silence.

5
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:34,399
Thank you. Welcome everybody.
Start with the commissioner's agenda.

6
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:36,719
Any public comment on the commissioner's
agenda?

7
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,760
» This is where I can ask question.
>> This is where you better ask now. Hold

8
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,079
your piece.
>> Number six, uh the ordinance regarding

9
00:00:42,559 --> 00:00:48,879
uh the $5 fee.
>> Um can you explain just a little bit

10
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:51,200
about how all that came about?
>> You know, how long have you guys been

11
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:57,199
discussing that?
>> Well, it's been uh in discussion since

12
00:00:54,399 --> 00:01:03,039
what was it 2013 or 2015 when they
enacted it? What was the date? Let me

13
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:08,560
see.
2015. 2013 is when they enacted it. 2015

14
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:15,320
is when counties started putting it in
place. We're one of the few counties

15
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,320
left that haven't done it yet.

16
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:20,000
» Do you know how many vehicles are in
Saskuana County that this is going to

17
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,895
impact?
>> I know. I've got four. [laughter]

18
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:30,920
No, I do not have that number off the
top of my head. There was a study done

19
00:01:27,759 --> 00:01:30,920
on it.

20
00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:37,119
» Do you have a figure of how much you
guys expect to race through this?

21
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:42,880
» Well, it's all going to depend on,
again, that's a a dart in the board on

22
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:46,320
the wall because we don't know u if you
register your car for one year, you pay

23
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:50,479
five bucks. If you register for two
years, you pay five bucks. So, if you do

24
00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:53,920
it for two years, you're only paying 250
a year.

25
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:59,040
» So, so we don't know what we're going to
get.

26
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:04,960
But when it comes to
40 bridges that the county owns, any

27
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:10,239
help we can get for replacement of those
bridges or work, that's the main thing.

28
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,040
» Now, I noticed it's not supposed to take
effect until May. Is that just to give

29
00:02:12,239 --> 00:02:16,239
the department
>> just the process? It has to go back

30
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,360
through the Department of Transportation
for them to enact it and put it in place

31
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,920
because they collect it and then they
send it to us.

32
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,760
» All right. Anybody else on that?
Anything on anything else?

33
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:33,680
» I have a question on that because I gave
a presentation about this at our state

34
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:38,480
association.
>> Yep.

35
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:41,519
» And does it go with act 89 or 44 or is
it a separate fund?

36
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:45,640
» It's act 89.
>> Okay.

37
00:02:42,239 --> 00:02:45,640

174
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:22,560
All in favor say I.
>> I.

175
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:27,120
» I. So carried. Uh before we close again
back to the $5 fee, uh we're one of the

176
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:32,800
few counties left in the state that
finally enacted it. Uh basically the

177
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:36,480
condition of local bridges have gotten
to the point where we're starting to

178
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:40,640
have to replace bridges and do major
work. We have one uh bridge we've

179
00:11:38,959 --> 00:11:44,480
already gotten a multimotal grant on
that Christian Daryl worked with uh was

180
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,760
housing authority, right? Housing
authority on to get us and that was what

181
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:51,839
two and a half million
>> $2.5 million grant. We still have to

182
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:56,160
come up with our match on it which we
pay. Uh we have another bridge that we

183
00:11:54,079 --> 00:12:01,680
just put in to uh try and get a
multimodal on um to get the funding for

184
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:07,279
that. The issue is is all these bridges
in the county are all aging out and

185
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:13,040
becoming uh in somewhat less than
optimum condition and are going to

186
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:19,760
require uh replacements, a lot of them.
And right now the cost to replace a uh a

187
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:25,680
small bridge is anywhere from $2 million
to $5 million. So it's very expensive to

188
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:29,360
replace them. Uh don't know how we ended
up with all the bridges. We don't own

189
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:34,240
any of the roads. Well, for some reason
we own all the bridges. So that was must

190
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:37,760
have been a heck of a deal back in the
early times. So

191
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,800
» we have a significant match that we have
to go with, you know, multi.

192
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:44,399
» Yeah. So multimotal we have a
significant match on the other one

193
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:49,680
that's like $2.5 million. It's like
$659,000

194
00:12:46,959 --> 00:12:54,639
we have to match for. So they are
significant. So again, instead of just

195
00:12:52,639 --> 00:12:58,560
doing tax increases every year, this is
a way to basically hit the people who

196
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:03,279
are driving across the bridges and
trying to get some funds to uh um be

197
00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:09,279
able to pay for our match and get these
bridges replaced. So that's what that's

198
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:13,214
about. So, and uh I guess it's this
weekend's Valentine's Day, right? So,

199
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:18,320
happy Valentine's Day to everybody.
