Health department aren't being kept up to speed on all new. | 2025-03-11 12:04:00 | |
Development with the new building. | 2025-03-11 12:04:03 | |
And I just. | 2025-03-11 12:04:06 | |
Just wanted to comment that I sent out an e-mail. | 2025-03-11 12:04:09 | |
With regards to this. | 2025-03-11 12:04:12 | |
Particular issue and I sent it out to. | 2025-03-11 12:04:15 | |
All members of the board here. I sent it out. | 2025-03-11 12:04:18 | |
To Doctor Harris. | 2025-03-11 12:04:21 | |
And Charlotte Bass. | 2025-03-11 12:04:24 | |
And you know. | 2025-03-11 12:04:27 | |
Purpose of the e-mail was communication. | 2025-03-11 12:04:30 | |
To the board and the health department with. | 2025-03-11 12:04:33 | |
Regard to the status of where we were at. | 2025-03-11 12:04:36 | |
And basically. | 2025-03-11 12:04:39 | |
In regards to the e-mail. | 2025-03-11 12:04:42 | |
What I laid out is what the Commissioners are doing. | 2025-03-11 12:04:45 | |
And specifically. | 2025-03-11 12:04:48 | |
Buying the building for the health department. | 2025-03-11 12:04:52 | |
They're going to provide 1.1 million. | 2025-03-11 12:04:55 | |
For improvements. | 2025-03-11 12:04:58 | |
To that building. | 2025-03-11 12:05:00 | |
Uh. | 2025-03-11 12:05:01 | |
And of course, that's for budgetary purposes. | 2025-03-11 12:05:04 | |
For the Floyd County Health Department, so. | 2025-03-11 12:05:07 | |
They know what they have in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:05:10 | |
Being able to move forward that way. | 2025-03-11 12:05:13 | |
1.1 million obviously plus whatever. | 2025-03-11 12:05:16 | |
Additional monies that the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:05:19 | |
Has in terms of being able to. | 2025-03-11 12:05:22 | |
Umm add. | 2025-03-11 12:05:25 | |
That that they have in their coffers. | 2025-03-11 12:05:28 | |
I indicated in the e-mail. | 2025-03-11 12:05:31 | |
Of that we expect the. | 2025-03-11 12:05:34 | |
Clothing on the property to be. | 2025-03-11 12:05:37 | |
Towards the end of April or early. | 2025-03-11 12:05:40 | |
May I indicate? | 2025-03-11 12:05:43 | |
With regard. | 2025-03-11 12:05:46 | |
Floyd County Health Department What their. | 2025-03-11 12:05:49 | |
Their responsibilities were and that is. | 2025-03-11 12:05:52 | |
You know, make sure that. | 2025-03-11 12:05:55 | |
You have identified all your wants. | 2025-03-11 12:05:58 | |
With regards to this building. | 2025-03-11 12:06:01 | |
So that that can be built into the plan. | 2025-03-11 12:06:04 | |
The process that. | 2025-03-11 12:06:07 | |
That I laid out with regards to this. | 2025-03-11 12:06:10 | |
Recommended Basically a bottoms up. | 2025-03-11 12:06:13 | |
Umm, that. | 2025-03-11 12:06:16 | |
What the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:06:19 | |
And board needs to do to deter. | 2025-03-11 12:06:22 | |
What type of design space is needed? | 2025-03-11 12:06:25 | |
Umm, to be able for the. | 2025-03-11 12:06:28 | |
Employees to do their. | 2025-03-11 12:06:31 | |
Job effectively. | 2025-03-11 12:06:34 | |
And. | 2025-03-11 12:06:34 | |
Plants needed to be developed. | 2025-03-11 12:06:37 | |
With the architect with that in mind. | 2025-03-11 12:06:40 | |
And so you know, I could read. | 2025-03-11 12:06:47 | |
Through it. But you know, I think it was clear in. | 2025-03-11 12:06:49 | |
To what the? | 2025-03-11 12:06:52 | |
Where what the status was with re. | 2025-03-11 12:06:55 | |
Regards to this in terms of communicating with. | 2025-03-11 12:06:58 | |
Between the Commissioners and this Board. | 2025-03-11 12:07:01 | |
And the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:07:04 | |
And the Commissioners? | 2025-03-11 12:07:07 | |
Are not involved in any other way shape. | 2025-03-11 12:07:10 | |
Perform with regard to the deep. | 2025-03-11 12:07:13 | |
Of the improvements that's left to this board. | 2025-03-11 12:07:16 | |
And the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:07:19 | |
And so the whole purpose of this was not only. | 2025-03-11 12:07:23 | |
To inform, but also to say hey. | 2025-03-11 12:07:25 | |
We're going to be closing this thing. | 2025-03-11 12:07:29 | |
In short order, if you. | 2025-03-11 12:07:31 | |
Well, and so you really need to be. | 2025-03-11 12:07:35 | |
Moving forward, with regards to putting the. | 2025-03-11 12:07:38 | |
Designed together so that. | 2025-03-11 12:07:41 | |
You know that that thing is built just to the. | 2025-03-11 12:07:44 | |
Effects of what you need to be able to do your job. | 2025-03-11 12:07:47 | |
Effectively and you know making sure that all. | 2025-03-11 12:07:50 | |
There, the twos are there. | 2025-03-11 12:07:56 | |
That you got once that it's in your budget? | 2025-03-11 12:07:59 | |
You can add to the once. | 2025-03-11 12:08:02 | |
And prioritize those so that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:05 | |
What I laid out in my memo SO. | 2025-03-11 12:08:08 | |
You know that came the same month as. | 2025-03-11 12:08:11 | |
The board meeting so I think in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:08:14 | |
Of informing, you know, I think the. | 2025-03-11 12:08:17 | |
Commissioners have done their job with regards to. | 2025-03-11 12:08:20 | |
To going forward, I will. | 2025-03-11 12:08:23 | |
As the last comment, just say that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:26 | |
Doctor Kneel has advised me. | 2025-03-11 12:08:29 | |
Advise all of you that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:32 | |
That. | 2025-03-11 12:08:35 | |
You can contact him anytime with. | 2025-03-11 12:08:38 | |
To any issues that that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:41 | |
That you have or that you want to discuss. | 2025-03-11 12:08:44 | |
With the commissioners and Doctor Knabel. | 2025-03-11 12:08:47 | |
Says I'm open for any communications. | 2025-03-11 12:08:50 | |
He said. I haven't received a phone call from anybody. | 2025-03-11 12:08:53 | |
In 20 4th Ave. I'm basically available. | 2025-03-11 12:08:56 | |
For any communication. | 2025-03-11 12:08:59 | |
That somebody wants to make with me. | 2025-03-11 12:09:02 | |
And the other commissioners are the same and I can tell you if there's personal. | 2025-03-11 12:09:05 | |
Experience and working with them, they take off. | 2025-03-11 12:09:08 | |
Phone calls so if this board has any quest. | 2025-03-11 12:09:11 | |
With regard to where the Commissioners. | 2025-03-11 12:09:14 | |
Stand or who's doing what or whatever. | 2025-03-11 12:09:17 | |
I'm available, the commissioners are at. | 2025-03-11 12:09:20 | |
Available. | 2025-03-11 12:09:23 | |
And that is the same with everybody. | 2025-03-11 12:09:26 | |
Everybody else that has an interest in this. | 2025-03-11 12:09:29 | |
Background noise starts now. | 2025-03-11 12:09:29 | |
Make those comments that you know the commissioners are. | 2025-03-11 12:09:32 | |
Are doing their best to move. | 2025-03-11 12:09:35 | |
Forward with regards to this process. | 2025-03-11 12:09:38 | |
And they're not going to be in the middle. | 2025-03-11 12:09:41 | |
Specifically, the design. | 2025-03-11 12:09:44 | |
Where the plugs are going to be? | 2025-03-11 12:09:47 | |
Whatever the case may be. | 2025-03-11 12:09:50 | |
Foot with good cover under the building update it's like. | 2025-03-11 12:09:54 | |
Clarify all this because we have. | 2025-03-11 12:09:56 | |
Yeah, I feel like anyway. | 2025-03-11 12:09:59 | |
What was in the minutes? | 2025-03-11 12:10:02 | |
Was one of those cons. That was one. | 2025-03-11 12:10:05 | |
Person's comment. | 2025-03-11 12:10:08 | |
Sam, he walks in. The minute I got it, I think it was. | 2025-03-11 12:10:12 | |
Important to respond to what is in. | 2025-03-11 12:10:14 | |
Minutes that you know an allegation. | 2025-03-11 12:10:18 | |
Are not communicating well. | 2025-03-11 12:10:20 | |
I'm kind of that. That person that is. | 2025-03-11 12:10:24 | |
Representing both boards and statutorily and. | 2025-03-11 12:10:27 | |
Put in that position. | 2025-03-11 12:10:30 | |
And so you know. | 2025-03-11 12:10:33 | |
It's a balancing act in terms of going. | 2025-03-11 12:10:36 | |
Back and forth, but there's very clear lines that are. | 2025-03-11 12:10:39 | |
Wrong here as to who's doing what and that's why. | 2025-03-11 12:10:42 | |
To get the e-mail app so I could lay that. | 2025-03-11 12:10:45 | |
So that there's no misconception as to. | 2025-03-11 12:10:48 | |
What? And I think Christie laid that out at the last. | 2025-03-11 12:10:51 | |
Meeting also, I think she said that the commissioners are. | 2025-03-11 12:10:54 | |
Or not involved in micro. | 2025-03-11 12:10:57 | |
From managing what's going on here, they're buying a building for you that. | 2025-03-11 12:11:00 | |
What they're doing and they're going to provide 1.1 million. | 2025-03-11 12:11:03 | |
That might have been that might have been some. | 2025-03-11 12:11:06 | |
You know, I talked about, I don't know if we actually talked about it in the meeting, right? | 2025-03-11 12:11:09 | |
Like I I came up here before the meeting and we talked. | 2025-03-11 12:11:12 | |
Yeah. I don't know if they got into the meeting OK. All right. | 2025-03-11 12:11:15 | |
Rick, I've got one quick question. So, uh, so with. | 2025-03-11 12:11:18 | |
That in mind, I mean at what point can. | 2025-03-11 12:11:21 | |
The board and Doctor Harrison Char. | 2025-03-11 12:11:24 | |
Start working with the architect to start. | 2025-03-11 12:11:27 | |
Start doing the design phase even though we don't own the building. | 2025-03-11 12:11:30 | |
Yeah, yesterday, yeah, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:11:33 | |
Can I have last name that would be appropriate for us to have a? | 2025-03-11 12:11:36 | |
You know a a product. | 2025-03-11 12:11:39 | |
Maybe not a public meeting to start. | 2025-03-11 12:11:42 | |
I'm currently working on. | 2025-03-11 12:11:45 | |
You know, designer, architect is is we have to. | 2025-03-11 12:11:48 | |
I don't remember what the answer was. I asked the question but I can't remember what. | 2025-03-11 12:11:51 | |
What the answer was if we had to get RFP? | 2025-03-11 12:11:54 | |
To get that process started because I know that takes a while. | 2025-03-11 12:11:57 | |
So that's stuff we were gonna cover under Building Update. | 2025-03-11 12:12:00 | |
OK, OK, OK. Well, we can start. | 2025-03-11 12:12:03 | |
I can go into more detail about the process then. | 2025-03-11 12:12:06 | |
OK, I got you. OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:09 | |
So should we take that comment out? | 2025-03-11 12:12:12 | |
Well, I think there's a motion on the floor too. | 2025-03-11 12:12:15 | |
To approve the management, Rick is giving his update then. | 2025-03-11 12:12:18 | |
My motion still saying. | 2025-03-11 12:12:21 | |
That is a minute, Yeah, sure. | 2025-03-11 12:12:24 | |
OK. Second, a few seconds. Yeah, OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:27 | |
Nobody. OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:30 | |
And carries the minutes are approved. All right, on to budget. | 2025-03-11 12:12:33 | |
Does anybody have any questions about budget? | 2025-03-11 12:12:36 | |
Nobody has any questions about the budget. | 2025-03-11 12:12:45 | |
What do we? | 2025-03-11 12:13:00 | |
Doing with it. | 2025-03-11 12:13:03 | |
This is a separate vet. | 2025-03-11 12:13:22 | |
From the seasonal first. | 2025-03-11 12:13:25 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:13:34 | |
There's no real plan. | 2025-03-11 12:13:36 | |
To go with an avian vaccine at this point. | 2025-03-11 12:13:40 | |
There have. | 2025-03-11 12:13:43 | |
Sense of attention. Recently you said that state level for the. | 2025-03-11 12:13:46 | |
Flew through the occasion. | 2025-03-11 12:13:49 | |
Mercer County, Ohio. | 2025-03-11 12:13:52 | |
And they're up to human. | 2025-03-11 12:13:55 | |
Cases now spread out across the US, but. | 2025-03-11 12:13:58 | |
And I bring it up. | 2025-03-11 12:14:01 | |
Because we had a case over the weekend at the hosp. | 2025-03-11 12:14:04 | |
Yesterday, so there. | 2025-03-11 12:14:09 | |
There have been the elegant terms to be popular. | 2025-03-11 12:14:13 | |
Two populations of poultry in Washington. | 2025-03-11 12:14:16 | |
The county is the closest bird. | 2025-03-11 12:14:19 | |
Before we could just go on about. | 2025-03-11 12:14:22 | |
I need we need to go back up to budget and improve those. | 2025-03-11 12:14:25 | |
I need a motion. | 2025-03-11 12:14:31 | |
So moved. | 2025-03-11 12:14:34 | |
OK. Any opposed? OK, go ahead. Just. | 2025-03-11 12:14:37 | |
OK, go on. | 2025-03-11 12:14:40 | |
Oh yeah, that's all. | 2025-03-11 12:15:01 | |
And 1:00 and 2:00. | 2025-03-11 12:15:04 | |
That's awesome. Thank. | 2025-03-11 12:15:10 | |
Anything more on the? | 2025-03-11 12:15:13 | |
H5 N one Doctor Harris No. | 2025-03-11 12:15:16 | |
OK, building update. | 2025-03-11 12:15:19 | |
So we're just gonna cover what we're gonna. | 2025-03-11 12:15:22 | |
Yes, the the building is good. | 2025-03-11 12:15:25 | |
Christie lit a fire under. | 2025-03-11 12:15:28 | |
Meeting to get that done sooner than later. | 2025-03-11 12:15:31 | |
And yes, the health. | 2025-03-11 12:15:34 | |
In particular, the people that run the health department. | 2025-03-11 12:15:37 | |
Are going to have the most input on what you want that for. | 2025-03-11 12:15:40 | |
Yes, we need to hire an art. | 2025-03-11 12:15:43 | |
Architects, now the architect we hire. | 2025-03-11 12:15:46 | |
There doesn't have to be the architect that we ultimately. | 2025-03-11 12:15:49 | |
Because once we get. | 2025-03-11 12:15:52 | |
Plans and you guys have everything that you have. | 2025-03-11 12:15:55 | |
Have to have that, you have to have the generator way. | 2025-03-11 12:15:58 | |
The I see everything. | 2025-03-11 12:16:01 | |
Budget, then actually we'll get bids from. | 2025-03-11 12:16:04 | |
People and the Commissioners will make a decision on. | 2025-03-11 12:16:07 | |
Who is going to actually get the big? | 2025-03-11 12:16:10 | |
Because they have to pay for it so. | 2025-03-11 12:16:13 | |
So no, we have complete control over. | 2025-03-11 12:16:16 | |
What we want in that building and the committee. | 2025-03-11 12:16:19 | |
Don't care, we just have to stay. | 2025-03-11 12:16:22 | |
I guess my question is still though. | 2025-03-11 12:16:25 | |
Do we need to submit an RFP? | 2025-03-11 12:16:28 | |
Proposal Do we need to have the committee? | 2025-03-11 12:16:31 | |
Need to get up the ability to get an RFP or. | 2025-03-11 12:16:34 | |
Get one. We've already sort of generated a plan for the 1st. | 2025-03-11 12:16:37 | |
Words y'all seen from the I think. | 2025-03-11 12:16:40 | |
My understanding is we can just. | 2025-03-11 12:16:43 | |
Go ahead and pay for an architect to start on the plan. | 2025-03-11 12:16:46 | |
That that's that's independent. | 2025-03-11 12:16:49 | |
That doesn't mean that we're going to use that architect in the. | 2025-03-11 12:16:52 | |
In the final thing, right once. Once the. | 2025-03-11 12:16:55 | |
I mean what I'd recommend just process. | 2025-03-11 12:16:58 | |
That's why is to let the. | 2025-03-11 12:17:01 | |
Put together preliminary drawing in. | 2025-03-11 12:17:04 | |
Then get. | 2025-03-11 12:17:07 | |
Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:17:10 | |
All this with the employees, the people that are. | 2025-03-11 12:17:13 | |
Gonna be working there. | 2025-03-11 12:17:16 | |
But then. | 2025-03-11 12:17:16 | |
Ask questions, you know, hey, you'd be better off for us in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:17:19 | |
Of our workflow as this was here and that was here yeah so let's. | 2025-03-11 12:17:22 | |
So when we first started looking at building. | 2025-03-11 12:17:25 | |
You know, we had two architect propos. | 2025-03-11 12:17:28 | |
For this particular building, Lynn Armstrong. | 2025-03-11 12:17:31 | |
Was one of the recommendations from the county. | 2025-03-11 12:17:34 | |
And then Pinkerton and he. | 2025-03-11 12:17:37 | |
When it actually came out and stood with us outside the building. | 2025-03-11 12:17:40 | |
Walk through the building with this and you know he. | 2025-03-11 12:17:43 | |
We've got several phases, you know, he's got the initial phase. | 2025-03-11 12:17:46 | |
With working with Tom and Charlotte. | 2025-03-11 12:17:49 | |
The employees and doing the initial site design for. | 2025-03-11 12:17:52 | |
For a fee and then if we want him to proceed. | 2025-03-11 12:17:55 | |
With the next phase and then the following the. | 2025-03-11 12:17:58 | |
Final phase of contractor. | 2025-03-11 12:18:01 | |
Blueprints and all that, all that stuff. | 2025-03-11 12:18:04 | |
Three separate phases he you know that they would do but. | 2025-03-11 12:18:07 | |
You know he's already been out there. He's. | 2025-03-11 12:18:10 | |
He's got a good understanding he price wise was. | 2025-03-11 12:18:13 | |
They're virtually saying when Armstrong and him were virtually the same. | 2025-03-11 12:18:16 | |
I mean, but you can certainly get another bid if you want another. | 2025-03-11 12:18:19 | |
But he we had a statutory. | 2025-03-11 12:18:22 | |
Process for the appraisal, we had to have three bids. | 2025-03-11 12:18:25 | |
So you're telling me we don't have to have that? | 2025-03-11 12:18:28 | |
You select who you want, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:18:31 | |
And you select who you want. | 2025-03-11 12:18:34 | |
And so that would be the first step for this board to solve. | 2025-03-11 12:18:37 | |
Select who they want as an architect. | 2025-03-11 12:18:40 | |
And then you ultimately as you go. | 2025-03-11 12:18:43 | |
Through whatever process you decide in terms of. | 2025-03-11 12:18:46 | |
Making this happen that architect will. | 2025-03-11 12:18:49 | |
Use the drawings. | 2025-03-11 12:18:52 | |
Bid drawing and so once. | 2025-03-11 12:18:55 | |
You get that then. | 2025-03-11 12:18:58 | |
The commissioners can go through. | 2025-03-11 12:19:01 | |
Their process of just going ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:19:04 | |
Doing the advertising and everything for the bid. | 2025-03-11 12:19:07 | |
All have done what you're trying to. This is what we want and then. | 2025-03-11 12:19:13 | |
It's just a matter of getting the bid. | 2025-03-11 12:19:16 | |
For that and then passing it back to this board and letting. | 2025-03-11 12:19:19 | |
The board make a decision as to how you want to go forward. | 2025-03-11 12:19:22 | |
Because depending on the contractor, some of the contractors. | 2025-03-11 12:19:25 | |
To do the secondary architectural stuff in house. | 2025-03-11 12:19:28 | |
Versus an outside entity, so some. | 2025-03-11 12:19:31 | |
Some of them have you know, in order to value. | 2025-03-11 12:19:34 | |
Here they do it themselves and have their own people that. | 2025-03-11 12:19:37 | |
Safe cost, so depending on which. | 2025-03-11 12:19:40 | |
Bill. | 2025-03-11 12:19:40 | |
Building firm you end up going with you know they may not. | 2025-03-11 12:19:43 | |
Need the second and third. | 2025-03-11 12:19:46 | |
Say Pinkerton. You know they. | 2025-03-11 12:19:49 | |
Do it in house so but the first phase is. | 2025-03-11 12:19:52 | |
You know, so my question though is so. | 2025-03-11 12:19:55 | |
Let's just say it's Pinkerton that we choose and. | 2025-03-11 12:19:58 | |
What if you know he wants, you know upfront money? | 2025-03-11 12:20:01 | |
We need to get started. I mean, where's where's that money come from? | 2025-03-11 12:20:04 | |
We submit it to my understanding. | 2025-03-11 12:20:07 | |
According to the minutes from the last meeting, is that this? | 2025-03-11 12:20:10 | |
Board approved $170,000. | 2025-03-11 12:20:13 | |
That you have to put forward with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:20:16 | |
To this process. And so you've got that money, right? | 2025-03-11 12:20:19 | |
To go ahead and pay for this ongoing. | 2025-03-11 12:20:22 | |
Effort as to how you choose to allocate your. | 2025-03-11 12:20:25 | |
Sources. So let me clarify one thing and I think. | 2025-03-11 12:20:28 | |
Somebody, the commissioners are buying the building. | 2025-03-11 12:20:31 | |
We have 1.1 plus the HFM. | 2025-03-11 12:20:34 | |
Money to do the reset. | 2025-03-11 12:20:37 | |
That's what we. | 2025-03-11 12:20:37 | |
So the arcade. | 2025-03-11 12:20:40 | |
Tech is going to come out of our pocket. | 2025-03-11 12:20:43 | |
So we, we, we just need to make a decision on which one. | 2025-03-11 12:20:46 | |
So, Tom, do you have a preference? | 2025-03-11 12:20:50 | |
On who we get to do the preliminary? | 2025-03-11 12:20:53 | |
You know my my preferences, of course is that they would base. | 2025-03-11 12:20:56 | |
What they're doing off of the floor plan that. | 2025-03-11 12:20:58 | |
Came up with through the department because we've all kind of metal. | 2025-03-11 12:21:02 | |
That tried to, you know, go close to the exam and. | 2025-03-11 12:21:05 | |
We like the the original plan we came up with. I don't have a prep. | 2025-03-11 12:21:11 | |
For our architectural design. | 2025-03-11 12:21:13 | |
I think it's reasonable that, you know, we have somebody. | 2025-03-11 12:21:17 | |
A set of workable floor plan that would be. | 2025-03-11 12:21:20 | |
The code basically and then. | 2025-03-11 12:21:23 | |
From there, the 2nd and 3rd phases would probably be. | 2025-03-11 12:21:26 | |
Contingent upon. Contingent upon. | 2025-03-11 12:21:29 | |
You know what actual construction companies looked at? But. | 2025-03-11 12:21:32 | |
Yeah, I think, I mean, I think we should move ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:21:35 | |
With a architect. | 2025-03-11 12:21:38 | |
An architect I don't. | 2025-03-11 12:21:41 | |
To have a preference one way or the other, as long as they're going. | 2025-03-11 12:21:44 | |
To take, you know, our input for what we. | 2025-03-11 12:21:47 | |
So I will go to the. | 2025-03-11 12:21:50 | |
Say that I personally vetted the two. | 2025-03-11 12:21:53 | |
People because I have friends in the business and I'm not going to say. | 2025-03-11 12:21:56 | |
Because they didn't give you permission to, but I I would. | 2025-03-11 12:21:59 | |
Highly recommend the sky. | 2025-03-11 12:22:02 | |
Pinkerton, yeah. And again, he's ready. He's ready to. | 2025-03-11 12:22:05 | |
Yeah, he's so, I mean all your. | 2025-03-11 12:22:08 | |
All I gotta do is make phone call. | 2025-03-11 12:22:11 | |
So I mean, and it's what it was, in fact. | 2025-03-11 12:22:14 | |
The 84 papers and yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:22:17 | |
Yeah, I think this board needs to make a motion. | 2025-03-11 12:22:20 | |
And in terms of selecting. | 2025-03-11 12:22:23 | |
It is that you want, so I would make the motion to move. | 2025-03-11 12:22:26 | |
Forward Pinkerton. | 2025-03-11 12:22:29 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:22:29 | |
All in favor. | 2025-03-11 12:22:32 | |
Anybody opposed? Motion carried. | 2025-03-11 12:22:35 | |
And so the process is left. | 2025-03-11 12:22:47 | |
70 could be used for anything, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:22:53 | |
Towards the recession. | 2025-03-11 12:22:56 | |
That wasn't clear to me before. OK, that was I'm sorry. | 2025-03-11 12:22:59 | |
After the last meeting I went to their. | 2025-03-11 12:23:02 | |
And yes, that money, they just said we can. | 2025-03-11 12:23:05 | |
They're not putting it towards the building. | 2025-03-11 12:23:08 | |
My understanding and I guess just one other thing to add. | 2025-03-11 12:23:11 | |
To the building. So John, you know we get. | 2025-03-11 12:23:14 | |
Talk to the current tenants and they're going to be but they're. | 2025-03-11 12:23:17 | |
They're leaving all the all the things that are we. | 2025-03-11 12:23:20 | |
Saw in that building they're going to be leaving all of that so that. | 2025-03-11 12:23:23 | |
All you know helpful for. | 2025-03-11 12:23:26 | |
Saving money and costs. | 2025-03-11 12:23:29 | |
Desk, chairs and also in the building. | 2025-03-11 12:23:32 | |
Purpose. We're not going to have a tenant to deal with in there. | 2025-03-11 12:23:35 | |
We know when they're moving out. | 2025-03-11 12:23:38 | |
John acted like it was soon so. | 2025-03-11 12:23:41 | |
February 28th. I'm yeah. February 20. I thought they were. | 2025-03-11 12:23:44 | |
Gonna be gone by March 1st but I don't know if they are officially. | 2025-03-11 12:23:47 | |
Shortly but. | 2025-03-11 12:23:50 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:23:56 | |
Yeah, I just want to make sure they were going to be affected by. | 2025-03-11 12:23:59 | |
John told me they were. | 2025-03-11 12:24:02 | |
Yeah, OK, yeah, he told me they were supposed to be, but yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:24:05 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:24:08 | |
Anybody else want to say anything about the building? | 2025-03-11 12:24:11 | |
***. | 2025-03-11 12:24:14 | |
OK, on to new business. | 2025-03-11 12:24:17 | |
Coronary, please. | 2025-03-11 12:24:20 | |
Yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:24:23 | |
We have a. | 2025-03-11 12:24:26 | |
Issue with the corner I. | 2025-03-11 12:24:29 | |
Spoken with the new corner, I think 4 on 4 separate. | 2025-03-11 12:24:32 | |
January 1st this issue. | 2025-03-11 12:24:38 | |
There was a guy who was. | 2025-03-11 12:24:41 | |
Under Hospice care, we went through the cardiologist's office. | 2025-03-11 12:24:44 | |
And died basically. | 2025-03-11 12:24:47 | |
Cardiologist's office he was. | 2025-03-11 12:24:50 | |
Was not coded or attempted to do. | 2025-03-11 12:24:53 | |
Patient because he's been hospital status. | 2025-03-11 12:24:56 | |
But the office didn't really know what to do. | 2025-03-11 12:24:59 | |
And so the office called the coroner. | 2025-03-11 12:25:02 | |
Who didn't do anything. | 2025-03-11 12:25:05 | |
The Funeral Home wouldn't pick up the body because the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:08 | |
Corner didn't release the body and this. | 2025-03-11 12:25:11 | |
A doctor's office called the police. | 2025-03-11 12:25:14 | |
Who came and said, well, this is not a crime or. | 2025-03-11 12:25:17 | |
We're not involved. | 2025-03-11 12:25:20 | |
On the office who had a. | 2025-03-11 12:25:23 | |
Dead patients put a sheet over the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:26 | |
Patients hiding into a wheelchair and if you. | 2025-03-11 12:25:29 | |
From the office in professional art. | 2025-03-11 12:25:32 | |
Building across the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:35 | |
Through the hospital and parked him outside of security. | 2025-03-11 12:25:38 | |
To get a burial transit form. | 2025-03-11 12:25:41 | |
Who? | 2025-03-11 12:25:44 | |
There were several requests. | 2025-03-11 12:25:48 | |
Did everyone here see weakened Bernie? | 2025-03-11 12:25:50 | |
Very reminiscent. | 2025-03-11 12:25:53 | |
So. | 2025-03-11 12:25:57 | |
I got involved once. The security was there and they didn't know what. | 2025-03-11 12:26:00 | |
Going on. So we talked. | 2025-03-11 12:26:02 | |
Up in the corner, we we hope that we. | 2025-03-11 12:26:05 | |
Have corrected this issue. | 2025-03-11 12:26:09 | |
We've had issues in the past with a. | 2025-03-11 12:26:12 | |
A corner a few years ago. | 2025-03-11 12:26:15 | |
And you know, we had looked into. | 2025-03-11 12:26:17 | |
Trying to establish. | 2025-03-11 12:26:20 | |
Parameters for them is the health option we have to. | 2025-03-11 12:26:24 | |
In the health department, I have to, ultimately. | 2025-03-11 12:26:27 | |
Certificate from the health department also. | 2025-03-11 12:26:30 | |
Have to maintain records of all the deaths so. | 2025-03-11 12:26:33 | |
So we do have, you know, input into what. | 2025-03-11 12:26:36 | |
Goes on, but there isn't. | 2025-03-11 12:26:39 | |
Really any way to directly approach? | 2025-03-11 12:26:42 | |
Corner issues with an outside agency other than approaching the corner. | 2025-03-11 12:26:45 | |
Themselves, themselves, themselves. We've done that. | 2025-03-11 12:26:48 | |
So we'll see if this is going to become an. | 2025-03-11 12:26:51 | |
This is kind of. | 2025-03-11 12:26:54 | |
Tom Macab. | 2025-03-11 12:26:57 | |
To to Really. | 2025-03-11 12:27:00 | |
You know, something could easily it could have been. | 2025-03-11 12:27:03 | |
Easily released by the corner the. | 2025-03-11 12:27:06 | |
Funeral Home would have gone to the office and picked the body up. | 2025-03-11 12:27:09 | |
And that would have been the end of it had the coin. | 2025-03-11 12:27:12 | |
What was the coroner's reason for not releasing? | 2025-03-11 12:27:18 | |
He thought the office would just know. | 2025-03-11 12:27:21 | |
If he said that they were going to do an autopsy, that that. | 2025-03-11 12:27:24 | |
Then the body was released. | 2025-03-11 12:27:27 | |
And you know, you know, we, we, we had a. | 2025-03-11 12:27:30 | |
A long talk about how office depths are new. | 2025-03-11 12:27:33 | |
You know, at least involve a. | 2025-03-11 12:27:36 | |
It it it really was terminology. | 2025-03-11 12:27:42 | |
And and then I think it it. | 2025-03-11 12:27:45 | |
Sort of devolved down to the person who's getting a lot of calls. | 2025-03-11 12:27:48 | |
They thought they were done and we're going to do anything and even the police try. | 2025-03-11 12:27:51 | |
You know, but they didn't without a crime. | 2025-03-11 12:27:54 | |
Well, the Funeral Home could have. | 2025-03-11 12:27:57 | |
The phone call and called the corner and said this body really? | 2025-03-11 12:28:00 | |
And been done, I mean. | 2025-03-11 12:28:03 | |
Like a lot of people. | 2025-03-11 12:28:05 | |
MMM, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:28:06 | |
Yeah, it was. It was one of the things for this. | 2025-03-11 12:28:09 | |
Back over the hospital. | 2025-03-11 12:28:12 | |
Part of the part of the deal was the corner. | 2025-03-11 12:28:15 | |
An unusual circumstance which should be there. | 2025-03-11 12:28:18 | |
You know that's what they do is they do nothing. | 2025-03-11 12:28:21 | |
Unusual circumstances here was the case where clearly. | 2025-03-11 12:28:24 | |
Did not know what to do and at that point you should have stepped up. | 2025-03-11 12:28:30 | |
And said, OK guys, let me make a couple calls for you. | 2025-03-11 12:28:33 | |
How it's done and that doesn't happen. | 2025-03-11 12:28:36 | |
True. | 2025-03-11 12:28:39 | |
Yeah. So we're we're hopefully that. | 2025-03-11 12:28:42 | |
That issue has been addressed and we're going that route. | 2025-03-11 12:28:45 | |
And this is sort of ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:28:48 | |
For you guys, was the patient in a constant? | 2025-03-11 12:28:51 | |
The patient was unaccompanied. | 2025-03-11 12:28:54 | |
Treated like an in home depth, yeah, it's just. | 2025-03-11 12:29:03 | |
Been a little more tender. Yeah, they got a a water. | 2025-03-11 12:29:09 | |
From the hospital about the guy. | 2025-03-11 12:29:12 | |
You know, hide into a wheelchair outside the security office. | 2025-03-11 12:29:15 | |
It's a very public place, you know, in the afternoon. | 2025-03-11 12:29:18 | |
And yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:29:21 | |
In the future, we're keeping a close eye on cause. | 2025-03-11 12:29:30 | |
Of death and things like that, we get a. | 2025-03-11 12:29:33 | |
Function. | 2025-03-11 12:29:36 | |
Should also probably bring up that all these. | 2025-03-11 12:29:39 | |
A corner from the previous. | 2025-03-11 12:29:42 | |
Were terminated because this is a. | 2025-03-11 12:29:45 | |
Not only a new coroner who has had a job before, but all. | 2025-03-11 12:29:48 | |
To his administration. | 2025-03-11 12:29:54 | |
Old business. | 2025-03-11 12:30:06 | |
I have some old business. This is a state. | 2025-03-11 12:30:09 | |
So we talked about the septic. | 2025-03-11 12:30:12 | |
System thing and so. | 2025-03-11 12:30:15 | |
Rick has another alternative. | 2025-03-11 12:30:18 | |
Which we're having a small executive session for which. | 2025-03-11 12:30:21 | |
Only certain people can go because it's unpublished. | 2025-03-11 12:30:24 | |
And then after that, we'll be coming up and after we. | 2025-03-11 12:30:27 | |
We will get back to you all on an altern. | 2025-03-11 12:30:33 | |
Replace. | 2025-03-11 12:30:42 | |
Can't get it done any other way. | 2025-03-11 12:30:45 | |
We don't know that all. | 2025-03-11 12:30:51 | |
Details where it's going to explain it to us and. | 2025-03-11 12:30:54 | |
In which we can only have small groups of people. | 2025-03-11 12:30:57 | |
And yes, because it would be considered a meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:31:00 | |
If we. | 2025-03-11 12:31:03 | |
Held it otherwise with three members of this board it. | 2025-03-11 12:31:06 | |
Not considered a meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:31:09 | |
What we're trying to do is to get. | 2025-03-11 12:31:12 | |
Members of the board. | 2025-03-11 12:31:15 | |
The health department together and. | 2025-03-11 12:31:18 | |
Discuss all the nuances. | 2025-03-11 12:31:21 | |
And it is complicated and drive. | 2025-03-11 12:31:24 | |
Now we're talking about that before the meeting. Umm. | 2025-03-11 12:31:27 | |
There's two different statutes that allow you to. | 2025-03-11 12:31:30 | |
Set up. | 2025-03-11 12:31:33 | |
District and. | 2025-03-11 12:31:36 | |
That's Title 13 and Title 36. | 2025-03-11 12:31:39 | |
Each have different ways that you can set up. | 2025-03-11 12:31:42 | |
About the district and pros and cons. | 2025-03-11 12:31:45 | |
In terms of. | 2025-03-11 12:31:48 | |
To use and also. | 2025-03-11 12:31:51 | |
Considerations that need to be made with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:31:54 | |
To the size of the territory. | 2025-03-11 12:31:57 | |
That you're going to bring into the district and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:00 | |
All these need to be vetted with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:32:03 | |
To the pros and the cons so that we can make it. | 2025-03-11 12:32:06 | |
Informative and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:09 | |
An appropriate decision with regards to moving forward. | 2025-03-11 12:32:12 | |
With. | 2025-03-11 12:32:15 | |
District we want and how we want that district. | 2025-03-11 12:32:18 | |
To operate and so I got a lot of. | 2025-03-11 12:32:21 | |
You know this and that. | 2025-03-11 12:32:24 | |
To consider when it comes to going through the. | 2025-03-11 12:32:27 | |
So that's. | 2025-03-11 12:32:30 | |
The whole. | 2025-03-11 12:32:30 | |
Purpose of getting us together and it. | 2025-03-11 12:32:33 | |
It's too complicated to sit down and do this and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:37 | |
This setting and I prefer doing. | 2025-03-11 12:32:39 | |
Things in a public meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:32:42 | |
Through experience of. | 2025-03-11 12:32:46 | |
I found that we need. | 2025-03-11 12:32:48 | |
You take the whole day off if we're going to do that. | 2025-03-11 12:32:52 | |
So it's better to get. | 2025-03-11 12:32:54 | |
A group together and invent all this. | 2025-03-11 12:32:58 | |
And then expand that to the full. | 2025-03-11 12:33:01 | |
Let the full ball. | 2025-03-11 12:33:03 | |
Ask questions. | 2025-03-11 12:33:06 | |
And we can go forward from there. | 2025-03-11 12:33:10 | |
They're the ones that would pass the order. | 2025-03-11 12:33:16 | |
On Title 36. | 2025-03-11 12:33:22 | |
Title 13 is a different setup where you're filing. | 2025-03-11 12:33:25 | |
Petition with idam. | 2025-03-11 12:33:28 | |
And going through just a different stack. | 2025-03-11 12:33:31 | |
The way I. | 2025-03-11 12:33:34 | |
Even it was titled 36 the ultimate you know. | 2025-03-11 12:33:37 | |
The commissioners have the option to decide it themselves. | 2025-03-11 12:33:43 | |
Set up a wastewater district and delegate it to them. | 2025-03-11 12:33:46 | |
But even if they do that. | 2025-03-11 12:33:49 | |
I'm sure veto power is not the right. | 2025-03-11 12:33:52 | |
Term for it, but the state can still say no. | 2025-03-11 12:33:55 | |
We've read your ordinance. We've read your plan. We don't like it. | 2025-03-11 12:33:58 | |
Start over. And So what we want to do for the? | 2025-03-11 12:34:01 | |
People who, you know, weren't willing to do this right the first time. | 2025-03-11 12:34:04 | |
You know, for the people who are going to want to start the. | 2025-03-11 12:34:07 | |
System pretty much as soon as the wastewater. | 2025-03-11 12:34:10 | |
District is in a factor of the commissioners approved. | 2025-03-11 12:34:13 | |
And so at that point, we don't want to have a scenario where we. | 2025-03-11 12:34:16 | |
Ongoing construction projects with the state. | 2025-03-11 12:34:19 | |
Declining on their review of the order. | 2025-03-11 12:34:22 | |
So we want to try to get things to organize it all. | 2025-03-11 12:34:25 | |
Want to make sure that we can actually give these people off? | 2025-03-11 12:34:31 | |
A proper legal Go ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:34:34 | |
And get the project started. | 2025-03-11 12:34:37 | |
We're looking at a handful of places currently. | 2025-03-11 12:34:40 | |
Cast is why the net is possible to specific up to. | 2025-03-11 12:34:46 | |
Yeah, I think that the. | 2025-03-11 12:34:49 | |
We talked to the commissioners, they sort. | 2025-03-11 12:34:52 | |
Boned his back. | 2025-03-11 12:34:55 | |
In fact, find workshops, we do workshop and then. | 2025-03-11 12:34:58 | |
By April, we should be able. | 2025-03-11 12:35:01 | |
Hopefully you can go out to speak with our project and and just. | 2025-03-11 12:35:07 | |
To kind of tell you what kind of. | 2025-03-11 12:35:10 | |
And sinking through the process. | 2025-03-11 12:35:13 | |
And looking at the complete statute with regards to a. | 2025-03-11 12:35:16 | |
Projections that you can get and. | 2025-03-11 12:35:19 | |
Trying to limit the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:22 | |
The ability of getting the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:25 | |
Because that adds to the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:28 | |
Kind that you have to go through the process and see. | 2025-03-11 12:35:31 | |
To me that. | 2025-03-11 12:35:34 | |
A happy place to land might be. | 2025-03-11 12:35:37 | |
Because we've got a range of anywhere from the South. | 2025-03-11 12:35:40 | |
Seven properties that we have right now that you could make a difference. | 2025-03-11 12:35:43 | |
Street all the way to. | 2025-03-11 12:35:46 | |
The whole unincorporated county. | 2025-03-11 12:35:49 | |
But this flow can only go to. | 2025-03-11 12:35:52 | |
A. What's it called? | 2025-03-11 12:35:55 | |
Unrestricted, Unrestricted waterway. | 2025-03-11 12:35:58 | |
Of which there's only one that we know of, and it's really not. | 2025-03-11 12:36:01 | |
An area that's in place. | 2025-03-11 12:36:04 | |
But but it is again it's another another project. | 2025-03-11 12:36:07 | |
Period. Another another hoops to make. | 2025-03-11 12:36:10 | |
So if we're able to identify all the prop. | 2025-03-11 12:36:13 | |
Properties that could take advantage of that. | 2025-03-11 12:36:16 | |
Then where? Where? | 2025-03-11 12:36:19 | |
Remedying the amount of objections that we. | 2025-03-11 12:36:22 | |
Week and a half because there's going to be a huge. | 2025-03-11 12:36:25 | |
Accounting that this doesn't apply to. | 2025-03-11 12:36:28 | |
That when you have the authority to establish fees. | 2025-03-11 12:36:31 | |
On these people they're going to come out of the woodwork with. | 2025-03-11 12:36:34 | |
Regards to that, I can just tell you. | 2025-03-11 12:36:37 | |
And so if we're able to limit. | 2025-03-11 12:36:40 | |
The exposure to the. | 2025-03-11 12:36:43 | |
That we can help with regards to this district. | 2025-03-11 12:36:46 | |
Were able to identify those and I think we can. | 2025-03-11 12:36:49 | |
And say OK, here's the layout of the property give. | 2025-03-11 12:36:52 | |
Exam specific notice with regards to that. | 2025-03-11 12:36:55 | |
I think we're limiting our fault. | 2025-03-11 12:36:58 | |
Here to objections and. | 2025-03-11 12:37:01 | |
Additional time. | 2025-03-11 12:37:01 | |
And we're able to hopefully. | 2025-03-11 12:37:04 | |
Get this thing through for the people that you. | 2025-03-11 12:37:07 | |
And have is available for. | 2025-03-11 12:37:10 | |
The people that don't need it now, but me in the future. | 2025-03-11 12:37:13 | |
Well, I'm author. | 2025-03-11 12:37:16 | |
Government and limited boards so. | 2025-03-11 12:37:19 | |
Can do this without another layer of bureaucracy. | 2025-03-11 12:37:22 | |
I support that and. | 2025-03-11 12:37:25 | |
That's the whole concept. | 2025-03-11 12:37:28 | |
Anybody else have anything else? | 2025-03-11 12:37:31 | |
Anybody have anything? | 2025-03-11 12:37:37 | |
I need a motion to enter in the meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:37:40 | |
Thank you people. Thank you. | 2025-03-11 12:37:46 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:38:07 | |
Right now it. | 2025-03-11 12:38:13 | |
Got back to the Commission there, so you know. | 2025-03-11 12:38:17 | |
I guess they wanted. | 2025-03-11 12:38:20 | |
Have the board to know that they are very. | 2025-03-11 12:38:23 | |
Call me if you have any questions. | 2025-03-11 12:38:25 | |
We haven't received any phone calls and now we're told we're not. | 2025-03-11 12:38:29 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:38:38 | |
Well. | 2025-03-11 12:38:43 | |

Anything before we get into? | 2025-03-11 18:02:16 | |
Our agenda. | 2025-03-11 18:02:19 | |
At this time, we're going to open up a public hearing on an Ord. | 2025-03-11 18:02:22 | |
Improving the issuance of general obligation bonds. | 2025-03-11 18:02:25 | |
The purpose of this is for the. | 2025-03-11 18:02:28 | |
Purchase of the Health Department building. | 2025-03-11 18:02:31 | |
Is there anyone from the public that would like to speak? | 2025-03-11 18:02:34 | |
For or against the issue? | 2025-03-11 18:02:37 | |

Going once, going twice. | 2025-03-11 18:02:43 | |
Alright, seeing. | 2025-03-11 18:02:46 | |
None. We will close the public hearing. | 2025-03-11 18:02:49 | |
We'll move on to old business. | 2025-03-11 18:02:52 | |
Item number one. | 2025-03-11 18:02:55 | |
Good evening. It's good to see you. | 2025-03-11 18:03:01 | |
This body, I don't think I've seen you all since. | 2025-03-11 18:03:04 | |
The this new body was formed, so it's not. | 2025-03-11 18:03:07 | |
I am Judge Maria Greenberg. | 2025-03-11 18:03:10 | |
I have two grants that we. | 2025-03-11 18:03:13 | |
The first being an additional appropriation for personnel. | 2025-03-11 18:03:16 | |
To round out three positions that. | 2025-03-11 18:03:19 | |
Work with the Veterans Court of Southern Indiana. | 2025-03-11 18:03:22 | |
For the duration of 2025. | 2025-03-11 18:03:25 | |
So that's what that additional appropriate. | 2025-03-11 18:03:28 | |
And that's why I delayed it too. | 2025-03-11 18:03:31 | |
I want to make sure the figures were correct so they're less than what I have. | 2025-03-11 18:03:34 | |
Originally advertised, but the items that amount. | 2025-03-11 18:03:37 | |
Here are accurate. | 2025-03-11 18:03:40 | |
On #1 #2. | 2025-03-11 18:03:43 | |

Made it there too. | 2025-03-11 18:04:40 | |
Here Mr. Brad Bingham online so. | 2025-03-11 18:04:43 | |
Good evening, members of the Council. Tim Berry with Crow Penny. | 2025-03-11 18:04:52 | |
Advisor on this? | 2025-03-11 18:04:55 | |
Project and Brad Bingham is here. | 2025-03-11 18:04:59 | |
Thornburg Online. | 2025-03-11 18:05:01 | |
Fred, do you wanna walk through the ordinance? | 2025-03-11 18:05:04 | |
And then we can talk about sure, the other. | 2025-03-11 18:05:07 | |
Yeah. Thanks, Tim. Happy to do. | 2025-03-11 18:05:10 | |
That and I I can hear everyone but. | 2025-03-11 18:05:13 | |
See things that hopefully focus in here and see me. | 2025-03-11 18:05:17 | |
Fine. Tell me if you have anything. OK, fantastic. | 2025-03-11 18:05:19 | |
As you mentioned and and Councillor Shoreman. | 2025-03-11 18:05:23 | |
The bond ordinance is for the. | 2025-03-11 18:05:26 | |
Purchase of the existing building to be used for the. | 2025-03-11 18:05:29 | |
Health Department. The ordinance would authorize the issue to. | 2025-03-11 18:05:32 | |
General obligation bonds in a maximum principal amount not to be. | 2025-03-11 18:05:35 | |
$3.2 million and. | 2025-03-11 18:05:38 | |
Pending the issuance of those bonds, it would authorize. | 2025-03-11 18:05:41 | |
The issuance of bond anticipation though, so bond. | 2025-03-11 18:05:44 | |
Face note for band is just a fancy. | 2025-03-11 18:05:47 | |
Work for interim financing and. | 2025-03-11 18:05:50 | |
Previous discussions to my understanding that the Council. | 2025-03-11 18:05:53 | |
Would like to do issue a ban for this. | 2025-03-11 18:05:56 | |
Financing with the intent that you're going. | 2025-03-11 18:05:59 | |
Free up money from your general fund that. | 2025-03-11 18:06:02 | |
To amortize the band so that bonds would never be issued. | 2025-03-11 18:06:05 | |
And that's perfectly fine to do, but. | 2025-03-11 18:06:08 | |
In order to abandon, you still have to authorize the the openly. | 2025-03-11 18:06:11 | |
The issuance of the bonds in case that would ever be necessary. | 2025-03-11 18:06:14 | |
That's really what this ordinance does, is it? | 2025-03-11 18:06:17 | |
Both arms and bands. Umm the. | 2025-03-11 18:06:20 | |
Proceeds will be used to finance the purchase of the existing. | 2025-03-11 18:06:23 | |
Building offers a small amount to be. | 2025-03-11 18:06:26 | |
Renovations to make it usable as the county. | 2025-03-11 18:06:29 | |
Health department facility, we also. | 2025-03-11 18:06:32 | |
Allow us to do what's called capitalized interest. | 2025-03-11 18:06:35 | |
So again, knowing that your overall plan of. | 2025-03-11 18:06:38 | |
Finances to shift some expenses from your general fund to. | 2025-03-11 18:06:41 | |
Public safety with fund. This is going to give me time. | 2025-03-11 18:06:44 | |
Time and doing capitalized interest gives you time to kind of figure out. | 2025-03-11 18:06:47 | |
And the shipping those expenses before? | 2025-03-11 18:06:50 | |
And start finding a source of revenue to pay pay the interest on. | 2025-03-11 18:06:53 | |
On the on the band and then again the proceeds because. | 2025-03-11 18:06:56 | |
Softly be used to pay the issuance for the. | 2025-03-11 18:06:59 | |
Transaction the. | 2025-03-11 18:07:02 | |
The ordinance also makes an additional appropriation, so. | 2025-03-11 18:07:05 | |
Again, because this amount wasn't included in your existing budget that. | 2025-03-11 18:07:08 | |
The purpose of the hearing was to allow folks. | 2025-03-11 18:07:11 | |
Asked about this additional appropriation, but it does allow. | 2025-03-11 18:07:14 | |
Make this the additional preparation $3.2 million at. | 2025-03-11 18:07:17 | |
Again, would be funded with the proceeds of the financing. | 2025-03-11 18:07:20 | |
Together with any investment earnings on those proceeds. | 2025-03-11 18:07:23 | |
The last last point to kind of point out in this, which is. | 2025-03-11 18:07:26 | |
Normally by anticipation, notes are secured. | 2025-03-11 18:07:29 | |
So we buy the proceeds of the bonds if and when issued. | 2025-03-11 18:07:32 | |
This ordinance does authorize. | 2025-03-11 18:07:35 | |
And the backup, the ability to levy. | 2025-03-11 18:07:38 | |
Tax to pay interest on the band if that were next. | 2025-03-11 18:07:41 | |
Necessary. And again, it's kind of because of the unique nature. | 2025-03-11 18:07:44 | |
This financing that we put that in here because. | 2025-03-11 18:07:47 | |
The Perks of the Band is going to. | 2025-03-11 18:07:50 | |
And how are they gonna get paid interest every six? | 2025-03-11 18:07:53 | |
Months until until the maturity of the band and. | 2025-03-11 18:07:56 | |
So again, we all understand the intent is to use your. | 2025-03-11 18:07:59 | |
Freedom, you know, general fund cash flow, but. | 2025-03-11 18:08:02 | |
Credit standpoint, it gets kind of hard for a bank or. | 2025-03-11 18:08:05 | |
Credit analyst to review that especially when when. | 2025-03-11 18:08:08 | |
That overall shift in the expenses may not have. | 2025-03-11 18:08:11 | |
Yeah. So again the the property tax levy. | 2025-03-11 18:08:14 | |
They backstop and pay interest on the case. | 2025-03-11 18:08:17 | |
That that would be necessary, but again, I don't know. | 2025-03-11 18:08:20 | |
Necessarily to state happiness, I'll pause. | 2025-03-11 18:08:23 | |
They're happy and quiet to know that, uh. | 2025-03-11 18:08:26 | |
This is not what I am. | 2025-03-11 18:08:32 | |
Happening. I anticipated our tax. | 2025-03-11 18:08:35 | |
Have an opinion? I anticipated that pay. | 2025-03-11 18:08:38 | |
Interest, I thought that's what we talked about that. | 2025-03-11 18:08:41 | |
We were going to pay the interest as we go. | 2025-03-11 18:08:44 | |
Can we still do that? Oh, we can. | 2025-03-11 18:08:47 | |
That is exactly what would be anticipated. | 2025-03-11 18:08:50 |

In regards to the e-mail. | 2025-03-11 12:04:42 | |
What I laid out is what the Commissioners are doing. | 2025-03-11 12:04:45 | |
And specifically. | 2025-03-11 12:04:48 | |

They're going to provide 1.1 million. | 2025-03-11 12:04:55 | |
For improvements. | 2025-03-11 12:04:58 | |
To that building. | 2025-03-11 12:05:00 | |
Uh. | 2025-03-11 12:05:01 | |
And of course, that's for budgetary purposes. | 2025-03-11 12:05:04 | |
For the Floyd County Health Department, so. | 2025-03-11 12:05:07 | |
They know what they have in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:05:10 | |
Being able to move forward that way. | 2025-03-11 12:05:13 | |
1.1 million obviously plus whatever. | 2025-03-11 12:05:16 | |
Additional monies that the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:05:19 | |

Umm add. | 2025-03-11 12:05:25 | |

Clothing on the property to be. | 2025-03-11 12:05:37 | |
Towards the end of April or early. | 2025-03-11 12:05:40 | |

With regard. | 2025-03-11 12:05:46 | |

You have identified all your wants. | 2025-03-11 12:05:58 | |
With regards to this building. | 2025-03-11 12:06:01 | |
So that that can be built into the plan. | 2025-03-11 12:06:04 | |
The process that. | 2025-03-11 12:06:07 | |
That I laid out with regards to this. | 2025-03-11 12:06:10 | |
Recommended Basically a bottoms up. | 2025-03-11 12:06:13 | |
Umm, that. | 2025-03-11 12:06:16 | |
What the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:06:19 | |
And board needs to do to deter. | 2025-03-11 12:06:22 | |
What type of design space is needed? | 2025-03-11 12:06:25 | |
Umm, to be able for the. | 2025-03-11 12:06:28 | |
Employees to do their. | 2025-03-11 12:06:31 | |
Job effectively. | 2025-03-11 12:06:34 | |
And. | 2025-03-11 12:06:34 | |
Plants needed to be developed. | 2025-03-11 12:06:37 | |
With the architect with that in mind. | 2025-03-11 12:06:40 | |
And so you know, I could read. | 2025-03-11 12:06:47 | |
Through it. But you know, I think it was clear in. | 2025-03-11 12:06:49 | |
To what the? | 2025-03-11 12:06:52 | |
Where what the status was with re. | 2025-03-11 12:06:55 | |
Regards to this in terms of communicating with. | 2025-03-11 12:06:58 | |
Between the Commissioners and this Board. | 2025-03-11 12:07:01 | |
And the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:07:04 | |
And the Commissioners? | 2025-03-11 12:07:07 | |
Are not involved in any other way shape. | 2025-03-11 12:07:10 | |
Perform with regard to the deep. | 2025-03-11 12:07:13 | |
Of the improvements that's left to this board. | 2025-03-11 12:07:16 | |
And the Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:07:19 | |
And so the whole purpose of this was not only. | 2025-03-11 12:07:23 | |
To inform, but also to say hey. | 2025-03-11 12:07:25 | |
We're going to be closing this thing. | 2025-03-11 12:07:29 | |
In short order, if you. | 2025-03-11 12:07:31 | |
Well, and so you really need to be. | 2025-03-11 12:07:35 | |
Moving forward, with regards to putting the. | 2025-03-11 12:07:38 | |
Designed together so that. | 2025-03-11 12:07:41 | |
You know that that thing is built just to the. | 2025-03-11 12:07:44 | |
Effects of what you need to be able to do your job. | 2025-03-11 12:07:47 | |

You can add to the once. | 2025-03-11 12:08:02 | |
And prioritize those so that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:05 | |
What I laid out in my memo SO. | 2025-03-11 12:08:08 | |
You know that came the same month as. | 2025-03-11 12:08:11 | |
The board meeting so I think in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:08:14 | |
Of informing, you know, I think the. | 2025-03-11 12:08:17 | |
Commissioners have done their job with regards to. | 2025-03-11 12:08:20 | |
To going forward, I will. | 2025-03-11 12:08:23 | |
As the last comment, just say that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:26 | |
Doctor Kneel has advised me. | 2025-03-11 12:08:29 | |
Advise all of you that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:32 | |
That. | 2025-03-11 12:08:35 | |
You can contact him anytime with. | 2025-03-11 12:08:38 | |
To any issues that that. | 2025-03-11 12:08:41 | |
That you have or that you want to discuss. | 2025-03-11 12:08:44 | |
With the commissioners and Doctor Knabel. | 2025-03-11 12:08:47 | |
Says I'm open for any communications. | 2025-03-11 12:08:50 | |
He said. I haven't received a phone call from anybody. | 2025-03-11 12:08:53 | |
In 20 4th Ave. I'm basically available. | 2025-03-11 12:08:56 | |
For any communication. | 2025-03-11 12:08:59 | |
That somebody wants to make with me. | 2025-03-11 12:09:02 | |
And the other commissioners are the same and I can tell you if there's personal. | 2025-03-11 12:09:05 | |
Experience and working with them, they take off. | 2025-03-11 12:09:08 | |
Phone calls so if this board has any quest. | 2025-03-11 12:09:11 | |
With regard to where the Commissioners. | 2025-03-11 12:09:14 | |
Stand or who's doing what or whatever. | 2025-03-11 12:09:17 | |
I'm available, the commissioners are at. | 2025-03-11 12:09:20 | |
Available. | 2025-03-11 12:09:23 | |
And that is the same with everybody. | 2025-03-11 12:09:26 | |
Everybody else that has an interest in this. | 2025-03-11 12:09:29 | |
Background noise starts now. | 2025-03-11 12:09:29 | |
Make those comments that you know the commissioners are. | 2025-03-11 12:09:32 | |
Are doing their best to move. | 2025-03-11 12:09:35 | |
Forward with regards to this process. | 2025-03-11 12:09:38 | |
And they're not going to be in the middle. | 2025-03-11 12:09:41 | |
Specifically, the design. | 2025-03-11 12:09:44 | |
Where the plugs are going to be? | 2025-03-11 12:09:47 | |
Whatever the case may be. | 2025-03-11 12:09:50 | |
Foot with good cover under the building update it's like. | 2025-03-11 12:09:54 | |
Clarify all this because we have. | 2025-03-11 12:09:56 | |
Yeah, I feel like anyway. | 2025-03-11 12:09:59 | |
What was in the minutes? | 2025-03-11 12:10:02 | |
Was one of those cons. That was one. | 2025-03-11 12:10:05 | |
Person's comment. | 2025-03-11 12:10:08 | |
Sam, he walks in. The minute I got it, I think it was. | 2025-03-11 12:10:12 | |
Important to respond to what is in. | 2025-03-11 12:10:14 | |
Minutes that you know an allegation. | 2025-03-11 12:10:18 | |
Are not communicating well. | 2025-03-11 12:10:20 | |
I'm kind of that. That person that is. | 2025-03-11 12:10:24 | |
Representing both boards and statutorily and. | 2025-03-11 12:10:27 | |
Put in that position. | 2025-03-11 12:10:30 | |
And so you know. | 2025-03-11 12:10:33 | |
It's a balancing act in terms of going. | 2025-03-11 12:10:36 | |
Back and forth, but there's very clear lines that are. | 2025-03-11 12:10:39 | |
Wrong here as to who's doing what and that's why. | 2025-03-11 12:10:42 | |
To get the e-mail app so I could lay that. | 2025-03-11 12:10:45 | |
So that there's no misconception as to. | 2025-03-11 12:10:48 | |
What? And I think Christie laid that out at the last. | 2025-03-11 12:10:51 | |
Meeting also, I think she said that the commissioners are. | 2025-03-11 12:10:54 | |
Or not involved in micro. | 2025-03-11 12:10:57 | |
From managing what's going on here, they're buying a building for you that. | 2025-03-11 12:11:00 | |
What they're doing and they're going to provide 1.1 million. | 2025-03-11 12:11:03 | |
That might have been that might have been some. | 2025-03-11 12:11:06 | |
You know, I talked about, I don't know if we actually talked about it in the meeting, right? | 2025-03-11 12:11:09 | |
Like I I came up here before the meeting and we talked. | 2025-03-11 12:11:12 | |
Yeah. I don't know if they got into the meeting OK. All right. | 2025-03-11 12:11:15 | |
Rick, I've got one quick question. So, uh, so with. | 2025-03-11 12:11:18 | |
That in mind, I mean at what point can. | 2025-03-11 12:11:21 | |
The board and Doctor Harrison Char. | 2025-03-11 12:11:24 | |
Start working with the architect to start. | 2025-03-11 12:11:27 | |
Start doing the design phase even though we don't own the building. | 2025-03-11 12:11:30 | |
Yeah, yesterday, yeah, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:11:33 | |
Can I have last name that would be appropriate for us to have a? | 2025-03-11 12:11:36 | |
You know a a product. | 2025-03-11 12:11:39 | |
Maybe not a public meeting to start. | 2025-03-11 12:11:42 | |
I'm currently working on. | 2025-03-11 12:11:45 | |
You know, designer, architect is is we have to. | 2025-03-11 12:11:48 | |
I don't remember what the answer was. I asked the question but I can't remember what. | 2025-03-11 12:11:51 | |
What the answer was if we had to get RFP? | 2025-03-11 12:11:54 | |
To get that process started because I know that takes a while. | 2025-03-11 12:11:57 | |
So that's stuff we were gonna cover under Building Update. | 2025-03-11 12:12:00 | |
OK, OK, OK. Well, we can start. | 2025-03-11 12:12:03 | |
I can go into more detail about the process then. | 2025-03-11 12:12:06 | |
OK, I got you. OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:09 | |
So should we take that comment out? | 2025-03-11 12:12:12 | |
Well, I think there's a motion on the floor too. | 2025-03-11 12:12:15 | |
To approve the management, Rick is giving his update then. | 2025-03-11 12:12:18 | |
My motion still saying. | 2025-03-11 12:12:21 | |
That is a minute, Yeah, sure. | 2025-03-11 12:12:24 | |
OK. Second, a few seconds. Yeah, OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:27 | |
Nobody. OK. | 2025-03-11 12:12:30 | |
And carries the minutes are approved. All right, on to budget. | 2025-03-11 12:12:33 | |
Does anybody have any questions about budget? | 2025-03-11 12:12:36 | |
Nobody has any questions about the budget. | 2025-03-11 12:12:45 | |
What do we? | 2025-03-11 12:13:00 | |
Doing with it. | 2025-03-11 12:13:03 | |
This is a separate vet. | 2025-03-11 12:13:22 | |
From the seasonal first. | 2025-03-11 12:13:25 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:13:34 | |
There's no real plan. | 2025-03-11 12:13:36 | |
To go with an avian vaccine at this point. | 2025-03-11 12:13:40 | |
There have. | 2025-03-11 12:13:43 | |
Sense of attention. Recently you said that state level for the. | 2025-03-11 12:13:46 | |
Flew through the occasion. | 2025-03-11 12:13:49 | |
Mercer County, Ohio. | 2025-03-11 12:13:52 | |
And they're up to human. | 2025-03-11 12:13:55 | |
Cases now spread out across the US, but. | 2025-03-11 12:13:58 | |
And I bring it up. | 2025-03-11 12:14:01 | |
Because we had a case over the weekend at the hosp. | 2025-03-11 12:14:04 | |
Yesterday, so there. | 2025-03-11 12:14:09 | |
There have been the elegant terms to be popular. | 2025-03-11 12:14:13 | |
Two populations of poultry in Washington. | 2025-03-11 12:14:16 | |
The county is the closest bird. | 2025-03-11 12:14:19 | |
Before we could just go on about. | 2025-03-11 12:14:22 | |
I need we need to go back up to budget and improve those. | 2025-03-11 12:14:25 | |
I need a motion. | 2025-03-11 12:14:31 | |
So moved. | 2025-03-11 12:14:34 | |
OK. Any opposed? OK, go ahead. Just. | 2025-03-11 12:14:37 | |
OK, go on. | 2025-03-11 12:14:40 | |
Oh yeah, that's all. | 2025-03-11 12:15:01 | |
And 1:00 and 2:00. | 2025-03-11 12:15:04 | |
That's awesome. Thank. | 2025-03-11 12:15:10 | |
Anything more on the? | 2025-03-11 12:15:13 | |
H5 N one Doctor Harris No. | 2025-03-11 12:15:16 | |
OK, building update. | 2025-03-11 12:15:19 | |
So we're just gonna cover what we're gonna. | 2025-03-11 12:15:22 | |
Yes, the the building is good. | 2025-03-11 12:15:25 | |
Christie lit a fire under. | 2025-03-11 12:15:28 | |
Meeting to get that done sooner than later. | 2025-03-11 12:15:31 | |
And yes, the health. | 2025-03-11 12:15:34 | |
In particular, the people that run the health department. | 2025-03-11 12:15:37 | |
Are going to have the most input on what you want that for. | 2025-03-11 12:15:40 | |
Yes, we need to hire an art. | 2025-03-11 12:15:43 | |
Architects, now the architect we hire. | 2025-03-11 12:15:46 | |
There doesn't have to be the architect that we ultimately. | 2025-03-11 12:15:49 | |
Because once we get. | 2025-03-11 12:15:52 | |
Plans and you guys have everything that you have. | 2025-03-11 12:15:55 | |
Have to have that, you have to have the generator way. | 2025-03-11 12:15:58 | |
The I see everything. | 2025-03-11 12:16:01 | |
Budget, then actually we'll get bids from. | 2025-03-11 12:16:04 | |
People and the Commissioners will make a decision on. | 2025-03-11 12:16:07 | |
Who is going to actually get the big? | 2025-03-11 12:16:10 | |
Because they have to pay for it so. | 2025-03-11 12:16:13 | |
So no, we have complete control over. | 2025-03-11 12:16:16 | |
What we want in that building and the committee. | 2025-03-11 12:16:19 | |
Don't care, we just have to stay. | 2025-03-11 12:16:22 | |
I guess my question is still though. | 2025-03-11 12:16:25 | |
Do we need to submit an RFP? | 2025-03-11 12:16:28 | |
Proposal Do we need to have the committee? | 2025-03-11 12:16:31 | |
Need to get up the ability to get an RFP or. | 2025-03-11 12:16:34 | |
Get one. We've already sort of generated a plan for the 1st. | 2025-03-11 12:16:37 | |
Words y'all seen from the I think. | 2025-03-11 12:16:40 | |
My understanding is we can just. | 2025-03-11 12:16:43 | |
Go ahead and pay for an architect to start on the plan. | 2025-03-11 12:16:46 | |
That that's that's independent. | 2025-03-11 12:16:49 | |
That doesn't mean that we're going to use that architect in the. | 2025-03-11 12:16:52 | |
In the final thing, right once. Once the. | 2025-03-11 12:16:55 | |
I mean what I'd recommend just process. | 2025-03-11 12:16:58 | |
That's why is to let the. | 2025-03-11 12:17:01 | |
Put together preliminary drawing in. | 2025-03-11 12:17:04 | |
Then get. | 2025-03-11 12:17:07 | |
Floyd County Health Department. | 2025-03-11 12:17:10 | |
All this with the employees, the people that are. | 2025-03-11 12:17:13 | |
Gonna be working there. | 2025-03-11 12:17:16 | |
But then. | 2025-03-11 12:17:16 | |
Ask questions, you know, hey, you'd be better off for us in terms. | 2025-03-11 12:17:19 | |
Of our workflow as this was here and that was here yeah so let's. | 2025-03-11 12:17:22 | |
So when we first started looking at building. | 2025-03-11 12:17:25 | |
You know, we had two architect propos. | 2025-03-11 12:17:28 | |
For this particular building, Lynn Armstrong. | 2025-03-11 12:17:31 | |
Was one of the recommendations from the county. | 2025-03-11 12:17:34 | |
And then Pinkerton and he. | 2025-03-11 12:17:37 | |
When it actually came out and stood with us outside the building. | 2025-03-11 12:17:40 | |
Walk through the building with this and you know he. | 2025-03-11 12:17:43 | |
We've got several phases, you know, he's got the initial phase. | 2025-03-11 12:17:46 | |
With working with Tom and Charlotte. | 2025-03-11 12:17:49 | |
The employees and doing the initial site design for. | 2025-03-11 12:17:52 | |
For a fee and then if we want him to proceed. | 2025-03-11 12:17:55 | |
With the next phase and then the following the. | 2025-03-11 12:17:58 | |
Final phase of contractor. | 2025-03-11 12:18:01 | |
Blueprints and all that, all that stuff. | 2025-03-11 12:18:04 | |
Three separate phases he you know that they would do but. | 2025-03-11 12:18:07 | |
You know he's already been out there. He's. | 2025-03-11 12:18:10 | |
He's got a good understanding he price wise was. | 2025-03-11 12:18:13 | |
They're virtually saying when Armstrong and him were virtually the same. | 2025-03-11 12:18:16 | |
I mean, but you can certainly get another bid if you want another. | 2025-03-11 12:18:19 | |
But he we had a statutory. | 2025-03-11 12:18:22 | |
Process for the appraisal, we had to have three bids. | 2025-03-11 12:18:25 | |
So you're telling me we don't have to have that? | 2025-03-11 12:18:28 | |
You select who you want, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:18:31 | |
And you select who you want. | 2025-03-11 12:18:34 | |
And so that would be the first step for this board to solve. | 2025-03-11 12:18:37 | |
Select who they want as an architect. | 2025-03-11 12:18:40 | |
And then you ultimately as you go. | 2025-03-11 12:18:43 | |
Through whatever process you decide in terms of. | 2025-03-11 12:18:46 | |
Making this happen that architect will. | 2025-03-11 12:18:49 | |
Use the drawings. | 2025-03-11 12:18:52 | |
Bid drawing and so once. | 2025-03-11 12:18:55 | |
You get that then. | 2025-03-11 12:18:58 | |
The commissioners can go through. | 2025-03-11 12:19:01 | |
Their process of just going ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:19:04 | |
Doing the advertising and everything for the bid. | 2025-03-11 12:19:07 | |
All have done what you're trying to. This is what we want and then. | 2025-03-11 12:19:13 | |
It's just a matter of getting the bid. | 2025-03-11 12:19:16 | |
For that and then passing it back to this board and letting. | 2025-03-11 12:19:19 | |
The board make a decision as to how you want to go forward. | 2025-03-11 12:19:22 | |
Because depending on the contractor, some of the contractors. | 2025-03-11 12:19:25 | |
To do the secondary architectural stuff in house. | 2025-03-11 12:19:28 | |
Versus an outside entity, so some. | 2025-03-11 12:19:31 | |
Some of them have you know, in order to value. | 2025-03-11 12:19:34 | |
Here they do it themselves and have their own people that. | 2025-03-11 12:19:37 | |
Safe cost, so depending on which. | 2025-03-11 12:19:40 | |
Bill. | 2025-03-11 12:19:40 | |
Building firm you end up going with you know they may not. | 2025-03-11 12:19:43 | |
Need the second and third. | 2025-03-11 12:19:46 | |
Say Pinkerton. You know they. | 2025-03-11 12:19:49 | |
Do it in house so but the first phase is. | 2025-03-11 12:19:52 | |
You know, so my question though is so. | 2025-03-11 12:19:55 | |
Let's just say it's Pinkerton that we choose and. | 2025-03-11 12:19:58 | |
What if you know he wants, you know upfront money? | 2025-03-11 12:20:01 | |
We need to get started. I mean, where's where's that money come from? | 2025-03-11 12:20:04 | |
We submit it to my understanding. | 2025-03-11 12:20:07 | |
According to the minutes from the last meeting, is that this? | 2025-03-11 12:20:10 | |
Board approved $170,000. | 2025-03-11 12:20:13 | |
That you have to put forward with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:20:16 | |
To this process. And so you've got that money, right? | 2025-03-11 12:20:19 | |
To go ahead and pay for this ongoing. | 2025-03-11 12:20:22 | |
Effort as to how you choose to allocate your. | 2025-03-11 12:20:25 | |
Sources. So let me clarify one thing and I think. | 2025-03-11 12:20:28 | |
Somebody, the commissioners are buying the building. | 2025-03-11 12:20:31 | |
We have 1.1 plus the HFM. | 2025-03-11 12:20:34 | |
Money to do the reset. | 2025-03-11 12:20:37 | |
That's what we. | 2025-03-11 12:20:37 | |
So the arcade. | 2025-03-11 12:20:40 | |
Tech is going to come out of our pocket. | 2025-03-11 12:20:43 | |
So we, we, we just need to make a decision on which one. | 2025-03-11 12:20:46 | |
So, Tom, do you have a preference? | 2025-03-11 12:20:50 | |
On who we get to do the preliminary? | 2025-03-11 12:20:53 | |
You know my my preferences, of course is that they would base. | 2025-03-11 12:20:56 | |
What they're doing off of the floor plan that. | 2025-03-11 12:20:58 | |
Came up with through the department because we've all kind of metal. | 2025-03-11 12:21:02 | |
That tried to, you know, go close to the exam and. | 2025-03-11 12:21:05 | |
We like the the original plan we came up with. I don't have a prep. | 2025-03-11 12:21:11 | |
For our architectural design. | 2025-03-11 12:21:13 | |
I think it's reasonable that, you know, we have somebody. | 2025-03-11 12:21:17 | |
A set of workable floor plan that would be. | 2025-03-11 12:21:20 | |
The code basically and then. | 2025-03-11 12:21:23 | |
From there, the 2nd and 3rd phases would probably be. | 2025-03-11 12:21:26 | |
Contingent upon. Contingent upon. | 2025-03-11 12:21:29 | |
You know what actual construction companies looked at? But. | 2025-03-11 12:21:32 | |
Yeah, I think, I mean, I think we should move ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:21:35 | |
With a architect. | 2025-03-11 12:21:38 | |
An architect I don't. | 2025-03-11 12:21:41 | |
To have a preference one way or the other, as long as they're going. | 2025-03-11 12:21:44 | |
To take, you know, our input for what we. | 2025-03-11 12:21:47 | |
So I will go to the. | 2025-03-11 12:21:50 | |
Say that I personally vetted the two. | 2025-03-11 12:21:53 | |
People because I have friends in the business and I'm not going to say. | 2025-03-11 12:21:56 | |
Because they didn't give you permission to, but I I would. | 2025-03-11 12:21:59 | |
Highly recommend the sky. | 2025-03-11 12:22:02 | |
Pinkerton, yeah. And again, he's ready. He's ready to. | 2025-03-11 12:22:05 | |
Yeah, he's so, I mean all your. | 2025-03-11 12:22:08 | |
All I gotta do is make phone call. | 2025-03-11 12:22:11 | |
So I mean, and it's what it was, in fact. | 2025-03-11 12:22:14 | |
The 84 papers and yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:22:17 | |
Yeah, I think this board needs to make a motion. | 2025-03-11 12:22:20 | |
And in terms of selecting. | 2025-03-11 12:22:23 | |
It is that you want, so I would make the motion to move. | 2025-03-11 12:22:26 | |
Forward Pinkerton. | 2025-03-11 12:22:29 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:22:29 | |
All in favor. | 2025-03-11 12:22:32 | |
Anybody opposed? Motion carried. | 2025-03-11 12:22:35 | |
And so the process is left. | 2025-03-11 12:22:47 | |
70 could be used for anything, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:22:53 | |
Towards the recession. | 2025-03-11 12:22:56 | |
That wasn't clear to me before. OK, that was I'm sorry. | 2025-03-11 12:22:59 | |
After the last meeting I went to their. | 2025-03-11 12:23:02 | |
And yes, that money, they just said we can. | 2025-03-11 12:23:05 | |
They're not putting it towards the building. | 2025-03-11 12:23:08 | |
My understanding and I guess just one other thing to add. | 2025-03-11 12:23:11 | |
To the building. So John, you know we get. | 2025-03-11 12:23:14 | |
Talk to the current tenants and they're going to be but they're. | 2025-03-11 12:23:17 | |
They're leaving all the all the things that are we. | 2025-03-11 12:23:20 | |
Saw in that building they're going to be leaving all of that so that. | 2025-03-11 12:23:23 | |
All you know helpful for. | 2025-03-11 12:23:26 | |
Saving money and costs. | 2025-03-11 12:23:29 | |
Desk, chairs and also in the building. | 2025-03-11 12:23:32 | |
Purpose. We're not going to have a tenant to deal with in there. | 2025-03-11 12:23:35 | |
We know when they're moving out. | 2025-03-11 12:23:38 | |
John acted like it was soon so. | 2025-03-11 12:23:41 | |
February 28th. I'm yeah. February 20. I thought they were. | 2025-03-11 12:23:44 | |
Gonna be gone by March 1st but I don't know if they are officially. | 2025-03-11 12:23:47 | |
Shortly but. | 2025-03-11 12:23:50 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:23:56 | |
Yeah, I just want to make sure they were going to be affected by. | 2025-03-11 12:23:59 | |
John told me they were. | 2025-03-11 12:24:02 | |
Yeah, OK, yeah, he told me they were supposed to be, but yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:24:05 | |
OK. | 2025-03-11 12:24:08 | |
Anybody else want to say anything about the building? | 2025-03-11 12:24:11 | |
***. | 2025-03-11 12:24:14 | |
OK, on to new business. | 2025-03-11 12:24:17 | |
Coronary, please. | 2025-03-11 12:24:20 | |
Yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:24:23 | |
We have a. | 2025-03-11 12:24:26 | |
Issue with the corner I. | 2025-03-11 12:24:29 | |
Spoken with the new corner, I think 4 on 4 separate. | 2025-03-11 12:24:32 | |
January 1st this issue. | 2025-03-11 12:24:38 | |
There was a guy who was. | 2025-03-11 12:24:41 | |
Under Hospice care, we went through the cardiologist's office. | 2025-03-11 12:24:44 | |
And died basically. | 2025-03-11 12:24:47 | |
Cardiologist's office he was. | 2025-03-11 12:24:50 | |
Was not coded or attempted to do. | 2025-03-11 12:24:53 | |
Patient because he's been hospital status. | 2025-03-11 12:24:56 | |
But the office didn't really know what to do. | 2025-03-11 12:24:59 | |
And so the office called the coroner. | 2025-03-11 12:25:02 | |
Who didn't do anything. | 2025-03-11 12:25:05 | |
The Funeral Home wouldn't pick up the body because the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:08 | |
Corner didn't release the body and this. | 2025-03-11 12:25:11 | |
A doctor's office called the police. | 2025-03-11 12:25:14 | |
Who came and said, well, this is not a crime or. | 2025-03-11 12:25:17 | |
We're not involved. | 2025-03-11 12:25:20 | |
On the office who had a. | 2025-03-11 12:25:23 | |
Dead patients put a sheet over the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:26 | |
Patients hiding into a wheelchair and if you. | 2025-03-11 12:25:29 | |
From the office in professional art. | 2025-03-11 12:25:32 | |
Building across the. | 2025-03-11 12:25:35 | |
Through the hospital and parked him outside of security. | 2025-03-11 12:25:38 | |
To get a burial transit form. | 2025-03-11 12:25:41 | |
Who? | 2025-03-11 12:25:44 | |
There were several requests. | 2025-03-11 12:25:48 | |
Did everyone here see weakened Bernie? | 2025-03-11 12:25:50 | |
Very reminiscent. | 2025-03-11 12:25:53 | |
So. | 2025-03-11 12:25:57 | |
I got involved once. The security was there and they didn't know what. | 2025-03-11 12:26:00 | |
Going on. So we talked. | 2025-03-11 12:26:02 | |
Up in the corner, we we hope that we. | 2025-03-11 12:26:05 | |
Have corrected this issue. | 2025-03-11 12:26:09 | |
We've had issues in the past with a. | 2025-03-11 12:26:12 | |
A corner a few years ago. | 2025-03-11 12:26:15 | |
And you know, we had looked into. | 2025-03-11 12:26:17 | |
Trying to establish. | 2025-03-11 12:26:20 | |
Parameters for them is the health option we have to. | 2025-03-11 12:26:24 | |
In the health department, I have to, ultimately. | 2025-03-11 12:26:27 | |
Certificate from the health department also. | 2025-03-11 12:26:30 | |
Have to maintain records of all the deaths so. | 2025-03-11 12:26:33 | |
So we do have, you know, input into what. | 2025-03-11 12:26:36 | |
Goes on, but there isn't. | 2025-03-11 12:26:39 | |
Really any way to directly approach? | 2025-03-11 12:26:42 | |
Corner issues with an outside agency other than approaching the corner. | 2025-03-11 12:26:45 | |
Themselves, themselves, themselves. We've done that. | 2025-03-11 12:26:48 | |
So we'll see if this is going to become an. | 2025-03-11 12:26:51 | |
This is kind of. | 2025-03-11 12:26:54 | |
Tom Macab. | 2025-03-11 12:26:57 | |
To to Really. | 2025-03-11 12:27:00 | |
You know, something could easily it could have been. | 2025-03-11 12:27:03 | |
Easily released by the corner the. | 2025-03-11 12:27:06 | |
Funeral Home would have gone to the office and picked the body up. | 2025-03-11 12:27:09 | |
And that would have been the end of it had the coin. | 2025-03-11 12:27:12 | |
What was the coroner's reason for not releasing? | 2025-03-11 12:27:18 | |
He thought the office would just know. | 2025-03-11 12:27:21 | |
If he said that they were going to do an autopsy, that that. | 2025-03-11 12:27:24 | |
Then the body was released. | 2025-03-11 12:27:27 | |
And you know, you know, we, we, we had a. | 2025-03-11 12:27:30 | |
A long talk about how office depths are new. | 2025-03-11 12:27:33 | |
You know, at least involve a. | 2025-03-11 12:27:36 | |
It it it really was terminology. | 2025-03-11 12:27:42 | |
And and then I think it it. | 2025-03-11 12:27:45 | |
Sort of devolved down to the person who's getting a lot of calls. | 2025-03-11 12:27:48 | |
They thought they were done and we're going to do anything and even the police try. | 2025-03-11 12:27:51 | |
You know, but they didn't without a crime. | 2025-03-11 12:27:54 | |
Well, the Funeral Home could have. | 2025-03-11 12:27:57 | |
The phone call and called the corner and said this body really? | 2025-03-11 12:28:00 | |
And been done, I mean. | 2025-03-11 12:28:03 | |
Like a lot of people. | 2025-03-11 12:28:05 | |
MMM, yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:28:06 | |
Yeah, it was. It was one of the things for this. | 2025-03-11 12:28:09 | |
Back over the hospital. | 2025-03-11 12:28:12 | |
Part of the part of the deal was the corner. | 2025-03-11 12:28:15 | |
An unusual circumstance which should be there. | 2025-03-11 12:28:18 | |
You know that's what they do is they do nothing. | 2025-03-11 12:28:21 | |
Unusual circumstances here was the case where clearly. | 2025-03-11 12:28:24 | |
Did not know what to do and at that point you should have stepped up. | 2025-03-11 12:28:30 | |
And said, OK guys, let me make a couple calls for you. | 2025-03-11 12:28:33 | |
How it's done and that doesn't happen. | 2025-03-11 12:28:36 | |
True. | 2025-03-11 12:28:39 | |
Yeah. So we're we're hopefully that. | 2025-03-11 12:28:42 | |
That issue has been addressed and we're going that route. | 2025-03-11 12:28:45 | |
And this is sort of ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:28:48 | |
For you guys, was the patient in a constant? | 2025-03-11 12:28:51 | |
The patient was unaccompanied. | 2025-03-11 12:28:54 | |
Treated like an in home depth, yeah, it's just. | 2025-03-11 12:29:03 | |
Been a little more tender. Yeah, they got a a water. | 2025-03-11 12:29:09 | |
From the hospital about the guy. | 2025-03-11 12:29:12 | |
You know, hide into a wheelchair outside the security office. | 2025-03-11 12:29:15 | |
It's a very public place, you know, in the afternoon. | 2025-03-11 12:29:18 | |
And yeah. | 2025-03-11 12:29:21 | |
In the future, we're keeping a close eye on cause. | 2025-03-11 12:29:30 | |
Of death and things like that, we get a. | 2025-03-11 12:29:33 | |
Function. | 2025-03-11 12:29:36 | |
Should also probably bring up that all these. | 2025-03-11 12:29:39 | |
A corner from the previous. | 2025-03-11 12:29:42 | |
Were terminated because this is a. | 2025-03-11 12:29:45 | |
Not only a new coroner who has had a job before, but all. | 2025-03-11 12:29:48 | |
To his administration. | 2025-03-11 12:29:54 | |
Old business. | 2025-03-11 12:30:06 | |
I have some old business. This is a state. | 2025-03-11 12:30:09 | |
So we talked about the septic. | 2025-03-11 12:30:12 | |
System thing and so. | 2025-03-11 12:30:15 | |
Rick has another alternative. | 2025-03-11 12:30:18 | |
Which we're having a small executive session for which. | 2025-03-11 12:30:21 | |
Only certain people can go because it's unpublished. | 2025-03-11 12:30:24 | |
And then after that, we'll be coming up and after we. | 2025-03-11 12:30:27 | |
We will get back to you all on an altern. | 2025-03-11 12:30:33 | |
Replace. | 2025-03-11 12:30:42 | |
Can't get it done any other way. | 2025-03-11 12:30:45 | |
We don't know that all. | 2025-03-11 12:30:51 | |
Details where it's going to explain it to us and. | 2025-03-11 12:30:54 | |
In which we can only have small groups of people. | 2025-03-11 12:30:57 | |
And yes, because it would be considered a meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:31:00 | |
If we. | 2025-03-11 12:31:03 | |
Held it otherwise with three members of this board it. | 2025-03-11 12:31:06 | |
Not considered a meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:31:09 | |
What we're trying to do is to get. | 2025-03-11 12:31:12 | |
Members of the board. | 2025-03-11 12:31:15 | |
The health department together and. | 2025-03-11 12:31:18 | |
Discuss all the nuances. | 2025-03-11 12:31:21 | |
And it is complicated and drive. | 2025-03-11 12:31:24 | |
Now we're talking about that before the meeting. Umm. | 2025-03-11 12:31:27 | |
There's two different statutes that allow you to. | 2025-03-11 12:31:30 | |
Set up. | 2025-03-11 12:31:33 | |
District and. | 2025-03-11 12:31:36 | |
That's Title 13 and Title 36. | 2025-03-11 12:31:39 | |
Each have different ways that you can set up. | 2025-03-11 12:31:42 | |
About the district and pros and cons. | 2025-03-11 12:31:45 | |
In terms of. | 2025-03-11 12:31:48 | |
To use and also. | 2025-03-11 12:31:51 | |
Considerations that need to be made with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:31:54 | |
To the size of the territory. | 2025-03-11 12:31:57 | |
That you're going to bring into the district and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:00 | |
All these need to be vetted with regard. | 2025-03-11 12:32:03 | |
To the pros and the cons so that we can make it. | 2025-03-11 12:32:06 | |
Informative and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:09 | |
An appropriate decision with regards to moving forward. | 2025-03-11 12:32:12 | |
With. | 2025-03-11 12:32:15 | |
District we want and how we want that district. | 2025-03-11 12:32:18 | |
To operate and so I got a lot of. | 2025-03-11 12:32:21 | |
You know this and that. | 2025-03-11 12:32:24 | |
To consider when it comes to going through the. | 2025-03-11 12:32:27 | |
So that's. | 2025-03-11 12:32:30 | |
The whole. | 2025-03-11 12:32:30 | |
Purpose of getting us together and it. | 2025-03-11 12:32:33 | |
It's too complicated to sit down and do this and. | 2025-03-11 12:32:37 | |
This setting and I prefer doing. | 2025-03-11 12:32:39 | |
Things in a public meeting. | 2025-03-11 12:32:42 | |
Through experience of. | 2025-03-11 12:32:46 | |
I found that we need. | 2025-03-11 12:32:48 | |
You take the whole day off if we're going to do that. | 2025-03-11 12:32:52 | |
So it's better to get. | 2025-03-11 12:32:54 | |
A group together and invent all this. | 2025-03-11 12:32:58 | |
And then expand that to the full. | 2025-03-11 12:33:01 | |
Let the full ball. | 2025-03-11 12:33:03 | |
Ask questions. | 2025-03-11 12:33:06 | |
And we can go forward from there. | 2025-03-11 12:33:10 | |
They're the ones that would pass the order. | 2025-03-11 12:33:16 | |
On Title 36. | 2025-03-11 12:33:22 | |
Title 13 is a different setup where you're filing. | 2025-03-11 12:33:25 | |
Petition with idam. | 2025-03-11 12:33:28 | |
And going through just a different stack. | 2025-03-11 12:33:31 | |
The way I. | 2025-03-11 12:33:34 | |
Even it was titled 36 the ultimate you know. | 2025-03-11 12:33:37 | |
The commissioners have the option to decide it themselves. | 2025-03-11 12:33:43 | |
Set up a wastewater district and delegate it to them. | 2025-03-11 12:33:46 | |
But even if they do that. | 2025-03-11 12:33:49 | |
I'm sure veto power is not the right. | 2025-03-11 12:33:52 | |
Term for it, but the state can still say no. | 2025-03-11 12:33:55 | |
We've read your ordinance. We've read your plan. We don't like it. | 2025-03-11 12:33:58 | |
Start over. And So what we want to do for the? | 2025-03-11 12:34:01 | |
People who, you know, weren't willing to do this right the first time. | 2025-03-11 12:34:04 | |
You know, for the people who are going to want to start the. | 2025-03-11 12:34:07 | |
System pretty much as soon as the wastewater. | 2025-03-11 12:34:10 | |
District is in a factor of the commissioners approved. | 2025-03-11 12:34:13 | |
And so at that point, we don't want to have a scenario where we. | 2025-03-11 12:34:16 | |
Ongoing construction projects with the state. | 2025-03-11 12:34:19 | |
Declining on their review of the order. | 2025-03-11 12:34:22 | |
So we want to try to get things to organize it all. | 2025-03-11 12:34:25 | |
Want to make sure that we can actually give these people off? | 2025-03-11 12:34:31 | |
A proper legal Go ahead. | 2025-03-11 12:34:34 | |
And get the project started. | 2025-03-11 12:34:37 | |
We're looking at a handful of places currently. | 2025-03-11 12:34:40 | |
Cast is why the net is possible to specific up to. | 2025-03-11 12:34:46 | |
Yeah, I think that the. | 2025-03-11 12:34:49 | |
We talked to the commissioners, they sort. | 2025-03-11 12:34:52 | |
Boned his back. | 2025-03-11 12:34:55 | |
In fact, find workshops, we do workshop and then. | 2025-03-11 12:34:58 | |
By April, we should be able. | 2025-03-11 12:35:01 | |
Hopefully you can go out to speak with our project and and just. | 2025-03-11 12:35:07 | |
To kind of tell you what kind of. | 2025-03-11 12:35:10 | |
And sinking through the process. | 2025-03-11 12:35:13 | |
And looking at the complete statute with regards to a. | 2025-03-11 12:35:16 | |
Projections that you can get and. | 2025-03-11 12:35:19 | |
Trying to limit the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:22 | |
The ability of getting the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:25 | |
Because that adds to the. | 2025-03-11 12:35:28 | |
Kind that you have to go through the process and see. | 2025-03-11 12:35:31 | |
To me that. | 2025-03-11 12:35:34 | |
A happy place to land might be. | 2025-03-11 12:35:37 | |
Because we've got a range of anywhere from the South. | 2025-03-11 12:35:40 | |
Seven properties that we have right now that you could make a difference. | 2025-03-11 12:35:43 | |
Street all the way to. | 2025-03-11 12:35:46 | |
The whole unincorporated county. | 2025-03-11 12:35:49 | |
But this flow can only go to. | 2025-03-11 12:35:52 | |
A. What's it called? | 2025-03-11 12:35:55 | |
Unrestricted, Unrestricted waterway. | 2025-03-11 12:35:58 | |
Of which there's only one that we know of, and it's really not. | 2025-03-11 12:36:01 | |
An area that's in place. | 2025-03-11 12:36:04 | |
But but it is again it's another another project. | 2025-03-11 12:36:07 | |
Period. Another another hoops to make. | 2025-03-11 12:36:10 | |
So if we're able to identify all the prop. | 2025-03-11 12:36:13 | |
Properties that could take advantage of that. | 2025-03-11 12:36:16 | |
Then where? Where? | 2025-03-11 12:36:19 | |
Remedying the amount of objections that we. | 2025-03-11 12:36:22 | |
Week and a half because there's going to be a huge. | 2025-03-11 12:36:25 | |
Accounting that this doesn't apply to. | 2025-03-11 12:36:28 | |
That when you have the authority to establish fees. | 2025-03-11 12:36:31 | |
On these people they're going to come out of the woodwork with. | 2025-03-11 12:36:34 | |
Regards to that, I can just tell you. | 2025-03-11 12:36:37 | |
And so if we're able to limit. | 2025-03-11 12:36:40 | |
The exposure to the. | 2025-03-11 12:36:43 | |
That we can help with regards to this district. | 2025-03-11 12:36:46 | |
Were able to identify those and I think we can. | 2025-03-11 12:36:49 | |
And say OK, here's the layout of the property give. | 2025-03-11 12:36:52 | |
Exam specific notice with regards to that. | 2025-03-11 12:36:55 | |
I think we're limiting our fault. | 2025-03-11 12:36:58 | |
Here to objections and. | 2025-03-11 12:37:01 | |
Additional time. | 2025-03-11 12:37:01 | |
And we're able to hopefully. | 2025-03-11 12:37:04 | |
Get this thing through for the people that you. | 2025-03-11 12:37:07 | |
And have is available for. | 2025-03-11 12:37:10 | |
The people that don't need it now, but me in the future. | 2025-03-11 12:37:13 | |
Well, I'm author. | 2025-03-11 12:37:16 | |
Government and limited boards so. | 2025-03-11 12:37:19 | |
Can do this without another layer of bureaucracy. | 2025-03-11 12:37:22 | |

Improving the issuance of general obligation bonds. | 2025-03-11 18:02:25 | |
The purpose of this is for the. | 2025-03-11 18:02:28 | |
Purchase of the Health Department building. | 2025-03-11 18:02:31 | |

Alright, seeing. | 2025-03-11 18:02:46 | |
None. We will close the public hearing. | 2025-03-11 18:02:49 | |
We'll move on to old business. | 2025-03-11 18:02:52 | |
Item number one. | 2025-03-11 18:02:55 | |
Good evening. It's good to see you. | 2025-03-11 18:03:01 | |
This body, I don't think I've seen you all since. | 2025-03-11 18:03:04 | |
The this new body was formed, so it's not. | 2025-03-11 18:03:07 | |
I am Judge Maria Greenberg. | 2025-03-11 18:03:10 | |
I have two grants that we. | 2025-03-11 18:03:13 | |
The first being an additional appropriation for personnel. | 2025-03-11 18:03:16 | |
To round out three positions that. | 2025-03-11 18:03:19 | |
Work with the Veterans Court of Southern Indiana. | 2025-03-11 18:03:22 | |
For the duration of 2025. | 2025-03-11 18:03:25 | |
So that's what that additional appropriate. | 2025-03-11 18:03:28 | |
And that's why I delayed it too. | 2025-03-11 18:03:31 | |
I want to make sure the figures were correct so they're less than what I have. | 2025-03-11 18:03:34 | |
Originally advertised, but the items that amount. | 2025-03-11 18:03:37 | |
Here are accurate. | 2025-03-11 18:03:40 | |
On #1 #2. | 2025-03-11 18:03:43 | |
Is a transfer from a. | 2025-03-11 18:03:46 | |
Another grant fund for the Family Navigation Grant. | 2025-03-11 18:03:49 | |
So that we can go ahead and continue on. | 2025-03-11 18:03:52 | |
On with collecting the data through that program. | 2025-03-11 18:03:55 | |
Grace of this year. Motion to approve. | 2025-03-11 18:03:58 | |
Prove 1A and B. | 2025-03-11 18:04:01 | |
All right, we have a motion and 2nd for Old Bill. | 2025-03-11 18:04:04 | |
Business 1A and B, any discussion or questions? | 2025-03-11 18:04:07 | |
All in favor say aye. | 2025-03-11 18:04:13 | |
Thank you. | 2025-03-11 18:04:16 | |
All right. | 2025-03-11 18:04:19 | |
New business number one is the Ordinance 20. | 2025-03-11 18:04:22 | |
25-O3 in order for the Floyd County Council Office. | 2025-03-11 18:04:25 | |
Authorizing the issuance of general obligation bonds and bond. | 2025-03-11 18:04:28 | |
Anticipation notes of the county to finance the. | 2025-03-11 18:04:31 | |
Compartment building project and incidental expenses appropriate. | 2025-03-11 18:04:34 | |
During the proceeds thereof and approving certain matters re. | 2025-03-11 18:04:37 | |
Made it there too. | 2025-03-11 18:04:40 | |
Here Mr. Brad Bingham online so. | 2025-03-11 18:04:43 | |
Good evening, members of the Council. Tim Berry with Crow Penny. | 2025-03-11 18:04:52 | |
Advisor on this? | 2025-03-11 18:04:55 | |
Project and Brad Bingham is here. | 2025-03-11 18:04:59 | |
Thornburg Online. | 2025-03-11 18:05:01 | |
Fred, do you wanna walk through the ordinance? | 2025-03-11 18:05:04 | |
And then we can talk about sure, the other. | 2025-03-11 18:05:07 | |
Yeah. Thanks, Tim. Happy to do. | 2025-03-11 18:05:10 | |
That and I I can hear everyone but. | 2025-03-11 18:05:13 | |
See things that hopefully focus in here and see me. | 2025-03-11 18:05:17 | |
Fine. Tell me if you have anything. OK, fantastic. | 2025-03-11 18:05:19 | |
As you mentioned and and Councillor Shoreman. | 2025-03-11 18:05:23 | |
The bond ordinance is for the. | 2025-03-11 18:05:26 | |
Purchase of the existing building to be used for the. | 2025-03-11 18:05:29 | |
Health Department. The ordinance would authorize the issue to. | 2025-03-11 18:05:32 | |
General obligation bonds in a maximum principal amount not to be. | 2025-03-11 18:05:35 | |
$3.2 million and. | 2025-03-11 18:05:38 | |
Pending the issuance of those bonds, it would authorize. | 2025-03-11 18:05:41 | |
The issuance of bond anticipation though, so bond. | 2025-03-11 18:05:44 | |
Face note for band is just a fancy. | 2025-03-11 18:05:47 | |
Work for interim financing and. | 2025-03-11 18:05:50 | |
Previous discussions to my understanding that the Council. | 2025-03-11 18:05:53 | |
Would like to do issue a ban for this. | 2025-03-11 18:05:56 | |
Financing with the intent that you're going. | 2025-03-11 18:05:59 | |
Free up money from your general fund that. | 2025-03-11 18:06:02 | |
To amortize the band so that bonds would never be issued. | 2025-03-11 18:06:05 | |
And that's perfectly fine to do, but. | 2025-03-11 18:06:08 | |
In order to abandon, you still have to authorize the the openly. | 2025-03-11 18:06:11 | |
The issuance of the bonds in case that would ever be necessary. | 2025-03-11 18:06:14 | |
That's really what this ordinance does, is it? | 2025-03-11 18:06:17 | |
Both arms and bands. Umm the. | 2025-03-11 18:06:20 | |
Proceeds will be used to finance the purchase of the existing. | 2025-03-11 18:06:23 | |
Building offers a small amount to be. | 2025-03-11 18:06:26 | |
Renovations to make it usable as the county. | 2025-03-11 18:06:29 | |
Health department facility, we also. | 2025-03-11 18:06:32 | |
Allow us to do what's called capitalized interest. | 2025-03-11 18:06:35 | |
So again, knowing that your overall plan of. | 2025-03-11 18:06:38 | |
Finances to shift some expenses from your general fund to. | 2025-03-11 18:06:41 | |
Public safety with fund. This is going to give me time. | 2025-03-11 18:06:44 | |
Time and doing capitalized interest gives you time to kind of figure out. | 2025-03-11 18:06:47 | |
And the shipping those expenses before? | 2025-03-11 18:06:50 | |
And start finding a source of revenue to pay pay the interest on. | 2025-03-11 18:06:53 | |
On the on the band and then again the proceeds because. | 2025-03-11 18:06:56 | |
Softly be used to pay the issuance for the. | 2025-03-11 18:06:59 | |
Transaction the. | 2025-03-11 18:07:02 | |
The ordinance also makes an additional appropriation, so. | 2025-03-11 18:07:05 | |
Again, because this amount wasn't included in your existing budget that. | 2025-03-11 18:07:08 | |
The purpose of the hearing was to allow folks. | 2025-03-11 18:07:11 | |
Asked about this additional appropriation, but it does allow. | 2025-03-11 18:07:14 | |
Make this the additional preparation $3.2 million at. | 2025-03-11 18:07:17 | |
Again, would be funded with the proceeds of the financing. | 2025-03-11 18:07:20 | |
Together with any investment earnings on those proceeds. | 2025-03-11 18:07:23 | |
The last last point to kind of point out in this, which is. | 2025-03-11 18:07:26 | |
Normally by anticipation, notes are secured. | 2025-03-11 18:07:29 | |
So we buy the proceeds of the bonds if and when issued. | 2025-03-11 18:07:32 | |
This ordinance does authorize. | 2025-03-11 18:07:35 | |
And the backup, the ability to levy. | 2025-03-11 18:07:38 | |
Tax to pay interest on the band if that were next. | 2025-03-11 18:07:41 | |
Necessary. And again, it's kind of because of the unique nature. | 2025-03-11 18:07:44 | |
This financing that we put that in here because. | 2025-03-11 18:07:47 | |
The Perks of the Band is going to. | 2025-03-11 18:07:50 | |
And how are they gonna get paid interest every six? | 2025-03-11 18:07:53 | |
Months until until the maturity of the band and. | 2025-03-11 18:07:56 | |
So again, we all understand the intent is to use your. | 2025-03-11 18:07:59 | |
Freedom, you know, general fund cash flow, but. | 2025-03-11 18:08:02 | |
Credit standpoint, it gets kind of hard for a bank or. | 2025-03-11 18:08:05 | |
Credit analyst to review that especially when when. | 2025-03-11 18:08:08 | |
That overall shift in the expenses may not have. | 2025-03-11 18:08:11 | |
Yeah. So again the the property tax levy. | 2025-03-11 18:08:14 | |
They backstop and pay interest on the case. | 2025-03-11 18:08:17 | |
That that would be necessary, but again, I don't know. | 2025-03-11 18:08:20 | |
Necessarily to state happiness, I'll pause. | 2025-03-11 18:08:23 | |
They're happy and quiet to know that, uh. | 2025-03-11 18:08:26 | |
This is not what I am. | 2025-03-11 18:08:32 | |
Happening. I anticipated our tax. | 2025-03-11 18:08:35 | |
Have an opinion? I anticipated that pay. | 2025-03-11 18:08:38 | |
Interest, I thought that's what we talked about that. | 2025-03-11 18:08:41 | |
We were going to pay the interest as we go. | 2025-03-11 18:08:44 | |
Can we still do that? Oh, we can. | 2025-03-11 18:08:47 | |
That is exactly what would be anticipated. | 2025-03-11 18:08:50 |
