| This meeting order you will please rise and. | 00:00:02 | |
| One is in the plight of allegiance. | 00:00:06 | |
| I pledge allegiance to the flag. | 00:00:08 | |
| Of the United States of America. | 00:00:10 | |
| And to the Republic. | 00:00:12 | |
| Which stands one nation? | 00:00:14 | |
| Under God, indivisible with. | 00:00:16 | |
| Liberty and justice for all. | 00:00:18 | |
| All right, if you. | 00:00:23 | |
| Have a cell phone if you don't mind putting that on silent. | 00:00:26 | |
| And. | 00:00:30 | |
| Let's sit back and just have a. | 00:00:33 | |
| Quiet moment for individual prayer, meditation, reflection. | 00:00:34 | |
| Get ready for tonight's meeting. | 00:00:39 | |
| All right. Thank you and welcome. | 00:00:59 | |
| To our last scheduled meeting of November. | 00:01:02 | |
| We have a relatively short agenda and we'll have time for public comment afterwards. | 00:01:05 | |
| First, under new business, the sheriff Steve Bush with a contract for healthcare personnel and administration amendment. | 00:01:11 | |
| Thank you very much. Before you is an amendment to our original contract for medical contract in the jail. | 00:01:18 | |
| I'm gonna just explain it in two parts because there's two amendments. | 00:01:24 | |
| The first one is. | 00:01:26 | |
| For the last quarter of this year from September to December. | 00:01:28 | |
| In terms of reimbursement, the numbers changed our contract stay statically. | 00:01:31 | |
| Towards the end of the year. | 00:01:35 | |
| But they had it raised, so this is just showing an amendment that it stays static. | 00:01:37 | |
| The numbers reflect that. | 00:01:41 | |
| The second part of the amendment is. | 00:01:43 | |
| Starting in February of next year, the Baptist Health will no longer do blood draws. | 00:01:46 | |
| And so we had to kind of look at that. They get that in our contract and we talked about doing 24/7 nurses. So we had and agreed. | 00:01:51 | |
| In our budget for an extra 84 hours. | 00:01:57 | |
| That'll give us coverage at night. | 00:02:00 | |
| And so those two things are in this amendment, in this contract. | 00:02:03 | |
| So it's basically both of them. | 00:02:06 | |
| And that covers you through 2026 on the nursing edition. | 00:02:08 | |
| That'll start next year. | 00:02:11 | |
| OK in our new budget. | 00:02:13 | |
| Cause and effect OK. | 00:02:16 | |
| We sent the original contract over to Rick in the afternoon, but I don't think he had time to review it. So my request is. | 00:02:19 | |
| Indicated that potential will table it, but my request is it to approve it based off Rick's approval. | 00:02:24 | |
| Outside the meeting. | 00:02:30 | |
| Yeah, I don't think any of us have a problem with. | 00:02:32 | |
| What's being proposed? | 00:02:35 | |
| And. | 00:02:36 | |
| Sounds like time is more of the of the essence than what I had thought. So one of them is yes, right? | 00:02:38 | |
| Yeah, I'm OK with with that. If the other two commissioners are, it would be subject to. | 00:02:45 | |
| Review and approval rather than just review, but so we would still have the. | 00:02:51 | |
| Ability to. | 00:02:56 | |
| Not approve of it. | 00:02:58 | |
| You know, so I would suggest it an e-mail form. | 00:03:00 | |
| Looking over the main contract and send an e-mail to all of us. | 00:03:03 | |
| What's your what kind of deadline are you because? | 00:03:06 | |
| The one for the closeout of the year was to begin. | 00:03:09 | |
| Immediately, right? Yeah. So that's the time frame on that one. The other one can wait. | 00:03:12 | |
| Rather do them together, but that one's more immediate. | 00:03:16 | |
| If you prefer to separate it out and do the other one next meeting, which we'll have to wait two weeks. | 00:03:19 | |
| I don't like initially to do that. I'd like to get them both signed. | 00:03:23 | |
| Because that's they were wanting, but at the same time because we're stains, we have to do it in place. The 24/7 nursing needs to | 00:03:26 | |
| be in place. | 00:03:29 | |
| As they start to hire for that and get prepared and trained for that for the first, I know you've been contemplating this | 00:03:32 | |
| sometime. I think we discussed. | 00:03:35 | |
| Three or four months ago and I think you had some more conversations. When, when does the agreement? | 00:03:39 | |
| So. So Baptist has already pulled out of doing that. | 00:03:44 | |
| I'm sorry, Baptist has already pulled out of doing those for that at the end they've given us till February. As far as blood | 00:03:47 | |
| draws, that's just. | 00:03:50 | |
| That's a little bit more that the prosecutor's office once blood drops to a search warrant. | 00:03:53 | |
| And so that's so that's our. | 00:03:58 | |
| Since we're not going to do it, we'd rather have something, so that's why we added that into our contract. | 00:04:00 | |
| For our nursing staff. | 00:04:05 | |
| As far as outside agencies, you'll see in there the charge more, but I don't suspect. | 00:04:06 | |
| Most of them will come there to pay that. | 00:04:10 | |
| OK. | 00:04:12 | |
| Just an asking. | 00:04:14 | |
| If you. | 00:04:18 | |
| So. | 00:04:20 | |
| If Georgetown or. | 00:04:21 | |
| New Albany State Police. | 00:04:23 | |
| Conservation officers, whoever. | 00:04:26 | |
| They can't go to. | 00:04:29 | |
| Baptist either. | 00:04:30 | |
| Correct, That is correct. | 00:04:31 | |
| So if. | 00:04:33 | |
| They don't. | 00:04:34 | |
| Pay this fee. | 00:04:35 | |
| Or has there been a discussion with them or? | 00:04:38 | |
| There's been a discussion with the prosecutor. This is, as you know, by law. | 00:04:41 | |
| We don't have to. | 00:04:46 | |
| Get blood draws or anything like that, we have a refusal law. | 00:04:47 | |
| And you get refused with the prosecutor that's been going on before Chris Lang through Keith as you're. | 00:04:50 | |
| That's what they were required to do, the search warrants to get the blood draw. | 00:04:55 | |
| And do that so with Baptist Health, not. | 00:04:59 | |
| Doing anymore, that presents a little bit of a problem. | 00:05:01 | |
| And so I'm not sure what normally will do. | 00:05:03 | |
| You know, I think Chris, this potential might have a conversation with you or the council in terms of who would pay for that. Are | 00:05:06 | |
| we going to require each agency to pay for it? | 00:05:10 | |
| Outside of us are we going to pay for? | 00:05:13 | |
| Within our own contract. | 00:05:15 | |
| So that's I think those discussions are still this is just putting in there if we want to do this and go this direction. | 00:05:17 | |
| There's been different. | 00:05:22 | |
| Ways brought up before them. | 00:05:24 | |
| Train officers to do it. | 00:05:26 | |
| We don't want to do that. | 00:05:27 | |
| Have EMS do it. I don't think we want to do that either. So. | 00:05:29 | |
| This was at least amount to do. | 00:05:31 | |
| Invasive for everybody involved. | 00:05:33 | |
| But at least have it prepared to do it if this is the direction we want to go. | 00:05:35 | |
| If that makes sense. Is the money appropriated? | 00:05:39 | |
| OK, umm. | 00:05:43 | |
| I don't have a problem with the issue. I tried to do that. | 00:05:47 | |
| As well. | 00:05:49 | |
| I was going to use a paramedic on 3rd shift. | 00:05:50 | |
| However. | 00:05:53 | |
| What what I find was happening with a fee. | 00:05:56 | |
| And I'm just throwing it out there. I don't know what's going to happen. | 00:06:00 | |
| It's going to encourage officers not to draw that blood or not to make that arrest. | 00:06:04 | |
| And because their agency doesn't want to pay the bill and. | 00:06:10 | |
| That could be a public safety issue to me. | 00:06:14 | |
| So and I don't doesn't have anything to do with you. I'm just saying that I don't I don't disagree with, I agree with you. | 00:06:17 | |
| Yeah, I mean, I think there's more discussion needs to be had. | 00:06:23 | |
| At the time we were under the gun, we met a couple of times at the hospital. They were not going to give us that far, but we asked | 00:06:25 | |
| for it to give us more time. | 00:06:28 | |
| You know, and the reason the back story is a lot of people came over from Clark County, stopped doing it in their hospital | 00:06:31 | |
| originally and survey was coming to Floyd. | 00:06:34 | |
| And it brought the attention to him and they start looking to the legal team and all that, you know, the attorneys. | 00:06:38 | |
| How they are but. | 00:06:42 | |
| He would strike that from the record. My bad. You're pretty OK to me, Rick. | 00:06:45 | |
| You are right anyways. | 00:06:49 | |
| That's part I think there's I agree with. I think there's more discussion still needs to be had, but this is what we want to get | 00:06:51 | |
| in the contract to be prepared for. | 00:06:54 | |
| If that's the worst case scenario, we want to do that. | 00:06:57 | |
| All right. Well, I'll make a motion that we. | 00:07:01 | |
| Accept this agreement based. | 00:07:04 | |
| On review of. | 00:07:07 | |
| Rick Fox's approval. | 00:07:10 | |
| All right, I'll second. | 00:07:13 | |
| All right. | 00:07:15 | |
| Any other questions or discussion? I have one question, how how long do you anticipate that review taking? | 00:07:17 | |
| We can get it done in a couple days. | 00:07:26 | |
| By the week, we'll decide if you prefer. I would have. | 00:07:28 | |
| Rick, once he's done reviewing it, send Nemo to us. | 00:07:31 | |
| And then everybody can sign off on. Yeah, yeah, we'll have to have notification that it's. | 00:07:34 | |
| Meets approval, I mean I. | 00:07:38 | |
| Yeah, OK. I have a motion a second. All in favor, aye. | 00:07:39 | |
| Thank you very much. All right, thank you. Next step is Chief Operations Officer Nick Creevy. And we do have an addition on his | 00:07:45 | |
| agenda. We have items A/B and C, but. | 00:07:50 | |
| I will look for a motion to add by unanimous consent, an item D, which is Floyd County Ordinance 2025-25 establishing the speed | 00:07:55 | |
| limit. | 00:07:59 | |
| On a portion of Grant Line Rd. and even though it's under a. | 00:08:04 | |
| Nick's agenda will have a core ratio come up and speak to that too at that point. | 00:08:07 | |
| If it's added to the agenda. | 00:08:12 | |
| Second all in favor, aye aye. | 00:08:14 | |
| It's creamy, all right. The first item I have is a. | 00:08:18 | |
| AIA form contract for Kevco. | 00:08:22 | |
| For the renovations at the. | 00:08:26 | |
| Government Center downtown. | 00:08:29 | |
| They worry a little bitter. We've had our pre construction conferences. They are ready to go once we. | 00:08:32 | |
| Approve this contract. | 00:08:38 | |
| It is for the little bit amount. | 00:08:40 | |
| $455,345. | 00:08:43 | |
| To the ready to start tomorrow. | 00:08:48 | |
| My understanding is they're ready to get in there and start doing a little bit of the demo this week, yes. | 00:08:50 | |
| Good. Is that going to disturb you? | 00:08:55 | |
| And uh. | 00:08:59 | |
| OK, good. | 00:09:00 | |
| Make a motion to accept. | 00:09:00 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:09:02 | |
| All in favor. | 00:09:03 | |
| Aye. | 00:09:04 | |
| And Nick, I mentioned to Susanna, if you could e-mail that to Glenn Smith. | 00:09:06 | |
| For his review to make sure that we have all the insurance coverages that are in that. | 00:09:12 | |
| Document. | 00:09:18 | |
| The next item I have is FCR 2025-22. | 00:09:23 | |
| Knobs landing. | 00:09:30 | |
| Expanded TIF area resolution. | 00:09:31 | |
| This was a resolution. | 00:09:35 | |
| For expanding the TIF area. | 00:09:37 | |
| For the knobs landing development, which is the development? | 00:09:40 | |
| At Old Vincennes and Schreiber Rd. | 00:09:46 | |
| Two parcels of that developing are in the current Highlander Edwardsville. | 00:09:49 | |
| If two parcels are not the parcels that the current house. | 00:09:54 | |
| Garage or on? | 00:09:59 | |
| So to bring those into the TIF, we. | 00:10:01 | |
| Requested. | 00:10:04 | |
| Expansion of that area. This would be a new. | 00:10:06 | |
| TIF area. | 00:10:09 | |
| It would start talking just these two parcels. | 00:10:11 | |
| Apparently restart anything on the existing TIF. | 00:10:14 | |
| And the proceeds of that. | 00:10:17 | |
| It would be used for infrastructure improvements. | 00:10:20 | |
| At Hwy. 150 the Light. | 00:10:24 | |
| The break in the. | 00:10:27 | |
| Intersection there. | 00:10:29 | |
| As as well as potentially Shriver Rd. improve rates. | 00:10:31 | |
| And also that station preference. | 00:10:36 | |
| The Redevelopment Commission approved it resolution #2025-3, October 21st. | 00:10:42 | |
| Approved it as conforming with. | 00:10:52 | |
| The plans of County development on November 10th of 2025. | 00:10:54 | |
| OK. Any other further questions? | 00:11:01 | |
| Discussion comments. | 00:11:04 | |
| I don't have any questions outside of what I've already asked you, so thank you for taking time to address my questions. The only | 00:11:06 | |
| other comment that I'm going to make is, you know. | 00:11:10 | |
| We've had a lot of changes in our state legislation on the way that we're. | 00:11:15 | |
| Doing funding right now and. | 00:11:19 | |
| You know I. | 00:11:21 | |
| Very hesitant to. | 00:11:22 | |
| To add on to any TIF right now, so tonight I'll be voting no. | 00:11:23 | |
| We'll just add an additional note on the TIF. No, no bonding has occurred yet. | 00:11:29 | |
| On this we will have to. | 00:11:35 | |
| Pass the tip first, determine what project costs will be and then do that so the the impacts of SA-1. | 00:11:38 | |
| Will hopefully be better understood. | 00:11:45 | |
| At the time of bonding. | 00:11:48 | |
| This is just establishing the district. | 00:11:49 | |
| Mr. Loop, any comments? | 00:11:54 | |
| So does this need to be done now, then or? | 00:11:59 | |
| It has to be done before the bonding. | 00:12:02 | |
| Yes, it will have to be done before the bonding can occur. | 00:12:04 | |
| There will still be an additional public hearing for this that Redevelopment Commission is required to hold. | 00:12:10 | |
| Before it is finally approved. | 00:12:17 | |
| The reason why we got it started now is we wanted to get the base valuation of this year before any work commenced so that the. | 00:12:23 | |
| At most that we could capture would be captured if it was. | 00:12:34 | |
| I don't have any other. | 00:12:40 | |
| Comments. OK. | 00:12:41 | |
| I mean my only comment is I think this is a very focused. | 00:12:44 | |
| Used for TIFF and that's a good example of what was originally designed to do with regards to very specific infrastructure. | 00:12:48 | |
| Needs as compared to. | 00:12:55 | |
| What's some neighboring? | 00:12:58 | |
| Municipalities and counties have done with regards to. | 00:13:01 | |
| To to their. | 00:13:04 | |
| Wider interpretation of that so. | 00:13:05 | |
| I'm in favor of this. | 00:13:08 | |
| So I'll look for a motion. | 00:13:10 | |
| To approve. | 00:13:12 | |
| It's a. | 00:13:15 | |
| Is it 2025 or 20/25/22? I have like 3 in my hand here. | 00:13:18 | |
| Those are the previous ones from Redevelopment Commission. | 00:13:23 | |
| OK, just read off of. | 00:13:27 | |
| Right, OK. | 00:13:30 | |
| I'll make a motion for. | 00:13:32 | |
| Passage of Floyd County Resolution 2025. | 00:13:34 | |
| 22 non planned and expanded TIF area. | 00:13:38 | |
| All right. You OK with a second or? | 00:13:42 | |
| Would you rather not second? I'd rather not second. I'll second it so I have a motion and a second all in favor. | 00:13:45 | |
| Aye, opposed. | 00:13:51 | |
| Aye, OK. | 00:13:52 | |
| Thank you. | 00:13:54 | |
| The next item I have is a. | 00:13:56 | |
| Plant approval for Cottonwood Commons is plat #1587. | 00:13:59 | |
| We do have a development agreement and bonding in place. | 00:14:06 | |
| So this is the final approval there. | 00:14:11 | |
| 16 lots in the subdivision. | 00:14:14 | |
| Really. | 00:14:17 | |
| All right. Any questions? | 00:14:40 | |
| Pertaining to this matter from Nick. | 00:14:43 | |
| No questions for me. | 00:14:51 | |
| All right, other than signature, you need to know further, you need a motion to approve. | 00:14:54 | |
| I make a motion to approve. | 00:14:59 | |
| Cottonwood Commons, Plat, 1587. | 00:15:02 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:15:04 | |
| All in favor, aye aye. | 00:15:05 | |
| And then? | 00:15:09 | |
| The last item which Horatio will. | 00:15:11 | |
| Be able to answer any additional questions on is a. | 00:15:14 | |
| Ordinance or no, Excuse me, a resident. No, it is a ordinance. | 00:15:18 | |
| To lower the speed limit on Grant Line Rd. | 00:15:22 | |
| From Saint Joe's Road to Barack. | 00:15:27 | |
| From Saint Joe's Road to Barack Obama Way slash Security Parkway. | 00:15:30 | |
| It's currently 50 mph, bringing it down to 45 mph. There's a number of intersections along that. | 00:15:34 | |
| Stretch that our. | 00:15:43 | |
| Dangerous. | 00:15:45 | |
| We did a safety improvement plan last year with Kipta that identified that. We had a thorough first study a number of years before | 00:15:46 | |
| that also identified that. | 00:15:51 | |
| The Monon S pedestrian trail rail to trail is going on in there. | 00:15:57 | |
| So I think it makes good sense to bring that down. | 00:16:02 | |
| Just 55 mph. | 00:16:08 | |
| Horatio, do you have anything to? | 00:16:12 | |
| To add to that, I spoke with. | 00:16:14 | |
| Sheriff Bush about this earlier today and just to let him give him a heads up on it. And I don't think you had any comments you | 00:16:16 | |
| wish to make either, but please feel free to. | 00:16:20 | |
| Do so. | 00:16:24 | |
| Good evening. | 00:16:26 | |
| The reduction of. | 00:16:28 | |
| The five mile from 50 to 45. | 00:16:31 | |
| 45 mile rout. | 00:16:34 | |
| Is a request from HWC that they're working on what's called a? | 00:16:36 | |
| Monon South. | 00:16:41 | |
| Freedom Trail. | 00:16:43 | |
| This is a trail that they're planning to start on. | 00:16:45 | |
| Mount Everest Rd. close to Pillsbury. | 00:16:49 | |
| Go all the way up to the county line by Saint Joe Rd. | 00:16:52 | |
| However, there is a section there where the. | 00:16:57 | |
| The railroad get really close. | 00:17:00 | |
| To. | 00:17:03 | |
| Mainly between Pain Rd. | 00:17:06 | |
| And Chapel Lane. | 00:17:08 | |
| That the space between. | 00:17:11 | |
| The 2 is about 17 feet. | 00:17:13 | |
| And then on a 50 mile per hour indoor required. | 00:17:17 | |
| That the space between the. | 00:17:21 | |
| Trail and the road should be. | 00:17:23 | |
| 202425 feet. | 00:17:26 | |
| So there is nothing. There is no space for that, so they say. | 00:17:29 | |
| Is they proceed that they need to install rail. | 00:17:35 | |
| I don't think it would be any good. Carrera is not the best thing for that. | 00:17:38 | |
| So they. | 00:17:42 | |
| Thing that is. | 00:17:43 | |
| By decreasing that to 45 mile per hour. | 00:17:45 | |
| Then in dot only required about 15 feet. | 00:17:48 | |
| No 10 to 15. | 00:17:52 | |
| 10 feet. | 00:17:54 | |
| Minimum space between the two. | 00:17:56 | |
| And that's why the age of equal that they're requesting the 25. | 00:17:59 | |
| 25 mile per hour. | 00:18:02 | |
| And that's what the. | 00:18:04 | |
| The speed reduction on Grand Island Rd. is. | 00:18:07 | |
| Requested. | 00:18:10 | |
| So how long will it take to change signage out there? | 00:18:12 | |
| I don't think it'll take too much. There are like four or five signage already there that need to be just removed and replaced for | 00:18:16 | |
| a new one. | 00:18:19 | |
| OK. | 00:18:23 | |
| Any other questions for ratio? Yeah. | 00:18:26 | |
| Was there? There was some conversation years ago. | 00:18:28 | |
| When the Monon Trail. | 00:18:32 | |
| Issue came up that when the railroad tracks came out of there. | 00:18:34 | |
| The county was going to straighten up. | 00:18:38 | |
| The road there where all those crashes happen out there by Chapel Lane, Elthorne. | 00:18:42 | |
| Out in there, yeah. | 00:18:47 | |
| Do you know of any plans to straighten that out? | 00:18:49 | |
| It was only out during this study that was made. | 00:18:53 | |
| As far as my amendment, there hasn't been any progress on that. | 00:18:56 | |
| It is needed. | 00:18:59 | |
| It is knitted. | 00:19:01 | |
| Oh yeah, it's needed real bad. | 00:19:02 | |
| The trail itself, the the project. | 00:19:05 | |
| They planning to. | 00:19:07 | |
| Right before the. | 00:19:09 | |
| Line line cut to the left. They plan to set up some kind of. | 00:19:11 | |
| Pedestrian lights. | 00:19:15 | |
| So when the people coming from. | 00:19:16 | |
| The West part of the road. | 00:19:18 | |
| I'm going to the left. | 00:19:22 | |
| Then they're going to be lights and some other security. | 00:19:24 | |
| Install for that, but it'd be better to have Chaplin. | 00:19:27 | |
| Realign So who's funding the Monon Trail, do you know? | 00:19:31 | |
| I don't know. | 00:19:36 | |
| OK. | 00:19:38 | |
| Do you? | 00:19:39 | |
| Oh, I think there are multiple sources on that, but the city's kind of heading it up. | 00:19:42 | |
| It's a city project. This portion is the city project. | 00:19:51 | |
| OK. Thank you. | 00:20:00 | |
| You're welcome. | 00:20:02 | |
| Anything we can do to improve safety and help the city, I'm for it needs to be straightened out. | 00:20:03 | |
| This was just added kind of this afternoon. So is there anyone? | 00:20:09 | |
| Here that would from the public that would like to speak. | 00:20:14 | |
| To this before we vote on it. | 00:20:16 | |
| To this item specifically, yeah. | 00:20:18 | |
| Thank you, Joseph Moore, George Township. | 00:20:27 | |
| The only thing I was. | 00:20:30 | |
| Hope is the public gets that bit of a grace period too. | 00:20:31 | |
| And I I. | 00:20:34 | |
| I trust Stephen is. | 00:20:36 | |
| Is people not to use it as a? | 00:20:37 | |
| Speed track just to. | 00:20:39 | |
| The public should. If it's not, it should be publicized, not just the signs, because. | 00:20:41 | |
| A lot of people at Eastside Rd. | 00:20:45 | |
| Don't even look at the sign saying. | 00:20:47 | |
| So I'm hoping the drivers get a little bit of a grace period to adjust, that's all. | 00:20:49 | |
| Any further comment on that? | 00:20:55 | |
| You're going to pull your patrols off from tomorrow morning. | 00:20:58 | |
| The only thing I was. | 00:21:04 | |
| Was thinking as you're all talking is. | 00:21:06 | |
| I don't know off top my head and Frankie might know from experiences the speed limit. Just figure out change that one area. | 00:21:08 | |
| What about after and before? Is it? | 00:21:13 | |
| Going from 1 speed to another. | 00:21:15 | |
| So you just want to be consistent. If you're able to do the whole thing and keep it at 45, that's fine, but. | 00:21:17 | |
| I think you just need to take a look at that too as well, instead of just one section the whole. | 00:21:21 | |
| Because it's a straight line draw all the way to chicken house I think. | 00:21:26 | |
| I think that was addressed. People are flying. | 00:21:29 | |
| That was like a magically like looking charm. Slow down when they get to that one little area so. | 00:21:31 | |
| Just a thought you might. | 00:21:36 | |
| And it actually it does. | 00:21:38 | |
| Increase more towards the city is 35. This will be 45 and then once you get past the chicken house, 50 mph. | 00:21:39 | |
| At the Clark County line. | 00:21:47 | |
| Clark County, yeah. | 00:21:48 | |
| So they know when they get to Floyd County, they need to step on a break. | 00:21:50 | |
| Any further discussion? | 00:21:56 | |
| It's not a look for a motion to approve by unanimous consent. Yeah, I'll make the motion to approve Floyd County Ordinance 2025-25 | 00:21:58 | |
| establishing a speed limit on. | 00:22:02 | |
| Portion of Grantland Rd. with unanimous consent. | 00:22:07 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:22:10 | |
| All right, it's not a party unless the coroner's there, so. | 00:22:13 | |
| Coroner Matthew Tomlin. | 00:22:18 | |
| This is just bringing up my contract. I did. | 00:22:21 | |
| At the start of this year for Carmen Kerberg. | 00:22:24 | |
| It's just kind of renewing it with the 3% raise that was appropriated by the council. | 00:22:27 | |
| That's really the only shift in this contract that we have. | 00:22:32 | |
| Whole year so far. | 00:22:36 | |
| OK. Any questions for Mr. Tomlin? | 00:22:40 | |
| I'll look for a motion to approve, so moved. | 00:22:44 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:22:47 | |
| Thanks for being here, I. | 00:22:50 | |
| Apologize. If I had I wouldn't bumped you up earlier. | 00:22:51 | |
| But hopefully we didn't keep it too long tonight. | 00:22:55 | |
| All right, we'll look for approval of the Commissioners meeting minutes from November 4th. | 00:22:59 | |
| Motion approved. | 00:23:03 | |
| 2nd. | 00:23:04 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:23:05 | |
| And approval of payroll and claims. | 00:23:07 | |
| Make a motion to approve. | 00:23:11 | |
| Second, the motion is second. | 00:23:12 | |
| Any questions? | 00:23:14 | |
| All in favor, aye aye. | 00:23:17 | |
| Our next meeting will be Tuesday, December 2nd at 6:00 PM. We had a. | 00:23:20 | |
| Solid waste meeting earlier today. | 00:23:25 | |
| Any comment from any government officials? | 00:23:28 | |
| You might be the only one. | 00:23:31 | |
| Here incorrectly. | 00:23:33 | |
| Any comment from the public? | 00:23:36 | |
| I have a question. | 00:23:39 | |
| So your joint meeting, ma'am, Ma'am, if you. | 00:23:41 | |
| Yeah. | 00:23:45 | |
| So your, your your joint meeting for the 21st at 10 AM has been cancelled this Friday. | 00:23:57 | |
| Yes, yes, ma'am. All right. | 00:24:03 | |
| Thank you. Thank you for coming forward. | 00:24:04 | |
| Yes. | 00:24:07 | |
| Again, Joseph Moore, George San Township First, I want to. | 00:24:15 | |
| Thanks, Jason. | 00:24:18 | |
| Recently for reaching out, you know I hadn't been around for a while, so. | 00:24:20 | |
| Reaching out to see if I was doing OK. I appreciate that. | 00:24:23 | |
| You thought you're going to have an easy dress the year I'm here. The second thing is if remember Dale suggestion. | 00:24:26 | |
| About a wheelchair something pretty mobile challenge. | 00:24:34 | |
| I put out on next to where. | 00:24:38 | |
| And the Terry and Forest Bailey over by. | 00:24:40 | |
| Randolph and donated that and picked it. | 00:24:44 | |
| I had it cleaned up. | 00:24:47 | |
| And unless you guys have a problem. | 00:24:48 | |
| I was going to leave it down. | 00:24:51 | |
| In that ****** by the 1st floor elevator. | 00:24:52 | |
| Said if any, but in fact they all we opened me up in here. | 00:24:55 | |
| In that tonight. | 00:24:58 | |
| So if anybody besides me or me has a problem. | 00:24:59 | |
| Mobility they at least have. | 00:25:02 | |
| A way to get to the meetings. You're down the hall. | 00:25:04 | |
| If that's OK with you gentlemen, I'm glad. | 00:25:07 | |
| I was even going to have Pineview stenciled on it. | 00:25:09 | |
| But in light of the. | 00:25:11 | |
| And then I'm in here. | 00:25:13 | |
| I'm going to just leave it unmarked as it. | 00:25:15 | |
| OK. And it's it's apparently heavy. | 00:25:18 | |
| I would not recommend collapsing and it takes. | 00:25:20 | |
| 22 tins of mules to pull apart, so just leave it open where it stands there. | 00:25:23 | |
| I thank you. Great idea. Thank you. | 00:25:27 | |
| Any other public comment? | 00:25:31 | |
| Yes, Sir. | 00:25:34 | |

| This meeting order you will please rise and. | 00:00:02 | |
| One is in the plight of allegiance. | 00:00:06 | |
| I pledge allegiance to the flag. | 00:00:08 | |
| Of the United States of America. | 00:00:10 | |
| And to the Republic. | 00:00:12 | |
| Which stands one nation? | 00:00:14 | |
| Under God, indivisible with. | 00:00:16 | |
| Liberty and justice for all. | 00:00:18 | |
| All right, if you. | 00:00:23 | |
| Have a cell phone if you don't mind putting that on silent. | 00:00:26 | |
| And. | 00:00:30 | |
| Let's sit back and just have a. | 00:00:33 | |
| Quiet moment for individual prayer, meditation, reflection. | 00:00:34 | |
| Get ready for tonight's meeting. | 00:00:39 | |
| All right. Thank you and welcome. | 00:00:59 | |
| To our last scheduled meeting of November. | 00:01:02 | |
| We have a relatively short agenda and we'll have time for public comment afterwards. | 00:01:05 | |
| First, under new business, the sheriff Steve Bush with a contract for healthcare personnel and administration amendment. | 00:01:11 | |
| Thank you very much. Before you is an amendment to our original contract for medical contract in the jail. | 00:01:18 | |
| I'm gonna just explain it in two parts because there's two amendments. | 00:01:24 | |
| The first one is. | 00:01:26 | |
| For the last quarter of this year from September to December. | 00:01:28 | |
| In terms of reimbursement, the numbers changed our contract stay statically. | 00:01:31 | |
| Towards the end of the year. | 00:01:35 | |
| But they had it raised, so this is just showing an amendment that it stays static. | 00:01:37 | |
| The numbers reflect that. | 00:01:41 | |
| The second part of the amendment is. | 00:01:43 | |
| Starting in February of next year, the Baptist Health will no longer do blood draws. | 00:01:46 | |
| And so we had to kind of look at that. They get that in our contract and we talked about doing 24/7 nurses. So we had and agreed. | 00:01:51 | |
| In our budget for an extra 84 hours. | 00:01:57 | |
| That'll give us coverage at night. | 00:02:00 | |
| And so those two things are in this amendment, in this contract. | 00:02:03 | |
| So it's basically both of them. | 00:02:06 | |
| And that covers you through 2026 on the nursing edition. | 00:02:08 | |
| That'll start next year. | 00:02:11 | |
| OK in our new budget. | 00:02:13 | |
| Cause and effect OK. | 00:02:16 | |
| We sent the original contract over to Rick in the afternoon, but I don't think he had time to review it. So my request is. | 00:02:19 | |
| Indicated that potential will table it, but my request is it to approve it based off Rick's approval. | 00:02:24 | |
| Outside the meeting. | 00:02:30 | |
| Yeah, I don't think any of us have a problem with. | 00:02:32 | |
| What's being proposed? | 00:02:35 | |
| And. | 00:02:36 | |
| Sounds like time is more of the of the essence than what I had thought. So one of them is yes, right? | 00:02:38 | |
| Yeah, I'm OK with with that. If the other two commissioners are, it would be subject to. | 00:02:45 | |
| Review and approval rather than just review, but so we would still have the. | 00:02:51 | |
| Ability to. | 00:02:56 | |
| Not approve of it. | 00:02:58 | |
| You know, so I would suggest it an e-mail form. | 00:03:00 | |
| Looking over the main contract and send an e-mail to all of us. | 00:03:03 | |
| What's your what kind of deadline are you because? | 00:03:06 | |
| The one for the closeout of the year was to begin. | 00:03:09 | |
| Immediately, right? Yeah. So that's the time frame on that one. The other one can wait. | 00:03:12 | |
| Rather do them together, but that one's more immediate. | 00:03:16 | |
| If you prefer to separate it out and do the other one next meeting, which we'll have to wait two weeks. | 00:03:19 | |
| I don't like initially to do that. I'd like to get them both signed. | 00:03:23 | |
| Because that's they were wanting, but at the same time because we're stains, we have to do it in place. The 24/7 nursing needs to | 00:03:26 | |
| be in place. | 00:03:29 | |
| As they start to hire for that and get prepared and trained for that for the first, I know you've been contemplating this | 00:03:32 | |
| sometime. I think we discussed. | 00:03:35 | |
| Three or four months ago and I think you had some more conversations. When, when does the agreement? | 00:03:39 | |
| So. So Baptist has already pulled out of doing that. | 00:03:44 | |
| I'm sorry, Baptist has already pulled out of doing those for that at the end they've given us till February. As far as blood | 00:03:47 | |
| draws, that's just. | 00:03:50 | |
| That's a little bit more that the prosecutor's office once blood drops to a search warrant. | 00:03:53 | |
| And so that's so that's our. | 00:03:58 | |
| Since we're not going to do it, we'd rather have something, so that's why we added that into our contract. | 00:04:00 | |
| For our nursing staff. | 00:04:05 | |
| As far as outside agencies, you'll see in there the charge more, but I don't suspect. | 00:04:06 | |
| Most of them will come there to pay that. | 00:04:10 | |
| OK. | 00:04:12 | |
| Just an asking. | 00:04:14 | |
| If you. | 00:04:18 | |
| So. | 00:04:20 | |
| If Georgetown or. | 00:04:21 | |
| New Albany State Police. | 00:04:23 | |
| Conservation officers, whoever. | 00:04:26 | |
| They can't go to. | 00:04:29 | |
| Baptist either. | 00:04:30 | |
| Correct, That is correct. | 00:04:31 | |
| So if. | 00:04:33 | |
| They don't. | 00:04:34 | |
| Pay this fee. | 00:04:35 | |
| Or has there been a discussion with them or? | 00:04:38 | |
| There's been a discussion with the prosecutor. This is, as you know, by law. | 00:04:41 | |
| We don't have to. | 00:04:46 | |
| Get blood draws or anything like that, we have a refusal law. | 00:04:47 | |
| And you get refused with the prosecutor that's been going on before Chris Lang through Keith as you're. | 00:04:50 | |
| That's what they were required to do, the search warrants to get the blood draw. | 00:04:55 | |
| And do that so with Baptist Health, not. | 00:04:59 | |
| Doing anymore, that presents a little bit of a problem. | 00:05:01 | |
| And so I'm not sure what normally will do. | 00:05:03 | |
| You know, I think Chris, this potential might have a conversation with you or the council in terms of who would pay for that. Are | 00:05:06 | |
| we going to require each agency to pay for it? | 00:05:10 | |
| Outside of us are we going to pay for? | 00:05:13 | |
| Within our own contract. | 00:05:15 | |
| So that's I think those discussions are still this is just putting in there if we want to do this and go this direction. | 00:05:17 | |
| There's been different. | 00:05:22 | |
| Ways brought up before them. | 00:05:24 | |
| Train officers to do it. | 00:05:26 | |
| We don't want to do that. | 00:05:27 | |
| Have EMS do it. I don't think we want to do that either. So. | 00:05:29 | |
| This was at least amount to do. | 00:05:31 | |
| Invasive for everybody involved. | 00:05:33 | |
| But at least have it prepared to do it if this is the direction we want to go. | 00:05:35 | |
| If that makes sense. Is the money appropriated? | 00:05:39 | |
| OK, umm. | 00:05:43 | |
| I don't have a problem with the issue. I tried to do that. | 00:05:47 | |
| As well. | 00:05:49 | |
| I was going to use a paramedic on 3rd shift. | 00:05:50 | |
| However. | 00:05:53 | |
| What what I find was happening with a fee. | 00:05:56 | |
| And I'm just throwing it out there. I don't know what's going to happen. | 00:06:00 | |
| It's going to encourage officers not to draw that blood or not to make that arrest. | 00:06:04 | |
| And because their agency doesn't want to pay the bill and. | 00:06:10 | |
| That could be a public safety issue to me. | 00:06:14 | |
| So and I don't doesn't have anything to do with you. I'm just saying that I don't I don't disagree with, I agree with you. | 00:06:17 | |
| Yeah, I mean, I think there's more discussion needs to be had. | 00:06:23 | |
| At the time we were under the gun, we met a couple of times at the hospital. They were not going to give us that far, but we asked | 00:06:25 | |
| for it to give us more time. | 00:06:28 | |
| You know, and the reason the back story is a lot of people came over from Clark County, stopped doing it in their hospital | 00:06:31 | |
| originally and survey was coming to Floyd. | 00:06:34 | |
| And it brought the attention to him and they start looking to the legal team and all that, you know, the attorneys. | 00:06:38 | |
| How they are but. | 00:06:42 | |
| He would strike that from the record. My bad. You're pretty OK to me, Rick. | 00:06:45 | |
| You are right anyways. | 00:06:49 | |
| That's part I think there's I agree with. I think there's more discussion still needs to be had, but this is what we want to get | 00:06:51 | |
| in the contract to be prepared for. | 00:06:54 | |
| If that's the worst case scenario, we want to do that. | 00:06:57 | |
| All right. Well, I'll make a motion that we. | 00:07:01 | |
| Accept this agreement based. | 00:07:04 | |
| On review of. | 00:07:07 | |
| Rick Fox's approval. | 00:07:10 | |
| All right, I'll second. | 00:07:13 | |
| All right. | 00:07:15 | |
| Any other questions or discussion? I have one question, how how long do you anticipate that review taking? | 00:07:17 | |
| We can get it done in a couple days. | 00:07:26 | |
| By the week, we'll decide if you prefer. I would have. | 00:07:28 | |
| Rick, once he's done reviewing it, send Nemo to us. | 00:07:31 | |
| And then everybody can sign off on. Yeah, yeah, we'll have to have notification that it's. | 00:07:34 | |
| Meets approval, I mean I. | 00:07:38 | |
| Yeah, OK. I have a motion a second. All in favor, aye. | 00:07:39 | |
| Thank you very much. All right, thank you. Next step is Chief Operations Officer Nick Creevy. And we do have an addition on his | 00:07:45 | |
| agenda. We have items A/B and C, but. | 00:07:50 | |
| I will look for a motion to add by unanimous consent, an item D, which is Floyd County Ordinance 2025-25 establishing the speed | 00:07:55 | |
| limit. | 00:07:59 | |
| On a portion of Grant Line Rd. and even though it's under a. | 00:08:04 | |
| Nick's agenda will have a core ratio come up and speak to that too at that point. | 00:08:07 | |
| If it's added to the agenda. | 00:08:12 | |
| Second all in favor, aye aye. | 00:08:14 | |
| It's creamy, all right. The first item I have is a. | 00:08:18 | |
| AIA form contract for Kevco. | 00:08:22 | |
| For the renovations at the. | 00:08:26 | |
| Government Center downtown. | 00:08:29 | |
| They worry a little bitter. We've had our pre construction conferences. They are ready to go once we. | 00:08:32 | |
| Approve this contract. | 00:08:38 | |
| It is for the little bit amount. | 00:08:40 | |
| $455,345. | 00:08:43 | |
| To the ready to start tomorrow. | 00:08:48 | |
| My understanding is they're ready to get in there and start doing a little bit of the demo this week, yes. | 00:08:50 | |
| Good. Is that going to disturb you? | 00:08:55 | |
| And uh. | 00:08:59 | |
| OK, good. | 00:09:00 | |
| Make a motion to accept. | 00:09:00 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:09:02 | |
| All in favor. | 00:09:03 | |
| Aye. | 00:09:04 | |
| And Nick, I mentioned to Susanna, if you could e-mail that to Glenn Smith. | 00:09:06 | |
| For his review to make sure that we have all the insurance coverages that are in that. | 00:09:12 | |
| Document. | 00:09:18 | |
| The next item I have is FCR 2025-22. | 00:09:23 | |
| Knobs landing. | 00:09:30 | |
| Expanded TIF area resolution. | 00:09:31 | |
| This was a resolution. | 00:09:35 | |
| For expanding the TIF area. | 00:09:37 | |
| For the knobs landing development, which is the development? | 00:09:40 | |
| At Old Vincennes and Schreiber Rd. | 00:09:46 | |
| Two parcels of that developing are in the current Highlander Edwardsville. | 00:09:49 | |
| If two parcels are not the parcels that the current house. | 00:09:54 | |
| Garage or on? | 00:09:59 | |
| So to bring those into the TIF, we. | 00:10:01 | |
| Requested. | 00:10:04 | |
| Expansion of that area. This would be a new. | 00:10:06 | |
| TIF area. | 00:10:09 | |
| It would start talking just these two parcels. | 00:10:11 | |
| Apparently restart anything on the existing TIF. | 00:10:14 | |
| And the proceeds of that. | 00:10:17 | |
| It would be used for infrastructure improvements. | 00:10:20 | |
| At Hwy. 150 the Light. | 00:10:24 | |
| The break in the. | 00:10:27 | |
| Intersection there. | 00:10:29 | |
| As as well as potentially Shriver Rd. improve rates. | 00:10:31 | |
| And also that station preference. | 00:10:36 | |
| The Redevelopment Commission approved it resolution #2025-3, October 21st. | 00:10:42 | |
| Approved it as conforming with. | 00:10:52 | |
| The plans of County development on November 10th of 2025. | 00:10:54 | |
| OK. Any other further questions? | 00:11:01 | |
| Discussion comments. | 00:11:04 | |
| I don't have any questions outside of what I've already asked you, so thank you for taking time to address my questions. The only | 00:11:06 | |
| other comment that I'm going to make is, you know. | 00:11:10 | |
| We've had a lot of changes in our state legislation on the way that we're. | 00:11:15 | |
| Doing funding right now and. | 00:11:19 | |
| You know I. | 00:11:21 | |
| Very hesitant to. | 00:11:22 | |
| To add on to any TIF right now, so tonight I'll be voting no. | 00:11:23 | |
| We'll just add an additional note on the TIF. No, no bonding has occurred yet. | 00:11:29 | |
| On this we will have to. | 00:11:35 | |
| Pass the tip first, determine what project costs will be and then do that so the the impacts of SA-1. | 00:11:38 | |
| Will hopefully be better understood. | 00:11:45 | |
| At the time of bonding. | 00:11:48 | |
| This is just establishing the district. | 00:11:49 | |
| Mr. Loop, any comments? | 00:11:54 | |
| So does this need to be done now, then or? | 00:11:59 | |
| It has to be done before the bonding. | 00:12:02 | |
| Yes, it will have to be done before the bonding can occur. | 00:12:04 | |
| There will still be an additional public hearing for this that Redevelopment Commission is required to hold. | 00:12:10 | |
| Before it is finally approved. | 00:12:17 | |
| The reason why we got it started now is we wanted to get the base valuation of this year before any work commenced so that the. | 00:12:23 | |
| At most that we could capture would be captured if it was. | 00:12:34 | |
| I don't have any other. | 00:12:40 | |
| Comments. OK. | 00:12:41 | |
| I mean my only comment is I think this is a very focused. | 00:12:44 | |
| Used for TIFF and that's a good example of what was originally designed to do with regards to very specific infrastructure. | 00:12:48 | |
| Needs as compared to. | 00:12:55 | |
| What's some neighboring? | 00:12:58 | |
| Municipalities and counties have done with regards to. | 00:13:01 | |
| To to their. | 00:13:04 | |
| Wider interpretation of that so. | 00:13:05 | |
| I'm in favor of this. | 00:13:08 | |
| So I'll look for a motion. | 00:13:10 | |
| To approve. | 00:13:12 | |
| It's a. | 00:13:15 | |
| Is it 2025 or 20/25/22? I have like 3 in my hand here. | 00:13:18 | |
| Those are the previous ones from Redevelopment Commission. | 00:13:23 | |
| OK, just read off of. | 00:13:27 | |
| Right, OK. | 00:13:30 | |
| I'll make a motion for. | 00:13:32 | |
| Passage of Floyd County Resolution 2025. | 00:13:34 | |
| 22 non planned and expanded TIF area. | 00:13:38 | |
| All right. You OK with a second or? | 00:13:42 | |
| Would you rather not second? I'd rather not second. I'll second it so I have a motion and a second all in favor. | 00:13:45 | |
| Aye, opposed. | 00:13:51 | |
| Aye, OK. | 00:13:52 | |
| Thank you. | 00:13:54 | |
| The next item I have is a. | 00:13:56 | |
| Plant approval for Cottonwood Commons is plat #1587. | 00:13:59 | |
| We do have a development agreement and bonding in place. | 00:14:06 | |
| So this is the final approval there. | 00:14:11 | |
| 16 lots in the subdivision. | 00:14:14 | |
| Really. | 00:14:17 | |
| All right. Any questions? | 00:14:40 | |
| Pertaining to this matter from Nick. | 00:14:43 | |
| No questions for me. | 00:14:51 | |
| All right, other than signature, you need to know further, you need a motion to approve. | 00:14:54 | |
| I make a motion to approve. | 00:14:59 | |
| Cottonwood Commons, Plat, 1587. | 00:15:02 | |
| And I'll second. | 00:15:04 | |
| All in favor, aye aye. | 00:15:05 | |
| And then? | 00:15:09 | |
| The last item which Horatio will. | 00:15:11 | |
| Be able to answer any additional questions on is a. | 00:15:14 | |
| Ordinance or no, Excuse me, a resident. No, it is a ordinance. | 00:15:18 | |
| To lower the speed limit on Grant Line Rd. | 00:15:22 | |
| From Saint Joe's Road to Barack. | 00:15:27 | |
| From Saint Joe's Road to Barack Obama Way slash Security Parkway. | 00:15:30 | |
| It's currently 50 mph, bringing it down to 45 mph. There's a number of intersections along that. | 00:15:34 | |
| Stretch that our. | 00:15:43 | |
| Dangerous. | 00:15:45 | |
| We did a safety improvement plan last year with Kipta that identified that. We had a thorough first study a number of years before | 00:15:46 | |
| that also identified that. | 00:15:51 | |
| The Monon S pedestrian trail rail to trail is going on in there. | 00:15:57 | |
| So I think it makes good sense to bring that down. | 00:16:02 | |
| Just 55 mph. | 00:16:08 | |
| Horatio, do you have anything to? | 00:16:12 | |
| To add to that, I spoke with. | 00:16:14 | |
| Sheriff Bush about this earlier today and just to let him give him a heads up on it. And I don't think you had any comments you | 00:16:16 | |
| wish to make either, but please feel free to. | 00:16:20 | |
| Do so. | 00:16:24 | |
| Good evening. | 00:16:26 | |
| The reduction of. | 00:16:28 | |
| The five mile from 50 to 45. | 00:16:31 | |
| 45 mile rout. | 00:16:34 | |
| Is a request from HWC that they're working on what's called a? | 00:16:36 | |
| Monon South. | 00:16:41 | |
| Freedom Trail. | 00:16:43 | |
| This is a trail that they're planning to start on. | 00:16:45 | |
| Mount Everest Rd. close to Pillsbury. | 00:16:49 | |
| Go all the way up to the county line by Saint Joe Rd. | 00:16:52 | |
| However, there is a section there where the. | 00:16:57 | |
| The railroad get really close. | 00:17:00 | |
| To. | 00:17:03 | |
| Mainly between Pain Rd. | 00:17:06 | |
| And Chapel Lane. | 00:17:08 | |
| That the space between. | 00:17:11 | |
| The 2 is about 17 feet. | 00:17:13 | |
| And then on a 50 mile per hour indoor required. | 00:17:17 | |
| That the space between the. | 00:17:21 | |
| Trail and the road should be. | 00:17:23 | |
| 202425 feet. | 00:17:26 | |
| So there is nothing. There is no space for that, so they say. | 00:17:29 | |
| Is they proceed that they need to install rail. | 00:17:35 | |
| I don't think it would be any good. Carrera is not the best thing for that. | 00:17:38 | |
| So they. | 00:17:42 | |
| Thing that is. | 00:17:43 | |
| By decreasing that to 45 mile per hour. | 00:17:45 | |
| Then in dot only required about 15 feet. | 00:17:48 | |
| No 10 to 15. | 00:17:52 | |
| 10 feet. | 00:17:54 | |
| Minimum space between the two. | 00:17:56 | |
| And that's why the age of equal that they're requesting the 25. | 00:17:59 | |
| 25 mile per hour. | 00:18:02 | |
| And that's what the. | 00:18:04 | |
| The speed reduction on Grand Island Rd. is. | 00:18:07 | |
| Requested. | 00:18:10 | |
| So how long will it take to change signage out there? | 00:18:12 | |
| I don't think it'll take too much. There are like four or five signage already there that need to be just removed and replaced for | 00:18:16 | |
| a new one. | 00:18:19 | |
| OK. | 00:18:23 | |
| Any other questions for ratio? Yeah. | 00:18:26 | |
| Was there? There was some conversation years ago. | 00:18:28 | |
| When the Monon Trail. | 00:18:32 | |
| Issue came up that when the railroad tracks came out of there. | 00:18:34 | |
| The county was going to straighten up. | 00:18:38 | |
| The road there where all those crashes happen out there by Chapel Lane, Elthorne. | 00:18:42 | |
| Out in there, yeah. | 00:18:47 | |
| Do you know of any plans to straighten that out? | 00:18:49 | |
| It was only out during this study that was made. | 00:18:53 | |
| As far as my amendment, there hasn't been any progress on that. | 00:18:56 | |
| It is needed. | 00:18:59 | |
| It is knitted. | 00:19:01 | |
| Oh yeah, it's needed real bad. | 00:19:02 | |
| The trail itself, the the project. | 00:19:05 | |
| They planning to. | 00:19:07 | |
| Right before the. | 00:19:09 | |
| Line line cut to the left. They plan to set up some kind of. | 00:19:11 | |
| Pedestrian lights. | 00:19:15 | |
| So when the people coming from. | 00:19:16 | |
| The West part of the road. | 00:19:18 | |
| I'm going to the left. | 00:19:22 | |
| Then they're going to be lights and some other security. | 00:19:24 | |
| Install for that, but it'd be better to have Chaplin. | 00:19:27 | |
| Realign So who's funding the Monon Trail, do you know? | 00:19:31 | |
| I don't know. | 00:19:36 | |
| OK. | 00:19:38 | |
| Do you? | 00:19:39 | |
| Oh, I think there are multiple sources on that, but the city's kind of heading it up. | 00:19:42 | |
| It's a city project. This portion is the city project. | 00:19:51 | |
| OK. Thank you. | 00:20:00 | |
| You're welcome. | 00:20:02 | |
| Anything we can do to improve safety and help the city, I'm for it needs to be straightened out. | 00:20:03 | |
| This was just added kind of this afternoon. So is there anyone? | 00:20:09 | |
| Here that would from the public that would like to speak. | 00:20:14 | |
| To this before we vote on it. | 00:20:16 | |
| To this item specifically, yeah. | 00:20:18 | |
| Thank you, Joseph Moore, George Township. | 00:20:27 | |
| The only thing I was. | 00:20:30 | |
| Hope is the public gets that bit of a grace period too. | 00:20:31 | |
| And I I. | 00:20:34 | |
| I trust Stephen is. | 00:20:36 | |
| Is people not to use it as a? | 00:20:37 | |
| Speed track just to. | 00:20:39 | |
| The public should. If it's not, it should be publicized, not just the signs, because. | 00:20:41 | |
| A lot of people at Eastside Rd. | 00:20:45 | |
| Don't even look at the sign saying. | 00:20:47 | |
| So I'm hoping the drivers get a little bit of a grace period to adjust, that's all. | 00:20:49 | |
| Any further comment on that? | 00:20:55 | |
| You're going to pull your patrols off from tomorrow morning. | 00:20:58 | |
| The only thing I was. | 00:21:04 | |
| Was thinking as you're all talking is. | 00:21:06 | |
| I don't know off top my head and Frankie might know from experiences the speed limit. Just figure out change that one area. | 00:21:08 | |
| What about after and before? Is it? | 00:21:13 | |
| Going from 1 speed to another. | 00:21:15 | |
| So you just want to be consistent. If you're able to do the whole thing and keep it at 45, that's fine, but. | 00:21:17 | |
| I think you just need to take a look at that too as well, instead of just one section the whole. | 00:21:21 | |
| Because it's a straight line draw all the way to chicken house I think. | 00:21:26 | |
| I think that was addressed. People are flying. | 00:21:29 | |
| That was like a magically like looking charm. Slow down when they get to that one little area so. | 00:21:31 | |
| Just a thought you might. | 00:21:36 | |
| And it actually it does. | 00:21:38 | |
| Increase more towards the city is 35. This will be 45 and then once you get past the chicken house, 50 mph. | 00:21:39 | |
| At the Clark County line. | 00:21:47 | |
| Clark County, yeah. | 00:21:48 | |
| So they know when they get to Floyd County, they need to step on a break. | 00:21:50 | |
| Any further discussion? | 00:21:56 | |
| It's not a look for a motion to approve by unanimous consent. Yeah, I'll make the motion to approve Floyd County Ordinance 2025-25 | 00:21:58 | |
| establishing a speed limit on. | 00:22:02 | |
| Portion of Grantland Rd. with unanimous consent. | 00:22:07 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:22:10 | |
| All right, it's not a party unless the coroner's there, so. | 00:22:13 | |
| Coroner Matthew Tomlin. | 00:22:18 | |
| This is just bringing up my contract. I did. | 00:22:21 | |
| At the start of this year for Carmen Kerberg. | 00:22:24 | |
| It's just kind of renewing it with the 3% raise that was appropriated by the council. | 00:22:27 | |
| That's really the only shift in this contract that we have. | 00:22:32 | |
| Whole year so far. | 00:22:36 | |
| OK. Any questions for Mr. Tomlin? | 00:22:40 | |
| I'll look for a motion to approve, so moved. | 00:22:44 | |
| Second all in favor, aye. | 00:22:47 | |
| Thanks for being here, I. | 00:22:50 | |
| Apologize. If I had I wouldn't bumped you up earlier. | 00:22:51 | |
| But hopefully we didn't keep it too long tonight. | 00:22:55 | |
| All right, we'll look for approval of the Commissioners meeting minutes from November 4th. | 00:22:59 | |
| Motion approved. | 00:23:03 | |
| 2nd. | 00:23:04 | |
| All in favor, aye? | 00:23:05 | |
| And approval of payroll and claims. | 00:23:07 | |
| Make a motion to approve. | 00:23:11 | |
| Second, the motion is second. | 00:23:12 | |
| Any questions? | 00:23:14 | |
| All in favor, aye aye. | 00:23:17 | |
| Our next meeting will be Tuesday, December 2nd at 6:00 PM. We had a. | 00:23:20 | |
| Solid waste meeting earlier today. | 00:23:25 | |
| Any comment from any government officials? | 00:23:28 | |
| You might be the only one. | 00:23:31 | |
| Here incorrectly. | 00:23:33 | |
| Any comment from the public? | 00:23:36 | |
| I have a question. | 00:23:39 | |
| So your joint meeting, ma'am, Ma'am, if you. | 00:23:41 | |
| Yeah. | 00:23:45 | |
| So your, your your joint meeting for the 21st at 10 AM has been cancelled this Friday. | 00:23:57 | |
| Yes, yes, ma'am. All right. | 00:24:03 | |
| Thank you. Thank you for coming forward. | 00:24:04 | |
| Yes. | 00:24:07 | |
| Again, Joseph Moore, George San Township First, I want to. | 00:24:15 | |
| Thanks, Jason. | 00:24:18 | |
| Recently for reaching out, you know I hadn't been around for a while, so. | 00:24:20 | |
| Reaching out to see if I was doing OK. I appreciate that. | 00:24:23 | |
| You thought you're going to have an easy dress the year I'm here. The second thing is if remember Dale suggestion. | 00:24:26 | |
| About a wheelchair something pretty mobile challenge. | 00:24:34 | |
| I put out on next to where. | 00:24:38 | |
| And the Terry and Forest Bailey over by. | 00:24:40 | |
| Randolph and donated that and picked it. | 00:24:44 | |
| I had it cleaned up. | 00:24:47 | |
| And unless you guys have a problem. | 00:24:48 | |
| I was going to leave it down. | 00:24:51 | |
| In that ****** by the 1st floor elevator. | 00:24:52 | |
| Said if any, but in fact they all we opened me up in here. | 00:24:55 | |
| In that tonight. | 00:24:58 | |
| So if anybody besides me or me has a problem. | 00:24:59 | |
| Mobility they at least have. | 00:25:02 | |
| A way to get to the meetings. You're down the hall. | 00:25:04 | |
| If that's OK with you gentlemen, I'm glad. | 00:25:07 | |
| I was even going to have Pineview stenciled on it. | 00:25:09 | |
| But in light of the. | 00:25:11 | |
| And then I'm in here. | 00:25:13 | |
| I'm going to just leave it unmarked as it. | 00:25:15 | |
| OK. And it's it's apparently heavy. | 00:25:18 | |
| I would not recommend collapsing and it takes. | 00:25:20 | |
| 22 tins of mules to pull apart, so just leave it open where it stands there. | 00:25:23 | |
| I thank you. Great idea. Thank you. | 00:25:27 | |
| Any other public comment? | 00:25:31 | |
| Yes, Sir. | 00:25:34 | |
| Dale Mann, Georgetown. Jason, I want to thank you. | 00:25:41 | |
| We stand up against tiffs. | 00:25:44 | |
