1 00:00:05,230 --> 00:00:13,150 The other thing is if you're here to make comments during public comments, we ask you to keep those remarks brief, or as brief as you can, we appreciate that. 2 00:00:13,730 --> 00:00:22,430 This morning we have was for hand vocation, Reverend Bond, who was first United Methodist, and alarm call will lead us in the pledge. Please stand. 3 00:00:32,230 --> 00:00:41,110 If you would pray with me, have it my father, we are reminded as we continue to celebrate 4 00:00:41,950 --> 00:00:51,050 our hundredth anniversary that this is your county, and what does that mean for us here 5 00:00:51,050 --> 00:00:51,930 to do business? 6 00:00:51,930 --> 00:01:02,590 as well. John Wesley found a methodism says start with Scripture. So let us remind ourselves 7 00:01:02,590 --> 00:01:11,150 that we need to look at everything and see if it's in conflict with Scripture. But to that, 8 00:01:11,150 --> 00:01:26,390 we add logic, tradition, and reason, as well as experience. We do those things in a nice 9 00:01:26,390 --> 00:01:27,510 neat package. 10 00:01:29,650 --> 00:01:34,730 Your will more likely will be done. So we call your Holy Spirit to come 11 00:01:34,730 --> 00:01:44,710 with us. Each and every one of us with different agendas and different ideas and make us 12 00:01:44,710 --> 00:01:51,930 cohesive. We are one in the spirit. I pray in Christ's name, Amen. 13 00:02:09,030 --> 00:02:10,710 Thank you, Reverend Bond. 14 00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:16,780 Who had an open meeting for public comments? 15 00:02:17,660 --> 00:02:21,120 I know we have for sure one person. 16 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,120 I know other people here. 17 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,820 But Tony Bishop, if you would like to come up with a comment. 18 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:33,400 Morning chair. 19 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:45,880 My name is Tony Bishop and I'm here on behalf of the Brake Club and for those of you who don't know what the Brake Club is, it stands for building a relationship with a team. 20 00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:53,160 And what they do is they put on team dances, wants them on a tier, didn't middle school, 21 00:02:53,380 --> 00:02:58,640 a lot of touring, and kind of helps keep the team at your job for street, for at least 22 00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,440 one nice point. 23 00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:03,620 And you know, whatever they can do, and they put on dodgeball tournaments and such things 24 00:03:03,620 --> 00:03:04,020 that. 25 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:10,800 And five years ago, Okacheo, we canceled the Labor Day for eight. 26 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:19,420 And the Brock Club took that up and has been a real successful with it for five years, excuse me. 27 00:03:20,420 --> 00:03:27,560 So, in reading the paper last week, we noticed that the Catalyst Association had canceled the PRCA Labor Day Radio, 28 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,020 which has been a tradition in October for years. 29 00:03:32,180 --> 00:03:39,040 So, the Brock Club decided that they would love to keep up the tradition and put on a Labor Day Ranch Radio 30 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:47,880 in place of the PRCA review and we are going to try to make this successful and be an annual 31 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,320 deal as long as a cattle and a dissociation doesn't want to come back and put on our PRCA 32 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:53,840 review on my equipment. 33 00:03:54,520 --> 00:04:03,180 In doing so, we had to hire some judges and pick up me and some managers and timekeepers 34 00:04:03,180 --> 00:04:08,920 of secretaries and incurred a lot of costs in doing so to have this rodeo. 35 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:15,560 We have secured the axonor for September to fail to Saturday afternoon, but on this 36 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:16,880 rodeo, one day rodeo. 37 00:04:18,260 --> 00:04:22,860 And what the Brack Club could ask me to do is come up here and ask the commission if they 38 00:04:22,860 --> 00:04:27,160 would consider, because of the financial obligation of putting on this rodeo to carry 39 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:32,020 on this tradition, if they would consider a way that we would defeat one time beads for the 40 00:04:32,020 --> 00:04:34,480 is there for us to put this on? 41 00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:48,340 Who, what would the cost be for us, Albe, to wait to see? 42 00:04:48,860 --> 00:04:50,800 Well, obviously, it's since it's not an agenda item. 43 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,880 We can't vote on it today, but that's fine if he would respond to that. 44 00:04:55,140 --> 00:04:56,540 But it's just not an agenda item. 45 00:04:56,660 --> 00:04:57,420 We can't vote on it. 46 00:04:58,900 --> 00:04:59,700 Yes, sir. 47 00:05:01,860 --> 00:05:06,120 Just for basic costs, $7,000, $50,000 is a real fee for the day. 48 00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:09,000 Give a take at the dollars here and there for you. 49 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:24,720 a little electrical calls and a board member I'm going to introduce myself from many future 50 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,480 vote on this, but I would just like to give a little background.

I just don't particularly like the president we said by doing that. 81 00:07:43,220 --> 00:07:46,280 Well, I don't either accept it. 82 00:07:47,020 --> 00:07:55,800 It's really not about the money. I mean, it's not the president that you would say about having something in public comment. 83 00:07:58,980 --> 00:08:00,540 I agree that it's the precedent. 84 00:08:01,780 --> 00:08:02,800 Let me ask a question. 85 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,000 If you don't get the waiver of the fees, 86 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,760 are you going to do the event anyway? 87 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:07,560 Certainly. 88 00:08:07,980 --> 00:08:09,120 We're going to continue with you then. 89 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,220 Since he's going to do the event anyway, 90 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,440 he could come back to the next meeting. 91 00:08:12,620 --> 00:08:13,580 It really isn't too late, 92 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,240 and the board could wait the second. 93 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,620 Okay, that's the reason. 94 00:08:19,020 --> 00:08:20,040 That's the reason I made this suggestion. 95 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:20,820 That's the reason I made this suggestion. 96 00:08:20,820 --> 00:08:22,140 When he was going to do the event, 97 00:08:22,140 --> 00:08:27,680 I do that. Our next meeting, we could place it on the agenda and vote for that time. 98 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,200 And then you're not setting the presence and it keeps everything squared. 99 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,720 Thank you, Mr. President. 100 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:36,740 All right. Thank you, John. 101 00:08:39,020 --> 00:08:40,300 Any other public comments? 102 00:08:43,420 --> 00:08:44,220 Last call? 103 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:46,080 Motion. 104 00:08:46,420 --> 00:08:46,760 Motion. 105 00:08:47,100 --> 00:08:47,620 Motion. 106 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:48,240 Second. 107 00:08:49,460 --> 00:08:49,980 Second. 108 00:08:49,980 --> 00:08:50,040 Second. 109 00:08:50,100 --> 00:08:50,420 Second.

Can I just ask to make sure that is up to date there. 122 00:09:49,210 --> 00:09:50,430 Please pay much for up to date. 123 00:09:56,810 --> 00:10:01,630 As of the first of the month, she did have a balance of a thousand fifty eight dollars. 124 00:10:01,830 --> 00:10:03,470 I'm not sure if she's made a payment. 125 00:10:04,130 --> 00:10:06,750 Today, but she's relatively current. 126 00:10:06,750 --> 00:10:07,110 Okay. 127 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:31,400 Not really a change, but just a comment about code, I'm not going to stuff which I've made 128 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,100 in the past. 129 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:39,100 I think one of the ones we are, the Sun Consentage into the day ran for 3,000 plus days. 130 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:50,740 I think we ought to come up with some way to, not let it go 3,000 days before we come 131 00:10:50,740 --> 00:10:51,300 for a resolution. 132 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:55,880 I mean, I'm assuming that the purpose of code enforcement is to clean things up and make 133 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:05,680 make them in compliance and not get money and allow something to go for 3,000 days, I would suggest 134 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:07,920 it's not a solution to a code violation. 135 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:08,360 I 136 00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:16,040 think it was suggested to increase the time limit of set of time limit. 137 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:23,740 From past experience on a code board, we had a, we had an established 90-day time frame 138 00:11:23,740 --> 00:11:28,820 where it went back, the code board people went back and looked at it and made the recommendation 139 00:11:28,820 --> 00:11:44,740 to the governing board, to lean it, you know, foreclose it whatever, to push it along rather than just, as is in this case the, the fine was significantly more value, 140 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:50,380 more costly than the value of the property and obviously didn't get cleaned up until it changed hands. 141 00:11:51,100 --> 00:12:12,160 But the idea was, if you let it go 90 days and it wasn't resolved, then the code, in this case, I guess, the code department under Bill would have to make some recommendation to cut it off and put it in some situation where you could move it along to some quicker resolution than 3,000 days. 142 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,200 Mr. Chairman. 143 00:12:13,680 --> 00:12:15,020 You said, lean it or foreclose. 144 00:12:15,060 --> 00:12:16,020 This one was lean. 145 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:22,660 I mean, when the fine is imposed, the judgment is recorded in the public records and it 146 00:12:22,660 --> 00:12:26,920 becomes a lean on the property and actually it becomes a lean on any other real property 147 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:27,960 owned by the violator. 148 00:12:28,140 --> 00:12:31,120 So this has been under lean all of this time. 149 00:12:31,420 --> 00:12:36,100 There are various reasons why the individual properties are not foreclosed on. 150 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,600 We cannot foreclose on homestead property. 151 00:12:38,740 --> 00:12:40,420 I'm not saying that this one was homestead. 152 00:12:40,420 --> 00:12:46,040 I'm just giving an example that if we have 10 properties with leans, but nine of them are 153 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,860 homestead, we can't foreclose on nine of them. 154 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:54,740 There are also occasions where we have a lean, but there are either first, first, at or 155 00:12:54,740 --> 00:12:58,840 second mortgages, and the second mortgages on the property, and if the county foreclosed, 156 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,020 we would take over the property subject to those mortgages often times, and then we would 157 00:13:03,020 --> 00:13:04,860 be responsible for paying off those mortgages. 158 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:13,420 So in reality, the window of properties that's clean and open for closures is not as big 159 00:13:13,420 --> 00:13:14,840 as you might think. 160 00:13:15,900 --> 00:13:20,040 And I'm okay with that, but there might be other options to try and, again, the purpose of 161 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,820 the code enforcement is to... 162 00:13:21,820 --> 00:13:22,520 Asheaf complains. 163 00:13:22,580 --> 00:13:27,680 I don't know if I find somebody to let him on over there, or to lean the property and take 164 00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:28,080 the property. 165 00:13:28,220 --> 00:13:29,120 And that's not the purpose. 166 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,080 The purpose is to encourage the property owner to clean it up, and there might be some 167 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:33,560 other options. 168 00:13:33,560 --> 00:13:38,040 I don't know which ones, what the mic they are, but I would suggest the look and so they 169 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:38,860 didn't. 170 00:13:39,140 --> 00:13:39,920 Again, it's a purpose. 171 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,480 It's kind of things we're not achieving that necessarily. 172 00:13:44,260 --> 00:13:48,160 The only thing I would suggest is if because each code violation stands under someone 173 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:53,560 merit, they have its own personality, one code violation may be resolved in two weeks, where 174 00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:57,580 another one may take several months, another because of the cause, because of the size. 175 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,580 So I would kind of like to leave that up to the discretion of code enforcement is to what 176 00:14:02,580 --> 00:14:21,480 it would be reasonable time, you know, and I understand when you come from, and I concur it's just the fact is that if you set a time certain like 90 days or 120 days, it may be good for one in one situation but may not fit another, you know, so I would defer to code enforcement to let

The GFOA recommends, I think, three months of expenses, three to four months. 283 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:54,940 Emergency fund for a couple of reasons, if you, you know, there are issues major cost come up, but also if, because of the timing of revenues. 284 00:22:54,940 --> 00:23:04,160 You don't always get your envelope revenues. You start that in November or so. So you want to have the funds in there to cover for the first couple months expenses. 285 00:23:08,140 --> 00:23:12,460 Well, I would suggest you that we don't need the reserve for capital expenses. That's not an emergency. 286 00:23:18,660 --> 00:23:30,640 And if we do that another funds, I would suggest that we shouldn't do that either because again, my reserve is that it is for operating expenses for that period of time when you need money that you don't have the cash flow to pay for your business. 287 00:23:31,260 --> 00:23:36,820 If you don't have cash money, you won't make any capital investments during that time. 288 00:23:37,140 --> 00:23:42,660 Because you'd be having to pay your staff, you would for a go capital expense. 289 00:23:44,180 --> 00:23:47,080 But that short period of time might be even a lengthy period of time. 290 00:23:48,180 --> 00:23:54,020 I would add, though, there are times when you would accumulate an additional reserve 291 00:23:54,020 --> 00:23:57,160 if you knew you had a large piece of equipment you were going to replace, 292 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:03,680 So that you're not hitting the assessment all in one year to pay for a $4,500,000 piece of equipment. 293 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,220 And you would stagger that over and put that aside. 294 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,100 So we did do that originally with this. There were pieces of equipment in there five year plan. 295 00:24:11,260 --> 00:24:14,080 And we began to save the dollar so we would have it enough. 296 00:24:15,300 --> 00:24:22,440 So are we assuming the next 1717 that we're going to spend $500,000 on capital? 297 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,240 I don't know what you have in the 15th. 298 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,180 We're in 15th, 16th budget. 299 00:24:29,460 --> 00:24:34,720 I'm done with 15th, 16th we're spending 500,000 dollars a believe. 300 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:45,020 In 1617, we will have some capital expenses and regards to we'll probably have some other vehicles 301 00:24:45,020 --> 00:24:50,440 that need to be replaced and probably some station renovations at Mainstart. 302 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:58,540 I don't think in 1617 it's going to hit the full amount that we have this year I think 303 00:24:58,540 --> 00:25:04,600 it would be a little lower but we would still have some capital expenses in 1670. 304 00:25:05,360 --> 00:25:14,440 We have a no-in last year we're talking about $500,000 in capital and in 1516 maybe $600,000 for fire. 305 00:25:15,020 --> 00:25:24,500 With this year we're talking roughly roughly 650,000 in capital because there's a couple of vehicles in the fire and the MS budget. 306 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:32,860 And then next year, 1617 is when we would probably start to do some renovations on one of the older stations. 307 00:25:33,460 --> 00:25:43,480 And by the time we have our fleet evaluated, it may be one of the more economical restruct type vehicles that need to be replaced versus an engine or ambulance. 308 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:52,460 We're working towards our overall budget with a steady process of capital each year so that we don't hit the heavy spikes. 309 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,020 How much was your capital, Mr. Chief? 310 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,760 Because I see 921, I thought you said something less than that. 311 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,440 This is fire in the MIS. 312 00:26:09,820 --> 00:26:10,900 Let me come and give them a table. 313 00:26:17,500 --> 00:26:24,600 I do know on the engine, on the combat side, we budgeted 425,000 for an engine. 314 00:26:25,420 --> 00:26:30,740 The list from last Thursday is 611,748 correct. 315 00:26:31,020 --> 00:26:31,040 Yes. 316 00:26:31,380 --> 00:26:32,680 611,000. 317 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,560 The biggest bulk of that is for an engine. 318 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:41,320 The rest of it is some of the stuff that is just associated with our capital improvements 319 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:46,800 with replacing of equipment because of the expensive falls and that over a thousand dollars. 320 00:26:47,420 --> 00:26:51,280 As I discussed at the last meeting, we have some like every other department. 321 00:26:51,540 --> 00:26:53,820 We have some IT issues we need to deal with. 322 00:26:53,820 --> 00:27:04,820 And we have one vehicle in there also that he is going to be designed to haul some of our traders with specialized equipment on it. 323 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:13,260 And also, our turnout here is on replacement of certain amounts every year, and they followed a thousand dollars. 324 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,240 So yes, our capital for this year is 611,000. 325 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:28,720 So I want to anticipate next year, 1617, that if we lower the cost, the equipment from the new people would not be there, 326 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,540 barring some kind of undersea mechanical issue. 327 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,000 I don't anticipate an engine for 1617. 328 00:27:37,300 --> 00:27:42,660 I think the one common I'd make on this is that since I wasn't in office the last couple of years, 329 00:27:42,820 --> 00:27:47,420 it was a little difficult for me to understand why we lowered the EMS, Fired EMS. 330 00:27:47,420 --> 00:27:59,080 We had it at one level. We lowered it for two years. Now we're back at the different level and I think the comment was made during some of the budget means was that we were not using the money. 331 00:28:00,020 --> 00:28:07,840 And it appeared to me if we had the money we should be refurbishing some of this equipment as we go along based on the fact of what I just heard. 332 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:16,500 And so the question would dare to the public is why do we not refurbish the equipment and continue to do this rather than lower the rates and then bring them back up. 333 00:28:16,500 --> 00:28:19,980 because now it looks like, well, it were high. 334 00:28:20,340 --> 00:28:22,440 We went low, now we're going back high. 335 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,300 So we have to have some rationale for the public 336 00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:25,760 to understand why we do that. 337 00:28:26,300 --> 00:28:28,200 And I guess that's what I'm asking right now. 338 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,880 OK, so the last two years, the board's policy 339 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,020 at that point was Evelem. 340 00:28:35,580 --> 00:28:37,220 Taxes were becoming an issue. 341 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,560 And what they were trying to do was offset the total tax bill. 342 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,420 And so there were reserves that were growing 343 00:28:43,420 --> 00:28:45,720 and fire any mass because they were not being spent 344 00:28:45,720 --> 00:29:00,740 At the time, those rates were put in place, we were looking at the five or six additional people at that point plus equipment that the former chief had, and I'm talking former former chief had put in a five-year plan, and so that's what the rates were based on. 345 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:12,320 We continued along there where the board wasn't in an agreement to hire people or replace equipment at that time because of where we were at in the economy, so they told us to hold off. 346 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,140 So we held off while you're building your reserves, you're not spending it. 347 00:29:16,260 --> 00:29:22,200 In order to balance out the tax bill, we lowered the rates to help this is since what they're 348 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,540 taxable in those two years. 349 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:31,200 At least it bears out for people to understand why you did it, because there is obviously there 350 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,880 was rational that you utilized in order to do that. 351 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:40,360 So now we're back to the subject of matter of like you're now we're trying to catch up based 352 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:45,160 of the previous economic times that we went through, is that correct statement? 353 00:29:51,010 --> 00:29:59,970 Yes, even if we weren't going to the 105, you have suggested not leaving it the same to increase. 354 00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:17,960 If we decide to go with 105, if you, well, the 105 is based on the six people, so we're actually saying if you're deciding not to go on the six people, if we decided not to, you were still suggesting an increase. 355 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,760 Yeah, 356 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:28,520 and I have said in that meeting $99 for the fire rate would be what we needed if we weren't going to go to the six people. 357 00:30:29,340 --> 00:30:40,500 I can tell you that Chief and I have worked together and cleaned up a little bit more of some of the capital improvements that were in the subject that if they're not on that PowerPoint. 358 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:49,620 This is in between when you guys saw that. So there may be a little bit more leniency that we could reduce rates a little bit more. 359 00:30:50,260 --> 00:31:05,210 And then that, unfortunately, I don't have an exact number for you, so you're going to have to go with what you're confident in, is the 90-9 because today's last day, we can't change it. 360 00:31:06,050 --> 00:31:11,210 So, yeah, I'm confident in the 99 and the 80. 361 00:31:19,110 --> 00:31:24,290 One of the things that's most difficult at tax time is when the taxpayers don't understand 362 00:31:24,290 --> 00:31:31,370 very complex issues, used to be very simple 50 years ago when the fire service was 363 00:31:31,370 --> 00:31:36,130 very pretty cut and dry, but today with all the regulations and requirements that you 364 00:31:36,130 --> 00:31:40,910 have to do with the drugs that they carry, because I come from, I feel like, I guess I have 365 00:31:40,910 --> 00:31:45,590 unfortunate to have a little bit of understanding of what it takes and what I'm concerned 366 00:31:45,590 --> 00:31:52,290 about is that when you have a staff and I feel sometimes it's inadequate staff where you 367 00:31:52,290 --> 00:31:57,910 have to have calls where you have to down a station shut down an engine or rescue unit to 368 00:31:57,910 --> 00:32:04,690 cover another call that becomes a danger of rushing you let and I think anyone that's out there 369 00:32:04,690 --> 00:32:09,810 will know that anyone that goes to Las Vegas knows that Las Vegas wasn't built on winners. 370 00:32:09,810 --> 00:32:14,670 So, if you want to play the odds and say we can continue to operate some, you know, some 371 00:32:14,670 --> 00:32:19,530 standard as far as our staffing goes, that's up to the rest of this board and myself 372 00:32:19,530 --> 00:32:20,570 to determine that. 373 00:32:20,610 --> 00:32:27,530 I would only tell you that there are issues that, unfortunately, it's very hard to pass on 374 00:32:27,530 --> 00:32:32,350 to the individual if there have not been a member of a fire service, why we run 24 hours 375 00:32:32,350 --> 00:32:32,650 years. 376 00:32:32,830 --> 00:32:37,430 Why a lot of things are done to people who don't understand, but I will tell you that if you 377 00:32:37,430 --> 00:32:43,370 cut back on a budget with road and bridges in convenient and it can be a safety issue, but the 378 00:32:43,370 --> 00:32:49,730 one thing that I want to make very, very crystal clear is that public safety, police and 379 00:32:49,730 --> 00:32:55,730 fire in EMS, or the one area is that that's your family, that's a life issue, that's a life 380 00:32:55,730 --> 00:33:02,290 quality of life, a risk that whether or not you want to take by being what the chief 381 00:33:02,290 --> 00:33:07,830 in terms of being not staffed properly in the stations, and I, for one, understand the concepts, 382 00:33:08,450 --> 00:33:12,150 understand why things have done that a lot of people don't let you've been in that business. 383 00:33:13,490 --> 00:33:19,390 And I'm not sure that I want to take the risk if the chief, we hired this chief because of the fact that he's had the experience 384 00:33:19,390 --> 00:33:25,270 to be able to look down the road and say this is what you need for the future to operate your community, 385 00:33:25,530 --> 00:33:30,810 it's safe and a safe way to protect your citizens. And that's the way I'm going to take the chief recommendation. 386 00:33:30,810 --> 00:33:35,170 I'm not going to try to second guess what he's asked for to run his department in an efficient 387 00:33:35,170 --> 00:33:40,310 safe manner. And so if he says he needs six, six people to complement the current 388 00:33:40,310 --> 00:33:45,270 staff that he has to run the department in a safe way to protect our citizens and I'm certainly 389 00:33:45,950 --> 00:33:49,350 going to take that advice. Thank you. 390 00:33:49,470 --> 00:33:50,090 You want to get in line? 391 00:33:50,290 --> 00:33:50,730 Yes. 392 00:33:52,230 --> 00:33:57,750 On our chart, the peak, time for the Miss Holles for during the day, 393 00:33:57,750 --> 00:34:06,470 ten to twelve hour period. I had asked Robbie to give me to give us figures. If we had 394 00:34:06,470 --> 00:34:11,890 a twelve hour, you didn't do this. No, then have time since he did. Okay. But he might 395 00:34:11,890 --> 00:34:19,230 be able to tell you a little bit, not in total the apartment for our shifts, but just to 396 00:34:19,230 --> 00:34:20,970 on the peak time frame. 397 00:34:21,550 --> 00:34:26,230 If we had six people working 12-hour shift 398 00:34:26,950 --> 00:34:30,390 at the end of the year, compared to working a 24-hour shift, 399 00:34:30,650 --> 00:34:31,990 why does our cost savings? 400 00:34:34,910 --> 00:34:37,550 The actual peak times, when we look at the graph, 401 00:34:37,710 --> 00:34:39,010 actually cover 14 hours. 402 00:34:39,530 --> 00:34:42,410 7 o'clock in the morning, till 9 o'clock at night, 403 00:34:43,250 --> 00:34:46,570 actual cost of the personnel in your scenario 404 00:34:46,570 --> 00:34:53,390 with six people, on the 12-hour shift versus six people, on the 24-hour shift, and it stands 405 00:34:53,390 --> 00:35:00,710 right now, based on the union contract wages and stuff, would be the same. Because the 406 00:35:00,710 --> 00:35:06,610 a firefighter, parametric, has an established year, we income, regardless of their shift, 407 00:35:06,890 --> 00:35:11,470 we work, the thing that only thing that changes is the hourly rate to make up that year 408 00:35:11,470 --> 00:35:21,410 So, six people from a salary point of view would be the same amount as on the 24-hour shifts. 409 00:35:22,490 --> 00:35:31,950 The one thing that I would say is, and I will put this out there as a fire chief, it's that, if we were completely staffed, 410 00:35:31,990 --> 00:35:39,830 as it stands right now, I've come before the board, we know that the station by the prison, they take whichever truck they take. 411 00:35:39,830 --> 00:35:45,090 All right, so we know at times that engine is not in service because they run a majority of calls. 412 00:35:45,750 --> 00:35:50,330 We know at times the second rescue of this station around the corner is not out. 413 00:35:51,010 --> 00:35:56,170 If we were fully staffed, those people were fully staffed going for a seven, 414 00:35:56,670 --> 00:36:01,150 and we were experienced with some spikes in our peak demand times, 415 00:36:01,830 --> 00:36:07,490 I would say that a polyphogram of trying it for a couple of years to see if it helps 416 00:36:07,490 --> 00:36:11,570 would be a solid prudent claim for my staff to consider. 417 00:36:12,450 --> 00:36:19,050 However, the overall scheme that we're trying to go with increased safety on the seams, 418 00:36:19,430 --> 00:36:24,870 the biggest bang for the dollar for the citizens, and all that kind of stuff, I firmly 419 00:36:24,870 --> 00:36:33,010 believe that the six new people on the 24-hour shift that puts that unit in service 24-7 420 00:36:33,010 --> 00:36:35,070 is the best option? 421 00:36:43,300 --> 00:36:46,520 Chief, I know that you're looking for it now, 422 00:36:46,540 --> 00:36:50,820 someplace and all of this stuff that we have, 423 00:36:50,820 --> 00:36:54,140 and I apologize to you on it, stuff that we'll tell you. 424 00:36:54,340 --> 00:36:56,670 Here we go. 425 00:36:57,110 --> 00:36:59,250 You can call it data, you can call it whatever it is, 426 00:36:59,530 --> 00:37:01,330 as long as we organize it here right in the UK. 427 00:37:03,350 --> 00:37:06,250 We talked a little bit about the last year 428 00:37:06,250 --> 00:37:10,910 with the sheriff's budget of comparing various counties 429 00:37:10,910 --> 00:37:17,750 with other counties. I know there was a lot of concern and comment that it's like comparing 430 00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:23,290 apples and oranges. So, this document, you provided me the day or provided the commissioners, 431 00:37:23,470 --> 00:37:29,750 what I did, I threw a lot of the stuff out with the exception of probably one or two of them. 432 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:36,340 Typically, Swanney County looks to me, populations fairly close, square mile is fairly close, 433 00:37:36,420 --> 00:37:44,320 budgets fairly close. Number calls, 7,000 calls, 43 paid, 11 volunteers and five stations. That's kind 434 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:51,140 of a fairly decent comparison in my estimation. To go look at Highlands County, that was a comment from 435 00:37:51,140 --> 00:37:59,560 one of the folks in the community about what Highlands County did. And I believe it's on here someplace 436 00:38:01,820 --> 00:38:03,080 At least I thought he was. 437 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:04,400 It was on the back page. 438 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,220 That's Henry on the back page. 439 00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:07,660 It was a separate document. 440 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:08,560 It was a second. 441 00:38:08,780 --> 00:38:09,160 Highlands. 442 00:38:10,220 --> 00:38:11,460 Highlands has a lot of balance. 443 00:38:11,460 --> 00:38:12,500 Highlands has a lot of balance. 444 00:38:12,500 --> 00:38:13,680 They still have the numbers. 445 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:15,180 A page. 446 00:38:15,180 --> 00:38:15,440 A balance. 447 00:38:15,660 --> 00:38:18,160 Your stations have a lot of fixed assets. 448 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:24,240 But the point of it was is that then I'll look over at 449 00:38:28,210 --> 00:38:29,310 Henry County. 450 00:38:30,090 --> 00:38:33,950 Populations close to square mileage is about 1200 square miles. 451 00:38:33,950 --> 00:38:41,070 versus our 7-something, their budget is about 2.5 million dollars, their power budget is about 1.0 or 452 00:38:41,070 --> 00:38:47,050 EMS budget. So there's about 3.5 million dollars, 6,000 calls. Point of it is, is that it 453 00:38:47,050 --> 00:38:54,870 seems to me that if you put 6 people on whether that's 24 hours or 12 hours and you can, it 454 00:38:54,870 --> 00:38:59,970 would match up with the project number of calls. I think the number of calls we have right now 455 00:38:59,970 --> 00:39:03,190 1,174 at the end of June. 456 00:39:04,070 --> 00:39:11,170 Yes, we're anticipating that by the end of this calendar year, we'll be in 8,254 calls. 457 00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:15,210 So when I said 10% about 2014. 458 00:39:15,910 --> 00:39:21,910 So when I did compare some of what between on 2014, 2015, the first six months, 459 00:39:22,250 --> 00:39:26,510 it might be about 9.2% in terms of increased calls. 460 00:39:26,990 --> 00:39:27,910 That's correct. 461 00:39:27,910 --> 00:39:34,570 Okay, so the moral of the story is I don't I don't personally I think that from right now 462 00:39:34,570 --> 00:39:41,610 What I see is if I compare apples and apples here is the six people probably we could we manage that 463 00:39:42,010 --> 00:39:48,410 But I will say this is that I think that unless there is significant growth in the community 464 00:39:48,410 --> 00:39:53,270 And I'm talking about population explosion of in the next couple years 465 00:39:53,270 --> 00:39:55,130 I think that's where you gonna stay 466 00:39:55,130 --> 00:40:01,410 I don't see adding people by grant sounds and waiting, you know, as we play down that picture 467 00:40:01,410 --> 00:40:05,550 about putting a grant, getting a grant, putting the people on, and then in and up picking 468 00:40:05,550 --> 00:40:10,830 up the cost of the latest time, I don't see that happening unless we start seeing a tremendous 469 00:40:10,830 --> 00:40:16,650 amount of influx of people coming in here that is going to change the dynamics and the geographical 470 00:40:16,650 --> 00:40:22,750 area that you're serving. So all I said is that I believe of all of this stuff that you've 471 00:40:22,750 --> 00:40:35,710 which I certainly appreciate it, that's been quite illuminating to see the number of calls per day, and I agree that your calls are from 7 o'clock till 9 o'clock. 7 o'clock in the morning and 9 o'clock need me. 472 00:40:36,130 --> 00:40:43,330 My personal opinion is I see that the six would probably be okay, but I would put the caveat is that that's where it goes. 473 00:40:43,870 --> 00:40:49,290 I mean, if you look at Swani County, there's that in 43, you would be sitting at 42. 474 00:40:50,710 --> 00:41:09,770 And their calls are probably in association with it, but I would consider that we would not be adding that additional people in the future unless there were some things relative to change in demographics and population and things of that sort. 475 00:41:09,770 --> 00:41:17,870 I would agree and in my staff and I would not come forward for extra people unless we had that data that's left 476 00:41:17,870 --> 00:41:18,590 against the show. 477 00:41:20,010 --> 00:41:20,150 Okay. 478 00:41:22,780 --> 00:41:23,680 For the comments? 479 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:31,220 Well, I can tell you that since I was elected in 2008, every year they have come to us for the 480 00:41:31,220 --> 00:41:38,480 safer hand for everything and we have refused to let them hire anyone until now. 481 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:44,600 In like I've said, yes, in previous meetings, from 2007 when Stationsville was opened, 482 00:41:44,820 --> 00:41:51,600 throughout the end of 2014 to 37% increase in calls with a standard population. 483 00:41:52,180 --> 00:42:00,580 There's all kinds of things that are potentially driving that, but the reality is, is that one of the things 484 00:42:00,580 --> 00:42:08,060 that is common, craft, and skills to when you go to look at staffing models as to look at 485 00:42:08,060 --> 00:42:10,740 a sustained trend not just at the level. 486 00:42:11,220 --> 00:42:19,500 And I think that over the time we're showing a sustained trend, even our transports of 27% 487 00:42:19,500 --> 00:42:21,480 at the United States period of time. 488 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:28,860 Well, I'll tell you this year with Robbie Chagin, had in the departments come in and give 489 00:42:28,860 --> 00:42:35,700 their presentation has really helped us is where you have, where you have been, and where 490 00:42:35,700 --> 00:42:40,480 you go in for the future, for the plans are for the county. It gives us an insight to 491 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:45,720 what our future holds for us. And we really appreciate a lot of work from every department 492 00:42:45,720 --> 00:42:47,660 has gone into this. 493 00:42:48,340 --> 00:42:52,800 I'm not proposing to what Commissioner Burrell said. I think he was absolutely correct. And 494 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:58,020 the reason, thus the reason we do budgets, either every year or in this case, I think it's 495 00:42:58,020 --> 00:43:03,760 year system. That's specifically the reason why, because none of us up here have a 496 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,120 crystal ball. We don't know what the future is going to hold. We don't know what, 497 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,100 you know, the new development is going to bring from overturning it. We know what 498 00:43:10,100 --> 00:43:14,160 the power plant. Those are all things. And I think, you know, the whole idea is to assess 499 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:19,220 the needs when those needs arise. So, you can't just continue to go on forever if 500 00:43:19,220 --> 00:43:28,000 your population goes up, if your mind calls go up. You certainly have to adjust your 501 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:33,340 the miconsurn about public safety and the fact that we've got to keep all the safety to 502 00:43:33,340 --> 00:43:39,120 where that needs to be to protect our citizens. And with that there's no other questions 503 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,620 I'd like to make the motion at the bills. 504 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:41,740 I'm sorry. 505 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:42,900 I'm not putting it up. 506 00:43:43,100 --> 00:43:43,520 I'm sorry. 507 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:44,020 I apologize. 508 00:43:45,900 --> 00:43:47,020 Just a comment. 509 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,100 Chief, this comes from somebody that the public yesterday. 510 00:43:53,230 --> 00:43:55,110 Apparently they were sitting in a restaurant 511 00:43:55,110 --> 00:43:59,490 you know, the fire in the MS come in and they were in the county, the fire in the 512 00:43:59,490 --> 00:44:06,390 MS people come in and they had a 911 call, brought the gurney in, and then they brought 513 00:44:06,390 --> 00:44:11,630 the gurney out with nobody on. So there's calls, you know, I think from there perspective 514 00:44:11,630 --> 00:44:18,530 is it, you know, who pays for those calls? And is there some way that if a person refuses 515 00:44:18,530 --> 00:44:26,870 is to go to the hospital or to medical facility. Is there some way for that person to still 516 00:44:26,870 --> 00:44:30,810 get charged? If the fact that individual has refused to go, even though they've called 517 00:44:30,810 --> 00:44:34,630 911, that's the question from the public that I had no end for. 518 00:44:35,010 --> 00:44:40,350 Yes, there is a mechanism that we have a quite a bit of issues with like that. We currently 519 00:44:40,350 --> 00:44:47,410 have an ordinance in place that allows for the bill of the charge of $150 for treatment 520 00:44:47,410 --> 00:44:54,350 rendered effective use transport. That is one of my tasks and upcoming months is to look 521 00:44:54,350 --> 00:44:59,570 at the EMS coordinates to see if our rates are where we're at. 522 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:12,420 There is a couple of changes in there. I know that we may, because of statutory objectives. But yes, there is a mechanism for that, but when a person is treated and refused this transfer. 523 00:45:13,780 --> 00:45:19,120 Do we use that? Are we, are we building these people? No, sir. We don't. That's something. 524 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:20,500 There's the problem. 525 00:45:20,500 --> 00:45:20,600 There's the problem. 526 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:21,700 That's something that's interesting. 527 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,160 It's going to be implemented. 528 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:24,560 It's going to be implemented. 529 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:29,860 I have meetings with all my staff coming up in the month of December so that we can give 530 00:45:29,860 --> 00:45:31,720 them the parameters as when it's going to occur. 531 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:34,740 How about October 1? 532 00:45:36,060 --> 00:45:40,600 It'll be in place before then, but I have opportunity where I'll be physically talking 533 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:45,500 with each employee and when we're in a time, so that when I get out of the policy, everybody 534 00:45:45,500 --> 00:45:46,940 gets it at one time. 535 00:45:47,540 --> 00:45:47,760 Okay. 536 00:45:47,940 --> 00:45:48,540 Thank you. 537 00:45:48,540 --> 00:45:51,060 Can I just go ahead and go ahead, Margaret, please? 538 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:58,820 When you get to a call and the patient refuses to get to the hospital, can you still build 539 00:45:58,820 --> 00:46:03,940 their insurance company for the call and the patient's pay if the patient refuses? 540 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:10,580 I understand from our billing company that that fee for refusal after treatment is not covered 541 00:46:10,580 --> 00:46:12,540 by insurance or Medicare or Medicaid. 542 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:14,080 The patient will have illness. 543 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:21,030 So then what you're going to come up to is whether they pay it and will how much right after you're going to have so we may be charging and never receiving it 544 00:46:21,940 --> 00:46:23,740 Why does we don't charge it we 545 00:46:27,140 --> 00:46:28,400 I had someone 546 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,860 Here that story of make for my personal experience where 547 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:36,320 They called them as, came to the house, did not. 548 00:46:36,860 --> 00:46:39,380 They decided that the person did not need to go anywhere. 549 00:46:40,260 --> 00:46:41,960 And he said, I don't know why it didn't get built. 550 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,760 Because obviously the county had expense involved. 551 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:50,060 They came, spent 30 minutes with me, didn't send me a bill. 552 00:46:50,740 --> 00:46:53,720 And he said, I thought that was kind of an interesting thing that we, 553 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,620 that we, county didn't expect to collect some kind of money on a response. 554 00:46:57,620 --> 00:47:00,760 But I can assure you that's only to do this. 555 00:47:01,780 --> 00:47:05,640 Well, I will say this is that there's a lot of concern 556 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:09,840 with adding cost and adding people and wherever you'd be doing. 557 00:47:10,460 --> 00:47:13,460 The issue is, it's that when you're out 558 00:47:13,460 --> 00:47:16,060 of expending dollars to go out and fix somebody else or 559 00:47:16,060 --> 00:47:19,880 a 991 call, somewhere along the line, 560 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:27,600 we need to charge those people because the individual 561 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:31,700 another individual that's called about a half a dozen times, even if there are husbands 562 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:36,760 sneezes, they're called for 911 call and the person and you folks have to be dispatched 563 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:42,340 out there. And so at some given time, that's a lot of expense, you know, back to the taxpayers 564 00:47:42,340 --> 00:47:48,480 would know retrieval, not your points well taken, probably, is it? Yeah, we may not get something 565 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,640 but we don't build it, we may not know. Right, it certainly wasn't meant to say that, not to 566 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,840 build, I completely agree with building and I'm glad that the ordinance has it in there and 567 00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:02,500 should be using it and the person might call and I mean even if I can't afford to pay the 568 00:48:02,500 --> 00:48:07,060 whole thing that they pay part of it. Well, they may not even call and they may not 569 00:48:07,060 --> 00:48:12,320 call and they may not be calling. That's the best way to call and you if they, unless they have 570 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:17,180 something seriously, they're going to be charged each time they call. Right. They may think 571 00:48:17,180 --> 00:48:23,460 and I'll tell you Chief, that will go a long ways in terms of some folks when they take a look 572 00:48:23,460 --> 00:48:26,820 but the additional dollars here and how they're being spent, 573 00:48:27,240 --> 00:48:28,760 at least they're saying, well, some people, 574 00:48:28,780 --> 00:48:32,740 these people are getting charged even though they may not be 575 00:48:32,740 --> 00:48:36,140 paying an M.S. guys, or a fire tax. 576 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,840 If I just, I'll make this real brief, 577 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,380 because I've seen this happen many times in 21 years, 578 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:44,940 and it happened at the airport. 579 00:48:45,140 --> 00:48:46,780 The gentleman didn't take his insulin the morning. 580 00:48:46,900 --> 00:48:47,760 He passed out. 581 00:48:48,220 --> 00:48:51,940 Someone else called 911 when he gets what that time they got there. 582 00:48:51,940 --> 00:48:57,140 because what is new and fine is no need to be transported. So you're going to build that 583 00:48:57,140 --> 00:49:02,840 person when in fact as he never called for EMS, someone else did. So there's a lot of variables 584 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:07,640 that take place in. And that goes back to what I was explaining. Many people make a lot of comments, 585 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,840 you know, why do the firefighters go to the store and the truck. It's because they're on duty 586 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:17,340 24 hours. You know, there's a reason for it. But unfortunately, we don't have the ability to answer 587 00:49:17,340 --> 00:49:21,920 all those questions that come up. End of legitimate questions. And I'm sure if you ask a firefight 588 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:26,640 I dare they'll tell you or please answer why they do what they do, but most people won't 589 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:31,000 they'll write a letter to the editor or they'll make a comment on Facebook or something because 590 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,440 they don't understand the intricate work, inner workings of a public safety. 591 00:49:35,780 --> 00:49:39,860 And I think that's important to understand as there's many times when a person has an issue 592 00:49:39,860 --> 00:49:40,960 and they come out of it. 593 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,500 They don't want to be transferred to hospital and curl all those costs. 594 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:49,420 Many times if it's not a life-threatening transport, they'll go BLS, call in a private ambulance. 595 00:49:49,420 --> 00:49:51,260 So they're going to get built twice. 596 00:49:51,820 --> 00:49:55,760 That's the whole purpose that we have fire rescue is because they pay for it. 597 00:49:55,820 --> 00:49:57,220 People pay for it in their taxes. 598 00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:59,120 So now it's a double taxation. 599 00:49:59,700 --> 00:50:03,220 They could look at it like double taxation when you run a call. 600 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:07,020 And then they get a bill for what they're already paying for on their tax bill. 601 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,200 So it's an understanding. 602 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:13,000 It's an issue of people understanding how the system works. 603 00:50:13,180 --> 00:50:15,420 And maybe we haven't done a good enough job 604 00:50:15,420 --> 00:50:20,680 explain to people and educate them as how the system actually works and it's finite presentation. 605 00:50:21,240 --> 00:50:25,920 We use in your example, I always expect a change. 606 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,580 If we went out to the airport and found the individual had a situation, 607 00:50:30,980 --> 00:50:35,080 I would expect to achieve to make that determination, whoever's on duty to make that determination, 608 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,380 whether or not to build that individual or not. 609 00:50:37,660 --> 00:50:45,400 Because it's got to be some managerial process that they exert relative to the process by which they go out on. 610 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:52,140 Now, when you talk about taxpayers paying, there's a lot of people don't pay this. 611 00:50:52,380 --> 00:50:58,840 The businesses here pay this the majority of this fee and the people who own homes pay the 612 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:02,780 majority of this fee and there's a lot of people who don't pay this stuff but they're 613 00:51:02,780 --> 00:51:07,260 and those people are the ones or the percentage of those people are the ones that they 614 00:51:07,260 --> 00:51:07,540 will. 615 00:51:07,540 --> 00:51:14,040 Well, these 9-1-1 call, they call 9-1-1, add a flash and guess what, we're out, that's not 616 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:19,400 of dollars, whatever it costs to run that amulet, so the process about billing them is the 617 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,120 only way you're going to be able to actively treat people. 618 00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:28,380 And the managed URL process that we've given the chief, as him being the department head, 619 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,960 is part of his process to be able to manage that. 620 00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:32,520 That's the way I would look at it. 621 00:51:32,580 --> 00:51:33,760 Well, and that's a fine analogy. 622 00:51:34,020 --> 00:51:38,460 What I'm telling you is that every case stands on its own merit, everyone is different. 623 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,480 So then you get into a situation where you're trying to cherry-pick which ones apply and 624 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,780 No, and you can do that. And I can understand, you know, that you have someone that comes 625 00:51:47,780 --> 00:51:51,960 down, you know, that doesn't, there's not a resident here, either full-time or part-time, 626 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:57,120 comes down, has an emergency. Yes, there has to be a mechanism in place to be able to recover 627 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:02,640 those funds. And I certainly can occur with that. But it's not an easy situation to figure 628 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:08,280 out which one should pay, which one shouldn't pay if they're paying it, you know, in attacks 629 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:13,320 as business residential, they all pay it. But what I think the biggest mistake is, is people 630 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:20,020 don't understand that police, fire, AMS, or like when you buy insurance when you car. 631 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,960 You pray to God, you never have to use it. 632 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:27,980 But when you do need it, you don't want the general, necessarily, you want a good, reputable 633 00:52:27,980 --> 00:52:29,980 company, this dare and train. 634 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:37,640 We need to take care of your needs at any given time, and I think when people look at it from the angle of its an insurance policy, I think they start to understand hurricane. 635 00:52:38,300 --> 00:52:44,960 You know, you buy insurance policy. She has to say, okay, I was not going to blow away, but if it does, you want to have someone there to be able to repair it and you go with it. 636 00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:51,440 And I think that's the mindset that people have to understand is you're actually buying an insurance policy and how good of insurance policy do you want. 637 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:56,640 Well, as we address the ordinance in regards to the bill bills for the treatment and 638 00:52:56,640 --> 00:53:01,120 the refusals, we'll make sure the policies fair and equitable to the best of our bill. 639 00:53:04,700 --> 00:53:09,610 I have two final comments and then we'll open public here. 640 00:53:11,820 --> 00:53:15,660 And the information that you gave us, one of the questions you asked was about variable staffing 641 00:53:15,660 --> 00:53:26,270 or, you know, if you gave us at least eight, I looked at, there were two of them to say 642 00:53:26,270 --> 00:53:32,570 they didn't do variable staffing or the other six said yes they do, so they had shifts 643 00:53:32,570 --> 00:53:39,670 other than 24 hours shifts to supplement their volume or their high volume times rather 644 00:53:39,670 --> 00:53:46,450 than scheduling around a clock. So obviously that's option works in a lot of places and what 645 00:53:46,450 --> 00:53:52,030 understanding of you is, is that the union agreement does not allow that or it would be too 646 00:53:52,030 --> 00:54:01,010 costly to do that. And we're going to talk about that later in the day. So it's obvious that 647 00:54:01,010 --> 00:54:07,850 majority of those eight entities, some are Mercedes, some are McCown, and so forth. But they did 648 00:54:07,850 --> 00:54:14,430 use variable staffing to meet those high volume times to, and it might be that if you have 649 00:54:14,430 --> 00:54:22,250 in times of 70 and 70 and you might have four people on that year for rather than two people on that year. 650 00:54:22,610 --> 00:54:27,490 You put two people on a shift around a clock that still might not fix your problem. 651 00:54:28,150 --> 00:54:34,210 My last comment is, you know, over the years some of us have been 652 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:41,660 encouraged the sheriff's department to look at his expenses. 653 00:54:42,460 --> 00:54:57,520 And I thought it interesting comparison, I looked at Fire EMS in Maine, that's all three of the entities, and compared it to the corrections budget for the last five years or four years plus the coming year. 654 00:54:58,220 --> 00:55:01,880 Corrections is gone from almost $6 million to $5.3 million. 655 00:55:02,940 --> 00:55:09,580 Fire EMS has gone from $4.4 million to $5.7 million. The exact reverse of what the sheriff 656 00:55:09,580 --> 00:55:15,720 has been able to accomplish in correction. So we're now talking about spending about 657 00:55:15,720 --> 00:55:21,460 half a million dollars more than correction departments now spending. And also, at the current 658 00:55:21,460 --> 00:55:28,440 budget proposed budget for 1516, it's a million dollars more than prior year, actual, 659 00:55:31,860 --> 00:55:31,860 not 660 00:55:31,860 --> 00:55:37,340 look, it didn't look, it capital didn't consider capital. It's a million dollars more than 661 00:55:37,340 --> 00:55:38,840 the current budget year we have. 662 00:55:41,530 --> 00:55:46,490 So that's what I'm concerned about. And after all, this 663 00:55:46,490 --> 00:55:53,690 $15 a household is $750,000 we're going to take out of people's pocket in this community. 664 00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:58,360 It's coming out of their pockets, man, not, 665 00:56:00,580 --> 00:56:02,880 and that's more of the concern. We're taking 666 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:09,460 additional $750,000 in money out of people's pocket in this community, that they might spend, 667 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:10,360 rather than us, man. 668 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:13,740 Go ahead and open a public hearing. 669 00:56:14,780 --> 00:56:20,720 This is regards to the annual rate resolution for, in fire safety, 670 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,580 as it is a non-advalorum 671 00:56:25,580 --> 00:56:26,060 assessment. 672 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:34,380 And the detail is in the budget pack, I mean, in the agenda packet, as anyone here 673 00:56:34,380 --> 00:56:35,800 to speak on that. 674 00:56:41,860 --> 00:56:47,620 Last call anybody wish to speak on it.

We're asking as we did last year in the so-called 753 01:02:20,410 --> 01:02:26,390 being a general practice moving forward that those money's collected be used and utilized 754 01:02:26,390 --> 01:02:34,530 in the back in the sheriff's budget. We are on track of where we should be as you see the 755 01:02:34,530 --> 01:02:40,590 miscommissioning gives you those financial reports. And we are probably anticipating to have about 756 01:02:40,590 --> 01:02:46,750 50,000 of our left of the shares, 14 million dollars budget at the end of the year.

It was part of their wellness committee committee and the teachers would sign in 998 01:17:23,510 --> 01:17:27,050 and then at the end of the month I would submit that paperwork to the school board. So this year 999 01:17:27,050 --> 01:17:32,990 we did not have that revenue from the school system. And the school has the pool from what 1000 01:17:32,990 --> 01:17:39,730 morning till noon or after how late does the school have the school system has exclusive use during 1001 01:17:39,730 --> 01:17:44,510 the school day and it depends on each individual school as to the time that they are there. 1002 01:17:44,810 --> 01:17:49,910 Currently right now I have central elementary. Their first bus gets there at 9.35. They're 1003 01:17:49,910 --> 01:17:54,830 there to a little after 11. September 8th I pick up yearling middle school where there will be 1004 01:17:54,830 --> 01:17:59,170 their wiss central so it'll be a little later than the afternoon. Each individual school determines 1005 01:17:59,170 --> 01:18:04,610 the time that they are there to utilize the facility. As well as high school swim team is also 1006 01:18:04,610 --> 01:18:10,130 practicing right now at 5 a.m. and then they will have afternoon swim meets, there's actually 1007 01:18:10,130 --> 01:18:14,590 one next week. On Wednesday, although I received messages this morning, they need to change 1008 01:18:14,590 --> 01:18:21,230 that date to Thursday. So that would be taking place in the afternoon as well. So I'm for them 1009 01:18:21,230 --> 01:18:27,430 to extend their program, however, is going to be a scheduling thing on my end to keep it consistent 1010 01:18:27,430 --> 01:18:32,890 with the times that they're able to come and participate in the program.

And it's kind of nice on one side because when the 1089 01:25:21,570 --> 01:25:23,150 because they want the business. 1090 01:25:26,670 --> 01:25:31,870 As I mentioned, 70 businesses, they're both local and out of town, because I'm constantly 1091 01:25:31,870 --> 01:25:34,810 looking for recruiting businesses to come in. 1092 01:25:35,270 --> 01:25:42,310 One of the recent ones was Brian Mayhol at the city contacted me and said that they have 1093 01:25:42,310 --> 01:25:47,430 a restaurant that's poking around, looking at all the Chobit County, and would I mind stepping 1094 01:25:47,430 --> 01:25:50,270 in and working with them, and as a decorsionate. 1095 01:25:50,270 --> 01:25:53,330 So it ended up being a attorney out of Atlanta. 1096 01:25:54,630 --> 01:26:02,250 So I was able to supply demographics, the FDOT traffic study, 1097 01:26:02,590 --> 01:26:07,190 I included Matt Schelling, Ocachobe County Central Location, 1098 01:26:07,650 --> 01:26:10,490 as well as available sites, and answered a whole 1099 01:26:10,490 --> 01:26:12,090 myriad of other questions. 1100 01:26:12,810 --> 01:26:16,570 Right down to have to have a refrigerated dumpster. 1101 01:26:16,570 --> 01:26:23,450 You know, but those are the little things that add up at the end to four of the picture. 1102 01:26:24,710 --> 01:26:27,710 Fortunately, everything went well and that committed to it. 1103 01:26:27,730 --> 01:26:40,170 We know that it's XB's restaurant and they're going to be starting, you know, the building process on the property of West of the host office pretty soon. 1104 01:26:40,170 --> 01:26:42,130 But that's just one example. 1105 01:26:42,510 --> 01:26:46,590 I have a lot of those that I'm balancing right now trying to keep up. 1106 01:26:49,380 --> 01:26:53,720 The other thing that I'm kind of proud of is we've... 1107 01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:58,620 I've been working with IRSC to develop incubators out of the college. 1108 01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:07,840 Ocachoic campuses, I believe, the only one of the IRSC network where they don't offer incubators. 1109 01:27:09,060 --> 01:27:15,640 So, this incubator is for a bakery company in the kitchen at the wheels in the center. 1110 01:27:16,060 --> 01:27:23,040 We're excited about it, of course, the bakery company is excited about it, and IRSC is excited about it. 1111 01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:31,860 Because they just went through a nice expansion and put a beautiful lamp in for air conditioning, electrical things like that, 1112 01:27:31,860 --> 01:27:38,360 This will open the door to the local campus to put more incubators in. 1113 01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:40,420 So that's what we're trying to do there. 1114 01:27:43,810 --> 01:27:48,830 I was also able to get a $50,000 USBA grant, 1115 01:27:49,310 --> 01:27:53,510 which will enable the chamber to set up a revolving loan fund. 1116 01:27:54,350 --> 01:27:58,610 This loan fund is designed to be able to give 1117 01:27:59,850 --> 01:28:09,110 micro loans of $5,000 to start ups and small businesses wanting to expand. Small business 1118 01:28:09,110 --> 01:28:13,190 and this is under five employees and under a million dollars in revenue. 1119 01:28:15,390 --> 01:28:16,170 This is the 1120 01:28:16,170 --> 01:28:20,730 little shot in the arm that they need to get over the hump and get started and start 1121 01:28:20,730 --> 01:28:26,670 getting revenue. From that point on they're producing our own revenue so then we're out 1122 01:28:26,670 --> 01:28:34,090 picture. They do repay it to $200 or most payments back, and this is what's going to perpetuate 1123 01:28:34,090 --> 01:28:35,510 this far in the future. 1124 01:28:54,160 --> 01:29:00,220 On this slide in your agenda packet, you have a two-page document 1125 01:29:00,220 --> 01:29:09,840 which explains a lot of the deliverables in much more depth. I put a couple important bullet points 1126 01:29:10,580 --> 01:29:18,800 on the screen because it's part of the whole movement of moving this process forward. 1127 01:29:20,580 --> 01:29:28,280 The last line isn't in the packet, but I think when you read that, you'll see that 1128 01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:35,740 that is the bottom line that we're all looking for, because I help the business environment 1129 01:29:35,740 --> 01:29:43,240 creates lifestyle opportunities, everybody does well, and a big portion of everything that 1130 01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:51,920 I do in this is to add money into the tax roll copper so that we can do other things, 1131 01:29:52,140 --> 01:29:55,940 keep the roads maintained, big the ditches, all of this stuff. 1132 01:29:59,280 --> 01:29:59,740 John, fine. 1133 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:02,120 Are you wrong that page? Can I ask you a question? 1134 01:30:04,300 --> 01:30:10,260 Can doubt that at least two sites selected visits for moving the county? Are you doing that now? 1135 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:12,180 Or is that? 1136 01:30:12,460 --> 01:30:18,500 Not in a conservative effort. I go to a lot of different things. I'm going to a 1137 01:30:18,500 --> 01:30:26,500 Relators panel. I think the first part of the month. But I attend things like that to 1138 01:30:26,500 --> 01:30:30,180 in more information and bring those resources back. 1139 01:30:30,360 --> 01:30:33,600 Because one to the job, the side selectors, 1140 01:30:33,700 --> 01:30:38,520 and that is how you recruit, attempt to recruit when you business it. 1141 01:30:38,580 --> 01:30:39,660 My correct. 1142 01:30:41,180 --> 01:30:44,080 Prior to my being elected, we did do the site selectors. 1143 01:30:44,100 --> 01:30:45,140 Why did you do that? 1144 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:50,680 The John is basically taking the functions that I used to do relative to going to the site 1145 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:56,200 collectors working with Freddie in the F-R-E-D-C or on the coast, and he'll be doing those 1146 01:30:56,200 --> 01:31:00,560 particular sites like a visit to one coming up in Chicago. I'm very shortly. 1147 01:31:01,020 --> 01:31:03,340 I knew you did. I didn't know if he could take it out. 1148 01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:06,040 He's basically taking that response to that. 1149 01:31:06,580 --> 01:31:10,500 The lot of what I had to do was one on the moon when I find... 1150 01:31:10,500 --> 01:31:16,480 Oh, you do a great job. I know the business is contact you. I just didn't know how. 1151 01:31:16,620 --> 01:31:19,280 You went out to recruit new businesses for our area. 1152 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:27,940 Well, as I find on my reach out to them, so, you know, I like to build an extensive resource list 1153 01:31:27,940 --> 01:31:38,380 because a certain building out of the airport may not suit everybody, but it could suit one person. 1154 01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:44,100 Like right now, I'm going through a research and now a solar panel company and the manufacturer. 1155 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:48,400 Because I like to get more clean manufacturing into... 1156 01:31:52,720 --> 01:32:03,760 This has kind of been overview of both entities' roles in the community and to make this project move forward. 1157 01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:22,220 The business development and assistant coordinator position is very critical to moving all of this forward as far as being a primary focal point. 1158 01:32:22,220 --> 01:32:28,320 for not only businesses looking at the county, but also as the counties 1159 01:32:28,320 --> 01:32:33,200 are up lay as on to the businesses. So that entails getting more 1160 01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:39,020 active with all the different departments, you know, working with the 1161 01:32:39,020 --> 01:32:46,180 department heads, getting that type of information. The other important part is 1162 01:32:46,180 --> 01:32:51,360 delivering a consistent message and that would be all the background people 1163 01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:56,300 because now I've done it long enough where I know exactly the piece of paper that gets their 1164 01:32:56,300 --> 01:32:56,820 attention. 1165 01:32:57,640 --> 01:33:01,860 And I'll tell you the FDA who team a traffic study has been a big help. 1166 01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:11,720 When we can show 32,000 vehicles going east and west on Highway 70, it counters them looking 1167 01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:16,760 at the population and saying, well they don't even have 40,000 people, how are they doing 1168 01:33:16,760 --> 01:33:22,800 sustain my business, though we're going to do it because of the Chobes, the central point 1169 01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:29,480 at the top of the lake, everybody can find it and it's a stop-off point. So like in the 1170 01:33:29,480 --> 01:33:37,160 case of the restaurant, the 40,000 residents that we have is only part of their clientele. 1171 01:33:37,220 --> 01:33:42,580 They're looking at stop and all those cars risen by their front door every day. And that's what 1172 01:33:42,580 --> 01:33:48,320 want to do and that was one of the selling points that got him. So the 1173 01:33:53,700 --> 01:33:54,960 roles are very important 1174 01:33:54,960 --> 01:34:05,540 that the county's role in this is the referral of business contacts to me from all the different 1175 01:34:05,540 --> 01:34:14,920 departments. And it could be the tax collector that just issued a business license. Once she 1176 01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:19,140 does that everything stops and we don't need that time. 1177 01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:27,220 I want to be able to help ensure their success and maybe coordinate some different things 1178 01:34:27,220 --> 01:34:33,800 with them, you know, according with coordinating with career source, IRSC, on worker training. 1179 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:39,320 Fortunately, I have an extensive bank round in that, so that's an easy one for me. 1180 01:34:39,620 --> 01:34:44,840 And they're very receptable to it because part of their funding hinges on doing these 1181 01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:47,420 but things anyway so it's a good match. 1182 01:34:50,870 --> 01:34:54,830 That gets that kind of help explain the open door 1183 01:34:54,830 --> 01:35:02,210 policy because I think we really need to open up communications and I think working with all 1184 01:35:02,210 --> 01:35:08,910 the department has not only can I help them but they could certainly help me in economic development 1185 01:35:08,910 --> 01:35:19,970 as well. So that communication is critical. We're also asking for a $30,000 commitment from 1186 01:35:19,970 --> 01:35:26,870 the county to help supplement this. Because I can tell you right now, I put in probably 1187 01:35:26,870 --> 01:35:33,770 60 to 80 hours a week and we just really need to help supplement that. Because it's a lot 1188 01:35:33,770 --> 01:35:35,750 of expense time. 1189 01:35:41,310 --> 01:35:48,230 So I think all of this creates a plan that's workable for everybody. 1190 01:35:49,370 --> 01:35:55,530 So the county is not directly involved in trying to recruit businesses in here. We don't 1191 01:35:55,530 --> 01:36:01,010 want to get burned like saying it was the county house in the past laying out big bucks 1192 01:36:01,010 --> 01:36:07,070 for projects or collapse on them. I think, you know, I'm a firm believer in economic 1193 01:36:07,070 --> 01:36:11,150 during gardening, you know, growing your own jobs and incomes at home. 1194 01:36:11,930 --> 01:36:18,610 The other goal that I want to really pursue is raising the wages, because now what happens 1195 01:36:18,610 --> 01:36:23,970 as a site select or pulls up the demographics, they see the median household income is 1196 01:36:23,970 --> 01:36:30,270 30,000, and their mind that's two people work, and they flip the switch to off saying there's 1197 01:36:30,270 --> 01:36:31,790 no skilled workforce there. 1198 01:36:32,110 --> 01:36:33,070 We don't get a shot. 1199 01:36:33,070 --> 01:36:43,070 So what we want to do is open that door and as part of the consistent message which will include employee employer employee training. 1200 01:36:44,490 --> 01:36:47,330 So I think with your support we can move forward. 1201 01:36:48,030 --> 01:36:59,690 I think it would be a great combination for both the chamber and the county because the chamber is 100% dedicated to economic development. 1202 01:36:59,690 --> 01:37:06,270 that's what the chamber is. And we've made a strong point of separating all the different 1203 01:37:06,270 --> 01:37:11,090 entities. So there's no confusion between what this one does and what that one does. 1204 01:37:13,130 --> 01:37:14,810 So, any questions? 1205 01:37:16,430 --> 01:37:22,970 Okay, the many for the chamber does it come from the businesses in town or do you give any grant 1206 01:37:22,970 --> 01:37:26,750 money to help or how do you run this. 1207 01:37:27,070 --> 01:37:27,710 I know. 1208 01:37:27,710 --> 01:37:28,670 I know. 1209 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:36,500 And now I pay a membership. Is that from your salary or to the salary reserve? 1210 01:37:37,620 --> 01:37:38,400 Let me help you, Mel. 1211 01:37:39,240 --> 01:37:43,480 Yes. The membership is, the membership money is displayed in their pays, the executive director 1212 01:37:43,480 --> 01:37:48,240 that runs the Chamberlain itself relative to the business, you know, what we do as a 1213 01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:53,660 Chamberlain. The business development and the business assistance group has been all volunteer 1214 01:37:53,660 --> 01:38:01,980 about myself, part of my election, and in John Gerny, and Bill Dover, and some other folks. 1215 01:38:03,300 --> 01:38:09,160 So the money that you provide as a membership goes to play the executive director's 1216 01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:13,780 position by which she is not involved in the business development piece so that we have 1217 01:38:13,780 --> 01:38:19,040 separated that due to the fact of the confidentiality of working with these particular companies. 1218 01:38:20,320 --> 01:38:24,640 I think John, John, John doesn't get a salary. 1219 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:28,640 Only, there's only one salary in Chamber. 1220 01:38:28,700 --> 01:38:29,960 That's the executive director. 1221 01:38:30,500 --> 01:38:33,840 John's time, my time, bills, time was all donated. 1222 01:38:34,700 --> 01:38:38,140 And trying to do things and bring in any companies that we brought into this community. 1223 01:38:40,270 --> 01:38:44,410 At one time, that was what tremendous burden. 1224 01:38:45,470 --> 01:38:48,270 But with everything that we have in place now, 1225 01:38:48,270 --> 01:38:51,610 it is literally more than a full-time job. 1226 01:38:52,750 --> 01:38:59,850 I'm a level of 30, 12 o'clock every night, answering emails, coordinating things. 1227 01:39:00,150 --> 01:39:05,170 Fortunately, over the years, I've been able to make a lot of great contacts by Sherry 1228 01:39:05,170 --> 01:39:08,230 Martin at the DOE. 1229 01:39:09,790 --> 01:39:15,990 I think that things like that are very valuable, especially when I can bring somebody like 1230 01:39:15,990 --> 01:39:22,090 at the table, and Sherry has agreed to come down and meet with entities that were working 1231 01:39:22,090 --> 01:39:30,390 on to, and she also brings enterprise floor, but with her too, which is a huge thing. 1232 01:39:30,970 --> 01:39:35,690 But I've got some other projects that I'm working on now that are that are monsters, and 1233 01:39:35,690 --> 01:39:38,370 you know, we need to keep moving forward on all of that. 1234 01:39:38,870 --> 01:39:45,890 So I like to be in a position where I can come to the commissioners and say, this is what's 1235 01:39:45,890 --> 01:39:53,670 on. This is what the company is looking for. What can we do to solve that? And then bring in your 1236 01:39:53,670 --> 01:39:59,710 department heads to find out what they can contribute. And then once we have that that we can get into 1237 01:39:59,710 --> 01:40:05,630 that final deal, playing and set up the meetings and all that. So I think that's kind of where we're 1238 01:40:05,630 --> 01:40:15,630 headed because Ocachobe County is starting to get a lot of attention. John Kiki. I want to make 1239 01:40:15,630 --> 01:40:20,130 option be out of line of what actually is. What I see is, first of all, I've never seen 1240 01:40:20,130 --> 01:40:23,890 the county that was successful at the time that they didn't have an active workable 1241 01:40:23,890 --> 01:40:28,930 chamber. And what I see is the chamber basically relates to people as they open up a new 1242 01:40:28,930 --> 01:40:33,970 business, then they go to the chamber and the chamber directs them, helps them publicity, whatever. 1243 01:40:35,010 --> 01:40:39,630 But the position of the business development is actually to get those businesses to come here 1244 01:40:39,630 --> 01:40:45,150 in the first place. So that's the delineation I see between the two. And we've had discussions 1245 01:40:45,150 --> 01:41:13,790 And everything I've asked you about you followed up on as with the, the, the, the sort of things because with the, you know, the new power plant coming and they're going to have a solar field. I said, well, what a great thing if we have a solar panel of company come in and use one of the buildings we have in industrial park. That's why I'm so happy to see us moving forward on the mitigation problems with set of size there. But what I also do is I know that like a tourist development council, that they do exactly that. They bring in tourism. 1246 01:41:14,230 --> 01:41:24,990 But I think it's also important to have a second phase of that or an equal phase of that to be business development to come in on actually open up businesses because the two are so incredibly important. 1247 01:41:25,110 --> 01:41:30,450 One is a thing where we have a lot of influx of people come and go, come and go, which is good. 1248 01:41:30,830 --> 01:41:34,990 But the other part of us is the sustainability over the years that they have businesses to come in to be attractive. 1249 01:41:35,850 --> 01:41:40,870 And I think that that position, to me it's so incredibly important because I've seen it work. 1250 01:41:40,870 --> 01:41:45,350 If you have a good business development yet, good chamber, your county here, your city's going to grow. 1251 01:41:46,170 --> 01:41:51,090 Looking at the mind, a lot of these companies are very secretive about what they're doing. 1252 01:41:51,670 --> 01:41:56,570 Sure. So you'll have Joe Blow walking to the chamber and simply ask the question, 1253 01:41:56,850 --> 01:42:00,790 where can I get more information on doing business in Ocachova County? 1254 01:42:00,870 --> 01:42:02,390 That's when I get the phone record. 1255 01:42:03,410 --> 01:42:07,870 I mean, I don't think the guys left the room before Mariahs called me on the phone 1256 01:42:07,870 --> 01:42:11,990 of this contact information or hers in the case of the Atlantic journey. 1257 01:42:13,530 --> 01:42:17,430 So, you know, that's where somebody needs to jump in right then. 1258 01:42:17,970 --> 01:42:21,030 And even if they don't want to give you the company name, that's fine. 1259 01:42:21,070 --> 01:42:27,330 I just need to know the nitty-gritty of what you're looking for, kind of what the business 1260 01:42:27,330 --> 01:42:28,210 is about. 1261 01:42:28,650 --> 01:42:29,910 What are you lacking? 1262 01:42:30,030 --> 01:42:31,410 What can I do for you? 1263 01:42:31,570 --> 01:42:36,630 You know, I want to be the guy standing on the ground that they know they can contact 1264 01:42:36,630 --> 01:42:42,390 to do the web out from there, and it's worked extremely well, so that's what we're going for. 1265 01:42:42,810 --> 01:42:52,650 So this $30,000 is that to have go to the job, that's not a selector. Is this what this is for? 1266 01:42:53,070 --> 01:43:00,630 Well, it's basically for my salary, so that I'm not a county employee as such. 1267 01:43:00,630 --> 01:43:07,070 I mean, it's a hell of a thing in a good position where I don't need a retirement plan, 1268 01:43:07,130 --> 01:43:15,730 I don't need health insurance, you know, so it is what it is, but I definitely need to 1269 01:43:15,730 --> 01:43:23,130 help, and I need to do even more than I'm doing now, and it's just financially not able 1270 01:43:23,130 --> 01:43:24,530 to do that. 1271 01:43:25,770 --> 01:43:29,670 In these meetings, you know, I've got another meeting coming up in North Palm Beach, 1272 01:43:29,670 --> 01:43:32,250 that's going to be critical in our control of each. 1273 01:43:33,030 --> 01:43:37,890 But I'm very good at looking partners together, like the FPO Power Plan. 1274 01:43:38,030 --> 01:43:41,890 I'm cooking them up with the G-A-Project that's going to be a nice partnership. 1275 01:43:42,170 --> 01:43:47,690 They're going to work out for each other because the G is going for 100% green certification, 1276 01:43:47,710 --> 01:43:49,950 including producing their own power. 1277 01:43:50,390 --> 01:43:55,510 That access will be sold to that FPO plant right there to go online. 1278 01:43:55,510 --> 01:44:03,010 vice versa if there is some kind of a catastrophe, that power plant will literally have an extension 1279 01:44:03,010 --> 01:44:05,050 forward into a GIF or Maca. 1280 01:44:06,010 --> 01:44:11,730 So those are the things that keep businesses moving forward when you can give them those resources 1281 01:44:11,730 --> 01:44:13,330 and the circumstances. 1282 01:44:14,410 --> 01:44:19,890 Well, the other thing to you, John, is because you mentioned that, that also has a component 1283 01:44:19,890 --> 01:44:24,070 of, we know that we're talking about water quality going into the lake. 1284 01:44:24,070 --> 01:44:32,170 What this project you're talking about the water quality is held clean past off drinkable back into the system and back into the late 1285 01:44:32,170 --> 01:44:43,310 So those are the kinds of things that the job that you do is so invaluable to the county and for what the return of that 30 thousand dollars would bring to this county 1286 01:44:43,310 --> 01:44:49,070 It's almost laughable, you know, and you can't certainly can't ask someone to work as hard as you've worked 1287 01:44:49,070 --> 01:44:53,310 You know over the time that you've done it with no compensation you spend your own gas 1288 01:44:53,310 --> 01:44:59,970 They go to these meetings at that. I think I don't God bless you because I don't know that I would have the enthusiasm 1289 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:06,340 We have to do that much work. And not to be compensated in any way, shape or form, and by doing this, you know, you're 1290 01:45:06,340 --> 01:45:12,040 saw that that $30,000, if it was a county employee would then be $60,000. Because of the benefit package, 1291 01:45:12,060 --> 01:45:18,480 you know, and the insurers and everything. So, I think it's an incredible investment. I certainly would support it 1292 01:45:18,480 --> 01:45:27,040 1,000, because I've seen already the results of what you've done, you know, and it's just, it's incredible, you 1293 01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:31,120 benefit return that we're going to get off of what you've done just at this point. 1294 01:45:31,820 --> 01:45:35,220 So, I mean it's like having a tourist, it's like trying to attract tourists without a tourist 1295 01:45:35,220 --> 01:45:36,080 development council. 1296 01:45:37,500 --> 01:45:41,180 And the best way I can relate to that is that I went through it as the young kid we moved 1297 01:45:41,180 --> 01:45:43,220 and I went into a new school and didn't know anybody. 1298 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,380 And I was lost and it's the same thing when someone comes here. 1299 01:45:46,500 --> 01:45:50,980 They've got someone that's a focal point and they can answer the questions with a nice attitude 1300 01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:55,640 because you are the first impression they're going to get to this county or whoever's in that position. 1301 01:45:55,640 --> 01:46:00,480 And you don't get a second chance, and if that person feels like we really want them here, 1302 01:46:00,640 --> 01:46:02,800 that's going to go a long way to bring them here. 1303 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:03,640 I think it's important. 1304 01:46:04,580 --> 01:46:04,840 Well, yeah. 1305 01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:07,720 You know, it's Main Street Church development. 1306 01:46:08,060 --> 01:46:09,940 They bring people into town. 1307 01:46:10,660 --> 01:46:16,600 The goal is that when they come into town, they say, wow, what a vibrant community. 1308 01:46:17,940 --> 01:46:24,040 You know, it hits me between the eyes every time that I drive through town, not so much now. 1309 01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:28,780 But when we have all those vacant storefronts, they've drove me crazy, and they're thinking 1310 01:46:28,780 --> 01:46:31,160 all I can see is that's like a death spiral. 1311 01:46:32,280 --> 01:46:40,340 Now, when you drive around, I can only think of the one vacant scene now down down, because 1312 01:46:40,340 --> 01:46:47,800 I've been able to put people into those slots, get them going, and create more revenue streams 1313 01:46:47,800 --> 01:46:48,820 for the county. 1314 01:46:49,380 --> 01:46:53,460 So a lot of people don't understand how each thing works off of each other. 1315 01:46:53,460 --> 01:47:03,340 So that's something we're trying to promote through the leadership of the Chow because finding out this one relates to this and relates to that. 1316 01:47:04,360 --> 01:47:09,220 So it's been a great education experience and I'm happy to be participating in that. 1317 01:47:10,800 --> 01:47:16,940 You know, that's kind of where it is. I know it's a short story, but you're all totally aware of economic developments. 1318 01:47:16,940 --> 01:47:19,160 So you know of the importance of it. 1319 01:47:19,440 --> 01:47:22,220 So I just wanted to put that proposal out in front of you 1320 01:47:22,220 --> 01:47:26,440 to see if we can't partner up and move forward. 1321 01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:28,680 Rob, do we have an identifyable funding source 1322 01:47:28,680 --> 01:47:30,700 that this money could be pulled from? 1323 01:47:33,420 --> 01:47:36,920 Just, I mean, generally, when we've had this type of thing 1324 01:47:36,920 --> 01:47:39,120 before, we just put it in on a corporate service area, 1325 01:47:39,280 --> 01:47:40,980 which is part of sales tax dollars, nothing. 1326 01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:42,440 Just a general revenue. 1327 01:47:45,660 --> 01:47:48,620 Well, you could take it out of your million and a half dollars. 1328 01:47:49,120 --> 01:47:50,020 Yes, who's not it? 1329 01:47:50,020 --> 01:47:54,480 that's not an ongoing source and I have another idea for that anyway that I need to share with you before. 1330 01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:57,000 But economic development, I'm going to have dollars. 1331 01:47:59,280 --> 01:48:03,460 Well, the other thing that I want to do is keep all of you informed of what's going on too. 1332 01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:11,720 You know, I do a monthly report to the chamber and to the business development segment of that chamber. 1333 01:48:12,860 --> 01:48:20,000 But I've been sharing a lot of that with Robbie lately, and I think that first one I sent you kind of 1334 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:28,580 I could picture you thinking, you know, God, here's eight pages of ten point types, you know, do I really need to read all of this? 1335 01:48:28,940 --> 01:48:30,020 It gives you the background. 1336 01:48:30,220 --> 01:48:30,900 I read it all. 1337 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:31,420 Yeah. 1338 01:48:31,420 --> 01:48:32,220 I like it. 1339 01:48:32,220 --> 01:48:33,860 And then I do the monthly updates. 1340 01:48:34,200 --> 01:48:40,440 I cut out the ones that are either done open and I'm finished with or they craft out. 1341 01:48:40,760 --> 01:48:41,960 Couldn't make it. 1342 01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:43,380 Couldn't come up with the financing. 1343 01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:44,820 Whatever it is. 1344 01:48:45,320 --> 01:48:47,340 So when I do that monthly report, 1345 01:48:47,340 --> 01:48:52,660 it is only the ones I'm working on that are active, and it's normally like two pages. 1346 01:48:54,380 --> 01:48:59,460 So there's a lot going on out there, and I think you all need to know that, 1347 01:48:59,460 --> 01:49:02,820 and I don't need to be the lone wolf running around in the shadows. 1348 01:49:03,160 --> 01:49:05,740 You know, doing this stuff, we need to work on it together. 1349 01:49:07,300 --> 01:49:16,540 I would appreciate you coming before us to tell us something, because you sort of like the person that you do a lot of work, 1350 01:49:16,540 --> 01:49:18,560 but you're never on the front page of the newspaper. 1351 01:49:19,980 --> 01:49:21,120 It's not going to be here for you. 1352 01:49:21,200 --> 01:49:22,720 It's not going to be here for you, right? 1353 01:49:22,900 --> 01:49:26,320 You're doing a lot of work for us. 1354 01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:28,540 So do we need a motion for you? 1355 01:49:28,720 --> 01:49:31,880 Do you get some kind of report from John now? 1356 01:49:32,100 --> 01:49:33,940 Yes, we just started that. 1357 01:49:34,020 --> 01:49:36,580 I used to get from Michelle Rose when he was doing it. 1358 01:49:36,780 --> 01:49:37,260 But now. 1359 01:49:37,340 --> 01:49:38,300 Because that would be nice. 1360 01:49:39,700 --> 01:49:42,440 Question about, you know, what? 1361 01:49:43,860 --> 01:49:45,200 First of all, I like to say that. 1362 01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:52,020 need to keep government out of economic development. It's much as possible for a lot of 1363 01:49:52,020 --> 01:49:57,140 reason. Certainly early on, because people don't want it to be known publicly and anything 1364 01:49:57,140 --> 01:50:04,460 that government gets involved with it is public. So I have no problem with that idea, but I certainly 1365 01:50:04,460 --> 01:50:10,860 have, if the county is going to give $30,000 to an entity, then we need to have some kind of 1366 01:50:10,860 --> 01:50:18,280 going report about what's happening, obviously you don't have to have company names and 1367 01:50:18,280 --> 01:50:22,640 that because a lot of times again, they don't want that necessarily public until they make 1368 01:50:22,640 --> 01:50:23,120 a decision. 1369 01:50:24,280 --> 01:50:30,140 Well that's why it works for me to send it to Robby because she understands that it's 1370 01:50:30,140 --> 01:50:30,680 confidential. 1371 01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:34,420 I mean she shares what we do, you're going to understand it's confidential. 1372 01:50:34,900 --> 01:50:40,420 But telling you still not, it's not confidential, I mean if you share it at the board 1373 01:50:41,520 --> 01:50:45,200 John doesn't share names. He will share a company. 1374 01:50:45,380 --> 01:50:47,140 You can do project names. He does. 1375 01:50:47,340 --> 01:50:48,800 Fictitious names and you'll be fine. 1376 01:50:49,020 --> 01:50:50,520 He doesn't share any types of names. 1377 01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:52,580 I'm not expecting that. 1378 01:50:53,140 --> 01:50:54,520 We want to do that. 1379 01:50:55,740 --> 01:50:59,760 That was one of my questions to help the board of making your decision. 1380 01:51:00,360 --> 01:51:06,480 What do you want in return for the $30,000? What are you looking for? 1381 01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:08,300 This is part of your strategic plan. 1382 01:51:08,300 --> 01:51:17,980 And it could be an answer that element, you know, that we created was, you know, to we were talking about hiring a coordinator, this could be in lieu of the coordinator. 1383 01:51:18,440 --> 01:51:19,080 Uh-huh. 1384 01:51:19,100 --> 01:51:20,900 Are we talking about hiring someone? 1385 01:51:21,740 --> 01:51:22,400 Or we're talking about hiring someone. 1386 01:51:22,420 --> 01:51:22,800 No, no, sir. 1387 01:51:22,980 --> 01:51:27,420 I'm saying in the strategic plan, we discussed hiring, and I got on my coordinator. 1388 01:51:27,580 --> 01:51:29,020 That was part of the discussion. 1389 01:51:29,540 --> 01:51:38,240 What I'm saying is in lieu of doing that on the county side, you would give the change for the money and however they choose to use it with John's assistance. 1390 01:51:38,240 --> 01:51:40,340 through this process. 1391 01:51:40,340 --> 01:51:42,540 That removes the step away from the county. 1392 01:51:42,760 --> 01:51:43,460 That removes it. 1393 01:51:43,460 --> 01:51:45,080 Oh, no, I don't want to count to be involved. 1394 01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:46,200 That's what I mean. 1395 01:51:47,460 --> 01:51:49,140 My direct link is to the chamber. 1396 01:51:50,160 --> 01:51:52,740 So then, I thought, was how do you measure? 1397 01:51:53,020 --> 01:51:53,320 Right. 1398 01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:55,360 How effective the $30,000 was. 1399 01:51:55,360 --> 01:51:55,580 Right. 1400 01:51:56,100 --> 01:52:01,180 That was my question about reporting or feedback or whatever. 1401 01:52:01,700 --> 01:52:07,240 Because this is just we had to have some investigation for the $30,000 being spent. 1402 01:52:10,260 --> 01:52:15,480 John Zatsby says a good example, what do you think the economic benefit is going to be to the 1403 01:52:15,480 --> 01:52:17,880 accounting, financial economic benefit from Zatsby? 1404 01:52:18,420 --> 01:52:20,860 Number one, you're looking at over 50 jobs. 1405 01:52:21,180 --> 01:52:22,100 I mean, that's huge. 1406 01:52:22,900 --> 01:52:29,680 The tax base itself off of by a 24-7 restaurant is another major tax. 1407 01:52:32,050 --> 01:52:38,710 Just having that property cleaned up with a beautiful building on how do you put a price on that? 1408 01:52:39,110 --> 01:52:45,910 The 50 employees is probably part-time and not full-time. They're probably not 50 years. FCEs. 1409 01:52:46,350 --> 01:52:54,850 In terms of some of the other things that John is going to be working on, we have a larger project that it's been handed over to him. 1410 01:52:55,810 --> 01:53:04,070 that will fill a larger building in the downtown area. So that particular one will help quite a bit in terms of what we're doing. 1411 01:53:05,290 --> 01:53:11,590 So as far as measurables, I mean, obviously the report can be a measurable, if you can talk about the number of jobs, 1412 01:53:11,590 --> 01:53:14,770 he creates relative to the opportunities. 1413 01:53:15,370 --> 01:53:20,850 And I think the tax value, if there's a new building comes in, that's a measurable opportunity there. 1414 01:53:22,070 --> 01:53:23,850 If you choose to do that. 1415 01:53:24,610 --> 01:53:25,870 Yeah, I'm not forcing that just now. 1416 01:53:25,970 --> 01:53:27,230 What is that feedback? 1417 01:53:28,190 --> 01:53:30,230 Those are the things I can. 1418 01:53:30,830 --> 01:53:31,010 Right. 1419 01:53:31,350 --> 01:53:31,450 Right. 1420 01:53:31,590 --> 01:53:32,590 That's all I'm asking. 1421 01:53:32,690 --> 01:53:33,550 But easy to track. 1422 01:53:33,710 --> 01:53:34,230 I would think. 1423 01:53:34,550 --> 01:53:37,350 Well, some of that you can track off the tax collector too. 1424 01:53:37,530 --> 01:53:39,790 The trail after the business licenses. 1425 01:53:40,150 --> 01:53:41,550 You know, planning and designing. 1426 01:53:41,710 --> 01:53:43,290 You know, once they go through that. 1427 01:53:43,870 --> 01:53:45,410 But there's another good example. 1428 01:53:45,590 --> 01:53:47,550 When they start talking to planning and zoning, 1429 01:53:47,790 --> 01:53:48,850 I'd like to get that call. 1430 01:53:49,470 --> 01:53:55,690 Well, another thought I had, too, not just increase in tax base, but reduction in vacant space. 1431 01:53:55,750 --> 01:53:56,230 Absolutely. 1432 01:53:56,450 --> 01:54:04,090 You know, which would be to counter that we may not have a business in there right now, but if you put a business in a vacant spot, it certainly makes you look more vibrant. 1433 01:54:04,910 --> 01:54:07,450 You know, then there's the circulation of those dollars in the community. 1434 01:54:09,050 --> 01:54:17,990 When I was on the Council of 100 up in the Highlands County years ago, we had a real problem with vacancy's downtown and other commercial buildings. 1435 01:54:17,990 --> 01:54:28,690 So I was able to work out kind of an incubator program with them because if you own a vacant building, it cost you on a daily basis model. 1436 01:54:29,950 --> 01:54:38,950 So with that program, they were very emiable to letting a startup move into that building at one third of the rent. 1437 01:54:38,950 --> 01:54:43,710 that one-third more than paid all the expenses on that building. 1438 01:54:44,470 --> 01:54:49,370 The second year went up to two-thirds, the next year went up to full ramp, 1439 01:54:49,890 --> 01:54:54,410 and they either had the option of paying full ramp or moving. 1440 01:54:55,310 --> 01:55:00,130 But what it did is it gave a constant income to the property owner 1441 01:55:00,130 --> 01:55:03,510 so that they had some revenue come in and instead of the thing, 1442 01:55:03,610 --> 01:55:08,370 sitting there in the deteriorating empty while they're still paying all the 1443 01:55:08,370 --> 01:55:12,910 other expenses, and it worked extremely well. That's how we were able to rebuild that 1444 01:55:12,910 --> 01:55:20,190 on top. You know, that whole thing would work here just as well. I'm thinking that would 1445 01:55:20,190 --> 01:55:26,250 also apply to the industrial parks. You know, the airport has a little advantage because it 1446 01:55:26,250 --> 01:55:31,370 has existing buildings. So why not put somebody in there? Even if it's an incubator program, 1447 01:55:31,470 --> 01:55:36,750 at least we got some revenue coming in for it. And as you know, they can build and deteriorate 1448 01:55:36,750 --> 01:55:38,690 in an occupied building, 1449 01:55:43,060 --> 01:55:44,100 so any other question? 1450 01:55:44,560 --> 01:55:48,540 Robin, were you happy with the report that John gave you? 1451 01:55:49,040 --> 01:55:53,040 Yes, I think it's very detailed and provides exactly what they're doing when he's communicating. 1452 01:55:53,780 --> 01:55:55,500 He's actually very, very detailed. 1453 01:55:55,740 --> 01:56:01,160 I've complimented him on that, actually, that's one of his shining stars. 1454 01:56:01,540 --> 01:56:05,440 He does do a very good job of communicating the information that's happening. 1455 01:56:06,420 --> 01:56:19,860 And I don't repeat what was on that last time. It's the new stuff. He's following up with people. He's not just letting them come to him. He turns around and contacts them again, make sure they don't be anything further. 1456 01:56:21,720 --> 01:56:28,860 So even people I have a talk to them that say a month, I still do the follow-up calls to find out where they are. 1457 01:56:28,980 --> 01:56:35,700 If you run into a hurdle, if you run into a hurdle that sticks it, because my goal was to keep everybody moving forward. 1458 01:56:36,120 --> 01:56:36,680 Follow-up. 1459 01:56:37,880 --> 01:56:40,020 Well, you're dead in the water if you don't do the follow-up. 1460 01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:42,860 Because I don't think they think they don't care. 1461 01:56:43,980 --> 01:56:44,400 They go. 1462 01:56:44,680 --> 01:56:45,360 And we care. 1463 01:56:49,520 --> 01:56:51,120 Thank you very much for your time. 1464 01:56:51,500 --> 01:56:53,180 Thank you, John. 1465 01:56:54,640 --> 01:56:55,360 Pleasure to board. 1466 01:56:55,920 --> 01:56:56,640 Make a motion. 1467 01:56:56,940 --> 01:56:57,360 Excuse me. 1468 01:56:57,480 --> 01:56:58,780 Make a motion at the Board of County Commission. 1469 01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:02,040 We're going to consider a request submitted by the Business Development Board of 1470 01:57:02,040 --> 01:57:06,100 Bokachilby County, Seeking Economic Development Funding to support the Business 1471 01:57:06,100 --> 01:57:10,200 Development Board of Bokachilby activities and determine whether or not to approve 1472 01:57:10,200 --> 01:57:11,920 funding request of $30,000. 1473 01:57:13,700 --> 01:57:14,840 We have a motion. 1474 01:57:15,260 --> 01:57:15,600 Second. 1475 01:57:15,940 --> 01:57:16,760 Second by Miss Health. 1476 01:57:16,980 --> 01:57:19,460 Did we need to stipulate an end motion as a one-year agreement? 1477 01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:22,180 That's how the board wants. 1478 01:57:22,560 --> 01:57:23,840 That's what it says in the mind. 1479 01:57:24,620 --> 01:57:29,620 And he said whether or not to prove it, so I would probably try to prove. 1480 01:57:29,620 --> 01:57:29,800 Sure. 1481 01:57:30,440 --> 01:57:31,420 I'll amend my motion. 1482 01:57:31,800 --> 01:57:32,220 I'll approve. 1483 01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:39,260 I'll amend my motion to approve funding request of $30,000 for one period of time of one year. 1484 01:57:39,260 --> 01:57:43,820 Okay, motion by Mr. Gopper, second on Miss Elton, further discussion? 1485 01:57:45,500 --> 01:57:50,680 Let me just point out to the board, there have been some court rulings that indicate 1486 01:57:50,680 --> 01:57:57,340 that when a private entity receives funds from the county, that then makes that private 1487 01:57:57,340 --> 01:58:02,700 entity and their use of those funds, subject to the sunshine law and the public records 1488 01:58:02,700 --> 01:58:03,020 law. 1489 01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:09,240 So it's not a guarantee, I understand what Mr. Garnier's concern is with confidentiality 1490 01:58:09,240 --> 01:58:16,180 of companies coming to him, but that may change if the Chamber then takes money from the 1491 01:58:16,180 --> 01:58:16,620 county. 1492 01:58:19,570 --> 01:58:23,510 Isn't it based on what they spend it on in the report, the financial reporting of the 1493 01:58:23,510 --> 01:58:24,490 expenditures, public? 1494 01:58:25,090 --> 01:58:27,210 It is, and there's no hard and fast rule. 1495 01:58:28,670 --> 01:58:32,850 Some of it seems to be tied to whether the private entity is fulfilling a governmental 1496 01:58:32,850 --> 01:58:39,330 function, for example, the county that would traditionally be providing a recreational facility. 1497 01:58:39,330 --> 01:58:41,170 if they 1498 01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:50,200 delegate that function to a private entity and pay for it, then that, in that case, 1499 01:58:50,320 --> 01:58:54,340 the private entities, records are probably subject to the subject to the public records law, 1500 01:58:54,440 --> 01:58:59,260 and their activity is subject to the sunshine law. I have somewhat like that. 1501 01:58:59,540 --> 01:59:04,040 Yeah, and I'm not saying I have a research this, but I just want the board to be aware that that's 1502 01:59:04,040 --> 01:59:10,520 a possibility of hanging out there, that providing the money then makes them subject to the sunshine 1503 01:59:10,520 --> 01:59:12,600 on the public records law. 1504 01:59:13,700 --> 01:59:17,740 Before we got it, might I suggest that we have Council, though, look into that a little bit 1505 01:59:17,740 --> 01:59:25,700 further so that, and then also the chamber consider the implications if that in fact will 1506 01:59:25,700 --> 01:59:26,360 be an issue. 1507 01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:32,220 Well, I don't know if the chamber is now 1508 01:59:34,490 --> 01:59:35,890 under the sunshine law. 1509 01:59:36,450 --> 01:59:36,550 No. 1510 01:59:36,550 --> 01:59:37,190 They're not. 1511 01:59:37,410 --> 01:59:43,570 And if you have, if you have sunshine law, that kind of takes away the confidentiality 1512 01:59:43,570 --> 01:59:48,850 discussions that, well, they might have. 1513 01:59:49,190 --> 01:59:53,310 Well, the issue, like, let's take for instance, this is the development board of 1514 01:59:53,310 --> 01:59:54,230 Martin County. 1515 01:59:55,890 --> 01:59:58,350 There's money provided by Martin County. 1516 01:59:58,430 --> 01:59:59,970 In fact, I think they're predominantly fun. 1517 02:00:00,530 --> 02:00:10,620 By Martin County. And what, and their board is held under, I remember what Tim told me, and they 1518 02:00:10,620 --> 02:00:16,140 did board is held under the Sunshine Law, but I think they've divided out how that money is spent. 1519 02:00:16,460 --> 02:00:24,120 And so we still protect the confidentiality of the person we're dealing with, but that I do believe 1520 02:00:24,120 --> 02:00:26,000 they're held under the Sunshine Law. 1521 02:00:27,440 --> 02:00:36,440 Would it mean that's much different from when the county supported the brand new chamber than we were resurrecting it? 1522 02:00:38,120 --> 02:00:42,540 It was subject then that's come we've had this discussion back at that point 1523 02:00:42,540 --> 02:00:50,760 And that was the only hesitation, you know, about funding the last time was because of the sunshine and do you want to subject that in the reporting? 1524 02:00:52,810 --> 02:00:57,790 I mean, if you were by by a sunshine law, that makes it very difficult to have discussions 1525 02:00:57,790 --> 02:00:58,450 and confidence, 1526 02:01:00,820 --> 02:01:04,120 because two board members need to talk about it. 1527 02:01:04,280 --> 02:01:08,240 And you have to have everything you talk about, has to be an announced, published, board 1528 02:01:08,840 --> 02:01:11,880 meeting, and anybody wants to control it. 1529 02:01:12,260 --> 02:01:15,840 Well, in reality, the way the board is set up for it present time. 1530 02:01:15,840 --> 02:01:23,700 the business development and business assistance committees, we don't read out to the general 1531 02:01:23,700 --> 02:01:31,460 board in here. Because of the confidentiality of what they did, but this is an agreement 1532 02:01:31,460 --> 02:01:36,940 with the chamber. I understand it, but I think we can probably have the, because see the business 1533 02:01:36,940 --> 02:01:42,820 about the chamber, your disagreements with the business development board. The chamber is 1534 02:01:42,820 --> 02:01:48,340 do in business as, so the business development board is the entity by words you can separate 1535 02:01:48,340 --> 02:01:49,140 the money. 1536 02:01:49,480 --> 02:01:49,760 That's right. 1537 02:01:49,820 --> 02:01:55,240 Well, it says that the OPEC County Chamber of Commerce has gone endorses, every month. 1538 02:01:55,840 --> 02:02:00,280 We can change it around to show the business development board whether it is the separation 1539 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:03,380 of the money, but if that is the result of the issue. 1540 02:02:05,570 --> 02:02:12,290 Mainly, they do not just support the chamber to go and get members and collectors, we want 1541 02:02:12,290 --> 02:02:14,050 I'll take it to the next level. 1542 02:02:14,550 --> 02:02:19,850 Problem is, I would suggest that you might be better served to ensure that you don't open 1543 02:02:19,850 --> 02:02:23,530 yourself up to the sunshine and law before you do this. 1544 02:02:24,650 --> 02:02:25,830 That would be my suggestion. 1545 02:02:27,190 --> 02:02:27,570 That's fine. 1546 02:02:27,890 --> 02:02:32,950 Because that change is everything that you can or can't do, John, 1547 02:02:35,030 --> 02:02:36,250 you know, and it opens 1548 02:02:36,250 --> 02:02:44,050 you out to many opportunities for people to accuse you of being operating outside the Sun 1549 02:02:44,050 --> 02:02:44,330 China. 1550 02:02:45,750 --> 02:02:48,090 So, but we have a motion in a second. 1551 02:02:52,550 --> 02:02:56,630 So, as me, like Council was suggesting that we may think about this for a little bit 1552 02:02:56,630 --> 02:02:57,610 before we do it. 1553 02:02:57,930 --> 02:03:01,170 Well, we just want to make sure both parties are protected, and I certainly have, I mean, 1554 02:03:01,190 --> 02:03:06,770 I love the concept, but if Council has an issue where she's concerned about the board's 1555 02:03:06,770 --> 02:03:09,610 decision, then we certainly need to clarify that before. 1556 02:03:09,610 --> 02:03:15,810 It's not a fact of the fact that we are in some kind of detects of chamber and misgurn. 1557 02:03:16,210 --> 02:03:18,390 I mean, we don't know how difficult that is. 1558 02:03:21,770 --> 02:03:24,910 They want to use that as something against them. 1559 02:03:24,950 --> 02:03:26,010 Here, how is that? 1560 02:03:26,010 --> 02:03:28,030 What kind of an adverse effect is that going to have it? 1561 02:03:28,550 --> 02:03:30,650 If we, you know, if we do, if we support this? 1562 02:03:35,560 --> 02:03:40,660 As I said, the business of all of the war is the corporation. 1563 02:03:41,240 --> 02:03:46,380 and you have a, you have a EVA as a chamber of commerce. Basically what you do is you set the 1564 02:03:46,380 --> 02:03:52,180 books up under the business development board and John's confidentiality has to be held there 1565 02:03:52,180 --> 02:03:58,580 because they really don't have a board, right? This is one of the socials of our committee and 1566 02:03:58,580 --> 02:04:07,640 it's just as committee as a subcommittee of the Chamber Board. So I don't think they can discuss it 1567 02:04:07,640 --> 02:04:12,160 board meeting this week and have a discussion because we have a board meeting tomorrow so they 1568 02:04:12,160 --> 02:04:17,320 can have a discussion if you approve it today then if they feel uncomfortable with it and 1569 02:04:17,320 --> 02:04:22,680 I'll talk to John today the fact to feel uncomfortable with it will figure out how to do it to 1570 02:04:22,680 --> 02:04:24,920 make sure that the board is comfortable. 1571 02:04:27,590 --> 02:04:29,970 So if we approve this today that you can work these details 1572 02:04:30,610 --> 02:04:35,710 out. That's what I'll talk to John later on. I believe we can.

Is that why you came out and say if we're going to do it or something? 1745 02:15:39,740 --> 02:15:41,640 Your budget is not on this? 1746 02:15:45,050 --> 02:15:49,690 Okay, so you can go and paste with that project and then you start on the next one, right? 1747 02:16:00,980 --> 02:16:05,240 All right, the next agenda item is for the agressivity center horse barn. 1748 02:16:05,820 --> 02:16:11,200 We received bids on the horse barn the same day as we received the judicial center bids. 1749 02:16:12,380 --> 02:16:17,800 And we ended up with two bidders on it. 1750 02:16:17,800 --> 02:16:23,160 Turn a light rate, which is a local contractor who've been the project, which was substantially higher than 1751 02:16:23,160 --> 02:16:29,920 Arlington, all light rate, and everyone knows Arlington electric, they were the original contractor at the 1752 02:16:29,920 --> 02:16:33,360 Aggressive Accelerate Center, and they've done quite a bit of work out there. 1753 02:16:34,140 --> 02:16:40,360 But one thing I wanted to kind of explain a little bit about this bid was the bid proposal consisted of a lump sum and one ultimate. 1754 02:16:40,360 --> 02:16:50,580 And the reason that it did is because there was two different ways that were actually installing the electric over the top of the horse farm or over the stalls. 1755 02:16:51,300 --> 02:16:57,240 There's things suspended from overhead and we're having a two-game box at each location. 1756 02:16:57,240 --> 02:17:06,160 So, during the design of this, the engineer came up with a module system based on an OSHA 1757 02:17:06,160 --> 02:17:13,360 ruling on what was considered a temporary cord as opposed to a permanent cord. 1758 02:17:14,160 --> 02:17:19,500 We're dropping cords down over the top of all these stalls, which we have to to keep them accessible. 1759 02:17:20,320 --> 02:17:26,220 So, we will back and forth a little bit, and if you'll take a look at the drawing that I just provided to you, 1760 02:17:26,220 --> 02:17:33,500 The typical flexible cord drop base bed was with a module which actually had two 1761 02:17:33,500 --> 02:17:37,180 two-game box suspended from the cord on the overhead. 1762 02:17:38,760 --> 02:17:44,260 That module was separate, it works like a GFI, but it's separate from the receptacles. 1763 02:17:45,140 --> 02:17:50,540 Now, the wall on your right-hand side is a typical drop, which actually is suspended with 1764 02:17:50,540 --> 02:17:58,080 up to Game Box with GFI receptacles that are located in the one location and all of them are 1765 02:17:58,080 --> 02:18:03,720 whether it be boxes. Now, we went back and forth with us a little bit, decided to put both of 1766 02:18:03,720 --> 02:18:09,540 them out of bed just to see what we came up with. And when it was all said and done, we actually 1767 02:18:09,540 --> 02:18:17,880 went back. We don't consider this a temporary cord installation. We consider it a permanent. And by doing so, 1768 02:18:17,880 --> 02:18:24,060 We went back to the National Electric Code, and we took a look at that, and I think I provided 1769 02:18:24,060 --> 02:18:30,720 it to you in your package where actually shows for agricultural buildings that GFI is 1770 02:18:30,720 --> 02:18:31,420 acceptable. 1771 02:18:32,200 --> 02:18:39,500 So we're choosing that alternate, which actually reduced the cost about $15,000, and we've 1772 02:18:39,500 --> 02:18:47,760 actually dropped from 11,000 to 540 with the module on the left down to 96,000 to 1773 02:18:47,760 --> 02:18:53,540 40 with the reduction that we got for the typical flexible with the GFI's included. 1774 02:18:55,750 --> 02:19:00,170 Don't you know what would be what would be the benefit of having ground fault in a rubbed? 1775 02:19:00,370 --> 02:19:01,490 At each receptacle. 1776 02:19:01,710 --> 02:19:02,830 Why would we even... 1777 02:19:02,830 --> 02:19:10,410 Well, what he looked at, he looked at a ruling on OSHA's sometime back on temporary courts 1778 02:19:10,410 --> 02:19:11,790 to give it an open neutral. 1779 02:19:12,770 --> 02:19:17,870 But this is not temporary, these are fixed, and these are permanent, and it was just a ruling 1780 02:19:17,870 --> 02:19:23,730 is all it was. And I went back and I got another building official. We set down. We went over it. 1781 02:19:23,730 --> 02:19:30,870 We pulled out the lack of electrical and we don't need that. We would prefer to stay with the GFI's. 1782 02:19:31,110 --> 02:19:35,450 They can't do it. Use it that seal fight or is it metal condo? It's metal condo. 1783 02:19:36,090 --> 02:19:36,090 Okay. 1784 02:19:39,190 --> 02:19:46,190 So only a ray out there with the number of stalls. How many of those are going to come down? 1785 02:19:46,190 --> 02:19:50,750 If you've got four stalls, you want to have how many of this coming down, four or one. 1786 02:19:51,330 --> 02:19:55,470 Actually in places, they'll split two stalls or be a single for one stall. 1787 02:19:56,070 --> 02:19:57,630 It depends on how they lay it out. 1788 02:20:00,090 --> 02:20:02,450 We'll actually have singles and doubles. 1789 02:20:03,790 --> 02:20:10,010 Because you know why I asked that question relative to the fact that how the folks with the horses do this, 1790 02:20:10,010 --> 02:20:12,810 they need fans and all kinds of other things. 1791 02:20:14,090 --> 02:20:14,550 Okay. 1792 02:20:18,760 --> 02:20:22,080 If you need four, you'd have to use some stencil and larger gauge wire. 1793 02:20:22,620 --> 02:20:28,740 Yeah, it's simply difficult to do four because he dropped it in the middle and over to access it and everybody would have to go and install it. 1794 02:20:29,280 --> 02:20:29,520 Right. 1795 02:20:34,310 --> 02:20:34,870 I'll turn it. 1796 02:20:34,970 --> 02:20:35,510 I'll turn it. 1797 02:20:35,670 --> 02:20:36,990 Pardon me. 1798 02:20:37,110 --> 02:20:37,570 I'll turn it. 1799 02:20:37,750 --> 02:20:37,970 I'll turn it. 1800 02:20:37,970 --> 02:20:38,730 I'll turn it. 1801 02:20:40,010 --> 02:20:41,130 I'll turn it. 1802 02:20:41,490 --> 02:20:46,210 So the people who use the horse barn, they're okay with this idea. 1803 02:20:46,810 --> 02:20:47,290 Yes sir. 1804 02:20:47,290 --> 02:20:52,330 I've gone over with Matt Ford, and we've worked back and forth on it, and as far as I know everybody's happy. 1805 02:20:54,070 --> 02:20:54,770 They just won't power. 1806 02:20:55,470 --> 02:20:55,730 Right. 1807 02:20:56,170 --> 02:21:02,690 We originally started this fact when I was on the Agress of Extended Advisory Group trying to get... 1808 02:21:02,690 --> 02:21:08,570 Yeah, this is, in fact, this has moved quicker than a lot of, a lot of them. 1809 02:21:08,770 --> 02:21:09,430 Yeah, how many years? 1810 02:21:10,650 --> 02:21:17,190 Well, the point was, is that in the summertime, we cannot utilize the horse bond to various sorts of entities coming in. 1811 02:21:17,190 --> 02:21:25,970 it is a revenue generator for Matt. So I'm happy that we got this far.

That has always been a manager right there to retain 2124 02:43:39,860 --> 02:43:42,460 buying by the administration of the county. 2125 02:43:43,760 --> 02:43:48,360 The employee of the Maine Management Wright that was given up and done long before the 2126 02:43:48,360 --> 02:43:56,620 disagreement was the incorporation of the arbitration versus employment at Will. So that's 2127 02:43:56,620 --> 02:43:58,360 the main manager at Wright that was given up. 2128 02:43:58,600 --> 02:43:58,920 That was good. 2129 02:43:58,920 --> 02:44:01,260 Did you sound like that from a discussion we had this morning? 2130 02:44:04,560 --> 02:44:10,740 Well, I could gather that, you might feel that way, but the scheduling is a management 2131 02:44:10,740 --> 02:44:11,080 right. 2132 02:44:11,340 --> 02:44:11,860 It's still in here. 2133 02:44:11,980 --> 02:44:13,160 I was in a hundred down for you. 2134 02:44:13,160 --> 02:44:14,080 It's an article 12. 2135 02:44:14,640 --> 02:44:19,260 It says, say, that the county hereby reserves the unilateral right to re-establish or change 2136 02:44:19,260 --> 02:44:19,860 the average work. 2137 02:44:20,040 --> 02:44:22,060 Weekend or schedule of hours to be worked. 2138 02:44:22,380 --> 02:44:26,420 Subject to advance notice of any change to the union at least 45 days prior to its effective 2139 02:44:26,420 --> 02:44:26,860 date. 2140 02:44:27,480 --> 02:44:33,120 So if we were to get 45 day notice, if we were going to implement a 12 hour shift, what 2141 02:44:33,120 --> 02:44:37,220 what it keeps us from doing. What are the limitations to being able to do that? 2142 02:44:38,880 --> 02:44:44,820 I think there's some about pay today. I think that you probably wouldn't pay people differently or something. 2143 02:44:45,280 --> 02:44:49,520 Correct. I think there's a limitation that might be, we can affect the 12 hour changes. 2144 02:44:50,520 --> 02:44:58,800 I think the limitation may come in is that the contract defines what a certain position makes per year. 2145 02:44:58,800 --> 02:44:58,820 Thank you. 2146 02:45:10,100 --> 02:45:17,620 That's also based on work in a certain number of hours during the week, right? We're doing the month, 200 and 12. That's how you calculate that, correct? 2147 02:45:18,380 --> 02:45:23,280 It's calculated out that way, yes. So you use some hourly rate to do that. 2148 02:45:23,280 --> 02:45:30,480 It's almost circular, I mean each component has a function of it, so I mean I understand what you're saying. 2149 02:45:30,600 --> 02:45:32,120 I'm not arguing against what you're saying. 2150 02:45:32,820 --> 02:45:38,220 But I think in order to understand it, because I've been trying to understand this calculation myself, 2151 02:45:38,640 --> 02:45:42,260 is if I wanted to go to 12 hours, what were you to pay to my use? 2152 02:45:42,500 --> 02:45:45,780 Do I recalculate the paramedics base paid? 2153 02:45:45,820 --> 02:45:50,020 That's $42,000 based on 29, 12. 2154 02:45:50,020 --> 02:45:58,900 And then take that hourly rate and do it on a 12-hour shift or do I do it on the 2080 for a year? 2155 02:45:59,420 --> 02:46:01,260 That's the piece that I'm struggling with. 2156 02:46:01,280 --> 02:46:04,600 How do you change from 42 to 72 and fairly late? 2157 02:46:04,600 --> 02:46:06,120 That's based on the hourly rate. 2158 02:46:07,300 --> 02:46:10,780 Well, that rate, yes, it would be, it's based on how do you calculate that hourly rate? 2159 02:46:10,920 --> 02:46:12,040 Based on 2912. 2160 02:46:13,180 --> 02:46:13,700 2912. 2161 02:46:14,020 --> 02:46:19,440 Okay, so whatever that 2912 is, that 42,000 divided by that's your hourly rate. 2162 02:46:20,580 --> 02:46:26,060 correct that rain is yes was twenty nine twelve to um that's fifty six hour 2163 02:46:26,060 --> 02:46:30,040 work week times twenty six papers or twenty eight papers it was really that 2164 02:46:30,040 --> 02:46:34,320 limits that limits management stability to hire somebody for twelve hour 2165 02:46:34,320 --> 02:46:38,320 shift because it's non-syptical that you'd hire somebody for twelve hours and 2166 02:46:38,320 --> 02:46:43,110 paying forty two thousand dollars and that's what the chief said we'd have to 2167 02:46:43,110 --> 02:46:49,690 did is that right and that's that's yes that is right that's and that's the 2168 02:46:49,690 --> 02:46:55,730 that we're trying to understand as well. You would probably have to create a different. 2169 02:46:55,750 --> 02:47:00,430 I'm sorry. You'd want to give them the same pay for the same work, just less hours. 2170 02:47:01,050 --> 02:47:03,910 No, they would want to pay them when hourly rates instead of hourly pay. 2171 02:47:05,210 --> 02:47:07,690 Yes, but the pay needs to be commenced for it with the job. 2172 02:47:07,870 --> 02:47:13,650 Function, if the job function is the same no matter if I work 24 hour or 12, it's still the same job. 2173 02:47:13,790 --> 02:47:14,610 That's the classic thing. 2174 02:47:14,610 --> 02:47:17,010 The hourly rate is the hourly rate. 2175 02:47:17,890 --> 02:47:22,930 It's either $15 now or $18 now, whatever the number is, or $20 now. 2176 02:47:31,080 --> 02:47:35,100 Basically, the number of ships they work, times that rate is which we come up with. 2177 02:47:35,320 --> 02:47:38,120 If that's what I'm understanding what is going to happen. 2178 02:47:38,140 --> 02:47:39,020 They're not out there. 2179 02:47:39,660 --> 02:47:40,940 They're not salary pay people. 2180 02:47:41,220 --> 02:47:42,100 They're hourly pay people. 2181 02:47:42,360 --> 02:47:46,280 And we create a base salary, which is not in fact a salary. 2182 02:47:46,940 --> 02:47:52,020 Because it called unwork, if she was out of work for two weeks, he didn't get paid, 2183 02:47:54,330 --> 02:47:54,450 right? 2184 02:47:54,450 --> 02:48:00,750 Therefore, he's not on salary. He gets paid by the hour. He gets paid for working whatever it is. 2185 02:48:01,210 --> 02:48:08,610 He's not salary, so he gets paid by the hour. So to have that limitation, if that's our interpretation, 2186 02:48:08,890 --> 02:48:16,810 that's non-sensical because it limits your ability to have staffing other than 24 hours of that. 2187 02:48:18,670 --> 02:48:22,070 Well, according to this agreement with the way it's written, 2188 02:48:22,730 --> 02:48:25,090 again, I'm not really the person with the way it's written, 2189 02:48:25,710 --> 02:48:29,750 we can adjust their work hours to whatever position you wanted to do. 2190 02:48:30,430 --> 02:48:36,290 However, the contract also defines the minimum salary for whatever position 2191 02:48:36,290 --> 02:48:37,930 from the minimum to a maximum. 2192 02:48:38,790 --> 02:48:44,870 So the reality of how that would affect a paramedic or a 40 hour week versus a 24 hour week, 2193 02:48:45,490 --> 02:48:53,290 That's subject to probably the dissonant negotiations or some other kind of formula, but Jake is not a salary. 2194 02:48:55,650 --> 02:48:58,130 What if it's a payway? It's probably not a word to use. 2195 02:48:59,270 --> 02:49:00,850 It's a payway. 2196 02:49:01,250 --> 02:49:03,890 It's a calculated rate. 2197 02:49:04,470 --> 02:49:10,450 If you work 56 hours a week times your schedule for the year, you would make 42,000 whatever the number. 2198 02:49:10,470 --> 02:49:11,310 That's right. 2199 02:49:11,830 --> 02:49:13,050 So it is an hourly rate. 2200 02:49:13,050 --> 02:49:28,790 So if we take that phase down 29 and 12 and you divided the 42,000 by that, you come up with an hourly wage, which I'm suggesting to you that that would be equal to an hourly rate that the guys now getting paid to work for 56 hours a week. 2201 02:49:29,070 --> 02:49:33,330 That's true. That's how it's done. It would have to be an order to even calculate over time. 2202 02:49:33,530 --> 02:49:33,890 I'm sorry. 2203 02:49:34,830 --> 02:49:37,030 It would have to be the even calculate the overtime. 2204 02:49:38,570 --> 02:49:39,550 So yes, you're right. 2205 02:49:39,550 --> 02:49:49,530 I'm just saying that if you say you cannot do that, that's a limitation on your ability to do variable staffing when you need it. 2206 02:49:54,220 --> 02:50:04,140 If I have to say 42,000 divided by 2080, which is a typical work we award year for 40-hour week person, that's $20 now or give a tag. 2207 02:50:04,640 --> 02:50:08,440 If I do 29, 12, and divide that by whatever, what does it mean? 2208 02:50:08,940 --> 02:50:09,540 1450. 2209 02:50:10,200 --> 02:50:10,800 1450. 2210 02:50:11,680 --> 02:50:12,840 14 whatever number. 2211 02:50:13,560 --> 02:50:20,440 It's not logical that you would face somebody who's working 40 hours a week, the same gross 2212 02:50:20,440 --> 02:50:22,980 pay, which is 42,000 dollars a year, because that's not logical. 2213 02:50:26,400 --> 02:50:33,060 So if that's accurate, then it limits your ability to do any kind of staffing other than 2214 02:50:33,060 --> 02:50:38,680 24-hour staffing, that makes sense, financial, and the other is, or logical. 2215 02:50:38,680 --> 02:50:39,160 You 2216 02:50:45,880 --> 02:50:53,540 know, the government is kind of a similar thing, which was a light duty when we have 2217 02:50:53,540 --> 02:50:54,400 some amount of light duty. 2218 02:50:54,600 --> 02:51:03,080 We can't relate their pay on the basis of 2080 hours, not 2090, why don't we do that? 2219 02:51:07,520 --> 02:51:07,940 I don't know. 2220 02:51:08,060 --> 02:51:09,260 What the minute is that logical? 2221 02:51:09,780 --> 02:51:12,640 Well, that provision match is currently policy. 2222 02:51:13,460 --> 02:51:13,780 I'm sorry. 2223 02:51:13,940 --> 02:51:16,340 That particular provision match is the county policy. 2224 02:51:17,060 --> 02:51:23,640 It's based on the idea that if you're going to pay them $20 an hour versus $14.50 what that is. 2225 02:51:24,260 --> 02:51:27,520 It's based on, for me, that doesn't make any sense if you were doing it. 2226 02:51:27,720 --> 02:51:31,500 It's based on the theory that when they're all white, do they continue to make their same sound? 2227 02:51:33,680 --> 02:51:39,920 Art of the 13 limits, the count is the ability to hire or down to your birthday. 2228 02:51:43,380 --> 02:51:45,100 Correct, it does in the part-time register. 2229 02:51:45,100 --> 02:51:52,440 I'm sorry, it does limit it on the part-time, which correct it limits our ability to hire somebody who replaced the person. 2230 02:51:53,640 --> 02:51:53,840 Correct. 2231 02:51:54,300 --> 02:51:57,380 What we have is the current position, the other limitation of management. 2232 02:51:58,520 --> 02:52:02,000 You have an hour of cement to your commissioner, the part-time people in the engine. 2233 02:52:02,840 --> 02:52:04,580 It's not as easy as the safety issue. 2234 02:52:05,280 --> 02:52:10,120 As far as this current article would allow us, this temporary employees, 2235 02:52:11,400 --> 02:52:14,100 allows us to hire someone in a full-time position 2236 02:52:14,100 --> 02:52:18,780 with the salary and the benefits, to cover someone that's going to be out of the 2237 02:52:18,780 --> 02:52:26,880 extended leaf, which is we currently have a couple of ways in those positions right now. 2238 02:52:27,600 --> 02:52:29,480 The part-time position, now. 2239 02:52:30,000 --> 02:52:59,240 You referenced to be able to call people, and when as we meet them, we might need them one day this week and not day, not for three weeks or whatever, I would submit to you with my own experience that that is a safety issue, because we work as homes, we work in conjunction with training, and we would be very hard to keep all the people trained and cohesive with the team concept, just by using them whenever they need my PRN-based assessment. 2240 02:53:00,000 --> 02:53:01,900 Well, section two, and that's same article, 2241 02:53:02,060 --> 02:53:04,120 saying the country will be section one. 2242 02:53:08,710 --> 02:53:10,490 The separate board is May work both on the hours 2243 02:53:10,490 --> 02:53:12,650 that's determined by the county, but in section one, 2244 02:53:12,730 --> 02:53:14,650 we agree that we can only hire time for our purpose 2245 02:53:14,650 --> 02:53:16,130 to work for the same state. 2246 02:53:16,850 --> 02:53:19,910 So that's a controversial number one, my opinion. 2247 02:54:06,700 --> 02:54:08,760 And again, you know, we show an article, 2248 02:54:09,060 --> 02:54:11,620 16 about pay compensation, we show this. 2249 02:54:11,620 --> 02:54:14,300 We're still on the minimum star, which is a salary, 2250 02:54:14,320 --> 02:54:17,080 which in fact is not a salary, it's an hour and a rate. 2251 02:54:18,400 --> 02:54:19,240 Yeah, we're not salaries. 2252 02:54:19,240 --> 02:54:23,420 of pay ranges, it says it right there, and by B, it says the pay ranges for bargaining 2253 02:54:23,420 --> 02:54:24,020 plays. 2254 02:54:24,260 --> 02:54:24,940 Do I? 2255 02:54:25,400 --> 02:54:34,120 In article in Article 16, Section 1, B, says the pay ranges, doesn't say salaries. 2256 02:54:34,880 --> 02:54:40,740 As a minimum start, press, and we're using that minimum start as a reason why we can't 2257 02:54:40,740 --> 02:54:44,040 pay differently for people who work different types of shifts. 2258 02:54:44,040 --> 02:54:51,260 You would have to calculate something different, but pay them the same commensurate rate. 2259 02:54:51,360 --> 02:54:54,120 What does that mean? 2260 02:54:54,280 --> 02:54:55,020 Well, I think. 2261 02:54:55,020 --> 02:54:56,660 I mean, given an example how they work. 2262 02:54:59,240 --> 02:55:05,440 Well, because I haven't sat and calculated it out because of this question, I'm not really sure that I could give you an accurate example. 2263 02:55:06,400 --> 02:55:07,800 Just sitting here. 2264 02:55:08,660 --> 02:55:15,500 However, I do think that there's probably a rate that's commensurate with the duties. 2265 02:55:16,680 --> 02:55:22,500 So we'd have to agree upon, I mean, if you take it in its 2080 and that's 20 dollars an hour, 2266 02:55:23,220 --> 02:55:31,540 you know, for eight hours of work and they make 1451 for 24 hours of work, is that the same? 2267 02:55:33,040 --> 02:55:45,480 We say this for like duty when they do something other than paramedic work, but... 2268 02:55:47,680 --> 02:55:50,900 Based on this agreement right now, how much are you going to calculate what I'm going 2269 02:55:50,900 --> 02:55:52,100 to pay per hour? 2270 02:55:53,840 --> 02:55:56,320 I'd have to know how many ships you're going to work in a year to figure it out. 2271 02:55:56,320 --> 02:55:58,240 No, you don't start me off at some rate. 2272 02:56:03,910 --> 02:56:07,210 You're going to start off at 20, 80 or 29 and 12, one of the two is what you're saying. 2273 02:56:07,510 --> 02:56:08,050 I don't know. 2274 02:56:08,390 --> 02:56:08,430 I don't know. 2275 02:56:08,430 --> 02:56:08,570 I don't know. 2276 02:56:08,570 --> 02:56:08,770 I don't know. 2277 02:56:08,810 --> 02:56:08,910 I don't know. 2278 02:56:08,910 --> 02:56:10,590 I don't know how to calculate it. 2279 02:56:11,110 --> 02:56:16,210 We would have to pay at 20, 80 per hour from the same amount of money as we pay at 29 and 12 per 2280 02:56:16,210 --> 02:56:16,670 person. 2281 02:56:19,390 --> 02:56:28,750 Obsession, six on call back, you know, we have some discussion about call back, and I know we don't have people actually on call, 2282 02:56:29,470 --> 02:56:34,610 who are either part of the either classification of staff. 2283 02:56:36,310 --> 02:56:46,450 And, you know, as I said, of course, I guess if you, if, let's call out for an hour over on the coast, doing whatever, when we get called and we can't come in because we both had a beer. 2284 02:56:48,090 --> 02:56:50,450 Is that a excuse for not coming in? 2285 02:56:51,330 --> 02:56:51,450 Absolutely. 2286 02:56:53,470 --> 02:56:59,590 But would it not be helpful to have us to find us being on the call of so we wouldn't be out of town? 2287 02:57:02,060 --> 02:57:03,640 Or some people on call. 2288 02:57:04,540 --> 02:57:08,200 I understand where you're coming from on that and in the yes. 2289 02:57:08,600 --> 02:57:10,440 If you're some degree having an opinion, you pay people. 2290 02:57:10,440 --> 02:57:11,160 You pay people. 2291 02:57:11,360 --> 02:57:12,060 Be on call. 2292 02:57:13,600 --> 02:57:26,180 But right now, the way we work under that operation is we need someone to come back because of excess of call volume, we start making the calls, and our employees are pretty good at responding to that need. 2293 02:57:27,740 --> 02:57:35,640 I don't understand how you do that, but to me it would seem a better process to have people 2294 02:57:35,640 --> 02:57:38,660 actually identified as being on call in case you need them. 2295 02:57:39,720 --> 02:57:40,960 Well, that would be fine. 2296 02:57:41,020 --> 02:57:48,000 I don't have a problem implementing that kind of situation, but that would also increase 2297 02:57:48,000 --> 02:57:53,820 the payroll budget from standpoint to pay in them to find no call time. 2298 02:57:56,690 --> 02:58:01,430 One last question we talked a little bit about this too, because you're talking about staffing, that kind of thing. 2299 02:58:01,710 --> 02:58:07,970 It would be an article 7, the team talks about vacations, and we say that. 2300 02:58:09,110 --> 02:58:13,290 Full-time, beginning in and in, employees have more than one year for our service, 2301 02:58:13,950 --> 02:58:18,430 shall take off at least 3 24-hour shifts per purpose of vacations. 2302 02:58:18,910 --> 02:58:23,430 In your ISF question before, why would we require somebody to take a shift all? 2303 02:58:23,930 --> 02:58:31,890 So that they could draw a vacation, but since it's an accrued benefit, while when we just let them draw it, the four days are off one week whenever it ends. 2304 02:58:32,270 --> 02:58:37,650 Or two days without having to take a shift off, which puts you in a position to have to replace them. 2305 02:58:40,280 --> 02:58:44,480 I mean, while we had that requirement to allow the individuals to... 2306 02:58:45,300 --> 02:58:54,660 One who helped from its statin standpoint, I would say, because if I want to take a day off, I got to take a day off on a schedule day to get the vacation pay. 2307 02:58:54,660 --> 02:58:58,500 when you just let me do it. And I know this is a county thing, but it's in a agreement. 2308 02:58:59,880 --> 02:59:03,260 Well, I wouldn't just let that person if they want to, on the regular four day off, 2309 02:59:03,320 --> 02:59:04,460 want to get paid vacation back. 2310 02:59:05,240 --> 02:59:08,980 Yeah, like I say, the three days off is consistent with county policy. 2311 02:59:09,780 --> 02:59:13,420 And to my knowledge, I've checked around, I don't know if we need a department 2312 02:59:13,820 --> 02:59:19,560 that I can find, it pays, someone that's salary to be off on a salary that's 2313 02:59:19,560 --> 02:59:25,240 under a schedule day, with the vacations on like you're doing it, but Jesus, it's an accrued 2314 02:59:25,240 --> 02:59:33,760 liability for the county. It would allow individuals to make that choice. You wouldn't force 2315 02:59:33,760 --> 02:59:39,680 them to take a day off of work to get paid. I would submit, and they aren't, I mean, whatever 2316 02:59:39,680 --> 02:59:42,860 they are in the year, they could take it all over the year's period of time they wanted. 2317 02:59:43,640 --> 02:59:46,000 I would submit that to be a topic for future negotiations. 2318 02:59:57,690 --> 02:59:58,710 That's all, of course, and 2319 03:00:01,580 --> 03:00:05,760 Those are most, most of those are not in the equation. I've had those questions already. 2320 03:00:13,150 --> 03:00:27,110 If the base pay range for a paramedic, which just uses an example sitting here running numbers, is 42272, then the hourly rate is 14.5165. 2321 03:00:27,110 --> 03:00:30,110 And if you take that and work it all the way out. 2322 03:00:30,370 --> 03:00:33,530 So assuming then that a 24-hour employee works 2323 03:00:33,530 --> 03:00:38,970 2,012 hours in a year, a 12-hour employee would work 1,500. 2324 03:00:39,490 --> 03:00:41,890 So which is 1,456. 2325 03:00:42,530 --> 03:00:46,290 Assuming they were on the same exact rotation and doing just 12 hours. 2326 03:00:46,890 --> 03:00:49,590 And an 8-hour employee would work 2,080 hours. 2327 03:00:50,130 --> 03:00:51,750 You still have to calculate an hour right, 2328 03:00:51,850 --> 03:00:52,790 and that's the question how you did. 2329 03:00:52,790 --> 03:00:59,930 And so what I did, I mean, I guess you could come up with any method you want to use to come up with an hourly rate. 2330 03:01:00,030 --> 03:01:10,250 My point is that based on this and where we've been historically with pay, is that the rate is 14.5165, no matter what hours you work, it's still the same rate. 2331 03:01:18,330 --> 03:01:20,750 Well, our interpretation earlier was not that. 2332 03:01:30,320 --> 03:01:33,740 And I think that's an important question to understand. 2333 03:01:36,820 --> 03:01:45,940 If management has the right to change scheduled to hire temporary people, but doesn't have the right to define what that hourly rate is, then it's meaningless. 2334 03:01:50,530 --> 03:01:55,950 And I've heard multiple times, and we've heard multiple times, and we've had to pay up the same thing, even though the work was ourselves. 2335 03:01:57,770 --> 03:02:02,890 As an interpretation of the agreement, and I can't tell you whether that's accurate or not, I don't know. 2336 03:02:02,890 --> 03:02:03,530 I 2337 03:02:07,500 --> 03:02:13,560 mean, I would not read it that way because we're dealing if you have our pay as opposed to salary pay. 2338 03:02:15,020 --> 03:02:19,740 Well, and it's not salary because we obviously nearly have paid overtime and they work overtime just beyond that. 2339 03:02:19,740 --> 03:02:20,880 They're not raising as well. 2340 03:02:21,200 --> 03:02:21,920 Actually, it's not salary. 2341 03:02:22,420 --> 03:02:23,060 It's not salary. 2342 03:02:23,120 --> 03:02:23,720 It's not salary. 2343 03:02:23,720 --> 03:02:23,920 It's not salary. 2344 03:02:24,540 --> 03:02:25,480 That's a pay range. 2345 03:02:26,060 --> 03:02:29,200 The rate you're doing there pay is calculated by that. 2346 03:02:29,220 --> 03:02:29,920 Work hours not. 2347 03:02:31,040 --> 03:02:31,880 Show up to work. 2348 03:02:31,880 --> 03:02:34,520 Work all you want to home and you get paid 42,000 dollars from that. 2349 03:02:34,560 --> 03:02:35,160 I'm much more. 2350 03:02:35,160 --> 03:02:35,160 I 2351 03:02:40,920 --> 03:02:43,400 don't know if there is. 2352 03:02:44,340 --> 03:02:50,100 If you had the 12 hour shift, when they still make the 14 something an hour, the same. 2353 03:02:50,100 --> 03:02:50,860 To me, they would. 2354 03:02:51,260 --> 03:02:51,320 Yes. 2355 03:02:51,800 --> 03:02:53,020 Because that's my interpretation. 2356 03:02:53,360 --> 03:02:54,400 It's not cheap interpretation. 2357 03:02:55,180 --> 03:02:58,800 So he's going to go a different direction and say that it should be 20 something. 2358 03:02:59,020 --> 03:03:00,600 That hour, whatever it is. 2359 03:03:01,100 --> 03:03:03,880 Which one do you reference in terms of the baseline? 2360 03:03:04,320 --> 03:03:05,200 You're coming up with $20. 2361 03:03:06,200 --> 03:03:07,260 Which one of these salaries? 2362 03:03:07,260 --> 03:03:13,800 It's this fire EMT fire paramedic fire fighter driver, which one you coming up with because I've calculated in 2363 03:03:13,800 --> 03:03:17,540 Malfone, 2008 and 2929-12. 2364 03:03:17,880 --> 03:03:26,380 The 42272 divided by 2080 is 20.32 by 2080. 2365 03:03:26,420 --> 03:03:30,680 Yes, 42272 divided by 280 hours is 20.32. 2366 03:03:31,780 --> 03:03:32,980 I was looking into a second argument. 2367 03:03:33,220 --> 03:03:33,800 That's great. 2368 03:03:34,300 --> 03:03:38,940 So to me, if you had somebody working 12 hours a 12 hour shift and they were 2369 03:03:38,940 --> 03:03:43,360 were supposed to be working, if I were replacing an individual, 2370 03:03:43,620 --> 03:03:46,960 if working one of those at 28, that's what they would get paid 2371 03:03:46,960 --> 03:03:49,160 20,000, 32 cents, if you're looking at that. 2372 03:03:49,160 --> 03:03:50,260 This is an area rate. 2373 03:03:51,060 --> 03:03:55,860 To me, I just divide 20, well that's just my question. 2374 03:03:55,980 --> 03:03:58,240 I just asked, and that's my guess. 2375 03:03:59,220 --> 03:04:07,600 So, so is the firefighter parametric at 42272, that rate is a 2376 03:04:07,600 --> 03:04:17,600 or a salary or a son of a pay rate, pay range, or pay rate, let me hear right, and that 2377 03:04:17,600 --> 03:04:25,960 is developed if you got a facility worked, 2,000, 2,000, 80 hours, right? 2378 03:04:27,870 --> 03:04:32,250 The pay range is identified for the 45,772, right? 2379 03:04:32,430 --> 03:04:36,990 Basically, it says that the minimum salary salaries are far, far, far, far, far, far, far. 2380 03:04:36,990 --> 03:04:49,190 They worked. They worked 29-12 renew. Everybody. Right, as stands right now in 24-ish, they worked 29-12, which translates to that $14 and some change. 2381 03:04:49,290 --> 03:05:00,810 $14.52. Right. And I was saying was, is that right now based on the salary ranges, it says the minimum salary for the parametric is this and other level. 2382 03:05:00,810 --> 03:05:08,310 Okay, so we're talking on the same terms of definition, it's a pay rate, it's not a salary. 2383 03:05:08,850 --> 03:05:12,690 The salary has a differentiation in terms of a definition. 2384 03:05:14,010 --> 03:05:20,830 So if I look at it this way, if I had a person coming in and just answered his question for my own self, 2385 03:05:21,150 --> 03:05:24,190 if I had a person that was coming to work in a 12 hour shift, 2386 03:05:24,190 --> 03:05:30,110 I don't know, I'd not apply to 12, but every number of hours he worked on that specific shift 2387 03:05:30,110 --> 03:05:34,790 or that week he was working at 12 hours shift five days a week, that'd be 60 hours, 2388 03:05:34,910 --> 03:05:37,610 that'd be 60 hours times that great. 2389 03:05:38,730 --> 03:05:44,490 Whatever that was for $14.52. That's how I would calculate it. 2390 03:05:44,890 --> 03:05:49,150 Is that, does that resonate with you or is that what you're thinking or what? 2391 03:05:49,370 --> 03:05:54,050 I mean, I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to understand where he's coming from, 2392 03:05:54,050 --> 03:05:59,430 relative to the fact, if we had a 12-hour shift, his comment was, how do you pay them? 2393 03:05:59,650 --> 03:06:01,410 Because it is a hourly rate. 2394 03:06:02,970 --> 03:06:09,810 So based on that comment, you said 42-72 is the rate for an individual working 29-12. 2395 03:06:11,130 --> 03:06:11,270 Right? 2396 03:06:11,910 --> 03:06:20,070 My interpretation of it would be that the 42-72 would be divided over there, there are hourly 2397 03:06:20,070 --> 03:06:25,070 that we divide over the hours for a week for the year? 2398 03:06:25,390 --> 03:06:25,930 What should we do? 2399 03:06:26,270 --> 03:06:28,390 So if they were working a 40 hour week, 2400 03:06:28,970 --> 03:06:30,270 which is 20, 80 per year, 2401 03:06:31,070 --> 03:06:34,550 then the 40 team would be at the $20 rate. 2402 03:06:34,770 --> 03:06:35,370 There's 40 hours? 2403 03:06:36,290 --> 03:06:39,370 All right, I see the confusion now. 2404 03:06:41,960 --> 03:06:42,120 Yeah. 2405 03:06:43,960 --> 03:06:46,500 The point I don't want to use making I believe 2406 03:06:46,500 --> 03:06:50,200 is that I asked what the firefighter 2407 03:06:50,200 --> 03:06:52,940 What would be the number of hours of individual 2408 03:06:52,940 --> 03:06:55,580 being working during the course of the year? 2409 03:06:55,760 --> 03:06:57,480 The answer was 29-12. 2410 03:06:58,980 --> 03:07:01,280 If I had an individual, say, of carols 2411 03:07:01,280 --> 03:07:04,560 that individual I hired to come in for 12-hour shifts 2412 03:07:04,560 --> 03:07:06,700 five days a week, hypothetically, 2413 03:07:07,420 --> 03:07:09,420 to be a firefighter, paramedic, 2414 03:07:09,620 --> 03:07:15,580 I would pay him $14.52 an hour to work those 60 hours. 2415 03:07:16,240 --> 03:07:24,940 because he, that specific classification, works 29-12, an award-2080, a normal person who 2416 03:07:24,940 --> 03:07:29,980 worked 29-12, and that's, that's come, that's where I'm at on this, that's, that's, that's, 2417 03:07:30,000 --> 03:07:33,660 I think that's where he was asking the questions, at least I thought that's what he was. 2418 03:07:34,200 --> 03:07:39,240 I may be all based, but as the reason I asked, what was the baseline of the Firefighter of Pyramid? 2419 03:07:40,280 --> 03:07:43,260 So if you go down to the Firefighter EMT, what's the baseline on that? 2420 03:07:43,260 --> 03:07:44,740 That's that 29-12 or 28. 2421 03:07:46,240 --> 03:07:49,940 Everybody on the job right now, I'm 27, and you can be in the staff, we're just 29-12. 2422 03:07:50,500 --> 03:07:50,700 And the 2423 03:07:52,910 --> 03:07:55,890 reason I asked that question was the government, 2424 03:07:56,170 --> 03:07:59,510 I'm going to catch some discussion about, you know, 2425 03:07:59,570 --> 03:08:02,530 stabbing different kinds of shows for volumes, 2426 03:08:04,690 --> 03:08:06,250 the comment had been made multiple times 2427 03:08:06,250 --> 03:08:08,870 that we'd had to pay them the same thing 2428 03:08:08,870 --> 03:08:10,670 if we paid somebody to hire it. 2429 03:08:10,870 --> 03:08:11,890 24 hours a day. 2430 03:08:12,630 --> 03:08:16,510 200 or about, times for $200,000 to our view. 2431 03:08:20,020 --> 03:08:20,580 Is that right? 2432 03:08:21,260 --> 03:08:22,240 And that's your attention. 2433 03:08:22,340 --> 03:08:23,980 That's what you're taking. 2434 03:08:28,540 --> 03:08:31,140 Probably a lot of this could have been avoided. 2435 03:08:31,680 --> 03:08:41,020 If years ago the contract had said something like the base range would be 42, whatever 2436 03:08:41,020 --> 03:08:49,020 it is, based upon a standard 29, 12 working schedule to make it clear that it really is an 2437 03:08:49,020 --> 03:08:53,420 hourly rate, but we're giving a range for advancement and steps and all of that. 2438 03:08:53,420 --> 03:08:59,100 I don't think anyone reasonable would say if someone for whatever reason could only work 2439 03:08:59,100 --> 03:09:04,860 three hours a day is going to get under the dollars an hour in order to make a 42 minimum. 2440 03:09:05,420 --> 03:09:10,100 So at that extreme I think everyone agrees that it's an hourly, but I think what I'm 2441 03:09:10,100 --> 03:09:17,720 interpreting the chief to say is you have to try to reconcile this minimum wage with this hourly 2442 03:09:17,720 --> 03:09:24,520 concept and if it became a leverage point it would become an issue arguing for that in order 2443 03:09:24,520 --> 03:09:28,700 to prevent a 12-hour employee, which is taking away management rights. 2444 03:09:29,200 --> 03:09:34,720 Which comes full circle of what I was saying earlier, and that is if it's something that 2445 03:09:34,720 --> 03:09:41,400 just needs a clarification, what is the rush to the contract signing, if you could work 2446 03:09:41,400 --> 03:09:47,260 these questions with a few more meetings with labor. 2447 03:09:48,020 --> 03:09:53,540 It just seems like if management, if you the board, truly want to have 2448 03:09:53,540 --> 03:09:58,560 the flexibility of a 12-hour schedule or certain employees on a 12-hour schedule, 2449 03:09:59,620 --> 03:10:04,520 shouldn't you work out what that true interpretation is and have an agreement with the 2450 03:10:04,520 --> 03:10:07,600 bargaining unit before rather than after you sign a contract? 2451 03:10:08,940 --> 03:10:17,480 Now, if the majority doesn't find that a particularly important issue, well then there's no point in delaying, you know, signing the contract. 2452 03:10:17,480 --> 03:10:28,710 I want to suggest to be the anti-contract since we would place somebody on the white duty based on the 180 hours of monthly file for here, because that's what it said. 2453 03:10:29,290 --> 03:10:35,170 So if I'm on the white duty and can't work before the hours, I'd still be paid for 50 cents. 2454 03:10:35,470 --> 03:10:36,690 Contract says that. 2455 03:10:37,150 --> 03:10:41,050 But no one's ever pushed that issue to this point. 2456 03:10:42,910 --> 03:10:50,090 And I'm looking at the time, and I've asked these questions before we got to this meeting about that. 2457 03:10:50,430 --> 03:10:59,330 It's obvious that over the years it has been interpreted that 2080, we only used 2080 for like that. 2458 03:11:00,150 --> 03:11:09,170 So that would mean that I get paid $20 now rather than working, because my pay really is based on 56 hours away. 2459 03:11:13,010 --> 03:11:22,890 But if I'm a liability, I don't get paid an hourly rate that 29, 12 times a hourly rate, I get paid 2460 03:11:22,890 --> 03:11:25,090 280 times the elderly. 2461 03:11:26,610 --> 03:11:30,650 So in the contract, it's perfect, it's exactly what the chief of the Senate. 2462 03:11:35,580 --> 03:11:44,590 If I make my brain hurts, and this is exactly the reason why much smarter people than I 2463 03:11:44,590 --> 03:11:49,890 have decided to invest in for a fire rescue, which is unlike any other type of business. 2464 03:11:50,330 --> 03:11:53,710 That's why they work. That's why they adopted the 24-hour work schedule. 2465 03:11:53,890 --> 03:11:58,510 Because what happens is if with these part-time positions to cover workflows, 2466 03:11:58,750 --> 03:12:01,190 you have someone that gets off the ship to 24-hour shift. 2467 03:12:01,790 --> 03:12:04,330 And then who do you call back and you cover the 12-hour shift? 2468 03:12:05,090 --> 03:12:10,030 When this person just came up a 24-hour shift, the problems that you're creating 2469 03:12:10,030 --> 03:12:22,010 Our monumental, that's exactly why every single time, in most cases, it goes right back to the fact of the 12-hour shift, because of the animal that you're dealing with. 2470 03:12:22,410 --> 03:12:35,470 And when you start bringing all these formulas and adding 12 hours because of that, this is not a job where you can sit down and say, well, we're going to have 11 calls every single day between the hours of such and such and such and such and such. 2471 03:12:35,470 --> 03:12:42,510 This is a fluid operation. We have no clue. You can do statistics. You can say, well, on an average of what happens. 2472 03:12:43,130 --> 03:12:48,190 But unfortunately, invariably when you think you've got this nail down, you're going to have a situation come up, 2473 03:12:48,290 --> 03:12:51,650 you're going to have a contemplation which is more than one structure of many structures involved, 2474 03:12:52,630 --> 03:12:57,250 where you're going to have to cross people over it. Well, this one's on part-time and he's covering this twelve-hour. 2475 03:12:57,550 --> 03:13:00,650 It is going to be a logistical nightmare. 2476 03:13:00,650 --> 03:13:06,750 And that's exactly why fire departments, I would give that just a 95% of the fire departments. 2477 03:13:06,790 --> 03:13:11,610 There's some little podium counting, you know, what's had no population and it uses mostly volunteers. 2478 03:13:12,690 --> 03:13:20,530 That's why they've gotten away from volunteers trying to cover those heavy times because volunteers are to supplement your paid departments. 2479 03:13:21,110 --> 03:13:28,710 This is a paid department with a work schedule, you need to any other job, because the idea of having to switch over personnel 2480 03:13:28,710 --> 03:13:33,450 in the middle of a day and every 12 hours to cover your busy shifts, you're not so busy 2481 03:13:33,450 --> 03:13:33,990 shifts. 2482 03:13:34,330 --> 03:13:38,470 It's busy or in November, then it is in August, believe me, when I tell you that we're 2483 03:13:38,470 --> 03:13:40,050 going to have brain damage over this. 2484 03:13:40,530 --> 03:13:44,950 And this is exactly why these individuals have worked this schedule out the way they have. 2485 03:13:45,390 --> 03:13:47,250 Because believe me, there's business question. 2486 03:13:48,170 --> 03:13:49,550 It's not the first time this has happened. 2487 03:13:49,550 --> 03:13:51,550 This has been going on for a long time. 2488 03:13:52,010 --> 03:13:57,010 And I think most departments that have dealt with this have used this schedule for a very 2489 03:13:57,010 --> 03:14:00,550 important reason, because it stops the brain damage for the most part. 2490 03:14:00,930 --> 03:14:04,610 You don't have crossover times when you've got people trying to switch over their trucks 2491 03:14:04,610 --> 03:14:06,450 or equipment, and a call comes out. 2492 03:14:06,930 --> 03:14:11,950 That was the whole purpose of a 24-hour shift, so you want to change personal and staff one 2493 03:14:11,950 --> 03:14:15,710 time during 24 hours, so that you don't have people dying on you because you're in a middle 2494 03:14:15,710 --> 03:14:18,330 of a 30-45-minute switch-over on a station. 2495 03:14:19,290 --> 03:14:20,650 This didn't happen by accident. 2496 03:14:21,290 --> 03:14:24,990 It's not, you know, we're reinventing a wheel here that has been invented a long time ago, 2497 03:14:24,990 --> 03:14:31,950 And this is why it was done this way, to make it run as efficiently as cost-effective as possible 2498 03:14:31,950 --> 03:14:34,470 without doing temporary personnel. 2499 03:14:34,690 --> 03:14:38,730 And I've heard brain and voice, NFPA did a study about 15 or 16 years ago. 2500 03:14:38,790 --> 03:14:43,370 And this is not a put down for volunteers, that it takes 10 volunteers equal 1 payment. 2501 03:14:44,490 --> 03:14:49,110 Because of the experience, the fact that they're working as a team, when you bring somebody new in, 2502 03:14:49,110 --> 03:14:53,510 Try running an NFL team when you've got 16 new players switching in an hour or so. 2503 03:14:54,350 --> 03:14:59,610 Any any sport is the same way because that's the whole idea of a team concept. That's why you have shifts. 2504 03:15:00,000 --> 03:15:29,960 So why you have those teams that work with each other each day? And when you start swapping those personnel back and forth, trying to plug them in different spots, boy or boy, like I said, I did it for 21 years. And we tried different things. And I'm telling you, that's exactly why we went back to the way it was because that's the way it works most efficiently. And it works most cost effectively. And I think that unions don't just pull some out of the air. They look at what other counties have done. And they kind of model that after what the other unions have done successful. 2505 03:15:29,960 --> 03:15:35,400 So, you can argue this back and forth, but you can see the confusion just between us. 2506 03:15:35,700 --> 03:15:41,860 Well, you know, as I mentioned earlier before lunch, of the eight email responses, 2507 03:15:41,860 --> 03:15:48,980 that you've got six of those had staff that worked very hours for volume. 2508 03:15:50,280 --> 03:15:52,300 They're not in a mix with you 24 hours staff. 2509 03:15:52,300 --> 03:15:53,080 They're filling in. 2510 03:15:53,080 --> 03:15:56,180 They're working a regular shift with its 8 a.m. 2511 03:15:56,180 --> 03:16:02,700 the four or noon to eight, they're filling in for that volume, and yes, it's not going 2512 03:16:02,700 --> 03:16:08,380 to be that way every day, but you staffed toward that. The other option you have is 2513 03:16:08,380 --> 03:16:18,220 you just staffed and over-stab basically to cover that, let me ask you a question. So I understand 2514 03:16:18,220 --> 03:16:21,400 what you're coming from. Are you talking about if we have how many men do we currently 2515 03:16:21,400 --> 03:16:28,020 a full time. 36? 36. Are you talking about adding more staff to 36? Yes. Okay. So, 2516 03:16:28,040 --> 03:16:32,440 where do you think you're going to save money that way if you pay in the 36? I mean, 2517 03:16:32,540 --> 03:16:37,040 another eight or 10 firefighters with their medics and you have to pay them. Where are they going to 2518 03:16:37,040 --> 03:16:42,180 do on the time that we're not using? What do they do then? What's their job then? You're talking 2519 03:16:42,180 --> 03:16:47,260 about hiring somebody to work with full-time job, 40 hours a week or 50 hours a week, depending 2520 03:16:48,440 --> 03:16:50,740 And only the busy is times, that what you said. 2521 03:16:51,040 --> 03:16:51,740 But that's over there. 2522 03:16:51,920 --> 03:16:56,620 You would staff it based on statistics that chief gave us, and you'd make the assumption 2523 03:16:56,620 --> 03:17:00,620 that we're going to work 11 to 7, whatever the day or hour it is, and that's what we're 2524 03:17:00,620 --> 03:17:00,900 going to work. 2525 03:17:01,120 --> 03:17:02,580 Those two people are going to be on ship. 2526 03:17:02,820 --> 03:17:05,680 It might be four people eventually if that's what it proves to be. 2527 03:17:06,680 --> 03:17:11,040 You don't have them scattered all over on the all-power of slow times. 2528 03:17:11,460 --> 03:17:12,820 You have them where your body is. 2529 03:17:13,340 --> 03:17:14,040 That's what we're talking about. 2530 03:17:14,200 --> 03:17:16,260 We're not talking about not having people. 2531 03:17:16,260 --> 03:17:21,180 And actually what we're talking about is the ability of the chief or the man to manage the department. 2532 03:17:21,620 --> 03:17:22,360 I understand what you're saying. 2533 03:17:22,480 --> 03:17:29,800 One of the reasons, one of the benefits to firefighters is the fact that they can work to 24-hour shift, 2534 03:17:30,140 --> 03:17:33,420 and they've got two days and on their days off, one to recover from the first shift, 2535 03:17:33,920 --> 03:17:36,400 and the other to either whatever way they want to watch. 2536 03:17:36,600 --> 03:17:38,140 Their kids at home with their wife's work. 2537 03:17:38,360 --> 03:17:40,000 There's a lot of different things they can do, 2538 03:17:40,440 --> 03:17:45,820 and so one of the enticements of that job when they go into it is the fact of their work schedule. 2539 03:17:45,820 --> 03:17:59,740 You know, and if you look at most jobs, when you have a starting salary, and this is with a new salary structure, of $34,000, $35,000, and you take a firefight and goes into a job in $35,000, they can't feed your family on that. 2540 03:18:00,360 --> 03:18:09,700 So one of the reasons you brought me into the fire service was I knew I loved the fire service, but it allowed me to go out and have secondary income, so I could work the job with the fire. 2541 03:18:09,700 --> 03:18:15,340 I've always said, you know, if you want to pay a firefighter 65-70,000 dollars a year to start, then that's fine. 2542 03:18:15,920 --> 03:18:23,680 But that's not reality, you know, and that's why I think where this is headed is that unless you've been there and done that, it's hard to explain to people 2543 03:18:23,680 --> 03:18:31,780 that when you bring in individuals and you start changing those words schedules and try to make those words schedules when you have your quote unquote busy as times. 2544 03:18:32,080 --> 03:18:36,340 You know, I mean, that's all that's good and paper, but that's not reality for the fire service. 2545 03:18:36,340 --> 03:18:44,140 You can look at your time together, which mostly are medical calls, because that's what you're going to run at those times. 2546 03:18:44,680 --> 03:18:50,400 But what happens is when you don't have those people there on that shift and you get a structure fire where we did, 2547 03:18:50,600 --> 03:18:57,460 where we had the silos, where we had more people from outside this county, working that fire than we had that were employed by this county. 2548 03:18:58,000 --> 03:18:59,920 That's the kind of thing you end up with. 2549 03:18:59,920 --> 03:19:15,820 And that's the part that concerns me is are we going to have enough staff, you know, to handle those situations where you don't have to bring in part time people, because part time people, like I said, that's a natural autistic than it and a VA in. 2550 03:19:16,140 --> 03:19:27,040 And that was their guidelines not the fire department, so, you know, it says like anything else, you know, you're setting up a policy, you're setting up a structure, employment structure. 2551 03:19:27,040 --> 03:19:30,060 that's been tried, tested, and proven over, 2552 03:19:30,080 --> 03:19:31,600 that I don't know, 70 years, 80 years, 2553 03:19:32,500 --> 03:19:34,140 and that's what, that's the best thing they came up 2554 03:19:34,140 --> 03:19:38,480 with the best serve and respond to all calls when you were needed. 2555 03:19:38,860 --> 03:19:39,880 And the Faraday Department is different 2556 03:19:39,880 --> 03:19:42,940 because you only respond when you're called, when you need it. 2557 03:19:43,000 --> 03:19:45,880 Unlike if you work at Windick Sea and your bag and girls resolve it, 2558 03:19:45,940 --> 03:19:49,200 it's a different whole different, and that's the hardest thing, 2559 03:19:49,480 --> 03:19:52,340 and I know it's hard to explain to people that have never been involved 2560 03:19:52,340 --> 03:19:55,240 in the Faraday Service, and it is, it's complicated. 2561 03:19:55,240 --> 03:20:00,720 and it's complicated explain that to somebody, but but I see it work and I try to see 2562 03:20:00,720 --> 03:20:05,180 different things you know implemented and ultimately it's a failure. It doesn't work 2563 03:20:05,180 --> 03:20:14,020 and they come right back to the 24-hour shift. Chief, outside of the shift work that we just went through, 2564 03:20:17,360 --> 03:20:23,220 I gotta say I probably missed this myself so I'll hold my hand. Why would I face my own light 2565 03:20:23,220 --> 03:20:32,420 at a 40-hour rate, if the person was an individual who was making a 20, let me just put it 2566 03:20:32,420 --> 03:20:39,260 this way, why are we using 20 hours for a light duty rate and not the same rate the individual 2567 03:20:39,260 --> 03:20:46,780 makes on a normal day basis? I'm confused on that. I'm sorry, I probably missed this myself, 2568 03:20:47,120 --> 03:20:48,460 so I'm going to back up. 2569 03:20:48,460 --> 03:20:56,520 I did too to hear that was my question so the same thing they make a higher pet this is why I'm sitting here telling you this is 2570 03:20:57,040 --> 03:20:58,100 You have to determine 2571 03:20:58,680 --> 03:21:03,260 Where's the base and this is not at all to argue with you chair. I'm I'm just saying 2572 03:21:04,000 --> 03:21:06,760 That it's either the bases either 2573 03:21:06,760 --> 03:21:12,240 42 to 72 is your number or the basis some hourly rate and maybe we're saying the same thing 2574 03:21:12,240 --> 03:21:23,180 I think we're right right and so and the hourly rate in time some hours is why the schedule in the Union contract says 42272 so is the hourly 2575 03:21:23,180 --> 03:21:26,930 hourly rate really a 20 dollar and 32 cents hourly rate and if it is 2576 03:21:28,060 --> 03:21:37,650 there at the 28 you know if it is there then over time on top of that somehow some averages come up over the years to get to you to where we're out today 2577 03:21:37,650 --> 03:21:44,790 But I think the whole reason is that the assumption is that the 42, 272, I'm just using that for the 2578 03:21:44,790 --> 03:21:55,650 Paramix as an example we've been talking, that the base pay is the that dollar amount, and so if you change it to 2579 03:21:55,650 --> 03:22:02,070 Okay, you're only 40 hours and you're gonna get paid the $20 dollar an hour for it so that your base pay is always the same 2580 03:22:04,250 --> 03:22:06,270 I see what you did 2581 03:22:06,270 --> 03:22:10,430 I mean, not you personally, but I understand what you're telling me. 2582 03:22:11,370 --> 03:22:14,270 It's just to me, I want to light duty a person. 2583 03:22:15,910 --> 03:22:19,670 His salary should be based on the same base hours 2584 03:22:19,670 --> 03:22:22,290 that his salary has been based upon. 2585 03:22:22,750 --> 03:22:23,150 There's paper. 2586 03:22:23,690 --> 03:22:28,950 I mean, just from where I come from. 2587 03:22:29,210 --> 03:22:29,910 Okay, let's clear that way. 2588 03:22:30,340 --> 03:22:40,560 If it was, if it is, if that rate for that, fireman, paramedic, of a way it was, it's $42,000, $274,000, and it's a 2589 03:22:40,560 --> 03:22:46,480 chief articulate a few minutes ago that that's based on an individual work in 2912. 2590 03:22:47,680 --> 03:22:54,580 Then I would assume that if he was on he or she was on light duty, their base rate would be 2912. 2591 03:22:55,120 --> 03:22:56,060 They're hourly rate. 2592 03:22:57,300 --> 03:23:02,420 to the hour late to stay the same, even though they get only working eight hours instead of 24. 2593 03:23:04,180 --> 03:23:04,640 That's logical. 2594 03:23:05,440 --> 03:23:06,300 It's light duty. 2595 03:23:07,880 --> 03:23:10,300 I mean, that's the same hour, right? 2596 03:23:12,000 --> 03:23:16,520 But I'm just trying to calculate here. 2597 03:23:17,060 --> 03:23:18,760 So person is on light duty. 2598 03:23:19,580 --> 03:23:24,700 Are you saying that you're guaranteed, let's say, I'm the firefighter? 2599 03:23:24,700 --> 03:23:27,280 And I'm trying to understand it, so I'm not arguing with this. 2600 03:23:27,340 --> 03:23:33,560 I'm the firefighter, and you're telling me that I'm guaranteed $42,274 per year. 2601 03:23:35,300 --> 03:23:36,260 $42,274. 2602 03:23:36,380 --> 03:23:36,720 Correct. 2603 03:23:37,280 --> 03:23:40,140 If you work the 2009 or 12 hours, yes. 2604 03:23:40,800 --> 03:23:41,160 But if I'm... 2605 03:23:41,160 --> 03:23:47,140 But it's more than that, I mean, that's just the base plus you've got to add in the overtime 2606 03:23:47,140 --> 03:23:47,560 automatically. 2607 03:23:47,840 --> 03:23:53,200 Not just somebody, so if I go, so I've seen where you're at right now about the light 2608 03:23:53,200 --> 03:23:53,460 duty. 2609 03:23:53,460 --> 03:24:06,820 So if I go like duty for a year, I'm going to be based, you're going to based my hourly rate or my hours on based on 28 in order for me to make the 42 to 74, that's how you did. 2610 03:24:07,180 --> 03:24:08,880 That's all right. 2611 03:24:11,340 --> 03:24:16,160 That's assuming that the person that is on like duty for a year. 2612 03:24:16,160 --> 03:24:18,760 It's going like this for a week. 2613 03:24:19,380 --> 03:24:19,800 No, no. 2614 03:24:22,400 --> 03:24:28,160 It's assuming at the end of the day that that individual is going to make at the end 2615 03:24:28,160 --> 03:24:36,420 of the year, his or her base salary is 42 to 74 in order to make sure that that person 2616 03:24:36,420 --> 03:24:39,640 says like duty for 30 days. 2617 03:24:41,220 --> 03:24:47,420 It's automatically going to change over to be divided on by 2080, so his hourly rate is higher, 2618 03:24:47,420 --> 03:24:51,840 So he or she maintains the baseline sour. 2619 03:24:52,000 --> 03:24:53,120 Right, that's the objective. 2620 03:24:53,220 --> 03:24:56,880 And that's what I'm trying to help us all understand is you have to have some base. 2621 03:24:56,880 --> 03:24:57,800 What is the baseline? 2622 03:24:58,080 --> 03:24:59,700 Is it the hours or is it the dollars? 2623 03:25:00,500 --> 03:25:03,740 And you know, I know the term I keep saying hourly rate, but I've got to multiply that out 2624 03:25:03,740 --> 03:25:05,960 to buy something to have some idea. 2625 03:25:06,120 --> 03:25:08,080 How does that compare to everyone else? 2626 03:25:08,540 --> 03:25:09,440 I understand what you did. 2627 03:25:10,200 --> 03:25:16,350 And so I understand that the fact really means that the pay rate, they get the right. 2628 03:25:16,350 --> 03:25:21,990 pay rate, the base pay rate for an individual line that's starting off is 42 to 74. 2629 03:25:22,790 --> 03:25:31,890 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, that individual is based on 42 to 74. 2630 03:25:32,470 --> 03:25:40,010 If that individual happens to get hurt during the course of the year, and he or she is out 30 days, 2631 03:25:41,150 --> 03:25:46,210 they're going to make sure that they still make that 42 to 74 by 2632 03:25:46,210 --> 03:25:49,570 change the calculation to 28 for that 30 days. 2633 03:25:50,850 --> 03:25:52,570 So that's what I'm saying, the base is 40 days. 2634 03:25:52,570 --> 03:25:54,090 The base is 42 days, so. 2635 03:25:54,770 --> 03:25:56,690 So if that's the base, then it doesn't matter. 2636 03:25:56,770 --> 03:25:57,910 And that was my first response. 2637 03:25:58,130 --> 03:26:02,110 It doesn't matter what the base is based on an hourly rate. 2638 03:26:02,910 --> 03:26:06,150 You're dealing with hourly paid positions. 2639 03:26:06,190 --> 03:26:07,710 You're not based on the salary. 2640 03:26:10,160 --> 03:26:15,760 So the base is a calculation of 29, 12 times an hourly rate. 2641 03:26:16,460 --> 03:26:16,760 Right. 2642 03:26:16,760 --> 03:26:25,960 I don't disagree with your assumption. That is one way to assume correct. The other way to assume is that 2643 03:26:26,340 --> 03:26:29,700 No matter what hours they work, they would always make 42 to 72. 2644 03:26:31,220 --> 03:26:33,080 And then you change them to a salary person. 2645 03:26:33,540 --> 03:26:33,620 Right. 2646 03:26:36,740 --> 03:26:38,680 Okay. Let me ask a question. 2647 03:26:39,900 --> 03:26:47,540 Okay, light duty means that this person is going to make the same salary that he did before he got injured. 2648 03:26:47,540 --> 03:26:51,060 but he can't do half the job. 2649 03:26:51,660 --> 03:26:54,140 Right, he will have a lot of duties assigned to him to. 2650 03:26:54,140 --> 03:26:58,780 Right, but still is not doing his $20 an hour job. 2651 03:26:58,980 --> 03:26:59,540 He can't go. 2652 03:26:59,780 --> 03:27:01,300 And I don't mean anything about this. 2653 03:27:01,520 --> 03:27:02,800 I mean, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. 2654 03:27:02,820 --> 03:27:02,940 That's true. 2655 03:27:04,900 --> 03:27:10,020 No matter what they do, if they come back to work and they can't do their full job, 2656 03:27:10,020 --> 03:27:12,580 they're still being paid the same doubt rate, 2657 03:27:12,800 --> 03:27:16,160 hourly rate to do that the other duties they can do. 2658 03:27:17,540 --> 03:27:19,440 You should probably just pay them any different. 2659 03:27:19,800 --> 03:27:21,600 I don't think they changed the word in the yearly rating. 2660 03:27:22,120 --> 03:27:22,980 Because that's what it is. 2661 03:27:23,020 --> 03:27:26,280 It's 42, 2, 74 is a yearly rating of the individual. 2662 03:27:27,040 --> 03:27:35,540 Well, one of the theories behind the light duty is if you have a person that does say to get injured off duty, they broke a light. 2663 03:27:36,280 --> 03:27:37,380 They have one or two options. 2664 03:27:37,720 --> 03:27:44,560 They can, if they are acceptable and medically cleared, and we have a position to use them in, 2665 03:27:44,560 --> 03:27:50,600 We can bring them in on the 40-hour weekend, get some productivity out of them, whether it's 2666 03:27:50,600 --> 03:27:55,120 doing pre-plants or whether it's doing some kind of administrative function, teaching 2667 03:27:55,120 --> 03:27:59,300 whatever it is, versus paying on their full salary to sit at home. 2668 03:27:59,860 --> 03:28:05,800 Now, you gotta keep in mind that when they come in on a 40-hour week, they're making the 2669 03:28:05,800 --> 03:28:12,880 same yearly salary, but all of the other things associated with the 29-12, all the built-in 2670 03:28:12,880 --> 03:28:19,420 required over time and all that goes away. So in theory someone working for 40 hour a week 2671 03:28:19,420 --> 03:28:25,200 for one year would make less money than a firefighter parent meeting working 29-12. 2672 03:28:26,180 --> 03:28:34,100 And I don't disagree if you're using an hourly rate of $14.32 or 52 cents. I understand 2673 03:28:34,100 --> 03:28:41,080 why it's why philosophically it changed and it's almost at this point as what Margaret was 2674 03:28:41,080 --> 03:28:47,500 say I think is that you can come in light do you make more money on an hourly rate than you 2675 03:28:47,500 --> 03:28:52,180 are if you were working. But the function isn't about the hourly rate. The function is 2676 03:28:52,180 --> 03:28:59,300 about the yearly rate which is 42,274 which is the base rate. So you can cut this 9 ways 2677 03:28:59,300 --> 03:29:09,460 to Sunday but if I'm out 2 months on disability, the objective here is I'm going to make 42,274 2678 03:29:09,460 --> 03:29:11,100 one way or the other. 2679 03:29:13,490 --> 03:29:18,070 And I may sit, if I sit at home on light duty or excuse me, if 2680 03:29:18,070 --> 03:29:26,670 I sit at home, I'm still making 42 to 74. If I come in on light duty for those 60 days, I 2681 03:29:26,670 --> 03:29:33,510 work safer example for a light duty. I'm going to make the base pay or the base core 2682 03:29:33,510 --> 03:29:39,690 and core will make $20, the 32 cents an hour. So that at the end of the year, my W2 2683 03:29:39,690 --> 03:29:46,650 almost say 42,000 274. That's all this is or whatever it is. Remember the show? 2684 03:29:46,950 --> 03:29:50,290 Can I ask the question? It's because I've never been involved with 2685 03:29:50,290 --> 03:29:55,350 a Spartans' coffin all but I do have people but I talk to them and I say well I can't 2686 03:29:55,350 --> 03:29:59,970 make ends meet because they get injured on the job but they're only drawing six. 2687 03:30:01,700 --> 03:30:15,620 So if we're to support must come into our play with our employees, not just five fathers, but if they pay a piece of the salary and then the employee can use their time to make up the difference. 2688 03:30:16,940 --> 03:30:20,140 Right, but I'm just saying we don't have to have them on my duty. 2689 03:30:20,140 --> 03:30:30,760 don't have to, but we, it's workers' comp believes that if you put an employee back to work, it increases their ability to return on a timely basis. 2690 03:30:31,220 --> 03:30:36,440 But if you leave them out and give them nothing else to do, they sit home, they tend to not want to come back. 2691 03:30:38,290 --> 03:30:40,450 So they encourage us to have a light duty program. 2692 03:30:40,450 --> 03:30:41,250 Oh, 2693 03:30:43,590 --> 03:30:50,270 I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm trying to understand, a light duty and a 2694 03:30:50,270 --> 03:30:54,430 sitting at a desk, if you're able to do that all day, this, I can see if when you 2695 03:30:54,430 --> 03:30:56,790 get your salary, but I don't know. 2696 03:31:02,600 --> 03:31:06,160 The reason I use that example, because I think that support 2697 03:31:06,160 --> 03:31:09,980 achieves interpretation of what you have to pay somebody that works 2698 03:31:09,980 --> 03:31:11,980 something other than a 24-hour shift. 2699 03:31:12,760 --> 03:31:14,560 That's why I use it. 2700 03:31:14,560 --> 03:31:21,440 and that tends to support his interpretation of the agreement that if you had somebody 2701 03:31:21,440 --> 03:31:28,980 work eight hour shifts five days a week, 40 hours for surge, high volume, whatever, 2702 03:31:29,600 --> 03:31:33,560 then you would have to pay them $20 an hour. 2703 03:31:35,480 --> 03:31:39,620 That's what I say, that's the reason I brought it up, because I think that supports 2704 03:31:39,620 --> 03:31:41,180 the chief's interpretation, 2705 03:31:43,710 --> 03:31:46,990 may be incorrect, but I think that's why, you know, that's what is 2706 03:31:46,990 --> 03:31:51,910 a peer looking at what are tampering to, you know, why would you do that? 2707 03:31:52,550 --> 03:31:56,090 Obviously, we're not calculating the light that you've based on the hour and a ray, we're 2708 03:31:56,090 --> 03:32:00,350 based on it on some calculation other than the hour and a ray. 2709 03:32:01,470 --> 03:32:07,270 But sure, one thing is confusing me on this, you know, in office sector, light duty is 2710 03:32:07,270 --> 03:32:12,850 same hours everyone else is working but perhaps a job that is less strenuous they can work 2711 03:32:12,850 --> 03:32:18,190 at a desk as opposed to on a ladder. But are you talking about light duty in the context 2712 03:32:18,190 --> 03:32:25,030 of firefighting to be not only a light or physical duty but a light or number of hours as well. 2713 03:32:25,290 --> 03:32:30,230 Because if the person was at the desk for their entire shift like everyone else for the 29, 2714 03:32:30,230 --> 03:32:34,210 And you know, 29-12, well, then the hourly rate wouldn't 2715 03:32:34,210 --> 03:32:34,570 show you. 2716 03:32:34,570 --> 03:32:38,110 And that's what I didn't understand. 2717 03:32:38,750 --> 03:32:38,770 Yeah. 2718 03:32:38,770 --> 03:32:43,090 So they actually lessen the hours as well as lessen the due to it. 2719 03:32:43,310 --> 03:32:44,310 How kind of that 40 hours? 2720 03:32:44,630 --> 03:32:44,910 Gotcha. 2721 03:32:45,830 --> 03:32:48,490 But the point of it was, this is at the end of the year. 2722 03:32:49,710 --> 03:32:50,650 You're going to make 40,000. 2723 03:32:50,750 --> 03:32:52,310 42,000 to 74. 2724 03:32:52,550 --> 03:32:55,050 That's all they're trying to do is make it the end of the year. 2725 03:32:55,230 --> 03:32:56,010 It's a yearly rate. 2726 03:32:56,250 --> 03:32:56,890 That's it. 2727 03:32:56,890 --> 03:33:20,270 It doesn't make one difference what you do between A and Z. At the end of Z, you're going to make 42 to 74, and in the contract what they've done, if I'm not mistaken, is in order for light duty, if the person's on light duty, and order for them to make the right amount of money at the end of the year, they use the 28 calculation. 2728 03:33:21,690 --> 03:33:28,430 So, which increases the hourly rate, which increases the hourly rate, if you were assuming there was an hourly rate to start with. 2729 03:33:30,320 --> 03:33:37,400 I'm not assuming it's an hourly rate here, I'm assuming there's a yearly rate, and the yearly rate is 42,000 to 74. 2730 03:33:38,180 --> 03:33:49,160 But your assumption would mean that I could not hire somebody for eight hours a day, but there's a week, without paying them, the day for eight or 1450, I'd have to pay them a base rate of 22,000. 2731 03:33:51,180 --> 03:34:00,960 Well, actually, your hourly rate is a fiction that appears to be used just for over time in that type of thing, because you've got to get to not always get much stamps. 2732 03:34:01,480 --> 03:34:02,160 What does that mean? 2733 03:34:02,160 --> 03:34:04,620 Just 3% of what? 2734 03:34:04,800 --> 03:34:07,080 Based on the base pay range. 2735 03:34:07,680 --> 03:34:10,440 So we still have 3% to the base pay range. 2736 03:34:10,800 --> 03:34:12,580 And then that extent doesn't lose weight. 2737 03:34:13,180 --> 03:34:16,820 It's not, you know, when you calculate hourly rate based on them of the large works. 2738 03:34:16,820 --> 03:34:24,720 But I would say that the base assumption is that the pay is going to be the base pay of that range 2739 03:34:26,220 --> 03:34:31,240 That is and then you decide okay that after that you have you divided by the number of officers works 2740 03:34:32,420 --> 03:34:34,300 That's how I say you've got to come to an assumption 2741 03:34:35,900 --> 03:34:39,240 You can't come to an assumption you have to come to an agreement or what it means 2742 03:34:40,560 --> 03:34:43,580 Okay, you just have to assume that I'm saying that that's fine 2743 03:34:43,580 --> 03:34:47,080 Now, there's a difference between an assumption and a grammar, because my interpretation 2744 03:34:47,080 --> 03:34:49,280 is different from choice, she is, we can't agree. 2745 03:34:51,380 --> 03:34:51,640 Okay. 2746 03:34:52,380 --> 03:34:57,280 You can ask him, you just want to add, this is an interesting, in my play, because I know where 2747 03:34:57,280 --> 03:34:57,820 you're going. 2748 03:34:58,880 --> 03:35:03,500 But if you're doing half the word, as you get half the salary, what do you do with a female firefighter 2749 03:35:03,500 --> 03:35:04,340 when she gets pregnant? 2750 03:35:04,760 --> 03:35:05,760 How do you handle that? 2751 03:35:06,220 --> 03:35:10,160 I know it's as part of FMLA, it enters into that, but I mean, you're going to pay her because 2752 03:35:10,160 --> 03:35:11,620 She's pregnant and can't do the full job. 2753 03:35:11,720 --> 03:35:12,800 You're going to cut her salary down. 2754 03:35:13,500 --> 03:35:13,660 Yeah. 2755 03:35:13,660 --> 03:35:17,140 The likelihood of policy is the part of life. 2756 03:35:19,020 --> 03:35:20,020 That's what I said. 2757 03:35:20,320 --> 03:35:22,700 There's so many variables to this. 2758 03:35:23,160 --> 03:35:24,900 And this is exactly what I was talking about. 2759 03:35:24,940 --> 03:35:29,320 When you start trying to bring in Chris Cross over back and forth outside down, this one 2760 03:35:29,320 --> 03:35:34,420 and bring this one in part up, you're creating a nightmare for administration, you're creating 2761 03:35:34,420 --> 03:35:37,580 a nightmare to try to track where this is all going. 2762 03:35:37,800 --> 03:35:39,060 And I think that's the whole idea. 2763 03:35:39,060 --> 03:35:44,580 is that if you put somebody goes out, you know, and it's much better, like Robby just said, 2764 03:35:45,040 --> 03:35:49,520 they're, when they're working, doing a job that they're not trained to do, Secretary 2765 03:35:49,520 --> 03:35:53,080 of Work, they want to get back through it, they're regular job, and I think it's an incentive 2766 03:35:53,680 --> 03:35:56,240 for them to get back to their regular job as quickly as possible. 2767 03:35:56,320 --> 03:35:59,320 I think, you know, workers come, believes that as well. 2768 03:35:59,860 --> 03:36:01,140 So this is the whole plan I'm making. 2769 03:36:01,320 --> 03:36:06,240 I mean, we can sit here for the next five hours and discuss hypotheticals, you know, and 2770 03:36:06,240 --> 03:36:07,200 there's a million of them out there. 2771 03:36:07,200 --> 03:36:08,300 I'm just trying to do. 2772 03:36:08,860 --> 03:36:09,100 Exactly. 2773 03:36:09,580 --> 03:36:11,180 I don't know. 2774 03:36:11,740 --> 03:36:11,960 I don't know. 2775 03:36:12,180 --> 03:36:12,620 I can't. 2776 03:36:13,500 --> 03:36:14,200 You're a person. 2777 03:36:15,100 --> 03:36:16,760 We're bringing that to the interpretation. 2778 03:36:17,280 --> 03:36:18,040 I'm just going to tell him. 2779 03:36:19,220 --> 03:36:20,120 Ask this question. 2780 03:36:21,360 --> 03:36:23,840 Okay, Rob, you make a salary. 2781 03:36:25,120 --> 03:36:25,960 But do you make an eye?

You have a yearly range. 2802 03:37:23,590 --> 03:37:26,170 It's great. It's going to make that. 2803 03:37:27,250 --> 03:37:27,390 Right. 2804 03:37:27,790 --> 03:37:28,890 Probably we should have a base. 2805 03:37:29,070 --> 03:37:29,890 So just look at it. 2806 03:37:30,000 --> 03:37:44,840 This simple math, I mean, we've got to come to agreements about where the base understanding is, is that the hourly rate, or is that the annual dollar mouth, they're going to make in a year. It's one of those two things, because the hours is what they have to take it by. 2807 03:37:44,840 --> 03:37:49,240 But he's not there, but not there, Robby, because if they don't work, they don't get paid. 2808 03:37:50,960 --> 03:37:51,600 No, I'm really. 2809 03:37:51,600 --> 03:37:54,120 If a firefighter does not, that's what you were saying. 2810 03:37:54,440 --> 03:37:58,540 If a firefighter does not work, they don't get paid. 2811 03:37:58,980 --> 03:37:59,940 They don't. 2812 03:38:00,200 --> 03:38:01,840 They get paid by the hour work. 2813 03:38:02,240 --> 03:38:06,360 So it can't be a base salary because they don't, they're not guaranteed. 2814 03:38:06,360 --> 03:38:08,040 They're not guaranteed to the base salary. 2815 03:38:08,540 --> 03:38:12,000 I said it was an annual dollar amount you want them to earn. 2816 03:38:12,740 --> 03:38:13,540 It works the other way. 2817 03:38:13,540 --> 03:38:16,840 I mean, the numbers that you see here is a pay range. 2818 03:38:17,660 --> 03:38:20,880 It says that this is the base salary when we hire you. 2819 03:38:21,140 --> 03:38:23,680 But it also tells you that this is the top of the range. 2820 03:38:24,340 --> 03:38:27,180 So it tells you that if you work here X number of years, 2821 03:38:28,100 --> 03:38:30,760 once you go through your merits tied to your evaluation, 2822 03:38:31,720 --> 03:38:35,340 the maximum that you're going to make is the maximum of the range. 2823 03:38:36,140 --> 03:38:40,080 So if that range is never changed in the 20 years you work here, 2824 03:38:40,400 --> 03:38:43,240 once you hit top out, you're top out, you make no money. 2825 03:38:43,240 --> 03:38:47,780 period. You know, the pay rate, but you get an annual bounce. You'll get an annual bonus 2826 03:38:47,780 --> 03:38:54,380 in front of the two, you're mere, yes. Well, we would be better off to just change the chart 2827 03:38:54,380 --> 03:39:00,240 in the contract to divide all those annualized dollars, before we'll just use the same 2828 03:39:00,240 --> 03:39:05,820 example the 42 T72, by the way, the 2912, the 2165. 2829 03:39:06,340 --> 03:39:10,920 The reason I ask that question is because the chief's interpretation of the contract 2830 03:39:10,920 --> 03:39:18,860 that it is written as it exists, you cannot hire somebody for less than 24 hours of, for 2831 03:39:18,860 --> 03:39:26,900 that person working eight hours a day, five days a week, $22 now versus how we calculated 2832 03:39:26,900 --> 03:39:30,880 everybody else at 1450, and I would suggest that's not logical and would not be fair. 2833 03:39:33,130 --> 03:39:33,410 But he can ask. 2834 03:39:33,410 --> 03:39:34,310 Because that's his interpretation. 2835 03:39:35,370 --> 03:39:36,510 I would not interpret it. 2836 03:39:36,510 --> 03:39:38,750 I would not interpret it that way. 2837 03:39:40,110 --> 03:39:46,290 Because I, it's a hourly paid position because that's how like wage and hour-long the 2838 03:39:46,290 --> 03:39:46,850 finds it. 2839 03:39:46,870 --> 03:39:47,390 I understand. 2840 03:39:48,390 --> 03:39:52,630 You could, I guess you could make a salary job, but I don't know that. 2841 03:39:52,850 --> 03:39:54,830 Because they could make, they could make enough money. 2842 03:39:54,830 --> 03:39:56,850 pressure, we could make a minimum of money, we would be sorry. 2843 03:39:58,410 --> 03:40:02,090 You could make it salary, but I think the job duties would still require an overtime. 2844 03:40:03,230 --> 03:40:04,850 Well, yeah. 2845 03:40:05,490 --> 03:40:05,570 Yeah. 2846 03:40:05,610 --> 03:40:06,230 I'm asking a question. 2847 03:40:06,370 --> 03:40:09,610 I mean, many times, I don't want to clarify this. 2848 03:40:10,770 --> 03:40:15,270 He said you hired you on a proper hour basis, and I don't have your contact in front of 2849 03:40:15,270 --> 03:40:17,830 me, but wasn't it for a certain amount per year? 2850 03:40:18,030 --> 03:40:18,330 Yes. 2851 03:40:18,550 --> 03:40:18,790 Okay. 2852 03:40:19,670 --> 03:40:24,330 But he didn't say we hired me for an hourly rate, he said for payroll purposes, I'm paid 2853 03:40:24,330 --> 03:40:26,730 by an hourly rate, that comes out to me. 2854 03:40:27,330 --> 03:40:28,010 What short? 2855 03:40:28,290 --> 03:40:32,170 A U-page compensatory time, if you were 66 hours one week? 2856 03:40:32,570 --> 03:40:35,410 No, I only get paid based on the total. 2857 03:40:35,530 --> 03:40:37,490 You get paid to $1,000, you're going to match your work. 2858 03:40:37,910 --> 03:40:38,290 Right, right. 2859 03:40:38,410 --> 03:40:40,230 And I don't get paid to $1,000 a year. 2860 03:40:41,930 --> 03:40:43,670 Maybe one of these days. 2861 03:40:44,970 --> 03:40:46,810 No, but see what I'm saying. 2862 03:40:46,990 --> 03:40:48,390 What I'm saying is extremely confusing. 2863 03:40:48,650 --> 03:40:50,690 If it's confusing to us, it's bourbon. 2864 03:40:50,690 --> 03:40:55,230 There's a map to do what the public is going through trying to figure all this out, you know? 2865 03:40:55,350 --> 03:40:56,950 That's the most difficult part to do. 2866 03:40:57,110 --> 03:40:59,150 Do we want to get the best bank, of course? 2867 03:40:59,750 --> 03:41:04,570 But the fact is, when it gets into this point of trying to, you know, go through all these, you know, 2868 03:41:05,550 --> 03:41:09,710 convoluted issues with, you know, 12 hours versus 10 hours versus 24. 2869 03:41:10,150 --> 03:41:11,510 It gives it's hard for you to follow. 2870 03:41:12,030 --> 03:41:13,010 And I lived it. 2871 03:41:13,230 --> 03:41:14,630 You know, and that's all I'm saying. 2872 03:41:14,770 --> 03:41:14,970 Right. 2873 03:41:15,050 --> 03:41:19,690 The simplicity of it is to have an hourly rate where the complication comes in 2874 03:41:19,690 --> 03:41:27,010 because of the way that the overtime is calculated, if you were to take an 80-hour or a 40-hour 2875 03:41:27,010 --> 03:41:34,590 week employee and calculate that out and literally pay the extra hours, I mean the salary 2876 03:41:34,590 --> 03:41:40,450 of the salary of the year and annual amount that person makes is far greater than the way 2877 03:41:40,450 --> 03:41:45,870 it's calculated here. And I know all that but I don't have something in writing to sit here 2878 03:41:45,870 --> 03:41:52,810 here's how this all works. So I think there's some reason that over the years they went to 2879 03:41:52,810 --> 03:41:58,970 this dollar amount in the contract because of the way that over time is paid and they 2880 03:41:58,970 --> 03:42:04,650 worked so many hours at 29. I don't know what it is. There's a point which you get paid over time at 2881 03:42:04,650 --> 03:42:11,150 the end of 28 days cycle, not only 40 days cycle, 40 days cycle, 28 days cycle, anything over 200 2882 03:42:11,150 --> 03:42:16,050 12 hours. So it's not on every. 2883 03:42:16,170 --> 03:42:17,630 Oh, I want to do to our work. 2884 03:42:18,450 --> 03:42:20,190 It's actually, oh, 56 hours. 2885 03:42:20,610 --> 03:42:20,970 56 hours. 2886 03:42:21,890 --> 03:42:24,550 It's based on the FLS and FLS, 2887 03:42:24,670 --> 03:42:28,850 and standards and a federal ruling from the Garcia ruling years ago. 2888 03:42:29,410 --> 03:42:33,170 You're what you're seeing here with the salary, the pay ranges, 2889 03:42:33,310 --> 03:42:34,550 and all that kind of stuff. 2890 03:42:34,830 --> 03:42:37,930 That is fairly consistent with fire services nationwide. 2891 03:42:37,930 --> 03:42:46,690 It pretty much tells you, yes, in early conversations, you know, you all all got copies of other departments 2892 03:42:46,690 --> 03:42:53,430 that do some of those short-staffings, during peak hours, those are very much larger departments, 2893 03:42:53,610 --> 03:43:00,310 very much larger populations, the predominance of those peak units assist because of the number 2894 03:43:00,310 --> 03:43:07,550 of hospitals and medical facilities in the area, but like I'm saying, the total provisions 2895 03:43:07,550 --> 03:43:15,910 in this contract are hurting normal contract related stuff, and I can say the salary thing 2896 03:43:15,910 --> 03:43:19,690 can go on for days. This depends on how you look at 2897 03:43:21,930 --> 03:43:21,990 it. 2898 03:43:22,130 --> 03:43:24,170 Hey Chief, listen in a bit more now. 2899 03:43:24,450 --> 03:43:28,930 Let's change gears for a second so we can get off the numbers. Really, I'm going to wrap back 2900 03:43:28,930 --> 03:43:36,790 the numbers again. But on the evaluation process here, how do they know what not meeting 2901 03:43:37,830 --> 03:43:41,550 And this contract to be clear, be clear for them to know what it is. 2902 03:43:41,910 --> 03:43:42,730 Yes, they know already. 2903 03:43:42,850 --> 03:43:49,130 Based on the evaluation form itself, each category of the evaluation has benchmarks. 2904 03:43:50,090 --> 03:43:54,390 That tells them on substandard what's standards and what's above standards. 2905 03:43:55,850 --> 03:43:58,450 And when they go through the evaluation, you don't know. 2906 03:43:59,490 --> 03:44:03,990 When you talk about here, this provision of what's not meeting standards, 2907 03:44:03,990 --> 03:44:10,410 I would submit to you that with our focus on the evaluations, the fact that employee is not 2908 03:44:10,410 --> 03:44:16,370 meeting standards is not going to be a surprise to them at evaluation time. 2909 03:44:16,730 --> 03:44:23,550 In clearly states here that they'll go into the 60-day remedial, which would be identified 2910 03:44:23,550 --> 03:44:27,770 by much staff as to what their issues are that need be corrected. 2911 03:44:28,530 --> 03:44:33,970 If they haven't met the standard in that 60 days, then they forego the merit, because remember 2912 03:44:33,970 --> 03:44:40,450 to the merit is the merit increases tied to their evaluation. 2913 03:44:41,050 --> 03:44:45,850 They don't need standards, they do not automatically get the merit. 2914 03:44:46,790 --> 03:44:52,790 And then, of course, once it goes past that 60 or 90 days of remedial, 2915 03:44:53,470 --> 03:44:59,330 then there's going to be other issues that play in and they are overall in the concerns of employability in the long run. 2916 03:45:00,050 --> 03:45:10,190 If those problems are significant enough to affect the merit for that year, then there would be significant enough that we have to address it to ensure that they are a good employee. 2917 03:45:11,630 --> 03:45:18,870 Okay, because I just see there, that was, I was looking for the note, and I got sidetracked with numbers. 2918 03:45:18,870 --> 03:45:25,030 Um, I just was sitting here looking at a sort of last night not meeting standards and it just 2919 03:45:25,030 --> 03:45:29,350 occurred to me is that there's no way that was the first time that I saw it in here. 2920 03:45:29,690 --> 03:45:32,550 And I was just wondering if they, if they understood that. 2921 03:45:32,750 --> 03:45:32,970 Yes, I do. 2922 03:45:33,330 --> 03:45:36,270 The, if the virus was very clear, what the level of the standard. 2923 03:45:36,950 --> 03:45:37,350 Okay. 2924 03:45:39,710 --> 03:45:41,630 Such a, it's said in a pay period, 2925 03:45:41,630 --> 03:45:45,890 How many hours did they work before they drove out of the time? 2926 03:45:46,530 --> 03:45:48,750 They're paid period during 28 days cycle. 2927 03:45:49,750 --> 03:45:52,410 So they work in average of 56 hours a week. 2928 03:45:53,150 --> 03:45:56,490 So at the end of the 28 days, they work 200-12 hours. 2929 03:45:57,030 --> 03:46:00,310 Anything over 2-12 is paid in the company at the overtime. 2930 03:46:01,690 --> 03:46:02,910 But should be okay. 2931 03:46:10,800 --> 03:46:14,920 I can tell you that by coming to work on the regular 24-hour schedule, 2932 03:46:15,580 --> 03:46:17,160 without working any extra overtime, 2933 03:46:17,160 --> 03:46:22,100 with how that calculates out.

So if we don't want to pay eight, then don't transfer these thousand dollars 2977 03:49:18,920 --> 03:49:23,880 and if you're willing to go ahead to eight thousand dollars and we'll transfer the thousand dollars from 2978 03:49:23,880 --> 03:49:26,140 or something, give that bill paid. 2979 03:49:26,860 --> 03:49:28,040 Something like, let's make it the ill. 2980 03:49:29,180 --> 03:49:31,000 I want you to make it the ill for me. 2981 03:49:31,600 --> 03:49:32,320 And we go 75. 2982 03:49:33,740 --> 03:49:35,280 So what do we have eight thousand right now? 2983 03:49:35,280 --> 03:49:35,500 Yes. 2984 03:49:35,980 --> 03:49:37,260 What's that in there today? 2985 03:49:38,220 --> 03:49:38,760 That's my understanding. 2986 03:49:38,860 --> 03:49:39,420 So what you said, Robbie? 2987 03:49:40,300 --> 03:49:41,120 They were at nine. 2988 03:49:41,320 --> 03:49:41,880 We were at seven. 2989 03:49:42,740 --> 03:49:44,140 The compromise is eight. 2990 03:49:45,820 --> 03:49:46,780 And Bill was 35? 2991 03:49:52,660 --> 03:49:53,940 It's probably good compromise. 2992 03:49:54,640 --> 03:49:55,340 That's probably good. 2993 03:49:55,700 --> 03:49:56,640 Almost 36. 2994 03:49:57,900 --> 03:50:03,400 So make a reason not to transfer more than you really wanted to, because then it comes back to you. 2995 03:50:03,840 --> 03:50:05,020 You gave for more leverage. 2996 03:50:06,160 --> 03:50:10,620 I'm legal with motion of the Board of County Commission's approved budget transfer of 15-147, 2997 03:50:10,680 --> 03:50:15,040 and not a thousand dollars from General Fund Reserves for contingencies to in-mate medical expenses, 2998 03:50:15,100 --> 03:50:19,800 greater than anticipated expenditure is within the County Administrators' authorized spending authority. 2999 03:50:19,800 --> 03:50:20,560 Thank you. 3000 03:50:21,420 --> 03:50:21,780 Second. 3001 03:50:26,350 --> 03:50:31,070 If motion seconds to be transferred additional $1,000 from deserves, and to settle it, 3002 03:50:31,090 --> 03:50:32,530 and it may be all those in favor say aye. 3003 03:50:32,730 --> 03:50:33,110 Aye. 3004 03:50:33,250 --> 03:50:34,830 I have a Black Sound motion period. 3005 03:50:36,330 --> 03:50:37,210 Policy discussion. 3006 03:50:38,250 --> 03:50:39,010 We're friendly. 3007 03:50:40,870 --> 03:50:43,210 But the preparation from deserves was contingent. 3008 03:50:45,550 --> 03:50:46,670 Have we read one of those mind? 3009 03:50:46,790 --> 03:50:47,410 Was it? 3010 03:50:47,410 --> 03:50:47,590 Was it? 3011 03:50:48,110 --> 03:50:48,510 Yes. 3012 03:50:48,810 --> 03:50:49,390 Is it you? 3013 03:50:50,690 --> 03:50:58,590 During the last budget meeting, what we've done is that we've really removed a lot of the 3014 03:50:58,590 --> 03:51:03,930 excess dollars out, I used to call it the Easter egg hunt, but it was really dollars 3015 03:51:03,930 --> 03:51:11,170 that's allocated in various locations on the line items that the staff had not used over 3016 03:51:11,170 --> 03:51:17,030 a number of years. So rather than just take all that money away and put it back, and then 3017 03:51:17,030 --> 03:51:23,210 have to come back to us if they had an emergency within a two-week period of time, I suggested 3018 03:51:23,210 --> 03:51:28,150 that maybe we could consider putting a contingency line that the county administrator would 3019 03:51:28,150 --> 03:51:32,510 have the authority to utilize based on the fact of whatever she said. 3020 03:51:32,790 --> 03:51:38,350 She saw a fit that the department had brought in a business plan or whatever it may be that 3021 03:51:38,350 --> 03:51:40,010 had a problem. 3022 03:51:42,170 --> 03:51:45,850 And I had not put a dollar amount on it, but I had thought about it 3023 03:51:45,850 --> 03:51:49,750 afterwards and I said, if there's 25,000, we put in that contingency fund, 3024 03:51:50,110 --> 03:51:54,390 that she had the responsibility to manage at the end of every two weeks, and 3025 03:51:54,390 --> 03:52:00,350 in her comments at the end of the meeting, she would bring back and say whatever 3026 03:52:00,350 --> 03:52:05,030 she utilized out of that fund. Just to prevent somebody having to come back 3027 03:52:05,030 --> 03:52:09,550 Wait two weeks for emergency expenditure that they didn't have money in their budget. 3028 03:52:12,170 --> 03:52:15,730 So this would be different than what we already did, as they already did. 3029 03:52:15,770 --> 03:52:15,910 Right. 3030 03:52:17,510 --> 03:52:20,590 Authority with reserves lies 100% with the board. 3031 03:52:25,400 --> 03:52:29,980 And based on the fact that what we have done is that we've taken a lot of this money out of each individual department. 3032 03:52:30,000 --> 03:52:43,120 We had our each individual department budget. As you well, whereas we pretty much looked at each one of them, we asked them why I hadn't used their money if they didn't use their money, we took away. 3033 03:52:44,060 --> 03:52:53,980 So rather than having them to wait two weeks for something to get an approval to buy something or to get something done, I felt it. 3034 03:52:53,980 --> 03:52:59,720 appropriate to put a contingency line in her budget and have a hold her responsible. 3035 03:52:59,920 --> 03:53:05,420 She's a county administrator. We pay her extra $100 to manage this county. I think it's 3036 03:53:05,420 --> 03:53:11,340 a time that we should have paid and have let her administrator ability to manage that from that 3037 03:53:11,340 --> 03:53:16,900 lower level standpoint. We give her $25,000 on procurement policy as better already. So I don't 3038 03:53:16,900 --> 03:53:21,480 see, I don't see a problem that we don't do this. Well, I just, and I don't have a problem with it. 3039 03:53:21,480 --> 03:53:26,780 And just what basically is the difference of what we've already, the $25,000 you already have 3040 03:53:26,780 --> 03:53:27,120 robbing? 3041 03:53:27,460 --> 03:53:29,620 Yes, but it's only for those budgeted items. 3042 03:53:31,300 --> 03:53:36,000 So this would be, and what I was explaining to Mr. Bros. is this would be those situations 3043 03:53:36,000 --> 03:53:42,980 when the AC goes down, and they didn't plan for a replacement, and now they would have to 3044 03:53:42,980 --> 03:53:47,020 wait until they had sufficient dollars in their budget to take care of those replacement. 3045 03:53:47,020 --> 03:53:51,580 And as of right now, you can't do that with what we're attracted, that's what I just want to correct. 3046 03:53:51,680 --> 03:53:54,760 For instance, from Reserves, lie 100% with the board. 3047 03:53:55,380 --> 03:53:58,700 But if it's a emergency, you can do that. 3048 03:53:59,220 --> 03:54:02,640 The purchase can be done, but it can't transfer the dollars to make payment. 3049 03:54:02,820 --> 03:54:04,140 But the purchase can be done. 3050 03:54:04,840 --> 03:54:07,960 Yes, but you can't purchase something when you don't have the dollars. 3051 03:54:08,520 --> 03:54:13,020 And usually what ends up happening with finance is we don't have the line item budgeted. 3052 03:54:13,580 --> 03:54:18,960 we've been able to move money and so the purchase for an emergency is one thing if it's 3053 03:54:18,960 --> 03:54:23,180 appropriate when it's not appropriate is the problem. Would this then become an additional 3054 03:54:23,180 --> 03:54:30,800 line item and a budget as it continues to item? No I would leave it in contingencies I wouldn't 3055 03:54:30,800 --> 03:54:35,680 have a separate item but actually when I was going to add to all of this is that those items 3056 03:54:35,680 --> 03:54:40,460 would be ratified by the board but they would be along the same lines as those emergency 3057 03:54:40,460 --> 03:54:45,600 purchases but any the ability to transfer them come back and ratify the board ratify the 3058 03:54:46,320 --> 03:54:46,760 transfers. 3059 03:54:47,220 --> 03:54:50,620 The only reason I'm asking this I'm not questioning your integrity just to make sure 3060 03:54:50,620 --> 03:54:55,220 we have a system of checks and balances that we know exactly where the money is going 3061 03:54:55,220 --> 03:54:56,620 and which fund is coming out of the board. 3062 03:54:56,640 --> 03:55:00,700 Yeah that's why it has to be reported I would never want to do this without you having 3063 03:55:00,700 --> 03:55:01,440 full awareness. 3064 03:55:01,980 --> 03:55:03,320 I just want to explain it to me. 3065 03:55:03,320 --> 03:55:06,520 The difference in the two funds and how they worked and what you could purchase one of 3066 03:55:06,520 --> 03:55:10,280 I still think you would have to ratify the decision, I don't think I can just, you know, 3067 03:55:10,340 --> 03:55:10,880 I don't really do it. 3068 03:55:10,980 --> 03:55:15,040 The statute says that funds from contingencies have to be approved by the board. 3069 03:55:16,220 --> 03:55:18,260 So I did look up that. 3070 03:55:18,820 --> 03:55:22,860 I think it's $1.29, but under county budget. 3071 03:55:22,860 --> 03:55:27,380 Well, wouldn't that make a difference on how you actually, whether you put it as a line item, 3072 03:55:27,940 --> 03:55:31,960 if you put it as a line item in your administration budget, you would then have the authority 3073 03:55:31,960 --> 03:55:36,920 to do it, but good management would be you would still run it by the board. 3074 03:55:37,740 --> 03:55:38,040 Still? 3075 03:55:38,600 --> 03:55:42,780 Well, I can't even have to be a line on it. 3076 03:55:43,180 --> 03:55:43,720 It would. 3077 03:55:44,940 --> 03:55:45,420 Here's. 3078 03:55:45,420 --> 03:55:50,860 Help me with this, because my thought is this, literally we do not transfer between departments 3079 03:55:50,860 --> 03:55:52,520 and less it's from reserves. 3080 03:55:53,720 --> 03:55:58,860 So if you put it in my budget and say it's just the general operating line, and I can move those 3081 03:55:58,860 --> 03:56:02,820 dollars to another department. We typically don't move money between departments. 3082 03:56:04,900 --> 03:56:08,000 So that's a problem 3083 03:56:08,000 --> 03:56:16,220 because in the fund as a whole is whether the fund level is the control, not the department or, 3084 03:56:16,660 --> 03:56:22,080 so it probably would be okay to do it from our budget into someone else's. 3085 03:56:22,080 --> 03:56:24,520 It's not like moving it to the sheriff's department. 3086 03:56:25,260 --> 03:56:28,980 Correct. I would not say a little bit of constitutional. 3087 03:56:29,900 --> 03:56:36,600 If you had a line out on your budget and road, road maintenance needs something, 3088 03:56:37,780 --> 03:56:39,060 as it works in such a different tone. 3089 03:56:39,320 --> 03:56:42,780 So each fund would have to have one, which is what I was explaining to the prisoner. 3090 03:56:43,020 --> 03:56:47,020 You couldn't just do it general fund. Each one would have to have that in order for that to work. 3091 03:56:47,880 --> 03:56:50,520 I think that complicates a whole bunch of stuff. 3092 03:56:51,160 --> 03:56:55,360 That was a true emergency so you can buy a name with money. 3093 03:56:55,820 --> 03:56:57,000 Not so you've moved it. 3094 03:56:57,180 --> 03:56:58,560 And so the purchase doesn't really happen. 3095 03:56:59,040 --> 03:57:03,240 And finance will usually tell us if there's not funding in the account to do the budget transfer. 3096 03:57:03,580 --> 03:57:05,800 I can't if I don't have it anywhere else. 3097 03:57:06,080 --> 03:57:06,580 So it has to wait. 3098 03:57:06,580 --> 03:57:15,320 But we're saying that every note all the budgets have no capital dollars in them that they couldn't use money to buy something. 3099 03:57:15,820 --> 03:57:17,000 Or do they all have to happen? 3100 03:57:17,000 --> 03:57:23,180 To tens on the timing in the year, you know, because of the thoughts about the four-year 3101 03:57:23,180 --> 03:57:28,120 averages and the reasons we'd work spending money in the past will change, they will 3102 03:57:28,120 --> 03:57:32,280 all spend money in the only way, because they'll make sure that all the projects happen 3103 03:57:32,280 --> 03:57:33,740 up front and not at the end of the year. 3104 03:57:34,460 --> 03:57:37,400 So there's going to be a change in the spending pattern for sure. 3105 03:57:41,850 --> 03:57:45,410 I would suggest that that's going backwards if you put a contingent on your advice, 3106 03:57:48,490 --> 03:57:48,950 but in 3107 03:57:48,950 --> 03:57:54,620 It sounds like that's not what you can do it, and that wasn't what I wanted to do. 3108 03:57:55,360 --> 03:57:55,740 No. 3109 03:57:56,040 --> 03:57:56,300 No. 3110 03:57:56,460 --> 03:57:56,800 It's not. 3111 03:57:56,900 --> 03:57:58,340 You can understand it. 3112 03:57:58,340 --> 03:58:01,760 I understood his thoughts about that, but he run into that problem. 3113 03:58:02,340 --> 03:58:04,200 That's why I would leave it in a reserve line. 3114 03:58:04,460 --> 03:58:07,520 I wouldn't take it, and that's why I would tell the board, you know, when it happens 3115 03:58:07,520 --> 03:58:10,240 and to ratify those decisions that were already made. 3116 03:58:11,220 --> 03:58:12,180 And that's what we did now. 3117 03:58:12,440 --> 03:58:13,300 We've done it in the past. 3118 03:58:14,120 --> 03:58:14,740 That one. 3119 03:58:15,480 --> 03:58:16,680 Ratify things after the fact. 3120 03:58:16,680 --> 03:58:20,540 No, I haven't ratified my expenditure yet, no. 3121 03:58:20,660 --> 03:58:25,940 I really try not to, I mean, I really would rather you're approval to do something before I did it. 3122 03:58:26,680 --> 03:58:36,400 But, you know, I'm willing to at least get have some, put some risk out there that, you know, I'm going to make the right decision when it's in a true emergency, and they can't find it in their budget. 3123 03:58:36,520 --> 03:58:45,420 And your point is well taken, I suppose, depending upon the point in the year, there are a line lines they could take it from in their budget, but it's still after you restored. 3124 03:58:45,920 --> 03:58:55,100 For instance, we obviously don't spend salaries all 100% one time, so if they have a room and their salary line, then we came back from board and said, hey, they have its emergency and so they took it from here. 3125 03:58:55,640 --> 03:59:02,100 But we need to restore it to there. You have some flexibility because of the timing of what you spend money in a year. 3126 03:59:02,940 --> 03:59:04,600 But those are the kinds of things that could happen. 3127 03:59:07,160 --> 03:59:12,540 So the only concern I have and it's been brought to me and that's because I didn't even think about it. 3128 03:59:12,700 --> 03:59:18,660 It was when you increased the amount of money that you have in a contingency fund or in a fund where you have it. 3129 03:59:18,720 --> 03:59:21,640 We went from 10,000 to 25,000 only away. 3130 03:59:22,140 --> 03:59:28,480 People started to ask, well, now we're getting up to the point where there may be items that should go out for bid and are they? 3131 03:59:28,720 --> 03:59:30,860 No, the camera policy follows all that. 3132 03:59:30,920 --> 03:59:32,580 Yeah, so that's actually that's not. 3133 03:59:32,660 --> 03:59:33,640 That's all I'm gonna have. 3134 03:59:33,980 --> 03:59:36,620 Give me an answer so I can tell the people will know the difference. 3135 03:59:36,620 --> 03:59:40,600 that's different than what we're talking about with a repair policy as very specific ranges 3136 03:59:40,600 --> 03:59:47,100 of when they have to go out to bed in terms of whether it's getting verbal quotes, written 3137 03:59:47,100 --> 03:59:51,600 quotes, or actually feel bizzare advertised. There's three different levels of one 3138 03:59:51,600 --> 03:59:55,800 of those things. And that's all being followed. There's a form that everybody does. 3139 03:59:55,920 --> 03:59:59,340 People are funny. They always want to think the bad things. 3140 04:00:00,000 --> 04:00:04,540 And I want to make sure that if a question comes like that, I know how to answer that part. 3141 04:00:04,600 --> 04:00:12,780 And you can always go look at the back up to the purchase and say, you heard about it at the back up for the verbal written and our teams, obviously, done that way. 3142 04:00:13,600 --> 04:00:14,980 Yeah, who's there? 3143 04:00:18,170 --> 04:00:20,110 We're on the list. 3144 04:00:20,390 --> 04:00:21,630 There was a lot of what you were saying. 3145 04:00:22,490 --> 04:00:30,590 Well, what I was thinking is to provide the contingency fund for her, and she would be able to do exactly what she said, and then come back and ratify later on, 3146 04:00:30,590 --> 04:00:35,670 to expedite some of these things to keep somebody having to wait two weeks in order to get 3147 04:00:35,670 --> 04:00:39,530 something because I understood finance wouldn't allow them to buy whatever they wanted to until 3148 04:00:39,530 --> 04:00:46,290 it was approved. So in order to expedite some of these issues that may come about, that was the reason 3149 04:00:46,290 --> 04:00:52,050 for making that suggestion. But I didn't have any indication. I wanted to put a contingency 3150 04:00:52,050 --> 04:00:56,290 contingency funding each department head. Well, I don't think that's what I'm saying either. 3151 04:00:56,290 --> 04:00:56,890 Okay. 3152 04:00:56,950 --> 04:00:58,570 What if your fund is more? 3153 04:00:58,890 --> 04:01:00,750 In transportation is one. 3154 04:01:01,510 --> 04:01:02,030 Fire is one. 3155 04:01:02,830 --> 04:01:04,290 No, I'm saying for you. 3156 04:01:05,450 --> 04:01:06,190 General funds. 3157 04:01:07,870 --> 04:01:11,510 I would just do the four main operations. 3158 04:01:13,070 --> 04:01:16,230 If we're going to do it at all, I'd just do general fund, I'd do transportation. 3159 04:01:17,330 --> 04:01:17,590 Fire. 3160 04:01:18,770 --> 04:01:20,890 And uncorporate service area. 3161 04:01:20,990 --> 04:01:22,310 Those are the main operating areas. 3162 04:01:22,410 --> 04:01:26,110 I wouldn't do tourism because there's usually sufficient dollars in there on. 3163 04:01:26,110 --> 04:01:37,460 And it's not going to work and now it's going to line up and make sure everything is done. 3164 04:01:39,000 --> 04:01:43,200 Well, I can, in this discussion, this is not the end of it. 3165 04:01:43,340 --> 04:01:46,280 I mean, to me, I would bring back a policy and we would go through the policy. 3166 04:01:46,820 --> 04:01:49,000 So you need to have the absolute assurances of what you're having to do. 3167 04:01:49,940 --> 04:01:51,700 This was just the discussion. 3168 04:01:51,700 --> 04:02:00,320 To provide staff direction and then we'll go from there. I prefer to have administrative regulations that a policies that are in writing and protects a different one than 3169 04:02:01,480 --> 04:02:09,180 But I would suggest you sit and you bring back a policy to see it if we don't get in that that's fine. Oh, we can tweak it. Right. 3170 04:02:12,180 --> 04:02:22,200 Up until this budget process is not going to problem, but when you go to four year averages and there have not been situations that could occur that have occurred recently. 3171 04:02:23,740 --> 04:02:29,700 It can be. And if you want to wait till it is a problem, we can do it that way too. 3172 04:02:29,880 --> 04:02:34,660 I'm going to record and I'll say I'll be shocked if we do all the capital projects. 3173 04:02:35,820 --> 04:02:41,400 Well capital projects fund is completely different than these capital purchases that are in these individual budgets. 3174 04:02:42,380 --> 04:02:43,400 They're completely different. 3175 04:02:45,040 --> 04:02:45,800 But lots of money. 3176 04:02:46,120 --> 04:02:51,740 Fun 303, right? Fun 303 is simply separate from all this discussion I'm having with you. 3177 04:02:51,740 --> 04:02:56,620 Now that's a capital fund. It's not operating. I'm strictly talking about operating issues. 3178 04:02:57,640 --> 04:03:01,100 That's where this is where this comment started from. 3179 04:03:01,480 --> 04:03:05,300 So I would suggest it to just bring back the policy if we like it. 3180 04:03:05,900 --> 04:03:08,980 Then we adopt it. We don't. We put it away. 3181 04:03:09,420 --> 04:03:10,220 Good to me. 3182 04:03:20,320 --> 04:03:21,840 You're just thinking about it. 3183 04:03:21,880 --> 04:03:22,760 You're just thinking about it. 3184 04:03:23,660 --> 04:03:25,120 You'll talk in a second. 3185 04:03:26,320 --> 04:03:26,580 What's that? 3186 04:03:26,580 --> 04:03:28,400 solution looking for a problem? 3187 04:03:28,860 --> 04:03:32,020 Oh, I have, I have, I think we have a problem, but we'll feel. 3188 04:03:32,620 --> 04:03:34,360 Okay, last, last time? 3189 04:03:34,520 --> 04:03:35,300 No, couple more. 3190 04:03:35,540 --> 04:03:36,860 Discussion of shipping contained. 3191 04:03:37,480 --> 04:03:39,340 Mr. Roy, as I told you, be out to lunch. 3192 04:03:40,060 --> 04:03:40,540 You go to lunch. 3193 04:03:42,640 --> 04:03:43,640 But you didn't believe me. 3194 04:03:54,520 --> 04:03:56,880 So, I already want to do that shipping contained. 3195 04:03:57,920 --> 04:04:01,240 Well, we're going to enforce the code that we're going to... 3196 04:04:01,240 --> 04:04:02,780 I want to leave the code home. 3197 04:04:02,780 --> 04:04:10,840 And the last commission meeting of resident came to the public conversation and inquired 3198 04:04:10,840 --> 04:04:16,160 about how the regulation done shipping containers that has probably gotten the violation 3199 04:04:16,160 --> 04:04:17,720 for several things. 3200 04:04:17,880 --> 04:04:21,900 One of the things mentioned was that we used to containers on the problem. 3201 04:04:22,780 --> 04:04:24,280 We found the regulations, 3202 04:04:26,740 --> 04:04:29,160 for example, for all of this, of course, were eventually 3203 04:04:29,160 --> 04:04:32,880 building else. They're not going to allow us for the more things that the sugar container is 3204 04:04:32,880 --> 04:04:40,520 to be used for storage.

So do you want to discuss it? Do you want to talk about an award? Do you want to 3256 04:07:24,180 --> 04:07:26,340 do you want to change it to policy instead of that to you? 3257 04:07:27,100 --> 04:07:28,960 Okay, to focus on the derives? Discussion? 3258 04:07:29,100 --> 04:07:29,560 Yeah, this. 3259 04:07:30,000 --> 04:07:36,620 Ironically, I was that planning and zoning, I want to gentleman came in and had a shipping container brought 3260 04:07:36,620 --> 04:07:42,460 into his property out in Kokino. And we were sitting there, Brad and now we're having a discussion, 3261 04:07:42,740 --> 04:07:48,340 and when he stopped and talked to us, and I said, here's the issue that we have. These containers 3262 04:07:48,340 --> 04:07:53,040 weren't meant to be temporary homes for the weekend where people are coming out in the Vikings 3263 04:07:53,040 --> 04:07:59,420 and doing just that. He wanted to actually mount a water pump inside of it, you know, to facilitate 3264 04:07:59,420 --> 04:08:08,420 I should say not a lot of people steal it because at my time that that does happen and what I told him was as I said if you 3265 04:08:08,420 --> 04:08:11,000 He lives in Fort Loderdale and I'm gonna say in a nice area 3266 04:08:11,000 --> 04:08:16,260 I say what would happen is if someone came in and moved the shipping container in next door to you 3267 04:08:16,260 --> 04:08:22,320 So that's that's an issue on a acre and a quarter or smaller a lot and that was the issue that I had concerned with 3268 04:08:23,460 --> 04:08:28,620 The one thing about shipping containers is the unlike sheds, you know like aluminum sheds 3269 04:08:28,620 --> 04:08:33,440 You don't usually blow away hurricanes, so it's not, you know, a danger to other people if they're 3270 04:08:33,440 --> 04:08:38,000 improperly secured and many of the older ones, the bases have rotted out, the straps have 3271 04:08:38,000 --> 04:08:40,120 rotted out and can't check all of them. 3272 04:08:40,280 --> 04:08:46,420 But I do think, and what I asked Board to do and to direct stats to do, was look at situations 3273 04:08:46,420 --> 04:08:51,820 where there are five acres or more or pick a number, because at that point, if they've put 3274 04:08:51,820 --> 04:08:56,280 in the middle of their end they're used for storage, they're properly strapped down. 3275 04:08:56,280 --> 04:09:03,680 I would rather see one of those because clearly because of its strength, it's structural strength. 3276 04:09:03,800 --> 04:09:06,040 Is this not going to become a missile flying through the air? 3277 04:09:06,220 --> 04:09:07,940 As I had my backyard after Francis. 3278 04:09:09,100 --> 04:09:11,160 So that's why I asked the board to look at this policy. 3279 04:09:11,820 --> 04:09:16,620 And obviously we don't want to see, you know, lazy seven or, you know, we don't want to see an area 3280 04:09:16,620 --> 04:09:23,260 where the houses are in a PUD where they're in a quarter or smaller lots, it would take over. 3281 04:09:23,260 --> 04:09:29,140 And that's what I was concerned about, but I would like the board to, as myself, consider 3282 04:09:29,140 --> 04:09:35,540 looking at it, looking at this, and delineating a certain size of a piece of property that 3283 04:09:35,540 --> 04:09:41,100 you could use these storage cabinets for storage, not a house, not a temporary living facility, 3284 04:09:41,760 --> 04:09:44,900 you know, not a shop, but a storage area. 3285 04:09:45,460 --> 04:09:49,180 And that's what I was kind of why I asked, you know, staff to come back and take a look 3286 04:09:49,180 --> 04:09:53,760 doesn't see, you know, if we could work something out, you know, that this could be an acceptable 3287 04:09:54,680 --> 04:09:58,460 piece on a larger piece of property where you could put it in the middle of the property 3288 04:09:58,460 --> 04:10:02,400 or somewhere, but some shit, you know, shrubber you around it and I don't think you would 3289 04:10:02,400 --> 04:10:07,640 be a trusive, but they do serve a good purpose and, you know, if I had a large piece of property 3290 04:10:07,640 --> 04:10:09,340 I would consider using it. 3291 04:10:09,340 --> 04:10:19,160 But how do you tell, okay, how do you cocaine it, how do you fray, how do you have the 3292 04:10:20,060 --> 04:10:25,400 Okay, they're out in the middle of nowhere, you're right, so they could have one of these on 3293 04:10:25,400 --> 04:10:31,400 five acres, but yet our five acres, if I meant an our bar sure wouldn't want my 3294 04:10:31,400 --> 04:10:35,960 neighborhood to have one, but if you give them a case for five acre in and for 3295 04:10:35,960 --> 04:10:40,360 you, then everybody should be entitled to it, so it's hard to tell somebody with 3296 04:10:40,360 --> 04:10:47,420 five acres, and one area you can have it and not in another, yeah, to me, it would be. 3297 04:10:53,050 --> 04:11:00,870 Do we have limitations on buying one from Home Depot or call her to put in my yard? 3298 04:11:01,090 --> 04:11:03,620 I know money, but I don't know because I have a company that I can't do it. 3299 04:11:04,230 --> 04:11:07,850 But at our bottom, is there a limitation on what I can put in my yard? 3300 04:11:09,130 --> 04:11:15,050 And all our residents alone, just for it's there is a limit on, until a number and size and accessory structures. 3301 04:11:15,370 --> 04:11:16,470 And what's the limit on size? 3302 04:11:16,770 --> 04:11:17,030 I'm sorry. 3303 04:11:17,330 --> 04:11:18,450 What's the size of square footage? 3304 04:11:18,450 --> 04:11:24,410 the generally in most other districts, you'll own the two accessories structures that combine 3305 04:11:24,410 --> 04:11:28,750 area of the two accessories structures, kinetic seed, and somewhere as you mentioned, 3306 04:11:28,970 --> 04:11:32,270 building districts, 100 percent of the size of the house, so if there are 2,000 square 3307 04:11:32,270 --> 04:11:37,650 of the house, you're two accessories structures together, can't be larger than 2,000 square feet. 3308 04:11:38,230 --> 04:11:41,910 And I think our role was, eventually, what's using larger lots, quite often, 3309 04:11:41,910 --> 04:11:47,370 of animals, you can have a commodity area in your accessor structures, can we see the 3310 04:11:47,370 --> 04:11:51,150 150% or 200% of the size in the house, but there are still our limits. 3311 04:11:51,810 --> 04:12:00,430 So the issue with the containers isn't the size, it could be the number of, I mean, how many 3312 04:12:00,430 --> 04:12:02,850 do they come to the accessor structural zone they would visit? 3313 04:12:04,070 --> 04:12:05,870 I mean, that's just not what they're there for. 3314 04:12:06,250 --> 04:12:09,550 We really want, I really want them to lay their hoods, I don't care whether they're too 3315 04:12:09,550 --> 04:12:14,230 They're defiving, they're aiming, they're something that they don't belong in. 3316 04:12:14,630 --> 04:12:15,670 That's not what they're built for. 3317 04:12:15,670 --> 04:12:18,630 They're built for shipping containers or track trailers. 3318 04:12:19,310 --> 04:12:22,610 They're not built to be a storage facility in the back yard. 3319 04:12:22,830 --> 04:12:23,950 They're the doors that are set up for that. 3320 04:12:24,170 --> 04:12:26,250 You can get a lot inside of them. 3321 04:12:26,490 --> 04:12:27,690 There it is. 3322 04:12:27,810 --> 04:12:28,950 That's not what they're there for. 3323 04:12:29,750 --> 04:12:31,710 In commercial, we'll give it a bona fide. 3324 04:12:33,050 --> 04:12:33,850 Commercial agriculture. 3325 04:12:34,890 --> 04:12:36,310 There's very, very step story exemptions. 3326 04:12:36,350 --> 04:12:38,790 It's not much we can be there but other than that. 3327 04:12:38,790 --> 04:12:41,870 I don't see that they belong any close. 3328 04:12:42,430 --> 04:12:48,870 Well, chair just part of a good point, you said you have limits within your 3329 04:12:48,870 --> 04:12:48,990 home. 3330 04:12:49,490 --> 04:12:50,770 We have covenants. 3331 04:12:51,050 --> 04:12:51,930 You have covenants. 3332 04:12:52,370 --> 04:12:55,250 And that would work the same way with Aubrey, you know, they can, they're home 3333 04:12:55,250 --> 04:12:58,890 to associate, you could have a covenant to say that we don't want shipping containers. 3334 04:12:59,470 --> 04:13:03,850 But by an air barrier that you had five acres, it was one five acre parcel, like for 3335 04:13:03,850 --> 04:13:09,850 wrong. You can't even see past the fence inside there. And if you required a certain amount 3336 04:13:09,850 --> 04:13:14,650 of percent setbacks where it would have to be on the inner part of that parcel of land 3337 04:13:14,650 --> 04:13:18,710 or it would not sit in right next to somebody's fence, then I think that would be something 3338 04:13:18,710 --> 04:13:24,810 that could be worked with that. I think because of their, you know, they're useful. I send 3339 04:13:24,810 --> 04:13:29,330 a lot of people to do. You know, I think if it's something that you should allow people 3340 04:13:29,330 --> 04:13:35,350 If it's in an area where there's an agricultural type area, I don't think there's a problem. 3341 04:13:35,570 --> 04:13:39,050 And if there is, let the homeowner's association address it. 3342 04:13:39,490 --> 04:13:41,730 Well, there are actually very few of them on the association. 3343 04:13:42,050 --> 04:13:42,990 They know it's up to the top. 3344 04:13:43,770 --> 04:13:45,510 Most of them are on the neighborhood to this. 3345 04:13:45,890 --> 04:13:47,270 Either they never had this association. 3346 04:13:47,670 --> 04:13:51,210 And for the association, as well as in, you know, in active regard for it. 3347 04:13:51,730 --> 04:13:56,330 So even if there are all of these restrictions, they're probably not enforceable. 3348 04:13:56,330 --> 04:14:01,210 Well, my name would have to think about myself, how do we all maternity, see somebody else?

3361 04:14:26,710 --> 04:14:29,170 All right, should be containers taxed on the property 3362 04:14:29,170 --> 04:14:31,470 as part of it's not. 3363 04:14:31,870 --> 04:14:33,950 So when we pay you better off in our county 3364 04:14:33,950 --> 04:14:38,010 to have assets that are taxable for our tax base? 3365 04:14:38,450 --> 04:14:38,890 Well, absolutely. 3366 04:14:39,290 --> 04:14:40,770 I'm out of this, read with that. 3367 04:14:41,190 --> 04:14:44,750 But what my point was is that if you put up a looming 3368 04:14:44,750 --> 04:14:47,870 of utility shed, I've seen plastic polypopole, 3369 04:14:48,730 --> 04:14:51,170 the just the structural integrity of one of those, 3370 04:14:51,170 --> 04:14:55,530 you know, and we're talking about, you know, damage to other people's property or, you know, 3371 04:14:55,690 --> 04:14:56,610 flying through the air. 3372 04:14:56,830 --> 04:14:59,970 That was one of the reasons that I even looked at that was because of the fact. 3373 04:15:00,000 --> 04:15:08,120 Right from the safety standpoint, and the substantial construction of those, as you wouldn't have the same issue with flying debris, and as you would from a utility shed. 3374 04:15:08,680 --> 04:15:17,040 And that's kind of why I brought that, I had a roll of door online, it blew away, and you could pull it down and slide the lever and let somebody in it, you know, they couldn't get out. 3375 04:15:17,740 --> 04:15:23,020 So I don't know whether that would be as much concern as it would be from an aesthetic, if that's the problem. 3376 04:15:23,560 --> 04:15:28,640 But if you look at the shed, they're all over the place, and they're usually not maintained as well, 3377 04:15:28,640 --> 04:15:32,600 or anywhere close to is what is what the structure, the housing structure. 3378 04:15:32,700 --> 04:15:36,780 And if you can build a utility shed with a thousand square or two thousand square feet 3379 04:15:36,780 --> 04:15:39,700 or equal to your house, that's not in your hangar. 3380 04:15:40,880 --> 04:15:47,800 So these utilities, these boxes, they only come with eight foot wide and 20, 25, 30 feet long 3381 04:15:47,800 --> 04:15:50,240 at the biggest ones, whatever they can haul across the road. 3382 04:15:50,800 --> 04:15:57,100 So you'd be limited this what you could put on their size-wise versus a purchased, constructed, 3383 04:15:57,100 --> 04:15:59,060 pre-constructing jildy shit. 3384 04:15:59,660 --> 04:16:03,060 So, there's ways that you can look at for me the direction. 3385 04:16:03,700 --> 04:16:06,740 I'm looking at it because I guess the line of work I was in, 3386 04:16:07,060 --> 04:16:08,240 more of a safety issue. 3387 04:16:08,480 --> 04:16:10,620 You know, as a fact of the integrity, structural integrity. 3388 04:16:12,020 --> 04:16:13,980 And there are a lot of people that store stuff in these things, 3389 04:16:14,220 --> 04:16:17,880 you know, lawn mowers and anything else that you would store in jildy shit. 3390 04:16:18,220 --> 04:16:21,700 And the only thing I was looking at was the string, 3391 04:16:21,980 --> 04:16:24,460 basically, and that's kind of why I wanted to 3392 04:16:24,460 --> 04:16:28,900 want to limit somebody that has a, you know, and five acres, you could, you could, you could 3393 04:16:28,900 --> 04:16:33,520 get an exemption, an agricultural exemption on that according to what I, you know, when I 3394 04:16:33,520 --> 04:16:40,140 talk to the, you know, there's no limit, you check, I checked it out. You can, you can, 3395 04:16:40,140 --> 04:16:43,860 you can get an agricultural exemption, there is no limit to the size. And that was one of 3396 04:16:43,860 --> 04:16:49,980 the questions I specifically asked, Mickey Vandy. And unless I'm a student, there is not 3397 04:16:49,980 --> 04:16:54,800 requirement, I'm a minimum requirement to get an agricultural classification. 3398 04:16:55,200 --> 04:16:58,200 No, no, no, there's not as far as that, there's for a legitimate commercial, 3399 04:16:58,200 --> 04:17:04,120 a modified commercial, a government operation, which is, you can get on two 3400 04:17:04,120 --> 04:17:06,080 acres, but it's pretty unusual. 3401 04:17:06,880 --> 04:17:08,060 Yeah, but it can be done. 3402 04:17:08,320 --> 04:17:08,800 It's in the code. 3403 04:17:08,900 --> 04:17:09,640 It can be done. 3404 04:17:09,760 --> 04:17:10,440 You can go shickens. 3405 04:17:10,500 --> 04:17:12,060 You can go birds, rabbits. 3406 04:17:12,380 --> 04:17:13,220 You can have to make none. 3407 04:17:13,740 --> 04:17:13,920 Yeah. 3408 04:17:14,180 --> 04:17:14,860 No, you know. 3409 04:17:15,000 --> 04:17:15,720 And that's wrong, too. 3410 04:17:15,880 --> 04:17:18,180 You do not have to file up to 99%. 3411 04:17:21,160 --> 04:17:25,200 But you do not have to show that it's operated at a profit order. 3412 04:17:30,220 --> 04:17:37,240 But that side, those are, again, it's part of the, you know, part of the policy decision 3413 04:17:37,240 --> 04:17:40,520 of the board of the Commission, all of your land and government regulations are operating 3414 04:17:40,520 --> 04:17:45,000 before it's setting out the type of community you want, what types of other structures, 3415 04:17:45,140 --> 04:17:48,360 minimum size structures, location, and stuff, that type of things. 3416 04:17:48,360 --> 04:17:52,760 They have different domain districts that have different types of things that are allowed in different 3417 04:17:52,760 --> 04:17:56,020 setbacks, different various regulations. 3418 04:17:56,400 --> 04:17:57,320 This is all we have to do. 3419 04:17:57,320 --> 04:17:59,000 This is somebody in primary policy documents. 3420 04:17:59,340 --> 04:18:07,380 Do you want to try your trade with shipping containers or all the global classrooms, do you want 3421 04:18:07,380 --> 04:18:12,960 these to be able to be put anywhere anybody wants that consistent with the local law for 3422 04:18:12,960 --> 04:18:15,660 where they're mentioned, and the local law of the area of the town. 3423 04:18:17,060 --> 04:18:25,780 I understand the appeal to a point, but in the law I don't think it's good for the long-term 3424 04:18:26,360 --> 04:18:27,480 aesthetics of the power. 3425 04:18:28,320 --> 04:18:30,940 So Bill, how many of these do we have on county property? 3426 04:18:31,860 --> 04:18:34,300 I think the county needs to get one of the ones we have in the world. 3427 04:18:34,820 --> 04:18:34,900 So... 3428 04:18:34,900 --> 04:18:37,080 Yeah, I love those two of them that the county has. 3429 04:18:37,440 --> 04:18:39,840 So it didn't at the end of this particular issue. 3430 04:18:39,840 --> 04:18:47,000 if we denote that, we don't want them, and the county's got a problem, we'll get rid of them 3431 04:18:47,000 --> 04:18:48,840 just like everybody else, all right? 3432 04:18:50,400 --> 04:18:51,620 So you'll have to build storage. 3433 04:18:52,020 --> 04:18:56,480 Yeah, to build storage, you have to do something, but when the county still has them when 3434 04:18:56,480 --> 04:18:58,940 they're property, they need to get rid of them. 3435 04:18:58,960 --> 04:18:59,200 Correct. 3436 04:18:59,300 --> 04:19:02,350 That's a little bit of a challenge. 3437 04:19:02,710 --> 04:19:04,570 I'll always tell you the example that I have with me. 3438 04:19:04,710 --> 04:19:06,750 I don't know you have a comment, you're just, wait. 3439 04:19:06,750 --> 04:19:09,910 Oh, no, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. 3440 04:19:09,910 --> 04:19:15,370 question bill. How many citation have we written for this violation? 3441 04:19:16,710 --> 04:19:21,530 I don't know the total number and it's rarely, it's rarely the principal violation. 3442 04:19:21,930 --> 04:19:26,270 Mostly there's a violation for overgrowth or something else and then if there's other 3443 04:19:26,270 --> 04:19:30,110 bodies on the property, well, well, who they didn't, they definitely had been 3444 04:19:31,050 --> 04:19:38,130 some very few on commercial properties. We have one right now, I don't know 10 on 3445 04:19:38,130 --> 04:19:45,230 commercial property is exempt. No, we just have to work we're getting there. And when 3446 04:19:45,230 --> 04:19:51,890 we start doing that, you're going to know what I mean. Well, that's kind of my point. 3447 04:19:53,110 --> 04:19:56,790 Either we're going to have an ordinance and enforce it or we should do away with the ordinance. 3448 04:19:57,090 --> 04:20:03,530 Well, we can't issue everybody violation on the same day. I guarantee that I could write 3449 04:20:03,530 --> 04:20:11,030 10 violations a day without spending 30 minutes on containers and I don't have to go look 3450 04:20:11,030 --> 04:20:19,330 there are all main streets I don't know I do and we're now do 40 40 foot tractor trailer trailers 3451 04:20:19,330 --> 04:20:28,170 is that appropriate storage no okay then I can do maybe 15 today and 30 minutes that's my 3452 04:20:28,670 --> 04:20:35,430 We're going to do it, but we're not, and these are all main roads in this county. 3453 04:20:35,710 --> 04:20:40,270 These are not all people backyards, these are all main roads in this county. 3454 04:20:40,870 --> 04:20:41,990 Yes, there's one. 3455 04:20:42,610 --> 04:20:46,850 So if we're going to focus on doing something, at least we could focus on the main roads. 3456 04:20:53,340 --> 04:20:59,280 You know what the Chair makes to you say, excellent point, we're going to open up Pandora's 3457 04:20:59,280 --> 04:21:04,720 box here with this because what's going to happen is if we if we stand behind this and the 3458 04:21:04,720 --> 04:21:10,100 first one or two or three that we start taking you better get ready because with what do we 3459 04:21:10,100 --> 04:21:17,340 have three people now in code enforcement do full one part. They can't even get the the code 3460 04:21:17,340 --> 04:21:22,040 enforcement down on people that have mode to grasp for six months. So what we're doing was spending 3461 04:21:22,040 --> 04:21:29,260 a lot of time going out trying to enforce this with this this out the out the acreage out of 3462 04:21:29,260 --> 04:21:34,740 enforcement is overwhelmed right now, and they're doing a superhuman job trying to go out and 3463 04:21:34,740 --> 04:21:40,140 address these issues of, you know, junk cars in the yard and grass, and stuff where 3464 04:21:40,140 --> 04:21:45,040 snakes are coming out under their property. So I don't want to create a nightmare for Beth 3465 04:21:45,040 --> 04:21:49,700 and Rollo and whoever our other employee is trying to go out and write, you know, violations. 3466 04:21:49,840 --> 04:21:54,320 And then we have to enforce them. So as the chair said, what good is it writing a violation 3467 04:21:54,320 --> 04:21:58,040 if we don't have the staff to go out physically and enforce them. 3468 04:21:58,280 --> 04:22:01,220 I think what we're doing, we're creating one big, gigantic monster. 3469 04:22:02,100 --> 04:22:06,980 Because I've seen, I'm out there a lot, and they are everywhere, everywhere. 3470 04:22:08,980 --> 04:22:11,720 There's an old saying, be careful, it's as important as you like it. 3471 04:22:12,320 --> 04:22:13,540 The monsters are even creating. 3472 04:22:14,760 --> 04:22:17,640 Yeah, because we didn't, we didn't go out and do this. 3473 04:22:18,320 --> 04:22:18,760 Let's go. 3474 04:22:19,940 --> 04:22:29,000 First of all, I think I wrote the original ordinance 25 years ago. 3475 04:22:30,000 --> 04:22:52,620 And it's sort of amazing that we're having this discussion 25 years later, because we spent decades trying to improve our housing stock, trying to improve the property values, and trying to eliminate a time when every weekend, a dozen old mobile homes that were discarded from the coast were brought in here, because it was good enough for Okachovey. 3476 04:22:52,620 --> 04:23:00,960 And, you know, I think I have to concur with Mr. Royce that the code should not be amended, 3477 04:23:01,520 --> 04:23:06,760 unless you don't mind what the community can look like when these things don't have restrictions. 3478 04:23:07,460 --> 04:23:11,480 Because once you open up a Pandora's box, once you open up a Pandora's box, 3479 04:23:11,840 --> 04:23:16,980 to take these containers from transport containers and temporary use containers 3480 04:23:16,980 --> 04:23:32,860 And to make them permanent storage accessories, it's open season, basically, because you don't have as good a reason to say 5, 10 or 15 acres in above, it's okay, because they're not really any different when we can't see them, but if we can't see them, it's okay. 3481 04:23:34,160 --> 04:23:37,460 You're not going to want them in jail, Precise, you're not going to want them in Oak Lake 3482 04:23:37,460 --> 04:23:38,160 the States. 3483 04:23:39,480 --> 04:23:43,980 They, you know, Bill's said they're not appropriate anywhere that's probably not exactly 3484 04:23:43,980 --> 04:23:48,940 true because they are appropriate for temporary storage, I think the code says that. 3485 04:23:49,100 --> 04:23:56,080 For, you know, Walmart at Christmas time with the bicycles, the container that's dropped 3486 04:23:56,080 --> 04:24:00,660 off and unloaded the first part of the week and then picked up another one placed down. 3487 04:24:00,660 --> 04:24:02,880 That's the temporary nature for commercial. 3488 04:24:03,560 --> 04:24:13,280 Commercial has been rolled into, it's a cheap inexpensive way of plopping them down and not having to add under their building or moving to a new building or improving. 3489 04:24:14,260 --> 04:24:16,360 The county's even been seduced by that. 3490 04:24:16,580 --> 04:24:22,520 You know, it's just easy to stick something in it and, you know, hey, it's sort of, I like the idea of having enough room for my lawnmower. 3491 04:24:23,160 --> 04:24:27,940 But I'm not sure that that's a appropriate long-term solution for the county. 3492 04:24:29,660 --> 04:24:35,980 For example, they, you know, I guess they would be there considered a structure if they're going to be used for that kind of a purpose. 3493 04:24:36,800 --> 04:24:41,340 Now can't, we can only have what one or two accessory structures, one or two. 3494 04:24:42,680 --> 04:24:46,180 But it's so I can take three of those and weld them together and I've got one structure. 3495 04:24:47,740 --> 04:24:52,620 Yeah, I'm not sure. We've had people take old single-wise and make triple-wise out of them. 3496 04:24:53,940 --> 04:24:57,560 By screwing them together and cutting holes between both ways between them. 3497 04:24:57,560 --> 04:25:02,240 I'm not sure anyone really considers that's an appropriate use of an old mobile home. 3498 04:25:02,940 --> 04:25:04,420 So I can see problems with that. 3499 04:25:04,560 --> 04:25:10,180 I can see problems with all sorts of nice commercial areas having their next door neighbor 3500 04:25:10,180 --> 04:25:12,500 with those put in the front or back. 3501 04:25:13,540 --> 04:25:18,360 You're going to open up Pandora's box, I agree with Commissioner Colpepper, but probably not 3502 04:25:18,360 --> 04:25:22,620 in a good way by allowing them, I think they need to be enforced. 3503 04:25:24,360 --> 04:25:28,380 And that's a policy decision and I'll rewrite it again if you want. 3504 04:25:29,300 --> 04:25:34,820 Well, what you're exactly partially agree with you when you said in this current way that you're 3505 04:25:34,820 --> 04:25:39,220 addressing this, no, because you don't want these things to pop up in residential neighborhoods like 3506 04:25:39,220 --> 04:25:40,440 or Terry, the beautiful area. 3507 04:25:40,900 --> 04:25:42,460 And I agree with that 100%. 3508 04:25:42,460 --> 04:25:48,800 That's exactly why I suggested looking at amending the policy where nothing can go on any 3509 04:25:48,800 --> 04:25:54,780 area of smaller than five acres and the set that has to be 20% of the width of the property. 3510 04:25:55,240 --> 04:25:59,900 There's things you, I mean we did that for Sheds right now and the fact is in 25 years I'll 3511 04:25:59,900 --> 04:26:06,060 make your point for you. It hasn't exploded in 25 years. You know it's been kept to a pretty normal 3512 04:26:06,060 --> 04:26:11,960 minimum. So now all of a sudden because one person gets a complaint and then once you start let 3513 04:26:11,960 --> 04:26:16,820 these people bring containers on a temporary basis. Okay, they come down and get a permit, 3514 04:26:17,440 --> 04:26:21,600 permit expires in 60 days or 90 days. Then, code enforcement has to go back out and see 3515 04:26:21,600 --> 04:26:27,040 if they've taken it off. So, what you do, if we have to do the staff to do that, John, 3516 04:26:27,180 --> 04:26:27,880 I'd be with you on a person. 3517 04:26:27,880 --> 04:26:33,780 But I suggest the solution to all the ordinances that we're not enforcing is simply not 3518 04:26:33,780 --> 04:26:39,700 writing them off if they serve a purpose. The intention should be to enforce those that serve 3519 04:26:39,700 --> 04:26:45,080 purpose. Now you, as policy makers, have to decide whether it's a valid purpose to allow 3520 04:26:45,080 --> 04:26:50,220 storage containers to be used as permanent accessory structures in residential and 3521 04:26:50,220 --> 04:26:56,960 or commercial value. That's your policy decision. But I'm not sure we should automatically 3522 04:26:56,960 --> 04:27:01,440 eliminate every ordinance that we have in force just because we didn't have the man 3523 04:27:01,440 --> 04:27:04,540 power to do it or the will to do it. 3524 04:27:04,540 --> 04:27:07,340 and I'm not suggesting it in any way, shape or form. 3525 04:27:07,700 --> 04:27:12,540 What I'm suggesting is that, you know, eyes in the beauty, beauty in the eye, the bearholder. 3526 04:27:12,820 --> 04:27:17,900 You know, what's one person's art is another person's disaster, you know, and it's a big 3527 04:27:17,900 --> 04:27:18,220 box. 3528 04:27:18,340 --> 04:27:19,620 But so is utility shed. 3529 04:27:19,900 --> 04:27:20,320 So what do you do? 3530 04:27:20,500 --> 04:27:23,000 Do we require people to put lattice work on your utility shed? 3531 04:27:23,120 --> 04:27:23,800 So they look nicer. 3532 04:27:24,340 --> 04:27:26,580 You know, it's a storage shed is what it is, you know? 3533 04:27:26,580 --> 04:27:31,900 And if you've got one, I'm not advocating a 60 foot long storage shed on a residential 3534 04:27:31,900 --> 04:27:32,500 lot. 3535 04:27:32,500 --> 04:27:36,760 What I'm saying is is if someone's got a purpose and they have five acres to mold 3536 04:27:36,760 --> 04:27:40,960 They probably got a pretty good size more and whatever the yard equipment that weedwackers 3537 04:27:40,960 --> 04:27:45,080 You know because a lot of places don't have an existing garage. What do you put the stuff? 3538 04:27:45,120 --> 04:27:51,520 So we're gonna put a utility shed and make a poor slab put a utility shed or they're gonna have a one that's already made up 3539 04:27:51,520 --> 04:27:57,700 There's 10 times stronger and more substantial than what you can buy on people and those aren't cheap either 3540 04:27:57,700 --> 04:28:01,360 You know, I priced him out there $12, $400 and that's about what these utility 3541 04:28:01,360 --> 04:28:04,320 I mean, what these storage containers, you know, cost. 3542 04:28:04,800 --> 04:28:07,120 So I don't think people are doing it for a cost factor. 3543 04:28:07,540 --> 04:28:09,160 I think they're doing it because they know 3544 04:28:09,160 --> 04:28:11,100 that what they put in there is secure. 3545 04:28:11,760 --> 04:28:15,720 And it's not going to blow away in Hurricane Martha, you know, 3546 04:28:15,720 --> 04:28:16,820 and I think that's what it is. 3547 04:28:17,220 --> 04:28:21,020 So listen, you know, I'm just one of one of a board of four people, 3548 04:28:21,200 --> 04:28:23,100 you know, and I'm just making a suggestion 3549 04:28:23,640 --> 04:28:25,260 that I think the one thing that we do, 3550 04:28:25,300 --> 04:28:27,760 I'd rather have my code enforcement not doing things, 3551 04:28:27,800 --> 04:28:31,120 you know, that are more beneficial to the residents of the town, 3552 04:28:31,120 --> 04:28:35,620 They're going out trying to hunt down to find out if somebody's put a 10 acres or 3553 04:28:35,620 --> 04:28:41,820 a 5 acres, put up one of these containers, and they're going out and trying to harass them 3554 04:28:41,820 --> 04:28:46,660 and then we go to the court enforcement and it has to go before the magistrate, and it's just 3555 04:28:47,820 --> 04:28:54,320 I would like to find some way that we can accommodate people without creating a match of nightmare. 3556 04:28:54,640 --> 04:28:55,240 And that's all it is. 3557 04:28:55,560 --> 04:28:56,900 I mean, I don't have one. 3558 04:28:56,900 --> 04:29:01,100 I never replace my utility, so I got a little pump shape, but the thing is, is 3559 04:29:01,100 --> 04:29:06,080 that my area is not the place for you know because I have an acre and a half but I think 3560 04:29:06,080 --> 04:29:10,200 there's places you know with five acres or larger that if they need that for their agricultural 3561 04:29:10,200 --> 04:29:14,600 they decide to have an agricultural business I believe they should be afforded that right. 3562 04:29:22,860 --> 04:29:34,140 The difference between the difference between 8 by 30 of the container is it is just one 3563 04:29:36,140 --> 04:29:41,340 If you go to Home Depot to buy a utility sheet, put on your property, 3564 04:29:43,440 --> 04:29:45,580 most of them are pleasing to look at. 3565 04:29:46,700 --> 04:29:56,620 I think there is a big difference between seeing a big utility sheet that has a roof, then to see a big square metal container on property. 3566 04:30:00,000 --> 04:30:15,260 Mr. Royson is exactly what I'm about to say, because I had this conversation right in the middle of taking a creek house with a guy put a storage shed.

3796 04:43:16,750 --> 04:43:17,630 Are you going to leave the law? 3797 04:43:17,830 --> 04:43:18,930 Of course, it's not something else there. 3798 04:43:19,110 --> 04:43:23,910 For another violation of the law, we are getting less what you just said. 3799 04:43:24,670 --> 04:43:31,670 Another thing I'd like to make common on, I've been delighted to talk first here in us on 3800 04:43:31,670 --> 04:43:36,630 dollars. There's not have any trades where it's only what the law makes you to pay 3801 04:43:36,630 --> 04:43:40,830 them all in the next section. So how can it have to of course not know what 3802 04:43:40,830 --> 04:43:45,310 steps are going to go in the straightest by the step when you do not clarify 3803 04:43:45,310 --> 04:43:50,850 exactly what's going on. Now we've got another way, stating the 20 by the 1020, we don't 3804 04:43:50,850 --> 04:43:55,070 have to explain that. It's a 215 dollar-laying by the way. Now you've got to say 3805 04:43:55,070 --> 04:44:00,810 what needs to be cleaned up. What have been done the first time that the 3806 04:44:00,810 --> 04:44:03,850 But we did have a lot of it. 3807 04:44:03,970 --> 04:44:05,590 And there wouldn't be notice violation that an 3808 04:44:05,590 --> 04:44:07,950 notice of hearing and I have a notice of it. 3809 04:44:07,970 --> 04:44:08,490 That's a lot. 3810 04:44:09,250 --> 04:44:10,190 But in there it comes. 3811 04:44:10,670 --> 04:44:12,890 This last time we got that the all the time, 3812 04:44:13,010 --> 04:44:16,150 because I told them what we had abolished it. 3813 04:44:16,830 --> 04:44:17,730 I guess so. 3814 04:44:18,030 --> 04:44:18,450 Yes, sir. 3815 04:44:18,610 --> 04:44:19,290 I'll write all three of that. 3816 04:44:20,270 --> 04:44:21,130 All right. 3817 04:44:21,430 --> 04:44:23,870 So maybe maybe if you could clean the letter, 3818 04:44:24,130 --> 04:44:25,930 or explain the letter, which is fine, 3819 04:44:26,170 --> 04:44:27,470 but that might have been helpful. 3820 04:44:29,350 --> 04:44:29,790 Okay. 3821 04:44:30,170 --> 04:44:30,590 Thank you. 3822 04:44:46,810 --> 04:44:56,630 Now, this means that anybody that has property, regardless of the acreage, this property size, those have to come off. 3823 04:45:00,000 --> 04:45:29,520 And, you know, pretty much they're not cumbersible as successful storage structures. There are, you know, the commercial farm and properties where a lot of, they call a lot of exemptions from bill and code number stuff. So if it's a property that qualifies for the farm, bill and exemption, it's not much we can do. We certainly, we've always allowed them temporary, we've said to association with bill and permits, kind of like that. But the others, right, there's no turning, there's no limit on zoning district, partial sizing, and they know it. 3824 04:45:30,520 --> 04:45:34,760 But I mean, that's specific to containers, shipping containers. 3825 04:45:35,460 --> 04:45:36,720 Well, now, that's the case. 3826 04:45:37,160 --> 04:45:38,040 Okay, well that's the problem. 3827 04:45:38,120 --> 04:45:38,660 That's the policy. 3828 04:45:39,760 --> 04:45:44,200 And the, on the agenda item also is the talk about accessories, structures, and general 3829 04:45:44,200 --> 04:45:52,260 references, mullongs, the modular buildings, and classrooms, the modular offices, the 3830 04:45:52,260 --> 04:45:57,440 Soviet containers, factory-trailer, dollar stains, and that in the children of the years 3831 04:45:57,440 --> 04:46:03,240 have commonly come to be used for a successful story, you know, that was never the original 3832 04:46:03,240 --> 04:46:07,840 chance of that structure.

I mean, it would be helpful to me. And then, of course, obviously, 3994 04:57:59,600 --> 04:58:02,960 if we enforce the ordinance, it won't be easy for people to move. I'm assuming you had 3995 04:58:02,960 --> 04:58:06,160 to have a truck come get them. Right? 3996 04:58:08,350 --> 04:58:10,770 So you had to give, obviously, it can't be a 30 thing. 3997 04:58:11,050 --> 04:58:12,350 It probably is to be more than that. 3998 04:58:12,790 --> 04:58:16,890 I mean, if you even want to think about this world, then, because once we start, once we start, 3999 04:58:16,890 --> 04:58:22,270 you could either restart, not for the first ones, anyway, once we start in the following, 4000 04:58:22,270 --> 04:58:23,850 and we start or we don't. 4001 04:58:23,970 --> 04:58:27,930 Last thing that I believe is start and we have some people 4002 04:58:27,930 --> 04:58:30,430 have to move theirs and then at some point 4003 04:58:30,430 --> 04:58:32,930 and get some comfortable inside the stop to and then. 4004 04:58:33,370 --> 04:58:34,930 So we're going to be part of the people here 4005 04:58:34,930 --> 04:58:37,150 because the first person doesn't have to head to them there. 4006 04:58:37,310 --> 04:58:39,330 So I'm going to get them to start or we don't. 4007 04:58:39,770 --> 04:58:42,790 If they're in the city limits, does it? 4008 04:58:42,810 --> 04:58:44,090 I don't know if the city regulation is not. 4009 04:58:44,450 --> 04:58:46,010 I don't know if the city regulation is not. 4010 04:58:46,170 --> 04:58:49,050 So I'm just saying, we don't, it's not them 4011 04:58:49,050 --> 04:58:52,230 all along to our ordinance, if you tend to say landings for us. 4012 04:58:52,570 --> 04:58:59,010 Okay, I mean, I didn't make a deal, but so I think I think a number of good things 4013 04:58:59,010 --> 04:59:04,890 that come out of this discussion, number one is whatever you decide code enforcement will have 4014 04:59:04,890 --> 04:59:09,570 a validation that if that's what you want, it's not just a leftover from an older ordinance, 4015 04:59:10,250 --> 04:59:14,530 because you will get phone calls and you already have phone calls about some of the enhanced 4016 04:59:14,530 --> 04:59:16,150 code enforcement they've been doing. 4017 04:59:17,330 --> 04:59:22,110 So, but, you know, you need to, at some point, make a decision, you know, you can make 4018 04:59:22,110 --> 04:59:22,550 several of them. 4019 04:59:22,630 --> 04:59:24,590 You can say, all right, we want to think about it some more. 4020 04:59:25,070 --> 04:59:27,910 Don't really enforce the shipping and standards, no, we make a decision. 4021 04:59:28,210 --> 04:59:33,190 That sort of puts code enforcement in a bad situation, because you'll have people, next 4022 04:59:33,190 --> 04:59:36,730 or neighbors, complaining about it, especially after they've heard some of this dialogue. 4023 04:59:37,410 --> 04:59:42,050 You could say, all right, we are not inclined to change the ordinance or start the process 4024 04:59:42,050 --> 04:59:44,270 to change the ordinance, because it is an LER. 4025 04:59:44,270 --> 04:59:48,190 So I'd go to the planning board for us and then come back to you, and that's a fairly drawn-up process. 4026 04:59:49,130 --> 04:59:56,270 Or we're not inclined to change the ordinance, but we do want to see an action plan towards how you are going to address these to code enforcement. 4027 04:59:57,010 --> 04:59:59,970 So at least give them some certainty of what they should be doing with their day. 4028 05:00:03,440 --> 05:00:07,920 May 1st, I'm not in plan. If you suggest we'll be away from the board. 4029 05:00:08,580 --> 05:00:08,780 For that. 4030 05:00:10,180 --> 05:00:14,800 See, option 3 is pretty good. It's a good plan. How you going to handle it? 4031 05:00:16,880 --> 05:00:17,400 I need to do that. 4032 05:00:21,580 --> 05:00:25,120 Well, yeah. You need to have a plan, but how you going to handle it. 4033 05:00:25,240 --> 05:00:31,360 Because if you send us back to the planning board, it's going to come back. 4034 05:00:32,020 --> 05:00:36,640 negative, they're not going to go, they're not going to change us. I'm guaranteed I'm not going to change it. 4035 05:00:37,000 --> 05:00:43,440 So don't even think about that. Go set a plan. How are you going to manage the existing ordinance? 4036 05:00:43,980 --> 05:00:44,880 Come back with a plan? 4037 05:00:47,780 --> 05:00:50,000 I don't think you're going to be in a way for back and forth. 4038 05:00:50,360 --> 05:00:53,820 I mean, just move on with this there and do enforce what's there. 4039 05:00:54,540 --> 05:00:57,660 I mean, I don't like to hear that we're not going to enforce the ordinance. We're going to enforce the ordinance. 4040 05:00:57,720 --> 05:01:00,020 We're just getting forced all the ordinance up every property. 4041 05:01:04,020 --> 05:01:09,100 I think we understand that can't be simultaneously, and obviously we know it's not instantaneous. 4042 05:01:10,400 --> 05:01:15,440 So, because my thought sitting here is, you know, the shipping containers aren't permitted. 4043 05:01:15,560 --> 05:01:17,440 There is no list of where they are. 4044 05:01:17,780 --> 05:01:22,940 I mean, it's going to be as, there's some they know, but they can't possibly know where every single one is. 4045 05:01:23,220 --> 05:01:23,840 I can't imagine. 4046 05:01:24,280 --> 05:01:26,660 Because there's nothing in our records that they exist. 4047 05:01:27,300 --> 05:01:29,220 So that means they've got to find them. 4048 05:01:33,320 --> 05:01:41,890 So, when you do find them, you have to give them a certain length of time to remove them. 4049 05:01:42,190 --> 05:01:43,370 I mean, it's not like that. 4050 05:01:43,370 --> 05:01:47,790 A lot of these people that have them probably don't even have the money to remove them. 4051 05:01:48,070 --> 05:01:51,670 I will certainly accept that although we've never told anybody that they have them. 4052 05:01:51,790 --> 05:01:55,790 They call an answer and come and ask, the answer is no, you can't have that. 4053 05:01:56,610 --> 05:01:59,130 So, you know, never told anybody, can't have them. 4054 05:01:59,270 --> 05:02:01,710 I will acknowledge that they have been there for a while. 4055 05:02:01,850 --> 05:02:05,070 Some of them we probably have seen and not mentioned about. 4056 05:02:05,190 --> 05:02:06,450 They should know this for that. 4057 05:02:06,770 --> 05:02:08,430 Some violations are pretty easy. 4058 05:02:08,890 --> 05:02:14,890 The standard is 14 days to get some of their captions and go and go and be able to do the extension, 4059 05:02:15,550 --> 05:02:17,350 but you do not have to submit your attention now. 4060 05:02:17,450 --> 05:02:18,650 I can acknowledge something like this. 4061 05:02:18,870 --> 05:02:20,550 It's not a 14-day stitch. 4062 05:02:20,890 --> 05:02:24,730 If you realize you have to do that, you're going to have to find some alternative for whatever 4063 05:02:24,730 --> 05:02:30,150 I'm going to stop getting over there and if we're to be in it, so we're going to be like 15 days. 4064 05:02:31,230 --> 05:02:33,490 I assume I make a suggestion, this is something about it. 4065 05:02:33,650 --> 05:02:37,790 If we're going to do this, and if we're going to enforce this, they're going to make a suggestion. 4066 05:02:38,810 --> 05:02:42,670 But the county, let's clean out our own house first, give it a divorce. 4067 05:02:43,150 --> 05:02:49,110 Then if we're going to do this, then the people will come back to us and complain and say, we took them off our property. 4068 05:02:50,470 --> 05:02:53,850 So then at least they understand that we're not holding two standards. 4069 05:02:54,730 --> 05:02:57,350 Then if we're going to do this, let's get rid of ours first. 4070 05:02:58,050 --> 05:02:58,110 Okay. 4071 05:02:58,150 --> 05:03:03,370 And then say, okay, now we've gotten rid of ours to show good faith that we are not treating ourselves 4072 05:03:03,370 --> 05:03:05,130 any different than what we're treating you. 4073 05:03:05,290 --> 05:03:06,450 I think it should be simultaneous. 4074 05:03:07,150 --> 05:03:08,930 And I'm supposed to get with staff to get rid of ours now. 4075 05:03:09,170 --> 05:03:09,710 Please see, Bill. 4076 05:03:10,130 --> 05:03:13,410 That was the reason I said, go back and develop a plan. 4077 05:03:17,730 --> 05:03:25,990 That's what I want you to do is come back, said number one, give you what's the counties, make sure that we're clean, and then go work on the rest of the people. 4078 05:03:27,130 --> 05:03:28,010 That's a plan. 4079 05:03:28,870 --> 05:03:35,890 We can sit here and go back and forth, but Mr. Calpever just give you the basis of your plan to figure out how to get the same done. 4080 05:03:36,870 --> 05:03:42,090 And I think, but I think it's important to be clear that, for example, you're not going, 4081 05:03:42,110 --> 05:03:46,510 if you have any in-process, you're not going to just halt until you have a plan. 4082 05:03:47,210 --> 05:03:47,250 Right. 4083 05:03:47,250 --> 05:03:52,810 If you're there on some other issue, and you see it sitting right next to the junk car, 4084 05:03:53,030 --> 05:03:54,830 you're not going to ignore it because you're going to have a plan. 4085 05:03:55,210 --> 05:04:02,330 But for this, basically, broad wholesale attempt to get these under control, that's the plan you're looking for. 4086 05:04:02,330 --> 05:04:02,570 Right. 4087 05:04:02,750 --> 05:04:03,270 That's correct. 4088 05:04:13,920 --> 05:04:14,540 Thank you, Bill. 4089 05:04:14,540 --> 05:04:17,600 Thank you for the bill. 4090 05:04:17,680 --> 05:04:18,960 It's been a long day. 4091 05:04:21,920 --> 05:04:22,040 Yeah. 4092 05:04:30,240 --> 05:04:30,840 Okay. 4093 05:04:32,280 --> 05:04:35,020 Last item is a discussion fed of ramps. 4094 05:04:36,630 --> 05:04:37,310 Just not sure what. 4095 05:04:40,610 --> 05:04:45,710 So, in some doing some research on sidewalk money, 4096 05:04:46,410 --> 05:04:47,510 this is how this came about, 4097 05:04:47,990 --> 05:04:51,690 because I was looking for other ways to pay for the fastwood sidewalk 4098 05:04:51,690 --> 05:05:01,830 I came across this company who basically does research on and applies for federal grants 4099 05:05:01,830 --> 05:05:06,390 and all kinds of stuff and had an interesting conversation really it's that that I want 4100 05:05:06,390 --> 05:05:11,230 to talk about and then see if you want to move forward or look at this in a different way 4101 05:05:11,910 --> 05:05:16,850 but when I talk to this particular company they said you know pretty much I bet you had 4102 05:05:16,850 --> 05:05:22,370 quite a bit of dollars on the table in terms of federal rents and that there are lots of 4103 05:05:22,370 --> 05:05:28,910 things that are available that range from sidewalks to rural broadband, which I told 4104 05:05:28,910 --> 05:05:33,350 them I wasn't interested in, to cultural facilities, 4105 05:05:36,330 --> 05:05:39,230 to ambulance equipment, fire trucks, 4106 05:05:40,030 --> 05:05:48,290 schools, water and wastewater, and that's why I kind of bring those out because of the cost of this. 4107 05:05:48,690 --> 05:05:55,930 You know, but there were so many grants and they said that they returned on investment for the cost of them doing all of that to make those applications. 4108 05:05:56,290 --> 05:06:00,710 And probably on behalf of the county is from as small as a three to one. 4109 05:06:00,710 --> 05:06:08,170 So, for instance, if it's $100,000 to hire these people, you're getting about $3 million in return. 4110 05:06:08,930 --> 05:06:12,210 Usually that's what happens, and he said, as it's high as $10 to 1. 4111 05:06:13,210 --> 05:06:23,610 So, it's just, I thought it was an interesting concept that you have somebody out there who's actually hunting down these dollars and applying them for them for you. 4112 05:06:23,670 --> 05:06:27,730 Based on the certain check list that you tell them, these are the ones I want you to go look for. 4113 05:06:27,730 --> 05:06:35,770 And, you know, but will maybe, you know, since it could help the school who's in the process and I haven't talked to them about any of this. 4114 05:06:36,510 --> 05:06:39,870 But, you know, it could help maybe the school looking for dollars to build a new high school. 4115 05:06:40,390 --> 05:06:45,110 I thought about oh you way and some of the things that they're trying to do. 4116 05:06:45,670 --> 05:06:47,910 And, you know, really need only look at state dollars. 4117 05:06:48,410 --> 05:06:51,050 On our side was very little federal dollars we look at. 4118 05:06:51,130 --> 05:06:54,610 And I understand your position on federal dollars and actually, 4119 05:06:55,230 --> 05:06:59,550 Interestingly enough, that is a concept that may even bring out by a lot of people don't 4120 05:06:59,550 --> 05:07:02,510 is because they don't feel like the federal government can afford it. 4121 05:07:02,710 --> 05:07:05,230 But there are potentially programs sitting there that are funded. 4122 05:07:06,530 --> 05:07:09,810 I mean, and it goes on into housing and I mean, which I'm not interested in the housing 4123 05:07:09,810 --> 05:07:10,430 dollars either. 4124 05:07:10,910 --> 05:07:15,990 But I just thought it was interesting that there was a whole list of things that are out there 4125 05:07:15,990 --> 05:07:20,590 and available for funding, a few of those which we already have budgeted in, you know, 4126 05:07:20,590 --> 05:07:26,510 and are intending to spend their own dollars on and thought maybe we would be interested in pursuing another source. 4127 05:07:35,710 --> 05:07:48,790 Hearing them does not fall in our procurement policy, so we definitely want to go out to bid and see who else is out there. I'm not advocating any one group, but definitely was like, okay, well, we could, you know, right now. 4128 05:07:49,310 --> 05:07:52,530 Our P, and put it out there and see who else would respond. 4129 05:07:55,110 --> 05:08:04,830 Well, this is a philosophical thing, and like I've explained, realistically that if we turn 4130 05:08:04,830 --> 05:08:09,710 a grant down, doesn't mean that everybody else is going to say, well, you know, I know 4131 05:08:09,710 --> 05:08:13,130 what's irresponsible because the government, you know, shouldn't be, and it's going to stop 4132 05:08:13,130 --> 05:08:13,950 them for it. 4133 05:08:13,950 --> 05:08:19,050 As long as there's politicians and we're all one of them, you know, in Tallahassee and 4134 05:08:19,050 --> 05:08:22,850 in Washington, that one of the things they're going to do is they're going to offer these grants, 4135 05:08:23,170 --> 05:08:28,650 and especially if you're a county of critical need, and you're in the internal part 4136 05:08:28,650 --> 05:08:32,730 of the state, well, we don't have the benefits of the outside parts of the state's town. 4137 05:08:33,490 --> 05:08:38,110 I think it's unrealistic to say, well, because we don't take it, that they'll stop doing. 4138 05:08:38,170 --> 05:08:39,570 They're going to continue doing it. 4139 05:08:39,730 --> 05:08:44,850 And many things that we have seen in services is completely funded by Ramon, so if it wasn't for 4140 05:08:44,850 --> 05:08:48,570 that we may not be able to offer that benefit to a lot of people. 4141 05:08:49,250 --> 05:08:53,830 So I'm of the firm belief that there's grants out there available and it will improve 4142 05:08:53,830 --> 05:08:58,250 the quality of life of the residents, of what we shall be, or whatever other county. 4143 05:08:58,910 --> 05:09:00,570 Then I'm all for checking in those grants. 4144 05:09:00,730 --> 05:09:04,810 Some of them may be of a match that we can't afford, and that when you have the pass on. 4145 05:09:05,410 --> 05:09:11,430 But I think once that we have a grant, a match that's realistic, I just may, you know, 4146 05:09:11,630 --> 05:09:14,410 and I'm not debating anybody who's good, better than the other way. 4147 05:09:14,410 --> 05:09:19,670 That's just my philosophical view, is that if it's something that we can do to make our community safer, 4148 05:09:21,730 --> 05:09:25,950 I'd like to look at it, you know, and this is the way everybody knows if you try to go and do this yourself, 4149 05:09:26,490 --> 05:09:30,030 you don't have the access to the people that are actually doing these grants. 4150 05:09:30,510 --> 05:09:35,870 And it would take so much time, or if you pay somebody to do that for you and pay them a commission to do it, 4151 05:09:35,950 --> 05:09:37,190 I think it's responsible. 4152 05:09:37,190 --> 05:09:41,130 And I would certainly like to utilize any possible means that we can. 4153 05:09:41,290 --> 05:09:47,710 To fix the things we need to do because we don't have those dollars of a lot of the areas, the coastal areas now. 4154 05:09:48,170 --> 05:09:49,470 So, I'm all about it. 4155 05:09:49,530 --> 05:09:53,690 You know, if the board sees fit to contract with someone, 4156 05:09:54,070 --> 05:09:56,190 but RFP, I'm behind 100%. 4157 05:09:56,890 --> 05:09:58,390 I am too hot. 4158 05:09:59,110 --> 05:10:03,110 Did Clyde's County was there to regret their high school? 4159 05:10:04,130 --> 05:10:09,590 It is great funded, it wasn't, yeah. I just don't know how much it was where I funded. 4160 05:10:10,110 --> 05:10:17,890 It was a significant amount of money, and I think there was more state than federal, but it was really surprised what they received. 4161 05:10:19,190 --> 05:10:19,970 I'll make sure you put it in there. 4162 05:10:22,670 --> 05:10:30,450 Well, I think what Robby was focused on too is this particular individual or this company basically, so they have a fairly decent record. 4163 05:10:33,170 --> 05:10:42,910 And given that they're record, even though we got to go up for here, I mean, I think going out for these particular grants and trying to at least find the money for sidewalks and things with that sort. 4164 05:10:43,970 --> 05:10:44,510 That's a good opportunity. 4165 05:10:44,670 --> 05:10:49,690 At least take a look at it and see what the viable by tell our viability of it is. 4166 05:10:49,930 --> 05:10:54,430 If it's something good, then because if we don't ever take a look at things, we never know if it's good or bad or different. 4167 05:10:55,370 --> 05:11:03,370 So at least I would like to go out and take a look at it and create the RAP and go for it. 4168 05:11:03,510 --> 05:11:07,150 No, we should have more information if you want to move forward. 4169 05:11:07,590 --> 05:11:10,430 It shouldn't be too hard to nail down who's successful and who's not. 4170 05:11:10,730 --> 05:11:10,750 Right. 4171 05:11:10,810 --> 05:11:11,890 That should be pretty easy to pinpoint. 4172 05:11:15,890 --> 05:11:17,510 Yes, just with school of starting, 4173 05:11:20,350 --> 05:11:24,110 you just see how many places need sidewalls. 4174 05:11:26,170 --> 05:11:29,110 We definitely need to be more mobile right. 4175 05:11:30,450 --> 05:11:31,310 Protester in mobile. 4176 05:11:31,530 --> 05:11:32,290 I should say. 4177 05:11:32,870 --> 05:11:34,370 I'm already bad at hunting the sidewalks. 4178 05:11:34,410 --> 05:11:36,850 I think we do the drainage and reset those positions. 4179 05:11:38,210 --> 05:11:42,930 I mean, those people have been promised for a long time that we were going to work to do something, 4180 05:11:43,230 --> 05:11:46,310 especially in the Wichbring Pines area, which really, really bad. 4181 05:11:47,190 --> 05:11:50,510 And to do the sidewalks in conjunction with resetting those elevations, 4182 05:11:50,510 --> 05:11:56,590 Can that drain the job there's going to be, you know, if you truly want to attract new people into a community 4183 05:11:57,110 --> 05:12:02,950 These things that you do are going to make it just exactly to be attractive to someone by those lots of 4184 05:12:02,950 --> 05:12:04,510 And start to add to what tax base 4185 05:12:09,570 --> 05:12:11,010 So a few other little things 4186 05:12:11,850 --> 05:12:13,090 We're done with the regular agenda 4187 05:12:13,650 --> 05:12:20,470 I mentioned this I think during the workshop we have a request from 4188 05:12:22,650 --> 05:12:30,670 ready to write a letter or support to them for a heartland, ready, rural development grant 4189 05:12:30,670 --> 05:12:36,950 application that is being submitted to the Department of Economic Opportunity and so I just 4190 05:12:36,950 --> 05:12:42,930 want to know if the board wants to do that. I have a sample letter here that we can use and I 4191 05:12:42,930 --> 05:12:50,130 would say put the chair signature on it. I just have a new resolution today. Okay. So you may want 4192 05:12:50,130 --> 05:12:54,270 to check your email. I just saw it already after lunch. 4193 05:12:54,550 --> 05:12:59,050 I didn't see it. Mark Morton sent it to me wanted to know. 4194 05:12:59,290 --> 05:13:04,410 It's a resolution piece that they want for us to sign off on. 4195 05:13:05,570 --> 05:13:08,290 That was not in one of my. 4196 05:13:08,450 --> 05:13:10,150 It wasn't. 4197 05:13:11,110 --> 05:13:13,410 That's all in it. I think that's it. 4198 05:13:23,620 --> 05:13:32,720 Let me send that to you and maybe we can put that back on because this is a resolution document 4199 05:13:32,720 --> 05:13:37,480 that came out or meeting in the rules in Orlando a couple of months ago. 4200 05:13:37,680 --> 05:13:38,340 That's the same one. 4201 05:13:38,480 --> 05:13:39,760 It's very summer to that. 4202 05:13:40,040 --> 05:13:41,680 But I think they have modified it. 4203 05:13:45,310 --> 05:13:46,270 What is this for? 4204 05:13:47,430 --> 05:13:49,890 It's for a grant to fund Freddie basically. 4205 05:13:50,450 --> 05:13:54,970 They don't have very little operating dollars except for what the counties are contributing. 4206 05:13:54,970 --> 05:14:04,190 and so they don't have an executive director. Currently there's she was designed I guess 4207 05:14:04,190 --> 05:14:08,930 and now she's a consultant and just to handling the Florida broadband stuff. Finishing 4208 05:14:08,930 --> 05:14:15,750 that up so you know they're pretty group is looking for a way to find funding sources to 4209 05:14:15,750 --> 05:14:21,390 continue on and the regional planning board of South West Florida. 4210 05:14:21,390 --> 05:14:23,230 No, it's self-west. 4211 05:14:23,250 --> 05:14:23,850 Oh, self-west. 4212 05:14:24,070 --> 05:14:24,290 We can. 4213 05:14:25,070 --> 05:14:27,090 It is writing the grant to them. 4214 05:14:27,270 --> 05:14:28,530 They're actually sick. 4215 05:14:28,770 --> 05:14:29,990 Well, maybe this is two things. 4216 05:14:30,430 --> 05:14:31,410 I think they're two different things. 4217 05:14:31,410 --> 05:14:32,710 This may be two different things, 4218 05:14:32,790 --> 05:14:35,270 because this is a resolution that come out, 4219 05:14:35,350 --> 05:14:36,890 because of the grant process, 4220 05:14:37,030 --> 05:14:39,410 says that you have to use, 4221 05:14:40,150 --> 05:14:42,470 you cannot get the money in two, 4222 05:14:42,670 --> 05:14:43,350 you use money, 4223 05:14:43,510 --> 05:14:45,290 and we wanted to change the process 4224 05:14:45,290 --> 05:14:46,810 so that we could get the grant 4225 05:14:46,810 --> 05:14:48,630 so that we could hire the person. 4226 05:14:48,630 --> 05:14:51,490 So the EO said you could not. 4227 05:14:51,910 --> 05:14:53,670 The EO gives Freddie money as well. 4228 05:14:53,670 --> 05:14:55,210 This is an addition to that. 4229 05:14:55,590 --> 05:14:59,650 And what that discussion was about is that... 4230 05:15:00,530 --> 05:15:28,270 Genie had told the board was, it's always paying reimbursing. You don't have money up front and solicitation on money front. You can't pay the person. So if you can't pay the person, you have nothing to reimburse. Does it not have a cap? Well, a little cash. So that was kind of, they're in a financial financial impact on us. They just want to write a letter. Right. The letter for the grant is all we're on what I'm asking is just that the board write a letter to Freddie and support of the grant application that goes to DEO. That's all it is. 4231 05:15:30,630 --> 05:15:35,950 We're all fine with that. Yeah, there's right because they stayed how much I asked before about it 4232 05:15:35,950 --> 05:15:42,410 Not in the letter. No, I could find out for you how much I think it's 145. That's a tire and 45 4233 05:15:44,010 --> 05:15:46,950 This one is allocated already. It's just the process 4234 05:15:46,950 --> 05:15:54,550 They're asking for the money, but which the other process on this resolution is to change how it's the green underbody 4235 05:15:54,550 --> 05:16:00,510 Right now you have to spend your own dollars and get a reimbursement process and reimbursement process is being held up 4236 05:16:00,530 --> 05:16:07,810 anywhere between one quarter to two quarters. So it's not really conducive of what we 4237 05:16:07,810 --> 05:16:12,430 are trying to do. So they wanted to change it around so that you would get the money 4238 05:16:12,430 --> 05:16:17,290 and then report it back on a quarterly basis how are you used the money. So I just 4239 05:16:17,290 --> 05:16:22,770 think that wasn't the resolution to hear. Thank you. Okay, so we'll have. You're okay with 4240 05:16:22,770 --> 05:16:27,150 more, couple 4241 05:16:31,560 --> 05:16:37,500 of real quick updates. I did talk to Ed Mayer early last week about the status 4242 05:16:37,500 --> 05:16:42,260 of Okotini, and so I'm going to try as I hear, make sure that I report to the board 4243 05:16:42,260 --> 05:16:49,960 what's going on. And just three pieces of information they have done a tree survey, and 4244 05:16:49,960 --> 05:16:55,260 I've decided what they're going to do as far as retaining trees. They have consulted with 4245 05:16:55,260 --> 05:17:02,740 affluent, affluent consultants to get a different ideas and thoughts on technology for 4246 05:17:02,740 --> 05:17:10,300 handling the waste other than what they're currently hearing and they have hired a design 4247 05:17:10,300 --> 05:17:20,100 architect to design the what they call the downtown area of the developer. So that's the status 4248 05:17:20,100 --> 05:17:27,200 of where they're at. The county has one piece that we're looking at and that has to do with 4249 05:17:27,200 --> 05:17:33,660 the hog island portion and as you may recall the EP in their agreement with us says that 4250 05:17:33,660 --> 05:17:38,080 they have revenue reversions that they would like to have and when we dealt with this before with 4251 05:17:38,080 --> 05:17:47,120 Randall Henderson, there's some discussion about what those dollars might be. So, in looking at that 4252 05:17:47,620 --> 05:17:52,600 in handling it, we may want to look at, do we want to, do we want to, do Reven 4253 05:17:52,600 --> 05:17:57,100 and Sharon, or should we request it as outright own the hog line on piece of 4254 05:17:57,100 --> 05:18:03,880 opportunity? And see what DEP thinks, you know, it would cost to basically pay them 4255 05:18:03,880 --> 05:18:05,620 for that property and then own it outright. 4256 05:18:08,600 --> 05:18:12,440 And then that would be done and over with, they would have their revenue, they wouldn't be 4257 05:18:12,440 --> 05:18:16,780 wondering what's the guarantee, you know, on the revenue, because, you know, none of us have 4258 05:18:16,780 --> 05:18:22,020 crystal ball to save what this development is going to literally generate over what percentage 4259 05:18:22,020 --> 05:18:26,940 of this idea. Just the hog island piece which is the back piece from the boat ramps. 4260 05:18:26,940 --> 05:18:28,220 That's the percentage of the property. 4261 05:18:28,900 --> 05:18:33,840 You know, it's about 50% percent. 4262 05:18:34,820 --> 05:18:36,920 That's kind of what they own if they own it. 4263 05:18:36,920 --> 05:18:38,300 We've versioned it. Yes. 4264 05:18:39,200 --> 05:18:40,300 We've rearing this. 4265 05:18:41,980 --> 05:18:47,560 When we first talked about that, there was a issue with the way they would want to sell the 4266 05:18:47,560 --> 05:18:51,220 for a 50, let's start at 99 and they kind of the 50 year period. 4267 05:18:51,920 --> 05:18:55,680 They want a 50% of the sale of each law. 4268 05:18:56,280 --> 05:18:57,100 That's where they started. 4269 05:18:57,580 --> 05:18:59,740 That's what within negotiations was going back and forth 4270 05:18:59,740 --> 05:19:01,160 and it's all the project was ended. 4271 05:19:02,100 --> 05:19:04,560 So assuming this is where this came from, 4272 05:19:05,020 --> 05:19:06,520 we're going back to this thing about, 4273 05:19:06,940 --> 05:19:09,140 we gave it to them with no regulations, 4274 05:19:09,780 --> 05:19:12,060 we got it back with regulations, you know, so I guess. 4275 05:19:12,060 --> 05:19:13,160 Right, so that's where we're at. 4276 05:19:13,260 --> 05:19:15,640 And so we're trying to resolve it once and for all, 4277 05:19:15,640 --> 05:19:20,640 trying to look at this long term in future as sick for the county and you know just 4278 05:19:21,800 --> 05:19:25,880 we're we're thinking as we might like to approach the agency with their ideas about 4279 05:19:26,320 --> 05:19:30,740 that arm and bring those ideas back to the board. 4280 05:19:31,300 --> 05:19:35,720 Okay we do a property swap, parts of property swap with Scott Dyer. 4281 05:19:38,030 --> 05:19:39,490 We're under lease with Scott Dyer. 4282 05:19:41,150 --> 05:19:43,750 Pretty sure I don't think he owns Scott Dyer. 4283 05:19:45,430 --> 05:19:53,190 I think that is self-alarm management, at least, yes, that right, so no, yes, that's all. 4284 05:19:54,230 --> 05:19:59,630 So are you suggesting that we either share the revenue or buy the property? 4285 05:20:00,390 --> 05:20:04,030 Well, they're going to suggest sharing the revenue and we don't know what that's going to be yet. 4286 05:20:04,330 --> 05:20:05,750 We know DP. 4287 05:20:06,110 --> 05:20:11,710 We know from a agreement they have with someone in self-order that it was 50% of the revenues. 4288 05:20:12,510 --> 05:20:16,430 But we, what we don't know is, we don't have a revenue that we can. 4289 05:20:18,650 --> 05:20:20,530 Mr. Mises would get a dollar a year. 4290 05:20:20,650 --> 05:20:21,310 It'll be $56. 4291 05:20:21,950 --> 05:20:22,330 Will I? 4292 05:20:22,970 --> 05:20:24,950 It's sort of approaching this another way. 4293 05:20:27,920 --> 05:20:32,440 The, the back end loading of our revenue under the proposal by Guy Harvey 4294 05:20:32,440 --> 05:20:37,960 is not going to be real enticing to the state unless they have a, 4295 05:20:38,480 --> 05:20:41,360 a new, an opportunity based on the guy Harvey, 4296 05:20:41,360 --> 05:20:48,940 coming to this facility. So we have a real problem of what are they going to demand in 4297 05:20:48,940 --> 05:20:56,840 light of this revenue stream? Are they even going to accept that? And we're going to hit 4298 05:20:56,840 --> 05:21:02,100 this if Guy Harvey, for example, at the end of the diligence decides that this is not economical 4299 05:21:02,100 --> 05:21:07,360 for them, which is a possibility. Then we're back to either us developing it or finding someone else 4300 05:21:07,360 --> 05:21:09,360 We're going to have the same issue all over again. 4301 05:21:10,180 --> 05:21:13,400 So the thought was perhaps this is the time, 4302 05:21:13,700 --> 05:21:16,200 while there could be some honeymoon between Guy Harvey 4303 05:21:16,200 --> 05:21:19,440 and the state to actually approach the state and say, 4304 05:21:19,780 --> 05:21:22,720 all right, we want to buy out, get in a prison, 4305 05:21:23,040 --> 05:21:26,040 buy out the value of their reversionary interest, 4306 05:21:26,260 --> 05:21:28,960 so that we can cut our deal with Guy Harvey, 4307 05:21:29,720 --> 05:21:32,280 or another son of Guy Harvey or who'd never, 4308 05:21:32,440 --> 05:21:34,960 if Guy Harvey decides they don't want to do it. 4309 05:21:34,960 --> 05:21:40,120 But you're a free player to then develop the way you want it. That was the thought. 4310 05:21:41,770 --> 05:21:42,570 Good thought. 4311 05:21:46,120 --> 05:21:47,480 And we even looked at some dollars. 4312 05:21:48,040 --> 05:21:48,800 Where they come from? 4313 05:21:49,200 --> 05:21:50,380 And do you even have it? 4314 05:21:50,680 --> 05:21:51,960 By any stretch of your imagination. 4315 05:21:52,700 --> 05:21:53,200 What do you think? 4316 05:21:53,360 --> 05:21:55,300 I mean, is there been an appraisal recently done on that. 4317 05:21:55,500 --> 05:21:56,160 Good evening. 4318 05:21:56,420 --> 05:21:57,040 Let's say for us. 4319 05:21:57,460 --> 05:21:58,940 No, and that would be right. 4320 05:21:59,400 --> 05:22:02,640 That what one of the things that we would want to do is get an appraisal on it. 4321 05:22:02,700 --> 05:22:04,080 So we know what its value is. 4322 05:22:04,980 --> 05:22:05,960 I think that's a good approach. 4323 05:22:07,840 --> 05:22:13,360 because you know they're beefies, it's not a very equitable part or sometimes. 4324 05:22:14,660 --> 05:22:17,700 But this time they're going to be since we're driving the first freeing the internet. 4325 05:22:18,220 --> 05:22:18,640 That's fine. 4326 05:22:20,920 --> 05:22:23,380 So I think that's a good approach. 4327 05:22:24,200 --> 05:22:25,220 At least have an option. 4328 05:22:26,240 --> 05:22:29,980 Because it might be harder to sell them on a weary limited rip. 4329 05:22:33,250 --> 05:22:35,470 At least, look at this, what was our fault? 4330 05:22:35,730 --> 05:22:37,130 Can we be looking to have a watch? 4331 05:22:37,350 --> 05:22:38,790 That was one voice of us. 4332 05:22:39,030 --> 05:22:39,330 Permit? 4333 05:22:39,650 --> 05:22:42,670 You can look at several options, you know, whichever one seems to have. 4334 05:22:42,830 --> 05:22:43,230 I don't know. 4335 05:22:43,510 --> 05:22:44,470 We're going to read you the other one. 4336 05:22:45,550 --> 05:22:45,870 Permit? 4337 05:22:46,330 --> 05:22:47,690 Well, I can't read you. 4338 05:22:49,110 --> 05:22:51,610 I just, you know, like, send it in. 4339 05:22:52,050 --> 05:22:53,390 How much you made to send it in? 4340 05:22:54,090 --> 05:22:54,150 What? 4341 05:22:54,910 --> 05:23:03,230 I think I shared that some months, maybe, year ago, about... 4342 05:23:03,230 --> 05:23:08,570 the front and then we have basically for three years point out more and more years with it in your lives. 4343 05:23:09,370 --> 05:23:12,890 And we could not come to me today, we would just be involved. 4344 05:23:16,380 --> 05:23:18,000 Well, I mean, we were willing to buy out from it. 4345 05:23:19,480 --> 05:23:22,280 It's just, it has got a bizarre shirt. 4346 05:23:22,420 --> 05:23:24,360 I mean, it's a way I look at it right now.

So awarded. 4401 05:26:28,860 --> 05:26:34,100 The River Lake of States area, we're familiar with all the culverts and they did some surveying 4402 05:26:34,100 --> 05:26:40,840 in there. That project is beginning to negotiate with the engineering firm to do the design. 4403 05:26:40,840 --> 05:26:48,100 So Gene's role in that is to be the liaison between us and another engineering firm. 4404 05:26:48,220 --> 05:26:59,900 So if you'll be doing that, and once that negotiation is confirmed, we'll come to the board for an award on who's going to do the engineering, the design of that River Lake of States, which should be Lake September. 4405 05:27:01,100 --> 05:27:03,320 He's finishing up the sidewalk. 4406 05:27:03,880 --> 05:27:09,880 We'll do the same process on the sidewalks and negotiate with an engineering firm to do the design for the sidewalk on Baswood, 4407 05:27:09,880 --> 05:27:17,840 rates of timber.
