Good morning, Maren. Good morning, Mr. Chair, Good morning, Supervisor Humphrey. 00:10:45
Supervisor Klein. 00:10:50
As spelled out in this agenda item, we had our 11391 hearing. 00:10:52
In March. 00:10:58
We have had a couple of. 00:11:01
Present. 00:11:02
About. 00:11:03
The financial needs and impacts and opportunities. 00:11:05
That go with this. 00:11:10
And we are asking you this morning. 00:11:12
For a roll call, vote to approve. 00:11:15
Potentially selling these bonds. 00:11:19
So that Gila County can have the resources to cover its share. 00:11:21

Happy to answer any questions. We also have Mark Reeder and Paul Gales here. 00:11:33
Marcus from Stifel and Paul is from Greenberg. 00:11:37
If you have any questions for them, they're happy to answer. 00:11:40
Thank you very much, Supervisor. 00:11:44
I have no questions. 00:11:46
Supervisor Klein. 00:11:47
We're still looking at the 18,000,000. 00:11:49
Yes, Sir. 00:11:51
To clarify. 00:11:52
This is a reimbursement based fund. 00:11:54
So they will not just give us. 00:11:56
$18 million. 00:11:58
We have to spend the money. 00:11:59
Say that it's been spent and get reimbursed. 00:12:01
So, umm. 00:12:05
So we can't overspend or spend on projects that you have not approved. 00:12:05
So I think that's a good thing. 00:12:10
You know, going back to our previous meetings, I think we were setting actually about $13 million. 00:12:13
What our cost somewhere around there is what our cost is going to be. 00:12:19
Yes, actual cost and so. 00:12:22
You guys I know talked about. 00:12:24
Having the financial ability to have. 00:12:26
More access to cash, cash flow, stuff like that. 00:12:29
That's why the. 00:12:33
To 18,000,000. 00:12:34
I absolutely do not want to go any further than what we have to. 00:12:38
For cash I. 00:12:42
I've had a lot of time to think about it. 00:12:44
And I've listened to Mark. Mark's very good at. 00:12:46
Explaining all this. 00:12:48
But there's still a concern that I have and that's getting it paid. 00:12:51
You know, and I, and I think I'm not the only one with that concern. 00:12:55
And I've said on this board now for nine years and. 00:13:00
Been adamant about the fact that I do not, will not vote to raise taxes. 00:13:04
Correct, and this will not affect taxes. 00:13:08
This is a pledged revenue bond. 00:13:12
That will be repaid. 00:13:15
Through umm. 00:13:17
State shared sales tax. 00:13:18
Hill and the vehicle license tax. 00:13:20
What it comes down to at the end of the year, we've got some pretty good. 00:13:23
Payments to make. 00:13:27
You know, between this and the other bonds we have. 00:13:29
Correct. 00:13:32
And so. 00:13:32
I worry the fact that we are small county, we only have. 00:13:35
The other thing that I worry about is this isn't a. 00:13:40
Experience. This is a Band-Aid, and I've said that more than once. 00:13:42
I mean, we could no longer get started with this and have issues and there's issues that we do need to address. 00:13:46
I'm not going to say there's not. 00:13:51
But. 00:13:53
If in fact this is. 00:13:55
Collect the money as we need it. 00:13:58
And I. 00:14:00
I would have expected that's going to come in front of the board. There's things like that come up if I'm not mistaken, correct? 00:14:01
Yes, that's. 00:14:08
That is the. 00:14:09
Standard. 00:14:11
So. 00:14:12
On. I still don't have a real warm fuzzy feeling about it, especially the $18 million part of it. I do not like how. 00:14:13
The 13 million makes me pause. 00:14:22
But. 00:14:25
But I can't get past the fact that we do have some project. 00:14:27
We need to fix. 00:14:31
And the fact of the matter. 00:14:35
We'll we'll get the money as we need it and go along. 00:14:38
You know so. 00:14:41
Another thing I'm getting at is we've identified the projects we need to work on. 00:14:42
Already. 00:14:46
So I'm not going to be one that's going to be looking for new. 00:14:48
Projects to add on top of this. 00:14:52
It it's like we're gonna. 00:14:55
Work with what we have to do, which Homero has already laid out for us. 00:14:56
And it did an exceptional job of it. 00:15:01
But there's only so much we can go. 00:15:04
On this project is. 00:15:07
They're just skin pretty tight. 00:15:09
And I'll let Chairman talk while I think some more about it. 00:15:13
So I guess we're not going to buy the jet. 00:15:19
No. 00:15:21
About two and we have. 00:15:22
Mark, please correct me if I overstate this. 00:15:26
But we have. 00:15:29
Built into. 00:15:30
The documents. 00:15:32
And the structure of. 00:15:34
Of financing that as we get. 00:15:36
Reimbursed. 00:15:39
By the four letter agencies. 00:15:40
That we have the freedom to pay that back directly to the bond. 00:15:43
So we won't have to. 00:15:50
Right. You amortize it over the life of the bond? 00:15:51
But we have it set up that we can pay it back. 00:15:55
Faster than that. 00:15:58
So that there's. 00:15:59
That massively reduces the risk that you could inadvertently spend the money twice. 00:16:01
You know how like, umm, uh. 00:16:06
Like every kid with their first credit card. 00:16:08
Put emergencies on their credit card and then. 00:16:12
Spends the money twice. 00:16:14
This is structured to prevent us from doing that. 00:16:16
So, Mr. Chair, my name. 00:16:20
Mary, thank you for that because you're absolutely correct. It's different than our. 00:16:22
Our PRPS. 00:16:26
Bond that's over the full course of the deal, but this one actually can be paid off earlier so. 00:16:28
That is a huge help. 00:16:35
In my opinion. 00:16:36
Yes, it's. 00:16:37
It's just those numbers. 00:16:39
Yes, you know. 00:16:41
That's umm. 00:16:42
Just run out. 00:16:43
We have also for the purposes of. 00:16:44
Your ability to conserve cash and. 00:16:48
And be wise about that. 00:16:50
The way this is structured, the first payment isn't due until. 00:16:52
January of 27. 00:16:56
Instead of being. 00:16:58
July 1st. 00:16:59
So that you're not starting the new fiscal year? 00:17:01
You know a payable with. 00:17:05
$2,000,000. 00:17:07
Appreciate that I. 00:17:09
You know I don't. 00:17:11
Like the fact that we have to borrow money. 00:17:12
I don't see a way around it though. 00:17:14
I don't like the fact that we have a very short time period to get the projects done. 00:17:18
And all of that. But whether I like it or not is really what we're. 00:17:24
Discussing it's whether or not we're just going to prove to go ahead with it. 00:17:27
And so I would like to hear more from you. 00:17:31
Later about. 00:17:35
How we do plan on paying for this added expense? 00:17:37
And you, you just gave a little bit of a list of where the money will come from. But that also means that that money won't be 00:17:41
used. 00:17:44
For what it's. 00:17:47
Being used for now. 00:17:48
So it does take away and we just need to know the. 00:17:51
I don't believe I have a clear picture of the. 00:17:54
Impact of what this is going to do. 00:17:57
And so, Mr. Menlo. 00:17:59
A question, just a comment, Mr. Chairman. 00:18:01
So look at the magnitude of Hawaii. 00:18:05
We as staff are recommending the 18,000,000 is that. 00:18:08
Immediate projects that we have will. 00:18:10
Almost $30 million. 00:18:13
And the cash flow for $30 million over the next? 00:18:15
200 days. 00:18:19
And enables us to continue operations. 00:18:21
Our matching portion of that is. 00:18:24
A little bit less than 8 million. 00:18:27
But the magnitude of 30 million over the next. 00:18:28
Nine months in, significant course. 00:18:31
And a + 2. 00:18:33
Meet the cash flow requirements that we have. 00:18:35
For those projects. 00:18:37
Thank you, Mr. Chair. 00:18:39
So Mr. Reeder is here with us today. Do we have any specific questions for him? 00:18:41
I I don't. 00:18:48
I, you know, Mark's been really good at. 00:18:49
All this. 00:18:51
Yeah, I, I have no questions. I mean, I've been. 00:18:55
Be clear on that. 00:18:57
We we're in a state of emergency. We've had major emergencies. 00:18:59
And not borrowing money. I don't know that we could ever have enough money in savings to. 00:19:03
Be able to handle some of the things that we've been able. 00:19:08
They've been have to deal with. 00:19:11
From our labor forces that from. 00:19:13
Our equipment you've. 00:19:17
From all the time spent. 00:19:18
You know, we, we can't use like our her fund for some of that. So we have to put that back in the Kitty. 00:19:20
We have all these contractors lined up that we've got to get. 00:19:26
Done. And and federal governments approve these projects, so we're going to get money. 00:19:29
We just don't know when. 00:19:34
And and I'm gracious that. 00:19:35
That we have the opportunity. 00:19:38
To be able to have the money. 00:19:40
To do what our constituents need us to do. 00:19:42
And and the fact that we're going to get. 00:19:46
Federal money we. 00:19:48
We're working with our lobbyists in the state and the governor. 00:19:50
On funding over the next five years. 00:19:54
To help make these. 00:19:56
Payments if we don't. 00:19:58
Get funded through the federal government so. 00:19:59
To me, it it's, it's a big safety net. It's not a big hole that we're jumping into. It's a safety net to keep us from. 00:20:03
From having. 00:20:11
Major difficulties and to not get the work done we need. 00:20:13
For our. 00:20:17
To Rein. 00:20:18
You know, to fix the banks. 00:20:19
So it can't happen again and to. 00:20:21
Reimburse us for all the set. 00:20:23
Sediment and stuff that that we're going to have to haul off somewhere else to keep in our own landfill so. 00:20:25
So to me, it's a safety net and I appreciate very much. 00:20:31
The opportunity. 00:20:34
That they're not loaning us the money and we got to pay it all back. 00:20:35
It's an open, but we don't have to take the full 18,000,000 if we only use $3,000,000. 00:20:39
They're happy with it. 00:20:44
And and so to me. 00:20:46
That's that's unusual. 00:20:48
That someone would would have you in a bad situation and not try to take advantage of it. They're they're just trying to help so. 00:20:50
I appreciate it very much and, and and I do have faith in. 00:20:58
And our federal government and our state, that they will. 00:21:03
That they will help us. 00:21:06
And and to pay this money back. 00:21:08
Like I said, to me it's a safety net. 00:21:11
Not a big black hole that we're falling in. 00:21:13
And so that's my $0.02. 00:21:15
Thank you, Supervisor. 00:21:18
So there's a lot of what you said, Tim, I do agree with. 00:21:20
I don't want to sound like. 00:21:23
One in the room that's. 00:21:25
Naysayer. 00:21:27
But. 00:21:28
Gila County has always had issues through the history of flooding. 00:21:32
We're always going to have those issues. 00:21:36
It's just a matter of when our next go round is. 00:21:38
And that's something that. 00:21:41
I'm real. I've been, really. 00:21:43
Kicking myself around about as well because we could. 00:21:45
No longer, no sooner get this thing started and our projects going that need done. 00:21:50
I'm not denying they don't need. 00:21:54
And have another flooding event in July. 00:21:56
I mean the. 00:22:00
So, So what I'm saying is, is I don't want to see us set ourselves up in a position. 00:22:02
Or were corner hooked in July Did to help anybody else out? 00:22:07
Like if the county strapped to the Max. 00:22:11
What do we do then? 00:22:14
So these are things that are out there. I know it's a warrior and it may not ever happen. 00:22:16
But it's still sitting there and so. 00:22:21
That's my idea is that's not to have to go to that 18,000,000. 00:22:25
Keep it within reason that we can handle. 00:22:31
Thank you. 00:22:35
Thank you, Mr. Reeder, for coming and being available for any. 00:22:37
Thing doesn't look like we have any questions for you. 00:22:40
So you have a safe trip now as you have to go like that so. 00:22:43
With that, when did you have the? 00:22:48
The motion for us on this item. 00:22:51
I can do. I think it'll end up being my turn on the deal so. 00:22:54

Good morning, Shira. 00:27:54
Good morning. We're going to be with Sheriff for a little while now. Information, discussion actually to approve or deny A 00:27:55
petition for redemption of exemption, waiver from. 00:27:59
James Muir. 00:28:04
Particularly have the individual tax exemption that is deemed. 00:28:05
Waived by statute. Redeemed for year. 00:28:08
2026 Show. 00:28:12
Yes. Good morning, Mr. Chair. Supervisors. 00:28:14
Under Arizona Revised Statute 4211111. 00:28:18
James Muir qualifies. 00:28:22
For a 100% property tax exemption as a 100% disabled veteran. 00:28:24
By the Veterans Affairs. 00:28:30
ARS42-11153A. 00:28:32
Provides that if the qualified taxpayer does not file. 00:28:36
Your application for exemption during January 1. 00:28:40
And March 1, they waived the exemption. 00:28:43
However. 00:28:45
Under ARS42-11153B. 00:28:47
This provides the way to redeem the waived exemption by petitioning you. 00:28:51
The board Mr. Muir did not file his application prior to March 1st because he was waiting on his tax returns to be finalized. 00:28:56
Which is one of the key components that must be submitted with the application. 00:29:05
As of right now, Mr. Muir will pay no property taxes for 2027 and beyond. 00:29:10
But with your approval today, Mr. Muir would redeem his right to receive that exemption. 00:29:16
For 2026 tax year as well. 00:29:21
His property is in in Payson, so it's your. 00:29:25
District, Mr. Chair. 00:29:28
And his primary assessed value. 00:29:30
Is 34,474 which would give him. 00:29:33
A tax forgiveness of about $4200. 00:29:37
I'll take any questions. 00:29:40
Thank you, Sheriff Supervisor Humphrey. 00:29:42
Just just the same old. 00:29:45
Oh, questions. I guess I don't have a question of. 00:29:47
You but as I look through here. 00:29:50
I'm going to ask my assistant Terry, do you mind looking up these so I know what? 00:29:54
Qualifications. 00:29:58
So when these come before me, I know what the what they needed to do to get. 00:30:00
What they have? 00:30:04
And so anyway. 00:30:06
That's and and so this will be. 00:30:08
A0 Tax. 00:30:12
Property. 00:30:14
That is correct. Will owe nothing from here on out. 00:30:15
That is correct, with the new law in place allowing for a full exemption for 100%. 00:30:17
Disabled veterans. 00:30:24
He will pay no taxes on his primary. OK. 00:30:25
Thank you. And and if I may go ahead and and respond to your comment there, Supervisor Humphrey on the qualifications. 00:30:29
There is an income. 00:30:37
Cap for most. 00:30:40
Of the exemptions. 00:30:42
If you're a veteran, there is no income cap. 00:30:44
That's a new law as well. 00:30:46
So it doesn't matter what they make. 00:30:48
There is normally a valuation cap on their property. 00:30:50
For veterans, there is no cap now. 00:30:55
But there is for a widow, widower, total and permanent disabled persons. They have the valuation cap, they have the income cap. 00:30:58
Umm. 00:31:06
For the total and permanent, they would have to have a letter from their doctor or they would have to fill out. The doctor would 00:31:11
fill out one of our forms. 00:31:14
Saying that they are total and permanent. 00:31:17
For the veteran, they have to have the letter from the BA. 00:31:19
Showing their visibility. 00:31:22
And everyone that I bring to you. 00:31:25
Today. Umm. 00:31:27
And in the future have met all those qualifications have. 00:31:28
Are qualified for the exemption. 00:31:33
In future years and we're just getting them the exemption for the current. 00:31:35
To both climb. 00:31:43
Sure. Thank you for doing this. 00:31:45
I I. 00:31:47
You know, I know, Jim. You're very well. 00:31:48
I know the issues he's having, everything is and whatnot and being a veteran and what he's went through. 00:31:51
And it it is good that we were giving these folks. 00:31:56
A break, absolutely. Thank you for doing this. 00:32:00
You're welcome. 00:32:02
Yeah, thank you. I, I know Jim as well. It's great. 00:32:03
And he told me that he received. 00:32:07
2 Purple Hearts. 00:32:09
On separate occasions on the same day. 00:32:11
Yeah, that's pretty unlucky. 00:32:17
Yeah, so. 00:32:19
With that, I'll call. 00:32:21
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve a petition for redemption of exemption waiver from James Muir for tax year 2026. 00:32:23
I'll second motion and a second to approve. Those in favor say aye aye. 00:32:32
Aye, item. 00:32:36
5D Information Discussion Actually approve or deny a petition of redemption. 00:32:38
Exemption waiver from Benjamin V Holston. 00:32:42
Petitioning to have an individual tax exemption that is being waived by the statute redeemed for. 00:32:47
Tax year 2026. 00:32:52
Yes, again, Mr. Chair, members of the Board, we have the same statutes at play here. 00:32:55
At Benjamin Valley and James Holstein qualifies. 00:33:00
For the 100% property tax exemption as a 100% disabled veteran. 00:33:04
Mr. Holston did not file his application prior to March 1st because he was waiting on his tax return to be finalized and again, a 00:33:10
key component to the application. 00:33:14
As of right now, Mr. Holston will pay no property taxes for 2027 and beyond, and we're asking for that to also include this year. 00:33:20
His probability is again in Payson. 00:33:28
And the primary s s value 25,038, which would give a tax forgiveness of just over $3000. 00:33:30
Happy to answer your. 00:33:37
Thank you, Supervisor. 00:33:39
Yeah. 00:33:41
Yeah, it's it's not a question you it's just the state laws because. 00:33:43
I'm dealing with a lot of properties that end up without owners. 00:33:47
And so I think it's great. I mean, I think it's great we're helping. 00:33:51
Veterans and elderly people, it's just. 00:33:55
A lot of times when that property. 00:33:58
Um, when those people. 00:34:00
Don't have that property anymore. 00:34:03
I ended up dealing with a lot of properties that don't have owners. 00:34:06
And if they're not paying, at least. 00:34:10
$1.00 in taxes and we don't know. 00:34:11
Who's paying those property taxes? 00:34:14
Or it can't go to a tax lien foreclosure sale. 00:34:17
Because there's no taxes owed. 00:34:20
And so it just. 00:34:22
Created a problem that. 00:34:23
That I have. 00:34:25
And legislation this year to try to. 00:34:27
Help with some of these properties so. 00:34:29
I'm not against it. 00:34:31
I'm just against a complete. 00:34:32
No tax. 00:34:34
And so thank you. 00:34:35
And I appreciate what you're doing, certainly. 00:34:37
A supervisor carnival. 00:34:40
I'm good, sure. Thank you. 00:34:41

Redeemed for tax year 2026. 00:35:23
Thank you, Mr. Chair, members of the Board. 00:35:26
Again, under all the same statutes. 00:35:28
Janice M Smoot qualifies for a. 00:35:31
Commercial property tax exemption as a widow. 00:35:33
Miss Smoot did not file her application because she was unaware that the application. 00:35:38
Window closed on March 1st. 00:35:42
As of right now. 00:35:44
On this move does qualify for next year and beyond and we ask for this year to be included. 00:35:46
This property is in Payson. 00:35:51
The primary assessed value on Miss Moot's property is 18,547. 00:35:53
The allowable exemption. 00:35:59
Then this is state state law. 00:36:02
Is 4873. 00:36:04
That amount gets deducted. 00:36:07
From. 00:36:08
The primary assessed. 00:36:09
Leaving an assessed value of $13,674. 00:36:11
And would. 00:36:16
Provide roughly a tax forgiveness of $860 from this movement. 00:36:17
But she will still owe taxes. 00:36:22
Happy to answer any questions whether Humphrey. 00:36:24
I have no. 00:36:26

Her property is in Pine. 00:37:40
The primary assessed value is 15,860. 00:37:43
Less the statutory amount of $4873. 00:37:46
Would land her a net assessed value of $10,987.00, giving her an estimated tax forgiveness. 00:37:51
Of $739. 00:37:59
Happy to answer questions. 00:38:01

No questions. 00:38:04

Item 5H Information Discussion. Action to approve or deny A petition for redemption of exemption Waiver from Jerry L. 00:39:41
Kirkham senior. 00:39:48
Petitioning to have the property tax exemption on parcel. 00:39:51
30540009. 00:39:54
E which is deemed waived by the statue redeemed for tax year 20. 00:39:57
26 Thank you, Mr. Chair, members of the Board. 00:40:01
I actually would like to pull this agenda item. Mr. Kirkham already has the exemption. 00:40:04
It was an oversight on our part. 00:40:10
Anybody, any veteran that already had the exemption automatically? 00:40:12
Got kicked into the 100% so no petition was needed. 00:40:16
OK, so do we need to table this? 00:40:20
Charlotte or What do we do with this? 00:40:23
OK, I'll just. 00:40:27
Let's just have a vote to table it. 00:40:28
I'll call for a motion to table item 5H. 00:40:30
Mr. Chair, I. 00:40:35
Of cable. 00:40:38
5H. 00:40:40
I'll second it motion and a second to table. 00:40:42
Those in favor say aye. 00:40:45
Aye, aye, aye. 00:40:47
All right, last one, Item 5I is the information discussion action to approve or deny a petition. 00:40:48
A redemption of exemption waiver. 00:40:54
From Joyce. 00:40:56
COLA are petitioning to have the property tax exemption on Parcel 301. 00:40:57
24096 That seemed to be waived by the statute regime for tax year 2026. 00:41:02
Thank you, Mr. Chair, members of the Board. 00:41:09
Under the same statutes, Joyce Cola qualifies for a partial property tax exemption as a widow. 00:41:12
She did not. 00:41:19
File in the application window because she was unaware of the program. 00:41:20
She qualifies for next year and beyond. We ask for this year to be applied as well. 00:41:24
Her property is in Pine. 00:41:28
Her primary assessed value is 14,117. 00:41:30
You deduct the statutory allowed amount of 4873 leaving. 00:41:35
A net assessed value of 9244. 00:41:41
This would also provide her an estimated tax forgiveness of $739. 00:41:45
Thank you, Supervisor Humphrey. 00:41:51
I guess. 00:41:54
All of these are up in the northern part of Gila County. 00:41:55
That you brought before us today. 00:41:59
Yes, OK. And and a lot of times you said that they weren't aware of the program. 00:42:00
So are are we doing anything to make? 00:42:06
The people in the southern part of Una County aware. 00:42:08
The program, we're doing the same in the southern part as we do in the northern part. 00:42:11
OK. Thank you. 00:42:15
Supervisor Klein. 00:42:17
Sure is. Is that on our website? 00:42:19
That folks can. 00:42:21
Click on and. 00:42:23
See what it takes to do this and who would be in. 00:42:24
And yes, it is alright. Good. 00:42:26
Good deal. 00:42:28
It's on our website we put on our Facebook page. We. 00:42:29
Advertised veterans groups and other groups. 00:42:33
We get the word out there as best we can. 00:42:36
Sounds like a wonder to me. Thank you. 00:42:39
Sure, I think you need to work on. 00:42:41
Getting more revenue, not less. 00:42:43
OK, call for a motion. 00:42:49
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve a petition. 00:42:52

#2026-02 Propane A. 00:45:45
2026 as Fair Housing month in Gila County. 00:45:49
Hello again, Paula. 00:45:54
Hello. 00:45:55
So, Chairman, what we're doing today is we're going to be doing a couple of proclamations. 00:45:56
I don't know if you'd like me to read them, but I can recap. 00:46:01
The fair housing. 00:46:05
That it just prohibits discrimination. 00:46:08
In the sale, rental, leasing and financing of housing or land to be used. 00:46:11
For construction of housing or the provision of brokerage. 00:46:16
Services on the basis of race color. 00:46:19
Religion. Sex. 00:46:22
Family status or national origin? 00:46:24
So we would like. 00:46:26
For you to. 00:46:28
You prove this so that. 00:46:29
Our housing department can. 00:46:30
Can continue to receive their funds. 00:46:32
Based on this I probably. 00:46:34
Nation, it's one of the grant deliverables that we have every year. 00:46:36
So we would like to. 00:46:40
Have you ever heard this was? 00:46:42
Thank you, Supervisor Humphrey. 00:46:43
I have no questions. Thank you. 00:46:45
Super Kline. 00:46:47
Thank you, Paula. 00:46:48
Yeah. Thank you, Paula. 00:46:50
For time constraints, maybe we just don't need to read them. 00:46:52
Ultimately, so thank you for the information. With that I'll call for. 00:46:55
A motion, Mr. Chair. I'll make the motion to adopt. 00:47:00
Proclamation number 2026. 00:47:03
I'll second it. 00:47:07
Motion and a second to approve. Those in favor say aye. 00:47:08
Aye aye. 5L Information discussion Action to adopt Proclamation number 2026. 00:47:11
03 proclaiming. 00:47:17
April 2026 is Child Abuse Prevention Month. 00:47:18
In Gila County. 00:47:21
Paula And this one is for Child Abuse Prevention Month. 00:47:23
Just so that our children can grow up. 00:47:28
Healthy and supported. 00:47:30
And we hope that you'll approve this proclamation as well. 00:47:32
For child abuse prevention on. 00:47:35
Thank you, Supervisor. 00:47:37
Is this kind of a program to let them know? 00:47:39
What abuse actually is. 00:47:42
I'm just wondering how that. 00:47:46
If somebody is abusing a child. 00:47:49
You know, you know. 00:47:51
Way to help them put them in jail. 00:47:52
I mean, is this to help the children understand what? 00:47:54
What's good behavior? Bad behavior? 00:47:57
Chairman, members of the board, this is actually a proclamation giving all of what prevention and what community agencies can do. 00:47:59
But the education piece is really. 00:48:08
Throughout, you know, helping support other agencies to make it aware that child abuse, this is child abuse prevention. 00:48:11
No, but it's not really enforcement or. 00:48:18
Anything else, it just proclaims the. 00:48:21
The month that we all. 00:48:23
Get together and sort of make this. 00:48:25
A probability so everybody understands the importance. 00:48:27
Of keeping our children. 00:48:30
And healthy. 00:48:32
We could do some education behind it. 00:48:34
Our education is in schools. 00:48:36
We do, you know, tobacco free, all of this. 00:48:39
Supportive, you know, adult. 00:48:41
You know, support. 00:48:43
Education that we do in the schools. 00:48:44
The children and the families. 00:48:46
Is just a piece of it. 00:48:48
So I think by. 00:48:50
Proclaiming it just. 00:48:51
Makes it evident out of the. 00:48:52
Community, thank you. 00:48:55
Supervisor Klein. 00:48:57
Can we go through the whole years to just? 00:48:59
I mean, this is an important deal. 00:49:02
And to recognize it for a month is good. Recognize it for. 00:49:05
Year long. 00:49:08
Every year. 00:49:10
Would even be better. 00:49:11
But thank you for what you're doing. 00:49:13
Thank you. I appreciate it. And I think it would be good to do even some more awareness if we could. 00:49:14
Around this, you know. 00:49:20
Blue is the color. 00:49:22
And they do a lot with blue ribbon. 00:49:23
You know, we you know, it would be nice to have. 00:49:25
You know, maybe some of the departments. 00:49:28
Having the blue ribbons and wearing them. 00:49:30
Because that would give awareness. People will ask why are you wearing ribbon? 00:49:32
Honestly, there is a lot of awareness days. 00:49:36
Throughout the year. 00:49:38
A lot of months. 00:49:40
But this is very important. 00:49:41
Yeah. Thank you. 00:49:43
Paula, real quick if you can answer quickly. 00:49:46
Who determines what abuse is? 00:49:49
Chairman, I would say probably. 00:49:54
It depends on the Rep. 00:49:57
It goes through our. 00:49:58
Through our agency. 00:50:00
But honestly, the frontline. 00:50:02
Such as most of us here are all. 00:50:04
We're all reporters, mandatory reporters. 00:50:07
So we make the calls to. 00:50:10
Like a 1800 SOS. 00:50:12
And at that point, an investigation starts. 00:50:15
If it's an urgent issue, then actually the Sheriff's Office or. 00:50:18
East Department will come out and actually do. 00:50:22
And investigation there with? 00:50:24
The staff members and I'm coming from the health department, so. 00:50:25
Telling you a little bit about how we do it. 00:50:29
If it is an issue, that can be. 00:50:31
They send it in conjunction with not only enforcement. 00:50:34
They go to DCS. 00:50:38
Department of Child Safety. 00:50:40
And they will actually go out and do an investigation as well, OK. 00:50:41
So that's sort of how. 00:50:45
It's based on and then it goes to the courts. 00:50:47
So ultimately, I believe the. 00:50:49
Right are involved with whether the child. 00:50:51
But DCS is the one that can actually, if there's something going on, they can actually remove the child. 00:50:53
Or children in the home. 00:50:58
Right. And we do not have any homes here. 00:51:00
For them to remove them, well, some some abuses. 00:51:02
Obvious, you know. 00:51:05
But then it's it's also culturally we're. 00:51:06
Were saying you know any disciplinary action that a parent has. 00:51:10
Could be considered abusive if that hurts their feelings or you know. 00:51:15
And we've kind of moved into that kind of a. 00:51:19
Subjective realm. So that's why I was just wondering who determines whether someone's. 00:51:21
The interview, so thanks for that answer. 00:51:26
Absolutely. Thank you, Chair. 00:51:28
All right, So I'll call for a motion. 00:51:30
Mr. Chair, I moved to adopt, propagate. 00:51:32
Proclamation #2026-03. 00:51:34
I'll second that. We'll spend a second to approve. Those in favor say aye aye. 00:51:38
I. 00:51:42
Item 5 M is information discussion action to approve a contract number 031726. 00:51:43
Motorola Solutions for license. 00:51:49
Recognition system. 00:51:52
For the term of April 7th. 00:51:54
2026 through June 30th. 00:51:56
Winning 26 on a maximum contract amount I can see. 00:51:58
$175,840 Utilizing A sole source. 00:52:02
The Pulitzer method. 00:52:06
In accordance with county procurement. 00:52:07
Policy. Uh. 00:52:10
Hello, Cole. Hey, good morning, Chairman Crucial. City Supervisor Humphrey, Supervisor Klein. 00:52:11
I'm excited to finally. 00:52:16
Present this to you guys and hopefully get this tool in front of a lot of cops. 00:52:18
Passionate mind to get this tool for everybody for a lot of years. 00:52:22
But it does have the potential. 00:52:26
Create some constituent concerns. 00:52:28
So. 00:52:30
As much as I don't want to spend time going through something. 00:52:32
Days that we've already got in front of us, I think. 00:52:34
Making sure I give a good. 00:52:37
Scope of work here and. 00:52:38
Addressing the concerns that could potentially come up for you guys. 00:52:40
We'll spend a little bit more time than I probably would. 00:52:43
So first I'm going to drill in on the money, where it came from the. 00:52:46
Project scope and then. 00:52:49
Will hit the constituent concerns at the end. 00:52:51
So Sheriff's Office received $624,000 and some change. 00:52:54
From the state for a local border security funds. 00:53:00
That's designed to directly combat crime resulting from the proximity of the border. 00:53:03
And human trafficking and drug. 00:53:09
We've used that money. About 308,000 went into our K9 program. 00:53:11
This uh uh. 00:53:16
Automatic license. Bidder reader project. 00:53:17
It's going to be right around 315,000. 00:53:19
The 175 K we're talking about today is just for the purchase of. 00:53:22
The license plate reader. 00:53:27
Hardware. 00:53:29
And then licensing for five years. 00:53:29
Fred always figure out how to pay for it for at least a few years instead of. 00:53:32
Trying to come up with that every year. So that's where the money comes from. 00:53:36
Project implementation. 00:53:41
Although it is the sole source of Motorola. 00:53:42
You know, everything I pretty much present to you guys is a Motorola product. 00:53:45
There there is other companies out there. 00:53:49
I know there's always concerns from the finance department and. 00:53:51
On how or why, even if we're using the state contract or. 00:53:55
A sole source. 00:53:58
In this particular product. 00:54:01
The the implementation and of working within the Motorola ecosystem that we already have. 00:54:03
Functioning is. 00:54:08
Imperative. 00:54:09
So that's that's the reason why this is a sole source. 00:54:10
And I'm happy to kind of drill in on some of those other questions if you guys have a question about the other. 00:54:15
Companies, uh. 00:54:19
Like I said, I've been. 00:54:22
Trying to get this tool in front of everybody for a lot of years. We actually purchased a couple license plate readers, 3 fixed 00:54:23
systems. 00:54:26
And then one that we put on all of our canine vehicles a couple years ago. 00:54:30
So we've done about two years of testing. 00:54:34
To make sure the product does what we think it'll do. 00:54:37
And it's as useful as. 00:54:40
Other agencies that have had it for a long time say it is. 00:54:42
And they also can I give our guys an idea of is it, you know, a tool that they don't really have time to use? 00:54:45
Or if it's. 00:54:51
You know, an important tool that they want. 00:54:52
Because of the amount of money there, we really felt like we needed to do our due diligence there. 00:54:54
The last part of. 00:55:00
Last part of this which isn't included in this is the installation quotes. I still haven't gotten that. 00:55:02
Nailed down then the ADOT licensing. 00:55:07
I'll do results so we won't be. 00:55:09
Won't be having to pay anybody to do licensing. 00:55:11
Last part is the. 00:55:14
Constituent concerns so. 00:55:16
The two biggest constituent concerns that will come up. 00:55:17
If they do come up. 00:55:21
It comes up in different parts of the country. 00:55:23
I don't really think we'll deal with it here, but. 00:55:25
In case it does. 00:55:27
So what this tool does is it's we post these up on. 00:55:29
Streets and we put these on highways. 00:55:34
And it takes a picture of the license plate. 00:55:36
It stores the picture of a vehicle and the. 00:55:39
License plate information into a database that. 00:55:41
What this does is we don't store the information ourselves. 00:55:44
We're leasing, you know, we purchased the hardware. 00:55:47
That gathers the data. 00:55:50
But we're really just leasing access to the database that stores all of these. 00:55:51
Locations of where these license plates were. 00:55:56
Photograph. 00:55:58
So the biggest concern is privacy. 00:56:00
People feel like, hey, you're taking pictures of me, where I'm going and what I'm doing. 00:56:03
We're not really taking pictures. 00:56:07
Person. It's the license plate. 00:56:09
And where that license plate was at a given moment? 00:56:11
Which feeds into the next biggest concern, which is. 00:56:14
FOIA or Freedom of Information Act? 00:56:17
Requests so when? 00:56:20
When this first came out, everybody was concerned that. 00:56:23
Joe Citizen would come in and say, hey, I want to know where. 00:56:26
This person's going. 00:56:29
And now us being the government. 00:56:31
We if we have a record. 00:56:33
Were required to disclose it. 00:56:35
They don't have to have a good reason or any reason really. They just. 00:56:37
Can you not ask for anything? 00:56:40
If we have the record, we have to. 00:56:42
Sure, but because we don't actually have. 00:56:44
The record of this license plate information, we merely have access to it. 00:56:47
If there is a. 00:56:52
Request that comes in for this information. 00:56:54
We just have to refer the norm to Motorola. 00:56:57
To find that. 00:56:59
And what I mean by that is, you know, how does that concept. 00:57:00
So. 00:57:03
Probably the easiest, simplest way is. 00:57:06
Husband's concerned about where his wife is. 00:57:08
Once the community say I want to wear this license plates. 00:57:10
We would not disclose anything that has to do with the license plate reader. 00:57:14
Information Should we provide anything related to a? 00:57:18
Sheriff's Office record of a citation or a traffic stop or. 00:57:21
Where that plate? 00:57:24
Contacted by a cop. 00:57:26
But not every time that. 00:57:27
Wastefully crossed one of our license plate readers. 00:57:29
So that's that's everybody's biggest concerns. People can find out where they're going and what they're doing. 00:57:33
The entity Motorola that stores all this info. 00:57:38
Would not have to. 00:57:42
Just succumbed to a random request for information. You have to get a court order. 00:57:43
To do that so. 00:57:47
That's that's the. 00:57:49
The biggest point of contention there? 00:57:51
There's, you know, that's. 00:57:54
That's the unfortunate side of this, but there's. 00:57:56
Tons of success stories about solving crimes. 00:57:59
Related to uh. 00:58:02
Figuring out. 00:58:03
Headed in a certain direction. 00:58:05
Our Drug Enforcement guys. 00:58:07
When they pull over a vehicle they suspect a drug smuggling, most of the time they know where that vehicle has been. 00:58:10
Long before they walk up to the operator and. 00:58:15
Get the information. 00:58:17
Huge tool in determining if there's. 00:58:19
Deception and criminal activity occurring. 00:58:22
The Tunnel Basin burglar we had a couple of years ago. 00:58:26
We were able to kind of. 00:58:30
Get a general idea of where that stolen vehicle was? 00:58:31
Where that burglar was. 00:58:34
Based on some license plate. 00:58:36
Information. 00:58:38
We don't have a. 00:58:39
Ton of stories to share because. 00:58:40
We've only had a couple of cameras installed but. 00:58:43
You know, in a short amount of time, assuming you guys breathe us using these tools. 00:58:45
In a short amount of time, I'd be happy to discuss some success stories. 00:58:49
Failures they didn't see coming. 00:58:54
So does that strike up any questions or concerns? 00:58:57
Supervisor Humphrey. 00:59:01
Yeah, like like everything, it's a double edged sword. 00:59:05
A time by by. 00:59:07
Staff or personnel? 00:59:10
I mean. 00:59:11
So is it up to each individual officer? Like if he. 00:59:12
If he if he wants to read a plate or something then. 00:59:16
He seeks this information or will it go back? 00:59:20
To your office staff to. 00:59:23
To check for that information. 00:59:24
I I'm just saying if you, if you have a bunch of cameras out there. 00:59:27
And like you say, then you have a bunch of requests. 00:59:30
That management part of getting that information out and to. 00:59:34
Whoever needs it. 00:59:39
Yeah. So that's a great question and that's. 00:59:40
That's a that's a really important. 00:59:43
Question because. 00:59:47
Every cop has access to the database. It's a website that they're granted access to once their identity is confirmed that they do 00:59:48
work for a. 00:59:52
Law enforcement agency. 00:59:55
And any the way this licensing works is any agency within Gila County? 00:59:57
Because this the way this funding source works is. 01:00:01
You have to make it available to any law enforcement agency in the county, so. 01:00:03
All the police departments. 01:00:07
And tribal law enforcement within. 01:00:09
County would have access to this in the officer themselves have access. 01:00:11
There's a million tools in there that I couldn't even do. 01:00:15
Begin to explain but. 01:00:17
The cop themselves can put in a license plate. 01:00:19
Run a query and no. 01:00:21
Within. 01:00:23
Extremely short amount of time everywhere that plates been. 01:00:24
Week 2 Weeks, 30 days. 01:00:28
In terms of. 01:00:31
Notifying us when there's a. 01:00:32
A Silver Alert or an Amber Alert? 01:00:35
Or any alert that's been placed on. 01:00:38
Placed within a national database. 01:00:41
Related to that plate. 01:00:43
That information will hit all the officers. 01:00:45
As well as our dispatch. 01:00:47
So. 01:00:49
There's some added. 01:00:51
Benefit there even if a car goes by and a cop doesn't think. 01:00:52
Well, there's criminal activity involved if it's related to an Amber Alert. 01:00:56
Where it's a stolen vehicle. 01:00:59
Or it's been earmarked as. 01:01:01
Vehicle involved in human smuggling. 01:01:04
It's going to alert everybody within. 01:01:07
Our entity that that. 01:01:10
Vehicle just went past that plate. 01:01:12
Another question is. 01:01:15
If everyone has access to this. 01:01:18
Will their activity be overseen? 01:01:22
Yeah. So we've only had one. 01:01:26
Records request from the County Attorney's office or through the County Attorney's Office from a defendant to know. 01:01:30
What? 01:01:35
What this officer did, what their query was, what they saw and how they did it. 01:01:37
So everything within these systems is. 01:01:41
Was tracked through that clicking. 01:01:44
It doesn't really create like an audit report automatically. We can have to go. 01:01:47
Audit the. 01:01:51
So if a citizen filed a complaint. 01:01:52
If if the defendants attorney wants information. 01:01:54
Related to the amount of. 01:01:58
Queries or what was queried. 01:02:00
That we can provide. 01:02:02
To anybody who needs it. 01:02:04
OK, good. 01:02:05
Yeah, not, I mean. 01:02:07
I mean, I, I'm sure all of our officers are great officers, but. 01:02:08
You know, I mean, temptation is one thing, and so as long as they're over that. 01:02:12
Trust, that's a question I have. So thank you. 01:02:16
Yeah, I have no further questions. 01:02:19
Thank you, Supervisor Klein. 01:02:21
So cold these will be in all the patrol units. 01:02:22
So the purchase of this 175 K, it gives us a 25 fixed cameras that I plan to put along the highways. 01:02:25
Coming in and out of Healing County and a couple of. 01:02:33
Areas within Healing County and then systems on 4 mobile vehicles. 01:02:35
OK. 01:02:40
So you, you guys might have seen, I mean. 01:02:41
We're late to the party. 01:02:43
They've been all over the country for a long, long. 01:02:44
There's there's other agencies within Gila County that have some also. We're just looking to. 01:02:46
Put them in. 01:02:52
More strategic areas. 01:02:53
So they just sit along with highway. You'll see a. 01:02:55
A solar panel and like a little camera on it. 01:02:57
OK. 01:03:01
Be interesting to see how. 01:03:03
How you do with it? 01:03:04
Yeah, yeah. 01:03:05
Yeah. Thanks Call. 01:03:08
And see why people would. 01:03:10
Consider privacy, Big Brother, all that stuff that's been coming for so long. 01:03:13
Yeah. 01:03:19
So anyway. 01:03:21
We're here to catch bad people. 01:03:23
And help people. 01:03:25
Not, uh. 01:03:27
We'll try and track everybody's whereabouts so we could care less about their whereabouts. 01:03:29
I hope you would care less. 01:03:35
Joe, Mr. Chairman, to to respond to a question that Supervisor Humphrey asked. 01:03:38
Arizona Post also has the ability to audit these records. 01:03:43
And more than one. 01:03:47
Law enforcement officer in Arizona has either been suspended or lost a certification. 01:03:50
The misuse of these electronics storage systems. 01:03:55
OK. Yeah, that's a good point. When when concerns do arise, we do have the ability to drill in on what that. 01:03:59
That cop did and hold them accountable to inappropriate activity. 01:04:05
Yeah. Thank you. 01:04:08
Right, but then I woke up for a motion. 01:04:11

Thank you Information Discussion 5. 01:06:34
Oh information discussion action to approve the use of Arizona State. 01:06:37
Cooperative contract number Ctr. 077662. 01:06:43
With Curtis Blue Line. 01:06:47
In the amount of $64,323. 01:06:49
$0.70 for the purchase of 57. 01:06:52
Ballistic. 01:06:55
Comments. 01:06:56
Thank you again, Mr. Chairman. 01:06:58
Supervisor Humphrey. Supervisor. Client. 01:07:00
On this situation. 01:07:02
In 2021 was when we last purchased ballistic helmets for the. 01:07:05
The deputies that includes patrol or investigations and that. 01:07:09
Those are coming up on their end of life. They'll be due for replacement in June of this year. 01:07:13
Normally the life expectancy on those, it's the same as the ballistic armor that we have. They've got that expiration date. 01:07:19
Generally, it's five years. 01:07:26
These helmets that we have. 01:07:28
Are coming up on their five year expiration date. 01:07:31
In this particular case, the helmets we were able to locate. 01:07:33
Have a 10 year warranty. 01:07:37
So we would actually be looking at getting double. 01:07:39
The amount of time. 01:07:41
And the the expense, it's a little bit more than what a five year warranty helmet would be, but it's less than what. 01:07:43
Doubling the price so. 01:07:49
In the long run, we're actually getting helmets that are going to last longer for less money. 01:07:52
Great supervisor. 01:07:56
No Christians. 01:07:58
Good to go. Thanks, Jim. 01:08:00
Yeah, so there's a perishable or. 01:08:01
Interior radiant portion to the. 01:08:03
Composition there. 01:08:06
Yes, just ages. 01:08:07
OK. All right. Thank you. With that, I'll call for a motion. 01:08:09
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve the use of Arizona State for. 01:08:12
Pyramid cooperative contact number. 01:08:16
Ctr. 077. 01:08:18
Do the Curtis Blue line as presented. 01:08:21
Mr. Second it. 01:08:24
Motion in a second to approve. Those in favor say aye aye. 01:08:25
Next item 5 P Information discussion action to ratify the Board of Supervisors approval for. 01:08:30
Sheriff's Office electronic submission of two. 01:08:35
Fiscal year 20. 01:08:39
27. 01:08:40
Grant applications. 01:08:42
To the Governor's Office of Hwy. Safety for law enforcement projects. 01:08:44
Number one request. 01:08:48
I need assistance. 01:08:49
To provide overtime funding the amount of 75,725. 01:08:51
Dollars of which 60,000? 01:08:55
$644. 01:08:58
It's for personal. 01:09:00
In 15,000. 01:09:02
$81.00 is for. 01:09:04
Employee related expenses. 01:09:06
To enhance speed enforcement. 01:09:08
And throughout he occurring. 01:09:10
And #2. 01:09:12
Request funding and assistance in the amount of 193. 01:09:13
$1617.00 to purchase. 01:09:16
Unmarked vehicles. 01:09:20
Adopt resolution number 260404. 01:09:21
And authorize the Chairman's signature on the certification form. 01:09:25
All of which are components of the grant application. 01:09:29
Again, this is something that we've used GOHS or Governor's Office of Hwy. Safety funds over the last few years to purchase 01:09:34
equipment, everything from. 01:09:38
Lidar speed measurement guns to other. 01:09:42
Equipment such as this. 01:09:46
The overtime component is good. We have deputies that will actually be able to come in. 01:09:47
Outside of their normally scheduled shift and focus on doing traffic enforcement in areas where we've determined we might have. 01:09:53
An issue with speed. 01:09:59
Complaints or DUI drivers? 01:10:01
What this fund will do will allow us to continue to do what? 01:10:04
We've had a great measure of success with this past year. 01:10:08
The unmarked cars that this references to I was asked to. 01:10:12
Clarified what we're looking at is what's called the ghost marked vehicle. Some of you may have seen we've got a couple of green 01:10:17
ones right now running around the county that. 01:10:21
At first glance, the untrained eye might not realize it's a. 01:10:25
A vehicle that's one of ours, but. 01:10:28
When you look at it closely or at night, if you hit it with that reflective. 01:10:31
Marking on it, you can see that it is in fact. 01:10:34
A fully marked vehicle, but it's just kind of subdued because the. 01:10:38
Markings are similar. 01:10:42
To the color of what the vehicle is. 01:10:43
OK, Supervisor Humphrey. 01:10:46
I have no questions. 01:10:50
I'm good. 01:10:52
Now the only question I have is not related to you at all is why do we have to vote on? 01:10:55
A grant submission. 01:11:00
For application I don't know why we would have to. 01:11:02
Vote on that. 01:11:05
I don't know why we can't just vote on. 01:11:06
The receiving of the grant. 01:11:08
We can certainly do that. 01:11:12
Typically we bring to you. 01:11:14
Grants that if there's a matching component. 01:11:17
Because that would require that one. 01:11:19
You know, but we still have to approve the final one. 01:11:22
OK, so. 01:11:26
OK, so this is a formality that we could. 01:11:28
Forego if there is no. 01:11:31
Matching component we certainly could. 01:11:36
OK. Thank you. 01:11:38
With that I will call for a motion. 01:11:40
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to ratify the Board of Supervisors approval. 01:11:42
For the Sheriff's Office electronic submission. 01:11:46
Of two. 01:11:49
FFY 2027 grant applications to the Governor's Office of Hwy. Safety for law enforcement projects. 01:11:51
The first request funding assistance to provide overtime in the amount of 75,000. 01:11:59
$725.00, of which 60,000. 01:12:06
$644.00 is for personnel and 15,000. 01:12:10
$81.00 is for ERE. 01:12:14
Employee related expenses. 01:12:17
To enhance speed enforcement throughout the county. 01:12:20
Second one is to request funding assistance in the amount of. 01:12:23
$193,617.00 to purchase 2. 01:12:27
Unmarked vehicles adopt resolution number. 01:12:32
26-04-04. 01:12:35
And authorize the chairman's signature on the certification. 01:12:39
Certification form, all of which are components. 01:12:42
For the grant applications. 01:12:45
That's a nice motion. 01:12:48
The following, Mr. Chair, before a second that yeah, I. 01:12:50
I like to know. 01:12:54
Are being put in for to ask questions before all of a sudden. 01:12:56
We're voting on accepting one and. 01:13:00
Didn't know it was coming. 01:13:02
But with that said. 01:13:04
I will second. 01:13:06
Supervisor Klein Potion. 01:13:07
OK, we have a motion in a second to approve. Those in favor say aye. 01:13:09
Aye, aye. 01:13:12
Thank you. 01:13:13
And so with the comments, I would say that let's go ahead and. 01:13:14
Keep doing it as we have been doing it. 01:13:18
Thank you. 01:13:21

Gila County and the Gila County Board of Supervisors obviously are the biggest. 01:22:39
Stakeholders in that entire. 01:22:44

Way of saying that we're all pulling the old proverbial plow to make. 01:22:48

To contract number 012023 with D2 surveying. 01:23:46
LLC for professional on call. 01:23:51
Land, umm. 01:23:53
Surveyor services extending. 01:23:55
The term of the contract through April 17th. 01:23:57
20271 No charge to the maximum compensation of. 01:23:59
$100,000 annually. 01:24:03
We have met with us and I see we also have. 01:24:05
Tom, Yes, that's correct, Mr. Chairman. 01:24:08
Good morning, Mr. Chairman, Supervisor Humphrey, Supervisor Klein, thanks for the time. This item is is being brought to you as 01:24:11
the third and final amendment. 01:24:15
To the renewal of the contractor agreement that we have with D2 Surveying Services. 01:24:19
D2 Surveying provides some assistance for us if there are projects that we can't get to if our staff is overloaded and so they 01:24:24
they help out on on an as needed basis through the. 01:24:30
Our RFQ process and they were selected for the contract. 01:24:35
This says that. 01:24:40
It will have no change to the maximum compensation of the 100,000 years annually. 01:24:41
Typically we don't see that like for instance last year that we only spent or would have spent about $32,000 for this. Some of 01:24:47
that $32,000 was was from the NRCS projects. 01:24:52
So this is just to provide some additional. 01:24:58
Resources in the event that our staff is is unavailable to. 01:25:00
So you get some survey done. 01:25:04
Happy to answer any questions. OK. Thank you, Supervisor Humphrey. 01:25:06
A question for the Klein. 01:25:10
I'm good, thank you. 01:25:12
OK, very good. I'll call for a motion. 01:25:13
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve. Amendment #3. 01:25:15

Contract number Ctr. 058876. 01:25:39
With Kimberly Horn and Association. 01:25:43

The Braddock. 01:25:50
Castle Dome and 8:24. 01:25:52
Environmental documents extending the term of the contract through December 31st, 2026. 01:25:55
With no modification to the contract amount. 01:26:00
Matt, thank you. This this event, this item is is for the environmental. 01:26:03
Documents uh. 01:26:10
For for the materials that we have used the material pits for. 01:26:11
For gravel, for our roads, for for backfill. 01:26:15
For some of the things that we have and the Braddock Bramer, the Castle Dominique. 01:26:17
824 pits or pits that we use to get that material from as part of that when we're looking at expanding. 01:26:21
We have to do environmental assessments on the on the surrounding areas. 01:26:27
Kimberly Horn was selected. 01:26:32
With that, to provide those services for us, there's no change to the contract amounts, just extending the contract. 01:26:33
Through December of 2046. 01:26:40
OK. Thanks, Matt. 01:26:41
Supervisor Hoof. 01:26:43
Just one question, are we looking to? 01:26:44
In the future to come up with some more. 01:26:48
Material pits. 01:26:51
We are. 01:26:52
But but those are still. 01:26:53
In very preliminary stages at this point. 01:26:55
OK. Thank you. 01:26:59
Supervisor client. 01:27:01
Where does 824 at? 01:27:03
I'll just refer to Tom. 01:27:05
Where's the Where's 824? 01:27:07
Can be messed up on messed up by Young Rd. 01:27:10
OK, Bowl Springs. 01:27:15
OK. So another question is if we have more pits in the? 01:27:18
In the works. 01:27:22
You know that we're looking at. 01:27:23
That may be getting. 01:27:25
Finalized and done. 01:27:27
When are those going to come to the forefront so we can get those started? 01:27:29
We at this point, I can't answer that because it's still so preliminary and. 01:27:33
On where we're looking, it could be anywhere from. 01:27:38
18 months to two years before we get the environmental clearance and everything for it. 01:27:41
So OK, but. 01:27:46
And that's not, that's not. 01:27:49
These pits here correct? These are already. These are already. 01:27:50
Here and it's the the environmental documents. 01:27:54
If we were to expand the footprint of those of those pits. 01:27:57
The county works very slowly. 01:28:02
And so when you tell me up to two years, I'm thinking 4 to 6. 01:28:04
But what I really see is that. 01:28:09
Pits are a. 01:28:11
A must. 01:28:13
Or Rd. departments. 01:28:14
And a lot of times they have to travel so far from 1:00. 01:28:16
Where they're working, it's not feasible, whereas if we had a pit to cut that distance way down. 01:28:20
Especially now with diesel $6 a gallon. 01:28:26
Umm, so. 01:28:29
I just hoping maybe they'll come to the forefront sooner than later. 01:28:32
We can certainly look and see what we can do to move those forwards to more. 01:28:35
Strategic locations more central to our. 01:28:39
To our operations. 01:28:42
These have been in the works now for. 01:28:43
For a while. 01:28:46
And we're going to. 01:28:50
Wrap them up. 01:28:51
In December, December 31st is what you're thinking. 01:28:52
That's that's not. 01:28:55
To say that we'll stop using them, that's just to. 01:28:57
For Kimberly Horn. 01:28:59
To provide the environmental clearances for those, we'll continue to still use those pits even beyond December 2026. Yeah, 824 is 01:29:01
a new one. 01:29:05
Pretty much. 01:29:09
And so the sooner we can get those up too, the better off we're going to be. 01:29:10
Thank you. 01:29:15
Thank you, Matt. 01:29:17
A corporal motion. 01:29:19

2020. 01:30:07
7 Mac. 01:30:09
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Supervisors. 01:30:10
And this one, as you know, we're working towards the the chip seal of Gibson Ranch Road. 1 of the requirements with that is we 01:30:12
have to have an on site archaeological monitor for any archaeological sites. And so Devlin Associates is the. 01:30:19
Contractor that's been awarded for that or recommended for that and and so we would just ask that you. 01:30:26
Consider this so that we can have. 01:30:32
The archaeological monitor on site. 01:30:34
In the event that that we need to address any archaeological sites on Gibson Retro. 01:30:36
Thank you, Supervisor Humphrey. No questions. 01:30:43
By the client. It's kind of like kind of biologist on site at the bridge first. 01:30:45
It's just the way we spend money. 01:30:51
And we have no choice. I mean, that's just part of the requirement. 01:30:53
So thank you. 01:30:56
Yeah, unfortunately, I mean, we're just improving an existing mode. 01:30:58
Are we gonna run into? 01:31:01
Other archaeological sites. 01:31:03
That's not really for you, Dan. 01:31:04
Anyway, yeah, let's just do the whole it's just 100 grand, no big deal. 01:31:07
So. 01:31:11
In a way with that, I'll call for a motion. 01:31:12
Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve contract number FY24 Dash PW-04. 01:31:14

After the 2nd to approve, those in favor say aye. 01:31:29
Aye, aye, aye. 01:31:31
Thank you. And maybe just that if I get out of footnote. 01:31:32
That's just not to exceed amount. If we don't need the archaeological monitor on site, then we won't spend that. 01:31:35
OK. Thank you. 01:31:40
Thank you for that clarification. 01:31:41
I feel much better. 01:31:43
Thank you, Matt. 01:31:45
We managed to make it through the whole list here. 01:31:46

I'd like to talk about 1. I don't know that we need to pull it. 01:32:01
I just want to show appreciation for. 01:32:04
Mr. Shelby Borrowdale. 01:32:08
To be willing. 01:32:10
To take the place of. 01:32:11
Mr. Scott Spencer on our Healing county. 01:32:14
Planning and Zoning Commission. 01:32:17
He's a local general contractor. 01:32:19
He's serving on our idea as well as now he's. 01:32:22
I think he's going to leave that now that. 01:32:26
He has chosen to. 01:32:28
Beyond the Planning and Zoning Commission. 01:32:30
And I just want to cover. 01:32:33
We thank him for. 01:32:34
Is time to. 01:32:36
Help us with. 01:32:38
Planning and zoning. 01:32:39

All right. Thank you, Lisa. 01:33:19
Yeah, I. 01:33:21
Cassandra, no Anyone here in Globe that wishes to speak to Borno? 01:33:23
Item number 8 as our current events of. 01:33:28
Management lo. 01:33:31
Mr. Chairman last week attended through the Arizona Commerce Authority. 01:33:33
A re. 01:33:38
Forming of the. 01:33:43
The Opportunity Zones. 01:33:44
But after that, I think in the past couple of big problems that we've had. 01:33:46
But having opportunities on money and rural is that. 01:33:50
The investors, they go out and get investors to put money into. 01:33:54
Potential projects. 01:33:59
That money all went to. 01:34:00
Essentially Phoenix metropolitan area. 01:34:02
And the Pima County. 01:34:04
And so there was not a lot of money for rural. 01:34:06
Supposedly the investors are telling us now that there is money. 01:34:09
This time around. 01:34:13
For equal opportunity, yeah. 01:34:15
And Opportunity zones. 01:34:17
2.0. 01:34:18
That there is money that is being invested. 01:34:20
This specifically for rural. 01:34:23
We do have a. 01:34:25
The Arizona Commerce Authority. 01:34:26
Opportunity Zones coming to Gila County. 01:34:28
It'll be held in them. 01:34:31
In the Globe Council chambers. 01:34:32
But they'll do a presentation camera discussion. 01:34:35
Of. 01:34:37
Utilizing Opportunity Zones. 01:34:39
I've been told that the governor will consider some changes in the Opportunity Zones. We have no opportunity. 01:34:41
Zones in northern county. 01:34:47
We do have a couple in southern Gila. 01:34:49
A large part of Globe was left out of that, I think incumbent upon us to pursue. 01:34:52
Having the entirety. 01:34:57
This valley called Miami. 01:34:58
Central Heights area. 01:35:00
Declared an opportunity zone. 01:35:02
That it's more utilized fully utilize those opportunities. 01:35:04
Here in this area. 01:35:07
Particularly with the flooding that's gone on. 01:35:08
So that'll be in a couple weeks. 01:35:11
And look forward to having that discussion. 01:35:13
I'll be here Friday down in the valley at the county managers and administrators. 01:35:16

Which we're all there. 01:36:36
This is a really good turn. 01:36:38
Yesterday I was on KMOG. 01:36:40
On Saturday this coming Saturday, I'll be judging at the 4H beef cook off at the fairgrounds. 01:36:42
And then I will also be at the Lincoln Day dinner Friday. 01:36:49
Thank you, Supervisor. 01:36:54
Yes, I attended Jake Garrett's memorial. 01:36:58
Spoke a few words at all. 01:37:02
And. 01:37:03
Was very well attended by. 01:37:04
He has a big family, lots of friends, lots of people there. 01:37:06
Filled up the room. 01:37:10
Was very nice. 01:37:11
He was very loved. 01:37:13
And one of our best employees. 01:37:16
And we have a lot of really good employees. Jake was very special. 01:37:18
And so it was good to. 01:37:24
Be able to participate in That was also at the Veterans Coffee time last Tuesday. 01:37:26
At the groundbreaking, we were all there. 01:37:33
I also met last week with Randy and Kim. 01:37:37
With community development and we had a good long meeting about. 01:37:43
Different things that they're working on. 01:37:47
And I also will be at the Lincoln Day. 01:37:49
Dinner this coming Friday. 01:37:52
So that's all I have for my. 01:37:54
And we're going to start something new today. We'll continue with it. Item number 9 here. 01:37:57
Is a request for future agenda items. This would be something that the board members. 01:38:02
Will be able to speak up and utilize this. 01:38:07
In the agenda. 01:38:11
Anything that they would like. 01:38:12
See on a future agenda. 01:38:13
You can propose whatever that is, it's still sort of the discretion of the chairman. 01:38:16
How that proceeds, but it's a better communication. 01:38:22
Avenue, I think to help us to understand. 01:38:26
What each member? 01:38:30
Is wanting to. 01:38:31
Look at. 01:38:33
Without us having to break open meeting laws. 01:38:34
To communicate that. 01:38:37
So it's just as a smoother easier. 01:38:39
Transitional way of doing that I think. 01:38:41
So. 01:38:44
Communication is very important, and this is. 01:38:45
One of those. So I'll reach out to the supervisors now to see if they have anything. 01:38:48
That they would like Supervisor Hunter. 01:38:52
Yeah, this is a. 01:38:55
I think this is a lot better method than going to the podium. 01:38:57
I think I think so, yes, I I think that. 01:39:00
I think if it will work but. 01:39:03
Yes, there is a couple things I would like a. 01:39:05
Work session on our 220 day projects, Where we at with them, How they're going? 01:39:08
What's going on? What you know where we're at with those? 01:39:14
An update perhaps on a work session. 01:39:18
And also to. 01:39:20
Our landfill expansion. 01:39:23
You know where where we at with that? What what's it's going? You know what's the life of our. 01:39:26
Where you know, how close are we to fill in ours before? 01:39:31
That expansion is really necessary. 01:39:35
Kind of just updated on on those. 01:39:38
Projects I would appreciate. 01:39:41
Thank you, supervisor. Supervisor Klein. 01:39:46
Tim, are you talking about doing that all under the? 01:39:49
Work session. I don't know if I can. Well, I I think the thing of it is, is is. 01:39:51
They're probably going to. 01:39:56
Need to be two different items. 01:39:58
I don't know how you could discuss both of them at the same time without. 01:40:00
Getting confused. 01:40:04
But but those are. 01:40:06
Those are interests of mine that I would like to have a work session. 01:40:08
On SO your first one on the 220 days. 01:40:11
Just a brief. 01:40:16
You know, briefing on our turn. 01:40:17
20 day project is good. 01:40:19
That's a That's a good one. I. 01:40:21
I was thinking the same thing. 01:40:23
The landfills. 01:40:24
Public works? Maybe in general? 01:40:28
Whether that's staffing, equipment, whatever it is. 01:40:31
I'd like to make sure that's added in with your with your other one that you. 01:40:33
Throughout there. 01:40:38
Oh, on the. 01:40:40
Landfill expansion updates and management. 01:40:42
Landfill I. 01:40:44
Not only expansions. Well. 01:40:46
And expand operations and part of it, but operations, everything else will be out with them. 01:40:48
OK, you know, how's that setting and some of that's going to come out in this. 01:40:55
220 Day. 01:41:00
NRCS. 01:41:02
Projects too, because. 01:41:04
There's a part of the landfills where we have a ton of material. 01:41:05
To move. So I see that coming up. 01:41:09
And Joe, you're going to shut me down. 01:41:11
Yes, yes, Sir. Mr. Chairman, members of the Board, this is meant to to allow. 01:41:13
Individual supervisors who suggest future items. 01:41:19
Not to create a discussion among the supervisors on any particular item. 01:41:22
And so the county attorney's office would ask the board members to keep that in mind. 01:41:27
And suggest items for future conditions. 01:41:33
Thank you. 01:41:37
Said OK so I would like a work session on a 220 day project. 01:41:39
Projects we have. 01:41:43
And I'd like to have a work session on the landfill expansions. 01:41:44
And operations and public works in general. 01:41:48
No disrespect, Joe, but I think that's ridiculous. 01:41:52
But. 01:41:56
I I see there were if we can have. 01:41:57
The discussions and have. 01:41:59
Something. 01:42:00
Come together for. 01:42:02
For the good of all us. But if I need to repeat stuff. 01:42:03
Yes, I can. 01:42:06
Thank you. 01:42:08
OK. 01:42:12
Just working our way through. 01:42:13
On my list. 01:42:16
I have. 01:42:18
Regular updates for the 220 day project. 01:42:20
We need to know. 01:42:24
As a board before we reached day 200. 01:42:26
That we've got huge problems. 01:42:29
OK. And I've already spoken with Christine about this. 01:42:31
And so. 01:42:36
She's aware. 01:42:37
Also that we should review those regularly. How are we doing? 01:42:39
Landfill expansion is very important to talk about in the expense of it. 01:42:45
What are we running into there? 01:42:52
So that's a separate. 01:42:54
Study a separate line item. 01:42:56
I would like to also see a facilities. 01:42:59
Update. 01:43:02
On all the various projects that we have going on. 01:43:04
Through facilities. 01:43:07
OK, not that. 01:43:09
I'm suspicious about anything, but I just need to know. 01:43:12
Where are we? 01:43:15
With this project and that project. 01:43:16
Community Development. 01:43:22
I had a long meeting with. 01:43:24
Umm, Randy and PM. 01:43:27
Community development is. 01:43:29
Because they have a lot of employees, but it's a very, very. 01:43:33
Important aspect of the county. 01:43:36
And I feel that the county is growing, especially in certain pockets like. 01:43:39
Young or tunnel Basin, it's going to have an impact. 01:43:44
We need to have a work session on the. 01:43:49
Of community development. The successes or the failings or the timelines or the. 01:43:52
Fees and all of the. 01:43:58
Different things that we're going to have to deal with. 01:44:00
With regard to or. 01:44:03
Our fee schedule and also our. 01:44:07
The words not coming to me the. 01:44:12
The various zoning. 01:44:15
Issues that we have and also. 01:44:16
Our ordinance with regard to what we're adopting. 01:44:19
And what? 01:44:23
We think about all that. So that's a, that's an important work session there. 01:44:25
I think and then also. 01:44:28
We've spoken about this before. 01:44:32
And I'll mention it again, we need to have soon. 01:44:34
Some specifics on how are we going to pay for this bond. 01:44:39
Whether we take out. 01:44:43
This amount, another amount or whatever. 01:44:44
What would it mean if we tried to monetize our flood? 01:44:49
District, I know that's raising taxes. 01:44:52
And what that looks like. 01:44:55
If we did monetize it. 01:44:58
What would be some suggestions? Things like that? 01:45:00
I think it's better that we know the answers. 01:45:03
Rather than avoid the question. 01:45:07
We need to know everything. 01:45:09
That we have as a tool. 01:45:12
And help us, I see that the loan, the bond, whatever. 01:45:14
Is going to impact us. 01:45:18
1,000,000 or 2 million per year. 01:45:20
Possibly. 01:45:23
And that's significant when? 01:45:24
We don't, in my mind, have that kind of extra. 01:45:27
So I'd like to know. 01:45:29
What we have in our reserves. 01:45:31
I actually don't have a figure in my head on. 01:45:33
What we have, that's money in reserve. 01:45:36
Whether it's money. 01:45:39
Or whether it's other. 01:45:41
Money. So I would like to be more informed. 01:45:42
Of our financial. 01:45:46
Of health, OK. So that's a long list. 01:45:48
We got them. We're not going to do it all in one meeting. 01:45:51
But I'd like to see those in the future, and we may add to that list next. 01:45:54
So I think it's great that the board. 01:45:58
Has this ability to communicate what we want. 01:46:02
To see. 01:46:06
And be more interactive in it. 01:46:08
And that's all I have today. 01:46:11
So if there's nothing else, I will adjourn our meeting. Thank you. 01:46:13
