I ALLEGIANCE TRUE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO REPUBLIC FOR WHICH THE STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INVIS OF LIBERTY.
LIBERTY JUSTICE FROM OUR HONOR OF TEXAS FLAG, TEXAS ONE.
OKAY, I DON'T THINK WE HAVE ANYBODY, UH, SIGNED UP.
SO WE'LL MOVE RIGHT ON INTO THE AGENDA.
UH, THE CONSENT AGENDA IS, UH, TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACCEPTING THE REGULAR MEETING MINUTES FOR JANUARY THE 22ND, UH, 2018.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT? NO.
I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ACCEPT THOSE THEN.
SO MAY COMMISSIONER ALLEN MAY ACCEPT MOTION TO HAVE A SECOND PHILLIP.
POLL ITEM NUMBER, UH, THREE IS TO DISCUSS AND SERVE A REQUEST FOR AN ON ONSITE SEW OF VARIANCE LOCATED AT 1305.
CLEARED IN STATES AND HOFFMAN COUNTY PRECINCT NUMBER TWO.
AND COMMISSIONER, I BELIEVE THIS, UH, WAS, UH, IN YOUR PRECINCT.
UH, SO YOU WANNA TALK TO US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT? YEAH, IT, IT IS, IT IS, UH, MAN, MR. A DID RIGHT THERE AND, UH, ASKED IF I'D PUT THIS ON THE COURT.
BASICALLY WHAT HE DID, UM, I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I CALLED RANDY ABOUT IT.
UM, AND IT'S UNDER THE ONE HOUSE, ONE ACRE RULE THING.
UM, HE WAS ASKING FOR VARIANCE 'CAUSE HE IS BUILDING A HOUSE OUT BACK FOR, I GUESS HIS CHILDREN LEAVE THERE.
HIS SON AND DAUGHTER-IN-LAW, OR DAUGHTER AND SON-IN-LAW.
WHICH ONE? UM, AND, UH, I CHECKED WITH THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT AND CHECKED WITH THE STATE.
THE STATE, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S OKAY.
THE HOMEOWNER'S ASSOCIATION GRANTED HIM PERMISSION.
THEY DIDN'T SEE A THING WRONG WITH IT.
UM, AND THEY'RE REAL STRICTLY THERE.
YOU CAN'T RENT, YOU CAN'T SEPARATE, IT'S ALL ONE FAMILY AND THAT'S ALL THAT YOU CAN HAVE ON YOUR PROPERTY.
SO, YOU KNOW, I DON'T PARTICULARLY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT.
SO I PUT IT ON THE COURT AND I SAID THAT'S PUT IT ON THE COURT.
UH, I BELIEVE THERE WERE SOME, UH, I'VE LOOKED THIS OVER AND I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER WHERE IT, UH, WHERE IT IS.
BUT THERE'S SOME, UH, REBECCA, I MAY HAVE TO GET UP A COPY OF IT FROM YOU, BUT, UH, RANDY, I KNOW THIS WHERE RANDY, RIGHT? OKAY.
I KNOW THIS IS IN YOUR, UH, WHAT DO YOU NEED A COPY OF, SIR? THE, WELL WE JUST DISCUSSED A MINUTE.
[00:05:01]
YEAH, FROM REBECCA THAT WE JUST DISCUSSED A MINUTE AGO.HE SHOULD HAVE A COPY OF HIM AS WELL.
DO YOU HAVE A BRING THAT ME? YEAH.
MR. MCKENZIE, DO YOU HAVE, WOULD HE HAVE NO, HE WOULDN'T HAVE THEM.
I'VE GOT 'EM IN SOME CORRESPONDENCE.
SO I'LL EXPLAIN WHAT THEY ARE.
SO ANYTIME A DESIGNATED AGENT REVIEWS A PERMIT REQUEST, HE HAS TO OPERATE WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF WHAT OUR ON ONSITE TO FACILITY ORDER IS.
AND I HAVE BUT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WHAT I, THAT'S WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW IF, SO THE APPEAL PROCESS IN OUR ORDER IS THAT IF HE'S DENIED THE PERMIT BECAUSE IT DIDN'T MEET A REQUIREMENT IN THE ORDER.
AND YOU GUYS ARE THE REVIEW FOR THAT.
AND WHAT CCQ REQUIRES IS THAT WE MAKE ADDITIONAL FINDINGS TO OPERATE OUTSIDE THE ORDER THAT THEY'VE ALSO APPROVED.
AND THAT'S WHAT I GIVEN FROM THE JUDGE.
BUT IT'S, UH, INFORMATION HERE I LIKE TO HEAR FROM THE, UH, INSPECTION BOARD.
AND SO, OKAY, YOUR HONOR, WHAT I'VE DONE IS I'VE PUT A PACKET KIND OF LIKE I'VE DONE LAST TIME FOR Y'ALL WHEN WE HAD A VARIANCE.
THIS IS WHAT SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO PUT IN.
YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED ELECTRONIC COPY AS YOU SEE, IS THERE APPLICATION THAT THEY HAVE SUBMITTED TO PUBLIC WORKS? SECOND ONE IS JUST OUR, A COPY OF OUR ORDINANCE THAT WE HAVE THAT THE DESIGN THAT THEY HAVE, UH, THAT WAS PRESENTED TO US WITH THEIR, THEIR HOME IN IT.
THEY'RE ALSO PUTTING IN A NEW GARAGE THERE, WHICH IS 776 FEET WITH A BATHROOM ON IT AS WELL.
UH, THEN THE 1200 SQUARE FOOT HOME WITH THE TAX GARAGE ON IT.
AND AT THE BACK, WHEN YOU GO TO THE OTHER PAGE HERE, YOU CAN SEE THAT THIS IS THE ACTUAL APPLICATION THAT WE HAD TO RECEIVE.
AND, UM, EVERYTHING HAS MET WITH, UH, WITH PUBLIC WORKS EXCEPT FOR THE ACREAGE.
THIS PROPERTY IS 1.3, TOP THREE OR FOUR.
YOU CAN SEE THE DRAWING HERE OF THE SPRINKLERS AND STUFF.
IT WILL BE ON A TIMER FOR NIGHT, WHICH ALL THAT DOES PASS WITH, WITH US, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT IT IS ONE ACRE AND IT IS TWO RESIDENCE ON THAT ONE ACRE.
WELL, THE SYSTEM WILL WORK, RIGHT? YES, SIR.
IT HAS BEEN DESIGNED BY REGISTER RS SANITARY.
UH, HE HAS DESIGNED IT, IT WILL COVER THE, THE PROPERTY THAT YOU CAN SEE.
WELL, THE REASON I DIDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT WAS BECAUSE IT, IT ISN'T ALUM.
THERE'S NOT, THERE'S NO PLACE ELSE WHERE TO GO AND, AND, UH, IT'S A VERY EXPENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD AND IF THE HOMEOWNERS THERE ALL IN AGREEMENT WITH IT AND THEY'RE OKAY AND THEY DON'T SEEM TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT, AND IT'S ALL ONE FAMILY BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO RENT, THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO SUB IT, THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT THEIR FAMILY THERE.
SO I DON'T, I DON'T HAVE A, I DON'T HAVE AN ISSUE WITH IT.
AND I THINK UNDER THE, UNDER THE REQUIREMENT, THE SYSTEM IS, YOU KNOW, DESIGNED FOR, YOU KNOW, UH, UH, FOR THE LOT AND CAN MEET AND EXCEED THE MINIMUM PUBLIC HEALTH STANDARDS, IT WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECTS ON PUBLIC WELFARE.
WE'LL, NOT, AND IT WILL WE'LL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL OR THE WELFARE OR BETTER WILL, BETTER HEALTH.
WELL, I BELIEVE IT WILL BE, I MEAN, I, I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS A, I DON'T BELIEVE MR.
AND ALSO THEY'RE ALSO, THEY HAVE SEWER NOW ABOUT 200 YARDS AWAY FROM 'EM, I THINK HERE PRETTY SOON.
THEY'LL BE CONNECTED TO SEWER ANYWAY.
[00:10:01]
PROBABLY ANNEX 'EM.UM, UH, I DON'T THINK IT'LL STAY THERE LONG.
UH, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM DESIGN.
IT WILL, IT'S DESIGNED TO CARRY THE LOAD OF ALL THIS AND IT WOULD MEET THE STATE REQUIREMENTS AS FAR AS THE BASIC STATE LAW IN TEXAS, ALL COUNTIES.
AND MOST ALL COUNTIES DO ADOPT AT LEAST THE ONE ACRE RULE FOR, UH, FOR OTHER, YOU KNOW, SITUATIONS WE'VE, WE'VE ENCOUNTERED IN THE PAST, THE PRIMARY CONCERN THAT WE HAVE WITH TWO RESIDENCES ON ONE SYSTEM, AND WE ARE RUNNING THIS ISSUE AT LEAST THREE OR FOUR TIMES, IF IT EVER IS SPLIT OR SOLD SEPARATELY OR EVER EVEN SUBDIVIDED AGAIN, WHICHEVER HOUSE CARRIES THE ELECTRICAL LOAD TO RUN THIS PUMPS AND EVERYTHING FOR THE SYSTEM, IF THE ELECTRICITY'S TURNED OFF OF THAT HOUSE, THE SYSTEM FAILS BECAUSE THE OTHER USING IT.
AND THAT'S, THAT'S ONE OF THE BIG ISSUES OF HAVING TWO ON THE ONE ACRE OR TWO, WE ACTUALLY PREFER ONE HOUSE PER SYSTEM, UH, IS OPTIMUM.
THAT WAY IF THEY DO SPLIT UP OR ONE LOSES ELECTRICITY OR CELLS OR WHATEVER, WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT.
'CAUSE THERE'S NO ACTIVITY, NO ELECTRICITY, NO WATER, THERE'S NO CONCERN.
AND THEN THE OTHER HOUSE WOULD'VE ITS OWN SYSTEM.
SO THAT'S, THAT'S OUR PRIMARY CONCERN.
IF IT'S A SITUATION WHERE THE COUNTY CAN BE ASSURED THAT, UM, THERE WOULD NEVER BE SEPARATION OF SALE OR OUTSIDE THE FAMILY OR, OR THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT I JUST DISCUSSED, IS OUTSIDE STATE LAW, THE ONLY REASON THAT MR. MCKENZIE HAD TO DENY, AND THE ONLY REASON WOULD TELL THE FACT THAT IT WENT AGAINST WHAT WAS ADOPTED AND APPROVED BY THE COUNTY COURT.
BUT THAT DOES PROVIDE FOR A VARIANCE.
AND, UH, YEAH, I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM.
I I KNOW THE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, I KNOW THE, THE PEOPLE INVOLVED CAN'T BE SEPARATED AND CAN ONLY HAVE ONE FAMILY.
THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BY RULES IN THEIR OWN ASSOCIATION.
SO THEY CAN BE SOLD, SEPARATED OR ANYTHING.
AND HE'S MAINTAINING ALL THE COSTS AND EXPENSE ANYTHING.
THAT'S NOT, THE ONLY OTHER CONSIDERATION THAT THE COUNTY COURT MAY NEED TO CONSIDER IS THE FACT THAT BECAUSE OUR MORE RESTRICTIVE, UH, REGULATIONS HAD TO BE APPROVED BY TCEQ, THEN WE'RE NOW BOUND BY THOSE RULES.
NOW I THINK THERE'S A, A VARIANCE IN THERE, BUT THAT DOESN'T NEGATE THE FACT THAT TCEQ COULD SAY, HEY, WE APPROVED FOR YOU TO HAVE THESE RULES AND NOW THAT YOU ARE NOT ABIDING BY THE RULES, WHICH WOULD REALLY BE NO DIFFERENT THAN ABIDING BY THE STATE'S RULES, IN MY OPINION, THAT, UM, THE COUNTY COULD BE SUBJECT TO ADMINISTRATIVE LIABILITY UPON PCQ.
I THINK LEGAL MAY WOULD HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION ON THAT.
BUT AM I CLOSE? YOU ARE CLOSE.
I THINK THAT THE ONE FACT THAT HELPS YOU IS THAT YOU'RE NOT, EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE TWO RESIDENCES, IT'S STILL OVER ONE ACRE.
SO YOU ARE AT THAT HALF ACRE PER RESIDENCE, WHICH IS THE STATE LAW.
SO ANYTIME YOU'RE GOING BELOW THE HALF ACRE, YOU RUN THAT RISK A LITTLE BIT MORE.
BUT THAT WOULD BE PER SYSTEM FOR A HOUSEHOLD.
THIS WOULD BE ONE SYSTEM FOR THE TWO, WHICH IS ONLY THE SEPARATION, LACK OF ELECTRICITY WOULD BE, AND AGAIN, THAT'S WHY THE FINDINGS THAT I PROVIDED THE COURT HAVE TO BE MADE IN ORDER TO SUPPORT WHY YOU GUYS ARE, IF YOU CHOOSE TO APPROVING THE VARIANCE SO THAT TCQ HAS THOSE JUSTIFICATIONS FROM THE COURT.
WE HAVE OTHER DISCUSSIONS, WE HAVE QUESTIONS FOR, FOR ANYONE.
MY MY ONLY CONCERN IS WE HAVE THE, WE HAVE THE RULES IN PLACE FOR A REASON AND, AND, AND, AND I DON'T WANNA GET CAUGHT UP IN THE GOOD OLD BOY SYSTEM.
AND I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
THE HOA AND, AND EVERYBODY, IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE AND EVERYBODY WATCHES AND MONITORS AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
BUT I, I'M JUST CONCERNED WHEN WE START DOING THIS AND WE'VE JUST NEGATED EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE SET IN POLICY AND IT'S JUST GONNA KEEP GROWING AND GROWING AND GROWING AND I DON'T WANT THE GOOD OLD VOICE SYSTEM TO BECOME PREVALENT.
I MEAN, WE'VE GOT THE RULES FOR A REASON AND YOU KNOW, LIKE THE LAST TIME, YOU KNOW, MY STANCE IS THAT WE NEED TO ABIDE BY THAT.
WE HAVE THE RULES THAT WE HAVE SUBDIVISIONS AND STUFF.
SO, AND, AND AND I AGREE, BUT THAT'S THE REASON WE DO HAVE VARIANCES.
HOWEVER, IF ALL THE ROOFTOPS WERE TIED TOGETHER, THIS WOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE.
WE'VE GOT THE SAME NUMBER OF BATHROOMS, SAME NUMBER OF PEOPLE.
IT'S JUST CLASSIFIED AS TWO SEPARATE RESTROOM.
'CAUSE THERE'S NOT A ROOFTOP TOUCHING EACH OTHER.
EACH GETS CLASSIFIED AS A SAME SEPARATE RESIDENCE.
EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE SAME ADDRESS, THEY CAN'T HAVE THE SAME ADDRESS EITHER.
THEY'VE TO HAVE A SEP SEPARATE ADDRESS, THE 9 1 1 SYSTEM
[00:15:01]
ABOUT THAT.DO YOU HAVE A SEPARATE ADDRESS? NO, NO.
IT'LL, THEY'LL BE REQUIRED TO MAYBE HAVE THE SAME ADDRESS AND HAVE A, AN A OR A B OR, OR IT MIGHT BE A TWO DIGIT DIFFERENCE.
AND, AND ON THE INSURANCE POLICY, I THINK, UH, THAT PROBABLY DECLARED OUT BILL, NOT EVEN HOUSE, NOT EVEN A, YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE ME HAVING, I HAVE A, I HAVE A 3000 SQUARE FOOT HOUSE OUT OUTSIDE OF MY HOUSE AND IT DOESN'T HAVE A SEPARATE ADDRESS.
IT'S ONLY A, IT'S BASICALLY ABOUT GALLONS OF WATER.
USED PER DAY IS WHAT IT BOILS DOWN.
BUT I MEAN, WHAT I'M SAYING IS IT DOESN'T HAVE A SEPARATE, BUT THE INSURANCE DESCRIBES IT AS AN OUTBUILDING AND SO MINE'S AN OUTBUILDING.
OUTBUILDINGS DO NOT HAVE BE IT'S ONLY RESIDENTIAL.
WELL THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CLEAR THAT ON THEIR INSURANCE IT'S AN OUTBUILDING EVEN THOUGH IT'S A HOUSE, A FULL HOUSE OR A KID HAS OR WHATEVER CAN ASK A QUESTION SIR.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE FOOTAGE BETWEEN ONE STRUCTURE AND ANOTHER STRUCTURE.
IS THE THE GARAGE TIED TO THE HOUSE OR IS THAT A DETACHED STRUCTURE? IT'S A DETACHED GARAGE.
MY SON-IN-LAW IS A CAR ENTHUSIAST AND HE WANTED A GARAGE HE COULD PUT A LIFT IN.
AND IT ALSO SERVES AS A POOL HOUSE.
HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE LIVING IN THIS, THIS, THIS NEW STRUCTURE? MYSELF AND MY WIFE.
SO AS TO WHERE YOU COULD, IF YOURSELF, YOU CONFUSED THAT YOU COULD TIE THESE ALL THREE TOGETHER WITH THE ROOF SH I MEAN WOULD LOOK AS PRETTY AS WHAT YOU WOULD WANT IT TO LOOK.
ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD? NO.
I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION ON, I'LL MAKE, I'LL MAKE A MOTION.
DO I NEED TO READ THAT AGAIN? UM, JUST, YEAH, IF YOU DON'T MIND MAKE SURE.
I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO SAY THAT THE SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR THE LOT CAN MEET AND EXCEED ALL MINIMUM PUBLIC HEALTH STANDARD WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECTS TO PUBLIC WELFARE.
WE WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECTS TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL OR WELFARE AND BETTER HEALTH FOR THE COMMUNITY IF PROVIDED.
WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR.
HAVE A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER BARBER.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR DILIGENCE.
ITEM NUMBER FOUR, PERFORMANCE, PERFORMANCE OFFICIAL DUTIES REQUIREMENTS FOR TRANSPORTATION.
I KNOW I MAKE THEM REALLY TECHNICAL.
I END TO REQUEST, UH, NO ALL THIS IS IS THAT THE DA'S OFFICE HAS, UH, VEHICLES THAT OUR INVESTIGATORS DRIVE AS WELL AS OUR DA HERSELF AND THEY HAVE EXEMPT LICENSE PLATES.
AND WHENEVER YOU HAVE THAT SHERIFF'S OFFICE BROUGHT IT TO OUR ATTENTION THAT YOU USUALLY HAVE TO MARK WITH INSCRIPTIONS ON THE SIDE OF YOUR VEHICLE.
AND WE WOULD LIKE PERMISSION FROM THE COURT TO NOT HAVE THOSE INSCRIPTIONS ON THE SIDE.
AND THAT'S WHAT THIS ORDER WOULD DO.
THEY PROVIDE SAFETY FOR THOSE PEOPLE DRIVING CARS? I, YES, BECAUSE WITHOUT THAT ON THE, A LOT OF TIMES THEY'RE SERVING PAPERS AND SO IF YOU WANT TO ACTUALLY GET SOMEONE TO RECEIVE THAT SERVICE WHEN YOU ROLL UP IN A MARKED CAR, IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE 50.
ANYBODY PUT REGULAR TAGS ON TOO? WE DO A OH, OKAY.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T THANK THEM.
I WOULD, OKAY, I'LL MAKE A MOTION.
I HAVE A MOTION TO HAVE A SECOND.
MR. HUNT, ANY OTHER DISCUSSIONS? NO SIR.
AND NUMBER FIVE IS TO DISCUSS, CONSIDER PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY.
THREE LOBSTERS OF PROPERTY LOCATED ON NORTHEAST CORNER OF BLANC STREET, EAST HIGH STREET IN CARROLL, TEXAS, ADJACENT TO THE PRECINCT THREE COUNTY BARN FACILITY TO BE USED FOR THE PRECINCT THREE ROAD AND BRIDGE PURPOSES.
AND I BELIEVE THE COMMISSIONER BARBER HAS, UH, INVESTIGATED THIS AND DISCUSSED IT.
SO NO ONE CORRECTION, IT'S ACTUALLY THE SOUTHEAST CORNER, NOT THE NORTHEAST CORNER THERE AT UH, HIGH STREET.
[00:20:01]
AND BLANCHE WAS DIRECTLY BEHIND, UH, OUR COUNTY BARN IN PRECINCT GROUP AND IT'S ADJACENT TO OUR PROPERTY OF COURSE.AND UM, IT'S BEEN FOR SALE FOR A WHILE.
UH, THEY WERE ORIGINALLY, UH, THEY ORIGINALLY PUT IT OUT AT LIKE THE $50,000 AND NOW THEY, THEY CAME DOWN TO 39 A CHECK WITH THE TAX, UH, OFFICE, UH, AND UH, THE APPRAISAL OFFICE AND THEY APPRAISED IT, IT WOULD BE 38 7 IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN.
UM, WE ASKED, UH, OR I DID, I ASKED THE REAL ESTATE AGENT IF THE OWNER WOULD ENTERTAIN AROUND 35,000 AND SHE SAID ABSOLUTELY IMMEDIATELY.
UH, I THINK IT'S A GOOD PRICE FOR THE PROPERTY CONSIDERING WHAT OTHERS HAVE SOLD FOR AROUND THERE AND IT WOULD GIVE US EXTRA SPACE THAT WE COULD USE AND I JUST THINK IT'D BE GOOD IF WE OWNED THAT ENTIRE CORNER THERE INSTEAD OF JUST A CUTOUT PIECE OF IT.
SO I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE PURCHASE IT AT THE 35,000 OR MAKE AN OFFER TO PURCHASE IT AT 35,000.
I, ALLEN DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? THIS IS I THINK A REALLY GOOD NIGHT FOR US.
HE'LL AND IF IT GIVES US THAT ENTIRE FREE, WELL THAT ENTIRE AREA.
YEAH, I GUESS YOU PUT A FENCE AROUND.
WE'RE GONNA MOVE THE FENCE UP, UH, TO COVER.
DOES LEGAL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT UH, WE DON'T, UH, THE COMMISSIONER GOT A PRIZE UNDERNEATH WHAT THE APPRAISAL WAS, SO I, WE FEEL LIKE THAT'S, THAT'S FAIR FOR OUR TAX DOLLARS AND THEN KAREN TO WORK ON THE CONTRACT AS SOON AS WE GET THE UPDATED INFORMATION.
BUT I CAN'T, I THINK AUDITOR MAY HAVE A QUESTION.
I DID A LINE THAT TRANSFER TO GET YOU TO APPROVE HIS PURCHASE.
UM, AND I PUT 50,000 IN PURCHASE PROPERTY OUTTA PRECINCT BREEZE,
ALRIGHT, WE'LL HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.
UH, ITEM NUMBER SIX IS TO DISCUSS, CONSIDER PURCHASING A 2018 FREIGHT LINER DISTRIBUTOR TRUCK FROM RB EVERETT IN THE AMOUNT OF $165,932 FOR A ROAD AND BRIDGE PRECINCT.
NUMBER THREE, UTILIZING BY BOARD CONTRACT NUMBER FIVE 15 DASH 16.
UH, AND THIS PURCHASE IS TO REPLACE THE PURCHASE APPROVED IN COURT ON JANUARY THE 22ND, 18 OR 2018 PETERBILT FOR 165,000 2 70 20 8 CENTS FROM, UH, RUSH TRUCKS.
AND DUE TO THE DELIVERY CONFLICT, RIGHT? UM, YEAH, ONCE WE GOT ALL THAT APPROVED, UH, THEN THEY CALLED US AND TOLD US THAT THE ACTUAL BILL DATE WOULDN'T BE UNTIL JULY, WHICH MEANS WE MAY NOT RECEIVE IT UNTIL THE FALL.
AND UH, WE SAID THE SEASONS ONLY THAT'S RIGHT.
THAT, THAT, THAT WOULDN'T HELP US.
SO, UH, THIS OTHER ONE CAME, UH, CAME UP AND IT'S, IN MY OPINION IT'S BETTER BY ANYWAY BECAUSE UH, MY MECHANIC LIKES THE FREIGHT LINE BETTER THAN THE PETERBILT.
BUT ALSO THIS UNIT ACTUALLY HAS A HEATER, AN INLINE HEATER, UH, FOR THE TANK.
UH, SO IT KEEPS IT FROM FREEZING UP AND COOLER WEATHER AND EVERYTHING OTHER THAN HEATER? NO, DIDN'T, YEAH, I I DIDN'T GOT THE SPECS BACK ON.
SO THE DIFFERENCE WAS LIKE I THINK 700, 7 20 $4 MORE BUT WE GOTTA HAVE IT DELIVERY WILL BE QUICK.
FINANCING YOUR PAYING CARD, UH, OUTTA YOUR BUDGET.
WE GOTTA WORK OUT KAREN, IF YOU GOT ALL THAT RIGHT.
I HAD ARRANGED FINANCING FOR UH, THE PETER BELT WITH BANKCORP, HAD ALL THE PAPERWORK READY AND YESTERDAY I WAS LOOKING AT THE AGENDA AND I WENT, WHAT IS THIS? AND NOBODY INCLUDED ME.
YEAH, BANK COURT IS A JEWEL BECAUSE THEY SENT ME THIS MORNING A NEW CONTRACT FOR THE FREIGHT LINER AT THE RIGHT AMOUNT AND I'VE GOT IT READY FOR THE JUDGE'S SIGNATURE.
THANK YOU THAT SO DID YOU PUT THAT IN THE MOTION? I MAKE MOTION.
DO HAVE A SECOND WITH THE APPROPRIATE FINANCING CREW BANK BOARD SECONDED IT.
UH, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
A OPPOSED? I'M SORRY, WHO WAS THE SECOND? YEAH WHO WAS THE SECOND? I SECOND HE MADE THE MOTION I THINK.
[00:25:02]
NEXT ITEM IS NUMBER SEVEN.THAT'S TO DISCUSS CENTER APPROVING LINE ITEM TRANSFER.
JUST THE ONE YOU PRIOR TO THE MEETING PURCHASE A PROPERTY AND RELEASE PAYMENTS OF INTEREST.
YEAH, THE ONLY QUESTION I HAD ON THE LINE TRANSFERS.
IF WHEN WE SETTLED ON THE PROPERTY WILL THAT MONEY THAT WE'RE TRANSFERRING INTO THE PURCHASING PROPERTY, WILL THAT GO BACK TO CONTINGENCY? IT COMES OUTTA HIS CONTINGENCY, NOT THE GENERAL FUND.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THE LINE OUT TRANSFERS? I THINK THEY WERE ALL PRETTY WELL EXPLAINED ON THE INFORMATION WE GOT.
MOTION COMMISSIONER ALLEN SECOND MOTION.
OPPOSED? NEXT ITEM IS TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER CLAIM FOR PAYMENT A YES.
UH, CLAIMS FOR PAYMENT ARE $999,805 AND 76 CENTS.
THE MAIN EXPENDITURE WAS EMPLOYEE INSURANCE OF THE 517,000.
BUT UM, ALL THE OTHERS WERE, YOU KNOW, T AND T INVOICE FOR ANNEX CONSTRUCTION WAS 83 AND WE HAD SOME ROAD MATERIALS FOR PRECINCT ONE AND THREE AT 87 THAT THE OTHER SEEMED TO BE PRETTY NORMAL.
I DO HAVE CHECKS, TWO CHECKS IN THIS RUN THAT I'M HAVING YOU APPROVE, BUT I'M NOT GONNA RELEASE THOSE TWO CHECKS.
I'M HOLDING THOSE TWO CHECKS TILL I MAKE SURE THAT THE CHECK FROM THE, UH, SUBDIVISION UNDER PRECINCT TWO HAS ACTUALLY CLEARED THE BANK AND HADN'T GOT RETURNED.
SO, UM, I'M HOLDING THOSE TWO CHECKS TILL NEXT WEEK AND I'LL HOLD THEM IN MY OFFICE AND THEY WON'T BE STAMPED WITH SIGNATURE UNTIL I'M SURE THAT WE HAVE NO MONEY.
I WAS ASKED TO DO THAT, SO I'M DOING THAT.
YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON THE FOR PAPER? THANKS FOR GIVING THOSE TO US.
AND, UH, DO WE HAVE TIME TO REVIEW THEM? THE DISCUSSION? ALL IN? I NEED A MOTION I GUESS.
COMMISSIONER, ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
MOTION COMMISSIONER SECOND MOTION.
ALL SAY WHAT SCARES ME AT YEAH.
