1
00:00:01,580 --> 00:00:13,310
Good morning, all. I will call the Thursday, September 3rd Board of County Commissioners meeting to order Chris, will you do roll call please?

2
00:00:13,690 --> 00:00:15,670
Commissioner Halls here, Commissioner Chilka.

3
00:00:15,890 --> 00:00:17,850
Here, Commissioner, I'm here.

4
00:00:20,530 --> 00:00:22,450
Commissioner Chilka, will you give me the system?

5
00:00:23,530 --> 00:00:30,930
All right, congratulations to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands.

6
00:00:30,930 --> 00:00:36,380
One nation under God, and it is both with liberty and justice for all.

7
00:00:37,090 --> 00:00:37,930
Thank you, Greg.

8
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:51,700
Public comment for those participating by a granicous, you may call 406-375-6513 in order to provide

9
00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:52,800
your public comment.

10
00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:57,200
And contracts for services, I understand we have none.

11
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,800
All right.

12
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:10,780
And our public hearing will start at 10.45 with the Sheriff's Retirement Levy Resolution 4808.

13
00:01:11,820 --> 00:01:13,980
We need to assess for six minutes.

14
00:01:16,670 --> 00:01:16,830
Okay.

15
00:01:18,050 --> 00:01:19,890
Okay, it is 10.45.

16
00:01:20,310 --> 00:01:27,430
We will begin with the Sheriff's Retirement Levy by a Resolution 4808.

17
00:01:29,310 --> 00:01:40,350
So, as you know, you're able to love the increase in share of retirement from the current

18
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:47,010
percentage that is contributed compared with the base year, which I believe is 2017.

19
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:50,430
So, the difference in those two years is 3.2%.

20
00:01:50,430 --> 00:02:02,870
percent, so you're able to levied that which this year equates to $149,826, which is

21
00:02:02,870 --> 00:02:04,350
0.939.

22
00:02:05,290 --> 00:02:13,890
Mr. Chair, I move to a proven adopt resolution number 480, a share of retirement permissive

23
00:02:13,890 --> 00:02:17,130
levied for 3.2% increase in county contributions.

24
00:02:17,130 --> 00:02:24,490
Second, it's been moved in 2nd and 2 approved resolution for 808 Sheriff's Retirement for

25
00:02:24,490 --> 00:02:31,050
Missy-Guevee or 3.2% increase in county contributions.

26
00:02:32,630 --> 00:02:36,890
Is there any public comment on that motion for the discussion?

27
00:02:37,970 --> 00:02:43,070
question, Greg, and I vote as well, motion care.

28
00:02:59,740 --> 00:03:03,220
We will recess until 11 a.m.

29
00:03:03,460 --> 00:03:04,160
That's what

30
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:17,280
we will reconvene with lighting districts by a resolution for 809.

31
00:03:20,820 --> 00:03:29,960
So we have to love you for the Carallas Victor and Westview lighting districts and it's based off the

32
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:38,640
estimated expenses for the utilities for those districts, and then it's using the tax level

33
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:49,120
value of the properties in those districts. So for 27, a Corvallis lighting will be 8.98

34
00:03:49,120 --> 00:04:00,800
bills. Victor will be $5.03. And Westview is $1.28 per front-to-front footage.

35
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:08,700
Mr. Chair moved to approve Resolution 4809 for the lighting district, levees, as

36
00:04:08,700 --> 00:04:17,720
discussed. Second, it's been moved in seconded to approve Resolution 4809 for the

37
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,040
lighting districts, levees in their valley county.

38
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,340
Is there any public comment on that motion?

39
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:26,300
Further discussion?

40
00:04:27,900 --> 00:04:28,620
Question Jeff?

41
00:04:29,340 --> 00:04:29,420
Greg?

42
00:04:30,060 --> 00:04:30,200
All right.

43
00:04:30,340 --> 00:04:31,660
And I will die as well.

44
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:32,540
I'll go from the carries.

45
00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:40,260
But with that, we will pause until 11.15.

46
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:52,940
You know, OK, we will reconvene with the physical year 27 elected

47
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:57,560
officials salaries by a resolution 4810.

48
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,360
The salary compensation board met on April 20, 2006,

49
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:14,740
and they passed the various levels of funding

50
00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:18,280
for the elective issues that they passed.

51
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:25,060
Ms. Chair, I'm moved to a program that does resolution 48, 10, a resolution, 7, and the

52
00:05:25,060 --> 00:05:29,120
salaries are elected officials for fiscal year 27.

53
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:34,600
I'll second, as long as we have some discussion on the one salary on here.

54
00:05:37,150 --> 00:05:38,510
This has been moved in second.

55
00:05:40,610 --> 00:05:47,010
To approve resolution 48, 10, a resolution establishing the salaries of elected officials

56
00:05:48,710 --> 00:05:53,090
is there any public comment on that motion?

57
00:05:54,570 --> 00:05:55,490
Further discussion?

58
00:05:57,330 --> 00:05:58,330
Question Jim.

59
00:05:59,270 --> 00:05:59,810
I'm Greg.

60
00:06:00,770 --> 00:06:02,070
And I vote as well.

61
00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:03,250
Motion carries.

62
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:07,220
Resess.

63
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,220
We will pause until

64
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:11,100
130.

65
00:06:21,660 --> 00:06:23,240
We convened with

66
00:06:25,220 --> 00:06:27,280
our 2027 or

67
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:47,280
In the next public hearing, the legal notices were placed in the newspaper record and printed August 26 and September 2nd.

68
00:06:47,980 --> 00:06:49,080
Thank you, Chris.

69
00:06:52,990 --> 00:06:54,830
So, commissioners, you're allowed to

70
00:06:54,830 --> 00:07:01,550
let me for medical insurance for healthcare premiums.

71
00:07:01,650 --> 00:07:05,750
And it also includes our de-in-loop payments that we make.

72
00:07:06,610 --> 00:07:12,470
So, it's based on their total cost for health insurance and de-in-loop payments.

73
00:07:12,470 --> 00:07:28,550
So for 2027 that total amount is 3,144,932 and 429 employees and that is compared to the base year of 2000 of what we paid then.

74
00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:43,230
So we are allowed to let the two million 616133 and that equates to 16.67 mills.

75
00:07:43,610 --> 00:07:47,290
Let's see the difference between 2000 and 27.

76
00:07:48,150 --> 00:07:48,890
It's outrageous.

77
00:07:49,770 --> 00:07:57,990
$393,000 in 2000 to $3.14 million today.

78
00:07:57,990 --> 00:07:59,930
Kind of a thousand percent of them.

79
00:08:01,630 --> 00:08:02,010
Wow.

80
00:08:02,950 --> 00:08:07,830
Mr. Chairman, move to approve resolution 4811, the permissive medical

81
00:08:07,830 --> 00:08:11,130
heavy for healthcare premiums.

82
00:08:11,130 --> 00:08:11,450
Second.

83
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:17,010
It's been moved in second and two approved resolution 4811.

84
00:08:17,010 --> 00:08:20,850
We'll miss it medical level for health care premiums.

85
00:08:20,910 --> 00:08:22,690
Is there any public comment on that motion?

86
00:08:24,630 --> 00:08:25,730
Any further discussion?

87
00:08:26,850 --> 00:08:27,650
Question, Jeff?

88
00:08:28,310 --> 00:08:28,330
Aye.

89
00:08:28,330 --> 00:08:28,790
And Greg?

90
00:08:29,710 --> 00:08:31,330
And I will add as well, motion carries.

91
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:50,400
We will pause until 11.45, and we will do final budget.

92
00:08:55,870 --> 00:09:08,530
All righty, we'll reconvene with the adoption of the physical year 2027 final budget by a resolution 4812.

93
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:19,900
So commissioners by Percode, MCA Code 7, 64030, you have to adopt the budget by resolution.

94
00:09:19,900 --> 00:09:34,040
So, our final budget for fiscal $27, operating budget, the corporations are $47,185,627.

95
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:46,220
We will be using property tax revenues of $20,031,340 to partially fund those appropriations

96
00:09:46,220 --> 00:09:50,020
And this equates to 127.9A.

97
00:09:52,710 --> 00:09:54,510
Those mills consist of the aggregate,

98
00:09:55,730 --> 00:09:58,350
levy, the road levy,

99
00:09:59,130 --> 00:09:59,490
boated levy.

100
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:06,380
Ladies, the permissive, medical levies that we discussed earlier, and the entitlement levies.

101
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:15,580
Mr. Chairman, move to approve an adopt resolution number 4812, a resolution adopted in the final operating budget.

102
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:23,680
Instead of appropriation authority for the fiscal year, beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 3227.

103
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:44,060
It has been moved in second and to approve resolution, 48, 12, a resolution adopting the final operating budget and setting up appropriation authority for the fiscal year, beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, of 2027.

104
00:10:45,140 --> 00:10:47,540
Is there any public comment on that motion?

105
00:10:49,140 --> 00:10:50,720
It's ready for the discussion,

106
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:53,400
question, Greg,

107
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,560
and Jeff, and I vote aye as well.

108
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:57,980
I'll share the carries.

109
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:00,740
The

110
00:11:06,020 --> 00:11:09,320
total non-tax resources.

111
00:11:13,940 --> 00:11:16,560
So that would be reserved?

112
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,220
It's your non-tax revenues plus the resources available

113
00:11:22,220 --> 00:11:25,400
coming forward from the previous year.

114
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:26,560
Is that total?

115
00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:36,740
of 35.9, so that plus the property tax revenues equals 55.9, which is the appropriations

116
00:11:36,740 --> 00:11:37,820
plus reasons.

117
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,960
Okay, the next thing on our agenda is a creation of a large taxpayer

118
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,760
reserved fund by a resolution 48-15.

119
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:04,620
So this establishes fund number 2388, I think.

120
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:10,080
I think it is, which is for the large tax payer reserve.

121
00:12:12,060 --> 00:12:33,080
So, with the change of legislature, we only receive 40% of class codes other than class code number four, which is residential commercial, but we can get 50% of that if we set up this large taxpayer reserve fund.

122
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:46,480
So this establishes the setting up of that, and then so that we can receive those funds, and I think believe this year that you equates to that

123
00:12:48,620 --> 00:12:49,760
is around $7,000.

124
00:12:52,340 --> 00:13:04,300
And we can only use those funds if certain things happen with the large taxpayer leaves or greatly reduces their presence in the county.

125
00:13:04,300 --> 00:13:09,680
We can use those funds for certain things that it is guidelines and how we can actually

126
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:09,980
use

127
00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:12,440
it.

128
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:18,600
The chairman moved to a proven adopt resolution 40, 15 large tax payer reserve fund creation.

129
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,400
I'm sorry.

130
00:13:20,180 --> 00:13:27,680
It's been moved in second and two approved resolution 48, 15 creating a large tax payer reserve

131
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:28,920
fund.

132
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,620
Is there any public comment on that motion for

133
00:13:34,590 --> 00:13:35,110
the discussion?

134
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,160
Question, Greg?

135
00:13:38,780 --> 00:13:42,700
And Jeff and I will die as well. Motion carries.

136
00:13:46,820 --> 00:13:50,300
And that is at it. Nothing else today.

137
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,900
Okay. With that, is there any public comment on items,

138
00:13:55,220 --> 00:13:56,460
otherwise on our agenda.

139
00:13:57,900 --> 00:13:59,580
Second, we are adjourned.
