| Just overtime, Grant. | 00:01:58 | |
| Yes, Sir, Yeah. | 00:02:00 | |
| I had no questions about it and I know that. | 00:02:02 | |
| Procedurally. | 00:02:04 | |
| We're we're doing these three. | 00:02:05 | |
| This venue now, so I appreciate the answer step that it takes. | 00:02:07 | |
| On a busy night for you so look for a motion to approve. | 00:02:11 | |
| I make a motion to approve. I'll second. | 00:02:14 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:02:16 | |
| Thank you very much. Thank you. | 00:02:18 | |
| All right. Chief Operating Officer Nick Creevy. | 00:02:20 | |
| Good evening. | 00:02:26 | |
| The first item I have before you is a. | 00:02:27 | |
| Resolution for Blue River services. | 00:02:31 | |
| To apply for their 5311. | 00:02:35 | |
| Funding the resolutions FCR 202606. | 00:02:38 | |
| And that is a. | 00:02:44 | |
| Including up to a $4000 local match. | 00:02:46 | |
| This allows them to apply for federal funding for those services. | 00:02:51 | |
| In Floyd County. | 00:02:57 | |
| OK. And we arrived at that number because last year they had approximately 200. | 00:02:59 | |
| Service runs that we figured $20 per run seemed reasonable in Floyd County, correct? That's correct. They they received a 2 to one | 00:03:03 | |
| match. | 00:03:07 | |
| For that. | 00:03:11 | |
| Alright, I'll look for a motion to approve. | 00:03:13 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve Floyd County Resolution 2026-06. | 00:03:15 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:03:19 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:03:20 | |
| The next item I have is a change order for the Nova Park Building 5. | 00:03:24 | |
| This is a 267,200 and 1550. | 00:03:29 | |
| Reduction. | 00:03:34 | |
| Change order for that project. | 00:03:36 | |
| That part project is finished up, so this is a. | 00:03:38 | |
| A reduction of 267,250. | 00:03:41 | |
| Did you say a reduction? I just wanted to emphasize, can you say reduction one more time? | 00:03:45 | |
| Alright, I am. | 00:03:52 | |
| I have no. | 00:03:54 | |
| Questions regarding that Motion approved. | 00:03:54 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:03:57 | |
| Alright, the next item is. | 00:04:00 | |
| For Inside USA contracting with Center Point, they're doing some work. | 00:04:03 | |
| On Thai Avenue. A few other representatives are here. | 00:04:10 | |
| To discuss the project. | 00:04:14 | |
| They will be requesting the use of a county parcel. | 00:04:16 | |
| Uh, after they go over the project, I would request that, uh, the commissioners. | 00:04:20 | |
| Approve an agreement. | 00:04:26 | |
| To be approved outside of this meeting to allow. | 00:04:28 | |
| Work in that parcel by them to complete the project. | 00:04:31 | |
| Come and describe what the project is for the question. | 00:04:37 | |
| Yeah. | 00:04:47 | |
| Jeremy Baltic over the center point. I'm an engineer with Centerpoint. | 00:04:50 | |
| On Thai Ave. we currently have a design to bore underneath Thai Ave. | 00:04:53 | |
| From. | 00:04:57 | |
| Blackliston run. | 00:04:58 | |
| All the way to the other side to corner. | 00:04:59 | |
| We like to. | 00:05:02 | |
| To put a temporary bridge over Blackstone, run so we can string pipe. | 00:05:04 | |
| Over the over there instead of in the middle of the Tyre Ave. | 00:05:07 | |
| Because we don't want to block the driveways of the homeowners. | 00:05:10 | |
| And that's pretty much what we're trying to do. | 00:05:13 | |
| And we brought this up. | 00:05:16 | |
| We met with the. | 00:05:17 | |
| Floyd the people of Floyd discussed about. | 00:05:19 | |
| Putting this like car rail. | 00:05:21 | |
| It's like 90 feet. | 00:05:23 | |
| 91 feet. | 00:05:24 | |
| Long and we just come bank to bank over the. | 00:05:25 | |
| Blacks on run. | 00:05:27 | |
| And then we can string pipe on top of it, kind of like workspace. | 00:05:28 | |
| It's about 90 square feet below it, so we won't be impacted anymore. | 00:05:31 | |
| Flood water. | 00:05:35 | |
| But this will allow us to. | 00:05:37 | |
| Work over there instead of in the road. | 00:05:38 | |
| It allows us not to trench Thai avenues but we both do like pretty much limit all the trenching. | 00:05:41 | |
| On Thai Ave. we can. | 00:05:45 | |
| Too much bore underneath the whole Rd. | 00:05:47 | |
| All the way to. | 00:05:48 | |
| That's pretty much what we're trying to do. | 00:05:50 | |
| No, we won't block any driveways, not care about the road. | 00:05:52 | |
| So what will actually pass back and forth over the? | 00:05:56 | |
| Excuse me, what will actually pass back and forth over the only their product? | 00:05:59 | |
| Right. | 00:06:04 | |
| There won't be vehicles going over a bridge. It's just no, you're a product. | 00:06:05 | |
| Yeah, OK. But we just it's like a kind of like a workspace. | 00:06:12 | |
| Yeah, because we put the. | 00:06:15 | |
| Pipe on the wheels and we welded together. | 00:06:17 | |
| We have to like X-ray it, coat it and take time to draw it. Then we pull it underneath the ground. | 00:06:19 | |
| Right, we can do it there instead of in the road. | 00:06:24 | |
| Yeah. | 00:06:27 | |
| Yeah. | 00:06:28 | |
| No, I certainly appreciate that there's not much room on Thai Ave. | 00:06:29 | |
| No, there's not, No. | 00:06:32 | |
| All right. Well, this came to us with an agreement. | 00:06:36 | |
| Or a recommendation from the Stormwater Board. | 00:06:38 | |
| To allow signing on this. | 00:06:43 | |
| Once an interlocal or a local. | 00:06:45 | |
| Start that agreement has been. | 00:06:48 | |
| Struck a pond between. | 00:06:50 | |
| The county. | 00:06:52 | |
| And center point. | 00:06:53 | |
| But with regards to, we will just want to flesh out some of the replacement in here with regards to. | 00:06:56 | |
| The trees, I mean if they're taking a 28 inch diameter tree down, we don't want a 2 inch tree diameter replacing that. Yeah, | 00:07:02 | |
| remove any trees, we'll put them back with native trees. And if we remove any vegetation, we replace those with native, especially | 00:07:06 | |
| the vegetation that has strong. | 00:07:10 | |
| Root systems keep the embankment. | 00:07:15 | |
| Start again strong. | 00:07:17 | |
| That we replace all. | 00:07:19 | |
| Yeah. Any further questions or discussion? | 00:07:20 | |
| So look for a motion to. | 00:07:24 | |
| Approve this outside of a meeting contingent upon. | 00:07:27 | |
| County approval of that agreement. | 00:07:31 | |
| Yeah, County approval of the agreement with execution of the agreement outside of a meeting as well, please. | 00:07:33 | |
| I'll make that motion. | 00:07:37 | |
| And now second. | 00:07:39 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:07:40 | |
| Thank you. Thank you. | 00:07:43 | |
| Moving along, we have. | 00:07:54 | |
| Seal coding quotes. | 00:07:56 | |
| We requested quotes from Lids and Matt Jacks. | 00:07:59 | |
| 14311 Haas Square. | 00:08:04 | |
| And the second for 3317 Grant Line Rd. | 00:08:06 | |
| The first four hoth square. | 00:08:10 | |
| Umm is 7900. | 00:08:14 | |
| And the second for. | 00:08:18 | |
| The Grant Line roads. | 00:08:20 | |
| Building is 8210. | 00:08:22 | |
| That work. | 00:08:26 | |
| We'll wait until the construction is completed. | 00:08:27 | |
| But the square one would. | 00:08:31 | |
| We'll move forward. | 00:08:33 | |
| OK, so the square. | 00:08:35 | |
| Is it the parking lot? | 00:08:40 | |
| Yeah, the parking surrounding the City County building. | 00:08:42 | |
| The parking lot at the corner. | 00:08:45 | |
| Oh, both of them, OK. | 00:08:48 | |
| Got you. | 00:08:49 | |
| All right, and the. | 00:08:54 | |
| The quote for the health department building is going to be valid until completion, but there's no calendar date on that. I mean, | 00:08:56 | |
| I know we're supposed to be in, but. | 00:09:00 | |
| Like if this goes. | 00:09:04 | |
| Beyond that? | 00:09:05 | |
| This doesn't have. | 00:09:07 | |
| Go stale by date. | 00:09:08 | |
| Or anything like that? No, they they said that they would wait to do OK until we're ready to do it. | 00:09:09 | |
| Any other questions? | 00:09:16 | |
| Discussion. If not, I'll offer a motion to approve those or accept those. | 00:09:18 | |
| Make a motion to approve the seal coating quote. | 00:09:21 | |
| I'll second. | 00:09:25 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:09:25 | |
| Next step we have River Hills community contribution is their annual contribution. | 00:09:34 | |
| 26,560. | 00:09:39 | |
| For their services. | 00:09:43 | |
| OK, in reviewing their. | 00:09:50 | |
| Materials looks like that. | 00:09:52 | |
| Money is leveraged and brings us. | 00:09:54 | |
| Far in excess of that in Grant so. | 00:09:56 | |
| Yeah, I was gonna ask if you if you could just on the records and ask rough fast to me. I'm not gonna ask you for his exact dollar | 00:10:00 | |
| amount. Well, they, they've assisted us in getting our EDA grant. | 00:10:04 | |
| Uh, Alabama Purpose. | 00:10:09 | |
| $3,000,000 They are the administrators of their ready funds and are assisting us with those applications. | 00:10:11 | |
| They have assisted us with. | 00:10:19 | |
| Some disaster planning and other planning. | 00:10:22 | |
| Our our contribution also allows them to assist Georgetown and Greenville and other communities in the county, which I know | 00:10:25 | |
| they've done a lot of planning in Georgetown. | 00:10:30 | |
| Any further questions or discussion? | 00:10:37 | |
| Make a motion to approve. | 00:10:39 | |
| 2nd. | 00:10:41 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:10:42 | |
| The next item is. | 00:10:46 | |
| Quote for the security doors at. | 00:10:49 | |
| The Government Center downtown. | 00:10:53 | |
| It's from Sir System Integration Resources 7300 and 3250, and that's for cameras and access control in the first floor. | 00:10:57 | |
| All right. And they are the provider that we use for the rest of the building. | 00:11:15 | |
| Right. | 00:11:19 | |
| Make a motion to accept. | 00:11:21 | |
| I'll second the motion and a second. All in favor, aye? | 00:11:23 | |
| Aye. | 00:11:27 | |
| And then they had. The last item I have is an updated local match commitment letter. | 00:11:30 | |
| This is for Freddy 2.0 and Lily and Dominic Dwight. | 00:11:36 | |
| Elimination application that we have for the Edwardsville School renovation project. | 00:11:42 | |
| The local match commitment of 2,314,700 and 9092. | 00:11:48 | |
| For that project it was. | 00:11:54 | |
| 2,800,000. | 00:11:57 | |
| Some dollars so it's coming down since we're. | 00:12:00 | |
| Adding a additional request for funding for the flight elimination. | 00:12:03 | |
| All right, I'm satisfied with that now. | 00:12:12 | |
| A motion to approve. | 00:12:15 | |
| 2nd. | 00:12:16 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:12:17 | |
| Aye, thank you very much. | 00:12:18 | |
| County Auditor Diana Topping. | 00:12:22 | |
| Good evening. | 00:12:29 | |
| So we made it through our. | 00:12:30 | |
| First round of. | 00:12:33 | |
| Grant auditing for lack of a better way to describe that. So we met with all of the different departments that. | 00:12:36 | |
| Whole grants went over to make sure that we had. | 00:12:42 | |
| Everything in order for 2026 currently and we'll continue to do that throughout the year quarterly. | 00:12:45 | |
| As we've worked through that, I realized that there were a few things that Mister Fox and I had previously. | 00:12:50 | |
| Discussed tweaking that didn't make it into the final ordinance and then since then I've worked with Miss Fox to. | 00:12:58 | |
| Just clean up a little bit of the process itself, Take out some redundancy that wasn't necessarily. | 00:13:04 | |
| Needed in there. | 00:13:10 | |
| And clean up the language a little bit. The only places I believe that that's really affected is under Grant record keeping | 00:13:13 | |
| numbers 4-5 and six. | 00:13:17 | |
| I'd be happy to go over that with you. | 00:13:22 | |
| It doesn't affect any of the department heads because. | 00:13:24 | |
| This reflects how we actually did the auditing this first quarter of the year, so. | 00:13:26 | |
| It wouldn't be any news to them at this point. | 00:13:31 | |
| I didn't have any problem with that. I thought it was straightforward. I did too. | 00:13:35 | |
| I'll make a motion to accept. | 00:13:39 | |
| Floyd County Ordinance 2026. | 00:13:42 | |
| What's your name by unanimous approval. | 00:13:45 | |
| I'll second. | 00:13:48 | |
| The motion in a second, all in favor. Aye aye. | 00:13:49 | |
| All right. Thank you. Thank you, gentlemen. | 00:13:53 | |
| All right, County Attorney Christy Fox, thank you. The first thing I have is an executive session affidavit from April 20th, 2026. | 00:13:56 | |
| This would be. | 00:13:59 | |
| You all approving this memorandum and signing off on it. It will be kept with the minutes from this meeting. Outlines that the | 00:14:03 | |
| only things discussed at that executive session were. | 00:14:08 | |
| Outlined by statute #1 for discussion of strategy with respect to litigation #2 communications with an attorney they're subject. | 00:14:13 | |
| To attorney-client privilege. | 00:14:20 | |
| Looking for approval of that. | 00:14:22 | |
| Affidavit. | 00:14:24 | |
| Motion to approve. | 00:14:26 | |
| 2nd. | 00:14:27 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:14:28 | |
| Next thing I have is the River Valley Resources host agency agreement. This. | 00:14:31 | |
| Is. | 00:14:36 | |
| To do with the solid waste volunteers, the RVR River Valley Resources pays all the. | 00:14:37 | |
| Umm, fees for those employees that would come over? I'm not sure. I don't. | 00:14:43 | |
| Maybe Stan can speak more to it, but I think it's my understanding that Solid Waste is interested in bringing this platform on and | 00:14:50 | |
| they would like to get that started. | 00:14:54 | |
| But if there's anything else I'm missing, Stan. | 00:14:59 | |
| I just think one of the main components is any workers comp claims that may occur while these individuals are on our premises. | 00:15:04 | |
| Are completely covered by River Valley resources as well, so. | 00:15:11 | |
| River Valley covers everything but. | 00:15:15 | |
| We get to utilize their time. | 00:15:17 | |
| We do have to make sure we keep track of their time and all that which I. | 00:15:18 | |
| Beliefs always started doing with all its employees anyway, so. | 00:15:21 | |
| I think it's awesome program. | 00:15:26 | |
| Yeah, like a motion to approve. | 00:15:27 | |
| Proverbial win, win. | 00:15:28 | |
| Don't have? | 00:15:31 | |
| Problem with it except for. | 00:15:32 | |
| The copy that I have is not, it's all blank. | 00:15:33 | |
| It'll be filled in before you sign off on it. | 00:15:37 | |
| OK. | 00:15:39 | |
| I'll second. | 00:15:40 | |
| Motion in a second. All in favor, aye? | 00:15:42 | |
| The last thing I have is an encroachment agreement. This came over from stormwater. | 00:15:46 | |
| That's related to a property on Golfland Court. Homeowners own 2 parcels side by side. | 00:15:51 | |
| There's an easement in between those, or at the edge of their. | 00:15:56 | |
| Property line that they are wanting to build in this agreement outlines that they are allowed to do that, but if we ever need that | 00:16:00 | |
| easement for any reason, they would have to remove any structure, anything they put in that easement location at their own cost. | 00:16:06 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve the encroachment agreement for 4312 Golfland Court Floyd Knobs. | 00:16:13 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:16:20 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:16:22 | |
| All right, seeking approval of the Commissioners meeting minutes from April 21, 2026, so moved. | 00:16:25 | |
| 2nd. | 00:16:31 | |
| All in favor aye and approval of the payroll and claims. | 00:16:32 | |
| Motion to approve. | 00:16:37 | |
| 2nd. | 00:16:39 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:16:39 | |
| All right, our next Commissioners meeting is Tuesday, May 19th, 2026 at 6:00 PM. | 00:16:42 | |
| I will be absent that meeting. | 00:16:49 | |
| OK. | 00:16:52 | |
| Any I don't see any public officials here tonight. | 00:16:55 | |
| Speak any. | 00:17:00 | |
| Statements from the public tonight. | 00:17:01 | |
| All right, closing statements from Commissioner. | 00:17:05 | |
| None. | 00:17:08 | |
| Happy International Firefighters Day. | 00:17:10 | |
| And may the fourth be with you. | 00:17:14 | |
| Yeah. | 00:17:15 | |
| I just want to reiterate again because some of this happened a bit fast tonight and at the last. | 00:17:17 | |
| Joint meeting again. | 00:17:21 | |
| Restructuring. | 00:17:25 | |
| Of the solid waste district and bringing it under our management has. | 00:17:26 | |
| Allowed for us to. | 00:17:30 | |
| Pay for the animal shelter. | 00:17:32 | |
| A building with cash on hand so no bonding 207 plus. | 00:17:34 | |
| $1000. | 00:17:38 | |
| And again tonight, one of the items that I'm. | 00:17:41 | |
| Most proud of tonight is we're bringing volunteer services on board to supplement. | 00:17:43 | |
| Our staff. | 00:17:48 | |
| Not to replace them with. | 00:17:50 | |
| But to supplement and. | 00:17:52 | |
| We want this to be volunteer driven and and so we're going to be partnering. | 00:17:53 | |
| With River Valley and. | 00:17:57 | |

| Yes, Sir, Yeah. | 00:02:00 | |
| I had no questions about it and I know that. | 00:02:02 | |
| Procedurally. | 00:02:04 | |
| We're we're doing these three. | 00:02:05 | |
| This venue now, so I appreciate the answer step that it takes. | 00:02:07 | |
| On a busy night for you so look for a motion to approve. | 00:02:11 | |
| I make a motion to approve. I'll second. | 00:02:14 | |

| All right. Chief Operating Officer Nick Creevy. | 00:02:20 | |
| Good evening. | 00:02:26 | |
| The first item I have before you is a. | 00:02:27 | |
| Resolution for Blue River services. | 00:02:31 | |
| To apply for their 5311. | 00:02:35 | |
| Funding the resolutions FCR 202606. | 00:02:38 | |
| And that is a. | 00:02:44 | |
| Including up to a $4000 local match. | 00:02:46 | |
| This allows them to apply for federal funding for those services. | 00:02:51 | |
| In Floyd County. | 00:02:57 | |
| OK. And we arrived at that number because last year they had approximately 200. | 00:02:59 | |
| Service runs that we figured $20 per run seemed reasonable in Floyd County, correct? That's correct. They they received a 2 to one | 00:03:03 | |
| match. | 00:03:07 | |
| For that. | 00:03:11 | |
| Alright, I'll look for a motion to approve. | 00:03:13 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve Floyd County Resolution 2026-06. | 00:03:15 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:03:19 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:03:20 | |
| The next item I have is a change order for the Nova Park Building 5. | 00:03:24 | |
| This is a 267,200 and 1550. | 00:03:29 | |
| Reduction. | 00:03:34 | |
| Change order for that project. | 00:03:36 | |
| That part project is finished up, so this is a. | 00:03:38 | |
| A reduction of 267,250. | 00:03:41 | |
| Did you say a reduction? I just wanted to emphasize, can you say reduction one more time? | 00:03:45 | |
| Alright, I am. | 00:03:52 | |
| I have no. | 00:03:54 | |
| Questions regarding that Motion approved. | 00:03:54 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:03:57 | |
| Alright, the next item is. | 00:04:00 | |
| For Inside USA contracting with Center Point, they're doing some work. | 00:04:03 | |
| On Thai Avenue. A few other representatives are here. | 00:04:10 | |
| To discuss the project. | 00:04:14 | |
| They will be requesting the use of a county parcel. | 00:04:16 | |
| Uh, after they go over the project, I would request that, uh, the commissioners. | 00:04:20 | |
| Approve an agreement. | 00:04:26 | |
| To be approved outside of this meeting to allow. | 00:04:28 | |
| Work in that parcel by them to complete the project. | 00:04:31 | |
| Come and describe what the project is for the question. | 00:04:37 | |
| Yeah. | 00:04:47 | |
| Jeremy Baltic over the center point. I'm an engineer with Centerpoint. | 00:04:50 | |
| On Thai Ave. we currently have a design to bore underneath Thai Ave. | 00:04:53 | |
| From. | 00:04:57 | |
| Blackliston run. | 00:04:58 | |
| All the way to the other side to corner. | 00:04:59 | |
| We like to. | 00:05:02 | |
| To put a temporary bridge over Blackstone, run so we can string pipe. | 00:05:04 | |
| Over the over there instead of in the middle of the Tyre Ave. | 00:05:07 | |
| Because we don't want to block the driveways of the homeowners. | 00:05:10 | |
| And that's pretty much what we're trying to do. | 00:05:13 | |
| And we brought this up. | 00:05:16 | |
| We met with the. | 00:05:17 | |
| Floyd the people of Floyd discussed about. | 00:05:19 | |
| Putting this like car rail. | 00:05:21 | |
| It's like 90 feet. | 00:05:23 | |
| 91 feet. | 00:05:24 | |
| Long and we just come bank to bank over the. | 00:05:25 | |
| Blacks on run. | 00:05:27 | |
| And then we can string pipe on top of it, kind of like workspace. | 00:05:28 | |
| It's about 90 square feet below it, so we won't be impacted anymore. | 00:05:31 | |
| Flood water. | 00:05:35 | |
| But this will allow us to. | 00:05:37 | |
| Work over there instead of in the road. | 00:05:38 | |
| It allows us not to trench Thai avenues but we both do like pretty much limit all the trenching. | 00:05:41 | |
| On Thai Ave. we can. | 00:05:45 | |
| Too much bore underneath the whole Rd. | 00:05:47 | |
| All the way to. | 00:05:48 | |
| That's pretty much what we're trying to do. | 00:05:50 | |
| No, we won't block any driveways, not care about the road. | 00:05:52 | |
| So what will actually pass back and forth over the? | 00:05:56 | |
| Excuse me, what will actually pass back and forth over the only their product? | 00:05:59 | |
| Right. | 00:06:04 | |
| There won't be vehicles going over a bridge. It's just no, you're a product. | 00:06:05 | |
| Yeah, OK. But we just it's like a kind of like a workspace. | 00:06:12 | |
| Yeah, because we put the. | 00:06:15 | |
| Pipe on the wheels and we welded together. | 00:06:17 | |
| We have to like X-ray it, coat it and take time to draw it. Then we pull it underneath the ground. | 00:06:19 | |
| Right, we can do it there instead of in the road. | 00:06:24 | |
| Yeah. | 00:06:27 | |
| Yeah. | 00:06:28 | |
| No, I certainly appreciate that there's not much room on Thai Ave. | 00:06:29 | |
| No, there's not, No. | 00:06:32 | |
| All right. Well, this came to us with an agreement. | 00:06:36 | |
| Or a recommendation from the Stormwater Board. | 00:06:38 | |
| To allow signing on this. | 00:06:43 | |
| Once an interlocal or a local. | 00:06:45 | |
| Start that agreement has been. | 00:06:48 | |
| Struck a pond between. | 00:06:50 | |
| The county. | 00:06:52 | |
| And center point. | 00:06:53 | |
| But with regards to, we will just want to flesh out some of the replacement in here with regards to. | 00:06:56 | |
| The trees, I mean if they're taking a 28 inch diameter tree down, we don't want a 2 inch tree diameter replacing that. Yeah, | 00:07:02 | |
| remove any trees, we'll put them back with native trees. And if we remove any vegetation, we replace those with native, especially | 00:07:06 | |
| the vegetation that has strong. | 00:07:10 | |
| Root systems keep the embankment. | 00:07:15 | |
| Start again strong. | 00:07:17 | |
| That we replace all. | 00:07:19 | |
| Yeah. Any further questions or discussion? | 00:07:20 | |
| So look for a motion to. | 00:07:24 | |
| Approve this outside of a meeting contingent upon. | 00:07:27 | |
| County approval of that agreement. | 00:07:31 | |
| Yeah, County approval of the agreement with execution of the agreement outside of a meeting as well, please. | 00:07:33 | |
| I'll make that motion. | 00:07:37 | |
| And now second. | 00:07:39 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:07:40 | |
| Thank you. Thank you. | 00:07:43 | |
| Moving along, we have. | 00:07:54 | |
| Seal coding quotes. | 00:07:56 | |
| We requested quotes from Lids and Matt Jacks. | 00:07:59 | |
| 14311 Haas Square. | 00:08:04 | |
| And the second for 3317 Grant Line Rd. | 00:08:06 | |
| The first four hoth square. | 00:08:10 | |
| Umm is 7900. | 00:08:14 | |
| And the second for. | 00:08:18 | |
| The Grant Line roads. | 00:08:20 | |
| Building is 8210. | 00:08:22 | |
| That work. | 00:08:26 | |
| We'll wait until the construction is completed. | 00:08:27 | |
| But the square one would. | 00:08:31 | |
| We'll move forward. | 00:08:33 | |
| OK, so the square. | 00:08:35 | |
| Is it the parking lot? | 00:08:40 | |
| Yeah, the parking surrounding the City County building. | 00:08:42 | |
| The parking lot at the corner. | 00:08:45 | |
| Oh, both of them, OK. | 00:08:48 | |
| Got you. | 00:08:49 | |
| All right, and the. | 00:08:54 | |
| The quote for the health department building is going to be valid until completion, but there's no calendar date on that. I mean, | 00:08:56 | |
| I know we're supposed to be in, but. | 00:09:00 | |
| Like if this goes. | 00:09:04 | |
| Beyond that? | 00:09:05 | |
| This doesn't have. | 00:09:07 | |
| Go stale by date. | 00:09:08 | |
| Or anything like that? No, they they said that they would wait to do OK until we're ready to do it. | 00:09:09 | |
| Any other questions? | 00:09:16 | |
| Discussion. If not, I'll offer a motion to approve those or accept those. | 00:09:18 | |
| Make a motion to approve the seal coating quote. | 00:09:21 | |
| I'll second. | 00:09:25 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:09:25 | |
| Next step we have River Hills community contribution is their annual contribution. | 00:09:34 | |
| 26,560. | 00:09:39 | |
| For their services. | 00:09:43 | |
| OK, in reviewing their. | 00:09:50 | |
| Materials looks like that. | 00:09:52 | |
| Money is leveraged and brings us. | 00:09:54 | |
| Far in excess of that in Grant so. | 00:09:56 | |
| Yeah, I was gonna ask if you if you could just on the records and ask rough fast to me. I'm not gonna ask you for his exact dollar | 00:10:00 | |
| amount. Well, they, they've assisted us in getting our EDA grant. | 00:10:04 | |
| Uh, Alabama Purpose. | 00:10:09 | |
| $3,000,000 They are the administrators of their ready funds and are assisting us with those applications. | 00:10:11 | |
| They have assisted us with. | 00:10:19 | |
| Some disaster planning and other planning. | 00:10:22 | |
| Our our contribution also allows them to assist Georgetown and Greenville and other communities in the county, which I know | 00:10:25 | |
| they've done a lot of planning in Georgetown. | 00:10:30 | |
| Any further questions or discussion? | 00:10:37 | |
| Make a motion to approve. | 00:10:39 | |
| 2nd. | 00:10:41 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:10:42 | |
| The next item is. | 00:10:46 | |
| Quote for the security doors at. | 00:10:49 | |
| The Government Center downtown. | 00:10:53 | |
| It's from Sir System Integration Resources 7300 and 3250, and that's for cameras and access control in the first floor. | 00:10:57 | |
| All right. And they are the provider that we use for the rest of the building. | 00:11:15 | |
| Right. | 00:11:19 | |
| Make a motion to accept. | 00:11:21 | |
| I'll second the motion and a second. All in favor, aye? | 00:11:23 | |
| Aye. | 00:11:27 | |
| And then they had. The last item I have is an updated local match commitment letter. | 00:11:30 | |
| This is for Freddy 2.0 and Lily and Dominic Dwight. | 00:11:36 | |
| Elimination application that we have for the Edwardsville School renovation project. | 00:11:42 | |
| The local match commitment of 2,314,700 and 9092. | 00:11:48 | |
| For that project it was. | 00:11:54 | |
| 2,800,000. | 00:11:57 | |
| Some dollars so it's coming down since we're. | 00:12:00 | |
| Adding a additional request for funding for the flight elimination. | 00:12:03 | |
| All right, I'm satisfied with that now. | 00:12:12 | |
| A motion to approve. | 00:12:15 | |
| 2nd. | 00:12:16 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:12:17 | |
| Aye, thank you very much. | 00:12:18 | |
| County Auditor Diana Topping. | 00:12:22 | |
| Good evening. | 00:12:29 | |
| So we made it through our. | 00:12:30 | |
| First round of. | 00:12:33 | |
| Grant auditing for lack of a better way to describe that. So we met with all of the different departments that. | 00:12:36 | |
| Whole grants went over to make sure that we had. | 00:12:42 | |
| Everything in order for 2026 currently and we'll continue to do that throughout the year quarterly. | 00:12:45 | |
| As we've worked through that, I realized that there were a few things that Mister Fox and I had previously. | 00:12:50 | |
| Discussed tweaking that didn't make it into the final ordinance and then since then I've worked with Miss Fox to. | 00:12:58 | |
| Just clean up a little bit of the process itself, Take out some redundancy that wasn't necessarily. | 00:13:04 | |
| Needed in there. | 00:13:10 | |
| And clean up the language a little bit. The only places I believe that that's really affected is under Grant record keeping | 00:13:13 | |
| numbers 4-5 and six. | 00:13:17 | |
| I'd be happy to go over that with you. | 00:13:22 | |
| It doesn't affect any of the department heads because. | 00:13:24 | |
| This reflects how we actually did the auditing this first quarter of the year, so. | 00:13:26 | |
| It wouldn't be any news to them at this point. | 00:13:31 | |
| I didn't have any problem with that. I thought it was straightforward. I did too. | 00:13:35 | |
| I'll make a motion to accept. | 00:13:39 | |
| Floyd County Ordinance 2026. | 00:13:42 | |
| What's your name by unanimous approval. | 00:13:45 | |
| I'll second. | 00:13:48 | |
| The motion in a second, all in favor. Aye aye. | 00:13:49 | |
| All right. Thank you. Thank you, gentlemen. | 00:13:53 | |
| All right, County Attorney Christy Fox, thank you. The first thing I have is an executive session affidavit from April 20th, 2026. | 00:13:56 | |
| This would be. | 00:13:59 | |
| You all approving this memorandum and signing off on it. It will be kept with the minutes from this meeting. Outlines that the | 00:14:03 | |
| only things discussed at that executive session were. | 00:14:08 | |
| Outlined by statute #1 for discussion of strategy with respect to litigation #2 communications with an attorney they're subject. | 00:14:13 | |
| To attorney-client privilege. | 00:14:20 | |
| Looking for approval of that. | 00:14:22 | |
| Affidavit. | 00:14:24 | |
| Motion to approve. | 00:14:26 | |
| 2nd. | 00:14:27 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:14:28 | |
| Next thing I have is the River Valley Resources host agency agreement. This. | 00:14:31 | |
| Is. | 00:14:36 | |
| To do with the solid waste volunteers, the RVR River Valley Resources pays all the. | 00:14:37 | |
| Umm, fees for those employees that would come over? I'm not sure. I don't. | 00:14:43 | |
| Maybe Stan can speak more to it, but I think it's my understanding that Solid Waste is interested in bringing this platform on and | 00:14:50 | |
| they would like to get that started. | 00:14:54 | |
| But if there's anything else I'm missing, Stan. | 00:14:59 | |
| I just think one of the main components is any workers comp claims that may occur while these individuals are on our premises. | 00:15:04 | |
| Are completely covered by River Valley resources as well, so. | 00:15:11 | |
| River Valley covers everything but. | 00:15:15 | |
| We get to utilize their time. | 00:15:17 | |
| We do have to make sure we keep track of their time and all that which I. | 00:15:18 | |
| Beliefs always started doing with all its employees anyway, so. | 00:15:21 | |
| I think it's awesome program. | 00:15:26 | |
| Yeah, like a motion to approve. | 00:15:27 | |
| Proverbial win, win. | 00:15:28 | |
| Don't have? | 00:15:31 | |
| Problem with it except for. | 00:15:32 | |
| The copy that I have is not, it's all blank. | 00:15:33 | |
| It'll be filled in before you sign off on it. | 00:15:37 | |
| OK. | 00:15:39 | |
| I'll second. | 00:15:40 | |
| Motion in a second. All in favor, aye? | 00:15:42 | |
| The last thing I have is an encroachment agreement. This came over from stormwater. | 00:15:46 | |
| That's related to a property on Golfland Court. Homeowners own 2 parcels side by side. | 00:15:51 | |
| There's an easement in between those, or at the edge of their. | 00:15:56 | |
| Property line that they are wanting to build in this agreement outlines that they are allowed to do that, but if we ever need that | 00:16:00 | |
| easement for any reason, they would have to remove any structure, anything they put in that easement location at their own cost. | 00:16:06 | |
| I'll make a motion to approve the encroachment agreement for 4312 Golfland Court Floyd Knobs. | 00:16:13 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:16:20 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:16:22 | |
| All right, seeking approval of the Commissioners meeting minutes from April 21, 2026, so moved. | 00:16:25 | |
| 2nd. | 00:16:31 | |
| All in favor aye and approval of the payroll and claims. | 00:16:32 | |
| Motion to approve. | 00:16:37 | |
| 2nd. | 00:16:39 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:16:39 | |
| All right, our next Commissioners meeting is Tuesday, May 19th, 2026 at 6:00 PM. | 00:16:42 | |
| I will be absent that meeting. | 00:16:49 | |
| OK. | 00:16:52 | |
| Any I don't see any public officials here tonight. | 00:16:55 | |
| Speak any. | 00:17:00 | |
| Statements from the public tonight. | 00:17:01 | |
| All right, closing statements from Commissioner. | 00:17:05 | |
| None. | 00:17:08 | |
| Happy International Firefighters Day. | 00:17:10 | |
| And may the fourth be with you. | 00:17:14 | |
| Yeah. | 00:17:15 | |
| I just want to reiterate again because some of this happened a bit fast tonight and at the last. | 00:17:17 | |
| Joint meeting again. | 00:17:21 | |
| Restructuring. | 00:17:25 | |
| Of the solid waste district and bringing it under our management has. | 00:17:26 | |
| Allowed for us to. | 00:17:30 | |
| Pay for the animal shelter. | 00:17:32 | |
| A building with cash on hand so no bonding 207 plus. | 00:17:34 | |
| $1000. | 00:17:38 | |
| And again tonight, one of the items that I'm. | 00:17:41 | |
| Most proud of tonight is we're bringing volunteer services on board to supplement. | 00:17:43 | |
| Our staff. | 00:17:48 | |
| Not to replace them with. | 00:17:50 | |
| But to supplement and. | 00:17:52 | |
