1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,799
Do we start?
>> Yep. Just did it.

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:08,720
» Okay. [clears throat] I'd like to call
the meeting to order and begin with the

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:13,759
pledge of allegiance.
>> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:20,080
United States of America and to the
republic for which it stands, one nation

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:24,320
under God, indivisible, with liberty and
justice for all.

6
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:28,560
Uh tonight we're having a bit of a
problem with our video recording and

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:34,880
Chris has taken a regular audio
recording on her phone which we'll

8
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:41,680
upload and if it comes up we will start
live streaming when that occurs. Um

9
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:49,360
first item we have is approval of the
agenda as presented. Uh, I need to take

10
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:55,480
item H and change that into uh the
transfer of special projects money. Um,

11
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:05,199
the other area I think that's it.
Is there any other changes or additions?

12
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:09,760
» No.
>> Hearing none, I'd entertain a motion to

13
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,439
approve the agenda as modified.
>> I make a motion.

14
00:01:11,439 --> 00:01:16,400
» I'll second it. All those in favor? Hi.
>> Hi.

15
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,400
» Public comment starts out with Cindy
Taylor.

16
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:30,479
» I have three items here.
Um, first one I want to ask the

17
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:36,560
commissioners about the personnel
policies on using personal vehicles for

18
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:40,159
conferences. Is that allowed?
>> I think a lot of them drive their own

19
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:44,720
personal vehicles and then turn their
mileage in.

20
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:50,799
» Okay. So that's okay to do that.
Uh the other one is um that's why

21
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:55,439
Warren's here. Eagle Eagle's Bluff. Uh
we're having a little problem with

22
00:01:53,040 --> 00:02:01,680
overtime at Eagle Eagle's Bluff getting
it open and shut at certain times. It

23
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:10,160
was suggested to leave it open 24/7,
which given the nature of that place

24
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:17,040
would be hard to do. um utilities. The
utilities falls under the parks board's

25
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:24,400
budget. Um not just the counties. If
that could be separated would help some.

26
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:27,760
Um it has no cameras. Um the lighting
would have I don't know if it can be

27
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:31,520
turned on
>> to come on.

28
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:35,760
» The lighting is a sensor that comes on
and off

29
00:02:34,239 --> 00:02:40,400
» at Eagles Bluff.
>> Yes. I think it's on a sensor. It's not

30
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:45,840
a a switch. So,
>> but the bathrooms would be left open

31
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:51,519
24/7, which would cause a problem with
the glass house. Number one, I get it

32
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:57,959
with um we can't beat our director right
now, although we're losing very

33
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,959
meticulous. Um

34
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:07,760
is it I don't think it's an option at
this time to leave it open 247. The B

35
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:14,080
board approved at our last meeting to
allow them to do what they had suggested

36
00:03:10,319 --> 00:03:21,040
to open it when they come to work, close
it when they leave. So 8 to 3 8:00 a.m.

37
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:27,440
to 3:00 p.m. closed on the weekends. I
don't like it. Um it was a temporary

38
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:34,720
fix.
I'm looking into a uh automatic gate

39
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:40,239
where we can have that gate open say
7:00 a.m. automatically close at 700

40
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:46,159
p.m. We're still going to run into the
bathrooms um issue, but I think we can

41
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:51,280
put lights on,
but that I think it all can be fixed. A

42
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:55,440
a lock on the door at a certain time
just same as a gate. I I think that can

43
00:03:53,519 --> 00:04:01,599
be fixed, but that's what we're looking
into. I do not have a quote yet. Um I've

44
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:06,239
been trying to get that, but I'm asking
just for you guys to think about that,

45
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:11,760
look into that because I'd really like
that to happen by the first of the year.

46
00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:18,079
Um that we don't have this closed down.
Winter R is going to be easier uh later

47
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:24,479
on. It's not going to be so easy. Um,
and we we really that gate I think would

48
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:30,240
solve a lot of all the issues and kind
of go across the line with everybody uh

49
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:35,120
making everybody happy. That's the one
thing. Or did you have anything?

50
00:04:32,479 --> 00:04:39,919
» Well, the uh as far as like trying to
leave it open 24/7.

51
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:45,040
Several years ago they tried that back
whenever count I think count had four or

52
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:49,840
five officers. sheriff between the
sheriff's department and counting police

53
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:55,120
department. They helped out by locking
the gate at night. But the problem we've

54
00:04:52,880 --> 00:05:01,120
run into now, counting I think's only
got two and maybe one part-time officer

55
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:06,960
and most time our county units are
covering counting at nighttime. So it'd

56
00:05:04,479 --> 00:05:11,600
be basically put on the burden of the
sheriff's department if they're not busy

57
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:16,560
with stuff out in the county. And I
don't feel it's the sheriff's

58
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:20,160
department's place to be
locking that gate up every night and

59
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:27,120
going up checking to see if anybody's up
there. Uh, with the gate, the gate would

60
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:31,360
work except I've got one thing that I
don't like about

61
00:05:29,039 --> 00:05:36,720
you have to have a sensor of some kind
on the inside of the gate in case

62
00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:39,840
somebody doesn't get out of there in
time, the gate shuts. They're going to

63
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:44,400
have to have a way to get their vehicle
out. And it won't take long if we put a

64
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,600
sensor up that people wanting to go up
there and party is going to realize all

65
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:50,800
they have to do is walk in there, trip
the sensor, the gates going to open up,

66
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:55,520
they can drive up there, the gates going
to close, and they're up there for the

67
00:05:53,520 --> 00:06:01,680
night partying and nobody will know
there's anything going on.

68
00:05:58,479 --> 00:06:06,080
I don't know really what the
alternative is.

69
00:06:03,039 --> 00:06:09,520
» My personal opinion is that it's a
public park. It should be open 24 hours,

70
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,160
seven days a week.
>> Do we have money to take care of the

71
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,639
damages? But
>> I think we've talked about before um I I

72
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:21,360
spoke with the sheriff and he said, you
know, to as you know, whenever we decide

73
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:25,520
to first open it, he'd be more than
happy to increase patrol for the area

74
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:30,080
and he could talk to the Tel City Police
and to increase the patrol for the area.

75
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:35,360
Also, yes, we're going to have a chance
of vandalism, but what park doesn't? I I

76
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:40,560
mean we can't go by the past history and
hopefully it wouldn't happen but

77
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:43,280
» I don't as a taxpayer tell though I
don't think Tel say police officer

78
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:48,880
should be going out there
>> as a taxpayer for the county I would

79
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:53,600
like to go at 9:00 and maybe
>> meet with my friends and I mean what if

80
00:06:51,039 --> 00:06:56,720
you have a shared parental agreement and
you need a public place to meet the

81
00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:00,240
spouse to make sure
>> if the county could guarantee that

82
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:03,840
there'd be funding available to cover
damages I wouldn't have a problem with

83
00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:07,120
it staying open.
>> That, like I said, that's just my

84
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:10,000
opinion. I know how
>> I'd like to see it open.

85
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:15,840
» I know how the damages were before up
there. I mean, and I understand cuz my

86
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:23,280
wife feels like you do, it should be
open, but at the same time with the

87
00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:28,080
budget cuts and stuff for next year,
I'm just my concern is that we're going

88
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:32,560
to get stuff tore up and not able to re
repair it. you know, the shelter house,

89
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:41,199
the bathroom
like bathrooms in the observation areas

90
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:47,280
out glass to overlook the dam. U I just
know what I just I know what's going to

91
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:54,400
happen when we leave it open 24/7
because I've seen it in the 70s and 80s.

92
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:57,440
» Okay. So my suggestion would be they're
building a tower right next to you for

93
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,520
cell service
>> and it has improved.

94
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:05,360
» You cannot have a trigger on the inside
that just triggers it at will. So they

95
00:08:03,919 --> 00:08:08,879
can open the gate up. But you can have
it. I've been into parking garages

96
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:12,400
before and they don't function properly.
I push a button, a camera comes on,

97
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:16,479
they've got a picture of me and I tell
them what my problem is and they can

98
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:22,160
open the gate. So as long as we have
connectivity, we can do that. We also

99
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:26,560
can put cameras up there that trigger as
people there's any motion or whatever's

100
00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:31,039
going on up there. So, that's another
alternative. And the locks on the

101
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:34,240
restrooms, if if it's decided a certain
time to close them, you can

102
00:08:32,719 --> 00:08:39,599
automatically lock them. If you've ever
went to an Airbnb and you try to stay

103
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:42,399
over, you're out. I mean, uh there's
systems out there and they're not overly

104
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:47,120
expensive.
>> And I think it can meet the security

105
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,560
issue and also open because it is a
public park. So

106
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,440
» the uh
>> that's what I would suggest looking into

107
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:55,040
to see what the costs are associated
with

108
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:59,200
» the camera as far as like a button
camera come on. Would that be monitored

109
00:08:57,680 --> 00:09:03,279
by the police department?
>> Well, we we'll get through that. If the

110
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:08,399
police department I I think probably uh
the police you have a 24hour

111
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:12,320
service there and and if there's an
occasion that someone would get locked

112
00:09:10,399 --> 00:09:16,800
into that, I don't think they'd mind
saying, "Okay, we'll open the gate." I

113
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:21,680
just can't I just can't envision that.
if you put proper signage up that that

114
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,360
would be something that continually
happens.

115
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,240
» Well, I and I I've said it might happen
one time, but they're going to get their

116
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:31,760
car out of there if it has to sit there
till 7:00 a.m. the next morning for them

117
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:38,640
to come and get it.
>> Period. I mean, if there's signage

118
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:43,680
clearly stating this gate will close at
7 8 9 I don't care what time, but

119
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:46,880
» PM, your car needs to be out of there.
If it's not,

120
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,720
» you walk down the hill, you call
somebody, come and get you.

121
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:52,880
» They'll figure it out.
>> Yeah, they'll figure that's the gate

122
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,399
would be the ideal situation,
>> right?

123
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:58,720
» That way, you know,
>> and you have to have some way in case

124
00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:02,320
somebody has parked up there unknowingly
or isn't from the area so you can

125
00:10:00,959 --> 00:10:06,959
accommodate them. But I don't think
it'll become a real burden. If it is,

126
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:11,519
you revisit the issue. But I think that
locks and lights and cameras and things

127
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:16,000
are are a solution. And I don't think
it's would be overly as long as we have

128
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:22,399
connectivity up there. Um
>> well I do kind of want to ask that I

129
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:32,760
know um the parks board is the only one
that I think has their own

130
00:10:25,839 --> 00:10:32,760
um monies brought uh come from the um

131
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:38,320
October November thingy where they
>> talking about

132
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:44,880
» huh um
>> budget where they get budgeted so much

133
00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:48,160
for utilities. I know the
is it the south annex? Where's he at?

134
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,320
East.
>> He's at the

135
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,839
» All of the utilities are kept separate
by building.

136
00:10:50,959 --> 00:10:56,560
» Yeah.
>> Yes. But they're all paid by the county.

137
00:10:54,640 --> 00:11:01,200
» Well, yours is paid by the county, too,
because it's out in general.

138
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:06,399
» Correct. But the parks are not. [cough]
The actual parks that are owned by the

139
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:10,320
county are paid
>> by the parks board in our budget. Not

140
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:13,920
saying the county doesn't pay it.
>> That's out of the general fund.

141
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:18,720
Everybody's is like that. Theirs is the
county buildings are under the

142
00:11:15,839 --> 00:11:23,279
commissioners, the south annex, the
north annex, and the courthouse.

143
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,880
» She's talking about the parks.
>> I'm talking about the parks

144
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:32,720
» at Rome and those places cuz there's
lights and stuff that there's meters out

145
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:35,760
there that it's charged to Greg for at
the parks department.

146
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:40,480
» I don't understand the issue.
>> I think what there's the confusion. The

147
00:11:38,399 --> 00:11:45,120
buildings are under the commissioner's
budget. what they're saying the parks

148
00:11:42,079 --> 00:11:48,880
are under their budget
>> but it's all out of the general fund.

149
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:52,320
It's just a so it's basically the same
pot

150
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,040
» if we switch if we switched that over
and made it a commissioner expense

151
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:59,360
» separate
>> then we just take it out of your budget.

152
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:02,800
So if you're not budgeted sufficiently
for the utilities that's an issue for

153
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:05,760
the council.
>> Uh so uh I mean

154
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:10,000
» do you understand it's really not any
different. It's a different location.

155
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:15,200
» I get I get it. The EMA keeps their the
EMA keeps their um theirs in their

156
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:20,000
separate lo. It's by a location.
Everything's paid out of general. The

157
00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:23,839
commissioners control all county
buildings. So that's why they are under

158
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:28,160
the buildings are under the
commissioners and the parks. It's just

159
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:32,000
it's all coming out of general. It's got
the location number. So it's it's really

160
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:34,880
nine different. And then I know that you
guys were talking

161
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:38,480
» line item. Is it under a line item for
the parks department

162
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:42,079
» in the general? Yeah. which is the
general fund. So

163
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,560
» they he's run out he's run short I think
this year on it or

164
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,200
» it would be no different than having to
come to the it actually

165
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:52,079
» to try and get money out of the council.
>> It's no it's not any different.

166
00:12:48,959 --> 00:12:55,440
» All right. I got off on that. Sorry. Um
but the gate is something I am looking

167
00:12:54,079 --> 00:12:57,279
into. Just want to
>> just get some numbers and we'll look at

168
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:04,800
it.
>> Yeah. Um hopefully to come out of that

169
00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:10,639
or out of your budget somewhere. Um but
on the personal vehicles the um camera

170
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:16,079
here is another comment I wanted to
make. You had and I don't remember what

171
00:13:14,079 --> 00:13:19,839
it was. Curt bird over
>> Oh, eagle.

172
00:13:17,279 --> 00:13:23,360
» Yes. Um we couldn't see the screen at
home.

173
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:26,560
» Um if there's no way to turn the camera
to see that screen

174
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:29,519
» or put it on this one
>> because

175
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:34,240
» that was so disappointing that at at
home we couldn't see that. If you will

176
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:36,639
look online, they have several YouTube
videos. Eagle View does

177
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:41,680
» with all that on it.
>> It has it just as an example of how that

178
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:47,040
that software system works. It's
>> YouTube cameras are set here

179
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,680
» so I can't do anything.
>> And tonight no one's watching.

180
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:53,360
» Yeah.
>> I don't know what that is but

181
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:57,680
» um and my last thing
>> okay

182
00:13:53,920 --> 00:14:05,839
» is on um with this parks board. There
was a little hoo-ha last month um with

183
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:11,760
our parks director, misunderstanding or
not, but I think there needs to be a

184
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:17,279
policy in place where
when a personnel policy is talked about

185
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:26,800
at personnel. I have no idea what those
are. um that I would assume it would be

186
00:14:21,839 --> 00:14:32,000
HR contacting in writing um the director
or department head

187
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:38,560
um in order to
clarify some things. Um this had to do

188
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:46,560
with the overtime. Um it it was done
wrong. Um Greg took the fall for it and

189
00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:51,440
he should not have. Um,
whatever happened there happened, but I

190
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:57,440
did want to make a comment on that. That
that needs to be handled totally

191
00:14:53,199 --> 00:15:01,600
different and in writing for
the board to see.

192
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,839
» I don't know anything about that either.
>> So, you've caught us off guard on that

193
00:15:03,519 --> 00:15:07,040
one.
>> Okay. I can send you the emails.

194
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:10,320
» Okay. Okay. If you would, you know.
>> Okay. Thank you. Thank you.

195
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:13,440
» Okay. I'm here for another reason, too.
>> Okay.

196
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:19,519
Um,
Greg, since he was doing maintenance,

197
00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:28,240
checked on trying to get us another fan
hooked up in the cooler area of the

198
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:35,760
corner's office to try to remove some of
the odors at times.

199
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:42,639
And last week, we had a situation where
it got pretty nasty. Uh, we had every

200
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:49,839
fan on in that whole building trying to
get rid of the odor. We finally we

201
00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:56,240
finally did. But u
Greg checked on a a price of fans from I

202
00:15:53,519 --> 00:16:01,040
think Valley Supply or one of them and
it was a little bit high. But I'd like

203
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:08,800
for him to try to come up with a maybe a
cheaper fan cuz we got two u areas in

204
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:13,680
the cooler area that they used to be uh
duck work that went outside. If we could

205
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:21,040
put a fan in one of those, try to help
draw that odor out, it would help a

206
00:16:16,959 --> 00:16:27,759
bunch. Now, Pam was out there after the
autopsy, and it had a lot of it had

207
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:32,240
left, but at the time when the autopsy
was going on, [snorts]

208
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:37,120
uh, Mr. Ramsey from the high school was
out in front of the health department,

209
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:41,680
he was out there gagging. It was so bad.
And um

210
00:16:38,639 --> 00:16:46,000
» so but let me let me envision this here.
Do you have seals on your door? Your

211
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,959
metal door.
>> Yes. But uh

212
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:52,480
» Okay. And then you got an overhead door
in the back, right?

213
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:57,680
» No, we have double doors in the back.
>> Okay. But a a bigger opening. And

214
00:16:55,120 --> 00:17:03,440
» we had the big we had two big exhaust
fans going plus the over with plus the

215
00:17:01,199 --> 00:17:07,039
fans in the what I call common area
where all the vehicles are parked. also

216
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:10,640
the fan going.
>> Well, but what you want to do is take

217
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:13,039
all of your air and make positive
pressure, taking the air out.

218
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:16,640
» We was pushing
>> and sucking air from inside of the

219
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:21,439
building and pushing it out. And what
you don't want to do is have a return

220
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:25,280
air in your room that allows the the the
return to be pulled out of your room

221
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:28,960
because then it just pulls it into the
HVAC system and circulates through the

222
00:17:27,199 --> 00:17:31,440
whole building. You shouldn't have had
that much with a set of double doors and

223
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:35,840
that. I mean,
>> we had everything. I I get it, but I

224
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:40,080
mean uh um
>> there's ways to mitigate that.

225
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:44,720
» We had the two big exhaust fans that's
portable that Steve's got out there. We

226
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:49,360
had one of them sitting
inside the building blowing through my

227
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:54,640
office, the other one outside the double
doors out back underneath the canopy

228
00:17:51,919 --> 00:18:00,080
pulling through to trying to pull the
smell out. But it just went uh through

229
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:06,880
the whole building just and it didn't
take long either. But like I said, Greg

230
00:18:03,039 --> 00:18:12,400
looked at uh trying to find a price and
the one that he had was pretty expensive

231
00:18:09,919 --> 00:18:16,799
and I told him that was too that's to me
it was too much money. But I like for

232
00:18:14,559 --> 00:18:23,679
him to try to go ahead before he leaves
try to get another fan to put in the uh

233
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:26,559
cooler room to pull some of that air.
>> But cool your cooler room doesn't smell,

234
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:32,480
does it?
>> It does when you have a decomposed body

235
00:18:29,120 --> 00:18:37,200
in there. the whole build basically the
whole building does and uh

236
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:40,000
» I think you need to control so that air
doesn't get into the rest of the

237
00:18:39,039 --> 00:18:44,960
building in some
>> there's I don't know how how a person

238
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:47,120
would do it cuz um if
>> it's hard because the building is

239
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:50,160
combined
>> yeah it is I mean and

240
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:53,520
» I mean if you were separate it'd be a
lot different but you're not

241
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:59,039
» when you was out there it had dissipated
a whole bunch I mean but there for a

242
00:18:55,919 --> 00:19:05,360
while the nurses called
>> me and said, "Can you do anything about

243
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:09,600
the about the smell, the odor?" And we
did. We had everything.

244
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:14,640
We had everything going possible, but it
was still And I don't know if one more

245
00:19:12,559 --> 00:19:19,760
fan would work, but it it's bound to
help some. But like I said, we had every

246
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:27,440
fan and going in that whole building,
the overhead in the common area, the

247
00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:30,799
that uh the old kitchen, we had the fan
going in the kitchen. We had

248
00:19:29,039 --> 00:19:34,320
» I I got a feeling you were doing more
damage by running all that you're

249
00:19:32,799 --> 00:19:36,559
recirculating that air through the
building.

250
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:41,200
» Well, I don't know where you I mean, if
you push it out. We was pushing it out.

251
00:19:39,039 --> 00:19:43,200
But it's still
uh

252
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,840
» you got to create a negative pressure
inside of your room.

253
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:49,280
» You'd have to seal the whole building up
and then I don't know how you're going

254
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:52,160
to seal that whole building up. Have
negative pressure to

255
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:56,320
» you have to seal yours up. Yours is
where the yours is where the smell is.

256
00:19:54,799 --> 00:20:00,080
Sealing the rest of the building up is
not the answer. it's yours and making

257
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:05,360
sure that your building then
>> but pushing it outside and it's sucking

258
00:20:02,799 --> 00:20:09,039
back in anytime those big overhead doors
are open it right back in.

259
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:12,480
» So were they open?
>> No, they was closed.

260
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:17,120
» So it didn't come in that way. So some
other way it got in there. It's just uh

261
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:24,080
you need to come out sometime when
nurses call you because they uh this is

262
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:30,400
not the first time and usually it's
three four times a year that we have a

263
00:20:25,919 --> 00:20:37,440
situation this bad. But this one uh last
week was probably the worst that I have

264
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:40,159
smelt in eight years out there. It was
and

265
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:44,159
» you can have him explore some options if
he can come up with something.

266
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:48,559
» Pricing from another vendor also.
>> I mean, anything would help just cuz if

267
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:55,520
we can get some of that smell out before
we even start the autopsy would help. Uh

268
00:20:52,400 --> 00:21:00,559
but our cooler area, the whole the
cooler even yet today you walk in the

269
00:20:57,919 --> 00:21:04,799
cooler, you still got the lingering odor
even in the cooler yet today because it

270
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:09,400
was so bad. But I'll get with Greg
again. Thank you.

271
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,400
» Thanks,

272
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,799
» Adam Meyer.

273
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:29,120
Hello. I'm an employee for the highway
department and uh I just wanted to make

274
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:32,720
some comments on the proposed change the
handbook.

275
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:38,799
Uh I myself I would like to see the
Monday through Friday or Monday through

276
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:45,679
Thursday 40hour week stay the same.
Um cuz uh when I took this job

277
00:21:43,679 --> 00:21:52,960
uh took a pretty good pay cut to come
here and the most attractive thing about

278
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:58,480
this job was the uh 410s Monday through
Thursday work week

279
00:21:55,679 --> 00:22:04,159
and uh you know the the insurance is
expensive average. I actually declined

280
00:22:01,360 --> 00:22:11,200
it. Uh
the pay is uh below average for a CDL

281
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:15,400
professional driver. And I think if you
take the uh Monday through Thursday

282
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:22,240
work week away, uh there's really not
many things that are left about this job

283
00:22:19,919 --> 00:22:28,400
that are attractive to somebody wanting
to come in, guys wanting to stay.

284
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:35,039
Um
uh from what I understand uh we have

285
00:22:32,159 --> 00:22:40,480
four open positions right now, soon to
be five here in a couple weeks.

286
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:47,360
Nobody's applying for the job. There's
not a lot attractive about the job.

287
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:51,200
And uh that's I just want to make those
comments before you vote on it.

288
00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:57,520
» Yeah. I think there's one thing that
everybody keeps misunderstanding

289
00:22:54,159 --> 00:23:04,080
is that I think the proposal was not
getting rid of the 10-hour work days. It

290
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:09,120
was simply 410.
A portion would work from Monday through

291
00:23:06,159 --> 00:23:14,480
Thursday. Another group would work
Tuesday through Friday. So, everybody's

292
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:19,840
still working four 10-hour days. You're
just getting coverage on that Friday.

293
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:24,559
» Yeah. So, I mean, and at some point, I
mean, that can be rotating, however that

294
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:30,799
works out. I think that was offered to
Steve if he can come up with a plan. Um,

295
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:35,440
you know, he may he may want to swing
his shift in some way where you don't

296
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:39,600
work on Friday and you don't work on
Monday and then all of a sudden you get

297
00:23:37,039 --> 00:23:43,440
four days for farming, you know, and
that might work out better. And then,

298
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,679
however he would set it up, I don't
think anybody put any restrictions on

299
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:51,600
him. It's just simply to get coverage
for Friday. And I think that was the

300
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:54,960
intent. It wasn't necessarily going to
58.

301
00:23:53,039 --> 00:23:59,520
» Well, I myself would like to see it stay
the same. And pretty sure I can speak

302
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:03,440
for most of the guys, probably all the
guys like it stay the same.

303
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:08,960
» Okay.
>> Thank you.

304
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:16,960

» I make a motion.
>> I'll second it. All those in favor.

325
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:56,480
» The next item is the one that I
modified. Uh we went through the

326
00:25:54,640 --> 00:26:01,440
process. We have an edit plan that
determines where the money goes. It

327
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:09,520
split into about five or six different
categories and we had some money in a

328
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:17,600
general pot that didn't get distributed
for some of 23 24 and 25. And in order

329
00:26:15,120 --> 00:26:23,400
to balance it out and get all of the
other funds, we came up short

330
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,400
$76,872.38.

331
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:34,880
The only thing we have flexibility with
is our special projects fund. So I'm

332
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:40,559
suggesting that we pull it out of that
with the stipulation the overpayment

333
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:46,640
went to operating the jail so that if
any additional revenue that remains in

334
00:26:43,039 --> 00:26:52,720
the jail account at the end of the year
2025 December 31 it will transfer back

335
00:26:49,919 --> 00:26:56,799
into special projects. And this amount
should be a little lower than what it

336
00:26:54,880 --> 00:27:01,039
is.
>> Motion.

337
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:05,440
» I'll second it. All those in favor?
>> I.

338
00:27:02,159 --> 00:27:14,240
» Uh, next item up, we have cash transfers
uh to the highway department. We are

339
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:20,880
moving $200,000 from uh 1173
fund, which is motor vehicle highway

340
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:26,400
restricted. We're also uh switching out
of 4923 lit edit highway and this is one

341
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:30,960
of the accounts that was affected
200,000 into the local road bridge

342
00:27:29,039 --> 00:27:36,080
matching grant and this is to pay for
matching grants for the pavement we've

343
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:39,039
been carrying out u throughout the
county this year.

>> I'll second it. All those in favor?

» I.
>> Next item up, we have a PCDC affidavit

346
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:54,240
for payment. This is on mitigation
related to uh the Riverview West

347
00:27:52,320 --> 00:28:01,760
project. It's an ongoing thing that's
been under contract. Uh it's paid out of

348
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:06,720
the bond proceeds from that uh project
and um we're just required to uh to pay

349
00:28:06,159 --> 00:28:10,320
it.
>> I make a motion.

350
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:13,840
» I'll second it. All those in favor?
>> I

351
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:16,640
» uh bid information for Hauling Rock.
We're sending that out. I guess it's

352
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:20,960
you're advertising it now already,
aren't you, Chris?

353
00:28:18,159 --> 00:28:25,039
» And um I don't know what action we need
on that. We just need to uh

354
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:29,679
» when it comes in, we'll look at the bids
and uh

355
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:33,360
» we don't open those until December
meeting.

356
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:36,960
» So, as long as everyone's aware of it,
um it's out there and hopefully we'll

357
00:28:35,039 --> 00:28:40,399
get several to participate in it. I
don't know that we

358
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:44,320
» unless we want to make a motion to
approve the advertisement of that. It's

359
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:47,200
I think it's Yeah, it's already
>> did it. So, I don't know why

360
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,399
» Steve everything for that's in the specs
that we did, right? [snorts]

361
00:28:48,159 --> 00:28:51,679
» Yeah.
>> For the hauling.

362
00:28:49,679 --> 00:28:56,640
» Okay. The next item up is the ride
solution letter terminating the

363
00:28:53,360 --> 00:29:02,159
authorization and that says for 2026 and
I don't quite understand because we

364
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:05,600
signed one for 2025, had had no
discussion on this

365
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:11,120
» and now they're wanting a letter from us
for 26. So,

366
00:29:08,399 --> 00:29:16,880
and I'm not exactly sure what they're
wanting from us because it really

367
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:20,080
» we've never issued a letter for 2026.
>> She said even though we weren't giving

368
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,679
them funding,
>> we didn't give them any funding last

369
00:29:21,279 --> 00:29:25,039
year.
>> We didn't give them any funding that

370
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:30,159
they needed this letter for a grant with
INDOT.

371
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:37,600
And since they they from what I gather
from a is that they're not going to be

372
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:44,559
providing services in 2026.
>> So why do we write a letter

373
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:48,880
for 2026? I mean I don't what we've got
is one for 2025 that they sent in and

374
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:53,279
got a grant.
>> So I'm a little confused as to what they

375
00:29:51,679 --> 00:29:57,039
haven't even came to us and discussed
this with us. So I would ask that they

376
00:29:54,799 --> 00:29:59,919
would show up and bring some clarity to
this issue.

377
00:29:57,919 --> 00:30:04,799
» INDOT is requiring it. So if maybe they
can send us what INDOT said just

378
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:07,440
» or explain it to us curious table for
more info.

379
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:10,480
» Yeah, we'll table that one. I'd
entertain a motion to table that till we

380
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,039
get additional information.
>> Make a motion.

381
00:30:11,279 --> 00:30:19,440
» I'll second it. All those in favor?
>> I uh personnel policy handbook updates

382
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:25,120
that go into effect. Now we got the
whole entire

383
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:28,480
yellow. What's changed? and struck out.
>> I did you get that? Mine was clean.

384
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:32,880
» Yeah, I know.
>> I thought it had yellow on it.

385
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:36,159
» It was when you printed it's like this.
>> Okay. Cuz I page through there. I

386
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:40,559
thought this is what did they change?
And then I didn't see anything marked

387
00:30:37,679 --> 00:30:42,000
and I thought where is that?
>> Um

388
00:30:41,279 --> 00:30:45,039
» table it.
>> I'd want to table that so I can actually

389
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:48,159
read because I got to tell you I did not
look at any of because I thought I

390
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,720
looked through the first part of it and
I thought there's nothing marked out

391
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:55,120
here and I thought did that come through
at another time. I didn't have access to

392
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,440
my emails because they changed my
password on me

393
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:02,240
» and I didn't get
>> there's a copy. So, you can I can get

394
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:04,480
another copy. It's marked in yellow.
There's not much.

395
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,919
» That's what I was thinking.
>> Let's see. There's one.

396
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,640
» Okay. Cuz I I didn't go through the
whole thing, but I went through part of

397
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:14,320
and I couldn't see anything.
>> So, I'd entertain a motion to table that

398
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,760
till our next December meeting.
>> I make a motion.

399
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,919
» All those I'll second it. All those in
favor?

400
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:24,080
Hi.
>> Hi.

401
00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:27,919
» Um, right here, the next one, this is
just an information thing. We're getting

402
00:31:25,679 --> 00:31:31,440
ready. Uh, commissioner and council is
going to be accepting letters from

403
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:36,080
residents who are interested in serving
on one of our boards for 2026. The

404
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:40,240
applicants can submit their letter of
interest through a link on our website

405
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:45,120
or if they're more comfortable, send it
to a commissioner or council person and

406
00:31:43,279 --> 00:31:51,519
uh we will get our list put together and
our deadline is December 26, 2025. So,

407
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,880
um we'll make those appointments our
first meeting of the year

408
00:31:52,640 --> 00:32:00,159
» if they submit. The reason we did the um
link on the website is because so many

409
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:04,159
times they're missed and we have to have
a copy of all of those in the auditor's

410
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:09,200
office plus we have to have contact
information. So we get all different

411
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:13,120
kinds of letters as far as handwritten
that don't have address, don't have

412
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:18,240
phone number, don't have email or we get
a forwarded email. We've even got copies

413
00:32:16,159 --> 00:32:25,120
of Facebook printouts. So that's why we
did everything on the um online set up

414
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:29,120
an online Google sheet that you can do.
It'll create a spreadsheet which will go

415
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:34,960
directly to um whether it's the
commissioners or council on that. So um

416
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:38,240
it pops right up on the website. Um and
then also there's a link if you don't

417
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:44,159
see it right when it pops up.
>> And for those of you are intimidated,

418
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:47,840
you can send me, Pam, or Becky an email
or provide it to us.

419
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:53,600
» Yeah. by handing it to us. That'll work.
We're not wanting to shut anybody out

420
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:58,559
from from their ability to serve. So,
um, next item up, we have our

421
00:32:55,919 --> 00:33:04,880
organizational meeting on Monday,
January the 5th at 9:00 a.m. And, um,

422
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,880
that's pretty well all we have for
tonight.

423
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:17,360
» Did you?
Yeah.

424
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:20,840
Well, come on up, Steve. We don't have
you on the agenda.

425
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,840
All right.

426
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:38,880
Got a transfer request from gas to
equipment rental, $7,500. This is to pay

427
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:44,320
Duros Excavating for busting those rock
ledges out over there on Apricot Road.

428
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:46,720
» From gas like fuel from one item to the
next. Okay.

429
00:33:44,799 --> 00:33:49,440
» It's on the council agenda.
>> So, this is something we don't have to

430
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:53,600
deal with.
>> Well, I like to I always try to marry it

431
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:57,120
to you guys so you know what's going on.
>> So, we're going from fuel to what

432
00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:00,159
» to equipment rental.
>> Okay.

433
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:03,440
» And end up being 7500.
>> We think it's going to be less than

434
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:07,519
that. He's We got a couple more days to
go on yet. He thought he was going to be

435
00:34:05,919 --> 00:34:12,159
under that amount.
>> Okay.

436
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:17,200
» When he was in yesterday. Then I have a
additional appropriation for uh this is

437
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:20,520
for phase 2A on the bridge inspection
for $24,372.

438
00:34:21,919 --> 00:34:33,760
Um this will start January the 1st and
we get 80% of that reimbured from INDOT.

439
00:34:31,359 --> 00:34:35,040
» Okay. Now we're under contract with that
one, right?

440
00:34:34,399 --> 00:34:40,960
» Yes.
>> Okay. So this is but it's going to be a

441
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:46,480
26 pay.
>> It's going to be Yes.

442
00:34:43,119 --> 00:34:48,320
» So should we be doing that in 26?
>> Um

443
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,359
» because I don't know that we can
appropriate

444
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:55,839
» appropriate that in 2025's budget if
it's in 2026 budget.

445
00:34:53,679 --> 00:34:59,119
» Yeah. Okay.
>> Add a 2026.

446
00:34:57,119 --> 00:35:05,760
» I think that money is set there. I the
we have a bridge contract with pdarn and

447
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:09,520
lock miller for inspection and u we c we
really can't appropriate money for 26

448
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:14,880
» not till after March
>> even contract carryover

449
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:20,640
» you have to encumber it you encumber it
but you're not encumber you're using

450
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:22,800
2026 funds corre appropriation or I
guess I need to understand a little bit

451
00:35:22,079 --> 00:35:26,240
more
>> where's the money currently at do you

452
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,880
know what
>> come out of next year probably.

453
00:35:28,240 --> 00:35:33,680
» Okay. See,
>> I had to send in a federal request for

454
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:39,200
funds which will be issued in December
and they can't start to January. So the

455
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:42,400
it'll actually come next year.
>> You think they're going to recede it in

456
00:35:40,720 --> 00:35:44,400
in December?
>> I thought thought that's what we

457
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,200
normally did.
>> Okay. So if that happens, you need to

458
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:50,400
encumber that money
>> and then we appropriate

459
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:54,160
» and then appropriate it in 26. It's
already there, but but it doesn't need

460
00:35:51,839 --> 00:35:57,040
to be needs to stay there. Pay that
bridge contract.

461
00:35:55,280 --> 00:36:00,079
» Okay.
We're going to bring

462
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:03,520
» then additional appropriation for
400,000. That's that transfer you guys

463
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:06,400
done. That has to be
>> that's where that intent to appropriate.

464
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:09,920
I was going to say that
>> we've already done that.

465
00:36:08,240 --> 00:36:15,119
» They approved the transfer with intent
to appropriate. We just

466
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:20,480
» then I have a additional appropriation
for 161,000. That's for the new trucks.

467
00:36:17,839 --> 00:36:23,520
Is there any updates on
on that?

468
00:36:21,599 --> 00:36:27,520
» I think we have to I think we're still
in the comfort phase. Whenever you have

469
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,160
one of your employees come up here and
tell us you're short seven or five

470
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,720
people.
>> That's six people now.

471
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,880
» Okay. Six people now.
>> Yeah.

472
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:40,400
» It's uh
>> or will be next week.

473
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:42,800
» Right. So I think we have to work this
truck issue out.

474
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:47,200
» Did you get the
>> Yeah, I got the list of it and

475
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:49,760
» Okay. There's nothing on their low
mileage.

476
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:52,720
» Yeah. And then I think there's others
though. I think you still got some other

477
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:57,440
trucks out there. Are they need to leave
the fleet? What we do, the ones we park,

478
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:02,880
we strip parts off of them until we get
everything off of them that we can use

479
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:08,079
and then we have some kind of a
closed bed or sealed bed or auction or

480
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:13,359
something to get rid of them.
But we've got uh

481
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:16,800
we've got some trucks that we got one
truck that just pulls a patcher. It

482
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:22,960
ain't f it's a whole rock in it. Just
pulls patch around. It's an old

483
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:27,280
» Yeah. Do you have one suitable to put a
a tank on it to uh put some material

484
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:33,040
like uh
>> We've got a an old mechanic's truck

485
00:37:29,839 --> 00:37:37,599
that's one of our older ones
and it doesn't have a bed on it. We're

486
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:40,640
going to try to put a brine tank on it,
>> right?

487
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:45,920
» And use it for putting brine down when
we put brine down. But I've got seven

488
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:50,560
trucks that are capable of plowing snow
right now. We got one of them's broke

489
00:37:48,079 --> 00:37:55,280
down. They're putting a head on it, but
I got seven now. And we normally use

490
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:59,520
eight big trucks and four pickups to
plow with. So, we're short of truck

491
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:05,359
right now for plowing snow.
>> Now, did these all get new bids? Because

492
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:09,520
I know came in for some ARP money and
and bought salt beds.

493
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:12,960
» Yeah, the these three new ones will have
new stainless steel plows and salt beds

494
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:17,599
on them.
>> I'm talking about what your Cuz you got

495
00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:19,599
the ARP money back a year or two ago.
>> Yeah. Yeah.

496
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:23,839
» Did you buy you bought
>> We bought stainless beds then to replace

497
00:38:21,839 --> 00:38:27,359
our old beds that was rusting away.
>> So out of these seven trucks, are they

498
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:32,160
all new beds on them?
>> I don't think they all are.

499
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:36,240
» How many are?
>> Besides the three new truck, there's two

500
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:39,599
new stainless.
>> So we're Yeah.

501
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,720
» Okay. So wait a minute.
>> There's five.

502
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:45,920
» So you have five beds of stainless
stainless beds and

503
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,720
» the rest of them then are carbon. Mhm.
Okay.

504
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:59,920
Okay.
All right. I think we're not I mean I'm

505
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:04,720
not ready to buy a dump truck tonight.
Are you? Or

506
00:39:02,079 --> 00:39:11,839
I mean um we need
>> I don't see a need for three. Um I I

507
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:15,359
would prefer Becky be here, but I just I
have a hard time with three. Um

508
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:20,160
especially because of the need for the
drivers right now. Now, I don't know if

509
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:27,119
we can hold off on one until next year.
I'm not saying not saying no at all. I

510
00:39:25,119 --> 00:39:29,920
» The only problem with that is she had it
figured where we could pay for them out

511
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:32,240
of this year's budget. That's what we
was trying to do is pay for everything

512
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,480
this year.
>> You're not going to lose it though, are

513
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,400
you?
>> No.

514
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,560
» You're you're I mean, your budget
doesn't get zeroed out.

515
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:41,760
» No.
>> Where you're paying for. Okay.

516
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,240
» The cash doesn't go away. Yeah. I mean
the appropriate

517
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:47,280
» the main thing is so so it's not
something within his budget that he

518
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:50,880
needs to spend or he loses it.
>> No, the cash will stay in the funds that

519
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:54,800
it's been the
>> funds will still be there and and we can

520
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:58,480
have that discussion here next year.
>> The price could possibly go up. I don't

521
00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:02,400
know when the price will raise, but that
could possibly go up.

522
00:40:00,720 --> 00:40:04,640
» It'll be a year before we need these
trucks.

523
00:40:03,359 --> 00:40:08,400
» Yeah.
>> Year before we pay for them.

524
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:11,680
» Year before we get them. We going to pay
for them

525
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:16,160
» out of this year's budget. Order them
and lock the price in. It's what we was

526
00:40:14,240 --> 00:40:19,520
hoping to do. But
>> and then we we just don't pay for them

527
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:22,000
until they deliver them, right?
>> Yeah. Okay.

528
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:25,680
» So, we'd encumber that because we'd have
a purchase order for it.

529
00:40:24,079 --> 00:40:30,240
» You're It doesn't matter because if it's
a fund that doesn't zero itself out,

530
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,839
he'll still have the money. We don't
have to encumber it,

531
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:37,680
right?
just I mean I he doesn't need to be

532
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,960
anything if he's if he's losing his
money just have to re

533
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:44,000
» I see the urgency but if he continues to
get a hold the money

534
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,480
» then uh
>> we just

535
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:49,440
» you know a meeting or two in between
here is not going to make a significant

536
00:40:48,240 --> 00:40:53,040
difference especially if you're going to
get him in a year

537
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:58,720
» the only the only potential would be is
if they raise their price on that' be

538
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:03,680
our only risk
>> I think there was a to look at that

539
00:41:00,720 --> 00:41:07,240
quote again I think it was valid 90
Is it okay?

540
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:16,480
» Then I have the uh
application to bore on Girl Scout Road.

541
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:20,400
I sent that today.
>> And then So that's Comcast.

542
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:25,440
» Yeah. Here's
Yeah, I think that's who it is.

543
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:30,079
» Yes, it is Comcast.
>> And there's a map of it.

544
00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:32,640
» Do they fix that then once they're done?
Well, when they bore it like that,

545
00:41:31,839 --> 00:41:36,160
there's usually
>> Do they sleeve it or not?

546
00:41:34,319 --> 00:41:39,200
» I think they're going to sleeve it. Yes.
>> Okay.

547
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:42,480
» They just bore under the road and they
don't actually. Yeah.

548
00:41:41,599 --> 00:41:45,480
» Hopefully.
>> Right.

549
00:41:47,839 --> 00:41:52,960
It's kind of hard to tell from these
pictures where exactly it's at, but

550
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:56,319
» Yeah, I know. That's why I looked at it.
I thought it

551
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:59,839
» envision where it's actually coming
across.

552
00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:03,359
» Yeah. So,
I I don't have any problem.

553
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:08,800
» Yeah, me neither. It's hopefully it'll
provide service into that area that

554
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:13,359
» they don't currently have.
>> So, yeah, I'd entertain a motion to

555
00:42:11,119 --> 00:42:15,920
approve the boring of it's Girl Scout
Road, right?

556
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,240
» Mhm.
>> By uh BSM Group.

557
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:22,400
» Yeah.
>> Who's working for Comcast?

558
00:42:21,119 --> 00:42:28,319
» Yeah.
>> I make a motion.

559
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:34,680
» I'll second it. All those in favor? Hi.
>> So, we need to add that

560
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,680
» and you need to sign that.

561
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:43,359
» They have started the paving on
Branchville Road yesterday. Hope to get

562
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:48,240
that done. You know, if it quit rain for
a few days, we can get that done and get

563
00:42:46,079 --> 00:42:51,040
those other paving. They're supposed to
start on that this week. But the

564
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:56,160
weather, I don't know if they'll get
started or not on that stuff. you

565
00:42:54,240 --> 00:43:00,400
talking about like the big major patches
out on some of the other roads? Yes.

566
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:05,119
» I I just have one comment to make on the
highway department and the schedule. So,

567
00:43:02,240 --> 00:43:10,319
the whole the whole idea was because we
were behind on work and I will honestly

568
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:14,240
say they've been kicking butt. They've
been stuff

569
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:20,240
» especially for 10 guys.
>> So, kudos to to to your crew and they've

570
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:25,599
been safe doing it and greatly
appreciated. I am seeing a big

571
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:29,119
turnaround, but it's not, you know, just
keep that in mind. It's not because we

572
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:35,040
want to punish anybody. It's because we
were behind on work. Uh, and if we're

573
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:39,040
getting that caught up, that's a that's
what we're supposed to be doing. So, but

574
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,720
I want to say they're getting there and
it it is

575
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,720
» Yeah, it's just
>> people are noticing takes a little

576
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,160
while.
>> Greatly appreciated. And if we get bids

577
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:49,599
on some of these people that'll provide
additional services and that's part of

578
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:54,319
the plan.
>> I mean I think we're open just just to

579
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:58,560
get the work completed. I mean that's
that's the goal. You get short-handed if

580
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,040
you can contract somebody to help you
out.

581
00:43:59,359 --> 00:44:03,599
» By all means that's that's what we're
here for serving the serving the public.

582
00:44:03,119 --> 00:44:07,760
So
>> Moser has been a big help on this

583
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:12,640
apricot and cottonwood. We we couldn't
hold the rock the amount of rock. Oh and

584
00:44:10,240 --> 00:44:15,359
the tide road. We got that slide fixed.
It's repaired.

585
00:44:13,599 --> 00:44:16,800
» Good. So, you're ready to
>> slap a patch on it.

586
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,240
» Yep.
>> Good.

587
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:23,920
» And uh I've got that in with it to do
that.

588
00:44:21,359 --> 00:44:28,720
» We reused about 800 ton of little over
800 ton of rip wrap on that. But my guys

589
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:32,960
done it in four or five days, three or
four days. We didn't have, you know, we

590
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:35,760
didn't ain't no ton of what it would
cost to hire somebody there and done

591
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,800
that. If
>> you can get it done, it's going to be

592
