|
00:00:04
|
|
|
Test.
|
00:00:05
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:00:07
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:00:11
|
|
|
I can certainly try.
|
00:00:20
|
|
|
One more.
|
00:00:24
|
|
|
Off first. Wow is it going by quick.
|
00:00:25
|
|
|
So are we ready and patient?
|
00:00:28
|
|
|
Actually.
|
00:00:35
|
|
|
Hey there, we getting patient to go?
|
00:00:38
|
|
|
But.
|
00:00:42
|
|
|
OK, good deal.
|
00:00:43
|
|
|
Cassie, you're ready.
|
00:00:45
|
|
|
Alright, I'll go ahead and you guys get.
|
00:00:47
|
|
|
Alright.
|
00:00:50
|
|
|
I'll go and open the meeting August 1st. It's 10:00 o'clock. Randy, You want me to send the pledge And then Richard Contrado from
|
00:00:51
|
|
|
Calgary Church will do the invocation.
|
00:00:56
|
|
|
I thought.
|
00:01:03
|
|
|
Ohh.
|
00:01:14
|
|
|
Thank you.
|
00:01:20
|
|
|
Heavenly Father God, we give you thanks for this day, God, and for your many blessings that you pour out on us.
|
00:01:21
|
|
|
And God, for this meeting today, God for the issues that will be discussed and for the decisions to be made. God we we ask that
|
00:01:27
|
|
|
you would give us wisdom of God, that you would give us discernment and all things God. And again we we pray for a blessing. God
|
00:01:33
|
|
|
for your hand to be upon us all here today. Father God, for this we give you thanks. We give you praise. In Jesus name we pray.
|
00:01:38
|
|
|
Amen.
|
00:01:44
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:01:50
|
|
|
Thank you, Sir.
|
00:01:51
|
|
|
OK, we'll start with #2 presentations.
|
00:01:55
|
|
|
2A Presentation regarding the activities of the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality.
|
00:01:59
|
|
|
In HeLa County and we have a map in order.
|
00:02:04
|
|
|
Matt, good morning. Come on up and.
|
00:02:08
|
|
|
Let's know who you are and who you're with and.
|
00:02:10
|
|
|
Great. Thank you. Yeah, my name is Matt Narder. I'm a hydrogeologist with the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality. And so
|
00:02:14
|
|
|
we really appreciate your time here this morning allowing us to come and speak and have a busy agenda.
|
00:02:20
|
|
|
Umm.
|
00:02:26
|
|
|
So the reason that I'm here is the US EPA is proposing to regulate a new group of chemicals. They go by the acronym PFS or we call
|
00:02:28
|
|
|
them PPAS.
|
00:02:32
|
|
|
And these proposed regulations, they're gonna have an impact all throughout Arizona and here in the county, particularly drinking
|
00:02:38
|
|
|
water providers. So one of the regulations that they're proposing is to limit the amount of these chemicals that can be in our
|
00:02:43
|
|
|
drinking water.
|
00:02:48
|
|
|
So.
|
00:02:53
|
|
|
Our drinking water systems throughout the state are going to have to comply with these limits.
|
00:02:55
|
|
|
And so ADQ is working throughout the state and here in the county with these water providers, we're helping them to sample.
|
00:02:59
|
|
|
To understand what's in their water and to to be prepared for these new regulations.
|
00:03:06
|
|
|
So we've got a short video here that's that's going to play. It's kind of just a brief overview kind of introduction to to what RP
|
00:03:11
|
|
|
fast and then talks a little bit in general about what's going on throughout the state. And then I think that you've been provided
|
00:03:17
|
|
|
fact sheets that talk more specifically about what's happening here in the county.
|
00:03:23
|
|
|
So I think after the video I'd be happy to go through this in more detail. You may have seen that.
|
00:03:29
|
|
|
There's a number of drinking water providers here in the county that have PCs in the water. And so I'm happy to talk about what
|
00:03:35
|
|
|
we're doing to work with those water providers and get them prepared.
|
00:03:40
|
|
|
Good.
|
00:03:45
|
|
|
OK, so we have again playoff step. Sorry.
|
00:03:46
|
|
|
There's a term for a group of chemicals that many Arizona residents are likely to hear more about in the coming years.
|
00:03:49
|
|
|
We had 80 Q would like to provide you with a brief introduction of PFAS in Arizona so you can understand what PFAS are, what EQ is
|
00:03:56
|
|
|
doing to address these chemicals in our environment and what steps to take now to protect your health.
|
00:04:02
|
|
|
1st it's important to understand some basic facts about PFAS.
|
00:04:10
|
|
|
PER and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS.
|
00:04:15
|
|
|
Are a large family of man-made chemicals that have been in use since the 1940s.
|
00:04:19
|
|
|
PFAS have unique physical and chemical properties that make them very useful for a wide range of applications.
|
00:04:24
|
|
|
Most notably stain and water resistance.
|
00:04:30
|
|
|
But these same properties can make them highly stable and resistant to degradation in the environment, earning them the nickname
|
00:04:33
|
|
|
forever Chemicals.
|
00:04:37
|
|
|
Because the length of their carbon fluorine tail and the structure of their functional head can vary.
|
00:04:42
|
|
|
Thousands of unique PFAS molecules are possible.
|
00:04:47
|
|
|
Some peace out there, been more commonly manufactured than others, including two of the most widely used and studied PFAS
|
00:04:51
|
|
|
molecules.
|
00:04:55
|
|
|
PFOA and PF OS.
|
00:04:59
|
|
|
Scientific studies have shown that exposure to some PFAS may be linked to harmful health effects in humans and animals.
|
00:05:02
|
|
|
Depending on how much PFAS someone is exposed to and for how long, certain PFAS can have potential harmful effects, for example
|
00:05:09
|
|
|
increasing the chance of getting some cancers, increasing cholesterol levels.
|
00:05:16
|
|
|
And affecting reproductive health and child development.
|
00:05:23
|
|
|
Because of their unique and beneficial properties.
|
00:05:27
|
|
|
Peasants have been incorporated into many common consumer products including carpets, furnishings, food packaging, cosmetics,
|
00:05:30
|
|
|
clothing, cookware and many others.
|
00:05:36
|
|
|
In some cases, consumers can choose to limit their exposure to PFAS, for example by avoiding products labeled as water or stain
|
00:05:42
|
|
|
resistant.
|
00:05:47
|
|
|
Avoiding food in contact with grease proof packaging.
|
00:05:51
|
|
|
And avoiding personal care products with fluorinated ingredients on the label.
|
00:05:55
|
|
|
Drinking PFAS contaminated water is another potential source of exposure, but one that for many is not easily avoided through
|
00:06:00
|
|
|
personal choice alone.
|
00:06:04
|
|
|
However, in most cases, exposure to contaminated drinking water can be eliminated through testing, regulation and treatment.
|
00:06:08
|
|
|
Something we'll discuss more in just a bit.
|
00:06:16
|
|
|
The life cycle of Pfaff starts when they are first manufactured by industry.
|
00:06:19
|
|
|
Although Arizona has not historically been home to any PFAS manufacturers, these chemicals can make their way to our state through
|
00:06:23
|
|
|
the purchase of consumer products.
|
00:06:28
|
|
|
The use of firefighting foams.
|
00:06:33
|
|
|
And as raw materials used in the production of other products.
|
00:06:35
|
|
|
People may be exposed directly from using these products, but as they are used or thrown away, they also enter our landfills and
|
00:06:40
|
|
|
our wastewater treatment plants.
|
00:06:44
|
|
|
And in turn can be released into the environment where they can accumulate and do not easily breakdown. From there. They may end
|
00:06:49
|
|
|
up in our food or our drinking water.
|
00:06:53
|
|
|
With PFAS so common in the world today, it's not surprising that we find these chemicals in our bodies as well.
|
00:07:00
|
|
|
The CDC has measured PFAS in the US population since 1999 and has found that PFAS are present in the blood of 99% of Americans.
|
00:07:06
|
|
|
However, since 2002 the production and use of two of the most common PFAS, PFOA and PF OS.
|
00:07:16
|
|
|
Has declined, and researchers have seen a corresponding decline in blood levels.
|
00:07:25
|
|
|
In the case of PFOS, by more than 85%.
|
00:07:30
|
|
|
Therefore, despite their forever chemical nickname, we can see that reducing exposure to these chemicals can have a positive
|
00:07:34
|
|
|
impact on the levels in our bodies.
|
00:07:38
|
|
|
These thoughts are not currently regulated at the national level or in Arizona.
|
00:07:43
|
|
|
The US Environmental Protection Agency first released provisional PFAS health advisories in 2009, which defined advisory levels
|
00:07:48
|
|
|
for PFOA and PF OS.
|
00:07:54
|
|
|
Since that time, the advisory levels have been revised lower, first in 2016 and again in 2022, and were expanded to include
|
00:08:00
|
|
|
additional compounds, PFBS and Genex chemicals.
|
00:08:06
|
|
|
Health advisories are not legally enforceable. They identify the concentration of the contaminant in drinking water at which
|
00:08:13
|
|
|
adverse health effects are not anticipated to occur over a lifetime.
|
00:08:18
|
|
|
In March 2023, EPA took the next step.
|
00:08:25
|
|
|
After many years of study and recent research, EPA proposed a national primary drinking water regulation.
|
00:08:28
|
|
|
The proposed regulation would create a maximum contaminant level, or MCL, for six common PFAS.
|
00:08:35
|
|
|
And MCL is the maximum concentration of the contaminant allowed in drinking water that can be delivered by a public water system.
|
00:08:41
|
|
|
EPA has proposed to regulate PFOA and PFOS at a level of four parts per trillion, while four other Pfas are proposed to be
|
00:08:49
|
|
|
regulated as a mixture using a standard calculation called a hazard index.
|
00:08:56
|
|
|
These proposed MCL's were developed by EPA to account for chronic exposures to low levels of PFAS over time at concentrations
|
00:09:03
|
|
|
typically found in drinking water. They're not dangerous in the same way as acute water contaminants like E coli, which may be
|
00:09:09
|
|
|
dangerous if consumed even once.
|
00:09:15
|
|
|
It may be helpful to understand the unit of measure that's being used by EPA for the proposed regulation. One part per trillion is
|
00:09:22
|
|
|
equivalent to a single drop of water in 20 Olympic sized swimming pools.
|
00:09:28
|
|
|
So this hopefully gives you an idea of just how small these numbers really are and also how cautious EPA is being about the long
|
00:09:34
|
|
|
term risks associated with exposure to PFAS in our drinking water.
|
00:09:40
|
|
|
18 Q is closely following Pfaff developments at the federal level, and the EPA has developed a road map that lays out their
|
00:09:46
|
|
|
commitment to take specific actions.
|
00:09:51
|
|
|
It's expected that EPA will finalize the proposed drinking water regulation within the next year.
|
00:09:56
|
|
|
However, implementation of the final rule will occur three years later, giving States and water providers the time needed to
|
00:10:01
|
|
|
address contamination.
|
00:10:06
|
|
|
In addition to drinking water regulations, EPA has proposed designating certain PFAS as hazardous substances.
|
00:10:11
|
|
|
Which would allow the state and federal government to hold polluters accountable.
|
00:10:18
|
|
|
An EPA has also proposed aquatic life standards to help protect wildlife in our streams and rivers.
|
00:10:22
|
|
|
These are all just a few of the many federal PFAS developments that are expected over the next several years.
|
00:10:29
|
|
|
So what is ADEQ doing about PFAS in Arizona?
|
00:10:36
|
|
|
And Q is taking several steps to protect public health and help our state prepare for future EPA actions.
|
00:10:39
|
|
|
Beginning in 20/18/80, Q conducted targeted screening efforts to understand the scope of PFAS impact in Arizona.
|
00:10:47
|
|
|
This testing included drinking water, groundwater, wastewater and biosolids.
|
00:10:55
|
|
|
In 2023, we began A comprehensive PFAS testing program to make sure that all of Arizona's regulated drinking water systems are
|
00:11:01
|
|
|
sampled for PFAS in advance of federal regulations.
|
00:11:07
|
|
|
If PFAS are detected, we can begin working right away with affected water providers to collect more data, find solutions and
|
00:11:13
|
|
|
identify funding to reduce exposure to PFAS.
|
00:11:18
|
|
|
We'll have more details on this important program in just a moment.
|
00:11:24
|
|
|
While we're actively working to protect drinking water, we're also trying to identify the most effective ways to prevent more PFAS
|
00:11:27
|
|
|
from entering our environment.
|
00:11:32
|
|
|
Any Key recently piloted a program to help Arizona fire departments stop their use of PFAS containing aqueous film forming foams
|
00:11:36
|
|
|
known as a Triple F.
|
00:11:41
|
|
|
The program was allocated $395,000 during fiscal year 2023, which allowed us to take back and replace foam from over 50 fire
|
00:11:47
|
|
|
stations, removing over 9000 gallons of PFAS containing foam from being used. We had 275 gallons that we no longer brutalizing
|
00:11:53
|
|
|
because of risk.
|
00:11:59
|
|
|
Had truck easily pulled up, loaded it and unloaded that at 500 that will now be able to distribute to our drugs.
|
00:12:06
|
|
|
Being involved in this program and it was so essential and critical for us to get rid of these chemicals.
|
00:12:14
|
|
|
As mentioned earlier, Aiding and Q is currently engaged in a comprehensive statewide effort to ensure that all regulated water
|
00:12:19
|
|
|
systems are tested for PFAS.
|
00:12:23
|
|
|
EPA is currently requiring that systems serving 3300 customers or more sample their drinking water for PFAS.
|
00:12:28
|
|
|
However, in the state of Arizona, the majority of systems serve fewer than 3300 people and will not be sampled under the EPA
|
00:12:36
|
|
|
program.
|
00:12:40
|
|
|
Therefore, 80 Q has committed to using $3 million of federal Safe Drinking Water Act funds to sample these small water systems and
|
00:12:44
|
|
|
help ensure that all regulated water systems in Arizona will be tested.
|
00:12:50
|
|
|
Results are generally provided to water systems within two to four weeks of sampling and are posted to the ADQ website.
|
00:12:56
|
|
|
If PFAS are detected, 80Q provides the system with the PFAS toolkit, especially developed to help water systems meet the
|
00:13:03
|
|
|
challenges of this may cause.
|
00:13:08
|
|
|
The toolkit includes information on funding, customer communication and potential next steps.
|
00:13:14
|
|
|
Systems are asked to follow EPA recommendations to inform their customers of the results.
|
00:13:20
|
|
|
Our program to test small drinking water systems has a number of benefits for the systems and their customers.
|
00:13:26
|
|
|
First, it provides PFAS sampling to systems at no charge, potentially saving them thousands of dollars.
|
00:13:32
|
|
|
These systems can then be notified of PFAS detections much earlier than if they wait until they are required to sample under
|
00:13:39
|
|
|
forthcoming federal regulations.
|
00:13:43
|
|
|
For those systems with PFAS concentrations higher than the EPA's proposed limits, they can get a head start planning for expanded
|
00:13:49
|
|
|
testing, evaluating potential solutions.
|
00:13:54
|
|
|
And applying for federal funding if necessary.
|
00:13:59
|
|
|
With many systems across the nation facing similar challenges, it's important that Arizona's drinking water providers begin
|
00:14:03
|
|
|
planning to meet the new rules as soon as possible.
|
00:14:07
|
|
|
So what can you do if PFAS is detected in your drinking water?
|
00:14:12
|
|
|
If your water is confirmed to contain PFAS, in many cases action is not necessary immediately. You can choose to reduce your
|
00:14:16
|
|
|
exposure as soon as possible by not using untreated water for activities like drinking, cooking, washing produce, brushing teeth,
|
00:14:22
|
|
|
or preparing formula.
|
00:14:28
|
|
|
However, it's generally safe to continue using untreated water for activities like washing dishes, showering laundry, swimming and
|
00:14:34
|
|
|
watering your yard.
|
00:14:39
|
|
|
If you have concerns about PFAS in your water, there are a number of at home treatments available such as activated covenants and
|
00:14:44
|
|
|
verse osmosis.
|
00:14:48
|
|
|
You can check sources such as the NSF.
|
00:14:53
|
|
|
Or your local filter installer For more information on effective treatment systems for your home.
|
00:14:56
|
|
|
It should be noted that boiling water will not remove PFAS and bottled water providers are not required to test for PFAS, so use
|
00:15:01
|
|
|
caution if you choose to drink bottled water.
|
00:15:06
|
|
|
Pizzas can be a complicated topic and this presentation is meant only as a brief introduction.

Thank you for listening.
|
00:15:38
|
|
|
Xbox recently?
|
00:15:43
|
|
|
Any questions I can answer? I'll bet there are Matt. Supervisor, Humphrey.
|
00:15:47
|
|
|
Well.
|
00:15:51
|
|
|
I I don't have a lot of questions.
|
00:15:52
|
|
|
Because it was pretty explanatory and went through it, and they're going to be checking for it and it just seemed like they're
|
00:15:56
|
|
|
going to sell an awful lot of osmosis purifiers because boiling water, nothing else will fix it.
|
00:16:01
|
|
|
So.
|
00:16:08
|
|
|
I I that that's what I got out of the presentation.
|
00:16:10
|
|
|
And you know, I mean.
|
00:16:13
|
|
|
And the funding for?
|
00:16:15
|
|
|
All of this is, you know, it's it's for the water companies.
|
00:16:17
|
|
|
Not necessarily the individuals that want to put a purifying system.
|
00:16:20
|
|
|
On their home, is that correct? Correct. But the hope is that the the water systems will install treatment or find other ways that
|
00:16:24
|
|
|
there's other ways to lower exposure to PFAS. So you know maybe turning off an impacted well if there's multiple wells versus them
|
00:16:31
|
|
|
or or other things. But the hope is that the systems will be serving clean water, so that this.
|
00:16:38
|
|
|
The burden doesn't go into the customers. And is this a federally?
|
00:16:46
|
|
|
Funded.
|
00:16:49
|
|
|
Process.
|
00:16:51
|
|
|
So, so there is funding available to these water providers to help them initially.
|
00:16:53
|
|
|
Eventually the you know, the cost of running the system with additional treatment will likely be borne by the water providers
|
00:17:01
|
|
|
themselves, but there's a lot of funding available initially for systems to to help them find solutions to this.
|
00:17:09
|
|
|
I I mean.
|
00:17:17
|
|
|
The the people that are testing the systems.
|
00:17:19
|
|
|
Is that a federally funded program? Yeah, so, so, so it's it's sort of both. So the larger systems that's a federally funded
|
00:17:22
|
|
|
program, EPA is requiring these systems to to treat, but most of our systems in Arizona are smaller systems.
|
00:17:29
|
|
|
And so that's where AQ stepping in now. We are using mostly federal funding to do that, but it's actually a DQ that's stepping in
|
00:17:36
|
|
|
and doing the sampling right now.
|
00:17:40
|
|
|
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
|
00:17:46
|
|
|
Thank you.
|
00:17:47
|
|
|
Supervisor Christensen.
|
00:17:48
|
|
|
Thank you, Chairman. Thank you, Matt. Very interesting. I've never heard of it before.
|
00:17:49
|
|
|
And.
|
00:17:55
|
|
|
You're saying that this does not naturally occur in our water. These are 100% chemicals.
|
00:17:56
|
|
|
So when I see Christopher Creek, Jakes Corner Rim, Trail, Strawberry, how, I mean how those are very rural areas. So just
|
00:18:02
|
|
|
interesting to think first of all.
|
00:18:07
|
|
|
A part per trillion is an extremely small.
|
00:18:13
|
|
|
Number. I don't even know how you find something that can test that, but.
|
00:18:18
|
|
|
You know, that's a million, million parts.
|
00:18:22
|
|
|
So yes, anyway.
|
00:18:25
|
|
|
It's, it's how dangerous is this really and how does it end up in our rural areas? Yeah, so, So one of the things that kind of
|
00:18:27
|
|
|
sets PFAS apart from a lot of other chemicals that we deal with is the fact that it bioaccumulates. So it can accumulate in plants
|
00:18:33
|
|
|
and animals and can accumulate in our bodies. And that's part of the reason why EPA is concerned with such low levels because
|
00:18:40
|
|
|
essentially our our bodies can't pass it out.
|
00:18:46
|
|
|
Fast enough or faster than it's coming in and so it'll tend to build up. So even though we might be drinking these low levels, it
|
00:18:53
|
|
|
can build up overtime. But you are right, these are very, very low numbers. The EPA, you know is looking at all sorts of
|
00:18:58
|
|
|
uncertainty factors and trying to make sure that they're.
|
00:19:04
|
|
|
Limiting this as much as possible and what we're We're drinking.
|
00:19:11
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:19:16
|
|
|
Alright.
|
00:19:16
|
|
|
If something is passed legislatively, how will that affect us?
|
00:19:18
|
|
|
Meaning if the border supervisors or.
|
00:19:24
|
|
|
The county.
|
00:19:27
|
|
|
So, so I think that the biggest thing is these making sure that these drinking water providers are are able to come incline, so
|
00:19:29
|
|
|
you know for example for the county. So first of all we want to come here to make sure that you guys are informed of what we're
|
00:19:36
|
|
|
doing that we're doing the sampling. So if you're going to questions about you know some of the sampling or these results, you
|
00:19:44
|
|
|
know what's going on but then beyond that to be able to advocate for for funding so we have a a small water system fund.
|
00:19:51
|
|
|
That it's really important that that gets funded because those funds go directly to these small water providers to help them in
|
00:19:58
|
|
|
situations like this.
|
00:20:02
|
|
|
So being able to help advocate for that on things like you saw the.
|
00:20:07
|
|
|
Are the Triple F removal program so going to these rural fire departments and helping them to change out because that could be
|
00:20:11
|
|
|
expensive to change out the the firefighting foam that had PFAS in it.
|
00:20:17
|
|
|
So, so being able to find systems like that that that would be a real help from.
|
00:20:23
|
|
|
OK. I appreciate it, Matt. Thanks. Thank you, Chairman.
|
00:20:27
|
|
|
So Matt, did did you say in there that they don't test these?
|
00:20:31
|
|
|
Correct. How come?
|
00:20:35
|
|
|
Well, the FDA is, is in charge of rules for bottled water. It's not the EPA, it's the FDA, it's a food product. And so they, they
|
00:20:37
|
|
|
don't have any regulations right now that requires bottled water providers to test for it. So it's not necessarily saying that
|
00:20:44
|
|
|
it's there, although some studies have shown that there are. They've shown PFAS and bottled water, but we just don't know.
|
00:20:51
|
|
|
So because they're not testing for it, I that that kind of amazes me because everybody drinks these, you know, bottled water these
|
00:20:58
|
|
|
days.
|
00:21:02
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:21:06
|
|
|
Well, thank you for your presentation.
|
00:21:07
|
|
|
Thanks for coming out and taking time. And Mr. Chairman. Yeah, of course. Yeah, go ahead on the handout that you that is being
|
00:21:09
|
|
|
shown up here. We've got a list of water companies in HeLa County.
|
00:21:15
|
|
|
There's certainly not all the water companies and Henry County that are listed.
|
00:21:22
|
|
|
Most notably Clove and Arizona Water Company. That's in.
|
00:21:26
|
|
|
Right here in.
|
00:21:30
|
|
|
Gold Miami area.
|
00:21:31
|
|
|
Why are they not listed and does that mean well?
|
00:21:33
|
|
|
Yeah. So that's a really good question. So what's, what's on the fact sheet, This is our AQ's program to sample the smaller water
|
00:21:37
|
|
|
providers. So the larger water providers are being sampled by EPA and that sampling is ongoing over the next couple of years. So
|
00:21:43
|
|
|
we don't have those results in yet. The water providers themselves, for those larger water providers, they're going to be doing
|
00:21:49
|
|
|
the sampling and then and then they're going to be getting those results back. AQ won't get them directly. So what these are are
|
00:21:55
|
|
|
all the smaller.
|
00:22:01
|
|
|
Other providers that we've gone out and sampled and then actually this list is subset of those.
|
00:22:07
|
|
|
Because this is just showing the systems where we've actually detected Ppas.
|
00:22:12
|
|
|
There's a number of systems, so it's 46 total systems that we've sampled to date.
|
00:22:17
|
|
|
And of those, 28 which are listed here have had PFAS detections.
|
00:22:21
|
|
|
Mr. Chairman, So there's of the 28 that are listed, there's some that say, yes, that means they're above the one park trillion.
|
00:22:26
|
|
|
If they say no, then they're they're detected below the one part trillion. Yeah, so, so the the limit there that the yes or the no
|
00:22:33
|
|
|
is what EPA is proposing is the limit.
|
00:22:38
|
|
|
Um, so.
|
00:22:43
|
|
|
Primarily it's about four parts per trillion depending on the chemical. But yeah, so the ones that say yes are.
|
00:22:45
|
|
|
Would be if the proposed regulation is put into place, those would exceed the regulation. They would need to do something to to
|
00:22:52
|
|
|
lower the amount in their water.
|
00:22:56
|
|
|
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Judge, just one question.
|
00:23:01
|
|
|
You say that the PFAS is in the firefighters foam that they're trying to replace.
|
00:23:04
|
|
|
About the slurry that's dropped on rural fires.
|
00:23:09
|
|
|
Is it contain it? It's a really good question. No, in general it does not. Those are phosphate based. So P pass is used primarily
|
00:23:13
|
|
|
to control liquid fuel fires because the gasoline OK.
|
00:23:19
|
|
|
You know, cause we we get a lot of fires and have had a lot of fire. So just a question that came up. Yeah, great question. Thank
|
00:23:26
|
|
|
you very much.
|
00:23:29
|
|
|
Matt, thank you. Thanks for being here. Thank you.
|
00:23:34
|
|
|
All right, on to the TB public recognition of three employees through the County Spotlight on Employees program as follows. Reyes
|
00:23:38
|
|
|
Barajas, Larry Dooley and John Desera and we have Erica this morning.
|
00:23:45
|
|
|
Good morning. Morning.
|
00:23:51
|
|
|
Again, thank you so much for your time today.
|
00:23:53
|
|
|
Um, as mentioned, we do have three employees that were nominated for this month, and I'll read them off.
|
00:23:56
|
|
|
Um, first and foremost we have raised Ross. Who?
|
00:24:03
|
|
|
His Spotlight nomination read.
|
00:24:07
|
|
|
A raise played a crucial role directly supporting the 2023 Globe in Miami Little League.
|
00:24:09
|
|
|
Reyes worked with Little League officials to identify repairs, maintenance and support needs to prepare the baseball complex for
|
00:24:15
|
|
|
the 2023 baseball season.
|
00:24:19
|
|
|
Raise support of their creation of work orders, Maintenance Checklist, Resource allocation, task completion to ensure the baseball
|
00:24:24
|
|
|
complex was in working order.
|
00:24:28
|
|
|
Raised, his efforts successfully enabled hundreds of community members and youth to participate in Community Sport Ultimate,
|
00:24:33
|
|
|
ultimately facilitating 235 baseball games.
|
00:24:38
|
|
|
UM raises with facilities and has been with the county over 9 1/2 years and release.
|
00:24:43
|
|
|
Yes, we just speech from this. Yeah. No, OK, just asking.
|
00:24:54
|
|
|
Next we have Larry Dooley, his nomination read.
|
00:25:02
|
|
|
UM Larry played a critical role in enabling the success of the courthouse electrical project. It was imperative that the
|
00:25:06
|
|
|
electrical project went to plan, ensuring the continuation of Heela County Board of Supervisors, courts, recorders, assessors,
|
00:25:11
|
|
|
treasurers.
|
00:25:16
|
|
|
Sheriff's and school Superintendent operations.
|
00:25:21
|
|
|
The process the project was a success due to Larry's direct support with logistics, communication and teamwork.
|
00:25:24
|
|
|
Larry built a Power Distribution hub and installed a 777 kilowatt generator, safeguarding servers and communication.
|
00:25:31
|
|
|
By providing emergent.
|
00:25:39
|
|
|
Power and cooling.
|
00:25:41
|
|
|
Once the project was completed, Larry worked with it, conducting inspections and reactivating communications.
|
00:25:42
|
|
|
Larry is also with facilities and has been with the county over 13 years. Larry.
|
00:25:49
|
|
|
You're welcome to give the speech as well.
|
00:26:01
|
|
|
Congratulations, Larry.
|
00:26:05
|
|
|
And next we have a John Desera.
|
00:26:08
|
|
|
John also directly supported the 2023 Globe and Miami Little League.
|
00:26:12
|
|
|
John Tyler tirelessly worked the baseball complex with field preparation, mowing, trash removal, watering, cleaning and conducting
|
00:26:16
|
|
|
repairs.
|
00:26:21
|
|
|
His efforts of preparing the baseball complex enabled the 2023 baseball season to kick off on schedule.
|
00:26:25
|
|
|
John's hard work ensured the baseball complex was in working order throughout the season, successfully enabling hundreds of
|
00:26:32
|
|
|
community members and youth to participate.
|
00:26:36
|
|
|
And again, ultimately facilitating 235 baseball games.
|
00:26:40
|
|
|
John is also with facilities and has been with the county over 13 years. John.
|
00:26:44
|
|
|
Thank you, guys. Congratulations. Thank you.
|
00:26:58
|
|
|
And that does conclude our spotlight sensation Erica. Thank you Supervisor Humphrey and comments.
|
00:27:01
|
|
|
No, just thank you for all you do. We appreciate it very much.
|
00:27:08
|
|
|
Supervisor Christiansen, thank you, Chairman. Thank you, Erica. And you know, it just goes to show we have the best employees.
|
00:27:12
|
|
|
I did want to share something though.
|
00:27:19
|
|
|
Because Reyes and John.
|
00:27:21
|
|
|
Told me that they get a really great support from the incarceration, the, the.
|
00:27:24
|
|
|
Prisoners.
|
00:27:31
|
|
|
That come and help and there's about four of them, they said.
|
00:27:32
|
|
|
And they do a fantastic job as well and I know we don't recognize them, but I just wanted to kind of do a shout out to say.
|
00:27:35
|
|
|
That that program.
|
00:27:43
|
|
|
Is beneficial to them and to us as well.
|
00:27:45
|
|
|
So thank you.
|
00:27:49
|
|
|
Thank you, guys. Good job. Thank you, Erica. Thank you.
|
00:27:51
|
|
|
Okay Honda 2C Presentation of March 31st.
|
00:27:55
|
|
|
23 through April 30th, 23 and May 31st 23 Helen County financial data as it compares to the Fiscal year 23 HeLa County budget.
|
00:27:59
|
|
|
And fiscal years 2020 2/21/20 and 19 year to date performance. Good morning Mayor.
|
00:28:09
|
|
|
It's OK we got them now.
|
00:28:21
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:28:22
|
|
|
Sorry about that. My my agenda quick and I were not apparently cooperating with each other.
|
00:28:38
|
|
|
So what each of you have are the past three months bar charts.
|
00:28:43
|
|
|
That will go in the budget book.
|
00:28:48
|
|
|
And those just show you and our constituents.
|
00:28:50
|
|
|
Where we were relative to budget and that month.
|
00:28:54
|
|
|
Targets.
|
00:28:59
|
|
|
There's nothing super interesting in them and I know you've been through several presentations already this morning, so.
|
00:29:01
|
|
|
I'm just going to give you the highlights for the month of May and then we'll be back.
|
00:29:07
|
|
|
Probably in September with an update on where we ended through the year.
|
00:29:13
|
|
|
So at the end of May 2023, which is 11 months into the fiscal year.
|
00:29:18
|
|
|
Our general fund revenues were 89% of the annual budget.
|
00:29:23
|
|
|
Which compares to 92% target.
|
00:29:27
|
|
|
And in total.
|
00:29:31
|
|
|
We were 1.6 million over the same time in 2022.
|
00:29:33
|
|
|
Of that 1.6 excise tax made-up almost half of it with $741,000 in additional excise tax.
|
00:29:39
|
|
|
And 18% of additional state shared sales tax.
|
00:29:48
|
|
|
For expenditures.
|
00:29:53
|
|
|
We were at 92% of the budget.
|
00:29:55
|
|
|
Including encumbrances compared to 92% year to date target, which is exactly where you want to be, we were $5 million higher than
|
00:29:59
|
|
|
the previous year.
|
00:30:03
|
|
|
Um, and of that 2.3 million was encumbrances.
|
00:30:08
|
|
|
And then?
|
00:30:14
|
|
|
Compared to the prior year, our salaries were salaries and benefits were about.
|
00:30:15
|
|
|
$4 million over the previous year.
|
00:30:21
|
|
|
And then we had a couple other line items that were a little higher. So that summaries right there on the front page.
|
00:30:23
|
|
|
Including a little bit of extra detail.
|
00:30:29
|
|
|
So that you.
|
00:30:32
|
|
|
As our supervisors and the public when we bring the budget book in a few months.
|
00:30:33
|
|
|
Um, so that that data is available and we're being transparent?
|
00:30:38
|
|
|
And so you, as the supervisors know, and so the general public knows, are.
|
00:30:42
|
|
|
Financial data is uploaded quarterly to the state transparency site.
|
00:30:46
|
|
|
And members of the public or members of staff or elected officials can go on that page.
|
00:30:51
|
|
|
And use the different tools to see what kind of graphs and stuff you get out of that. They're not as granular as what we give you
|
00:30:56
|
|
|
here for general funds, but they are transaction by transaction.
|
00:31:03
|
|
|
So anybody that wanted to see could go look at that.
|
00:31:10
|
|
|
Happy to answer any questions and happy to make sure I attach my attachments correctly next time.
|
00:31:13
|
|
|
Thank you, Mayor Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:31:20
|
|
|
I have no questions. Thank you. Thank you, Supervisor Christensen. Thank you. Thank you, Mayor. No questions. Good job as usual.
|
00:31:22
|
|
|
Mayor, thank you so much for putting that together. Thank you to all the department heads and elected to make it possible to
|
00:31:26
|
|
|
present.
|
00:31:30
|
|
|
Data that.
|
00:31:34
|
|
|
Shows everybody's doing really well. Sure does. So thank you so much.
|
00:31:36
|
|
|
OK, we'll get on to #3 public hearings.
|
00:31:41
|
|
|
And we'll start with three AM information, discussion, action.
|
00:31:45
|
|
|
To consider a liquor license application counting number L-23-12.
|
00:31:50
|
|
|
Submitted by Monica Goodwin for the transfer of the Series 6 BAR license.
|
00:31:57
|
|
|
With an interim permit to operate at the Weekender.
|
00:32:02
|
|
|
At 1:20 rolls drive.
|
00:32:06
|
|
|
Located in Strawberry and issued a recommendation to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses.
|
00:32:09
|
|
|
And control whether the license should be granted.
|
00:32:15
|
|
|
Sam, you ready for this?
|
00:32:18
|
|
|
Just one second, I wanted to confirm something here really quick.
|
00:32:29
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:32:33
|
|
|
OK, as stated, this is a Series 12 restaurant liquor license application for the weekend or located in Strawberry.
|
00:32:42
|
|
|
The county does have an internal review process whereby the treasurer reviews the application and ensures that the applicant is
|
00:32:48
|
|
|
current on property tax payments for all properties owned in Hewitt County.
|
00:32:53
|
|
|
The health department and the building permitting department both review the application. To date, there have been issues reported
|
00:32:59
|
|
|
for the Weekender by the building permitting department relevant to that area of review, to which I'll ask Randy Plummer to
|
00:33:04
|
|
|
explain.
|
00:33:08
|
|
|
He come on up.
|
00:33:14
|
|
|
The Weekender.
|
00:33:17
|
|
|
We.
|
00:33:18
|
|
|
Good morning, Chairman. So the issue that we found on this one is.
|
00:33:20
|
|
|
It is the wrong address. This address is going to 105.
|
00:33:25
|
|
|
I believe Paul or.
|
00:33:31
|
|
|
Raleigh just 120 Rolls Drive and their structure is 7.
|
00:33:33
|
|
|
Something.
|
00:33:39
|
|
|
I can't remember the exact number but the.
|
00:33:40
|
|
|
They have had it at that Weekender and I think that number has been used in the past.
|
00:33:43
|
|
|
But during our review we saw that it had the wrong address.
|
00:33:49
|
|
|
The I believe the applicant stated that they called.
|
00:33:53
|
|
|
Liquor board.
|
00:33:58
|
|
|
It was. That was the number of heck that was out there when.
|
00:34:00
|
|
|
It first started.
|
00:34:02
|
|
|
But it's the wrong address, so we denied it on our part.
|
00:34:04
|
|
|
Wrong structure so.
|
00:34:09
|
|
|
They don't even own the property that when we did our research for that number.
|
00:34:11
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:34:17
|
|
|
Ready for questions? Certainly, Supervisor Humphrey.
|
00:34:19
|
|
|
Yeah, well.
|
00:34:24
|
|
|
Yeah, my question is, is the wrong address. Is the wrong address.
|
00:34:24
|
|
|
And, you know, applying for one in one place and having it at another. Great difficulties I would, I would think.
|
00:34:29
|
|
|
And if we passed it on to the.
|
00:34:36
|
|
|
State liquor board of the wrong address. I I don't know that I could support that.
|
00:34:39
|
|
|
Myself so.
|
00:34:45
|
|
|
No further questions, Supervisor Chris.
|
00:34:47
|
|
|
So one of the, if you Google search the 120 rolls versus the 7000 whatever and we did that this morning with Samantha, they're
|
00:34:49
|
|
|
like virtually the same spot.
|
00:34:55
|
|
|
Or are they not?
|
00:35:00
|
|
|
When I googled them with staff, we found an empty field and the structure.
|
00:35:02
|
|
|
Well, so we went on their Facebook page. We did the Google.
|
00:35:07
|
|
|
So the 1:05 or the 1/20 shows an empty field.
|
00:35:11
|
|
|
And then the seven.
|
00:35:15
|
|
|
I'm sorry, I don't know, but we went through their their Facebook page and Google Earth and it shows the actual building.
|
00:35:18
|
|
|
So they're kind of adjacent, are they? Even though the numbers are way far right, They they yes. And that street is not big. It's
|
00:35:27
|
|
|
not huge.
|
00:35:30
|
|
|
It could be, but the show two different owners.
|
00:35:34
|
|
|
So my only question would be.
|
00:35:37
|
|
|
What kind of legal jeopardy does that put us in if we?
|
00:35:39
|
|
|
Go ahead and pass this without that correction being made.
|
00:35:42
|
|
|
Chairman A member supervisors.
|
00:35:48
|
|
|
So just to so that the board understands, you are not passing anything, you're not approving the liquor license. What you're doing
|
00:35:49
|
|
|
is you're submitting a recommendation over to the liquor board who then makes the determination themselves. So your
|
00:35:54
|
|
|
recommendation?
|
00:35:59
|
|
|
Typically looks like something.
|
00:36:05
|
|
|
Yes, we would go ahead and submit a recommendation for the liquor board to approve this.
|
00:36:07
|
|
|
Here what you could do is.
|
00:36:13
|
|
|
So that that recommendation, but indicate that it's the wrong address.
|
00:36:15
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:36:20
|
|
|
Alright, that's.
|
00:36:21
|
|
|
Very helpful. Thank you. That's all I have.
|
00:36:23
|
|
|
So, Jessica, I mean, if if it's just a matter of wrong address, isn't that an easy fix correction?
|
00:36:26
|
|
|
If they have, I I'm not sure what the documentation looks like, but I'm assuming that the applicant is submitting A fiscal address
|
00:36:35
|
|
|
there or a physical address.
|
00:36:40
|
|
|
And you would have to clarify that what's pulling up on our books is something different.
|
00:36:46
|
|
|
So we may have a chance here in just a minute to ask that question. I'm just I guess I'm curious if if the owner just messed up on
|
00:36:52
|
|
|
the address and got the.
|
00:36:56
|
|
|
Whatever wrong, Herman is a owner there and I think in person.
|
00:37:01
|
|
|
She's there, yeah. I think she's at the podium when patient, so when I opened it up for.
|
00:37:06
|
|
|
I'm here.
|
00:37:10
|
|
|
Sure. OK. When you open up for public hearing, she can. Yeah. If you'll just hang on real tight, I'll have you.
|
00:37:11
|
|
|
Talk about here in a minute. I just. I just.
|
00:37:18
|
|
|
I'm just sitting here thinking if it's.
|
00:37:21
|
|
|
It's not at this address. It should be this one. It should be an easy fix I guess, my simple way. And that was kind of what staff
|
00:37:23
|
|
|
thought too, but.
|
00:37:27
|
|
|
Like said, we didn't want to approve something that had the wrong address. No, I'm. I'm glad you brought to our attention. I mean,
|
00:37:32
|
|
|
yeah, absolutely so.
|
00:37:35
|
|
|
You guys have anything else you want to come in or see?
|
00:37:40
|
|
|
I'm good, thank you. The only thing that I was concerned about because I have no objection to the to.
|
00:37:43
|
|
|
Approving.
|
00:37:48
|
|
|
But the uh that there would be no legal consequence.
|
00:37:49
|
|
|
Because it was posted at 1:20, but the actual address is not not actually right there, but.
|
00:37:54
|
|
|
I'm hearing from Jessica that we could make a motion that clarifies that in the motion.
|
00:38:02
|
|
|
I think Jerry District has got more to add. Yes, chairman, members, supervisors.
|
00:38:09
|
|
|
It's quite interesting. So there's no statutory authority.
|
00:38:13
|
|
|
Giving the board the ability to submit this recommendation to the Liquor Licensing Control Board. However, they are asking the
|
00:38:17
|
|
|
county for their input.
|
00:38:21
|
|
|
OK. I think we've been down this road in the past and the weekenders been there. I don't want to leave any.
|
00:38:26
|
|
|
Misconstrued that that that structure is fine. It's just some strong address, OK?
|
00:38:34
|
|
|
Ohh, are we good for you guys?
|
00:38:41
|
|
|
Alright, so at this time I'll open it up for public.
|
00:38:44
|
|
|
Comments and we'll start with you there and.
|
00:38:48
|
|
|
And pace and just let us know your name and.
|
00:38:50
|
|
|
Address all that.
|
00:38:53
|
|
|
Monica.
|
00:38:55
|
|
|
And.
|
00:38:57
|
|
|
Finish the reason why they've never redone it.
|
00:39:04
|
|
|
And because whoever did it back in the past.
|
00:39:07
|
|
|
Did that with the liquor board and with the liquor board. If you change, if you're just not transferring, if you change
|
00:39:10
|
|
|
everything, you have to go, You have to go through the whole process of reapplying and even just to transfer.
|
00:39:17
|
|
|
It takes.
|
00:39:24
|
|
|
Numerous months to do that, but to reapply.
|
00:39:25
|
|
|
For the address.
|
00:39:30
|
|
|
Takes a lot longer and we're just trying to get.
|
00:39:31
|
|
|
Everything kind of moving and everything and the names that it's supposed to be in.
|
00:39:35
|
|
|
That that address has been recognized through.
|
00:39:40
|
|
|
Google. It's recognized by the liquor board. It's recognized by Loopnet.
|
00:39:43
|
|
|
It is a different address, but they do they are the same.
|
00:39:48
|
|
|
For the Weekender.
|
00:39:53
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:39:55
|
|
|
Supervisor Humphrey, you have any questions for her?
|
00:39:58
|
|
|
Yeah, I guess I do so. So being that's been licensed under the wrong address.
|
00:40:03
|
|
|
We want to keep it licensed under the wrong address.
|
00:40:08
|
|
|
Is that is that what I'm hearing?
|
00:40:13
|
|
|
To make it to make it simpler.
|
00:40:15
|
|
|
Yeah, so the the is is the person that that.
|
00:40:17
|
|
|
Is the owner of this address aware?
|
00:40:21
|
|
|
And and and and and OK with the fact that he's got a liquor license on his property. That's not his property or his liquor
|
00:40:24
|
|
|
license.
|
00:40:28
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:40:33
|
|
|
OK. No more question. Welcome to North Arizona Supervisor Christensen. Yeah, thank you. I think I understand the predicament,
|
00:40:37
|
|
|
Monica.
|
00:40:42
|
|
|
So.
|
00:40:47
|
|
|
I really have no questions.
|
00:40:50
|
|
|
I really don't know what to ask at this point in time.
|
00:40:52
|
|
|
You know I I.
|
00:40:56
|
|
|
So how long is the weekend or been there? Monica, how long has this been going on?
|
00:40:59
|
|
|
A bear prior to that.
|
00:41:14
|
|
|
So we're talking back to.
|
00:41:15
|
|
|
I think this is been at least.
|
00:41:18
|
|
|
1015 years, I think. Maybe even longer than that, I don't know. And this, this chairman that goes way back. It used to be the
|
00:41:21
|
|
|
black bear and I've eaten there 40 years ago. I've eaten there, so.
|
00:41:26
|
|
|
So I guess you know what? I what I'm hearing is, is part of this, this deal is our fault as well. I see we missed it in the past.
|
00:41:32
|
|
|
No, no, no, not.
|
00:41:36
|
|
|
We we missed. We missed. We missed in the hat dress there on this. I see. Go ahead, Jessica.
|
00:41:40
|
|
|
The liquor board did.
|
00:41:47
|
|
|
Since we're not statutorily required to do whatever.
|
00:41:49
|
|
|
You're giving me a way out, aren't you, Jessica?
|
00:41:54
|
|
|
Got it. I got it.
|
00:41:57
|
|
|
Amazing. OK.
|
00:42:00
|
|
|
Is there anybody here in Globe have anything to say about anybody else impatient want to talk on it?
|
00:42:03
|
|
|
No one else.
|
00:42:10
|
|
|
Monica, thank you.
|
00:42:14
|
|
|
Thank you. And Cassie, is there anything on YouTube? I didn't think so.
|
00:42:16
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:42:21
|
|
|
So with that, I'll close the public public hearing and entertain a motion.
|
00:42:21
|
|
|
Mr. Chairman, I will recommend I will move to recommend that the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control.
|
00:42:26
|
|
|
Approved the liquor license application submitted by Monica Godwin or The Weekender, which is located on Walls Drive in
|
00:42:33
|
|
|
Strawberry.
|
00:42:38
|
|
|
Also, I can tell Mr. Chair.
|
00:42:45
|
|
|
Having a motion and second all in favor, do so by saying aye, aye.
|
00:42:48
|
|
|
Aye.
|
00:42:52
|
|
|
Motion passes.
|
00:42:53
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:42:57
|
|
|
Yeah, I did.
|
00:43:00
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:43:01
|
|
|
I did. Are you sleep?
|
00:43:02
|
|
|
OK, it's awful quiet over there.
|
00:43:04
|
|
|
All right, on to 3B Information, discussion Action to consider a liquor license applicant application.
|
00:43:07
|
|
|
Counting number L-23-13 submitted by Phoenix.
|
00:43:13
|
|
|
Starsky.
|
00:43:18
|
|
|
For a new Series 4 wholesaler license at Marlow Wines.
|
00:43:19
|
|
|
9634 W Fossil Creek Rd.
|
00:43:25
|
|
|
Located in Strawberry and issued a recommendation to the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses.
|
00:43:28
|
|
|
And control where the license should be granted Sam.
|
00:43:34
|
|
|
Thank you, Chairman Ask stated. This is a Series 4 wholesaler liquor license application for Marlow Wines located in Strawberry.
|
00:43:39
|
|
|
The county does have an internal review process whereby the treasurer reviews the application and ensure the applicant is current
|
00:43:47
|
|
|
and property tax payments for all properties owned in.
|
00:43:51
|
|
|
New accounting.
|
00:43:56
|
|
|
The health department and building permitting department both review the application. To date, there have been issues reported
|
00:43:57
|
|
|
from Marla Wines both by the health department and the building permitting department relevant to their area of review, which I
|
00:44:02
|
|
|
asked that, Randy Plummer and Michael O'Driscoll explained.
|
00:44:07
|
|
|
Mona Penny.
|
00:44:14
|
|
|
Normally these are so easy.
|
00:44:16
|
|
|
So this one is in the middle of the neighborhood which is zoned R1.
|
00:44:19
|
|
|
And there are deed restrictions that say no businesses are allowed on this property.
|
00:44:24
|
|
|
Um, so during our review process?
|
00:44:29
|
|
|
With the home business like this.
|
00:44:32
|
|
|
And the serious forest allows for taste testing. And we've kind of.
|
00:44:35
|
|
|
Whether they do that or not, that is allowed under that series 4.
|
00:44:39
|
|
|
And that's not what's supposed to be going on in this neighborhood.
|
00:44:44
|
|
|
As the zoning.
|
00:44:49
|
|
|
And again, there were. We looked at options for them to move forward.
|
00:44:50
|
|
|
There are deed restrictions and say no businesses.
|
00:44:55
|
|
|
And the structure of the garage does not meet the requirements. This would be an S2.
|
00:44:58
|
|
|
Change in a garage is normally a you.
|
00:45:04
|
|
|
So there would be structural or not structural change, but there have to be.
|
00:45:07
|
|
|
Some reading.
|
00:45:11
|
|
|
Changes that could occur.
|
00:45:13
|
|
|
Or maybe be needed to to require depends on the.
|
00:45:15
|
|
|
Alcohol limit on a wines and wines can be.
|
00:45:19
|
|
|
Quite high in 10, some are fairly low so.
|
00:45:23
|
|
|
It would go into an S2 requirement as far as the building code would require.
|
00:45:26
|
|
|
OK, and did Michael did lesson from the health department?
|
00:45:32
|
|
|
Thank you, Chairman. Members of the Board and currently the Health department can't sign off on this liquor license because.
|
00:45:38
|
|
|
It's in a residential property.
|
00:45:45
|
|
|
And the board, or planning and zoning, hasn't voted.
|
00:45:47
|
|
|
To allow that type of business.
|
00:45:51
|
|
|
In a residential property.
|
00:45:53
|
|
|
But if that does come to fruition?
|
00:45:55
|
|
|
Then they would have to adhere to the FDA 2017 food code construction guidelines.
|
00:45:58
|
|
|
For any type of um.
|
00:46:04
|
|
|
Food product and the state health department does define a food product as a winery, brewery or distillery.
|
00:46:07
|
|
|
So that's where the health department stands right now.
|
00:46:14
|
|
|
OK. Thank you, Michael. Supervisor Humphrey questions, comments.
|
00:46:17
|
|
|
I don't have any question and my comments are is the it's you know the deed restrictions are against it.
|
00:46:24
|
|
|
Of buildings not suitable for commercial.
|
00:46:30
|
|
|
Health department doesn't support it.
|
00:46:33
|
|
|
That's my only comment.
|
00:46:35
|
|
|
Supervisor Christiansen, thank you. Thank you, Michael and Randy. So this is a, this is a interesting one.
|
00:46:37
|
|
|
Because.
|
00:46:45
|
|
|
We theoretically could approve.
|
00:46:46
|
|
|
The liquor license.
|
00:46:48
|
|
|
Knowing that the consequence of ever using that is extremely unlikely.
|
00:46:50
|
|
|
If you understand my comment, so we could approve the license, but he would not be able to use it because he's in a residential
|
00:46:57
|
|
|
area. He'd restrictions he'd have to apply for a CU P.
|
00:47:03
|
|
|
To do it.
|
00:47:08
|
|
|
Is that correct? Correct, Sir. And even if the liquor Commission in of Arizona?
|
00:47:09
|
|
|
Issues of liquor license they still would not be able to use their home until they go through the process of going through
|
00:47:15
|
|
|
planning and zoning, getting the deed restrictions lifted.
|
00:47:20
|
|
|
As well as dealing with the health department, so normally.
|
00:47:26
|
|
|
Would you do that first before you did this or correct anyway? It just seems out of order to me.
|
00:47:30
|
|
|
And even though I I encourage business and everything, it seems to be the wrong location.
|
00:47:38
|
|
|
For this type of business to me.
|
00:47:43
|
|
|
I don't know that the neighbors have had any input on this. They they.
|
00:47:46
|
|
|
Wouldn't have because there's been no CP applied for.
|
00:47:50
|
|
|
Correct, Sir. So part of the setup process is to reach out to the.
|
00:47:54
|
|
|
Neighboring properties within 300 feet.
|
00:47:59
|
|
|
Of this particular property and get their feedback whether they are for this or against this.
|
00:48:02
|
|
|
OK. And then we bring it in front of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
|
00:48:08
|
|
|
And after the Planning and Zoning Commission, we bring it in front of the board.
|
00:48:12
|
|
|
OK. I think I understand. Thank you. You've got your.
|
00:48:17
|
|
|
I don't think I have any questions or not I I all I, I well I would have one I guess is it coming up in front of planning and
|
00:48:21
|
|
|
zoning sometime in the future Randy or do you know?
|
00:48:26
|
|
|
Alright.
|
00:48:31
|
|
|
No application for CP is applied for at this. OK.
|
00:48:32
|
|
|
Alright, thanks guys.
|
00:48:36
|
|
|
With that, I'll open up to public hearing and paste in. I believe we have one. Go ahead and state your name and.
|
00:48:37
|
|
|
Where you're from and we'll go from there.
|
00:48:45
|
|
|
Hey, my name is Felix Depsky. I'm the owner of Mala Wines and I'm also the the resident of that spoken resident.
|
00:48:47
|
|
|
So we are a wine importer mainly.
|
00:48:55
|
|
|
And I am applying for a liquor license in order to sell wine to retailers.
|
00:48:58
|
|
|
How we do it? I I've never intended to do any kind of business out of my house.
|
00:49:03
|
|
|
The only reason why we did that is because of the first shipment that we received which was 2 pallets of wine which is around 800
|
00:49:08
|
|
|
bottles which I have currently stored in my garage and while we are resetting up our business operations.
|
00:49:15
|
|
|
But we have done so far we have.
|
00:49:23
|
|
|
Done by attempting said premises and we all are such sales are on premise so we go to retailers directly and then sample mine and
|
00:49:25
|
|
|
it said like if they would.
|
00:49:29
|
|
|
Place an order.
|
00:49:35
|
|
|
And we had lots of interest. So I'm already preparing my next shipment of wine, which is going to be way larger, which I can no
|
00:49:36
|
|
|
longer possibly store at my own property. So I'm already having an agreement with city storage in placement. They have a climate
|
00:49:41
|
|
|
controlled warehouse.
|
00:49:46
|
|
|
And this is the place where we're going to store all our merchandise.
|
00:49:52
|
|
|
So I never intend to do any kind of business at my property.
|
00:49:55
|
|
|
I I went to the I looked, talked to the zoning department and they said.
|
00:49:59
|
|
|
I would Ohh no actually I talked to Nicholas and they said if I wanna.
|
00:50:04
|
|
|
Change my whole address. I would have to reapply for the entire license, withdraw my current license, and that would probably
|
00:50:08
|
|
|
throw me back three to four months.
|
00:50:11
|
|
|
And.
|
00:50:16
|
|
|
So what I'm here to make my case that we as model wines are solely storing our first treatment at at my.
|
00:50:17
|
|
|
Property right now, but I'm already moving all my merchandise over to city storage and my subsequent shipping will also be stored
|
00:50:24
|
|
|
there. And it's a commercial area. It's way easier to to go in and out and I don't have to deal with anything at my own home.
|
00:50:30
|
|
|
The only reason why we did it at my home was to get started. You know, I didn't. I didn't know how the wine is going to.
|
00:50:37
|
|
|
Performance. A lot of people love it. So we are already preparing our next shipment and I didn't want to.
|
00:50:43
|
|
|
Pay for a warehouse that I wasn't using for many months, but now everything seems to be going on and we're already moving to a
|
00:50:48
|
|
|
warehouse, so that's my current situation here right now.
|
00:50:53
|
|
|
All right, Felix, thank you. Supervisor Humphrey, you have questions for Felix.
|
00:51:00
|
|
|
Just one.
|
00:51:07
|
|
|
So the the.
|
00:51:08
|
|
|
You're applied for liquor license for your home, correct?
|
00:51:09
|
|
|
I while I applied for medical license, I applied for my home because I I wasn't really aware that my business had my property is
|
00:51:14
|
|
|
business restricted.
|
00:51:19
|
|
|
And I just needed to have an address to apply for the Nikolai license. You know, because I didn't have a commercial address yet, I
|
00:51:24
|
|
|
didn't want to rent a warehouse.
|
00:51:29
|
|
|
For many months without having anything in there, so I thought might as well just use my own address.
|
00:51:33
|
|
|
Um.
|
00:51:39
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
00:51:40
|
|
|
But I never intended to do business out of my home. I never intend to do wine tastings at my home, and my wife would kill me if I
|
00:51:41
|
|
|
would do that. But I I I literally have it to store my first pallet there, and they are already moving out to a storage.
|
00:51:48
|
|
|
If, if I may ask, if you're not gonna do any business at your home and you're you're gonna move your storage to another place in
|
00:51:56
|
|
|
town?
|
00:52:01
|
|
|
Where are you going to do your business with the license that you're applying for?
|
00:52:06
|
|
|
Our business is solely on premise, so I go to so it will be at your home.
|
00:52:11
|
|
|
No, no, on premise at the at the retailers premise. So I go to the valley, I go to wine bars, I go to restaurants, I go there by
|
00:52:17
|
|
|
myself person to person and then I'll sample the wine and if they like it, they put an order in and then I personally delivered
|
00:52:23
|
|
|
the wine. So literally it's just sitting in a storage, I go into the storage, take the cap the the boxes out and drive to the
|
00:52:29
|
|
|
retailer.
|
00:52:35
|
|
|
OK. No, no further questions, Mr. Chair.
|
00:52:44
|
|
|
Other than I, I've been to the.
|
00:52:49
|
|
|
Liquor board before to try to go against some of the like because if you get a license, you get the license.
|
00:52:52
|
|
|
And whatever comes with the license, it doesn't specify storage, it doesn't specify anything.
|
00:52:59
|
|
|
And so I've been to Arizona, the liquor board, to try to put restrictions on a license for certain things.
|
00:53:05
|
|
|
And and it was a real difficult deal. Hmm. And so in in in this case.
|
00:53:12
|
|
|
I feel it would be difficult.
|
00:53:21
|
|
|
Umm.
|
00:53:23
|
|
|
Or.
|
00:53:25
|
|
|
For a license for a residential area.
|
00:53:27
|
|
|
That that's against the deed restriction.
|
00:53:30
|
|
|
I'll get to you in a minute, James. Go ahead, Steve.
|
00:53:34
|
|
|
Mr. Stepanski, thank you for the information sounds like you're having.
|
00:53:38
|
|
|
A diminishing need to have it.
|
00:53:44
|
|
|
At your home.
|
00:53:47
|
|
|
But my question really is not to you, it's to either Randy or.
|
00:53:49
|
|
|
Umm.
|
00:53:54
|
|
|
Michael.
|
00:53:56
|
|
|
Is Mr. Stepanski.
|
00:53:58
|
|
|
Allowed right now with no changes of.
|
00:54:00
|
|
|
Or in conditions from community development to simply store wine in his garage.
|
00:54:04
|
|
|
And then eventually move it to another location. Is that allowed?
|
00:54:12
|
|
|
It is not allowed to have a business operation.
|
00:54:25
|
|
|
At his current address.
|
00:54:29
|
|
|
It is garage.
|
00:54:32
|
|
|
Now.
|
00:54:33
|
|
|
I'll leave it at that. Is it considered a business?
|
00:54:36
|
|
|
To have.
|
00:54:40
|
|
|
A pass through his garage on the product.
|
00:54:42
|
|
|
Would I come to someone's house and say if they have a bottle of wine? If that's a business, no. But they have submitted for the
|
00:54:46
|
|
|
liquor license.
|
00:54:50
|
|
|
And and put this down as the business address.
|
00:54:54
|
|
|
So we would consider this a a business.
|
00:54:57
|
|
|
That he has stated that he is running.
|
00:55:01
|
|
|
You was taking the wine and and doing his taste testing and trying to sell it.
|
00:55:03
|
|
|
This is a business.
|
00:55:08
|
|
|
Currently.
|
00:55:10
|
|
|
Yeah, he reapplies for a liquor license at another.
|
00:55:11
|
|
|
Location.
|
00:55:14
|
|
|
That would allow for it, but it has some wine in his garage.
|
00:55:15
|
|
|
Ohh is he in violation?
|
00:55:20
|
|
|
Of the code.
|
00:55:22
|
|
|
Currently the.
|
00:55:24
|
|
|
He just admitted that he has one in his garage right now.
|
00:55:26
|
|
|
So is that a vague area?
|
00:55:31
|
|
|
Well.
|
00:55:34
|
|
|
He could turn around and you know currently what has stated that his violation.
|
00:55:36
|
|
|
He says he is running the business and he is taking the first shipment and it started in in his garage.
|
00:55:42
|
|
|
So that is a violation of his deed restrictions.
|
00:55:48
|
|
|
And of the zoning.
|
00:55:51
|
|
|
Again when I come out and if you had a pile of wine in your garage that you were consuming.
|
00:55:54
|
|
|
Is that a violation? No.
|
00:55:59
|
|
|
But.
|
00:56:01
|
|
|
Per the applicant and trying to get a liquor license for that address.
|
00:56:02
|
|
|
Yes, that is a violation.
|
00:56:07
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:56:09
|
|
|
I just wanted to be clear on that. So I think Mr. Stefanski's looking maybe for some direction and that would be to continue
|
00:56:11
|
|
|
seeking a different location and he may need to apply for another location.
|
00:56:17
|
|
|
Due to the fact that it makes it very difficult for us.
|
00:56:24
|
|
|
To approve something that's not going to work.
|
00:56:28
|
|
|
Once he applies for a CU P.
|
00:56:33
|
|
|
Right. And it sounds like he's found another warehouse.
|
00:56:35
|
|
|
Right. That may be totally compliant. It's impatient. So really probably is not us.
|
00:56:39
|
|
|
At that moment, then, it would be the town of Patient.
|
00:56:44
|
|
|
They would go out and inspect to make sure that that.
|
00:56:46
|
|
|
Businesses allowed there.
|
00:56:50
|
|
|
Umm.
|
00:56:52
|
|
|
So if that address was changed to there.
|
00:56:53
|
|
|
I don't believe it would even be in front of you. Well, and I know of another person's good friend that was in the wine wholesale
|
00:56:56
|
|
|
business.
|
00:57:00
|
|
|
Lived in Elk Ridge. OK in Payson.
|
00:57:05
|
|
|
Ohh and could not operate.
|
00:57:10
|
|
|
Her business to her home, even though it was simply storage.
|
00:57:12
|
|
|
So that's why I'm asking that specific question and again there there's.
|
00:57:17
|
|
|
Alcohol content in wines.
|
00:57:23
|
|
|
I went through this several times. Is is a pretty packed big difference.
|
00:57:26
|
|
|
And 15% is the.
|
00:57:30
|
|
|
Kind of the threshold number.
|
00:57:32
|
|
|
And if you're under 15%, which a lot of wines are, but there's a lot of wines that are over that, that requires a whole nother
|
00:57:34
|
|
|
risk level as far as building goes.
|
00:57:39
|
|
|
OK.
|
00:57:44
|
|
|
Thank you, Randy.
|
00:57:45
|
|
|
James is covering something you wanna say. Michael, I just I had a question that first comments are made.
|
00:57:47
|
|
|
Hi, Mr. Stefansky, that he had held.
|
00:57:55
|
|
|
Wine tasting at his home or at his business location that he's at my home. I have. I had wine tastings.
|
00:58:00
|
|
|
At the retailers premise, so I'm going to retailers.
|
00:58:07
|
|
|
And I'm just simply sampling. I haven't sold a single bottle of wine. You know, I'm not allowed to sell any wine. I'm I'm, I have
|
00:58:11
|
|
|
a federal permit, a federal permit from the TTB which allows me to import.
|
00:58:17
|
|
|
And distribute wine.
|
00:58:23
|
|
|
And I'm allowed to hold a samplings and solicit orders.
|
00:58:24
|
|
|
And that's all we have done, but never at our own premise. We always went to the restaurants and through the wine bar.
|
00:58:30
|
|
|
Good, James.
|
00:58:37
|
|
|
I think he gets down to the fact that it's just not his own. It's not in the ordinance to do this and I think.
|
00:58:40
|
|
|
Mr.
|
00:58:45
|
|
|
Felix, there's gonna.
|
00:58:47
|
|
|
And don't need to reapply.
|
00:58:48
|
|
|
For sounds to me.
|
00:58:50
|
|
|
Jessica There's no other way around that, is there? I mean.
|
00:58:52
|
|
|
Chairman, Member supervisors. I'm not sure if it would be helpful for him.
|
00:58:57
|
|
|
To have you guys submit a recommendation for approval for the other address.
|
00:59:01
|
|
|
And.
|
00:59:06
|
|
|
Doesn't seem like it would be sufficient for the liquor board, because they do require applicants to start the whole process over
|
00:59:08
|
|
|
once there's a change of address.
|
00:59:12
|
|
|
Yeah, and.
|
00:59:18
|
|
|
But put me back probably four or five months of time.
|
00:59:19
|
|
|
Yeah, and that's unfortunate. I I think it's just that our hands are gonna be tight on this one, but let's see where it goes.
|
00:59:24
|
|
|
Is anybody else in pacing that wants to speak of this?
|
00:59:30
|
|
|
No.
|
00:59:35
|
|
|
No one in love. No one on YouTube. I'll close the public hearing.
|
00:59:37
|
|
|
And.
|
00:59:42
|
|
|
You too ready?
|
00:59:44
|
|
|
And then a motion.
|
00:59:47
|
|
|
Mr. I moved to not recommend that the Arizona Department of Liquor Licensing Control approved.
|
00:59:49
|
|
|
The liquor license application submitted by Monica Goodwin.
|
00:59:55
|
|
|
For the weekend.
|
01:00:00
|
|
|
No, no, no. Wrong one. OK. I'm sorry. Yeah, wrong. Yeah. OK. I hang on.
|
01:00:02
|
|
|
Are you wanting to submit a recommendation to the liquor board that you want them to not approve it? Or are you wanting to not
|
01:00:08
|
|
|
submit a recommendation at all?
|
01:00:12
|
|
|
Mr. Chair, I moved to not make a recommendation at all.

|
01:02:47
|
|
|
than 10 years and we're trying to continue to modernize our fleet and this is an effort to do that.
|
01:02:52
|
|
|
The order window has opened and recently and we would like to use the same contract to purchase the six six Expeditions.
|
01:02:59
|
|
|
The cost for the six new expeditions as specified and outfitted.
|
01:03:06
|
|
|
Is $528,891.36.
|
01:03:10
|
|
|
The source of funding is 500,000 from ARPA and the remainder from General Fund.

01:03:20
|
|
|
Supervisor Humphrey, I have no questions. Mr. Supervisor Christensen, thank you, Homero, No questions.
|
01:03:25
|
|
|
You know, when I read this agenda item I I thought that's kind of think back in the past I thought we'd already approved this as
|
01:03:32
|
|
|
soon as the windows was open to go ahead and do it because that's been the hold up on a lot of our fleet.
|
01:03:38
|
|
|
It's just the process of the opportunity to to.
|
01:03:44
|
|
|
Place orders we had already and we wasted no time bringing it to you. And perhaps that may have been the case. I don't, I don't
|
01:03:47
|
|
|
know exactly, but we're here, I think in a very prompt action.
|
01:03:52
|
|
|
Yeah. OK. Well, thanks for updating us on this and we'll vote on it again if need be, so that.
|
01:03:58
|
|
|
James, you're good.
|
01:04:05
|
|
|
And entertain a motion as long as this isn't times 2.
|
01:04:08
|
|
|
Oh my God, you you can put that in your motion.
|
01:04:12

|
Chris, Chairman. I'll just say that there was a, it was a approved for 500,000. OK, and this is.
|
01:04:17
|
|
|
They the actual bids came in $28,000 more and so this is because it's 28,000 more to get that approval, OK.
|
01:04:23
|
|
|
So I just wanted to be sure it wasn't friends too. Mr. Chair. I move to approve the youth.

Undersea Information Discussion Action to Authorize Advertisement of Invitation for bids number 071023.
|
01:05:02
|
|
|
The Gazella Roadway improvement project on. Good morning, Good morning, Mr. Chairman, board members.
|
01:05:10
|
|
|
This is a request to advertise an invitation for bids number 071023.
|
01:05:16
|
|
|
Garcia Rd. Roadway Improvements Project.
|
01:05:24
|
|
|
A little bit of background. The proposed work is on Garcinia Road.
|
01:05:28
|
|
|
For approximately 1.7 miles.
|
01:05:33
|
|
|
From the roadway high point to the Tunnel Creek.
|
01:05:36
|
|
|
Shores intersection.
|
01:05:40
|
|
|
The improvements consist of milling the existing chip seal.
|
01:05:42
|
|
|
Compacting the milled material in place.
|
01:05:46
|
|
|
And placing a double chip seal.
|
01:05:50
|
|
|
With a fog coat on top of the compacted material.
|
01:05:53
|
|
|
Additional work includes widening 3 curves.
|
01:05:58
|
|
|
To improve visibility, visibility, and drivability.
|
01:06:01
|
|
|
And then new striping will also be placed on the chip seal.
|
01:06:05
|
|
|
What's an engineering and survey?
|
01:06:10
|
|
|
Have prepared plans, specifications and a project estimate.
|
01:06:12
|
|
|
The project is budgeted to be funded from the Half Cent Transportation Excise Fund.
|
01:06:17
|
|
|
So Garcia Rd. is A2 lane roadway.
|
01:06:25
|
|
|
With it had an average annual daily traffic of 596 vehicles and that was in 2022.
|
01:06:28
|
|
|
And it's classified as a major collector.
|
01:06:35
|
|
|
It provides access to the communities of Gisela.
|
01:06:38
|
|
|
And the town on National Forest.
|
01:06:43
|
|
|
This section of roadway has deteriorated.
|
01:06:46
|
|
|
And shows signs of cracking, rutting, potholes.
|
01:06:50
|
|
|
And other surface defects.
|
01:06:54
|
|
|
The primary objective of the project is to.
|
01:06:57
|
|
|
Improve the driving surface and improve.
|
01:07:01
|
|
|
Driving ability.
|
01:07:03
|
|
|
Of the three curves by widening them.
|
01:07:05
|
|
|
On both the inside and outside of the curves.
|
01:07:08
|
|
|
In conclusion, the project will improve drivability on this section of Garcia Rd.
|
01:07:10
|
|
|
By widening those 3 curves and then milling.
|
01:07:17
|
|
|
And doing a new double chip seal.
|
01:07:20
|
|
|
On top of the old material.
|
01:07:22
|
|
|
The Public Works Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the advertisement for invitation for bids.
|
01:07:27
|
|
|
071023
|
01:07:34
|
|
|
for the Guy Sea Level Rd. Roadway Improvement Project.
|
01:07:37
|
|
|
I'll be happy to answer any questions. Thank you, Tom. Supervisor Humphrey.
|
01:07:41
|
|
|
I have no questions other than thank you very much for getting this up.
|
01:07:45
|
|
|
Because I I believe it was supposed to be done about a year or so ago and so I I'm, I'm.
|
01:07:50
|
|
|
I'm grateful that you have.
|
01:07:56
|
|
|
Found it and found the funding.
|
01:07:58
|
|
|
And I also appreciate the fact that you're widening some of those curves.
|
01:08:01
|
|
|
Because on the first part going in.
|
01:08:04
|
|
|
With a with a long gooseneck trailer, you can't make some of those turns without taking up the complete Rd. So nothing other than
|
01:08:07
|
|
|
thank you very much.
|
01:08:11
|
|
|
Supervisor efficiency. Thank you, Chairman. Thank you, Tom. Yeah, we need to keep our roads maintained. Looks like a good project.
|
01:08:17
|
|
|
I remember when all this was dirt, so.
|
01:08:22
|
|
|
That was bad.
|
01:08:27
|
|
|
So thanks. Thank you.
|
01:08:28
|
|
|
Tom, how, how long will this be out for bids? It'll be out there about 30 days, about 30 days and so.
|
01:08:31
|
|
|
So we will be able to get to work on this this year.
|
01:08:40
|
|
|
Yes, Sir. Our our goal is to finish it this year right on. Thank you.
|
01:08:43
|
|
|
So with that again motion, Mr. Chair moved to authorize the advertisement of invitation for bid number 071023.
|
01:08:48
|
|
|
Mr. Chair, I will second that having a motion in a second. All in favor, do so by saying aye, aye, aye, aye. Motion carries. Thank
|
01:08:58
|
|
|
you, Tom.
|
01:09:02
|
|
|
On to the information discussion Action to approve Amendment #1.
|
01:09:06
|
|
|
To contract number 051122 Dash Bulk, Fuel and Lubricant with Synergy Petroleum LLC to extend the term of the contract for one
|
01:09:11
|
|
|
additional year.
|
01:09:18
|
|
|
From July 19th 23 to July 18th 24.
|
01:09:25
|
|
|
For the purchase of bulk fuel and lubricants for a not to exceed the amount of 1,200,000.
|
01:09:29
|
|
|
Hotmail.
|
01:09:36
|
|
|
Thank you.
|
01:09:38
|
|
|
Back in July of 22nd of 2022, the board approved a contract.
|
01:09:40
|
|
|
05/11/22 for bulk fuel and and lubricants.
|
01:09:45
|
|
|
It was for a one year term but it allowed for 333 annual renewals.
|
01:09:49
|
|
|
We would like to renew this contract for the first time using amendment number one to to this contract.
|
01:09:55
|
|
|
And continue to.
|
01:10:02
|
|
|
Use the prices that were offered to us on the competitive bidding that took place in 2022.
|
01:10:05
|
|
|
And and the way that competitive bidding, the prices are established is using.
|
01:10:10
|
|
|
A commodity price for fuels?
|
01:10:14
|
|
|
It's a nationwide information system.
|
01:10:17
|
|
|
Available to all Opus.
|
01:10:20
|
|
|
And it publishes a weekly numbers for the price of fuel on a regional basis.
|
01:10:22
|
|
|
And so when they deliver fuel to our various locations in the county, all the road yards, if the price is based on that location
|
01:10:26
|
|
|
and based on the on the weekly price that is generated by that commodity index.
|
01:10:33
|
|
|
So it's something that we can renew and and and feel good that we're enjoying the benefit of the competitive bidding that we that
|
01:10:39
|
|
|
we undertook last year.
|
01:10:43
|
|
|
The dollar amount that $1.2 million is similar as the last year, the first year.
|
01:10:48
|
|
|
And we think that there will be sufficient to cover our fuel cost for this year. And with that I will entertain questions or.
|
01:10:54
|
|
|
Ask for your approval. Thank you, Homer. Supervisor Humphrey, Mr. Chair, I have no question. Supervisor Christensen. Thank you,
|
01:11:02
|
|
|
Homero. Is that money her money then?
|
01:11:06
|
|
|
Hurt money? Yes. OK, thanks.
|
01:11:11
|
|
|
Thank you, Homero, that I'd entertain a motion.
|
01:11:14
|
|
|
Mr. Chair, I move to approve amendment number one to contract, number 051122.
|
01:11:17
|
|
|
With.
|
01:11:23
|
|
|
Synergy Petroleum is present. I will second.
|
01:11:25
|
|
|
Having a motion and a second all in favor. Do so by saying aye aye aye motion carries on the E INFORMATION Discussion action.
|
01:11:28
|
|
|
To approve collection agreement number 070623.
|
01:11:37
|
|
|
But the Arizona Game and Fish Department with a not to exceed amount of.
|
01:11:42
|
|
|
$284,674 to provide environmental monitoring during the remaining construction of the Tunnel Creek Bridge. Thank you.
|
01:11:46
|
|
|
So this is a request for approval of collection agreement number 070623.
|
01:11:57
|
|
|
Between Hill County and the Arizona Game and Fish Department.
|
01:12:04
|
|
|
For the environmental monitoring on the Tunnel Creek Bridge construction project.
|
01:12:08
|
|
|
So a little bit of background. On December 28th, 2021, the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
|
01:12:14
|
|
|
Issued the ballot biological opinion.
|
01:12:21
|
|
|
For the Tonal Creek Bridge project.
|
01:12:25
|
|
|
One requirement of the biological opinion is that.
|
01:12:27
|
|
|
A qualified and certified biologist.
|
01:12:31
|
|
|
Shall monitor the project.
|
01:12:35
|
|
|
To avoid incidental take of Northern Mexican Garter Snakes Yellow Billed Cuckoos.
|
01:12:38
|
|
|
And Southwestern Willow flycatchers.
|
01:12:44
|
|
|
On August 15th, 2022, Wheeler County entered into an initial collection agreement number 072522.
|
01:12:48
|
|
|
With the Arizona Game and Fish Department.
|
01:12:58
|
|
|
That agreement expired on July 30th, 2023.
|
01:13:01
|
|
|
And as I mentioned, the Arizona Game and Fish Department.
|
01:13:07
|
|
|
Is providing an assigned biologist.
|
01:13:10
|
|
|
To monitor the project on a daily basis, he has to be there prior to the start of work.
|
01:13:13
|
|
|
He has to look under all the vehicles before any vehicles are moved and he has to remain there throughout the entire day until all
|
01:13:19
|
|
|
work is finished.
|
01:13:23
|
|
|
So yeah, the evaluation is again, the US Fish and Wildlife Service has required that qualified and certified biologists monitored
|
01:13:29
|
|
|
the project.
|
01:13:33
|
|
|
In Arizona, Game and Fish is doing that for us.
|
01:13:38
|
|
|
And again, it's for the Mexican Garter snake.
|
01:13:42
|
|
|
Yellow Bill Cuckoo and the Southwestern Willow Flycatcher.
|
01:13:45
|
|
|
So Arizona Game and Fish has provided this requirement since the project started.
|
01:13:50
|
|
|
August 15th, 2022.
|
01:13:56
|
|
|
This.
|
01:13:59
|
|
|
Is a.
|
01:14:00
|
|
|
But request for a new agreement.
|
01:14:01
|
|
|
That will be in effect.
|
01:14:04
|
|
|
From.
|
01:14:06
|
|
|
July 6th, 2023 to May 25th, 2024.
|
01:14:08
|
|
|
And this agreement will be in the amount of 284,000.
|
01:14:14
|
|
|
$674
|
01:14:18
|
|
|
So it is the recommendation of the public Works Director.
|
01:14:22
|
|
|
And Heather County Public Works Department.
|
01:14:25
|
|
|
That we enter into this collection agreement with the Arizona Game and Fish Department to continue.
|
01:14:28
|
|
|
Their environmental monitoring during the.
|
01:14:34
|
|
|
Remainder of the construction of the Tunnel Creek Bridge project.
|
01:14:37
|
|
|
And with that, I'll be happy to answer any questions. Thank you, Tom. Supervisor Humphrey.
|
01:14:41
|
|
|
I have no questions.
|
01:14:46
|
|
|
Supervisor Christensen, I have a question, Tom.
|
01:14:49
|
|
|
Is this part of the original bid that we did or is this on top of it addition to it?
|
01:14:52
|
|
|
Because I know we agreed to have this.
|
01:14:58
|
|
|
Done.
|
01:15:02
|
|
|
But.
|
01:15:04
|
|
|
We already agreed to do it, this is just a update.
|
01:15:06
|
|
|
In the contract, correct. So it's kind of complicated in the in our agreement with Arizona Department of Transportation who's
|
01:15:09
|
|
|
administering the project.
|
01:15:13
|
|
|
We have set a set aside $175,000.
|
01:15:18
|
|
|
For the.
|
01:15:23
|
|
|
For this monitoring requirement.
|
01:15:25
|
|
|
So so far we've only used.
|
01:15:28
|
|
|
We've only paid 2 invoices.
|
01:15:30
|
|
|
2 Arizona Game and Fish totaling 61,625 dollars.
|
01:15:33
|
|
|
So we still have.
|
01:15:38
|
|
|
So you could take the 175,000 minus the 61?
|
01:15:40
|
|
|
We have that remainder.
|
01:15:44
|
|
|
Before.
|
01:15:46
|
|
|
We would have to come up with additional funds so that so there is a remainder in the current contract that we have.
|
01:15:47
|
|
|
With a dot and a.
|
01:15:55
|
|
|
What we do is we send the invoices to a dot.
|
01:15:56
|
|
|
They.
|
01:15:59
|
|
|
Hate Arizona Game and Fish for us?
|
01:16:00
|
|
|
Once we hit that.
|
01:16:03
|
|
|
Once we run out of the 175,000.
|
01:16:06
|
|
|
Then we would have to.
|
01:16:09
|
|
|
Get into these new funds. The only thing this agreement is doing is.
|
01:16:11
|
|
|
Establishing the new agreement because the old one expired and the rates did go up.
|
01:16:15
|
|
|
About 5 to 10% on some of the some of the items.
|
01:16:20
|
|
|
OK.
|
01:16:25
|
|
|
Alright. Thanks Tom.
|
01:16:26
|
|
|

You're good with that, Mary. That's it. Any questions? Care of it separated, Humphrey.
|
01:18:19
|
|
|
Just one, did you say that the that the truck was, the amount of the truck was how much?
|
01:18:25
|
|
|
I believe that they are. Grant was for a total of 255,000.
|
01:18:32
|
|
|
OK, because I have in front of me 235,000.
|
01:18:37
|
|
|
And of its 255,000, I'm just wondering where the other 20,000 was coming from?
|
01:18:42
|
|
|
If you don't mind, let me check your e-mail real quick and I can verify verify that, Yeah, no that that. That's fine. I just.
|
01:18:47
|
|
|
I just trying to.
|
01:18:53
|
|
|
Save confusion if we approve a grant and it's.
|
01:18:55
|
|
|
Short of of the amount.
|
01:18:58
|
|
|
See if there's an amount on.
|
01:19:02
|
|
|
Yeah, it it may very well be. Thank you.
|
01:19:05
|
|
|
It doesn't 55, so we have a typo in the agenda item.
|
01:19:08
|
|
|
So we'll need to change the requested resolution to be 255,000.
|
01:19:12
|
|
|
Is that OK with the Healer River Indian community?
|
01:19:23
|
|
|
Community that would just change it to 1.
|
01:19:26
|
|
|
Well, this is the application. That was OK. Well, then in March, yeah, I'm looking at what's in front of me.
|
01:19:29
|
|
|
On their approach to their approval, say 235, OK, sorry.
|
01:19:38
|
|
|
OK. So the 2:35 is correct. OK. I'm sorry.
|
01:19:45
|
|
|
So we looked at the wrong attention. May not be correct.
|
01:19:48
|
|
|
And maybe maybe correct. It may not be correct.
|
01:19:50
|
|
|
I think this would go around all day. If you're good, how? Supervisor Christensen, how about you? I have no questions. Thank you.
|
01:19:55
|
|
|
I'm. I told him either.
|
01:20:00
|
|
|
So with that, I'll entertain a motion.
|
01:20:05
|
|
|
Well, I I guess I've got a question before I give you motion. Is is where's the other 20 coming from? No, it's Sam. You won't
|
01:20:10
|
|
|
repeat what you just said. I'm gonna go.
|
01:20:15
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
01:20:21
|
|
|
Yes, they requested 200 and 35255 thousand, but the tribe only awarded them 235,000. That's all they're getting. 235 is it? Yeah.
|
01:20:22
|
|
|
OK, then I guess they're gonna get it.
|
01:20:34
|
|
|
Discount on the truck, or the hope so up with 1000 of constituent funds or something. So District 1.

Your last one, Kaylee Jay Information, discussion, action to authorize the HeLa County.
|
01:27:12
|
|
|
Community Services Services department to submit a grant application.
|
01:27:17
|
|
|
To the Water Infrastructure Finance Authority of Arizona in the amount of $250,000 for a clean water project titled Countrywide
|
01:27:23
|
|
|
Cesspool Elimination Project for the period of two years.
|
01:27:29
|
|
|
We got two of you. So who's doing this? Michael, I'll, I'll do this one, OK.
|
01:27:37
|
|
|
So it's a joint.
|
01:27:42
|
|
|
Effort between the health department, environmental Health department and community services. So this is a unique opportunity
|
01:27:44
|
|
|
that.
|
01:27:48
|
|
|
HeLa County has working with WIFA to get funds available.
|
01:27:52
|
|
|
For homeowners that meet the income qualifications if they live in a cesspool, to get their cesspool eliminated and get a brand
|
01:27:57
|
|
|
new septic system for that property paid for.
|
01:28:03
|
|
|
And this is the grant application that Kaylee and Josh have been working on with WIFA.
|
01:28:09
|
|
|
Which allows that for HeLa County. So we would be sort of the test case in Arizona and Heela County. It's a great program.
|
01:28:15
|
|
|
In in the body of the agenda, you see it's a loan forgiveness.
|
01:28:23
|
|
|
Don't let that fool you. This is they're gonna pay the contractors directly.
|
01:28:28
|
|
|
To get the work done for homeowners. So this is a great possible option for homeowners to eliminate their cesspools if they have
|
01:28:33
|
|
|
issues with it.
|
01:28:37
|
|
|
And also to protect the groundwater that we have in, in HeLa County. And so it's for two years, $250,000 a year.
|
01:28:42
|
|
|
And it's a test case in Arizona to see if this program is is going to work good.
|
01:28:52
|
|
|
Supervisor Humphrey.
|
01:28:58
|
|
|
Well, I one, I think it's a great program to qualify the only qualified.
|
01:29:00
|
|
|
Think that you need to participate in this.
|
01:29:05
|
|
|
Is to have a cesspool.
|
01:29:09
|
|
|
Assess pool and there's going to be an income qualification, income, income as well, yes, correct.
|
01:29:11
|
|
|
OK.
|
01:29:17
|
|
|
Yeah, I I just hope that some of our properties are available because some of them may not have room for Leech and all those
|
01:29:20
|
|
|
things, but.
|
01:29:24
|
|
|
Because that can grow and so then they gotta do a perk test prior to.
|
01:29:28
|
|
|
So that's included as well so.
|
01:29:32
|
|
|
Umm.
|
01:29:35
|
|
|
I hope it's a I hope. I hope a lot of the money is able to go to help people with cesspools.
|
01:29:36
|
|
|
Instead of perk testing things that don't show up or people that don't have room so.
|
01:29:41
|
|
|
Thank you very much for putting in for this and and I I hope it works for the people.
|
01:29:46
|
|
|
Thank you Sir. Supervisor Christians to take Chairman Yeah, we need to get all the money we can get to fix accessible problems.
|
01:29:52
|
|
|
So.
|
01:29:56
|
|
|
This is not related at all to the discussion we've been having about Porta. John's right. I mean, it does not provide money to
|
01:30:00
|
|
|
remedy septic systems that are acts or anything like that, right? This is something else. OK. Thank you.
|
01:30:08
|
|
|
So Michael, what happens if you're in the Tri-City Sanitation District?
|
01:30:18
|
|
|
So currently tri-cities is their plan is to move forward with construction in about a year if they find a location that's been
|
01:30:21
|
|
|
approved for their wastewater treatment plant.
|
01:30:27
|
|
|
So currently what we would do for this is hold off on the Tri-City area for a first year until we find out whether they're going
|
01:30:32
|
|
|
to move forward with construction.
|
01:30:37
|
|
|
In the future, if the construction doesn't come through, then those people in the Tri-City sanitary District area would be
|
01:30:42
|
|
|
eligible as well. OK, And so what's the income level?
|
01:30:48
|
|
|
Ohh I think guys about.
|
01:30:54
|
|
|
Requirement of 59,321.
|
01:30:57
|
|
|
OK. That's that. Yeah or less. OK.
|
01:31:01
|
|
|
Had to get program sounds like a really good deal, so.
|
01:31:04
|
|
|
Any more questions?
|
01:31:09
|
|
|
They're good other than, Yeah, that that was that was. I'm glad you brought that up because.
|
01:31:11
|
|
|
That would be under qualification so.
|
01:31:16
|
|
|
If I get asked, it's like you're in a Tri-City district. Hold on. Because you know, well, The thing is, is if that's gonna go
|
01:31:18
|
|
|
through, yeah, we'll just be throwing money out there for Ohh, you know? Yeah, I agree. I agree. But then again, a motion.

|
|
|
Which we may have to reconvene for.

01:36:51

There will be an auction.

|
|
To conduct A to conduct an auction.

|
|

Dash 10-076.
|
01:37:05
|
|
|
Homer, I guess you'll be ready for that when it comes up so.
|
01:37:08
|
|
|
Yes, ma'am.
|
01:37:11
|
|
|
Member supervisors. I just want to note for the public that the bids will be accepted at 12:45 to 1:15.
|
01:37:13
|
|
|
12:45 to 1:15, correct? That is on the public notice. OK, we'll be conducted at 1:30 where you're making the determination, but
|
01:37:22
|
|
|
those beginning bids are going to be accepted from 12:45 to 1:15.
|
01:37:28
|
|
|
Ohh now.
|
01:37:36
|
|
|
Correct. OK. So anyone out there listening, you can put your bid in at 12:45 to 1:15. You have 30 minutes to place the bid.
|
01:37:38
|
|
|
Which will be sealed beards I would imagine, right? Is that right?
|
01:37:46
|
|
|
Are they sealed?
|
01:37:51
|
|
|
You can put your option your hat on. Is that what you're saying now?
|
01:38:00
|
|
|
I I have a question go right ahead. So this is this is property owned by the county.
|
01:38:04
|
|
|
That we're auctioning off.
|
01:38:11
|
|
|
OK, I have been in situations lately where I have.
|
01:38:13
|
|
|
Talked about selling county property and it had to at least be sold for 90% of the appraised value.
|
01:38:18
|
|
|
So if this auction does not bring 90% of the appraised value.
|
01:38:27
|
|
|
Of this property, Will that property still be sold?
|
01:38:34
|
|
|
No.
|
01:38:39
|
|
|
Chairman, member state advisor. So the minimal acceptable bid is $1520.00. So that is 90% of their praise value. OK, yeah, I just
|
01:38:40
|
|
|
had to bring that up because I've had difficulties with county property and what we can sell it for and what we can't sell it for.
|
01:38:47
|
|
|
And I would just be sure we're on the same page with all of them. That's it.
|
01:38:54
|
|
|
So.
|
01:39:02
|
|
|
Tell me that number again so people hear it.
|
01:39:03
|
|
|
Jessica is 1500 and 120.
|
01:39:06
|
|
|
1520 dollars is the minimum bid or the starting bid price, correct? The appraised value was $1688. OK, cool.
|
01:39:09
|
|
|
Well, hopefully we have love.
|
01:39:19
|
|
|
Lot of interest from 1:30.
|
01:39:21
|
|
|
But.
|
01:39:24
|
|
|
Just one. So you wanted just one. All right. We're omaro thank you for that. We'll we'll look for you 130 on the #5.
|
01:39:24
|
|
|
The do you, either one of you, have anything you want to address on the consented action that items?
|
01:39:37
|
|
|
Ohh no Sir, I'm, I'm good.
|
01:39:45
|
|
|
I only have a comment. It's impressive that it's from A-Z.
|
01:39:48
|
|
|
Yeah, that that impresses me.
|
01:39:54
|
|
|
One more sound you'd have been scrambling for letters.
|
01:39:57
|
|
|
Alright, I'll take a motion to.
|
01:40:02
|
|
|
Except these.
|
01:40:05
|
|
|
Mr. Chair, I move to approve consent agenda items 5A through five. ZI will 2nd every motion and second all in favor. Do so by

01:40:26
|
|

|
01:40:30
|
|
|
We'll give you about 3 minutes and hear what you have to say.
|
01:40:32
|
|
|
That would have been nice though. Well.
|
01:40:44
|
|
|
Good morning. My name is Ricardo Greg.
|
01:40:47
|
|
|
Another 4916 N German Ranch Rd. in Strawberry.
|
01:40:49
|
|
|
Oakland.
|
01:40:53
|
|
|
OK.
|
01:40:55
|
|
|
Hang on just a minute. I think we had a hard time getting that.
|
01:40:56
|
|
|
It it didn't come through.
|
01:41:01
|
|
|
Can you hear me? Sorry, is that better?
|
01:41:12
|
|
|
Can you hear us? Yeah, we're we're testing it.
|
01:41:15
|
|
|
OK.
|
01:41:18
|
|
|
OK, give it another try. Let's see what we got.
|
01:41:21
|
|
|
But.
|
01:41:24
|
|
|
My.
|
01:41:24
|
|
|
German Reich and Strawberry and.
|
01:41:28
|
|
|
Neighbor of.
|
01:41:33
|
|
|
In our neighborhood, we have the.
|
01:41:35
|
|
|
All of German Ranch Rd. is amusement all the way from Fossil Creek Rd. down to the end.
|
01:41:39
|
|
|
And where it curves around another easement.
|
01:41:44
|
|
|
That leads to Elk Rd. in the next subdivision here.
|
01:41:48
|
|
|
The gentleman that lives in.
|
01:41:53
|
|
|
Lost the homes on the home that you're looking at there.
|
01:41:56
|
|
|
Decided to block the easement there to to have anybody go through from German Ranch Rd. to South Road to the March neighborhood
|
01:42:00
|
|
|
here.
|
01:42:05
|
|
|
I called up the.
|
01:42:11
|
|
|
No.
|
01:42:13
|
|
|
Supervisor.
|
01:42:15
|
|
|
Steve Burke.
|
01:42:18
|
|
|
Christensen's office and I spoke to Melissa and explained the situation to her about.
|
01:42:19
|
|
|
The gentleman blocking the easement, she said, well, you can't do that. He says you need to contact a community development and
|
01:42:25
|
|
|
have them go out, investigate if there's a violation of the blockage, decide them and make them open it.
|
01:42:32
|
|
|
And I said well that's that sounds good, so.
|
01:42:39
|
|
|
Later on that same day I I contacted another neighbor that lives just next door to the gentleman that blocked the easement.
|
01:42:44
|
|
|
Here Connie and Louie Bernard.
|
01:42:53
|
|
|
Kindly call me. We've already been there and we spoke to code enforcement specialist there, Tiffany.
|
01:42:57
|
|
|
Bronco.
|
01:43:03
|
|
|
Brown.
|
01:43:05
|
|
|
Call Croft.
|
01:43:07
|
|
|
And she told us that there was nothing that she could do to force him to open the easement here.
|
01:43:08
|
|
|
When I called up and spoke to Melissa again and Melissa said let me call in the development and and find out and I'll call you
|
01:43:16
|
|
|
back.
|
01:43:21
|
|
|
Melissa called me back and she said there's an event there and if he's got it blocked.
|
01:43:27
|
|
|
Since it's not a county, maintained.
|
01:43:33
|
|
|
Easement. There was nothing that they could do to force maybe they development.
|
01:43:36
|
|
|
To do that, to have that easement open back up again.
|
01:43:42
|
|
|
That is the only way, the 2nd way in and out of our neighborhood.
|
01:43:47
|
|
|
The only exit and entry point that we have ingress and egress is.
|
01:43:54
|
|
|
On German Ranch Rd.
|
01:43:59
|
|
|
The other actions that we had is the one that was blocked, the easement that was blocked here.
|
01:44:00
|
|
|
If there's a a situation where we can't use the the one entry and exit there, we're stuck. We can't go South, we can't go anywhere
|
01:44:07
|
|
|
even we need that easement open.
|
01:44:13
|
|
|
Umm.
|
01:44:19
|
|
|
I called the.
|
01:44:22
|
|
|
When I told Melissa that she had, Tiffany called them.
|
01:44:23
|
|
|
And Tiffany explained to me that.
|
01:44:28
|
|
|
Since it was not a county maintained easement, there was nothing that she could do.
|
01:44:31
|
|
|
To get him to open up that easement, she gave me several.
|
01:44:36
|
|
|
Fairs honor revised statutes, but to thank for easement.
|
01:44:41
|
|
|
And I looked them up.
|
01:44:45
|
|
|
And read them and and there's nothing in those ARS statutes, Arizona by statute that said there has to be a county maintained
|
01:44:49
|
|
|
easement on enforcement to be to take place.
|
01:44:55
|
|
|
I also.
|
01:45:01
|
|
|
Review the.
|
01:45:04
|
|
|
Pilot counties or minor land division ordinance.
|
01:45:06
|
|
|
Sections are 100.01 and 02. This is establishes easement.
|
01:45:10
|
|
|
There's nothing in there also that says it has to be a county maintained easement.
|
01:45:15
|
|
|
Also look at the HeLa County.
|
01:45:19
|
|
|
Planning and zoning ordinances sections 107.1 and 107.2 and they talked about violations in closing the easements here.
|
01:45:22
|
|
|
And it doesn't show you anything about having to be accounting maintained.
|
01:45:32
|
|
|
We need that easement open. I don't know why. The only recourse that they said that we had was to go to Superior Court.
|
01:45:37
|
|
|
And present this to the judge and have the judge issue an order opening the easement.
|
01:45:46
|
|
|
Cuba County doesn't have any.
|
01:45:53
|
|
|
Thing that says it has to be a a.
|
01:45:56
|
|
|
A county maintained engagement.
|
01:45:59
|
|
|
And also Arizona revised statute that doesn't say anything about counties having to have maintained the easement.
|
01:46:03
|
|
|
And.
|
01:46:12
|
|
|
I asked also Tiffany this I should since German Ranch Rd.
|
01:46:14
|
|
|
The only other entrance is all an easement.
|
01:46:19
|
|
|
Owned by the people who live on on the.
|
01:46:23
|
|
|
Each side of the screen.
|
01:46:26
|
|
|
Should I try to if anyone of those people that live there land owners decided to block these but.
|
01:46:27
|
|
|
She says what would be the outcome, it says, since it's not a maintained easement too.
|
01:46:33
|
|
|
The guy that blocked the the easement here that you were using before, he's been using that easement to get back and forth through
|
01:46:38
|
|
|
his house across German Ranch Rd.
|
01:46:43
|
|
|
He would have to open up his house and take you to court to get you to open up the easement. So that's where we're at here,
|
01:46:48
|
|
|
that's.
|
01:46:52
|
|
|
I think Connie Marie wants to show you a few things here.
|
01:46:58
|
|
|
Yeah, we are the owners of Parcel 1.
|
01:47:03
|
|
|
Ohh, go ahead. Yes, can you state your name and and address as well?
|
01:47:07
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
01:47:13
|
|
|
I am planning.
|
01:47:14
|
|
|
Years of Do you want our home address or the parcel one in Parcel 2?
|
01:47:18
|
|
|
You want those addresses?
|
01:47:25
|
|
|
Just your regular address is fine.
|
01:47:27
|
|
|
OK, we live in Chandler 871 N Los Altos.
|
01:47:30
|
|
|
Chandler, AZ.
|
01:47:37
|
|
|
We bought parcels 1.
|
01:47:40
|
|
|
12, almost 13 years ago.
|
01:47:43
|
|
|
And when we bought it we got this documentation.
|
01:47:47
|
|
|
From the title company.
|
01:47:51
|
|
|
We then bought Parcel 2.
|
01:47:54
|
|
|
And with that parcel.
|
01:47:57
|
|
|
We got this documentation again.
|
01:47:59
|
|
|
They said our legal way in and out was really through Elk Rd.
|
01:48:02
|
|
|
We do have a child, a son in a wheelchair that doesn't walk.
|
01:48:10
|
|
|
Or talk.
|
01:48:16
|
|
|
We bought this property to and let him enjoy because we cannot travel.
|
01:48:17
|
|
|
If it is snowing.
|
01:48:24
|
|
|
And we are up there visiting and it starts to snow. We cannot get up Fossil Creek Rd. With his wheelchair van.
|
01:48:27
|
|
|
Because it goes uphill.
|
01:48:37
|
|
|
We we always gone through Elk Rd. ever since we've owned the premises.
|
01:48:40
|
|
|
Parcel 3.
|
01:48:49
|
|
|
The woman there was supposed to be here. She's.
|
01:48:51
|
|
|
Raised a lot of concern about this too, because she's lived there since 1990 and has never been able has always used Elk Road to
|
01:48:54
|
|
|
go to her premises.
|
01:49:00
|
|
|
So we're all very concerned we can no longer walk our son.
|
01:49:08
|
|
|
We can no longer get out in case of an emergency.
|
01:49:13
|
|
|
And.
|
01:49:17
|
|
|
If our son if we call 911 and fossil German ranch Rd. is blocked.
|
01:49:18
|
|
|
There's no other way for them to get in with him closing off that easement.
|
01:49:25
|
|
|
In the beginning, he told us he was going to put up a fence and give us a key.
|
01:49:31
|
|
|
And we thought, OK, we will wait. But may of this year when we came out, we noticed he had it totally wired off.
|
01:49:36
|
|
|
And he had planted grass.
|
01:49:45
|
|
|
Which means.
|
01:49:49
|
|
|
He his intention was to totally close it off.
|
01:49:50
|
|
|
Um, I'm just asking that.
|
01:49:54
|
|
|
The community or does something to help U.S. Open this.
|
01:49:57
|
|
|
Easement.
|
01:50:02
|
|
|
It was documented in 1995, but it has been used.
|
01:50:04
|
|
|
For over 40 years that he's been.
|
01:50:09
|
|
|
OK.
|
01:50:16
|
|
|
Is there anyone else who wants to speak to this?
|
01:50:19
|
|
|
Yeah.
|
01:50:22
|
|
|
There's appointments and in meetings, but this is.
|
01:50:27
|
|
|
Also harming, I mean we could get a petition.
|
01:50:31
|
|
|
A lot of people that have always walked through there.
|
01:50:35
|
|
|
To go to.
|
01:50:39
|
|
|
Type in the back area.
|
01:50:42
|
|
|
Now they can't even do it. They ask us what's going on and we explained to them.
|
01:50:45
|
|
|
We are. We talked to the owner of the property that who blocked the easement there.
|
01:50:52
|
|
|
His name is Albert Sin.
|
01:50:59
|
|
|
And he refuses to open up, to take down the fence, and he says no, I'm I'm closing it up.
|
01:51:01
|
|
|
We also call the it's been about a month ago, we called the sheriff and explain the situation and the sheriff and the sheriff
|
01:51:09
|
|
|
says, well, I can go talk to him, he says. But to me it's it's it's a civil matter. I can't force them to to open up the easement.
|
01:51:16
|
|
|
The sheriff did go over to talk to him and then Mr. Clean refused to open up the easement.
|
01:51:24
|
|
|
So here we are.
|
01:51:29
|
|
|
OK. Thank you.
|
01:51:32
|
|
|
So.
|
01:51:35
|
|
|
Supervisor Christianson, this is your district. It is I'm. I'm looking at a map trying to figure out where we are here. So.
|
01:51:36
|
|
|
Ohh, there's situations in that area where these are problematic, so.
|
01:51:43
|
|
|
They're looking for a remedy. So I'm just going to ask our staff, what is the remedy for them? Is the remedy through the county?
|
01:51:48
|
|
|
Is the remedy through lawsuits? Is the. I mean.
|
01:51:53
|
|
|
Are we at all?
|
01:52:00
|
|
|
Something that can act on this, the board or not.
|
01:52:04
|
|
|
Jessica Chairman number Supervisors.
|
01:52:08
|
|
|
Today this was a call to the public, so it was on the agenda. So what the board has with for you to do is to respond to criticism.
|
01:52:11
|
|
|
Instruct staff to look into it or request that the matter be put on a future agenda.
|
01:52:19
|
|
|
OK, then my comments would be that we in order to seek a remedy.
|
01:52:25
|
|
|
Because it is a public comment that we would, I'm gonna ask staff to look into this.
|
01:52:30
|
|
|
And come up with an answer.
|
01:52:35
|
|
|
That we can provide for you.
|
01:52:37
|
|
|
Christian.
|
01:52:41
|
|
|
Yes, Sir. Go ahead James. I do have a question. This has been described to me as a utility easement.
|
01:52:41
|
|
|
Is that in fact truth that it is a utility easement?
|
01:52:49
|
|
|
That were killed.
|
01:52:53
|
|
|
It's like.
|
01:52:57
|
|
|
And utility easement.
|
01:52:58
|
|
|
He all the above.
|
01:53:03
|
|
|
Public private utility, yeah.
|
01:53:06
|
|
|
You know, this isn't just a nice lady issue. I actually have one of these issues in my district.
|
01:53:09
|
|
|
And.
|
01:53:13
|
|
|
Quite honestly, it is going to civil matter. That's where it's headed and so.
|
01:53:15
|
|
|
You know, and I think as time goes on and more properties are sold and changed and whatnot, it's going to be, it's going to be
|
01:53:20
|
|
|
more but.
|
01:53:23
|
|
|
So thank you for thank you for your your presentation and bringing this up to us and.
|
01:53:27
|
|
|
And Supervisor Christiansen has instructed the our folks to look into it some more and.
|
01:53:33
|
|
|
Hopefully you'll be hearing back from us fairly soon.
|
01:53:39
|
|
|
OK. Can I?
|
01:53:42

|
|
Yeah.

01:53:44

Yep.

Just getting quick claim deed. He did not get title insurance. He did not go through a title agency so.
|
01:53:57
|
|
|
I'm wondering if that's part of the problem. It's already gone through all four.
|
01:54:05
|
|
|
People signing the document and it's being recorded. It's not like it's just an easement that's being used and not recorded.
