[snorts] left on
>> well I'd have to look at my spreadsheet
[2:27]
but
>> two come off two is supposed to come off
[2:29]
this year and four next year everything
>> everything yeah I was just because I
[2:34]
that's what I thought in the past we
were getting to a point where we
[2:38]
» one one of them though this year wasn't
a lease purchase It ended up being just
[2:44]
a lease, so we had to buy it out the
end. So, we're rolling that back into
[2:51]
» Yeah. Yeah. That's I should have waited
the highway to ask that, but I got I got
[2:55]
no problems with the claims of payroll.
Anybody else?
[2:59]
» Nope.
[3:04]
» Got a motion.

[3:32]
» Oh, yeah.
>> Still waiting.
[3:35]
» Yeah. Yeah.
All right. Uh, I don't know who was on
[3:41]
email, but they pushed a thousand lists
back a week already.
[3:44]
» That's what I just heard this morning. I
was asking uh who the contact was, which
[3:48]
I have his number, so I was going to
find out. They got in trouble last week
[3:52]
for moving a grinder in on 650 North.
The state police stopped him right after
[3:59]
they got off the four lane.
>> Really?
[4:01]
» They were coming down 650. Yeah.
So, I don't know why they wouldn't go
[4:07]
down thousand, but
>> yeah. Yeah.
[4:11]
» So, [clears throat] I don't know what
happened with that, but
[4:13]
» Okay.
>> Well, regardless of start date, they
[4:17]
have a timeline by they have to be done
by. So,
[4:19]
» and that's what he said. He said they
got pushed back, but that's still going
[4:22]
to have it done by then. So, yeah.
[4:27]
» The end of October, I think 26th or
something like that.
[4:30]
» Yeah. I forget. It was six weeks, wasn't
it?
[4:37]
Um it's all
yeah.
[4:45]
[clears throat]
>> Okay. So now county farm pasture bid
[4:50]
opening Jim Willlet is retiring and to
keep things in line we went ahead and
[4:57]
let he was on the county farm and the
fall well and we went ahead and
[5:04]
uh opened all three for bid. So we'll
start with
[5:10]
the pasture. Yeah.
[5:44]
Okay.
[5:50]
Uh, I have a bid from Matt.
Um,
[5:56]
I don't know Matt, but it looks like
he's a Beatersburg address.
[6:00]
Um anyway
um
[6:05]
$75 an acre
doesn't say acres or anything else but
[6:11]
uh obviously we take all these under
investment try to sort out apples apples
[6:17]
and what what they are but uh that's h o
u m- s
[6:25]
[clears throat]
>> that's that's just the pasture right
[6:27]
that one
>> that's just the pasture yes
[6:29]
» it's 77 acres approximately by the way.
[6:39]
» That seems
>> I know there was more.
[6:42]
» And then here we have uh Clint Frink
who's currently on it for $2,000 per
[6:48]
year.
[7:06]
put them in a pile and I will scan them
with you guys.
[7:15]
» No, 2,000 a year.
>> I thought you said an acre.
[7:20]
» A year.
[7:27]
Thank you.
[7:34]
» Next we'll do county farm.
There are plenty of these.
[7:55]
If you hear nothing
[8:19]
person case Garrett bit.
Um, okay. This is just three copies.
[8:26]
So, his bid is for both Bwell and the
County Farm.
[8:37]
Um,
and he listed a range of between 245 and
[8:42]
$270 an acre.
[8:55]
45.
Okay.
[9:10]
» Can you explain the range to us?
>> The range of
[9:16]
the 240 or is it 270?
>> He's my my secure and confident lease
[9:22]
range 245 to 270. So I guess he's
willing to negotiate.
[9:35]
» That's I mean you're going to take them
under adisement and compare them. So
[9:38]
yeah, it's it's a bid. I don't know that
it's going to work.
[9:42]
» Yeah.
>> If everyone else gives a specific
[9:44]
amount.
[9:51]
Uh,
>> this is
[9:56]
Lloyd's
[10:01]
resume here, but it uh it says
[10:07]
we're looking at anyway the cash
amount was 280 an acre.
[10:14]
What's
>> 280?
[10:16]
» Oh, 280.
>> Does it specify
[10:20]
» both farms?
>> Yes.
[10:27]
» Or County farm ground?
>> Or County Farm. Yes. So,
[10:33]
» that all said county farm. So, we'll
assume it's for that.
[10:37]
» Yes. [snorts]
[10:40]
» And not followup. Just the county farm.
you thinking
[10:44]
» it appears to be uh county farm.
>> We can talk to him. It may be for both.
[10:52]
» Uh this one is uh from Matt again from
Reersburg. Um uh 265 per acre
[11:01]
» or both?
>> Uh this says county farm. So I I don't
[11:06]
know if there's one for Paul or not, but
I'm going to take it as county. Okay.
[11:28]
Okay. Three
more.
[12:08]
I know you text.
[12:14]
Uh, this one is Tristan Barnes for the
Carbondale Farm. 300 per acre.
[12:22]
» 300 you said?
>> Yes. 300.
[12:40]
» Okay. And I have Sam
Verhovven the younger
[12:47]
for $250 an acre
[12:52]
» for the
>> county farm
[13:06]
» I have Joseph Silver's
>> 250
[13:09]
» um for County Farm 282 per acre
>> 282.
[13:17]
» That's Joseph or
>> Joseph.
[13:19]
» And that's the county farm.
>> So it says,
[13:22]
» "Sorry,
[laughter] we're asking you all
[13:24]
questions, right?
[13:30]
I wonder if they know
[13:42]
that.
[13:48]
» Oh, that's Yeah,
[13:54]
» Kate said all the follow I thought.
>> Yeah, it'll be there's a stack of those,
[13:59]
too. Okay. Okay. Just separate some of
them. That's right.
[14:04]
» They came in kind of
>> I know
[14:07]
» we got

[14:29]
Yeah. First one I have here is from
Carson Meyers
[14:34]
for $300 an acre.
[14:40]
And he also bid Fwell at 270 per acre.
[15:36]
Um,
this one is Eric and Rachel Carter. I'm
[15:41]
trying to figure out uh
track one, track two, track three.
[15:46]
That's the county farm. That's the three
tracks of the county.
[15:50]
Yeah.
>> Yes.
[15:52]
» So that's that's what he's this bid is
for 300 per acre.
[15:58]
» Who is it? I'm sorry. Craig. Who was it?
>> Uh Eric and Rachel Carpenter.
[16:13]
» That was for pasture too.
>> Just No, that was just the land.
[16:18]
cut. Yeah,
>> just the county part. So, okay.
[16:26]
» All right, that's it for Carbondale.
We'll move on to Ballwell.
[17:18]
The first one I have is Joseph Silver

[17:26]
breaker
for the fall.
[17:37]
This is Matt Holmes.
[17:46]
It says
has a bunch of stuff in there about the
[17:51]
quality of the soil and
level of all the nutrients in it, but
[17:58]
it
[18:03]
265 an acre.
[18:18]
This is uh this one's from uh
who signed it, but
[18:26]
uh Michael Inman and William Enman.
[18:40]
235.
[18:46]
[clears throat]
[19:18]
Okay, we have Tristan Barnes again.
Uh
[19:24]
260
per acre for Cwell.
[19:59]
This is
[20:03]
Eric
[20:06]
and Rachel Carpenter

>> for Fwell.

>> Yeah.
[20:25]
[clears throat]
[20:44]
» So that's all we have.
Um,
[20:49]
obviously we just opened it this
morning, so
[20:53]
we'll um
think we're ready to make a decision
[20:57]
today.
Um,
[21:01]
some of them have some pretty long
letters with them describing soil and so
[21:06]
we're going to look up what they're
>> they're table until September 21st
[21:11]
meeting.
>> Yeah. Well, yeah, we'd be ready by by
[21:16]
then, two weeks,
>> and then we'll do a working meeting
[21:19]
somewhere along the way. Let me know.
You guys can sit down and go through
[21:24]
them.
>> Yeah, maybe.
[21:27]
» That sounds good. Be a good idea.
[21:33]
» Yeah. Thank you for bearing with us.
[21:39]
» Okay.
Anything else on the county farm?
[21:44]
Nobody. Okay. Let's move on then
[21:49]
extension
H.
[21:54]
[clears throat]
[22:06]
» Thank you.
[22:10]
» Over the weekend we got one from LCO.
Did Yeah. So, did
[22:15]
» I send it to you guys?
>> Yeah. So, did Fate come in and ask for
[22:19]
that or
>> No, not for me.
[22:22]
» Huh?
>> Not from me.
[22:27]
» Okay. I I just I had to talk to him. I
had to talk to him. I didn't
[22:31]
» So, you didn't ask them for a bid is
what you're saying. Did one of you guys
[22:34]
ask them for
>> No, I didn't. I just was
[22:37]
» Oh,
>> and I Yeah. And I didn't I asked Russ
[22:41]
and Russ said I didn't talk to him so I
didn't know where where you know anyone
[22:45]
who they talked to or whatever but um
anyway
[22:51]
okay
>> yeah Tanner sent it and sent it to us.
[22:56]
» Okay
[23:00]
anyway
>> isn't bad to have three isn't bad to
[23:03]
have three.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So, um,
[23:08]
yeah, I don't know. I haven't I mean, I
got that one over the weekend. I hadn't
[23:12]
really compared it to it, but uh um
>> So, do you want to go ahead and read out
[23:18]
what you have?
>> Okay. Yeah. Um,
[23:22]
» it's up to you.
>> Yeah, that's fine.
[23:25]
Get them back up here.
[clears throat] Um,
[23:30]
yeah, the lens come.
Uh they they've all
[23:37]
some of them have bid two different
levels of furnace like an 80% efficient
[23:41]
and the 95 96% efficient. I'm not sure I
would question that. Uh
[23:50]
again so we're compare them because that
let's efficient furnace uh $9,55
[23:59]
9.
Um,
[24:02]
» and then there's a second quote from
them for 80%. Do you want my copies?
[24:07]
» Okay.
>> So, you're not looking at your computer.
[24:09]
Makes it easier maybe.
>> There you go.
[24:13]
» I only got one here. Okay.
So, yeah. Then uh for an 80% was uh uh
[24:22]
7855.
[24:26]
Um
>> Mhm.
[24:29]
» those two. Then uh BT Reynolds
um
[24:36]
um
[24:40]
they're uh they have a 96% efficient at
12 that's 12,287
[24:47]
but they have a 95%
efficient that's 10,297.
[24:52]
So
there's a I think that's a that top one
[24:56]
must be a variable speed one. So I don't
um um yeah there's there's a lot of
[25:04]
difference there for
um
[25:07]
for 1% efficient on the furnace. So
anyway, I'm not I I not sure on we're
[25:15]
comparing apples and apples and uh uh
Everheart's
[25:21]
80% furnace was 8738
and their 96% furnace was uh 9798.
[25:30]
So
um
[25:34]
I think if whatever we do, we would use
the most efficient furnace.
[25:38]
» Yeah. And uh uh so I have so I guess
comparing those we ever hurts at 96%
[25:45]
furnace is 9798
uh BT Reynolds is 10,297
[25:54]
uh no excuse me 12,287
12,287
[26:00]
for the 96% furnace and then uh uh on
lums
[26:08]
I just don't know. It's a 95% efficient
furnace, but I don't know if um
[26:15]
what the difference is between the 95
and 96.
[26:19]
I mean, I got a feeling the 96 is a
variable speed furnace,
[26:24]
but uh
um
[26:29]
yeah, these are both single stage
furnaces, so they're run one speed all
[26:34]
the time.
[26:56]
You want to table it till the next
meeting?
[27:00]
You can
>> everything
[27:04]
right away. Uh well the the so the uh
the uh AC unit had k was kicking the
[27:13]
breaker out and they some patch work and
they said but that that unit's dragging
[27:19]
so much that it's kicking the breaker
and it's someday it's got it's not going
[27:23]
to make it and uh when the guys were
here they mentioned that in this speech
[27:30]
that that that extension HVAC unit was
old and inefficient. So anyway, uh
[27:39]
we we can hold off two weeks and I can
confirm with these guys to make sure
[27:44]
these are all right. I had like I said,
I had looked them over and thought I
[27:48]
knew what was so we got this this other
one over the weekend. So, uh we probably
[27:54]
better wait. Hate to hate to do that,
but
[27:58]
» Well, we can call a meeting if we need
to. I mean, we're gonna have
[28:01]
» I mean, I I don't think it's an
emergency unless it becomes an
[28:04]
emergency, and then if it is, we'll make
an emergency decision. So,
[28:10]
» right. It sounds like a plan.
Thank you.
[28:19]
» Okay.
Next is the WTH
[28:25]
uh PIS map agreement with Core Logic.
>> This is one we get every year.
[28:33]
» Yeah.
>> Um and we get as a county $750
[28:40]
for this.
[28:44]
And it's just so that they can go in and
look at the data. I mean, it's not they
[28:49]
can't do anything with their data.
viewing it. So,
[29:00]
» any discussion?
>> I know.
[29:06]
» All right. I'll make motion that we
approve the uh
[29:11]
agreement with Core Logic allowing them
to use our practice technology.
[29:17]
» Second.
All those in favor say I.
[29:20]
» I
>> post.
[29:24]
Yeah.
[29:28]
» Okay. So, you guys already I know um
voted on it like but we need to ratify
[29:33]
it. That's all. That's all.
>> Yeah. He had an emergency.
[29:36]
» Yeah.
>> Freezer went out. Um [clears throat] we
[29:40]
had to have him to go ahead fix that
freezer and the cooler. Yeah. Correct.
[29:49]
I'll make the motion to approve the
increaser per trader in the jail.
[29:56]
» I second that.
>> Moved and seconded. Just to be clear,
[30:01]
the total for both was $32,670.
BT Reynolds did the uh install
[30:10]
uh
>> paid from
[30:12]
» and Yeah. Where's it coming from?
>> Yeah, that's what I
[30:15]
» that's what you want. But I would
suggest
[30:19]
[clears throat] if
>> I can just add I appreciate the fair
[30:22]
board loaning us out their freezers
while we were there. So they
[30:27]
» that made much for us they were able to
take our food up there so we didn't lose
[30:31]
it all. So
[30:35]
» did you lose any of it?
>> I don't think so.
[30:38]
kind of make it clear. The reason we end
up replacing everything was to replace
[30:44]
the
>> the compressor. How much on one?
[30:48]
» Just under $10,000 for a rebuild.
>> But didn't make sense to buy and fix it
[30:53]
and we made the decision to replace both
of them and that way we're in good shape
[30:59]
for years.
>> Yeah, they were originals to the
[31:02]
building so they lasted quite a while.
[31:11]
Okay, that's that.
Snider Geomatics
[31:17]
cornerstone.
[31:22]
Randy, you have anything for us?
[clears throat]
[31:25]
I think the contract to look at. I just
need your signature though so we can get
[31:32]
started.
Crops come off.
[31:37]
Based on the map, it's between West Leon
and Williamsport. Sections out there
[31:43]
sections. Yes. [clears throat]
[31:49]
» All good. Ingred looked at the contract
and she said it was all good.
[31:52]
» Yeah.
[31:56]
» I'll move that we move forward with
Snider dramatic cornerstone agreement.
[32:02]
» Second.
Those in favor say I.
[32:07]
» I oppose.
[32:28]
And MLOU with the school resource
officer. And
[32:33]
uh well for the school resource officer
with the school and the county
[32:39]
looks like this another thing we do
every year.
[32:44]
Are there any changes?
>> Yes. The only change really is the 50%
[32:49]
the payment of the appointment of an SRO
MSD agrees to pay and provide 50% of the
[32:55]
assigned deputy salary and employment
benefits to Warren County in accordance
[33:00]
with the applicable salary schedules and
employment practices of war.
[33:05]
[clears throat]
I will um and then it goes on that I
[33:08]
will invoice that's not changed but the
only only change is that
[33:13]
» just the amount. Yeah.
the same.
[33:23]
» Anything else?
>> I think Robin worked on that to get the
[33:28]
numbers to them. So,
>> this is a this is a calendar year 27
[33:35]
contract. Is that correct?
>> So, I don't think it's a it's not set up
[33:39]
to be a calendar year.
>> It's not. probably should revisit it
[33:44]
because that the salary changes every
year. So,
[33:49]
» well, and it just says 50% and then I
So,
[33:52]
» I guess that would cover it.
>> That would cover it, I guess. And they
[33:55]
did agree with um what we sent them,
>> Jill and and I put together and we
[34:02]
worked with Anthony on the salary and
benefits and all that stuff. So, and we
[34:08]
sent it to them and they agreed to pay
half. So, it's
[34:11]
» I think if it's that language, we should
[34:18]
» and then I'll make sure that I get that
out to you guys once I get the final
[34:22]
agreement all of you how much
>> it'll be.
[34:28]
» Yeah.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
[34:30]
» Change with Do
>> you have any thoughts? It's
[34:33]
[clears throat]
>> it's gonna however their salary
[34:35]
increased is it's going to increase by
the same amount. Okay.
[34:40]
Yeah, judge section 22 in that agreement
says that if as if it changes the salary
[34:47]
should change.
>> Okay.
[34:48]
» Or be based on their salary, their base
salary and if it changes the this
[34:54]
changes.
[34:57]
» I'll move that we approve theou of the
school resource officers MSD Warren
[35:01]
County in Warren County.
>> Second that
[35:05]
second. All those in favor say I. I. I.
post.
[35:18]
All right. Uh
and you want to talk about that?
[35:26]
» But I got
one page.
[35:30]
» That's all she sent me. That one page on
it. It does say that there's no rightway
[35:36]
needed. Yeah. Um,
>> he just asked me to Does he send it to
[35:42]
you you guys as well or just
>> I have I sent this I sent
[35:47]
» So he just asked for it to be signed and
sent back to him and um I looked at it
[35:54]
and I didn't see anything
>> sign it does say on there no right away
[35:58]
was needed.
>> Where do you sign it?
[36:01]
» Maybe pass it down.
I sent it
[36:06]
right away to build that new bridge.
>> Just end says okay.
[36:12]
» Just saying.
>> They're saying that it's Yeah, that is
[36:16]
» we sign it.
>> I mean, I can get more clarification for
[36:20]
it if you want me to.
>> In this case, Zach.
[36:24]
» Oh, okay. Yeah. Just show us the
location of it. agree to
[36:30]
» um
[36:33]
» it's a plan. It's the bridge. No, yeah,
it says bridge plans.
[36:41]
» I thought you would have sent the plans
over. Let's let me clarify this.
[36:45]
» Yeah, I mean they
we've seen the plans anyway. I mean,
[36:50]
we've had them for a year,
>> right?
[36:54]
So maybe we never signed off on them.
>> Maybe
[36:57]
» that's why you only sent this page.
>> Yeah, it's just Yeah, because the
[37:02]
signature is on the bottom. Yeah.
>> Oh, yeah.
[37:07]
» Yeah, there you go. There's a signature
lines.
[37:11]
» Yeah,
>> I'll clarify it. I'll bring it back on
[37:14]
the 21st and we'll But I'm sure that's
what it is that he sent us the plans.
[37:19]
We've had the plans for Yeah. And we've
never signed off on it.
[37:28]
Yeah. What I say? Is there anything we
can't sign off on today?
[37:31]
» No. In my mind, no. Because we we've all
seen the plans.
[37:35]
» We all know.
>> Yeah.
[37:38]
» Oh, I don't know. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. I
don't know. We need a motion or
[37:41]
whatever. I'd say I I'd make make a
motion that we are in agreement that
[37:47]
there's no uh uh no rightway required to
build a new bridge and that uh we we
[37:53]
approve this and so that we don't risk
holding up this thing. [laughter]
[37:59]
So
>> yeah, this gets out
[38:05]
moved by Craig, second by John. All
those in favor say I. I
[38:16]
» All right. Old business.
[38:26]
» Um, I don't have any old business. John,
Craig,
[38:31]
» uh, I didn't have anything. Um,
[38:36]
uh,
[38:44]
I had
um
[38:48]
I think I there there's an expenditure
from wheel tax.
[38:53]
What What are we paying out of that?
We're going through the things that was
[38:57]
expended.
>> We pay we you want we pay all of the uh
[39:01]
towns the towns have
>> that's just paying them back out. We
[39:05]
didn't actually
>> we bring all the money in and then we
[39:07]
have to disperse it out. Yeah.
>> Yeah. But we didn't spend any of our
[39:10]
money. We were just dispersing. Okay.
Okay. I just didn't remember spending
[39:14]
any of that. So I was wondering what
what and your amount also the county's
[39:20]
amount also gets dispersed out because
everything comes into a fund and then
[39:26]
that money then has to all come out of
that fund and be dispersed and then your
[39:29]
money goes into your county uh wheel tax
fund. just 4924.
[39:37]
» So 6020 goes to 4924.
>> Correct.
[39:41]
» Okay.
>> Our portion
[39:43]
» then the towns. It's just the towns,
right? Is that right? Yeah.
[39:48]
» Wasteport's only one that
heard. All three. All three.
[39:52]
» All three.
>> Yeah. Okay.
[39:56]
Okay. All right. That's just question
four.
[39:59]
» West Lemon. West four. West Lemon State
Line. Pine Village.
[40:06]
» Sorry.
>> State Line.
[40:09]
» I was just agreeing on the three and I'm
like
[40:10]
» I wonder how much
>> each I mean state probably getting very
[40:15]
much
>> very very little amount.
[40:17]
» Yeah. Yeah.
>> But like Williamsport ballpark. How much
[40:21]
have they gotten so far do you think?
>> Oh gosh. I have no idea. Is she
[40:26]
» I don't remember. Varies every month.
>> Yeah. On where people get their license,
[40:31]
where they live, you know. Yeah. Such.
>> Um, but it's on your printouts, too.
[40:37]
Every every uh every month.
>> Yeah.
[40:41]
» We have to do it by the 20th of the
month.
[40:44]
» So, only vehicles that are registered in
the town of Williamsport portion of the
[40:50]
or is it just the whole pie? A portion
goes to the town.
[40:56]
» Oh, you're right. The whole pie is
divided up by how many?
[41:00]
» Road miles. Road miles, right?
>> Pretty sure it's right. I don't know.
[41:07]
» Pretty sure it's road miles.
>> Yeah,
[41:10]
» that's why we get the largest portion
and then lays for it and on down.
[41:15]
» So, yeah, the towns are getting
>> wood for sure.
[41:18]
» Southern got like 500 or something.
>> Yeah. Not very much.
[41:21]
» Yeah.
>> Yeah.
[41:26]
» Yeah. I was just wondering how that
went.
[41:27]
» It's been a while since we set that up.
It's a quite the
[41:32]
lovely pain, but it's it's okay.
>> Hours and hours a month for that thing
[41:39]
a lot. But hopefully hopefully it works
out good.
[41:43]
» Yeah,
>> seems to be
[41:49]
» into the county portion. just into the
county
[41:52]
» or the county share as of whatever
whenever today we'll say we've the
[41:59]
county has received $127,3246.
[42:03]
» So just the people like that live in
state lines
[42:08]
goes to state lines.
>> No, I think it's based on so
[42:12]
[clears throat] all the money goes into
one pool,
[42:14]
» right? And then the state would have a a
algorithm or
[42:21]
I don't know whatever you want to call
it spreadsheet that
[42:24]
» spreadsheet. That's how I was trying to
open it.
[42:25]
» Based that based the distribution on
each town's lane miles. So how many
[42:31]
miles of road each town has. So state
line would probably be like 0.1% of our
[42:37]
lane miles.
>> Yeah. Yeah. They maybe have mile and a
[42:39]
half of road or something. That's what
they get saved for. And then the rest
[42:43]
goes into the count
>> other than the other counts. Yes,
[42:48]
» it is by mileage.
>> Populations on here as well. My computer
[42:54]
is extremely so slow.
[42:59]
Oh
[43:02]
um
so the distribution is based upon 80% of
[43:09]
the [clears throat] the population
amount and then 20% basis of road and
[43:14]
street mileage. So it's actually uses
both. So Warren County gets 64.94%
[43:20]
Pine Village gets 2.51%.
State Line gets 1.42,
[43:26]
West Leman 8.03,
Williamsport 23.1
[43:32]
making 100%.
>> Great.
[43:36]
Can you forward me that
>> that's by population?
[43:38]
» Is that a spreadsheet? Is that in the
name?
[43:40]
» Spreadsheet
every 127. Is that based on January one?
[43:46]
Oh,
>> there's two.
[43:47]
» Oh, yeah. That's from Yeah.
>> And then you have the mileage
[43:51]
percentage. That's that was just
population.
[43:55]
The mileage percentage would be 95.22 to
the county. Pine village.26
[44:02]
state line.55
West Lebanon 1.34
[44:06]
Williamsport 2.63. And it uses both of
those percentages to come up with what
[44:12]
is dispersed out. But yes, I can send
that to you.
[44:15]
» Thank you.
>> And it's an 8020 split, too. So it's
[44:19]
» Yeah.
Yeah, it's quite the quite the
[44:24]
spreadsheet.
>> Yeah, [laughter]
[44:26]
» I'll remember to send it to you.
>> Okay, thanks. Yeah,
[44:35]
» we can disperse together.
>> Okay. Anything else, guys? We'll move to
[44:39]
elected official department head
John Highway
[44:47]
Health Department.
[44:52]
I sent you all email with attachments,
but I will hand out as well.
[44:58]
So, first, Ashley Marshall is our new
employee, health educator, and nurse.
[45:03]
So, I brought her to introduce her. This
is Kelly Jenkins, our Purdue Pharmacy
[45:06]
fellow. Um, the first thing in your
packet is we would like to apply for a
[45:11]
grant for $7,865.
It will be for welcome baby supplies,
[45:17]
safe sleep, the pack and plays and
sheets, um life jackets and swim lessons
[45:21]
for next summer for the pool.
Um it's a state department of health
[45:27]
grant that we were sent that we're
eligible to apply for.
[45:37]
We currently pay for all these things
out of Health First Indiana funds. Um
[45:40]
we've depleted all lines this year.
in those areas. Well, we didn't do life
[45:46]
jackets or some lessons. That's
something new we want to add
[45:49]
» since the pool open. That's a great
idea.
[45:52]
» Yeah.
[45:57]
» Mhm.
>> Would it cover the lessons themselves or
[46:01]
would it
>> It would cover 25 kids um lessons.
[46:05]
» Okay, cool.
>> Wow, that's cool.
[46:07]
» Yep. We talked to Vicki. I think kids go
um once a week for a month and so we can
[46:13]
cover 25 kids. We budgeted in the grant
for
[46:17]
She's also doing another swim lesson
day, but we're going to use some of our
[46:20]
other funds to help kids get to that
day, not up out of this grant. That way
[46:25]
we can try and get everybody there to
[46:29]
» Good idea.
>> Yeah. I guess if you need a motion, I
[46:34]
had a motion to approve uh uh
pursuing his grant.
[46:41]
» Second.
>> Yeah. Moved and seconded. All those in
[46:44]
favor say I.
>> I.
[46:47]
» The next thing in your packet is the 988
signs and that is Kelly's initiative. So
[46:50]
I'll let you let her tell you a little
bit about that.
[46:54]
» So the Warren County Health Coalition is
proposing to um install about 10 to 20
[47:00]
98 um suicide and crisis line signs
throughout Warren County. Um, this
[47:07]
initiative is mainly focused on
increasing awareness of the crisis line
[47:13]
um and to strengthen suicide prevention
efforts throughout the county. We did
[47:18]
reach out to the county coroner um the
county parks board chair as well as
[47:24]
niches and they have all expressed their
support of this initiative.
[47:30]
The signs themselves will be
geared from uh the state. So it they are
[47:37]
managed through um FSSA and DHMA.
So we will cover the costs if any
[47:44]
through the health department.
[47:50]
» Just need permission to put them up then
I guess.
[47:52]
» Say that again.
>> Just need permission to put them up, not
[47:55]
not to purchase them.
>> Correct. Yes.
[47:58]
» Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
The county corner did identify um 43 and
[48:03]
61 as potential um spots as there were
two um deaths there year to date. Um and
[48:11]
then we would work with the highway
department in installing those and
[48:15]
potentially other locations.
[48:20]
» Is this number already out of the
school?
[48:22]
» Yes.
[48:26]
» And that's our billboard right now, too.
and not against 988.
[48:33]
» Did not know about 988.
>> They can kids can text it. Um, adults
[48:38]
can text it. They get help right there.
They can tell them where to go. Um,
[48:42]
» okay.
>> We're really trying to push it since the
[48:45]
suicide rates have roads in all
counties.
[48:53]
» Yeah. I'll I'll move we give approval to
the health department to uh put what
[49:00]
[clears throat] is it said 10 to 20
>> yes sir
[49:03]
» around the county for 988 suicide
prevention line
[49:08]
» second
one. [laughter]
[49:11]
» All those in favor say I.
>> I
[49:16]
thing in your packet is the preparedness
trailer. Um, so we would we currently
[49:22]
have a trailer that is uh twofold to be
pulled. Um, the FEP grant, it's filled
[49:29]
with supplies we have to buy if we're
going to have an emergency. So flooding,
[49:32]
tornadoes, um, other counties could call
on us to help. Um, so for instance, our
[49:38]
trailer is filled with tables and chairs
and stansions to run any kind of um,
[49:42]
line through. There's nursing supplies
in there. um
[49:47]
cones um because we can only spend that
money on certain things. And so when we
[49:53]
got our new pot of money, we decided
that we thought we could purchase a new
[49:57]
trailer to fill because we're only
growing. So in our health department, we
[50:01]
have a generator. We have a walkthrough
tent that we have nowhere to go. They're
[50:04]
just in our building because we're also
lacking storage. So um these both of
[50:11]
these things would fit on that trailer.
This trailer has an area for the
[50:13]
generator. Um, I also know em we could
partner with EMA because they are
[50:17]
looking at a trailer this size as well.
This could turn into a command center
[50:21]
where we could partner together. Um,
that's why it's so large. No, we do not
[50:26]
have a vehicle to pull it. Um, we would
partner the hospital has a truck if we
[50:31]
needed to partner with them to help us
pull it. We could talk with the highway
[50:35]
to help us pull it and if we needed if
it's an e situation, Robert has a
[50:39]
vehicle that's large enough to pull this
trailer. Um, so that's why we went with
[50:44]
the trailer. Um,
>> you think a Taho a half ton's not big
[50:49]
enough to pull it? You think?
>> I personally don't know.
[50:53]
» I would say the 14,000 lb capacity
trailer.
[50:58]
[clears throat]
I would say probably it would any any
[51:03]
effect that it needed to get there. So,
[51:08]
so the way we're setting up the trailer,
um, this one's going to have
[51:14]
the generator unit in it. It's going to
have a firebox in it. So, as soon as we
[51:19]
could get the site, we also, this last
with the last budget, we purchased a 13
[51:24]
by 26 popup tent that could be a
drive-thru vaccination, a warming
[51:29]
station. I mean, we can we have fans
that we can cool. So, this with the
[51:36]
partnership of anything. If this
trailer, if we needed assistance to
[51:39]
people and we needed a large capacity
where we could get several people in, we
[51:44]
could hook up this trailer probably
within 30 to 45 minutes. We could have a
[51:48]
tent up, generator running, lights. We
have tower lights that we have. I mean,
[51:54]
we can provide some serious shelter for
people in a hurry with the way we're
[51:59]
setting this trailer up. We're putting
it'll be when we take the tent and
[52:04]
things out, we can make it, you know,
it'll be we can have CS in it, shelter,
[52:09]
and all different types of stuff
>> where you can store it at.
[52:15]
I'm kind of thinking that we would just
put it on the farthest side underneath
[52:20]
the awning there at the health office
because that way we would be able to
[52:25]
access it because with the smaller
trailer um to go do the smaller
[52:30]
functions at the park program and things
like that if we needed to. We could we
[52:34]
could just basically move our things in
and out as we needed it because we do
[52:39]
vaccinations at the school mostly. We
take the portable refrigerators and
[52:43]
freezer with us. This could be something
that um we could just use the smaller
[52:48]
trailer with behind our vehicle to
utilize for everyday use. We can really
[52:54]
it's going to free us up a little bit
having the larger trailer for the
[52:59]
emergencies.
>> Yeah.
[53:03]
» Yeah. just for he said a 14,000lb uh
load capacity and and so I went to F-150
[53:10]
website and and some years F-150 says
it's 14,000 some years it's 135 maximum
[53:19]
trailer weight you know so it's you know
yeah it's
[53:26]
» you know anyway it's
>> Hey Johnny
[53:29]
» yeah you could hook it on a half ton get
it to waste if you needed to but it's
[53:33]
probably not.
Yeah.
[53:35]
» So, in the preparedness part going out
with the LAP local area planning and the
[53:42]
district 4 planning that we have a
partnership with um like Lacy mentioned
[53:47]
this we haveous with the surrounding
counties that we are you know we are
[53:53]
supposed to respond and we have
everyone's list of what they have
[53:58]
mountain typic I mean statewide is what
it's basically used for. So with us with
[54:06]
some of the things I've seen out in
different meetings in different
[54:09]
counties, I think Lacy and I have had
good communication and we've got three
[54:14]
different we've reached out to three
different companies. Two companies have
[54:18]
actually got back with us. Another
companies that they custom build these
[54:23]
type of trailers. They don't offer the
generator package, but they offer like
[54:28]
it would have portable desks that would
flop down, things like that. Uh with the
[54:33]
etrack in this, we can definitely make
it as soon as we pull things out, we are
[54:38]
going to have fold down where we have
the benches and stuff in it. So we can
[54:44]
easily set up any type of thing. You
know, it's unimaginable what can happen,
[54:52]
but when it does happen, it'd be nice to
be ready.
[54:56]
» This is the same size trailer that we
had at the B County Health Department.
[55:02]
How did you pull it there?
>> Um Steve Hall would pull it if we needed
[55:06]
to pull it or the high the Fountain
County highway came and pulled it when
[55:09]
we because we had to move it over here
for the CO vaccination clinic. Um we the
[55:14]
our trailer went to Purdue when I did a
mass measles. Um when measles was at
[55:18]
Purdue, we pulled our trailer up there
and helped Tiffany County and Fountain
[55:20]
County Highway pulled it for us. Those
are the only two things that I've had to
[55:25]
do. I'm [laughter] hoping there's
nothing. Sorry, co again. I'm out.
[55:31]
I won't last another one. [laughter]
It's too much. Too much for me.
[55:37]
» You were younger then.
>> I don't cannot do it. Was too much. I I
[55:42]
really love my job, but I'm not doing
that again. [laughter]
[55:46]
» I will shelter in place at my home for
good.
[55:50]
Not doing it again.
>> And this will be paid for from you said
[55:55]
from the f funds. So everything would be
covered with that pot of money that we
[55:58]
get. And then we would use the leftover
funds to buy it because we don't have
[56:02]
CS. We don't I mean but we're just out
of space like and they're like what are
[56:05]
you gonna spend this money and I'm like
well we don't have anywhere to put
[56:07]
anything. So we're done buying supplies
to hold a any kind of disaster area
[56:13]
because we don't have anywhere to put it
>> so this would help.
[56:16]
» So that's 1159.
>> So I was going to say which funds?
[56:20]
» 9775 is Yep.
[56:25]
And we do have extra money sitting there
because we're really good at that.
[56:30]
[laughter] So,
>> we will spend some of that money on
[56:34]
supplies
[56:37]
» according to this. So, it won't cover
it.
[56:41]
» What won't cover what?
Oh, we're we would our new pot of money
[56:45]
is 25,000. Okay.
>> So, that will cover the trailer. Yep.
[56:48]
And we'll have excess to buy other
things.
[56:50]
» Okay.
>> Like just the supplies we need to
[56:51]
update. Yeah. Right. You have to invoice
for We would have to send the trailer
[56:55]
invoice to them. They would send the
money.
[56:57]
» Yeah. It's a
>> it's a process. What's in that fund
[57:01]
right now is just what's left over that
we've invoiced for that we haven't
[57:04]
spent. So, we send some invoices in for
just regular nursing supplies. Um other
[57:10]
supplies that we need. We just haven't
bought them yet. So, the money is just
[57:13]
sitting in that line.
[57:17]
» And that money comes from the state.
>> Yes.
[57:19]
» Yes.
>> But it's not a It's a actually
[57:22]
» grant. It's a No,
>> it's just another like
[57:27]
pass through,
>> right? Just like a IDOH preparedness
[57:30]
fund
>> that we and we have to like there's a
[57:33]
contract and we can only spend it on
preparedness things
[57:38]
like it there. It's restrictive
>> PHP.
[57:43]
Yes.
>> I don't have it in front of me. Yeah.
[57:46]
[laughter] that we allow the health
department to go ahead and purchase the
[57:50]
the van or van the trailer
supplies that they need.
[57:55]
» I'll second that.
>> Second.
[57:59]
I
>> I
[58:13]
» um first of all, good news. I have a
check for $47,900.
[58:20]
That is a refund. It's basically unused
ready 1.0 childcare money that the
[58:24]
county paid out. So, I was able to took
me a little while. I tracked it down.
[58:29]
» Thank you so much for working hard on
that.
[58:32]
» Oh, yeah.
[laughter]
[58:34]
» So, and we weren't the only county that
did not really want to do the AC.
[58:38]
Apparently, everybody else say felt the
same way. So, yeah. So, we are in good
[58:42]
company. Yeah. So, um uh so that's so
ready.1 is done. Um except for the
[58:48]
joint. I'm I am I met with Julie Barry
last week to make sure that I understood
[58:52]
all the data I needed to get. Um and um
I've already reached out to Tim Mcomes
[58:57]
at joint get that data. Um so my plan is
to have it ready and finished by October
[59:02]
one. Um it's not due till the end of
December but by getting it done early
[59:06]
that way if there's any issues won't
have any issues. Um so there's that. Um
[59:11]
for ready 2.0 um Williamsport Park
infrastructure we have turned everything
[59:15]
in. Um we're still that was supposed to
be they were supposed to get back to us
[59:19]
months ago. So I talked to Julie find
out what the deal is. Um, so because of
[59:24]
the IEDC prior issues, they now have to
have everything run through Ernston
[59:28]
Young. Then they examine everything with
a bind to home. And so this is causing a
[59:32]
backlog of months and months and months.
So anyway,
[59:37]
just the hurry up and wait. So that's
what we're doing. We're just waiting. So
[59:40]
that's all that there's there was that
um for the falls. Um I don't know if you
[59:45]
all knew this, but they're looking at to
um we're getting some pricing on to
[59:49]
finish some earth and beams between
where the gravel um path ended and the
[59:55]
stairs begin. So, and that should be
done hopefully before winter. But
[1:00:00]
anyway, so that's with that. Um okay. Um
just as a reminder, this Thursday um is
[1:00:06]
the ribbon cutting for the reserve at
Eagle Shore at the Otterbin Lake. Um,
[1:00:12]
also this afternoon, um, the Kiraag,
they're going to meet with my office.
[1:00:16]
Um, just let you know that I've been
working with them to look at potential
[1:00:21]
aggra businesses that could, um, develop
the site out in West Lebanon that one
[1:00:25]
point is look going to be an ethanol
plant. Um, so they're meeting with me
[1:00:29]
this afternoon to give us, um, an
analysis of what type of aggra
[1:00:32]
businesses and will be aggra businesses
that would fit well there. So, not that
[1:00:36]
anything's coming. It's just this would
it's going to help our office determine,
[1:00:40]
you know, where we should focus our
efforts
[1:00:44]
and more
>> on the tip in the tip area.
[1:00:47]
» Correct. Yep. It's in the tip area. Yep.
Yep. Um for the BR survey, just again
[1:00:52]
want to encourage businesses to complete
that. We were at about a 10% 10%
[1:00:56]
completion rate. Um I'd like to get up
obviously that higher. Um again, people
[1:01:01]
are at couple every single week. Um,
still just to let you all know for the
[1:01:06]
um for the county question that I asked
about, you know, what their perception
[1:01:09]
was. Still good. We've had a couple that
had some comments, but overall still
[1:01:14]
still good. Um, so right now we're
working on as those come in, we're
[1:01:18]
working on validating addresses um and
to create a business directory. So my
[1:01:23]
goal is to have that done before the end
of the year. So, um, uh, starting this
[1:01:28]
month, um, we're partnering with the
Warren County Learning Center to create
[1:01:32]
a program called Warren Works. Warren
Works is going to be a once a month
[1:01:36]
seminar, um, for businesses, employees,
um, or andor supervisors um, better
[1:01:42]
networking um, networking and
educational um, through the BRE surveys.
[1:01:46]
That was one thing that came through
loud and clear that employees need
[1:01:50]
training as far as how to be, you know,
the employee that everyone wants to
[1:01:54]
keep. Um, don't want to say good
employee. I think all employees are
[1:01:57]
good. I think some employees just have
not had as much experience as others.
[1:02:00]
So, these seminars are going to help
with some of those skill sets that maybe
[1:02:04]
some workers maybe not have had
opportunity to learn. Um, this month
[1:02:08]
it's going to be September 21. It's
going to be about marketing because
[1:02:11]
that's also the came through loud and
clear that that's probably the biggest
[1:02:14]
need that our businesses in the county
need is help with their marketing. So
[1:02:19]
that'll be the first one. Um and then
November is going to be know your
[1:02:22]
numbers, business finance made simple.
Um so our plan is trying to use as many
[1:02:26]
local um educator and experts that we
can to teach these seminars. Um so for
[1:02:31]
September I'm teaching the marketing
one. Um we don't have any for no October
[1:02:35]
yet. Lisa is looking for someone, but on
November, we're looking to get my
[1:02:38]
Hutchinson. So, those be um through
every month. Um okay. Um I've also
[1:02:44]
partnered with the Williamsport Library
and Artists in Pine Village um to apply
[1:02:48]
for a grant through the state arts
association. They have an opening for an
[1:02:52]
art grant for the county. So, we've
applied for that and we won't know till
[1:02:56]
the end of December if we get that or
not. Um if we get it's going to be
[1:02:59]
countywide. Um, and it's going to help
people create, I know it sounds crazy,
[1:03:03]
but life-sized puppets. And there'll be
actually a parade in Pine Village and
[1:03:07]
going to be the first one in the state.
Um, they've done it in Cincinnati and up
[1:03:11]
in Wisconsin, and it actually created
huge amount of um, activity um, food
[1:03:16]
trucks and all sorts of stuff. So
anyway, um, the arts federation is
[1:03:21]
actually very excited about the idea.
So, we'll see. I'm also meeting with
[1:03:25]
Tisha Lee um, through Ready 2.0 arts
grant. um they did get a pot of money to
[1:03:30]
spend on Warren County for arts
projects. So I'm taking the initiative
[1:03:34]
and meeting with her to talk about maybe
some projects versus them just deciding
[1:03:39]
for us what we they think that maybe we
should have. So anyway, I'm doing that.
[1:03:44]
Um I've also met with state line um city
um a new town board member and the clerk
[1:03:50]
um the um Oaker grants coming out for
planning grants um particularly for
[1:03:55]
wastewater. Um, I don't know if you know
this, but State Line has some sewage
[1:04:00]
issues and some water issues. And so,
we're going to meet with them to see if
[1:04:04]
we can't get a planning grant to see,
you know, what all of that entails. Um,
[1:04:08]
and then also on September 22nd, I'm
meeting with West Lebanon um, town
[1:04:13]
officials and some citizens to talk
about grants for some of their empty
[1:04:17]
town lots. So, anyway, so I've been
busy, [laughter]
[1:04:22]
say the least. Um, any questions about
anything?
[1:04:26]
Thank you. Okay. Yeah, no problem.
>> Thank you.
[1:04:34]
» I don't have anything. Uh, if you
haven't noticed,
[1:04:37]
we moved the final two tacos. So,
probably hopefully stop getting phone
[1:04:42]
calls about what we're doing with them.
>> Yeah, we finally moved those. So, that
[1:04:47]
that completes the five exchange for the
five lease vehicles we have. So,
[1:04:55]
Yeah, I think I get an email when they
sell them. [clears throat]
[1:04:58]
» Okay.
>> So, they sell them and then they come
[1:05:01]
get them. I guess that's
>> uh
[1:05:05]
honestly I don't know. They wait till
they sell them and then they come get
[1:05:09]
them.
>> Yeah.
[1:05:11]
So they came last week and picked those
remaining two up.
[1:05:17]
I don't have
[1:05:25]
» Hi. [laughter]
[1:05:30]
» Oh yeah.
[1:05:41]
Okay,
we have several things going on
[1:05:44]
actually. Do you want to do your
commissioner meeting schedule first?
[1:05:48]
» Sure.
>> We move on to anything else?
[1:05:49]
» No.
>> Okay.
[1:05:54]
» Everybody look it over. And
the only thing I didn't put on here were
[1:05:59]
the UBOS's, but we'll set those as we
go. Right. Okay. So,
[1:06:09]
and we basically followed the our normal
that we always do.
[1:06:14]
» That's a problem. We'll realize it when
we get to it. [laughter]
[1:06:18]
» True.
[1:06:22]
» Yeah. Because I don't have any of our
meetings, doctor association meetings.
[1:06:26]
That's the only thing that was our
hiccup last year. We had to change some
[1:06:29]
things, but everything else looks pretty
good. So,
[1:06:36]
for next year's commission meetings.
[1:06:40]
» Thank you.
>> Second. All those in favor say I.
[1:06:43]
» I post.
>> And I'll get those all out to the uh
[1:06:47]
office holders, too. Um,
we have state board of accounts here
[1:06:53]
currently auditing us and they began
oh goodness
[1:07:01]
couple weeks ago and they should
probably be finishing up in the next
[1:07:06]
couple weeks. They will not be here
today or tomorrow. Thursday. This week
[1:07:12]
will be the only day they're here. And
normally their work weeks are um Monday
[1:07:16]
through Thursday um 7 am to 5. So
everything seems to be going really
[1:07:22]
well. Um they've been great to work with
as they always are. It's nice to have
[1:07:28]
them come in so that we can bounce
questions we've had off of them, you
[1:07:34]
know. So that's really nice because you
always come up with something especially
[1:07:38]
when the statutes change so often
which affects us. So um working on that
[1:07:47]
kind of prepping for the um tax sale
which tax sale for everybody is October
[1:07:54]
2nd at noon. So keep an eye out for
that. It's kind of interesting. We've
[1:07:58]
got a lot of properties on at this time
thus far. I know some have rolled off,
[1:08:03]
but we still had or you know been paid,
but we still have several on there. So,
[1:08:08]
something to look at and keep an eye
out. Um,
[1:08:14]
it's really about all I have. Did you
guys have anything for me?
[1:08:21]
» Time's up. No, I'm kidding. [laughter]
[1:08:25]
» Yeah, I think we're good.
>> Okay, cool. Thanks,
[1:08:31]
Okay, moving on. We'll do public
comment.
[1:08:40]
» Close the meeting. Close the meeting.
[laughter]
[1:08:46]
» Before I start on this, I want to tell
you, I'm not here to
[1:08:51]
tick anybody off, but at the last
meeting, I left and went home and wrote
[1:08:56]
five pages of things. And there was a
young lady that came here last week and
[1:09:02]
or the last meeting and was talking
about SKH Heinix. Not here to talk about
[1:09:07]
that.
I think she was satisfied after Heather
[1:09:14]
answered her questions. But then what I
heard or maybe it wasn't was
[1:09:26]
it was said
[1:09:31]
no we need growth
but when anything is mentioned
[1:09:36]
everybody gets excited
[1:09:40]
and I do and I think this lady did and
was answered questions But it was almost
[1:09:46]
like we were told, "Don't get excited.
We'll answer your questions."
[1:09:52]
So,
to be real honest, we're talking about
[1:09:57]
growth in the area, and I'm not opposed
to it. Um, but it seems like we have to
[1:10:03]
ask certain questions every meeting to
find out what's going on. New dairy that
[1:10:10]
came in.
Nothing was ever mentioned in these
[1:10:15]
meetings about a new dairy until someone
asked the question and then it was like,
[1:10:22]
yeah, they're looking at a new a new
dairy up north or whatever. And
[1:10:27]
everybody had known it for months
because they'd already started to drill
[1:10:31]
wells.
[1:10:35]
And now there's a question about a third
dairy. And has anybody do you know where
[1:10:41]
they're talking about is that
just talk?
[1:10:47]
» The only thing I know is they they're
interested in [clears throat] a cving
[1:10:51]
facility
>> where
[1:10:53]
» they told me one location south of the
Warren I guess that fell through and
[1:10:58]
they last I talked to John Borman they
were still looking.
[1:11:02]
» So in the northwest corner of Indiana or
of Warren County?
[1:11:06]
» Yeah. Some somewhere. Yeah. convenient
for their, you know, their
[1:11:11]
network, I guess you could say. Yeah.
Because they currently cave them in
[1:11:15]
Warren and then they move them all over
the place. So, if they could have a
[1:11:19]
cabin facility, that would take them.
>> Is there any economic development in any
[1:11:24]
other area of Warren of Warren County
but the northwest corner?
[1:11:30]
» No.
I mean, is there something wrong with
[1:11:35]
the other three areas of the county?
We're get and I'm sorry,
[1:11:40]
» we've got trucks out there like crazy.
We've got dust out there like crazy. And
[1:11:46]
I'm not opposed to egg
development,
[1:11:53]
but it's getting to the point we've got
manure hoses running all over out there.
[1:12:02]
And if anybody wants to explain the
incident that happened in the last few
[1:12:07]
weeks about manure getting pumped into
the
[1:12:12]
Jordan Creek
and has that been taken care of
[1:12:18]
» told me that it was it was uh what's the
word
[1:12:23]
» contained on that Monday but it did rain
>> who called IDM
[1:12:31]
» as far as far as as far as I know is a
private citizen.
[1:12:34]
» Why didn't they They knew that it
happened. Why didn't the dairy call when
[1:12:38]
it happened?
>> Was Skyline was trying to
[1:12:42]
» Well, Skyline should have called.
>> Yeah, they should have.
[1:12:45]
» And so now you're talking about another
dairy out there.
[1:12:49]
Put it close to Pine Creek. Is anybody
opposed to having it close to Pine
[1:12:52]
Creek?
>> Well, for the record, they will not be
[1:12:54]
pumping manure through lines at the new
dairy. They've got this new system with
[1:13:00]
worms and worm casings and that whole
bed where they're going to spray the
[1:13:05]
manure on the casing on the worms and
this sort of leech field and then the
[1:13:11]
worms digest the dairy or the manure and
then that dairy comes in later and
[1:13:16]
harvests the worm casings which is then
that's what's used for fertilizer.
[1:13:22]
» So have there has there been any other
come
[1:13:28]
looking are you looking at or has any
other business come and talk to you
[1:13:33]
about maybe locating here in Warren
County?
[1:13:38]
Have you signed any NDAs in the last 6
months?
[1:13:42]
» Never signed.
>> Would you agree never to sign an NDA?
[1:13:46]
» We did that.
>> No, you did that for the data center
[1:13:49]
only.
>> Okay. All right. Never.
[1:13:54]
» You would never.
I'm not saying I would not ever sign
[1:13:57]
one. There would maybe be an instance
where there was a situation we needed to
[1:14:00]
and who knows what's what that situation
could be.
[1:14:07]
» No government officials should sign an
NDA. Private businesses is fine.
[1:14:15]
» What do you mean private business is
fine? private businesses. I mean, if
[1:14:19]
somebody wants to,
[1:14:24]
you should not sign any NDAs on behalf
of the of the of the county.
[1:14:29]
You know, private businesses are
conducted like that between individuals.
[1:14:33]
That's fine, but not a government.
[1:14:40]
Just so you know, it was six pages long
when I started this, and I'm trying to
[1:14:44]
keep it quiet, but it just seems to me
like we're getting overwhelmed out there
[1:14:52]
with dairies and
pig farms.
[1:14:58]
We've got the wind farm. Where was
carbon looking when they were out there?
[1:15:05]
Oh, Northwest. you know, it's the only
place that, you know, is suitable for
[1:15:09]
carbon.
I'm sorry. It's just it gets to the
[1:15:13]
point where it's too much and nobody's
looking
[1:15:17]
at any of the other three areas of the
county.
[1:15:21]
» It's population. I mean, it's population
density. That's why
[1:15:26]
it's one of the lowest
populated per square mile area in the
[1:15:33]
whole state. So that's why carbon was
out there. That's why wind was looking
[1:15:37]
out there. Who knows? Solar battery.
Maybe they were looking at some point
[1:15:41]
too. But as far as from where we're
sitting,
[1:15:44]
» no solar, no battery
>> ever. Not to me personally. No.
[1:15:49]
» Yeah.
[1:15:57]
» Anyone else?
[1:16:02]
» Did you have something?
Okay.
[1:16:06]
[laughter]
[1:16:09]
Check it. Move
>> to adjourn.
[1:16:14]
» Second.
>> All those in favor to adjourn say I.
[1:16:18]
» I.
[1:16:31]
If you want copies of that agreement,
[music]
