00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.200
Public Works Committee for Students Accountants, Thursday, June 11th, 5 o'clock.

00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:05.679
I'd like to know if they need to order.

00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:09.919
Item 2.0 is the approval of the agenda.

00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:11.359
Do you have a motion to approve it?

00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:12.960
So we'll move over to Mr.

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.200
Marrow, seconded by Mr.

00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:14.759
Jogerst.

00:00:14.759 --> 00:00:15.759
Any discussion?

00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:19.199
Let's not, all those in favor say aye.

00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:20.879
Motion approved.

00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:29.080
Item 4.0, oops, sorry, 3.0 review and approval of the meeting minutes from last

00:00:29.080 --> 00:00:58.079
This month, May 14th, the motion to approve the meeting is in effect, approved by Mr. Jogerst, seconded by Mr. Mayoral. Any discussion? Seeing none, all those in favor? I have. Item 4.0 is the approval of the claims this month. We have $550,915.08. It's a pleasure to have made it.

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:03.079
Second, I have a motion to approve and a second.

00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.500
Any discussion, questions, concerns?

00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:09.879
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:11.120
Aye.

00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:12.280
Option is approved.

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:21.439
I have 5.0 as public comments.

00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:24.439
Is there anyone here tonight who would address the meeting?

00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:52.640
I'm Brian Scott with PIA Transport. I talked to some people out there and I just brought

00:01:52.640 --> 00:02:00.960
some information. What we were trying to do was see if the committee would consider permitting

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:12.000
for our trailers to go in there. Put some stuff together. I have a hand out. And basically,

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:36.680
Basically, just the information from you shows that the difference between a five axle trailer

00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:40.960
and a six axle trailer at 105,000 versus 80,000.

00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:43.760
It's not as drastic as it sounds.

00:02:43.760 --> 00:02:46.300
The weight per square inch per tire

00:02:46.300 --> 00:02:50.879
is not that much different than an 80,000 contract

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:52.960
going down the same roads.

00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:56.680
And the amount of loads hauled

00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:59.840
compared to what we were hauling to what we are hauling

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:03.360
is two to one with all three loads a day now.

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.360
So that's four and before we're at two, maybe two and a half.

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.080
There's not a permit available right now.

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:15.120
There is one available right now, but it's $450 a day.

00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:17.440
Obviously, that's not something that's economical

00:03:19.480 --> 00:03:23.980
for any trucking company to pass along to the farmer

00:03:23.980 --> 00:03:27.040
or the plant that's in your county.

00:03:28.160 --> 00:03:30.800
So I was just hoping that maybe it would be taking

00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:34.600
to make a consideration that I don't know if it would be something that would be possible

00:03:34.600 --> 00:03:41.160
to do individual permits as far as chartering companies in general, rather than offer it

00:03:41.160 --> 00:03:42.160
to everybody.

00:03:42.160 --> 00:03:50.040
Or if it was something that maybe there was an amount of money that wasn't $405 a day

00:03:50.040 --> 00:03:54.400
that would be beneficial for both sides to do that.

00:03:54.400 --> 00:04:24.399
I know there was discussions with this, that it may be put back on the newest or casos plate, but in most places that we permit it goes directly to the Trevi Company itself, because they're the ones responsible for these, but they're going down the road, so this is just my opportunity to put something in front of you to show what the differences are and then it's not as drastic as it sounds, it's not heavy trucks wrecking your guys,

00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:35.399
because we do have more axles that are equivalent to maybe a little bit more but not anything that will be the cause of the damage in our roads.

00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:41.399
So it was just something that I thought I would put in front of you guys that maybe you could consider.

00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:47.399
I don't know if that's how that process works or anything like that.

00:04:47.400 --> 00:05:03.400
Director of Fricke, Minnesota. The idea that you work with the hiring department with Brian and Dale is a very capable answer. And if that's on their judgment, if there's a policy change that we need to look at, then that will come through.

00:05:03.400 --> 00:05:13.400
Yeah, let me look at this over, and we'll put it on the agenda for the next public works to many meetings about whether to do what we can do.

00:05:13.400 --> 00:05:31.680
Anyone else? Moving on to 6.0, it's the Department of Reports and 6.1 is Animal Control.

00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:58.879
All right. So, cat intake for May was 58 total. Out of those 58, 35 were transferred to rescues. Four were adopted. One was reclaimed. It was actually a cat that made it from Stockton in Freeport, hitched a ride on in a vehicle, axle or engine.

00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:28.879
Cider. Five are adaptable currently. We have 11 on hold, which are anything under eight weeks old or pregnant. We have two in foster. And we took 23 dogs in. We have 11 of them were reclaimed. One went to rescue. Ten are on hold, which includes a mom and her nine puppies. And one was adapted. Current animals we have are eight cats that are adaptable,

00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:36.319
12, 13 are on hold, two are in foster, one is boarding still, 24 total, Docs, we have

00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:47.959
five adoptable, two on hold, one foster, and we have eight, I should say we have eight

00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:48.959
at the animal school.

00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:54.939
At the building, we have Stella with her nine babies that were born on Memorial Day.

00:06:54.939 --> 00:06:59.500
She was picked up Thursday before Memorial Day, very right now, obviously, and she had

00:06:59.500 --> 00:07:01.379
them on Memorial Day.

00:07:01.379 --> 00:07:05.379
So they're two weeks old now.

00:07:05.379 --> 00:07:12.779
As far as court cases and your crisis case went for a bench trial, they found them guilty

00:07:12.779 --> 00:07:17.180
for two of the running at large tickets and the rest were not guilty.

00:07:17.180 --> 00:07:21.540
In Mary's case, nothing really happened.

00:07:21.540 --> 00:07:29.580
On the 22nd of May, Iowa County Community Society in Dodgeville pulled seven dogs, eight cats,

00:07:29.580 --> 00:07:33.340
and seven kittens from us, a total of 22 animals.

00:07:33.340 --> 00:07:38.259
Two of the dogs were our long, or I should say three of the dogs were long-term dogs.

00:07:38.259 --> 00:07:45.800
One was with us since January of 26, no, 25.

00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:51.180
The one was the court case, Lil Chihuahua, and the other one was with us since August

00:07:51.180 --> 00:08:21.180
of 25. So out of those dogs, I think they place like five or six animals are favorite. And they're willing to, I basically had a current inventory sheet, I sent it to her kind of like this. And she's like, I highlighted the ones I wanted. I'm like, it would have been easier if you highlighted the ones you didn't want. It was like all yellow. I'm like, I'm for that. So I did transport them. So Louie got to work out, she had 22 animals in her.

00:08:21.180 --> 00:08:44.180
She did good. We got over there. It was fun. As far as the building, I have most of the stuff from the Animal Hospital moved over. As soon as we get internet over there, I will move computers and stuff and I will move the cats over once I'm over there so I can take care of them.

00:08:44.180 --> 00:08:48.660
Right now I'm going over there to take care of mama, obviously, but once we get internet

00:08:48.660 --> 00:08:53.540
and I can actually work out of there, we will move the cats over.

00:08:53.540 --> 00:09:01.120
Kennels, he said they are going to be shipped on Wednesday of next week and he will give

00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:07.780
me a tracking number once that is, I reached out to him because it was like crickets after

00:09:07.780 --> 00:09:14.060
Memorial Day and I'm like, you said you would send me pictures and I've seen nothing.

00:09:14.060 --> 00:09:17.340
He said, oh yeah, they're getting packed, they're ready to go.

00:09:17.340 --> 00:09:20.020
And he still had the Lamb Road address,

00:09:20.020 --> 00:09:24.460
so I had to correct that again and say they go here.

00:09:24.460 --> 00:09:26.700
So he said he got that fixed too.

00:09:28.060 --> 00:09:32.100
Nia has been working with me for about a month now

00:09:32.100 --> 00:09:34.940
and she's picking up the software really nice.

00:09:34.940 --> 00:09:37.540
She's actually been going to the Kerr College

00:09:37.540 --> 00:09:41.580
on Thursdays for me, so I don't have to cut my day

00:09:41.580 --> 00:09:43.620
and she can go pick up and drop off

00:09:43.620 --> 00:09:46.019
and that's nice.

00:09:46.019 --> 00:09:47.779
She's gonna start working Mondays

00:09:47.779 --> 00:09:49.940
because she does babysit on Mondays,

00:09:49.940 --> 00:09:53.299
but now school's out so she can do Mondays and Thursdays

00:09:53.299 --> 00:09:55.419
and eventually she'll pick up more hours

00:09:55.419 --> 00:09:56.720
once we're in the building.

00:09:58.539 --> 00:09:59.379
All right.

00:09:59.379 --> 00:10:09.379
I did put the ending balance on this sheet so I didn't have to at least set a paper for it by itself.

00:10:09.379 --> 00:10:16.379
May has the holiday in it so numbers are a little low because of the Memorial Day.

00:10:16.379 --> 00:10:21.379
Otherwise for the year we're doing good still.

00:10:21.379 --> 00:10:33.379
Well, pickups went up because we had that big pickup that the dogs were a repeat offender, so he had to pay a $500.

00:10:33.379 --> 00:10:42.379
I did have, I guess there was an incident in McConnell that I just found out today where two dogs were running loose and filled with cats.

00:10:42.379 --> 00:10:49.379
And then I guess the dog got, one of the dogs got hit on McConnell Road or Orangeville Road.

00:10:49.379 --> 00:11:01.379
So, I have to do an investigation on that, and then there's some issues in Ryde Out with dogs running at large and going after people walking their dogs.

00:11:01.379 --> 00:11:11.379
So, there have been three incidents in the last month, two are the same dogs doing it, so we might end up have to deem them dangerous.

00:11:11.379 --> 00:11:15.460
Dress, they can't follow rules and keep them in their house.

00:11:15.779 --> 00:11:20.460
So it sounds like they're one time they opened the door somehow and went after them.

00:11:20.460 --> 00:11:23.940
And so, yeah, that'd be good.

00:11:25.539 --> 00:11:30.899
Otherwise the claims were the normal, and then our lease, our lease, quarterly

00:11:30.940 --> 00:11:38.779
lease for shelter boss, our, our rabies takes, and I didn't have a lady reach out

00:11:38.779 --> 00:11:44.860
me this week about a program that she has for tags. And I'm going to set up a demo with

00:11:44.860 --> 00:11:52.340
her to see what it's like, if it's how much money sounds like it might be free. So and

00:11:52.340 --> 00:11:58.500
it depends on how our program, if we can pull from that, and it's not re-entering again,

00:11:58.500 --> 00:12:04.259
as it sounds like we want to do that. But if they can maybe Nate, if it's one that we

00:12:04.259 --> 00:12:15.819
Transfer over, it's free, and it's about the same. So she's going to give me an email, call me next week and get something set up. It's a lot of more next meeting for that.

00:12:15.819 --> 00:12:35.819
One line is the Meadows Drive, the V-Head, Elbert Towing, Tracy Holberg did a check, Alliance Club didn't, that was in April, but they did, that's the second Alliance, Cedarville Alliance that donated.

00:12:35.819 --> 00:12:39.819
And then I also put the arrow,

00:12:39.819 --> 00:12:44.819
Gold and stuff in there for you, so you had it with enough stuff.

00:12:49.819 --> 00:12:54.819
Questions, concerns, information you want from this month?

00:12:55.819 --> 00:13:00.819
What was the result of those two guilty findings?

00:13:00.819 --> 00:13:05.819
He got a year of court supervision and fines and court costs.

00:13:05.819 --> 00:13:13.819
I think it was 200, it wasn't like $300 and that would go not towards us.

00:13:13.819 --> 00:13:15.819
We didn't do the tickets, the Sheriff's did.

00:13:15.819 --> 00:13:24.819
So I think both cases were a year, a year piece and then the fines per case.

00:13:29.819 --> 00:13:31.819
I have a question to the bottom.

00:13:31.819 --> 00:13:35.940
I think it's more of a concern, I guess, than a question,

00:13:35.940 --> 00:13:40.940
but surrenders at 33 and city strays at 17, asbestia.

00:13:43.379 --> 00:13:45.579
Did we get anything for that?

00:13:45.579 --> 00:13:49.220
So the reason the city dogs are on there,

00:13:49.220 --> 00:13:52.340
we actually don't, we just do the paperwork.

00:13:52.340 --> 00:13:53.700
City cats, sorry.

00:13:53.700 --> 00:13:54.840
Oh, the cats?

00:13:57.180 --> 00:13:59.500
We really don't get, the dog wise,

00:13:59.500 --> 00:14:02.500
we really don't physically take the dogs in.

00:14:02.500 --> 00:14:04.299
We just, we've been doing the paperwork

00:14:04.299 --> 00:14:05.539
because they fall through the cracks

00:14:05.539 --> 00:14:07.980
and a few of them have come county stories.

00:14:07.980 --> 00:14:10.019
And then we don't have the paperwork proven.

00:14:10.019 --> 00:14:11.860
They were picked up before.

00:14:11.860 --> 00:14:15.019
And in order for us to say that dog needs to be fixed,

00:14:15.019 --> 00:14:17.980
because if they're picked up twice, they should be fixed.

00:14:17.980 --> 00:14:19.500
We don't have any paper trail

00:14:19.500 --> 00:14:21.660
because the city didn't do paper trail.

00:14:21.660 --> 00:14:24.420
So we just, when they come to the animal hospital

00:14:24.420 --> 00:14:27.460
for the microchip, which is one of our microchips,

00:14:27.460 --> 00:14:32.220
Technically, we buy them, but obviously the owners pay for them.

00:14:32.220 --> 00:14:34.220
We've just been doing paperwork,

00:14:34.220 --> 00:14:37.419
so we have a paper trail of those dogs too.

00:14:37.419 --> 00:14:39.940
The cat-wise, no, we don't, we haven't,

00:14:41.419 --> 00:14:45.579
I mean, most of the cats go to rescue.

00:14:45.579 --> 00:14:48.980
How long did the city streets stay at the city?

00:14:50.059 --> 00:14:51.139
The dogs or the cats?

00:14:51.139 --> 00:14:51.980
The cats.

00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:53.419
They don't have a place for the cats.

00:14:53.419 --> 00:14:56.179
They all go to the animal hospital.

00:14:56.180 --> 00:14:58.779
That's why it's gonna change when we move.

00:14:58.779 --> 00:15:01.980
I think what we've talked before about talking to the city

00:15:01.980 --> 00:15:03.819
about doing an intergovernmental agreement.

00:15:03.819 --> 00:15:05.139
Yeah, because we're not.

00:15:05.139 --> 00:15:06.100
It's high time.

00:15:06.100 --> 00:15:06.940
Yeah.

00:15:07.779 --> 00:15:11.579
They're not going over there unless we have an impact.

00:15:11.579 --> 00:15:14.460
Okay, so what you mean by it's going to change once-

00:15:14.460 --> 00:15:15.779
Yes, yes.

00:15:15.779 --> 00:15:19.500
They're not, they're on their own.

00:15:19.500 --> 00:15:22.899
And the animal hospital already told them that they're not,

00:15:22.899 --> 00:15:37.899
Because right now, our license is technically the animals at the animal hospital, because that's where our animals are, and June, the license will be at Meadows Drive, and they won't have a license at the animal hospital.

00:15:37.899 --> 00:15:48.899
Well, if we're still there, they will until we move, but I already talked to the department today, and he knows once our animals are out there, that license is no longer theirs.

00:15:48.899 --> 00:15:53.339
and with that building it's ours because it's our license.

00:15:53.339 --> 00:15:56.759
So the city's gonna have to and they did,

00:15:56.759 --> 00:15:59.539
the animal hospital did send them something saying.

00:16:01.139 --> 00:16:03.620
So what happens to the animals that are at the animal hospital

00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:06.120
now that came from the city once we move?

00:16:09.460 --> 00:16:11.220
I'm hoping there's gonna be none to be honest

00:16:11.220 --> 00:16:13.980
and just be the the surrenders in the county straight.

00:16:13.980 --> 00:16:16.419
I know what we're hoping but what's the reality?

00:16:16.420 --> 00:16:19.420
If they're there, are they coming with you?

00:16:19.420 --> 00:16:22.420
We'll have to discuss that, I guess.

00:16:22.420 --> 00:16:25.420
I mean, I would think so, but...

00:16:25.420 --> 00:16:29.420
Okay, so I'll give it to Mayor.

00:16:29.420 --> 00:16:31.420
Yeah, we need something.

00:16:31.420 --> 00:16:41.420
Because the problem, again, is, okay, right now, if a dog gets put down, aggressive, mainly aggressive dogs,

00:16:41.420 --> 00:16:46.420
Dr. Connie used to have a company that would pick the dogs up

00:16:46.940 --> 00:16:49.460
and they would go to the schools to be used.

00:16:49.460 --> 00:16:51.480
Well, that company is no longer.

00:16:52.860 --> 00:16:56.940
So that bill doesn't have to be paid by somebody.

00:16:56.940 --> 00:17:01.940
So right now, if we do take a city dog over

00:17:02.299 --> 00:17:05.559
and that dog has to be put down, they get the bill.

00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:09.579
And same way with, if it's a county dog,

00:17:09.579 --> 00:17:14.579
we, Dr. Connie, I meant, he basically is the cost for that.

00:17:15.139 --> 00:17:18.059
So that's another thing we're going to have to think about too,

00:17:18.059 --> 00:17:21.980
is if we have to put a dog down, I want to talk to Walkers.

00:17:24.059 --> 00:17:26.259
Dr. Connie is still looking for a company,

00:17:26.259 --> 00:17:29.220
but we don't put that many down.

00:17:29.220 --> 00:17:31.759
But if we do have to put one down.

00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:43.240
Should you commit to making sure we'll open on July 1st?

00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:45.799
As long as the dog kennels are here, yes.

00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:52.880
I can have the dogs and everything.

00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:58.039
As long as I have internet, I can have the cats over in the office.

00:17:58.039 --> 00:18:00.200
I don't want this to go any longer than July.

00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:04.119
I don't need to pay rent for six months without utilizing that building.

00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:09.159
So some way, somehow it needs to be up and going by July 1st.

00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:13.159
The other issue is once you're in that other building, until there's

00:18:13.159 --> 00:18:16.960
another governmental agreement, city of Freeport, they call you to pick up a dog

00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:18.519
or a can, you can't do it.

00:18:19.159 --> 00:18:19.519
Right.

00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:20.279
Okay.

00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.360
That's fine.

00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:24.079
I don't pick them up anyway, they bring them, but okay.

00:18:24.159 --> 00:18:24.920
Can't accept them.

00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:28.039
They can't go away until we can work out who's going to pay for it.

00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:28.720
Okay.

00:18:28.799 --> 00:18:29.960
You don't have money in your budget.

00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:44.639
No. No. And honestly, from the people that I'm talking to that live in the city, they're not doing any trapping anymore for wildlife or anything.

00:18:44.639 --> 00:18:52.759
So what is whatever money they're getting going to for animal control? Because they're not even doing that.

00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:56.440
but before I get that IGA, if you accept animals

00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:58.720
before that IGA, I have no right to stand out

00:18:58.720 --> 00:19:00.000
when I'm negotiating with them.

00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:03.440
I'm not putting them in place, so that's catch dogs.

00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:06.360
Yep, we haven't honestly pulled the dog from them

00:19:06.360 --> 00:19:10.079
and like I said, these are dogs that just,

00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:11.279
we did paperwork for.

00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.720
Am I okay to still do the, like we do the paperwork?

00:19:14.720 --> 00:19:15.559
Yeah. Okay.

00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:17.599
As long as there's not an expense that's involved.

00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:22.119
No, it's just making sure we have paperwork on them.

00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:26.759
Well, thank you, myself, and I'll call her in the morning.

00:19:34.759 --> 00:19:44.759
Cindy, um, your, your, at the bottom of your sheet where it has the, uh, any fallacies?

00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:45.759
Yes.

00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:46.759
Where does that come from?

00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:47.759
I can't recognize.

00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:48.759
Stephanie.

00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:49.759
Okay.

00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:55.360
or Adrian, usually, but Stephanie, I think, did it because Adrian wasn't in his office when I asked for it.

00:19:57.759 --> 00:19:59.360
So I just put it on.

00:19:59.360 --> 00:20:04.480
So, I just put it on the bottom. Otherwise, it was going to be one sheet by itself and I'm like,

00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:16.000
Hold up Treasurer Helms' monthly report, Fund 16, there's $32,600 in it. You have it just 35 times.

00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:21.280
That's what she gave me. So, it might be like a deposit that wasn't in like that was supposed

00:20:21.280 --> 00:20:27.120
to be for me. There was one deposit I think that I took like the third. So, that might be added into

00:20:27.120 --> 00:20:33.520
is mine, that was technically, or I'll pay if I don't, if she doesn't know where it

00:20:33.520 --> 00:20:34.520
goes.

00:20:34.520 --> 00:20:37.200
I think that's where it is.

00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:52.520
The other concern I have is, this is your monthly revenues from each one of the backlights

00:20:52.520 --> 00:20:55.520
that are collecting.

00:20:55.520 --> 00:20:56.520
Correct.

00:20:56.520 --> 00:21:00.100
and year-to-date it shows we're off $1,000.

00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:06.220
But I looked at the monthly report here from the Treasurer,

00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:10.520
we're down like 9,000 in just the last month.

00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.640
So even a month ago, we were just under 42,000,

00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:17.400
we're down to 32,006.

00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:19.560
So just trying to get a feel

00:21:19.560 --> 00:21:23.240
for where the extra expenses come from.

00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:30.240
I see some gas and I see some other things, but it doesn't seem like an answer.

00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:33.240
Okay.

00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:38.240
Might be adding one payroll person too.

00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:43.240
That's perhaps where it is because we don't get, we don't see numbers.

00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:55.240
Yeah, because she's, I don't know what day we ended up, she's been at least a month to pay for something. Yeah.

00:21:55.240 --> 00:22:04.240
Need to do a little housekeeping on the website if they're still showing a number of unarchived donations from a while ago.

00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:08.240
Oh, shoot, I should have, do you send that to, yeah.

00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:23.240
And I know I sent it to everybody about AutoSmart wanting to do a pet event for us too and we're looking at August 22nd as the date we'll do it.

00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:36.240
It's just the beginning stages. I'm going to try to get K9 to do a demo and face painting and stuff like that and then we'll have some of our adoptable dogs out there.

00:22:36.240 --> 00:22:42.400
Director. Depending on what we have for cats, we'll see. They have to be a really special

00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:49.240
cat to be able to go there. The dogs will be leashed in that. I'm not going to have anybody

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:55.680
in crates to take the risk of getting free and getting on the road. If we do take a cat,

00:22:55.680 --> 00:23:01.280
they will be harnessed and leashed in a cage type thing. But we're looking at different

00:23:01.280 --> 00:23:05.680
for Things, and we're going to try to get some baskets together and do like a raffle

00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:10.840
type thing. Any ideas would be great. I'm just trying to think of like different demos

00:23:10.840 --> 00:23:18.160
that people would like. I'm going to talk to him. There was a lady that brings her sheep

00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:23.680
to the Lion, Luna's Cedarville Lion stuff. I thought, well, that'd be kind of cool to

00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:28.720
have a little petting zoo if he's okay with it. Everything's like, we just talked about

00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:30.720
on Tuesday. So everything's fresh.

00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:34.800
Do you have any other fundraising plans?

00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:36.720
Not right now.

00:23:39.760 --> 00:23:41.280
Did you talk about golf outings?

00:23:47.600 --> 00:23:51.120
I might go and watch the weather for those who have golfers.

00:23:53.760 --> 00:23:54.800
I see a lot of laughing.

00:23:54.800 --> 00:24:07.280
You should think about other things that you're going to do through the summer and doesn't

00:24:07.280 --> 00:24:08.280
go as fast.

00:24:08.280 --> 00:24:09.280
Yes, it does.

00:24:09.280 --> 00:24:14.600
Well, there's no reason to recreate the wheel, see what other roles are doing to raise money

00:24:14.600 --> 00:24:15.600
in other counties.

00:24:15.600 --> 00:24:20.880
I'm sure you can piggyback off the golf omni, it's a great idea, they're incredibly expensive

00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:22.880
and incredibly labor intensive.

00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:52.880
Assistant. Right. You just went to one. It's just a lot of work. They raise a lot of money. Great idea. I'm sure Larry went by to do all the work. If I had any time. Anybody else have questions for Kristen at this time? Thanks. Can I ask how much we're in the claims for animal

00:24:52.880 --> 00:25:00.880
For animal control, specifically, just animal control.

00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:06.880
She said 2,479 and seven cents.

00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:20.880
That is with an old friend that I've missed on VAS.

00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:34.880
You will be talking about this again a little bit later in the meeting, but do you have a firm handle on the installation of the fiber optics?

00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:40.880
I think, Vaughn signed the contract, so it's in Nate's hands now.

00:25:40.880 --> 00:25:42.880
Monday, next week.

00:25:42.880 --> 00:25:43.880
What did he say?

00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:50.880
I don't know. He told me that he confirmed that he had gotten a signed document and sent it to Arrow because of a date.

00:25:50.880 --> 00:26:03.320
I just know that she said, I figured out how to sign it because she was going to come down

00:26:03.320 --> 00:26:04.320
and sign it.

00:26:04.320 --> 00:26:05.560
She was able to do it online.

00:26:05.560 --> 00:26:06.560
So

00:26:06.560 --> 00:26:11.560
It's your point of reference to life versus three of us from yesterday?

00:26:11.560 --> 00:26:12.560
Yeah.

00:26:19.560 --> 00:26:21.560
Everybody else is good.

00:26:21.560 --> 00:26:23.560
Moving on.

00:26:23.560 --> 00:26:26.560
6.2 is the Highway Department.

00:26:26.560 --> 00:26:29.560
That one was crap.

00:26:29.560 --> 00:26:42.560
Last month we paved on McConnell Road between a Fulke and Dakota Road and we paved three quarters of a mile for Rock Grove Township last week.

00:26:42.560 --> 00:26:52.560
So we've done some ditch cleaning on Warren Road, South Kent Road, the shoulder stone on McConnell Road and Bolton Road.

00:26:52.560 --> 00:26:58.560
Straight in front of probably 3-4 Seaguard Railway. We have a little bit left to do.

00:26:58.560 --> 00:27:06.560
Ben Mowing, and then some tree cleaning up from storms, and of course patching bubbles.

00:27:06.560 --> 00:27:09.560
Helms, how much road did you go on Rock Grove for?

00:27:09.560 --> 00:27:10.560
On what?

00:27:10.560 --> 00:27:11.560
Rock Grove.

00:27:11.560 --> 00:27:12.560
For Rock Grove Township?

00:27:12.560 --> 00:27:13.560
Yeah.

00:27:13.560 --> 00:27:14.560
There's a lot.

00:27:14.560 --> 00:27:15.560
Just say Rock Grove.

00:27:15.560 --> 00:27:16.560
About three-fourths of a mile.

00:27:16.560 --> 00:27:17.560
There's that.

00:27:17.560 --> 00:27:18.560
Yeah.

00:27:18.560 --> 00:27:25.560
Other than that, that's been the month.

00:27:25.560 --> 00:27:55.560
Sperry. Thank you. Dale. Okay, we got your Highway Department update. I've highlighted any changes from the last month. And there was a little bidder for West Point Red Road crossing project. Martin's low bidder for the West Point Township Bridge project. And then the joint agreement will be locally executed for the McConnell Road project. And then those are all action items that comes up within the agenda.

00:27:55.560 --> 00:28:03.400
Payment Preservation Program. When I came here, we set up a six-year program for payment preservation.

00:28:03.400 --> 00:28:10.200
Payment preservation, the measures we did to preserve it was either seal coat work or

00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:16.920
coiled plate recycling. Coiled plate recycling, you tell it about four inches of material and

00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:22.680
oil to it, lay it back down, then we do a double-feeder over it. Then we extended that

00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:31.000
that couple of two or three years ago that took it all the way through next year.

00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:37.400
So we just put together a new program that should go beyond that.

00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:43.620
So it's something you end up sending the whole program to IDOT and they have to approve it.

00:28:43.620 --> 00:28:49.160
If you remember with the previous one, anything that required full-definition or maintenance,

00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:50.160
there's nothing there to preserve.

00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:51.160
It's already gone.

00:28:51.160 --> 00:28:54.920
So, we don't use the pavement preservation program to fix them.

00:28:54.920 --> 00:29:02.240
So we got, at the time of the original program, we had like $14, $16 million worth of unfunded

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:04.880
projects that we couldn't, didn't have money for.

00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:09.400
So we found special funding for them, either they came from the general funds, either the

00:29:09.400 --> 00:29:15.600
program that I had put out was their RBI funds, we had some COVID relief funds, and money

00:29:15.600 --> 00:29:22.720
for the General Fund, and then I had another program for local project funds. So with that

00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:30.720
special funding, we were able to take care of Baileyville Road from Montague up to Lamb Road.

00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:36.320
We did all of Cedarville from, well, we're going to be finishing up the last section of that. It

00:29:36.320 --> 00:29:43.360
goes from Galena Road all the way over to Route 26, and then McConnell Road from 26 over to

00:29:43.360 --> 00:29:48.360
to Appalachia. We have special funding for those. If they didn't have anything, any money

00:29:48.360 --> 00:29:53.039
to do, Dakota Road or Rock Grove Road, so we carried those over. And then if you look

00:29:53.039 --> 00:29:59.320
at the new program, I'll kind of go over the criteria that we set up.

00:29:59.320 --> 00:30:03.160
I'll kind of go over the criteria that we set up for this.

00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:05.360
We have an increase of,

00:30:05.360 --> 00:30:06.640
when I set up the original program

00:30:06.640 --> 00:30:09.640
was for $750,000 a year.

00:30:09.640 --> 00:30:12.320
We're getting increased federal funds

00:30:12.320 --> 00:30:14.760
so we can do about a million dollars a year.

00:30:14.760 --> 00:30:16.600
And then federal funds are 80-20.

00:30:16.600 --> 00:30:21.240
So I'll say it's $800,000 a year in federal funds

00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:24.500
with a $200,000 match.

00:30:24.500 --> 00:30:26.900
So our criteria was to,

00:30:26.900 --> 00:30:29.300
we wanted to do a seal code every year

00:30:29.300 --> 00:30:33.500
and then, excuse me, a co-implemented recycling every year.

00:30:33.500 --> 00:30:38.500
And then any place, anything that we did CIR last year,

00:30:38.540 --> 00:30:41.060
you want to put a third seal coat on top of that

00:30:41.060 --> 00:30:42.020
to help preserve it.

00:30:42.020 --> 00:30:46.300
So our criteria was CIR first,

00:30:46.300 --> 00:30:50.260
and then we did some seal coat work afterwards.

00:30:50.260 --> 00:30:52.780
So we prioritize the projects

00:30:52.780 --> 00:30:57.460
by the condition of the pavement and the traffic count.

00:30:57.460 --> 00:31:01.540
Higher Traffic Column, we want to take care of those roads first.

00:31:01.540 --> 00:31:03.940
So we set up a new program.

00:31:03.940 --> 00:31:07.340
And I know the chart just probably doesn't mean too much

00:31:07.340 --> 00:31:10.780
to you, but we use all this information to help us put

00:31:10.780 --> 00:31:14.980
together our needs.

00:31:14.980 --> 00:31:20.540
But Scott, myself, and Kate went through and evaluated

00:31:20.540 --> 00:31:22.340
all the roads in the county.

00:31:22.340 --> 00:31:25.180
And about the eighth column over is the CR.

00:31:25.180 --> 00:31:27.060
that's a condition rating.

00:31:27.060 --> 00:31:31.100
Condition rating goes from zero in terrible pavement

00:31:31.100 --> 00:31:32.520
to 90 in perfect.

00:31:32.520 --> 00:31:35.760
So if you see, we went through and looked at

00:31:35.760 --> 00:31:37.680
what the pavement was look like.

00:31:38.680 --> 00:31:42.080
When the first time around,

00:31:42.080 --> 00:31:44.640
we had nothing worse than about a four,

00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:46.940
McConnell Road dropped down to a three one time.

00:31:47.900 --> 00:31:50.700
We see now our roads are,

00:31:50.700 --> 00:31:52.300
the worst is about is a five.

00:31:52.300 --> 00:31:53.900
So that's why it's up in the top

00:31:53.900 --> 00:32:05.300
we want to get those things taken care of. And then we looked at the condition of the roadway. And then we also have to look at what you need to do to fix it, whether it's cold place recycling over to all of these as a seal code.

00:32:06.540 --> 00:32:08.860
And then at the bottom, the yellow, you can see

00:32:09.980 --> 00:32:19.940
the ones that do require a full debt reclamation. And we've got about $7 million worth of unfunded full debt reclamation projects.

00:32:19.940 --> 00:32:49.940
DeSoto Road is still there. Rock Rover Road is still there. We've added a new section, McConnell Road, because it's getting a lot of truck traffic from burner food. So this is not part of what we've done before, but it's the next section over. So and then Galena Road is breaking up. So we need to do a full death reclamation for that. So now we're looking where we had 14 to 16 million dollars before. Now we're at that bottom half. So but

00:32:49.940 --> 00:32:53.280
It is money that is unfunded, or projects that are unfunded.

00:32:53.280 --> 00:32:58.280
So over time, this is what we will need to fix.

00:32:58.280 --> 00:33:01.780
If you have any questions on it, let me know.

00:33:01.780 --> 00:33:04.580
And then we will be finishing up the paperwork

00:33:04.580 --> 00:33:08.560
and send that in to IDAF for their approval.

00:33:09.520 --> 00:33:10.960
Making good progress.

00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:11.800
Pardon me?

00:33:11.800 --> 00:33:13.400
Making good progress, I'd say.

00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:14.240
I think we have.

00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:15.400
Okay, thank you.

00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:19.140
We've packed away a lot of them on the roses and county.

00:33:19.140 --> 00:33:49.140
So. Okay, that's it. Any questions to Dale? Oh, one I guess, you know, I know it's coming up in the at the end of the agenda, but we're probably in 26. You know, we talked three, four year, I believe it was state funding that was coming in for that. And then they were going to hopefully have the funds to before the end of their fiscal year, or, I guess, along the short of it is

00:33:49.140 --> 00:33:57.140
I'm a lot more optimistic now that we have this joint agreement.

00:33:57.140 --> 00:34:15.140
The joint agreement for the Cedarville Road, the same kind of funding, and it took a long time for them to get it out, and that kind of put the bug in there, and it worked, and they got the joint agreement out, and then they followed it right away with the joint agreement for this month.

00:34:15.140 --> 00:34:21.060
Once we've got the joint agreement, both parties executed, then we can go to letting.

00:34:21.060 --> 00:34:26.660
The plans are, the final plans are in with IDOT. Once they approve the final plans, we can go to letting.

00:34:26.660 --> 00:34:38.579
So, when both parties execute this, let me see, this is June, I would say we can probably go to letting by September, possibly into August.

00:34:38.579 --> 00:34:48.420
and that's a complete project before the end of 26. I'm hoping, yes. I love your optimism.

00:34:51.060 --> 00:34:52.180
Okay, thank you. Sure.

00:34:52.180 --> 00:35:03.860
Director, Larry House, Dr. Dale this morning.

00:35:03.860 --> 00:35:06.160
Everything's still looking good.

00:35:06.160 --> 00:35:11.000
We kind of got delayed on some of the projects.

00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:14.160
We haven't gotten any big invoices yet.

00:35:14.160 --> 00:35:21.820
I'm anticipating that next month we'll start getting some bigger invoice totals coming

00:35:21.820 --> 00:35:49.740
through. We did, I just did do a deposit for the Shippey Road bridge. I got, finally, I got payment to us. So I just deposited $641,000. So that will get to the Township Bridge program. So that will help with the county bridge balance. So yeah, well, so

00:35:51.820 --> 00:36:09.820
We have a guardrail invoice that's coming in this month that will be due next month that will be a fairly large but and that everything else right now is looking good, under budget, we'll have it through the season.

00:36:09.820 --> 00:36:17.340
Speaking of guardrails, I only need to visit this probably twice a year, because I already

00:36:17.340 --> 00:36:21.220
probably visited it and such, but is there any, have you seen any money at all for the

00:36:21.220 --> 00:36:26.700
Rock City guardrails to pay?

00:36:26.700 --> 00:36:29.820
I did, but not recently.

00:36:29.820 --> 00:36:34.620
It was like court fees of like $135.

00:36:34.620 --> 00:37:03.620
I know the last time I talked to Chanel, she said that I think that they suggested and they had it paid by like July, but I don't see that.

00:37:03.620 --> 00:37:27.620
We went through all the steps to, since it was like a DUI case or whatever, I think they had more authority, but just the way that it seemed, like it just, I didn't think we would see much more of anything, but I'll go with Carmel here.

00:37:27.620 --> 00:37:33.620
So who prosecuted that on our behalf as a column?

00:37:33.620 --> 00:37:35.620
I believe, I believe so.

00:37:35.620 --> 00:37:38.620
Well, we were in the summary judgment meeting.

00:37:38.620 --> 00:37:39.620
Yeah, yeah.

00:37:39.620 --> 00:37:43.620
I thought it was done through the DUI cases, restitution.

00:37:43.620 --> 00:37:45.620
Oh no, that's why I'm asking.

00:37:45.620 --> 00:37:47.620
I don't know, maybe I'm...

00:37:47.620 --> 00:37:50.620
It wasn't Carl, of course, and it was somebody else in his office, I remember.

00:37:50.620 --> 00:37:52.620
But the state's curious about this.

00:37:52.620 --> 00:37:53.620
Yes, yeah.

00:37:53.620 --> 00:37:55.620
Because I've heard of the witness at one point.

00:37:55.620 --> 00:38:15.900
Summary judgments are good for either five or seven years, I don't remember which, but they've got to be renewed at the end of that, stay active, otherwise they just go away. But if there is a fine form of pay, we can have them do a motion to discover assets, which I think you talked about, which will make him come back into court.

00:38:15.900 --> 00:38:27.420
and we, I brought that up to Carl and Chanel because I remember bringing that up and

00:38:28.380 --> 00:38:36.940
that's when they said I'd have to look at wording and stuff like what the judgment that it was.

00:38:38.619 --> 00:38:42.780
You don't have to look at it, right? Well, I'll get back to you. My preference is if we were awarded

00:38:42.780 --> 00:38:44.860
with the Summary Judgment, he's missed a deadline

00:38:44.860 --> 00:38:47.460
that we do a motion to dispel our assets.

00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:48.300
Because once you do that,

00:38:48.300 --> 00:38:50.300
you can also do a wage garnishing on it.

00:38:51.700 --> 00:38:56.380
Okay, let me look into that and I'll get back to you.

00:38:56.380 --> 00:38:59.100
Because I know I brought that up to him,

00:38:59.100 --> 00:39:00.700
returned to Chanel.

00:39:00.700 --> 00:39:02.740
We're the client of this, so.

00:39:05.660 --> 00:39:07.220
If he's got a question about it,

00:39:07.220 --> 00:39:10.180
I guess you could have him talk to me too

00:39:10.180 --> 00:39:25.940
Thank you, Brian. 7.0 is the old business which we don't have input for this evening.

00:39:25.940 --> 00:39:34.579
If iron 8.0 is new business, 8.1 is discussed through the first addendum to the neutral wood

00:39:34.579 --> 00:39:46.660
for Metals Dryer. So we're adding the $160 monthly fee for the Internet. The owners of

00:39:46.660 --> 00:39:54.740
the property are paying for the installation costs and then we'll just have the $160 a month.

00:39:54.740 --> 00:40:05.740
and if we pull out, then they will obviously take that 160 for themselves to pay that.

00:40:05.740 --> 00:40:17.740
One more background on it. If you compare it in the last couple of weeks, we didn't have internet at the building and there was no internet in the building.

00:40:17.740 --> 00:40:41.620
and closest was down at the end of the street, so Nate checked with Errol and we had to trash it in and it can be fairly expensive as ever and Christian checked with the Landlords and they agreed to pay for the delivery of the fiber optic cable.

00:40:41.620 --> 00:40:50.900
But then we, there was a reoccurring monthly fee as well, that went with this quote and

00:40:50.900 --> 00:40:55.040
so that felt was ours to pay.

00:40:55.040 --> 00:41:02.440
So what the addendum does is add that into the base agreement we had and varies it up

00:41:02.440 --> 00:41:08.100
time wise to the length of our contract with them.

00:41:08.100 --> 00:41:15.380
So, if we get past three or four years and we're looking at year four or five, then we

00:41:15.380 --> 00:41:23.740
could redo the contract, but the landlords will be responsible for the lease agreement.

00:41:23.740 --> 00:41:28.180
We started the monthly reoccurring fees.

00:41:28.180 --> 00:41:33.620
They will be responsible for that at this point for year four and year five is our lease

00:41:33.620 --> 00:41:36.200
and our obligation is to add to the status of this race.

00:41:38.660 --> 00:41:39.500
Any questions?

00:41:39.500 --> 00:41:41.620
So item number four down there,

00:41:41.620 --> 00:41:44.700
to number five, I guess it is.

00:41:44.700 --> 00:41:47.100
Do we know what the family termination thing is

00:41:47.100 --> 00:41:50.060
if we, for some reason, that terminate?

00:41:51.860 --> 00:41:52.900
Yeah.

00:41:52.900 --> 00:41:54.660
This is all a problem.

00:41:54.660 --> 00:41:55.500
Yeah.

00:41:56.460 --> 00:41:58.700
Are you serious, because you've never known?

00:42:01.140 --> 00:42:01.980
I don't.

00:42:01.980 --> 00:42:02.820
I don't remember.

00:42:03.620 --> 00:42:13.620
I don't think there was one, but I can look it up on the website, I guess.

00:42:13.620 --> 00:42:17.620
The other thing you can do is make a motion to amend it and remove it.

00:42:33.620 --> 00:42:43.780
You can let them know that the board, when the committee is not excited about termination

00:42:43.780 --> 00:42:48.740
fee, find out how much there is, if it's something that the property owner is not willing to

00:42:48.740 --> 00:42:49.740
waive.

00:42:49.740 --> 00:42:55.100
So you can present that to the county board on Thursday when it goes and make an ammendment

00:42:55.100 --> 00:43:02.100
Well, let's put it out here and put it back in if you go that way.

00:43:25.100 --> 00:43:44.100
Yes, barring any future developments, I'll make a motion to approve if we can tweak it as information comes up full board, but in the interest of getting more eyes on this, I'll make a motion to approve, as is.

00:43:44.100 --> 00:43:49.100
I'll second it.

00:43:49.100 --> 00:43:58.100
So I have a motion to approve the Addendum as is in a second as well for Mr. Doherty. Any other previous discussion?

00:43:59.100 --> 00:44:02.100
Any comments you'd like to make?

00:44:03.100 --> 00:44:09.100
It seems like a reasonable back and forth between the landowners and us.

00:44:10.100 --> 00:44:12.100
All things considered?

00:44:13.100 --> 00:44:14.100
Yes.

00:44:14.100 --> 00:44:26.100
Okay, all those in favor of adopting the first item, I say aye. Motion is approved.

00:44:26.100 --> 00:44:34.100
Item 8.2 is the Discussion and Approval of the Memorandum of Understanding,

00:44:34.100 --> 00:44:37.260
for Winslow Township and the State of Wisconsin.

00:44:37.260 --> 00:44:39.460
Okay, this is a memorandum of understanding

00:44:39.460 --> 00:44:42.220
that the Federal Highway Administration is requiring

00:44:43.380 --> 00:44:45.580
both all parties to sign it.

00:44:45.580 --> 00:44:50.220
This is for structures that are on state lines.

00:44:50.220 --> 00:44:53.700
So there's two bridges that are in Winslow Township

00:44:53.700 --> 00:44:55.980
in Samson County and the County of Wayne

00:44:55.980 --> 00:44:59.000
and Lafayette County in Wisconsin.

00:45:00.140 --> 00:45:02.740
A bridge office has reviewed this.

00:45:02.740 --> 00:45:17.140
Carl has reviewed it, so it just basically does not impact the county any because both bridges are the responsibility of Wisconsin to inspect them.

00:45:17.140 --> 00:45:27.940
So, but it's just a memorandum of understanding to say that we concur with them due to the fact that it goes further than just inspection, right?

00:45:27.940 --> 00:45:33.220
It says maintenance responsibility, so if it had to be fixed or renewed, I would be them.

00:45:33.220 --> 00:45:36.260
Yeah, we all agree, it's not a loss.

00:45:41.620 --> 00:45:44.980
Yeah, that's right. It doesn't make a difference in the fact that it's kind of competitively.

00:45:47.460 --> 00:45:48.260
Any questions?

00:45:50.260 --> 00:45:54.100
No, I was just going to mention that we have a motion from Mr. Jogerst to approve

00:45:54.100 --> 00:45:56.380
from the section by Mr. Newton.

00:45:56.380 --> 00:45:58.220
Any other discussion?

00:45:58.220 --> 00:46:00.220
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:46:00.220 --> 00:46:01.220
Aye.

00:46:01.220 --> 00:46:02.340
Oh, she has approved.

00:46:04.500 --> 00:46:06.740
I have to give us an assignment, the only assignment.

00:46:06.740 --> 00:46:09.460
No, not for us, it goes through withdrawals.

00:46:09.460 --> 00:46:11.140
It's a fact-sign, the leader has.

00:46:11.140 --> 00:46:14.740
All right, 8.3, the discussion of the VIF apps.

00:46:14.740 --> 00:46:17.160
Okay, we had two lettings this past week.

00:46:18.320 --> 00:46:23.320
One was for, first one is for Wet Point Township.

00:46:23.320 --> 00:46:51.680
This is a Township Bridge. It's 100% funding from DBP, so it's no impact to the county at all. All four low bids came in over the engineer's estimate, but it'll still all just be paid for with Township Bridge program funds, so I've recommended alerting it to Spartan and Company.

00:46:53.320 --> 00:47:03.320
So that comes, that will come up later in under 26-11, H-26-11.

00:47:03.320 --> 00:47:13.320
The other thing that we had was for a great crossing in West Point Township.

00:47:13.320 --> 00:47:43.320
and it was that north five quarters the ICC is requiring the township to build the road up to meet the new new crossing and they're going to be putting new signals and stuff there in a new crossing material we just need to build the road up to it so we did the plans in-house, the load bid or the engineering assessment with 83,000 and load bid for

00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:58.600
Significant Wells on $118,000 over that. I've put in a request to the ICC for something I'm funding for, and this is all paid for with Great Crossing Protection Funds. So once again, there's no cost to the county.

00:48:01.960 --> 00:48:09.080
And if there is, if they end up not authorizing additional funds, it's still in the Township of Nothin County.

00:48:09.080 --> 00:48:15.080
That's it. That's the offline edit.

00:48:15.080 --> 00:48:17.080
Can I ask a question?

00:48:17.080 --> 00:48:19.080
Absolutely.

00:48:19.080 --> 00:48:24.080
Do you have anything that you would chalk up those over bits to?

00:48:24.080 --> 00:48:27.080
Usually, the engineers are pretty spot on.

00:48:27.080 --> 00:48:33.080
Normally, the consultant did the engineer assessment on the bridge project.

00:48:33.080 --> 00:48:58.080
I'm seeing the last few lettings that are coming in over. Now this was the river crossing. It's a very small project, so the unit price for asphalt and aggregate goes up and you don't have that much material, so I attribute that to the overrun number on that small project.

00:48:58.080 --> 00:49:08.240
Also, if you look at that, it's about halfway down the list here of items of creek past and

00:49:08.240 --> 00:49:14.960
pre-stressed concrete that vary in names. There's $60,000 of difference between it's a little

00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:22.400
thinner and that's what I'm doing instead. So, percentage-wise, it's big.

00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:32.760
As an engineer, you base your estimates on historical, when the contract would, particularly

00:49:32.760 --> 00:49:37.720
for free-stressed beams, they're getting the bit right from the manufacturer, so they know

00:49:37.720 --> 00:49:45.000
exactly what the loss will be at that time, so their cost is likely to go higher, so there

00:49:45.000 --> 00:49:52.320
must be a shortage of beams out there that cause them the price to go up.

00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:54.720
Pat, any other questions before we move on?

00:49:54.720 --> 00:50:00.080
Any other questions before we move on? We will return to this as an action item a little bit later.

00:50:03.920 --> 00:50:12.240
Okay, so 8.4 is the Discussion and Disproval of the Joint Agreement, HD 469.

00:50:12.240 --> 00:50:22.480
Yeah, this is for the Makana Road, Route 26 intersection. Once again, it's 100% funding from

00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:28.560
Local Project Funding that was in the county. It was competitive. I mean, we rewarded that

00:50:29.280 --> 00:50:35.280
project. So they asked for some money in there just in case there's a thing goes over what's covered

00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:43.840
by the local project funding. So we have 30,000 in there. I anticipate we should be able to do it

00:50:43.840 --> 00:50:45.840
with Vision Project Funding and Amalfi.

00:50:58.840 --> 00:51:00.840
Any discussion on this?

00:51:02.840 --> 00:51:04.840
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:51:04.840 --> 00:51:06.840
Item, motion is approved.

00:52:13.840 --> 00:52:43.200
So we have 8.4, which is, oh, sorry, 8.5, HD 2611, Township, British, Baptist, Missionary,

00:52:43.200 --> 00:52:44.560
We talked about her earlier.

00:52:44.560 --> 00:52:46.360
Yeah.

00:52:46.360 --> 00:52:48.080
Do I have a motion to approve?

00:52:48.080 --> 00:52:49.120
Motion to approve.

00:52:49.120 --> 00:52:53.640
But Mr. Noonan, Inspector, Mr. Jogerst, any discussion?

00:52:53.640 --> 00:52:55.640
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:52:55.640 --> 00:52:56.560
Aye.

00:52:56.560 --> 00:52:57.560
Motion is approved.

00:54:13.200 --> 00:54:29.200
I'll let Scott or Brian talk about it.

00:54:29.200 --> 00:54:35.200
It was a bid from Mineral Truck under the source bill contract.

00:54:35.200 --> 00:54:44.200
I did, it's, I thought it was pretty much right in line with what I expected.

00:54:44.200 --> 00:54:50.200
I did add a few things that were not on the last bit.

00:54:50.200 --> 00:54:57.200
One was a, I switched from an old style gear pump to a low sense pump on truck.

00:54:57.200 --> 00:55:01.200
It's a more modern, basically it's what is running.

00:55:01.200 --> 00:55:16.200
and I had things that were about the last county or one of the few last run of basic pump and parts are getting parts to come by with some of those older style things.

00:55:16.200 --> 00:55:28.200
I also added a tarp to it to be installed up there. Normally we did it at the shop, but it tends to get a little confusing when you have the truck up there

00:55:28.200 --> 00:55:35.080
and they're welding brackets on the truck for something that they're not mounting. So if they

00:55:35.080 --> 00:55:40.840
have it in front of them, it's easier to put brackets and some of the tie downs on right there.

00:55:41.480 --> 00:55:49.960
And then another thing that added to the cost, their labor, I think from 23 has gone on $20 an

00:55:49.960 --> 00:56:19.960
They went from $140 an hour to $160. So total cost, I think our last bid was $114,115 somewhere in there. And this one was $135. Is that right? So it was like $13,500 just in stuff that I added. So if you add 10% for everything else, where you

00:56:19.960 --> 00:56:37.960
Pretty much right in line. I was pretty satisfied with it. So, and that gets it locked in for, I'm not going to say anything because that doesn't matter, but it's going to be over a year yet until you get to this.

00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:46.960
I'm going to say it will be next fall, fall of 27, before they will give it to us.

00:56:46.960 --> 00:56:55.360
and when do we expect a truck? The truck is sitting in the middle of waiting. Oh my god and

00:56:57.200 --> 00:57:03.600
things have changed a lot. I thought the salesman from Monroe said now what he's starting to see is

00:57:05.600 --> 00:57:11.120
they're bidding the snow and ice equipment before they're actually bidding the cabin chassis out.

00:57:11.120 --> 00:57:41.120
They're bidding that out since it's so far out. And then they, they're getting the cabin chassis after the fact. So it's, it's a real, it's a real screwed up process. You know, I apologize. No, we do not have that cabin chassis. I mixed it up with the last one. It's the end, the end of this year is when we'll see it. I think he's, when I talked to him, he said somewhere in November,

00:57:41.120 --> 00:57:50.800
Ish, East Center. We just, we just, or like recently purchased that. Yeah, we just took, yeah, it was

00:57:52.560 --> 00:58:01.600
March. Yeah, it was this year. I believe, yeah. So, so Cabin Chassis is in the budget for this year, but

00:58:02.240 --> 00:58:10.160
this would fall in probably 27. When do we pay for the truck? When it's, when is it technically

00:58:10.160 --> 00:58:14.960
Delivered. After the equipment's been put on it or before that, and it's

00:58:16.160 --> 00:58:22.480
We pay for the cabin chassis when it's delivered to Unroll. When Freightliner releases it or the

00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:29.840
dealer truck hunter releases it, we pay for the cabin chassis. The good thing is they do not start

00:58:29.840 --> 00:58:40.000
the warranty until we contact them with snow and ice equipment installed. Because the last one

00:58:40.000 --> 00:58:46.440
There's a few minor things I want to do to that yet before we start using it and I haven't

00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:48.800
started the warranty yet and I haven't had it yet.

00:58:48.800 --> 00:58:54.880
So the salesman actually called me and asked me if it was in service and I said no.

00:58:54.880 --> 00:59:01.940
So we're going to hold off and maybe in the next month I'll contact you about that.

00:59:01.940 --> 00:59:12.980
So, it's a kind of a disastrous process right now with everything, so.

00:59:12.980 --> 00:59:19.380
When did you anticipate the equipment being installed, fall of 2017, did you say?

00:59:19.380 --> 00:59:23.300
So it will sit up there for about 10 months, roughly.

00:59:23.300 --> 00:59:24.300
Yes.

00:59:24.300 --> 00:59:29.660
Well it's crazy, I mean, I don't know if any of you have been out there, but there's a hill

00:59:29.660 --> 00:59:30.660
behind there.

00:59:30.660 --> 00:59:38.740
The whole hill is just plastered with cattle chances. I'll bet they have hundreds, oh yeah,

00:59:38.740 --> 00:59:43.940
maybe three, four hundred of them sit up there. I think there's some down by Vanderstate sitting

00:59:43.940 --> 00:59:49.460
there too right now. They've opened up another facility trying to put equipment on there in

00:59:49.460 --> 00:59:54.580
and Ronald, and they're transporting some of the stuff to different facilities like in Joliet.

00:59:54.580 --> 01:00:11.580
Facilities like in Joliet, I think one over by the walk, yeah, Bush, trying to, and Vanell's no better in Monroe, or Dixon, they're, they're out over, well over a year or two, so.

01:00:15.580 --> 01:00:21.580
And so what's the bottleneck of that? Why is it so, why does it take so?

01:00:21.580 --> 01:00:35.260
I think from COVID there was a backup where they were waiting on all these trucks on these chassis

01:00:36.140 --> 01:00:46.940
and then the chassis started coming in, flooded them and all these builders and they just have

01:00:46.940 --> 01:01:16.940
I've never caught up since. And honestly, I think they have the same problem everyone has is the turnover rate is for their help is crazy. And it's not something building trucks like that's not an easy job. I mean, you have to have somebody to oversee what's going on. It's, it's not just bolt a box on a frame and it's hydraulics, it's

01:01:16.940 --> 01:01:24.060
Kirk, you know, there's, there's a lot going on, so I don't know how they, it's gotta be

01:01:24.060 --> 01:01:29.660
tough for them, but that seems like it's the way of the world, and I'm unfortunate.

01:01:31.500 --> 01:01:37.660
All right, now that that's a good excuse, that, you know, it's the one that I've heard, so.

01:01:37.660 --> 01:02:07.660
and so on. Any other questions? Pleasure of the committee. I'll make a motion for Mr. Jogerst to approve. In a second, I'll get through this reminder roll. Further discussion? Seeing none, all those in favor, say ayes. Motion is approved.

01:02:37.660 --> 01:03:04.660
I'm not on the committee, but I did want to update everybody on the Sheriff and Crime Suppression Unit has been trained to operate portable scales, and they already have their first ticket slash arrest.

01:03:04.660 --> 01:03:12.220
They got a dump truck up by Dakota, I believe, that was stealing rock out of a quarry.

01:03:12.220 --> 01:03:15.980
Was there a quarry up in Dakota, Dakota or Davis, one of those?

01:03:15.980 --> 01:03:16.980
Davis.

01:03:16.980 --> 01:03:17.980
Davis.

01:03:17.980 --> 01:03:18.980
Yeah.

01:03:18.980 --> 01:03:28.900
So the guy, tandem axle, 28,000 pounds per axle, no driver's license, no truck license,

01:03:28.900 --> 01:03:33.700
no insurance, overweight, while stealing the rock out of the quarry.

01:03:33.700 --> 01:04:03.660
He was actually going in there at night operating the backhoe, I'm assuming, loading the trucks up, driving them out. Now, because of, I know I'm going to say this wrong, so please don't judge me on it, the pre-trial, part of the Safety Act, regardless, it was Friday, he wrote him all the tickets and had to release them and release the truck as well.

01:04:03.700 --> 01:04:07.740
Well, so don't think he's stealing necessarily.

01:04:07.740 --> 01:04:12.260
He's operating that, that just, I can't get high off the truck.

01:04:13.300 --> 01:04:15.380
They can't, yeah, they didn't impound the truck or anything.

01:04:15.380 --> 01:04:19.020
They let him drive, drive away in the truck, even though he had no license.

01:04:19.020 --> 01:04:20.700
All the time, apparently.

01:04:20.900 --> 01:04:24.660
That's how it's required to go, no insurance either.

01:04:24.660 --> 01:04:28.940
I'm more worried about not having insurance, but even if he had insurance,

01:04:28.940 --> 01:04:32.020
if he's not licensed, the insurance would never pay a claim to anything.

01:04:32.020 --> 01:04:44.020
But the good part of that is, they were up and operating and they've got their first person, so we have the ability to-

01:04:44.020 --> 01:04:46.020
In a big way, I mean.

01:04:46.020 --> 01:04:48.020
Yeah, it just kept going.

01:04:48.020 --> 01:04:50.020
Do they have their own portable scanner?

01:04:50.020 --> 01:04:52.020
Yep.

01:04:52.020 --> 01:04:58.020
Apparently, the scales aren't that expensive. It's getting the training done by the state police and the training, so-

01:04:58.020 --> 01:04:59.020
Oh, thanks.

01:04:59.020 --> 01:05:02.580
That's one thing where government is vast and effective.

01:05:02.580 --> 01:05:05.280
That's, is it 60 days?

01:05:05.280 --> 01:05:06.120
Wow.

01:05:06.120 --> 01:05:07.600
That's crazy.

01:05:07.600 --> 01:05:10.540
I think they can park outside of Nueces Torqueso now.

01:05:14.660 --> 01:05:17.800
Well, you don't think that guy back down to 80,000?

01:05:17.800 --> 01:05:18.640
I don't know.

01:05:18.640 --> 01:05:19.780
When he get that email?

01:05:23.460 --> 01:05:26.220
So anyway, what it is.

01:05:26.220 --> 01:05:37.220
Clark's Question Unit isn't just focusing on overweight trucks, but they got a tip on this one so I'll tell you.

01:05:37.220 --> 01:05:39.220
They have the ability to.

01:05:39.220 --> 01:05:41.220
Yeah, absolutely.

01:05:41.220 --> 01:05:44.220
Well, this wasn't just an overweight truck.

01:05:44.220 --> 01:05:49.220
That's all we thought it was for sure, yes, or it would be far worse.

01:05:49.220 --> 01:05:53.220
And you know, it wasn't just that one night that he was standing there.

01:05:53.220 --> 01:05:55.220
No, he's been doing it a long time.

01:05:55.220 --> 01:05:56.220
Yeah.

01:05:56.220 --> 01:05:57.220
Why?

01:05:57.220 --> 01:06:00.220
Because my first question is how's he loading the truck?

01:06:00.220 --> 01:06:03.220
It's like he's operating the backhoe.

01:06:03.220 --> 01:06:04.220
Wow.

01:06:04.220 --> 01:06:05.220
That's fancy.

01:06:05.220 --> 01:06:06.220
That's enterprising.

01:06:06.220 --> 01:06:07.220
Yeah.

01:06:07.220 --> 01:06:08.220
And illegal.

01:06:08.220 --> 01:06:09.220
She's crazy.

01:06:09.220 --> 01:06:10.220
Any other comments?

01:06:10.220 --> 01:06:11.220
It's not crazy.

01:06:11.220 --> 01:06:15.900
Any other comments from that?

01:06:15.900 --> 01:06:16.900
It's not crazy.

01:06:16.900 --> 01:06:18.900
We're going to go straight to that one.

01:06:18.900 --> 01:06:19.900
Yeah, that one.

01:06:19.900 --> 01:06:24.900
Well, we haven't done that in a long time.

01:06:24.900 --> 01:06:25.900
Motion to adjourn?

01:06:25.900 --> 01:06:26.900
So moved.

01:06:26.900 --> 01:06:27.900
So moved.

01:06:27.900 --> 01:06:28.900
Those guys have been purged.

01:06:28.900 --> 01:06:29.900
Sacrificed Mr. Gershwin.

01:06:29.900 --> 01:06:30.900
Right back.

01:06:30.900 --> 01:06:31.900
All those in favor?

01:06:31.900 --> 01:06:32.900
Aye.

01:06:32.900 --> 01:06:33.900
Aye.

01:06:33.900 --> 01:06:34.900
Thank you everyone.

01:06:34.900 --> 01:06:35.900
I'll come next time.

01:06:35.900 --> 01:06:36.900
I wasn't sure.

01:06:36.900 --> 01:06:37.900
I was going to give you that from Iowa.

01:06:37.900 --> 01:06:38.900
I know.

01:06:38.900 --> 01:06:39.300
and others.
