bad. My concern, it's not even about my district. Here, it's about the traffic on that corner. That corner, on homestead, 160, could potentially be very, very bad, especially people are going the persons. And I know that there's another access that they want through the little area, under the people in court. 1794 02:25:26,080 --> 02:25:30,780 have no love that, but uh, that we're going to go up to Parsons to access this. It's going to 1795 02:25:30,780 --> 02:25:35,720 just dump all of this traffic in that area. It will back up on the street, probably in both directions, 1796 02:25:35,800 --> 02:25:40,220 and then we have that disaster across the street with the people all turning around illegally, 1797 02:25:40,340 --> 02:25:44,200 because they want to be able to go from the gas station, the pot store, or wherever they're going. 1798 02:25:44,680 --> 02:25:49,220 Lieutenant Clensor promised me he would retire until they fixed that light. He retired anyway. He's 1799 02:25:49,220 --> 02:25:53,340 still mad about the light. I'm sure out there somewhere. The light we have been able to fix for a 1800 02:25:53,340 --> 02:25:58,220 years now. It's just if we can't fix a light, I just don't know if we can be trusted. 1801 02:25:58,540 --> 02:26:04,640 As a government to do this, I think we really let our people down. So that's the traffic 1802 02:26:04,640 --> 02:26:11,020 part of it. The infrastructure part of it. It are the eroding roads. You know, we all passed 1803 02:26:11,020 --> 02:26:14,500 a million dollars a row to pair. And you never guessed it because money wasn't spent 1804 02:26:14,500 --> 02:26:20,320 in your career later. The plan, as we found out, was to give them money back. I used that 1805 02:26:20,320 --> 02:26:29,080 story and I get a laugh every single time from somebody who's I'm meeting with, but that's the reality here, that's the reality here and I can. 1806 02:26:29,600 --> 02:26:39,480 The infrastructure is not catch up with this kind of densely packed development or any development right now in that area. 1807 02:26:39,480 --> 02:26:45,580 it's not conducive to that. The roads, infrastructure, I guess they go, they go hand in hand. 1808 02:26:45,920 --> 02:26:49,060 My objection isn't water, not a water engineer, I'm not a scientist. 1809 02:26:51,740 --> 02:26:55,300 I'm in a terrible school in science, so I'm not going to pretend to know anything about water. 1810 02:26:56,460 --> 02:27:00,700 And that's out of our jurisdiction as the DA will tell you is the water is owned by the state. 1811 02:27:01,000 --> 02:27:06,020 So we can object on those grounds. And it's fine, but my objection is just it makes no sense to put this here. 1812 02:27:06,020 --> 02:27:11,320 the density of it makes no sense. It will affect every single traveler who goes down there, 1813 02:27:11,480 --> 02:27:16,320 not just people in my neighborhood, or people in my district. And that is why I post this 1814 02:27:16,320 --> 02:27:21,320 thank you Mr. Chairman. Thank you. Mr. Chair, I'd like to speak after Commissioner of Strict 1815 02:27:21,320 --> 02:27:25,560 Flint, please. Sure. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 1816 02:27:25,560 --> 02:27:29,760 Thank you, Chair. I was just going to ask about the flooding. I see that there's been some measures 1817 02:27:29,760 --> 02:27:35,600 within this subdivision to address flooding and was wondering what you foresee here. It's hard 1818 02:27:35,600 --> 02:27:40,620 It's hard to see when you look at it online, and if the people have even seen that, 1819 02:27:40,660 --> 02:27:45,220 to take it or measures, because why do roads have been a challenge for a long time? 1820 02:27:45,640 --> 02:27:49,780 And I just think it's nice for once someone's coming forward with some ideas for flooding. 1821 02:27:50,160 --> 02:27:51,740 I'm not saying I'm supporting the project. 1822 02:27:52,320 --> 02:27:53,700 I would just like to hear about that, please. 1823 02:28:01,640 --> 02:28:02,560 Thank you, Commissioner Strickland. 1824 02:28:02,560 --> 02:28:04,040 I didn't know if we would have an opportunity to speak. 1825 02:28:04,160 --> 02:28:05,280 I'm glad we did. 1826 02:28:05,420 --> 02:28:07,720 I would like to address that concern along with several others. 1827 02:28:07,720 --> 02:28:15,000 Tim Sutton, issue TTO in, with Sutton Law and Consulting Group, here on behalf of the property owner, Scott Sheldon. 1828 02:28:16,220 --> 02:28:24,360 So, as Keanu mentioned, this is a 190-home subdivision plan for on 80 acres. 1829 02:28:24,780 --> 02:28:30,600 And I guess I'm a little perplexed on all of the comments on regarding density. 1830 02:28:32,360 --> 02:28:39,000 the neighboring winery subdivision contains 100 homes on 40 acres. 1831 02:28:39,400 --> 02:28:42,040 We're proposing 200 homes on 200 acres. 1832 02:28:42,740 --> 02:28:45,520 If we wanted to develop under the existing zoning right now, 1833 02:28:45,620 --> 02:28:49,540 we could build 163 of those homes without any approvals at all, 1834 02:28:49,560 --> 02:28:50,640 other than a development agreement. 1835 02:28:51,180 --> 02:28:53,000 Development agreement was mentioned previously. 1836 02:28:53,520 --> 02:28:57,480 If you notice in your backup, I believe it was Mr. Hunter, 1837 02:28:58,420 --> 02:29:02,720 Yeah, Mr. Hunter, I think who mentioned the need for it about money agreement, that's absolutely true. 1838 02:29:03,000 --> 02:29:09,660 We do need a development agreement, that's a condition of approval, should the board choose to approve this subdivision? 1839 02:29:11,820 --> 02:29:25,400 The you asked about the flood control as has been mentioned by several people flooding is a significant concern in this area, which is why the developer chose to put significant flooding prevention 1840 02:29:25,400 --> 02:29:33,640 in the form of retention basis, retention basins slash open space property there. 1841 02:29:35,160 --> 02:29:41,040 So under an I county code, the current requirement for this level of subdivision would 1842 02:29:41,040 --> 02:29:48,400 be 1.14 acres of open space, the developers putting in 20 acres, that's 25% of the 1843 02:29:48,400 --> 02:29:55,260 acreage, that's unprecedented, so there's quite a significant bit of real estate being committed 1844 02:29:55,260 --> 02:29:57,360 to address flooding concerns that have been raised. 1845 02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:10,540 As far as the other concern, traffic, as far as the traffic concerns that have been raised, yes, of course, if you have more people, that's going to create some traffic concerns. 1846 02:30:11,100 --> 02:30:16,980 However, bakes into our development and approval process is public works review, which addresses all those things. 1847 02:30:17,080 --> 02:30:27,360 There's impact fees that need to be paid in order to address those, whether it's widening the road, creating more ingress and egress, adding more layers of compaction onto the roads. 1848 02:30:27,360 --> 02:30:32,920 I mean, that's all baked into our process, along with the impact fees for roads that would 1849 02:30:32,920 --> 02:30:36,700 be required to be paid upon approval of the development agreement. 1850 02:30:38,280 --> 02:30:43,120 One of the things I wanted to note that came over from the RPC was that there were concerns 1851 02:30:43,120 --> 02:30:50,860 raised about only having one single story rather than multi-story housing homes being built. 1852 02:30:51,280 --> 02:30:56,460 That was something that the developer considered to at the RPC level and was made contingent 1853 02:30:56,460 --> 02:30:59,060 on the approval, just wanted to bring that forward. 1854 02:30:59,700 --> 02:31:02,840 Other than that, commissioners, people are making it sound 1855 02:31:02,840 --> 02:31:04,700 like we're building mountain falls right next to the winery. 1856 02:31:04,800 --> 02:31:05,320 That's not the case. 1857 02:31:05,460 --> 02:31:07,120 We're building the winery right next to the winery. 1858 02:31:08,180 --> 02:31:10,760 If you look at the map there, if you click on any of the lots 1859 02:31:10,760 --> 02:31:12,860 to the right, I think there's a couple along the road 1860 02:31:12,860 --> 02:31:15,420 that are half acre locks, but other than that, 1861 02:31:15,980 --> 02:31:18,100 they're smaller than the lots that we're 1862 02:31:18,100 --> 02:31:18,880 that are being proposed now. 1863 02:31:18,920 --> 02:31:20,280 There are VR8 lots. 1864 02:31:20,860 --> 02:31:25,780 The lot size is 8,500 square feet on average for those lots. 1865 02:31:25,780 --> 02:31:28,260 We're proposing 10,000 square foot lots of minimum. 1866 02:31:29,040 --> 02:31:31,320 So the representations that you've heard 1867 02:31:31,320 --> 02:31:33,940 that this is increasing density in terms of the area, 1868 02:31:34,000 --> 02:31:37,380 at least not to the east, where the winery subdivision exists, 1869 02:31:37,540 --> 02:31:38,760 it's simply not true. 1870 02:31:39,920 --> 02:31:42,780 So if there aren't any other questions, I'll say that. 1871 02:31:42,780 --> 02:31:43,960 If I may continue to share. 1872 02:31:44,560 --> 02:31:47,620 So we are doing a comparative to the vineyards. 1873 02:31:48,180 --> 02:31:51,600 The vineyards itself is the one that has the smaller lots. 1874 02:31:52,820 --> 02:31:55,320 And I believe you just stated, Mr. Sutton, 1875 02:31:55,320 --> 02:31:58,440 that you have the ability with the current zoning 1876 02:31:58,440 --> 02:32:04,000 to do 163 homes, and this would be 198 homes. 1877 02:32:04,320 --> 02:32:05,360 Did I get that right? 1878 02:32:06,460 --> 02:32:10,660 Okay, so that being correct, you're adding 35 homes, 1879 02:32:11,060 --> 02:32:14,860 but putting in flood control that you wouldn't have to do 1880 02:32:14,860 --> 02:32:15,940 if you just built the homes, 1881 02:32:16,100 --> 02:32:18,700 because you don't need, and the development agreement 1882 02:32:18,700 --> 02:32:21,220 could also talk about traffic. 1883 02:32:21,220 --> 02:32:29,120 So I don't know much, but I do know that having the flood control would be exquisite. 1884 02:32:29,480 --> 02:32:31,240 I'm very concerned about that area. 1885 02:32:31,580 --> 02:32:33,120 We all have been for a long time. 1886 02:32:34,640 --> 02:32:38,220 That's the only thing I don't know, Commissioner. 1887 02:32:39,700 --> 02:32:41,840 This is your district, Mr. Bain. 1888 02:32:42,660 --> 02:32:49,560 And that being your district, have you considered the differentiation between the current approved homes 1889 02:32:49,560 --> 02:32:53,880 If it go in versus this subdivision and not having any flight control. 1890 02:32:55,000 --> 02:32:57,220 And while we have this thing called leading the witness, 1891 02:32:57,440 --> 02:33:01,120 about that in my head, DA, you like that? 1892 02:33:01,780 --> 02:33:04,500 I, unfortunately, cannot object under these circumstances, 1893 02:33:05,860 --> 02:33:07,800 but anyone is an attorney, you're not an attorney, look that up. 1894 02:33:07,900 --> 02:33:08,940 I'm gonna get a kid and I'll let go. 1895 02:33:08,980 --> 02:33:09,540 Thank you, later. 1896 02:33:10,840 --> 02:33:11,960 I've considered everything. 1897 02:33:12,080 --> 02:33:16,880 I mean, the reality is, if you compare it to something that's more dense, 1898 02:33:16,880 --> 02:33:19,280 It's not dense, but the request is to change the zone 1899 02:33:19,280 --> 02:33:21,880 to allow more homes than, or they're now. 1900 02:33:22,960 --> 02:33:23,880 That's a fact. 1901 02:33:24,160 --> 02:33:25,340 I mean, we can debate it if you want, 1902 02:33:25,520 --> 02:33:28,740 but the debate has ended with a statement for me. 1903 02:33:28,820 --> 02:33:29,140 Perfect. 1904 02:33:29,480 --> 02:33:31,000 I have considered all of it. 1905 02:33:31,020 --> 02:33:31,900 The responsibility of the traffic. 1906 02:33:32,180 --> 02:33:33,640 It does not change things with the traffic. 1907 02:33:33,860 --> 02:33:34,720 It's going to increase traffic. 1908 02:33:34,880 --> 02:33:35,820 It's going to increase strain. 1909 02:33:36,420 --> 02:33:38,480 And again, I would say that if anyone in the state 1910 02:33:38,480 --> 02:33:40,540 of Nevada can fix that light that's 1911 02:33:40,540 --> 02:33:42,780 we've been asking to fix for two years now. 1912 02:33:43,100 --> 02:33:46,400 And maybe then we can bring this back up for a vote. 1913 02:33:46,400 --> 02:33:49,080 because if we can't even get a second added on to that light 1914 02:33:49,080 --> 02:33:52,720 and no one can figure it out and I've talked to all seven and dot people that apparently 1915 02:33:52,720 --> 02:33:56,140 are six and dot people the handle of this place 1916 02:33:56,140 --> 02:34:00,780 then I can't even think about adding this and if we can't figure out how to spend a million dollars 1917 02:34:00,780 --> 02:34:05,620 on road repair that sits there and rocks somewhere and the plan is to give it back. 1918 02:34:06,640 --> 02:34:09,560 I don't know how we can possibly do something like this here. 1919 02:34:09,800 --> 02:34:15,320 This makes no sense maybe if I can answer those I'd be amenable to looking to this further 1920 02:34:15,320 --> 02:34:19,140 as it now still in now. Thank you. I appreciate that. Thank you, Chair. 1921 02:34:19,480 --> 02:34:25,700 Thank you. Love having the conversation and seeing what the other commissioners feel and what they see. 1922 02:34:26,080 --> 02:34:30,100 And it's, it's, this is a rewarding job because of that. Thank you, sir. 1923 02:34:30,420 --> 02:34:32,540 Thank you. Now we're going to hear from commissioners before. 1924 02:34:33,960 --> 02:34:42,140 Well, thank you, Chair. Thank you, commissioners. I thought at one point Mr. Sutton jumped up and cut us all off. 1925 02:34:43,060 --> 02:34:48,840 appreciate the clarification and I'd like to give some clarification as well. 1926 02:34:49,220 --> 02:34:55,840 Commissioner Bane is correct originally from born and raised, educated in Massachusetts, 1927 02:34:55,840 --> 02:34:59,960 root 9 as in root 128 which 1928 02:35:00,000 --> 02:35:10,200 No longer exists, no, it's 95, those who are old, those who are old, horse and cattle routes, a different route, that actually is a different route. 1929 02:35:10,460 --> 02:35:12,340 That actually is a different route, no, it goes west. 1930 02:35:12,880 --> 02:35:16,900 Yes, route 9 goes west to the western part and leads into New York. 1931 02:35:17,760 --> 02:35:27,300 So, anyway, to clarify something else is that what I've said time and time again is when people have their own land. 1932 02:35:28,640 --> 02:35:32,580 And they comply with what they're wanting to do. 1933 02:35:32,880 --> 02:35:33,320 Who are we? 1934 02:35:33,460 --> 02:35:36,060 We are not the landslars to tell them no. 1935 02:35:36,420 --> 02:35:39,960 So we have to be able to compare apples to apples. 1936 02:35:40,800 --> 02:35:45,480 And this is an apple to an orange at this point of what's written in here 1937 02:35:45,480 --> 02:35:50,820 in the back up in on the agenda because they're asking us to change. 1938 02:35:51,400 --> 02:35:56,420 They're asking us to change something that they're already zone for. 1939 02:35:56,420 --> 02:36:03,500 And yes, they're able to move forward with 163 homes if this is rejected. 1940 02:36:04,060 --> 02:36:08,040 I get it, but we do have to keep things into perspective. 1941 02:36:10,280 --> 02:36:21,320 Mr. Sutton mentioned in Guassie Grats, layers and helping to correct any of what is that. 1942 02:36:21,320 --> 02:36:23,380 That's why we're going back and forth. 1943 02:36:23,380 --> 02:36:27,900 So is there a plan, because I didn't see it, you can help me here? 1944 02:36:29,240 --> 02:36:35,560 Is there a plan for additional ingress egress to this development, besides winery road? 1945 02:36:37,160 --> 02:36:42,660 First question, when do you plan on commencing if this is approved? 1946 02:36:45,330 --> 02:36:46,350 Thank you, Commissioner Borg. 1947 02:36:46,450 --> 02:36:51,570 Yes, that would be addressed during the tentative map stage, or the final map stage, by 1948 02:36:51,570 --> 02:36:52,130 public works. 1949 02:36:52,130 --> 02:36:58,930 they'd come in, I believe a traffic study has already been conducted on this parcel, and so 1950 02:36:58,930 --> 02:37:05,770 I think they found that, why don't we road plus a road and I apologize, Parsons Road would 1951 02:37:05,770 --> 02:37:10,690 be the one that would address the ingress and egress of the subdivision. 1952 02:37:12,760 --> 02:37:17,320 Where does Parsons Road exit on to? 1953 02:37:24,400 --> 02:37:25,960 Industrial Commissioner. 1954 02:37:27,220 --> 02:37:47,680 So we'll go through and as one of the commenters spoke and said that they have, it's not just one, but there's a few pits that are up there, so Parsons Road, so this will be a well-traveled area for not only commercial, but also residential traffic. 1955 02:37:48,180 --> 02:37:49,980 If this was improved, approved. 1956 02:37:51,220 --> 02:37:51,480 Yes?

Is that right? That's correct. Yes. So retention basin. I mean, the visual 1976 02:39:28,940 --> 02:39:34,940 that I got.

Was this already debated when it was a house 2609 03:23:31,380 --> 03:23:36,820 and burned down and there was some kind of problems there in the past? It was a pretty 2610 03:23:36,820 --> 03:23:42,340 sense and I do believe it was a house fire yes and then. So it's already been debated. It's already been 2611 03:23:42,340 --> 03:23:48,220 on fire. Garrett is down here we go again and this whoever he is coming in there. So this isn't as 2612 03:23:48,220 --> 03:23:53,380 someone who doesn't own the property now is saying they want the property let's say 2613 03:23:53,380 --> 03:23:57,680 have a time machine if so I like to get in and undo some of the things I've done 2614 03:23:57,680 --> 03:24:08,660 in my life this does not she does not own it there is a brother of the deceased that 2615 03:24:09,820 --> 03:24:15,700 everything would fall to that he is now the one who is willing to take responsibility 2616 03:24:15,700 --> 03:24:22,500 Well, he doesn't have a lead. He has a bigger stance than what he was I do for the project unless the probates open the judge makes that decision not us 2617 03:24:22,500 --> 03:24:29,620 Me not the DA. So that's just not relevant the problem here is that you have a pattern of abuse where people have been coming on the property 2618 03:24:29,620 --> 03:24:31,220 I went out there with 2619 03:24:32,560 --> 03:24:37,740 Tenaclons are and Sergeant Augustine same thing. Oh, we own the property. Oh, we own the property 2620 03:24:37,740 --> 03:24:43,760 And they've been saying I was out there five times at least talking to people or three to five times talking to others 2621 03:24:43,760 --> 03:24:46,680 the pattern of people coming in there, telling deputies, 2622 03:24:46,820 --> 03:24:48,140 we own the place, say, get out of here, 2623 03:24:48,300 --> 03:24:50,580 we own the place, and then here come RVs, 2624 03:24:50,660 --> 03:24:51,900 and then they're burning campfires, 2625 03:24:52,520 --> 03:24:54,900 and one time there are sheriff's deputies showing up 2626 03:24:54,900 --> 03:24:57,460 with, there's, I did not pull the guy forgot to do, 2627 03:24:57,560 --> 03:24:59,360 so I was gonna ask where you just, I didn't do this. 2628 03:24:59,420 --> 03:24:59,960 There was all, 2629 03:25:00,820 --> 03:25:29,020 I know there's nine one calls, there are quite a few nine one calls. I'm sure there's somebody on the phone who will speak to that, so I won't do that. But this is not a surprise situation. Everyone associate with this property and apparently most people associate with the claim ownership of it, I might as well claim ownership of it myself. And so everyone is aware. There's definitely not a notice. We don't have a due process problem here because seems that everyone in town knows what's going on with this property, including us. 2630 03:25:29,020 --> 03:25:34,340 So I have to just do this for the people who live on that street I already feel bad because you know 2631 03:25:34,340 --> 03:25:38,220 There's some flooding stuff going on and I always were pretty feel really bad about not being able to fix that 2632 03:25:38,220 --> 03:25:45,280 But maybe I would I wouldn't mind hearing from you know testimony and as far as public comment 2633 03:25:45,280 --> 03:25:52,880 If we can do that Mr. Chairman sometime soon. Thank you. We will definitely do that commissioner.

So when you're 2749 03:33:46,670 --> 03:33:51,530 giving these people, these leans, they still have one chance to appeal it before they lose 2750 03:33:51,530 --> 03:33:55,950 it all the way. And that way, you've not only done due process by all your proper notifications, 2751 03:33:56,350 --> 03:34:00,890 but you followed through by even giving them a second step to retain or regain their property back. 2752 03:34:01,070 --> 03:34:04,770 Just a suggestion. Thank you for that, Sam. Anybody on the phone, please? 2753 03:34:08,130 --> 03:34:11,290 Yes, Chair, the caller is unmuted.

She did have a phone conversation with the granddaughter, and I believe the granddaughter did send her a copy of that over and that's when Susan realized it, you know, it hasn't been recorded. 2795 03:37:05,290 --> 03:37:05,730 Okay. 2796 03:37:05,930 --> 03:37:22,390 But was it still unrecorded? That person is still at the owner now. That would be sitting somewhere, not being posted. So that's entirely possible. My question is, did someone admit to it not being recorded in time or was that something that we came to the conclusion of? 2797 03:37:22,390 --> 03:37:28,190 The granddaughter said that she did not know that it needed to be recorded before she passed away. 2798 03:37:29,430 --> 03:37:33,230 Okay, so the DA's not here, but he has said, and I don't know if it was on the record that you can look it up. 2799 03:37:33,350 --> 03:37:33,930 It's probably there. 2800 03:37:34,030 --> 03:37:34,870 I know in California it is. 2801 03:37:34,930 --> 03:37:35,670 I don't know about Nevada. 2802 03:37:35,970 --> 03:37:42,070 That was a really similar has to be recorded prior to death, obviously, because it's a special thing. 2803 03:37:43,030 --> 03:37:49,910 One of the points that I just want to make is in the event that this is a person that was taken to some kind of care. 2804 03:37:49,910 --> 03:37:54,310 there will likely be a big bill for that care. 2805 03:37:54,750 --> 03:38:00,250 And so anybody opening Crow Bay will likely not recover the price 2806 03:38:00,250 --> 03:38:05,550 in the cost of this and if they're asked to pay back all of the care fees, 2807 03:38:05,550 --> 03:38:06,810 which could be 200,000. 2808 03:38:06,890 --> 03:38:09,110 And my mother died after being a nursing over two years, 2809 03:38:09,170 --> 03:38:10,430 it was like three and some thousand dollars. 2810 03:38:11,450 --> 03:38:12,690 So that's how that works. 2811 03:38:13,090 --> 03:38:18,310 So I don't know that it might fears that no one will open Crow Bay for this. 2812 03:38:19,570 --> 03:38:26,010 As far as, you know, someone said that they looked and they have an obituary, and I don't doubt that. 2813 03:38:26,550 --> 03:38:32,270 I had a family member in Cook County, the Illinois, the same place that we thought was dead. 2814 03:38:32,370 --> 03:38:36,210 I called my uncle who was assistant chief police somewhere, and he couldn't figure it out. 2815 03:38:36,430 --> 03:38:37,270 I don't know how I couldn't figure it out. 2816 03:38:37,450 --> 03:38:41,370 But he didn't even know as assistant chief police in Illinois, the Chicago suburb. 2817 03:38:41,990 --> 03:38:44,470 There's no button you can press to find out if you were dead. 2818 03:38:44,470 --> 03:38:49,010 Cook County is notorious. I have gotten records from Cook County. It's not fun. It's notorious. 2819 03:38:49,870 --> 03:38:55,070 Lee hard to get records from. I was born there. So, um, so my concerns if we don't do anything. 2820 03:38:55,730 --> 03:38:59,370 It could never open pro of a no one could ever do anything. It would just continue in the state. 2821 03:38:59,510 --> 03:39:01,670 It's been sounding like for about two plus years. 2822 03:39:02,590 --> 03:39:06,410 I would really like to make a motion to give these people some relief. I feel very bad personally. 2823 03:39:06,670 --> 03:39:09,490 And, but I'll wait until they appropriate time. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 2824 03:39:09,550 --> 03:39:10,370 Mr. Chair. 2825 03:39:10,770 --> 03:39:11,610 Go ahead, sir. 2826 03:39:11,610 --> 03:39:40,070 Thank you, and so we had two folks calling through public comment, giving us dates of the deceased, and I have here a date of June 9th, 2026, a bituary, where Mr. Turner moved to Perupp Nevada and family returned to Chicago, Illinois. 2827 03:39:40,990 --> 03:39:47,610 it's one in the same person. So we have three different dates. June 9th, 2026. In the 2828 03:39:47,610 --> 03:39:54,030 backup, it clearly reads the July was the date. So they're off by one month. Okay. And we go 2829 03:39:54,030 --> 03:39:59,890 by the backup. We appreciate the neighbors calling in. But we're going by the ongoing by the backup. 2830 03:40:00,000 --> 03:40:28,980 And looking it up in the obituary where you said you can't push a button, commissioner. But I looked it up myself. June 9th, 2026. It's not that's not in the back of it. So second page it leads July. It reads that according to the owner was and Turner passed away last month. This was the date here is August 5th, 2026. 2831 03:40:28,980 --> 03:40:32,120 brings us to July and 2832 03:40:42,520 --> 03:40:46,640 this has not been recorded for the record, this has not been recorded 2833 03:40:46,640 --> 03:40:48,920 with the county recorder 2834 03:40:51,700 --> 03:40:54,980 as of today, according to the recorder. 2835 03:41:00,290 --> 03:41:08,110 So, Commissioner Jabor, are you seeking more time, are you, I mean, what would you think? 2836 03:41:08,510 --> 03:41:15,930 I'm giving it to Chair, I'm giving more information, more information, okay, to help support 2837 03:41:15,930 --> 03:41:27,930 What, what code enforcement has been doing, again, I'm not challenging or criticizing their diligent work and putting this information together. 2838 03:41:28,430 --> 03:41:31,110 It's very difficult when you don't have people on the property. 2839 03:41:31,650 --> 03:41:35,050 Question I have is, so this is a beta. 2840 03:41:35,470 --> 03:41:42,630 Bated property, properties, totally fenced, and then how are we going to prohibit and stop? 2841 03:41:43,570 --> 03:41:47,770 We'll call them vagrants, homeless, I'd like you to. 2842 03:41:47,930 --> 03:41:50,610 How are we going to stop them from coming on this proper? 2843 03:41:50,610 --> 03:41:52,210 So they're, and I've been inside the property. 2844 03:41:52,650 --> 03:41:54,030 There is a fence. 2845 03:41:54,310 --> 03:41:56,830 The problem is someone has kicked the fence in the front. 2846 03:41:57,230 --> 03:42:00,090 Now, when we evaded the building on West Street that was on fire, 2847 03:42:00,150 --> 03:42:03,730 what was really great about what they did was, 2848 03:42:03,870 --> 03:42:06,810 was that they did a really good job fencing. 2849 03:42:07,090 --> 03:42:09,730 So when we did that, a good job to you, 2850 03:42:09,730 --> 03:42:12,450 that's a great, of course, that's been kicked in since then, but no one's there. 2851 03:42:13,130 --> 03:42:17,290 The point I'm making is as long as we have, if we evaded, as long as we can secure it with 2852 03:42:17,290 --> 03:42:21,910 the same kind of fence, I don't know that we have anyone sophisticated enough to breach 2853 03:42:21,910 --> 03:42:25,270 that fence with whatever they've got. 2854 03:42:25,410 --> 03:42:29,110 So that's what I would, I mean, that's what I would like to do, and I'm happy to make a discussion 2855 03:42:29,110 --> 03:42:29,390 about it. 2856 03:42:29,910 --> 03:42:34,110 I don't think it would be that costly to remove what's there, at least from last week on 2857 03:42:34,110 --> 03:42:40,390 drove by a couple days ago, Sunday, and I drove by. And it just, it was looking much, it's just 2858 03:42:40,390 --> 03:42:45,390 trash there or something like just kind of in piles. So I don't, I don't think it's, it's not like one 2859 03:42:45,390 --> 03:42:49,810 of these things where it's been embedded into the ground or there's any kind of like waste, 2860 03:42:49,810 --> 03:42:56,490 issue, the RVs have been removed unless they're back. But I would like to do a motion to remove 2861 03:42:56,490 --> 03:43:02,450 the trash and then to secure the property with a fence. I don't know how this works. I know we have 2862 03:43:02,450 --> 03:43:08,290 incoming administrator, and I'm out of my element for this, but we do need to maybe notify 2863 03:43:08,290 --> 03:43:14,250 that this is likely to be as cheated to the state. I don't know why that works. 2864 03:43:14,530 --> 03:43:18,390 I don't really care. It's not my jurisdiction, but I would be pretty surprised if someone 2865 03:43:18,390 --> 03:43:22,570 stepped forward and took possession of this property. So I don't know if that's part of this 2866 03:43:22,570 --> 03:43:27,170 motion. Is this part of that motion? If it... No, we just... We just abated, and then we just keep an eye 2867 03:43:27,170 --> 03:43:32,170 on it. I think that's what we do. But that's my concern is it's going to sit. 2868 03:43:32,170 --> 03:43:39,070 However it is, that your motion, commissioner, if it is, I'm sorry, I don't know if I can do it. 2869 03:43:39,410 --> 03:43:44,290 There's a specific way to do a motion, but if I ask a question, please chair. 2870 03:43:45,070 --> 03:43:46,250 If I may, sorry. 2871 03:43:47,170 --> 03:43:49,630 So Susan has been in contact with the property owners. 2872 03:43:49,850 --> 03:43:53,630 They are, I'm sorry, the alleged property owners, the family. 2873 03:43:53,850 --> 03:43:56,610 And they are aware that they do need to remove this junk. 2874 03:43:56,610 --> 03:44:01,170 and they're willing to get this removed. 2875 03:44:01,710 --> 03:44:05,490 That's so I don't know if we want to give them 30 days 2876 03:44:05,490 --> 03:44:08,330 to abate it themselves and then we go in and abate 2877 03:44:08,330 --> 03:44:09,470 because they were just- 2878 03:44:09,470 --> 03:44:12,090 I know that we can move either the trespass 2879 03:44:12,090 --> 03:44:13,330 into someone else's land. 2880 03:44:13,350 --> 03:44:15,430 I don't know if you can get it out of there. 2881 03:44:15,590 --> 03:44:17,610 Give me all the ways of trespass with this land. 2882 03:44:17,790 --> 03:44:19,010 Is our DNA not there? 2883 03:44:21,480 --> 03:44:22,000 I'm here. 2884 03:44:22,480 --> 03:44:23,700 Now, what do you think, D.A.? 2885 03:44:26,000 --> 03:44:30,110 I'm not sure I've heard a specific question, 2886 03:44:30,110 --> 03:44:34,030 But what I'm hearing now is I think there's serious concerns about whether or not 2887 03:44:34,030 --> 03:44:38,530 it's actually constitutes a current of ownership. 2888 03:44:40,190 --> 03:44:42,750 Well, ownership, but it's a moral question of it. 2889 03:44:42,810 --> 03:44:46,910 Is it really truly a nuisance in his current condition? 2890 03:44:48,110 --> 03:44:55,610 If you declared a nuisance, then the process is, you have to serve notice for them to 2891 03:44:55,610 --> 03:44:59,970 clean it up and if they don't clean it up within 30 days, then the 2892 03:45:00,000 --> 03:45:08,920 County has the ability to then abate the nuisance and then wherever the costs incurred become a lien on the property. 2893 03:45:10,840 --> 03:45:17,900 I ask a question just because the code enforcement agents are going to have to deal with is that I'm just looking for how they handle it. 2894 03:45:18,020 --> 03:45:28,360 Since the owner does not exist, then how do they handle it if the people who have their property on someone else's land? How do you want them to handle that? 2895 03:45:28,360 --> 03:45:37,700 Well, the practical issue here is that the county would have a lean on the property, but if it's not really enforceable, because the estate has no money. 2896 03:45:38,320 --> 03:45:43,360 I don't think the county should expect that there are going to be recouping any of the costs that this being incurred. 2897 03:45:44,240 --> 03:45:46,240 I mean, we have to be honest about that. 2898 03:45:46,900 --> 03:45:50,740 The real question is what do we, so the owner doesn't exist. There's no owner. 2899 03:45:51,080 --> 03:45:53,960 Someone says, well, that's my pile of trash out there, and I like to move it. 2900 03:45:53,960 --> 03:45:59,240 Can we can code legally say yeah, go right. I had that land that you don't own and go ahead and collect that 2901 03:45:59,240 --> 03:46:02,480 We should not be given permission to do anything with that land. I know there's a clean-up 2902 03:46:02,480 --> 03:46:09,400 The nuisance and who can do the cleaning of the nuisance even on the done property if the county declares it's a nuisance 2903 03:46:09,400 --> 03:46:11,360 Then notice has to go out 2904 03:46:11,360 --> 03:46:19,120 If after three days they don't debate the nuisance then by law the county has the authority to go in and clean up the property and obey the nuisance 2905 03:46:23,040 --> 03:46:26,800 Do you want the code people to call their contacts and say get your stuff out here? 2906 03:46:26,800 --> 03:46:29,460 even though they're not the owners, or does that, I don't want to put you on. 2907 03:46:29,620 --> 03:46:31,160 It's not a question what I want. 2908 03:46:31,460 --> 03:46:33,820 It's the only choice you have if you need to declare a notice, 2909 03:46:33,880 --> 03:46:34,980 or you don't need to declare a notice. 2910 03:46:35,140 --> 03:46:35,420 I understand. 2911 03:46:35,740 --> 03:46:36,220 I can't. 2912 03:46:38,300 --> 03:46:42,220 And by the way, Commissioner Bane, seeing how you claim donor ship earlier, 2913 03:46:42,440 --> 03:46:43,700 or you'll have to accuse yourself. 2914 03:46:43,700 --> 03:46:44,740 And the owner. 2915 03:46:45,480 --> 03:46:48,900 So we're all owners of this property, as much as anyone else. 2916 03:46:49,800 --> 03:46:52,160 I would, I, for what it's worth. 2917 03:46:52,460 --> 03:46:52,880 I'm sorry. 2918 03:46:53,280 --> 03:46:53,840 I'll stand out. 2919 03:46:54,460 --> 03:47:00,900 I'm still at, I've got a text into Rayland Powers, and I'm looking at the tax records on 2920 03:47:00,900 --> 03:47:08,680 this property, and the quarterly payments are only $94, but the first installment is $585. 2921 03:47:08,980 --> 03:47:13,200 That tells me that these are back taxes haven't been paid, and Rayland's on vacation. 2922 03:47:13,880 --> 03:47:15,800 So I don't know what the status of the taxes are. 2923 03:47:15,900 --> 03:47:16,440 Can you tell me? 2924 03:47:16,440 --> 03:47:16,800 All right. 2925 03:47:17,140 --> 03:47:22,240 It looks unpaid to the point where, you know, this whole thing is a hot man. 2926 03:47:22,240 --> 03:47:24,240 That's not even relevant.

And we could we could we could do that 3012 03:52:40,580 --> 03:52:46,700 later. That's correct. Okay. Can't imagine. All right. Good work. Let's do 12 please. 3013 03:52:53,250 --> 03:52:59,010 Item 12 for possible action discussion and deliberation regarding clarification on the scope 3014 03:52:59,010 --> 03:53:05,430 in intent of the current county hiring freeze as it relates to personnel within the public safety 3015 03:53:05,430 --> 03:53:11,010 offices departments specifically the sheriff's office is requesting it to board determine 3016 03:53:11,010 --> 03:53:16,710 whether the hiring freeze is intended to apply to positions within the sheriff's office 3017 03:53:16,710 --> 03:53:22,570 from valetfire and emergency medical services or whether they are exempt from the hiring freeze. 3018 03:53:24,030 --> 03:53:25,290 Thank you for that. 3019 03:53:27,740 --> 03:53:29,300 I'm sure. Sheriff Joe McGill. 3020 03:53:29,300 --> 03:53:36,660 Um, so the reason we brought this up is because there keeps going back and forth as to do we have a freeze, 3021 03:53:36,700 --> 03:53:39,920 do we not have a freeze, do we have a freeze, do we not have a freeze, do we not have a freeze? 3022 03:53:39,920 --> 03:53:44,140 And it seems like every other week it goes a different way. 3023 03:53:45,180 --> 03:53:53,200 Um, the last we, uh, discussed something relative to this was replacing a terminated employee. 3024 03:53:54,080 --> 03:54:00,400 I understand that that is complicated in another way, however, 3025 03:54:02,480 --> 03:54:04,680 should this issue come up again. 3026 03:54:05,420 --> 03:54:08,060 We need to know whether we can rehire to fill our positions. 3027 03:54:08,940 --> 03:54:20,720 If we don't, we are going to be reducing our staff in effect by not allowing us to replace staff that may or may not leave for whatever reason. 3028 03:54:22,860 --> 03:54:25,900 So that's where I am. 3029 03:54:26,440 --> 03:54:28,880 Okay, can I offer some input on this please? 3030 03:54:29,660 --> 03:54:35,040 Okay, when the budget was adopted, all vacant positions, 3031 03:54:35,580 --> 03:54:38,140 if they become vacant or vacant at that time, 3032 03:54:38,240 --> 03:54:41,180 in the general fund were frozen. 3033 03:54:42,020 --> 03:54:45,020 That does not mean a department cannot come back to the board 3034 03:54:45,720 --> 03:54:48,220 and request that position to be filled. 3035 03:54:48,220 --> 03:54:56,600 It is just an extra step, but a lot of times when people do get terminated, resigned, whatever 3036 03:54:56,600 --> 03:54:59,960 the case may be, there's a curls that have to be paid up. 3037 03:55:00,000 --> 03:55:10,220 Now with that position, like vacation time, sick time, and what we need to be cognizant of is if, with that added 3038 03:55:10,220 --> 03:55:16,520 cost of the accrual with that position leaving, sometimes if we leave it vacant for 90 days, let's 3039 03:55:16,520 --> 03:55:23,080 say, we can recoup that to where we're now back to what was actually budgeted for that position 3040 03:55:23,080 --> 03:55:28,880 for that year. So that's kind of what that extra step is in there for. As far as the fire department 3041 03:55:28,880 --> 03:55:34,460 goes this does not affect the fire department at this time because they are not part of the 3042 03:55:34,460 --> 03:55:36,200 night count in general fund. 3043 03:55:38,820 --> 03:55:38,920 Okay. 3044 03:55:38,920 --> 03:55:39,860 You're free. 3045 03:55:40,780 --> 03:55:41,160 You're free. 3046 03:55:41,700 --> 03:55:48,580 He's like, well, uh, okay, so let's still, does that make sense? 3047 03:55:49,280 --> 03:55:56,620 What I'm hearing is that when the position becomes vacant, you put in the vacancy form so 3048 03:55:56,620 --> 03:56:04,500 that we can look at as a board and make sure that we have the accrual, there's been an accrual 3049 03:56:05,260 --> 03:56:07,760 so that we keep our keep within our budget. 3050 03:56:07,960 --> 03:56:16,460 My understanding of the accrual is that that is accounted for in a fund of 3051 03:56:19,560 --> 03:56:20,800 accrual fund. 3052 03:56:21,540 --> 03:56:22,000 That's a good news. 3053 03:56:22,000 --> 03:56:27,100 If that's not correct in a perfect world, yes, that's the way it should work, but that 3054 03:56:27,100 --> 03:56:34,200 is not been done. This is not going to happen until now. That is something we are starting 3055 03:56:34,200 --> 03:56:39,740 to accrue for, but at this point we don't have much build up in there to keep up with the 3056 03:56:39,740 --> 03:56:46,320 pace. So, eventually, yes, you're right. Hopefully, we won't have to take that in a consideration 3057 03:56:46,320 --> 03:56:52,320 anymore. But at this point, we don't have those accruals and we had some pretty big retirements 3058 03:56:52,320 --> 03:56:57,760 that we just went through, so it's depleted a little bit we had. 3059 03:56:59,700 --> 03:57:01,960 Okay, how about we, well 3060 03:57:04,140 --> 03:57:05,920 we have to do public to them. 3061 03:57:06,640 --> 03:57:11,000 So, Commissioner Giboror or BANG, do you have anything to for we go to public comment? 3062 03:57:11,860 --> 03:57:12,720 Public comment please? 3063 03:57:13,320 --> 03:57:16,320 Okay, we're going to hang tight Joe, we're going to open up public comment. 3064 03:57:17,660 --> 03:57:19,060 Come on down Mr. Pippman. 3065 03:57:22,230 --> 03:57:30,830 Steven Pippman, P-I-T-M-A-N, as you're well aware, the primary function of a government is the safety of its citizens. 3066 03:57:32,570 --> 03:57:33,290 Thank you. 3067 03:57:33,390 --> 03:57:34,070 Thank you. 3068 03:57:34,290 --> 03:57:35,250 Come on down upon, please. 3069 03:57:39,700 --> 03:57:42,140 Angelina Jackson, J.

I've said before, I don't love 3184 04:07:19,970 --> 04:07:23,010 our government because I think it's very unfunctional. 3185 04:07:25,230 --> 04:07:27,910 But I'm thinking about, we've got people 3186 04:07:27,910 --> 04:07:32,830 maybe going to be moving here, who knows, they keep looking at what's going on here, I sure 3187 04:07:32,830 --> 04:07:41,110 and come again. But we're going to have all these houses being built and supposedly all the 3188 04:07:41,110 --> 04:07:44,570 schools are going to get filled and we'll have enough room for all of them. We're going to have 3189 04:07:44,570 --> 04:07:50,870 all these people here. We need the third apartment and we need the sheriff's department. We can't 3190 04:07:50,870 --> 04:07:56,870 survive on what we have now. He's already running ragged from one end of the county to the other 3191 04:07:56,870 --> 04:07:59,430 and I'm sure that Mr. Lewis is also. 3192 04:08:00,150 --> 04:08:01,610 So how do we solve that? 3193 04:08:02,070 --> 04:08:03,950 And whatever you think you're going to do, 3194 04:08:04,150 --> 04:08:05,610 where's the money come from? 3195 04:08:06,510 --> 04:08:08,530 I know, we're going to get another grant. 3196 04:08:09,650 --> 04:08:13,130 So sick of hearing that word, we're not going to get another grant. 3197 04:08:13,290 --> 04:08:15,570 And even if you did, it's still not going to pay for anything. 3198 04:08:16,250 --> 04:08:18,370 So why don't we just try to figure out, 3199 04:08:18,550 --> 04:08:21,530 maybe we only need three commissioners instead of five? 3200 04:08:21,830 --> 04:08:25,490 I don't know if that's legal, but it's a good idea. 3201 04:08:25,490 --> 04:08:27,490 we could cut some expenses there. 3202 04:08:28,250 --> 04:08:29,090 We think. Yeah. 3203 04:08:30,250 --> 04:08:33,490 So, and there's probably a lot of other departments in this government. 3204 04:08:34,510 --> 04:08:37,790 Since we know we have probably too many, 3205 04:08:38,390 --> 04:08:40,050 and maybe a lot of them that are overpaid. 3206 04:08:40,190 --> 04:08:41,050 And don't get me wrong. 3207 04:08:41,110 --> 04:08:43,370 People need to income today because of our economy. 3208 04:08:43,370 --> 04:08:44,630 And I'm not knocking that. 3209 04:08:45,190 --> 04:08:47,210 But we have to make cuts. 3210 04:08:47,790 --> 04:08:48,570 Zina knows that. 3211 04:08:49,390 --> 04:08:52,310 You know, we have people in this town that understand that. 3212 04:08:52,490 --> 04:08:54,530 But for some reason, it doesn't move. 3213 04:08:54,530 --> 04:09:01,190 Thank you. Thank you. Okay, Sam, do you have anybody on the phone please? No chair. Come on up, 3214 04:09:06,460 --> 04:09:06,640 Dwight. 3215 04:09:06,800 --> 04:09:11,840 I'll stop Dwight, Lily, L-I-L-L-Y. Well, I think we've just went through all the budgets. 3216 04:09:13,580 --> 04:09:22,640 The county's broke. We need more police officers, so it seems to me where we find the money for the police officers is we lay off people and other departments. 3217 04:09:22,640 --> 04:09:25,900 and then you have the money to hire a police officer. 3218 04:09:26,540 --> 04:09:28,300 This is a commissioner's choice here. 3219 04:09:28,800 --> 04:09:30,780 You guys spent the money on salaries. 3220 04:09:31,620 --> 04:09:33,400 I looked at transparent Nevada. 3221 04:09:34,180 --> 04:09:37,440 25 people have taken $2,300,000 a year. 3222 04:09:38,000 --> 04:09:40,960 We lay some people off enough to what do we need? 3223 04:09:41,160 --> 04:09:42,020 6, 10. 3224 04:09:42,220 --> 04:09:43,960 I don't know if you'll set up any law scrutiny. 3225 04:09:44,640 --> 04:09:47,600 Then you divide that by how many you need laid off. 3226 04:09:47,780 --> 04:09:49,160 And then you have your police officer. 3227 04:09:49,540 --> 04:09:50,760 So it comes down to commission. 3228 04:09:50,760 --> 04:09:55,060 is public safety more important, is a more important 3229 04:09:55,060 --> 04:09:57,560 to have a police officer or a firefighter 3230 04:09:57,560 --> 04:09:59,860 out doing actually saving lives. 3231 04:10:00,000 --> 04:10:10,580 Check the people, or is it more important having another person being paid on the payroll? If it's police officer, then you lay somebody else off and pay the people and then the problem solved. 3232 04:10:11,400 --> 04:10:18,180 But that's the decision you guys have to make. But to let us out of budget again, let's find money out of this account. 3233 04:10:18,480 --> 04:10:27,040 You'll be right back where you were this year, next June, wondering why we are 15 million dollars in the whole. 3234 04:10:27,800 --> 04:10:33,540 John brought it up before you guys people say you want us to spend men money. I'm telling you not to spend money 3235 04:10:33,540 --> 04:10:38,280 I'm telling you read a portion of the money to take care of public safety 3236 04:10:38,840 --> 04:10:39,320 So 3237 04:10:39,320 --> 04:10:46,400 this department at eight people lay to a loft that you can hire an officer. This is not copy. It's not rocket science 3238 04:10:46,400 --> 04:10:50,080 You're just are you willing to do it. I don't know. We'll see 3239 04:10:53,060 --> 04:10:54,700 Thank you to what it's always very 3240 04:10:56,140 --> 04:10:56,620 easy 3241 04:10:57,420 --> 04:10:58,940 Come on down sir 3242 04:11:04,220 --> 04:11:14,580 Darrell Wade, WAD, being a former EMS member, having worked with forces of many walks, police, etc. 3243 04:11:15,580 --> 04:11:20,160 I am in this for Joe. I am in this for the Department. We need more officers. 3244 04:11:20,880 --> 04:11:28,820 When you're laying at bed at night and there's a house burning next to you, you're going to wonder if you have enough officers or police officers to handle that situation. 3245 04:11:28,820 --> 04:11:33,600 Now, I know there's a lot of money issues, but we can be creative. 3246 04:11:34,500 --> 04:11:41,280 We need to put our heads together, stop laying blame on everybody else, get down, sit down, 3247 04:11:41,280 --> 04:11:42,800 and figure it out. 3248 04:11:43,140 --> 04:11:44,120 That's the bottom line. 3249 04:11:44,600 --> 04:11:46,580 We need more EMS. 3250 04:11:47,120 --> 04:11:52,260 We've got an aging fleet, we need to get the fleets up, we need to get our proper equipment 3251 04:11:52,260 --> 04:11:57,220 going for today's standards, it's just a matter of creative financing. 3252 04:11:57,220 --> 04:12:02,960 let's get it together and do it.

If I was in charge, I would sit down with 3255 04:12:13,620 --> 04:12:19,660 everybody we have contracts with and renegotiate contracts because they can't, 3256 04:12:20,100 --> 04:12:26,240 the unions cannot force us to bankrupt ourselves. So they're going to have to work with us 3257 04:12:26,240 --> 04:12:32,700 to cut back and make new contracts and that way for them to expire because we could just tell 3258 04:12:32,700 --> 04:12:35,560 we you know your services is no longer needed. 3259 04:12:38,750 --> 04:12:40,670 Thank you for that. Come on down, Tim. 3260 04:12:43,730 --> 04:12:50,250 Good afternoon, Tammy. Good afternoon, PIT and I N. So I know Ms. Teshken confirmed that there is 3261 04:12:50,250 --> 04:12:59,330 a fund that was made years ago to put money aside every year to a crew for when people 3262 04:12:59,330 --> 04:13:06,910 leave for separation, vacation, petio, etc. It has not been funded for the last, I don't 3263 04:13:06,910 --> 04:13:10,730 have any years because nobody's putting money in it and I'm probably wouldn't doubt if 3264 04:13:10,730 --> 04:13:16,450 some's coming out of it and it's gone to nothing but there was a fund and the name of it 3265 04:13:16,450 --> 04:13:24,990 escape me but I have it and so yes so if the funds still exists y'all have to start realizing 3266 04:13:24,990 --> 04:13:30,710 that you have to put that money in every year or you're going to bankrupt us every year there's 3267 04:13:30,710 --> 04:13:37,610 no going getting away from it and arm when we tell our departments you have X number of dollars 3268 04:13:37,610 --> 04:13:43,590 to spend and said saying oh this is my wish list I want this much money got into it the other way 3269 04:13:43,590 --> 04:13:50,670 around. This is our fixed costs. This is how much money is coming in from property tax. 3270 04:13:50,830 --> 04:13:55,330 This is how much we know what's going to come in from sales tax. Say, okay, I heard 3271 04:13:55,330 --> 04:14:00,090 our fixed costs. This is how much this department gets. This is department gets this department 3272 04:14:00,090 --> 04:14:05,550 gets and one of the fixed costs has to be money going in that account. You can't avoid 3273 04:14:05,550 --> 04:14:08,170 it or you may as well just close up shop. 3274 04:14:09,710 --> 04:14:11,950 Thanks Sam, do we have anybody on the phone please? No chair. 3275 04:14:11,950 --> 04:14:13,930 All right, we're gonna close public comment. 3276 04:14:15,980 --> 04:14:16,600 Go ahead, Joe. 3277 04:14:18,680 --> 04:14:21,940 I did not. I know that we're broke. 3278 04:14:22,140 --> 04:14:31,840 I know this county is poor. I know that this county is not that this this under funding has been 3279 04:14:31,840 --> 04:14:40,100 building and building and building for many, many years. But our staffing has not been building 3280 04:14:40,100 --> 04:14:46,220 the population has been. I know I stand up here and say this to you all the time, but we're 3281 04:14:46,220 --> 04:14:54,660 at the same staffing level that we were at 10 to 20 years ago. And we cannot continue to operate 3282 04:14:55,200 --> 04:14:59,960 at that level. Right now, I realize we don't have any... 3283 04:15:00,000 --> 04:15:02,580 Open positions. Okay, because they were all taken away. 3284 04:15:05,390 --> 04:15:27,850 That's another issue that needs to be addressed before two terrible long, but can't be addressed today. I just need to know that if I have a person resign or if I terminate a person that I can replace that person. That's all. That's all I'm asking right now. It's a pretty small ask. 3285 04:15:27,850 --> 04:15:34,730 I just, I mean, I got an application sent to me from HR this morning on my email for a lateral 3286 04:15:34,730 --> 04:15:37,450 transfer from Metro Police. 3287 04:15:38,030 --> 04:15:40,170 I guess I want to come out here and work. 3288 04:15:41,210 --> 04:15:41,710 He's certified. 3289 04:15:42,530 --> 04:15:48,410 It would only take a few weeks to train him in and away we do things and we could get him 3290 04:15:48,410 --> 04:15:49,270 up and run it. 3291 04:15:49,550 --> 04:15:51,830 We just need to know that we can hire him or not. 3292 04:15:55,740 --> 04:15:56,740 That's all I'm asking right now. 3293 04:15:56,740 --> 04:16:02,160 And it's my understanding that if there's a position that Joe or Scott or whoever needs to fill, 3294 04:16:02,600 --> 04:16:06,520 they bring an item forward, and this boardboats on that position, is that correct? 3295 04:16:06,780 --> 04:16:08,040 With a justification. 3296 04:16:08,220 --> 04:16:09,100 Just a occasion. 3297 04:16:09,140 --> 04:16:14,800 And I'm going to correct one statement that was just made that we're at the same staffing level as 20 years ago. 3298 04:16:15,380 --> 04:16:21,760 In 2022, I believe we had a nice contract, which added 19 positions. 3299 04:16:22,260 --> 04:16:24,100 Those positions have not went away. 3300 04:16:24,340 --> 04:16:24,960 But I did. 3301 04:16:24,960 --> 04:16:27,560 That's far less than 20 years ago, right? 3302 04:16:28,180 --> 04:16:29,620 I completely get it. 3303 04:16:29,940 --> 04:16:33,500 And the bottom line is each of our property taxes has a cap, 3304 04:16:33,560 --> 04:16:36,360 if it's an owner occupied, I believe, 3%, right? 3305 04:16:36,940 --> 04:16:40,540 So each year, each year, our property tax 3306 04:16:40,540 --> 04:16:43,680 goes up three more percent, which goes into the coffers, 3307 04:16:44,380 --> 04:16:46,580 tell me how much inflation has been. 3308 04:16:47,480 --> 04:16:52,560 This is not the whole excuse, but we all damn well know 3309 04:16:52,560 --> 04:16:54,440 when we go fill up our freaking cars, 3310 04:16:55,000 --> 04:16:58,240 it does not cost today, what it did five years ago. 3311 04:16:59,620 --> 04:17:01,700 And bread, eggs, anything else. 3312 04:17:02,300 --> 04:17:03,880 So that's also a problem. 3313 04:17:04,880 --> 04:17:06,960 And nobody wants to raise taxes. 3314 04:17:07,860 --> 04:17:10,460 And everybody wants to cut expenditures 3315 04:17:10,460 --> 04:17:13,460 which we're gonna get to your items here very soon 3316 04:17:13,460 --> 04:17:15,700 and you're going to let people know 3317 04:17:15,700 --> 04:17:18,700 what leaps and bounds have been made 3318 04:17:18,700 --> 04:17:20,440 just in the last year to half. 3319 04:17:20,440 --> 04:17:23,900 So it is a big problem to not raise taxes, 3320 04:17:24,700 --> 04:17:30,040 understanding that inflation is outpacing our property tax payments. 3321 04:17:31,000 --> 04:17:32,060 I don't like paying taxes. 3322 04:17:32,900 --> 04:17:35,140 I sure is heck, I'm not going to offer to pay more. 3323 04:17:36,560 --> 04:17:37,880 Where it is. 3324 04:17:39,080 --> 04:17:40,700 I understand your problem though, I do. 3325 04:17:40,940 --> 04:17:42,440 I believe me, I'm not against it. 3326 04:17:43,220 --> 04:17:48,360 But the deficit that we had when Zena came on, 3327 04:17:48,360 --> 04:17:54,940 year you know whenever it was we were so freaking far upside down it was pathetic and 3328 04:17:54,940 --> 04:18:00,920 they have made amazing strides to get us back your department was terribly upside down 3329 04:18:00,920 --> 04:18:08,360 the jail which we'll get but I mean we'll get it all taken care of it's just money doesn't fall 3330 04:18:08,360 --> 04:18:14,720 for the sky so we got a cut where we can and uh spend wisely. 3331 04:18:15,660 --> 04:18:16,960 Mr. Chairman, may I have very quickly. 3332 04:18:17,000 --> 04:18:17,480 Go ahead. 3333 04:18:17,640 --> 04:18:18,400 I'm going to make it quick. 3334 04:18:18,680 --> 04:18:19,280 Thank you. 3335 04:18:19,600 --> 04:18:21,500 I guess I'm just, if we have no open positions. 3336 04:18:21,800 --> 04:18:24,880 I guess I just don't, I understand it to another step. 3337 04:18:25,160 --> 04:18:28,120 But if, if that's what everyone wants is to go for the board and ask for the justification, 3338 04:18:28,880 --> 04:18:30,340 what is the problem with that I guess?

What do you mean? 3473 04:28:06,510 --> 04:28:07,490 Enter on a threat or a threat? 3474 04:28:08,270 --> 04:28:12,590 So, can you explain because you were a captain for a long time? I think you still are legally. 3475 04:28:13,770 --> 04:28:18,230 What is the difference? If you don't have anything open right now, it's being held up. 3476 04:28:18,250 --> 04:28:23,550 I thought there was. What is the difference effectively between just making the sheriff's office just 3477 04:28:23,550 --> 04:28:26,750 for a lot of this wacky farm that we all look, because I'm going to, I'm going to go for 3478 04:28:26,750 --> 04:28:29,950 every single share of position that is being asked for. 3479 04:28:30,110 --> 04:28:32,030 I mean, everyone knows this in town probably. 3480 04:28:32,550 --> 04:28:34,590 What is the difference between that and let's say I'll win. 3481 04:28:35,170 --> 04:28:37,930 But what is the difference you're just making that firm be filled out 3482 04:28:37,930 --> 04:28:39,930 and unfreezing all the depth? 3483 04:28:40,070 --> 04:28:40,850 Is there a difference? 3484 04:28:42,050 --> 04:28:43,610 So yeah, we're talking two different things. 3485 04:28:44,230 --> 04:28:45,990 The form gets filled out for every department. 3486 04:28:46,650 --> 04:28:50,070 We, sorry, we have not had a form come through or position 3487 04:28:50,070 --> 04:28:52,390 come through, since me taking over HR, 3488 04:28:52,910 --> 04:28:55,890 but prior to me taking over HR, when I was at the sheriff's office, 3489 04:28:55,890 --> 04:29:00,590 We would submit the form and go through the entire process and it never came before the B. O. C. 3490 04:29:01,630 --> 04:29:07,790 And that's been since the hiring freeze, which is not really, I think we're talking to them for things 3491 04:29:07,790 --> 04:29:13,250 and people are talking about adding more positions and just filling positions that have become vacated during this year. 3492 04:29:13,570 --> 04:29:14,590 Basically, share this on this. 3493 04:29:14,810 --> 04:29:18,950 It doesn't have to be for us. Where does it go? It just goes, we don't know where to went. 3494 04:29:19,170 --> 04:29:19,890 It just gets approved. 3495 04:29:20,650 --> 04:29:24,970 It used to be administrative decision by the county manager. 3496 04:29:25,550 --> 04:29:34,810 Yes, so it goes through HR, writes their numbers and finance says we have enough money, it goes to the county manager, county manager reviews all of that, it gets approved, it can be failed. 3497 04:29:35,690 --> 04:29:39,750 We have a county manager, do you have a problem with going back to that? 3498 04:29:39,990 --> 04:29:41,110 You wanted to go before us. 3499 04:29:41,230 --> 04:29:41,770 Is that correct? 3500 04:29:42,590 --> 04:29:44,850 Well, do we need to know how to pay for it, too? 3501 04:29:46,190 --> 04:29:53,090 We need the cost and the end part of the issue has been and that's part of what the next item is that we'll get to. 3502 04:29:53,090 --> 04:29:59,570 is the justification forms of gotten very lacks, not just with share of the department. 3503 04:30:00,000 --> 04:30:07,460 But all departments. So we're trying to get things back in line. So you guys know what you're making decisions on. 3504 04:30:07,680 --> 04:30:23,940 And you guys are up to date and real time, what budget, Terry issues there are. It's not to prevent hiring or filling vacant positions in the sheriff's permit. All it is is trying to make sure we know what we're doing. 3505 04:30:23,940 --> 04:30:34,360 If we have an employee that leads, that we have to pay out $200,000 in accruals, we need to try to realize that back somehow. 3506 04:30:35,140 --> 04:30:39,500 And that's all it is, is to give us a time to calculate that out. 3507 04:30:42,250 --> 04:30:44,350 Okay, can we try this method? 3508 04:30:45,030 --> 04:30:48,150 Was the sheriff's office okay with us trying this method? 3509 04:30:48,790 --> 04:30:50,630 And then, because right now there's nothing open, is that correct? 3510 04:30:50,710 --> 04:30:53,070 Is there anything open that we want to fill with the sheriff's office? 3511 04:30:54,550 --> 04:30:57,650 There is currently nothing open right now, that is correct. 3512 04:30:58,150 --> 04:31:00,670 And to address something that County manager mentioned. 3513 04:31:01,330 --> 04:31:04,370 Yeah, I missed a position justification for them recently. 3514 04:31:04,970 --> 04:31:05,750 Yeah, I did. 3515 04:31:06,090 --> 04:31:10,190 As soon as it was brought to my attention, I think it was sent through that same day. 3516 04:31:12,530 --> 04:31:13,990 But I'm not trying to be you out, man. 3517 04:31:13,990 --> 04:31:14,510 I really am not. 3518 04:31:14,750 --> 04:31:16,970 I just want, because everyone seems really upset about this. 3519 04:31:17,110 --> 04:31:21,210 As I'm going to give you, I just, if everyone really wants this form and really wants to have this discussion, 3520 04:31:21,210 --> 04:31:25,010 I'm going to vote yes and all your guys and he's probably going to vote yes and all your guys 3521 04:31:25,010 --> 04:31:29,050 So maybe just do it their way so that we don't have this fight it seems to be a non-stop 3522 04:31:29,050 --> 04:31:35,550 I'm doing it their way because I know that's that's their way like I said I miss how come it's their way, it's but policy 3523 04:31:36,390 --> 04:31:40,330 Right it's policy that's all right.

There's definitely dust and contaminants in there since the water is out 3642 04:39:33,040 --> 04:39:40,340 That's went airborne. So a lot of the breathing things that we've been experiencing over the last year is could be an associated with this 3643 04:39:40,840 --> 04:39:46,620 Project that they're doing to kind of dismantle our ash meadows. They started with mud reservoir knocked that down 3644 04:39:47,220 --> 04:39:53,340 rerouted Peterson and cut it off through the Fuentesis property and then this is our old reservoir here 3645 04:39:53,340 --> 04:39:58,160 This what it used to look like how beautiful it was and then they're purposely draining it is the thing and this 3646 04:40:00,000 --> 04:40:05,900 Audlife, and the fish. And then, as they dump it each time over and over, it just floods out into the desert, and 3647 04:40:05,900 --> 04:40:11,740 you're left seeing the dead fish on the ground, which will be here in a little bit. So, we've documented 3648 04:40:11,740 --> 04:40:18,200 all of this. We also have biologists. We have a full scientific truck that came out, they did air sniffer. They did 3649 04:40:18,200 --> 04:40:27,820 A soil samples, they did a radiation testing with the Giger counter, but the main thing associated 3650 04:40:27,820 --> 04:40:34,260 with this is the water's vested in the people under NRS 533, and it says in there that no 3651 04:40:34,260 --> 04:40:41,020 NCA or government should have any ownership of that water, ever. That's the law. The thing that's 3652 04:40:41,020 --> 04:40:46,420 important for staff today to consider is the violations that were made in the way this project 3653 04:40:46,420 --> 04:40:52,120 been submitted so far. It was only a presentation permission to do a presentation and now we're 3654 04:40:52,120 --> 04:40:58,660 looking at violation 241021, which is public scoping. The public scoping happened on June 3655 04:40:58,660 --> 04:41:07,060 11 and this was passed by the town board March 26. So they passed it to only do the presentation 3656 04:41:07,060 --> 04:41:13,160 but then move forward to ask the Board of County Commissioners to sign to approve the concept and 3657 04:41:13,160 --> 04:41:22,580 Proposal for it on May 5th, so then Jibor back that out on May 19th and said no, we're not going to move forward with this letter. 3658 04:41:22,960 --> 04:41:30,060 So they wanted to come to you and ask for a letter to basically have an excuse to come after our properties and move forward without the presentation. 3659 04:41:30,640 --> 04:41:35,700 I don't know why they're here to even talk against us because we haven't even given them permission yet to do the presentation. 3660 04:41:35,700 --> 04:41:40,500 and the public's coping had six people against it and only three for it. 3661 04:41:40,720 --> 04:41:45,060 So I think that the people have already spoken at that point and said that they do not want 3662 04:41:45,060 --> 04:41:46,700 the national conservation area. 3663 04:41:47,280 --> 04:41:49,160 We haven't notified any of those homeowners. 3664 04:41:49,640 --> 04:41:55,720 And it's a very risky situation to put them all at risk with eminent domain or possible 3665 04:41:55,720 --> 04:41:56,600 adverse possession. 3666 04:41:56,660 --> 04:42:02,020 Our job is county officials is to protect adverse couldn't possession claims for our people. 3667 04:42:02,020 --> 04:42:09,630 So 241-0 and 241-0-3-6 is what this board would be violating if we did not 3668 04:42:10,140 --> 04:42:19,960 Consider just avoiding it because 241 actually says it's avoided already by I'm doing the scoping backwards. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you 3669 04:42:19,960 --> 04:42:20,520 Okay 3670 04:42:23,400 --> 04:42:25,240 Now back to where we were 3671 04:42:25,800 --> 04:42:27,200 13 please 3672 04:42:30,540 --> 04:42:31,220 Hey 3673 04:42:31,220 --> 04:42:37,920 Hey, Paul, can you email me that video please so I can watch the whole thing? 3674 04:42:37,940 --> 04:42:38,660 Go ahead. 3675 04:42:39,040 --> 04:42:40,020 Just in 3676 04:42:45,720 --> 04:42:46,580 the last, okay. 3677 04:42:48,330 --> 04:42:49,110 Thank you. 3678 04:42:49,330 --> 04:42:49,890 13, please. 3679 04:42:50,770 --> 04:42:57,230 Item 13 for possible action, discussion in deliberation to adopt a men of the adopt or reject 3680 04:42:57,230 --> 04:43:04,870 Nikani resolution number 2026-16 resolution adopting the position evaluation policy. 3681 04:43:06,450 --> 04:43:09,170 Okay, thank you for that.

Go ahead, manager. 3917 04:59:29,360 --> 04:59:29,840 Excuse me. 3918 04:59:30,960 --> 04:59:31,720 So, 3919 04:59:34,280 --> 04:59:37,900 what we've discovered since we had the fleet driver retire. 3920 04:59:38,700 --> 04:59:41,700 He was funded entirely out of buildings and grounds. 3921 04:59:42,320 --> 04:59:44,700 It was a service to many different departments. 3922 04:59:46,840 --> 04:59:52,880 One of the big issues I was noticed is there is sometimes sensitive documents 3923 04:59:52,880 --> 04:59:58,380 documents that need to be brought back and forth for the clerk's office and then for the justice. 3924 05:00:00,000 --> 05:00:24,160 There is other documents that, you know, other departments you lies. But as far as the benefits, like I asked the same question, because actually Commissioner Conegasme, because when I had gotten the estimate from HR, it was just a whole number of 25,123. 3925 05:00:24,160 --> 05:00:29,980 But we do still have to pay, sold security, we have to pay workers' comp, we have to pay. 3926 05:00:30,580 --> 05:00:36,480 Those types of costs that are mandated, and that's what that $3,314 is. 3927 05:00:37,160 --> 05:00:47,000 So the salary is $20.99, 21, 808, and 61 cents, and then you add those other costs. 3928 05:00:47,020 --> 05:00:50,140 That's where we come up with the $25.23. 3929 05:00:50,140 --> 05:00:58,680 And what I am proposing is that this get borne by the departments that utilize this service. 3930 05:00:59,940 --> 05:01:06,240 So it isn't just a direct cost to one single department, like it was, with buildings and grounds. 3931 05:01:06,940 --> 05:01:09,360 We were trying to help their budget. 3932 05:01:11,600 --> 05:01:17,520 The other part of it is, we did use to have the school district that was involved in it. 3933 05:01:17,520 --> 05:01:23,460 is no longer going to be the case. Well, we're proposing is a two-day, a week fleet service, 3934 05:01:24,040 --> 05:01:33,060 Tuesdays and Thursdays. They are going to use a fleet vehicle out of our pool to check out for 3935 05:01:33,060 --> 05:01:37,280 the day and check back in each of those two days.

We're not in the deficit. 3998 05:07:46,810 --> 05:07:53,070 Right now, the way that it looks, we are, but we will be at the end of the year. 3999 05:07:53,550 --> 05:07:58,710 It looks very promising. I am not going to say that until the audit report is done, 4000 05:07:58,750 --> 05:08:08,790 and I have the audit report in my hands, because the auditor can come up with any type of adjustment that is unexpected. 4001 05:08:08,790 --> 05:08:33,210 But the way it looks, it's very promising, so that takes care of item 15, and at the back the very last page of item 15 is a report of unusual items, so that as reference to talk about revenues and expenditures, 4002 05:08:33,210 --> 05:08:51,170 We've also have recognized an increase in tax penalties, and we deserve a big shout-out to the assessor and the Treasury Department for getting on the phone and making calls for delinquent taxes. 4003 05:08:53,980 --> 05:09:00,310 So, that takes care of item 15, 4004 05:09:06,820 --> 05:09:13,360 I'd like to talk a few items on item 16, item 16 is basically the financial update. 4005 05:09:14,200 --> 05:09:28,460 So, because we implemented cost saving measures and we restricted our spending for the past four months since the end of May, 4006 05:09:29,940 --> 05:09:40,220 Our revenues, excluding our last month, we're still trying to get, we still have the C tax and some other adjustments. 4007 05:09:40,880 --> 05:09:49,560 Our revenues are coming in at $57 million, and our expenditures are coming in at $50, almost $59 million. 4008 05:09:49,560 --> 05:09:59,960 So, the deficit right now sits at $1.7 million, but that is before the final pay. 4009 05:10:00,000 --> 05:10:07,000 C tax, which typically is historically, has been around one and a half to $2 million. 4010 05:10:07,880 --> 05:10:11,940 And what was the deficit when we started these cost saving efforts? 4011 05:10:12,220 --> 05:10:21,400 So back in April, we were forecasting a deficit of $7.5 million. 4012 05:10:23,780 --> 05:10:32,840 So it's because of the cost saving measures and also the majority part is because of the better than budget revenues. 4013 05:10:34,700 --> 05:10:36,710 The revenues really saved us. 4014 05:10:41,600 --> 05:10:49,820 So the last piece of items of fiscal 26, actually, let me open it up for questions. 4015 05:10:49,820 --> 05:10:55,380 if anybody has questions on the financials, and then I'll talk about the one-course saving 4016 05:10:55,380 --> 05:10:58,700 measure that I have, which is on overtime. 4017 05:11:00,420 --> 05:11:04,120 Thank you, Mr. Mr. Bore, or Bain, do you guys have anything for Zena right now? 4018 05:11:06,480 --> 05:11:07,760 Chair, I'm waiting for overtime. 4019 05:11:08,000 --> 05:11:08,660 Sure, thank you. 4020 05:11:08,940 --> 05:11:09,040 Gotcha. 4021 05:11:13,560 --> 05:11:15,140 Okay, so then I'll talk about overtime. 4022 05:11:16,800 --> 05:11:23,260 So back in the end of May, Board of County Commissioners, you gave direction that all 4023 05:11:23,260 --> 05:11:28,560 over time had to be pre-approved or actually had to be approved by department heads. 4024 05:11:31,280 --> 05:11:38,040 So we took a look at over time for the month of June. 4025 05:11:39,140 --> 05:11:46,760 And just so you know we're going to be coming back every couple of months to be talking about the improvements that are being done on overtime. 4026 05:11:47,720 --> 05:11:58,540 As you know, or not know, maybe not as clear, over time was not a budgeted item in our fiscal 27 budget. 4027 05:12:00,300 --> 05:12:09,300 So, we took a look at the policy and the HR policy has a couple of components to it. 4028 05:12:09,300 --> 05:12:19,580 So people can earn comp time, as long as it's within their, unless there is a difference in the collective bargaining agreement. 4029 05:12:21,980 --> 05:12:28,540 The policy requires what theization in advance before the employee can work over time. 4030 05:12:29,540 --> 05:12:38,580 There is an exception that firefighters, their over time is built in to their collective 4031 05:12:38,580 --> 05:12:39,580 bargaining agreements. 4032 05:12:40,060 --> 05:12:43,340 So we don't have much say in that over time. 4033 05:12:43,660 --> 05:12:45,060 It's part of their schedule. 4034 05:12:48,180 --> 05:12:55,620 So we sent out an email in the beginning of August asking department heads to provide the 4035 05:12:55,620 --> 05:13:02,600 support for their overtime, the documented support approving it. And as you can see on the 4036 05:13:02,600 --> 05:13:15,210 back up, we have 12 departments that had overtime in the month of June. Of the 12 departments, 4037 05:13:17,340 --> 05:13:24,450 most of them complied with the policy and the direction from the commissioners to approve 4038 05:13:24,450 --> 05:13:34,190 over time. We have a few departments that issued a blanket over time memo to the finance 4039 05:13:34,190 --> 05:13:41,330 department and that blanket over time memo was dated after the overtime was paid. 4040 05:13:43,390 --> 05:13:45,630 So I met 4041 05:13:45,630 --> 05:13:54,890 with HR payroll and to come up with suggestions on how we can tighten that area. 4042 05:13:56,430 --> 05:14:06,370 And then since the policy related only to the county side, we do have one department 4043 05:14:06,370 --> 05:14:12,710 that actually charges both the county and the town and that's animal services. 4044 05:14:12,710 --> 05:14:19,850 So in your backup I include the town of Perumps so that you can see the total cost of animal 4045 05:14:19,850 --> 05:14:21,710 services over time. 4046 05:14:24,460 --> 05:14:27,640 So now if you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. 4047 05:14:28,260 --> 05:14:28,920 I'm going to start your board. 4048 05:14:31,180 --> 05:14:33,680 Thank you, Chair. Thank you, Zena, for that. 4049 05:14:39,060 --> 05:14:42,260 As one of the policies that you mentioned, 4050 05:14:44,930 --> 05:14:50,650 that employees must receive approval in advance. 4051 05:14:51,910 --> 05:14:55,050 is not conducive to 4052 05:14:57,800 --> 05:14:59,040 the last hour. 4053 05:15:00,000 --> 05:15:11,600 Our minutes of people's shifts, especially first responders, for example. I'm not being the clerks, 4054 05:15:11,600 --> 05:15:17,380 not being the clerks attorney. We have that position already filled. He's actually here in 4055 05:15:17,380 --> 05:15:28,100 Toronto, but I would assume that the overtime for June under the clerks category had to do specifically 4056 05:15:28,100 --> 05:15:29,640 with the primary election. 4057 05:15:35,280 --> 05:15:40,520 I know that I said at the last meeting that this came up is for 4058 05:15:40,520 --> 05:15:41,980 his cost-saving measures, 4059 05:15:44,200 --> 05:15:51,360 that department heads were required to approve, were required to approve 4060 05:15:51,360 --> 05:15:57,820 all over time. And I believe that's happened and looking at the chart, there's 11 of what I 4061 05:15:57,820 --> 05:16:00,740 that's it, women departments of what I counted. 4062 05:16:01,940 --> 05:16:05,620 And the biggest offender of overtime, 4063 05:16:06,500 --> 05:16:10,100 and not in a negative way, is the sheriff's office. 4064 05:16:10,920 --> 05:16:13,180 But that's historic, that's a historic number, 4065 05:16:14,340 --> 05:16:15,000 and an activity. 4066 05:16:16,540 --> 05:16:20,760 But I would ask the commissioners to consider 4067 05:16:22,820 --> 05:16:27,620 that at this time to continue the momentum of approved 4068 05:16:27,620 --> 05:16:35,720 over time is that there is no over time whatsoever. And if there is any over time 4069 05:16:37,000 --> 05:16:44,920 incurred, a type of justification form with an explanation must accompany the approved payroll 4070 05:16:45,500 --> 05:16:53,500 for any and all pay periods. Not just having the department had approved the over time 4071 05:16:53,500 --> 05:17:01,140 because they weren't even there, for example, but they were told that, oh, I had to do 4072 05:17:01,140 --> 05:17:07,680 overtime. Okay, it's approved. They say it. They log it. It has to be paid. 4073 05:17:10,280 --> 05:17:10,820 I believe 4074 05:17:10,820 --> 05:17:17,460 there should be a justification type form, as I mentioned, with a full explanation of why 4075 05:17:17,460 --> 05:17:24,240 they're incurring overtime. And that's submitted to payroll. That's a military HR, and 4076 05:17:24,240 --> 05:17:27,840 That's under review by the HR director and also the county manager. 4077 05:17:32,410 --> 05:17:38,710 And I'm certain that there will be times that those justification forms will be challenged 4078 05:17:41,370 --> 05:17:47,650 and that will eliminate some most over time in the future. 4079 05:17:52,770 --> 05:17:57,950 So again, I'd ask the commissioners to please consider that under this number 18 agenda is 4080 05:18:00,790 --> 05:18:02,990 I'll turn it back over to you, Chair. 4081 05:18:03,990 --> 05:18:04,430 Thank you, sir. 4082 05:18:04,930 --> 05:18:09,490 So, that would be in, yeah, direction of the staff. 4083 05:18:09,570 --> 05:18:12,230 To include Mr. Dr. Bores. 4084 05:18:13,250 --> 05:18:13,770 Direction. 4085 05:18:14,290 --> 05:18:14,550 Correct? 4086 05:18:14,910 --> 05:18:15,630 Go ahead, see you, sir. 4087 05:18:20,850 --> 05:18:23,590 Are we okay to talk about fiscal questions? 4088 05:18:24,070 --> 05:18:25,210 Sorry, Mr. May. 4089 05:18:27,070 --> 05:18:32,110 My question is, I don't, I want to put pressure on the talent, but is it, is it? 4090 05:18:32,110 --> 05:18:34,810 is a way to make the town do the same thing just for consistency 4091 05:18:34,810 --> 05:18:36,290 for over time. 4092 05:18:36,610 --> 05:18:37,330 I think she'll be everybody. 4093 05:18:40,110 --> 05:18:40,890 That's my question. 4094 05:18:41,190 --> 05:18:41,650 Is that okay? 4095 05:18:41,890 --> 05:18:44,150 I would agree with that commissioner, 4096 05:18:45,670 --> 05:18:48,910 because we do have, for instance, our buildings and grounds 4097 05:18:48,910 --> 05:18:53,810 that we're looking at that as considerable over time. 4098 05:18:54,170 --> 05:18:57,850 And we're trying to evaluate if it's a scheduling issue 4099 05:18:57,850 --> 05:18:58,650 or what it is. 4100 05:18:59,330 --> 05:19:03,210 But I definitely would agree with that. 4101 05:19:03,210 --> 05:19:06,410 How do we how do we make that happen to vote on it or can just do it? 4102 05:19:07,130 --> 05:19:09,710 They would go in direction, right? 4103 05:19:10,530 --> 05:19:11,890 Good direction to staff. 4104 05:19:13,250 --> 05:19:14,830 Direction directions noted. 4105 05:19:15,490 --> 05:19:18,210 We're including first responders in all of that. 4106 05:19:18,970 --> 05:19:23,850 Now, I'm not going to, I'm not going to tell a fire guy that's out in the middle of a house fire. 4107 05:19:24,290 --> 05:19:25,070 You've got to go. 4108 05:19:25,270 --> 05:19:25,830 You've got to go. 4109 05:19:26,030 --> 05:19:31,130 So that is, so fire is collective bargaining agreement. 4110 05:19:31,130 --> 05:19:38,430 their schedule, which we have chief here. He can talk to the schedule. It's automatically 4111 05:19:38,430 --> 05:19:40,570 at part of their schedule. 4112 05:19:42,730 --> 05:19:51,370 They work two days on one day off. So it's built into their weekly, 4113 05:19:51,370 --> 05:19:54,110 they're bi-weekly pay. 4114 05:19:54,850 --> 05:19:55,050 Okay. 4115 05:19:56,310 --> 05:19:57,570 What else you got for us? 4116 05:19:59,540 --> 05:19:59,920 That was it. 4117 05:20:00,000 --> 05:20:03,440 Okay. Councillor Cullis, I'm sorry. 4118 05:20:03,640 --> 05:20:04,300 Sorry, I had a commissioner. 4119 05:20:05,260 --> 05:20:08,020 Just a really quick, and this might be, I'd get back to me thing. 4120 05:20:08,280 --> 05:20:10,680 I'm looking at the sheriff's numbers, and I think the commissioner's 4121 05:20:10,680 --> 05:20:13,300 Board was kind of talking about, and I'm not trying to open up a 4122 05:20:13,300 --> 05:20:18,640 won't hear another bad thing, but 33,000, that's dollars in over time. 4123 05:20:18,820 --> 05:20:20,800 What is that out? Was it 33,000 dollars? 4124 05:20:21,060 --> 05:20:23,440 That is $30,000, yes. 4125 05:20:24,060 --> 05:20:27,860 And if we're doing that a month, that'd be like 300,000, that's approximately two 4126 05:20:27,860 --> 05:20:34,080 I mean, I like to just hear the finance directors opinion of this because otherwise it's going to turn political. 4127 05:20:35,320 --> 05:20:42,340 Why not just like maybe swap that out for like one full-time deputy? Is there a fiscal reason why you don't want to do that? 4128 05:20:42,820 --> 05:20:51,800 I believe you have to look at their schedule and that would be a question for the sheriff or for the finance manager to talk about how these schedule their staff. 4129 05:20:52,760 --> 05:20:57,920 So the concern is that it's a tricky, if we don't have a manager that can execute that, 4130 05:20:58,360 --> 05:21:00,220 then it would all fall apart and we'd end up spending more money. 4131 05:21:00,360 --> 05:21:01,580 That's basically, is that correct? 4132 05:21:01,860 --> 05:21:03,660 This is a management problem we're dealing with. 4133 05:21:06,440 --> 05:21:11,100 Well, it would be nice to weigh the magic one and say, hey, let's just hire one and two guys. 4134 05:21:11,380 --> 05:21:13,900 It's 130,000 instead of 330,000. 4135 05:21:14,040 --> 05:21:17,060 But the problem is that if we don't manage those two new guys, 4136 05:21:17,160 --> 05:21:20,520 our gals, or whatever correctly, then we might be doing the two, 4137 05:21:20,520 --> 05:21:26,900 And then in addition to the overtime, if it's not managed correctly, there's a good kind of 4138 05:21:26,900 --> 05:21:28,820 one to share this. 4139 05:21:29,140 --> 05:21:32,240 In general terms, I'm going to agree with you commissioner. 4140 05:21:35,770 --> 05:21:42,310 So, in the policy, it does talk about if the department has an overtime policy. 4141 05:21:43,130 --> 05:21:48,390 So, I did inquire about that and I did that this morning. 4142 05:21:48,390 --> 05:21:52,890 so I haven't had a chance to look at my email or to follow up on that. 4143 05:21:54,790 --> 05:21:57,330 Can we should have been, may I mention something? 4144 05:21:57,330 --> 05:21:58,070 Excuse me. 4145 05:21:58,190 --> 05:21:59,770 I don't want to thank you. 4146 05:22:00,490 --> 05:22:03,670 So I understand mathematically what you're saying. 4147 05:22:04,290 --> 05:22:07,910 But we're not talking about just two deputies in Perum. 4148 05:22:08,050 --> 05:22:11,470 We're talking over time for the Sheriff's Office throughout the county. 4149 05:22:12,110 --> 05:22:17,510 And so to hire to get rid of the 31,000 in overtime on paper, 4150 05:22:17,510 --> 05:22:24,210 We hire two deputies. They're in Perump, but they're incurring over time in Ram Mountain or here in Tone of Power or 4151 05:22:24,210 --> 05:22:29,210 And those could be dispatchers. Yes, we can know that it is. Yeah, it's on point. It's not a fine initial price 4152 05:22:29,210 --> 05:22:34,530 If we could just have a bunch of people making widgets in one room, then it would make sense to just hire two new people 4153 05:22:34,530 --> 05:22:41,370 But it's then it becomes a complicated management problem. Yes, and that's where we're at so we need to just figure out 4154 05:22:41,370 --> 05:22:49,330 Maybe at some point we can get from the sheriff's office any kind of any kind of like way to maybe fix that probably here's what I suggest 4155 05:22:49,330 --> 05:22:53,870 It is what a normal company would do. I need to direct that to the discussion about normal. See you're a company 4156 05:22:53,870 --> 05:22:59,510 But an animal company would say sure if we're paying $350,000 a year to actually be more than that 4157 05:22:59,510 --> 05:23:02,510 It's actually more like the $400,000 a year 4158 05:23:02,510 --> 05:23:07,230 How do you recommend with staffing levels to to make that better? 4159 05:23:07,230 --> 05:23:11,190 And so I would like to see your report like that. I don't want to put more pressure on the sheriff's office 4160 05:23:11,190 --> 05:23:16,530 But it would be an interesting. Do you agree with me that'd be an interesting thing to ask for at least? 4161 05:23:17,070 --> 05:23:18,050 Well, Commissioner 4162 05:23:20,390 --> 05:23:29,830 The the sheriff's department's got many different positions. It's not just deputies that incur over time. I mean, it's dispatch. It's 4163 05:23:29,830 --> 05:23:35,230 You know, it's a jail. It's I mean, it's all kind of different for an office. I totally understand 4164 05:23:35,230 --> 05:23:39,750 I was just wondering if there's a way to just not compel it, but just ask if there's a way, 4165 05:23:40,010 --> 05:23:44,430 if you want more people, how do we, if it's a cheaper way to get more people instead of the over time, 4166 05:23:44,590 --> 05:23:47,430 show us the plan, but we have to make sure we're going to blow past that plan. 4167 05:23:48,010 --> 05:23:49,650 I'm not suggesting creating policy. 4168 05:23:49,790 --> 05:23:54,130 I just wouldn't mind seeing just, this is what managers typically do in companies, it's hard, 4169 05:23:54,170 --> 05:23:57,410 it's hard to be a manager, it's not just strutting around and saying, I'm a manager, it's actually 4170 05:23:57,410 --> 05:23:58,210 doing stuff like this. 4171 05:23:58,470 --> 05:24:02,170 So I don't know if it's possible, if we could get that that would be wonderful if not, 4172 05:24:02,250 --> 05:24:03,650 then that's what it is. 4173 05:24:03,650 --> 05:24:12,810 That kind of plays back to the last item, or the item with the position policy, 4174 05:24:13,210 --> 05:24:18,530 filling position policy. That's all kind of to get that information for that justification. 4175 05:24:20,350 --> 05:24:25,050 So that's exactly what we're trying to accomplish. So you're on the right track. 4176 05:24:26,940 --> 05:24:34,260 So the last piece, that was the Sheriff's Office, that did not include the overtime for the 4177 05:24:34,260 --> 05:24:38,600 middle of the page, which is an additional $18,700. 4178 05:24:41,640 --> 05:24:44,380 Just to point that out, since we were talking about that. 4179 05:24:51,080 --> 05:24:52,860 OK, come on, sir, it's the week. 4180 05:24:53,720 --> 05:24:54,460 I have something to present. 4181 05:24:54,580 --> 05:24:57,460 Chair, the only thing I heard came from direction to staff 4182 05:24:57,460 --> 05:24:58,660 in regards to item number eight. 4183 05:25:00,000 --> 05:25:05,440 18, of the items that we've opened, but I think seeing it has one more to discuss. 4184 05:25:06,740 --> 05:25:09,320 When you're done, then we'll open public. 4185 05:25:10,000 --> 05:25:20,820 Okay. So fiscal 27, we started the budget process, and it was very difficult this year to say the least. 4186 05:25:21,720 --> 05:25:30,600 We had to pull back on filled positions, open positions, which was very hard for many departments, 4187 05:25:31,300 --> 05:25:34,200 especially for our safety area. 4188 05:25:35,480 --> 05:25:41,060 And then we also had to do a 34% cut in service and supplies. 4189 05:25:42,200 --> 05:25:47,400 So this is an update where we are with the fiscal 27 budget. 4190 05:25:49,970 --> 05:25:54,350 We had the early employee separation program. 4191 05:25:54,750 --> 05:26:02,430 We are going to be putting forward an agenda item to reduce salaries, benefits, 4192 05:26:04,810 --> 05:26:04,810 and 4193 05:26:05,230 --> 05:26:08,270 we class where the cost savings was a placeholder. 4194 05:26:08,990 --> 05:26:10,850 That's going to be about a million dollars. 4195 05:26:11,650 --> 05:26:15,730 We have to move the jail fund over to the general fund. 4196 05:26:16,850 --> 05:26:32,710 It's going to take a little time to do that because of the transactions have to be stopped so it will take some time for us to cut off the jail fund and bring it over to the general fund. 4197 05:26:33,050 --> 05:26:40,730 But in the most part, this is just a summary to show you where we stand with the fiscal 27 budget. 4198 05:26:41,930 --> 05:26:51,910 Our budget was balanced when we approved it, and because there was so much pushback from 4199 05:26:51,910 --> 05:26:58,850 some departments saying that they did not have enough in their budget for service and supplies, 4200 05:27:00,610 --> 05:27:10,710 I have a few more departments to work with, but so far we have budget and item will be coming back to 4201 05:27:10,710 --> 05:27:17,890 the Board of Commissioners at the next agenda meeting to talk about more specifics.

All right, see, I'm doing everybody on the phone, please. 4372 05:41:03,160 --> 05:41:03,620 No chair. 4373 05:41:03,920 --> 05:41:04,520 I'm on up, Susie. 4374 05:41:10,390 --> 05:41:12,670 Susie Hurts, H-E-R-T-Z. 4375 05:41:14,330 --> 05:41:18,470 Just something I noticed, I've noticed many times actually, 4376 05:41:19,250 --> 05:41:21,990 and that has due with an expense of the county. 4377 05:41:22,650 --> 05:41:29,670 And I was, when I came in this morning, the sprinklers were running in the eye all over the grass. 4378 05:41:30,670 --> 05:41:40,630 Where I come from, which is the less drought-strickened area, people generally watered their 4379 05:41:40,630 --> 05:41:47,850 grass in their plants at nighttime when the winds were usually calmer and it was quieter 4380 05:41:48,590 --> 05:41:52,650 and it was more effective use of the water. 4381 05:41:52,650 --> 05:42:02,490 So, I might make a suggestion that that be looked at here, everywhere you go throughout town where there's any public land. 4382 05:42:03,110 --> 05:42:08,690 The sprinklers are always running in the daytime. The wind blows the water away. It doesn't water what you're watering. 4383 05:42:09,530 --> 05:42:18,930 Today there was a guy with his dog in the park and he couldn't use the park. He was walking around the edge on the pavement because he couldn't get to the grass. 4384 05:42:21,040 --> 05:42:48,060 I hate to repeat myself, but until something changes, I guess I'll have to, and that is to reinforce the fact that we who live here have moved here or have come here to live in a rural small community, and that doesn't mean we're against change and it doesn't mean we're against progress. 4385 05:42:48,060 --> 05:42:54,420 Any of us who came from somewhere else came from a much more metropolitan environment that this, 4386 05:42:54,620 --> 05:42:59,100 so we're used to living a much higher life and a much more sophisticated life. 4387 05:42:59,340 --> 05:43:03,600 But we've chosen to come here and be here and live here. 4388 05:43:04,000 --> 05:43:11,720 And I would respectfully ask that this county administration and everybody in it keep that in mind. 4389 05:43:11,840 --> 05:43:12,620 Thank you, Susie. 4390 05:43:12,960 --> 05:43:13,240 Thank you. 4391 05:43:13,340 --> 05:43:14,740 Thank you. 4392 05:43:17,010 --> 05:43:19,110 Yes, Chair, the caller is unmuted. 4393 05:43:19,530 --> 05:43:21,010 Please speak in the following name for the record. 4394 05:43:24,360 --> 05:43:27,140 Yeah, my name is Matt Sather, FAD, LER. 4395 05:43:27,260 --> 05:43:29,080 Good evening, commissioners. 4396 05:43:30,260 --> 05:43:32,100 I just want to put something on the radar here 4397 05:43:32,100 --> 05:43:33,920 if I'm coming down the line, 4398 05:43:34,320 --> 05:43:35,480 or that I've been hearing from them, though, 4399 05:43:35,940 --> 05:43:38,320 that's a municipal, Toronto Police Force, 4400 05:43:38,500 --> 05:43:41,760 which would add a level of bureaucracy in our community 4401 05:43:41,760 --> 05:43:44,720 that I would urge you to really question 4402 05:43:44,720 --> 05:43:46,840 as to whether or not we would need that. 4403 05:43:47,220 --> 05:43:48,820 My personal opinion, no way. 4404 05:43:48,820 --> 05:43:52,640 You've already gotten rid of something like that in the past in the form of a town board. 4405 05:43:52,800 --> 05:43:55,900 I don't think we need that again. We don't need that expense. 4406 05:43:56,560 --> 05:43:59,780 Focus resources on bolstering the existing 9 County Sheriff's Office. 4407 05:44:00,200 --> 05:44:01,300 Please, thank you. 4408 05:44:01,520 --> 05:44:02,640 Thank you. Come on up, Linda. 4409 05:44:06,760 --> 05:44:08,280 Linda Clark, Sally, are okay. 4410 05:44:08,740 --> 05:44:12,700 I just have a couple of observations from a couple of things that were on the agenda earlier. 4411 05:44:13,020 --> 05:44:15,940 So I hope that I can speak to those. 4412 05:44:18,800 --> 05:44:24,160 When Mr. Sutton was up here talking about the project that he is representing, they talked 4413 05:44:24,160 --> 05:44:27,800 a lot about what they're going to do over there, and the thing that really threw me off 4414 05:44:27,800 --> 05:44:31,400 the most, and I'm sure the people that live up there in that area are really concerned 4415 05:44:31,400 --> 05:44:39,420 about it, is water. Not once they mention water and what they're going to be using, and 4416 05:44:39,420 --> 05:44:45,840 that seems to be kind of a concern. They did say that they were going to put in 4417 05:44:45,840 --> 05:44:52,940 a park. Okay, the park needs to be watered and I'm assuming that the park is below 4418 05:44:52,940 --> 05:44:58,880 Where they were gonna put their whatever that thing was that they were gonna keep the water from I don't know the technical terms 4419 05:45:00,340 --> 05:45:07,560 The basic thing, that was going to be below the basin, was a park going to be above it, in it. 4420 05:45:07,980 --> 05:45:17,440 Okay, so if we have a flood or some other kind of prompt and we know that area if there is a flood zone and they do have flooding up there, really bad. 4421 05:45:17,680 --> 05:45:20,960 And at the one meeting that we had, a lot of people did complain about it. 4422 05:45:21,280 --> 05:45:27,480 And they were so upset that they all left at the end of the thing because of the decisions that were made, people just walked out. 4423 05:45:27,480 --> 05:45:31,280 It was disgusting, but it happened and it was deserved. 4424 05:45:32,180 --> 05:45:39,240 So, my question is if we're going to put a park where there's a possibility that we can have a flood and kids could get hurt, 4425 05:45:40,040 --> 05:45:42,400 Gee, we'll have another splash pad that is an authorized. 4426 05:45:43,320 --> 05:45:47,760 So, why? Why wouldn't we care about that? 4427 05:45:48,260 --> 05:45:52,160 I mean, obviously these kids could get hurt, somebody could get hurt really bad. 4428 05:45:52,160 --> 05:46:03,880 And they weren't talking about the water, and the flooding, they were talking about an area where they're going to put a park, and they're obviously going to be using water. 4429 05:46:04,580 --> 05:46:11,000 So I don't understand why we would put something in an area where the kids could be hurt. 4430 05:46:11,000 --> 05:46:12,340 Thank you, Linda. Yes. 4431 05:46:12,500 --> 05:46:14,100 And we got anybody on the phone, please? 4432 05:46:14,460 --> 05:46:15,900 Yes, Chair, the caller is unmuted. 4433 05:46:16,300 --> 05:46:17,800 Please, because of all your name for the record. 4434 05:46:21,090 --> 05:46:21,470 Oh, yes. 4435 05:46:21,650 --> 05:46:24,190 Amy Nelson, Gini L.

Maybe our new board will be. Thank you. Thanks, Amy. Come on down, please. 4450 05:47:48,980 --> 05:47:53,960 Angelina Jackson, JAC, K.S. Owen. I'm not sure if we're being given two or three minutes. 4451 05:47:54,320 --> 05:47:59,020 If the time was set for two or three minutes, Mr. Wagner said that it was going to be for three minutes. 4452 05:48:00,320 --> 05:48:03,020 It's two minutes all the time. Mr. Wagner said it three minutes. 4453 05:48:03,020 --> 05:48:11,640 voice in your own time. First of all, I would like to address the board. I don't know which one 4454 05:48:11,640 --> 05:48:16,660 of you made the comment something about referred to somebody as a scumbag. That is uncalled for 4455 05:48:17,360 --> 05:48:23,300 and does not represent a way that a commissioner should behave. Also, the fact that it's going 4456 05:48:23,300 --> 05:48:28,300 well, that's not my district. If you're a commissioner on this board for the county, it's not just 4457 05:48:28,300 --> 05:48:34,240 district they are responsible for it's the entire county so sit in there and you know 4458 05:48:34,240 --> 05:48:39,300 and not putting your input and not being concerned about it then you shouldn't be a part of 4459 05:48:39,300 --> 05:48:47,920 this for what if that's all you're gonna do second or next Mr. Bane you running around the park filming 4460 05:48:47,920 --> 05:48:55,160 the homeless and filming the garbage can in the park is excuse me sir but made you look like a 4461 05:48:55,160 --> 05:49:06,140 range lunatic. That was just unbecoming of anybody, whether in an officer or not. And it kind 4462 05:49:06,140 --> 05:49:10,700 of represents the way that this whole commission has been behaving like the range lunatics. 4463 05:49:11,800 --> 05:49:15,980 So I think we need to set back and look at your own behaviors before you go scrutinizing 4464 05:49:15,980 --> 05:49:20,960 anybody else's decorum as like that word you guys like to throw around but have no meaning 4465 05:49:20,960 --> 05:49:30,200 what it means. You want respect, get respect back, act like you deserve it. And it's 4466 05:49:30,200 --> 05:49:34,980 edited that there's many of the board members here that don't give a damn about the community. 4467 05:49:36,140 --> 05:49:41,220 What's so webb? Because they don't want to listen. And that's fine. Because the only people 4468 05:49:41,220 --> 05:49:47,320 who's looking like a fool here are you guys, not me and not nobody else out here. And again, 4469 05:49:47,320 --> 05:49:51,500 I will be calling for that forensic audit at everybody's payroll business here. 4470 05:49:51,820 --> 05:49:51,960 You're welcome. 4471 05:49:51,960 --> 05:49:53,480 Do we have anybody on the phone, please? 4472 05:49:54,160 --> 05:49:54,540 Yes, sure. 4473 05:49:54,600 --> 05:49:55,560 The caller is unmuted. 4474 05:49:55,820 --> 05:49:56,040 Please. 4475 05:49:56,180 --> 05:49:57,500 Speak in the name for the record. 4476 05:50:00,660 --> 05:50:09,440 The treachera, the RLBV 2 minutes to speak.

Nobody knew about it. 4496 05:51:52,260 --> 05:52:00,620 I called and raised Holy Hell. I started a website and it kind of morphed into not only VA, 4497 05:52:01,260 --> 05:52:11,160 now it's morphed into Nik County as well as some out of County towns that have called 4498 05:52:11,160 --> 05:52:18,900 ask questions, and it has involved the majority of people in the town that are on Facebook. 4499 05:52:19,500 --> 05:52:27,560 And I want to say, I am damn proud of all these people standing up and voicing their opinion. 4500 05:52:28,540 --> 05:52:35,320 Everyone of you guys that do any kind of research, I want to say, good job. 4501 05:52:36,240 --> 05:52:39,940 Keep it up because that's what the whole thing was about. 4502 05:52:39,940 --> 05:52:46,740 And it's not to yell at you, I don't, I don't know you guys personally. 4503 05:52:47,840 --> 05:52:53,380 I can yell at you though about the things that are happening because of my frustration. 4504 05:52:54,720 --> 05:52:59,900 And if anybody hates you personally, you then you know, okay, but I don't know you, so 4505 05:52:59,900 --> 05:53:01,100 I can't hate you. 4506 05:53:01,500 --> 05:53:09,920 But sometimes you know, it gets really frustrating when we ask a question, there's no 4507 05:53:09,920 --> 05:53:16,120 an email and they don't get a response.

Our town manager, 4528 05:55:11,780 --> 05:55:21,060 I'm sorry, not our town manager, town board, chairwoman, chairman, has called it Ashmeadows National Conservation Area. 4529 05:55:21,580 --> 05:55:28,060 That's the song that's been sung to us. But in the documents that she has submitted to you folks and the public 4530 05:55:28,060 --> 05:55:35,460 plants, department of which I have seen many, it is the Amargo-Sanational Conservation Area, 4531 05:55:35,680 --> 05:55:42,880 and that's really scary. Because that means it's no longer just ash medows, or save ash 4532 05:55:42,880 --> 05:55:51,740 medows. It is the entire Amargo-Savali that is going to be converted into a national monument 4533 05:55:51,740 --> 05:55:58,060 or our national conservation area, which means that that's going to restrict our rights as 4534 05:55:58,060 --> 05:56:04,540 property owners, our wells. If they go dry, the conservation is so-called conservation thing, 4535 05:56:05,120 --> 05:56:10,020 can come in and say, you know what? If you're well as dry too bad, we're not going to let you 4536 05:56:10,020 --> 05:56:16,100 drill another well. Our taxes are going to go up. That's already been proven with other places, 4537 05:56:16,100 --> 05:56:26,680 where property taxes have gone up, where people live close to a conservation area, or a national conservation area, or a park. 4538 05:56:27,440 --> 05:56:31,620 We don't want that. We're not asking for that. We're not the ones looking for trouble. 4539 05:56:32,160 --> 05:56:37,680 So I don't understand why our chairman feels that she can be doing this to us. 4540 05:56:37,820 --> 05:56:40,480 Thank you very much.
