[00:00:05]
SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND CALL THIS MEETING DAUGHTER.
THIS IS, UH, UH, THE 24TH DAY OF AUGUST AT 9 35.
UM, I'D LIKE TO ASK COMMISSIONER, UH, JACKSON TO, UH, LEAD US IN AN APPLICATION.

YOU SHOULD HAVE A COPY OF THE MINUTES OF THE LAST MEETING FOR YOU.
EVERYBODY WILL LOOK THAT OVER IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS OR ADDENDUMS. WE'LL, UH, I'LL ACCEPT A MOTION ON THAT SECOND MOTION MADE BY MR. CLARK.
UH, I NOTICED WE HAVE A LARGE GROUP TODAY.
IF ANYONE WISHES TO SPEAK, UH, THERE'S FOUR SIGNED UP.
LOOKS LIKE IT'S, UH, ABOUT THE FIRE BUDGET.
IF ANYONE ELSE WISHES TO SPEAK ON THAT, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
UH, I THINK MR. CLARK'S GONE OVER THIS WITH MOST OF YOU, BUT SINCE YOU'RE NOT ON THE AGENDA, WE CAN'T TAKE ANY ACTION ON ANYTHING TODAY.
BUT WE CAN LISTEN TO YOU, TO YOUR, UH, YOUR CONCERNS.
AND IF YOU STILL WANT TO GET ON THE AGENDA FOR NEXT WEEK, WHICH I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU DO, UM, SOMEBODY CAN, CAN, UH, ONE OF THE COMMISSIONERS EVEN CAN PUT YOU ON THE AGENDA.
IF YOU'LL TALK TO ANY OF THE COMMISSIONERS, THEY'LL GET YOU ON THE AGENDA FOR NEXT WEEK.
BUT WE WILL LISTEN TO YOU TODAY.
UH, WHERE'S, UH, WHERE IS THAT ON THE, ON THE SECOND PAGE? OKAY.
I'M GONNA SKIP AROUND ON SOME OF THESE THINGS TODAY TO GET SOMEBODY, SOME OF YOU OUT OF HERE AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN.
UH, FIRST THING I'M GONNA TAKE UP TODAY IS TO DISCUSS, CONSIDER ON THE SECOND PAGE OF YOUR AGENDA TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER APPOINTING TINA BEARD, JOANNA JOHNSON, SUSAN KIM, DAVE MORGAN, CINDY MCKINNEY, LYNETTE OU, BONNIE NICHOLS, AND LISA GRAY SMITH AS COMAN COUNTY CHILD BOARD, CHILD WELFARE BOARD MEMBERS.
SUSIE, ARE YOU HERE WITH THAT? OKAY.
UH, THIS IS JUST A, A FORMALITY.
I THINK WE'D ALREADY LOOKED AT THOSE, IF ANYBODY HAS ANY DISCUSSION ABOUT ANY OF THOSE.
MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER CLARK SECOND, AND BY COMMISSIONER DELLER.
ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
AND IF YOU DO HAVE SOME QUESTIONS LIKE YOU HAD ASKED ME EARLIER, YOU'LL CALL THE JUDGE'S OFFICE, UH, LATER THIS WEEK.
UH, I THINK WE'LL GO AHEAD AND LET, UH, THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ABOUT THE, UH, UH, FIRE DEPARTMENT, GO AHEAD AND, AND HAVE HER SAY EDDIE BROWN FROM KAUFMAN, THE FIRST ONE UP.
EDDIE, WOULD YOU COME UP AND, UH, HE CAN SPEAK THREE MINUTES
[00:05:01]
AND WE CAN'T, LIKE I SAID, WE CAN'T.WE'RE PROBABLY NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO RESPOND THE WAY WE SPEAK, BUT WE CAN'T MAKE ANY DECISIONS TODAY.
BUT WE'LL HEAR YOUR TALK AND, UH, YOU TALK TO ME IF YOU WANT TO GET ON THE AGENDA FOR NEXT WEEK, AND WE'LL MAKE SURE YOU DO IT.
UH, I'D LIKE TO BRING THE REST OF THE COMMISSIONERS UP THAT, UH, THERE WAS A LITTLE HISTORY.
UH, WE WERE THE FIRST ONES FORMED FIRE HISTORY.
THIS WAS FORMED, UH, BACK IN, UH, JUNE 18TH, 1991.
BACK THEN, DISTRICT CAN ONLY DRAW THREE STEPS ON A HUNDRED.
THAT'S ALL WE CAN DRAW, COULD DRAW THE MORE.
UH, SO WE FORMED IT, BUT PRIOR TO THAT, WE KNEW HOW MUCH REVENUE THAT WE WOULD PULL IN AT THAT TIME.
SO WE ENTERED INTO A CONTRACT WITH THE COUNTY.
UH, THE VACCINE DOOR SIGNED THE CONTRACT.
THIS WAS DONE IN MAY 28TH, 1985, TWO YEARS PRIOR TO THIS DISTRICT, BECAUSE WE KNEW WE WOULDN'T GET ENOUGH MONEY.
OVER THE YEARS, THE, THE, UH, COUNTY KEPT ADDING MONEY TO OUR FUNDS BECAUSE OVER THE YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS THAT WE WENT BY TO SUPPLEMENT THIS RURAL FIRE DISTRICT, UH, WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE SOUTH END IS NOT AS RICH AS THE RICH AS THE NORTH END WITH ROOFTOPS AND POWER PLANTS.
AND, AND, UH, AND SOME OF THE DISTRICTS GOT IN UNDER, UH, A NEW ESD, WHICH ALLOWED THEM TO GO TO 10 SANDS.
WE'RE NOT THAT FORTUNATE OVER HERE.
WE'RE STUCK AT A CERTAIN AMOUNT, AND THAT'S IT.
UNLESS YOU GO OUT TO THE PEOPLE AND ASK FOR A VOTE.
AND WE ALL SIT HERE AND KNOW TODAY THAT AN ECONOMY, AS BAD AS IT IS, A VOTE WILL NOT PAY.
IT'S JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN ON THE SOUTH END, NO MATTER HOW HARD, HOW HARD WE TRY THREATEN.
AND WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO THREATEN NOBODY.
UH, I'M NOT HERE TO THREATEN NOBODY.
I'M JUST, UH, I'M JUST HERE TO TRY TO, TO SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.
I'VE GOT A DEBT PAYMENT SITTING OVER HERE IN MY STATION RIGHT NOW OF $49,169.
THAT'S FOR TRUCKS AND INSURANCE.
I DROPPED 50,000 FROM RURAL FIRE DISTRICT THAT DON'T LEAVE MUCH, LEFT ABOUT $800.
THAT'S TO TAKE CARE OF IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO 'EM.
I JUST HAVE TO PUSH 'EM OUT IN THE, IN THE, IN THE PARKING LOT BECAUSE I CAN'T FIX THEM.
UH, THAT'S WHY HE USED THE COUNTY'S MONEY FOR US TO MAINTAIN THESE VEHICLE.
AND, UH, BUT, UH, AS THIS DWINDLES AWAY, UH, YOU KNOW, IT, IT, IT, WE GOT 20%, UH, UH, CUT THIS YEAR.
DIDN'T EVEN GET ANY, WE'RE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE, WE'RE IN BAD SHAPE.
WE COULD NEED TO CUT SOMETHING OR NOTHING.
WE JUST GOT A LETTER SAYING, THAT'S IT.
UH, THAT WAS A LITTLE DISTURBING.
WE HAD A, A GOOD LONG RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COUNTY, I THOUGHT.
AND, UH, WE COULD TALK ABOUT ANYTHING, BUT, UH, UH, WHEN I JUST GET A LETTER, I JUST, UH, IT'S JUST, I WASN'T, I'M, I'M NOT HERE TO ARGUE.
I KNOW TIME FOR BAD, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING'S GOTTA BE, UH, UH, SOMETHING'S GOTTA BE DONE.
I JUST DON'T WANT, I'M, I'M KIND OF BACKED UP AGAINST WALL AND WHERE TO GO.
UM, AND I, I KEEP HEARING THE, WELL, THIS IS GOING, NEEDS TO GO AWAY.
AND THEN THE RURAL DISTRICTS JUST GOING, HAD TO PICK IT UP.
I HEARD, WELL, THE RURAL DISTRICT AND I MET WITH OUR RURAL DISTRICT PEOPLE, UH, UH, WE JUST NEED TO GET OUT AND HUSTLE AND GET THE BOATS AND GET THIS PASSED, BUT THE COMPANY'S NOT GONNA ALLOW US TO DO THAT.
UH, ANOTHER, ANOTHER ENTITY BACK HERE HAS DONE TRIED IT LATELY IN FAILED.
UM, SO, UH, LIKE I SAY, WE'VE GOT $827.
IF THIS ALL GOES AWAY, THE COUNTY'S MONEY GOES AWAY.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA BE LEFT WITH, UH, THIS YEAR.
I KNOW, I, I CAN, YOU KNOW, I CAN TRY TO GET, GET BY THIS YEAR AND, UH, AND I CAN, I'LL JUST HAVE TO CUT SOMETHING ELSE OUT.
UM, BUT ONCE IT'S GO, I'LL CONTINUE RUNNING IN THE DISTRICT.
EVEN WITHOUT THE COUNTY'S MONEY, I AIN'T GOT NO CHOICE.
BUT I'VE GOT THIS SITTING IN THE STATION, BUT I'LL HAVE TO LIMIT TO WHAT I DO.
I RESIDE IN PRECINCT ONE COUNTY ROAD 1 4 6.
SPEAK ABOUT THE CUTTING THE BUDGET FOR THE FIRE DISTRICT.
THE VOLUNTEERS GET THEIR MONEY FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES.
THEY, THEY GET FEDERAL GRANTS, THEY GET STATE GRANTS, THEY GET COUNTY MONEY, THEY GET RURAL FIRE DISTRICT MONEY.
THEY GET TO THE NATIONS, THEY DO FUNDRAISERS.
FEDERAL MONEY HAS JUST SWITCHED THIS YEAR IN THE PAST.
[00:10:01]
A LOT OF MONEY FOR EQUIPMENT THIS YEAR.THEY'VE CHANGED IT INTO SAFER EVENTS SINCE ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEER UNITS, NOT A, ONE OF 'EM HAS A PAID EMPLOYEE.
SO THE SAFER GRANTS ELIMINATE US AT ALL FROM GETTING ANY OF THAT MONEY.
THAT MEANS THE REDUCTION IN GRANT MONEY FOR EQUIPMENT IS GOING DOWN.
SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO COMPETE FOR MORE OF THAT MONEY.
SAME WAY, HB 26 0 4, THE MONEY THAT IS ALLOCATED FOR US TO GO TO TRAINING.
IT WAS JUST REDUCED $5 MILLION TO FUND A WHILE.
PREVENTION FOR WILDLIFE PROTECTION, WHICH MEANS THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO TAKE FOR OUR VOLUNTEERS TO GO TO SCHOOL, OR THERE'S GONNA BE MORE COMPETITIVE AND WE'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO SEND THE VOLUNTEERS TO COUNTY.
YOU HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT REDUCING IT.
DONATIONS ARE DOWN, SO THERE'S NOTHING LEFT.
YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING AT A VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATION THAT'S PROBABLY THE LARGEST GROUP OF PEOPLE IN THE COUNTY.
WE CAN PUT MORE PEOPLE ON THE GROUND THAN ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION THAT YOU'VE HAD.
COMMISSIONER DELAWARE WAS OUT LAST WEEK AT TAYLOR RANCH.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY FIREMEN YOU SAW OUT THERE, BUT IT WAS MORE THAN ONE OR TWO.
SO IF YOU GUYS HAVE TO CUT IT, YOU'RE TALKING SERIOUS IMPACT ON OUR SERVICES.
UH, I AM WITH THE GENERAL VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT AND, UH, MS. ECHO WITH, UH, CHIEF BROWN AND MR. DAVIS SAID, UH, NUMBER OF CALLS HAVE INCREASED YEAR BY YEAR.
I KNOW AND TERRIBLY RUN APPROXIMATELY 800 POUNDS A YEAR WITH THE ESD AND THE COUNTY MONEY WHO RUNS ON ABOUT A HUNDRED THOUSAND A YEAR.
AND IT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT UNTIL YOU REALIZE WE SPEND ABOUT 10,000 A YEAR ON FUEL.
10,000 A YEAR ON EQUIPMENT OR INSURANCE ROAD EQUIPMENT IS A CONSTANT COST IT'S EVER INCREASING TO OUTFIT A ONE FIREFIGHTER WITH A SET OF BUNKER GEAR IS ROUGHLY 2000.
AND WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 30 VOLUNTEERS.
IF SOMEBODY GETS THAT EQUIPMENT RUINED WITH THIS CUT, WE NOT REPLACE IT.
RIGHT NOW WE'RE USING SUBSTANDARD GEAR.
SOME OF THEM, WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPLACE IT, APPLY FOR GRANTS.
IT'S NOT LIKELY TO COME THROUGH.
I'M NOT HOLDING MY, AS I SAID, THE MONEY IS VERY LIMITED, NUMEROUS STRAWS ON IT.
THE LAST THING ANYBODY WANTS TO DO IS CUT SERVICE, BUT IT'S BEGINNING TO, I MEAN, IT'S GOTTA BE CUT SOMEWHERE RIGHT NOW.
WE TRY TO SEND AS MANY TRUCKS AS WE THINK WE'LL NEED SO WE CAN STOP IT BEFORE IT GETS BAD.
BUT IF WE HAVE TO GO BACK TO CUTTING THE TRUCK JUST TO SAVE FUEL, THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO DO.
AS MR. DAVIS SAID, YOU DON'T HAVE APPROXIMATELY 13 DEPARTMENTS IN THIS COUNTY.
OF THOSE ONLY TWO ARE PAID OR PART PAID.
YOU GET A LIVE BANK FOR YOUR BUCK HERE.
AND THE AMOUNT OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT JUST IN THE FIVE YEARS I'VE BEEN VOLUNTEERING IS ASTONISHING THAT WE'VE SAID.
AND IF WE WEREN'T THERE, WEREN'T ABLE TO RESPOND AS STRONGLY, I'M SURE THE INSURANCE RATES WOULD GO UP AND THE DAMAGE WOULD'VE BEEN GREAT.
I'M WITH THE SCURRY VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT.
AND, UM, I DON'T UNDERSTAND A LOT OF THE BUDGET THINGS, BUT I, I, FROM OUR DEPARTMENT, THE, THE MONEY WE GET FROM THE FIRE DISTRICT GOES TO OUR BANK NOTE, OUR ENGINE PAYMENT, OUR INSURANCE, AND OUR LAND PAYMENT.
ANYTHING ELSE ABOVE THAT? WE DEPEND ON THE COUNTY PART.
SO, YOU KNOW, AS, AS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE MOVE INTO THE TO
[00:15:01]
SCURRY AREA, UH, WE NEED HELP ON TRAINING, ON EQUIPMENT, UPDATING OUR EQUIPMENT, AND, UH, UH, CUTTING OUR BUDGET.WE DON'T, YOU KNOW, BEING FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, WE DON'T THINK THAT'S THE ANSWER IS CUTTING OUR BUDGET.
I'VE HEARD A LOT OF STUFF GOING ON AT THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND, AND, AND SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON, AND I'M NOT SURE ABOUT ALL OF THAT.
UH, SOME OF IT SEEMS UNNECESSARY TO ME WHEN, YOU KNOW, IF YOUR HOUSE CATCHES ON FIRE, YOU WANT TO HAVE A FIRE DEPARTMENT THAT CAN, IT CAN RESPOND WITH YOUR, UH, PROPERTY EQUIPMENT.
UH, IF THEY NEED NEIGHBORING DEPARTMENTS, YOU WANT THEM TO BE ABLE TO RESPOND AND HELP TOO.
YOU KNOW, WE'RE SO, A LOT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS, SO, UH, DURING THE DAY ESPECIALLY, WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GONNA SHOW UP.
SO IF WE HAVE A STRUCTURE FIRE, WE ARE A AUTOMATIC AID.
IF THEY DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, IF EDDIE DOESN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO RUN THE COFFMAN FIRE DEPARTMENT LIKE HE NEEDS TO, AND WITH THE EQUIPMENT OR BRIAN OVER IN KEN, WE DEPEND ON THAT, THAT MONEY AND THAT EQUIPMENT TO, UH, HELP US OUT.
SO WE'RE JUST ASKING, DON'T CUT OUR BUDGET.
UH, WELL, AS I SAID, IF YOU NEED TO GET ON THE AGENDA, HAVE EDDIE TALK TO ME AND I'LL WORK THAT OUT.
OBVIOUSLY, COUNTY IS NOT, UH, TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO KEEP FROM CUTTING ANY SERVICES, OBVIOUSLY.
UH, EVERYBODY'S BUDGET GOT CUT A LOT.
PROBABLY NOT MANY OF 'EM GOT CUT 20% AS MUCH AS YOUR DID.
SHERIFF'S BUDGET GOT CUT A BIG, BIG AMOUNT.
EVERYBODY'S BUDGET, BUDGET GOT CUT.
BUT, UH, GET ON THE AGENDA FOR NEXT WEEK, NEXT MONDAY, AND WE'LL LISTEN TO IT AND SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING WE CAN DO, OBVIOUSLY.
SO ANYWAY, I APPRECIATE Y'ALL ALL SHOWING UP TODAY.
THANK YOU FOR COMING, MAKING YOUR VOICES HEARD AND AGAIN WITH ME ABOUT THAT.
UH, THE NEXT ITEM WE HAVE ON THE AGENDA IS TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER PROCLAIMING AUGUST 26TH, 2009 IS LAUREN SMITH DAY IN KAUFMAN COUNTY.
UH, AND THE, THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY RICK HARRISON, IS GOING TO, UH, PRESENT THIS TO US.
PLEASE COURT PROCLAMATION AND HONOR OF LAUREN SMITH, WHEREAS LAUREN SMITH, A 13-YEAR-OLD EIGHTH GRADER IN RESIDENT PONY, WHO LOVES TO DANCE, SING, PLAY PRACTICAL JOKES, AND MAKE PEOPLE SMILE, HAS WAIVED A TWO YEAR BATTLE OF CANCER.
SHE'S ENDURED SURGERY TO HAVE HER KNEE AND FEMUR REPLACED AS WELL AS LUNG SURGERY AND COUNTLESS MONTHS OF CHEMO TREATMENT.
HER FAVORITE BIBLE VERSE, PHILIPPIANS FOUR 13, I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST.
WHEREAS LAUREN SMITH HAS PERSEVERED THROUGH ALL OF THIS WITH UNPARALLELED COURAGE, DETERMINATION, AND A CAN-DO NEVER COMPLAINING ATTITUDE ADMIRED BY THE CITIZENS OF 40 AND CITIZENS THROUGHOUT KAMAN COUNTY.
WHEREAS THE CRIMINAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY OF KAMAN COUNTY TODAY AWARDS LAUREN SMITH, THE KAUFMAN COUNTY MEDAL OF COURAGE AND PETITIONS THIS COURT TO CLAIM AUGUST 26TH, 2009, AS LAUREN SMITH DAY IN KALIN COUNTY.
WHEREAS THE COUNTY JUDGE AND COMMISSIONER'S COURT ACKNOWLEDGE AND HONOR LAUREN SMITH FOR HER COURAGE, DETERMINATION, AND POSITIVE ATTITUDE DURING THIS MOST DIFFICULT TIMES.
NOW, THEREFORE, WE DO HEREBY CLAIM THE 26TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2009 IS LAUREN SMITH DAY IN KAUFMAN COUNTY, THE WITNESS WHEREOF.
WE HEREBY FIX OUR SIGNATURES ON THIS THE 24TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2009.
I PRESENT TO THE COURT, MR. HARRIS, WE HAVE THIS, UH, PETITION ALREADY.
THAT'S PROCLAMATION ALREADY SIGNED BY THE JUDGE.
[00:20:01]
MOTION MADE BY, UH, COMMISSIONER CLARK, SECONDED BY, UH, UH, COMMISSIONER JACKSON.UH, LAUREN, WE UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
I JUST WANTED TO LET Y'ALL KNOW TOO THAT, UH, THEY'RE HAVING A, UH, THE REASON I PICKED THE 26TH, UH, DAY OF, UH, AUGUST THIS WEEK ON WEDNESDAY.
THAT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL AT FORNEY.
UH, SO, UH, AND LAUREN IS GOING TO BE STARTING OR GOING BACK TO, UH, BROWN, UH, MIDDLE SCHOOL, AND SHE'S GONNA START ON WEDNESDAY.
I'M GONNA TALK TO DR. BROWN OVER THERE, THE SUPERINTENDENT, AND SEE IF WE CAN MAYBE GET SOMETHING WORKED OUT.
AND SHE IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOR, PINK? WAS THAT IT? MAYBE GET HIM, MAKE HIM WEAR PINK OR SOMETHING ON, ON THE, MAYBE HAVE A NON-UNIFORM DAY AND HAVE MORE PINK ON FRIDAY.
BUT, UH, ANYWAY, THEY'RE HAVING A LOT OF EVENTS FOR LAUREN THIS WEEK.
ON FRIDAY, ON SATURDAY, HER FAMILY'S, UH, ENDURED A LOT OF, UH, HARDSHIP WITH FINANCES.
A LOT OF THE TREATMENT SHE'S DOING AT THIS POINT IS NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE.
SO, UH, UH, THERE'LL BE SOME EVENTS FOR HER TO RAISE MONEY ON, UH, UH, FRIDAY AND I THINK SATURDAY OF THIS WEEK IN CORN.
SO, UH, AND ANYBODY WANTING TO MAKE ANY KIND OF DONATION FOR HER CAN DO IT TO THE LAUREN SMITH MEDICAL FUND.
AND THAT'S OVER AT CITIBANK OVER IN FLORIDA.
SO IF ANYBODY'S INTERESTED, UH, THEY CAN SURE USE THE HELP.
BUT, UH, THIS IS A COURAGEOUS, UH, SHINING LIGHT IN KAUFMAN COUNTY, AND I'M PROUD TO BRING THIS TO THE COURT HERE TODAY.
ALL OF OUR PRAYERS GO WITH YOU.
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT TO US.
TURN THIS WAY THROUGH THERE, GENTLEMEN.
YOU KNOW, JUDY, SHE'S TRYING TO GET HER OWN COPY RIGHT HERE.
NO, YOU GOTTA, YOU GOTTA MAKE A COPY.
HOW ABOUT THAT? I'LL BRING YOU A COPY.
JOHN HOWARD, YOU KEEP EVERYBODY IN LINE.
THE NEXT ON THE AGENDA IS TO CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING ON CREATION OF LEAD LEDBETTER FRESHWATER SUPPLY DISTRICT NUMBER TWO OF KAMAN COUNTY.
UH, I'LL, UH, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO EXACT EXIT THE REGULAR MEETING AND ENTER TO A PUBLIC HEARING.
I'LL MAKE MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER DOWNER.
UH, WE'RE NOW IN A PUBLIC HEARING.
I'M AN ATTORNEY WITH THE COACH ROSE LAW FIRM IN DALLAS, AND I'M HERE REPRESENTING TAR 400 C TWO 50 LLP, WHICH IS THE OWNER OF VIRTUALLY ALL THE LAND INSIDE THIS PROPOSED 360, UH, ACRES I HAVE WITH TODAY, BRIAN LANCE AND DOUG LAND, WHO ARE LANDOWNER.
AND I'M GONNA LET HIM KIND OF GET YOU ACCLIMATED.
UM, IT'D BE GOOD FOR ME AND JERRY BETTER.
SO WE'RE SPECIFICALLY TALKING ABOUT LEADBETTER NUMBER ONE AND LEDBETTER NUMBER TWO.
AND LEDBETTER NUMBER TWO, START TWO.
SO PROPERTY, THE CORNER OF FIVE STATE HIGHWAY 2 0 5 PROJECTION, THE AIRPORT THERE, 1392.
IT'S, IT'S RIGHT AT THE NORTH EDGE OF YOUR COUNTY LINE THERE.
AND SO JUST TO GIVE YOU A FRAME OF REFERENCE, WHAT, LET'S JUST, LET'S JUST DEAL WITH TWO BY, OKAY.
EVERYBODY ACCLIMATED, CUT THAT.
AND WE CAN A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A DEVELOPMENT PLAN.
UM, WE'VE BEEN THE MASTER PLAN IDEAS TO DEVELOP THIS, A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY.
[00:25:04]
SO THAT GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF THE 3 86 ACRES ALTOGETHER.IT, WITHIN THE LOOK AT, AS YOU ALL MAY BE AWARE, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR A COUPLE YEARS.
UH, KIND OF SLOW, STEADY EVOLUTION, UH, WORKING WITH ALL THE VARIOUS LOCAL ENTITIES.
AND, UH, THIS PROPERTY IS ALL LOCATED WITHIN THE, THE, UH, CITY OF CLINTON CHISHOLM.
UH, AND THE PROPERTY AS A WHOLE IS, IS LOCATED WITHIN A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT SCHOOL DISTRICTS.
IT'S IN THE HIGH POINT WATER SUPPLY CORPORATION.
AND SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH ALL THE LOCAL PEOPLE, UH, TO GET THEIR SUPPORT.
AND WE'VE ALSO BEEN INTERFACING, UH, WITH COMMISSIONER PATON.
ALL OF THIS CULMINATED ON JULY 30TH WITH US PRESENTING TO THE JUDGE A FORMAL PETITION REQUESTING THE, THE CREATION OF THIS DISTRICT.
AND ACCOMPANYING THAT PETITION, YOU ALL MAY HAVE RECEIVED THOSE, UH, A PACKET THAT CERTAIN, SENT ENOUGH OF 'EM OVER, AND THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DISTRIBUTE THEM TO ALL THE COMMISSIONERS.
AND THAT HAD IN THERE OUR PETITION, UH, CONSENT OF OUR LIEN HOLDER, UH, CONSENT OF THE CITY, UH, A DRAFT ORDER THAT WE WERE ASKING YOU GUYS TO CONSIDER ADOPTING IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CREATION OF THIS DISTRICT.
MARKED STUDY, ENGINEERING STUDY, THE PRELIMINARY TRAFFIC STUDY.
AND SO WE'RE, WE'RE CERTAINLY HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU ALL MAY HAVE ABOUT THOSE DOCUMENTS FOLLOWING THE FILING OF THAT PETITION, UH, WITH THE JUDGE.
AND UNDER LAW, ONCE WE FILE THAT PETITION, THEN YOU ALL HAVE TO MEET AND CONSIDER IT BETWEEN 15 AND 30 DAYS.
SO WE COMMUNICATED WITH THE JUDGE'S OFFICE TARGETED THIS DATE, THE 24TH, BACKED INTO IT.
SO THAT'S, THAT'S HOW WE GOT TO THAT.
FOLLOWING THE FILING OF THE PETITION, WE WORKED WITH YOUR COUNTY CLERK.
WE HAD POSTED AT THE, UH, COUNTY COURTHOUSE NOTICE OF IT.
WE HAD POSTED AT FOUR PLACES WITHIN THE DISTRICT NOTICE OF IT AND AS WHAT'S REQUIRED BY LAW.
UH, AND SO WE ARE HERE TODAY, UH, REQUESTING THAT YOU ALL CONSIDER CREATING THE DISTRICT, ADOPTING THE ORDER THAT WE'VE DRAFTED, AND THEN APPOINTING FIVE PERSONS AS TEMPORARY SUPERVISORS, AND WE HAVE QUALIFIED THEM TO SERVE AS SUPERVISORS.
THOSE FIVE PERSONS ARE JOSEPHINE ALBERT, FANNIE CRIDDLE, JOYCE GREEN, BIRDIE HOUSTON, AND CAROLYN MATHIS.
ONE THING I WANT TO POINT OUT ABOUT THE QUARTER THAT WE HAVE DRAFTED, UH, IT'S A LITTLE BIT UNUSUAL, UH, FROM THE OTHER ONES THAT YOU GUYS HAVE ADOPTED IN THE PAST.
AND THAT REALLY COMES, UH, IN RESPONSE, UH, TO SOME COMMENTS FROM, UH, COMMISSIONER CLARK.
WE ASK YOU TO ADOPT THE ORDER.
THE ORDER CREATES THE DISTRICT.
IT THEN PROVIDES IN THERE THAT WE CANNOT PROVIDE ANY PUBLIC SERVICES TO ANYBODY UNTIL WE ENTER INTO A SUBSEQUENT AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE OPERATION OF THE DISTRICT.
AND THAT'S ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT D TO THE ORDER IN THAT AGREEMENT.
IT PROVIDES IN THERE THAT WE WILL NOT UTILIZE OUR POWERS OF EMMETT LOMA, UH, ANY DISTANCE, MORE THAN EIGHT MILES FROM OUR BORDER.
UH, I KNOW THAT'S BEEN A HOT BUTTON WITH YOU GUYS.
IT'S BEEN A HOT BUTTON WITH COMMISSIONER CLARK IN OUR OTHER DISTRICT.
YOU'LL SEE THAT WE HAVE SOME OTHER THINGS THAT WE NEGOTIATED, AND THIS IS WITHIN, AT THAT POINT.
SO AT THIS POINT, I'M READY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
YOU GUYS MAY HAVE REPRESENTATIVE AS THE LANDOWNER.
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR HEARING.
THEN WHAT WE'RE ASKING YOU ALL TO DO IS APPROVE THE ORDER AND APPOINT THE SPECIAL COMMISSIONERS.
AND, AND I WILL SAY WE, WE SUBMITTED A DRAFT OF THE ORDER TO YOUR ATTORNEY.
I HAD MY OFFICE CALL LATER ON THIS WEEK.
I DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAD A CHANCE TO GET AHOLD OF, OF YOU, JOHN, TO SEE IF YOU HAD ANY FINAL COMMENTS ON IT.
I, I, I DID NOT HAVE ANY COMMENTS.
AND THE ONLY THING I'VE DONE IS I TOOK THAT DRAFT ORDER.
THERE WERE TWO BLANKS, TWO BLANKS IN THERE.
ONE WAS THE DATE WE FILED THE PETITION.
AND THE OTHER ONE IS THE DATE OF THIS HEARING.
SO I HAVE THOSE FINAL ONES AND I'LL, I'LL GIVE THOSE TO YOU.
CERTAINLY FEEL FREE TO REVIEW 'EM, CHECK 'EM.
UH, BUT THOSE ARE THE ONLY TWO CHANGES WE MADE.
ALL THAT I HAD IN MY PACKET WAS, UH, THE, THE TWO PAGE LETTER THAT YOU HAVE THAT PUTS IT ON THE AGENDA.
THERE SHOULD BE, DO YOU HAVE A COPY OF THE, I I'VE GOT A COPY OF IT WITH YOU.
AND IF YOU HAD, IF YOU DIDN'T, I, I MADE PACKETS FOR ALL THE COMMISSIONERS.
I GUESS I DIDN'T MAKE A PACKET FOR YOU.
AND THEN CERTAINLY FEEL FREE TO REVIEW IT AND IF YOU HAVE ANY FINAL COMMENTS ON IT, CHANGES TO IT.
ARE YOU OKAY WITH THAT, JOHN? I'M OKAY WITH THAT.
ARE ARE THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION QUESTIONS? I, I'M ONLY, ARE YOU, I'M LISTENING TO RAISE.
[00:30:01]
A PRELIMINARY EXERCISE FOR, FOR THE BOARDER.UH, THE FIRST, THE FIRST DEVELOPER AGREEMENT THAT THE COMMISSIONER COURT ENTERED INTO WITH THE DISTRICT, AND I THINK IT'S GONNA BE A PRIORITY THAT WE SHOULD BE DOING FROM HERE ON OUT, IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE GET SOME CERTAIN THINGS DONE THAT ALLOWED TO, BY LAW, THAT WE CAN ASK THE DEVELOPER TO DO PRIOR TO, UH, GRANTING ANY KIND OF DISTRICT.
AND LIKE IN THIS PARTICULAR ONE, YOU IS THE LIMITATION, RIGHT? NT DOMAIN.
AND ALSO, UH, UH, BECAUSE THIS IS IN THE LIMITS, OR DTM MCLENNAN CHISHOLM, UH, WITH THEIR DEVELOPER AGREEMENT WITH THAT CITY, THERE WAS SOME ISSUES IN THERE ABOUT SALES TAX.
AND THEY, THEY'RE RECOGNIZING THIS ORDER THAT THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT WE COULD AT SOME POINT IN TIME IN THE FUTURE.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE THERE COULD BE SOME SALES TAX COMING TO THE COUNTY THROUGH COUNTY ASSISTANCE DISTRICT.
THEY'LL TELL 'EM WHAT WE MIGHT USE 5, 10, 20 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD.
ARE YOU SATISFIED WITH THE NT DOMAIN CONDITIONS THAT WE HAVE IN PLACE HERE? THAT EIGHT MILES IS THE
THEY'D HAVE TO GO TO BREACH EITHER A WATER LINE OR A SEWER LINE FROM THE PROPERTY.
I MEAN, THERE, THERE'S SOMETHING WITHIN THAT DISTANCE.
THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO TYPE AND THEY'RE NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT RIGHT NOW.
BUT IF THEY HAD TO, THEY COULD.
THEY WON'T GO ALL THE WAY TO AMARILLO
WE WON'T, WE WON'T GO ALL THE WAY TO AMARILLO UNLESS TO COME BACK AND GET YOUR CONSENT CODE.
PETE WAS HERE ASKING ABOUT IT.
NO, I NOTICED IN READING, READING YOUR, UH, ONE AND TWO, UH, TWO THINGS IS YOU DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR COUNTY ROADS.
AND RAY TOLD ME THERE'S NO COUNTY ROADS IN THIS DISTRICT.
THERE'S NO MORE ROADS IN NUMBER TWO ONE, NUMBER TWO, I THINK.
BUT THERE IS 1 2 30 TO 39 IN THERE NOT READING THE MAP.
I HAVE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST TO BY NUMBER ONE THAT I'VE SENT.
I TURNED THAT AFFIDAVIT IN TWO YEARS AGO BECAUSE I WASN'T TOO SURE ABOUT, I'M STILL NOT TOO SURE ABOUT, BUT I'VE COVERED MYSELF ON THERE.
I'M NOT GONNA DISCUSS ANYTHING WITH ONE.
AND THE OTHER POINT IS, YOU'RE GOING TO CREATE A SEWAGE TREATMENT WITH, IN THIS DISTRICT.
WE'RE GONNA DEAL WITH THAT IN THE MORNING.
WELL, UM, I READ BOTH BOOKS AND I DON'T REMEMBER WHICH ONE I READ IT.
I, I, WE'RE DOING IT BACKWARDS.
WE'RE DOING IT BACKWARDS BECAUSE I THINK THE COMMISSIONER'S GONNA YEAH, WE'RE DOING TWO RIGHT NOW.
UNLESS, LET'S DO WITH THAT ONE.
UH, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION FROM THE COURT? ANY DISCUSSION FROM ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE THAT WANTS TO, UH, ADDRESS THIS SITUATION? COURT? IS IT LOCATED WHAT COMMUNITY VAN OF THE, JUST SO EVERYONE CAN SEE THAT THESE ARE AT THE NORTH END OF KAUFMAN COUNTY, RIGHT NEXT TO ROCKWELL COUNTY.
SO IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH THAT AREA, UM, BASICALLY THIS IS 2 0 5.
SO YOU, WHETHER YOU'RE COMING FROM FORNEY, YOU'RE COMING UP ON 5 48 OR FROM TERRELL, YOU'RE COMING UP ON 2 0 5.
UM, THE NEW FORNEY HIGH SCHOOL IS RIGHT HERE.
UH, DEVON SHIRE PROPERTY IS RIGHT HERE.
SO WE'RE JUST UP THE STREET FROM THEM.
UH, YOU SAID NO SEWER, UH, TREATMENT PLANT IN, YOU KNOW, LIKE FOR ONE.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE SEWER AND TWO, THE, IF THERE'S NO TREATMENT PLAN? NO, THE, THE PLANS FOR THE SEWER TREATMENT ON DISTRICT TWO IS TO BE SERVED BY THE TREATMENT PLANT ON DISTRICT ONE.
SO THE ACTUAL LOCATION OF THE TREATMENT IS ON DISTRICT ONE.
AND, AND, AND I, MAYBE I MISUNDERSTOOD YOUR QUESTION.
THEY'RE, THEY'RE MILES APART THOUGH.
THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE MILE, MILE ARE THEY'RE MILE APART.
THE REASON WE WERE DEALING WITH, WITH ONE, I WAS GONNA SAY THIS ONE IS, IS WE FILED FOR OUR APPLICATION, UH, IN THE NAME OF, OF, UH, IT'S GONNA GET CONVEYED TO FIRST FORCE SUPPLY DISTRICT ONE.
AND THEN THERE'S SOME, THERE'S SOME LANGUAGE IN OUR, UH, AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE OPERATION OF
BUT IT IS A JOINT PLANT SERVING THE LAND IN BOTH DISTRICTS.
MARILYN MAY THE GARDEN CO-OP, UM, I WAS WANTING TO TO KNOW IF MAYBE WE COULD GET A COPY OF, UM, THOSE PLANS BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT WE DO ALL OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN THE COUNTY.
[00:35:01]
OF WATER EDUCATION RIGHT NOW.ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? UH, OKAY.
I NEED A MOTION TO EXIT THE PUBLIC HEARING AND ENTER BACK INTO THE REGULAR MEETING MOTION MADE BY COMM LER.
MR. JACKSON, WE'RE NOW BACK INTO, UH, A REGULAR MEETING.
UH, NOW I NEED A MOTION TO GRANT PETITION CREATING AND ESTABLISHING THE LEAD AND BETTER FRESHWATER SUPPLY DISTRICT NUMBER TWO IN KAMAN COUNTY.
ANY DISCUSSION ABOUT THAT? GET A MOTION AND A SECOND.
I HAVE A MOTION FROM COMMISSIONER CLARK SECOND, OR FROM COMMISSIONER OWLER.
NOW, ANY DISCUSSION? THIS IS ALSO APPOINTING THESE TEMPORARY PEOPLE THAT YOU YES, SIR.
THAT YOUR NAMES WERE READ ON GOT.
AND YOU HAVE THEIR NAMES IN THERE AND YOU KNOW THAT.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? UH, IF NOT, UH, ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
SO, UH, FRESHWATER SUPPLY AND DISTRICT NUMBER TWO OF KAUFFMAN COUNTY, THE LED BETTER FRESHWATER, UH, IS CREATED.
NOW WE'RE GONNA GO THROUGH THIS SAME THING WITH, UH, UH, DISTRICT NUMBER ONE.
SO I NEED A MOTION TO EXIT THE REGULAR MEETING AND INTO A PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING, UH, CREATION OF LEDBETTER FRESHWATER SUPPLY DISTRICT NUMBER ONE, MADE BY COMMISSIONER LER, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON.
ALRIGHT, NOW WE'RE IN THE PUBLIC HEARING ABOUT NUMBER ONE.
NOW, YOU TALKED WITH THE SEWER PLAN BECAUSE IT HAS TO DO, HAS TO DO WITH ONE.
AND COMMISSIONER, LET'S GO AHEAD.
REALLY, THE ONLY QUESTION I HAD ON EITHER ISSUE WAS THAT THE ROADS AND THE, THE SEWER TREATMENT, I DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING IN.
SO JUST TO GO BACK TO THE MAP AGAIN, UM, DISTRICT NUMBER ONE IS THE PROPERTY RIGHT HERE, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY A MILE AND A HALF DOWN.
UM, TWO, UM, IT'S ESSENTIALLY, UH, THE MAJORITY OF THE, THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN ROCK OR LIN COUNTY.
IT'S ON THE NORTH BOUNDARY AS WELL.
AND, UH, IT LIGHTS CONTINGENT TO, UM, FM 5 48 ALONG THIS, UH, THIS, THIS, UH, BASICALLY SOUTH SECTION OF ROAD.
THERE ARE SOME, UH, ROAD THAT WE, WE WE'LL BE IMPROVING ADJACENT TO THE PROPERTY ALONG HERE AS WELL AS HERE.
AND, AND BRIAN, UM, COULD PROBABLY GO INTO MORE DETAIL ON THAT, BUT MAYBE WE HAVE A, A BETTER MAP THAT SHOW THAT.
UM, SO THIS IS BASICALLY THE REFERENCE TO, UH, WHERE THE PROPERTY'S AT.
AND JUST FOR YOUR SAKE, I KNOW YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH SOME TYPE OF A, SOME TYPE OF A LOCATION OF THESE, UH, OF THIS OUTER LOOP ROAD DISCUSSION.
THESE ARE JUST DRAWN ON THE MAP AS TWO ALTERNATES THAT'S BEEN, UM, BEEN, BEEN FORWARDED.
AND I BELIEVE, UM, I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THAT'S BEEN LOCKED DOWN, BUT HERE'S BRUSHY CREEK AND I THINK IT'S EITHER SIDE OF
SO THIS KIND GIVES YOU RELATIVE RELATIONSHIP TO WHERE, WHERE THOSE ROADS WILL BE IN RELATIONSHIP TO THESE, UH, DISTRICTS.
AND SO YOU THAT PUT PLAN ON TWO IS RIGHT.
THERE'LL BE A, A FORCE ME THAT WILL RUN FROM THIS PROPERTY TO A TREATMENT PLANT.
SO IT, IT IS ABOUT A MILE AND A HALF APART, WHICH IS REASONABLE OFF OFFITE RIGHT WAY.
UM, NOT YET AS PART OF THE, THE PROCESS.
AND WE, WHEN WE, WE FURTHER THE PLANS WITH DONE SO.
UM, SO THAT'S, THAT'S THE, UM, THE MAN IS THERE.
DO YOU WANT ME TO SHOW THE, THE OTHER MAP AS WELL RIGHT HERE? SORRY.
UM, THIS, THIS AGAIN IS, IS OUR CURRENTLY PLANNED, UM, MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITY.
THIS IS 5 48 HERE AND THERE'S A ROAD, UM, IS THAT CALLED WHAT'S ROAD ARE WE'RE LOOKING INTO UP HERE OFF THE, UH, SMITH ROAD.
AND WE'RE TAKING THROUGH THE PROPERTY CONNECTING HERE.
UM, AND THERE'S UM, SOME UPGRADES TO NE ROAD THAT WE'RE WE'LL BE DOING HERE AS WELL AS UM, UM, CALVERT ROAD NOT HERE AS WELL.
UM, AND THEN A LOT OF ROADS INTERNAL TO THE DEVELOPMENT OBVIOUSLY.
UM, SO THIS, THIS IS THE, UH, JUST THE PLAN HERE.
THIS, THIS DISTRICT BOARD, SO THIS IS 5 48 HERE.
SO EACH OF THOSE 80 CDS, ABOUT 40, 50, 60
[00:40:01]
ACRES, THEY VARY.THEY VARY, THEY VARY JUST EACH ONE OF IN A PHASE.
THEY, THEY'LL BE A PHASES AND, AND BASICALLY THOSE ARE JUST, UM, UM, SOME OF 'EM HAVE DIFFERENT, UM, SOME WOULD HAVE A LITTLE BIT LARGER LOTS AND SOME MIGHT HAVE MORE LOTS.
AND THIS IS, WE'RE TRYING TO DO 5 48 HERE.
THOUSAND AND 98 ACRES ALTOGETHER.
AND HOW MUCH OF IT IS IN THE DISTRICT IS 9 98.
JUST TO POINT OUT, THIS IS WHAT COUNTY LINE, OKAY.
SO ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON, UH, JUST SLIDE DISTRICT NUMBER ONE? THIS IS THE, THE PROPERTY.
ANYONE FROM THE AUDIENCE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? NORTH BOUNDARY.
AND YOUR MAINTENANCE FOR WATER FOR NUMBER ONE IS THROUGH MY POINT, RIGHT? YES.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE COURT? ALRIGHT, UH, I HAVE NO QUESTION THAT A MOTION TO EXIT THE PUBLIC HEARING.
I'VE GOT SOMETHING YOU MAY WANT TO, OKAY.
I WON'T GIVE YOU MY WHOLE SPIEL ABOUT ALL THE THINGS WE DID.
WE, WE BASICALLY COPIED WHAT WE DID ON TWO WITH ONE.
AND, BUT WHAT I DID WANT TO DO IS MAKE SURE I WENT OVER WITH YOU GUYS WHAT WE INCLUDED IN THAT AGREEMENT THAT'S ATTACHED TO THE ORDER, THE, THE AGREEMENT REGARDING THE OPERATION OF THE DISTRICT.
BECAUSE IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN THE ONE FOR TWO.
WE JUST HAD A LIMITATION ON OUR POWER LIMIT DOMAIN.
ON NUMBER ONE, WE HAVE THE LIMITATION ON OUR POWER DOMAIN.
SAME ONE WE'VE AGREED TO MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE COUNTY.
I THINK IT'S FOR OUR CONSTABLE 300 SQUARE FEET OF OFFICE SPACE WITHIN THE PROJECT PRIOR TO THE 500 HOME BEING BUILT.
AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE A PROVISION THERE THAT SAYS THAT WITHOUT THE COUNTY'S APPROVAL, PRIOR APPROVAL, WE WILL NOT PROVIDE WASTEWATER SERVICE TO ANY TRACTOR LAND OTHER THAN WHAT'S CURRENTLY IN THE DISTRICT.
SOME PROPERTY THAT THEY OWN THAT'S OUTSIDE THE DISTRICT PROPERTY.
IF THERE HAPPENS TO BE PROPERTY INSIDE THE CORPORATE LIMITS OF MCLENDON CHISHOLM AND IT IS ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL BY THE CITY FOR OTHER LAND THAT THEY BUY, THAT'S CONTINUOUS.
SO I DIDN'T WANT TO ADDRESS WITH YOU LOT THERE BEEN SOME CONCERNS ABOUT PUTTING SEW TREATMENT PLANT.
I, I NOTICED THE ETJ OF P CHISHOLM COMES DOWN INTO YOUR AREA BIT TOO.
HAVE YOU DISCUSSED THAT WITH THEM? WELL, ALL OF THIS PROPERTY IS IN THE ETJ.
OH, THE WHOLE THING? WELL THE, ALL THE LAND THAT'S IN THIS DISTRICT.
THE CITY CITY, THEIR POPULATION DOESN'T, WELL IF YOU VOLUNTARILY ANNEX INTO THEIR ETJ AS LONG AS YOU'RE CONTIGUOUS.
YES, YES, YOU CAN, YOU CAN ANNEX IT AND YOU CAN GO OUTSIDE THEIR, THEIR WHATEVER, THEIR LIMITATIONS.
THAT'S ALL PART OF THE CITY'S ON BOARD WITH THAT SITUATION.
UH, NOW MEETING, I NOW A MOTION TO EXIT THE PUBLIC HEARING AND BACK INTO THE REGULAR MEETING MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER SECOND BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON.
WE ARE NOW BACK AND THE REGULAR HEARING, UH, I'M OPEN TO A MOTION TO GRANT THIS PETITION CREATING AND ESTABLISHING A LEADBETTER FRESHWATER SUPPLY DISTRICT NUMBER ONE OF KALIN COUNTY.
I JUST WANT, I WANT TO ASK JOHN, YOU SAID YOU HAD, YOU LOOKED AT THIS? I HAVE.
THE ONLY THING THAT WAS IN MY PACKET WAS THE, UH, WAS THE TWO PAGE LETTER FROM MR. GRAHAM.
AND, AND THEY HAD, UH, CALLED MY OFFICE EITHER ON THURSDAY OR FRIDAY, BUT I WAS GOING TO GIVE HIM MY CARD AND ASK HIM TO EMAIL OVER THE ATTACHMENTS SO I COULD FAMILIARIZE MYSELF THE DEVELOPER SCREEN.
NOW I'VE SPOKEN WITH COMMISSIONER CLARK ABOUT NUMBER TWO BEFORE, SO TO THE EXTENT OF THE CONVERSATION AS MUCH THE SAME EXCEPT FOR THESE POINTS THAT YOU SHOULD BE PRETTY, PRETTY FAST.
BUT I'D BE, I'D BE GLAD TO LOOK AT WHATEVER WE NEED TO TODAY AND AND IF THERE'S CHANGES IN THE OKAY.
AND WE'RE HAPPY TO, IF YOU COULD ADOPT IT SUBJECT TO JOHN'S REVIEW AND APPROVAL, THAT WOULD, BUT FOR BOTH OF 'EM, THAT WOULD WORK FOR US.
I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT.
I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THAT
[00:45:01]
PROBLEM.UH, MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER LL SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON TO, UH, GRANT THE PETITION, CREATING, ESTABLISHING THE
UH, I DON'T THINK WE DID THIS ON THE FIRST ONE, BUT WE NEED A MOTION.
WE NEED THE MOTION TO APPOINT THOMAS SERVING ALICE BOX, JOAN PIPINGS, RETTA SANDERS, AND BETTY WASHINGTON AS TEMPORARY SUPERVISORS OF THE LED BETTER WISH WATER DISTRICT NUMBER ONE OF COUNTY MADE BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON.
SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BILL.
OH, WE DIDN'T TAKE A VOTE ON THE CREATING THE VOTE ON TO GRANT THE PETITION CREATED ESTABLISHING AYE.
EVERYBODY IN FAVOR OF THAT? AYE.
WE'VE GONE THROUGH ALL TOOK A VOTE.
UH, THAT'S ALL MARILYN MAY TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER APPROVED FINAL REPORT ON RECYCLING DROP OFF GRANT AND REQUESTING TO APPLY FOR DON.
GEORGE CAME BY, SAID THAT EVERYBODY IN FAVORING THAT MOTION SAY, AYE.
THERE WAS ONE RIGHT THERE BEFORE THAT, THAT JORDAN COME BACK AND HE WANTED TABLE.
WAIT, WHO MADE THE MOTION? THANK YOU.
UH, MARILYN MAY TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER APPROVING FINAL REPORT ON RECYCLING DROPOFF GRANT AND REQUESTING TO APPLY FOR NEW, UH, NCP CO GRANT COUNTY ENVIRON STICKERS TRYING TO SAVE YOU MONEY.
OH, I'VE GOT, I'VE GOT MORE BAGS BACK HERE.
WE'RE GONNA LEAVE SOME OF THIS STUFF HERE.
ALRIGHT, YOU GUYS CAN PASS THIS OUT.
UM, WE JUST WANTED TO COME IN AND TALK ABOUT THE GRANT THAT WE JUST FINISHED.
AND THEN I WANTED TO, UM, TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE, UH, THE TIRE GRANT THAT WE FINISHED UP.
HAVE SOME GREAT PICTURES TO SHOW YOU.
AND THEN, UH, AND THEN I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT, UH, PUTTING IN FOR SOME MORE GRANTS BECAUSE IT IS TIME AGAIN.
SO FIRST OF ALL, ON THE, UH, COMAN COUNTY RECYCLING EDUCATION GRANT THAT WE JUST FINISHED UP, IT WAS FOR $213,350 IN FUNDING THAT, UM, CAME TO THE COUNTY.
UM, IT WAS A CHALLENGE BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT WE HAD TO PULL THAT TOGETHER REALLY, UM, FAST BACK IN, IN APRIL, BUT WE ACCOMPLISHED A, A HUGE AMOUNT FOR THE COUNTY.
WE HAVE, UM, NOW PUT IN THREE DROP OFF CENTERS.
ONE IS AT PRECINCT, THREE BEHIND THE SUB COURTHOUSE, UM, ANOTHER ONE IN PRECINCT TWO AT THE MAINTENANCE BARN.
AND THEN WE HAVE A BRAND NEW ONE THAT'S OPENED AT PRECINCT THREE OVER, UM, AT 1100 AIRPORT ROAD.
AND THAT'S ALSO THE SITE OF OUR RECYCLING, NEW RECYCLING CENTER.
[00:50:01]
UM, PLANNING TO PUT IN ANOTHER SITE IN PRECINCT.UM, SHE'S GOT THIS WRONG THREE PRECINCT THREE OVER AT COUNTY ROAD 4 29, AND THAT WILL BE, UM, THAT'S THE SITE OF I THINK THE FUTURE PRECINCT THREE BARN.
AND WE'RE GONNA BE TRYING TO WORK, UH, WITH COMMISSIONER JACKSON ON, ON PUTTING THAT IN WHEN HE'S, UH, READY TO, TO START WORKING ON THAT SITE.
UM, IN, AT THE PRECINCT THREE RECYCLING FACILITY, WE NOW HAVE TWO EVALUATORS, A PORTABLE RECYCLING TRAILER THAT WE CAN TAKE OUT TO SCHOOLS.
WE'LL HAVE IT AT HERITAGE JUBILEE.
UM, AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE A NEW FORKLIFT.
WE HAVE SOME COLLECTION TRAILERS ALSO.
WE GOT AN F-150, UM, TRUCK THAT WILL PULL THE TRAILERS, UM, WHERE WE GO AROUND AND DO ALL OF OUR SERVICING.
AND THEN WE GOT A BOX TRUCK WITH A LIFT GATE THAT, UM, WE ARE GONNA BE ABLE TO DELIVER, DELIVER OUR MATERIALS RIGHT TO THE RECYCLING CENTER.
AND IT'S JUST GONNA BE SO MUCH MORE COST EFFECTIVE.
AND THEN WE'VE GOT, WE'VE GOT SOME SCALE SO IT CAN MAKE SURE THAT THE ACCURACY THAT WE GET PAID FOR THE MATERIALS, UM, ACCURATELY WHEN WE TAKE THOSE TO THE RECYCLING CENTER.
SO THAT WAS A HUGE, UM, JUST A, A REALLY GREAT FACILITY THAT WE HAVE AND WE WANT YOU TO ALL TO COME.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE AN OPEN HOUSE AND WE'LL, WE'LL GIVE YOU THAT DATE, UM, LATER.
AND THEN ON OUR RECYCLING EDUCATION, WE PUT TOGETHER, UM, A TAGLINE, KEEP KAUFMAN COUNTY CLEAN AND GREEN, AND YOU GOT, UM, THAT LOGO ON THE BAGS AND THEN ON YOUR LITTLE STICKER.
AND WE'VE DELIVERED MORE THAN 65, UM, EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS THROUGH DRAFT THE COUNTY.
WE'VE BEEN LOTS AND LOTS OF PLACES TALKING TO LOTS OF PEOPLE.
UM, WE'VE ALSO HELD SEVERAL RECYCLING EVENTS.
WE HAD A PAPER SHREDDING EVENT, WE'VE HAD SEVERAL ELECTRONIC RECYCLING.
WE HAD ATHLETIC SHOE COLLECTION AND THEN THE TIRE COLLECTION ALSO.
AND WE'VE DISTRIBUTED, UM, INFORMATION.
WE'VE GOT KIOSKS, WE'LL HAVE KIOSKS SET TWO OF THE RECYCLING SITES.
WE'VE PUT IN LOTS OF ADVERTISEMENTS AND, AND, UM, WHAT WE'VE ENDED UP SEEING IN THIS EIGHT MONTH TIMEFRAME IS 417, UH, 0.95 TONS OF MATERIAL THAT WERE DIVERTED FROM THE LANDFILLS.
UM, AN AVERAGE MONTHLY OF 52.24 TONS AND THAT WAS A SAVINGS OF OVER $22,000 IN DISPOSAL COSTS HELP GOING OUT OF THE COUNTY INSTEAD OF IT GOING THROUGH A LANDFILL.
UM, WE'VE PUT OUT ABOUT 5,000 PIECES OR PACKETS OF INFORMATION.
I DON'T THINK WE'VE MADE THIS MANY PACKETS OF INFORMATION EVER.
EVERYBODY, EVERY GROUP, GARDEN CLUB, ROTARY CLUB, LIONS CLUB HAS WANTED US TO BE THERE TO TALK.
SO I THINK IT HAS BEEN AN EXTREMELY, UM, SUCCESSFUL GRANT THAT WILL CARRY ON.
YEAH, WE'VE GOT MATERIALS THAT WE'LL BE ABLE TO CARRY ON WITH THAT.
I DON'T KNOW IF EVERY, ALL OF THE, UM, COMMISSIONERS HAVE SEEN THIS PARTICULAR SITE, BUT WE WENT, WE HAD 11 TRAILERS, UM, IN THIS TIRE RECYCLING PROGRAM.
AND I JUST WANNA SAY THAT THIS WAS ACTUALLY, UM, MANAGED BY RW BECK, BUT THE GRANT WAS, WAS ACTUALLY, UM, FORMULATED BECAUSE OF THE, THE PROBLEMS AT THIS SITE THAT WE HAD SEVERAL YEARS AGO THAT WE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE CALL.
AND THEY, UM, ACTUALLY PUT THIS GRANT MONEY TOGETHER 'CAUSE OF THAT.
AND WHAT, UM, THOSE 11 TRAILERS WERE ABLE TO COLLECT APPROXIMATELY 16,500 TIRES OUT OF THE COUNTY.
UM, IT WAS A SAVINGS OF TO THE COUNTY OF $13,200 AN ENTIRE DISPOSAL.
AND THIS PARTICULAR SITE REALLY SHOWS THE, THE WORK THAT WAS DONE BECAUSE THERE WERE A HUGE AMOUNT OF TIRES AT THAT SITE.
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT'S LEFT, I THINK SHE'S GOT ABOUT A THOUSAND LEFT, WHICH IS AMAZING TO ME, BUT THERE'S STILL A THOUSAND.
SHE'S DON'T BRING 10 OF 'EM EVER CLEAN UP.
BUT YEAH, WE TALKED TO, WE'VE TALKED TO HER ABOUT THAT.
DID THOSE TIRES ACTUALLY TIRED? THAT TREE ACTUALLY GREW UP THROUGH THAT TIRE.
THEY'VE BEEN THERE A LONG, SHE RAISED, SHE RAISED CHILDREN AND EVERYTHING AND
[00:55:01]
THAT WAS A VERY, UH, I THINK A VERY UNHEALTHY SITUATION BECAUSE OF THE ANIMALS AND YEAH, THEY'VE BEEN THERE A LONG, LONG TIME.SO, BUT THAT WASN'T ALL THAT WE DID.
I MEAN, WE DID THAT PROPERTY AND THAT WAS THE ONE YOU COULD VISUALLY REALLY SEE, BUT WE CLEANED UP TIRES OUT OF CEDAR CREEK LAKE THAT WERE A HINDRANCE BECAUSE WHEN THE WATER LEVEL GOES DOWN, THE MOSQUITOES WERE HORRIBLE AND THOSE CITIZENS WERE HAVING TO DEAL WITH THAT.
SO WE GOT SEVERAL THOUSAND OUT OF, OUT OF, UH, THE LAKE.
UM, ALSO ALL OF YOUR CLEANUPS IN MAY.
I THINK THE ONLY CLEANUP WAS, WAS THE, UM, THE YOURS, THE PRECINCT ONE THAT THE TRAILER HAD BEEN SENT RIGHT BEFORE WE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE GRANT FUNDING.
BUT EVERYBODY ELSE, I GOT ALL OF THEIR TIRES FROM THE CLEANUP SO THAT YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANY OF THAT.
SO I THINK THAT IT WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL.
DID, DID WE, DID WE GIVE THE AMOUNT OF TIRES WE PREDICTED WE WOULD REMEMBER? WE COMMITTED TO SO MANY TIRES.
YOU GOT ANY NUMBERS ON THAT? I, I DON'T HAVE EXACTLY THE NUMBERS YET.
I KIND OF PREDICTED WHAT I THOUGHT MIGHT BE IN THE TRUCKS, BUT, UM, WE GAVE THEM WHAT THEY ALLOWED US TO HAVE AND THEY ACTUALLY GOT US A COUPLE MORE TRAILERS BECAUSE ONE OF THE OTHER COUNTIES DIDN'T USE THE TRAILERS.
UM, SO WE GOT THEIR TRAILERS, SO WE GOT MORE THAN WHAT WE WERE ALLOTTED.
SO I THINK THEY WERE VERY HAPPY.
AND THEN THE PICTURES SHOWED UP A STORY RIGHT THERE.
THEY WERE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT.
AND I THINK WE ESTIMATED THERE WERE 10,000 POWERS THERE AND THEY MUST HAVE BEEN 16.
WELL, THEY WERE ABOUT 16, BUT THEN AGAIN, WE GOT THOSE, WE GOT ONE OR TWO EXTRA TRAILERS.
I MEAN, I WAS REALLY EXCITED THAT THEY CALLED AND SAID, COULD YOU TAKE THEM? AND WE, WE HAD LOTS OF IT'S UNBELIEVABLE DIFFERENCE OUT THERE.
I APPRECIATE ALL YOUR WELL, THANK YOU.
UM, THEN, UM, I WANTED TO JUST BRING UP SOMETHING THAT, THAT IS COMING UP IS OUR NEW GRANT CYCLE WITH NORTH NORTH TEXAS, UH, COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS.
AND WE WILL HAVE TO SUBMIT APPLICATIONS BY OCTOBER THE EIGHTH.
I'M ALREADY WORKING ON, UM, AN ILLEGAL DUMPING GRANT.
UM, I'M WORKING WITH THE ABATEMENT OFFICERS OVER AT THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.
THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A, A GRANT FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF CYCLES AND HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO.
SO I THINK THAT MAYBE IF WE RIDE IT, THEY'LL BE ABLE TO, TO GET THAT.
UM, THERE'S NEVER A GUARANTEE, BUT THEY NEED A NEW TRUCK, UM, TO REPLACE THE OLDEST TRUCK.
IT'S GOT A LOT OF MILES ON IT.
AND THEN WE NEED MORE EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS.
WE NEED TO GET OUT AND DO ANOTHER, YOU KNOW, KIND OF BUMP IT UP A LITTLE BIT.
WE HAVEN'T HAD A LOT OF, UH, EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS AND A PROGRAM ON THAT FOR A WHILE.
THE OTHER GRANT THAT I'D LIKE TO LOOK INTO IS THE 20 YEAR SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN HAS, UM, 12 YEARS ON IT NOW.
SO IT, IT MIGHT BE TIME TO LOOK INTO, UH, UPDATING THAT.
UM, SO I'M GONNA LOOK INTO THAT AND SEE WHAT, WHAT THAT MIGHT TAKE.
AND THEN THERE'S, UM, AN OPPORTUNITY.
THERE'S 84 CUBIC YARD, UH, CONTAINERS.
THEY'RE TRASH CONTAINERS THAT ARE AT, UH, ONE OF THE OTHER LOCATIONS THAT GOT THESE IN AGREEMENT, BUT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO USE THEIR CITY.
AND SO I'M TRYING TO COME UP WITH A WAY WE, WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO TAKE THOSE CONTAINERS AND USE THEM BECAUSE RURALLY, WE COULD PUT CONTAINERS OUT IF WE HAD A WAY TO MOVE THEM OR PICK THEM UP.
I, I GUESS I JUST WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU, UM, OR YOU KNOW, GO AHEAD AND ALLOW ME TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON THIS, UM, BECAUSE THE TIMING WILL BE, YOU KNOW, IT'S IN THE NEXT MONTH OR MONTH AND A HALF THAT WE'LL NEED TO, I THINK EVERYONE'S GOTTA BE GREATLY PLEASED ABOUT THE, UH, AMOUNT OF GRANTS YOU GOT OVER 200,000 BEFORE AND, UH, ESPECIALLY THOSE TIRE RENTS BECAUSE THEY MAKE SUCH A BIG IMPACT, A PHYSICAL IMPACT.
UH, I'M REALLY PLEASED WITH WHAT ALL YOU DID OUT THERE WITH THOSE PEOPLE.
AND UH, OBVIOUSLY THEY DON'T A QUEUE.
WE'LL TRY TO DO SOMETHING BY GETTING THOSE OUTTA THE WAY.
BUT, UH, ANY QUESTIONS FOR MARILYN? WHY DON'T WE APPLY FOR TWO NEW PICKS? ONE, WHY DON'T NOW WHY DON'T WE APPLY FOR TWO NEW PICKS? ENVIRONMENTAL IS BRAND NEW ONE BRAND NEW, NEW.
YEAH, I KNOW THAT THE OLDEST ONE REALLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
UM, I I'M JUST DOING WHAT THEY'RE REQUESTING.
YOU DIDN'T MENTION THE CLEANUP ON 40 42, THE CLEANUP.
WHICH ONE? THIS, THIS NEW PLAN.
I'M GONNA, OH, I WAS KIND OF TRYING TO GET YOU TO LET DO THE GRANTS
[01:00:01]
AND THEN, AND THEN WHEN YOU SAY THAT, I'LL, I'LL DO WE NEED A MOTION IS WRITTEN ON THE AGENDA OR WE NEED A MOTION TO, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NEED AN EMOTION, A MOTION THAT I, WHEN THIS ALL GEARS UP, I KIND OF NEED TO KNOW THAT.YES, YOU WILL SUPPORT THOSE AND I CAN GET, YEAH, THE MOTION IS TO APPROVE THE FINAL RECORDER ON THE RECYCLING DROP OFF GRANT AND TO APPLY FOR THE NEW COG GRANT FOR ENVIRONMENTAL CO.
UH, COMMISSIONER JACKSON, MAKE THAT MOTION, UH, SECOND AND BACK.
MR. ER, UH, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL IN FAVORS? THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT JOB.
I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WATER.
WE ARE GETTING INVOLVED IN WATER AND I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE LEE HALBERT AND HE IS GONNA BE WORKING WITH ME ON WATER.
UM, WE'VE GOTTEN A LITTLE BIT OF GRANT MONEY, NOT, NOT A LOT, BUT SOME FROM, UH, TCEQ THROUGH THIS WATERSHED, CEDAR CREEK LAKE WATERSHED, UH, PLAN.
AND WE'RE HOPING THAT, THAT WE'LL GET SOME MORE TO SUPPORT A PERSON.
SO, UM, LEE HAS COME ON AND WE'VE GOT SEVERAL CLEANUPS IN SEPTEMBER.
ONE IS GOING TO BE, AS COMMISSIONER DELLER SAID, WE'RE GONNA CLEAN UP COUNTY ROAD 40 42.
AND THERE IS INFORMATION, WE'RE GONNA LEAVE SOME OF THESE OUT ON THE TABLE, SO I HOPE THAT EVERYBODY PICKS THEM UP.
BUT WE'LL BE MEETING OUT THERE AT THE, HOW DO YOU SAY THAT? OSA BAPTIST CHURCH.
AND UM, THEN WE'LL GO AND CLEAN UP AND THEN, UM, TART REACH.
THE WATER DISTRICT ALWAYS HAS A PARTY AFTERWARDS AND RADIO DISNEY IS GONNA BE THERE THIS YEAR.
SO WE THINK WE'RE GONNA REALLY PULL A LOT OF OF PEOPLE OUT 'CAUSE OF THAT.
THAT'S A REALLY FUN, FUN THING FOR THE COMMUNITY.
SO WE'LL BE OUT AT, UM, TOM FINLEY PARK, UM, AFTER THE CLEANUP, THE MOBILE AREA.
AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE OUR REGULAR COMA COUNTY, TRINITY RIVER TRASH BASH.
AND WE WILL STILL CLEAN UP FM 30, UM, 39, UM, IN CRANDALL AND COMBINE.
WE MEET AT THE HIGH SCHOOL AND THAT'S GONNA BE THE 19TH.
UM, I WANTED TO JUST MENTION, THERE'S A WATERSHED, TEXAS WATERSHED STEWARDS PROGRAM THAT IS GONNA BE AUGUST THE 25TH THIS WEEK.
UM, ACTUALLY WEDNESDAY, I GUESS WEDNESDAY TOMORROW.
AND, UM, THAT'S AT THE COFFMAN COUNTY LIBRARY.
WE'RE AN EIGHT TO FOUR IF ANYBODY HAS AN INTEREST IN THAT.
AND WE ARE PUTTING TOGETHER A PROGRAM FOR THE SCHOOLS.
THERE'S GONNA BE A CD AND UM, THIS COLORING BOOK THAT GOES ALONG WITH THAT.
AND THIS WILL GO OUT TO ALL OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS IN THE WATERSHED.
SO WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA GO THROUGH FROM ROCKWALL COUNTY, HENDERSON COUNTY, DANZA COUNTY OVER AT WILLS POINT.
AND THEN THE, THE WHOLE, UH, COFFMAN COUNTY.
AND THIS, UH, TRINITY, YOU KNOW, WE, WE USED TO FURNISH OUR TRAILER FOR TRAINING DASH, UH, THAT TRAILER NOW IS BEING USED BY THE SHERIFF AND THEY CLEAN UP.
WANT NEED TO CONTACT THEM BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA NEED THAT TRAILER.
UM, THE SHERIFF TAKES TRUSTEES AND HE USES OUR TRAILER.
WHO IS THE CONTACT OF THERE? IS IT THIS SERGEANT VALENTINE? THERE WAS A, COULD YOU CALL FOR I'LL, I'LL CALL.
AND THEN THE, I'LL CALL, I'LL I'LL GET IT FOR YOU.
DID WE EVER TAKE A VOTE ON THAT MARYANNE TO UH, ACCEPT HER? UH, I THINK WE DID.
UH, SOUNDS LIKE IT'S BEEN VERY, UH, BUSY AND
MAY I ASK SOMETHING? WHERE Y'ALL, THOSE TOWERS COME FROM? THAT'S A LOT OF TIME.
DID YOU, DID YOU SEE THE PICTURE? NO SIR.
I HAVE THEM TO SHOW THE PICTURE.
THERE IS A TREE THROWN BETWEEN TWO TIRES AND THE TREE IS TAKEN.
THIS IS JUST ONE, THIS IS A, A PROPERTY THAT A FAMILY GOT DUMPED ON.
AND SO THAT SHOWS YOU, OH MY LORD.
YEAH, THAT SHOWS YOU THE DIFFERENCE.
THE SECOND PAGE IS A TREE GROWING UP BETWEEN TWO TIRES.
THERE'S STILL A THOUSAND LEFT OUT THERE.
WELL, DID PEOPLE JUST DUMP ON THERE OR SOMEBODY? THERE WAS A, I THINK ONCE THEY SEE 'EM PILED UP THERE, EVERYBODY JUST THROWS 'EM IN THERE.
WELL THIS WAS, I THINK AN INTENTIONAL, IT WAS BACK WHEN TCQ WAS GIVEN AT $2 AND IT WAS A MAN THAT THEY WENT ON VACATION AND THIS GUY HAD ALL THIS, HE
[01:05:01]
DUMPED THEM WHILE THEY WERE ON VACATION AND LEFT TOWN.UH, JOHNNY COUNTRYMAN TO PRESENT THE TREASURER'S MONTHLY REPORT FOR JULY.

SECOND BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON.
YOU WANNA DO THIS, JUDGE? THANK YOU JOHNNY.
T THIRD, THE EIGHT POINT USING OUR IN OUR BUDGET.
UH, MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER DOWER TO, UH, APPROVE THE, UH, 2010 T-C-D-R-S PLAN.
DO I HAVE A SECOND? SECOND BACK.
JACK, IS THIS YOU? WE DISCUSSION? CONSIDER ADVERTISING A BID FOR ANNUAL CONTRACT FOR INMATE FOR PRESCRIPTION MEDICINE FOR THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.
I'VE GOT THAT ONE AND ONE BEFORE THAT.
OH, MISCELLANEOUS CAMPBELL FILM.
I'M SORRY TO DISCUSS, CONSIDER DONATING MISCELLANEOUS CAMERAS AND FILM TO THE KAUFFMAN COUNTY CHILDREN'S SHELTER FOR SECTION, UH, 2 6 3 0.152 OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
YOU'VE DONE THAT ONE TOO? YES, SIR.
BUT YOU, IF YOU'RE AWARE OF, UH, FROM TIME TO TIME, DEPARTMENTS HAVE SURPLUS PROPERTY TO DISPOSE OF.
UH, SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT HAD SOME, UH, POLAROID INCIDENT CAMERAS AND OFFICER, THE TECHNOLOGY, OLD TECHNOLOGY, UH, THAT REPLACED BY VISIBLE CAMERAS.
I CALLED AROUND, COULDN'T FIND ANYBODY THAT HAD ANY INTEREST IN THOSE CAMERAS.
AND THEN SO HAPPENED THAT, SO THE CHILD CHILDREN'S SHELTER CAME BY AND THAT'S A REAL GOOD TOOL.
THEY SAID THAT WHEN A CHILD COMES IN, THEY TAKE A PICTURE RIGHT THEN OF THE CHILD.
AND UH, SO THEY HAVE HAVE A PICTURE OF THAT CHILD CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS IN THE RUNWAY OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE, RATHER THAN HAVING TO DOWNLOAD SOMETHING, THEY'VE GOT A PICTURE RIGHT THERE.
SO IT'S A GOOD, GOOD AREA THAT TO GO MAKE THOSE CAMERAS TO, AND THAT PROVISION OF GOVERNMENT CODE ALLOWS TO DO THAT.
I'M NOT SURE THEY'RE MAKING THAT ANYMORE.
IF YOU LEAVE THAT BILL, YOU'RE PROBABLY BAD SHAPE.
THAT COULD, I THINK IT WOULD BE A VERY GOOD TOOL, FOLKS.
AND I MAKE A RECOMMENDATION MOVE.
I HEAR A MOTION ABOUT THE NOT DONATING THAT MISCELLANEOUS CAMERAS OF FILM MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER ER, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER JACKSON.
ALL IN FAVOR SAY A A JACK, CAN I BRING ALL I KNOW THAT I'VE GONE DIGITAL, CAN I BRING ALL MY REGULAR FILM OUT TO YOU? YES, SIR.
MAY, MAY GET GEORGE
I'M NOW TO DISCUSSING CONSIDER ADVERTISING A FOR THE ANNUAL CONTRACT FOR INMATE PRESCRIPTION.
UH, I DO NOT HAVE ANY DATES FOR YOU TODAY.
WE'RE, I'M MEETING WITH THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE NEXT WEEK AND, AND WE'RE HAVING A DEMO FROM ONE POSSIBLE BIDDERS.
I'M SEEKING, SEEKING PERMISSION TO ADVERTISE THAT BID.
DO WE USUALLY GET QUITE A FEW PARTICIPANTS IN THIS? AND IN THE PAST WE'VE HAD HAD A COUPLE.
THERE'S A, THERE'S A MAJOR PLAYER THAT'S OUT THERE NOW THAT'S APPARENTLY GETTING A LOT OF THAT SURROUNDING COUNTY BUSINESS.
AND I UNDERSTAND THERE'S BEEN SOME DIFFERENT SAVINGS AND LIKE, EXPLORE THAT POSSIBILITY.
UH, YEAH, I DO, I I NEED A MOTION ON THAT.
FOR THE, UH, MOTION BY MR. JACKSON.
AND, UH, AND YOU KNOW WHAT THE MOTION IS?
[01:10:03]
AYE.YOU EXPECT US TO VOTE ON EVERY SINGLE VOTE? IT LOOKS GOOD ON PAPER
DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACCEPTING THE 2009 APPRAISAL ROAD AS THE 2009 TAX ROLL MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER CLARK TO ACCEPT THAT ROLE.
DO I HEAR ANY DISCUSSION? DO I HEAR A SECOND? SECOND BY COMMISSIONER LER? DO I HEAR TWO? IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? AYE, IF NOT ALL IN FAVOR SAY OF ACCEPTING THE COUNTY TAX OFFICE ROLE FOR 2009.
ALRIGHT, TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER AUTHORIZING COUNTY JUDGE TO SIGN A PERSONAL SERVICE CONTRACT WITH ANNE PORTER TO PERFORM CERTAIN CONSTRUCTION REPAIR, MAINTENANCE OR REMODELING OF PROPERTY FOR KAMAN COUNTY AND THE SUPERVISION OF SUCH WORK FOR THE YEAR OF SEPTEMBER 30TH, 2010.
AND TO GRANT EXEMP EXEMPTION FROM THE BID REQUIREMENTS UNDER LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 2 6 2 FOR PERSONAL SERVICE CONTRACT.
DO I HEAR ANY DISCUSSION ABOUT THAT? DO WE, WHAT WE DO EVERY YEAR? I, I, I HATE TO, I HATE TO SIGN A BLANK WHEN THERE'S BLANKS IN IT IN THE CONTRACT.
UH, AFTER PAGE ONE, I'M SORRY.
PAGE ONE COMPENSATION BLANK HOURS.
UH, WOULD YOU RATHER TABLE THAT UNTIL THE JUDGE COMES BACK AND TALK TO HIM ABOUT THAT? I DON'T WANT GO.
HE'LL PROBABLY MAKE BEFORE SIGNING IT.
UH, IF THE COURT HAS TO APPROVE, SHOULD, SHOULD SIGN A CONTRACT, MR. PORT.
WELL, THIS CONTRACT'S INCOMPLETE WITHOUT THE TED LINE.
YEAH, WHY DON'T, WHY DON'T WE JUST, WHY DON'T WE JUST TACKLE THAT AND, UH, LET, GIVE IT TO THE JUDGE, JEFF WHEN HE GETS BACK AND LET HIM LOOK AT IT.
LET ASK YOU THIS, LET AHEAD JUDGE THAT.
THE JUDGE DETERMINES THAT I THINK BEFORE, THAT'S WHAT I IS HE ON CONTRACT? YEAH.
SINCE IT'S A PERSONAL SERVICE CONTRACT.
IF YOU NEED YOUR OFFICE, UH, ENLARGE, WOULD YOU, YOU JUST CALL MR. PORTER AND HE DOES IT.
AND, UH, THERE'S SOME REASON WHY HE'S NOT AS AN EMPLOYEE BECAUSE, UH, OF THE AMOUNT OF THE JOHN FERRY, YOU KNOW, HE MAY GET TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THE, THE OLD, THE COURTROOMS OUT THERE THAT MAY EVERY SECOND OF HIS TIME OR THERE MAY BE TIMES WHEN HE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING FOR MONTHS.
BUT I THINK THAT'S THE REASON WHY IT WAS A PERSONAL SERVICE CONTRACT.
IF YOU WANT TO TABLE THAT AND TALK TO WAYNE ABOUT THAT WHEN HE GETS BACK, FINE WITH ME.
UH, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? WE HAVE A MOTION TO TABLE THAT AND DISCUSS THAT WITH THE COUNTY JUDGE WHEN HE GETS BACK, PUT ON THE AGENDA FOR NEXT.
AND COMMISSIONER FLORENCE? YES.
UH, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER EASEMENT OF RIGHT OF AGREEMENT WITH P EEC ON CAN ROAD 40 68.
UM, I, I GAVE A COPY TO UH, VA.
UM, IT APPEARS AS THOUGH, LET, LET ME PASS.
I'M KEEPING THE ORIGINAL BECAUSE FOR VOLUME AND PAGING YOU'LL NEED THE ORIGINAL, BUT ON THE BACK OF WHAT I GAVE YOU IS WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.
[01:15:01]
THOUGH THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY WHERE, SEE THE LITTLE SQUIGGLY LINES, THEY'RE GOING TO BORE UNDERNEATH THE COUNTY RIGHT OF WAY TO A DEPTH OF EIGHT FEET TO PUT POWER BECAUSE THAT PROPERTY OWNER DOES NOT WANT ANY, DOES NOT WANT TO GRANT EASEMENT FORUH, THE, UH, ACCORDING TO THE UTILITY CODE THAT THE, UH, ELECTRIC COMPANIES HAVE RIGHT OF IMMINENT DOMAIN, AND THEY COULD DO IT ON IMMINENT DOMAIN, BUT, UH, WE HAD A BIG DISCUSSION ON IT AND, UH, THEY CAN BRING IT TO COMMISSIONER'S COURT.
UH, UTILITY CODE 180 1 0 44, UH, WE CAN DESIGNATE THE LOCATION, UM, AND IT WILL BE THAT LENGTH OF THAT PROPERTY.
UH, IT'LL BE ON THE COUNTY EASEMENT ON THE COUNTY RIGHT OF WAY.
ACTUALLY IT WAS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE DITCH.
AND, UH, WE, WE FEEL THAT THAT'S PROBABLY THE EASIEST SOLUTION.
UH, AND IF YOU WOULD, IF JOHN FEELS THAT HE NEEDS TO READ IT BEFORE WE, I I'VE LOOKED AT IT, YES, IT'S SAFE.
IT'S JUST, IT'S JUST, I MEAN, BY STATUTE THEY CAN DO IT.
SO I, THE EASIEST WAY FOR US TO, UH, HANDLE, UM, IF IT'S OKAY WITH, UH, SOMETIMES BETTER.
I KNOW THEY COULD COME BEFORE THE COURT AND PROBABLY GET THE RIGHT TO DO THAT, BUT IF THEY'RE WILLING TO DO THAT, THEN UH, WE'RE WILLING TO LET 'EM, THAT THAT SEEMS FINE TO ME.
ARE YOU GONNA CHECK OUT THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE EIGHT FOOT FEET? IT'S THIS GOING BE EXHIBIT.
I HAVE THE ORIGINAL, THEY WANT THE ORIGINAL BAG.
YOU CAN CALL THAT EXHIBIT IF YOU WANT.
UH, I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WAS YOUR DRAWING, IF IT WAS THEIR DRAWING.
UH, WE WENT OUT AND MET WITH THEM AND, AND IT'S GOING TO BE EIGHT FOOT DEEP.
SO WE REALLY DON'T, YOU'RE GOING TO CHECK OUT THERE AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S EIGHT FOOT DEEP RIGHT TO GO ACROSS.
IS THERE ANY CONSIDERATION FOR THIS, UH, 40 68 ON THE THIRD AIRPLANE? BE EXPANDED AGAIN? WELL, NO, I'M, I'M GONNA SAY NO, BUT I'M, I'M NOT SURE.
I'D BE THINKING THAT IF IT WAS TO BE EXPANDED SOMETIMES IT WOULD PROBABLY BE OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RELOCATE THE UTILITIES.
I THINK ANYTHING SOUTH, ANYTHING SOUTH OF KEMP IS, IS NOT ON THE TRANSPORTATION.
THE ONLY, THERE'S ONLY TWO ROADS GOING OUT OF KEMP.
UH, ONE IS EAST AND ONE IS WEST 40 17 AND 40 61 ARE THE TWO ONES THAT THEY CONSIDER THE EAST WEST MAJOR THOROUGHFARE, UH, IN THAT PART OF THE COUNTY.
UH, IN ALL FOUR OF OUR LIFETIMES, PROBABLY.
ALL IN FAVOR? SAY A UH, WHO DO I GET THE SAME? MR. GEORGE.
GEORGE WILL SAY, JUDGE, WE HAVE THE COUNTY JUDGE SIGN.
YEAH, JUDGE, I NEED THIS ORIGINAL BACK TO THEM.
UH, CAN YOU GIVE THEM A YEAH, I NEED, I NEED THE ORIGINAL SO THAT THEY CAN BRING IT IN AND UH, CUT ME UP.
