WEBVTT

00:01:49.641 --> 00:01:51.082
All right, I've got nine o'clock.

00:01:51.162 --> 00:01:53.222
Would everyone please stand?

00:01:53.382 --> 00:01:54.063
Mr. Abbott,

00:01:54.103 --> 00:01:57.944
would you lead us in the pledge?

00:01:58.204 --> 00:02:00.146
And Mr. Schall, the prayer.

00:02:02.706 --> 00:02:05.486
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the

00:02:05.507 --> 00:02:07.947
United States of America and to the

00:02:08.068 --> 00:02:09.929
republic for which it stands,

00:02:18.284 --> 00:02:19.705
Most precious Heavenly Father,

00:02:19.725 --> 00:02:21.806
we do thank you for your blessings and

00:02:21.825 --> 00:02:23.447
just stay here, Father.

00:02:23.667 --> 00:02:24.146
Father,

00:02:24.167 --> 00:02:25.788
just thank you for wanting to come out

00:02:25.807 --> 00:02:26.948
to the commissioners meeting.

00:02:26.967 --> 00:02:27.548
Follow us,

00:02:27.587 --> 00:02:28.848
go into it with open minds and lead

00:02:28.868 --> 00:02:30.990
us and guide us and direct us.

00:02:31.110 --> 00:02:32.770
In Jesus' name, amen.

00:02:32.789 --> 00:02:33.210
Amen.

00:02:34.091 --> 00:02:41.353
Thank you, gentlemen.

00:02:43.533 --> 00:02:43.973
All right.

00:02:49.237 --> 00:02:51.598
Obviously, Mr. Marshall isn't here today,

00:02:51.618 --> 00:02:55.381
and he would keep him and his wife,

00:02:55.420 --> 00:02:57.341
his wife, in your prayers.

00:02:57.381 --> 00:03:00.763
She had a little health scare a couple

00:03:00.802 --> 00:03:02.963
days ago, but she is home and recovering,

00:03:03.044 --> 00:03:06.044
so he will not be here today.

00:03:08.445 --> 00:03:10.806
Need a motion to approve the agenda as

00:03:10.866 --> 00:03:11.426
it's written?

00:03:12.867 --> 00:03:13.668
I'll make that motion.

00:03:14.710 --> 00:03:16.509
Motion made by Mr. Cardwell.

00:03:16.569 --> 00:03:17.431
I'll second that.

00:03:17.510 --> 00:03:19.091
All those in favor, say aye.

00:03:19.211 --> 00:03:19.670
Aye.

00:03:19.911 --> 00:03:20.070
Aye.

00:03:20.211 --> 00:03:22.792
Thank you.

00:03:24.812 --> 00:03:26.711
Lucy Brenton, she's not here.

00:03:27.012 --> 00:03:32.752
Okay.

00:03:32.793 --> 00:03:34.593
Minutes for the last meeting,

00:03:34.633 --> 00:03:36.074
September sixteenth.

00:03:36.854 --> 00:03:39.155
I'd like a motion to approve those.

00:03:39.655 --> 00:03:40.854
I'll make a motion to approve them.

00:03:42.078 --> 00:03:42.457
Thank you.

00:03:42.518 --> 00:03:43.359
I'll second that.

00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:45.281
All those in favor say aye.

00:03:45.441 --> 00:03:45.640
Aye.

00:03:45.941 --> 00:03:48.362
All right.

00:03:48.604 --> 00:03:49.764
Moving right along.

00:03:49.985 --> 00:03:54.669
Need a motion to approve the claims and

00:03:54.729 --> 00:03:55.389
payroll.

00:03:55.430 --> 00:03:56.850
If there aren't any questions.

00:03:56.871 --> 00:03:58.552
Do you have any questions on the payroll?

00:03:58.573 --> 00:03:59.734
I did over one.

00:04:00.133 --> 00:04:00.735
Okay.

00:04:01.335 --> 00:04:02.415
Airport Speedway.

00:04:02.436 --> 00:04:05.098
What's that for?

00:04:05.838 --> 00:04:06.939
That is a...

00:04:09.237 --> 00:04:11.218
That comes from the Redevelopment

00:04:11.258 --> 00:04:11.879
Commission.

00:04:12.659 --> 00:04:17.122
Doesn't really come out of county funds as

00:04:17.182 --> 00:04:17.603
such.

00:04:18.923 --> 00:04:22.906
That is for a project that they did

00:04:23.026 --> 00:04:25.267
out there to upgrade some of the

00:04:25.288 --> 00:04:25.908
utilities.

00:04:26.449 --> 00:04:29.089
Tom Cyphers is the attorney for that.

00:04:29.610 --> 00:04:32.331
They have their own fund.

00:04:34.872 --> 00:04:36.913
and they pulled that but it goes through

00:04:36.932 --> 00:04:38.814
the auditor's office so it was the

00:04:38.894 --> 00:04:42.074
extension on the uh utilities yeah okay

00:04:42.213 --> 00:04:44.074
yeah i thought that's what was about to

00:04:44.095 --> 00:04:46.735
be sure i'll make a motion to approve

00:04:46.774 --> 00:04:51.076
the claims okay thank you i'll second that

00:04:51.216 --> 00:04:53.576
all those in favor say aye aye aye

00:04:56.076 --> 00:04:59.458
okay april you want to describe the

00:04:59.798 --> 00:05:02.319
memorandum of understanding there briefly

00:05:02.358 --> 00:05:04.319
about the uh whoops

00:05:05.341 --> 00:05:05.901
No.

00:05:05.922 --> 00:05:07.122
We're going to hold on that.

00:05:07.161 --> 00:05:07.262
Yeah,

00:05:07.281 --> 00:05:10.423
we're going to table that because the fair

00:05:10.502 --> 00:05:13.843
board members have not had a chance to

00:05:13.884 --> 00:05:16.384
review that yet.

00:05:16.504 --> 00:05:21.504
Skipping down to the easement for the

00:05:21.545 --> 00:05:23.365
fairgrounds for mainstream fiber.

00:05:23.584 --> 00:05:23.805
Sure,

00:05:23.824 --> 00:05:26.865
this is a utility easement between

00:05:27.725 --> 00:05:29.906
mainstream fiber networks and the county

00:05:29.925 --> 00:05:30.607
for an easement.

00:05:34.444 --> 00:05:37.605
This would be to allow mainstream a

00:05:37.646 --> 00:05:40.225
fifteen by fifteen easement for a fiber

00:05:40.326 --> 00:05:46.247
optic cabinet near one eighteen Fair

00:05:46.267 --> 00:05:46.648
Street.

00:05:47.668 --> 00:06:00.891
I make a motion that we accept that.

00:06:00.911 --> 00:06:01.091
Okay.

00:06:03.672 --> 00:06:05.252
Mr. Cardwell's made a motion.

00:06:05.273 --> 00:06:05.992
I'll second that.

00:06:06.052 --> 00:06:06.774
All those in favor, say aye.

00:06:06.793 --> 00:06:06.913
Aye.

00:06:06.934 --> 00:06:06.994
Aye.

00:06:07.014 --> 00:06:07.334
Thank you, April.

00:06:07.353 --> 00:06:07.634
Mr. Boyles,

00:06:07.653 --> 00:06:09.754
would you like to comment on the bridge

00:06:09.774 --> 00:06:10.795
thirty-nine bid opening?

00:06:14.437 --> 00:06:15.639
The bridge thirty-nine is an old pony

00:06:15.658 --> 00:06:16.098
trust bridge,

00:06:16.119 --> 00:06:20.461
and Franklin Bottoms are a little york,

00:06:20.482 --> 00:06:21.341
and it's due for replacement.

00:06:21.362 --> 00:06:22.283
We'll be opening the goods for that.

00:06:22.302 --> 00:06:26.564
We have three votes.

00:06:44.281 --> 00:06:47.223
Is that the one that had some log

00:06:47.283 --> 00:06:49.624
jam issues a couple of years ago?

00:06:49.663 --> 00:06:49.884
Yeah.

00:06:49.923 --> 00:06:50.545
Yeah.

00:06:51.045 --> 00:06:55.567
And it's did Mother Nature take care of

00:06:55.987 --> 00:06:56.927
that pretty much?

00:06:56.987 --> 00:06:59.249
Yeah, it's just not really an issue.

00:06:59.269 --> 00:07:00.550
It's all backwater.

00:07:00.569 --> 00:07:02.170
So there's no flow.

00:07:02.190 --> 00:07:04.732
So the log jam goes up and goes

00:07:04.771 --> 00:07:04.952
down.

00:07:04.973 --> 00:07:05.312
Yeah.

00:07:05.333 --> 00:07:05.692
Yeah.

00:07:05.713 --> 00:07:06.093
Yeah.

00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:10.781
And this proposal requested a lump sum

00:07:10.802 --> 00:07:12.322
price for the entire project.

00:07:12.343 --> 00:07:14.404
The first bid is from Temple and Temple

00:07:14.464 --> 00:07:18.329
and the amount of seven hundred eighteen

00:07:18.369 --> 00:07:22.132
thousand two hundred twenty five dollars

00:07:23.353 --> 00:07:24.134
and zero cents.

00:07:42.021 --> 00:07:43.764
The second proposal from R.L.

00:07:44.004 --> 00:07:48.269
Luxon excavating in the amount of eight

00:07:48.290 --> 00:07:51.353
hundred ninety eight thousand and zero

00:07:51.392 --> 00:07:51.733
cents.

00:08:15.016 --> 00:08:21.300
Final bid from KLB Excavating in the

00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.380
amount of eight hundred sixty nine

00:08:23.401 --> 00:08:28.024
thousand eight hundred fifty dollars and

00:08:28.064 --> 00:08:28.843
zero cents.

00:08:29.283 --> 00:08:37.808
Mr. Boyles,

00:08:37.948 --> 00:08:40.509
I assume you want to review these before

00:08:40.549 --> 00:08:42.030
we...

00:08:42.150 --> 00:08:43.731
I recommend accepting all for review.

00:08:47.438 --> 00:08:49.580
I'll make a motion that we accept all

00:08:49.620 --> 00:08:50.720
bids for review.

00:08:51.640 --> 00:08:54.621
Second.

00:08:54.701 --> 00:08:58.144
All those in favor say aye.

00:08:58.364 --> 00:08:59.164
Aye.

00:08:59.184 --> 00:09:09.250
Thank you.

00:09:09.309 --> 00:09:09.889
Mr. Eckert,

00:09:09.909 --> 00:09:11.291
would you like to come forward and

00:09:11.817 --> 00:09:13.679
update us on the highway department

00:09:13.700 --> 00:09:29.934
project morning good morning brief update

00:09:30.034 --> 00:09:33.938
we'll start with the office the ceiling

00:09:33.958 --> 00:09:36.860
grid being installed right now which will

00:09:37.100 --> 00:09:37.361
allow the

00:09:38.427 --> 00:09:40.669
HVAC contractor to come in and do all

00:09:40.690 --> 00:09:43.471
his drops and the electric contractor to

00:09:43.672 --> 00:09:46.354
start installing his light fixtures.

00:09:46.595 --> 00:09:48.655
They have done quite a bit of rough

00:09:49.015 --> 00:09:52.678
in the big conference area of the main

00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:53.620
office there.

00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.322
And we're also putting in the flooring.

00:09:58.817 --> 00:10:01.379
for all the offices in the main area

00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:02.240
of the building.

00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:05.024
Doors and hardware are on site.

00:10:05.104 --> 00:10:07.226
We just want to get flooring done first

00:10:07.326 --> 00:10:09.308
and then we'll drop back and do the

00:10:09.328 --> 00:10:11.331
doors and hardware.

00:10:11.511 --> 00:10:12.692
On this mixed salt building,

00:10:12.712 --> 00:10:14.796
the salt building is going vertical up in

00:10:14.816 --> 00:10:15.596
the air right now.

00:10:15.677 --> 00:10:17.479
I think they got most of the metal

00:10:17.499 --> 00:10:17.979
roofing on.

00:10:19.374 --> 00:10:20.575
on that building,

00:10:20.595 --> 00:10:23.436
working on the bracing for the siding on

00:10:23.456 --> 00:10:24.976
the exterior of it,

00:10:25.297 --> 00:10:27.717
and we'll just continue as the weather

00:10:28.118 --> 00:10:28.778
allows.

00:10:28.817 --> 00:10:29.599
For instance,

00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:31.860
today they're working in the mechanic shop

00:10:31.940 --> 00:10:32.779
due to the rain,

00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:34.961
so they're working inside when it's not

00:10:35.160 --> 00:10:37.062
raining, outside when it is raining,

00:10:37.081 --> 00:10:39.222
so we've always got a place to go.

00:10:40.342 --> 00:10:42.644
We've been out there the last few weeks

00:10:42.684 --> 00:10:45.046
just working on the site concrete up and

00:10:45.066 --> 00:10:47.008
down all the buildings.

00:10:47.087 --> 00:10:48.828
If a contractor is working at the office,

00:10:48.849 --> 00:10:50.970
we work at the mechanics garage and vice

00:10:50.990 --> 00:10:51.289
versa.

00:10:51.309 --> 00:10:52.811
We just jump around because there is

00:10:52.850 --> 00:10:55.952
plenty of site concrete to get installed

00:10:56.052 --> 00:10:56.453
out there.

00:10:58.402 --> 00:10:59.923
I can't remember if I mentioned it,

00:10:59.942 --> 00:11:01.484
but the septic field has all been

00:11:01.504 --> 00:11:03.905
installed and approved by Chris Bowling

00:11:03.926 --> 00:11:04.787
with the health department.

00:11:04.826 --> 00:11:06.707
We'll have to have him out there one

00:11:06.727 --> 00:11:08.389
more time when we put the pumps in,

00:11:08.408 --> 00:11:09.971
which we have the pumps.

00:11:10.030 --> 00:11:12.231
They got delivered last week at our shop.

00:11:12.292 --> 00:11:15.315
We'll get those installed and get Chris to

00:11:15.335 --> 00:11:18.037
come out there and give the approval on

00:11:18.057 --> 00:11:19.758
the flow rates and everything for the

00:11:19.798 --> 00:11:20.499
septic system.

00:11:22.931 --> 00:11:24.731
Underground, on site,

00:11:24.751 --> 00:11:27.855
I believe everything is in the only

00:11:27.914 --> 00:11:28.294
conduit,

00:11:28.534 --> 00:11:31.096
well I'm gonna say ninety-nine percent,

00:11:31.116 --> 00:11:33.158
the only conduit in question is the

00:11:33.178 --> 00:11:35.961
conduit for the gate up front,

00:11:36.221 --> 00:11:38.563
but I believe everything else between

00:11:38.583 --> 00:11:39.524
water, gas, electric,

00:11:39.644 --> 00:11:41.605
and fiber optic are all,

00:11:41.745 --> 00:11:43.207
all the underground is in for all that

00:11:43.227 --> 00:11:45.068
material.

00:11:45.109 --> 00:11:45.249
So,

00:11:45.349 --> 00:11:48.511
I'm just gonna proceed on and try to

00:11:48.552 --> 00:11:49.432
get this knocked out.

00:11:51.431 --> 00:11:52.431
That's the plan.

00:11:57.313 --> 00:12:00.914
So we are on schedule, right?

00:12:01.096 --> 00:12:02.995
I would say so, yeah.

00:12:03.015 --> 00:12:04.836
There's a couple details that are,

00:12:04.897 --> 00:12:07.238
all they're going back and forth in about

00:12:07.438 --> 00:12:09.119
how much payment you want to do now,

00:12:09.139 --> 00:12:10.799
when, and all that.

00:12:11.139 --> 00:12:13.321
If they want to hold off maybe a

00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:14.241
portion of the payment.

00:12:14.282 --> 00:12:15.481
So I'll say all in all,

00:12:15.501 --> 00:12:16.423
it all depends on

00:12:17.924 --> 00:12:19.605
what is thrown at us or not thrown

00:12:19.686 --> 00:12:19.966
at us.

00:12:20.067 --> 00:12:23.489
We stay open until Christmas so there's no

00:12:23.509 --> 00:12:26.912
issue there with our asphalt plan.

00:12:26.971 --> 00:12:31.115
You don't see an issue with settling after

00:12:31.134 --> 00:12:33.416
laying the asphalt or anything?

00:12:33.436 --> 00:12:36.538
That's one of the concerns that I can't

00:12:36.599 --> 00:12:40.081
remember who brought it up where they will

00:12:40.100 --> 00:12:41.302
put the binder down

00:12:42.149 --> 00:12:43.289
and see if there is any settling.

00:12:43.370 --> 00:12:43.649
If there is,

00:12:43.669 --> 00:12:45.431
we'll repair it and then put the surface

00:12:45.551 --> 00:12:45.770
on.

00:12:45.831 --> 00:12:47.831
Repair it for no extra charge?

00:12:47.870 --> 00:12:48.110
Correct.

00:12:48.130 --> 00:12:48.772
Crackouts.

00:12:48.892 --> 00:12:49.692
It's included.

00:12:49.711 --> 00:12:51.432
I thought that was it.

00:12:51.451 --> 00:12:52.152
Yes, you are correct.

00:12:52.192 --> 00:12:52.351
Yeah,

00:12:52.692 --> 00:13:01.934
we're going to have to decide that here

00:13:02.054 --> 00:13:03.634
in the next week or two.

00:13:04.955 --> 00:13:07.296
With Mr. Boyle's input,

00:13:07.515 --> 00:13:11.017
so he's the one going to be residing

00:13:11.037 --> 00:13:11.397
there.

00:13:14.586 --> 00:13:18.648
We'll rely heavily on his advice.

00:13:18.748 --> 00:13:19.868
It'll be his new home.

00:13:19.967 --> 00:13:24.750
It'll be a nice home, won't it?

00:13:24.791 --> 00:13:25.331
That's right.

00:13:25.490 --> 00:13:26.150
Yeah, yeah.

00:13:26.171 --> 00:13:26.350
Okay.

00:13:26.451 --> 00:13:27.392
All right, thank you.

00:13:27.412 --> 00:13:34.715
Thank you.

00:13:34.894 --> 00:13:36.275
Do you have anything else for us, Rick?

00:13:36.296 --> 00:13:36.475
I do.

00:13:36.836 --> 00:13:37.035
Okay.

00:13:45.110 --> 00:13:47.774
working on community crossings for twenty,

00:13:47.793 --> 00:13:48.354
twenty states.

00:13:48.474 --> 00:13:50.475
I have a financial commitment letter here

00:13:50.495 --> 00:13:53.158
for you to sign.

00:13:53.577 --> 00:13:55.519
I have to go chase Bill down.

00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:56.480
I'm not sure if it's all right.

00:13:56.541 --> 00:13:57.360
Just two or one.

00:13:57.380 --> 00:13:58.361
This is just saying

00:13:58.910 --> 00:14:01.153
that we will be responsible for our match

00:14:01.173 --> 00:14:01.774
of the grant.

00:14:01.793 --> 00:14:03.215
You know, the state awards us money.

00:14:03.254 --> 00:14:04.697
We do this every year.

00:14:04.756 --> 00:14:07.139
And one thing I do want to point

00:14:07.198 --> 00:14:07.339
out,

00:14:07.359 --> 00:14:09.160
they're kind of tightening up some rules,

00:14:09.301 --> 00:14:11.163
and I need to stress that our ADA

00:14:11.182 --> 00:14:12.703
Title VI needs to be up to date.

00:14:12.724 --> 00:14:15.206
They did make me aware that we needed

00:14:15.226 --> 00:14:16.847
to update the website, so check on that.

00:14:33.063 --> 00:14:34.063
You try to call.

00:14:34.105 --> 00:14:36.566
You'll probably be in town sometime.

00:14:36.605 --> 00:14:38.446
All the other thing I have is.

00:14:57.568 --> 00:14:58.469
Three tandem dump trucks that we have

00:14:58.489 --> 00:14:58.629
ordered.

00:14:58.649 --> 00:14:59.589
I told you one showed up and the

00:14:59.609 --> 00:15:01.169
others were coming and they are all now

00:15:01.269 --> 00:15:01.429
there.

00:15:01.450 --> 00:15:03.130
So we have all three of our new

00:15:03.211 --> 00:15:04.350
dump trucks.

00:15:04.370 --> 00:15:05.971
And a little more salt being hauled in

00:15:05.991 --> 00:15:06.631
this afternoon.

00:15:06.672 --> 00:15:09.192
And I think that's all the updates I've

00:15:09.212 --> 00:15:10.374
got for you.

00:15:11.354 --> 00:15:14.034
I know we ask this question every other

00:15:14.075 --> 00:15:14.455
meeting,

00:15:14.495 --> 00:15:18.177
but how many years was it took to

00:15:18.197 --> 00:15:19.096
get those trucks?

00:15:19.236 --> 00:15:19.998
Three.

00:15:20.038 --> 00:15:20.498
Three years.

00:15:23.856 --> 00:15:24.537
I mean,

00:15:24.777 --> 00:15:26.999
if you think about that like a personal

00:15:27.019 --> 00:15:27.980
vehicle, you know, that's kind of crazy,

00:15:28.019 --> 00:15:28.159
really.

00:15:28.179 --> 00:15:28.259
Yeah.

00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:29.240
That's how it is in Russia, isn't it?

00:15:29.260 --> 00:15:39.067
They have to wait three or four years

00:15:39.087 --> 00:15:39.368
on a car.

00:15:39.388 --> 00:15:40.629
I hope it doesn't take that long to

00:15:40.668 --> 00:15:41.068
get cars.

00:15:41.089 --> 00:15:41.190
Yeah.

00:15:41.210 --> 00:15:41.350
Okay.

00:15:41.370 --> 00:15:41.590
All right.

00:15:41.629 --> 00:15:41.950
Anything else?

00:15:41.970 --> 00:15:45.493
That's it.

00:15:45.712 --> 00:15:47.614
Okay.

00:15:47.653 --> 00:15:48.054
Thank you, Rick.

00:15:48.075 --> 00:15:48.254
All right.

00:15:50.804 --> 00:15:51.885
Tony, you have anything?

00:15:52.265 --> 00:15:52.666
No, sir.

00:15:52.905 --> 00:15:53.486
Okay.

00:15:53.826 --> 00:15:54.226
April?

00:15:54.647 --> 00:15:55.768
Nothing, thank you.

00:15:55.807 --> 00:15:56.467
Karen?

00:15:56.488 --> 00:15:56.628
No.

00:15:57.668 --> 00:15:59.169
Entertain a motion to adjourn.

00:15:59.190 --> 00:16:01.091
I'll make a motion to adjourn.

00:16:02.631 --> 00:16:02.991
Second.

00:16:03.211 --> 00:16:04.852
All those in favor say aye.

00:16:04.993 --> 00:16:05.273
Aye.

00:16:05.312 --> 00:16:05.693
Thank you.

00:16:21.493 --> 00:16:23.744
Because we've had this conversation.
