WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.459
then they locked them in there.

00:00:01.459 --> 00:00:03.299
And they said, if anyone has found it on the streets

00:00:03.299 --> 00:00:05.459
until the evacuation, they would arrest him

00:00:05.459 --> 00:00:06.459
and take him to jail.

00:00:08.259 --> 00:00:09.099
Yes.

00:00:09.099 --> 00:00:09.919
We're good.

00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:10.759
Okay.

00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:12.839
It's 6.30.

00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:14.240
So we'll call the meeting of planning

00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:16.280
and development committee to order.

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:19.780
So we'd like to order a prayer.

00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:20.620
Thank you.

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.059
Heavenly Father, we humbly come to you tonight

00:00:24.059 --> 00:00:27.140
to ask you to bless this meeting

00:00:27.140 --> 00:00:30.739
and thank you, Father, for all committed people here

00:00:30.739 --> 00:00:33.380
that are here to do the best work we can

00:00:33.380 --> 00:00:35.259
for students in county.

00:00:35.259 --> 00:00:38.619
Thank you for the rain and nice weather.

00:00:38.619 --> 00:00:40.380
In Jesus' name, amen.

00:00:42.060 --> 00:00:43.340
I would know if Brian's not here

00:00:43.340 --> 00:00:44.380
because he hurt his back.

00:00:44.380 --> 00:00:45.579
So otherwise he'd be here.

00:00:45.579 --> 00:00:48.020
Okay, well, there is maintenance.

00:00:48.020 --> 00:00:50.020
Well, he said he was flat on his back.

00:00:50.020 --> 00:00:50.859
Okay.

00:00:50.859 --> 00:00:58.859
With that entertain a motion to approve the agenda.

00:00:58.859 --> 00:00:59.859
Second.

00:00:59.859 --> 00:01:01.859
Second by Baker.

00:01:01.859 --> 00:01:02.859
All in favor?

00:01:02.859 --> 00:01:03.859
Aye.

00:01:03.859 --> 00:01:04.859
Any opposed?

00:01:04.859 --> 00:01:06.859
Motion carries.

00:01:06.859 --> 00:01:10.859
A review of minutes from June 28.

00:01:10.859 --> 00:01:11.859
Motion to approve.

00:01:11.859 --> 00:01:12.859
Motion to second.

00:01:12.859 --> 00:01:14.859
Second.

00:01:14.859 --> 00:01:17.859
Any discussion?

00:01:17.859 --> 00:01:18.859
Hearing none.

00:01:18.859 --> 00:01:21.900
All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed?

00:01:23.260 --> 00:01:32.299
Approval carries as well. We have claims tonight totaling $1,489.97.

00:01:34.299 --> 00:01:37.900
Second. Motion and second. Any questions or discussion?

00:01:40.030 --> 00:01:46.670
Hearing none. All in favor of approving claims signify by saying aye. Aye. Any opposed?

00:01:46.670 --> 00:01:49.870
All she cares as well.

00:01:51.629 --> 00:01:54.150
Sam, you have any public comment?

00:01:54.150 --> 00:01:55.829
No, we'll listen in.

00:01:55.829 --> 00:01:57.390
Okay.

00:01:57.390 --> 00:02:00.549
With that, we'll go on to our reports for the meeting.

00:02:00.549 --> 00:02:03.709
We do not have one from Greater Freeport Partnership.

00:02:03.709 --> 00:02:05.030
So the report's a tab.

00:02:05.030 --> 00:02:05.870
It's a tab.

00:02:05.870 --> 00:02:06.709
It went through.

00:02:06.709 --> 00:02:08.150
Yeah.

00:02:08.150 --> 00:02:11.550
Oh, we'll go on to Mrs. Williams.

00:02:11.550 --> 00:02:13.590
All right, I'll make this fast.

00:02:13.590 --> 00:02:14.990
Deposit for the month of June,

00:02:14.990 --> 00:02:27.629
total $4,938.16. Total deposits to date for the general fund are $167,653.26. It was a quiet month.

00:02:29.150 --> 00:02:34.270
We received the no permit list from the assessment office. We issued 10 code violations in the month

00:02:34.270 --> 00:02:39.710
of June. Those were all for no permits. Most of them were the no permit from the no permit list.

00:02:39.710 --> 00:02:42.990
I had five of them come in today already, which was great.

00:02:44.990 --> 00:02:49.069
I should have the information from our building inspector early next week.

00:02:49.069 --> 00:02:53.789
He did go out to all four sites and take photos and write up some things.

00:02:53.789 --> 00:02:55.150
So he'll have the letters to me.

00:02:56.189 --> 00:02:59.949
Nicole performed 12 inspections and I performed nine for the month.

00:02:59.949 --> 00:03:03.789
Nicole and I assisted animal control with packing, moving and helping income and clients

00:03:03.789 --> 00:03:05.870
during their relocation to the new facility.

00:03:06.990 --> 00:03:12.189
We have started process once again of scanning files for property file folder folders

00:03:12.189 --> 00:03:15.789
and others to upload them into our software.

00:03:15.789 --> 00:03:18.189
And I have reached out to greater report partnership

00:03:18.189 --> 00:03:21.069
regarding potential grant funding to support the update

00:03:21.069 --> 00:03:23.590
of the county's 26 year old land use plan.

00:03:23.590 --> 00:03:25.909
Also reached out to Ms. Newcomer

00:03:25.909 --> 00:03:29.370
and she then included Chairman Helms

00:03:29.370 --> 00:03:30.830
to get a meeting scheduled.

00:03:31.870 --> 00:03:35.229
And that's all I have, any questions?

00:03:35.229 --> 00:03:37.050
Sounds like it's been a busy month.

00:03:37.050 --> 00:03:38.789
It was quiet, but it was busy.

00:03:38.789 --> 00:03:39.629
Yeah.

00:03:40.830 --> 00:03:41.669
Mr. Chairman.

00:03:41.669 --> 00:03:44.870
Yes, I'm going to ask a quick question, a serious comment.

00:03:44.870 --> 00:03:46.789
Linda Diddens is back in town.

00:03:46.789 --> 00:03:48.469
Oh, she is.

00:03:48.469 --> 00:03:51.189
Good to have you.

00:03:51.189 --> 00:03:52.229
I tried to call her.

00:03:52.229 --> 00:03:55.870
I know you had some indirect communication.

00:03:55.870 --> 00:03:57.389
Indirect, yeah.

00:03:57.389 --> 00:03:59.069
I don't know if I had to contact her or anything.

00:03:59.069 --> 00:04:03.949
She paid through real estate taxes.

00:04:03.949 --> 00:04:06.949
I don't expect you to know this off the top of your head,

00:04:06.949 --> 00:04:10.710
but roughly, do you know what the liens are, how much?

00:04:10.710 --> 00:04:14.409
60,300 approximately.

00:04:15.930 --> 00:04:16.230
Yes.

00:04:16.230 --> 00:04:20.930
Do you question, do you want me to start sending out letters again?

00:04:20.990 --> 00:04:21.470
Yes, we will.

00:04:23.470 --> 00:04:25.589
There was just a piggyback on it.

00:04:25.589 --> 00:04:29.750
There was a car at that house out on 26th today.

00:04:29.910 --> 00:04:30.790
Windows are open.

00:04:32.350 --> 00:04:35.790
They weren't previous to about a week or so ago.

00:04:36.509 --> 00:04:39.629
I think what I'll do is post it on the door as well.

00:04:39.629 --> 00:04:48.189
if you can get to it put it on the garage door too hopefully if you can get to it yeah okay thank you

00:04:48.189 --> 00:04:54.750
we're some more making a comment piggyback on that if you in Syracuse countyship there's property

00:04:54.750 --> 00:05:03.069
that she's part of that's falling apart Linda is the whole family uh her and Lyle her brother

00:05:03.069 --> 00:05:16.069
It's on the corner of Springfield and Orchards.

00:05:16.069 --> 00:05:20.430
If you want to see the other one that they're part of, that's not in our county, but it's

00:05:20.430 --> 00:05:24.310
right on the county line, right smack in the middle of Baylorville, and stuff's just piling

00:05:24.310 --> 00:05:25.310
up around that too.

00:05:25.310 --> 00:05:26.310
Oh, I know, which one is it?

00:05:26.310 --> 00:05:27.310
I don't know.

00:05:27.310 --> 00:05:28.310
Oh, Saturday.

00:05:28.310 --> 00:05:29.310
Okay.

00:05:29.310 --> 00:05:35.389
So it's not like it's, I don't want to say it, something new anyway.

00:05:35.389 --> 00:05:41.230
And the ones in the city, they're all in a mess as well. And I just don't understand why city doesn't,

00:05:41.230 --> 00:05:46.110
there's no letters on doors there, nothing. So, but I will send out those letters and

00:05:46.110 --> 00:05:48.029
post them to the properties. Thank you.

00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.639
I did not make it to Southern Water District meeting this month, so I won't have any comments

00:05:55.639 --> 00:06:02.639
Thanks on that, so we'll go on to 7.4 and I know Mr. Dizzy has some comments on Recreation's Trail.

00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:17.639
Yeah, they're working on their budget, upcoming budgets, and they would like us to commit to three years of funding $16,500 annually.

00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:27.639
We've previously had an intergovernmental agreement that is no longer in effect, so I'm not really sure how we handle that. Do we do another intergovernmental agreement?

00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:31.639
I would like to have another agreement in place before we contribute.

00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:32.639
Okay.

00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:33.639
Who makes sense?

00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:34.639
Who puts that together?

00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:35.639
Joel?

00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:41.639
No, I think the receiving party should start that process.

00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:42.639
Okay.

00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.639
At least give us an idea of what they're asking for.

00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:46.639
Okay.

00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:50.560
The existing agreements are a good template to use.

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:51.399
Yes.

00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:55.759
It's not broke, so why fix it kind of thing.

00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:57.959
But regardless of what they send us,

00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:01.319
you will look at it, Carl Larson will look at it,

00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:02.560
because make sure it's something

00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:04.360
that we can legally enter into

00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.600
and that you want to enter into.

00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:08.560
Yeah, I'm a little hesitant

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.920
of committing to three years, you know, that's...

00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.160
Well, and to be fair,

00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:46.639
served in your capacity on that board previously and maybe this is no longer the case but previously they did want a multi-year agreement because they planned for grants to go out for a certain number of years and they have to fund those so they want to make sure they've got the funding committed for getting into it but again that may be something that they would answer if you have that question specifically why three years instead of an annual but it's up to you guys. Steve Elbeck is

00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:48.560
was supposed to come to our next meeting.

00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:50.040
He was unavailable today.

00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:53.160
He's planning on coming to next month's meeting

00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:54.759
and discussing this really soon.

00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:56.959
It'd be ideal if they had proposed

00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:00.480
an intergovernmental agreement to Georgia prior to that.

00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:01.399
Okay.

00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.279
Real nice, since we're gonna be starting

00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:06.600
the budget process in another month,

00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:10.360
for her to have that, to have in front of you to consider.

00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.519
Okay, I'll get ahold of Steve and pass that along.

00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.319
and if we get by the end of the month, that'd be great.

00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:19.160
Yeah.

00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:23.759
The only other thing on the trail is Mr. Zimmer

00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:27.920
is renting out bicycles, weather permitting.

00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.279
You have to go to his website to find out where,

00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.480
what location he's at on a given day.

00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:40.039
He does, I think he does Chuddy Crossing and Orangeville.

00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:48.559
Bill, and I think there was one out by the hotel, Block, I think it was Block, I think

00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:53.480
he does those three locations and, you know, the weather's been not real cooperative for

00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:59.519
him, but he's had a lot of interest in, you know, people's stuff, and so you're interested

00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:03.000
in taking a, you know, like a bike ride?

00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:09.190
That big branch get removed out of West Flock or it was shoved up underneath the dock.

00:09:09.190 --> 00:09:11.830
I haven't been able to find my way home, it's just not the ideal for me.

00:09:11.830 --> 00:09:16.389
I think it was, but I had a little bit of a terrified, honestly.

00:09:16.389 --> 00:09:19.389
Thanks. Sorry to hear that.

00:09:19.389 --> 00:09:22.509
I'm going to put them now. That's all I have.

00:09:22.509 --> 00:09:26.950
Very good. So we'll look forward to that next month.

00:09:26.950 --> 00:09:30.990
Oh, Blackhawk Hills.

00:09:30.990 --> 00:09:36.149
There is a short... Oh, I'm so sorry, Sam, that was...

00:09:36.149 --> 00:09:43.149
We don't have a board meeting exactly for them until like the third week of this month, so I don't think it's up to date.

00:09:43.149 --> 00:09:49.149
I will say this, I would like to see, we received a lot of money a while back.

00:09:49.149 --> 00:09:55.149
I would like to see a housing project, and they've been talking about housing and how they've improved.

00:09:55.149 --> 00:09:59.149
And the Lord knows we have lots of banking plots in our communities.

00:09:59.149 --> 00:10:24.000
So, you know, I don't know what we'll do, but I'm going to bring it up that maybe if there's some money to be spent, that they spend some money in our county to maybe jump start a housing project. It would just be good to see a new house get built in the city to go somewhere, but even somewhere. That's my thought. That's something I'll bring up. I'll share it with them.

00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:35.000
I was just going to mention there was a short little update recap attached to the agenda and I believe Mr. Pat, I'm here next month to kind of update, do a report.

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:43.000
Dan Payette? Oh, Payette, I need to hear you. Thank you.

00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:45.000
Okay.

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:52.000
I have nothing to add, so we'll move on. I don't have, we have a report from Mr. Remmers.

00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:58.360
I reached out to him. He's a little behind on the mowing, but he was dealing with some

00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:07.200
illness in the family. And I know he has some work out at the cemetery that he would like

00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:10.720
to propose and get done as well, but.

00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:13.720
And that's the one.

00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:18.059
Yeah, yeah.

00:11:18.059 --> 00:11:34.059
7.8. Just to point your attention to the climate security report for May. If you have any chance to look at it, somebody would like to make comments, Mr. Chairman, if you wanted to.

00:11:34.059 --> 00:11:47.100
Of course the Facebook posts, the company out on Lamb Road across from Anchor Harvey was

00:11:47.100 --> 00:11:48.100
hiring.

00:11:48.100 --> 00:11:58.620
They hired between about $20 an hour, $26 an hour, depending on your experience in Dan

00:11:58.620 --> 00:11:59.620
Fox.

00:11:59.620 --> 00:12:03.460
had to add on there too, so I know about some pretty good jobs.

00:12:04.259 --> 00:12:06.259
You've qualified, so I mean, there's some...

00:12:06.259 --> 00:12:08.819
Oh, and the Titan has openings?

00:12:09.700 --> 00:12:12.259
Well, Titan is, it's sad driving by Titan.

00:12:13.460 --> 00:12:17.139
A whole lot of fires are when I go by, and all I can do is feed.

00:12:18.899 --> 00:12:20.580
They're still making tires, I guess.

00:12:20.580 --> 00:12:21.620
Yes, they are.

00:12:21.620 --> 00:12:22.259
Go ahead.

00:12:22.259 --> 00:12:24.580
And there's a lot of skilled labor positions available.

00:12:26.100 --> 00:12:28.659
Just you have to find a qualified workforce to do it.

00:12:31.029 --> 00:12:39.830
and I mean, Turner's hiring, Snack King's hiring. So there's a lot of places that don't even need

00:12:39.830 --> 00:12:48.870
alternative skills. Right. There's opportunity. Yes. All right. We have no other old business that I

00:12:48.870 --> 00:12:55.509
know of and no new business at this point. So I would entertain a motion to adjourn.

00:12:55.509 --> 00:13:00.509
Burt, Second, All in favor, Aye.

00:13:00.509 --> 00:13:03.509
That motion is yours.

00:13:03.509 --> 00:13:07.840
Okay.

00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:08.840
Sorry about that.
