1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,160 when we do the vote. >> Well, I put it at the end. So, that is 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:07,600 up to you guys. >> I have four o'clock. Let's call this 3 00:00:05,759 --> 00:00:09,840 meeting to order. Could I have a motion to approve the agenda? 4 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,120 » Motion [clears throat] to approve the agenda. 5 00:00:10,639 --> 00:00:13,920 » Second. >> All in favor? 6 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:18,960 » I. Let's stand for the pledge of allegiance. 7 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:24,160 I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the 8 00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:28,820 republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and 9 00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:30,840 justice for all. >> [laughter] 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,460 [clears throat] 11 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,600 » What? 12 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:44,600 » Okay. >> Um, our first item on the agenda is 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,600 public comment. 14 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,520 » So, do we have anyone who wants to speak? 15 00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:52,760 » Yes. >> Yes. Don, 16 00:00:55,675 --> 00:01:01,760 [clears throat] >> name is uh Don Sner. I live at 2403 17 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:06,960 State Highway 2, Clarinda, Iowa. Uh that's at the corner of Highway 2 and N 18 00:01:04,559 --> 00:01:15,360 uh Avenue, which is a landfill road as most people know about it. Um the reason 19 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:20,400 I'm here today on it uh is there's a I own the the corner there and then I 20 00:01:17,759 --> 00:01:28,000 also bought the apron that was behind me that used to be 24 or 218 N Avenue, I 21 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:34,159 think. But anyway, uh the cement part that the uh 22 00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:39,119 state put in when they redid highway 2 originally on it, uh they took out uh uh 23 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:45,759 what was there, which was I think black top or asphalt or whatever and and ran I 24 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:52,960 think 500 ft up there with uh I guess highway grade u 25 00:01:48,720 --> 00:02:02,320 uh cement on it. Um and uh over the years and so forth on it, it's uh been 26 00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:05,280 patched some and uh uh not uh maintained the way that I think it 27 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:10,800 should be on it. Uh we have a lot of traffic on that road. I I had almost put 28 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:18,959 it against J20 from uh Highway 2 to Bethesda and uh 29 00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:23,360 going up the hill. They're all semiis or garbage trucks. Going down the hill, 30 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:30,000 they're the same trucks, but they're unloaded at that time and they pop over 31 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:36,720 the hill at 50, 60, 70 mph, whatever. And uh you know, I put dust control 32 00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:41,360 down. Uh, actually the cement goes to my first property and then it goes to 33 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:46,000 gravel to my second property and then I and that that was 34 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:51,680 200 feet and then I went another 100 ft down on it to try to keep the gravel 35 00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:55,200 dust down. But that uh uh still by the time they get there and they're bringing 36 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:59,920 the dust along with them on it, we still get it. But I I'm here mainly because of 37 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:04,879 to try to get that maintained. I would hate to lose and I think the county 38 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:11,440 would hate to lose a good cement road even though it's a partial up there uh 39 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:16,480 and have to re have that go to gravel which the whole road really needs to be 40 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:20,720 paid with the traffic amount but I don't know what calls for that and I and I 41 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:25,120 realize that's a big dollar amount on it but uh [clears throat] uh we got garbage 42 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:30,159 trucks going up we've got semis holding rock because of all the stuff that 43 00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:36,400 they're going out to the landfill Now um the big dump trailers side dump trailers 44 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:40,879 are going up pickups and trailers uh at least wise till noon almost every day or 45 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:47,599 one right after another going up and down on it. Um I I've given you some uh 46 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:52,319 pictures there of the of the road that I I've taken and so forth. One of the 47 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:57,439 hazards on is that picture one through three that you've got in front of you 48 00:03:54,080 --> 00:04:03,760 there on it that uh shows a six to seven foot drop off with a uh uh that it's 49 00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:09,519 been there probably over a year and that's just from war out along uh there 50 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:13,439 on it. uh if a car, you know, semi-truck dropping off the site isn't going to do 51 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:19,359 anything, but a car drops off, I you know, it that that's to me what I would 52 00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:25,280 consider as a uh a hazard on it. Then the remaining pictures show uh some of 53 00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:30,960 the potholes on it. Uh uh I used a 4ft ruler to try to kind of give you an idea 54 00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:38,639 uh of how big the holes were and how deep they were. And then you can imagine 55 00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:43,360 a unloaded dump truck or semi coming down that and hitting those uh 56 00:04:41,653 --> 00:04:47,840 [clears throat] the just the loudness and so forth of it that goes across 57 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:52,080 there. Uh you know we have semis coming down using J brakes down Highway 2 and 58 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:56,400 it's not as loud as what it is the popping and because you know those 59 00:04:54,720 --> 00:05:01,040 trucks are heavy and there are a lot of metal and stuff to them. So, uh, anyway, 60 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:06,000 I guess what I'm here, I guess, to put it on record that that I would hate to 61 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:12,800 lose that mainly because of my property value. And if, uh, if it isn't 62 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:20,080 maintained, it's going to end up like I took I went to Red Oak on J52. 63 00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:24,240 Boy, I tell you, if I was a supervisor or somebody with the county, I'd be 64 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:30,560 ashamed to call that an account road anymore. Um, I don't know if any of you 65 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:35,120 have been on it lately on it, but uh, if anything, they should have a 25 m an 66 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:40,479 hour speed limit on it for as bad as it is. It's it's just horrible on it. And 67 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,800 and and the tough part is you pop over to Montgomery counties and they're 68 00:05:41,919 --> 00:05:48,880 they're better. Um, which I guess I don't understand, but 69 00:05:46,479 --> 00:05:54,560 then on J20, you come out of Montgomery County into Paige County and you got a 70 00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:58,240 better road on it. But uh um I would just ask somebody to take a peek at it, 71 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,564 figure out what at least wise would do to maintain it. I realize, you know, 72 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,360 it'd be nice to put an asphalt [laughter] top over it, but at least I 73 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:10,400 was getting the potholes filled so that the water just doesn't keep corroding 74 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:15,280 it. So anyway, uh that that's the only thing that I get. I presume that the 75 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:21,199 landfill is probably taxfree. Is that correct or not? Are they do do they pay 76 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400 any kind of property taxes or anything or not? 77 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,960 » I would doubt it. >> No. 78 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:31,280 » This would just be a suggestion on it. Is there any way that we could look at 79 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:36,960 it somehow that they adding on to, you 80 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:41,039 know, their their their prices up there, some type of a search charge on it in 81 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:46,000 order to maintain that road all the way up there on it. Uh um I mean that's what 82 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,160 who uses it mostly is the garbage trucks. I mean 83 00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:54,080 » you could very easily find out what the number of garbage dumps there are. 84 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,280 » I'm sure there's plenty because they they come from all over. So yeah. 85 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,680 » Yeah. So >> Brian told me at the 86 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,120 » Brian Ward >> Brian Ward at the landfill said there's 87 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:09,440 at least 40 trucks a day. >> Yeah. And that's that way and that way 88 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:14,160 because they come back on it. So anyway, uh it's just it's just I'm just looking 89 00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:21,199 at the number of traffic on there of whether or not any tax dollars could be 90 00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:26,160 put to that. Uh uh I I pay pretty good taxes along there. Not 91 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:31,280 griping. Everybody else pays taxes too on it. But the state state takes care of 92 00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:36,080 highway 2 for everything. And so the only thing I get is a little bit of snow 93 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:39,199 removal. Um you know, of course, I get fire department. I get my kids to 94 00:07:37,599 --> 00:07:42,880 school, that kind of stuff, too. So, anyway, uh wanted to make it part of the 95 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,800 record. So, what >> I know you've talked to me a couple 96 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:50,880 times and I've talked to JD. So, when JD gets his turn, we'll we'll discuss it. 97 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,240 Is that okay? >> Okay. 98 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:57,160 » Yeah. All right. >> Okay. Thanks, Don. We We appreciate it. 99 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,560 » Do we have other public comment? 100 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:12,560 I'm Jean Wagner. um two issues. One is about um the board of adjustment uh 101 00:08:09,919 --> 00:08:15,599 about the uh gun [clears throat] range. I brought up last week and you guys were 102 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:19,280 going to get some answers. So, I brought I handed a a hand out to you, the four 103 00:08:17,599 --> 00:08:22,000 of you. So, I just going to read through it a little bit to see if there's some 104 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:26,080 things that they could so as I get to it, you can [clears throat] answer them. 105 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:30,240 I I I I'll answer a couple things before you even start on the gun range. First 106 00:08:27,759 --> 00:08:36,080 of all, again, the gun range belongs to the state. again. Um, we had a meeting 107 00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:40,959 in 2019 on the gun range with the board of adjustment. I have talked to Darren 108 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:48,560 Sundererman who was our sanitarian. He has met with Scott Hire who is out um at 109 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:52,240 the prison. That that well is covered. When [clears throat] when you said it 110 00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:55,680 wasn't capped or it needed to be capped, it does have a cover over it. So, 111 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:59,200 nobody's going to fall in, no animals going to fall in or anything. And at 112 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:05,360 this point, it's in the hands of the state to take care of. It's not ours. 113 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:10,240 So, I just assume not even talk about it because it's not ours. But, um, you 114 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:17,040 know, our sanitarian has been in in contact with them about this. Um, and I 115 00:09:13,839 --> 00:09:23,440 think the the u the prison has some ideas um as to what they might want to 116 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:29,120 do with this, but it's not um an open discussion at this point. But we have 117 00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:35,120 looked at it. It's covered. And so that part I when when you kept saying capping 118 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:39,839 I was I was imagining an open well which it's not. And so 119 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,880 » we don't deal with it. >> It should be closed. 120 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:47,600 » It should be but that's not up to you. That's up to the land owner. 121 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:50,959 » That's up to the landowner to discuss. When the when you read the minutes it 122 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:56,160 says capped. It doesn't [clears throat] say closed. It says capped on that 123 00:09:53,920 --> 00:10:00,160 meeting. So it's in the hands of the prison right now. Uh, and they will they 124 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:04,959 will look into it further. So, it's it's not our issue at this point. 125 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:07,680 » Okay. And I guess did they say anything then also about the fence that doesn't 126 00:10:06,560 --> 00:10:10,480 go completely around? >> I think [clears throat] that's being 127 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,279 looked at, too. So, >> okay. 128 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:17,040 » I don't know how you can totally, you know, cover the whole thing. But that's 129 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:20,240 the other thing is it's very well posted that says no trespassing. 130 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:23,040 » Well, apparently whoever drives on it can't [clears throat] read because they 131 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,040 go around the edge and go on the property. 132 00:10:24,079 --> 00:10:28,240 » Um, [laughter] okay. I appreciate the checking into it. 133 00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:34,560 That's what I wanted to get done. Then in the solar p project issue, um I had 134 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:37,920 just a couple questions. I didn't know >> if the Mid America's here. I don't think 135 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:41,920 they're here, but I just had a couple questions for clarification. Um I was 136 00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:48,640 going over some of the information they've sent us and they talk about um a 137 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:52,079 number of um jobs when they be u when they begin the project under 138 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:57,680 construction. They talked about like a hundred jobs. And our question is how 139 00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:00,640 many of those jobs are going to be local people and how many are going to be 140 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:05,440 people they're bringing in because they're talking about eating at 141 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:08,959 restaurants um [clears throat] things like that. So if they're if they're 142 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:12,320 local people they wouldn't be eating at the restaurant. They'd be eating at 143 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:18,880 home. So my my concern is that they're making promises or pie in the sky 144 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:22,959 expectations of how many jobs it's going to create and I don't think it's going 145 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:28,079 to be as many as they're saying. Also, they're um when the project is 146 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:31,440 completed, how many full-time jobs are they offering to the community? And it's 147 00:11:30,079 --> 00:11:35,040 probably going to be a couple, one or two. So, it's not like it's going to be 148 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:39,279 a manufacturing plant that offers a whole lot of jobs. And that's kind one 149 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,920 of my concerns. It's displacing three farmers off of the land that they farm, 150 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,519 which is [clears throat] the land owner's choice, but they're talking 151 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:49,040 about the trade in of what they're bringing to the community. They're also 152 00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:53,200 you have to look at what's taking away from the community. Um, my other 153 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:57,839 question was how many of those panels are Chinese solar panels and how many 154 00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:03,440 are made with Chinese parts? You know, we we like to promote things that are 155 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:08,720 USA. Are the solar panels all going to come from China in this project? I don't 156 00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:12,800 know that the data doesn't say. And then um we wanted to ask a question about who 157 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:18,480 is going to determine [clears throat] how much uncontrolled water we have to 158 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:23,200 take onto our flat land. Um, the letter that Met America sent to the Iowa 159 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:27,200 Utilities Commission, the one lady, and I can I keep forgetting to look up her 160 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:30,800 name, she was indicating she did she didn't think there was going to be any 161 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:36,639 water coming on our land. We're contending that there will. So, what is 162 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:40,560 who would be the determining person that says yes, there's going to be a problem 163 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,920 or no, there isn't. And and our concern is, okay, if they're saying there's no 164 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,839 issue and we feel like there's going to be an issue and we take action on our 165 00:12:45,839 --> 00:12:53,120 side of the property, is that going to be a a blowback on us? Because if they 166 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:56,079 say there's no water problem and we think there is and we and we put 167 00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:59,279 something on our land to protect our land or we going to be in trouble 168 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:02,320 because we we put something on our property. It's like they're having 169 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,600 they're saying on their land they can do whatever they want when they buy it and 170 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,959 then and then they turn around and say, "Well, you can't do something on your 171 00:13:06,959 --> 00:13:13,440 land." And that's what we want to know who is going to be determining. So who 172 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:18,639 do we go to to find out or get that a get that answer or determination? Um the 173 00:13:16,079 --> 00:13:22,000 the other the last point would be they're saying right now there's no 174 00:13:20,079 --> 00:13:24,480 issue with groundwater or with the runoff water, [clears throat] but 175 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,000 they're not saying what's going to happen during construction or 176 00:13:26,079 --> 00:13:32,209 afterwards. And that's our concern is that just like with the gun range and 177 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,639 these other issues we brought up, they [clears throat] always make all these 178 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:38,880 promises and say, "Oh, there's no issue here. There's no problem here." then 179 00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:43,839 they get the okay and then they they can take seven years to solve a problem. So 180 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:49,920 that's my issue is who if we're if we're issuing the permission to build the 181 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:53,040 solar panel farm or project, who is going to maintain that they are 182 00:13:51,279 --> 00:13:58,079 following the guidelines that they've agreed to because with the solar with 183 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,839 the gun range, nobody has cared, nobody has bothered to check. And that's my 184 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,519 point is is that going to be again the same problem we've had three or four 185 00:14:03,519 --> 00:14:09,040 other times with with these big projects. they make all kinds of 186 00:14:07,199 --> 00:14:13,040 promises and then when it comes down to the people having to live next to it and 187 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:15,440 deal with it, well, we didn't know we didn't have anything to do with that. 188 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:19,680 So, that's [clears throat] our our concern and I would like an answer, you 189 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:23,920 know, at some point about who has that final say so that we can be be 190 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:28,320 understanding what what our next step is if we have to take one. So, thank you. 191 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:34,199 » Thanks, Jane. >> Are there other public comments? Yeah. 192 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,199 » You want to get up, Jim? 193 00:14:40,639 --> 00:14:46,399 Uh, >> want to state your name? 194 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:50,079 » Jim Moreno, current Iowa. I live at 2264 P Avenue. 195 00:14:48,845 --> 00:14:57,360 [clears throat] I came home this morning at about 11:30 and I met a county truck 196 00:14:53,839 --> 00:15:02,959 that was driving by spraying. We had a southwest wind. I checked with KMA and 197 00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:09,000 they said it was 11 mph. At 11 miles an hour, you can spray in Iowa under their 198 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,000 spray guidelines. 199 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:17,600 Apparently, he was spraying on the west side of the road. Shortly after that, he 200 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:23,279 came back by, but when I got out of my vehicle at home, I could hardly breathe 201 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:28,880 with the air from the chemicals. I walked into my house and it had filled 202 00:15:26,079 --> 00:15:32,240 up because we had the windows open. I just spent the last two and a half 203 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:38,880 hours trying to get that smell out of the inside of my house. My throat's 204 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:43,600 sore. We have fruit trees. I had grape vines. I don't know if I still do or 205 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:49,040 not, but I don't know what was sprayed across the road. 206 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:52,560 I don't know if this guy even has spray training. I don't know if he's certified 207 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:56,079 to spray, but 208 00:15:54,079 --> 00:15:59,759 I called county engineers office and no one had time to call me back. 209 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,120 Okay. >> And this has not been the first time 210 00:16:03,199 --> 00:16:10,399 I've went to the engineer's office about an issue. 211 00:16:08,079 --> 00:16:17,680 Another issue I have is with the north side of my property is a little null 212 00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:23,279 and driveway on the other side. It's quite short from that null. 213 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:29,519 I've asked for when I first moved out there, there was a drive ahead sign and 214 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:34,560 we had trees and everything else. Well, they went through they cleaned that 215 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:39,600 ditch out which was a good thing. Uh, but they took the sign. It never 216 00:16:37,279 --> 00:16:45,279 came back. John and Matt Brockman both have signs. 217 00:16:42,079 --> 00:16:51,839 John's sign for his, you can see it 3/4 of a mile away. 218 00:16:47,839 --> 00:16:54,959 and his sign empties out onto a dirt road. George Crawford has a sign. He's 219 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,720 got a short drive. >> And what does the sign say? 220 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,639 » Pardon? >> What does the sign say? 221 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:05,039 » Uh driveway head or blank driveway. >> Okay. 222 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:10,360 » So, I just want to know why I'm being discriminated against. 223 00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:10,360 » Okay. 224 00:17:10,959 --> 00:17:18,640 So, I know you don't have the answers today, but I figured this was the place 225 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:20,000 to go to ask. >> Okay. 226 00:17:19,439 --> 00:17:26,679 » Thank you. >> Thanks, Jim. 227 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,679 » Any other public comment? 228 00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:34,760 » Okay, we will move on to our county engineer. 229 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:53,760 Good afternoon, JD King, Paige County. It's a hot day in Paige County, 230 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:57,120 but we're blessed with air conditioner up here, 231 00:17:55,919 --> 00:18:00,360 and [clears throat] hopefully it doesn't get hotter. 232 00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:05,720 The engineers update went out Monday. 233 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:15,840 We're have blades out of the districts. Had three blades out on 230th reshaping 234 00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:20,760 a section there west of where we had done some training 235 00:18:21,679 --> 00:18:30,559 and had a roller and a water truck. So yeah, like I said, it was an 236 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:35,760 extension of the training. The place where we did the training with the motor 237 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:40,160 graders, we extended that to the west. Another road section. 238 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:44,960 We're hauling rock with three trucks, two belly dumps in a tandem yesterday 239 00:18:42,799 --> 00:18:48,320 and today.

Uh I I 264 00:20:57,039 --> 00:21:05,600 do believe Mr. Moranville spoke with somebody 265 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:10,400 in the engineer's office today. We didn't call him back, but he talked to 266 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:15,520 somebody today. >> Do we ever give notice to neighbors or 267 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:19,679 people along the roads where we're going to be spraying? 268 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:26,159 » No. I mean, we we he sprays in areas, 269 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:32,960 but we don't contact people before we spray.

Yeah. 276 00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:02,080 It's unfortunate. >> So, you look a little bit more into 277 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:06,919 that. >> Yeah. 278 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,919 » Okay.

Well, we're in punch list, so [laughter] 353 00:28:35,360 --> 00:28:44,720 all the major construction is done. Um, we've had the engineers, architects in 354 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:53,600 for the first round of punch list items. they are actively putting those um 355 00:28:49,919 --> 00:28:59,200 we put them in into the uh listing uh to each contractor and they're actively 356 00:28:55,919 --> 00:29:06,480 getting them done. Um [clears throat] I would say that we're probably 50% 357 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:10,559 complete on the punch list items. Um we're working through some issues on 358 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:16,559 data. We've got some couple of things that or were um kind of popped up on us 359 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:20,559 as far as some intercoms and getting some wire pulled where it needed to be, 360 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:24,720 but nothing major. Um like I said, all major construction is over. So, 361 00:29:23,935 --> 00:29:29,440 [clears throat] we've had final cleaners in there a 362 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:33,919 couple times. Um we'll have them in there one more time once everybody gets 363 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:40,480 out of the building. As of right now, as it stands, um the plumbing crew is 364 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:46,720 expected to be out by Friday. Um their trailer left today. Um HVAC, I 365 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:52,080 think, is going to be right behind them the middle of next week. Electrical is 366 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:57,840 pushing to get out by Friday. Um so data will still be working, 367 00:29:55,375 --> 00:30:02,320 [clears throat] I think September 8th, which is Monday. 368 00:29:59,679 --> 00:30:04,399 um their engineers come in Tuesday. Oh, >> was it Tuesday? 369 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:09,200 » Tuesday. >> Was hoping it was Monday, but [laughter] 370 00:30:07,820 --> 00:30:13,600 [clears throat] >> um they'll be in on the 8th and they'll 371 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:19,840 start doing testing of the jail cells, the locks, um intercom systems, 372 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:27,039 speakers, all that. And then once we get that, I'm probably going to call in next 373 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:31,520 week for the um inspection, the total fire alarm inspection from the fire 374 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:37,360 marshall's office. And then um 375 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:42,559 once we get that done, I think Tony will then call for the DOC inspection. 376 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:46,480 um we have commissioning to go through yet. So, that could be a little bit of a 377 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:51,520 lengthy process and I don't think we'll call DOC until we get um till we get all 378 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:56,640 the commissioning done, which is basically 379 00:30:53,919 --> 00:31:04,799 um all your HVAC systems, your security systems, um door controls, um anything 380 00:31:01,679 --> 00:31:10,159 that's electronic in the building, um the lighting controls, uh the BAS 381 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:14,240 system, building automation system, that all gets commissioned by a separate 382 00:31:12,159 --> 00:31:19,840 firm. um and make sure that it was done according to specifications 383 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:24,159 uh listed in the plans. Um then we'll call for the DOC inspection. But during 384 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:28,960 that time, uh also this county staff will start 385 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:33,679 going through training and that'll be fairly extensive. I mean this is new 386 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:37,120 building form, new way of operating um with a lot of electronics. So, we want 387 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:42,000 to make sure that they have a very good understanding 388 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:46,960 uh before we put uh inmates or offenders into that building. 389 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:51,440 Um I think this will probably be my last update for you until we turn 390 00:31:50,020 --> 00:31:56,799 [clears throat] the keys over and I imagine then I'll say this. Sid probably 391 00:31:54,480 --> 00:32:00,480 want to will probably shoot me, but I'll say I'll say Sid will probably come back 392 00:31:58,399 --> 00:32:03,519 in and give you one last update with the financials. 393 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,600 Okay.

And it's it's been amazing to watch how it's come 396 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:24,880 from a blank slate to to the 397 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:29,679 nice interior that we have now. Nice, clean, bright 398 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:31,679 » interior that the inmates should really appreciate. 399 00:32:30,612 --> 00:32:34,640 » [laughter] >> Yeah, that's right. 400 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:38,000 » I know the employees will appreciate it.

So, thank you, Chris. 404 00:32:48,159 --> 00:32:55,120 » Yep. And, uh, I I imagine we've been in conversations with the architect and the 405 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:59,440 engineers and they want to do one final walk through. I've got to kind of talk 406 00:32:57,279 --> 00:33:03,840 to them within the next couple weeks. They want to do just one more just the 407 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:07,360 detailing, you know, making sure all the details, everything is covered.

Yep. And it's going to be it's going to be awesome. It's going to be 412 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:25,760 safer facility for them to work out of and and and even for the offenders, 413 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,600 it'll be a safer facility that they can. >> You wouldn't want to buy the old jail, 414 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:32,240 would you? >> I'm I'm out on that.

This parcel was acquired as a nuisance 422 00:34:06,399 --> 00:34:13,919 property and the trailer home was demolished for the community. So, that 423 00:34:10,879 --> 00:34:17,480 sounds like a a good thing. So, I need a motion on that. 424 00:34:18,639 --> 00:34:23,240 » Make [clears throat] a motion pass resolution 40-2026. 425 00:34:23,359 --> 00:34:27,520 Second.

Um, last year we had also asked 444 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:08,000 for an abatement for this property. Uh, last year it was only one tax bill. This 445 00:36:05,839 --> 00:36:12,079 year it's 24 because it has been subdivided at this point. Last 446 00:36:10,694 --> 00:36:16,640 [clears throat] year you didn't allow it because we got farm rental income off of 447 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:20,880 it. So, I understand that that is what how the law reads on that. Um, I can 448 00:36:19,119 --> 00:36:25,839 tell you this year we have had no farm rental income on it. Everything has been 449 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:30,160 expensed so far. Um, the project is doing wonderful. Uh, the infrastructure 450 00:36:28,079 --> 00:36:36,400 is actually a little ahead of schedule right now. Um, they're almost completed 451 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:39,520 with the turning lanes on on the bypass. So, it's going along very nicely.

It'll 455 00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:59,359 definitely be on the tax rules before we know it. 456 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:04,640 » Sounds like an exciting um project down there across from the the new park and 457 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:10,000 everything.
