[10. Raylan Smith; Discuss and consider approval of asset management software for an amount not to exceed $15,000.]
DISCUSS CONSIDER APPROVAL OF ASSET MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $15,000.UM, I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT DIFFERENT FACILITIES IN ASSET MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE.
I SPOKE WITH, UH, THE AUDITOR YESTERDAY TO CONFIRM THAT WE WILL STILL MAINTAIN STW AS FAR AS OUR INVENTORY AND MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE REPORTING FOR DEPRECIATION PURPOSES, ET CETERA.
UM, THIS NEW SOFTWARE WOULD ALLOW US, ESPECIALLY WITH HAVING THE NEW FACILITIES COME ONLINE.
UM, I WAS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO HOUSE OUR CAD FILES.
SO WE WILL BE ABLE TO UPLOAD CAD FILES TO LOCATE THE ELECTRICITY PLUMBING, AB THINGS LIKE THAT ON THE NEW BUILDINGS.
I WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO SCHEDULE THE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE.
WE'LL HAVE ALL OF THE WARRANTY INFORMATION, UPLOADED THE RECOMMENDED PARTS AND PIECES FOR EACH PART OF THE EQUIPMENT.
UM, SO THE GOAL WOULD BE THIS FISCAL YEAR, UM, TO BUILD THE PROGRAM AND TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE AS MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT EACH FACILITY IN THERE.
AND THEN MY HOPE WOULD BE TO ROLL OUT IN 2023, BASICALLY HANDING IT OVER TO THE MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT TO USE AS THEIR TICKETING SYSTEM.
UM, THAT WAY I'M ABLE TO MONITOR IT ON AN ASSET SIDE AND INVENTORY, BUT THEN AT THE END OF THE YEAR, WE'LL KNOW EXACTLY.
WE'LL HAVE A BREAKDOWN OF EXACTLY WHAT TOOK PLACE IN EACH FACILITY.
AND I DO CURRENTLY HAVE MANY WITHIN MY BUDGET, UM, THAT WE'VE SAVED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
SO I WOULD BE ABLE TO DO THIS THIS FISCAL YEAR.
SO, UM, IT WILL BE AN INCREASE TO MY BUDGETED REQUESTS FOR NEXT YEAR.
AND THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO BRING THAT FORWARD TO YOU.
THEY ALREADY HAVE A, THE WORK ORDER SYSTEM NOW, BUT IT'S, IT'S NOT CAPABLE OF DOING THE SAME THING.
UM, AND I WENT THROUGH THEIR SYSTEM FIRST TO SEE IF WE COULD INTEGRATE AND THERE'S A FEW THINGS THAT WE COULD ADD TO WHAT THEY CURRENTLY HAVE.
UM, BUT AS FAR AS LIKE THE GIS AND THE PROPERTY INFORMATION IN THE CAD FILES, IT WON'T UPLOAD QUESTIONS, JUDGE.
MA'AM I SUPPORT THIS BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ABOUT $77 MILLION IN ASSETS.
AND WE'RE FIXING A TRIPLE THAT AND THAT'S A LOT TO KEEP UP WITH.
SO THAT'S A, IT'S A GOOD PLAN.

IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND COMMISSIONER CAGE DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE OPPOSED.

WE MOVED IT DOWN THE ROAD A LITTLE BIT JUST TO GIVE US A LITTLE MORE TIME, BUT JERRY, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? ANY STATEMENTS? OKAY.
UM, IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, IS THERE A MOTION TO SET THAT PUBLIC HEARING DATE FOR AUGUST 24TH? OF COURSE THIS SETS IN MOTION, THE THINGS THAT ANN BELL HAS TO DO AS FAR AS PUBLISHING AND THAT SORT OF THING.

WE HAVE THAT MOTION OF COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SAY IT AGAIN A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER BARBER, DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.
[15. Judge Richards; Discuss the FY 21-22 Budget.]
THIS ONE'S GOT MY NAME ON IT ALSO, BUT I'M THINKING OF PUNT.THIS TO JERRY DOES DISCUSS THE FYI 2122 BUDGET.
I JUST WANTED TO TAKE AN OPPORTUNITY JUST TO UPDATE THE COURT.
UH, YOU KNOW, LAST WEEK WE, WE SUBMITTED THE PROPOSED BUDGET.
UH, WE CONTINUE DOWN THIS PATH OF MAKING ADJUSTMENTS THROUGH OPENGOV WE'VE.
AS OF THIS MORNING, BRANDY HAS UPDATED SOME PAYROLL, WHICH YOU HAVE A HANDOUT SHEET ON PAYROLL HERE.
UH, THAT'S R AS THE LATEST, UH, COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE COURT, WE DID SCHEDULE SOME EXTRA WORKSHOPS, UH, JUST TO CATCH US BACK UP.
SO WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE SHOP SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY OF THIS WEEK AND WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK TO GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO DIVE INTO ALL THE REST OF THE ACCOUNTS AND GO THROUGH THEM ACCOUNT BY ACCOUNT.
UH, YOU SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED AN EMAIL EARLIER TODAY FROM OPENGOV.
IT'S A REPORTING MECHANISM, SO THAT, AND I'VE GOT IT.
[00:20:01]
IT'S TITLED WORKING BUDGET.SO EVERYTHING IS IN THAT REPORT TOMORROW.
I'D LIKE TO SPEND SOME TIME REALLY SHOWING THE COURT HOW TO NAVIGATE THAT REPORT AND HOW IT, HOW IT'S GOING TO UPDATE LIVE AS WE GO THROUGH IT.
AND THEN WE JUST HAVE A FEW OPEN SWITCHES TO GO THROUGH AND, UH, SOME ENROLLED IN BRIDGE.
WE NEED TO GO THROUGH RODEN BRIDGE THIS, MAKE SURE WE HAVE, HAVE THAT SETTLED WHERE THE, WHERE THE COMMISSIONERS WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT, A FEW MORE ADJUSTMENTS AND A FEW MORE QUESTIONS REGARDING PAYROLL.
I HAVE A MEETING THIS AFTERNOON WITH BRANDY TO GO OVER A COUPLE OF AREAS TO MAKE SURE WE'VE GOT THEM CLEAR AND THEN JUST MOVE FORWARD.
UH, WE DO HAVE A COUPLE OF FOLKS, I BELIEVE THEY'RE WANTING TO ADDRESS THE COURT.
UM, SO THAT WILL, THAT'LL COME IN A BUNCH OF WORKSHOPS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS WELL.
AND THEN ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO, I JUST THOUGHT WE NEEDED A LITTLE MORE OPPORTUNITY THERE.
UH, AS OF TODAY, UH, IF YOU REMEMBER THE, UH, THE PROPOSED BUDGET WE HAD, UH, WE HAD A FINE BALANCE OF ABOUT 2.4 MILLION.
THAT'S BEEN REDUCED NOW TO RIGHT AT 2 MILLION, JUST A LITTLE BIT OVER 2 MILLION.
ONCE WE MADE THOSE OTHER, THOSE OTHER PAYROLL ADJUSTMENTS FROM THE COURTS.
THAT'S WHERE WE SAID AS OF TODAY, THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAVE JUDGE.
SO TH THIS ITEM IS REALLY JUST TALK ABOUT WHAT WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING THIS WEEK AT THE BUDGET WORKSHOPS.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS RELEVANT TO THAT? OKAY.
[16. Judge Richards; Discuss/Consider accepting the Kaufman County Community Supervision and Corrections Department proposed FY22 and FY23 budget.]
16, DISCUSS, CONSIDER ACCEPTING THE KAUFMAN COUNTY COMMUNITY SUPERVISION AND CORRECTIONS DEPARTMENT PROPOSED FOR 22 AND 23 BUDGET.UH, JERRY, I'M GOING TO, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY, BUT I'LL LET YOU JUST SAY INCREASE IT.
YEAH, THIS IS, THIS IS REALLY JUST SOMETHING THAT HAS TO COME IN FRONT OF THE COURT.
WE'VE UPDATED IN, IN, IN, IN AN OPENGOV.
UM, RANDY, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, IT'S ALL, ALL OF ADULT PROBATION IS BALANCED.
AND SO THIS IS, THIS IS ALL STATE FUNDED.
AND SO, BUT THEY DO HAVE TO PRESENT THEIR BUDGET TO THE COURT.
SO THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR, IN YOUR PACKETS WOULD BE THEIR PROPOSED BUDGET.
UH, THEN WE, THEN WE, CONSEQUENTLY WE SUBSEQUENTLY GO INTO, INTO OUR BUDGET SYSTEM AND WE BALANCE THOSE NUMBERS AND THEN THE AUDITOR'S OFFICE TRACKS AND MAINTAINS THAT BUDGET FOR THE YEAR, CARRYING THAT I CAPTURE ALL OF THAT.
IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS ON ITEM 16, IS THERE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE KAUFMAN COUNTY COMMUNITY SUPERVISION AND CORRECTIONS DEPARTMENT PROPOSED 22, 23 BUDGET? SO MOVE, WE HAVE THAT MOTION FROM COMMISSIONER CATES.
IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.
[17. Judge Richards; Discuss/Consider setting bond amount for the Elections Administrator.]
LET ME GET MY SHIT OUT OF HERE.ITEM 17, DISCUSS, CONSIDER SETTING BOND AMOUNT FOR THE ELECTIONS ADMINISTRATOR.
UM, I DON'T HAVE THAT DOCUMENT.
ANYBODY HAVE THAT NUMBER? WE DIDN'T GET ANY SUPPORTING STUFF.
LET'S UH, CAN WE JUST PASS THAT ITEM, UH, TABLE? UH, I MOVED THAT WE, UH, THAT WE TABLE ITEM 17.
IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND FROM WHO WAS AT DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.
NO, THAT MOTION CARRIES AUTOMATE TEAM DISCUSS,
[18. Judge Richards; Discuss/Consider/Approve determination of Salary Grievance Committee.]
CONSIDER APPROVE AND APPROVE THE DETERMINATION OF SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE.UH, KAREN, YOU WANT TO JUST CROSS THE T'S AND DOT THE I'S FOR US.
SO BASICALLY WHAT, UM, DOCUMENT HERE, BASICALLY WHAT THE COURT NEEDS TO DECIDE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE.
SO AT THE, UM, THE GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE CAN BE MADE UP OF EITHER NINE PUBLIC MEMBERS, OR IT CAN BE MADE UP OF TWO PUBLIC MEMBERS IN CERTAIN COUNTY OFFICERS.
AND LET ME READ OFF THOSE COUNTY OFFICERS.
IT WOULD BE THE COUNTY JUDGE, THE SHERIFF, THE COUNTY TAX ASSESSOR COLLECTOR, THE COUNTY TREASURER, THE COUNTY CLERK, THE DISTRICT CLERK, THE COUNTY ATTORNEY OR CRIMINAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY, AND TWO PUBLIC MEMBERS OR THE COMMITTEE CAN BE THE COUNTY JUDGE AND NINE PUBLIC MEMBERS.
SO THE COURT NEEDS TO DECIDE WHAT THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE SHOULD BE MADE UP OF EITHER THE FIRST CHOICE I READ WITH THE COUNTY OFFICIALS AND TWO PUBLIC MEMBERS OR THE NINE PUBLIC MEMBERS AND THOSE NON-PUBLIC.
BUT WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT ON NEXT TIME.
[00:25:01]
I'LL GO AHEAD.IF YOU'D LIKE FROM ME TO THE NINE PUBLIC MEMBERS AND THE TWO PUBLIC MEMBERS ARE BASICALLY WHAT THE PROCESS IS.
ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE SERVED ON A GRAND JURY FOR THE PAST YEAR, THEIR NAME IS WRITTEN ON A PIECE OF PAPER OR PUT IN A CONTAINER.
AND THEN THE ACCOUNT SHAKEN UP KIND OF LIKE BINGO.
THE COUNTY JUDGE DRAWS OUT THE PIECES OF PAPER.
THOSE NAMES ARE RED AND WE DRAW OUT SO MANY GRAND JURY MEMBERS AND, UM, SO MANY ALTERNATIVES.
UM, THIS PAST YEAR DUE TO COLOR, WE HAD A VERY SMALL NUMBER OF GRAND JURY MEMBERS.
UM, SO THOSE PEOPLE BECOME THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE, WHETHER YOU'RE USING NINE OR TWO.
AND THEN THEY ACCEPT THAT CONFIRMATION AND THE HEARING SHOULD TAKE PLACE WITHIN 10 DAYS AFTER THE PUBLIC MEMBERS ARE DETERMINED, WHETHER IT'S THE TWO PUBLIC MEMBERS FROM THE FIRST OPTION OR WHETHER IT'S NINE PUBLIC MEMBERS.
SO THE FIRST THING FOR THE COURT TO DO IS TO DETERMINE, I BELIEVE ON THE AGENDA ITEM IS DETERMINE HOW YOU WANT THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE TO BE MADE UP.
SO I TAKE IT TO, WE JUST SETTING A GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE IN CASE SOMEBODY DOES OR FILED A GRIEVANCE OR A WEEK, THE DEADLINE HAS PASSED, BUT WE DO HAVE ONE.
UH, SO I DIDN'T, IT WASN'T REFLECTED ANYWHERE.
SO, UM, IT WAS ON AN EMAIL THAT IT WAS NOW THE DEADLINE GO FAST.
THE DEADLINE, THE SALARY GRIEVANCE FOR AN ELECTED OFFICIAL TO FILE A SALARY.
GRIEVANCE IS FIVE DAYS AFTER THEY HAVE PUBLISHED NOTICE OF WHAT THEIR SALARY IS.
RIGHT? SO WHAT'S BEFORE US WOULD BE, UH, WITH WHETHER THE COURT WANTS TO USE THE ELECTED OFFICIAL APPROACH WITH, TO PUBLIC OR WHETHER WE WANT TO USE THE NINE, UH, GRAND JURY MEMBERS.
THAT THE WAY THAT WORKS IS I'M, I'M THE CHAIRMAN OF THAT COMMITTEE, BUT I'M NOT A VOTING MEMBER.
SO, AND I WAS NOT PART OF THE DELIBERATIONS LAST TIME.
SO I'D JUST LIKE TO JUST, COULD YOU JUST REMIND ME WHAT'S THE PROCESS ONCE THE COMMITTEE IS ESTABLISHED, IS THAT A PUBLIC HEARING? IT'S NOT A, IT'S NOT A PUBLIC HEARING ONCE THAT COMMITTEE IS ESTABLISHED, WHAT TAKES PLACE IS, UM, IS THAT COMMITTEE MEETS AND THEY HEAR THE GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE OF THE ELECTED OFFICIAL, THAT'S FILED THE GRIEVANCE.
AND THEN THAT COMMITTEE DECIDES ON WHETHER THEY'RE GOING TO, UM, WHETHER THEY'RE GOING TO ACCEPT, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY ACCEPT THE, UM, THE SALARY GRIEVANCE CHANGE THAT'S WANTED.
AND LET ME SORT OF BACK UP A LITTLE BIT, WHENEVER A SALARY GRIEVANCES FILED, UM, THE SALARY GRIEVANCE HAS TO STATE WHAT THE ELECTED OFFICIAL WOULD LIKE TO HAPPEN, WHETHER IT'S A CERTAIN AMOUNT OR, OR WHAT THAT ELECTED OFFICIAL WOULD LIKE TO HAPPEN.
AND SO THEN WHEN, UM, WHEN THE, UM, PUBLIC, WHEN THE GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE MEETS AND THEY DON'T MEET LIKE PUBLICLY AS, AS IN, YOU KNOW, LIKE HERE WHERE WE ARE PUBLIC, THEY MEET AND THEY, UM, THEY LISTEN, UM, I'M SORRY.
THEY MEET AND THEY, UM, AND LET ME JUST BACK UP A COUPLE OF SECONDS, BASICALLY, UM, THE COMMITTEE DOES HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING.
SO THAT HEARING THAT, THAT, THAT THE MEMBERS HOLD IS A PUBLIC HEARING.
AND SO, UM, AFTER THE HEARING, IF SIX OR MORE MEMBERS VOTE TO RECOMMEND AN INCREASE IN THE OFFICER'S SALARY OR PERSONAL EXPENSES, THE COMMITTEE SHALL SUBMIT ITS RECOMMENDATION TO THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT IN WRITING IF SIX TO EIGHT MEMBERS VOTE TO RECOMMEND THE INCREASE, THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT SHALL CONSIDER THE RECOMMENDATION AT ITS NEXT MEETING.
SO THERE'S NO NINE PEOPLE IN THE COMMITTEE.
SO AS LONG AS SIX TO EIGHT ARE RECOMMENDING AN INCREASE, THEN THE COMMISSIONERS COURT SHALL CONSIDER THE RECOMMENDATION.
BUT IF NINE MEMBERS IT'S AN, IF IT'S UNANIMOUS IN THAT PUBLIC HEARING, IF NINE MEMBERS VOTE TO RECOMMEND THE INCREASE AND SIGN THE RECOMMENDATION, THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT SHALL INCLUDE THE INCREASE IN THE BUDGET BEFORE THE BUDGET IS FILED AND THE INCREASE TAKES EFFECT.
SO BASICALLY FOR THE INCREASE TO AUTOMATICALLY TAKE EFFECT, IT HAS TO BE UNANIMOUS WITH ALL NINE MEMBERS.
AND IF IT'S LESS THAN NINE MEMBERS, IT'S A REMIT RECOMMENDATION TO THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT.
AND I'M SORRY, BUT THAT HEARING IS PUBLIC.
SO IT WOULD BE NOTIFIED NOTICE JUST LIKE A REGULAR, UM, PUBLIC MEETING OF THE COUNTY.
AND, AND WHAT'S CONSIDERED IN THAT, IN OTHER WORDS, UH, THE GRIEVANT CAN APPEAR, OR THEY CAN APPEAR JUST IN WRITING, IS THAT CORRECT? THE GRIEVANCE, THE GRIEVANCE CAN APPEAR.
[00:30:01]
AND I THINK IN TIMES PAST THE ELECTED OFFICIAL THAT'S FILED, THE GRIEVANCE HAS APPEARED, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE TO BECAUSE WE HAVE THE GRIEVANCE IN WRITING.SO IT COULD BE SUBMITTED AS JUST IN WRITING OR THE GRIEVANCE COULD APPEAR.
AND IS THERE A, IS THERE A MECHANISM WHERE, UH, THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT BASED EXPLAINS THEIR INITIAL DECISIONS BASED ON SALARY POSTINGS? YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT SINCE IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING THAT, UM, ANY COMMISSIONER COULD DEFINITELY APPEAR AT THAT HEARING AND SPEAK, I DON'T KNOW THAT THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT APPEARS AS A WHOLE AT THE COMMITTEE MEETING, BUT I THINK THAT IT'S, YOU KNOW, WHAT A PUBLIC HEARING BASICALLY IT'S OPEN FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS OR FOR, YOU KNOW, ANYONE TO, TO SUPPORT OR NOT SUPPORT THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS.
GRIEVANCE JUST SEEMED PRUDENT TO ME THAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR ONE SIDE OF THE STORY OUT OF HERE, THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORY IN ORDER TO MAKE A GOOD DECISION AS TO WHY THE SALARIES WERE IT'S, IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING.
AND TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST, EVERY DETAIL LIKE THAT IS NOT SET FORTH IN THE STATUTE.
BUT I THINK THAT UNDER THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES YOU WOULD FOLLOW THE, UM, THE PRECEDENT IN ANY PUBLIC HEARING AND IN ANY PUBLIC HEARING, BASICALLY YOU INVITE WHOEVER SIGNS UP THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK, YOU KNOW, YAY OR NAY TO SPEAK ON, ON THAT BEHALF.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS I'D LIKE TO HAVE THE EMAIL THAT YOU SAID YOU GOT THAT THIS WAS SO, I MEAN, CAUSE THAT IT SAYS NO I SAID WAS STAY ANONYMOUS.
I DON'T THINK IT'S ANONYMOUS BECAUSE COPY OF THE LETTER WAS ATTACHED.
I CAN'T FIND ANY MONEY EMAIL FROM YOU.
NO, NOT FOR ME, BUT ANYWAY, YOU'LL GET IT TO ME.
I THINK THAT THE LETTER WAS ATTACHED TO AN EMAIL WHEN THE QUESTION CAME ABOUT, ABOUT, UM, HOW DO WE FORM THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE? I BELIEVE THE EMAIL THAT I RECEIVED, IT WAS ATTACHED TO THAT LETTER.
I THINK IT DID COME FROM ANNABEL.
W YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR, I HAVE ONE QUESTION, KAREN, UM, UM, MY I'M UNDERSTANDING THIS, THERE ARE THREE OTHER LEGGED OFFICIALS IN THE SAME POSITION.
IF THIS ONE PERSON FALLS THE GRIEVANCE AND THEY WIN, WOULD THAT APPLY TO ALL OF THEM OR JUST THAT ONE PERSON, IT WOULD JUST APPLY TO THE ONE PERSON.
HOWEVER, YOU KNOW, THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT CAN CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE STILL IN THE BUDGET WORKSHOP ARENA, SO THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT COULD APPLY IT TO ONE.
THEY COULD APPLY IT TO ALL FOUR.
I MEAN, THAT WOULD BE THE DECISION OF THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT THROUGH THE BUDGET PROCESS.
BUT AS FAR AS IF THERE WAS A UNANIMOUS, YOU KNOW, NINE PEOPLE SAYING THAT THIS ELECTED OFFICIALS GRIEVANCE SHOULD BE, YOU KNOW, GRANTED THEN THE COURT WOULD HAVE NO CHOICE, BUT TO GRANT THAT LED THAT SPECIFIC ELECTED OFFICIAL AND WHETHER YOU WANT TO APPLY IT TO THE THREE OTHER COMPARABLE POSITIONS IN THE COUNTY WOULD REALLY BE UP TO THE OPTION OF THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT, BUT NOT MANDATORY.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH, KAREN.
UH, SO WHAT, SO, WHAT WE NEED TO DO NOW IS DETERMINED BY MOTION, WHICH OF THE TWO METHODS WE WANT TO USE.
SO LOOKING FOR EMOTION AS TO HOW WE WILL WANT TO DO THIS.
WELL, JUDGE, I'D JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT, UH, I THINK WE'VE DEMONSTRATED IT THROUGH THIS BUDGET PROCESS AND THROUGH ALL THE ONES THAT I'VE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH UP TO DATE THAT WE CERTAINLY DO ALWAYS CONSIDER WHAT'S IN THE BEST INTEREST FOR OUR EMPLOYEES.
UH, AND, UH, W WE, I THINK WE ALL RECOGNIZE THE, THE PROFESSIONALISM AND THE CONTRIBUTIONS THAT EVERY ONE OF THESE COUNTY EMPLOYEES MAKES.
UH, AND OF COURSE, WE END UP HAVING TO BALANCE THAT WITH, WITH WHAT'S AVAILABLE TO SPEND.
AND WHILE WE DO HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES TO OUR EMPLOYEES, WE ALSO HAVE A HUGE RESPONSIBILITY TO THE 170 TO 90,000 TAXPAYERS THAT ARE IN THIS COUNTY.
UH, AND I GET A LOT OF INQUIRIES FROM MY CONSTITUENTS, UH, ABOUT EXPENDITURES AND, AND WHAT HAVE YOU.
SO, UH, I I'M IN FAVOR OF TRYING TO, UH, EXPAND IF YOU WILL, THE IMPACT THAT THE CITIZENS THEMSELVES CAN HAVE IN COUNTY GOVERNMENT.
SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE BE COMPRISED OF NINE CITIZENS DRAWN FROM THE GRAND JURY POOL.
THAT'S THE EMOTION FROM COMMISSIONER CAGE TO, TO DRAW FROM THE, THE ALL NINE FROM THE, UH, CITIZEN POOL.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'M GOING TO THE SECOND THING
[00:35:01]
SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS, DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE.THOSE OPPOSED? NO, THAT MOTION CARRIES ITEM 18, DISCUSS, CONSIDER APPROVED DETERMINATION OF SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE.
CONDUCT THE PROCESS 19 CONDUCT
[19. Judge Richards; Conduct process to determine public members of the Salary Grievance Committee - the number to be based on the Court's determination of the Salary Grievance Committee,]
PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE PUBLIC MEMBERS OF THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE, THE NUMBER TO BE BASED ON THE COURT'S DETERMINATION OF THE SALARY GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE.I THINK WE'VE ALREADY PRETTY WELL COVERED THAT THIS IS NOT A CONSIDERATION ITEM.
UH, WE WILL BE DOING THAT AT OUR NEXT COMMISSIONER COURT MEETING.
UM, THE COUNTY CLERK HAS ALREADY DONE HER PART.
SHE HAS THE MAINS ALREADY READY TO BE DRAWN.
AND AS WE DID BEFORE, WE'LL DRAW, WE HAVE TO HAVE NINE MEMBERS, BUT WE'LL DRAW THE SUBS.
WE MAY DRAW THE WHOLE POOL IN ORDER BECAUSE, UH, IT, AS IT DID LAST TIME, IT WILL FALL ON ANNABEL TO TRY TO GET THOSE FOLKS LINED UP, TO BE AT THE HEARING.
AND WE HAVE TO HAVE NINE PEOPLE THERE.
SO JUDGE COULD I SUGGEST JUST FOR CALENDAR PURPOSES, THAT IT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO THE PROCESS.
IF WE DREW THE NAMES TODAY, IF WE HAVE THEM AVAILABLE, IT'D BE MORE BENEFICIAL TO STICK TO OUR CALENDARS.
WE HAVE TO PUT OUT NOTICE FOR A PUBLIC HEARING, AND YOU'VE GOT TO PROVIDE A TIMELINE AND I WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE THIS MOVE DOWN FOR, SO NOT A PROBLEM.
IT'D BE EASIER JUST TO DO IT TODAY, IF YOU COULD.
I'M FIXING TO ASK THE SAME THING.
