Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
commissioners.
Good
morning,
we're
going
to
start
with
the
new
pest
and
mosquito
adam
schroeder
is
the
director
of
we
control
pest
abatement
and
mosquito
abatement.
Noxious
weed
control
enforces
idaho's
noxious
weed
law
and
works
to
control
or
eradicate
noxious
weeds
found
within
ada
county.
There
are
currently
36
out
of
76
state
designated
weed
species
found
within
ada
county
pest
abatement,
provides
pest
control,
services
to
land
owners
living
within
the
pest
abatement,
district,
festivatement
crews
manage
gopher
and
rock
chuck
infestations
that
threaten
agriculture
or
infrastructure
on
public
and
private
lands.
B
Mosquito
abatement
provides
mosquito
surveillance,
monitoring
and
control
services
to
taxpayers
living
within
the
mosquito
abatement.
District.
Mosquito
abatement
works
within
an
integrated
pest
management
plan
to
mitigate
the
impact
of
west
nile
virus
viruses
and
other
vector-borne
diseases
in
ada.
County
weed
is
a
special
levy
fund,
part
of
that
three
percent
cap
off
property
taxes,
budget
submitted
for
fy
23
at
1,
280
698
165
000.
Over
their
appropriation
total
there
are
supplementals
in
the
operating
side.
These
are
all
ongoing
costs.
B
pest
is
one
of
your
special
taxing
districts,
so
they
have
their
own
three
percent
budget
for
fy23,
submitted
at
765
272
write
on
their
appropriation
total.
So
therefore,
they
have
no
supplementals
and
see
their
budget
to
actual
history,
and
the
number
of
employees
at
two
pest
is
one
of
the
other
special
taxing
districts
that
you
have
budget
for.
Fy
23
submitted
at
one
million
four
hundred
and
seventy
seven
thousand
three
seven
three
thirty
seven
one
hundred
thousand
over
their
appropriation
total-
and
this
is
for
a
supplemental
for
the
emergency
aerial
application
and
operations.
C
I
would
also
like
at
this
time
to
recognize
the
employees
of
wheat
pest
mosquito
who
have
continued
to
endure
and
strive
to
be
better
in
all
aspects
of
service
to
the
county.
They
are
outstanding
people
and
I
am
grateful
to
represent
them
today.
I
would
especially
like
to
thank
desiree
keaney
and
diana
baim
for
their
help
with
this
presentation
and
for
all
of
the
work
they
do
every
day
to
keep
us
running
also
on
behalf
of
the
employees.
This
morning,
I
would
like
to
thank
you
for
your
consideration
of
any
cola.
C
Merit
increases
in
wage
that
you
would
consider
during
this
budget
session.
I
know
that
we
have
several
of
our
folks
who
drive
more
than
60
miles
a
day
to
come
to
work
for
us.
They
live
in
gem,
county,
payette,
county
canyon,
county,
even
elmore
county,
and
they
do
everything
they
can
to
afford
the
gas
to
come
to
work
for
us.
So
I
know
that
anything
that
you
guys
that
you
as
a
board
would
consider
as
far
as
cola
goes,
would
be
very
well
received,
and
thank
you
for
that
consideration.
C
I
apologize
in
advance.
I
know
that
a
lot
of
these
slides
are
review
for
you,
commissioners,
mr
chairman,
but
I
think
it's
important
to
put
into
context
our
funding
sources
and
our
scope
of
services
when
we
talk
about
these
three
departments
so
that
we
understand
and
we're
measuring
apples
to
apples
when
we
talk
about
budget
numbers,
so
here's
an
outline
of
what
I
prepared
for
you
this
morning.
I
will
begin
with
a
background
for
the
agency.
C
C
We
are
one
of
very
few
agencies
in
the
nation
that
has
a
structure
where
special
taxing
districts,
cohabitate
with
general
fund
departments
in
animal
and
insect
abatement,
even
though
the
business
processes
and
legal
requirements
for
are
each
different
for
each
department,
we
can
combine
our
resources
and
increase
our
capabilities,
allow
for
greater
efficiency
and
get
better
results
with
lower
costs
of
the
citizens
of
ada
county.
Through
our
shared
efforts,
weed
pest
mosquito
has
22
full-time
employees.
There
are
nine
full-time
folks
who
work
in
knox.
C
C
Our
directives
are
simple:
we
comply
with
all
laws,
rules,
regulations
and
codes,
particularly
as
they
pertain
to
the
application
of
pesticides,
as
well
as
supporting
the
rights
of
property
owners
and
holding
folks
accountable
to
responsible
stewardship
of
their
lands.
We
identified
and
identify
noxious
weeds.
We
currently
have
37
of
71
prohibited
species
occurring
in
ada
county,
so
once
we
find
them,
we
make
plans
to
control
each
species
according
to
a
predefined
set
of
actions
and
guidelines
listed
in
our
action
plan.
C
C
I'd
like
to
share
with
the
board
a
few
key
statistics
from
fiscal
year
2021
we
took
over
400
calls
for
weed
control
and
created
over
eighteen
hundred
work
orders,
either
by
result
of
a
phone
call
or
other
contact.
We
completed
fourteen
over
fourteen
hundred
of
those
work,
orders
on
public
and
private
lands.
C
The
heat
map
on
this
slide
illustrates
where
the
demand
from
our
services
come
comes
from.
We
get
a
lot
of
calls
in
the
north
eagle
area
for
semi-agricultural
work
along
the
highway
44
corridor
for
a
range
of
services
in
garden,
city,
boise
and
meridian,
for
puncture
vine
control
and
in
southern
ada
county
for
pasture
work.
C
In
terms
of
production,
we
mapped
more
than
330
new
noxious
weed
infestations
within
the
county,
and
you
might
notice
that
acronym
edr
that
stands
for
early
detection,
rapid
response.
These
are
noxious.
Sweden,
infestations
that
are
new
to
ada,
county
or
not
currently
established
edr
infestations
are
our
highest
priority
for
control
and
eradication,
and
we
currently
have
eight
edrrr
weed
species
that
we
are
working
on.
You've
documented
over
300
noxious
weed
complaints
from
the
public
sent
290
letters
and
have
created
over
350
work
orders
from
that
have
stemmed
from
those
complaints.
C
I
want
to
thank
dr
barbara
erder
and
dr
and
bolt
both
who
are
well-regarded
botanists
for
identifying
and
reporting
an
infestation
of
kogan
grass
growing
near
camelsback
park
in
the
boise
foothills.
With
our
support.
This
plant
has
just
been
temporarily
temporarily
listed
on
the
noxious
weed
list
by
isda.
C
This
plant
is
considered
highly
invasive
and
noxious
in
the
southeast,
southeastern
united
states,
and,
up
to
this
point,
the
furthest
western
detection
of
this
plant
was
in
texas.
So
we
are
very
grateful
for
the
support
of
citizens
who
help
us
identify
and
take
action
on
invasive
plants
before
they
become
a
huge
problem.
C
In
terms
of
cooperation,
I
would
like
to
highlight
some
of
the
relationships
that
we've
fostered
with
other
public
age
public
agencies
to
control
noxious
weeds.
Every
year
we
do
between
fifteen
and
twenty
thousand
dollars
of
noxious
weed
survey
and
control
work
through
blm
grants.
We
help
federal
agencies,
perform
invasive
weed,
control,
studies
and
experiments.
C
C
We
work
closely
with
directors,
coburg
and
batista
to
control
noxious
weeds
in
public
spaces.
Like
the
greenbelt
in
ladybird
park,
we
work
with
solid
waste
and
the
sheriff's
office
to
clear
the
roadsides
and
infrastructure
access
areas.
We
also
have
improved
our
relationships
with
achd
and
the
irrigation
districts
in
efforts
to
control
noxious
weeds
in
public
rights,
of
way
on
canal
easements
and
in
areas
where
noxious
weeds
are
spreading
from
private
land
onto
the
public
domain.
C
C
Last
year
I
increased
the
fuel
budget
by
about
15
percent
and
sadly
it
was
not
close
to
being
enough
to
keep
the
tanks
full.
As
of
wednesday,
we
have
overspent.
This
line
have
had
to
transfer
money
from
the
nox
suite
control
budget
into
the
fuel
line,
so
that
we
could
cover
and
make
sure
that
the
tanks
are
full.
C
C
Last
year
we
had
a
cip
for
purchasing
and
installing
new
backup
generators
for
our
facility.
The
project
was
initially
budgeted
at
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
the
board
approved
it
for
fy
22.
However,
when
the
project
went
to
bed,
the
lowest
bidder
came
in
at
around
five
hundred
thousand
dollars,
so
we
have
asked
operations
to
postpone
the
project
until
we
can
adequately
budget
for
it.
I'd
like
to
shout
out
to
bob
perkins
and
all
the
procurement
folks
bruce
crisco
josh
brown
and
everyone
who
helped
us
with
this
and
sorry.
We
couldn't
move
forward
on
that.
C
So
for
fy23
we
have
three
supplemental
requests,
the
first
being
the
fuel
line
supplemental.
I
just
spoke
about
the
second
supplemental:
that's
ongoing
for
fleet
vehicle
replacement,
our
current
fleet
vehicles
and
noxious
weed
control
age.
A
range
in
age.
Excuse
me
from
seven
to
fifteen
years
old
and
many
are
in
need
of
replacement.
C
We
would
like
to
replace
two
vehicles
per
year
and
that's
why
we're
asking
for
a
supplemental
in
the
amount
of
one
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
that?
The
last
supplement,
supplemental
request
is
to
allow
for
heavy
equipment
contracting.
This
is
to
serve
our
overall
mission
of
integrated
pest
management.
That
is
utilizing
several
different
methods
of
preventing
and
controlling
noxious
weed
infestations,
and
we
would
like
to
have
the
flexibility
to
hire
contractors
to
provide
mechanical
control
options
for
infestations.
That
would
allow
for
greater
control
and
also
for
sensitive
areas
where
herbicides
might
not
be
the
best
choice.
C
This
is
our
overall
budget
submission.
It's
important
to
note
that,
with
the
help
of
hr,
we
have
included
substantial
market
adjustments
for
all
field
positions.
These
increases
have
been
included
within
the
flat
budget
for
personnel,
which
is
respectfully
submitted
at
seven
hundred
and
fifty
eight
thousand
nine
hundred
ninety
one
dollars.
At
this
time.
I
would
like
to
thank
director,
cali
josh
nielsen,
jessica,
donald,
andrea
byrne
and
taya
molino
for
their
help
with
compensation
analysis
and
for
just
being
awesome.
C
Overall,
our
operating
request
is
521
thousand
seven
hundred
seven
dollars,
bringing
the
total
request
to
one
million
two
hundred.
Eighty
thousand
six
hundred
and
ninety
eight
dollars
with
supplementals
included
fund
balance
for
this
department
is
just
over
one
million
dollars
if
it
pleases
the
board,
and
there
are
no
questions
about
knox.
Suite
control,
we'll
move
on
to
pest.
A
C
Eda
county
pest
abatement
district
is
a
special
taxing
district
that
includes
all
unincorporated
areas
of
the
ada
county,
highlighted
on
the
map
in
blue
the
pa.
The
pid
excuse
me
is
tasked
with
controlling
pocket,
gopher
and
rock
chuck
infestations
on
private
land
within
the
894
square
mile
district.
C
This
slide
shows
on
the
left.
There
are
pocket
gophers
there
and
then
that's
a
pocket,
gopher
mound
right
below
that,
and
then
the
yellow
bellied
marmot
on
the
top
right,
followed
down
below.
You
can
see
two
marmots
that
have
burrowed
under
a
homeowner's
porch
right
there
and
that's
typically
what
they
do
they
like
to
get
around
facilities
or
homes
or
outbuildings,
and
they
like
to
dig
around
and
mess
with
foundations
or
chew
up
the
wires
in
your
car.
C
C
C
Here's
a
short
summer,
the
work
we
did
in
fy21
we
completed
over
2000
work
orders,
including
2200
inspections
with
5600
acres
treated.
The
number
of
gophers
we
trapped
are
up
80
percent
from
fy20,
and
I
think
we
can
attribute
that
to
the
impressive
skill
sets
are
that
our
returning
technicians
have
developed
the
number
of
rock
chuck
work
orders
and
out
of
district
calls
we
are
documenting,
is
holding
steady
around
150
each.
C
C
We
were
fortunate
to
have
some
of
our
more
experienced
technicians
return
and
I'm
glad
to
say
that
we
have
had
stable
leadership
at
the
division
coordinator
position.
That's
chris
culley,
who
has
helped
us,
do
more
with
less
we're
all
very
proud
of
the
extra
hustle
and
commitment
shown
by
our
field
technicians
to
get
as
much
work
done
as
they
did.
C
C
Within
the
mosquito
abatement
district,
there
are
three
programs
of
service
the
surveillance
program
traps
and
speciates
mosquitoes
and
identifies
hot
spots
of
mosquito
activity,
while
testing
for
presence
of
disease.
The
larvicide
program
treats
mosquito
breeding
sites
throughout
the
district
to
prevent
hatching
of
adult
mosquitoes.
C
We
actively
monitor
and
surveil
mosquito
populations
throughout
the
district
for
high
mosquito
counts
and
for
presence
of
disease.
We
also
respond
to
requests
for
service
from
our
district
residents
and
you'll,
see
that
we
place
a
high
priority
on
educating
not
only
our
district
residents,
but
also
those
folks
who
reside
with
that
outside
the
district
or
who
follow
us
on
social
media.
C
Our
larvicide
operations
are
focused
on
finding
sites
throughout
the
district
that
could
harbor
mosquito
development
and
treating
them
with
the
naturally
occurring
bacteria
to
kill
the
larvae.
We
are
currently
monitoring
over
48
000,
active
development
sites
and
we're
we
have
identified
over
3
700
new
sites.
In
fy21
we
completed
over
99
000
inspections
and
over
61
000
treatments.
Where
larva
had
been
detected.
C
We
responded
to
over
400
public
service
requests
and
treated
over
900
acres
in
total,
notably,
we
had
decrease
in
decreases
in
productivity
values
for
inspections
and
treatments
completed,
which
is
because,
like
pests,
we
were
working
with
about
half
of
our
normal
or
budgeted
staff
levels
for
all
of
our
seasonal
field.
Technicians.
C
Having
said
that,
we
increased
the
number
of
new
sites,
mapped
in
active
sites,
monitors
and
had
and
monitored,
and
had
very
little
change
in
ground
acres
treated
and
because
we
were
short
staffed,
we
lacked.
We
asked
a
lot
of
our
full-time
folks
last
year
and
they
all
stepped
up
to
the
plate.
They
worked
a
ton
of
overtime.
They
also
worked
across
all
three
programs
gaining
new
skill
sets
and
operational
knowledge
throughout
the
process.
C
C
C
C
In
total,
we
treated
over
71
000
ground
acres
to
control
adult
flying
mosquitoes
due
to
the
high
pressure
of
mosquitoes
throughout
the
season.
We
had
to
do
more
fogging
than
we
usually
would.
Although
our
public
request
did
not
increase
much,
we
created
a
lot
more
service
requests
due
to
the
high
west
nile
prevalence
and
high
numbers
of
qlex
mosquitoes
being
trapped
throughout
the
district.
C
C
I
also
wanted
to
talk
about
why
we
do
aerolap
aerial
applications
in
this
slide.
Each
one
of
the
x-axis
columns
represents
a
trap
that
was
placed
within
the
aerial
treatment
block
for
a
total
of
32
trap
sites.
The
dark
blue
line
represents
the
count
of
culex
mosquitoes
traps
trapped
prior
to
the
aerial
for
each
site,
and
the
light
blue
line
represents
the
number
of
culex
mosquitoes
trapped
after
the
aerial
application.
C
And
also,
as
you're
aware,
we
had
a
couple
of
our
social
media
posts
about
the
treatment
go
viral
and
we
received
some
pushback
from
members
of
the
community
who
were
opposed
to
the
aerial
application,
because
we
are
always
working
to
increase
our
levels
of
service
and
community
engagement.
I
had
our
program
and
education
specialists
do
a
deep
dive
on
the
analytics
of
the
social
media
posts,
and
here
are
a
few
things
that
we
learned.
C
We
were
interviewed
five
times
on
local
media
sources
to
provide
information
on
the
aerial
one
of
our
facebook
posts
went
viral,
reaching
195,
unique,
195
000
unique
accounts.
We
had
3639
individual
reactions
to
our
post.
Those
are
the
like
the
heart,
the
angry
or
the
sad
face,
and
of
all
of
those
reactions.
Only
588
were
angry
or
sad
face,
which
corresponds
to
being
about
16
percent
of
all
reactions.
C
Over
5000
comments
were
made
on
our
posts,
and
708
of
them
were
considered
to
be
negative.
That's
either
opposed
to
the
aerial
opposed
to
pesticides
or
opposed
to
our
operations
in
general
and
more
than
4
100
of
the
comments
were
positive
or
neutral.
In
demeanor,
when
we
looked
at
all
the
negative
comments,
we
found
that
they
had
originated
from
only
159
unique
accounts.
C
Our
operating
request
is
nine
hundred
and
thirteen
thousand
five
hundred
and
twenty
two
dollars,
and
we
have
one
supplemental
request
for
an
aerial
application,
contingency
at
one
hundred
thousand,
bringing
the
total
request
to
one
million
four
hundred.
Seventy
seven
thousand
three
hundred
thirty
seven
dollars
the
fund
balance
for
the
mad
stands
at
two
point:
one
million
dollars.
C
On
monday
morning,
we
heard
from
director
steven
o'mara,
he
spoke
about
our
alamo
project
and
it
stands
for
abatement,
logistics
and
mapping
operations,
and
you
will
remember
it,
commissioner
davidson
thank
you.
He
is,
of
course,
very
humble
about
the
accomplishments
of
his
amazing
team.
I
wanted
to
bring
some
perspective
from
our
point
of
view
on
what
this
program
is
and
what
it'll
do
for
us.
C
Director
o'mara
did
correctly
say
that
there's
nothing
like
it
in
the
abatement
software
world,
which
is
true,
it
is
state
of
the
art
and
will
only
get
better
as
time
goes
on.
The
biggest
distinction
that
I
would
like
to
make
is
that
this
is
not
just
one
single
program.
The
alamo
project
includes
gis
based
client
maintenance
and
the
mobile
data
collection
platforms
that
feed
into
it.
So
alamo
serves
as
a
central
hub
of
information,
and
there
are
several
programming
components,
such
as
pest
mobile,
weed,
mobile
compliance,
noxious
weed
free
forage
mapping,
customer
portal.
C
C
This
slide
will
hopefully
clarify
what
I'm
trying
to
communicate
say
we
have
created
a
work
order
in
alamo
and
we
have
assigned
it
to
a
noxious
weed
control
field.
Technician.
Weed
mobile
will
display
all
the
work
order,
information
and
record
inspection
data.
That
information
will
also
be
sent
to
the
computers
located
in
the
field
service
field
vehicles,
so
that
when
the
applicator
goes
to
complete
the
work,
all
of
the
application
data
will
be
migrated
from
the
field
computer
to
weed
mobile,
which
will
then
sync
to
alamo
for
review
approval
and
billing.
C
C
Our
current
legacy
program
is
called
greenweed
and
pest
and
has
been
our
software
since
2002,
and
it
is
end
of
life.
It
will
no
longer
be
supported
here
soon.
So,
if
end
of
life
comes
this
year
would
be
a
20-year
program
if
alamo
lasts
20
years,
and
we
broke
down
the
550
000
cost
for
each
department
and
paid
that
out
as
yearly
increments,
we
would
pay
around
27
500
per
department
for
programming
and
I'll
just
say
for
comparison.
C
The
traditional
route
for
most
abatement
districts
or
weed
control
departments
is
to
hire
one
or
two
gis
analysts
to
handle
integrations
and
to
try
to
put
all
this
information
into
spatial
formats.
If
we
were
to
hire
two
gis
analysts
to
work
for
us
full
time,
they
couldn't
do
what
alamo
and
all
the
components
do
it's
just
impossible.
C
C
So
I
would
like
to
thank
the
fine
folks
again
in
it
and
gis
who
are
involved
with
this
project.
That's
director
o'mara
todd,
buchanan,
deborah
fulkerson,
emily
weiss,
matthew,
lee
tom
lightfoot,
dr
amy
herrig,
rich
eveland,
aaron
khan,
but
most
of
our
influen
infinitely
talented
development
team,
that's
colt,
wright,
scott
thomas
wesley
stevens
and
a
guy
who
has
devoted
the
last
four
years
of
his
life
to
this
project
and
has
proven
to
be
a
one-of-a-kind
employee
for
ada
county.
That's
kenneth
hatke!
So
thank
you
all.
C
Education
is
the
single
most
important
factor
in
preventing
weed
pests
and
mosquito
populations
from
causing
harm
the
more
folks
we
can
educate
about
how
to
identify
problem
weeds
where
to
find
mosquito
development
sites
and
what
gopher
holes
look
like.
The
more
folks
folks
can
feel
empowered
to
help
mitigate
these
pests
on
their
own
or
neighboring
properties.
C
We
work
hard
to
engage
the
public,
including
our
own
trade
associations.
We
give
tours
we
educate
classes.
We
show
up
to
events
with
our
education
trailer.
We
give
out
goat
head
balloons
to
kids,
you
can
see
on
the
on
the
right
there
and
we
post
how-to
videos
on
our
youtube
page
and
update
the
community
with
our
website
and
social
media
pages,
not
to
mention
hanging
out
every
year
at
the
western,
idaho,
fair
eating,
prana
pups
with
our
good
friend,
mr
bob
batista,
who
you'll
hear
from
next.
E
C
Mr
chairman,
commissioner,
davidson
so
a
couple
of
different
answers
to
that
question.
As
far
as
our
field
full-time
folks,
full-time
benefited,
folks
we're
having
absolutely
some
serious
troubles
this
year,
especially
in
noxious
weed
control,
where
we
have
two
of
six
field
positions.
Working
right
now,
that's
three
vacancies.
We
just
made
an
offer
on
one
position
and
then
one
position,
who's
also
kind
of
been
out
for
family
issues.
C
C
Unfortunately,
they're
getting
paid
in
some
cases
more
than
our
full-time
folks
in
order
to
just
get
folks
in
the
building
and
and
make
sure
that
we
can
perform
the
services
that
we
need
to,
particularly
in
mosquito
abatement,
and
so
we
are
seeing
better
numbers
as
far
as
staffing
goes
in
mosquito
abatement
probably
have
about
three
or
four
positions
that
are
still
open.
However,
pest
abatement
is
staying.
Steady
around
70
capacity
at
staffing
needs
right
now,.
C
Just
offered
a
candidate
excuse
me,
mr
chairman,
commissioner,
davidson
we
just
offered
a
candidate
at
1407
for
an
hourly
wage,
which
is
which
will,
if
the
board
chooses
to
approve
this
this
budget,
those
those
wages,
will
increase
drastically.
We'll
move
from
about
that
1407
starting
wage
to
about
seventeen
dollars
and
that's
included
within
the
flat
personnel
request
for
all
three.
E
C
Mr
chairman,
commissioner
davidson
so
basically
what
we'd
like
to
do
is
be
able
to
hire
some
contract
mowers
or
diskers
or
or
custom
tractor
works,
so
that
if
we
have
large-scale
infestations
where
noxious
weed
control
infestations
can
be
controlled.
Mechanically
we'd
like
to
do
a
little
bit
more
of
that,
as
opposed
to
spraying
oversights,
where
maybe
they're
not
welcome
or
maybe
they're,
not
a
good
choice.
C
Mr
chairman,
commissioner,
davidson
yes,
that's
all
part
of
our
noxious
weed
compliance
program
if
we
do
locate
a
noxious
weed
infestation
and
we
find
that
the
landowner
is
not
compliant
we'll
send
him
a
letter
saying
you
have
five
days
to
contact
us
if
they
do
not
contact
us,
then
we'll
plan
for
control
of
those
noxious
wheat
infestations,
and
we
will
build
a
landowner
what
it
costs
to
abate
those
infestations.
If
they
don't
pay,
then
we
lean
their
property.
So
that's
all
part
of
the
idaho
noxious
weed
law.
So
that's.
Why
we're
the
enforcement
agents.
C
A
few
yes,
sir,
mr
chairman,
commissioner
davidson
yes,
we
find
we'd
like
to
have
the
flexibility
at
least
to
offer
some
of
those
where
the
noxious,
where
it
makes
sense.
I
would
say
you
know
we
can't
always
offer
those,
because
sometimes
when
we're
talking
about
particularly
infestations,
like
white
top,
that's
a
rhizomatous
plant.
So
if
you
disc
it
or
mow
it,
it
just
gets
worse
the
next
year.
C
E
All
right
well,
thank
you
for
your
presentation.
I
appreciate
all
the
good
work
you're
doing
for
the
county
and
keeping
us
mosquito-free.
I
know
that's
definitely
a
big
quality
of
life
issue,
especially
if
you
come
from
a
place
that
has
a
lot
of
mosquitoes.
It's
you
know
really
noticeable
difference.
A
D
D
Mr
chair,
yes,
I
just
wanted
to
you-
know
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
spraying,
the
the
west
nile.
I
think
you
know
this
department
is
kind
of
the
one
of
the
more
quiet
departments
until
it's
not
and
actually
having.
Two
deaths
from
west
nile
is
just
devastating
to
the
families,
and
so
I
think
you
know
that
we
could
do
a
much
better
job,
maybe
with
psas
and
social
media.
Maybe
we
could
get
together
with
elizabeth
and
figure
out
if
people
understand
that
over
watering
is
a
big
part
of
this
problem.
D
That
would
also
help
help
with
the
drought
conditions
that
we're
experiencing,
but
I
don't
think
people
put
two
and
two
together:
it's
not
just
that
they
show
up
randomly,
there's
things
that
people
can
do
to
help
prevent
this
and
just
raise
the
awareness
in
in
what
products
you
can
use,
because
I
just
don't
think
two
deaths
are
acceptable
for
our
county.
I
think
we
can.
We
can
do
a
better
job
communicating,
so
I
think
the
whole
board
would
be
behind
you
and
putting
together,
like
I
said,
some
psas,
especially
the
right
timing.

Moving
on
bob
batista
has
been
the
director
for
expo
idaho
for
22
years,
expo
idaho,
is
an
enterprise
fund
and
receives
no
tax
support
and
consists
of
two
departments.
Fair
and
interim
events
expo
idaho
is
located
on
the
northwest
corner
of
shinden
and
glenwood.
The
campus
footprint
consists
of
240
acres
that
encompasses
80
thousand
square
feet
are
eighty
thousand
square
foot
expo
building
and
several
smaller
buildings
and
barns.
There's
a
grandstand
seating
for
four
thousand
people,
4
500
spaces
for
vehicles
to
park
and
a
225
slip
rb
park
next
to
the
boise
river.
B
Interim
events
are
activities
or
shows
and
gatherings
that
occur.
The
remainder
of
the
year
when
the
western,
idaho,
fair,
is
not
in
progress.
There
are
approximately
150
event.
Interim
events.
Each
year
equating
to
260
event
days
per
year.
Some
of
the
events
include
the
sportsman,
show
roadster,
show
flea
market
ski
swap,
home
and

B
Show
health,
fair

seven

eight

four
hundred
one
million
two

and
fifty
one

above
their
adopted
budget
for
the
prior

This
is
covered
with
increased
revenue,
their
budget
to
actual
over
the
course
from
18
to
23
and
the
number
of
employees
I'd
like
to
introduce
bob
batista
who
will
talk
about
expo's
budget.
A
G
G
G
I'd
also
like
to
thank
a
lot
of
the
other
departments
that
will
interact
with
me
and
help
me
get
through
some
of
the
times
that
been
really
tough
this
past
year
and
the
commissioners.
Your
support
as
well.
I'd
also
like
to
give
a
shout
out
to
kathleen
graves.
She's,
always
been
very
helpful
with
me.
We
are
a
little
bit
different
department
than
the
regular
county
departments.
We
kind
of
operate
under
a
different
philosophy
and
we're
we're
a
department
that
provides
more
entertainment
than
generally
county
services.
G
G
G
As
you
can
see.
We
were
the
first
ones
in
that
area.
They
built
up
around
us,
and
so
we
have
challenges
with
being
the
first
one
there
and
as
the
community
developed
around
us,
I
keep
with
my
slides.
So
I
can
keep
the
notes,
chin
and
would
be
very
down
in
this
corner.
Here
you
can
see
that
even
plantation
and
all
those
places
along
the
river
were
not
even
developed
at
the
time.
G
Our
mission
expo
idaho,
is
a
self-sustaining
multi-purpose,
year-round
venue
that
hosts
events,
fostering
community
business,
agriculture
and
entertainment
in
the
treasure
valley,
the
western,
idaho,
fair.
We
bring
citizens
of
ada
county
and
the
treasure
valley,
together
through
idaho
community
agricultural
education,
competitions
for
youth
and
adult
development,
entertainment
demonstrations
and
participate
in
participation
in
idaho's
largest
event.
G
G
Long-Range
goals,
for
the
western
fair
excuse
me
is
to
be
a
self-sustaining
event
that
have
a
minimum
of
three
thousand
competitors
and
fifteen
thousand
exhibitors
each
year.
At
the
fair
we
provide
agricultural
education
to
the
greater
community,
the
greater
treasure
valley
community
you'll,
see.
I
have
a
lot
of
time,
a
lot
of
words
in
here
about
community.
We
are
very
community
community
community
based
oriented.
G
We
have
an
annual
attendance
of
275
000
people,
which
makes
us
the
largest
event
in
the
state.
We
provide
community
programs
to
our
youth
and
adult
and
to
our
youth
and
adult
development.
Excuse
me
I'm
having
a
hard
time
saying
that
we
ensure
that
the
citizens
of
ada
county
are
given
the
opportunity
to
celebrate
their
community
each
year
at
the
end
of
the
year
as
the
end
of
summer
event,.
G
G
We
continue
to
maintain
our
variety
park
facility
at
a
90
occupancy.
We
look
to
maintain
and
grow
the
western,
idaho,
fair
attendance
by
3
each
year
we
look
to
increase.
The
1.2
million
foot
falls
that
attend
use,
participate
or
walk
through
the
expo
idaho
grounds.
Each
year
we
continue
to
pursue
market
value,
pay
for
all
our
employees
as
we
deal
with
a
shortage
of
labor
goods
and
supply
chain
issues.
This
is
an
issue
that
you
folks
have
heard
pretty
consistently
through.
All
of
our
other
departments.
G
G
G
G
Some
accomplishments
that
we
are
kind
of
proud
of
we
helped
out
with
virtually
little
or
no
cost
to
united
way.
A
lot
of
people
don't
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
homeless
students
that
do
not
have
some
of
the
amenities
they
need
for
basic
life,
so
they
put
the
other
baskets
for
them
at
the
expo.
I
know
we
continue
to
help
with
the
food
bank,
the
thanksgiving
baskets.
G
G
G
G
Ada
county
sheriff's
office
participates
in
a
lot
of
free
training
out
at
the
fairgrounds.
We
also
work
with
park
and
racks
department.
Part
of
the
green
belt
out
on
the
fairgrounds
is
the
parks
and
recs
department,
but
should
scott
need
any
help
out
there
and
sending
his
people
clear
from
the
other
side
of
town?
We
pick
up
that
that
help
that
we
need.
We
feel
it's
very
important
as
a
department
to
be
interacting
with
other
departments
and
work
as
a
whole
to
provide
better
services
for
the
citizens
of
ada
county.
G
Our
budget
on
the
revenue
side,
as
you
can
see
in
actual
2021,
our
overall
revenues
exceeded
this
year's
budget.
Our
fair
revenues
exceeded
this
coming
year's
budget,
so
in
looking
at
the
2023
budget
and
the
inflation
with
the
potential
direction
of
maybe
some
recession
and
that
we've
never
been
we've
never
been.
We
haven't
been
through
the
2022
fair.
It's
a
little
bit
of
a
shot
in
the
dark
to
try
and
figure
out
where
we're
going
to
go.
G
The
expenses
for
2021
on
the
personnel
side
that
has
increased
this
year,
primarily
because
we've
bumped
up
the
sheriff's
revenue
for
them
in
the
a
budget,
the
operating
budget
is
increased
and
that's
just
primarily
due
to
the
cost
of
increased
in
goods
services
and
the
supply
chain
shortage
our
capital
this
year.
I
will
go
into
the
next
slide,
but
we
have
some
things
that
we
feel
we
need
to
improve
for
not
only
the
patrons
but
the
renters
that
use
the
facility.
G
G
G
G
For
the
long,
this
is
my
fourth
sheriff.
By
the
way,
we've
had
a
long-standing
gentleman's
agreement
with
sheriff
vaughn
colleen
gary
rainey
and
at
least
the
first
part
of
sheriff
bartlett's
term
here,
where
whiff
would
pay
the
regular
wages
of
the
deputies
and
that
the
overtime
would
be
picked
up
by
the
sheriffs,
the
sheriff's
and
the
sheriff's
department.
The
sheriff's
and
I
have
had
an
agreement
that
the
sheriff
should
be
out
there
protecting
our
assets.
The
sheriff
should
be
providing
security
for
the
personnel.
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
G
I
will
leave
that
topic
alone.
I
didn't
want
to
have
this
be
part
of
the
discussion,
but
it
was
brought
up
in
there.
As
commissioner
kenyon
said,
we
should
not
be
having
a
tax
funded
department,
be
funding
a
enterprise
fund.
I
also
feel
that's
the
reverse
case
as
well.
An
enterprise
funds
should
not
be
funding
a
tax
support
system
and
at
the
current
rate,
we
are
doing
so.
G
At
least
I
think
my
point
has
been
made.
The
improvements
requested
expo
ido.
We
need
to
improve,
exploit
on
the
ground
to
provide
a
safe
place
for
the
public
and
the
events
that
are
being
held.
Our
renters
want
to
see
improvements
to
the
building
so
that
they
know
expo
ida
is
continuing
to
improve
both
the
renter
and
the
public
experience
updates
to
expo
hideo.
This
is
where
I
would
like
to
use
some
of
that
money
that
I
previously
showed
you
in
the
capital
improvements.
G
G
We
are
looking
to
replace
all
the
lights
out
in
the
parking
lot
with
new
leds.
Those
sodiums
are
or
lights
that
do
not
give
you
a
clear
picture
of
what
you're
doing
in
the
parking
lots
and
I've
set
some
money
aside
to
possibly
replace
or
remodel
some
of
the
stuff
in
the
turf
club,
because
we
haven't
concluded
what
that
situation
is
with
the
rfi.
D
G
G
G
E
G
G
It's
slow,
it's
difficult,
I've
started
turning
business
away.
We
don't
have
the
staff,
the
staff
that
is
working.
There
is
working
overtime,
the
the
positions
we
don't
have
field
we're
pulling
out
from
a
staffing
department
and
what
we're
paying
them
on
top
of
the
fee
is
exceeding
what
our
people
are
getting
paid,
we're
being
sympathetic
to
what
this
world
and
what
you
folks
are
going
through.
G
G
G
We
are
currently
536
000
ahead
of
last
year
on
our
interim
side
and
we
haven't
even
gotten
into
june
and
last
year
we
didn't
even
have
the
music
festival
because
of
pandemics,
so
we're
doing
quite
well
in
our
department.
But
we
are
facing
challenges
that
are
very
similar
to
the
rest
of
the
departments.
G
We're
working
with
our
temp
agency
right
now
we're
seeing
some
that
we
gave
raises
last
year
to
to
try
and
get
through
this
they're
asking
for
more
again.
As
a
10-day
fair.
We
have
some
loyalty
and
some
people
that
come
back
because
the
fair
is
is
a
operation
that
they
thoroughly
enjoy,
but
they're.
Also
in
the
midst
of
the
world
and
saying
I
really
do
like
being
out
here,
but
I
certainly
could
use
a
couple
extra
dollars
per
hour.
E
G
We're
going
to
have
a
gang
busters,
I
think
this
gas
prices
that
are
right,
where
they're
at
right
now
is
going
to
deter
some
people
from
traveling
out
of
town
and
it's
the
last
event
of
the
year.
The
last
event
before
school
starts
and
our
product
is
a
very
good
product
and
people
like
it.
It's
been
proven
so
we're
anticipating
another
large
year.
G
G
G
Would
be,
should
we
not
be
able
to
get
the
simulcast
that
we've
been
pushing
for
for
a
while?
If
that
doesn't
happen,
you
can
see
the
request
from
the
interest
that
was
out
there.
There
was
nobody
else,
so
we
feel
we're
going
to
have
to
go
in
there
and
do
something
to
make
that
facility
be
able
to
be
rented.
G
D
Well,
this
to
me
is
kind
of
like
the
landfill
that
we
we
ended
up
in
our
budget
books
the
whole
build
out
without
us,
even
seeing
any
you
know
having
discussions
about
what
that
would
look
like.
So
I
would
just
assume
see
you
put
in
a
maybe
a
design
fee
in
here
to
begin
with,
instead
of
trying
to
guesstimate
what
a
remodel
would
look
like.
G
B
G
D
G
G
G
D
Has
to
be
we've
had
this
conversation
so
right.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we're
not
just
approving
right
that
by
putting
it
in
here,
we
need
to
continue
to
have
conversations
and
then
was
on
the
consulting
you
had
a
hundred
thousand
in
here
for
consultants.
That's
not
the
design
right,
that's
something
else.
D
G
G
G
I
think
we
did
a
pretty
good
job
of
working,
our
way
out
of
it
and
being
creative
on
how
to
find
revenues
and,
at
the
same
time,
support
other
departments
that
needed
the
open
space
and
needed
places
to
conduct
meetings
and
training
and
so
forth.
So,
yes,
we
are
always
about
trying
to
help
other
departments
and
make
this
the
community
a
better
place
through
our
business.
Absolutely.
A
This
pandemic,
we
were
still
in
the
middle
of
people
getting
getting
the
cove
and
so
forth,
but
I
think
people
were
exhausted
and
the
fair
was,
I
think,
an
indication
that
we're
getting
back
to
normal,
and
I
think
that
was
a
great
thing
that
we
were
able
to
provide
to
the
citizens
of
this
community
and
your
your
participation
was
was
to
put
on
that
kind
of
affair,
because
it
was
great
both
in
the
advanced
ticket
sales
and
the
amusements
and
everything
it
was.
I
think
it
was
a
great
thing
to
do.
A
Incidentally,
I
appreciate
your
efforts:
were
we
we?
Finally,
the
first
time
this
board
actually
passed
a
resolution
to
to
move
ladybird
park,
we're
in
that
process
of
getting
that
done
thanks
to
your
efforts
and
your
your
board
and
so
forth,
and
so
I
appreciate
everything.
You've
done
for
the
community.
G
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
the
support
you've
given
us.
Without
your
support,
the
the
21
fair,
probably,
would
have
not
probably
been
quite
as
fruitful
and
and
financially
advantageous
for
us.
You
saw
that
the
community
really
needed
that
injection
in
their
arm
to
try
and
pardon
the
pun.
It
wasn't
the
vaccine,
but
the
injection
of
the
ability
to
go
out
there
and
be
around
other
human
beings
and
interact
and
share
things.
It
was.
G
Again,
I
I
thank
you
all
for
your
support.
I
thank
you
for
your
support
for
the
arpa
money.
It
puts
us
in
a
good
place
going
forward
and
if
this
park
department,
this
expo
park
development
at
the
end
of
the
day,
if
there's
some
added
money
that
needs
to
be
used
based
on
how
this
all
plays
out,
we
are
looking
to
be
part
of
that.
We
want
to
see
this
developed
and
be
more
so
than
just
what
we
have
right
now,
as
we
look
at
that
theoretical
88
acres.
D
G
G
G
D
G
F
I
know
it's
been
a
long
week
hoping
to
button
it
up
pretty
quick
here
for
you,
so
our
department
overview
you're,
welcome
to
read
the
mission
statement
and
vision
statement.
I'm
not
going
to
read
those
for
you
here
today,
but
I
will
share
our
core
values:
our
core
values,
our
professionalism,
teamwork,
accountability,
transparency
and
stewardship.
F
Every
year
we're
given
budget
guidelines
that
come
directly
from
the
board
of
county
commissioners
in
the
clerk's
office,
and
really
I'm
going
to
highlight
some
of
those
here
and
then
over
the
course
of
my
presentation
I
should
hit
on
each
of
these,
so
we're
asked
to
provide
our
accomplishments
from
the
current
previous
year.
So
so
the
questions
were
asked
or
as
a
citizen,
what
do
my
taxes
or
county
revenue
get
used
for
the
county
or
office
level?
F
What
services
did
we
provide?
What
infrastructure
was
maintained
or
improved?
What
efforts
were
made
to
save
money
and
what
efficiencies
were
identified?
So
those
are
some
real
key
questions
in
my
presentation
today
and
then,
of
course,
we
need
to
hit
on
the
capital
projects.
Did
we
request
any
capital
project
funds?
What's
the
status
of
former
capital
projects?
Do
we
have
any
new
positions?
F
What
positions
we
have
are
they
filled
if
not
what's
the
status?
And,
lastly,
supplemental
requests.
Kathleen
mentioned
a
supplemental
request
I'll
hit
on
briefly
here
today.
Some
questions
were
asked
regarding
those
supplemental
requests
as
well.
You
know:
what
will
it
provide?
How
much
will
it
cost
things
of
that
nature?
F
F
F
she'd
mentioned
that
the
there's
zero
employees
we
did
shift
all
our
employees
over
to
the
parks
side
of
our
department
so
that
we
could
more
appropriately
move
through
progressions
with
increase
in
pay
and
merit
increases,
whereas
we're
sort
of
pinholed
down
with
that
waterways
fund
to
where
we
can't
develop
employees
properly
under
the
waterways
division.
So
instead,
what
we
do
is
we
we
maximize
efficiency
and
and
put
that
that
voter
revenue
funding
back
into
the
assets
at
the
lake
and
then
also
well.
This
is
for
the
sheriff's
office
and
the
marine
patrol.
F
We
do
help
fund
the
marine
patrol
division
up
at
the
lake,
so
the
total
there
is
is,
you
know
two
point
about
one:
eight
million
dollars
really
small
drop
in
the
bucket.
Considering
some
of
the
budgets
you
see
today,
I
thought
it'd
be
kind
of
interesting
to
find
out
what
you
can't
afford
to
buy
for
less
than
2.18
million
dollars
today.
F
This
is
shocking
to
me,
honestly,
so
maybe
kind
of
a
little
bit
of
a
different
approach,
but
you
know,
for
you
can't
afford
for
2.8
million
dollars,
2.18
million
dollars
today,
if
you
do
a
search
on
zillow,
aveda
county
and
you
look
for
homes
that
are
actually
2.18
million
or
higher
you'll
actually
find
59
actual
houses
in
in
80
county,
and
these
aren't
like
suburb.
I
mean
these
aren't
like
in
the
city.
If
you
look,
you
know,
you've
got
star
eagle
and
meridian.
F
So
you
may
not
be
able
to
afford
59
homes
in
ada
county,
but
you
can
afford
to
fund
your
parks
and
waterways
department
and
management
maintenance
of
the
entire,
where
you're
going
parks
for
one
year,
so
you
can
buy
one
year's
worth
of
excellent,
efficient
management
of
every
park
and
waterways
asset
in
the
county,
even
if
you
can't
afford
these
59
homes.
I
think
the
other
point
that
I'd
like
to
make
is-
even
if
you
are,
you
know
not
looking
at
these
types
of
homes
of
this
value,
our
employees.
You
know
these.
F
F
So
getting
back
to
some
of
those
questions
in
the
in
the
bocc's
budget
request
here
today,
as
a
citizen,
what
did
my
taxes
or
county
revenue
get
used
for
the
county
office
level?
Well,
you
know,
basically,
if
a
citizen
wants
to
know.
Yes,
we
staffing
uniforms,
equipment,
fuel
supplies,
things
like
that.
What
does
that
really
buy
in
terms
of
the
services?
Well,
it
is
the
maintenance
operations
and
management
of
several
different
park.
F
Open
space
trail
float
season,
event,
center
greenbelt
pathway,
trailhead
parking
and
recreation
sites,
the
conservation
areas,
the
dock
and
recreation
sites,
and
also
funds
the
staff
that
that
implements
agency
partnerships,
mousse
agreements
throughout
the
county,
so
that
we
can
provide
more
efficient
government
county
wide
pictures
are
worth.
You
know
more
than
a
lot
of
words
here,
so
I'm
going
to
kind
of
jump
through
the
pictures
like
I
like,
I
do
on
an
annual
basis.
You
are
aware
of
barbara
park.
F
It
is
our
department
headquarters
where
all
our
staff
resides
our
maintenance
shop,
also
home
to
the
barber
park,
education
and
event
center,
which
just
recently
hosted
commissioner
beck's
treasure
valley
partnership
meeting.
We
did
have
commissioner
kenyon's
treasure
valley,
water
summit
out
there,
which
was
an
excellent
event
as
well.
That
really
is
going
to
set
the
table,
for,
I
think,
a
lot
of
future
collaboration
county-wide,
I
think
we'll
be
hosting
another
one
here
later.
F
This
fall,
but
all
kinds
of
events,
obviously
that
are
occurring
here
at
barber
park-
lots
of
different
people,
lots
of
different
visitors
forward
facing
you
know
and
outside,
as
well
probably
most
known
in
the
community
barbara
park
as
the
location
that
essentially
we
host
the
float
season
is
probably
the
best
way
to
put
it
on
the
boise
river.
So
everything
from
the
parking,
the
river
floating
amenities,
the
the
shuttle
concession,
the
rental
concession,
restrooms,
building
facilities,
we're
responsible
for
all
of
that.
F
So
we
might
as
well
take
a
real
quick
trip
down
last
year
memory
lane
some
important
dates
and
details
when
we
opened
the
season
last
year,
as
mr
batista
mentioned,
you
know
we.
We
are
also
just
now
approaching
our
primary
revenue
generating
season,
so
we
we
have
to
really
make
some
tricky
projections
for
revenue
and
even
expense
as
we
learn
through
the
next
few
months
till
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year.
F
And
just
kind
of
some
photos
from
what
you
might
see
in
the
upper
left,
I
think,
is
a
good
example
of
a
former
capital
project,
supported
by
the
board
of
county
commissioners
to
to
redesign
and
construct
a
new
plaza
in
barber
park.
You
can
see
how
it
spreads
people
out
a
lot
further.
They
make
a
lot
better
use
of
that
open
space
and
the
plaza
and
all
the
flat
work
and
concrete
work,
the
irrigation
system
and
everything
else
that
went
into
that.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
F
I
think
the
public
thanks
you
as
well
some
numbers
that
I
think
are
important
to
us
and-
and
I
won't
hover
on
these
next
couple-
slides
too
long,
but
I
do
this
kind
of
every
year
and
it
probably
is
starting
to
feel
like
a
broken
record,
but
we're
seeing
the
most
in
history
every
subsequent
year.
We
expect
this
season
to
be
our
highest
visitation
in
the
history
of
barber
park.
We
expect
to
have
the
most
revenue
in
the
history
of
barber
park.
F
F
The
shuttle
increase
total
number
of
shuttle
riders
was
53
000.
The
21
increase
is
over
2019
as
you'll
recall.
In
2020
we
had
half
full
shovel
shuttle,
so
we're
just
due
to
covet
so
in
2019
was
our
last
full
shuttle
year
to
compare,
but
it
was
still
a
21
increase
over
the
former
highest
shuttle
riding
year.
F
Again,
more
increases
in
terms
of
the
total
number
of
four-person
raft,
rentals
total
number
of
six-person
raft,
rentals,
two-person,
kayak,
rentals
and
tube
rentals,
so
anywhere
from
a
12
percent
increase
to
a
35
percent
increase
in
the
total
number
and
all
of
them
saw
their
their
highest
daily
rentals
in
each
of
those
particular
amenities.
Last
season.
F
Why
is
that
important?
Well,
we
do
have
a
contract
for
that
shuttle
and
equipment
concession,
and
so
the
revenue
share.
280
county
was
322
000
last
year,
which
was
a
40
percent
increase
over
the
prior
year,
huge
jump,
a
portion
of
that
was
due
to
an
increase
in
pricing,
but
a
lot
of
it
had
to
do
with
the
increase
in
visitation.
F
F
F
F
What
about
existing
and
projected
river
flow?
Well,
it's
been
an
interesting
year.
We
typically
target
between
700
cubic
feet
per
second
and
1500
cubic
feet
per
second
at
biggie.
Biggie
is
the
glenwood
bridge
gauge
from
usgs
this
year
on
wednesday,
current
flows
were
3140
due
to
flow
augmentation
and
flood
control.
F
The
the
interesting
thing
today,
though,
is
that
we
will
be
right
in
that
fifteen
to
sixteen
hundred
range
later
this
afternoon
at
eight
o'clock
a.m.
This
morning
a
500,
an
additional
500
cfs
reduction,
was
made
in
conjunction
with
other
reductions
since
wednesday,
when
I
typed
this
in
so
we'll
be
in
that
15
to
1600
range
today
through
the
weekend,
and
then
we
expect
another
decrease,
probably
tuesday
next
week,
so
we
are
getting
close.
F
Will
they
remain
stable
between
700
and
1500?
What
we
don't
want
to
do
is
start
a
float
season,
invite
novice
floater
recreationists
to
the
river
and
then
have
an
increase
shortly
thereafter,
due
to
flow
augmentation
flood
control
whatever
so
right
now
we
we
think
it's
going
to
remain
stable
once
it
drops
next
week,
but
we'll
know
more
on
tuesday.
F
F
I
just
figured
you
might
be
interested
in
hearing
a
little
bit
about
that,
so
a
bit
of
a
diversion
in
the
budget,
but
I
want
you
to
want
you
to
understand
in
case
you
get
questions
in
your
office
and
when
we
do
make
that
announcement,
we
encourage
everybody
to
follow,
float
the
boise
river
on
facebook.
This
is
a
huge
interaction
we
have
with
the
public.
All
major
news
media
follow
it,
and
this
is
where
we
get
most
of
the
notoriety.
This
time
of
year
is
through
this
page.
When
we
make
that
announcement.
F
Okay,
back
to
budget.
What
services
did
we
provide?
Let's
get
into
that
barbara
park,
education
and
event
center
so
year
to
date,
revenue
for
2022
we're
at
about
eighty-five
thousand
three
hundred
eighty-seven
dollars.
Our
anticipated
revenue
was
a
hundred
thousand
alcohol
sales.
Was
ten
thousand
three
hundred
fifty
eight
anticipated
thirteen
thousand?
We
have
ju
the
remainder
of
june
july
august
and
september.
We
will
far
surpass
these
numbers
september
is
one
of
our
busiest
months
and
we
do
have
several
events
booked
in
weekdays
during
the
float
season.
F
F
F
Other
other
things
that
you
use
services
that
we
provide
with
the
tax
dollars
we
receive,
of
course
greenbelt.
You
know
these
are
former
projects.
This
is
what
we
make
them
look
like
when
we're
done.
We
do
have
an
arpa
greenbelt
project
in
the
hopper.
You've
heard
a
little
bit
about
it
from
some
other
directors.
That
is
the
sunrock,
slash,
jpd
greenbelt
piece,
and
it
will
be
different
than
these
in
that
these
are
asphalt,
and
that
will
be
our
first.
F
F
Definitely
in
the
valley,
the
oregon
trail
recreation
area,
and
I
won't
spend
too
much
time
on
these
I'll
get
into
this
photo
just
a
bit
later.
If
you
have
any
questions
about
staffing,
you
know
we
do
organize
kind
of
volunteer
and
student
days
on
occasion
and
we
were
able
to
recruit
some
seasonal
employees
that
so
enjoyed
their
time
during
this
particular
volunteer
day
that
that's
becoming
the
majority
of
who
we're
hiring
for
our
seasonal
staff.
Now
victory
wetlands,
here,
partnership
with
achd.
F
Hubbard
reservoir
recreation
area,
which
is
a
state
department
of
lands,
lease
property
that
we
provide
for
recreational
and
open
space
and
trail
amenities
for
the
public
down
towards
cuna
for
non-motorized,
hikers,
bikers
and
equestrians,
and
then
the
open
space
and
conservation
areas
that
recently
kind
of
fell
under
our
umbrella
in
our
management
portfolio
at
barber
pool.
And
then
the
red
hawk
area.
F
And
lastly,
here
lucky
peak
lake,
you
all
were
gracious
enough
to
join
us
on
our
lucky
peak
lake
partnership
meeting
and
tour
this
year.
I
really
appreciated
your
participation.
I
know
everybody
in
attendance
did
as
well
as
you
learned
from
that.
You
know
we
do
have
a
very
strong
local
state,
federal
partnership.
F
That
really
is
the
I
think,
a
model
for
leveraging
local
funding
from
ada
county
to
also
bring
in
support
from
idaho
state
department
of
parts
and
recreation
army
corps
of
engineers,
and
then
others
within
the
community,
like
the
southern,
idaho,
idaho
sailing
association,
we
do,
as
mentioned,
manage
as
kathleen
mentioned,
manage
all
the
dock
string
facilities,
with
the
exception
of
those
at
spring
shores.
They're
circled
at
the
bottom
is,
are
some
of
those
that
you'll
see
at
max
creek
and
thankfully
another
quick
update.
You
know
we
talked
about
going
from
drought
to
flood
control.
F
F
Docks
that
are
county
stamped
will
be
in
the
water
being
used
extensively
by
recreational
users
throughout
the
season,
and
we
will
have
our
staff
on
site,
our
waterways
division
staff
and
our
vessel
maintaining
improving
fixing
any
docks
that
are
damaged
during
the
course
of
the
season
pretty
exciting
on
that
bottom
right
as
well,
we
are
at
full
pool
essentially
on
arrow
rock
and
lucky
peak
and
anderson
ranch
is
climbing
as
well.
So
it's
going
to
be
a
healthy
water
year.
After
all,.
F
What
services
did
we
provide?
Also
public
education
and
outreach
social
media?
I
mentioned
the
float
the
boise
river
facebook
page.
We
do
have
several
other
pages
as
well.
We
administer
thanks
to
your
support.
Last
year
we
were
able
to
hire
a
program
and
education
specialist
and
he's
tasked
with
a
lot
of
our
outreach
components.
At
this
point
he
did
resurrect
the
current
newsletter
that
sat
idle
for
a
few
years
that
we
started
back
in
when
I
started
in
2013,
so
we
do
have
a
new
newsletter
quarterly
newsletter.
We
updated
our
website.
F
What
infrastructure
was
maintained
or
improved?
I've
mentioned
this
a
couple
different
times.
We
were
on
areas
five
and
six
of
the
master
site
plan
modification
for
barbara
park.
You've
heard
about
some
of
this.
During
this
year's
budget
we
had
the
barber
park,
fishing,
pier
and
pathways
and
bridges
project
six
and
five
and
six
here.
F
F
F
I
should
know
any
construction
project,
anything
that
we
undertake
for
the
benefit
of
the
community
with
80,
county
parks
and
waterways,
is
a
tremendous
collaboration
with
other
county
departments
and
offices.
So
it
starts
with
parks
and
waterways
course.
Operations
is
very
much
involved.
Ada
county
procurement,
ada
county
prosecuting
attorney's
office,
80,
county
development
services
from
the
engineering
standpoint
is
involved
in,
and
we
really
all
work
very
tightly
and
close
together
to
make
sure
good
things
are
happening
in
the
community
and
when
it
gets
into
arpa,
then
you've
got
arpa
staff
as
well.
F
Not
going
anywhere,
commissioner
kenyon
in
a
probably
a
15
000
year,
flood
event
or
a
15
000
cfs
flood
event.
It
probably
won't
move
so
yeah
we're
pretty
happy
with
it
tying
into
that,
of
course,
is
the
staylock
pathway
and
bridges,
which
was
the
first
arpa
construction
project
that
the
county
has
undertaken.
It's
a
650
000
project
under
the
category
of
aid
to
tourism,
travel
and
hospitality,
and
you
have
seen
some
pictures
of
it
during
this
week's
presentations.
This
was
just
after
the
removal
of
the
asphalt.
F
F
F
F
There's
been
a
couple
of
things
that
have
changed
in
our
community
in
15
years.
I
think
we
probably
should
update
it
shortly.
Thereafter,
there
was
a
presented
to
the
board
was
the
finding
recommendations
of
the
task
force
that
was
tied
to
this
plan.
That's
14
years
old
and
then
more
recently,
the
county
did
undergo
the
80
county
2025
plan,
which
was
actually
done
in
november
2016.
It's
a
six-year-old
plan.
F
In
that
plan
there
were
several
components
about
parks,
open
space,
agriculture
and
those
kinds
of
things,
but
again
still
six
years
old
and
it
wasn't
a
parks,
specific
plan.
So
we're
well
behind.
The
timing
is
great
because
boise
city,
meridian
and
several
other
community
partners
have
just
completed
master
plan
updates,
and
so
we
can.
The
county
can
jump
right
in
take
what
good
has
come
from
those
plans
and
integrate
them
and
weave
them
in
to
a
county-wide
master
plan
for
our
department.
So,
as
mentioned,
I
hope
we
actually
are
successful
in
getting
that.
F
Mr
chair,
commissioner,
kenyon
to
your
point,
not
not
all
in
the
foothills
kind
of
all
over
the
valley,
but
to
your
point.
A
master
plan
will
help
us
determine
if
public-private
partnerships
are
appropriate
for
how
we
manage
it'll
help
us
determine
if
we're
at
appropriate
staffing
levels.
It'll
help
us
determine
the
course
of
the
future,
and
it
will
also
bring
in
15
years
worth
of
new
residents,
ideas
and
opinions
and
thoughts
on
what
they
want
to
see
from
their
parks
and
waterways
department.
So
we're
just
kind
of
missing
the
boat
right
now.
F
Yeah,
mr
chairman,
commissioner
kenyon,
that
is
directly
for
hiring
of
a
consultant
team
to
implement
a
master
planning
process,
the
the
figure.
As
I
mentioned
it's
split
over
the
course
of
a
couple
of
years.
I
did
reach
out
to
boise
city
and
then
steve
sit
away
with
city
meridian.
That's
just
now
completing
their
master
planning
process
to
to
refine
and
fine-tune
that
that
budget
figure.
So
I
feel
like
it's
a
good
good
number
for
hiring
a
consultant
team.
F
Any
other
questions
on
that.
Okay,
thank
you,
personnel,
no
new
positions
requested
this
year.
Thankfully
we
had
four
new
that
we
hired
last
year.
Thanks
to
your
support,
we
we
did
hire
two
maintenance,
mechanics
promoted
to
into
maintenance
supervisor
positions,
and
then
we
also,
as
I
mentioned,
the
the
program
and
education
specialist
position,
was
hired
and
filled,
and
then
the
trail
crew
forum
and
position.
We
do
actually
right
now
have
two
positions.
Currently
vacant.
F
So
we
were
at
seven
for
years
and
years
and
then
we're
we're
now
at
11.
supplemental
requests.
This
is
the
last
item
here
is
200
000,
one-time
supplemental
request
using
fund
balance
for
barber
park,
playground
equipment
upgrade
that's
what
our
playground
looks
like.
This
is
an
example
of
a
200
000
playground
that
would
fit
in
the
space
that
we
have
at
barber
park.
F
F
This
is
a
tool
cage
that,
after
we,
after
staff
was
assigned
to
investigate
what
types
of
more
efficient
operations
could
we
deploy
in
each
mule
and
each
staff,
member
as
they
leave
the
park
to
go
five
miles,
sometimes
down
the
greenbelt
to
manage
the
pathway
and
after
researching
market.
You
know
what
was
out
there
that
you
could
just
purchase
our
team
consisting
of
tom
and
jared,
not
tom
and
jerry
tom
and
jared
from
our
parks,
division
and
our
waterways
division
came
up
with
basically
using
scrap
materials.
F
Primarily
this
custom,
designed
due
to
jared's
welding
skills
tool,
cage
now
this
tool
cage
fully
loaded,
can
bring
just
about
everything
you
need
from
a
seasonal
perspective,
whether
it's
winter
spring
summer
fall
onto
the
greenbelt.
The
bed
remains
fully
open
and
operational.
It
can
still
tilt,
you
can
put
a
pole,
saw
and
a
ladder
on
top
and
you
can
take
a
blower.
You
can
take
a
line
trimmer
your
push,
brooms
and
shovels
everything
we
need
so
that
we're
not
inefficient
with
our
deployment
of
people,
resources
and
material
can
be
placed
on
that
now.
F
These
types
of
people,
employees,
are
the
people
you
have
working
for
you
and
for
the
citizens
as
public
servants.
It's
really
important
to
retain
these
people
that
are
working
their
tails
off
for
the
for
the
service
of
the
public,
and
you
know
I
really
implore
you
as
you've
heard
all
this
week.
The
the
cola
cost
of
living
in
this
community
has
increased.
So
significantly,
all
my
staff
are
hourly
employees.
F
D
Yeah
so
good
job,
I
think,
like
you
said
you
know
your
budget's
fairly
small,
but
the
amount
of
value
that
you
add
to
the
community
is
yeah.
You
can't
even
measure
it
because
it
just
makes
boise
and
and
the
surrounding
area
what
it
is.
You
know
having
all
the
amenities
on
the
river,
especially
in
the
trails
in
the
foothills.
So
thank
you
for
that
for
doing
a
lot
with
not
very
much.
D
I
think
for
me.
Instead
of
really
talking
anything
specific
about
the
budget
is
really
looking
at
the
opportunity
right
now
for
eckhart
street
in
the
bridge.
I
think
that
we've
identified
in
the
past
we've
had
meetings
with
achd,
that's
a
hazard
and
it
really
causes
a
bottleneck
and
it's
you
know
really
safe
to
concern
for
all
of
us
and
it's
an
old
bridge.
D
We
just
yesterday
got
another
email
that
there's
more
funding
for
bridges,
and
so
it
was
suggested
that
we
do
an
application
to
meet
with
ltc
and
ltc
is
our
local
technical
advisory
committee
and
that,
if
we
could
maybe
use
our
connections
with
compass
and
put
in
a
request
with
all
the
money
that
we
have
sitting
there
for
bridges.
It
may
be
the
time.
So
I
think,
let's
kind
of
all
rendezvous
after
budget
and
figure
out.
If
we
can
make
that
happen,.
F
F
Mr
beck,
commissioner
davidson,
I'm
sure
we'll
hear
somewhat
about
that
during
the
course
of
the
season.
I'm
you
know
with
the
increase
in
visitation
and
and
population
increase
in
growth
and
the
development
of
the
communities
and
neighborhoods
in
the
vicinity
of
barbara
park.
Much
like
you
know
commit
or
director
batista
indicated.
You
know
when
you're
there
and
you're
built
up
around
you.
F
There
are
implications,
just
as
if
you
move
in
next
to
a
dairy
or
something
you
know
there
are
definitely
some
some
seasonal
implications
of
living
nearby
barbara
park,
and
you
know
that's
it.
It
can
create
some
issues
throughout
the
course
of
the
summer.
All
the
more
reason
why
we've
done
everything
we
can,
including
retiring
the
air
stations
for
creating
better
efficiencies
in
the
park.
Our
whole
objective
is
to
reduce
the
amount
of
time
that
folks
spend
in
barber
park.
F
F
Well
yeah,
mr
chairman,
commissioner,
kenya,
I
think
it's
you
know
it's
actually
probably
been
more
beneficial
now
for
downstream.
In
particular,
this
cold
water
in
the
boise
river
system
is
really
beneficial
to
to
the
lower
snake
in
the
columbia
basin
for
salmon
migration
and
spawning.
So
maybe
some
short-term,
you
know
issues
here,
but
longer
term
is
for
the
benefit
of
the
greater
fishery.
So
I
think
it's
a
good
thing.
D
F
F
We,
you
were
up
at
lucky
peak
with
us
the
week
prior
and
it
was
told
to
us
and
though,
in
certain
terms,
the
lake
will
not
be
full,
we'll
be
20
feet
short
of
the
docks
all
season
and
within
one
week
that
changed
completely,
not
only
filling
lucky
peak,
but
filling
arrowrock
and
possibly
anderson
ranch,
unheard
of
so
a
lot
of
those
water
managers.
I
think
are
looking
at
that
and
indicating
it
was
probably
maybe
a
once
in
50-year
or
longer
type
of
event
where
that
happens.
D
A
Snow
and
the
rain
helped
out
a
lot
and
and
and
that's
going
to
be
I'll,
have
all
of
our
all
of
our
docks
out
of
the
water,
and
it's
going
to
be
for
a
better,
better
irrigation
season
and
and
everything
and
for
a
better,
better
float
season,
and
sometimes
you
just
can't
predict
those
kinds
of
things.
Can
you,
but
anyway,
on
the
on
the
compressor?
F
A
A
F
F
In
fact,
I
think
it
exacerbates
the
problem
throughout
that
whole
region
of
barbara
park
and
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
We
we
did
see
that
and
that's
why
we
made
the
change,
so
the
plaza
that
you
invested
in
has
done
a
tremendous
job
for
really
spreading
out
visitors.
A
lot
better-
and
you
know
influencing
folks
to
be
prepared
and
bring
their
own
equipment
has
been
very
helpful.
So
we
appreciate
all
the
support.
Well.
A
A
F
Yeah
pray
for
us,
we've
got
a
lot
of.
We
got
70
days
of
chaos
coming
our
way,
I'm
sure.
So
we
it's
a
very
trying
time
for
staff.
I
mean
this
is
a
is
a
very
big
challenge.
We
rise
to
the
challenge
every
year
and
my
staff
very
proud
of
everybody
that
does
everything
they
can
to
support
what
we
do
for
the
public.
F
F
Mr
chairman,
as
you
know,
the
the
former
owner
did
sell
the
concessionaire
or
the
rental
concession
to
another
party.
That
party
is
the
galena
group.
They
go
by
the
name
of
boise
river
runners.
It
is
the
same
management
and
she
is
a
consultant
there
would
there
will
be
no
front
end
changes
to
all
the
efficiencies
we've
adopted.
She
will
be
on
site
throughout
the
duration
of
the
season.
We
don't
expect
to
only
to
get
better
at.
What
we
do
is
the
only
expectation
we
have
so
yeah,
a
new
new
parent
company.
F
A
D
D
A
H
All
right,
mr
chairman,
we
are
getting
to
about
that
point.
Give
me
a
second
just
to
pull
up
things
that
we're
gonna
adjust
slightly
compared
to
what
your
agenda
says
at
the
moment,
just
because
bruce
has
had
a
busy
morning-
and
I
wanted
bruce
to
be
here
when
we
talked
about
the
master's
facility
plan.
H
So
I'm
going
to
pull
up
you've
already
seen
this
on
monday.
So
let's
pull
up
the
listing
for
the
master's
facility
plan
and
and
both
mike
and
bruce,
are
here
just
to
try
and
address
any
questions.
I
think
you
know
one
of
the
things
it
was
discussed
during
our
department
head
and
elected
officials
meeting
earlier
this
week,
kind
of
where
this
fits
in
jess
oslo
was
kind
of
leading
a
refresh.
H
Looking
at
some
of
the
numbers
that's
been
compiled,
bruce
pulled
together
some
of
the
other
powerpoint
presentations
that
we
have
for
the
master
facility
plan,
but
I
don't
think
I
think
both
of
us
agree
that
they
don't
really
fit
with
what
we're
discussing
here
at
this
point
in
time
right
in
terms
of
it,
I've
highlighted
the
three
projects
that
are
kind
of
under
discussion
or
underway
right
we've
got
the
coroner's
facility.
Obviously
we
had
the
ground
breaking
recently
so
that
that
one
is
kind
of
full-fledged
moving
forward
right.
H
So
it's
at
the
most
complete
stage
as
you're
very
well
aware,
drug
treatment
center
has
been
talked
about
at
length.
The
s
I
updated
estimates
on
the
cost
of
that.
From
what
we've
heard
from
operations-
and
then
I've
also
updated
the
estimates
on
the
jail
expansion
that
is
up
here,
all
these
projects
are
from
the
original
master's
facility
plan.
So
it's
not
like
the
prioritization
has
changed.
We've.
We
haven't
brought
people
back
together
to
review
the
the
holistic
plan
at
any
point
in
time.
H
One
thing
I
noted,
as
I
was
reflecting
kind
of
preparing
to
talk
about
it
this
morning.
One
of
the
things
you
had
alluded
to
this
commissioner
kenyon
is
the
the
ownership
of
the
master's
facility
plan
and
the
advocacy
of
it.
I
think
this
is
one
master's
facility
plan,
its
genesis
on
why
it
exists
really
reflects
it's.
These
are
the
most
challenging
things
we
have
right
and,
and
that's
one
of
things,
there's
a
commonality
with
the
three
projects
that
are
highlighted
and
that
that
is
they
each
have
I'll
call
it
a
single
beneficiary
right.
H
The
coroner
is
obviously
the
chief
advocate
for
the
coroner's
facility,
because
she
is
most
impacted
by
that
change.
The
sheriff
is
clearly
the
the
greatest
advocate
for
the
jail
expansion,
because
it's
his
operation
that
benefits
from
that
sandra
is
tenacious
and
undeterred.
By
any
resistance
when
it
comes
to
the
drug
court
facility-
and
so
I
think
that
actually
stands
out
one
of
the
challenges,
I
think
you
could
hire
someone.
H
It
was
kind
of
suggested
in
the
meeting,
but
I
don't
think
they'll
ever
be
the
full
advocate
the
advocates
end
up
being
the
people
who
really
need
the
space.
One
of
the
things
that
I've
seen
through
some
of
the
budget
presentations
this
week
really
are
our
big
challenge.
Certainly
by
dollars
is
the
jail
leading
at
the
top.
You
guys
do
your
jail
inspections.
You
know
the
numbers,
the
popul,
the
census
numbers
at
the
jail.
H
I
think
bigger,
though,
are
number
two
and
number
four.
You
did
hear
from
numerous
departments
in
terms
of
the
space
constraints
in
this
building
in
particular
that
is
becoming
in
it,
and
you
look
at
those
price
tags
that
is
one
of
the
biggest
challenges
what's
awkward
about
it
is
there
are.
There
is
no
single
owner
right,
but
we
all
collectively
share
this
space
and
we
all
bump
into
each
other
or
barter
for
space
in
this
building.
H
Beyond
that,
most
likely
public
financing
is
the
only
way
I
can
envision
that
we
will
ever
you
know
it's
either
public
financing
for
the
jail
or
stop
spending
money
on
every
single
thing
like
do
not
fund
anything
else,
so
that
we
can
save
up
funding,
which
is
not
realistic
right.
We
know
that
you
know
the
one
thing
with
the
jail
and,
I'm
sure
bruce
can
add
more
information
to
there's
always
the
timing
question
on
when
you
make
that
ask.
H
I
think
that
fits
into
some
of
our
economic
projections
that
we've
touched
on
just
a
little
bit,
both
in
terms
of
people's
rising
expenses,
but
also
are
we
headed
towards
a
recession
matters
in
that
the
other
piece,
and
probably
the
commissioner
becky
you
bring
it
up.
All
the
time
is
kind
of
need
to
own
the
land
before
we
build
on
it
and
as
long
as
I've
been
around
that
that's
been
a
lingering
question:
when
will
we
get
the
land
right?
H
And
so
I
I
think
you
know,
I
think,
like
I
said
bruce
mike,
are
here-
can
answer
any
questions
that
might
help
as
it
relates.
I
think,
for
this
year's
budget.
The
drug
treatment
center
is
probably
the
question
on
the
table
among
these
unless
you
see
differently
among
the
projects,
but
I
think
that's
where
we
are
at
the
moment,
but
I
I
do
think
there
is
a
larger
question
about
how
do
we
try
to
tackle
these
things?.
D
Well,
I
think,
to
add
to
the
conversation,
mr
chair,
that
this
board
has
met
with
our
consultants
and
we're
I
think,
they're,
coming
back
with
a
plan
for
us
we're
looking
at
public-private
partnerships
on
the
two
lots
in
front
of
the
civic
plaza
as
well
as
they've
added
in
the
triangle.
Lot.
Now
so
really
looking
at
more
holistically
kind
of
tackling
some
of
the
admin
issues
that
we're
having
some
of
the
parking
issues.
How
can
we
do
a
public
private
partnership
in
addition
to
some
affordable
housing?
D
D
I
think
and
then
looking
at
what
bob
mcquade
had
to
say,
with
itd,
taking
over
some
of
their
job
duties
and
whatnot
and
possibly
having
to
identify
where
those
locations
should
be
and
maybe
doing,
an
analysis
about
where
we're
seeing
the
public,
and
so
there
might
be
opportunities
right
here
on
this
campus,
to
do
some
switching
of
folks
around
and
whatnot
to
help
alleviate.
I
think
some
of
those
spaces
so
yeah
it
takes
it
takes
creativity,
like
you
said.
D
If
you
don't
have
a
champion,
a
sheriff
or
a
coroner,
it
really
does
take
one
person
to
sort
of
lead
this
and
and
understand.
I
think
you
know
it's.
You
need
to
be
innovative
and
out
of
canada
of
the
box.
Thinking
on
how
we're
going
to
get
some
of
this
stuff
done,
and
it's
and
it's
hard-
we've
been
putting
six
million
that
towards
it,
but
that's
a
drop
in
the
bucket,
as
you
noted
I
think,
last
year
the
cost,
the
increase
and
bruce
you
did
as
well.
H
D
E
H
Faces
is
probably
a
matter
of
two
things
as
far
as
I
I
know
with
faces
and
bruce
chime
in,
but
one
is
just
prioritization:
where
does
it
fit
on
the
list?
There's
other
projects
that,
and
that
was
part
of
why
the
genesis
of
the
master
facility
was
to
prioritize,
because
you
had
everyone.
Normally
all
of
these
things
you
would
have
juveniles
saying
I
need
a
new
building.
You
would
have
and
we're
trying
to
say
that's
not
productive
to
just
everyone
ask
for
something.
H
D
H
Yeah,
I
think
one
of
the
biggest
challenges
we
face
with
all
of
this.
I
know
bruce
sees
this.
All
the
time
is
ted
argyle.
He
used
to
have
heather
mccarthy's
job,
who
he
warned
when
he,
when
he
laughed
is
that
we
need
to
get
a
hold
of
as
much
land
as
we
can
right.
I
mean
like
scott's
presentation
and
his
zillow
tour
that
that
the
parcels
are
becoming
one
of
our
big
there's.
I
Yeah,
mr
chairman
sure
thing
to
realize:
when
we
do
these
remodels
or
relocations,
any
of
these
projects
is,
we
just
can't
go
in
and
remodel.
We
have
to
have
that
particular
department
or
office.
Whatever
it
may
be,
function
the
whole
time
we're
we're
constructing
another
building
or
another
site.
We
need
to
have
that
site
secured.
I
We
need
to
have
an
ability
to
construct
and
not
interfere
or
reduce
the
ability
of
all
the
departments
and
offices
to
fully
function
just
doing
remodels
here
in
the
courthouse,
for
example,
we
have
to
do
after
hours,
so
we
don't
interrupt
the
courts
or
any
of
the
other
folks
that
are
in
here
doing
business
with
the
public.
So
it's
very
problematic.
D
Mr
chair
yeah,
so
you
know:
we've
looked
at
this
now,
for
you
know
three
of
us
for
three
years
and
we've
had
the
consultants
kind
of
try
to
come
in
and
help
with
some
of
that.
But
I'm
not
convinced
outside
consultants
really
understand
the
full
nuances
of
how
we
work
and
at
the
pace
of
how
things
change
in
public-private
partnerships
and
leverages
and
all
of
those
things.
So
if
we
had
to
fund
a
position
or
if
there's
some
existing
position
that
could
take
this
on,
would
that
be
a
better
way
to
go.
I
I
would
think
so
I
think
we
can
handle
this
internally
and
come
up
with
our
own
master
facilities.
Plans
means
a
method,
much
like
the
cip,
where
we
make
our
case
and
it
gets
put
on
that
list
and
prioritized,
I
don't
think
and
phil
nailed
it
by.
I
don't
think
putting
this
out
to
another
consultant
to
do.
A
massive
thousand
page
plan
would
help
our
cause
at
all.
H
I
do
think
it
could
help
to
just
compiling
all
the
information
right.
We've
looked
at
the
department
of
labor
building,
we've
discussed
the
hp
campus,
the
things
around
here
years
ago
to
bruce's
point
about
having
to
to
stage
people
the
I'm
gonna
call
it
the
former
mk
building
that
just
shows
how
long
I've
lived
here
as
a
space
to
just
release
space.
While
we
try
to
renovate
this
building
right
because
there
are
certainly
renovations
necessary
here,
but
it
does
take
some
long-term
planning.
D
D
G
B
J
Well,
thank
you,
mr
chairman,
members
of
the
board,
as
I
was
wrapping
up
my
own
budget
presentation
and
thinking
about
this
and
thinking
about
how
all
the
offices
and
departments
have
had
a
chance
to
express
their
their
specific
needs
for
for
capital
project.
I
realize,
as
a
director
koberg
said,
I
didn't
express
my
my
own.
I
did
want
to
add
real,
quick,
my
own
support
to
the
update
to
the
the
parks
and
trails
update.
As
I
think
I
mentioned
in
my
buzzer
presentation.
J
The
county
recently
adopted
our
transportation
action
plan,
and
that
is
one
of
the
one
of
the
steps
is
looking
at
the
non-motorized
modes
of
transportation,
something
that
we
can
do
and,
as
as
scott
had
indicated,
I
think
there's
only
one
of
the
six
cities
in
the
county
that
hasn't
recently
updated
their
their
their
plans
or
in
the
process
of
doing
so.
So
it's
definitely
a
good
time,
and
I
think
the
the
the
ask
for
this
fiscal
year
is
150
000.
J
Mr
chairman
commissioners,
highlight
highlight
the
capital
investment
program,
just
give
you
an
overview
and
take
a
look
at
the
specific
projects
that
have
been
submitted
for
fy23
and
then
just
walk
through
the
recommendations
that
the
ada
county
transformation
board
has
submitted
for
your
consideration,
as
you
try
to
wrestle
through
how
to
prioritize
all
the
needs
that
you've
been
hearing
about
all
week,
and
so
I
do
want
to
thank
the
members
of
the
transformation
board.
They
each
year
spend
a
lot
of
time.
Looking
at
these
projects.
J
They
don't
typically
relate
to
their
their
area
of
expertise
or
their
their
department
or
office,
but
they
spend
a
lot
of
time
and
they
come
together
and
it's
been
impressive
to
watch
them
as
they
they
collaborate
and
come
up
with
a
recommendation
for
you
to
consider
also
want
to
thank
kelly
woodworth
and
development
services
she's
our
administrative
coordinator,
who
keeps
keeps
the
the
cip
moving
forward
each
year.
So
as
far
as
the
capital
investment
program
itself,
it's
just
an
annual
program.
J
They
may
ultimately
make
a
recommendation
on
priority
to
better
inform
you,
as
the
capital
needs
are
presented
during
the
budget
hearings
and
the
the
deliberations
to
help
our
our
transformation
board.
Better.
Compare
the
requests
when
considering
the
priority.
Our
projects
are
separated
into
two
types:
there
are
cip
projects
and
eoe
projects.
I
think
you've
you've
kind
of
heard
these
interspersed
throughout
throughout
the
presentations
this
week,
that
the
cip
projects
are
those
traditional
capital
projects
that
relate
to
investments
in
our
physical
facilities
and
assets.
J
It
could
be
land
acquisition,
building
construction,
anything
any
kind
of
improvement
to
long
along
the
fixed
assets
related
to
our
facilities,
and
then
the
eoe
project
types
are
extraordinary
operational
expenses
and
the
key
word
there
is
operational.
They
they
help
us
support
our
operations
of
our
facilities
and
our
services.
J
Five
did
not
require
any
funding
from
the
general
fund
and
two
were
related
to
updates
for
existing
projects
that
were
already
part
of
the
fy
22
program
that
weren't
going
to
be
completed
in
the
the
current
fiscal
year
and
then
on
the
eu
eoe
side.
We
received
22
applications,
17
calling
for
the
use
of
general
funds,
two
didn't
call
for
any
general
funding
and
then
three
were
already
part
of
the
fy
22
program,
but
rolling
over.
J
And
just
for
the
sake
of
clarity,
I
think
there
since
potentially
some
some
some
confusion
on
this.
I
want
to
quickly
dive
into
what
we
received
this
chart
on
the
screen
depicts
what
we
received
for
those
cip
requests,
and
so
when
it
came
down
to
prioritization
what
was
reflected
in
are
highlighted
in
red
on
the
screen.
Those
are
the
projects
that
the
transformation
board
focused
on
for
prioritization
recommendation,
because
they
were
calling
for
the
use
of
general
general
funds.
J
The
the
projects
in
yellow
should
have
been
included
by
the
requesting
office
or
department
as
part
of
their
regular
budget
request,
in
this
case
the
particular
case
for
the
cip.
Mr
audi.
He
covered
these
in
his
solid
waste
budget
presentation,
so
they
were
included
in
his
budget
request
and
then
the
the
remaining
projects
in
green
again
are
existing
projects
that
will
that
are
either
underway,
but
most
likely
will
not
be
completed
this
fiscal
year
and
will
roll
over
to
fy23.
J
J
And
we
can
follow
up
for
sure
on
that
and
then
again
there
were
three
committed
projects,
a
part
of
the
fy
22
capital
investment
program.
We
we
did
hear
from
from
director
schroeder
that
one
of
these
will
be
will
not
be
pursued,
the
the
generator
based
on
the
the
the
massive
increase
in
cost
so
we'll
see
that
one
come
back,
but
I
think
the
other
two
are
are
moving
forward,
are
committed
and
may
need
to
roll
over
into
the
fy
23
program.
J
They
identified
the
public
safety
building,
homicide,
evidence,
storage,
expansion
project
as
the
number
one
cip
project
and
then
moving
over
to
the
eoe
side
and
they
evaluated
17
projects
with
a
combined
total
anticipated
cost
of
just
over
11.2
million
and
prioritized
12
of
the
17
as
important
and
urgent,
and
the
remaining
five
is
important,
but
non-urgent
and
again
here
on
the
ewe
for
the
ewe
program.
The
number
one
priority
is
the
fab
replacement
project
and
I'll
pull
up
a
table
that
shows
all
of
these
combined.
J
J
D
We've
had
conversations
with
sandra
barrios
on
the
drug
problem
court
treatment
center
we've
been
able
to
find
two
properties
within
the
last
two
or
three
months
that
would
have
been
adequate,
which
have
fallen
short
of
the
8.7
million
plus.
Now
we
have
beechwood
on
the
market,
and
so
I
think
that
numbers
needs
to
be
really
talked
about
next
week.
Pull
that
out,
because
it's
not
at
8.7
any
longer
are.
I
I
H
That
will
currently,
if
it
sells
for
so
yeah
on
to
that
point,
that
we've
talked
about
that
yeah.
We
need
that
budget,
the
full
amount
right
it
will
be
paid
back
when
the
when
the
existing
building
is
sold
either
that
or
you
have
to
wait
until
you
sell
the
existing
building
before
you
can
do
anything
on
a
new
building
right.
This
was
the
issue
that
came
up
when
you
approached
me
in
the
years.
We
need
to
have
the
money
available.
H
So
if
you
had
a
building
now
that
you
found
that
you
could
have
that
money,
it
will
be
then,
when
the
other
property
is
sold,
that
money
will
go
basically
stop
refill.
The
general
fund
for
the
the
portion
the
drug
court
pays
for
so
some
of
this
is
a
cash
flow
thing.
The
good
the
one
thing
about
this
too,
though,
is
let's
say
it's
budget
8.7.
It
ends
up
costing
7
million.
I
don't
know
I'm
making
the
number
up
the.
D
H
A
H
You
can't
no
yes,
but
the
drug
court
portion
can
pay
for
drug
court,
so
the
money's
tied
up
it's
a
cash
flow
problem
that
we're
talking
about
nada,
the
rules.
Yes,
the
drug
court
money
is
dedicated
for
drug
court.
It
must
go
towards
drug
court,
it
just
happens.
The
drug
court
money
is
currently
held
in
a
in
a
building
and
an
asset,
and
we
need
to
liquidate
it
to
to
be
able
to
get
a
new
asset
and.
H
H
D
I
A
K
D
K
D
I
guess
for
I'm
just
again:
this
is
really
hard
for
me
to
get
my
head
around
all
the
various
you
know,
especially
the
it
ones,
the
innovation
and
the
growth
and
the
you
know:
what's:
maintenance,
what's
repairs?
What's
upgrades,
what's
new?
All
of
that,
so
I
think
I'll
look
at
your
the
sheet
that
you
provided
to
me
about
an
hour
or
so
ago
over
the
weekend.
But
if
you
can
come
back
tuesday
I'll
be.
K
J
A
J
So
they
did
for
the
very
first
one
there
on
the
list.
They
did
recommend
that
it
might
be
prudent
to
explore
the
potential
of
having
boise
city
contribute
to
that
that
project
we
did
follow
up
with
director
bulac.
She
did
confirm.
The
city
is
already
under
contract
to
help
pay
kind
of
under
a
lease
scenario.
J
Mr
chairman,
commissioner,
kenny,
I
don't
believe
this
number
would
change
at
all.
It's
just
that
the
city
is
compensating
the
county
for
the
use
of
that
facility.
Okay
and
then
the
second
recommendation
from
the
transformation
board
is
about
the
the
drug
and
problem
solving
core
treatment
center
remodel.
Basically,
they
had
indicated
or
recommended
that
if
it
can't
be
fully
funded
this
year,
that
a
leasing
option
would
be
considered.
J
Mr
chairman,
commissioners,
an
actual
recommendation
coming
from
the
transformation
board
again
considered
that
what
director
mayor
just
addressed
was
the
closet,
switching
upgrade
and
the
concept
of
considering
essentially
phasing
phasing
that
using
ec
ecf
funding
to
accomplish
some
of
them
this
year
in
general
funding
in
a
future
year.
While
that
may
be
possible,
as
director
mira
presented
in
his
budget
presentation,
it's
preferred
to
do
them
all
at
once.
J
Mr
chairman,
commissioner
kenyon,
you
could
certainly
do
that.
I
think
that
was
the
last.
It
recommendation
from
the
transformation
board,
so,
okay,
the
next
day
on
the
jail,
security,
bms
and
building
acls
refresh
project,
they
suggested
considering
adding
that
to
the
jail
expansion
or
gel
edition
project
and
then
following
up
with
the
chief
deputy,
so
he
had
indicated
that
that
was
originally
the
intent.
However,
when
the
sheriff's
office
met
to
consider
their
capital
needs
in
january,
not
knowing
exactly
where
that
project
was
going
to
go.
J
D
J
Chairman
christian,
I
don't
believe
so.
I
think
they
can
still
upgrade
the
existing
facility
with
this
equipment
and
then
with
the
expansion
they'd.
Have
I
have
to
equal,
add
this
equipment
to
that
new
new
construction.
So
I
don't
necessarily
believe
it
would
be
a
waste,
but
I'd
have
to
have
the.
I
don't
know
if.
H
Yeah,
mr
sherman,
the
the
suggestion-
it's
not
so
much,
I
don't
say,
wasting
money
but
you're
using
existing
counting
funds
right,
whereas
any
of
the
infrastructure
costs
for
the
jail.
If
we're
going
to
be
going
out
to
bond
for
the
jail,
they
can
all
be
incorporated,
so
you're
adding
it's
more
that
by
going
including
them
in
any
bond
issuance.
D
Yeah,
I
guess
my
question
is
though,
a
little
bit
beyond
that
would
be.
If
it's
a
refresh,
does
it
and
we
have
a
new
building?
Does
it
then
mesh
in
with
what
the
new
capacity
would
be
the
requirements?
And
so
I
don't
know
if
we
have
enough
information
here,
because
that's
where
I'm
seeing
that
we
would
spend
the
money
and
then
it's
like.
K
K
K
K
J
J
D
J
Mr
chairman,
commissioner
kenyon
my
my
thought,
I
don't
know
if
others
have
have
additional
thoughts,
but
my
thought
is
that
we
can
bring
you
back.
The
transformation
board
guidelines
that
specify
this
in
in
the
procedures
they
do
need
to
be
updated
to
match
our
current
program
they're
somewhat
outdated.
So
we
could
bring
that
back
to
you
for
your
consideration.
You
can
make
that
change
with
that.
That
document.
H
I
would
just
advise
you
to
consider
that
and
for
the
reasons
that
richard
stated
in
some
ways
that
makes
sense
also,
you
would
just
likely
end
up
seeing
supplemental
requests
for
each
of
these
and
you'd
have
to
figure
out
here.
You
know
during
deliberations
how
you'd
balance
the
supplemental
requests
against
the
other
requests.
A
J
Right-
and
there
is
one
more
thing
I
almost
forgot
during
the
sheriff's
office-
presentation
chief
deputy,
so
did
indicate
that
one
of
their
projects-
the
dispatch
console
system
here
in
this
building-
is
no
longer
going
to
be
pursued.
So
we
did
update
this
chart
to
remove
that
from
the
calculation
and
it
would
look
like
this
and,
mr
chairman,
commissioners,
I
think
that's
all
I
have
for
you
today.
H
A
H
Just
kind
of
next
steps
right
we're
you
know,
hopefully
you
know
the
intention
of
each
of
these
presentations
and
this
week
was
really
to
gather
as
much
information
to
be
able
to
hopefully
go
through
I've.
Seen
you
guys
throughout
going
through
your
books,
hearing
what
the
department's
requests
are
and
getting
all
that
information.
I
think
this
is
always
one
of
the
biggest
challenges
you're
never
going
to
have
all
of
the
information
you
wish
you
had
to
make
decisions.
H
I
know
that
is
difficult
to
hear,
but
that
is
part
of
it.
You
know
the
this
week
has
really
been
about.
You
know.
I
wish
I
knew,
or
if
I
knew
next
week
is
really
the
focus
is
now
with
what
I
know.
We
have
to
start
making
decisions
right
and
and
balancing
all
the
various
needs,
so
we
will
be
just
like
we
have
in
the
past
using
the
excel
balancing
tool
to
go
over
the
information.
I
think
you
guys
are
familiar
with
the
the
ball
and
we'll
navigate
through
all
that.
H
H
It's
always
tough
for
us,
because
we
want
you
to
have
all
the
time
and
tools
to
make
informed
decisions,
but,
as
you
guys
know,
even
better
than
I
we
bought
up
against
boe,
you
got
that
privilege
coming
ahead
of
you
and
from
what
I
hear
right.
Many
applications
coming
in
so
it
sounds
like
that
will
be
a
treat,
and
so
one
of
things
we'll
go
through.
H
You
know
just
things
to
consider
based
on
the
directions
that
we
gave,
departments
and
offices
at
the
outset
we
started
with
that
fy
22
base
and
then
added
that
three
percent
increase
on
operating
and
minor
capital.
Given
the
8.6
inflation
rate.
We're
at
you
know,
you
heard
bob
mcquade,
I
think
he
said
it
well,
it's
a
loss
of
buying
power,
if
you're,
not
keeping
up
with
that.
H
I'm
going
to
as
I've
already
alluded
and
you've
heard
the
theme
throughout
this
week.
I
do
think
we
should
take
up
the
personnel
expenses
first
before
we
go
wading
in
on
all
the
supplementals
and
the
operating
stuff.
That'll
just
give
that'll
give
us
a
foundation
to
start
from.
Obviously
that's
a
big
expense.
We
can
figure
out
where
we
are.
If
we
need
to
adjust
it
later,
we
can,
but
it
gives
us
a
real
foundation,
because
the
ball
will
move
considerably.
H
When
we
do
that,
and
then
that,
like
we
know
we're
putting
our
highest
priority,
you've
heard
that
theme
throughout
the
week.
That's
the
biggest
priority,
get
some
numbers
there,
and
then
we
can
go
through
the
go
through
the
new
positions
right
after
that
go
through
the
supplemental,
operating
requests
and
kind
of
work.
Our
way
through
all
of
those.
D
And
phil,
I
think
you
know
we
would
just
you
know.
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
the
board,
but
I
I
would
like
to
encourage
folks
to
know
if
we
are
looking
at
that
higher
cola
base
amount
at
eight
nine
percent,
something
like
that.
Looking
at
the
new
positions
and
looking
at
their
vacancies,
you
know
what
would
be
their
priorities
and
if
they
have
suggestions
next
week
before
we
start
cutting
on
where
they
would
like
us
to
cut.
That
would
be
helpful.
Knowing
that
we
can't
do
it
all
right.
H
H
J
D
H
Yeah,
I
think
you
are
correct,
though,
where
there
is
going
to
be
some
budding
in
terms
of
we
only
have
so
much
money
available
right,
so
we
got
to
prioritize,
and
so,
if
that's,
if
that's
the
priority,
let's
fund
it
and
then
we'll
have
to
kind
of
chip
away
at
some
of
the
other
requests.
I
I
cut
just
because
I
heard
it
in
passing,
we
are
looking
at.
H
G
H
H
It's
not
really
part
of
the
budget,
but
it
kind
of
fits
in
this
narrative
because
we're
talking
about
pay
increases
in
october,
not
anything
that
anyone
will
see
now
so
just
something
else
to
have.
In
the
back
of
your
mind,
if
you
want
to
consider
okay,
any
is
there
any
information
I
mean
you
can
easily
reach
us
right,
but
any
information
you
want
to
convey-
or
anything
I
mean
next
week-
really
will
be
decisions
and
because
we're
starting
on
tuesday
afternoon
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
have
to
be
moving.
H
D
Working
right
now
we
talked
at
break
on
really
taking
a
look
at.
Would
there
be
any
red
flags
if
we
did
a
higher
eight
or
nine
percent
type
of
cola?
On
top
of
the
salary
adjustments?
On
top
of
what
was
already
given
on
bonuses
this
year,
on
top
of
promotions?
Are
there
any
red
flags?
Would
you
know
somebody
end
up
with
just
a
way
too
large
of
an
increase
for
one
year
kind
of
questions?
So
I
think
she's
kind
of
running
through
that
for
us
well,.
H
I
think,
along
those
lines,
we've
pulled
up
numerous
numbers
you
know
just
like
in
addition
to
looking
at
that
inflationary
rate,
like
you
can
alluded
to,
is
looking
at
kind
of
what
the
model
the
state
did
as
well,
where
you
do
a
portion,
that's
percentage-based,
another
portion
of
it's
a
flat
rate
that
might
address
some
of
the
that
component,
without
with
avoiding
some
of
the
compression
concerns.
Okay,
yeah,
okay,.
