Feb 14, 2023 Commissioners Court

ROUTINE CORRESPONDENCE NEXT WEEK, REMEMBER, THERE'LL BE NO COMMISSIONER'S COURT BECAUSE WE WILL BE IN SCHOOL.

[1. ROUTINE CORRESPONDENCE.]

AND COMMISSIONER BARBARA HAD SOMETHING.

YEAH, I JUST GOT SOMETHING REAL QUICK.

UH, YOU KNOW, LAST WEEK, UH, WE, UH, WENT TO AUSTIN FOR KAUFMAN COUNTY DAY.

HAD A GREAT TURNOUT.

BY THE WAY.

APPRECIATE EVERYBODY THAT CAME OUT.

UH, WHILE WE WERE THERE, A COUPLE OF US HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE, UH, GIFT SHOP THERE, AND WE'D BEEN TALKING FOR QUITE SOME TIME ABOUT HOW EVERY JUDGE SHOULD HAVE A GAVEL.

AND SO THE GUYS GOT TOGETHER AND WE GOT YOU ONE.

AND WE JUST WANTED TO PRESENT THAT TO YOU THIS MORNING.

HEY.

THERE YOU GO.

I WANT YOU, I WANT YOU TO KNOW WE WENT THROUGH A BIG STACK.

YES, WE DID.

, THAT ONE'S SPECIAL OAK.

IT'S REALLY, UH, YOU KNOW, GLUED WELL.

WELL, IT'S THIS MADE IN CHINA ON, NO, IT WAS DROPPED OUT.

IT REALLY WAS DROPPED OUT IN BLOOM.

WE JUST BOUGHT IT.

IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS.

THERE YOU GO, .

OKAY, WELL, LET'S MOVE ON TO MORE SERIOUS BUSINESS.

[2. CONSENT AGENDA]

ON THE CONSENT AGENDA, WE HAVE SEVERAL ITEMS ON THERE.

WE DO HAVE ONE FOR, UH, UH, DISCUSSION AND PROVEN IS B AND THAT WOULD BE COMMISSIONER MOORE.

MAKE ANY COMMENTS? YES, SIR.

I'D LIKE TO MOVE THAT FROM THE CONSENTING TO, YOU KNOW, DISCUSSION AND ACTION.

SO WE'LL MOVE THAT DOWN.

SO ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING ELSE ON THE CONSENT AGENDA, ANY OF THE ITEMS? IF NOT, I NEED A MOTION TO ACCEPT THOSE.

I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION FOR YOU.

MR. PHILLIPS MAKES THE MOTION.

NEED A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.

MR. BARBER MAKES SECOND.

WE'LL MOVE, UH, B DOWN TO NEXT, RIGHT BEFORE THREE, WE'LL CALL IT.

THEN

[2B. Approve/Confirm placing County Road 4078 on the Precinct 4 Road Report.]

YEP.

TWO B THEN.

, UH, DISCUSS, UH, AFFIRM AND COM.

UH, PLACING KEN ROAD 40 78 ON THE PRECINCT FOUR ROAD REPORT.

COMMISSIONER MOORE? YES, SIR.

UH, THIS IS GOING TO BE A COUNTY ROAD 40 78.

THAT, UH, IT'S GONNA BE DOWN IN THE SCURRY AREA, THE COTTONWOOD AREA.

AND BASICALLY WHAT IT IS, IS THIS ROAD, UH, THIS ROAD WAS A COUNTY ROAD THAT WAS ANNEXED ORIGINALLY BY THE CITY OF COTTONWOOD, I BELIEVE IN THE LATE EIGHTIES, EARLY 2000 OR, UH, RIGHT, RIGHT BEFORE THE, I THINK IT WAS 88.

I'M NOT SURE.

I HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT.

BUT ANYWAY, UH, THEY ANNEXED IT.

THE CITIZENS ON THAT ROAD IN 2004 WANTED TO BE D ANNEXED FROM THE CITY.

SO THEY DID THE PAPERWORK AND THE CITY APPROVED TO D ANNEX THEM BECAUSE THE STREET WANTED TO BE REMOVED.

UH, AND AT THAT POINT, UH, MR. DELLER, UH, I WANTED TO CONFIRM THAT THE CI THE ROAD WAS TAKEN BACK INTO THE COUNTY.

SO I TALKED TO COMMISSIONER DELK WHO HAD IT ON HIS 2006 ROAD REPORT.

IT'S BEEN ON THE ROAD REPORT SINCE THEN THROUGH THE, UH, COMMISSIONER MANNING, UH, TO INCLUDE YOU JUDGE, WHEN YOU COMMISSIONER IT WAS ON YOUR ROAD REPORTS.

AND THEN IN, UH, 2020, I BELIEVE 21, IT WAS REMOVED FROM THE ROAD REPORT.

UH, THE FOLKS THAT LIVE ON THAT ROAD HAVE CONTACTED ME, SAID, HEY, WE'RE IN LIMBO.

NOBODY'S CLAIMING US.

WE CAN'T GET HELP.

ONE OF THE CITIZENS THAT LIVE ON THAT ROAD, UH, HAS ALREADY SPENT HIS OWN PERSONAL PROCEEDS TRYING TO MAKE IT PASSABLE FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE ON THAT ROAD.

SO ANYWAY, I FIGURED IT'D BE RIGHT.

THEN I CALLED COMMISSIONER DELLER AND I SPOKE WITH HIM ON THE EIGHTH, AND HE SAID YES, IN 2000.

UH, HE DIDN'T KNOW THE, UH, HE DIDN'T HAVE THE PAPERWORK, BUT HE TOLD ME HE DID TAKE THAT ROAD IN, UH, AND BACK INTO THE COUNTY INVENTORY.

THAT'S WHY HE PUT IT ON THE 2006 ROAD REPORT.

AND HE ALSO SENT ME, UH, I HAVE A WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION FROM, UH, MR. DELLER CONFIRMING AND VERIFYING THAT HE DID TAKE THAT ROAD BACK IN AND IT WAS PRICED ON THE 2006

[00:05:01]

ROAD REPORT.

UH, SO WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO IS MAKE IT RIGHT FOR THE CITIZENS ON THAT ROAD TO PUT THEM BACK ON THE ROAD REPORT, UH, THAT THEY WERE ON UP TO 20 AND 21.

SO, OKAY.

AND YOU'VE, UH, CONSULTED LEGAL ON THIS? YES.

I SPOKE WITH, UH, MONIQUE WITH THE VENABLE SERVICES, THE MAPPING SHE, UH, WAS AN AGREEANCE WITH, AND ALSO I SPOKE TO THE, THE DA'S OFFICE, KAREN, ABOUT IT, AND SHE AGREED AS WELL.

SO, UH, HERE I AM.

I'M, I TRY TO ASK THAT THE, YOU KNOW, COURT PUT IT BACK ON THE ROAD REPORT, SO, OKAY.

ANY OTHER FURTHER DISCUSSION? NO.

AND I NEED, UH, A MOTION.

I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION TO PUT IT BACK ON TO THE ROAD REPORT FOR PRECINCT FOUR.

HAVE COMMISSIONER MOORE RECOMMENDS WE PUT IT BACK ON.

NEED A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.

MR. PHILLIPS SECOND.

ALAN DONAN TO UPDATE AND INTRODUCE A VOLUNTEER NORTH TEXAS PUBLIC SAFETY DIVERS TEAM.

[3. Alan Donan; To update and introduce the volunteer North Texas Public Safety Divers Team.]

I REPRESENT, I'M MEMBER OF, UH, NORTH TEXAS PUBLIC SAFETY DIVERS.

WE ARE A NON, WE ARE STRICTLY A VOLUNTEER AGENCY.

WE ARE NOT A NONPROFIT.

WE ARE NOT A CORPORATION.

WE ORIGINALLY WERE FORMED AS PART OF THE NORTH TEXAS CERT.

SO ALL OF OUR MEMBERS ARE CERT QUALIFIED.

WE HAVE 10 DIVERS NOW, ALL OF WHOM HAVE COMPLETED THE PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION, DIVING INSTRUCTORS PUBLIC SAFETY DIVERS COURSE.

WE ARE OPERATING COMPLETELY OUT OF OUR OWN POCKETS.

WE ARE HOPING THAT CERT WILL BE ABLE TO ABSORB US IN.

THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A CONFLICT OF, OF, UH, BETWEEN THE LEGAL SIDE AND THE, THE IDEA OF WHAT WE WERE DOING WITH THE NATIONAL CERT.

AND THEY'RE LOOKING AT IT, WE'RE FIGURING THAT IF NEXT COUPLE YEARS, IF EVERYTHING GOES WELL, THEY'LL SEE THAT WE CAN ABSORB INTO THE BACK THE CERT.

AND SO WE WON'T HAVE TO DO ANY OF THE OTHER FORMING.

BUT WHAT WE, SOME OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WHAT WE DO AND WHAT, LIKE DALLAS, SOME OF THE OTHER BIG CITIES DIVE TEAMS, ONE, WE WILL DIVE AT NIGHT.

QUITE HONESTLY, WHEN YOU GET IN THE WATER AND YOU'RE DIVING, IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THERE'S DAYLIGHT OR NOT.

, YOU CAN'T SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

VISIBILITY BECAUSE YOU'RE DOWN, DOWN IN THE MUCK IS YOU CAN SEE THE INSIDE OF YOUR MASK.

AND THAT'S IT.

WE HAVE A TETHER.

MOST OF US DO HAVE COMMUNICATIONS.

I'VE BROUGHT ONE OF MY MASKS, MY FULL FACE MASK COMMUNICATIONS AND MY DIVE COMPUTER IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE THE KIND OF EQUIPMENT WE ARE USING.

WE HAVE DIVERS THAT, UH, HAVE DRY SUITS SO WE CAN DIVE ANY TIME OF YEAR.

AND WE HAVE, THREE OF OUR MEMBERS ARE EITHER FORMER LAW ENFORCEMENT, CURRENT LAW ENFORCEMENT, OR LIKE MYSELF, I'M MILITARY WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT BACKGROUND IN THE MILITARY.

PLUS I HAVE A DEGREE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT.

SO WE CAN HANDLE EVIDENCE RECOVERY, VEHICLE RECOVERY, AND BODY RECOVERY.

AND AT THIS POINT, I CAN GIVE THE SHERIFF AND ANY OF YOU THAT WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY CARD PERSONALLY, SO YOU CAN CALL ME CUZ I AM THE DEPUTY DIVE TEAM LEADER.

WE CAN ACTIVATE THE TEAM 24 HOURS A DAY, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK.

GOOD.

ARE YOU LOCATED IN KAUFMAN COUNTY? WE ARE.

I AM IN KAUFMAN AND THE GROUP IS BASICALLY OUTTA KAUFMAN AND ROCKWALL COUNTY.

AND WITH 10 DIVERS, YOU KNOW, WE CAN, WE CAN PUT LITERALLY, WE CAN PUT THREE DIVE TEAMS ON THE GROUND AT THE SAME TIME.

SHERIFF, WERE YOU AWARE OF THE ORGANIZATION? NO, SIR.

GIMME THIS CARD.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH OUR SHERIFF CUZ I'M SURE AT TIMES IT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO HAVE YOU AVAILABLE.

WELL, I'VE HEARD, I'VE HEARD STORIES FROM SOME OF THE DEPUTIES AND SOME OF THE OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FIRE DEPARTMENT PEOPLE THAT THEY'VE WAITED UP TO SEVEN MONTHS TO GET DALLAS OUT.

THEY CAN GET A CAR OUT OF A TANK.

OH, OKAY.

BUT I APPRECIATE YOU DOING THAT AND BEING HERE THIS MORNING AND ARE YOU GONNA HANG AROUND? SO YES SIR.

SOMEONE WILL LIKE TO SEE YOUR EQUIPMENT.

THEY CAN, SOMEONE WOULD LIKE SEE OUR EQUIPMENT AND AGAIN, THIS, THIS IS STUFF THAT WE ALL ARE DOING BECAUSE OF WE OF A WAY TO GIVE TO THE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY.

WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT.

I KNOW COMMISSIONER, YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANNA SAY? NO, THANK YOU.

I THANK YOU FOR, I THINK IT'S, EVERYTHING IS A PRETTY GOOD DEAL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THANK YOU TODAY.

AND PLEASE HANG AROUND FOR A LITTLE BIT.

DISCUSSED CONSIDERED APPROVING

NUMBER FOUR,

[4. Rhonda Hughey; Discuss/Consider approving a fee of $15.00 for passport photos and using the fee to offset the postage for mailing the applications.]

MR. RHONDA HUEY.

[00:10:01]

THE FEE OF $15 FOR PASSPORT PHOTOS AND USE THE FEE TO OFFSET THE POSTAGE FROM MAILING THE APPLICATIONS.

RHONDA AND I HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS NOT TOO LONG AGO.

I'M HERE TO ASK THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT.

I, I KNOW I JUDGE SAID, UH, SPOKE WITH HIM EARLIER LAST MONTH ABOUT OUR PASSPORTS.

WE'RE NOW TAKING PASSPORT PHOTOS IN MY OFFICE.

WE WORK, WE STARTED $10, UM, A PHOTO.

WE'VE NOW INCREASED, INCREASED THAT AMOUNT TO $15.

AND IF YOU CAN SEE, YOU'LL SEE IT.

MY, ON MY REPORT, JUST FROM JANUARY THE FIRST UNTIL TODAY, WE'VE PROCESSED 768 PASSPORTS WOW.

IN MY OFFICE.

UM, AND ON THE PHOTOS WE'VE TAKEN, UM, 122 PHOTOS ALREADY.

A LOT OF OUR PASSPORTS THAT WE'RE PROCESSING NOW, OR CITIZENS NOT OF KAUFMAN COUNTY.

I MEAN WE HAD ONE ON YESTERDAY FROM SAN ANTONIO.

AND THEY'RE COMING FROM EVERYWHERE CUZ OUR SURROUNDING COUNTIES ALL TAKE APPOINTMENTS.

WE DON'T, WE TAKE WALK-INS AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE COME IN ANYTIME THE HALLWAY IS FULL OF PASSPORT FOLKS.

UM, WE'RE A, I'M ASKING IF FOR US TO HAVE A SEPARATE LINE ITEM FOR THAT, OUR PASSPORT PHOTOS AND TO OFFSET OUR POSTAGE, UH, FOR ONE PACKAGE IS NINE $9 AND 65 CENTS TO MAIL, UH, SEVEN APPLICATIONS IN.

AND SO THAT'S ROUGHLY $40 A DAY IN POSTAGE.

AND SO I'M ASKING FOR OUR PASSPORT PHOTO MONEY TO GO INTO A SEPARATE LINE ITEM SO I CAN USE FOR THAT.

AND ALSO FOR MAINTAINING OUR EQUIPMENT, OUR CAMERA, UH, BUYING FILM AND STUFF.

AND TO USE FOR OUR PASS BACK INTO OUR PASSPORT OFFICE.

AND THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING FOR OUR $15, NOT OUR, WE GET A, EVERY APPLICATION, THE COUNTY RECEIVES $35.

I'M NOT ASKING FOR THAT MONEY.

I'M ASKING FOR THE $15 THAT WE USE FOR OUR PASSPORT PHOTOS AND EXPLAIN TO THEM LIKE YOU DID ME, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD ONLY PUT SO MANY PASSPORTS IN ONE ENVELOPE AND HAD TO BE MAILED THAT DAY.

WE PUT, WE'RE ALLOWED TO PUT SEVEN APPLICATIONS PER ENVELOPE, PRIORITY MAIL IN ONE OUT ENVELOPE.

IF WE PROCESS IT THAT DAY, IT HAS TO GO OUT THAT DAY.

AND SOMEONE FROM THAT OFFICE THAT'S CERTIFIED HAS TO TAKE IT TO THE POST OFFICE.

WE CAN'T PUT IT IN IN THE DROPBOX.

WE HAVE TO GO INSIDE AND HAND IT TO A PERSON.

ONTARIO, UH, POST POST OFFICE.

THEY DO, THEY DO 'EM ALSO, BUT THEY DO IT BY APPOINTMENTS.

SO THEY'RE SENDING 'EM TO US TOO.

DOES THAT, SO ALL OTHER COUNTIES DO THE BASICALLY APPOINTMENTS EVERY COUNTY AROUND US EXCEPT FOR ZA COUNTY AND HENDERSON COUNTY TAKES, UH, APP, UH, APPLICATIONS BY APPOINTMENTS.

AND SO WHEN THE LINE GETS TOO LONG, IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE GOING, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO START DOING? WE'RE TRYING TO, WE'RE TRYING.

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE BEEN TO OUR OFFICE IN THE MORNINGS, BUT YOU'LL SEE THAT WHOLE COUNTER FULL FULL.

AND WE'VE ALSO, WE USE OUR, WE BRING 'EM INSIDE TO TRY TO GET 'EM OUT.

I MEAN, I'VE LOOKED AT IT ON HERE.

I I I HAVEN'T LOOKED ON.

IT'S HORRIBLE NOW.

I MEAN, BUT WE'RE, WE'RE MANAGING ALWAYS BIGGER OVER THERE.

WE'RE MANAGING.

UH, WE DON'T WANNA GO TO APPOINTMENTS BECAUSE WE COULD MAKE SO MUCH MONEY QUICK FOR THE COUNTY MM-HMM.

, UH, AND WE'RE PROVIDING A SERVICE.

EVEN HOW MUCH, IT'S NOT JUST US, OUR CITIZENS.

HOW MUCH DOES DALLAS COUNTY CHARGE? EVERY, EVERY COUNTY CHARGE IS THE SAME.

THAT $35 IS THE SAME.

UH, AND WE ONLY CHARGE 1515 FOR OUR PHOTOS.

OH.

15 UHHUH.

A LOT OF COUNTIES DON'T TAKE PHOTOS BECAUSE IT'S A LITTLE MORE STEPS INVOLVED.

AND IT TAKES A, I MEAN, PROBABLY AN AVERAGE TO TAKE THE PHOTOS AND GET 'EM BACK OVER TO PROBABLY 10 MIN, 10 MINUTES TO GET 'EM OUT IN AND OUT.

WHERE, I MEAN, SOME COUNTIES JUST ON THERE IF YOU'RE CALLING, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT.

I KNOW ROCKWALL WE CALL YESTERDAY.

THEN THE NEXT APPOINTMENT IS, IS LIKE IN MAY.

IF YOU'RE PLANNING A TRIP, YOU CAN'T WAIT TILL MAY.

, YOU HAVE TO GET THE THING BACK.

OH, YOU HAVE TO PAY ONE YES.

OR SOMETHING.

THEN, THEN YOU HAVE TO STEP UP AND PAY ONE OF THOSE SERVICES TO GO GET IT FOR YOU.

WELL ONE GUY PAID A THOUSAND DOLLARS.

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING ON YESTERDAY AND FOUND OUT HE HAD FIRST OFFICE AFTER PAYING THE $30,000.

THAT WHAT THEY THAT'S CRAZY.

AND, AND EVEN THOSE RUSH MY PASSPORTS TELL HIM TO GO TO KAUFMAN.

BUT, WELL, I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA BECAUSE WE DO HAVE THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN.

UH, AND THIS HELP WILL HELP OFFSET IT.

AND IT'S NOT ON OUR CITIZENS, IT'S ON THOSE COMING FROM WHEREVER TO HELP.

COMMISSIONER BARBER MAKE THE RECOMMENDATION.

FUND THIS.

SO THAT'S GOOD.

SO DO I HAVE A MOTION TO ACCEPT RHONDA'S RECOMMENDATION? I'LL MAKE A MOTION.

UM, SHE'S HAD A TREMENDOUS SUCCESS JUST, UH, THE LAST YEAR ALONE.

UM, SHE HELPED WITH 51 ARREST.

UM, UNFORTUNATELY, UM, TINA HAS A, AN ISSUE THAT HAS COME UP WHERE WE HAVE TO MEDICALLY RETIRE HER, UH, TO PREVENT ANY OTHER FURTHER INJURIES.

UM, WE HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL THE RESOURCES AND WE HAVE COME TO THE, THE CONCLUSION THAT WOULD BE THE BEST THAT WE MEDICALLY RETIRE HER.

UM, OKAY.

AND OFFER HER TO HER OR HER LAST HANDER, DEPUTY ROSS, UM, WHO HAS ALL THE EQUIPMENT AND, UH, EVERYTHING TO CARRY OUT TINA'S LIFE.

AND SHE'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY VET BILLS FROM HERE ON OR WHATEVER.

HE WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL MEDICALS FROM THIS POINT FORWARD.

NUMBER NINE, CONSTABLE JOHNSON, AGAIN, PRESENTING EXCEPT PRECINCT TWO, CONSTABLE 22 20 22 ACTIVITY REPORT.

[9. Constable Johnson; Present/Accept Pet. tt2 Constable's Office 2022 activity report.]

YES, JASON? YES, SIR.

SO I APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY IN THIS, UM, BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE THE NUMBERS.

UM, FOR THE ACTIVITY REPORT OF JANUARY 1ST, 2022 TO DECEMBER 31ST, WE HAD A TOTAL OF 20,517 CALLS THAT WE ANSWERED.

UM, 1,359 REPORTS THAT WERE TAKEN.

UM, AND IF YOU LOOK ON YOUR THIRD PAGE, IT WILL IDENTIFY THE TYPE OF REPORTS THAT WE WERE, THAT WE HAVE TAKEN.

UM, THOSE WERE STRICTLY ON THE NEIGHBORS ITSELF.

UH, WE MADE 200 AND 266 ARREST.

WE BROKE THAT DOWN EVEN FURTHER.

233 WERE ADULT.

33 WERE JUVENILES.

CRIMINAL CASES THAT WE FILED HERE IN KAUFFMAN COUNTY TOTAL WERE 396.

UM, 343 OF THOSE WERE ADULTS.

56 WERE JUVENILES.

THE FELONIES WERE 191.

THAT'S BOTH BETWEEN ADULTS AND JUVENILES, NOT JUST ADULTS IN ITSELF.

UM, AND 205 MISDEMEANORS BETWEEN THE ADULTS AND JUVENILES ITSELF.

500 INVESTIGATIVE STOPS.

WE HAD 2,800 TRAFFIC STOPS.

WE ISSUED 614 CITATIONS, AND WE GAVE 2200 WARNINGS.

AGAIN, THIS IS NOT ABOUT HITTING PEOPLE'S POCKET, THIS IS ABOUT GETTING THEIR ATTENTION.

UM, WE SEIZED 40 WEAPONS.

UM, OUR CIVIL PROCESS, WE RECEIVED 652 CIVIL PAPERS.

WE BAIL OF 377 COURT HOURS.

WE HAD 292 EVICTION NOTICES.

UH, WE, WE DID 30 WRI OF POSSESSIONS, 246 CITATIONS, 40 SUBPOENAS, THREE PROTECTIVE ORDERS, AND 41 OTHERS, WHICH WOULD BE CONSIDERED WRIT OF EXECUTIONS.

UM, AGAIN, TINA WAS DEPLOYED, UH, JUST PRECINCT TWO ALONE, 14 TIMES.

SHE HELPED WITH 51 ARRESTS AND OTHER AGENCY DEPLOYMENTS.

THAT WAS CAROL FORNEY CRANDLE, UM, UH, EVEN SO THAT WAS 16 DEPLOYMENTS FROM OTHER AGENCIES.

SO SHE'S BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL IN HER CAREER.

AND THEN THE ARREST DATA THAT YOU CAN SEE, THOSE WERE THE TYPE OF, UH, UM, ARRESTS THAT WE'VE MADE UNDER THE NEIGHBORS REPORTING SYSTEM.

SO WE HAD A EVENTFUL YEAR TO SAY THE LEAST.

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THEM? THE TOUGH QUESTION.

DO WE REALLY WANT TO, UH, OKAY.

JUVENILES.

WELL, I MEAN, YOU, YOU KNOW, AS WELL AS WE DO, UM, SHERIFF TONIGHT, UH, JUVENILES WHEN WE ARREST HIM, UNFORTUNATELY, WE DO NOT HAVE A HOLDING CELL HERE, UH, HOLDING FACILITY.

SO UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE TO REACH OUT TO JUVENILE PROBATION.

WE HAVE TO FIND A PLACE THAT'S GOT A BED.

LOT OF TIMES MY GUYS HAVE DROVE DRIVEN ALL THE WAY TO A DESK ON A DROP OFF.

UM, AND A

[00:25:01]

A JUVENILE.

UM, UNFORTUNATELY THERE'S SEVERAL TIMES THAT WE HAVE GOT INTO POLICE PURSUITS, FELONY CHARGES, AND THERE'S NO PLACE TO HOUSE 'EM.

SO UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE TO LET THE JUVENILE GO WITH THE PARENT THAT DAY OF THE OFFENSE.

SO THAT'S, THAT'S, UH, HARD TO SWALLOW.

UM, SURE IS, BUT I, I CAN TELL YOU THAT A LOT OF TIMES THE JUVENILES THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH IS, AND I THINK SHERIFF CAN AGREE WITH ME, IT'S ALMOST THE SAME JUVENILE OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

UM, BECAUSE JUST UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO HOUSE 'EM.

AND IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT OUR FAULT.

UM, IT'S, UH, THE FAULT THAT, YOU KNOW, WE, WE NEED A PLACE TO HOUSE.

AND UNFORTUNATELY JUVENILES UNDERSTAND, HEY, WE CAN GO TO A COUNTY, WE CAN BREAK THE LAW BECAUSE NINE TIMES OUT OF 10, THEY DON'T HAVE A PLACE TO HOLD US.

AND THEY PUT AN ANKLE MONITOR ON US AND LET US GO.

A LOT OF TIMES THE JUVENILES CUT 'EM OFF OR GET 'EM WET ON PURPOSE AND GO DO WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.

SO WE'RE WORKING ON IT.

THEY KNOW THAT KAUFMAN COUNTY'S, YOU KNOW, TAKING THIS VERY SERIOUSLY.

AND IF OUR GUYS HAVE TO TAKE A SEVEN HOUR DRIVE TO DROP 'EM OFF, WE'LL DO IT.

WE DON'T CARE.

WHAT IS THE, THIS A BIG QUESTION FOR BOTH OF YOU.

WAIT TIME TO GET A JUVENILE IN A FACILITY, NORMALLY THEY'RE REALLY, IF WE GET 'EM ON THE PHONE, FAR AS THE WAIT TIME, BUT AS FAR AS THE STATE, GETTING 'EM INTO A STATE BED IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM.

THAT'S THE BIGGEST PROBLEM AS, UH, TALKING TO TRAVIS, THAT THAT'S OUR BIGGEST ISSUE IS WE'RE GETTING HIM A STATE BED AND THEY'RE THE STATE'S PAYING HIM TO HOUSE HIM HERE, BUT IT TAKES A BED FOR US TO DROP SOMEBODY OFF WHEN WE FIRST CHARGE HIM.

I SEE.

SO THE STATE'S THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WE'RE HAVING RIGHT NOW, IF WE OPEN THAT UP, IF THE STATE WOULD, WOULD START TAKING ALL THEIR PRISONERS THAT'S ALREADY BEEN CHARGED, UM, THEY'D PROBABLY OPEN UP ABOUT 10 OR 12 MINUTES AROUND HERE.

SO THAT'S WHAT HELP US.

SO YES, THAT'S WHERE WE NEED HELP IS THE STATE TO FUND THEIR PEOPLE AND OPEN UP THESE EXTRA MEDS THEY HAVE.

BUT THE, THAT WOULD HELP US.

THE STATE FACILITIES ARE FULL TOO.

THEY'RE JUST THAT AND THEY CLOSE THE BED CAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE PERSONNEL.

AND SO THEY PAY SOMEBODY ELSE TO HOLD THEIRS EVEN.

BUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING, AND THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE DOING YEAH.

HOLDING THIS JUVENILE HOLDING DEALS, KINDA LIKET DOES THE JAIL, WE'RE SITTING THERE HOLDING THEM, AND THEN THEY'LL PAY YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERY MONTH, BUT RIGHT.

IT TAKES A BID FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT INITIALLY RENTS PEOPLE.

THAT'S OUR, AND THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO, IT'S JUST A BACKGROUND UNDERSTAND.

IT'S, IT'S, RIGHT.

WELL, ONE OF THE GOOD THINGS IS, IS THAT IF WE, IF WE, I MEAN, WE, WE HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE A KID ARMED ROBBERY, UM, JUST TWO WEEKS AGO.

UM, AND, AND THANKFULLY WE REALIZED THE TOTALITY OF THE SITUATION THAT THEY HAD JUST CAUSED.

UM, AND WE HAD REACHED OUT TO JUVENILE PROBATION AND THEY WERE ABLE TO ROTATE SOMEBODY OUT.

UM, SOMEBODY WITH A LESSER CHARGE.

UM, SO THEY TOOK A, A MISDEMEANOR JUVENILE OUT, EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD MULTIPLE MISDEMEANORS, THEY WERE ABLE TO TAKE THAT PERSON OUT AND HOUSE THE PERSON THAT WE NEEDED TO GET HOUSED TO GET 'EM OFF THE STREET.

SO WE JUST PASSED IT AROUND.

IT'S JUST, UNFORTUNATELY, IF ALL OF 'EM ARE FULL THERE, THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO NO MATTER HOW FAR WE DRIVE.

WELL, THAT JUST SHOWS THE, THAT JUST SHOWS THE INTENSITY OF THE WHOLE THING BECAUSE THAT'S EVERYWHERE.

THEY'RE FULL EVERYWHERE.

IT'S, IT'S, YOU KNOW, EVEN IF YOU, BEFORE YOU HATE TO SAY IT, BUT EVEN IF YOU HAD ONE IN BEFORE OH, SURE.

AND, AND THEN YOU'D STILL BE SMART IN, IT'LL ALMOST BE BACK SQUARE ONE, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, IT'S SAD.

I MEAN, IT'S, IT'S A TERRIBLE SITUATION.

I MEAN, I WOULD SAY THAT IT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL IF WE HAD A JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER.

UM, NO DOUBT.

BUT LIKE COMMISSIONER WAS SAYING, I MEAN, IT WOULD GET PROBABLY FULL PRETTY QUICK, BUT AT LEAST WE WOULDN'T BE DRIVING, DRIVING HOURS AWAY.

UTILIZE THIS ONE FIRST.

, UM, BEFORE WE GET TO THAT POINT.

SOMETHING WE NEED TO WORK ON.

WE, WE COULD DICTATE WHO WE'RE HOUSING AND MAKE SURE THAT RIGHT.

THE COUNTY'S TAKEN CARE OF AND WE'RE HOLDING .

[10. Kristi Dickey; Discuss/Consider approving the Replat of Lot 10 In Cross Road Estates Subdivision, located on FM 2728 in PCT 1.]

YES, MA'AM.

GOOD MORNING.

HAPPY VALENTI.

MORNING, VALENTINE'S DAY.

UM, MR. PACHECO HAS, UH, SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION FOR A REPLAT OF LOT 10 IN, UH, CROSSROADS.

UM, ALL APPROVING AUTHORITIES HAVE REVIEWED HIS PACKET AND HAVE SIGNED OFF.

THE PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY 4.1 ACRES AND HE'S SPLITTING IT INTO TWO LOTS, UM, BEING 2.098 ACRES EACH FOR

[00:30:01]

SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USE.

AND SO WE'RE JUST ASKING THE COURT'S APPROVAL FOR THAT REPLAT.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THIS? THIS MIKE'S NOT HERE.

I NEED A MOTION TO ACCEPT IT THEN IF IT'S, I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION.

COMMISSIONER MOORE, MAKE THE MOTION.

COMMISSIONER BARBARA MAKES A SECOND.

DISCUSSED, CONSIDERED APPROVED,

NUMBER 11, KAREN BADLEY.

[11. Karen Badgley; Discuss/Consider/Approve proposed legislation regarding the dissolved Bois D'Arc Levee District.]

PROPOSED LEGISLATION REGARDING THE DISSOLVED BOAR LEVY DISTRICT.

YES, MA'AM.

AND, UM, STEVE HUEY MAY HAVE SOME INFORMATION ALSO.

SO HE'S HERE FOR THAT, BUT PRIMARILY WE GOT A CALL FROM THE DALLAS COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND, UM, SEVERAL YEARS AGO THROUGH LEGISLATION, WE DISSOLVED THE BOAR LEVY BECAUSE IT WAS INACTIVE FOR YEARS AND YEARS.

AND, UM, KAUFMAN COUNTY WENT THROUGH THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS OF, UM, THAT WE SET UP OF DISSOLVING ANY PROPERTY.

WE WORKED CAREFULLY WITH THE TREASURER AND STEVE HUEY IN MAKING SURE THAT THAT WAS DONE CORRECTLY.

AND SO A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I GOT A PHONE CALL FROM THE DALLAS COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

AND, UM, WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT, UM, BACK IN, UM, I GUESS, UM, SUBSEQUENT TO DISSOLVING THE LEVY, THE DALLAS COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT, UM, PLACED A PROPERTY BACK AS THE OWNER BEING THE BODARK LEVY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.

AND WHAT HAPPENED IS, THIS WAS A CORRECTION OF TITLE ON THIS PROPERTY THAT THEY DIDN'T REALIZE THAT, UM, DALLAS COUNTY WAS NOT THE TRUE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY, BUT THE BOAR ISLAND LEVY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT WAS THE PROPERTY OF THE, WAS THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY DUE TO A JUDGMENT OF CONDEMNATION THAT OCCURRED ON FEBRUARY 22ND, 1968.

SO WHEN DALLAS COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT CORRECTED THE TITLE AND, UH, PROPERTY OWNERSHIP INFORMATION, BASICALLY IT PLACED AS THE OWNER, THE VODI YORK LEVY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, WHICH REALLY DOESN'T EXIST.

SO WHAT DALLAS COUNTY WOULD LIKE TO DO, AND THEY'VE ACTUALLY SUBMITTED THIS TO THEIR, UM, LEGISLATION LEGISLATIVE, UM, COORDINATOR THAT WRITES THE LEGISLATION IS THEY ADDED A SECTION TO, UM, THE CODE DEALING WITH THE SPECIAL DISTRICTS AND THE PROPOSED LEGISLATION IS IN THE PACKET AND IS A SUMMARY.

WHAT IT BASICALLY ALLOWS IS A KAUFFMAN COUNTY IN DALLAS COUNTY, UM, COMMISSIONER'S COURTS TO APPOINT A RECEIVER TO SELL THAT PROPERTY.

AND THEN THE, IF THERE'S A NEW PROCEEDS LEFT OVER FROM THE SALE TO BE DIVIDED BETWEEN THE DALLAS COUNTY AND KAUFMAN COUNTY COMMISSIONER COURTS, WHICH WOULD JUST PUT IT BACK INTO THE GENERAL FUND.

AND THE LEGISLATION IS VERY SPECIFIC THAT IT DOESN'T, IT WON'T BE ANY TAXPAYER COST OR ANY COST TO EITHER DALLAS COUNTY OR KAUFMAN COUNTY, BUT IT WOULD JUST PROVIDE A VEHICLE TO BE ABLE TO DISPOSE OF THE PROPERTY SINCE THAT LEVY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT REALLY DOESN'T EXIST.

SO, UM, WHAT DALLAS COUNTY WOULD LIKE FOR US TO DO IS TO KAUFMAN COUNTY TO APPROVE OR SUPPORT THEIR PROPOSED LEGISLATION.

AND IF THAT'S, AND IF THE, UM, IF THE COURT APPROVES, IT APPROVES TO SUPPORT THAT.

AND, AND, UH, THEN WE WILL, UM, PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION TO KEITH BELL AND BOB HALL, OUR, OUR LEGISLATIVE REPRESENTATIVES AS, AS A COURTESY.

AND, UM, AND WE'LL SEE HOW IF IT, YOU KNOW, GETS PASSED THROUGH THE LEGISLATURE THIS SESSION.

DO YOU ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT OR FOR ME OR FOR STEVE? STRAIGHT FORWARD.

MR. PHELPS, MAKE A MOTION.
