| OK, I think we got everybody here. It's, uh, silent in the library, so we might as well start. | 00:00:01 | |
| Good to see everyone welcome. I'll call this meeting. | 00:00:07 | |
| Order It is a regular meeting Tuesday, May 12. | 00:00:10 | |
| 10 AM. | 00:00:14 | |
| I've asked. | 00:00:15 | |
| Cassandra to lead us in our Pledge of Allegiance. | 00:00:17 | |
| Pardon me. And after that, Nick Montague. | 00:00:21 | |
| Offer an invocation. | 00:00:23 | |
| Flag of the United States of America. | 00:00:29 | |
| And the Republic for which it stands. | 00:00:32 | |
| One Nation. | 00:00:35 | |
| Under God. | 00:00:36 | |
| Indivisible for. | 00:00:37 | |
| Heavenly Father here included a year time for the last year. | 00:00:45 | |
| And thank you. | 00:00:54 | |
| Thank you. | 00:01:07 | |
| Seated. | 00:01:08 | |
| So it's kind of an unusual situation where we have an outside. | 00:01:13 | |
| Attorney representing the board, but in the case of. | 00:01:19 | |
| Miss Vance, which is at the end of our agenda. | 00:01:23 | |
| It's it's that way. And so today we have on the phone. | 00:01:29 | |
| Rodney and I didn't ever get his last name. | 00:01:33 | |
| So anyway, Rodney is available to us. | 00:01:36 | |
| An attorney. | 00:01:40 | |
| To represent the board, if we have any questions, there's been a request to move. | 00:01:41 | |
| Item 2 I. | 00:01:46 | |
| Forward to the front because they're simply asking for a continuance. | 00:01:48 | |
| Is that what I understand? | 00:01:53 | |
| Now, what would be involved with that? Would if we have any questions we can ask? | 00:01:55 | |
| Otherwise, we just need a motion to do that. | 00:02:00 | |
| Correct. | 00:02:04 | |
| Chairman, member, supervisors, I believe. | 00:02:06 | |
| Mr. Harper has filed a motion. | 00:02:09 | |
| Do you have that? | 00:02:12 | |
| I do. | 00:02:13 | |
| And I don't see him here today. | 00:02:14 | |
| I did let him know. | 00:02:16 | |
| That you guys will be discussing the continuance this morning. | 00:02:18 | |
| Unfortunately, he's not here to make an oral argument, but you do have that motion there. | 00:02:22 | |
| OK, so instead of having a 1:30 meeting today, we're just going to address it right now. | 00:02:26 | |
| Either grant a continuance or not. | 00:02:31 | |
| Correct, Chairman. If you choose not to grant the continuance, then the hearing will proceed at 1:30 today. | 00:02:33 | |
| Thank you. | 00:02:39 | |
| Yes. | 00:02:41 | |
| Heyson, I'm sorry. | 00:02:43 | |
| Thank you. | 00:02:44 | |
| Oh, OK, great. | 00:02:45 | |
| I appreciate that. So supervisor hunt for any questions. | 00:02:48 | |
| No, I have no questions. I appreciate. | 00:02:53 | |
| Everybody working together to help this go forward. | 00:02:56 | |
| And if a continuance is needed, I don't see a problem. | 00:02:58 | |
| OK, Supervisor Klein. | 00:03:02 | |
| No, you don't know what to. | 00:03:04 | |
| OK, so with that then I will call for a motion to. | 00:03:06 | |
| Have item 2 I. | 00:03:10 | |
| Granted a continuance. | 00:03:13 | |
| Go move, Mr. Chair. | 00:03:15 | |
| All right, we have a motion and a second to approve that all those in favor say aye, aye. | 00:03:18 | |
| Aye, OK. Thank you. | 00:03:23 | |
| Thank you, Chairman. | 00:03:26 | |
| Yes, ma'am. | 00:03:28 | |
| Just to. | 00:03:30 | |
| Clarify. | 00:03:31 | |
| I understand that you're granting A continuance, however, there was a request for. | 00:03:32 | |
| Perhaps a 60 day continuance? Is that what the board? | 00:03:37 | |
| Is moving to continue the matter out, it says. | 00:03:41 | |
| In the continuance it says. | 00:03:46 | |
| For a period approximately 60 days. And just to clarify, the Board is in agreement with the 60 day. | 00:03:48 | |
| Supervisor Humphrey. | 00:03:54 | |
| Aye. | 00:03:55 | |
| By the clown? Yep. | 00:03:56 | |
| And I am as well. | 00:03:58 | |
| Thank you. OK, thank you for that. | 00:04:00 | |
| Let's move on to our regular agenda item 2A. | 00:04:04 | |
| Information, discussion, Action to authorize the Treasurer's Office to abate the taxes, interest, and fees. | 00:04:08 | |
| On 51 personal properties and authorized the chairman signature. | 00:04:14 | |
| On each of the related certificates of clearance. | 00:04:19 | |
| Or removal of uncollectible. | 00:04:21 | |
| Personal. | 00:04:24 | |
| Property. Good morning, Monica. | 00:04:25 | |
| Good morning, Mr. Chairman. Supervisors. | 00:04:27 | |
| So yes, this morning I'm here to request to abate 51 certificates of clearance for removal. | 00:04:29 | |
| Uncollectible personal property. | 00:04:35 | |
| The background these 51 certificates for clearance for uncollectible taxes. | 00:04:37 | |
| They are mobile homes that are no longer in Gila County. | 00:04:43 | |
| And have been certified by the Gila County Assessor's Office. | 00:04:46 | |
| And I should also put in there as well as a Sheriff's Office or a deputy. | 00:04:50 | |
| And they are no longer on the tax rolls. | 00:04:54 | |
| And they need to be abated. | 00:04:57 | |
| So the evaluation is the ARS. | 00:04:59 | |
| Statute 42185. | 00:05:02 | |
| 183514. | 00:05:04 | |
| The cost pursuing the statutory Linsdale. | 00:05:07 | |
| And collection procedures or the sale of the lands. | 00:05:10 | |
| Under Article 7 of this chapter. | 00:05:13 | |
| Or the cost of the seizure and the sale personal property. | 00:05:16 | |
| Pursuant to Section 42. | 00:05:19 | |
| 18401. | 00:05:22 | |
| Would equal or exceed the revenue that could be derived. | 00:05:23 | |
| So the ARS 4218. | 00:05:28 | |
| 353 Certificate of removal abatement. | 00:05:31 | |
| Purging the tax record. | 00:05:34 | |
| The penalty and the. | 00:05:36 | |
| Interest for each of these 51 personal properties. | 00:05:38 | |
| There's a. | 00:05:42 | |
| Detailed history and documentation. | 00:05:43 | |
| And no longer on the. | 00:05:47 | |
| Tax roll by the Hilo County Assessors. | 00:05:49 | |
| Thank you, Treasurer, Supervisor Humphrey. | 00:05:51 | |
| Yeah, these are these are mobile homes that. | 00:05:56 | |
| The Sheriff's Office has gone out and. | 00:05:59 | |
| Can't find them? | 00:06:01 | |
| So that's correct. | 00:06:02 | |
| There's now just. | 00:06:03 | |
| Pile of dirt. | 00:06:05 | |
| And some of these I should say. | 00:06:06 | |
| Should not have been on the tax rolls to begin with. There's probably about a dozen. | 00:06:08 | |
| That are on the reservation. | 00:06:13 | |
| Or they're on or used to be, I don't know if they're there now on mezzanine, the casino, so. | 00:06:15 | |
| They are exempt from being on the tax roll. | 00:06:22 | |
| OK, I guess in the future. | 00:06:26 | |
| Is there any way that you I mean, if someone puts a mobile home on a property, could it be tied to the property at some point in | 00:06:28 | |
| time? | 00:06:31 | |
| Or is that that would be a state now. | 00:06:35 | |
| That would be, yes. | 00:06:36 | |
| A state ruling They have the option to either. | 00:06:38 | |
| Have it tied to the. | 00:06:41 | |
| Property. The real properties, they own it, but some of these are on. | 00:06:43 | |
| RV parks or. | 00:06:47 | |
| And they just either demolish it at 2:00 in the morning or. | 00:06:49 | |
| Look it up to a truck and just take it off the property. | 00:06:52 | |
| OK, no further questions. | 00:06:56 | |
| Thank you. | 00:06:57 | |
| Supervisor. Supervisor Klein. | 00:06:59 | |
| I'm good, thank you. | 00:07:01 | |
| Yeah, thanks for helping clean everything up. | 00:07:02 | |
| With that, I'll call for motion. | 00:07:06 | |
| Mr. I. | 00:07:08 | |

| She has submitted A sole bid for the property. | 00:08:20 | |
| And for the board's consideration, if the board accepts Miss Andres's bid, she intends to request the assessor. | 00:08:22 | |
| Combine the. | 00:08:28 | |

| The future provides a fine. | 00:09:02 | |
| You're welcome. Yeah. | 00:09:03 | |
| That'll call promotion. | 00:09:05 | |
| Do we need to include the $300 in the motion? | 00:09:06 | |
| I think so. | 00:09:09 | |
| I don't believe. | 00:09:13 | |
| Like. | 00:09:14 | |
| Let's just do it, OK? | 00:09:15 | |

| Some strengths that were noted were team communication and collaboration. | 00:16:58 | |
| Team commitment with the program and good rapport with. | 00:17:02 | |
| Participants. | 00:17:05 | |
| We also noted. | 00:17:08 | |
| For our drug testing procedures that our drug testing is random and unpredictable, they're conducted at least two times a week. | 00:17:09 | |
| With results back in two days or less. | 00:17:16 | |
| Collections were witnessed directly by the staff. | 00:17:19 | |
| Staff members who collected specimens were trained in appropriate collection protocol. | 00:17:22 | |
| Calls and participants are experienced to have at least. | 00:17:26 | |
| Are expected to have at least 90 days this Friday. | 00:17:29 | |
| Confirmed by drug test before graduation. | 00:17:32 | |
| He also noted our strengths in that the judge and the staff. | 00:17:37 | |
| Effectively respond to participant behavior. | 00:17:40 | |
| To encourage and support. | 00:17:42 | |
| Participants to achieve goals. | 00:17:44 | |
| Relying on incentives. | 00:17:46 | |
| During court, praise is provided to encourage participant success. | 00:17:48 | |
| And the program uses appropriate service adjustments in lieu of sanctions. | 00:17:53 | |
| Some recommendations they had were to expand our eligibility criteria. | 00:18:00 | |
| Increase enrollment. | 00:18:04 | |
| Continue working to get a defense attorney. | 00:18:06 | |
| Right now we don't have one. | 00:18:09 | |
| Continue training the team. | 00:18:11 | |
| And develop orientation and role specific training plans. We all go to training. | 00:18:13 | |
| Continuously. | 00:18:18 | |
| And establish a steering committee. | 00:18:19 | |
| In response. | 00:18:22 | |
| The opioid drug court was expanded to the Healing County Recovery Court. | 00:18:24 | |
| And this program expansion allowed for the program to serve more individuals with substance abuse disorders. | 00:18:29 | |
| Will be placed on probation by the superior. | 00:18:35 | |
| So we're not just dealing with opioids now, we're dealing with. | 00:18:38 | |
| Other substance abuse disorders. | 00:18:42 | |
| Because of all this, we are requesting a proclamation. | 00:18:46 | |
| A proclamation of the Board of Supervisors of Gila County, Arizona, proclaiming the month of May as National Treatment Court Month | 00:18:51 | |
| in Gila County. | 00:18:55 | |
| 2026. | 00:18:59 | |
| Whereas according to all rise treatment courts are the most successful justice system intervention in our nation's history for. | 00:19:00 | |
| Reducing crime. | 00:19:07 | |
| By addressing substance use and mental health disorders. | 00:19:08 | |
| And whereas treatment courts made an average of more than $6000 for every individual they serve. | 00:19:11 | |
| And whereas since 2019. | 00:19:18 | |
| Gila County recovery court and opioid court have served. | 00:19:21 | |
| 50 high need individuals. | 00:19:24 | |
| Providing evidence based treatment interventions and accountability. | 00:19:26 | |
| Through community supervision strategies. | 00:19:30 | |
| And whereas treatment courts provide a range of economic benefits to community. | 00:19:33 | |
| Such as reduced. | 00:19:37 | |
| Costs in court and prison expenditures. | 00:19:38 | |
| Increased tax revenues. Lowered foster care expenses. | 00:19:41 | |
| And decreased costs related to victims. | 00:19:45 | |
| Station and WHEREAS treatment courts annually refer more than 150,000 people to life saving treatment and recovery support | 00:19:48 | |
| services. | 00:19:52 | |
| And whereas according to all rise treatment courts. | 00:19:57 | |
| Specifically, improves substance use and mental health disorder treatment outcomes and prevent fatal overdoses. | 00:20:00 | |
| And whereas treatment courts facilitate community wide partnerships bringing together public safety and public health. | 00:20:06 | |
| And whereas there are now more than 4000 treatment courts nationwide. | 00:20:13 | |
| And whereas. | 00:20:17 | |
| Treatment courts demonstrate. | 00:20:19 | |
| That when one person rises, we all rise. | 00:20:21 | |
| We are requesting that the Gila County Board of Supervisors proclaim the month of May 2026. | 00:20:23 | |
| As National Treatment Court month in Gila County. | 00:20:29 | |

| Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to adopt. | 00:21:39 | |
| Proclamation #2026-04. | 00:21:41 | |
| I will second that. | 00:21:45 | |
| Of a motion and a second to approve, all those in favor say aye. | 00:21:47 | |
| Aye, aye. | 00:21:51 | |
| Thank you all for being here. | 00:21:52 | |
| Appreciate it. | 00:21:54 | |
| Thank you. | 00:21:54 | |
| Keep up the good work. | 00:21:55 | |
| Something we said. | 00:22:14 | |
| Must have been something. | 00:22:18 | |
| Very good. All right. | 00:22:23 | |
| Now let's move back. | 00:22:24 | |
| To our agenda. | 00:22:26 | |
| Item 2F. | 00:22:27 | |
| Information, discussion, Action to authorize the advertisement of invitation for bids number. | 00:22:31 | |
| GILIFB. | 00:22:37 | |
| 2026. | 00:22:40 | |
| Dash 00. | 00:22:42 | |
| Three, it's the annual contract for advertising. | 00:22:43 | |
| Publications and printing. | 00:22:47 | |
| To solicit bids from qualified newspapers for an annual contract. | 00:22:49 | |
| For all advertising. | 00:22:53 | |
| Publications and Printing Reco. | 00:22:56 | |
| Required, uh. | 00:22:58 | |
| To be done. | 00:22:59 | |
| Or made by all departments and elected. | 00:23:00 | |
| Offices of Gila County government. | 00:23:04 | |
| For the period of July 126 through June. | 00:23:07 | |
| 30th, 2027, Good morning. | 00:23:10 | |
| Good morning, Mr. Chair, Good morning, Supervisor Humphrey, Supervisor Klein. | 00:23:14 | |
| Annually we are required by statute. | 00:23:18 | |
| To advertise for our. | 00:23:20 | |
| Newspaper of record. | 00:23:24 | |
| And that is what this is. | 00:23:26 | |
| We look forward to seeing what the bids are. | 00:23:27 | |
| Thank you, Supervisor Humphrey. | 00:23:31 | |
| Yeah, who? Who are you receiving bids from? | 00:23:34 | |
| Well, this is the invitation forbid, so we don't know who we're receiving them from yet. | 00:23:37 | |
| It is required by statute. | 00:23:41 | |
| That the newspaper. | 00:23:43 | |
| The statutory definition of a newspaper of. | 00:23:45 | |
| General Circulation. | 00:23:49 | |
| And then even if someone out of. | 00:23:51 | |
| Out of Globe. | 00:23:56 | |
| Get the contract then. | 00:23:57 | |
| They're still printing to be done. | 00:23:59 | |
| In the county seat. | 00:24:03 | |
| Is that correct? | 00:24:05 | |
| I don't believe a newspaper outside of the. | 00:24:09 | |
| County. No kelling seat. Oh, outside. You just mean outside Globe? OK, I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you meant outside the | 00:24:12 | |
| county. I apologize. | 00:24:16 | |
| Yes, there are publications required in the county seat regardless of the newspaper of record. | 00:24:21 | |
| I'm just wondering if I could be included in the bids. | 00:24:27 | |
| Because sometimes we get double hit. | 00:24:30 | |
| Because we get like if the. | 00:24:32 | |
| Face and paper gets it. Then we still have. | 00:24:35 | |
| In a local. | 00:24:38 | |
| Paper to be in the county seat. | 00:24:39 | |
| Which gives us a double. | 00:24:42 | |
| Charge. | 00:24:45 | |
| For the same information. | 00:24:46 | |
| We can certainly double check that. | 00:24:48 | |
| I thought the. | 00:24:52 | |
| Packet was attached. | 00:24:53 | |
| Here right, we have our request to advertise in our IFB. | 00:24:55 | |
| So we can double check and make sure. | 00:24:58 | |
| That we address that. | 00:25:01 | |
| Thank you. Thank you. | 00:25:04 | |
| That's not, you know, I was just. | 00:25:05 | |
| Just asking. | 00:25:07 | |
| OK, supervised client. | 00:25:09 | |
| I'm good, thank you man. Do we typically print in both papers anyway? | 00:25:10 | |
| It depends on. | 00:25:15 | |
| Printing for example. | 00:25:16 | |
| The Public Information Office. | 00:25:18 | |
| Has its own advertising contract. | 00:25:21 | |
| That's separate from this. This is for the newspaper of records specifically. | 00:25:24 | |
| Now remember, there's some rumblings from the legislature that we're going to be allowed to. | 00:25:29 | |
| Post a lot of stuff on. | 00:25:33 | |
| Internet, uh. | 00:25:35 | |
| On our website at some point. Is that true now? | 00:25:36 | |
| There was a replacement of this, there was legislation. | 00:25:40 | |
| Proposed. | 00:25:45 | |
| My understanding was that it was very limited. | 00:25:47 | |
| What that would affect? | 00:25:49 | |
| And that. | 00:25:52 | |
| Even if. | 00:25:52 | |
| That becomes. | 00:25:54 | |
| The statute that we would still have to do certain things in the newspaper. | 00:25:56 | |
| Directing our constituents. | 00:26:02 | |
| And. | 00:26:04 | |
| Stakeholders. | 00:26:05 | |
| To where on the website they'd be able to find that information so that there was not a disconnect. | 00:26:07 | |
| And here in Gila. | 00:26:13 | |
| I know that. | 00:26:15 | |
| Every time we do a community health. | 00:26:17 | |
| Improvement plan. | 00:26:19 | |
| We find that. | 00:26:21 | |
| Unlike other parts of. | 00:26:23 | |
| Our nation. | 00:26:25 | |
| Here in Gila County, the newspapers, the radio. | 00:26:26 | |
| Are still the top two ways that people get information. | 00:26:30 | |
| So we would always be. | 00:26:34 | |
| Conscientious of that. | 00:26:36 | |
| OK. Thank you, Aaron. | 00:26:37 | |
| McDonald's call for motion. | 00:26:40 | |
| Mr. Chair, I moved to authorize the advertisement invitation for bid number Gil Dash. | 00:26:43 | |
| IFB 2026-003. | 00:26:49 | |
| Annual contract for advertising publications. | 00:26:53 | |
| And printing as presented. | 00:26:57 | |
| Mr. Chair, I'll second. | 00:27:00 | |
| Motion and a second. | 00:27:02 | |
| Approve. Those in favor say aye. | 00:27:03 | |
| Aye, aye. | 00:27:05 | |
| Thank you, Marin. Thank you. | 00:27:06 | |
| Item 2G is information, discussion, action to approve. | 00:27:09 | |
| The intergovernmental agreement IGA 26-0011576-1 between Gila County and Arizona Department of Transportation. | 00:27:13 | |
| For the scope of work and preliminary design of Fossil Creek Rd. | 00:27:22 | |
| From State Route 87 to Rimwood Street. | 00:27:26 | |
| Sidewalk improvement. | 00:27:30 | |
| Project. | 00:27:32 | |
| It sounds interesting, Tom. What do we got here? Good morning, Mr. Chairman and board members. | 00:27:34 | |
| So Hill County would like to build a sidewalk from Fossil Creek Rd. | 00:27:37 | |
| From uh. | 00:27:41 | |
| SR87 to. | 00:27:43 | |
| Believe it's called Rimmel. | 00:27:44 | |
| When would about .8 miles? | 00:27:46 | |
| And so we applied for a transportation alternatives. | 00:27:49 | |
| Through a dot we got accepted for that. | 00:27:53 | |
| Recently. And so there's the IGA that goes with it. | 00:27:56 | |
| So the grant is for. | 00:28:00 | |
| 297,000 dollars 850. | 00:28:03 | |
| And then our estimated cost will be $17,547. | 00:28:07 | |
| So this will cover just the scoping part of the project. | 00:28:12 | |
| So they'll decide how feasible it is, where it should go, how wide it should be, all that. | 00:28:16 | |
| And then we'll we will apply for another grant through Designing construction. | 00:28:21 | |
| OK. So this is just to see the feasibility and? | 00:28:26 | |
| Yes, Sir. And they'll take it to like 30%. | 00:28:29 | |
| Yeah, OK. | 00:28:31 | |
| She's by the hoop hoop. | 00:28:32 | |
| Yeah, I I'm just wondering how safe a sidewalk's gonna be on a. | 00:28:34 | |
| Road to people drive 70 miles an hour. | 00:28:38 | |
| Yeah, it would. So that would follow, sure that they would look at something I, you know. | 00:28:41 | |
| I may have you know I. | 00:28:45 | |
| It just kind of sets off red flags in my mind too. | 00:28:47 | |
| Have somebody. | 00:28:50 | |
| Walking down a. | 00:28:52 | |
| Highway that's 65 and everybody drives 70 or 75 on it anyway. | 00:28:54 | |
| That's all I have. | 00:29:00 | |
| And keeps the provider client. | 00:29:01 | |
| I don't think I have any questions right now, Tom. | 00:29:03 | |
| Thank you. So this is. | 00:29:05 | |
| Not on the highways from the highway on Fossil Creek Rd. | 00:29:07 | |
| Which is about. | 00:29:10 | |
| Well, it's not 65 mile an hour Rd. but. | 00:29:12 | |
| They probably do that anyway. | 00:29:15 | |
| And it goes in all the way to. | 00:29:17 | |
| Would. Now I don't know where that is. Is that close to the mailboxes? | 00:29:19 | |
| You're not close to where Fossil Creek farms. | 00:29:24 | |
| Sandwich. | 00:29:27 | |
| So 0.8 miles. So I think that's just. | 00:29:29 | |
| I'm thinking about it through my head. That sounds about right, about right. So and I think that road there is actually called. | 00:29:33 | |
| Fuller or no? | 00:29:40 | |
| Yeah, that is for OK where we just. | 00:29:41 | |
| Discussed having a. | 00:29:44 | |
| Place for the water department to get their electricity. | 00:29:47 | |
| Yes. | 00:29:50 | |
| So OK. | 00:29:51 | |
| Yeah, I suppose some people would be walking along there so. | 00:29:54 | |
| I think people walk along it now anyway so umm. | 00:29:57 | |
| As they walk down into. | 00:30:00 | |
| To get this is actually in Strawberry. | 00:30:04 | |
| So they walked to get to the commerce. | 00:30:07 | |
| Portion of strawberry because there's. | 00:30:10 | |
| People that lodge along there. | 00:30:12 | |
| Yes, so they can go up and. | 00:30:14 | |
| Have launcher. | 00:30:16 | |
| Type of thing. OK. | 00:30:18 | |
| OK. Thanks for the clarification. So with that, I'll call for a motion. | 00:30:20 | |
| No, Mr. Chair, I'll make the motion to approve IGA 260011576-1. | 00:30:24 | |
| The Arizona Department of Transportation has to be. | 00:30:32 | |
| Mr. Joseph can. | 00:30:35 | |
| Motion in a second to approve. Those in favor say aye. | 00:30:37 | |
| Aye, aye. | 00:30:39 | |
| Thank you, Tom. | 00:30:41 | |
| All right, next, our last item on this category is 2H. | 00:30:42 | |
| Information, discussion, Action to review and approve amendment #1. | 00:30:47 | |
| To contract number 07062025. | 00:30:50 | |
| The Gila County zoning ordinance rewrite. | 00:30:54 | |
| And that's with Logan Simpson extending the contract term from. | 00:30:57 | |
| In 30th 2026 to August 27th. | 00:31:01 | |
| 2027. | 00:31:04 | |
| With no change. | 00:31:05 | |
| To the contract amount. | 00:31:07 | |
| Good morning, Randy. | 00:31:08 | |
| Morning, Sir. | 00:31:09 | |
| So this is just exciting the contract. | 00:31:11 | |
| We got a little bit of slow start. As you know some of you met with the. | 00:31:14 | |
| Logan Simpson to do interviews. | 00:31:18 | |
| We're in that process. We're in the. | 00:31:21 | |
| Part right now where they're reviewing our. | 00:31:23 | |
| Ordinance is seeing. | 00:31:26 | |
| Actually, stop laughing at us. They started reviewing it to come up with changes. | 00:31:29 | |
| So we're right at that part. So it's. | 00:31:33 | |
| We're a little behind. | 00:31:36 | |
| So that's why we went forward and extended the contract. | 00:31:37 | |
| OK. Thank you. Super pleasure. | 00:31:41 | |
| Yeah, I, I, I think. | 00:31:43 | |
| You know they're going to need some time because I I met with them. | 00:31:45 | |
| And and all the supervisors did, but we all have. | 00:31:49 | |
| Different issues so. | 00:31:52 | |
| I'd imagine that it's like herding cats for them while trying to figure out what's going on. So. | 00:31:53 | |
| I think times necessary. | 00:31:59 | |
| And then they're going to do. | 00:32:01 | |
| Public input. | 00:32:03 | |
| Yes, so after. | 00:32:05 | |
| They review our see what the changes that they had from the interviews. | 00:32:06 | |
| And then see which direction we want to go. | 00:32:10 | |
| Then we'll reach out. | 00:32:13 | |
| And they'll set up. | 00:32:15 | |
| Outreach is probably at some of your meetings. | 00:32:18 | |
| And other places so people can get to it. | 00:32:20 | |
| Will always be advertising the newspaper also. | 00:32:23 | |
| Thank you very much. | 00:32:26 | |
| Advisor client. | 00:32:27 | |
| I'm good. | 00:32:29 | |
| I'm good as well. Thank you, Randy. With that, I'll call for a motion. | 00:32:30 | |
| I move to approve amendment #1 to contract number 07062025 with. | 00:32:35 | |
| Logan Simpson as presented. | 00:32:40 | |
| I'll second that motion a second to approve. Those in favor say aye aye. | 00:32:42 | |
| Thank you, Randy. Next item on the list is our consent agenda items. We have items a through. | 00:32:47 | |
| I will point out that a change has been made. | 00:32:55 | |
| Process Item D&E. | 00:32:58 | |
| I requested that Charlotte look into the possibility. | 00:33:01 | |
| Of including everything that our assessor has bring. | 00:33:04 | |
| Bringing to us into a simpler. | 00:33:08 | |
| A venue and apparently she found and discovered that it's OK that we do that on the consent agenda. | 00:33:10 | |
| And that would be items 2 and E on this particular consent. | 00:33:17 | |
| Agenda. | 00:33:22 | |
| Which is the redemption of exemption waivers that we've been. | 00:33:23 | |
| Reviewing UH. | 00:33:26 | |
| So with that, I will ask Supervisor Humphrey if any of the items A through O. | 00:33:27 | |
| You would like to discuss separately and vote on separate. | 00:33:34 | |
| No, I would just like. | 00:33:37 | |
| You know, I thank you for commenting that DNE our waivers. | 00:33:39 | |
| So that the public knows that we are doing quite a few waivers. | 00:33:43 | |
| Yes, we are. | 00:33:48 | |
| And on a consent agenda. | 00:33:49 | |
| It's not discussed. | 00:33:51 | |
| So I just. | 00:33:52 | |
| I think it's important information that everybody know that. | 00:33:54 | |
| We're doing some more. | 00:33:57 | |
| Qualifying waivers, yes. | 00:33:59 | |
| Thank you, Supervisor Klein. | 00:34:02 | |
| I'm good. I'll call for a motion to approve. | 00:34:03 | |
| The consent agenda items AB. | 00:34:06 | |
| Through O. | 00:34:09 | |
| Don't move, Mr. Chair. | 00:34:10 | |
| I'll second it. | 00:34:13 | |
| Motion and a second to approve the consent agenda. All those in favor say aye. | 00:34:14 | |
| Hi, hi, hi. | 00:34:18 | |
| Thank you. Living right along. Doesn't look like we have anyone in Payson. | 00:34:20 | |
| For the call to the public, how about you, Cassandra? Anybody there? | 00:34:25 | |
| No. How many people listened in today? | 00:34:30 | |
| 37 And here in the globe, I'll call for. | 00:34:34 | |
| Call to the public. Anyone wish to address the board at this time? | 00:34:38 | |
| Cool. Let's move on now to our summary of. | 00:34:43 | |
| Current events and I'll turn it over to Manager Menlo. | 00:34:46 | |
| Mr. Chairman, if I could. | 00:34:53 | |
| Matt has presented or given a. | 00:34:56 | |
| Update on the. | 00:34:59 | |
| Response and where we're at on projects. | 00:35:01 | |
| And that if that's OK, if you could. | 00:35:04 | |
| The permission of. | 00:35:06 | |
| Chairman. | 00:35:07 | |
| Glad to hear it. | 00:35:09 | |
| Absolutely. Thank you, Mr. Mandel. | 00:35:10 | |
| Hey is this a work session item? | 00:35:12 | |
| No, it's a report. | 00:35:17 | |
| That Mister Menlove would like to present through Matt. | 00:35:19 | |
| OK, I just want to make it clear that I've asked many times. | 00:35:23 | |
| For updates on projects. | 00:35:28 | |
| And a work session so that we can communicate. | 00:35:30 | |
| When a presentation is made to me, I'm talk. | 00:35:33 | |
| 2 So if you want to do that, Mr. Chairman, I think it's fine. | 00:35:35 | |
| But I'm still gonna ask her. | 00:35:39 | |
| OK, that's Mr. Lemon Festival. Yes, Sir. | 00:35:41 | |
| If I could respond to see right arm but we are planning on the work session. | 00:35:45 | |
| Those are typically once a month and so we're trying to give information. | 00:35:50 | |
| Not only use a board. | 00:35:57 | |
| But for the public as well. | 00:35:58 | |
| Mr. Menlove, do you have a date that you have scheduled the work session for? | 00:36:00 | |
| Work session is on the. | 00:36:05 | |
| Let's see 27. | 00:36:08 | |
| If I yes, I'm sorry to interrupt. | 00:36:12 | |
| Not in deference to. | 00:36:15 | |
| The request. | 00:36:18 | |
| So Matt's presenting today because? | 00:36:19 | |
| Here and then. | 00:36:22 | |
| In deference to supervisors request, we have set up a work session item. | 00:36:24 | |
| Each month. | 00:36:29 | |
| During the scheduled work session. | 00:36:30 | |
| From now until May. | 00:36:33 | |
| Or I'm sorry, now until November. | 00:36:36 | |
| Because uh. Uh. | 00:36:38 | |
| The 220 days for NRCS takes us through October. | 00:36:39 | |
| So we wanted to make sure we have that scheduled and. | 00:36:42 | |
| I'm sorry, we didn't want to add more administrative burden. | 00:36:46 | |
| To our teammates in public works, so. | 00:36:49 | |
| We've got the agenda. | 00:36:52 | |
| For you for work sessions. | 00:36:54 | |
| But they are on the scheduled work session days. Did I misunderstand a supervisor? I'm sorry. | 00:36:57 | |
| No, we'll just see where it goes. | 00:37:02 | |
| OK. So we'll be presenting, I believe it's. | 00:37:05 | |
| The last Tuesday in May. | 00:37:08 | |
| And then went. | 00:37:10 | |
| Each subsequent month during the scheduled work session time. | 00:37:12 | |
| And we look forward to having the information about NRCS projects. | 00:37:16 | |
| That which would be the emergency watershed protection. | 00:37:22 | |
| The projects for. | 00:37:25 | |
| And then also. | 00:37:27 | |
| Any expenditures? | 00:37:29 | |
| And additional questions that you may have will be ready to answer. | 00:37:31 | |
| At that time so that it can be an interactive conversation. | 00:37:35 | |
| Thank you. | 00:37:39 | |
| Thank you, Mayor, for that so we we can anticipate. | 00:37:40 | |
| The request for work session on this item. | 00:37:44 | |
| Every month. | 00:37:47 | |
| Going forward, the first one will be in May. | 00:37:48 | |
| 27th. | 00:37:51 | |
| And that the report that Matt's going to give us is just. | 00:37:52 | |
| In addition. | 00:37:55 | |
| A supplemental information. | 00:37:57 | |
| Until we get to that point. | 00:38:00 | |
| Correct. And for the reason that. | 00:38:01 | |
| Supervisor Humphrey pointed out. | 00:38:03 | |
| When we're presenting, you don't have the opportunity to. | 00:38:05 | |
| Have the back and forth. | 00:38:09 | |
| Whereas at the work session we will. | 00:38:10 | |
| Yeah, because we can only discuss what's on the agenda, and this is not. | 00:38:12 | |
| OK. So Matt give us. | 00:38:17 | |
| A brief report of where we are. | 00:38:20 | |
| OK. Thank you, supervisors. | 00:38:22 | |
| Appreciate the time that the national. | 00:38:24 | |
| The emergency watershed. | 00:38:27 | |
| Protection. | 00:38:28 | |
| Projects are moving forward. As you know, they're under an accelerated schedule. | 00:38:30 | |
| Without the official 220 day. | 00:38:35 | |
| Performance period began on March 16th. | 00:38:37 | |
| 2026. | 00:38:40 | |
| A month and a half ago so. | 00:38:42 | |
| Moving forward with that. | 00:38:43 | |
| However we do, we are making progress with that. | 00:38:45 | |
| The projects that we're working on. | 00:38:48 | |
| Actively right now, our Copper Hills project. | 00:38:50 | |
| The Ice House Canyon project. The 606 Shooter Canyon project. | 00:38:53 | |
| And then Russell project. | 00:38:57 | |
| With the Copper Hills project, we have final drainage. | 00:38:59 | |
| Drainage easements were being secured with. | 00:39:02 | |
| With the mind, the BHP mind. | 00:39:04 | |
| The 90% package has been. | 00:39:07 | |
| Submitted to NRCS for their final review on this and all of the other projects. | 00:39:09 | |
| We haven't gotten any comments back from NRCS yet on the. | 00:39:14 | |
| 90% plans. | 00:39:18 | |
| However, we have been moving forward also. | 00:39:20 | |
| With the. | 00:39:23 | |
| Environmental and cultural clearances. | 00:39:24 | |
| And the archaeological clearances, we have received those as well as we're. | 00:39:26 | |
| We're clear to move forward with the. | 00:39:30 | |
| With the. | 00:39:33 | |
| Projects that we have in those areas. | 00:39:33 | |
| Related to this also is is the flood management debris, the the flood household debris. | 00:39:37 | |
| That was being removed from. | 00:39:42 | |
| Russell Gulch Landfill. | 00:39:44 | |
| And that should be done by the end of next week. | 00:39:46 | |
| We've had a few. | 00:39:49 | |
| Hiccups in that in removing the material we've had. | 00:39:50 | |
| Spells of gasoline. | 00:39:54 | |
| In onto the dirt, we were able to successfully remediate those spills. We've had two of them so far. One was about two gallons. | 00:39:55 | |
| The one that we had just recently was was 1 gallon, but it was smaller than that and. | 00:40:03 | |
| The original 1 The original one we submitted our. | 00:40:08 | |
| Mitigation plan to. | 00:40:12 | |
| The state agencies, they were in agreeance with that. | 00:40:14 | |
| And so they've given us the approval to move forward with the same in the same way. | 00:40:17 | |
| With this recent spill that we've had. | 00:40:22 | |
| As far as the. | 00:40:24 | |
| The safeware contracts. | 00:40:25 | |
| As you know, that's also part of the. | 00:40:27 | |
| Flood management and flood mitigation. | 00:40:30 | |
| The flex mat. | 00:40:32 | |
| The removal of the flex mat. | 00:40:34 | |
| Has been completed. It's ahead of schedule. It's under budget. | 00:40:36 | |
| It was completed yesterday. | 00:40:39 | |
| Called off all of that material that was. | 00:40:41 | |
| Removed with the with the September and October flood events. | 00:40:45 | |
| The hospital drive. | 00:40:49 | |
| That it's it's saying they're starting it today. | 00:40:50 | |
| We should. We expect that to be completed within a week. So we are moving forward with these. | 00:40:53 | |
| With these projects while under the 220 day timeframes. | 00:40:58 | |
| Thank you, Matt. | 00:41:02 | |
| And that report will look forward to the work session on. | 00:41:03 | |
| It's May 26. | 00:41:06 | |
| 26 two weeks from today, yes. | 00:41:08 | |
| And we'll have a much more. | 00:41:10 | |
| Detailed presentation. | 00:41:12 | |
| We have. | 00:41:14 | |
| These are. | 00:41:16 | |
| Fast moving projects. We'll have more updates with that as as the. | 00:41:17 | |
| As we move along with that. | 00:41:21 | |
| I'm sure we'll have plenty of questions at that time. | 00:41:22 | |
| Will you include some of this in your 27th presentation where we can ask questions? | 00:41:24 | |
| Absolutely. Thank you. | 00:41:29 | |
| Yes, thank you. | 00:41:31 | |
| That's May 26. | 00:41:32 | |
| Two weeks from today. | 00:41:34 | |
| Mr. Menlove, Anything else? | 00:41:35 | |
| Also. | 00:41:37 | |
| Have participated in three of ADOT are listening tours where they've gone to Connell Basin to Young. | 00:41:40 | |
| Yesterday in Globe. | 00:41:46 | |
| They are one. | 00:41:48 | |
| More listening tour. | 00:41:50 | |
| Discussion in Payson in early June. | 00:41:54 | |
| I don't have the exact. | 00:41:57 | |
| But the question was posed or. | 00:41:59 | |
| About the Lion Springs Project. | 00:42:01 | |
| And Mr. Goodman reports. | 00:42:03 | |
| Reported yesterday that the Lion Springs was awarded to Ames. | 00:42:05 | |
| Construction for 76.2 million. | 00:42:09 | |
| For project cost is 109 million. | 00:42:12 | |
| And that includes design and contract administration, by the way, and all those different things. | 00:42:15 | |
| So 109 million projects and. | 00:42:21 | |
| $1,000,000 Project in Northern. | 00:42:23 | |
| Beulah County. | 00:42:25 | |
| According to Adopt, the Four Mile project will widen the highway. | 00:42:26 | |
| Orleans add 3 wildlife crossings and help eliminate major weekend traffic. | 00:42:29 | |
| Linux work should begin in June 2026, so next month. | 00:42:34 | |
| And that it will. | 00:42:38 | |
| Approximately 2.5 years. | 00:42:39 | |
| So end of 2028. | 00:42:42 | |
| When that is expected to be completed. | 00:42:44 | |
| I think that's my report, Mr. Chairman. | 00:42:48 | |
| A long time coming for that. Thank you, Mr. Menlo. | 00:42:50 | |
| Roger Humphrey I'd like to read a letter I received and I don't know why it came to me, but it did. | 00:42:53 | |
| And it is from. | 00:43:00 | |
| County Historical Museum. | 00:43:02 | |
| From Bob Bondo. | 00:43:04 | |
| And it says, dear Tim I recently. | 00:43:06 | |
| And I received an e-mail this week. | 00:43:10 | |
| From James Doughty. | 00:43:13 | |
| 3rd A grandson of Jim Dowdy. | 00:43:15 | |
| Who was supervisor? | 00:43:18 | |
| District. | 00:43:20 | |
| 3 for many years inquiring about the time capsule. | 00:43:21 | |
| That his. | 00:43:25 | |
| Father told him was. | 00:43:26 | |
| Placed in the courthouse. I'm not going any further where that is. | 00:43:29 | |
| And, and you know, and it's a decision on July 4th. | 00:43:34 | |
| And it was. | 00:43:39 | |
| Done and. | 00:43:39 | |
| That contained. | 00:43:41 | |
| Among other things, a baby picture of James the Third. | 00:43:43 | |
| He was wondering if there were any plans. | 00:43:47 | |
| To open the time capsule this year. | 00:43:51 | |
| Since July 4th. | 00:43:55 | |
| 2026 will be the 50th. | 00:43:57 | |
| Anniversary of the courthouse. | 00:44:00 | |
| Which, that wouldn't be bad to do a little celebration anyway. Via this courthouse is 50. | 00:44:03 | |
| Years old. | 00:44:07 | |
| And and see what is in this time capsule. | 00:44:09 | |
| I told him that I had heard, I hadn't heard anything about. | 00:44:13 | |
| Opening the time capsule. | 00:44:16 | |
| And didn't know if any. | 00:44:18 | |
| Current county officials. | 00:44:22 | |
| Were even aware. | 00:44:24 | |
| That the time capsule existed. | 00:44:25 | |
| I did some research and found. | 00:44:27 | |
| Attached clippings. | 00:44:31 | |
| From the July 8th, 1976 silver belt. | 00:44:33 | |
| And so anyway. | 00:44:37 | |
| I think it would be a good idea to do maybe a little celebration and open the time capsule. | 00:44:39 | |
| And if that's not something that. | 00:44:43 | |
| The county management or other supervisors aren't interested in. | 00:44:46 | |
| Let me know and I will be happy to get back with Mr. Bugando and. | 00:44:51 | |
| Figure out something, because I think it's important. | 00:44:55 | |
| That this is 50 years old. | 00:44:58 | |
| And and holding. | 00:45:01 | |
| And and I think that something with the time capsule would be. | 00:45:03 | |
| Good for the community as well. | 00:45:08 | |
| And so. | 00:45:10 | |
| That was from Mr. | 00:45:11 | |
| Uganda and and July 4th is. | 00:45:13 | |
| Coming up. | 00:45:16 | |
| So let me know where we go with that. | 00:45:17 | |
| And as far as anything else is. | 00:45:22 | |
| I was on Kmart on May. | 00:45:26 | |
| Held a Tunnel Basin community meeting on the 5th. | 00:45:28 | |
| Will hold a Roosevelt community meeting on the 11th. | 00:45:33 | |
| And that's about all that I have. | 00:45:37 | |
| Chairman, Yeah. Thank you, Supervisor. Supervisor Klein. | 00:45:41 | |
| Well, I had a couple things. | 00:45:45 | |
| I had a meeting with Resolution Copper. | 00:45:47 | |
| The CEO and and Brian? | 00:45:49 | |
| And if you guys remember here, a while back I brought up the fact that they had purchased a lot of property. | 00:45:52 | |
| That the springs and so the. | 00:45:58 | |
| The bottom line with that is they will continue to be managed as individual properties. | 00:46:01 | |
| Paying property taxes to the county. | 00:46:07 | |
| They're not going to be rolled into the overall. | 00:46:09 | |
| Mining works. | 00:46:12 | |
| Which is. | 00:46:13 | |
| Good news. | 00:46:14 | |
| For all of us because there there was a lot of. | 00:46:15 | |
| Property there. | 00:46:17 | |
| Also, they have graciously. | 00:46:19 | |
| Accepted and happy to do so. They're going to. | 00:46:22 | |
| Sponsored a field trip with the Arizona legislatures in November. | 00:46:25 | |
| First part of November and there will be a mine tour and all that. | 00:46:29 | |
| So you're really excited about that? | 00:46:33 | |
| That was good. We had a. | 00:46:35 | |
| Picnic over the weekend On Saturday, the nonprofit put together along with. | 00:46:38 | |
| The local veterans. | 00:46:44 | |
| Group up there. | 00:46:46 | |
| Very successful, a lot of people is there. | 00:46:47 | |
| I think there. | 00:46:50 | |
| But he had a good time, I know. | 00:46:51 | |
| Joseph was there and. | 00:46:53 | |
| Steve, you were there and so and. | 00:46:55 | |
| And lots of folks. | 00:46:58 | |
| Other than that. | 00:46:59 | |
| All I got. | 00:47:01 | |
| Thank you, Supervisor. Yes, I was at the picnic. It was good. | 00:47:02 | |
| A lot of people. | 00:47:08 | |
| And so glad to see that. | 00:47:09 | |
| It's a beautiful facility, it absolutely is. | 00:47:12 | |
| What's interesting Supervisor Humphrey is I graduated 50 years ago. | 00:47:17 | |
| So that's when they buried the time cap. | 00:47:22 | |
| I'm a time capsule. | 00:47:24 | |
| Well, we we won't open you up. | 00:47:29 | |
| 1976 So think of that. It was a time capsule in the bicentennial year. | 00:47:33 | |
| And now we have. | 00:47:38 | |
| I'm sure they have a big name for the 250. It's probably. | 00:47:40 | |
| The bimedial, the sequentia of something rather. | 00:47:43 | |
| And so anyway, yeah, I would agree that we should have a ceremony and open that thing up, see what's in there. | 00:47:48 | |
| Probably a pet rock. | 00:47:56 | |
| All right. | 00:47:58 | |
| I am happy to report that our Public Works department. | 00:48:01 | |
| According to schedule, has been working on the Gibson Ranch Rd. in your district. | 00:48:05 | |
| A lot of work out there. It's coming along. | 00:48:10 | |
| Cemetery Rd. is another Rd. that was. | 00:48:13 | |
| Just absolutely destroyed. Gone. | 00:48:16 | |
| That is now completely finished up in pine. | 00:48:19 | |
| And there's a couple other roads up there I didn't inspect, but they're they're doing well. | 00:48:23 | |
| The trails end. There's a trails end. | 00:48:28 | |
| Trail up in portal three that we wanted to add some parking. | 00:48:31 | |
| Paths and so we've done that. That's a good thing. | 00:48:35 | |
| And so we're moving right along. And the other day I was over at the Hila Community College. | 00:48:38 | |
| They had a ground breaking for the Richard F. | 00:48:43 | |
| Terrace Observatory. | 00:48:47 | |
| And so. | 00:48:49 | |
| This is like a half $1,000,000 project. | 00:48:51 | |
| To in case. | 00:48:54 | |
| Their telescope, which they've already purchased. | 00:48:56 | |
| They did receive money from. | 00:48:59 | |
| Grants and things in order. | 00:49:02 | |
| To do that. | 00:49:04 | |
| And so they anticipate that being done somewhere. | 00:49:05 | |
| October range. | 00:49:08 | |
| And So what that does is it actually opens up additional educational opportunities. | 00:49:10 | |
| For people to come and. | 00:49:15 | |
| Learn about. | 00:49:18 | |
| The stars, whatever. | 00:49:20 | |
| And they also have the ability that when they're looking for things. | 00:49:23 | |
| It somehow. | 00:49:28 | |
| You can connect to that with your computer and watch with them. | 00:49:29 | |
| What they're looking at. | 00:49:33 | |
| So it's kind of cool that way. | 00:49:34 | |
| And it's probably been a month. I think I've mentioned this. | 00:49:36 | |
| Or image I attended a meeting that the town of Payson. | 00:49:40 | |
| Put on. | 00:49:44 | |
| Biochar. | 00:49:45 | |
| And borrow char is an interesting. | 00:49:46 | |
| Way of. | 00:49:49 | |
| Getting rid of some of our. | 00:49:51 | |
| Timber and waste instead of. | 00:49:55 | |
| Turning it into lumber. | 00:49:58 | |
| Or waste. | 00:50:00 | |
| It can be used to create another product called. | 00:50:01 | |
| Biochar this was something that the town. | 00:50:04 | |
| Put on and so I just want to let everybody know. | 00:50:06 | |
| I did attend. | 00:50:10 | |
| And there's. | 00:50:11 | |
| There seems to be some discussion among. | 00:50:13 | |
| People that I'm hearing that the county is agreed to participate in that if you hear that. | 00:50:16 | |
| It's it's not accurate information. | 00:50:22 | |
| I just want to let you know I just. | 00:50:25 | |
| Attended and I said I was interested in hearing more. | 00:50:27 | |
| About it. And so that's kind of where we're at. | 00:50:31 | |
| And so if possible. | 00:50:34 | |
| That someone may want to come and present to the county. | 00:50:36 | |
| The possibility of. | 00:50:39 | |
| Of facilitating. | 00:50:42 | |
| In some way. | 00:50:44 | |
| A biochar facility in the Payson area. | 00:50:46 | |
| So that. | 00:50:49 | |
| I just wanted to make sure that's really clear. | 00:50:50 | |
| Anyway, that's all I have. | 00:50:53 | |
| So unless we have something else. | 00:50:55 | |
| Oh, that's a Jew. | 00:50:58 | |
| Let's not. | 00:51:01 | |
| Let's go to, please. | 00:51:03 | |
| Keep forgetting this one, don't I? | 00:51:05 | |
| Last item request for future agenda item. | 00:51:08 | |
| Thank you for reminding me again. | 00:51:11 | |
| Supervisor Humphrey. | 00:51:13 | |
| Why don't you guys go first maybe? | 00:51:14 | |
| Give me thinking about something that needs to be. | 00:51:16 | |
| OK, on future agenda item. | 00:51:21 | |
| Supervisor Klein. | 00:51:23 | |
| I we put some much out there. I'm good for a while. | 00:51:25 | |
| Yes, we have pushed several items out. Thank you for that. I don't have anything additionally today, but I will say that I have. | 00:51:29 | |
| Tasked Melissa. | 00:51:37 | |
| To create a spreadsheet of all of the requests. | 00:51:39 | |
| And the date of the request. | 00:51:44 | |
| And the. | 00:51:46 | |
| Where the request comes from? | 00:51:48 | |
| OK, so we've got this very nice colorful. | 00:51:50 | |
| Spreadsheet charts. She loves to do those things. I knew she would love to do it. | 00:51:53 | |
| And so we can share that with the other super. | 00:51:57 | |
| Advisors if you'd like. | 00:51:59 | |
| And then she's also got. | 00:52:01 | |
| A category of wind. | 00:52:04 | |
| Those items actually. | 00:52:05 | |
| Or have gone through a work session. | 00:52:07 | |
| So we can kind of keep track of what we're looking forward to. | 00:52:10 | |
| And what has already been? | 00:52:14 | |
| Discussed SO. | 00:52:16 | |
| If the other supervisors would like that, Melissa has that available, would love to share that. | 00:52:18 | |
| Color coordinated. | 00:52:24 | |
| A It's a beautiful thing. | 00:52:26 | |
| So Are you ready, Mr. Humphrey? Yeah, I'd, I'd like a copy of that. | 00:52:29 | |
| OK, and I am ready. | 00:52:33 | |
| I would like a work session. | 00:52:36 | |
| On the land. | 00:52:38 | |
| Feel Russell Golf. | 00:52:39 | |
| Or past. | 00:52:44 | |
| For present. | 00:52:46 | |
| And for future. | 00:52:48 | |
| Information. | 00:52:53 | |
| Also to hear a while back. | 00:52:55 | |
| We did a fee schedule for the PVBR so things could move. | 00:52:59 | |
| Forward and I and we don't have haven't heard what. | 00:53:04 | |
| Forward was or where that went. | 00:53:10 | |
| But you know, Supervisor Klein, you know you had your. | 00:53:12 | |
| Your deal, I think that's fine. | 00:53:16 | |
| But let's update and if the. | 00:53:18 | |
| You know the the nonprofit has a board. | 00:53:21 | |
| We've never met them. | 00:53:26 | |
| So, you know, let's get in touch with. | 00:53:28 | |
| With PBR. | 00:53:32 | |
| And I believe for right now, that will. | 00:53:34 | |
| That will do me. | 00:53:38 | |
| OK, we're going to put you on the list for that. | 00:53:39 | |
| It's very unlikely that I would. | 00:53:44 | |
| As chairman, decide. | 00:53:46 | |
| That I would not. | 00:53:48 | |
| Prefer any of the suggestions to never make it to work session. I don't think that's appropriate, so I don't have any concerns | 00:53:50 | |
| over talking about any of these things. | 00:53:55 | |
| In a future work session. | 00:54:00 | |
| That's how we are informed about things and it's very important so. | 00:54:03 | |
| If that's all we have for. | 00:54:07 | |
| Future agenda items then. | 00:54:09 | |
| Now I'm going to. | 00:54:11 | |
| Adjourn the meeting. Thank you. | 00:54:13 |
