1
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:31,840
Good morning everybody. I'm going to

2
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,560
open up this Yuma County Board of

3
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,640
Commissioners formal session at 10:00

4
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,040
a.m. on June 18th. Commissioner King,

5
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,830
will you lead us in the flag salute?

6
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,280
» I pledge allegiance to the flag of the

7
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,880
United States of America, and to the

8
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,320
Republic for which it stands, one nation

9
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,640
under God, indivisible, with liberty and

10
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,910
justice for all.

11
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,720
Thank you for that.

12
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,390
>> Well.

13
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,040
» See is our calendar session. Is there

14
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,640
any changes?

15
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:09,680
>> Nope.

16
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,790
>> None. All right.

17
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,800
D is a presentation and we're welcoming

18
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,720
our

19
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,079
we're welcoming Alerica

20
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:22,080
to give us a presentation on the

21
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,560
broadband grant funding that we

22
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,960
distributed here. When was that? Year

23
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:26,960
and a half ago?

24
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,080
>> No, it was 2 years.

25
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,280
>> Almost 2 years ago.

26
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,320
>> Time gets by. Well, the project's

27
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,680
wrapped up and we're here to get a

28
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,560
presentation on it. Welcome.

29
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,280
>> Thank you.

30
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:40,440
So, I did make a little PowerPoint on my

31
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,240
laptop. Is there an easy way to share

32
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,040
that or do you want me to just kind of

33
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,560
go through it?

34
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,040
>> We will direct you

35
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,120
>> Sure.

36
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,000
>> to the lovely Bailey and K.

37
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,000
>> That'd be great. Yeah, do you

38
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,720
>> have So, do you have it on your

39
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,430
Perfect.

40
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:02,190
» Looks good.

41
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,440
Try to keep it short and sweet.

42
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,280
>> Sure.

43
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:06,680
>> Appreciate you coming out.

44
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,360
>> Absolutely. So, you guys

45
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:09,760
>> Oh, that looks familiar.

46
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,240
>> probably remember

47
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,280
uh

48
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:14,919
December of

49
00:05:14,919 --> 00:05:15,640
uh

50
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,120
year and a half ago, 18 months ago, we

51
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,040
decided we wanted to go fix

52
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,000
internet connectivity for about 300

53
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,720
households in Yamhill and uh

54
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,040
Oh, sorry.

55
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,120
Absolutely. So, about 18 months ago, we

56
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,680
all decided we wanted to fix internet

57
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,960
connectivity for about 300 households

58
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,760
that had

59
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,680
very poor service options.

60
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,880
So,

61
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,240
um

62
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,240
you go to the next slide. We had

63
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,919
uh

64
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:47,640
needed we we we had 24 months to deploy

65
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,760
uh

66
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,920
all the capital and and connect

67
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,080
everyone.

68
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,360
Got it done in 18 months, which we're

69
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,000
really excited about.

70
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,360
We wind up with

71
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,240
a little more underground fiber than we

72
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,040
expected in the beginning.

73
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,560
Underground is generally better because

74
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,520
less prone to storm damage. You guys

75
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,120
might remember the storm that came through the area a

76
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,680
few years ago and put a lot of the

77
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,560
aerial fiber on the ground.

78
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,200
So for that reason we we tried to if

79
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,360
there's a lot of tree cover, I go

80
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,160
underground with it.

81
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440
So we wind up with 131,000 ft of

82
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,360
underground fiber placed,

83
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,240
um, past all the 297 addresses that we

84
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,640
wanted to pass.

85
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:27,680
Um,

86
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,840
we had some significant

87
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:31,919
issues with

88
00:06:31,919 --> 00:06:34,960
fiber supply chain. Most of that due to

89
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,520
the BEAD grants starting to hitting in

90
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,919
other states.

91
00:06:37,919 --> 00:06:40,360
But fortunately, we have a great team in

92
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,919
procurement and they were able to

93
00:06:42,919 --> 00:06:45,760
do some things like driving to Colorado

94
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,320
to pick up spools of fiber to make sure

95
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,840
we we got it done quickly and

96
00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:51,800
efficiently.

97
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,280
So 100% of the permitting and

98
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:55,880
construction is complete and we're now

99
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:56,840
doing

100
00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:58,240
connecting customers and and doing

101
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,800
drops.

102
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,710
You can go to the next slide.

103
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,000
So this is just a kind of a a brief

104
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,000
overview of of kind of what got done.

105
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,040
A lot of vault set. That's just because

106
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,520
there's a

107
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,240
lot of main line required to put all

108
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,320
those

109
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:15,640
the people that were unserved were

110
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,240
unserved for a reason. They're they're

111
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,320
out in the middle of nowhere.

112
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,600
And so put 271 vaults in and had

113
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,760
20,000 ft of aerial strand as well.

114
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,600
So it's all energized and lit. The

115
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:31,760
first customer should be coming online

116
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,720
here in the next few days.

117
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,919
>> How many hookups did you end up with?

118
00:07:35,919 --> 00:07:36,880
>> Well,

119
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,590
um,

120
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:40,960
it's looking like we might wind up with

121
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,600
220.

122
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,800
Um, so uh you know, you never know until

123
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,920
you hook someone up. Uh there might be some people that drop out or

124
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,360
other people that add in, but um

125
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,200
uh right now 221 is the number that we

126
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,480
have uh

127
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,320
on the on the docket to do drops for.

128
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,960
>> Can you remind me what the cost of your

129
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,160
basic package was?

130
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,590
>> It's $59 a month.

131
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,790
I'll go to the next slide.

132
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:11,320
Um so the uh we have 85 that are that

133
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,200
are in the pipeline to get dropped um

134
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,720
hopefully in the next few weeks. Um

135
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,680
we're targeting the next 4 weeks for

136
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,760
those 85 drops. We're we're trying to

137
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:21,960
get them in the hopper as fast we can.

138
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,720
We'd really like to get all 221 done by

139
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,440
the end of summer, um but some of them

140
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,120
are are quite long.

141
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,560
Um so it it may be into September,

142
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,520
October before we get all of them done.

143
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:33,960
>> When you say quite long, just their

144
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,520
driveways are a long ways into like the

145
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:37,880
actual house that it needs to be hooked

146
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:38,760
up into or

147
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,919
>> Uh one of them is is over 4,000 ft long.

148
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:43,479
>> Folks.

149
00:08:43,479 --> 00:08:44,720
>> Yeah, so we're looking at some of those

150
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,160
going, "Well, that's going to take a hot minute." But um uh

151
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,360
yeah, the the 85 that we have that is in

152
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,040
the pipeline includes one that's 1,200

153
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,560
ft. So so we're going to be biting off a

154
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:55,839
couple of the long ones in the beginning

155
00:08:55,839 --> 00:08:57,080
to make sure we don't wait to the end to

156
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,240
get them all done.

157
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,240
Um we've been uh

158
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,520
keeping in contact with customers with

159
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,120
mailers. We've had four rounds of

160
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,760
mailers go out just to let all of the um

161
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:07,400
uh

162
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,640
the people know what's going on and

163
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,760
where we're at.

164
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,320
Um and that's been uh very well

165
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,720
received.

166
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,480
And um

167
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,680
just in the last few days we've

168
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:19,720
completed 13 drops. So we should be

169
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,000
turning those customers on in the next

170
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,510
week or two.

171
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,390
Next one.

172
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,160
So the budget went well. Um we had a

173
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,640
initial uh

174
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:38,440
budget of $3.6 million and it was $3.62 million. So uh um

175
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,120
very excited about that. Um there's

176
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,680
still going to be more cost incurred by

177
00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:43,520
Alyrica as we get these drops in in

178
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,240
place and and installs done, as

179
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,920
expected. Um but uh

180
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,120
the team did a very good job of

181
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,800
estimating costs and controlling costs.

182
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:53,760
Um

183
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,760
uh we had a lot of uh

184
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,120
panic moments as uh the costs were

185
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,520
rising from our our subcontractors and

186
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:01,920
the material costs were rising and had

187
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,160
to get creative with how we how we

188
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,880
control them, but I was very impressed

189
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,680
with how well the team did on that.

190
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:11,480
Um you can go to the next slide.

191
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,640
So,

192
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,440
we really appreciate you guys helping us

193
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,080
make this happen. Obviously, would not

194
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,320
have gotten these

195
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,960
the the connectivity options to these

196
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,560
people without you guys.

197
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:21,960
And so, really appreciate Yamhill's

198
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,240
support in this.

199
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,440
And um excited to get all the customers

200
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,230
online and and make their lives better.

201
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,960
» Thank you for that. Uh one of the things

202
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,120
I had brought up during this whole

203
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,720
conversation was the cost of broadband

204
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,200
and how we were pretty much restricted

205
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,960
to this being a broadband project. Uh I

206
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,320
had brought up what about Starlink? And

207
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,560
when you compare the cost of Starlink

208
00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:51,600
for rural customers for anybody compared

209
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,360
to it's what comes down to $12,000 per

210
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,640
hookup and that's not even and that's if

211
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,720
you get all 297.

212
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,440
Uh $12,000, $13,000 per hookup of

213
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,080
taxpayer money and then we had a couple

214
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,440
of million dollars just in the

215
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,600
assessment and the study to do this

216
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,560
before we handed it off. So, I I've

217
00:11:12,560 --> 00:11:14,360
always had concerns about the fact that

218
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,000
here was, you know, federal handout. I

219
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,920
just want this for the record as not an

220
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,640
indictment against Alyrica. You guys

221
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,240
have done a wonderful job in Polk

222
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:23,720
County. You did a great job here. You

223
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,960
did exactly what we asked you. But it

224
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,120
was like our we were hamstrung by you've

225
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,320
got you can't use Starlink and you can't

226
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,240
pay people to put in Starlink cuz it's

227
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,880
so much cheaper and it's excellent

228
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,040
coverage for those who live in the rural

229
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,200
areas. So, I just want for the record

230
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,440
sometimes these federal programs or

231
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,160
state programs just are just they don't

232
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,480
pencil out and they're not taxpayer

233
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,320
friendly, but everybody goes, "Woohoo,

234
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,000
you know, I got broadband." And now it's

235
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,440
you know, whatever, but thank you for

236
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,880
getting it done

237
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,000
under budget and on time. With that

238
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,120
being said.

239
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,120
>> Absolutely.

240
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,000
Anything else?

241
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,400
>> Thanks for coming and all the work you

242
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,040
did. And I know that um

243
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,920
you know, did and your team to nail down

244
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,520
that right on budget is pretty

245
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,040
impressive and with the added expenses

246
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,640
of having to travel to go get your

247
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,160
stuff, I think that's

248
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,000
really great. So, thank you. Appreciate

249
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:16,680
that.

250
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:18,720
>> Thank you. Thanks.

251
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,520
>> Can you guys email us that uh

252
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,360
presentation?

253
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:23,760
Thank you.

254
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:24,320
>> Thank you.

255
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,920
>> Appreciate you coming. Thank you.

256
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:31,630
>> Thank you.

257
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,760
» All right. This is our public comment

258
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,280
period. If there's anybody in the

259
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,200
audience, raise your hand. If you're

260
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,680
online, raise your virtual hand.

261
00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:43,870
If you'd like to give public comment.

262
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,200
» Chair, I want to respond to one of the

263
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,280
comments we received online. This was

264
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,800
from a gentleman who had some concerns

265
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,960
about the long lines at the waste uh

266
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:56,600
management um in Newberg and uh said,

267
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,080
you know, they've gotten an increase

268
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,960
over the last 15 years, but they haven't

269
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:01,640
increased their capacity. So, I

270
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,160
contacted Ashley Watkins and uh she is

271
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,920
with Yamhill County Planning. She got a

272
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,680
hold of Waste Management and Dave Huber

273
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:11,760
pointed out that there was a land use

274
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,560
application submitted to our planning

275
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:15,320
department and they're going to add

276
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,839
additional entrance lanes for the

277
00:13:16,839 --> 00:13:18,360
Newberg transfer station. So, I

278
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,680
responded to him and I think a lot of

279
00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:21,920
people are going to be very happy to

280
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,080
hear about that.

281
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,720
>> I think that the the lanes though, they

282
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:26,960
don't

283
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,000
take away from the 2 and 1/2 hours, but

284
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,520
just getting people off of Winooski. So,

285
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,520
there's still a hang-up with Waste

286
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,680
Management in their

287
00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:38,104
ability to

288
00:13:38,104 --> 00:13:39,280
>> [clears throat]

289
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,160
>> move people through. So,

290
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,880
>> Do we know how often there's a backup?

291
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:44,800
>> I don't know, but I

292
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,880
>> Very often. Especially weekends.

293
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,600
>> Yeah, but I think the fact that they're

294
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,520
increasing the capacity is really what

295
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,280
they can do. And beyond that, I don't

296
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,480
know what we

297
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,760
>> Look, this is something we're interested

298
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,000
in having a conversation about. We can

299
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,720
have them. They're more than happy to

300
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:00,960
come before if you can kind of give us

301
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,600
an update cuz I've

302
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:03,880
seen their

303
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,560
uh presentations before city councils

304
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:07,200
many a time, and I actually think that

305
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,560
there's mansion plans for

306
00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:10,240
uh

307
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:11,240
the

308
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,080
transportation. But let let me hear it

309
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:13,640
from them.

310
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,760
>> Yeah, Newberg talked about it this week,

311
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,720
and they had they were were this week at

312
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,840
their city council, and there was a

313
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,440
lengthy discussion about it. Um

314
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,040
Yeah, I mean, it they talked about 4

315
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,680
years ago putting in

316
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:26,320
a

317
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,200
compactor, and that hasn't happened yet.

318
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,360
So, I think that uh Newberg and Dundee

319
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,400
are both kind of pushing on

320
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:33,720
>> Mhm.

321
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,920
>> on um

322
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,600
Waste Management to make that happen

323
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,560
sooner rather than later. Um so, it's

324
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,280
not another 4 years to go. So,

325
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:44,600
yeah, I'm interested to see what happens

326
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,160
as garbage

327
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,000
changes with the closure of Coffin Butte

328
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,680
or

329
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,120
the denial of the

330
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,760
um conditional use permit for them. The

331
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,760
I think garbage prices will be going up

332
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,560
over the next as we've seen uh just in

333
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,440
the last few weeks, uh but over the next

334
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,120
few years, we'll we'll see more of it.

335
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,400
So,

336
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,440
>> Especially since our own landfill shut

337
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,040
down, which we we knew was going to

338
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,839
increase costs to you the the uh

339
00:15:09,839 --> 00:15:12,400
consumers, and also we've lost a million

340
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,520
dollars a year in tipping fees. So,

341
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,320
yeah, it's been an it's been an impact.

342
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,080
People don't understand it's got to go

343
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,880
somewhere.

344
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:19,360
>> It does.

345
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,000
>> Where is it going to go?

346
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,640
>> So, we interested in having them come

347
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,440
before us or is that the end of the

348
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:25,640
discussion?

349
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,480
>> I don't know what there is to add to

350
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,240
that.

351
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,360
>> I mean, the only thing could be is uh if

352
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,120
we need concerns addressed if we keep

353
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,120
getting comments about backups, we

354
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:35,760
probably need to figure out how often it

355
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,560
happens and if there is any plans for

356
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,320
expansion besides the uh new lanes, it

357
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,400
sounds like.

358
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,280
>> Yeah, I mean, I think that yeah, I I I

359
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320
think that Newberg is going to ask us

360
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,320
for some support. Um

361
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,840
just with the

362
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,160
Trying to remember exactly what with the

363
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,800
acute with uh

364
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,400
to allow them to be able to put in

365
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,320
um compactors and you know, with the

366
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,520
mentioned earlier the uh

367
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,960
closure of the incinerator um down

368
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,760
further south. So,

369
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:07,360
um

370
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,520
I think Newberg is going to be looking

371
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:09,960
to us for

372
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,000
some

373
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,360
help in that. So, maybe we would hear

374
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,440
from Newberg first and then what their

375
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,470
needs are.

376
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,880
And then

377
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,000
maybe Waste Management.

378
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,480
>> Who wants to drive that bus?

379
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:25,800
>> You want to go ahead and do that?

380
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,560
>> Okay. Sounds great.

381
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,160
We will wait to hear further from

382
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,000
Commissioner King on that.

383
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,880
Um up next is F department update. Uh

384
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,480
there was no other public comment.

385
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,040
Uh F is department updates, there is

386
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,600
none. G is work session, there's none. H

387
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,480

388
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,400
I would move approval.

389
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,120
Is there any further discussion?

390
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,160
>> None.

391
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,160

392
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,560
I. Motion passes unanimously. Thank

393
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:55,760

Applicant is Ray

00:17:17,439 --> 00:17:19,480
and Bernadine Markham.

404
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,640
I would move approval. Is there any

405
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:22,839
further discussion?

406
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:23,800
>> None.

407
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,280

and setting the appropriations and

414
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,720
levying taxes.

415
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,680
I would move approval.

416
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,600
Is there any discussion on this item?

417
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:51,240
>> None.

418
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,000
All those in favor signify by

419
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,800

>> Motion passes. Thank you.

422
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,680
>> And chair, before we move on, um

423
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,280
It's a good segue. I'm used to this

424
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,600
being further down on the agenda, so um

425
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,800
just uh another discussion. Um first I

426
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,280
want to express

427
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,720
um gratitude to the board

428
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,760
and to our budget committee members and

429
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,080
all the department heads and our

430
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,200
everyone involved with the budget

431
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:17,960
process. I know this is a very long

432
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,840
process that we go through that, you

433
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,080
know, our internal team start working on

434
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:23,880
this in October November.

435
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,080
>> It's pretty much never-ending now. You

436
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:25,680
can say that.

437
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,320
>> I can say that. That's it's year-round

438
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:27,800
for me.

439
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:28,720
>> For you.

440
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:29,960
>> Um

441
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,840
and uh I really want to appreciate you

442
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,320
know, I appreciate everybody's efforts

443
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,440
in getting this budget put together. Um

444
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,480
you know, it's a it's a challenging

445
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,000
process. Uh that being said, um I do

446
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,200
want to recognize and and just mention

447
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:44,160
to the board that we've had two

448
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,440
resignations from the budget committee.

449
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,360
So Jason Fields has resigned his

450
00:18:49,360 --> 00:18:50,880
position obviously because he'll be

451
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,040
taking office in January.

452
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,280
Um and then uh Greg Thoresgard also uh

453
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,840
gave me a resignation last week. Um

454
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,520
so we have two openings on the budget

455
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,880
committee and I wanted to talk briefly

456
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,480
about process. I'd like to

457
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:06,560
uh

458
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,480
open uh a recruitment for filling those

459
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,000
two late positions so we have them just

460
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,120
in case we ever need to convene the

461
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:17,040
board between now and next April. Uh

462
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,720
convene the budget committee and uh

463
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,320
I know in the past, you know, this has

464
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,080
been one of those committees that there

465
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,800
we do get a lot of interest. Budget

466
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,040
Committee and Planning Commission seem

467
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,520
to be the two that where we get the most

468
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,720
interest in applications.

469
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,200
And I just wanted to talk process um

470
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,000
with the board briefly before we move

471
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,520
too far away from the budget. So,

472
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,080
um what I'd like to do is post on the

473
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,360
website and that we do have two

474
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:44,320
vacancies and I'm basically looking for

475
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,720
feedback on how long you would like to

476
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,280
have that open

477
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,280
uh to to set a deadline for

478
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:52,880
applications, so then I can bring the

479
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,280
applications back before the board for

480
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:56,560
consideration.

481
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:57,320
>> Okay.

482
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,840
>> Could we say uh end of June, beginning

483
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,240
of July?

484
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,600
Um and then everybody spread the word.

485
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,480
>> To open or to close it?

486
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:06,320
>> No, in other words

487
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,040
>> To close it?

488
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,960
>> Keep it, you know, keep it open, post it

489
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,200
now, keep it open and then spread the

490
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,200
word and we've got it on the website and

491
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,480
then we're going to spread the word as

492
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,200
far as Do you have anybody that's

493
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,480
interested and then come back with the

494
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,840
applications and take a look at them.

495
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,360
>> So, that's two weeks, three weeks?

496
00:20:23,360 --> 00:20:25,800
>> So, until July 3rd.

497
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,520
Would that be a two-week period?

498
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,400
>> our next meeting after

499
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,520
>> July 2nd would be our next

500
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,880
>> July 2nd. And so, um we could do a close

501
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,320
date, which I was thinking kind of

502
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:39,800
giving it a little more than a two-week

503
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,080
period if we did it till July 3rd and

504
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,080
then on July 9th would be the formal

505
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,960
session that the applications you can

506
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,280
>> 5 p.m.

507
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,360
>> Okay.

508
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:51,680
>> And what I can do is um once that

509
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,680
deadline has come closed, I'll take all

510
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,280
the applications, I'll share it with

511
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,120
individual commissioners and then so

512
00:20:57,120 --> 00:20:58,760
that way you can review them and kind of

513
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,440
be prepared for the 9th on

514
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,800
for discussion and appointment.

515
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,200
>> While we're drawing attention to

516
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:06,960
openings on committees, can we go ahead

517
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,200
and make sure that we're up to date on

518
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:09,480
the others and maybe post them right

519
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,280
below that?

520
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:10,840
>> Can do.

521
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:11,200
>> Okay.

522
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:12,560
>> Yeah.

523
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,280
>> Might be a good opportunity to attract

524
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,760
some attention to the other ones.

525
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,400
>> Yeah, and at Northwest Seniors we're

526
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:18,720
looking for

527
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,360
consumer advisory and we always have

528
00:21:20,360 --> 00:21:22,560
those positions open. So, I know we've

529
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,240
taken it down because it's been up so

530
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,480
long, but we can put those two Northwest

531
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:27,680

00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,400

We'll do a review of all committees.

542
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,520
But I think for this one in particular I

543
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,160
was really wanting to cuz we'll set a

544
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,640
deadline um for the budget committee and

545
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,440

committee rosters and check in with

547
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,400
departments and then call attention to

548
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,320
those as well.

549
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:02,560
>> Okay. All right.

allowed by ORS 233

557
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,510
.680-685.

558
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,000
I would move approval of this. It's nice

559
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,560
to see we finally got this. I did not

560
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,120
think that it would be this long to kind

561
00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:30,560
of go back and forth between us and MDP

562
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:31,760
and

563
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,040
finally get this implemented, but I'm

564
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,550
glad to finally see it.

565
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,960
» I have a question before we You want to

566
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,160
read it first or

567
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,240
>> Yeah, so we have a motion, but we need

568
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,510
to do a first.

569
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:52,070
» Okay.

570
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:53,720
» Hearing none.

571
00:22:53,720 --> 00:23:17,270
>> Hey, hold on.

572
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,600
» Okay, in the matter of authorizing the

573
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:24,150
Yamhill County

574
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:25,840
Two Yamhill counties in there. The

575
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,640
Yamhill County commercial property

576
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,240
assessed clean energy program and

577
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,040
adopting the Yamhill County C-PACE

578
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,000
program code declaring an emergency and

579
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,550
setting the effective date.

580
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,760
» Is the effective date today?

581
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,600
>> If everyone votes for it, it'll be an

582
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,840
emergency and yes. But if not everybody,

583
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,560
then we have to wait the for the second

584
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,720
reading.

585
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:49,720
>> Commissioner Stirk, question.

586
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,040
>> had a question. Um, and I don't know if

587
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,640
this is for MEDP or for Kevin. Put you

588
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,880
on the hot seat here. They talk about

589
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,720
um, seismic being uh, one of the

590
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,560
categories that's eligible for

591
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,320
authorized by the statute in this bill.

592
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,280
And

593
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,520
have has anybody had discussions about

594
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,800
whether anybody's going to take

595
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,720
advantage of this for seismic cuz it's

596
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,520
so expensive and whether or not with the

597
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,160
applications or the interest that we've

598
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,440
had we've seen anything. I see some of

599
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,760
the a listing of things that this could

600
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,280
be authorized to pay for, but

601
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,040
uh, seismic being a really big ticket.

602
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,680
So, do we have any information on that?

603
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,680
>> Um, my name's Patty Herzog. I'm the

604
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,680
executive director for the McMinnville

605
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,120
Economic Development Partnership and

606
00:24:39,120 --> 00:24:41,320
partnering with uh, the county on this

607
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,640
program.

608
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,800
Um, seismic retrofits are an eligible

609
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,840
um, project under the the state

610
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,960
ordinance. And so, we haven't had any

611
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,800
interest in that yet, but the program

612
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,840
isn't fully established. So, we would

613
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,760
expect to see some of that. Um, there's

614
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,640
been four inquiries since uh we've

615
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,040
talked about this last in in January.

616
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,760
Um, and uh while they didn't speak to

617
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,600
the specifics of what they're doing, um

618
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,480
a couple of those uh inquiries had to do

619
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,080
with uh rehabilitation of buildings. So,

620
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,680
I would assume that would include some

621
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,800
seismic acti- seismic retrofitting as

622
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:25,840
part of that.

623
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,240
>> Yeah, as far as your outreach and

624
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,280
getting folks familiar with this

625
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,440
potential um opportunity,

626
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,520
how will you get that information out?

627
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,720
So, many of the of the, you know, people

628
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,040
just can't move forward because of the

629
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:39,560
seismic requirements.

630
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,320
>> Yeah. Um, we plan to to hold information

631
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,120
sessions. We'll have the information

632
00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:47,000
available on our website. We'll be

633
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,320
including it in the newsletter that we

634
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,120
have, sending it out to the county um

635
00:25:52,120 --> 00:25:55,200
broadly, and then we have uh quarterly

636
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,440
business leader forums, and so we'll be

637
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,760
getting the information out to folks and

638
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,480
addressing any questions as they come

639
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,040
up. Um, we I have been attending uh

640
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,560
regional C-PACE um collaborators group.

641
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,600
They just met yesterday,

642
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,360
um and that group meets every month. So,

643
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:15,080
uh

644
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:20,480
collaborating throughout the region to stay in alignment with what other

645
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,960
counties and jurisdictions are doing and

646
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,320
staying on top of uh any legislative

647
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,520
changes that may be coming, too.

648
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,640
>> Thank you. Thank you. I know in the

649
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,080
past, and Ken, I don't know if you can

650
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,320
remember, but when we tried to we talked

651
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,520
about this years ago, and the the board

652
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:38,880
at the time

653
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,200
majority of the board came to the

654
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,920
you know, understanding that this might

655
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,760
just be too much of a heavy lift for the

656
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,880
county, and I'm I'm not sure what

657
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,800
changed, but it seems like everything is

658
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,880
going to be okay on our end in terms of

659
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,560
covering our administrative costs, and

660
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,040
whether it's going to be too much for,

661
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,960
you know, the assessor or for any kind

662
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,240
of administration.

663
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,200
>> I think the original concept is we were

664
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,560
going to administer this program, and

665
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,480
the next agenda item is looking at

666
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,760
working with MEDP to administer the

667
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,200
program. So,

668
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,440
it's been a while since that that's what

669
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:11,280
I kind of recall.

670
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,920
>> Yeah, okay.

671
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,400
>> And cost recovery will be through the

672
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,800
application process up to a limit, but

673
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,640
the limit is fairly substantial. In

674
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,520
fact, I think it's changed while we've

675
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,760
gone through this process.

676
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,240
I think originally it was like 15,000,

677
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,200
but now it's 25,000.

678
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:26,920
Is that right, or

679
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,920
>> I believe our agreement says 15.

680
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,030
>> Okay. Okay.

681
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,440
» Yeah, I was just going to say I I spoke

682
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,960
with the the county assessor, and he

683
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,720
assures us this is not going to be a

684
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,040
major burden for his. It it's going to

685
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,320
be entered into the tax rolls similar to

686
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:43,800
any other

687
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,360
special assessment, which they already

688
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:46,920
do a substantial number of years. So,

689
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,880
it's it's just one more in an already

690
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,240
underway set of work for them.

691
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,520
>> Okay, good. All right, thank you. And

692
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,600
thank you for doing this

693
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,560
doing all the legwork. And Kevin, too.

694
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,240
>> Thank you, Commissioner.

695
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:01,560
>> Can you reach out to Don and let him

696
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,200
know that everything's going to be

697
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,160
hopefully in place after today, or or

698
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,760
let him know what your process is going

699
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,920
to be, because he's been emailing on a

700
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,040
monthly basis to see where we're at with

701
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,760
it. Yeah, hopefully he's been reaching

702
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,440
out to you, too, also, but

703
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,280
>> Yeah,

704
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,560
I just wanted to confirm on the fee

705
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,360
structure. Our current fee structure for

706
00:28:23,360 --> 00:28:25,680
this is 1%

707
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,920
with a minimum of 2,500 and a maximum of

708
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,120
15,000.

709
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:30,800
>> Okay.

710
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,560
>> The message to to folks that have

711
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,040
reached out has been this program is set

712
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,440
up for cost recovery

713
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,840
for the for what the program costs to

714
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:42,840
run.

715
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:46,640
Talking with other jurisdictions, those

716
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,200
fee structures have been going up

717
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,720
substantially.

718
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:52,760
So

719
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,960
we may want to revisit this

720
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,040
as as things move forward.

721
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,440
>> Okay.

722
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:58,520
>> Appreciate that.

723
00:28:58,520 --> 00:28:59,720
>> Yep, keep us posted.

724
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,440
>> Thanks for resurrecting this chair.

725
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,480
>> absolutely. I appreciate the time

726
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,190
Patty's put into it and

727
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:08,600
pushing it forward. So thank you.

728
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,080
>> Thank you. So we have to do a second

729
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,040
reading still.

730
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,560
>> And we're all agree that we can go into

731
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,920
second reading. Yeah, okay.

732
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,400
>> Um

733
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,040
one perfect Do we need to call for any

734
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,160
public comment as part of this process?

735
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:21,720
>> No.

736
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,400
>> It's legislative. But

737
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,920
if you do want to change the fees, it's

738
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,320
in the code. So you're going to have to adopt a new

739
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,560
ordinance if you want to change the

740
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,400

741
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:39,190

756
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:04,520
Perfect.

I would move approval. Is there any

766
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,000
further discussion?

767
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:26,880

matter of amending the Yamhill County

tax foreclosed property management and

774

disposition policy.

775
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:44,880
» You want me to go?

776
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:50,230
Uh this is something I proposed

777
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,320
a year ago.

778
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:53,640
Um

779
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,360
in response to House Bill 2089. Uh so it

780
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,560
updates our foreclosure policy to match

781
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,240
what's now required in statute.

782
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:03,000
Um

783
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:03,920
so

784
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,680
Yeah. It's just housekeeping.

785
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,120
>> interesting and uh how it's a double

786
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,480
process now for the auction.

787
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,240
>> Just on the auction portion of it. It

788
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,800
really covers a lot of different

789
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,160
avenues.

790
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,120
>> It does. It does. It's going to be a

791
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,840
I'll say it. It's a burden on the

792
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,240
government. Um

793
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,240
but it is what it is.

794
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,360
>> Question about about the um the auction

795
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,280
twice. It says regardless of the

796
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,560
properties uh real market value. But if

797
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,000
it does sell at auction, is it required

798
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,320
to

799
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,080
auction it again cuz it says all

800
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,760
properties will be auctioned twice

801
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,520
regardless of real market value.

802
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,280
And then it says

803
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,960
if it fails to sell at the first

804
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,360
auction, so if it's sold is there a

805
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:53,320
requirement to do a um another auction?

806
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:53,880
>> No.

807
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,560
>> So basically if it makes that real

808
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,440
market value threshold, does it have to

809
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:58,440
go through the second?

810
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,320
>> Well no, it'll be sold. Um

811
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,160
we won't own title to it anymore. If

812
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,760
that's in there, if that

813
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,760
>> Yeah, it is in there under 1 2 3rd

814
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,440
paragraph.

815
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,200
Um

816
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,640
uh 3rd sub after your second paragraph

817
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:20,120
on your uh update letter.

818
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,400
Where it says all properties will be

819
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,080
auctioned twice regardless of the real

820
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,080
market value.

821
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,000
>> I I think the intent is

822
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,520
real market value comes first process,

823
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,880
which is higher in most cases than what

824
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,640
is owed for the taxes and the properties

825
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,400
typically don't bring that much. And so

826
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,600
the secondary is okay if it doesn't sell

827
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:40,000
>> Yes.

828
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,840
>> most likely then we come back and run it

829
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,000
through auction. So we've covered

830
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,400
ourselves there as far as value and not

831
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,680
on the hook anymore. So then we go

832
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,000
through what I would consider a normal

833
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,200
process which is just recouping putting

834
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,640
it to auction recoup our taxes.

835
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:55,920
>> Yeah, that was in my memo. I was

836
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,800
thinking I had that in the policy. Yeah,

837
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,400
that just is a

838
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,240
that's a not clear way to say what he

839
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,360
just said. Which is we tax it or we

840
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,000
auction it once. If it doesn't sell we

841
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:08,640
have to auction it twice before we can

842
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,160
go to a private sale which is what we

843
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,360
used to do.

844
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:12,440
I just want to make sure we didn't get

845
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,600
ourselves in trouble by having that in

846
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,200
there as sort of a prescriptive. Yeah,

847
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,040
no that's not in the that would be Yeah,

848
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:20,400
that's not in the policy that was just

849
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,600
in my memo. Yeah, yeah. Thank you. And

850
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,400
then the other question I had was

851
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,680
uh the county transfers the surplus

852
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,200
proceeds to the state treasurer.

853
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,240
So can you clarify that because it's

854
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,360
always you know to me when we have the

855
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,960
state involved in terms of recouping and

856
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,520
this has been a county effort and it was

857
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,080
their problem to begin with that they

858
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,720
didn't want to fix.

859
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,400
Don't get me started.

860
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,120
Um

861
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,320
so

862
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,560
this actually was

863
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,440
um a benefit and something that the

864
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,800
counties were okay with.

865
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,200
The

866
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,000
um

867
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,760
burden of processing claims for surplus

868
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,200
would have been insane especially for

869
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,600
bigger counties. So the state treasurer

870
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,280
offered to take it off the county's

871
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,600
hands.

872
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:14,000
The downside being that they keep

873
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,639
whatever's extra.

874
00:34:15,639 --> 00:34:16,320
Um

875
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,679
>> In general so

876
00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:19,480
>> It I mean at the end of the day it was

877
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:20,800
being distributed to the taxing

878
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,280
districts anyways so it's not like the

879
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,440
county was holding that money.

880
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,560
>> 17% of it though was going to

881
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,679
Oh, coming to the county? Yeah. Um but

882
00:34:30,679 --> 00:34:33,510
that's

883
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:34,679
I mean

884
00:34:34,679 --> 00:34:36,480
it's surplus proceeds. It's technically

885
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,520
not anybody's money until it's

886
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,440
the statute statutory redemption

887
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,440
period's up.

888
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,120
But it's, you know

889
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,399
it was that was a give from the state to

890
00:34:48,399 --> 00:34:50,080
take that burden off her hands. So it's

891
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,320
not a bad thing.

892
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,480
>> How nice of them.

893
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,679
>> Yeah, they get a perk for sure. But um

894
00:34:56,679 --> 00:34:58,200
there were other things in House Bill

895
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,200
2089 that were far worse. I know

896
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:01,680
>> Okay, well thanks for all the work you

897
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,600
did on this for a long time.

898
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,000
>> help much, but you know, we tried.

899
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,270
>> I know. Thank you.

900
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,600
» All right.

901
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:12,760
I would move approval if I didn't

902
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:13,800
already. Is there any further

903
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:14,560
discussion?

904
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:15,040
>> None.

905
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,520
All those in favor signify by

906
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,720
saying I. I. Motion passes unanimously.

907
00:35:19,720 --> 00:35:22,400
Thank you and thank you, Jody.

908
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,880
J5

909
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,320
is consideration of approval of

910
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,200
amendment number eight to agreement

911
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,280
number 185833 between Yamhill County and

912
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,920
the Oregon Health Authority for public

913
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,800
health services board order 25-269

914
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:43,110
increasing funds by $329,974.

915
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:44,640
» I just want to add before I move

916
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,120
approval of this is back when HR1, the

917
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,760
big beautiful bill was in discussion,

918
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,160
this was sort of a a

919
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,000
sort of things that were being done to

920
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,200
make this less impactful for counties

921
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,600
and it was the rural health

922
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,800
transformation dollars that came from

923
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,040
centers for Medicaid and Medicare. We

924
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,920
got a an allocation to the county that

925
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,640
was going to be used for public health.

926
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,600
A lot of these grants are competitive,

927
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,480
but what the decision was made um was to

928
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,520
include, you know, solving problems for

929
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,440
families in some of these underserved

930
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,200
schools and that was Sheridan and Dayton

931
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,560
that didn't have a school-based health

932
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,880
center. So these are for two family

933
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,520
health navigators.

934
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,680
This is going to fund two positions. So

935
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,840
my concern was after the funding for

936
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,320
this goes away, is this going to be

937
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,080
self-sustaining? But, the hope is that

938
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,040
it will and that they're going to use

939
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,600
these funds that we came that came from

940
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,160
the federal government to cover these

941
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,600
positions in these schools. So, I think

942
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,440
it's a win-win at this point for public

943
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:41,840
health and I would move approval.

944
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,760
>> All right. Any further discussion?

945
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:44,160
>> None.

action had had to be read.

1104

1106
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:10,840

>> Let me shorten it up.

1109
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,800
It's It's not really a script. It's kind

1110
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:19,840
of an overview of what's being proposed

1111
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,640
and I think the memo covered a lot of

1112
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,640
this, but then there are requirements

1113
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,360
under their rules that we have to make

1114
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:26,400
sure that we cover.

1115
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,400
>> Okay, so

1116
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:29,960
>> Uh do we want Do we have an item number

1117
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,440
for this? Do we want to sign it?

1118
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,800
>> It'll It'll still be under the same uh

1119
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,440
>> So, do you want me to open the public

1120
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,000
hearing back up or no? That was just for

1121
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,880
the public comment.

1122
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:40,880
I did.

1123
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,350
>> Yeah.

1124
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:44,960
» Okay.

1125
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,520
>> No.

1126
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,000
>> I'm just reading a script.

1127
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:49,400
>> requirement that we have to put

1128
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:50,440
something on there that we heard. So,

1129
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:51,920
why don't we just in an abundance of

1130
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,720

the statement, see if there's any

1132
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,840
comments in regards to Mark's statement

1133
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,000
and then we can close the hearing.

1134
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,080
>> Okay.

1135
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,680
So, I'm going to reopen uh

1136
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:06,560
this public hearing for the receipt of

1137
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,440

1141
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:14,720
>> Okay.

1142
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:16,880
We are presented We're here to present

1143
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:18,680
the proposal for public hearing for the

1144
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,200

1146
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,760
purpose of the public hearing is to

1147
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,200
obtain citizen views to allow response

1148
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,560
for the public to funding proposals and

1149
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,320

District wastewater system

1154
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,320
rehabilitation project. The purpose of

1155
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,720
the CDBG grant is to improve the quality

1156
00:44:46,720 --> 00:44:49,200
of life for low and moderate income

1157
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:50,840
people can

1158
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,600
people by providing clean environmental

1159

00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,240
through water and sewer infrastructure

1161
00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:59,960
improvements and extensions of service.

1162
00:44:59,960 --> 00:45:01,240
To benefit the residential area, there

1163
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:03,200
must be at least 51% of the benefit

1164
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:04,400
entry areas

1165
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,440

1167
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,000
minimize displacement, provide

1168
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,360
displacement assistance as necessary.

1169
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,760
The CDBG program can fund a wide variety

1170
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,320
of community development activities,

1171
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,520
water and sewer infrastructure,

1172
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,120
neighborhood re- revitalization,

1173
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,320
uh urgent need, and economic development

1174
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,600
projects. Yamhill County is applying for

1175
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:32,360
this project under the water and sewer infrastructure program. The CDBG

1176
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,040
program can fund a range of sewer

1177
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,840
infrastructure activities including but

1178
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,960
not limited to uh wastewater. Projects

1179
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,360
that involve inflow and infiltration to

1180
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,080
collection systems that surcharge from

1181
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,760
pumps, pump stations, and manholes.

1182
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,920
Projects that extend public sewer and

1183
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,840
areas and failed septic tanks.

1184
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,800
Projects to rehabilitate the wastewater

1185
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,600
treatment plant to allow greater

1186
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,240
efficiency and compliance with

1187
00:45:58,240 --> 00:45:59,760
regulations.

1188
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:01,200
The grant will fund the design,

1189
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,080
environmental review, construction, and

1190
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,400
replacement of several main lines,

1191
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,680
laterals, manholes, clean outs, 14

1192
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,080
septic tanks, upgrade to the flow

1193
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,120
monitoring, dosing tank components, as

1194
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,320
well as video inspection of entire

1195
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,480
system according to the Calaveras plan

1196
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:17,560
for

1197
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,400
Cove Orchard Sewer District. An income

1198
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,360
survey was conducted door-to-door this

1199
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,640
winter at Cove Orchard Sewer District.

1200
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,320
Based on the results, 79 75.9

1201
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,640
of the population served is considered

1202
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,800
low to moderate income. This data

1203
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:36,200
validates the need for funding grant as

1204
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,480
assistance cannot afford

1205
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:39,960
required infrastructure improvements

1206
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,760
without economic assistance from the

1207
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,240
CDBG grant. Next steps for the public

1208
00:46:44,240 --> 00:46:46,600
hearing will be to write the CDBG grant,

1209
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,520
then submit the grant package by

1210
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,480
September 30th, 2026 for design and

1211
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,640
environmental review only.

1212
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,400
For the fiscal year of 2027, the CDBG

1213
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,000
funding availability is expected to be

1214
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,440
approximately $150,000.

1215
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,360
Then the county will come back a year

1216
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,080
later and apply for a CDBG grant for

1217
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,360
construction phase of the project. The

1218
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,600
maximum available grant is 1,000

1219
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:15,160
4 1,000 Excuse me, 1 million

1220
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,960
40,000 over the next 3-year period.

1221
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,040
We open the floor in questions about the

1222
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,880
CDBG program and about the proposed

1223
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,040
project.

1224
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,120
>> Is there any comments? Raise your hand,

1225
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:29,680
or if you're online, raise your virtual

1226
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,390
hand.

1227
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,880
» In your survey, what is the um

1228
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,960
threshold for low to moderate income?

1229
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,120
>> I I don't I think you asked that before.

1230
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,120
Uh there's actually a um

1231
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,720
something I had to find online for that

1232
00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:47,080
specifically

1233
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:48,840
number, and I got that from the business

1234
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:52,040
in Oregon. I don't remember that value,

1235
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,040
but it really it depends on how many

1236
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:55,320
people are actually even living in the

1237
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,280
home as well. So, it goes by the number

1238
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,200
of families living in in there and the

1239
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,320
number of people living in the house.

1240
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:02,200
So, it's like three different

1241
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,950
categories.

1242
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:05,840
» Okay.

1243
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,920
>> Seeing no public comment,

1244
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:11,360
I'm going to close this public hearing

1245
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,200
at 10:44 a.m.

1246
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,040
>> And I was just going to add if the board

1247
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:18,200
is wanting to take action, another

1248
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,640
proposed action could be a motion

1249
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,680
to authorize

1250
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,200
um

1251
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,400
staff to apply for the grant to proceed

1252
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:27,560
with the next steps and make the

1253
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,120
necessary applications.

1254
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:30,560
>> So moved. Is there any further

1255
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:31,520
discussion?

1256
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,040
>> None.

1257
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:33,840
All those in favor signify by

1258
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,920
saying I. I. Motion passes unanimously.

1259
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,720
Thank you very much for that, Mark.

1260
00:48:38,720 --> 00:48:43,590
>> Thanks, Mark.

1261
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,440
» All right, with that, that brings us to

1262
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,910
our announcements.

1263
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,710
Commissioner Keen.

1264
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:55,600
» Last week, I think we a lot of us saw

1265
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,800
the last days of school, [snorts] so

1266
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,720
universities are back at home or

1267
00:49:01,720 --> 00:49:03,600
my kids are at home,

1268
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,120
already getting antsy, so

1269
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,870
that's been fun.

1270
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,320
Pride Festival this last weekend, PFLAG

1271
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,880
in Newberg put on the Wine Country Run

1272
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:16,720
Club,

1273
00:49:16,720 --> 00:49:19,560
5K and a little fair afterwards. It was

1274
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,880
a really well-attended event, so kudos

1275
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,270
to those guys.

1276
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:27,840
Met with Brandon from Congressman

1277
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,520
Salinas' office.

1278
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:31,480
I'd mentioned that we're going to have

1279
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,040
open house, so I don't know if

1280
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:35,520
Ken or

1281
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:37,480
we can

1282
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:38,200
Brandon said that they would be

1283
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,440
interested in coming to our our open

1284
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:41,720
house, so if we can make sure that they

1285
00:49:41,720 --> 00:49:44,320
get a invite on when we have a solid

1286
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:47,840
date for that, that would be awesome.

1287
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:49,720
Uh Recovery High School, I spoke with

1288
00:49:49,720 --> 00:49:52,040
some groups to come and present on the

1289
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,920
2nd or 3rd August

1290
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,880
week of August for for us once we get

1291
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,840
back into our new digs and into the

1292
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,560
groove of things.

1293
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:03,000
Is there any particular date that would

1294
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,160
be better

1295
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,160
one over the other for you guys?

1296
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,830
That far out I can't imagine.

1297
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,360
» Hard to say right now.

1298
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:13,680
>> Well, we'll we'll I'll follow up with

1299
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:14,200
them.

1300
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,320
>> out there that we can pick.

1301
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,120
>> Um spoke a little bit about Newberg City

1302
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,720
Council. Um

1303
00:50:21,720 --> 00:50:24,080
discussion around

1304
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,520
waste management and

1305
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,520
um

1306
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:32,800
just they're not adding any more capacity to

1307
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:34,320
that. So,

1308
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,200
um that is one thing to pay attention

1309
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:37,400
to.

1310
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,360
Um they did de-annex the piece that we

1311
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,680
mentioned a few weeks ago um

1312
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:43,880
over by Rogers Landing. Uh so, that

1313
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,080
should be coming back to us for approval

1314
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,240
as well um soon.

1315
00:50:49,240 --> 00:50:52,560
And uh tomorrow's June is June June

1316
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:54,320
10th. I think offices are closed. Is

1317
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:55,640
that correct, Ken?

1318
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:56,640
Um

1319
00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:01,000
you know, I think that this was a way to kind of celebrate the last

1320
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,000
emancipated slaves and

1321
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,520
I know that as that might not mean a lot

1322
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,360
here in Oregon or Yamhill County,

1323
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,760
there's still quite a bit of

1324
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,400
racism that we see. I know in Newberg

1325
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,360
High School it's a huge problem.

1326
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,560
Um and I see it happen all around. So,

1327
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:18,120
uh hopefully with this we can just bring

1328
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:21,520
some awareness to um

1329
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:22,880
some of that racism that happens in our

1330
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,840
community and

1331
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,640
that it would make a step towards the

1332
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,960
stop of it. So, thank you.

1333
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:31,440
>> Do you have any specific examples of

1334
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,760
this racism that you say is so rampant?

1335
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:35,600
>> Oh, yeah. I mean, I I know I had a

1336
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,920
friend um

1337
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:39,960
two or three weeks ago was leaving uh

1338
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,160
the pool in Newberg and some kids drove

1339
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,520
by and called her the N-word.

1340
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,200
And said, "Get out of town." I think it

1341
00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,000
happens in you know, in the in the high

1342
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,320
school. It happens um with the same

1343
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:52,160
thing between Hispanic people being

1344
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,920
called racial slurs and uh

1345
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:56,120
you know,

1346
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,040
racial slurs is is a huge problem

1347
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,800
um that that I see happen all of the

1348
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:02,320
time.

1349
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,920
>> You see, I I I'm I'm just I think when

1350
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,400
we hear when we make those statements,

1351
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,400
we're painting a picture of a community

1352
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,240
that I think is completely erroneous.

1353
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:13,280
>> true. It's real.

1354
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:13,720
>> And

1355
00:52:13,720 --> 00:52:14,920
>> We're painting a picture that's real.

1356
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,120
>> You hear it. You You say you see it. I'm

1357
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,400
just trying to to see whether or not

1358
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,520
this is verifiable or whether you're

1359
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,960
just painting a picture of Newberg as a

1360
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:26,400
racist community.

1361
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:27,240
>> you'd like, I can have them come here

1362
00:52:27,240 --> 00:52:30,200
and show and tell you their stories.

1363
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:31,880
>> Well, you know, I think we have to be

1364
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,960
really really careful about that. I just

1365
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:35,560
think it we we need to be really careful

1366
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:37,400
about calling our communities

1367
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,480
a just a blanket statement of calling

1368
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:40,960
them racist.

1369
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,720
>> call our our blanket community racist. I

1370
00:52:43,720 --> 00:52:45,480
said that it's here.

1371
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:45,880
>> Okay.

1372
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,280
>> And and it's it's verifiable. If you

1373
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:49,880
want, I can have them, but I didn't call

1374
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:51,840
every person in Yamhill County a racist.

1375
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:53,120
>> All right. Well, I just want to put that

1376
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:53,920
on the record.

1377
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:55,400
>> Well, I'd like to have it on the record

1378
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:57,320
that racism is here.

1379
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,480
>> Right. Okay. All right. Well, here we

1380
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:01,240
go.

1381
00:53:01,240 --> 00:53:01,920
All right. Uh

1382
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:02,920
>> Go ahead.

1383
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:04,240
>> What you Are you done?

1384
00:53:04,240 --> 00:53:05,520
>> Yeah.

1385
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:06,520
>> Okay.

1386
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,880
Uh my update is that we had our adult

1387
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:10,840
recovery court policy meeting. That's

1388
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,720
presided over that court is presided

1389
00:53:12,720 --> 00:53:16,200
over by Judge Wiles, and he um

1390
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,160
puts together a group, and we're we've

1391
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:19,560
got um

1392
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,760
POs, clinicians, recovery court uh

1393
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,040
involvement, uh and we talk about the

1394
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,120
policies that will help the folks who

1395
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,560
are enrolled in the participants get

1396
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:31,840
through the get through the It's a very

1397
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:33,760
grueling process, and we want to make

1398
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,760
sure that when they are out of the

1399
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:37,640
process, that they're able to maintain

1400
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,360
their sobriety. So, I always appreciate

1401
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:41,120
the work that's being done there. Our

1402
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,640
CCO board meeting, we talked about some

1403
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:44,800
of the

1404
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,000
funding recommendations and some of that

1405
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,480
money is going to go to Grand Sheramina

1406
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,320
and to the Churches United for West

1407
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:53,360
Valley, which is another community group

1408
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,280
in the West Valley, some tribal

1409
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,960
supports, and also some funding for the

1410
00:53:58,960 --> 00:53:59,600
um

1411
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,560
uh the traditional health health worker

1412
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,280
development in our county. Also want to

1413
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:05,840
talk about when we have these work

1414
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:07,400
requirements that are starting as a

1415
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,320
result of HR 1. They'll be

1416
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:11,800
uh they just started and now we have to

1417
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,920
look at some of the Medicaid uh the

1418
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,440
Medicaid changes that are going to take

1419
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,560
place in our community. Conversation was

1420
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,440
around the Providence health plan going

1421
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:22,360
away and also internally the pharmacy

1422
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,240
benefit manager, they're going to have

1423
00:54:24,240 --> 00:54:26,440
to look for a new one. So, lots of stuff

1424
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:28,680
that the CCO is facing and I do want to

1425
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,960
appreciate the work that they do.

1426
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,480
>> Thank you.

1427
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,280
Uh last Thursday was Lafayette City

1428
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,160
Council meeting and if the mayor were

1429
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:39,360
here, she'd probably correct me, but

1430
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,000
it's very interesting. So, they have to

1431
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:42,200
if they're going to expend more than a

1432
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:43,920
million dollars in grant funding that

1433
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,440
they've already received, they actually

1434
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,840
have to put it to the vote of the

1435
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,080
people. So, they're creating a ballot

1436
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,680
title right now to go on November ballot

1437
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,280
so that they can expend grant funding

1438
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,160
that they've received for the for pump

1439
00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:57,280
station. So, I found that very

1440
00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:59,000
interesting if Kevin wants to

1441
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,840
>> Yeah, it's a piece of the one of the

1442
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,040
quirks of their charter is any project

1443
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:04,920
over a million dollars has to be

1444
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:06,840
approved by

1445
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,680
public vote. Which these days means

1446
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,200
there's a lot that's going to have to go

1447
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:14,000
before the voters. So,

1448
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:15,640
um it does make it very difficult to

1449
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:17,160
apply for the large grants and things

1450
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:18,400
like that. But,

1451
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,480
>> And how to word the the title for the

1452
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,720
ballot to make sure that's well, wait,

1453
00:55:22,720 --> 00:55:24,120
is is it city funds? Where's it coming

1454
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:25,640
from? Well, the funding's already there.

1455
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,200
It's hey, will you let us go ahead and

1456
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,600
use this grant funding? Or I think in

1457
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:31,080
this case it's already been received

1458
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:31,960
maybe.

1459
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:33,440
>> It maybe. I'm I'm not sure about this

1460
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,040
specific

1461
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,000
>> Anyway, I wish the The was here so she

1462
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:36,960
can clarify, but

1463
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:37,880
>> It's a challenge really.

1464
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,200
>> It was very interesting and watching

1465
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,320
them go through the whole process at the

1466
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:42,960
dais trying to come up with a ballot

1467
00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:44,960
title for

1468
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,400
November. Anyway, that was interesting.

1469
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:49,000
Uh Friday

1470
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:49,840
uh

1471
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,160
I had a meeting uh with a new

1472
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,600
potentially a new grant writing firm for

1473
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,120
specifically for the Newberg Dundee

1474
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,320
bypass to go after mega grant, rural

1475
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,160
grant, or an infra grant. Um they did

1476
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:05,040
release a infra grant uh or a nofo

1477
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:06,840
before a grant coming out, but the

1478
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,520
window was like it's like 2 weeks long

1479
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,240
for a federal grant. It was basically

1480
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:13,800
written for grants that were probably

1481
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,880
either denied previously and they

1482
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:17,680
already know the projects that are out

1483
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,040
there and they opened up this short

1484
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:20,840
window so that that those grants could

1485
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,880
go apply for it. Um e- either way, we

1486
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:25,000
still had a

1487
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,400
uh conversation with the transportation

1488
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:29,320
solutions company in Washington to see

1489
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,200
uh what it looks like for us to either

1490
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,160
apply for that one, which is not going

1491
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:35,880
to happen, or now what it would look

1492
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,160
like for the future for uh any other

1493
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:39,800
potential grant fundings that come out,

1494
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,640
which probably will hit early next year,

1495
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,720
mega grant, rural grant, uh infra,

1496
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:46,640
something like that. So,

1497
00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,280
uh conversations are in in in play. I'll

1498
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,120
come back to you guys with probably

1499
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,800
dollar amounts that uh these grants may

1500
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:57,000
end up costing. Uh we are between

1501
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:58,560
Parkway Committee and and Dave

1502
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,280
Hargerberg is spearheading it going

1503
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:02,280
around to all the other different uh

1504
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:03,640
groups throughout the community, whether

1505
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,840
it's the tribes or Spring Mountain group

1506
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,280
uh to

1507
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:08,200
um

1508
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:09,800
get funding from them first and then our

1509
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,080
next stop is going to be ODOT to see

1510
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:12,840
what they have for funding to help with

1511
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,480
this because, you know, they really

1512
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,440
should be driving this, but uh we're

1513
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,040
going to proceed

1514
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,520
uh in conjunction with them with advice

1515
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,040
or or whatever they do. My biggest thing

1516
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:26,200
I don't want ODOT time-wise to hang us

1517
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,440
up because um

1518
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,080
transportation solutions Inc. They

1519
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:32,000
naturally get this grant done in about 6

1520
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,160
to 8 months. There's a lot that goes

1521
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,520
into it with different studies besides

1522
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,080
the application. There's traffic studies

1523
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:42,600
and there's um cost analysis benefit analysis that

1524
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,440
need to be done and they're

1525
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:45,920
uh well in tune to be able to do that

1526
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:48,680
for us. So, that's hanging out there. Um

1527
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:50,800
there are it seems like a

1528
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,000
Springboard uh has some funding that

1529
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,320
they're willing to throw towards it. Um

1530
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:56,760
uh next stop is ODOT to see where

1531
00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:57,960
they're at and I'll give you guys an

1532
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:02,240
update probably in 2 or 3 weeks.

1533
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,240
Question?

1534
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,960
To uh John and Patty back there as well

1535
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,600
for being on the committees and in uh in

1536
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:11,000
Salem for those. I'm sure it's uh

1537
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:11,800
>> Yeah, I'm sure it's an extra

1538
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:13,320
>> an extra work.

1539
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:14,000
>> Yeah, I'm there.

1540
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:14,800
>> Condolences.

1541
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,280
yes. Thank you for

1542
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:17,800
representing though.

1543
00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:19,680
>> And thank you, Chair Johnston. You have

1544
00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:21,360
pushed this farther than anybody has

1545
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:22,680
over the years. So, thank you for that.

1546
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,520
>> More than happy to be there and we got

1547
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,400
funding for McDougall after the Oregon

1548
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:28,720
Transportation Comm- I can't remember if

1549
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:30,880
I updated uh last week on this or not,

1550
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,920
but $14 million and we are slated for

1551
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:35,520
construction for McDougall now, which is

1552
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,840
fantastic. Um we're funded for design

1553
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,360
phase for La Fayette 18. They're talking

1554
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,680
like 2030, 2031 for construction.

1555
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,760
Um there are I guess while I'm on the

1556
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:48,880
subject, uh there are

1557
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:50,040
three

1558
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,040
fairly relevant transportation projects

1559
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:54,480
that are going to happen within the next

1560
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,280
uh 2 to 3 years.

1561
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,680
One is on the backside of uh

1562
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:00,800
McMinnville. It's Highway 18 from I'm

1563
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:03,360
just going to say the la- the first exit

1564
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:06,800
behind Lowe's and then probably around

1565
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:07,480
uh

1566
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,440
well, it ends pretty close to

1567
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,520
uh behind Lowe's there.

1568
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:12,720
That's going to be a fairly major

1569
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:14,960
project where they got to close Highway

1570
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,400
18 for multiple days twice in about a

1571
00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:19,480
year.

1572
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,960
Um so, and and thanks to Counselor

1573
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,360
Chenowith brought attention to, it's

1574
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,480
going to be closed on Sunday,

1575
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,400
which is a heavy traffic day for

1576
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:30,440
everybody coming home from the coast in

1577
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:32,000
August.

1578
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,840
So, the way they had their detours, he

1579
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:35,720
was super concerned, and so he invited

1580
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:37,440
me to the meeting plus ODOT officials,

1581
00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:39,240
and we had a pretty good conversation

1582
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:42,520
about um either rerouting or having

1583
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,320
multiple detours, or if there is if we

1584
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,120
don't change the detour, we know that

1585
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:48,680
like for example, people coming from the

1586
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:50,520
coast are going to take Durham,

1587
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,320
whether you put that detour cut that off

1588
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:53,960
or not. We talked about actually

1589
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,120
shutting that road down so people don't

1590
00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:57,960
take it, or they better have a flagger

1591
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,200
at 99 and Durham because people are just

1592
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:01,280
going to naturally take that as a

1593
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:02,680
bypass. So,

1594
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:04,000
seems like a pretty good plan. That's

1595
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,640
still a year away, but uh bid goes out

1596
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,400
in October for that project.

1597
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,600
Bid goes out for McDougal also in

1598
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:13,600
October, but they will not do both of

1599
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:15,360
those projects at the same time. They'll

1600
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:18,080
actually delay McDougal till 2028 when

1601
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:20,400
they're done with the project behind

1602
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:22,280
Lowe's at Highway 18.

1603
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:23,040
In the mean

1604
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,520
>> It's also going to impact transit with

1605
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,280
its location on Durham. That's just

1606
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:28,880
another thing to kind of put in there.

1607
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:29,920
>> Right.

1608
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:30,760
Yeah.

1609
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,120
So, it's not going to be fun, but I look

1610
01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,360
forward to I don't

1611
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:36,760
I look forward to the trans or the

1612
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:38,760
project being complete, and we'll we'll

1613
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:40,720
get through this, but it needs a little

1614
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,440
bit better

1615
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:44,600
planning, and ODOT's very fully well

1616
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,520
aware, and thanks to Counselor Chenoweth

1617
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,120
for kind of bring all that those pieces

1618
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:49,480
together. And we're still a year away,

1619
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:50,840
so

1620
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:52,480
even in ODOT terms, I think we can get

1621
01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,320
this in. We may need an IGA between us

1622
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,720
and ODOT. If we do in fact use Durham as

1623
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:01,440
a detour at least for that Sunday, and

1624
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,800
they put flaggers at 99, they said if we

1625
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,040
do a detour on that, then we'll need an

1626
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:07,800
IGA between us and them.

1627
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,040
>> Is that also potentially are they

1628
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:10,880
looking

1629
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:14,150
What What road is that?

1630
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:15,160
Old Sheridan Road?

1631
01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:15,880
>> Mhm.

1632
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:18,160
>> Yes, Old Sheridan was another one that

1633
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,320
not designated as a detour, but you know

1634
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:22,920
people are going to take it. So.

1635
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:25,000
>> Mhm.

1636
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:26,880
It's coming, but

1637
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,160
we're focused on it and

1638
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:30,560
Councilor Chenowith will not let this

1639
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:32,040
one slip through the cracks. I guarantee

1640
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:34,040
you. He's all over it.

1641
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:36,320
Anyway, so construction projects, they

1642
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:38,120
will not do McDougal at the same time

1643
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:39,840
even though they both go out for bid

1644
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:41,880
this fall. McDougal actually will be

1645
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,000
delayed one more year till 2028 cuz they

1646
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,160
don't want to have two major projects on

1647
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:49,560
the same highway cuz it'll talk about

1648
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,840
really mess things up. But what will be

1649
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,600
happening in conjunction in 2027 are the

1650
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,960
smaller projects in that McDougal Road

1651
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,240
area. So right by the way scales,

1652
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,960
they're going to realign McDougal at a

1653
01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:04,200
90° instead of an angle.

1654
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:05,320
They're going to do that project.

1655
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:06,280
They're going to go ahead and do the

1656
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,040
turn lane project at Stoller Road.

1657
01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,280
And they're going to cut off the end of

1658
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:13,320
McDougal on the Lafayette side. So they

1659
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,920
will in 2027 do those projects, but the

1660
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,560
roundabout will wait till 2028 cuz

1661
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:19,880
that's going to

1662
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,760
create some major closures. So a lot

1663
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:25,160
happening.

1664
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,880
And glad to see it all moving forward.

1665
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,920
AOC Friday, we had natural resource

1666
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:32,560
committee and our transportation

1667
01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:34,080
committee.

1668
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,120
Monday we had our Yamhill County

1669
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:37,920
Economic Alliance meeting. Very

1670
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:40,640
interesting discussion Patty about the

1671
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:42,360
urban form and what they're doing for

1672
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,080
all the cities. I'm looking forward to

1673
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,040
extended conversations on that and see

1674
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:51,200
if there's a fit for them for us.

1675
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,390
Um.

1676
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:55,840
Also on Monday with Sheridan City

1677
01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,600
Council, Sheridan discussed

1678
01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,790
um

1679
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:04,160
potentially

1680
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:05,360
and it's just they just asked a

1681
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:07,680
question. It's fine and I probably

1682
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,600
wouldn't even be updating if I didn't

1683
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:11,840
actually being called to the dais to

1684
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:13,520
give some background on where we're at

1685
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:15,480
with the fairgrounds, but they want to

1686
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:18,400
be a part of the conversation for

1687
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:20,320
possibly if there is a relocation of the

1688
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:21,960
fairgrounds they want to be at the table

1689
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:23,920
to help with that.

1690
01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:26,840
Um, so I'm in the process to seeing as

1691
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:28,960
we get closer to the master plan process

1692
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,360
over the next 8 months to a year

1693
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,920
and we set up probably committee

1694
01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,480
we need to have a representative from

1695
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:37,920
West Valley on that committee. So

1696
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,080
just as a quick high overview

1697
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:44,600
um, update on that. Tuesday

1698
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:46,800
uh, was the Oda meeting that I just gave

1699
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:49,680
a big rundown on. Um, done DC to council

1700
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:50,640
meeting.

1701
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:52,160
Uh, I gave them an update on our

1702
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:54,720
construction process for GSB and I'm

1703
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:56,320
just letting everybody know that we

1704
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,720
could possibly if you plan on coming to

1705
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:00,960
a meeting in person check the calendar

1706
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:02,960
just to make sure because we may be all

1707
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:04,840
virtual for a few weeks. So I'm just

1708
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,320
kind of pre-warning everybody.

1709
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:10,040
Um, park board meeting was canceled for

1710
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:11,560
tonight.

1711
01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,560
Uh, parkway committee was this morning

1712
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:15,120
which pretty much was the same update

1713
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:16,320
that I just gave for the construction

1714
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:17,720
projects.

1715
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:19,720
Um, and then fair board meeting tonight

1716
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,120
at 5:30.

1717
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:23,640
And we're a little over a month away

1718
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:25,360
from fair time. So get ready. It's going

1719
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:27,360
to be here before you know it.

1720
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:28,680
Is there anything else for the good of

1721
01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:30,120
the order?

1722
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:31,960
None?

1723
01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:33,480
All right, cool.

1724
01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:34,440
Appreciate it. We're going to close it

1725
01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:38,000
out at 11:01 a.m. Everybody have a good

1726
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,560
weekend.
