00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.200
Public Works Committee for Students Accountants, Thursday, June 11th, 5 o'clock.

00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:09.960
I'd like to know if they need to order item 2.0, the approval of the agenda.

00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:11.400
Do you have a motion to approve it?

00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:12.960
So we'll go to Mr.

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.240
Meier, Mr.

00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:15.759
Jogerst, any discussion?

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:19.239
That's not all those drivers had.

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:24.530
Motion for item 4.0.

00:00:24.969 --> 00:00:29.449
Oh, sorry, 3.0 review and approval of the meeting minutes from last month,

00:00:29.449 --> 00:00:34.450
May 14th, that motion will approve the meeting minutes.

00:00:34.450 --> 00:00:37.689
Moved by Mr. Jogerst, seconded by Mr. Moderow.

00:00:37.689 --> 00:00:38.689
Any discussion?

00:00:39.850 --> 00:00:41.429
Seeing none, all those in favor?

00:00:41.429 --> 00:00:42.390
I have.

00:00:42.390 --> 00:00:43.229
You can go this way, Adam.

00:00:43.229 --> 00:00:44.070
He goes.

00:00:44.070 --> 00:00:46.530
The meeting minutes are approved.

00:00:46.530 --> 00:00:49.570
Item 4.0 is the approval of the claims this month.

00:00:49.570 --> 00:00:54.570
We have $550,915 and eight cents.

00:00:56.310 --> 00:00:58.649
It's a pleasure to have made it.

00:00:58.649 --> 00:01:09.650
Second. Motion to approve. And second. Any discussion, questions, concerns? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:01:09.650 --> 00:01:10.650
Aye.

00:01:10.650 --> 00:01:12.650
Motion is approved.

00:01:12.650 --> 00:01:24.090
At 5.0 is public comments. Is anyone here tonight to address the meeting?

00:01:24.090 --> 00:01:39.439
Do you have three minutes so please state your name for the video.

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.439
Brian Scott with PIA Transport.

00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:55.000
I talked to some people out there and I just brought some information.

00:01:55.000 --> 00:02:01.859
What we were trying to do was see if the committee would consider permitting for our trailers

00:02:01.859 --> 00:02:02.859
to go in there.

00:02:02.859 --> 00:02:11.219
Pull some stuff together out of all of this.

00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:36.080
and basically just the information from you shows that the difference between a five axle

00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:43.800
trailer and a six axle trailer at 105,000 versus 80,000, it's not as drastic as it sounds.

00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:50.819
The weight per square inch per tire is not that much different than an $80,000 contract

00:02:50.819 --> 00:02:53.280
going down the same roads.

00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:59.479
And the amount of loads hauled compared to what we were hauling to what we are hauling

00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:03.460
is two to one with all three loads a day now.

00:03:03.460 --> 00:03:09.280
So that's four and before we were at two, maybe two and a half.

00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:11.159
There's not a permit available right now.

00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:15.120
There is one available right now, but it's $450 a day.

00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.520
Obviously that's not something that's economical

00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:24.000
for any trucking company to pass on to the farmer

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.060
or the plant that's in your county.

00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.840
So I was just hoping that maybe it would be taken

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.520
into consideration that, I don't know if it would be

00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:37.719
something that would be possible to do individual permits

00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:39.479
as far as trucking companies in general,

00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:42.159
rather than offer it to everybody.

00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:47.159
Or if it's something that maybe there was an amount of money

00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:51.199
that wasn't $450 today, that would be beneficial

00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.240
for both sides to do that.

00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:58.599
And I know there was discussions with this

00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.560
that it may be put back on the NU'EST or CASOS plate,

00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:06.560
but in most places that we permit,

00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:09.039
it goes directly to the traffic company itself

00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.080
because they're the ones responsible for the equipment

00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:12.120
going down the roads.

00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.639
So this is just my opportunity to put something in front of you

00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:18.560
to show what the differences are.

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:21.759
And then it's not as drastic as it sounds.

00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:24.839
It's not heavy trucks wrecking your guys' roads

00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:29.279
because we do have more axles that are equivalent to

00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.680
maybe a little bit more, but not anything that will

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.480
ease the cause to damage the roads.

00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:38.199
So it was just something that I thought

00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:47.199
from you guys that maybe you consider, I don't know if that's how that, how that process works or anything like that.

00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:54.199
At the end of the three minutes, I'll tell you that you need to work with the hiring department, with Brian and Dale, they've been very capable hands.

00:04:54.199 --> 00:05:02.199
And if that's under their judgment, if there's a policy change that we need to look at, then that will come through.

00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:12.699
Let me look this over and we'll put it on the agenda for the next public meeting about what we can do.

00:05:12.699 --> 00:05:14.699
That would be greatly appreciated.

00:05:14.699 --> 00:05:16.699
I appreciate your time.

00:05:16.699 --> 00:05:24.699
Anyone else?

00:05:24.699 --> 00:05:31.699
Moving on to item 6.0, it's the Department of Reports and 6.1 is Animal Control.

00:05:31.699 --> 00:05:58.899
All right. So, cat intake for May was 58 total. Out of those 58, 35 were transferred to rescues. Four were adopted. One was reclaimed. It was actually a cat that made it from Stockton to Freeport, pitched to ride on in a vehicle, axle or engine.

00:05:58.899 --> 00:06:04.939
and Tyler. Five are adaptable currently. We have 11 on hold, which are anything under

00:06:04.939 --> 00:06:15.139
eight weeks old or pregnant. We have two in foster. And we took 23 dogs in. We have 11

00:06:15.139 --> 00:06:21.740
of them were reclaimed. One went to rescue. Ten are on hold, which includes a mom and

00:06:21.740 --> 00:06:25.220
for nine puppies and one was adopted.

00:06:25.220 --> 00:06:29.180
Current animals we have are eight cats that are adoptable,

00:06:29.180 --> 00:06:32.180
13 are on hold, two are in foster,

00:06:32.180 --> 00:06:35.540
one is boarding still, 24 total.

00:06:35.540 --> 00:06:38.620
Dogs, we have five adoptable, two on hold.

00:06:40.139 --> 00:06:42.579
Well, sorry, we have vomit left too.

00:06:42.579 --> 00:06:45.899
One fostered and we have eight.

00:06:47.019 --> 00:06:49.100
I should say we have eight at the animal school.

00:06:49.100 --> 00:06:52.300
At the building, we have Stella with her nine babies

00:06:52.300 --> 00:06:54.860
that were born on Memorial Day.

00:06:54.860 --> 00:06:57.699
She was picked up Thursday before Memorial Day,

00:06:57.699 --> 00:07:01.300
very, very now, obviously, and she had them on Memorial Day.

00:07:01.300 --> 00:07:03.060
So they're two weeks old now.

00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:08.980
As far as court cases and your crisis case went

00:07:10.259 --> 00:07:12.939
for a bench trial, they found them guilty

00:07:12.939 --> 00:07:15.160
for two of the running at large tickets

00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.819
and the rest were not guilty.

00:07:17.819 --> 00:07:20.139
Mary's case, nothing really happened.

00:07:21.100 --> 00:07:25.620
On the 22nd of May, Iowa County Community Society

00:07:25.620 --> 00:07:29.300
in Dodgeville pulled seven dogs, eight cats,

00:07:29.300 --> 00:07:33.240
and seven kittens from us, a total of 22 animals.

00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.379
Two of the dogs were, or I should say,

00:07:36.379 --> 00:07:38.139
three of the dogs were long-term dogs.

00:07:38.139 --> 00:07:43.139
One was with us since January of 26, no, 25.

00:07:43.139 --> 00:07:55.740
and the other one was with us since August of 25. So out of those dogs, I think they

00:07:55.740 --> 00:08:01.100
place like five or six animals are different and they're willing to, I basically had a

00:08:01.100 --> 00:08:07.019
current inventory sheet. I sent it to her kind of like this and she's like, I highlighted

00:08:07.019 --> 00:08:11.300
the ones I wanted. I'm like, it would have been easier if you highlighted the ones you

00:08:11.300 --> 00:08:21.300
She didn't want it. It was all yellow. I'm like, I'm for that. So I did transport them. So Louie got to work out. She had 22 animals in her.

00:08:21.300 --> 00:08:27.300
She did good. We got them there. It was fun.

00:08:27.300 --> 00:08:33.299
As far as the building, I have most of the stuff from the animal hospital moved over.

00:08:33.299 --> 00:08:43.799
As soon as we get internet over there, I will move computers and stuff and I will move the cats over once I'm over there so I can take care of them.

00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:52.799
Right now I'm going over there to take care of Mama, obviously, but once we get internet and I can actually work out of there, we will move the cats over.

00:08:52.799 --> 00:09:01.279
um kennels he said they are going to be shipped on Wednesday of next week and he will give me a

00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:08.240
tracking number once that is what i reached out to him because it was like crickets after memorial

00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:14.720
day and i'm like um you said you would send me pictures and i've seen nothing he said oh yeah

00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:20.720
they're getting packed they're ready to go and he still had the lamb road address so i had to correct

00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.440
I'm going to start that again and say they go here.

00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.720
So he said he got that fixed too.

00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:32.120
Nia has been working with me for about a month now

00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:34.940
and she's picking up the software really nice.

00:09:34.940 --> 00:09:37.539
She's actually been going to the Kerr College

00:09:37.539 --> 00:09:39.279
on Thursdays for me.

00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.600
So I don't have to cut my day

00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:46.000
and she can go pick up and drop off and that's nice.

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:47.759
She's going to start working Mondays

00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:49.919
because she does babysit on Mondays

00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:53.279
but now school's out so she can do Mondays and Thursdays

00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:55.360
and eventually she'll pick up more hours

00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:56.720
once we're in the building.

00:09:58.500 --> 00:09:59.340
All right.

00:09:59.340 --> 00:10:08.179
I did put the ending balance on this sheet so I didn't have to at least set a paper for it by itself.

00:10:08.179 --> 00:10:15.179
May has the holiday in it so numbers are a little low because of the Memorial Day.

00:10:15.179 --> 00:10:21.710
Otherwise for the year we're doing good still.

00:10:21.710 --> 00:10:31.710
pick-ups went up because we had that big pick-up that the dogs were a repeat offender, so he had to pay a $500.

00:10:31.710 --> 00:10:41.710
I did have, I guess there was an incident in McConnell that I just found out today where two dogs were running loose and filled with cats.

00:10:41.710 --> 00:10:47.710
And then I guess the dog got, one of the dogs got hit on McConnell Road or Orangeville Road.

00:10:47.710 --> 00:10:59.710
So I have to do an investigation on that and then there's some issues in ride out with dogs running at large and going after people walking their dogs.

00:10:59.710 --> 00:11:09.710
So there have been three incidents in the last month. Two are the same dogs doing it. So we might end up have to deem them dangerous.

00:11:09.710 --> 00:11:13.710
They can't follow rules and keep them in their house.

00:11:13.710 --> 00:11:18.590
House. So it sounds like they're one time they opened the door somehow and went after

00:11:18.590 --> 00:11:27.809
them and so yeah, it's pretty good. Um, otherwise the claims were the normal and then our leastly

00:11:27.809 --> 00:11:36.990
our lease quarterly lease for shelter boss, our, our rabies tags. And I did have a lady

00:11:36.990 --> 00:11:42.669
reach out to me this week about a program that she has for tags. And I'm going to set

00:11:42.669 --> 00:12:12.629
up a demo with her to see what it's like, if it's how much money sounds like it might be free. So, and it depends on how our program, if we can pull from that, and it's not re-entering again, it's like we want to do that. But if they can maybe Nate, if it's one that we can transfer over, it's free. And it's about the same. So she's going to give me a call me next week and get something set up.

00:12:12.669 --> 00:12:14.350
a lot of more next meeting for that.

00:12:17.870 --> 00:12:33.950
Lynette, DeMeester, Edelberg, Towing, Tracy Hulberg did a check, Lions Club didn't, that was in April, but they did, that's the second Lions, Cedarville Lions that donated.

00:12:35.069 --> 00:12:36.830
And then I also put the arrow

00:12:36.830 --> 00:13:00.340
What was the result of those two guilty findings?

00:13:00.340 --> 00:13:05.059
He got a year of court supervision and fines and court costs.

00:13:05.059 --> 00:13:12.580
I think it was 200, it wasn't like $300 and that would go not towards us.

00:13:12.819 --> 00:13:14.539
We didn't do the tickets, the sheriff's did.

00:13:14.539 --> 00:13:20.460
So I think both cases were a year, a year piece.

00:13:20.460 --> 00:13:23.860
And then the fines per case.

00:13:28.830 --> 00:13:34.069
I have a question, more of a concern, I guess, than a question.

00:13:34.069 --> 00:13:44.069
but, uh, surrenders at 33 and city strays at 17 to Spistia, um, did we get anything for that?

00:13:44.069 --> 00:13:50.069
So, the reason the city dogs are on there, we actually don't, we just do the paperwork.

00:13:50.069 --> 00:13:52.069
City cats, sorry.

00:13:52.069 --> 00:14:00.960
Oh, the cats, we really don't get, the dog wise, we really don't physically take the dogs in.

00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.960
We just, we've been doing the paperwork because they fall through the cracks

00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:08.659
Jackson. A few of them have come county stories and then we don't have the paperwork proven.

00:14:08.659 --> 00:14:13.799
They were picked up before and in order for us to say that dog needs to be fixed because

00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:18.299
if they're picked up twice, they should be fixed. We don't have any paper trail because

00:14:18.299 --> 00:14:23.480
the city didn't do paper trail. So we just, when they come to the animal hospital for

00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:28.660
the microchip, which is one of our microchips, technically we buy them, but obviously the

00:14:28.660 --> 00:14:30.899
the owners pay for them.

00:14:30.899 --> 00:14:32.899
We've just been doing paperwork.

00:14:32.899 --> 00:14:36.079
So we have a paper trail of those dogs too.

00:14:36.079 --> 00:14:38.600
The cat wise, no, we don't, we haven't.

00:14:40.100 --> 00:14:44.259
I mean, they, most of the cats go to rescue.

00:14:44.259 --> 00:14:47.620
I wanted the city streets stay at the city.

00:14:48.700 --> 00:14:50.620
The dogs are the cats.

00:14:50.620 --> 00:14:52.059
They don't have a place for the cats.

00:14:52.059 --> 00:14:54.819
They all go to the animal hospital.

00:14:54.819 --> 00:14:57.420
That's why it's going to change when we move.

00:14:57.420 --> 00:15:02.460
Yeah, I think what we've talked before about talking to the city about doing an intergovernmental agreement.

00:15:02.460 --> 00:15:03.779
Yeah, because we're not...

00:15:03.779 --> 00:15:04.740
It's high time.

00:15:04.740 --> 00:15:10.220
Yeah, they're not going over there unless we have a contract.

00:15:10.220 --> 00:15:13.100
Okay, so what you mean by it's going to change once we're...

00:15:13.100 --> 00:15:18.139
Yes, yes, they're not, they're on their own.

00:15:18.139 --> 00:15:21.579
And the animal hospital already told them that they're not,

00:15:21.579 --> 00:15:26.579
because right now our license is technically the animals

00:15:26.700 --> 00:15:28.379
at the animal hospital

00:15:28.379 --> 00:15:30.339
because that's where our animals are.

00:15:30.339 --> 00:15:34.100
In June, the license will be at Meadows Drive

00:15:34.100 --> 00:15:36.779
and they won't have a license at the animal hospital.

00:15:36.779 --> 00:15:40.440
Well, if we're still there, they will until we move,

00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:42.620
but I already talked to the department today

00:15:42.620 --> 00:15:44.779
and he knows once our animals are out there,

00:15:44.779 --> 00:15:47.500
there's no, that license is no longer theirs.

00:15:47.500 --> 00:15:50.500
It's, I mean, with that building, it's ours

00:15:50.500 --> 00:15:52.000
because it's our license.

00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:53.360
So the city's gonna have to,

00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:57.480
and they did, the animal hospital did send them something

00:15:57.480 --> 00:15:58.319
saying-

00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:00.120
License.

00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:02.259
So what happens to the animals that are at the animal hospital

00:16:02.259 --> 00:16:05.180
now that came from the city once we move?

00:16:05.180 --> 00:16:06.259
Are they with you?

00:16:08.100 --> 00:16:09.860
I'm hoping there's gonna be none, to be honest,

00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:12.579
and just be the, the surrenders in the county strays.

00:16:12.579 --> 00:16:15.079
I know what we're hoping, but what's the reality?

00:16:16.100 --> 00:16:18.180
If they're there, are they coming with you?

00:16:18.180 --> 00:16:24.180
We'll have to discuss that, I guess. I mean, I would think so, but...

00:16:24.180 --> 00:16:28.490
So I'll give it to Mayor.

00:16:28.490 --> 00:16:40.490
Yeah, we need something. Because the problem, again, is, okay, right now, if a dog gets put down, aggressive, mainly aggressive dogs,

00:16:40.490 --> 00:16:47.490
Dr. Cotty used to have a company that would pick the dogs up and they would go to the schools to be used.

00:16:47.490 --> 00:16:50.089
used, well, that company is no longer.

00:16:51.490 --> 00:16:55.569
So that bill doesn't have to be paid by somebody.

00:16:55.569 --> 00:17:00.569
So right now, if we do take a city dog over

00:17:00.889 --> 00:17:06.139
and that dog has to be put down, they get the bill.

00:17:06.139 --> 00:17:10.160
And same way with, if it's a county dog, we, Dr. Connie,

00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:13.740
I meant, he basically eats the cost for that.

00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:15.579
So that's another thing we're going to have to think about

00:17:15.579 --> 00:17:18.740
too, is if we have to put a dog down,

00:17:18.740 --> 00:17:22.980
I want to talk to Walker's he's, Dr.

00:17:22.980 --> 00:17:28.480
Connie is still looking for a company, but we don't put that many down, but if

00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:30.139
we do have to put one down,

00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.639
should you commit making sure we'll open on July 1st?

00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:43.319
As long as the dog kennels are here.

00:17:43.360 --> 00:17:43.960
Yes.

00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:49.519
Are in the kennels or not?

00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:51.059
I can have the dogs and everything.

00:17:51.059 --> 00:17:56.299
As long as I have internet, I can have the cats over in the office.

00:17:56.299 --> 00:18:01.200
I don't want this to go any longer than July because we've been paying rent for six months

00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:02.860
without utilizing that building.

00:18:02.860 --> 00:18:08.660
So some way, somehow it needs to be up and going by July 1st.

00:18:08.660 --> 00:18:12.460
The other issue is once you're in that other building, until there's an air governmental

00:18:12.460 --> 00:18:16.400
agreement, severe free report, they call you to pick up a dog or a cat.

00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:17.400
You can't do it.

00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:18.400
Right.

00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:19.400
Okay.

00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:22.759
I don't pick them up anyways. They bring them, but okay.

00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:27.000
Can't accept them. They can't go away until we can work out who's going to pay for it.

00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:29.639
Because you don't have money in your budget to cover that expense.

00:18:29.639 --> 00:18:36.519
No. And honestly, from the people that I'm talking to that live in the city,

00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:45.000
they're not doing any trapping anymore for wildlife or anything. So what is whatever

00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:50.320
for money they're getting and going to for animal control because I mean, they're not

00:18:50.320 --> 00:18:51.320
even doing that.

00:18:51.320 --> 00:18:57.279
But before I get that IGA, if you accept animals before that IGA, I have no like to stand out

00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:58.279
when I'm negotiating with them.

00:18:58.279 --> 00:18:59.279
So that's catch dogs.

00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:00.279
Yep.

00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:08.720
We haven't honestly pulled a dog from them and like I said, these are dogs that just

00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:10.000
we did paperwork for.

00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:13.119
Am I okay to still do the, like we do the paperwork?

00:19:13.119 --> 00:19:14.119
Yeah.

00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:16.119
As long as there's not an expense that's involved.

00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:22.119
No, it's just making sure we have paperwork on them.

00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:25.119
Well, thank you, myself, and I'll call her in the morning.

00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:43.090
Cindy, you're at the bottom of your sheet where it has the endotheliosis.

00:19:43.090 --> 00:19:44.090
Yes.

00:19:44.090 --> 00:19:45.090
Where does that come from?

00:19:45.090 --> 00:19:46.090
I can't recognize that.

00:19:46.090 --> 00:19:47.090
Stephanie.

00:19:47.090 --> 00:19:48.090
Okay.

00:19:48.090 --> 00:19:53.990
or Adrian usually, but Stephanie I think did it because Adrian wasn't in his office when I asked for it.

00:19:56.049 --> 00:19:58.049
So I just put it on.

00:19:58.049 --> 00:20:01.089
So I just put it on the bottom, otherwise it was going to be one sheet by itself and I'm like...

00:20:01.089 --> 00:20:12.690
Well that turns out Helms' monthly report, fund 16, there's 32,600 in it, you have just 35,000.

00:20:12.690 --> 00:20:17.970
That's what she gave me. So it might be like a deposit that wasn't in like that was supposed

00:20:17.970 --> 00:20:23.809
to be for me. There was one deposit I think that I took like the third, so that might be added into

00:20:23.809 --> 00:20:30.529
mind that was technically or I'll pay if I don't, if she doesn't know where it goes,

00:20:31.970 --> 00:20:36.289
I'm thinking that's where it is. The other concern I have is,

00:20:39.789 --> 00:20:49.309
I see she's written by, this is your monthly revenues from each one of the back lines that

00:20:49.309 --> 00:20:54.309
that are collecting, and year to date, it shows we're off $1,000.

00:20:59.150 --> 00:21:02.930
But I looked at the monthly report here from the charger,

00:21:03.869 --> 00:21:07.269
you know, we're down like 9,000 in just the last month.

00:21:08.190 --> 00:21:11.349
So even a month ago, we were just under 42,000,

00:21:11.349 --> 00:21:14.109
we're down to 32,006.

00:21:14.109 --> 00:21:19.069
So just trying to get a feel for where the extra expenses

00:21:19.069 --> 00:21:26.109
come from. I see some gas and I see some other things, but doesn't seem like any

00:21:26.109 --> 00:21:26.630
answers.

00:21:29.029 --> 00:21:32.789
Okay. Might be adding one payroll person to it.

00:21:36.630 --> 00:21:38.869
Perhaps where it is because we don't get, we don't see it.

00:21:38.869 --> 00:21:46.150
Yeah, yeah. Because she's, I don't know what day we ended up. She's been at

00:21:46.150 --> 00:21:47.029
least a month.

00:21:49.069 --> 00:21:50.990
to pay for something.

00:21:50.990 --> 00:21:52.150
Yeah.

00:21:52.150 --> 00:21:54.190
Need to do a little housekeeping on the website

00:21:54.190 --> 00:21:59.190
if they're still showing a number of our donations

00:21:59.309 --> 00:22:00.630
from a while ago.

00:22:00.630 --> 00:22:04.430
Oh, shoot, I should have, oh, do you send that to, yeah.

00:22:04.430 --> 00:22:07.269
So, okay.

00:22:09.630 --> 00:22:12.110
And I know I sent it to everybody about

00:22:12.110 --> 00:22:16.029
AutoSmart wanting to do a pet event for us too.

00:22:16.029 --> 00:22:17.990
And we're looking at August 22nd

00:22:17.990 --> 00:22:19.549
as the date will do it.

00:22:21.230 --> 00:22:23.509
It's just the beginning stages.

00:22:23.509 --> 00:22:27.829
I'm going to try to get K and I to do a demo

00:22:27.829 --> 00:22:30.549
and face painting and stuff like that.

00:22:30.549 --> 00:22:33.069
And then we'll have some of our adoptable dogs out there.

00:22:33.069 --> 00:22:37.509
Depending on what we have for cats, we'll see.

00:22:37.509 --> 00:22:39.549
I mean, they have to be a really special cat

00:22:39.549 --> 00:22:40.889
to be able to go there.

00:22:43.230 --> 00:22:45.029
The dogs will be leashed in that.

00:22:45.029 --> 00:22:46.750
I'm not going to have anybody in crates

00:22:46.750 --> 00:22:50.589
to take the risk of getting free and getting on the road.

00:22:50.589 --> 00:22:53.230
If we do take a cat, they will be harnessed,

00:22:53.230 --> 00:22:56.789
unleashed and in a cage type thing.

00:22:56.789 --> 00:22:58.349
But we're looking at different things

00:22:58.349 --> 00:23:01.410
and we're going to try to get some baskets together

00:23:01.410 --> 00:23:03.950
and do like a raffle type thing.

00:23:03.950 --> 00:23:05.509
Any ideas would be great.

00:23:05.509 --> 00:23:07.650
I'm just trying to think of like different demos

00:23:07.650 --> 00:23:08.750
that people would like.

00:23:08.750 --> 00:23:11.029
I'm going to talk to him.

00:23:11.029 --> 00:23:14.910
There was a lady that brings her sheep

00:23:14.910 --> 00:23:18.549
to the Lion, Lena's Cedarville Lions stuff.

00:23:18.869 --> 00:23:22.389
I thought, well, that'd be kind of cool to have a little petting zoo if he's

00:23:22.389 --> 00:23:23.150
okay with it.

00:23:23.789 --> 00:23:26.150
Everything's like, we just talked about it on Tuesday.

00:23:26.150 --> 00:23:27.630
So everything's fresh.

00:23:29.690 --> 00:23:31.610
Do you have any other fundraising plans?

00:23:32.650 --> 00:23:33.690
Not right now.

00:23:36.650 --> 00:23:38.089
We thought about golf outings.

00:23:44.420 --> 00:23:48.019
I might go and watch the weather for those golfers.

00:23:48.019 --> 00:24:02.180
on a serious note, you should think about other things that you're going to do through the

00:24:02.180 --> 00:24:05.139
summer and doesn't kind of go as fast.

00:24:05.139 --> 00:24:06.139
Yes, it does.

00:24:06.139 --> 00:24:10.579
Well, there's no reason to recreate that we all see what other animals are doing to raise

00:24:10.579 --> 00:24:11.579
money.

00:24:11.579 --> 00:24:12.579
Other counties.

00:24:12.579 --> 00:24:13.579
Sure.

00:24:13.579 --> 00:24:15.779
I'm sure you can piggyback off the golf homings.

00:24:15.779 --> 00:24:16.360
Great idea.

00:24:16.360 --> 00:24:20.019
They're incredibly expensive and incredibly labor intensive too.

00:24:20.779 --> 00:24:21.139
Right.

00:24:21.139 --> 00:24:22.539
You just went to one.

00:24:25.099 --> 00:24:26.180
Well, it's just a lot of work.

00:24:27.019 --> 00:24:29.900
First of all, they raise a lot of money to put together a lot of work.

00:24:32.710 --> 00:24:33.389
Great idea.

00:24:33.829 --> 00:24:35.869
I'm sure Larry went by to do all the work.

00:24:37.710 --> 00:24:43.230
When we're putting this on, if I had any time, anybody else have questions

00:24:43.230 --> 00:24:44.470
for Kristen at this time?

00:24:44.470 --> 00:24:52.519
Can I ask how much we're in the claims for animal property approved tonight?

00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:57.519
Per animal control specifically, just animal.

00:24:57.519 --> 00:25:02.519
She said $2,479.07.

00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:17.259
That's with an old thing that I've missed on VAS.

00:25:17.259 --> 00:25:27.019
We will be talking about this again a little bit later in the meeting, but do you have

00:25:27.019 --> 00:25:31.440
a firm handle on the installation of the fiber optics?

00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:37.779
I think Vaughn signed the contract, so it's in Nate's hands now.

00:25:37.779 --> 00:25:39.380
Monday, next week.

00:25:39.380 --> 00:25:40.380
Did you say?

00:25:40.380 --> 00:25:41.380
Have you talked to him?

00:25:41.380 --> 00:25:46.259
I know he told me that he confirmed that he had gotten a signed document and sent it to

00:25:46.259 --> 00:25:59.819
I just know that she said, I figured out how to sign it because she wasn't going to come

00:25:59.819 --> 00:26:00.819
down and sign it.

00:26:00.819 --> 00:26:02.299
She was able to do it online.

00:26:02.299 --> 00:26:08.309
How is your point of reference to life versus three weeks from yesterday?

00:26:08.309 --> 00:26:08.809
Yeah.

00:26:16.099 --> 00:26:17.599
Everybody else is good.

00:26:19.099 --> 00:26:20.099
Moving on.

00:26:21.099 --> 00:26:23.099
6.2 is the highway department.

00:26:28.099 --> 00:26:33.599
Last month we paved on McConnell Road between a Fulke and Dakota Road.

00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.099
We paved three quarters of a mile for Rock Grove townships.

00:26:37.099 --> 00:26:46.619
We've done some ditch cleaning on Warren Road, South Kent Road, shoulder stone on McConnell

00:26:46.619 --> 00:26:53.900
Road and Bolton Road, straight in front of probably 3-4c guardrail we have a little bit

00:26:53.900 --> 00:27:01.619
left to do, been mowing and then some tree cleanup from storms and of course patching

00:27:01.619 --> 00:27:02.619
the potholes.

00:27:02.619 --> 00:27:09.900
Helms. How much road did you go on Rock Road for? On what? Rock Road. For Rock Road Township?

00:27:09.900 --> 00:27:20.089
Yeah. About three or four miles. Yeah. Other than that, it's best done per month.

00:27:21.849 --> 00:27:25.130
Questions for you? Go ahead. Thank you.

00:27:27.610 --> 00:27:33.130
Okay, you got your highway department update. I've highlighted any changes from the last month.

00:27:33.130 --> 00:27:40.089
and there are things that we'll do with Lowbitter for West Point and Red Road crossing project,

00:27:40.089 --> 00:27:45.690
Martin's Lowbitter for the West Point Township Bridge project, and then the joint agreement

00:27:45.690 --> 00:27:50.569
will be locally executed for the McConnell Road project. And then those are all action items

00:27:50.569 --> 00:27:55.610
that comes up within the agenda. Pavement preservation program. When I came here,

00:27:55.610 --> 00:28:00.610
Here we set up a six-year program for pavement preservation.

00:28:01.369 --> 00:28:05.170
Pavement preservation, the measures we did to preserve it

00:28:05.170 --> 00:28:08.250
was either seal-cold work or coiled-slate recycling,

00:28:08.250 --> 00:28:10.130
coiled-slate recycling.

00:28:10.130 --> 00:28:13.329
You can tell it about four inches of material

00:28:13.329 --> 00:28:15.809
and oil to it, lay it back down,

00:28:15.809 --> 00:28:17.610
then we do a double-field over it.

00:28:18.529 --> 00:28:22.849
Then we extended that a couple, two or three years ago

00:28:22.849 --> 00:28:27.630
that took it all the way through next year.

00:28:27.630 --> 00:28:30.950
So we just put together a new program

00:28:30.950 --> 00:28:32.670
that should go beyond that.

00:28:34.029 --> 00:28:37.710
So it's something, you end up sending the whole program

00:28:37.710 --> 00:28:40.230
to IDOT and they have to approve it.

00:28:40.230 --> 00:28:42.750
If you remember with the previous one,

00:28:42.750 --> 00:28:45.750
anything that required full decked or maintenance,

00:28:45.750 --> 00:28:48.110
there's nothing there to preserve, it's already gone.

00:28:48.110 --> 00:28:50.630
So we don't use the pavement preservation program

00:28:50.630 --> 00:28:51.590
to fix them.

00:28:51.590 --> 00:29:01.590
So we got, at the time of the original program, we had like $14, $16 million worth of unfunded projects that we couldn't, didn't have money for.

00:29:01.590 --> 00:29:09.590
So we found special funding for them. It came from the general funds. There was a program that I had put out, there were RBI funds.

00:29:09.590 --> 00:29:18.590
We had some COVID relief funds and money for the general fund. And then I had another program for local project funds.

00:29:18.590 --> 00:29:27.590
So, with that special funding, we were able to take care of Baileyville Road from Montague up to Lamb Road.

00:29:27.590 --> 00:29:33.150
We did all of Cedarville from, well, we're going to be finishing up the last section of that.

00:29:33.150 --> 00:29:40.789
It goes from Galena Road all the way over to Route 26, and then McConnell Road from 26th over to Affolk.

00:29:40.789 --> 00:29:43.750
We had special funding for those.

00:29:43.750 --> 00:29:47.110
didn't have any money to do the Cobra Road or Rock Road roads,

00:29:47.110 --> 00:29:49.070
so we carried those over.

00:29:49.070 --> 00:29:53.750
And then if you look at the new program,

00:29:53.750 --> 00:29:56.029
I'll kind of go over the criteria that was.

00:29:56.029 --> 00:29:57.859
I'll kind of go over the criteria that we set up for this.

00:29:57.859 --> 00:30:00.059
We have an increase of,

00:30:00.059 --> 00:30:01.339
when I set up the original program

00:30:01.339 --> 00:30:04.339
was for $750,000 a year.

00:30:04.339 --> 00:30:07.019
We're getting an increase of federal funds

00:30:07.019 --> 00:30:09.460
so we can do about a million dollars a year.

00:30:09.460 --> 00:30:11.299
And then federal funds are 80-20.

00:30:11.299 --> 00:30:15.940
So I'll say it's $800,000 a year in federal funds

00:30:15.940 --> 00:30:19.200
with a $200,000 match.

00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:21.599
So our criteria was to,

00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:24.000
we wanted to do a seal coat every year

00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:28.200
and then excuse me, a cold blade recycling every year.

00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:33.200
And then any place, anything that we did CIR last year

00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:35.759
you want to put a third seal coat on top of that

00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:36.720
to help preserve it.

00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:41.039
So our criteria was CIR first

00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:45.000
and then we did some seal coat work afterwards.

00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:47.480
So we prioritize the projects

00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:50.519
by the condition of the pavement

00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:52.160
and the traffic count.

00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:53.000
Our traffic count,

00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:55.240
we want to take care of those roads first.

00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:58.640
So we set up a new program.

00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:02.039
And I know the chart just probably doesn't mean too much

00:31:02.039 --> 00:31:04.759
to you, but we use all this information

00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:08.640
to help us put together our needs.

00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:13.640
So, but Scott, myself and Kate went through

00:31:13.640 --> 00:31:17.039
and evaluated all the roads in the county

00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:19.920
and that about the eighth column over is the CR.

00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:21.799
that's a condition rating.

00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:25.839
Condition rating goes from zero in terrible pavement

00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:27.259
to 90 in perfect.

00:31:27.259 --> 00:31:30.500
So if you see, we went through and looked at

00:31:30.500 --> 00:31:35.500
what the pavement looked like when the first time around

00:31:36.839 --> 00:31:39.380
we had nothing worse than about a four,

00:31:39.380 --> 00:31:41.680
McConnell Road dropped down to a three one time.

00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:47.039
We see now our roads are, the worst is about is a five.

00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:48.640
So that's why it's up in the top

00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:50.640
and we want to get those things taken care of.

00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:53.200
And then we looked at the condition of the roadway

00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:55.880
and then we also have to look at what you need to do

00:31:55.880 --> 00:31:58.440
to fix it, whether it's cold place recycling

00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:00.220
or all of these is a seal coat.

00:32:01.319 --> 00:32:02.880
And then at the bottom, the yellow,

00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:06.279
you can see the ones that do require

00:32:06.279 --> 00:32:11.000
a full debt reclamation and we've got about $7 million

00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:14.839
worth of unfunded full debt reclamation projects.

00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:30.839
DeSoto Road is still there. Rock Grover Road is still there. We've added a new section, McConnell Road, because it's getting a lot of truck traffic from burner food. So this is not part of what we've done before, but it's the next section over.

00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:37.480
and then Galena Road is breaking up so we need to do a full best reclamation for that.

00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.720
So now we're looking where we had $14 to $16 million before and now we're cut that

00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:44.279
about in half.

00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:48.079
But it is money that is unfunded or projects that are unfunded.

00:32:48.079 --> 00:32:52.480
So over time, this is what we will need to fix.

00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:59.240
If you have any questions on it, let me know and then we will be finishing up the paperwork

00:32:59.240 --> 00:33:04.240
can send that in to IDAF for their approval.

00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:06.079
Making good progress.

00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.119
Making good progress, I'd say.

00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:10.119
I think we have, thank you.

00:33:10.119 --> 00:33:14.319
We packed away a lot of them on the rows of the county, so.

00:33:19.759 --> 00:33:21.440
Okay, that's it.

00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:24.589
Any questions for Dale?

00:33:24.589 --> 00:33:26.990
Oh, I guess, you know, I know it's coming up

00:33:26.990 --> 00:33:28.910
in the other, at the end of the agenda,

00:33:28.910 --> 00:33:51.750
I'm a lot more optimistic now that we have this joint agreement.

00:33:51.750 --> 00:33:55.670
We were the joint agreement for the Cedarville Road, the same kind of funding.

00:33:55.670 --> 00:34:02.789
and it took a long time for them to get it out and I kind of put the bug in there and it worked

00:34:03.670 --> 00:34:08.150
and they got it they got the joint agreement out and then they followed up right away with the joint

00:34:08.150 --> 00:34:15.110
agreement for this month. Once we got the joint agreement both parties executed then we can go to

00:34:15.110 --> 00:34:20.789
letting. The plans are the final plans are in with IDOT. Once they approve the final plans we can go

00:34:20.789 --> 00:34:27.889
when both parties execute this, let me see, this is June, I would say we can probably

00:34:27.889 --> 00:34:34.510
go to Lenin by September, possibly into August, so.

00:34:34.510 --> 00:34:38.789
And does the committee complete the project before the end of 26?

00:34:38.789 --> 00:34:41.789
I'm hoping, yes.

00:34:41.789 --> 00:34:44.789
I love your optimism.

00:34:44.789 --> 00:34:46.789
Okay, thank you.

00:34:46.789 --> 00:34:50.380
Sure.

00:34:50.380 --> 00:34:53.300
Anybody else?

00:34:53.300 --> 00:34:55.300
First budget steps, Brian?

00:34:55.300 --> 00:35:01.300
I talked with Dale this morning. Everything's still looking good.

00:35:01.300 --> 00:35:08.300
We've kind of got delayed on some of the projects. We haven't gotten any big invoices yet.

00:35:08.300 --> 00:35:17.300
We're anticipating that next month we'll start getting some bigger invoice totals coming through.

00:35:17.300 --> 00:35:22.300
We did, I just did do a deposit for the Shippey Road bridge.

00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:27.840
I got, finally, I got payment to us.

00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:31.699
So I just deposited $641,000.

00:35:31.699 --> 00:35:35.679
So that will get to the Township bridge program.

00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:38.679
So that will help with the county bridge balance.

00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:44.659
So, yeah, well, so,

00:35:44.659 --> 00:35:55.590
and we have the guardrail invoice that's coming in this month that will be due next month that will be a fairly large but

00:35:57.510 --> 00:36:04.550
and that everything else right now is looking good under budget we're happy to do this evening

00:36:06.309 --> 00:36:11.510
speaking of guardrails uh the only need to visit this probably twice a year is

00:36:11.510 --> 00:36:32.389
I did, but not recently. It was like court fees of like $135. Other than that, I didn't

00:36:32.389 --> 00:36:39.389
I didn't see anything else. I could talk about her and follow up on Carl again.

00:36:39.389 --> 00:36:43.389
Like I said, I haven't answered before I asked the question.

00:36:43.389 --> 00:36:51.389
There hasn't been. I haven't gotten any. I know the last time I talked to Chanel, she said that.

00:36:51.389 --> 00:36:58.389
I think that they suggested and they had it paid by like July, but I don't see that.

00:36:58.389 --> 00:37:22.389
We went through all the steps, since it was like a DUI case or whatever, I think they had more authority, but just the way that it seemed, I didn't think we would see much more of anything, but I'll go with Carl here.

00:37:22.389 --> 00:37:28.389
So who prosecuted that on our behalf as a column?

00:37:28.389 --> 00:37:30.389
I believe so.

00:37:30.389 --> 00:37:33.389
Well, we were in the summary judgment room.

00:37:33.389 --> 00:37:34.389
Yeah.

00:37:34.389 --> 00:37:38.389
I thought it was done through the DUI cases, prostitution.

00:37:38.389 --> 00:37:40.389
Oh no, that's why I'm asking.

00:37:40.389 --> 00:37:42.389
I don't know, maybe I'm...

00:37:42.389 --> 00:37:45.389
It wasn't Carl, of course, and it was somebody else in his office, I remember.

00:37:45.389 --> 00:37:46.389
But the stakes, curiously.

00:37:46.389 --> 00:37:48.389
Yes, yeah.

00:37:48.389 --> 00:37:50.389
Because I was there as a witness at that point.

00:37:50.389 --> 00:37:53.029
Summary judgments are good for either five or seven years.

00:37:53.029 --> 00:37:55.989
I don't remember which, but they've got to be renewed

00:37:55.989 --> 00:37:58.070
at the end of that, stay active.

00:37:58.070 --> 00:38:00.110
Otherwise they just go away.

00:38:00.110 --> 00:38:02.309
But if there was a fine form of pay,

00:38:02.309 --> 00:38:06.309
we can have them do a motion to discover assets.

00:38:06.309 --> 00:38:08.470
I think you talked about that.

00:38:08.470 --> 00:38:10.710
Which will make him come back into court.

00:38:10.710 --> 00:38:17.099
And we, I brought that up to Carl and Chanel

00:38:17.099 --> 00:38:22.110
and because I remember bringing that up

00:38:22.110 --> 00:38:26.590
and that's when they said I'd have to look at wording

00:38:26.590 --> 00:38:31.590
and stuff like what the judgment that it was.

00:38:33.470 --> 00:38:34.710
You don't have to look at it right now.

00:38:34.710 --> 00:38:35.989
Well, I'll get back to you.

00:38:35.989 --> 00:38:38.590
My preference is if we were awarded the summary judgment,

00:38:38.590 --> 00:38:42.150
he's missed a deadline that we do a motion for stellar assets.

00:38:42.150 --> 00:38:44.829
Once you do that, you can also do a wage garnishing.

00:38:44.829 --> 00:38:46.369
Yeah.

00:38:46.369 --> 00:38:51.029
Okay, let me look into that and I'll get back to you

00:38:51.029 --> 00:38:55.349
because I know I brought that up to him, return to Shannalpa.

00:38:55.349 --> 00:39:01.849
We're the client of this, so if he's got a question about it,

00:39:01.849 --> 00:39:04.869
I guess you could have him talk to me, too,

00:39:04.869 --> 00:39:07.429
if that's something that you want.

00:39:07.429 --> 00:39:13.529
Okay, I'll follow up with him and let Shannalpa know.

00:39:13.529 --> 00:39:16.429
Thank you, Brian.

00:39:16.429 --> 00:39:18.170
740 is the old business,

00:39:18.170 --> 00:39:20.690
which we don't have it for this evening.

00:39:20.690 --> 00:39:25.690
and if iron 8.0 is new business, 8.1 is discussed

00:39:26.849 --> 00:39:28.449
through the first dependent

00:39:28.449 --> 00:39:30.750
to the natural wood spur metals dryer.

00:39:34.130 --> 00:39:39.130
So we're adding the $160 monthly fee for the internet.

00:39:40.730 --> 00:39:42.570
The owners of the property are paying

00:39:42.570 --> 00:39:45.529
for the installation costs

00:39:45.529 --> 00:39:49.769
and then we'll just have the 160 a month.

00:39:50.690 --> 00:39:52.690
Thank you for watching!

00:39:52.690 --> 00:40:03.500
and if we pull out, then they will obviously take that 160 for themselves to pay that.

00:40:03.500 --> 00:40:14.500
One more background on it. If you compare it in the last couple of weeks, we didn't have internet at the building and there was no internet in the building.

00:40:14.500 --> 00:40:20.500
The closest was down at the end of the street.

00:40:20.500 --> 00:40:30.699
and so Nate checked with Arrow and we had to trash it in and it can be fairly expensive

00:40:30.699 --> 00:40:37.340
as ever and Christian checked with the landlords and they agreed to pay for the delivery of

00:40:37.340 --> 00:40:41.139
the fiber optic cable.

00:40:41.139 --> 00:40:50.300
But then there was a reoccurring monthly fee as well that went with this quote and so that

00:40:50.300 --> 00:40:52.199
felt it was ours to pay.

00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:54.760
So what the addendum does is add that

00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:57.360
into the base agreement we had

00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:00.559
and varies it up time-wise

00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:03.780
to the length of our contract with them.

00:41:05.239 --> 00:41:10.159
So if we get past three or four years

00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:12.360
and we're looking at year four or five,

00:41:12.360 --> 00:41:14.280
then we could redo the contract,

00:41:14.280 --> 00:41:19.280
but the landlords will be responsible

00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:22.460
are responsible for the lease agreement.

00:41:22.460 --> 00:41:25.460
We started the monthly reoccurring fees.

00:41:25.460 --> 00:41:28.539
They will be responsible for that at this point

00:41:28.539 --> 00:41:30.980
for year four and year five is our lease

00:41:30.980 --> 00:41:35.989
and our obligation to add to the status ratio.

00:41:35.989 --> 00:41:36.829
Any questions?

00:41:36.829 --> 00:41:38.989
So item number four down there,

00:41:38.989 --> 00:41:42.030
number five, I guess it is.

00:41:42.030 --> 00:41:44.429
Do we know what the family termination thing is

00:41:44.429 --> 00:41:47.389
if we, for some reason, that terminate?

00:41:47.389 --> 00:42:09.750
Are you serious? I don't remember. I don't think there was one. I can look it up on the

00:42:09.750 --> 00:42:10.750
website I guess.

00:42:10.750 --> 00:42:33.809
The other thing you can do is make a motion to amend it and remove it.

00:42:33.809 --> 00:42:41.130
You can let them know that the board or the committee is not excited about termination

00:42:41.130 --> 00:42:42.130
fee.

00:42:42.130 --> 00:42:46.050
Find out how much there is if it's something that the property owner is not willing to

00:42:46.050 --> 00:42:47.050
waive.

00:42:47.050 --> 00:42:52.409
So you can present that to the county board on Thursday when it goes and make an amending

00:42:52.409 --> 00:43:24.659
clause and put it out here and put it back in if you go that way.

00:43:24.659 --> 00:43:41.659
I guess we can bar in any future developments, I'll make a motion to approve if we can tweak it as information comes at the full board, but in the interest of getting more eyes on this, I'll make a motion to approve as is.

00:43:41.659 --> 00:43:46.659
I'll second it.

00:43:46.659 --> 00:43:54.099
So I have a motion to approve the addendum as is in a second as well for Mr. Grovers. Any other

00:43:54.099 --> 00:44:03.219
previous discussion? Any comments you'd like to make? It seems like a reasonable back and forth

00:44:03.219 --> 00:44:15.220
between the landowners and us. All things considered. Yes. Okay. All those in favor of

00:44:15.220 --> 00:44:34.170
Adopting the first item, motion is approved. Item 8.2 is the Discussion and Approval of the Memorandum of Understandings of West Hill Township and the State of Wisconsin.

00:44:34.170 --> 00:44:47.170
Okay, this is the Memorandum of Understanding that the Federal Highway Administration is requiring all parties to sign it. This is for structures that are on state lines.

00:44:47.170 --> 00:44:53.409
So there's two bridges that are in Winslow Township in Samson County in the County of Wayne and

00:44:53.970 --> 00:45:01.090
Lafayette County in Wisconsin. A bridge office has reviewed this. Carl has reviewed it.

00:45:01.970 --> 00:45:07.250
So it just basically does not impact the county any because

00:45:10.130 --> 00:45:16.369
both bridges are the responsibility of Wisconsin to inspect them. So this is just a memorandum

00:45:16.369 --> 00:45:21.570
understanding the state of, we concur with them due to the impact.

00:45:22.210 --> 00:45:24.690
It goes further than just inspection, right?

00:45:25.809 --> 00:45:30.529
It says maintenance responsibility, so if it had to be fixed or renewed, I would be them.

00:45:30.529 --> 00:45:31.730
Yeah, better.

00:45:31.730 --> 00:45:33.329
We all agree, it's not a loss.

00:45:38.929 --> 00:45:42.210
Yeah, that's right. It doesn't make a difference in the fact that it's kind of positive.

00:45:44.769 --> 00:45:45.570
Any questions?

00:45:46.369 --> 00:45:55.369
I have a motion for Mr. Jogerst to approve and a second by Mr. Newton. Any other discussion?

00:45:55.369 --> 00:45:59.369
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye. Aye. Motion is approved.

00:45:59.369 --> 00:46:05.369
I have a motion to sign. The only sign. Not for us.

00:46:05.369 --> 00:46:11.369
We'll go through and draw. All right. 8.3 discussion of the bid caps.

00:46:11.369 --> 00:46:21.449
Okay, we had two lettings this past week. One was for, first one is for Wet Point Township.

00:46:21.449 --> 00:46:30.369
This is a township bridge. It's 100% funding from DBP, so it's no impact to the county

00:46:30.369 --> 00:46:40.369
at all. All four low bids came in over the engineer's estimate, but it'll still all just

00:46:40.369 --> 00:47:00.989
Pay for the bridge program funds. I recommend alerting it to Spartan Company. That will come up later in under 26-11, between 26-11.

00:47:00.989 --> 00:47:10.989
The other thing that we had was for a great crossing in West Point Township.

00:47:10.989 --> 00:47:21.989
It was at north five quarters. The ICC is requiring the township to build the road up to meet the new crossing.

00:47:21.989 --> 00:47:26.989
And they're going to be putting new signals and stuff there in a new crossing.

00:47:26.989 --> 00:47:42.989
We just need to build the road up to it, so we did the plans in-house, the load bid, or the engineers asking for $83,000, and load bid for significant wells on $118,000 over that.

00:47:42.989 --> 00:47:55.989
I've put in a request to the ICC for something about funding for it, and this is all paid for with great crossing protection funds. So once again, there's no cost to the county.

00:47:55.989 --> 00:48:06.679
and if there is, if they end up not authorizing additional funds, it's still in the Township of Nothin' County.

00:48:10.309 --> 00:48:12.309
And that's it. Well, that's all I have to say.

00:48:12.309 --> 00:48:14.309
Can I ask a question?

00:48:14.309 --> 00:48:16.309
Absolutely.

00:48:16.309 --> 00:48:21.309
Do you have anything that you would chalk up those overbids to?

00:48:21.309 --> 00:48:24.309
Usually, the engineers are pretty spot on, but...

00:48:24.309 --> 00:48:32.470
Normally, the consultant did the engineer assessment on the bridge project.

00:48:32.470 --> 00:48:37.949
I'm seeing the last few lettings that are coming in over.

00:48:37.949 --> 00:48:43.110
Now this one, the river crossing, it's a very small project.

00:48:43.110 --> 00:48:49.190
So the unit price for asphalt and aggregate goes up and you don't have as much material.

00:48:49.190 --> 00:48:55.630
So, I attribute that to the overall number on that small project.

00:48:55.630 --> 00:48:56.630
So, yes.

00:48:56.630 --> 00:49:05.349
And also, if you look at that, it's about halfway down the list here of items of precast

00:49:05.349 --> 00:49:12.029
and pre-stressed concrete that very means there's $60,000 of difference between the

00:49:12.029 --> 00:49:30.029
We based, as an engineer, you base your estimates on historical, when the contract, particularly

00:49:30.029 --> 00:49:35.029
for free-stressed beams, they're getting the bid right from the manufacturer, so they know

00:49:35.029 --> 00:49:37.989
exactly what the cost will be at that time.

00:49:37.989 --> 00:49:51.920
Any other questions before we move on?

00:49:51.920 --> 00:49:55.280
Any other questions before we move on? We will return to this as an action item a little bit later.

00:49:59.179 --> 00:50:07.500
Okay, so 8.4 is the discussion and approval of the joint agreement, HD 469.

00:50:07.500 --> 00:50:17.739
Yeah, this is for the McConnell Road, Route 26 intersection. Once again, it's 100% funding from

00:50:17.739 --> 00:50:23.900
local project funding that was in the county. It was competitive. I mean, we rewarded that

00:50:24.539 --> 00:50:30.539
project. So they asked for some money in there just in case there's a thing goes over what's covered

00:50:30.539 --> 00:50:39.099
by the local project funding. So we have 30,000 in there. I anticipate we should be able to do it

00:50:39.099 --> 00:51:05.090
Any discussion on this? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye. Motion is approved.

00:51:05.090 --> 00:52:38.980
So we have an 8.4, which is, oh, sorry, 8.5, HD 2611, Township, British, Baptist Mission,

00:52:38.980 --> 00:52:41.980
we talked about it earlier.

00:52:41.980 --> 00:52:42.980
I have a motion to approve.

00:52:42.980 --> 00:52:43.980
Motion to approve.

00:52:43.980 --> 00:52:46.980
Mr. Noonan, seconded by Mr. Jogerst.

00:52:46.980 --> 00:52:47.980
Any discussion?

00:52:47.980 --> 00:52:50.980
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:52:50.980 --> 00:52:51.980
Aye.

00:52:51.980 --> 00:52:56.670
Motion is approved.

00:52:56.670 --> 00:54:29.369
I'll let Scott or Brian talk about it, it was a bid from MineralTruck under the SourceBull

00:54:29.369 --> 00:54:42.409
contract. I thought it was pretty much right in line with what I expected. I did add a few things

00:54:42.409 --> 00:54:50.329
that were not on the last bid. One was I switched from an old style gear pump to a

00:54:51.050 --> 00:54:57.369
load sense pump on truck. It's a more modern, basically it's what everyone's running. I

00:54:57.369 --> 00:55:06.730
things that were about the last county or one of the few last run of basic pump and parts are

00:55:06.730 --> 00:55:14.809
getting parts to come by with some of those older style things. I also added a tarp to it to be

00:55:14.809 --> 00:55:21.610
installed up there. Normally we did it at the shop, but it tends to get a little confusing when you

00:55:21.610 --> 00:55:28.170
have the truck up there and they're welding brackets on the truck for something that they're

00:55:28.170 --> 00:55:34.250
not mounting. So if they have it in front of them, it's easier to put brackets and some of the tie

00:55:34.250 --> 00:55:44.090
downs on right there. And then another thing that added to the cost, their labor, I think from 23

00:55:44.090 --> 00:56:14.090
$20 an hour. They went from $140 an hour to $160. So total cost, I think our last bid was $114,000, $115,000, somewhere in there. And this one was $135,000, is that right? So it was like $13,500 just in stuff that I added. So if you add 10% for every

00:56:14.090 --> 00:56:41.090
I'm going to say it will be next fall, fall of 27th, before they give it to us.

00:56:41.090 --> 00:56:44.090
and when do we expect the truck?

00:56:45.889 --> 00:56:48.130
The truck is sitting in the room waiting.

00:56:49.130 --> 00:56:50.449
Oh my God.

00:56:50.449 --> 00:56:53.849
And things have changed a lot.

00:56:53.849 --> 00:56:59.130
I thought the salesman from Monroe said now what he's starting to see is

00:57:00.970 --> 00:57:05.250
they're bidding the snow and ice equipment before they're actually bidding

00:57:05.250 --> 00:57:07.329
the cabin chassis down.

00:57:07.329 --> 00:57:09.610
They're bidding that out since it's so far out.

00:57:09.610 --> 00:57:19.329
and then they, they're getting the cabin chassis after the fact. So it's, it's a real, it's

00:57:19.329 --> 00:57:26.090
a real screwed up process. I apologize. No, we do not have that cabin chassis. I mix it

00:57:26.090 --> 00:57:33.130
up with the last one. It's the end, the end of this year is when we'll see it. I think

00:57:33.130 --> 00:57:38.210
When I talked to him, he said somewhere in November-ish, December.

00:57:38.210 --> 00:57:43.730
We just, we just, or like recently purchased that, right?

00:57:43.730 --> 00:57:48.529
Yeah, we just took, yeah, it was March.

00:57:48.529 --> 00:57:49.529
Yeah, it was this year.

00:57:49.529 --> 00:57:51.130
I believe, yeah.

00:57:51.130 --> 00:58:00.730
So, Kevin Chastie is in the budget for this year, but this would fall in probably 27.

00:58:00.730 --> 00:58:03.329
When do we pay for the Trump?

00:58:03.329 --> 00:58:09.889
when is it technically delivered after the equipment's been put on it or before that

00:58:09.889 --> 00:58:16.130
and it's sold before? We pay for the cabin chassis when it's delivered to Monroe when

00:58:16.130 --> 00:58:20.610
Freightliner releases it or the dealer Truck Hunter releases it, we pay for the cabin chassis.

00:58:21.409 --> 00:58:31.970
The good thing is they do not start the warranty until we contact them with snow and ice equipment

00:58:31.970 --> 00:58:39.650
installed. Because the last one we got, there's a few minor things I want to do to that yet before

00:58:39.650 --> 00:58:46.529
we start using them. And I haven't started the warranty yet. So the salesman actually called me

00:58:46.529 --> 00:58:53.650
and asked me if it was in service. I said no. So we're going to hold off and pay you in the next

00:58:53.650 --> 00:59:14.650
when did you anticipate the equipment being installed fall of 2017 did you say or?

00:59:14.650 --> 00:59:21.809
so it will sit up sit up there for about 10 months probably yes well it's crazy I mean

00:59:21.809 --> 00:59:26.529
I don't know if any of you have been out there, but if there's a hill behind there, the whole

00:59:26.529 --> 00:59:29.130
hill is just plastered with cattle chances.

00:59:29.130 --> 00:59:36.690
I'll bet they have hundreds, oh yeah, maybe three, four hundred of them sit up there,

00:59:36.690 --> 00:59:40.610
take their stuff down by Banger State, sit there too.

00:59:40.610 --> 00:59:45.849
They've opened up another facility, trying to put equipment on, there's a room and they're

00:59:45.849 --> 00:59:50.010
transporting some of the stuff to different facilities like in Julia.

00:59:50.010 --> 01:00:04.000
Facilities like in Joliet, I think one over by and a lot of the employees trying to, and Vanell's no better in Monroe, or Dixon, they're, they're out over well over a year or two.

01:00:04.000 --> 01:00:15.460
So, and so what's the bottleneck of that? Why is it so, why does it take so long?

01:00:15.460 --> 01:00:41.780
I think from COVID there was a backup where they were waiting on all these trucks on these chassis and then the chassis started coming in, flooded them and all these builders and they just have never caught up since.

01:00:41.780 --> 01:01:11.659
And honestly, I think they have the same problem everyone has is the turnover rate is for their help is crazy. And it's not something building trucks like that's not an easy job. I mean, you have to have somebody to oversee what's going on. It's, it's not just bolt a box on a frame and it's hydraulics, it's electric, you know, there's

01:01:11.659 --> 01:01:18.460
there's a lot going on with that, so I don't know how they, it's got to be tough for them, but

01:01:19.900 --> 01:01:23.179
that seems like it's the way of the world and I'm unfortunate.

01:01:25.019 --> 01:01:31.179
All right, now that that's a good excuse, it's the one that I heard, so.

01:01:35.019 --> 01:01:43.530
Any other questions? I'd like to go to the committee. Make a motion for Mr. Jogerst to approve,

01:01:43.530 --> 01:02:40.280
and second, I'll get through this reminder all. Further discussion? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye, aye,

01:02:40.280 --> 01:02:58.119
I'm not on the committee, but I did want to update everybody on the Sheriff and Crime Suppression Unit has been trained to operate portable scales, and they already have their first ticket slash arrest.

01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:05.599
They got a dump truck up by Dakota, I believe that was stealing rock out of a quarry.

01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:09.280
Is there a quarry up in Dakota? Dakota or Davis? One of those?

01:03:09.280 --> 01:03:22.360
Davis. So the guy tandem axle, 28,000 pounds per axle, no driver's license, no truck license,

01:03:22.360 --> 01:03:27.760
no insurance, overweight, while stealing the rock out of the quarry. So he was actually

01:03:27.760 --> 01:03:34.480
going in there at night, operating backhoe, I'm assuming, loading the trucks up, driving

01:03:34.480 --> 01:03:57.480
Now, because of, I know I'm going to say this wrong, so please don't judge me on it, the pre-trial part of the Safety Act, regardless, it was Friday, he wrote him all the tickets and had to release it and release the truck as well.

01:03:57.480 --> 01:04:08.480
So, don't think he's stealing necessarily. He's operating. That, that just, I can't get high on his truck. They can't, yeah, they didn't impound on the truck.

01:04:08.480 --> 01:04:12.480
They let him drive, drive away in the truck, even though he had no license.

01:04:12.480 --> 01:04:16.480
All the time, apparently. That's how it's required to go.

01:04:16.480 --> 01:04:20.480
No insurance either. I'm more worried about not having insurance.

01:04:20.480 --> 01:04:21.480
Assurance, license, all that stuff.

01:04:21.480 --> 01:04:25.480
Even if he had insurance, if he's not licensed, the insurance would never pay a claim to anything.

01:04:25.480 --> 01:04:33.480
But the good part of that is they were up and operating and they got their first person sold.

01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:39.480
We have the ability to operate.

01:04:39.480 --> 01:04:43.480
It just kept going.

01:04:43.480 --> 01:04:51.480
Apparently the scales aren't that expensive. It's getting the training done, but the state police didn't train.

01:04:51.480 --> 01:04:58.599
That's one thing where government is vast and effective. Is that 60 days?

01:04:58.599 --> 01:05:03.720
Wow, that's crazy. I think they're going to park outside of Nueces Torqueso now.

01:05:07.880 --> 01:05:10.279
Well, you don't think they're going to back down to 80,000?

01:05:11.079 --> 01:05:11.720
I don't know.

01:05:11.720 --> 01:05:12.840
When do you get that email?

01:05:12.840 --> 01:05:31.110
So anyway, car expression unit isn't just focusing on overweight trucks, but they got a tip on this one, so I'll tell you.

01:05:31.110 --> 01:05:33.110
They had the ability to.

01:05:33.110 --> 01:05:35.110
Yep, absolutely.

01:05:35.110 --> 01:05:38.110
Well, this wasn't just an overweight truck.

01:05:38.110 --> 01:05:43.110
That's all we thought it was, for sure, yes, or it dealt you far worse.

01:05:43.110 --> 01:05:47.110
And you know, it wasn't just that one night that it was still in there?

01:05:47.110 --> 01:05:49.110
No, he's been doing it a long time.

01:05:49.110 --> 01:05:50.110
And they're just out.

01:05:50.110 --> 01:05:51.110
Why?

01:05:51.110 --> 01:05:53.110
Because my first question is, how's he loading the truck?

01:05:53.110 --> 01:05:57.110
It's like, well, he's operating the backhoe.

01:05:57.110 --> 01:05:58.110
Wow.

01:05:58.110 --> 01:05:59.110
That's fancy.

01:05:59.110 --> 01:06:00.110
That's enterprising.

01:06:00.110 --> 01:06:01.110
Yeah.

01:06:01.110 --> 01:06:02.110
And illegal.

01:06:02.110 --> 01:06:03.110
Crazy.

01:06:03.110 --> 01:06:04.110
Any other comments?

01:06:04.110 --> 01:06:05.110
It's not crazy.

01:06:05.110 --> 01:06:11.909
Krazy. Any other comments from that? It's not Krazy. Not that one.

01:06:17.909 --> 01:06:22.150
Motion to adjourn? So moved. So those guys have been very

01:06:22.150 --> 01:06:27.510
sacrificial to us today. All those in favor? Aye. Aye. Thank you everyone.

01:06:27.510 --> 01:06:29.510
and a family that's sad.
