WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.279
Madigan's pretty good. I know. This is great. We don't lie.

00:00:09.810 --> 00:00:14.810
Okay, let's get started with the finance committee Monday, April

00:00:14.810 --> 00:00:22.250
13th, 2026 at 6pm. 2.0 prayer. Anybody like to do that? No. Okay,

00:00:22.250 --> 00:00:25.309
I'll do that. Dear Heavenly Father, we just ask for your

00:00:25.309 --> 00:00:29.449
guidance and help with the agenda tonight. Lead us to the

00:00:29.449 --> 00:00:33.409
right decisions for the best interests of the folks of this

00:00:33.409 --> 00:00:39.890
County. We just thank you for the rain and we just ask for a good planting season for

00:00:39.890 --> 00:00:45.570
the farmers and safety for them as well. With that, we thank you and we love you and Jesus

00:00:45.570 --> 00:00:51.609
thank you. Amen. Amen. All right. So 3.0, approval of the agenda. So moved. Okay. Yes.

00:00:51.609 --> 00:00:59.170
Okay. Any special needs? Otherwise we'll vote. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Opposed?

00:00:59.170 --> 00:01:05.650
sign. All right. 4.0, review and approval of meeting minutes from March 16th, 2026 meeting.

00:01:06.290 --> 00:01:08.849
Motion to approve. Okay. Second.

00:01:11.489 --> 00:01:19.730
Team in conversation. Okay. All those in favor say aye. Aye. So moved. And approval of claims.

00:01:19.730 --> 00:01:34.730
So the first one, we've got a total of $1,184,282.20 and we'll do the second one next.

00:01:34.730 --> 00:01:37.730
Can I get a motion to approve?

00:01:37.730 --> 00:01:38.730
So moved.

00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:39.730
Okay.

00:01:39.730 --> 00:01:40.730
In a second.

00:01:40.730 --> 00:01:41.730
All right.

00:01:41.730 --> 00:01:43.730
All those in favor say aye.

00:01:43.730 --> 00:01:44.730
Aye.

00:01:44.730 --> 00:01:45.730
Aye.

00:01:45.730 --> 00:01:46.730
So moved.

00:01:46.730 --> 00:01:54.730
All right, one is approval claims from the nursing center, which is a whopping $3,597.98.

00:01:54.730 --> 00:02:02.730
Okay, just a second. All right, any favors say aye? Aye.

00:02:02.730 --> 00:02:06.730
Are these signs working? No.

00:02:06.730 --> 00:02:10.729
All right, keep going here.

00:02:10.729 --> 00:02:14.729
How about 6.0 public comment?

00:02:14.729 --> 00:02:23.689
All right. 7.0 reports to committee. 7.1 Diamond Brothers. Could be having anything this month.

00:02:23.689 --> 00:02:29.689
I'm aware of no. Okay. 7.2 County Administrator. You're up.

00:02:29.689 --> 00:02:44.689
One thing I was going to talk about a little bit more in depth at the nursing center meeting was that you did receive another accelerated payment statement on a nursing home employee.

00:02:44.689 --> 00:03:13.689
The HR Director has sent us some information and then Rayann has to compile the rest of the information to send that in to hopefully combat or at least lessen, if not eliminate the accelerated payment because IMRAP has certain guidelines and you've crossed that, but we are currently looking at a $6,653.14 accelerated payment calculation.

00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:21.849
um but Brian is usually pretty good at getting those submitted and and waived so um

00:03:23.849 --> 00:03:29.849
there was court on Friday um and we have court again this coming Friday for the nursery home

00:03:31.289 --> 00:03:37.689
uh the granted partnership meeting was on March 25th next one is April 22nd

00:03:37.689 --> 00:03:53.689
I've been working with the FOIAs. I talked about this admin. There seems to be an influx of those, but everyone has been getting information in and back on time.

00:03:53.689 --> 00:04:04.689
Wellness screenings went pretty well. We had 47 the first day and ended up with, was it, 30th day? 23rd, 24th, the second day.

00:04:04.689 --> 00:04:23.689
Hintay. So we're built a minimum of 30 people. So we had our minimums at both, both sites. So good turnout, especially with the people that percentage wise, we did much better this year than last year because of the number of employees, the nursing home, there's a lot of policies, so better number.

00:04:24.689 --> 00:04:25.689
What is the percentage?

00:04:27.689 --> 00:04:28.689
They haven't sent their total.

00:04:28.689 --> 00:04:57.689
The Walking Program kicked off today. It has been interesting to to see the interactions between departments. There's one glitch and we had one person that was showing up at over 48,000 stops, I think, like midday.

00:04:57.689 --> 00:05:05.529
Day, and we've reached out to Empower Health. She's being very honest. Her tracker on her watch is

00:05:05.529 --> 00:05:11.290
she's telling us like where she's actually at and not what was showing up in there. But it's been

00:05:11.290 --> 00:05:16.970
fun. I've looked out and seen groups of people walking from different offices that I usually

00:05:16.970 --> 00:05:31.769
I attended the Workforce Connection meeting on April 7th for Chairman Helms, and at the

00:05:31.769 --> 00:05:40.490
department head meeting, Mark Bell from ICRMT came and spoke about risk management, kind

00:05:40.490 --> 00:05:45.410
of represented some information on the online training portals that are all free to us,

00:05:45.410 --> 00:05:48.689
and free services through ICRI-2.

00:05:50.689 --> 00:05:55.089
Our shredding service company is coming on the 21st

00:05:55.089 --> 00:05:57.209
to take away the old shredding containers,

00:05:57.209 --> 00:06:02.209
bring us our new ones, and then we'll kick off with that.

00:06:03.209 --> 00:06:04.050
Very good.

00:06:04.889 --> 00:06:08.290
Questions with the FOIA, and we said evangelize,

00:06:08.290 --> 00:06:12.050
and a request for that, for what?

00:06:12.050 --> 00:06:12.889
FOIAs?

00:06:12.889 --> 00:06:14.129
Yeah.

00:06:14.129 --> 00:06:16.689
There's been, since the beginning of the year,

00:06:18.149 --> 00:06:22.709
every month a series of five to seven FOIAs

00:06:22.709 --> 00:06:25.170
that they went for previous months,

00:06:25.170 --> 00:06:30.170
payroll reimbursements, contracts, different things.

00:06:31.149 --> 00:06:35.629
And there's been a couple related to the nursing home

00:06:35.629 --> 00:06:40.649
and the health department recently.

00:06:40.649 --> 00:06:44.750
Okay, we'll move on.

00:06:44.750 --> 00:06:48.670
7.3 minus directs.

00:06:48.670 --> 00:06:53.670
Okay, so the revenue and expense budget comparison report,

00:06:54.790 --> 00:06:56.350
nothing really stands out

00:06:56.350 --> 00:07:00.189
or this includes through period three.

00:07:00.189 --> 00:07:07.110
So I can direct your attention to the nursing center.

00:07:07.110 --> 00:07:10.189
You'll always see that large number in terms of expenses

00:07:10.189 --> 00:07:11.930
and a little number in terms of revenues

00:07:11.930 --> 00:07:14.790
because that tax anticipation loan

00:07:14.790 --> 00:07:16.689
does not show up as revenue.

00:07:16.829 --> 00:07:18.990
so you won't see that in and out,

00:07:18.990 --> 00:07:23.829
but there is a huge percentage in the expense lines.

00:07:23.829 --> 00:07:26.589
Other than that, things are kind of stressful

00:07:26.589 --> 00:07:29.350
unless someone had specific questions.

00:07:29.350 --> 00:07:30.389
Yes.

00:07:30.389 --> 00:07:33.370
Line 032, liability insurance.

00:07:34.550 --> 00:07:39.550
The revenue is 2.8 and the expense is 18.5.

00:07:41.269 --> 00:07:43.310
I'm assuming that's a timing issue of some kind.

00:07:43.310 --> 00:07:46.350
It is, so we've again paying that in the previous year.

00:07:46.350 --> 00:07:48.589
where we prepay those expenses

00:07:48.589 --> 00:07:50.629
and then it's divided into six equal,

00:07:50.629 --> 00:07:53.350
it's like a 25% lump sum payment upfront

00:07:53.350 --> 00:07:58.189
and then the rest is divided into five equal payments.

00:07:58.189 --> 00:07:59.829
So we're finished paying in May

00:07:59.829 --> 00:08:03.149
and then real estate taxes come in in July.

00:08:03.149 --> 00:08:05.110
So it's kind of just the timing.

00:08:05.110 --> 00:08:09.910
Third, that's what I was about to ask, thank you.

00:08:09.910 --> 00:08:14.709
Okay, I will move on to the audit updates

00:08:14.709 --> 00:08:19.230
our audit final field work begins on the 27th of this month.

00:08:19.230 --> 00:08:22.550
Marianne and I still have to work on compensated absences

00:08:22.550 --> 00:08:23.829
and then we still need some information

00:08:23.829 --> 00:08:26.910
from departments on capital assets.

00:08:26.910 --> 00:08:28.350
We still have not received anything

00:08:28.350 --> 00:08:30.230
from the nursing center through

00:08:30.230 --> 00:08:32.210
with their preliminary field work

00:08:32.210 --> 00:08:33.690
or anything in the front field work.

00:08:33.690 --> 00:08:36.950
So we're hoping that they gather that information

00:08:36.950 --> 00:08:38.830
and get it to us as soon as possible.

00:08:40.309 --> 00:08:42.289
And then moving on to the budget policy,

00:08:42.289 --> 00:08:47.090
we usually send the rough draft in April,

00:08:47.090 --> 00:08:51.169
just kind of an initial reading of the document.

00:08:51.169 --> 00:08:55.269
There's nothing's really changed except for the dates.

00:08:55.269 --> 00:08:58.929
I did put the tentative 2026 dates in the budget calendar

00:08:58.929 --> 00:09:02.769
and I can send that out to the committee tomorrow.

00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:07.240
Other than that, there's really nothing new to report

00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:11.100
in the budget policy, but it'll be reviewed next month

00:09:11.100 --> 00:09:13.500
and then it's grouped in June.

00:09:13.500 --> 00:09:15.820
so there is time for you.

00:09:17.580 --> 00:09:19.980
Does anyone have any questions on that?

00:09:19.980 --> 00:09:22.820
It's funny, I just have one on,

00:09:23.820 --> 00:09:27.820
it goes along with the capital fund with the 014.

00:09:28.700 --> 00:09:30.220
It shows in the budget policy

00:09:30.220 --> 00:09:33.659
that we're supposed to have reports on building issues

00:09:33.659 --> 00:09:35.340
from the firm heads.

00:09:35.340 --> 00:09:36.539
Have we ever seen that?

00:09:38.460 --> 00:09:40.379
That's what I was wondering.

00:09:40.379 --> 00:09:42.179
I mean, it says that we're supposed to have them

00:09:42.179 --> 00:09:45.059
so that we have funds available for issues down the road

00:09:45.059 --> 00:09:48.340
and that money's supposed to be in zero one four.

00:09:48.340 --> 00:09:50.460
But if we never have that information

00:09:50.460 --> 00:09:54.059
on who do we get that information from

00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:57.080
because we're just avoiding issues.

00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.159
Right.

00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:16.500
So Wally used to comprise a lot of that, but I have talked to Dale. I mean, the Sheriff has his maintenance plans pretty readily available and he's had a lot of work done on his buildings over the past couple of years.

00:10:16.500 --> 00:10:22.500
I know the health department is working on that.

00:10:22.500 --> 00:10:39.500
Well, I just know we're to the end of, or we will be to the end of the ARPA funds and wherever those are going to be used and if we're not keeping up with buildings, we should have an idea of what's going to go on, sure.

00:10:39.500 --> 00:10:45.500
That makes a lot of sense. I think we should have that going forward so we can get it into the budget, right?

00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:50.539
Well, and that's what, that's what we're, if you look, there's this amount of money in that capital.

00:10:51.980 --> 00:11:00.299
Funds. It's already encumbered. All of it. I think everything that was budgeted, yes.

00:11:00.299 --> 00:11:06.539
So the capital fund just, I'm sorry. That's why. Is that, so when you see the report that I provide,

00:11:06.539 --> 00:11:12.299
that's the cash in the bank. That's not the budgeted funds. That's like everything. So with the

00:11:12.299 --> 00:11:16.559
with the budgeted funds, which you all approved.

00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:17.899
That's the revenue you approved

00:11:17.899 --> 00:11:19.639
to meet the corresponding expenses.

00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:21.399
And it's a lot of time, it's just a timing issue,

00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:24.919
like Mr. Did said, so we have that money ready to go

00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:27.440
when the expenses present themselves.

00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.319
So that, as far as I'm lost,

00:11:29.319 --> 00:11:30.919
I don't remember if there was a-

00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:31.759
I'm wondering.

00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:33.919
I'll see what the balance was, but I carry over.

00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.120
I believe that one's pretty tight, I thought.

00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:50.080
Yes, Chair, in the budget,

00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:54.080
Anything that's in that capital is already, there's corresponding expense to it.

00:11:54.080 --> 00:12:00.240
We put some separate dollars in contingency, but we didn't budget any extra in capital

00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:03.680
that wasn't budgeted, had a budgeted expense.

00:12:03.680 --> 00:12:06.960
Yeah, the surplus was only, it was less than $1,000.

00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:08.559
So there's a plan.

00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:10.559
Okay.

00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:15.950
Okay.

00:12:15.950 --> 00:12:17.470
All right.

00:12:17.470 --> 00:12:22.029
Cindy, let's go on to 7.4 for resource retention.

00:12:22.029 --> 00:12:22.909
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

00:12:22.909 --> 00:12:28.669
I'm hoping everybody's had a chance to review the monthly reports, I sent that out on April 5th.

00:12:30.669 --> 00:12:35.789
Look at the front page where the income tax and sales taxes results are shown those amounts remain

00:12:35.789 --> 00:12:41.389
steady as the report indicates and the aggregate receipts increased by over $33,000 from the

00:12:41.389 --> 00:12:46.990
February number so that's good and then actually this morning I received the last of the sales and

00:12:46.990 --> 00:12:52.830
income tax payments for this month and I was very surprised that they are actually higher again

00:12:52.909 --> 00:12:54.470
and then last month.

00:12:54.470 --> 00:12:55.830
So that was a little bit of a surprise.

00:12:55.830 --> 00:12:59.350
So another 23,000 more, very, very strong numbers

00:12:59.350 --> 00:13:02.509
for the month of April, because that reflects

00:13:02.509 --> 00:13:05.870
at least on the sales track side, January spending.

00:13:05.870 --> 00:13:10.389
So I think that's really positive outcome there.

00:13:10.389 --> 00:13:12.029
Does anybody have any questions about those,

00:13:12.029 --> 00:13:13.789
the things you see on the front page?

00:13:14.950 --> 00:13:17.230
Okay, on the investment side,

00:13:17.230 --> 00:13:21.269
there was four investments that matured in March,

00:13:21.269 --> 00:13:23.870
almost $23,000 in interest.

00:13:25.430 --> 00:13:27.909
As of the end of March, I had 18 investments in place

00:13:27.909 --> 00:13:29.389
across 10 different funds,

00:13:29.389 --> 00:13:31.069
maturing between April and October.

00:13:31.069 --> 00:13:33.990
And just last week, I had to this, excuse me,

00:13:33.990 --> 00:13:36.330
I invested another 2.1 million.

00:13:36.330 --> 00:13:38.669
That's going to mature in May and June.

00:13:40.710 --> 00:13:42.830
Does anybody have any questions about that?

00:13:43.789 --> 00:13:45.289
Anything else on the report?

00:13:45.289 --> 00:13:48.870
See if you draw your attention to the page five,

00:13:48.870 --> 00:13:50.549
you can see that month over month,

00:13:50.549 --> 00:13:55.149
we were only down 2.81% total dollars month over month,

00:13:55.149 --> 00:13:56.830
which is great.

00:13:56.830 --> 00:13:58.750
This time of year when there's no influx

00:13:58.750 --> 00:14:01.190
of property tax dollars coming in,

00:14:01.190 --> 00:14:03.149
that's a really good position to be in.

00:14:05.870 --> 00:14:07.590
So far so good, okay.

00:14:07.590 --> 00:14:11.069
So I did want to note one investment related item

00:14:11.069 --> 00:14:13.069
that I did not mention at the end

00:14:13.069 --> 00:14:15.069
because it's more financial.

00:14:15.069 --> 00:14:16.789
I wanted to talk a little bit just for a minute

00:14:16.789 --> 00:14:19.870
about the lost investment opportunities

00:14:19.870 --> 00:14:25.110
some of the balances within the general fund, social security fund, liability funds due

00:14:25.110 --> 00:14:32.069
to the county from the nursing home, advances and coverages, the bills that we paid that

00:14:32.069 --> 00:14:34.789
for which the county is due money back.

00:14:34.789 --> 00:14:38.149
Just those three funds alone is 2.2 million.

00:14:38.149 --> 00:14:41.829
Just using one of the lower yield amounts that I've gotten recently, if I've been able

00:14:41.829 --> 00:14:48.629
to invest that amount in this year alone, it would have been almost $80,000 in interest.

00:14:48.629 --> 00:14:52.789
more, because if I'd invested it last year, you know, that quarter was a little stronger.

00:14:52.789 --> 00:14:58.789
I just think that's important to keep track of, because opportunity costs is significant.

00:14:59.350 --> 00:15:03.750
And I didn't even include the amounts due to insurance, IMRF, but if you take together,

00:15:03.750 --> 00:15:09.350
that's another 120,000 that could have been invested. So it's not just the dollars that

00:15:09.350 --> 00:15:13.829
are showing on the back page of there. It's what could have been as well. When we're talking about

00:15:14.470 --> 00:15:17.910
how slim the margins are between revenues, expenses, there's a thousand here where there

00:15:17.910 --> 00:15:32.069
I want to get into the collector information a little bit this tax season is soon upon us so

00:15:32.789 --> 00:15:37.190
the clerk and assessor I met last month we determined dates and overall schedule for

00:15:37.190 --> 00:15:42.389
the coming tax season no changes at this point to the estimated dates looking for the tax

00:15:42.389 --> 00:15:47.670
Bill into late May, end of June, first installment early September, second installment pretty

00:15:47.670 --> 00:15:52.470
close to what we've done in the past. Tax bill has been redesigned this year to include additional

00:15:52.470 --> 00:15:57.910
verbiage that the state is now requiring. We make quite a few other design changes. Well,

00:15:57.910 --> 00:16:01.670
our software company told us they needed a minimum of four weeks, but they've actually

00:16:02.309 --> 00:16:08.389
Friday got me a draft. It needs work, so we're still working on it. But once those edits are made,

00:16:08.389 --> 00:16:13.110
Wade, we are going to now have a legal size paper printed in full color for what it would

00:16:13.110 --> 00:16:18.309
have cost us to have a letter size paper in black and white with our previous printer.

00:16:18.309 --> 00:16:21.910
So that's even though because we're required to provide more information, at least now

00:16:21.910 --> 00:16:27.069
we can expand size here, not looking at an eight font to try to fit it all through there.

00:16:27.069 --> 00:16:28.069
So that's good.

00:16:28.069 --> 00:16:32.829
And we've talked about this before, it has been given the many questions that we've already

00:16:32.829 --> 00:16:39.269
I've seen from Pearl City area residents after the passage of school referendum.

00:16:39.870 --> 00:16:43.710
Um, they don't really understand some of them.

00:16:43.710 --> 00:16:47.750
I won't say they all, but there have been quite a few, um, interesting

00:16:47.750 --> 00:16:50.889
comments, specifically from a couple of people who come in and ask to be

00:16:50.889 --> 00:16:53.230
exempted from the referendum.

00:16:54.230 --> 00:16:59.110
So unfortunately it's kind of showing a real lack of maybe information

00:16:59.110 --> 00:17:01.809
wasn't appropriately shared or just a lack of understanding.

00:17:01.809 --> 00:17:20.809
So the clerk and assessor I've talked to are probably going to bring back the presentations that I used to do in the track cycle and probably make a roadshow in Pearl City so we can take some information to them because in combination with the referendum, next year is also their reassessment year.

00:17:20.809 --> 00:17:26.809
The first year at which that referendum increase will apply will be their new assessment values.

00:17:26.809 --> 00:17:32.410
That's going to be kind of unpleasant. So we kind of want to prepare them. You know, as I mentioned

00:17:32.410 --> 00:17:37.049
this earlier, we can't take away the pain, but at least we can explain it. So that that's kind of

00:17:37.049 --> 00:17:42.170
what we're going to do. So that's looking to be maybe sometime in June, we just have to work out

00:17:42.170 --> 00:17:47.930
a schedule for when we're going to do that. So any questions? That's all I have.

00:17:48.730 --> 00:17:53.690
I have one quick question. Just paying the taxes early, is that still an option?

00:17:53.690 --> 00:17:55.690
It was until April 1st.

00:17:55.690 --> 00:17:57.690
Yes.

00:17:57.690 --> 00:17:59.690
We missed that then.

00:17:59.690 --> 00:18:01.690
It was a little later last year.

00:18:01.690 --> 00:18:06.690
I think we had 200 and something thousand this year.

00:18:06.690 --> 00:18:08.690
So it's about where it was.

00:18:08.690 --> 00:18:10.690
We did not have any senior deferrals this year.

00:18:10.690 --> 00:18:12.690
So I was very surprised about that.

00:18:12.690 --> 00:18:16.690
I had people ask about it after the deadline.

00:18:16.690 --> 00:18:18.690
Sort of like this situation.

00:18:18.690 --> 00:18:20.690
But none.

00:18:20.690 --> 00:18:22.690
Thank you.

00:18:22.690 --> 00:18:39.730
Thank you. All right, we'll move on here. There isn't any full business, so we'll move on to 9.0 new business. So we've got a 9.1 discussion on Google main exchange process. So I'm going to grab that.

00:18:44.340 --> 00:18:45.340
Okay, so.

00:18:47.139 --> 00:18:47.940
It's just that so.

00:18:48.539 --> 00:18:49.220
I can jump in.

00:18:49.220 --> 00:19:15.220
So there's a snippet of the code for the approval limits and process for manual checks if, you know, as a department head, you have a $2,000 spending limit between that and $5,000 can be approved with the signature of your Oversight Chair or the County Board Chairman.

00:19:15.220 --> 00:19:25.460
5,000 to 10,000 needs to go to committee and 10,000 and above full board approval.

00:19:25.460 --> 00:19:43.539
So, the two items that kind of will be the next thing you'll be looking at on the agenda were timing issue mainly and I know Stephanie knows a little bit more about the actual claims but

00:19:43.539 --> 00:19:57.940
I can get into that if you want to look short onto this discussion. There were two. One of the Sheriff's credit card bills and the Motorola bill from the Sheriff's Department. That one was time sensitive. The credit card bill is time sensitive. Normally they don't make it to this level.

00:19:57.940 --> 00:19:58.460
and probably they don't make it to this level,

00:19:58.460 --> 00:20:02.000
but because of the amount it needed to come before you all

00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:05.180
and the full board, they're not normally that much month

00:20:05.180 --> 00:20:08.339
to month, they normally fall within these other thresholds.

00:20:08.339 --> 00:20:12.640
So I think some departments are forgetting that.

00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:14.480
So I think I need to maybe send a memo

00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:17.720
and I see a dramatically increased number

00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:19.819
of requests for manual checks.

00:20:19.819 --> 00:20:23.599
And I think sometimes people just think it's more convenient

00:20:23.599 --> 00:20:25.859
but really we should be limiting that number

00:20:25.859 --> 00:20:29.660
for situations that there absolutely is no other way,

00:20:29.660 --> 00:20:32.059
or in the sheriff's case, you know,

00:20:32.059 --> 00:20:33.339
you're either going to get a late charge

00:20:33.339 --> 00:20:37.279
or an increased interest rate, some mitigating circumstance,

00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:40.660
but sometimes I think it's happening for convenience.

00:20:40.660 --> 00:20:43.980
And then when these thresholds are ignored

00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:46.500
and we're kind of the bad guy for having to send it back,

00:20:46.500 --> 00:20:49.500
but I think it's worth a little refresher

00:20:49.500 --> 00:20:52.380
or maybe the board entirely, so.

00:20:52.380 --> 00:20:58.859
that'll be the 9.2 item. Yes. Well, I agree because my name is all that.

00:21:01.660 --> 00:21:08.700
Well, good afternoon. I mean, but as I was sitting there looking at this, that's quite a

00:21:08.700 --> 00:21:14.940
good one. I mean, besides, obviously, coming from a committee, but he came and said that he needed

00:21:14.940 --> 00:21:21.980
it done right away, so. I think they just forget, and the reason that's important, and because the

00:21:21.980 --> 00:21:27.819
Auditors will ask, they'll ask when they test transactions, they want to see start to finish.

00:21:28.619 --> 00:21:33.500
Who approved it? When did they approve it? Whose signatures? What date? And they have quoted this

00:21:33.500 --> 00:21:39.500
particular chapter of the code and I'm not going to issue one, it was officially to let it go.

00:21:43.900 --> 00:21:47.099
Last year, the sheriff had asked me to sign off your credit card bill.

00:21:47.099 --> 00:21:52.539
Bill, didn't give me, just gave me the claim form, I didn't have the credit card statement.

00:21:52.539 --> 00:21:57.279
So if that happens, I would recommend you get the credit card bill because I told them

00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:01.759
I'm not signing anything until I know what the expenditures were.

00:22:01.759 --> 00:22:05.660
There's no reason that those can't go through the claims process.

00:22:05.660 --> 00:22:06.660
There's not.

00:22:06.660 --> 00:22:10.980
That somebody didn't get it put in in time.

00:22:10.980 --> 00:22:14.000
So they need to be put through the claims process.

00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:21.319
Sarcaldico. Emergencies, sure. Credit card bill is not an emergency, right? Or a purchase

00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:26.680
unless you get some money off maybe, but after signing your name to these and the auditors

00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:34.480
are looking at them, you're testing that everything on there was correct within budgets, not picking

00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:42.480
on your own, so move, protect yourself, so that would protect yourself.

00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:45.680
Right. So that's been related to that.

00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:48.160
Yes, yes. Yeah, he knew that it was a story.

00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:52.039
Yeah. Yeah. So we're specific to the credit cards.

00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:56.639
And this is different in that the county credit cards, the sheriff has his own set

00:22:56.639 --> 00:23:00.720
of cards, the county credit cards can go through regular claims because the date

00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:04.360
specificity is not as important because when I get that bill, I pay it

00:23:04.360 --> 00:23:08.279
in its entirety and the department then submits a plan to pay it back.

00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:10.599
Those are the claims that you reviewed to the escrow fund.

00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:15.279
These cannot be done within the normal claim cycle.

00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:21.400
Typically, we've talked about potentially getting the due date change to it.

00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:23.480
Can't do it until the next month.

00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:28.920
So, and I am talking with the, the issuing bank about possibly waiving

00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:33.519
any potential fees and interest rate increases given the nature of what we do.

00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:43.519
I have not received an answer to either of those requests, so we're trying to, but if you do have some, the health department sends me at least one manual request to wait for utilities.

00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:58.519
A lot of times our vendors will work with us and expand the net due date terms. Some of the utilities absolutely will not, and there will be an immediate late charge. So those are the situations that we're talking about if there's no other way.

00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:04.680
other way. And you have worked with the vendor to try to say, can we have 45 days net, something.

00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:10.599
So that's really what manual checks should be for. And only those things. And I think

00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:14.559
people maybe need to perhaps just plan a little further out.

00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:44.480
it can be done, yeah, correct, all right, all good, all righty, let's go to 9.2, which is the results of a particular claim, so let me read it, so it's for $17,620.44,

00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:50.880
4 cents on the one, and then we got the other one for $11,209.36.

00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:51.880
Sumo.

00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:54.259
Okay.

00:24:54.259 --> 00:24:55.259
Anybody second?

00:24:55.259 --> 00:24:56.259
Okay.

00:24:56.259 --> 00:24:57.259
Any other?

00:24:57.259 --> 00:24:58.259
Sure.

00:24:58.259 --> 00:24:59.259
I'll second.

00:24:59.259 --> 00:25:00.259
Oh, yeah.

00:25:00.259 --> 00:25:01.259
Oh, there?

00:25:01.259 --> 00:25:02.259
I did.

00:25:02.259 --> 00:25:03.259
All right.

00:25:03.259 --> 00:25:04.259
Any other comments, conversation?

00:25:04.259 --> 00:25:05.259
Okay.

00:25:05.259 --> 00:25:06.259
All those in favor say aye.

00:25:06.259 --> 00:25:07.259
Aye.

00:25:07.259 --> 00:25:08.259
Opposed?

00:25:08.259 --> 00:25:09.259
Same sign.

00:25:09.259 --> 00:25:10.259
We're all good.

00:25:10.259 --> 00:25:11.259
Okay.

00:25:11.259 --> 00:25:12.259
All right.

00:25:12.259 --> 00:25:15.259
Let's just keep going here.

00:25:15.259 --> 00:25:24.259
So, let's go down to 9.3, Discussion on Resolution Establishing a Salary for the Office of County Treasurer.

00:25:24.259 --> 00:25:39.289
So, in your fashion, it's the old one, or the one we're currently operating on here, I should say.

00:25:39.289 --> 00:25:49.289
and then the administrator handed this out, this is the current salary survey thing.

00:25:49.289 --> 00:25:56.289
I believe we have to have these approved in June, or before June?

00:25:56.289 --> 00:25:57.289
June is the latest.

00:25:57.289 --> 00:25:58.289
June is the latest.

00:25:58.289 --> 00:26:04.819
So, I guess we need to start thinking about...

00:26:04.819 --> 00:26:08.819
It's 180 days before they're sworn into office.

00:26:08.819 --> 00:26:16.180
Yeah, okay. Yep. So that would be in June, basically. So we're sworn in, I'm sorry, December 1st.

00:26:17.019 --> 00:26:19.779
So six months from that. Okay.

00:26:22.700 --> 00:26:31.250
Okay, the May board meeting. Okay, the May board meeting. So I think

00:26:32.009 --> 00:26:35.210
where we go from here, we kind of kind of think about where we want to

00:26:36.130 --> 00:26:38.130
go with this next

00:26:38.130 --> 00:26:44.130
I don't know if there's a kind of resolution or contract or whatever here.

00:26:44.130 --> 00:26:49.329
So I think it's something figured out here in May or before May here.

00:26:49.329 --> 00:26:51.930
So we got this month and next month.

00:26:52.930 --> 00:27:07.860
So this last, this report, look at the old report.

00:27:08.460 --> 00:27:11.759
What are the, without me doing the math, what are the percentages?

00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:12.460
Three.

00:27:12.460 --> 00:27:14.259
Three percent, okay, thank you.

00:27:14.259 --> 00:27:29.210
just kind of another side note as I glance down at this I know further into UCCI it talks about

00:27:30.410 --> 00:27:34.250
county clerk and recorders and sometimes they're separate to the different positions

00:27:34.809 --> 00:27:40.889
and sometimes they're combined so just something to consider with you which you all have the full

00:27:40.889 --> 00:28:20.500
I think they're basically the same position. So, about that. And also, as we come up on the budget, we got to think about, there'll be other things probably popping up with other salaries and what those increases may or may not be.

00:28:20.500 --> 00:28:49.500
increases may or may not be, we make sure we don't bury the budget before we get started off, so I know Tim was talking about before and we need to start a little bit sooner on some of these things so we don't get into the budget season and then we've already got either things spent or allocated or whatever

00:28:49.500 --> 00:29:05.730
We'll have all kinds of fun when the budget starts at the end of the year.

00:29:05.730 --> 00:29:06.730
Quick question.

00:29:06.730 --> 00:29:07.730
Yes, sir.

00:29:07.730 --> 00:29:09.730
The current salaries are the $68,000 and $69,000.

00:29:09.730 --> 00:29:14.730
Is that what we're opposed to in positions?

00:29:14.730 --> 00:29:15.730
I don't have it.

00:29:15.730 --> 00:29:16.730
I don't get it.

00:29:16.730 --> 00:29:46.650
So we're not going to take any action tonight, but something we got to figure out.

00:29:46.650 --> 00:29:55.650
Now, what we're going to do here, like next month, okay, we got next month, we got next month, thanks so much, okay.

00:29:55.650 --> 00:29:59.539
Okay. Any other discussion on that?

00:29:59.539 --> 00:30:01.539
Okay.

00:30:01.539 --> 00:30:03.539
John?

00:30:03.539 --> 00:30:05.539
Good, John.

00:30:05.539 --> 00:30:07.539
How about 10.0? Got anything on that?

00:30:07.539 --> 00:30:09.539
Yes.

00:30:09.539 --> 00:30:11.539
Yeah, so moved.

00:30:11.539 --> 00:30:13.539
Adjournment.

00:30:13.539 --> 00:30:14.539
Second.

00:30:14.539 --> 00:30:16.539
And second. All right. All those in favor say aye.

00:30:16.539 --> 00:30:17.539
Aye.

00:30:17.539 --> 00:30:18.539
Thanks everybody.

00:30:18.539 --> 00:30:19.539
Thank you.
