So convenient truth in taxation TNT public hearings you hear from citizens regarding the proposed secondary property tax.
|
00:04:26
|
|
Levy rate of .2425 per 100 assessed value.
|
00:04:35
|
|
For FY24, excluding amounts that are attributed to new construction.
|
00:04:40
|
|
And any changes that may occur from property tax levies for voter approved bonded.
|
00:04:46
|
|
And deadness or budget and tax overrides.
|
00:04:52
|
|
That is $47,695 greater than the amount allowed without a T&T public hearing.
|
00:04:56
|
|
And approve the proposed secondary property tax levy rate of .2425.
|
00:05:04
|
|
Per $100.00 of assessed value for FY24. Good morning, Elaine. Good morning. How are you doing this morning?

|
00:05:30
|
|
bonded indebtness or budget and tax overrides is greater than the amount levied for 2023 on this chain. This actual amount has is
|
00:05:37
|
|
unchanged from FY23 itself. It's still the .2425 as according to notices shall be published twice the newspapers, the general
|
00:05:45
|
|
circulation in the county, city or town. The notice was published in the June 30th.

continue to provide the services that the people.

00:12:04

00:12:22
|
|
I don't really, I don't have any questions. I have more or less just a comment you know about, you know you step back and you look
|
00:12:27
|
|
at everything that we've done for for the time that we've all been in office and still holding it that 4.19.
|
00:12:33
|
|
I think that's that's pretty cool. I think that's really good. So.
|
00:12:39
|
|
I'm glad we're able to do that, James.
|
00:12:44
|
|
As Chairman, I just want to point out at this at this point that we're having this.
|
00:12:48
|
|
TNT hearing that the maximum allowable tax rate for Henry County is nearly $7.00 per $100 assessed value.
|
00:12:52
|
|
That we.
|
00:13:00
|
|
You as a board.
|
00:13:01
|
|
Are conservative and holding taxes and keeping them as low as possible that we could be up nearly $7.00 per $100 and we're just
|
00:13:03
|
|
over $4.00. So my appreciation to each of you for.
|
00:13:09
|
|
You're conservative approach in keeping taxes low for the residents of either county.
|
00:13:16
|
|
I appreciate that, James. My only comment to that would be we wouldn't be in these chairs very long with half we did that might be
|
00:13:20
|
|
a recall going on really quick in HeLa County.
|
00:13:24
|
|
So thank you James, but that is a good point to make.
|
00:13:30
|
|
That, you know, for all of our years, plus the years behind us, it's been able to be held herself.
|
00:13:33
|
|
With that, I would open up the public hearings and do we have anyone in person?
|
00:13:39
|
|
And no one on YouTube still.
|
00:13:46
|
|
And the one here? So I'll close the public hearings and entertain a motion. Mr. Chair, I move to approve the heated county
|
00:13:49
|
|
proposed primary property tax levy rate of $4.19 per 100 of assessed value for fiscal year 2024.

Good morning, Mr. Chair Supervisors.
|
00:20:26
|
|
There have been no changes.
|
00:20:28
|
|
To the overall budget as proposed, presented and tentatively adopted.
|
00:20:30
|
|
On June 20th.
|
00:20:36
|
|
And we went through a pretty extensive PowerPoint presentation at that time.
|
00:20:37
|
|
And we have brought you since then.
|
00:20:41
|
|
And.
|
00:20:44
|
|
Component parts such as the salary plan that we talked about last week.
|
00:20:45
|
|
So today we just brought you the summary schedule. This is this was published in the newspaper is available at all of the Heela

00:20:59

|
And.
|
00:21:03
|
|
If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them.
|
00:21:04
|
|
Other than that, I think we're ready to go. Thank you, Mayor Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:21:08
|
|
No questions. Mr. Chair, Supervisor Christiansen, thank you, Mayor, for everything you've done. No questions.
|
00:21:12
|
|
So.
|
00:21:19
|
|
I'm gonna ask you guys, do you guys ever get comments on the budget or any big question you really on the budget? Because I don't.
|
00:21:20
|
|
No.
|
00:21:26
|
|
I mean, you know, when we hold our town halls and stuff like that, I really don't.
|
00:21:28
|
|
I don't ever have any questions now.
|
00:21:32
|
|
Most of the questions to me are are.
|
00:21:35
|
|
About them and and their.
|
00:21:38
|
|
Space in the world.
|
00:21:41
|
|
Not.
|
00:21:42
|
|
Right, counties, right. It's like they.
|
00:21:43
|
|
They care about their grocery list, not necessarily are.
|
00:21:47
|
|
I was on Kimmel yesterday and received the question as to whether or not we spend all of this every year. And I said no, we
|
00:21:51
|
|
probably spend between 60 and 70% of that and I hope I'm pretty close, but we budget.
|
00:21:58
|
|
For things that may not be anticipated, though, that's why it's so high. Go ahead, James.
|
00:22:06
|
|
Mr. Chairman and and kind of a little added to that, that we were required by state law to budget every single penny.
|
00:22:13
|
|
That we have or that we may have.
|
00:22:21
|
|
And so if we're planning a project, they're doing some things that there's potential that we could do in the coming year we have
|
00:22:24
|
|
to budget for. And so that's why you get in the 6070% that will actually spend.
|
00:22:30
|
|
Because we're preparing for and planning to or may not be able to fully.
|
00:22:37
|
|
Develop or fully implement a project that we're hoping to do.
|
00:22:42
|
|
It might be put off for a year or something like that, so.
|
00:22:46
|
|
That's why we're required by state law to.
|
00:22:49
|
|
Budget for every single penny that we have or could potentially have.
|
00:22:51
|
|
Good to know, man. Thank you. And so with that, I'll open up a.
|
00:22:57
|
|
Public hearing? Is there anyone yet impatient?
|
00:23:02
|
|
Cassie, you still with us?
|
00:23:10
|
|
I'm here. Yeah. There's no reason. No one impatient. OK. Thank you.
|
00:23:12
|
|

|
00:23:29

|
00:24:20
|
|
Do you need to speak before this or aye? Motion carries now. Now you can first Chairman, I just formed to point out that.
|
00:24:28
|
|
Last year, you last week you approved a salary plan payroll plan and I have not heard anything but positive from employees and
|
00:24:37
|
|
throughout the county. So thank you for including that in this budget to compensation for our employees.
|
00:24:44
|
|
It's really tough time to be able to address needs and.
|
00:24:53
|
|
It is to I don't know what we are totally eating every need, but it's it was a good effort and thank you for including that in
|
00:24:57
|
|
this budget.
|
00:25:01
|
|
Well, me personally, I appreciate you guys putting that together and and and our our folks do need that. It's it's pretty tough
|
00:25:05
|
|
right now. So thank you.

|
|
Moving on, #3 regular agenda items, Ma'am. Information, discussion, action.
|
00:25:14
|
|
To approve the preparation of budgeted and inter fund transfers for FY23 Mayor.
|
00:25:19
|
|
Good morning, Mr. Chair. Supervisors, back in January you gave us the approval to go ahead and get started working on.
|
00:25:26
|
|
Interfund transfers and budgetary transfers for what is known as the LA TCF funding. That's Local area and tribal consistency
|
00:25:34
|
|
funds.
|
00:25:38
|
|
We've gotten several rounds of guidance from our CPA's and auditors and external experts and that information is finally complete
|
00:25:43
|
|
and done. And we wanted to bring this back to you today to let you know that that was done for the end of the fiscal year and any
|
00:25:50
|
|
other transfers that needed to get done are made and.
|
00:25:57
|
|
Everything went really well and we had really good guidance from Mr. Manlove and from our partners at Heinz Field Meet.
|
00:26:05
|
|
To make sure that we are in compliance.
|
00:26:11
|
|
And with how that LTCF funding was handled?
|
00:26:14
|
|
And make sure that everything is.
|
00:26:17
|
|
Documented the way the auditors will want to see it.
|
00:26:21
|
|
Baron, thank you. Supervisor Humphrey, questions or comments?
|
00:26:24
|
|
Mr. Chair, no questions. Supervisor Christian, no questions. So a question I would have for you James, is that six million well.
|
00:26:28
|
|
Let's see now it's $12 million, right, if we got the other 6 million in or we just?
|
00:26:36
|
|
Dealing with the 1st.
|
00:26:41
|
|
I think the last comes before the end of end of September, OK. So it's still yet to to show up.
|
00:26:44
|
|
So somewhere along the way, are we gonna have a work session or something to show how, show the thoughts and whatever we need to
|
00:26:51
|
|
do to to spend this money?
|
00:26:55
|
|
Yes, Sir, absolutely. Yes.
|
00:27:01
|
|
I will work with Michael O'Driscoll to get on a work session agenda and get that in front of you. Thank you. I know Michael's got
|
00:27:04
|
|
plenty of time to do that too, man. So.
|
00:27:09
|
|
Do you want the like the 18 hour version or do you want like the?
|
00:27:13
|
|
Before lunch version.
|
00:27:18
|
|
Down deep and get it all handled OK.
|
00:27:20
|
|
You will be full blown auditors by the time we're done.
|
00:27:23
|
|
That's what Supervisor Humphreys really looking forward to.
|
00:27:27
|
|
Miss Chevron will also include in that the reconciliation of the original offer money, the 10 and a half million we got for the 10
|
00:27:31
|
|
and a half million plus.
|
00:27:35
|
|
What we're.
|
00:27:40
|
|
Have spent for the 12 million.
|
00:27:41
|
|
LACTFORLATCF and.
|
00:27:44
|
|
And get your ideas and thoughts of going forward.
|
00:27:48
|
|
And just so everybody knows that LTCF funds are basically a.
|
00:27:52
|
|
Uh.
|
00:27:58
|
|
Strengthen PILT version of money that comes from the feds.
|
00:28:00
|
|
Because we have so much in the way of public lands that we help administer.
|
00:28:04
|
|
That we don't receive taxes from.
|
00:28:09
|
|
And believe it or not, there's a lot of folks up.
|
00:28:12
|
|
Around not only in our county, but other counties that do not realize that money's out there.
|
00:28:15
|
|
And so.
|
00:28:21
|
|
So I I don't know. I'm always trying to explain that you know that hey, you know we only get 3% off of our our lands because so
|
00:28:22
|
|
much of it's.
|
00:28:27
|
|
Public lands.
|
00:28:32
|
|
But with this money, it does help it it it really does help a lot. So it was really grateful to get that.
|
00:28:33
|
|
Alright, thank you guys. So with that, I didn't know we're good. We're on the motion on that. We're good to go.
|
00:28:40

00:30:30
|
|
Ohh, Elaine, come on up and fill us in a little bit more on that. Thanks.
|
00:30:40
|
|
I I was just curious because it sounded really interesting to me. So.
|
00:30:44
|
|
So what is the 8 years that they've had that it was on Saturday at Casino in Payson?
|
00:30:48
|
|
Um, we had.
|
00:30:54
|
|
Approximately 550 people come in, so they have over 60 authors come in. A lot of them are local authors. I was on the authors.
|
00:30:55
|
|
Initially we also included local artists.
|
00:31:03
|
|
So we had a room with the artists showing their wares and all kinds of different things, not just paintings, but other other types
|
00:31:07
|
|
of art. And we also have the Kids Zone, which the library district is in charge of.
|
00:31:13
|
|
And we do story times and we do STEM projects, and this year we have Miss Susie come in and do 2 puppet shows for us. So it's kind
|
00:31:20
|
|
of all inclusive. We're trying to do literacy, starting from the little guys all the way up.
|
00:31:25
|
|
Um, and it has been very successful and they continue to do it.
|
00:31:31
|
|
Cool. Good. Good to know.
|
00:31:36
|
|
Thank you. Thank you for being a part of and thank you for supporting us. Yeah. Thank you with that.

Between Hillary County and the Present Value Veterans Retreat, incorporated in the amount of 11,920 dollars.
|
00:32:46
|
|
To provide the recruitment of veterans and their families and to perform marketing and fundraising, please which the which the
|
00:32:53
|
|
Board has determined to be for the band of the public that ones mine.
|
00:32:59
|
|
This is a little bit of.
|
00:33:06
|
|
Off breed of money, I guess you may say too. So I wanted to explain that a little bit. This $11,920 was actually raised from the
|
00:33:08
|
|
site and during for their yard sales.
|
00:33:14
|
|
Is what that was and and at the time.
|
00:33:20
|
|
You know, without money, the nonprofits didn't have any place to put it, so it ended up coming to the county to be put into the
|
00:33:22
|
|
county. So this is actually.
|
00:33:27
|
|
Money that isn't part of.
|
00:33:31
|
|
General funds or anything else, It's actually money.
|
00:33:34
|
|
That was raised from that site. So with that, I'd entertain any questions or comments, Tim.
|
00:33:37
|
|
I have no questions. Supervisor Humphrey or Christensen? No. Thank you. You're good.
|
00:33:43
|
|
OK, so with that I entertain a motion.
|
00:33:48

Having a motion and second all in favor do so by saying aye aye, aye, motion carries.
|
00:34:05
|
|
On the next 1D is Information Discussion Action to Approve Economic Development Agreement number 0629.

00:34:11

|
|
$5000 to repair and construct the announcer stand at Belvedere Park, which the board has determined to be for the benefit of the
|
00:34:29
|
|
public. That'll be all my constituent funds.
|
00:34:34
|
|
Wilbur, as we all know him, he's there. In San Carlos, he's he has.
|
00:34:41
|
|
He's been taking care of and maintaining of like a family ballpark there for quite a number of years.
|
00:34:47
|
|
I've known Wilbur a long, long time.
|
00:34:54
|
|
And it's really cool what he's doing out there. He's fixed it up and we've helped him with it. He's got Resolution Copper helping
|
00:34:56
|
|
him.
|
00:34:59
|
|
And others as well. They have events and everything else there. It's really.
|
00:35:02
|
|
Really cool setup right there, so.
|
00:35:07
|
|
I would entertain any questions on that Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:35:09
|
|
I have no questions. Supervisor Christensen, thank you. No questions. Was that entertain a motion?
|
00:35:14
|
|
Mr. Chairman, I'll move to approve Economic Development Agreement number 062923.
|
00:35:20
|
|
As presented and which the board of.
|
00:35:26
|
|
Supervisors had determined to be for the benefit of the public.
|
00:35:28
|
|
I will second that having a motion and a second all in favor. Do so by saying aye, aye, aye, motion carries.
|
00:35:32
|
|
Want to E?
|
00:35:40
|
|
Information, Discussion, Action.
|
00:35:42
|
|
To improve economic development.
|
00:35:45
|
|
Agreement number 063023 between Hilla County.
|
00:35:47
|
|
And Veterans of Foreign Wars, Louis E.
|
00:35:52
|
|
Hidden I I thought I was thinking.
|
00:35:58
|
|
Post.
|
00:36:00
|
|
1704 in the amount of $10,000.
|
00:36:02
|
|
To repair and replace the roof on Louie Higdon post 1704, which the board has determined to be for the benefit of the public.
|
00:36:06
|
|
And so this is mine as well. And that's the the post right here in in Globe. These folks came to us a while back. It's been a
|
00:36:17
|
|
while back.
|
00:36:21
|
|
And Veterans of Foreign Wars, and we've had this discussion before.
|
00:36:25
|
|
You know and I and I know that the legal side of it, and there's things we we address and we we fix.
|
00:36:31
|
|
You know, it's always been my thoughts. If it hadn't been for those, people would be seeking a foreign language and wouldn't be
|
00:36:38
|
|
worrying about about this right now, so.
|
00:36:41
|
|
But they've got roof issues on this building and they actually need more money than the $10,000 to fix this building.
|
00:36:46
|
|
I think they're actually mean like 20,000.
|
00:36:55
|
|
But they're wanting to try and get started, start trying to leverage money to try and put this all together to fix.
|
00:36:58
|
|
And so that's why we're here today. So I didn't. I would try the entertaining questions, Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:37:05
|
|
Well-being you opened that I have questions and my questions are is another gentleman from the same post.
|
00:37:12
|
|
Has also contacted me.
|
00:37:21
|
|
And let me know that they had trouble.
|
00:37:23
|
|
With their roof.
|
00:37:26
|
|
And they do fundraisers and they do for the public, but the part of the building that they do that.
|
00:37:28
|
|
There are correct extracurricular activities and things for the public.
|
00:37:33
|
|
Is where the roof is leaking, so it prevents them.
|
00:37:37
|
|
From doing things for the public.
|
00:37:40
|
|
For fundraisers.
|
00:37:43
|
|
And so when they approached me, I asked them to get bids.
|
00:37:45
|
|
So that I would know.
|
00:37:50
|
|
What they needed.
|
00:37:53
|
|
And I would try to help.
|
00:37:54
|
|
And and so from from where I'm at is, is it seems that.
|
00:37:57
|
|
That this is a is is.
|
00:38:05
|
|
Is in front of us to vote on.
|
00:38:08
|
|
But I don't understand in it and if it's only half of what the roof cost is.
|
00:38:10
|
|
Then then I'm wondering, you know what? What are they gonna do for their other half a roof?
|
00:38:17
|
|
And so if if that amount.
|
00:38:23
|
|
Is half the roof.
|
00:38:27
|
|
I don't know if we could change.
|
00:38:30
|
|
This.
|
00:38:33
|
|
As it is on the agenda.
|
00:38:36
|
|
But I would be willing to work out of my constituents.
|
00:38:39
|
|
To help your constituent funds.
|
00:38:44
|
|
To help them.
|
00:38:47
|
|
Get their whole roof fixed.
|
00:38:49
|
|
And so that's the question that I would have.
|
00:38:51
|
|
Because I would, I would you know, I mean if if if they did get bit, I haven't seen a bit.
|
00:38:55
|
|
And so I don't know if the bid has been presented to you or not for the amount of the roof but it was not presented to me and and
|
00:39:02
|
|
we everybody knows we can't talk to, nobody knows until we're sitting here in the public and opening cans of worms. But but anyway
|
00:39:08
|
|
I would, I would be willing to.
|
00:39:14
|
|
To work with that with my constituent funds.
|
00:39:20
|
|
To help.
|
00:39:24
|
|
You help them to complete their roof.
|
00:39:25
|
|
But like I said, I don't.
|
00:39:29
|
|
I I have just been asked by one of the Members.
|
00:39:31
|
|
And I asked him to get me a bid and he has not gotten back to me at this point so I don't know if they have other donors. I I
|
00:39:35
|
|
don't I don't know I I fully support this sure. I I'm I'm just trying to help in any way I can and not you know not to not to push
|
00:39:42
|
|
anything out or or whatever I'm I'm just trying to be sure that that that they get.
|
00:39:50
|
|
What they need to to continue and to be able to function.
|
00:39:58
|
|
To help themselves.
|
00:40:03
|
|
Can we work with the agenda item like that, Chairman? Yes. So in the request letter, it does indicate that they did receive two
|
00:40:06
|
|
bids from True Built Roofing and Monarch Roofing Systems. It said that it was attached to the request letter. I'm not seeing that
|
00:40:13
|
|
it was uploaded or an amount in there indicating how much it cost.
|
00:40:20
|
|
So.
|
00:40:29
|
|
Almost.
|
00:40:32
|
|
About $20,000 is but we can we can upload that those bids for that.
|
00:40:33
|
|
Yes, chairman and member supervisors, you do have the ability to modify the motion to add more monies to it if you have
|
00:40:39
|
|
constituent funds available. So is this something let me let me ask you supervisor, Christians and do you want to be a part of
|
00:40:45
|
|
this?
|
00:40:50
|
|
I hate to put you on the spot, but I'm going.
|
00:41:00
|
|
Yes, I would like to share it.
|
00:41:04
|
|
So this let's let's turn it into thirds.
|
00:41:06
|
|
Or anyone from the public or on YouTube. Come on if you can help too.
|
00:41:10
|
|
Right.
|
00:41:16
|
|
Hit hits, you know.
|
00:41:19
|
|
Ohh, so work with with that with thirds and then cut it down for all veterans of foreign wars. I mean it's it's.
|
00:41:26
|
|
Like I say that.
|
00:41:35
|
|
It it's a beautiful bunch of people that are trying to do things for the community and they're building is.
|
00:41:36
|
|
Is is preventing them from doing that?
|
00:41:41
|
|
And and so if we can help them do more for the public and to have functions in their facility, then yeah, it'll give back to the
|
00:41:44
|
|
community in in my opinion.
|
00:41:49
|
|
Mr. Chairman, can I suggest we each give 6000, which would be an $18,000.
|
00:41:55
|
|
Umm.
|
00:42:02
|
|
Amount.
|
00:42:03
|
|
We just split up equally three ways, whatever come 6000 somewhere though I think we are, I think we are split the bid up.
|
00:42:04
|
|
Three ways, yeah, Because if they're 2000 short, then we're gonna have to have a lemonade stand or something.
|
00:42:10
|
|
These other $2000, I think Kathy just stepped out to get them for six. Well 65 is you know not gonna put anybody else out. I know
|
00:42:16
|
|
my.
|
00:42:20
|
|
To work with an agenda item like that, but.
|
00:42:26
|
|
Yeah, absolutely. The agenda item is to approve an economic development grant. The board has a discussion to decide what that
|
00:42:29
|
|
amount would be and how you're gonna allocate funds for it. Ohh, I'd have to.
|
00:42:34
|
|
Going.
|
00:42:42
|
|
7.
|
00:42:50
|
|
Meeting.
|
00:42:54
|
|
Chairman, Board of Supervisors. The low bid is $21,450 and that is from True Built Roofing.
|
00:43:05
|
|
OK.
|
00:43:13
|
|
450 correct.
|
00:43:15
|
|
Supervisors are to entertain a motion on that.
|
00:43:18
|
|
You want me to do it?
|
00:43:23
|
|
I'm good.
|
00:43:25
|
|
Go ahead and any amount of goodness.
|
00:43:26
|
|
21,450. A third of that would be 7150.
|
00:43:29
|
|
OK, Mr. Chair.
|
00:43:37
|
|
I move to approve.
|
00:43:39
|
|
Economic Development Agreement number 063023.
|
00:43:41
|
|
As presented.
|
00:43:46
|
|
With the amount.
|
00:43:50
|
|
Uh, coming from each individual supervisor? Supervisor Christian?
|
00:43:53
|
|
Supervisor Humphrey, Supervisor Klein.
|
00:43:59
|
|

|
00:44:02
|
|
Putting in 7100.
|
00:44:04
|
|
And $50.00 to make the total.
|
00:44:07
|
|
Amount.
|
00:44:10
|
|
$21,450.
|
00:44:12
|
|
To be.
|
00:44:15
|
|
Which two board?
|
00:44:16
|
|
To which the board has determined to be to the benefit of the public. I will second that having a motion. And second, all in favor
|
00:44:19
|
|
diesel, by saying aye, aye, aye, aye.
|
00:44:24
|
|
Motion carries. Woohoo. Good. I'm glad we could do that for for that post. That's that's really good. Thank you. All right. Moving
|
00:44:29
|
|
on to #4 consent agenda action items. Do either one of you have anything we need to address?
|
00:44:37
|
|
Separately.
|
00:44:46
|
|
Mr. Chair, I don't care to pull anything. Supervision, I'm good.
|
00:44:48
|
|
And I'm good as well, so I didn't gain a motion.
|
00:44:52
|
|
To accept those, Mr. Chair moved to approve approve the consent agenda, Item 4A through 4G.
|
00:44:55
|
|
I'll second that having a motion in a second. All in favor, do stop by saying aye, aye, aye, aye. Motion carries.
|
00:45:02
|
|
Called to the public patient. Do we have any calls with the public?
|
00:45:09
|
|
No, Sir.
|
00:45:13
|
|
And how's YouTube doing?
|
00:45:14
|
|
No comments, huh?
|
00:45:19
|
|
And we don't have anyone here, so.
|
00:45:21
|
|
Close that and go into number six for our updates. James, do you have some updates?
|
00:45:24
|
|
Yes, Mr. Chair Chairman, Speaking of roofs I was.
|
00:45:30
|
|
Passing through town and knew that we were getting close, but notice that the roof on the Michaelson building.
|
00:45:34
|
|
Has been taken off, completely removed.
|
00:45:40
|
|
And so we are proceeding forward with getting that roof replaced on Michaelson building.
|
00:45:43
|
|
And then of course, City of Globe has partnered with the with the county.
|
00:45:49
|
|
And had gotten congressionally directed spending of $750,000 to remodel the interior of the building. So we get the roof replaced
|
00:45:54
|
|
in process. Now which?
|
00:45:59
|
|
I.
|
00:46:04
|
|
Was thrilled to see Saturday night.
|
00:46:06
|
|
And then moving forward on this course, Michaelson Building and intended purposes a business incubator.
|
00:46:08
|
|
It will have such.
|
00:46:15
|
|
President says a resolution will as indicated, they'll take an office. I'm speaking to Joe Heatherly on.
|
00:46:16
|
|
On.
|
00:46:23
|
|
Saturday.
|
00:46:26
|
|
And he is the on the ID, a board that I was talking to Joe Henley about the ID a Industrial Development Authority of Heeler County
|
00:46:28
|
|
having the president's in that building and he was excited about that, so.
|
00:46:34
|
|
Really thrilled to report that we are finally.
|
00:46:42
|
|
Moving forward on Microsoft building and that's going to come to pass. Cool. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. No wonder it rained last
|
00:46:45
|
|
night. Ohh. Huh.
|
00:46:48
|
|
No, No roof on it. Good. Whatever it takes. Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:46:53
|
|
Yeah, that that was coming. I was gonna make cause I had a wheelbarrow with six inches of water in the morning. So I hope they
|
00:46:58
|
|
hurry with that roof or it might take more remodeling on the inside. Anyway, attended the soft opening of the veteran center from
|
00:47:03
|
|
Young.
|
00:47:08
|
|
On Saturday and and my hats off to you.
|
00:47:13
|
|
The facility has come a long, long ways.
|
00:47:16
|
|
And it it's been a fight every step of the way, but it was well attended by some great people that were all part of the function.
|
00:47:22
|
|
And so it was a it was great to be there and and see that come together as it did so.
|
00:47:29
|
|
And and that's all I have.
|
00:47:36
|
|
Supervisor Christensen. Thank you. Mr. Chairman, first thing I'll start with is.
|
00:47:39
|
|
The Human County Community College.
|
00:47:44
|
|
Which has a campus in Payson and also here. So the Board of Supervisors formed a.
|
00:47:47
|
|
An Advisory Board.
|
00:47:53
|
|
And we met for the first time last week.
|
00:47:55
|
|
Umm.
|
00:47:59
|
|
The advisory boards main function.
|
00:48:01
|
|
Was to advise on how to become independent.
|
00:48:04
|
|
And perhaps accredited. And so there has been, however.
|
00:48:10
|
|
A real breakdown in.
|
00:48:16
|
|
The.
|
00:48:20
|
|
Association between EAC?
|
00:48:21
|
|
And Health Community College Board.
|
00:48:24
|
|
EAC currently has the posture that they're not going to be accepting.
|
00:48:29
|
|
New students.
|
00:48:33
|
|
This fall, which starts in about 3 weeks.
|
00:48:35
|
|
So um.
|
00:48:39
|
|
I've been given the task to contact EAC and see whether or not we can.
|
00:48:42
|
|
Negotiate some kind of a.
|
00:48:49
|
|
Truth in that so that we can at least have classes.
|
00:48:54
|
|
With the idea in mind that we would.
|
00:48:58
|
|
Be considering the needs of the student rather than.
|
00:49:02
|
|
The various personalities that may not be getting along at the moment so.
|
00:49:07
|
|
Consider that.
|
00:49:12
|
|
If anyone has any helpful advice that will take it.
|
00:49:14
|
|
So I was on the radio, came with yesterday, really went well.
|
00:49:18
|
|
And so it always does so.
|
00:49:23
|
|
And do that once a month, which people really appreciate. And then of course, I was also in attendance to the Veterans Retreat in
|
00:49:25
|
|
Young and it's awesome what's going on out there. They can't praise it enough. I think there's been a lot of teamwork involved
|
00:49:33
|
|
with that, with some leaders in that process that have just done exceptional.
|
00:49:40
|
|
So I think that facility will make us proud for decades to come and will really serve.
|
00:49:48
|
|
Our veteran community and so I'm very happy about that.
|
00:49:55
|
|
That's all I have. Thank you.
|
00:49:58
|
|
Mr. Chairman, Yeah, I'll make a comment on the Please do college.
|
00:50:00

Thank you, James. I think that one's gonna have lots of discussions on it before it's said and done.
|
00:51:10
|
|
And.
|
00:51:16
|
|
Unfortunately. And then we have a lot of people hanging out there wondering what's gonna happen.
|
00:51:17
|
|
Right now, so.
|
00:51:21
|
|
OK, I guess not to me.
|
00:51:24
|
|
Last Wednesday, me and Kathy went up here and Carol went with us to and we went up on top of Pioneer Pass and.
|
00:51:28
|
|
And visited the YC crew that's working for the.
|
00:51:36
|
|
The Globe Ranger District.
|
00:51:40
|
|
Visited with all them, really good bunch of kids. I had a great time this summer.
|
00:51:42
|
|
And look forward and hoping that we can do it again next year and.
|
00:51:47
|
|
In the leaders and everybody was real happy by the, you know, the way it went and then the projects they all accomplished.
|
00:51:52
|
|
That that crew worked out a globe, but they also worked.
|
00:51:59
|
|
I believe a week on the Patient Ranger District.
|
00:52:03
|
|
A week on the tunnel basin.
|
00:52:07
|
|
Maybe more than a week on Tunnel Basin, Ranger District and the rest time, here we go.
|
00:52:09
|
|
So they were able to move around and see some different places and.
|
00:52:13
|
|
And different projects and really enjoyed that.
|
00:52:17
|
|
I had a meeting last Thursday at the Butcher Hook on the NRCD district, the tunnel NRCD district.
|
00:52:20
|
|
We're we're working really hard right now to put together a grant.
|
00:52:27
|
|
For an invasive grass called yellow blue stem.
|
00:52:32
|
|
And that has to go in the end of this month and then we'll see about the end of the year, you know if we're awarded the grant or
|
00:52:35
|
|
not.
|
00:52:39
|
|
It'll be a grant to treat about 200 acres of it, which is just a small drop in the bucket.
|
00:52:43
|
|
For the issue that we have, but we're working hard on that.
|
00:52:48
|
|
Yesterday I attended the Ranching, Wildlife and Sportsmen's meeting and.
|
00:52:52
|
|
Phoenix North Phoenix at the Game of Fish office.
|
00:52:59
|
|
And carefree highway.
|
00:53:02
|
|
This was a group of us that was put together by outgoing Commission member Bill Break.
|
00:53:03
|
|
And what he did is? He asked.
|
00:53:10
|
|
I think there's five of us on the on the board from different parts to come together as a group to help with any issues between
|
00:53:12
|
|
sportsmen's ranchers.
|
00:53:17
|
|
Hunters, things like that, And it's been a really good meeting, one of the top.
|
00:53:23
|
|
Issues that that is out there and has been for a while or the OHP issues.
|
00:53:27
|
|
That's still.
|
00:53:32
|
|
There.
|
00:53:33
|
|
A lot of it is just a matter of enforcing it.
|
00:53:35
|
|
For enforcing the laws.
|
00:53:38
|
|
And all that comes about.
|
00:53:40
|
|
But you know, money, that's what it takes to do it. And so that's.
|
00:53:42
|
|
That's a big topic of this discussion right now.
|
00:53:45
|
|
And probably will continue to be for a while.
|
00:53:49
|
|
They have some water issues around the CAP canal down there that's been going on, which I believe that is probably a part of the
|
00:53:52
|
|
overall water issues in Arizona.
|
00:53:58
|
|
Which Craig Sullivan is on the water policy part of that?
|
00:54:04
|
|
And so we'll see where where that.
|
00:54:08
|
|
Turns along that as well.
|
00:54:10
|
|
The other question was asked on me.
|
00:54:13
|
|
Where we were with the 203 The Bertry Saddle Rd.
|
00:54:17
|
|
I haven't heard a word from it and I don't.
|
00:54:20
|
|
The last I knew Game and Fish was kind of getting pulled out of that.
|
00:54:24
|
|
Litigation part.
|
00:54:29
|
|
They still in?
|
00:54:31
|
|
Yes. Remember supervisors, we have the retainer agreement with our council, so we would be moving forward with game and fishes
|
00:54:33
|
|
participation right on. They're still in the mix, yes, correct. OK. So maybe sometime I'll get with you on some more.
|
00:54:40
|
|
Whatever it is. Thank you.
|
00:54:49
|
|
And so, So we'll see where that goes.
|
00:54:51
|
|
So these are the kind of issues that this group that we've tackled with this group and.
|
00:54:54
|
|
Some of them were pretty big issues. Um, Tomorrow I'm pulling out in the morning, I'll be going to DC.
|
00:55:01
|
|
I got it. I'm gonna get into DC tomorrow and then on Thursday at 9:00 o'clock DC time all testified to the.
|
00:55:08
|
|
Subcommittee House of Natural Resource Committee on Federal Lands the veterans site.
|
00:55:16
|
|
On conveying the veteran site.
|
00:55:23
|
|
Congressman Crane is putting that up. He'll be there and get that started. And so hopefully that goes good.
|
00:55:25
|
|
And we can get it through the house side of it.
|
00:55:31
|
|
From what I understand is the Senate side is already marking it up.
|
00:55:34
|
|
On that. So it'll be coming up on the Senate side sometime fairly soon, I believe.
|
00:55:40
|
|
And um.
|
00:55:45
|
|
Hopefully we'll get that done.
|
00:55:46
|
|
That'd be really, really cool to get that conveyed and done so.
|
00:55:48
|
|
We'll just see where it goes from there. Did you have something you want just just two seconds. I I was just gonna say, you know
|
00:55:54
|
|
sometimes a picture is worth 1000 words and Razor's Edge is been there and did some video if they could just put maybe something
|
00:56:00
|
|
short together.
|
00:56:05
|
|
For you to show them would would.
|
00:56:10
|
|
Would be.
|
00:56:15
|
|
So, so there's a long list of what you have to do to prepare for this. And so we got it in and went in this morning.
|
00:56:16
|
|
And I believe it came out like 3 or 4 pages of written testimony.
|
00:56:23
|
|
Just kind of a.
|
00:56:28
|
|
It had to become a broad.
|
00:56:30
|
|
Way that this project went I mean if we went in there every detail they they they wouldn't read it but you know but but it did
|
00:56:33
|
|
cover well and a lot of that was was from.
|
00:56:38
|
|
Cameron ohh going to do as well Kathy had been keeping a lot of good records. We have in there the.
|
00:56:44
|
|
The support from.
|
00:56:50
|
|
From the House and the Senate side and the different representatives and senators that has helped us.
|
00:56:52
|
|
Especially to show that it's a cross party lines, there's nothing.
|
00:56:58
|
|
Bipartisan you know, there's no, there's no, there's no games being played with this. Everybody seems to be for it. So we we
|
00:57:02
|
|
showed all that.
|
00:57:06
|
|
Which showed the support in the state.
|
00:57:10
|
|
From all the 15 counties supporting this project through the resolution that came out of CSA.
|
00:57:13
|
|
We have in there Representative Marshalls, Bill, showing the amount of money that he's putting into this project as well.
|
00:57:19
|
|
So I think when it as far as.
|
00:57:27
|
|
Being able to prove that it's a well supported project, I think we we've got it I.
|
00:57:30
|
|
I I just can't think of anything else to throw in there that would excellent be there, but.
|
00:57:35
|
|
And I only have 5 minutes. Yeah, that's your thing. So anyway, yeah.
|
00:57:42
|
|
It is.
|
00:57:49
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:57:51
|
|
But.
|
00:57:52
|
|
I'm happy to go testify. I really appreciate Congressman Crane. And for inviting me to do that, I think it's.
|
00:57:53
|
|
They'll be a good deal and if we can get it through the house side, get it through the tenant side, they'll be well on its way so.
|
00:58:00
|
|
And that's what we all are looking forward to. I know it's not, it's not that the Forest Service has been a bad partner or
|
00:58:07
|
|
anything like that. It's just it would be cleaner if the county owned that.
|
00:58:12
|
|
That site so.
|
00:58:17
|
|
So it's good.
|
00:58:19
|
|
Umm.
|
00:58:20
|
|
And then shortly after that, this, that's on the 20th at 9:00 o'clock, I catch a plane from there to Austin, TX.
|
00:58:23
|
|
That afternoon for Naco so.
|
00:58:31
|
|
I'll be in, I'll see Kathy and Nico will be there till Monday, I think next week playing back.
|
00:58:34
|
|
Other than that, we do have an update on the soft opening. I kind of wanted Kathy to give us that update.
|
00:58:41
|
|
You can you do that?
|
00:58:48
|
|
Overall
|
00:58:49
|
|
do you need this?
|
00:58:50
|
|
Figures. Maybe.
|
00:58:53
|
|
On Saturday, I think we kind of estimate there was about.
|
00:58:56
|
|
100 people there and we had some pretty good representation from.
|
00:58:59
|
|
Local government and state government and Federal Think Cinemas office sent someone crane's office.
|
00:59:04
|
|
Kelly's office.
|
00:59:11
|
|
Marshall, Representative Marshall was there, and we presented him with a really nice award that he was pretty surprised to get.
|
00:59:14
|
|
As you probably noticed, the folks that were there, we had T-shirts, hats.
|
00:59:21
|
|
Stickers and flags for sale. Was that it?
|
00:59:25
|
|
Yeah, and in donations, we raised $738.
|
00:59:28
|
|
And in sales we sold $1106.00 in.
|
00:59:33
|
|
Merchandise.
|
00:59:37
|
|
And yesterday I had a meeting with Kathy Davis, Cameron's wife, and she's going to host a fundraiser for us, probably in November.
|
00:59:39
|
|
And.
|
00:59:47
|
|
150 tickets at $100 goal is $25,000, but if we sell 150 tickets at $100, that's 15,000 right there. But she has a lot.
|
00:59:48
|
|
Planned.
|
00:59:58
|
|
Or they're part of this will be like the highest cost you can have, usually when you do a fundraiser. So they'll provide the
|
01:00:00
|
|
facility, they provide the staff, they provide the food.
|
01:00:04
|
|
They'll gather up wine and stuff like that to serve.
|
01:00:09
|
|
During the event, I can't think of everything she had that she gives, but I mean, our part monetarily is.
|
01:00:14
|
|
Really zero as assist our work as the board to go out and help.
|
01:00:20
|
|
Put this on. So I'm excited about that. We're starting to get some money.
|
01:00:25
|
|
Then that'll be a really good fundraiser for that, for the nonprofit and.
|
01:00:31
|
|
I really appreciate her and camera. I'm working on that force too that's that's a big undertaking to do that that's that's a lot
|
01:00:36
|
|
of lot of work so.
|
01:00:41
|
|
So I think everything as far as the site goes has come on great. I really want to thank the facility staff and all their hard
|
01:00:46
|
|
work.
|
01:00:50
|
|
But for this soft opening band, they were hurrying around there.
|
01:00:54
|
|
From one building to another and they did an outstanding job. Everything looked good and tucked away.
|
01:00:58
|
|
There's there's there's still some things that contractors are gonna do to finish up on, but our facilities people have really
|
01:01:04
|
|
done a outstanding job so.
|
01:01:08
|
|
I really want to thank all them on that too.
|
01:01:13
|
|
And I guess you guys had a chance to tour the buildings and.
|
01:01:16
|
|
Everything looks good. Any?
|
01:01:21
|
|
Recommendations or.
|
01:01:22
|
|
So outstanding actually very well done from what I saw before and what it is now.
|
01:01:26
|
|
It's just.
|
01:01:33
|
|
Night and day I wanna go over there and visit stay.
|
01:01:35
|
|
I mean it's doors are always open, it's not lights are on.
|
01:01:38
|
|
So.
|
01:01:42
|
|
That what what you all seen up there now is kind of wrapping down, wrapping up the first stage.
|
01:01:43
|
|
Of what's being done?
|
01:01:49
|
|
Representative Marshall's money, the $3,000,000 is coming into the third or second stage, I guess. And so there'll be some
|
01:01:52
|
|
meetings on that that will end up in front of us as a board on what's proposed or whatever Ferrari input. But I'm sure that's
|
01:01:57
|
|
going to start happening pretty quick, James.
|
01:02:03
|
|
I'm just gonna say that we do have two staff currently assigned to the Building Valley Veterans Retreat.
|
01:02:10
|
|
A facilities person and then also an events coordinator, program manager. So it will be getting things regularly scheduled.
|
01:02:16
|
|
And addition, for the fairgrounds we have a.
|
01:02:24
|
|
A permanent position assigned there to schedule events and that that person is coming on board too. So we're gonna increase our
|
01:02:28
|
|
activity and and putting.
|
01:02:32
|
|
Some money into investing in these recreational sites that we've been developing, so that's good news as well.
|
01:02:37
|
|
So you want me to go and say who's gonna go in the Pleasant Valley and get this done?
|
01:02:44
|
|
So it's my daughter, Lacey.
|
01:02:50
|
|
When this job flew, Lacey applied for that position, as did other people.
|
01:02:52
|
|
And actually the lady that was selected beat her out.
|
01:02:57
|
|
On the job.
|
01:03:02
|
|
Lady.
|
01:03:04
|
|
My name is Smith, Sarah Smith. I believe it was young lady came in there. The two was going to come in there to work, but due to
|
01:03:05
|
|
the fact she had little kids, she couldn't.
|
01:03:09
|
|
Couldn't get us a babysitter while she was working. Lacey was the next one in line for the job and I want to make that publicly
|
01:03:14
|
|
because I did not pull strings to get my daughter into this position. She she got there on her own, which is really cool and I'm
|
01:03:19
|
|
really proud of her to do that.
|
01:03:24
|
|
And so I wanted to put that out there.
|
01:03:29
|
|
James.
|
01:03:33
|
|
I'll just add that we made it very clear that LACE reports to through Deputy County Manager Michael O'Driscoll and and his team
|
01:03:35
|
|
and working there that.
|
01:03:40
|
|
There's no.
|
01:03:46
|
|
Connection As far as employment is concerned? Nope. With you as Chairman of the board.
|
01:03:47
|
|
Uh, through Chairman Klein, Yep. And so it'll work out very well. She's, she's really excited for the job and I expect her to see
|
01:03:52
|
|
her do good things, so.
|
01:03:57
|
|
You went in questions on that?
|
01:04:03
|
|
Comments. It'll come up guys, and trust me, it will come up somewhere along the way.
|
01:04:06
|
|
But.
|
01:04:12
|
|
I think the big thing is, is that this next stage, this $3,000,000, once there's some ideas kind of put together and whatnot,
|
01:04:13
|
|
it'll come up in front of us.
|
01:04:18
|
|
As a work session so we can discuss it and fill in our thoughts and.
|
01:04:23
|
|
All that and then move forward with the next stage and I'm really looking forward to that as well. It's gonna really add some
|
01:04:27
|
|
more.
|
01:04:30
|
|
More really cool things to that side, so.
|
01:04:34
|
|
I think.
|
01:04:37
|
|
Yeah.
|
01:04:39
|
|
I'm sorry, on the last couple of days, Thursday and Friday, just before our Saturday event, there was a lot to be done. There were
|
01:04:41
|
|
bids to be made and decorated to be done and pictures to be hung and throw pillows and.
|
01:04:47
|
|
All of that stuff that facilities.
|
01:04:53
|
|
We didn't expect facilities to decorate, so Frank and Sherry Grice came up to help and Sam and Tyler Trimble came And on Friday
|
01:04:56
|
|
night we finally staggered out of there about 10:00 o'clock after we hung those 20 some pictures in the hall and we really if they
|
01:05:03
|
|
wouldn't look nearly as nice if those two couples had come up to help me. So just wanted to say thank you to them.
|
01:05:11
|
|
Anyway, I think that's it. The only other thing I would say is I'm really frustrated with our furniture company, James, but I'm
|
01:05:21
|
|
hoping you've got that.
|
01:05:25
|
|
Somewhat.
|
01:05:29
|
|
Tended to.
|
01:05:30
|
|
Thank you. Do you either one of you have anything else you want to add or or anything on come up? No, no, I'm good. Thank you. OK.
|
01:05:33
|
|
So with that and we don't have any executive meetings today. So wow, it's only 11:00. O'clock and I think we're done. I'll adjourn
|
01:05:39
|
|
the meeting. Thank you all.
|
01:05:45
|
