WELL, AS, UH, MANY OF YOU MAY KNOW, JACK SEBASTIAN HAS WORKED FOR KAUFFMAN COUNTY FOR THE LAST 11 YEARS, CAME TO US FROM THE CITY OF RICHARDSON.
HE WAS THE FIRST, UH, PER PURCHASING AGENT KAUFFMAN COUNTY EVER HIRED.

BE MICHAEL CHITTY FOUR 22ND DISTRICT JUDGE.
GOOD WISHES, AND BEST OF LUCK.
ABOUT 11 YEARS AGO, UH, UH, I CAME HOME MAKING A DRIVE FROM RICHARDSON, AND IT, IT WAS A THREE HOUR, 126 MILE ROUND TRAIL.
UH, AND SO MY WIFE TOSSED OVER A NEWSPAPER THAT SAID, CAUGHT THE DRIVER, WAIT FOR PERCY.
SO I THOUGHT, WELL, YOU KNOW, I'LL GIVE THAT A SHOT AND, UH, TURNED IN MY RESUME AND THEN JUDGE JEN ADVISED ME THAT I'D BE MEETING WITH HIM AND TWO DIFFERENT JUDGES.
AND, UH, THAT'S QUITE INTIMIDATING FOR SOMEBODY COURT.
THE FOLKS AT THAT STATURE, UH, DURING THE INTERVIEW, YOU KNOW, WAYNE DID HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS.
AND, UH, UH, AT THE END, HE ASKED ME WHAT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING MY JOB FILE WOULD BE HIRED, AND I SAID, TO KEEP, UH, ALL THE OFFICIALS OUT OF JAIL AND THE COUNTY ON THE NEWSPAPER AS OF 10, 10 AFTER NINE THIS MORNING.
I THINK I'VE DONE THAT SO FAR,
UH, WHEN I, WHEN I STARTED WORK, I DID NOTIFY THAT THE GENTLEMAN THAT HIRED ME, JUDGE JEFF WAS, WAS UH, IN THE HOSPITAL WITH A BROKEN L UH, WAY.
I, HE FROM HORSE ACCIDENT DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER HE'D RETURNED OR NOT.
SO THAT WAS KIND OF A KIND OF STRANGE, AND WHEN I SHOWED UP THE FIRST DAY, UH, I THINK ANGIE WAS THE ONE IN THE, UH, UH, JUDGE'S OFFICE, YOU KNOW, WHERE I REPORT TO.
SHE SAID, I THINK YOU REPORT TO THE OFFICER'S OFFICE.
SO I WENT TO THE AUDITOR'S OFFICE AND THERE WAS A CHAIR WITH A BROKE BACK AND A DESK.
I'M PRETTY SURE IT WAS MISS WINKLE WAS MY FIRST GRADE TEACHER AND SAID, SAID, MAKE SCHOOL AND PUT ROAD.
[00:05:01]
A ROBOT.WHEN I GOT THERE, THERE AGAIN, MR. SURROUNDING, THERE WAS A YELLOW PAGE ON THE DESK AND, UH, I HAD A PHONE AND IT WAS ALL THERE.
AND I ASKED, I ASKED IF PEOPLE NOT HAVE ON THIS, UH, DO YOU KNOW THE EXTENSION? AND THEY SAID, NO,
SAID IT WAS QUITE A, IT WAS QUITE A TASK AT, AT WHEN I WENT HOME THAT DAY WITH MY WIFE, UH, UH, WAITED PATIENTLY HERE OTHER DAY WHEN, UH, THAT'S BEFORE MY DAYS OF TEXTING AND SOCIAL MEDIA.
SO SHE WAITED ALL THAT TO FIND OUT.
WHEN I GOT HOME, SHE ASKED, HOW WAS HER DAY? AND I SAID, WELL, THREE THINGS COME TO MIND.
I DON'T KNOW WHY WE TOOK THE PAPER
I DUNNO HOW THAT YOU TAUGHT ME INTO THIS.
AND I DUNNO WHAT, I'M GOT SOMETHING INTO IT,

AND THE REASON THAT IT SAYS TO INFORM YOU INSTEAD OF, UM, ASK PERMISSION IS BECAUSE THE PRIMARY IS CONSIDERED THE PARTY ELECTION.

UM, WOULD JUST LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT IN THE PAST, UH, MONTH, THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT HAD DONE SOME ADJUSTMENTS ON THE TAX ROLL, WHICH BRINGS OUR EXPECTED AMOUNT DOWN BY ALMOST 58,000.
AND WE STILL HAVE DEFERRED ON A REGULAR BASIS RIGHT NOW ON 55, ABOVE 55,000.

UH, YES, DIRECT TRAFFIC OUT THERE THE LAST COUPLE DAYS OF THE MONTH, ANY MONTH.
BUT IF YOU TAKE BY IN JANUARY, WE DID GET IN, UM, OH, ABOUT 43 MILLION IN AND ALL THE BANKS PAID THIS YEAR IN DECEMBER.
SO THAT'S ALREADY REFLECTED IN THIS AMOUNT.
NOW THAT, OF COURSE, THAT MANDATE IS NOT ALL FOR THE COUNTY, IT'S FOR ALL 33 ENTITIES.
SO, BUT THE BANKS ALL HAVE ALL PAID ALREADY.
SECONDED, UH, YOU WANT ME TO TELL WHO? YES, PLEASE.

SO I, I DUNNO, WE'RE, WE'RE GONNA PRESENT ONE FOR THE QUARTER ENDING DECEMBER 31ST AND 15 AND, UH, FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER 15, THAT'S WHAT'S IN YOUR PACKET.
AND FOR THE QUARTERLY REPORT, SINCE THAT'S WHAT'S ON THE AGENDA ITEM, UH, OCTOBER 1ST, 2015, WE BEGAN WITH 3,047,000 8 0 7 0.89.
OUR RECEIPTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDING DECEMBER 31ST, 2015 WERE 7 MILLION 8 63 0 32 0.99.
AND OUR DISBURSEMENTS WERE 9 6 68 360 6 0.67 A, AN ENDING DECEMBER 31ST, 2015 OF 1 MILLION 2 42 4 74 21.
AND I BELIEVE YOU'VE GOT EACH OF YOUR, JUST TO REEMPHASIZE, DO AS WE DO EACH REPORT, ALL OF OUR MONEY IS AN AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK AND WE'VE PROVIDED YOU AN PRIOR MONTH, A SAMPLE OF THE, UH, PLEDGE SECURITIES REPORT, UH, THE STYLE OF THAT.
SO WE'RE STILL AT 35 BASIS POINTS ON OUR YIELD RATE.
AND IN THE LOWER RIGHT HAND CORNER, YOU CAN SEE THE GENERAL FUND CASH PRODUCED, UH, $1,365 AND 96 CENTS IN INTEREST FOR DECEMBER AND FIVE AND 1 46 0.02 FOR THE QUARTER.
THE MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT PRODUCED 2189.
OUR BONDS PRODUCED 16 TIMES TIMES 47 46 6.

A AYE WHO MADE THE SECOND MOTION, HOW DO WE CORRECT THAT? UH, I, I WOULD PREFER NOT TO DISCUSS THIS BECAUSE IT INVOLVES, UH, REAL QUESTION.
I WOULD BE HAPPY TO MEET WITH HIM PERSONALLY AND TALK TO HIM ABOUT WE'RE NOT TO.
AGAIN, ONLY COMMENTING ON THE PROVIDED.
DIDN'T WANT GET INTO, THANKS FOR YOUR COMMISSIONER.
WE HAD YOU ON YOUR REQUEST MOTION.
TWO MOTIONS OLDFIELD EXCEPT BEFORE JANUARY 16TH.
THAT WAS ENDING DECEMBER 31ST, CORRECT? I MAY MOTION.
MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ALLEN SECOND BY COMMISSIONER.
ALL THE, THE QUARTER REPORT WAS THE ONE THAT AGENDA THE MONTHLY ALL TWO AGENDA ITEMS. I'M SO SORRY.
THE MONTHLY REPORT WAS THE FIRST SHEET IN YOUR PACKET.
THE GENERAL FUND STARTED DECEMBER 1ST WITH A NEGATIVE 5 47.
OH, 50 POINT 57 DISBURSEMENTS OF 2 MILLION.
4 41 24 FOR ENDING BALANCE IN 1 MILLION 2 42.
UM, AGAIN, ALL THE CASH TO THE AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK, UM, IN YOUR MONTHLY, YOUR MIDDLE SECTION.
AND THEN WE DISCUSS THE INTEREST FOR THE GENERAL FUND OF 1365 90 6 CENTS.
THE MMI OF $7 13 CENTS THE ROAD 48 12, ALL 6 9 9.
DISCUSSING, DISCUSS HAZARD WASTE FEES AT PRECINCT FLOOR CONVENIENCE STATION, UH, AT COMMISSIONER.
I THINK THIS IS YOUR YEAH, JUST TO KIND OF BRING IT OFF TODAY, SINCE IN THE PRIOR YEARS TCEQ HAD NOT BEEN COMING OUT, COURSE I'VE BEEN GOING SINCE THEN.
THEY HAVE BEEN OUT AND INSPECTED OUR FACILITY AND NOW WE HAVE TO FILE THESE QUARTER REPORTS, MANUAL REPORTS AND COMING BACK AND IT'S WASTE.
TWO, WE FOUND THEY WON'T COME THAT FAR AND PICK IT UP.
UH, AND WE'RE CHARGING LIKE 25 BUCKS, UH, TO DUMP IT.
WE CALL AROUND MESQUITE, DALLAS, WHATEVER.
MESQUITE CITY SENDING TO EVERYONE UP ON PLAIN ROAD IN THE MINIMUM CHARGE IS 95.
IF THAT'S ONE BUCKET OF PAY FOR ONE DEAL, WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE, IT'S 95, YOU OVER 25.
THEN THERE'S ANOTHER INCREASE STATION.
LAST TIME WAS LIKE 3000, $3,300.
THEN THE OTHER WAS LIKE 1700 TO FOR ALSO OIL CHEAP.
[00:20:06]
BUT I'LL EITHER A, WE INCREASE THE FEE YEAR.I KNOW WHEN THIS CONVENIENCE STATION, I THINK JACK CAN TELL ME THIS FOR SURE.
I BELIEVE THIS IS THE WAY IT WORKED, THAT WE DID THIS AND IT WAS GONNA BE THE PLACE TO TAKE CARE OF.
AND, UH, I THINK WE REALLY NEED TO HAVE A WORKSHOP.
THIS, UH, THEY'LL SEE EXACTLY WHERE WE'RE AT.
UH, I WOULD STATE, UH, COMMISSIONER HEAT AND YOU SURE DON'T WANT HAVE ANY HICCUPS WITH NO GET NO FINE, FINE.
STEP UP THE PLATE, NOT ASKING.
NUMBER EIGHT, THIS IS LAURIE FLOYD.
UH, UPDATE THE COURT ON THE STATUS OF THE SERVICE AWARD POLICY.
OKAY, SO Y'ALL APPROVE THIS, UM, POLICY FOR SERVICE AWARD AND RECOGNITION.
UH, AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON JACK AND I'VE BEEN WORKING ON IT.
IT WAS KIND OF A TWO PART POLICY.
WE'RE DOING SERVICE PINS FOR EMPLOYEES AND THEN WE'RE, UH, DOING UM, CERTIFICATE BRAIN TYPE THINGS.
SO, UM, JUST WANTED TO UPDATE YOU WHERE WE ARE.
BUT, UM, SO WE'RE SCHEDULING, EXCUSE ME, THE PENS HAVE BEEN ORDERED AND I EMAILED THAT STUFF OUT ON FRIDAY.
SHOULD BE IN ANY DAY NOW, HOPEFULLY.
UM, AND GOT ALL THOSE ORDERED.
AND THEN SO OUR PLAN WITH THOSE PENS ARE FOR THIS FIRST YEAR, UM, I THINK I SAID THERE'S GONNA BE 253, UM, EMPLOYEES THAT WILL RECEIVE A PIN THE FIRST YEAR.
AND WHAT THAT IS, THAT IS UM, IF YOU'VE BEEN HERE 11 YEARS, YOU'RE GONNA GET A PIN FOR 10 YEARS, UM, ON THAT FIRST YEAR.
SO NEXT YEAR IT'LL MOVE THE NUMBERS DOWN BECAUSE THE FIRST YEAR IS KIND OF OUR BIGGEST.
SO THE IDEA BEHIND IT WAS ON THE INITIAL KIND OF KICKOFF IS TO HAVE ONE BIG LUNCHEON BY ALL THE EMPLOYEES, EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT GETTING AN AWARD.
IT'S 10 TO BE SCHEDULED RIGHT NOW FOR, UM, MONDAY, MARCH THE SEVENTH.
UM, IT'S, UM, WE'VE TALKED TO, UM, REGULAR HELP.
WE TALK TO THE HIGH SCHOOL AND THEY'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO THEIR CAFETERIA IN THAT SPRING BREAK.
SO IT WORKS OUT AND HIGH CAFETERIA, BUT IT HAS PLENTY OF ROOM.
UM, AND THEN I'M CURRENTLY WORKING ON THE FOOD STATUS.
I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ON THAT YET.
UM, BUT THE IDEA WAS TO DO FOR A COUPLE HOURS COME AND GO.
SO CAN COME DURING LUNCHTIME AND THEN, UM, PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT INTO IT.
GO AHEAD AND START THE CEREMONY.
WE START HANGING OUT THE REWARDS ALSO, THE PLAN IS TO INVITE RETIREES.
I BELIEVE THE POLICY WAS APPROVED IN JUNE OF 2015.
SO, UM, WE'RE GONNA INVITE THE RETIREES AND HAVE RETIRED SINCE THEN.
UM, AND WE'RE WORKING WITH A FRAME SHOP IN TYRELL AND THEY AGREED, UM, TO A FULL RATE TO FRAME IT.
UM, WE'RE WORKING ON FINALIZING WHAT THE ACTUAL CERTIFICATES GONNA LOOK LIKE IN THE PAPER AND WE'RE GET WE FINAL IT QUOTE.
YEAH, THESE, THEY'RE NOT REALLY GOOD.
I REALLY APPRECIATE Y'ALL DOING THIS BECAUSE OUR EMPLOYEES NEED TO BE RECOGNIZED.
SO IF Y'ALL HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ANY IDEAS,
[00:25:01]
FEEL FREE TO LET US KNOW.IT'S GOOD TO LOOK AT INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE.
UH, KIND OF SEEMS LIKE OUR, OUR FUNDING, OUR SOURCES ARE COMING IN ON TIME.
UM, JUST THE GENERAL FUNDING EXPENDITURES.
WERE AT 7.5 MILLION FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF, UH, THIS FISCAL YEAR.
AND THAT'S PRETTY WELL ON TARGET.
RUNNING ABOUT THE SAME THAT IT USUALLY DOES.
UH, A LITTLE LESS THAN WHAT WOULD BE THE BENCHMARK.
IT WOULD EXPECT ABOUT 8 MILLION UNDER THAT.
DO Y'ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? YES, SIR.
OR ONE ON THE UH, THE JAIL CONSTRUCTION? I DEBT SERVICE SAYS 328.
THAT'S THE INTEREST THAT WE PAID THIS YEAR, RIGHT? SO FAR? YES.
UH, NO, WE PAY THAT TWICE A YEAR.
YOUR, YOUR FIRST DEBT PAYMENT WOULD BE PAID IN MARCH WOULD BE PROBABLY AT A MILLION DOLLARS IN THAT DEBT SERVICE THAT'S ABOVE 62.
THOSE ARE JUST SO WHAT IS MY THAT IS ON THE, THE SMALLER LOAN.
IT'S THE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ON THAT OR WE FIN MM-HMM
HOW MUCH ARE YOU STILL? IT'S NOT HOMELESS.
UM, I WOULD SAY IT'S, IT'S PROBABLY ABOUT 12, 13 MILLION.
AND AFTER WE PAY THIS, THIS MILLION IN MARCH, THAT'LL BE DUE.
IT'D BE A LITTLE BIT LESS THAN THAT.
SO THE MILLION IS NOT ALL INTEREST.
IT'S PRINCIPAL INTEREST THE WAY YOU YES.
THE WAY WE, WE SCHEDULED IT, IF YOU REMEMBER THE, THE REFUNDING PART WAS THE MILLION THREE THAT WE USED ON THE ARMORY.
UM, THAT WAS A SAVINGS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE TO TOUCH IT TO EXTEND ON DEBT.
AND THEY USED IT TO FINISH THE ARMORY PROJECT.
YOU GOT ANY QUESTIONS? I ENTERTAIN A MOTION.
MOTION BY COMMISSIONER ALLEN SAY IS EXITING REGULAR MEETING AND EXECUTIVE SESSION.
YEAH, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER TAKING ANY ACTION THAT'S NEEDED, UH, AS NEED OF THE RESULT OF THE EXECUTIVE SESSION.
OH, WHEN? EARLIER HE EXITED AND THEN ENTERED RECORD SESSION MOTION TO ENTER THE RECORD SESSION.
MOTION WAS MADE, SECONDED BY MOTION.
ACCEPTED BY COMMISSIONER PHELP.
[00:30:01]
AYE.I, UH, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER TAKING ANY ACTION NEED AS A RESULT OF THE EXECUTIVE SESSION.
I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE'RE NOT TAKING ANY ACTION.
SECOND, HAVE A MOTION BY PHELPS AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER TO TAKE NO ACTION AS THE RESULT OF THE EXECUTIVE SESSION.
ALL JUST TO MAKE SURE LOOKY ANY QUESTIONS ON THOSE? NO MA'AM.
DO I HAVE A MOTION? MOTION MOTION.

YOUR CLAIMS FOR PAYMENT TODAY ARE 1,000,400 98,262 AND 99.
UH, ALMOST A MILLION OF THAT WAS ON EXPENDITURES.
ANNUAL SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE IS AROUND 149,000.
SO THOSE WERE YOUR BIGGEST, BIGGEST CONTRIBUTORS.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON BILLS? I DO.
OKAY, TELL ME WHAT PAGE? THE BIG, I GUESS THE BIG PACKET.
UH, I ASSUME SO IT'S GOT LIKE 60 PAGES.
THIS, WHAT IS IT FOR THE, IT'S UNDER FIRE CODE 6 49.
OKAY, SO THAT'S NOT THE BIG PACKAGE ON THE WEEKLY CHECKS.
YEAH, THOSE GUYS HAVE COUNTY VEHICLES.
DID IT TAKE THREE VEHICLES OR DID WE JUST HAND OUT THE PER DIEM? THAT'S PER DIEMS. I CAN LOOK, LOOK IT UP FOR YOU.
THEY WENT TO NORTH TEXAS FIRE MARSHALS CONFERENCE IN RICHARDSON, TEXAS FOR JANUARY 26, 27 AND 28.
SO THAT'S, THAT'S MEAL THEY'RE CLAIMING FOR THEM? YES SIR.
I DON'T THINK THEY, THEY FEED THEM.
THEY DON'T, THEY MIGHT HAVE A BREAKFAST THING BUT THEY DON'T FEED FREE MEALS.
I DON'T THINK PAID US OR MOST OF THE TIME
[00:35:01]
DON'T THEY DON'T ME.UNLESS I PAY TO GO TO THEIR, I DON'T THINK SO.
PAID 20, 25 OF THE BIG PACKAGE.
UH, THERE'S A SCOTT SMITH AND UH, IT'S LIKE 92 FOR THE STATEMENT OF FACT.
AND HE IS UH, HE IS UH, HE'S RETIRED.
IS IT THAT WE ONLY STIPULATIONS THAT COURT.
COURT REPORTER HAS AND THEY ARE, WE PAY THEM THE SALARY IF THEY HAVE ANY OUTSIDE CASES.
THEY WORK ON THAT AND WE PAY THEM THE SET FEE AND THEY GET A JUDGE NINE HAVE TO CLAIM IT.
WHAT IT IS, WHAT IT IS, THEY TIME SHEETS IN, THEY CHARGE BY THE HOUR.
I GUESS THEY CHARGE BY YES, JUDGE.
JUDGE USES THEIR DAILY CHARGES AND HER WEEKEND CHARGES.
WHAT I THINK I UNDERSTAND IT IS WHEN THEY'RE, WHEN THEY'RE DOING IT IN CODE, THEIR LITTLE MACHINE.
YEAH, THEY HAVE TO GO HOME THEN THEY HAVE TO WRITE TRANSCRIPT.
BUT THAT'S WHAT PAID JUST DECIPHER JUST THE APPEAL ON THE APPEAL IN COURT PAPER.
JUST THE APPEAL ON ERIC WILLIAMS WAS OVER 9,300 PAGES.
WE'RE PAYING OUR LAWYER AGAIN.
WHICH ONE? WELL WE HERMAN'S OFFICE FOR 2,619.
THAT WAS LASER CARTRIDGES FOR THE PRINTERS AT THE, SO, AND THEN ON PAGE SEVEN WE GOT OFFICE SUPPLIES FOR SCOTT
THAT IS A DIFFERENT OFFICE SUPPLY.
THAT IS FOR THE DISTRICT CLERK'S.
THAT WAS ALL THAT STUFF THAT, OKAY.
I JUST THOUGHT TWO DIFFERENT OFFICE SUPPLIES.
DID YOU SEE THAT MASS COUNTY? WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE? A CONVENTION GOING
THEN THEY'RE COMING BACK THIS NEXT WEEK.
THERE A HARVEY OFFICE 4 35 89.
NO, THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S IT WAS FOR A FRONT HUB ASSEMBLY.
OR ONE OF THE UH, SO VEHICLES.
THESE ATTORNEYS FOR CCPS, DO THEY CHARGE THAN THE OTHER ATTORNEY? UH, THEY SHOULDN'T BE.
WE HAVE, WE HAVE A, A SET FEE.
[00:40:01]
JUDGES SO IT DEPENDS ON WHAT JUDGE NOW IS HEARING IN THOSE CASES.QUESTIONS GENTLEMEN, HE'S GOT ONE.
WE GOT OUT HERE THE COURTHOUSE SECURITY AND 1515.
UM, THIS ONE HAS LIKE OVER NINE HOURS OF STUFF AND THEN THE OTHER ONE AND IT'S JUDGE JONES SIGNED.
YOU HAVE WHAT? THIS ONE 15 COURT SECURITY 9 78.
REMEMBER WHAT, WHAT UM, PACKETS IN.
WHAT PAGE GONNA ASK FROM 16 OR 15? 15.
THAT WAS, THAT WAS FIRE PROTECTION FOR THE ONE.
THAT WAS SOME SUPPLIES THAT WERE ORDERED.
ARE YOU SUB AT COURTHOUSE? DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT WAS? NOT OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.
I LOVE TO SEE HOW MUCH IT WAS YOU IT IS NOW MAKE SURE THAT I DO, I HAVE ONE ON YOUR, SO AGO I RECEIVED A CERTIFIED LETTER FROM THE IRS SAYING WE OWED HIM ANOTHER 5,200 ON SOME FEES.
SO I WENT IN MY BOOK, I SAT ASIDE MR. OAKFIELD WHEN HE MADE THOSE AND WE PRINTED THEM OUT.
SO I SENT HIM COPIES AND TOLD HIM THAT BILL'S BEEN PAID AND WANT SOMETHING FROM YOU SAYING WE OWE NOTHING ELSE.
SO JUST WANTED YOU TO BE AWARE THAT THEY SENT ME A CERTIFIED LETTER.
I WAS SUPPOSED TO ANSWER IT BY FEBRUARY 15TH.
WHERE'S MONEY DOWN TO GET ON THE TRACK? THEY DON'T GET OFF.
AND WHAT IS REALLY WEIRD IS WE MADE THOSE PAYMENTS IN OCTOBER THAT THEY WOULD NOT HAVE CLEARED OUR FILE.
SO THERE ARE ISSUES WITH BUT THEY NEVER CASH.
I KNOW, BUT THEY NEVER, THEY DID.
NO, HE PAID THAT ELECTRONICALLY THROUGH THEIR SYSTEM PER THEIR INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT TO NAME IT AND EVERYTHING.
BUT IN YOUR OWN COMPUTER YOU CAN'T FIND WHAT FILE YOU PUT IT IN.
IF YOU REMEMBER THAT DAY THAT I PRESENTED THAT TO YOU, I SHOWED YOU WHAT THE ORIGINAL FEE WAS AND WHAT SHE WAS CHARGING AND I GOT HER TO REDUCE THAT.
THAT'S WHERE I THINK SHE DIDN'T COMMUNICATE THAT TO THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT AND MAKE, DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE HAD MADE THOSE PAYMENTS.
SO I JUST WANTED Y'ALL TO BE AWARE OF IT.
AND I HAVE SIMPLY LEGAL COUNSEL A COPY.
SHE KNOW SHE'S FULLY AWARE OF WHAT AWARE OF ON THAT LEGAL BILL.
SO THEY KNEW WE WERE GONNA GET SOMEBODY.
I'M STILL WORKING ON IT, BUT IN THE PAST TWO PEOPLE I TRIED TO CONTRACT AND GET A BID, YOU KNOW, AMOUNT ON, THEY WEREN'T UNABLE TO DO IT, BUT IT TOOK ME ABOUT ONE A MONTH IN ORDER TO FIND NOT ABLE TO DO IT.
AND LAST POINT TOOK THEM ALL LAST WEEK AND FRIDAY I GOT AN EMAIL.
SO PRIVATE THEY ARE DOESN'T HAVE T REFERRED ME TO BOTH THOSE.
SO I'M REACHING OUT TO SOME OF OUR OTHER ATTORNEYS.
ONE OF OUR ATTORNEYS HAS A CPA, TAX ATTORNEY HAS BEEN, HE'S TRYING TO FIND COMPANY TO LOOK INTO.
SO IT'S, THAT'S PROJECT FOR THIS WEEK.
[00:45:02]
IT NEEDS TO BE DONE.SOMETIMES PEOPLE TALK VAGUE AND THEY DON'T DO NOTHING ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT.
WELL, I'D ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO DISCUSS PAYMENT.
HOW YOU DOING MR. YOUR HONOR, TODAY.
