A

Okay, good morning it is may 27th. uh We have our nine o'clock open session. Mr.

A

Tim burke just walked in the room, so we have the opportunity now to start.

A

Thank you, mr park. Okay, we have adult supervision now.

B

Wow, you need to give me an opportunity.

C

Okay, let's uh please stand for the pledge of allegiance and let's take a moment of silence,.

A

After that, please allegiance to the plight of the united states of america and to the republic.

A

Which stands for nation, under god indivisible with liberty and justice.

D

I think we need all the prayer we can get. Okay, let's uh jump right into this with uh priority.

A

Carol, uh commissioner, frazier morning, all right first thing I have to say is that the.

E

I did say it's before, but we were in a work session. Then the bike ride for last or this past.

E

Monday was cancelled because of the rain. It's what it has been rescheduled for june 14th. Everything.

E

Else is the same except the last the last email I got said it was a 25 mile bike ride. Every time.

E

I get email about it, it gives up like a mile or two, so hopefully it doesn't get postponed again.

E

Because I can't do much more than that, so it's this june 14th, which should be a monday, starts.

E

At uh nine o'clock meeting at nine o'clock at race pace in westminster and it's a loop and you.

E

Know and ends up there as well. This past week also went to the magic showcase in downtown westminster.

E

There was vendors there showing innovations and technology and so forth. They had a a.

E

Car that that drives itself autonomous cars, everything autonomous cars driving.

E

And they're going to have a uh a route around westminster. That's mapped out for the car to.

E

Drive and so forth, so it was pretty interesting and I had a ribbon cutting for that as well.

E

I also went to the chamber of commerce kind of a farewell to dr casey.

E

And a hello to dr gaskin, I think he got her name right he's a new president at.

E

Mcdaniel college, so it was, it was interesting. Very you know, good to say goodbye to dr casey.

E

And meeting at the new, uh the new president of mechanical college and that's all I have.

A

Okay, thank you, commissioner, lance so good morning. uh First of all, we're in the heat of.

B

Graduation season, so congratulations to all those that have made it through what has.

B

Been probably one of the most challenging years that they have ever experienced in their school.

B

Lifetime, many of us will be attending graduations over the next. I don't know what they are four or.

B

Five days, so uh so just congratulations to everyone and it's good to see that.

B

We're back to some sort of normalcy when it comes to that uh mcdaniel had their graduation outside.

B

And the weather was perfect and congratulations to all them as well. I'm not sure how perfect.

B

The weather's going to be over the next three four days. It looks pretty sad, uh but on that note, let's.

B

Remember that it is the official start to summer, but, most importantly, uh we often forget what.

B

First weekend of summer is about, and that is uh memorial day, so I would ask that everyone pause.

B

On monday, unfortunately, westminster is not having their parade, but the city of tawny town is having.

B

A parade for the first time since I think 2012. and uh the festivities start up there. I think.

B

At 10 a.m on monday- and I think the parade's at one uh but stay tuned for that- that should be.

B

Somewhere on social media, do they need a chipmunk in that parade? I don't think so.

B

Okay, I don't think they need a chipmunk, so um so they uh congratulations to the city of tony.

B

Town for getting that worked out because it's been quite a while and it takes, it takes a good.

B

Bit of work to try to get the permits for these parades, especially when you're dealing with a.

B

State highway, so that trade route is actually most people think it's going to go from the.

B

It usually went from the bank at trivanian in baltimore to the park where the memorial is.

B

uh But it's going the opposite way because of the state so they're going to start.

B

At the legion and go to mcdonald's, which is this way so anyway, uh they got. It worked out so good.

B

For them, the mcdonald's in pleasant valley haven't found it yeah still working on that, apparently.

B

There's a royal farms going up near pleasant valley as well, not the one out here on 97, because.

B

There's been a lot of chicken wrappers, so there must be one out there too, there's one everywhere.

B

So there must be one out there and I don't think we've met or I haven't been here since we had the.

B

Mml gathering union bridge and congratulations to all the new folks that got installed.

B

The newly elected people that got installed we've got some new.

B

New faces and names in carroll county- and I guess that's called term limits.

B

So be safe, everybody out there over this weekend, whatever the weather brings monday, looks good yeah.

B

But monday looks pretty good yeah so be safe and uh everybody have a great weekend. I don't.

C

Know if there were term limits, though huh I don't know if there was term limits associated with the.

C

Elections, well, that's what people call elections term limits I just okay, that's where I was going.

C

To the people institute, the limitations yeah, the term limit is there's not got it. Yeah, okay, yeah.

B

Try to stay focused, I'm there. Okay, commissioner weaver well uh steve alluded to the mml.

F

uh I just want to thank all the people from the towns who took a few minutes uh from that time to.

F

Do their photo opportunity about the getting a vaccine? I think you'll see them out.

F

Here in the future, many of those faces- and they really uh I didn't- have one person say no as.

F

We asked and went through that whole uh item. Would you know given their little presentation.

F

uh And next week is graduation week. The carroll county uh board of education opted to have all.

F

The graduations at the shipley arena this year in uh at the ag center. That should be interesting.

F

But it had the spacing and it's going to be a lot of open areas. But first time for everything and.

F

This is a way that they can have the graduations. I think bristell is still virtual uh this year, but.

F

Outside of that, the rest of them will be at the uh shipley arena uh this year. Now, just a side note.

F

We survived cicada week. I think last week, a lot of them. A lot of people have them around.

B

I've seen one uh there all of a sudden. It depends where you are. The hatch has come out. uh I saw one.

F

Tree yesterday must have had 200 of the uh the shells yeah after they uh evolved and uh just.

F

Around the base of it, but um more than cicadas issue is ticks and uh we've had a big outbreak.

F

Of ticks, please, if you have young kids dogs check them for the ticks they are as a real.

F

Reassurance of ticks this year coming out in the lawns and everywhere so just be aware of.

F

uh Young kids check them over check yourself, make sure you don't get one.

F

And this uh saturday is hampstead day coming back to hampstead for the first time in five years,.

F

uh Mr burke, I'm sure will be there at 6 30 when they close the roads.

F

State highway is closed. The whole town comes out for hampstead day a totally new.

F

Experience there, I think they moved the farmers market over to the north carol high school grounds.

F

And hampstead day will be up and running saturday all day. So if you have, uh I think it's supposed to.

F

Be fairly decent on saturday come out and support uh all the businesses and vendors in hampstead.

A

Okay, mr boucher, all right, mr swam says I'll fast pitch me some uh videos or photos of what we.

D

Did this past weekend, I guess I haven't come up yet I'll go over to new hirees.

D

For the county, jacob dems, building maintenance, worker, jennifer, claggett employment consultant.

D

Burke, ronald kerrigan bay, left circuit court and colton dean, bailiff circuit court.

D

Here we go, we did the duct therapy. Finally, that is a photo of mayor jones's, granddaughter and.

D

His daughter-in-law in this event, part of the proceeds want to benefit suicide prevention.

D

So we appreciate the support of all those people out there here, they're dumping, the ducks into the.

D

Creek and little duckies float down. Five people won. It was absolutely gorgeous day. Someone out.

D

There kayaking, I wish that was me and uh then it was the kids fishing dirty. That's with my dad down.

D

At crim gold, let's get to the kids who won their awards. This was an absolutely incredible event.

D

All these children came out between ages, I think 4 and 15, and they had age categories. Just roll.

D

Through all these and show all these kids winning their awards, it's being a commissioner has a lot.

D

Of stress but, as my colleagues have told me earlier on, events like this, make it worthwhile.

D

These kids are so happy to be out there with their parents fishing, and it was a great time for me to.

D

Be out there, and I told the kids about my father- helped me fish as a child. My dad was out there.

D

Supporting me and for the day my dad even went out and gave pointers to the little kids how to fish.

D

uh What else we got swim is that all oh here we go, this is the culvert that needs to be replaced.

D

On buckhorn, we're gonna be covering a lot of this today with dpw. These coverts are falling.

D

Apart, there's over 2 000 of them throughout the county and they're categorizing them inspect them.

D

Or viewing them this one is scheduled this summer to be replaced on buckhorn and could be anywhere.

D

From a week to two weeks to replace, there's her crew out on the roads they met with me out there.

D

And uh inspected the pipe, but that there's kathy verts coming up out of the drainage, ditch she's.

D

Getting herself dirty out there they're also to replace these guard rails over the years.

D

Replace a new surface, the guard rails are only about a foot above the road surface because of.

D

The packing of the surface higher so all that'll be replaced. I want my constituents to know that.

D

That road will be detoured for about two weeks this summer and I'm sure dpw will notify them.

D

When it's ready and I'll wrap up real quickly with something from the health department throughout.

D

Covid, I think, with the restrictions a lot of us will put on weight. There's a free lifestyle.

D

Change course offered by carroll county health at risk. Carroll county residents have the chance to.

D

Learn how to lose weight, be more active and match stress to help prevent type 2 diabetes for free.

D

This diabetes prevention program is a 12-month program that is delivered virtually by a mobile.

D

Phone or computer, this program begins, may 31st for more information call turner at.

D

We're getting out of 410-876-4885 a lot of us have stayed home and haven't been as active. So please.

D

Take advantage of this because excess weight leads to so many health issues. As you get older.

D

So, thank you very much. Okay, actually, I lost weight along with my wife and uh our workouts over the.

A

Last year and a half have increased dramatically because we've had the opportunity to uh to work.

A

Out and get dedicated to taking care of ourselves so but appreciate it. Thanks for having a couple.

A

One is um it's not here in carroll county, but it is across the country with these mass shootings.

A

And I don't know about you, but I'm just kind of getting tired of you know. Eight yesterday.

A

In san jose a little girl shot in minneapolis and was killed, and I listened to her grandfather this.

A

Morning, it's just you know it's horrific. What's going on uh no solutions, you know that we're.

A

Gonna come up with here, but it doesn't take away from the importance of thinking of those that are.

A

In harm's way, without even knowing that they're being put in harm's way, but those that do know.

A

They're being put in harm's way this weekend, I appreciate commissioner, wants bringing it up.

A

Is memorial day, and it is not an opportunity or time to thank a veteran that is for veterans day.

A

And armed forces day and birthdays, and things like that memorial day is just as uh minister.

A

Wants you shared is to take that time and reflect on those that gave their ultimate sacrifice to.

A

Allow us to do what we're doing today and uh you know: we've we've gone through a lot, um but every.

A

Every memorial day weekend I go through it and I think of the names that I've been close to.

A

And there's a significant significant amount that I have to uh think through, but um it doesn't take.

A

Away take the time to be with family and friends I mean it is the unofficial uh start to the summer.

A

And enjoy it, but uh having an understanding. What memorial day is all about is important uh and it.

A

Should be, I think, to all of us: okay, are there any additional state directives that have occurred.

A

um That we know of I don't know of any from this past week um and I believe uh mr singer you're on.

A

If you can share some pearls of wisdom on what's going on with the uh the vaccination site over at.

A

Sears and with our kids and how we're doing overall in carroll county good morning, good.

A

Morning, commissioners, it's uh it's good to be sharing good news over the last several weeks.

G

We we, I think, we uh you know, I was hope I was hopeful and uh thinking that we were gonna, get.

G

To the point where um things were gonna begin to loosen up a little bit as we got into the summer.

G

As we got more people vaccinated and whatnot and our our numbers are definitely moving in a in a.

G

Good direction and um I've got some slides where I'll talk about the vaccinations as we get into.

G

As we get into the presentation, so I'm just going to go ahead and share um my screen.

G

So um we've been sharing this uh this this slide for a while, now um with you and it's it's got to.

G

Do with the cdc's recommendations and and uh their their indicators for schools and um for the first.

G

Time since october, uh we're down into the uh moderate risk of transmission in schools and.

G

The one thing that uh I don't remember if I talked to you at all about this last week, but I want to.

G

Make sure that uh we're trying the um I'm been talking to the superintendent and we need to be.

G

Talking to people at the state level because, as our case rates go down and we get into.

G

uh The lower part of the moderate or down to uh low risk of transmission in schools, I want.

G

To make sure that we're considering, uh at the state level, the the school guidance and making.

G

Sure that we're um you know, as as there's less and less transmission in the uh in the county.

G

And uh that that means that uh people who have illnesses that might look like covet are less and.

G

Less likely to actually have covet and the risk of transmission is lower, so I really think before.

G

We get get into uh too far towards the fall that we need to be taking a look at the policies.

G

Because my my concern is is right now, with uh the way the state's currently handling.

G

Quarantine and isolation as we get back to having kids in school five days a week. It's.

G

Going to cause us real attendance problems and- and I think some consideration needs to be given as to.

G

Where we are with rates of transmission and- and um you know, we want to keep people safe, we also.

G

Don't want to unnecessarily keep kids home from school and I think it's important as they get back.

G

In the classroom that we've got a good balance there and I think that's a discussion that the.

G

Superintendent and I need to encourage the state department of education and state department of.

G

Health to take a look at over the summer and not wait until we get back into the fall when the kids.

G

Are actually back in school, um I think the the as, as I'm saying, the less transmission we have in the.

G

Community, the less risk there is to students and- and I think there ought to be some consideration.

G

For those uh transmission levels, when we're talking about uh guidance, is how and how we deal.

G

With our our schools in the fall um our cases by week uh for the first time since uh october, 11th.

G

We're below 100 cases in carroll county, which is great um I'd, love to see us get back to the.

G

Point where we've got virtually no cases, I'd love to be down in the single digits uh we've.

G

Got a little ways to go to get there, we're still seeing cases and uh still having to deal with some.

G

People being in isolation and quarantine and still have people getting sick and going to the hospital.

G

But the numbers have come down and you know we're we're able to do a lot more with now that people.

G

Were vaccinated and and get back to a little more normal and as I go out to the stores and all that.

G

It's good to see uh it's good, to see people back out and being able to live their lives.

G

So uh 14 day rolling average, so it shows the same trends as uh some of the other charts.

G

And this week it's uh and I hope it's just an anomaly, but our our uh cases in the uh 65 plus.

G

Community uh are up comparatively to uh other age groups this week, not sure why that is, but.

G

We did see an uptick in the uh 65 plus, it's most of our age groups are, are.

G

In a similar place this week, uh as far as uh case rates, hospitalizations are coming down.

G

uh I spoke to garrett this week uh that on average we're seeing about 10 or 11 people in.

G

The hospital now where, over previous weeks, it seemed to be stuck up around 20 or mid-20s.

G

People who were in the hospital for covet.

G

And there's our hospitalizations and deaths by age group.

G

And uh we we had, uh we had deaths over the last uh couple of weeks from covet in the community, but.

G

I don't believe I've seen any this week and I would expect, as the number of cases.

G

Drop off we're going to see the uh the dust become very sporadic like they were back over.

G

Last uh last summer and fall um the one thing that I will say: there's a.

G

The state found a reporting problem uh as far as deaths are concerned, we're gonna.

G

See the number of deaths in carroll county probably increased by 10 or 12.? It's not.

G

That's that happened recently, but they're they're looking retrospectively at uh some deaths that.

G

Occurred- and these were mainly facility- related deaths, I believe, but I think we're going to see.

G

Another 10 or 12 uh deaths classified as coveted related from uh sometime in the distant past.

G

It's these aren't recent deaths, but they're the numbers will change and people will wonder why.

G

That is, and, and the reason is, is they went back and looked at uh some of the death records and.

G

And the circumstances and they've uh classified some additional deaths as being coveted related.

G

um Covert vaccine- I I was sharing a different chart with you before, but I think the the thing.

G

That really gives you a picture of what the health department's activity's been with uh vaccinations.

G

Overall so far, we've administered 48 uh 984 doses. As of uh may 25th. The people in carroll county.

G

And our hospital partners, the the pharmacies and and uh private practices are, are working on this.

G

Effort as well, and I want to get into talking a little bit about our strategies as uh as we uh as.

G

We get through these slides and talk about where we're going with our with our vaccine efforts.

G

um So the lines flattened out a little bit uh as far as uh the climbing in in the uh in the rate of.

G

Vaccination in the county we've got 53.2 percent of our overall population. That even includes.

G

People who aren't eligible to be vaccinated who are vaccinated at this point and uh 45.2 percent.

G

Of the population is completely vaccinated and I'm I'm happy to see that the the line's still.

G

Climbing uh it's flattened out a little bit, don't like seeing it flattened flattening out, but.

G

Hopefully, we'll continue to get people as as they understand more and more about the.

G

Vaccine and how it's a benefit to all of us and how it's helping us get back to normal.

G

uh Get vaccinated, I can't do you know. I heard a couple of commissioners talking this morning.

G

About encouraging people to get vaccinated and if you have an opportunity to talk to.

G

Your friends and family about why it's? Why it's a good idea to get vaccinated, uh we'd appreciate the.

G

Support, and certainly call us here at the health department we'd be glad to talk to them about.

G

Talk to people about it or you can look on the uh cdc website and and read information.

G

About how the vaccines were developed and why they're, safe and effective for for everybody.

G

These are our percentages by by age group uh we're up at 89 percent of the 65 plus, which is great and.

G

We just started vaccinating a lot of the people in the 12 to 15 year old age group, we're about 33.

G

There, but uh that that's going to continue to grow. um That's that's the uh population. That's getting.

G

Vaccinated at the highest rate at this point really need to kind of focus on our 20 to the 40.

G

Year old age group, because that's where we seem to be lagging the most and uh percentages vaccinated.

G

Sir graph by uh race, race and ethnicity, overall out of the people over 20, we've.

G

Vaccinated 64 percent of the population- that's that's over uh over the age of 20.

G

And um this, this graphic is is uh shows the 65 plus, as I mentioned, we're 88.

G

For those 65 plus in our african-american community, uh really outstanding 98 of.

G

Our african-american community has been vaccinated, uh we did have another.

G

Hispanic uh clinic at st john's, we also tried to push some information out thanks to citizen.

G

Services and javier over there uh about the uh pediatric vaccination clinic we had yesterday.

G

um Yesterday, we vaccinated over uh 750 um adolescents in the ages range of 12 to 17.

G

And on may 19th last wednesday we vaccinated over a thousand adolescents, so we've gotten close to.

G

As a health department, we vaccinated close to two thousand um there's they're, also.

G

Children at this age are also being vaccinated at the pharmacies and at their doctors and whatnot.

G

It is difficult for the medical practices to be able to handle the vaccine, because the amount.

G

That gets shipped to them and how quickly it has to be used, and that type of thing I've been.

G

Talking to our practices through our aco and the affiliated practices about the health department.

G

Potentially serving as a hub and we would receive the vaccine and then maybe we could get out to.

G

Medical practices, a vial or two when they needed it to vaccinate some of their patients, because.

G

Well, I think people are comfortable bringing their adolescents that are in the age 12 to.

G

12 to 17 to a mass vaccination site, it's been great, we've had the comfort dog there and the.

G

Kids have been great, the parents have been great. I do think that it's uh going to be a little more.

G

Difficult when you're talking about kids that are 11 and under to get them all vaccinated.

G

At a site like the sears location that we're running um so we're hopeful that uh we'll be.

G

Able to partner with some of the medical practices so that, if especially, I'm I'm especially worried.

G

About the kids that are under the age of five, uh as and and I'm talking about this because I know.

G

uh Prospectively that uh the vaccine manufacturers are looking uh at doing are doing studies in these.

G

Age groups right now, and it may be six months down the road that these age groups are approved.

G

For vaccine right now it's only 12 and up, but we want to be ready that uh when it's approved for.

G

For these younger ages that we can work with our medical practices, because it would be hard for.

G

Us to uh to vaccinate very young children- and I think it's most appropriately done in their.

G

Their medical home, um but right right now, we're partnering with with those uh medical practices.

G

And uh with with the uh school system and uh many other community partners get the word out.

G

About vaccine being available for those ages 12 to 17., uh when we have our second dose clinics.

G

We're probably also going to uh encourage people uh to bring um to bring individuals that have.

G

Not been vaccinated yet at all for for their uh for their first doses, to our pfizer clinic so.

G

We want to continue doing that. uh We we have spots available in our clinics.

G

Every uh every week uh we're running clinics at least twice a week to three times a week at the.

G

Sears location and running evenings and weekends to try to make it convenient for people.

G

Go out to the health department's website and you can just sign up for an appointment.

G

I also wanted to note that there's been some spam emails out there that that are not from.

G

The health department and, and it seems to have a uh a be a phishing attempt with a malicious link.

G

So best thing to do if you need to sign up for a vaccination, is just go to the health department's.

G

Website and sign up there, um our numbers have really uh dwindled in our um moderna vaccination.

G

Clinics we're we're probably seeing 100 to 150 patients in in most of those clinics now for their.

G

First doses and uh before we were seeing seven or eight hundred uh patients at a clinic, uh so we're.

G

Starting to refocus and we're gonna be looking at uh trying to do mobile vaccinations and and go to.

G

Events, uh you know the the events like and we're not we're not coming this. This to the hampstead.

G

Days but events like hampstead days and things like that, as we get into june we're going to be.

G

Coming out, where there's a lot of foot traffic and trying to offer vaccine and make it convenient for.

G

People just to walk up and be vaccinated, so the more people. The bottom line is the more people.

G

We get vaccinated the quicker we get through this and and and get back to normal we're pretty close.

G

To back to normal now, but uh you know we're still seeing cases we're still seeing people get sick.

G

And we're still seeing people die, so um we still need to keep continuing with our efforts to get.

G

The population as highly vaccinated as we can so that we can uh lower the uh rate of spread.

G

In the community, as as you see, it's dropping and uh hopefully we're going to get to the point where.

G

We'll be just seeing a few cases here and there and eventually put an end to this.

G

um Just a little bit on how to know when you're fully vaccinated, essentially, if you've got the two.

G

Dose series it's after you've received your second shot, two weeks after that, you're considered to be.

G

Fully vaccinated and two weeks after a single dose with the johnson and johnson vaccine is.

G

Considered to be fully vaccinated and we've seen, we've all seen the cdc guidance and know that.

G

Wearing masks and physically distancing is uh no longer recommended if you're fully vaccinated. You.

G

You're able to do that, people have to do what they're comfortable with um and obviously there's.

G

Still some places there's still some businesses and uh and and state and local um governments.

G

In some places are still requiring mass, you still have to have them in health care settings.

G

The front office of uh our health department, building where we have clinics, that's required.

G

So please be respectful of that. I know a lot of us just want to be done with this, but uh we're.

G

We're very close to being at the finish line. There's some recovery operations and all that.

G

We need to do as far as getting to the point of uh scaling things down and getting things back.

G

To normal, but as things gradually gradually transition, please be patient, as uh as some.

G

Of the businesses and some of the places are still where you're still required to.

G

Have mass and try to be cooperative? That's all I can ask um so get vaccinated. uh You know I was.

G

At mcdaniel's graduation this weekend it was uh really nice to be there. They did a really good.

G

Job of putting it together- um and uh you know my message to the uh to the students there was.

G

uh You know to get vaccinated because one of the things that uh you know we're still dealing with.

G

Quarantine and isolations, and if, if you, if you haven't been vaccinated and you get exposed to.

G

Somebody that that's infected with coven 19 we're still expecting people to stay home and that's.

G

Disruptive to your life- and you know I said to the students- I said how many of you guys got.

G

Quarantined this year during school and and uh how disruptive was that- and there was a.

G

Number of hands, kind of went up and, and the bottom line is, is that if you get vaccinated.

G

You're not subject to quarantine and it'll help. You not have disruptions in your life.

G

Related to this disease so encouraging people to get us back to normal by getting vaccinated.

G

That's all I have if you have any questions, commissioners I'd be glad to try to.

G

To answer for you, okay, thank you very much. Any uh questions comments. The only comment I have.

B

I was uh a witness to someone that got into an argument about the mass thing. Oh really, you know.

B

Man that was ugly- I still don't understand in today's world- why that's such a huge big deal.

B

But you know I guess people like to live the way they like to live so anyway, they handled.

B

It fairly gracefully, they had to call a manager up and uh they got through it, but I we need.

B

To echo the fact that you know you need to be respectful folks that still want to wear a mask.

B

uh And not get so negative about this. I don't get it. I haven't gotten it for the last 14 months, so.

B

I guess I wouldn't get it, but anyway um just be re. I think that's a good message yet to be to.

B

Be respectful of that and I've got two grandkids that uh were at the clinic before yesterday and.

B

They're still around they're doing very well, they had very little effect.

B

So you know I encourage those with young folks. To really uh I mean that's the way that the school.

B

System is going to get back to normal in fall as well, so just encourage him to do that too. So the.

C

uh I'd like to add on, I appreciate, commissioner, lance mentioned the thing about respect other.

D

People's opinion on mass I'm a libertarian what you're comfortable with you need to respect people.

D

At what they're comfortable with I know, this has had a psychological impact on a lot of people.

D

And it's tough for some people to transition out of something that's been ingrained in them. So.

D

Please be understanding to those people that want to still continue to wear mass in public.

D

This is something we can be faithful for for a long time, because there's a lot of people have.

D

Immune disorders or health conditions we might see people on face, masks on a regular basis in public.

D

And please be respectful to those individuals and the reasons they wear their masks so.

D

Thank you steve for mentioning that I still carry my pocket square.

H

The uh you're setting a trend doubles is faster, you know again, maybe it's memorial day. I've.

A

Become more more reflective and parochial on things, but uh during the pandemic the.

A

Selfless service, the personal courage, integrity was really driven to the nurses and the first.

A

Responders and those that were taking care of those they were getting very sick very quickly.

A

Now, although still continue to uh appreciate all of the work they're doing, but now it's.

A

The integrity and the selfless service and the personal courage of our entire community.

A

To get vaccinated- and I you know ed you, you know these words, because we we were born and bred.

A

With these words in uniform, but uh having that personal courage, selfless service to look out.

A

For others beyond yourself in the community, get vaccinate and do what's right. I don't understand.

A

Why people don't do it unless there is a health concern, but if it's just because you don't want.

A

To do it, but there may be an opportunity to take care of your neighbor or your family member.

A

um Those are words that ring true, and you know memorial day again, it's an opportunity to think.

A

Of those that went into harm's way, we are still in harm's way and uh I don't want anybody else.

A

To have to give you know their life, and, and I mean one is too many and we're still seeing that today.

A

Again, I apologize being parochial on this, but uh it's really frustrating me so.

A

And uh getting getting the numbers up whatever we can do ed, please, uh your team ask us whatever.

A

We can do to support you, please let us know, and we will work our hardest to get out there. So.

A

Anything else: group: okay, let's move on uh miss linda to be coming to talk about a decision needs.

K

Thank you, commissioners. Thank you for the previous action. The second item.

K

um As we have done in the past, and I'm going to say, full credit.

K

To jack brown requests have been taken before the maryland 911 board. uh A proposal would fund.

K

Whatever's being presented to them in this case, it's a request for one year of.

K

um Quality performance review. What we would call quality assurance to be done by the international.

K

Academies of emergency dispatch specifically to the the operations in in jack's shop.

K

um The board approved a request for that one year of service. This quality insurance review by the.

K

Iaed the international academies of emergency dispatch in the amount of thirty seven thousand.

K

One hundred thirty four dollars and we're based. We are here today to ask the commissioners.

K

Respectfully request that you accept that funding and allow us to proceed and award that uh one.

K

Year of service contract to the iaed and if there's any uh questions, commissioners about.

K

Exactly what this service is, I'm sure that mr brown can answer those questions for you.

A

The amount the 37 000 plus was that um did all the jurisdictions receive funding.

A

uh For this one year, iaed, you know quality performance review. This is vibrantly.

K

It's by request correct jack jurisdictions are going in, as as as they feel, the need to do this.

M

Several jurisdictions have dedicated qa staff, so they won't be using this process. um We don't have.

M

The dedicated staff um we within um along with several other jurisdictions, are going this route.

A

Did you come up with the 37 000 through a formula or was this.

A

In uh coordination with uh the board the 911 board, it is a formula it's based on the.

M

Call volume, uh roughly 2448 cases will be reviewed, uh which are 911 calls calls entered for service.

M

Which is about four and a half to five percent of our our annual 911 call volume.

A

Okay, so you're confident that the 37 000 is enough.

A

To do the quality performance review, I am okay thanks.

A

Any further uh questions or discussion to uh scott or to check I'll make the motion we accept.

B

The reimbursement offered by the maryland 911 board, as well as authorize the director of public.

B

Safety to enter into an agreement with an approved payment to the iaed got to use acronyms in public.

B

Safety as well for the proposed services. Second, okay: I have a motion in a second we're going to.

H

Removal installing a shot, creek lining and concrete patching repairs to the culverts.

H

With this type of work, we were able to repair the existing pipe and head walls.

Impacting the traveling public and also saving a good bit of money with this repair method,.

H

This year we have two separate projects: one with three locations twin arch.

And 12 hundred gallons of yellow traffic paint for one hundred eighty six thousand one hundred.

F

Fifty three dollars from ozark materials, llc; second, okay, you wanna, add to that. uh Commissioner.

B

Yeah, so you know right through they went and their car looked like a toolbox when they got done.

B

And you know what they only do it once they will learn to stay away from the paint, wet paint.

F

People can't help it yeah. Well, I laughed because they weren't patient. I didn't laugh at them.

F

No, no, I know well, you couldn't laugh, you couldn't believe they didn't just laugh.

A

Okay, I got a motion in a second for a whole lot of pain to be purchased.

A

uh Any further discussion on this in here and none all in favor all right: okay, 5.0.

A

Gentlemen, now, let's talk about reflective glass, beads, okay, so commissioners and all that paint.

N

We just purchased, uh we need to make it stand out, so our people traveling, the road- can see it.

N

A great example would be during the storms last night, these uh these reflective beads allow it.

N

When it's put down, we mix it in with every gallon of paint, both white and yellow, and it makes it pop.

N

Off the road so that the headlights or other light make it very clear and hopefully easy to see so.

N

We are requesting that uh you authorize us to um ride a baltimore county, maryland master agreement.

N

To purchase uh forty four thousand eight hundred and eighty dollars worth of glass, beads.

N

From potter's industries, llc and again, we do have this in our existing budget, with no additional.

N

Funds needed okay, who wants to make a motion for 132 000 pounds of glass, beads.

A

I'll make the motion the board of commissioners approved the bureau of roads operations to use.

E

Baltimore county maryland master agreement to purchase forty four thousand eight hundred eighty.

E

Dollars of glass speeds from potter's industry llc now is this recycled glass.

D

Service, thank you. Okay, it is. It is recycled, glass.

O

Here we go okay, so I got a motion and I got a second any further discussion. Great question.

A

Aim for the discussion senior nun all in favor, okay, gentlemen: let's talk about a term contract.

A

Let's see what are we going to talk about.

A

Stormwater drainage system pipe near 822, wild drive in westminster, yes, and uh in this particular.

N

Case um you know we had some discussion. Last week we were before you on emergency repair.

N

Fortunately, many of the ones we have today are not under emergency repair, but.

N

Through our evaluation system, we have discovered near 822 wilda a 30 inch in diameter, 80 foot long.

N

Section of pipe it is rusted at the bottom and behind rehabilitation. So we got a quote for.

N

The project from stan balls inc of forty thousand dollars. uh Excuse me, forty thousand three hundred.

N

And ninety seven dollars they have a term contract with the county, which was competitively bid.

N

And funding is available for this work now, in this particular case, uh no permits uh are required and.

N

The road will remain open during construction. It's estimated that this will be about two working days.

N

Weather permitting so we're seeking your approval to be able to handle this pipe on wilder drive.

A

When will this get started once approved kathy? When do you have that in your schedule,.

P

Once I have approval, I will contact sam balls and they should be able to have us started within.

P

Probably two to three weeks: okay, thanks kat.

C

Okay, please so the house is going to be done. I mean it's going to be like.

E

With the pro shot, it's going to be the pipe taking out new pipe put in.

E

Because it says you're not going to disrupt traffic, so how are we doing? This is off of.

O

This is, this is actually back a private part of a private lane, so there's no traffic, only traffic.

O

Is there is residents? That's in that I think it's three houses that go back to a little lane. There.

O

So that and it will be done with excavator uh trench box and that type of uh so you're gonna.

E

Get the old pipe put a new one in there. That's correct all right! Thank you.

A

Okay, any further comments, questions I'll make the motion the board of commissioners approved.

E

The bureau of roads operations to use stand balls incorporated to replace one failing.

E

Stormwater drainage system, pipener 822 wild drive, westminster maryland for 40 397 dollars.

E

Second, okay: we got to think three or four seconds on that any further discussion. I think I know.

A

Where this is going, okay, all in favor, okay, will to drive. That's where it's going. It's going in well,.

A

To drive now, let's talk about uh replacing two failing: stormwater drainage system, pipes and add.

A

Head walls at the intersection of backwoods and deep run roads also in westminster, okay,.

N

Twin 48 inch diameter, uh 52 foot, long corrugated, metal pipes, they're currently in place here.

N

They're rusted in the bottom and beyond rehabilitation.

N

The proposal is to replace these pipes with one 48 inch and one 60 inch diameter. So again, a total of.

N

Two, but getting larger on the one: 53 foot, long, high density, polyethylene pipes and adding head.

N

Walls to both ends now for our customers that aren't familiar with head walls. These are the.

N

Concrete abutments that surround the pipe both on the inflow and as the water comes out of the pipe.

N

And what that does for this pipe is that prevents water from surrounding it and eroding it away.

N

Either at either end or underneath the surface, so the head wall helps protect the pipe. That's.

N

In place and secure it from moving um the quote submitted by hti contractors for this project,.

N

As 102 857, they do have a term contract that was competitively bid and awarded it's in place with.

N

The county and funding is available for this work. Now on this one, a permit is required and we have.

N

Requested it uh from the maryland department of environment, but it's not been received back and we.

N

Will not commence this work until mde has approved and we've received that in hand. The road would be.

N

Closed during construction with a detour in place and the estimated time to complete this project.

N

Is plus or minus 18 working days as long as the weather cooperates commissioners, any questions.

B

So this is up um I'm familiar with this one, because this one's had some washouts and.

B

Stuff up going on up there, uh it isn't there, a private drive up there, jim, where there's a few.

B

Houses right there close to that intersection, yeah, there's two driveways, but one on each side of the.

O

Road there, which you know if, when everything goes correctly, they should be able to go out the other.

O

Way towards uh bixter's church, so okay gonna be a little dry for them, but yeah. That's that's where.

B

They'll have to go well. If you're gonna get the pipe fixed, I don't think it's going to be an issue.

B

Because I've gotten a couple, calls on that that I think you're, aware of that, you and I went back yes.

O

And one one thing: the head walls do also is they they give us a little more shoulder support there.

O

You know because when we don't have any head walls, the shoulders kind of fall off which.

O

Kind of creates a hazard, so this kind of helps give us a little more shoulder strength. There.

B

Yeah, that's good put a couple glass beads up there, while you're at it.

O

Yeah yeah, okay, cool, okay, any further discussion questions now I'll make the motion we approve.

B

The bureau roads operation to use hti to replace the failing storm water, drainage system, pipes and.

B

Add head walls at backwoods and deep run for 102 857.? Okay, I got a motion. I got a second.

A

Any further discussion on this chain here, none all in favor doug, that's one heck of.

A

A tie you got there just want to say that kind of goes with everything. Doesn't it.

A

I mean you: can you can wear any colored shirt with that tie? What do you think.

A

Mr burke, you like that okay, so you've got the you got the stamp of approval from.

A

From our legal advisor so outstanding, and I take no credit, my wife picks them all out for me. So.

A

Okay, I just wanted to you know just you know, I just want to make sure that uh our legal advisor.

A

Approves- and I I feel more comfortable now- is this the sidebar. It is not a sidebar, I'm looking.

C

Right now, okay, the sidebar is looking at you and the map. You know no, okay, let's move on to bureau.

A

Of roads, let's see seeking approval to use a term contract, replace one failing storm water, drainage.

A

System pipe and add head walls on buckhorn or buckland road. Excuse me in sykesville, okay,.

N

So this one's near uh near route, 97 a little over six tenths of a mile away from it on buckhorn and.

N

Currently in the ground is a 71 inch by 47 inch by 34 inch, so an oblong, corrugated metal pipe.

N

uh And it has separated at the joints, which call which has caused erosion.

N

And, and also what jim had mentioned earlier, um you know we're dealing with the road shoulders.

N

In this case have been washed away uh during heavy rainfalls, so it's become a little bit narrower now.

N

There is a typo in your briefing paper only with regard to the diameter of what it's going to be.

N

Replaced with it's going to be replaced with a 60 inch by 34 foot long and in this case a reinforced.

N

Concrete pipe and then head walls will be added to both ends, so this will be putting in.

N

A concrete pipe, very sturdy, very long, lasting uh quit, submitted by hdi contractors for this project.

N

Seventy two thousand seven hundred and twenty two dollars and again they have a term contract. It was.

N

Competitively been awarded it's in place with the county and funding is available.

N

Now a permit is required for this project as well. It has been requested from the maryland department.

N

Of the environment and work will not commence until mde. Approval has been received in this.

N

Case the road is going to be closed during construction again with a detour in place.

N

And it is estimated to be about 11 working days as long as the weather cooperates.

N

That's uh this project, commissioners, any questions for jim cathy or I deputy director brown. Will we.

D

Be notifying the citizens on that road about the date that's scheduled under detouring. Absolutely.

N

Yes, uh kathy and her team, um they they always notify in advance any customers that are going.

N

To be directly impacted, just like you heard jim, even if it's a private drive, we attempt to notify.

N

We we go out of our way in all projects from tree trimming to anything else. Any.

N

Time we're going to impact any of our property owners here in the county to let them know.

D

Thank you that will reduce the amount of mean calls I get, and with that I moved at the board.

D

Of commissioners approved the bureau of roads operations to use hti contractors to replace.

D

Failing stormwater drainage systems pipe and add head walls on buckhorn road, sykesville maryland.

D

0.65 miles west of maryland, 97 for 76 772 I'll. Second, it with a question every time mde is, is.

B

Involved, I get a little antsy. What what prompts permits by mde. Is it the head walls, good question.

B

What what why does mde have to tell us that we can indeed improve our drainage beside our roads.

O

It's a what it is. It's a it's! A live water going through that! It's not a it's not just.

O

A storm water, it's it's live water, so there's a there's, a stream restriction and, depending on.

O

The classification of the stream there's a stream restriction on when we can get in when we cannot.

O

You know so that they give us they make us jump through hoops, but that's what we have to do. Okay,.

B

Yeah I knew that I knew about the live water up at backwoods and deeper, because I've been in that.

B

Knee-Deep a couple nights, but I didn't know about buckhorn, but I wanted. I was curious as to what.

B

Prompts it because, as mde ever said, no, I can't do that uh they've, they've kind of given us some.

O

Direction on what to do with certain ones, depending on what the classification is.

O

So yeah, because sometimes you can just get in there and do it and sometimes you have to dike it.

O

Put a a pump in and divert the water to the other side and with means of a pump. So there's depending.

O

On the classification is, is what they, uh what they request or require yeah yeah, so jim the.

A

Live water, as opposed to storm water, would cause mgs to get involved for permanent. That's correct.

A

Okay, so I'm making sure that was the difference, because normally, if it's just regular storm water.

O

We don't it might not even be flowing, so we wouldn't even we wouldn't mde, wouldn't even.

O

Be involved with us. Okay, I appreciate that question because I've just learned something.

D

I believe I made a motion that there's no second year. Second, oh you sound like that.

B

With a question, are there any other questions or discussion appreciate that dialogue? uh Okay,.

A

Hearing seeing none all in favor all right, let's move on, let's get into.

A

Marriageville or sakesville, I believe, where are we at? We can communities do guys? Okay,.

A

Chicken approval to use term contract replace one failing stormwater drainage system.

A

uh And its head walls over marriageville road number, two down in marriottsville, go for it.

N

Okay, this one, uh as you said, marriageville road, two uh intersection of snowden creek.

N

Road and sunset drive: we have a 48 inch, 51 foot, long, uh reinforced concrete pipe.

N

It's separated at the joints now you just heard me tell you that these reforest, concrete pipes.

N

Last a long time and they do checking back on marriottsville road 2. It appears to kathy and.

N

The team jim that this is likely an original pipe that went in uh when marriageville road.

N

Two was constructed to its current state, so it's been there a long time, but it's now separated.

N

And it caused erosion underneath also the bank between the road and head walls has some holes in.

N

It and this pipe will be replaced with a 60 inch by 63 foot long again, reinforced concrete and its.

N

Head walls will be replaced on both sides uh as as well so, in this case, we have a quote from concrete.

N

General for the project of 103 498, they do have a term contract with us. It was competitively.

N

Bid and awarded and funding is available for this work. Permit is also required for this one.

N

From the maryland department of environment- and this one has already been approved,.

N

The road will be closed during construction with a detour in place.

N

And we estimate uh around 20 working days so long as the weather cooperates.

N

Any questions, commissioners, that's a long time. I mean it's, it's good. You know this road is a mess.

A

And whatever we can continue to put attention to it, especially as we uh look at zebra property.

A

You know in development, because marriageville, 2 and ridge road I mean, are major concerns for.

A

That community, um so I appreciate it being proactive on this uh a question. I guess.

B

Yeah, please, we use a lot of contractors here, which is good. We we spread the wealth. uh I I.

B

Would assume all these are big? Typically, we have purchasing on, but maybe not for these. I.

B

Guess that's why not because you guys handle this one. So all of these are actually run, and I see.

N

Maureen is on the screen, but uh I let her review uh all of these papers uh prior to sending to you.

N

To make sure that they meet all the procurement requirements, yeah, okay, I was just secure. I mean.

B

I like the fact that we're spreading the wealth around and you know you have different contractors.

B

uh Performing the work, that's good, so just a just a procedural question: if you will yes, sir.

B

Okay: okay, I'll move. The board. Commissioners approve the bureau of road roads operations.

A

To use concrete general incorporated to replace failing stormwater drainage system pipe and its.

A

Head walls on marysville road number, two marsville maryland at the intersection of snowden creek road.

A

And sunset drive for an amount of 103 thousand four hundred ninety eight dollars. Second, I got.

A

A motion: I've got a second any further discussion. Questions seen here, none all in favor, all right.

A

Good job gentlemen, uh okay, you're seeking now approval to piggyback a maryland state.

A

Highway administration term contract for micro surfacing, in other words, slurry seal on nine roads,.

A

Let's go yes, we are so this is part of our annual program uh and I would clarify for our customers.

N

Who've been watching the the budget process, this is not um part of the discussion about.

N

uh Hardening unpaved surfaces- this is all about our preservation program that we have done every.

N

Year uh to here in the in the past, these next two items are both related to that. So what we do is.

N

uh Our preservation, we make sure that every road is evaluated and then we address those.

N

Roads to make sure they can last as long as possible and we work cooperatively.

N

Cooperatively, yes, together with engineering, to make sure that we're coordinating our projects.

N

So, in this case, we've got construction document. We prepare construction documents and receive.

N

Bids utilizing a term contract with slurry pavers inc for micro surfacing or slurry seal.

N

On cranberry road tannery, road greens, mill road case mill, road case mill, road, south runkles, road.

N

Watersville road, watersville road, rest, west and cabbage spring road total length of treated two.

N

Lane road is 15.50 miles for those who don't know. Obviously we have in your brief that micro.

N

Surfacing is a thin about 3 8 inch thick treatment. It has a polymer modified asphalt, emulsion.

N

Mineral fillers and water, it is applied to rehabilitate hot mix asphalt pavement by.

N

Installing a new surface, it's going to extend the life of the roadway it seals, cracks and prevents.

N

Water infra infiltration and the microsurfacing process also has a high friction coefficient. So.

N

It allows for better traction on our roads. It has low energy requirements, it's environmentally safe.

N

And it emits no pollutants, and it is one of the one of the most eco-efficient maintenance.

N

Treatments available to extend uh life expectancy, which typically is in excess of five years.

N

Additional life, this work, we propose to perform utilizing lane closures with signage.

N

Flag flagging folks and pilot cars, and typically it's 25 days and again, this is.

N

Very weather dependent has to be nice outside, which is why we come to you now for this.

N

So the cost for this project is 498 thousand dollars. Four hundred ninety eight thousand six.

N

Hundred fifteen dollars, excuse me and sixty two cents- and this does include a three percent um for.

N

Contingent items such as increase in asphalt index, which has been fluctuating and any square yardage.

N

Adjustments where, if we have to go a little bit left or a little bit right, may require a little.

N

Bit more to tie into a driveway, for example: that's how one would would get those adjustments there.

N

Is a term contract in place and uh funding is available for this project? Commissioners.

F

Doug, you must take commissioner rance and I.

B

Yeah I like the fact that we now call it micro surfacing.

B

Hidden the fact that it's slurry seal, uh you know how commissioner weaver and I.

B

Feel about the slurry seal and I get listen. You've done a great job of explaining this.

B

And what the advantages are- and I know you've done- that with the folks that live on these roads as.

B

Well, because I have lived that uh many many many did I say many times. uh I I'm still struggling.

B

With the fact that there's nothing better because this this slurry is a challenge for our residents.

F

So there's only one worse and that's chip seal. Well, hey! That's! Next on your agenda, but I know.

F

That that's what I'm saying there's got to be something better to use. None of these roads are in.

B

My district, thank you very much, but I see a lot of them in life, but it still remains a challenge so.

B

I I don't know so you know you've heard us talk during budget time.

N

um We we actually just got in on your schedule to provide an update on roads and as part of that, we.

N

We provided you some numbers for what is called a a thin thin overlay, ultra thin overlay of asphalt.

N

um But you know we, we know it's important to you all and we know this does sometimes generate.

N

Complaints, but we also know it's important to you to maintain the infrastructure and we really.

N

Would struggle to find anything as cost effective to gain us the extra years that we need to get.

N

From an overlay to an overlay where asphalt is, is used, you know rather than a major reconstruction.

N

And, and certainly we, we mainly kathy and her team go out. We advertise this to all of our customers.

N

And we do the best that we can to explain to them what this process does, how it works and ultimately.

N

That we are working to save them tax dollars because the cheaper we can keep this preservation.

N

um The less tax dollars are required today and in the future when it comes to uh it's.

N

Time to overlay, so I understand- and certainly I have heard and we look.

N

Every day, at different things to be able to do, that would be as cost effective as this project.

D

Since I noticed that several of these roads are in my district.

D

If it's possible one one of those roads are being done, I'd like to go out there and maybe.

D

Someone from the media crew film it put the drone up and help with the public relations on this may.

D

Get some close views of what's taking place and I'll give you some support. We could have.

D

Something on cable, I know swam does really nice narration and presentation. So whatever.

D

Would help with the public relations in this I'm willing to help you guys out with and with that.

D

I move that the board of commissioners approved euro roads operations to use slurry pavers.

D

Inc to preserve 15.5 miles of road using the micro servicing process for 498, 615 dollars and 72 cents.

E

Second, because that's a question before you vote on this, though you said it raises.

E

Coefficient of friction just because I used to teach this in science. What does it raise it to.

N

Honestly uh that one I will have to research and get back with the commissioner, I'm not.

N

Going to spit that one off the cuff uh that was that was my research done in.

N

General and I don't have the uh math right in front of me, but I will email that to you.

N

And the rest of it, I appreciate that that was a very intelligent question.

Q

C

A

Got a uh motion and second to for a term contract for microsurfing, first larry seal.

A

For the 15 half miles, all in favor all right against hearing none, okay, let's move on.

A

uh Fear of roads seeking approval to piggyback on a howard county term, contract for single seal.

A

Surface treatment, or otherwise known as chip seal on eight roads. This is, commissioner,.

N

Lance's and commissioner weaver's favorite- and we know that I thought the last one.

N

But I did want to point out that howard county does this too, because we're riding their contract.

A

Compare ourselves with howard county so in this particular case.

N

The chip seal we've prepared the documents. Again, we have received a bid utilizing a term.

N

Contract with american paving fabrics now this is to install a single seal, surface treatment.

N

And a fog seal um now I mentioned an emphasized fog seal because back originally um before my time.

N

With rhodes, and before jim and kathy's time actually in these positions,.

N

These roads were done without fog, seal which left the chip free, and we received a multitude.

N

Of complaints is my understanding and when I say we I mean the commissioners and everyone else.

N

So now we fog seal which actually locks these stones in place to give everything enough time to.

N

Settle and kathy can attest to, but our complaints with our public information process and the fog.

N

Seal have greatly reduced over time and uh we're glad that that's happened, so everyone will receive.

N

A fog seal, this will be pleasant, valley, road, pew shop, road merkel, road old bachmann's valley, road.

N

Streaker road total length here of treated tulane.

N

Is 25.2 miles of roadway now this process is um approximately 3 8 inch thick and it has a.

N

Liquid asphalt, emulsion within either number 7 or 8 crushed stone added to it. It's applied to.

N

Rehabilitate hot mix, asphalt payment and extends the life by sealing, in this case, larger cracks.

N

So the previous one would be smaller cracks. This one will go in and handle larger cracks.

N

The single seal treatment again low energy requirement.

N

It's environmentally safe and emits no pollutants, and it's very eco-efficient and typically again in.

N

Excess of five years is what we see when we put this on the road and in many cases it's longer.

N

Paving work will be performed, utilizing lane, closures, signage and flags, and it's estimated.

N

That this will be 25 working days, cost based on this term. Contract for the locations above is 721.

N

000 2488- this also includes three percent for contingencies, such as the asphalt index or again.

N

Square yardage adjustments, we have a term contract in place, it was competitively bid and awarded.

N

And we do have funding available for this project, so we're seeking your approval on.

N

This one any questions, commissioners, I noticed the last two roads are in my.

D

District, so, gentlemen, be prepared to do some constituent calls with me when this comes up.

B

So uh merkel is one thing uh hugh shop.

B

At the at the end of hugh shop right off of 140 uh coming down the hill there, jim.

B

The road's in really bad shape there. Do you repair that section before you do this hip seal thing.

O

Yes, sir, we we're getting we're in the process of uh getting that done where that's within.

O

The next week, or so we will probably go in there and cut that out and repave. It.

O

So we'll have to patch that part of it that's the worst spot, because we've already done that.

O

Three times and it's a hard spot to it's a hard spot to repair because it's downhill and all the.

O

Trucks, traffic and I'll pull it off the top of the hill and down. But yes, we do repair all those.

O

And we've done it with all the roads that we've done. We that one's just happened to be a larger.

O

Patch than most but most of the roads we do like little. You know six by eight, you know six plus six.

O

You know type of tire tracks that you know require a you know, mill and patch job, so pretty much all.

O

The roads that we do we go through first and then uh and patch them, and then we then we chip seal.

B

uh And pleasant valley, road- this is pleasant valley off a 97 into the valley correct. This isn't.

B

A south pleasant: this is that's, correct, you're, you're, correct, yep, okay, so that leads me to the.

B

Question of at what point or what testing do you do to say? Okay, it's time to do this again, because.

B

I honestly, it seems, like you just did pleasant valley road, because I remember just getting a.

B

Seems like yesterday, I got a couple calls on that, but it always seems it always seems that it. It's.

O

You know it was just done yesterday, but we we do a uh it's a five to seven year plan and.

O

Between us and engineering, we we have a a scale that we go by and that's it's usually what it is.

O

It's between five and seven years: yep! Okay, I think it's a sign of us getting older. Well, why yeah? Okay.

E

I have a question for you, since you said you replaced that section of shoe shop, road about.

E

Three times and repaired it we looked at doing something. Besides asphalt, there may be putting.

E

Concrete in there with the rebar, since the trucks are pulling the asphalt, I saw it being liquid by.

E

The way um since the trucks pulled the asphalt down, why? Why not have we looked at concrete.

O

um We we have not, but it's a good question, that's a good question, but we have the.

O

One of the things as we I think in years past, we didn't have some of the expertise that we have.

O

With it today, I have a guy that had done asphalt, work for uh cj miller for years, and we have him.

O

On board with us now and he's he's made some suggestions and I think we're going to try to.

O

Use his uh expertise on this next patch, I think the times before they just they just milled. It.

O

Out and put an overlay on top of it, which I don't think worked very well, but this one.

O

We're going to use his expertise and we're going to do the process that he he recommends.

E

Okay, if that doesn't work, then you look at commissioner frazier's idea of concrete yep.

O

Yeah, that's exactly right, we will and we might have to get the engineers involved and find out.

O

Exactly what we can do I mean and you're right. The concrete would probably be a good idea.

C

Okay said good, not great. That's, okay,.

B

I think that's a bad, you know where it is. I mean yeah, that's that's! In your district by.

B

The way it's right there yeah you know, so that's always, it seems like that's always a problem. There.

B

Yeah? That's? Why? Because the trucks try to stop going down that hill and it.

E

Moves the asphalt, maybe we'll put no truck signs on you shop.

A

We're just putting a whole bunch of band-aids on a much larger problem, so yeah, okay,.

A

Okay, any other questions.

A

On this I'll move, the board commissioners approve road operations to use american paving fabrics.

A

Incorporated to preserve 25.27 miles of roads using the single seal surface process for 721.

A

24.88 second 88 cents almost took me off, but okay, I got a motion. I got a second. Is there.

A

Further conversation discussion on this all in favor aye against hearing none 500, okay, gentlemen,.

A

Let's talk about that was reluctant. Thank you, commissioners. Okay, in the books, we have one.

A

Reluctant eye: okay: let's talk about phase three. Thank you, commissioners. Thank you. Absolutely, let's.

A

Talk about phase three of access control project at the maintenance center and we got justin we've.

A

Got maureen hello good morning, commissioners, good morning, we are here this morning to.

R

Seek your approval to use term contractor marathon technology solutions incorporated to.

R

Install access, control and security cameras at the maintenance center, the cost of eighty one thousand.

R

One hundred and thirty four dollars and nineteen cents includes all the material labor and.

R

Equipment to complete the phase three project- and this is within the budget and no additional funds.

R

Will be needed and I'll turn it over to justin to answer any questions you have about the project.

S

Morning, commissioners, first off, I want to say thank you for your continued awareness.

S

To secure and protect employees here at carroll county government uh with that being said, we are.

S

Before you back on april 2019 for the approval to replace and upgrade the existing access.

S

Controls in multiple county buildings, the bureau facilities request the board of commissioners, the.

S

Approval to utilize marathon technology solutions to provide new access controls and also installing.

S

10 new cameras out here at the maintenance facility, while a maintenance facility did not.

S

Previously fall within the scope of the original project, it was identified as a site to consider.

S

Once we completed phase one and two with the funds remaining due to that, we had funds remaining off.

S

These projects and we're looking to change the scope to support the installation of the cameras.

S

And your approval to approve the access control portion as well, so with that being said, do you.

S

Have any questions regarding this project commissioners? Was this uh competitively bid.

S

This was using a term contractor marathon technologies who won the bid on phase one and.

S

Two throughout the five county buildings we uh we did within the past two years.

A

Okay, um just share with my uh colleagues. This is a really cool company located actually.

A

Just relocated again in eldersburg extra square footage because of the work that they're doing.

A

um In this type of work, so they are really good stuff and it's always nice to be able to support.

A

Local companies, like this I'll move board of commissioners, add the maintenance center.

A

To the project, scope and award the installation of access, control, controls and security cameras.

A

At the maintenance center to marathon technology solutions incorporate the amount of 81 19 134.19.

A

I got a motion. I got a second any further discussion or any discussion questions seen.

A

Here, none all in favor, okay, thank you. Now, let's talk about replacing the roof and the gutters at.

A

The hampstead wastewater treatment plant hey um again, commissioners, we are seeking your approval.

R

To award a contract for the replacement of roofing and gutters on the influent.

R

Pumping station building and the control building at the hampstead wastewater.

R

Treatment plant to roof right, incorporated of hampstead maryland in the amount of 33.

R

567.42 cents, you will see your chart below where the other contractors that submitted proposals.

R

This amount is within the adopted budget. No additional funds will.

R

Be needed and I will turn it over to andy to answer any questions about the project.

T

Good morning, gentlemen, and thank you for including me on your schedule. um As per.

T

Maureen and the briefing paper, this item is for replacement, roofing and gutters for two buildings.

T

At the hampstead wastewater treatment, the control building and the influence pump station building.

T

For reasons unknown to me that predate my arrival most likely uh based on on the budgetary values.

T

This work was not included as part of the scope of work of the current enr upgrade project.

T

However, the roofing needs were identified by plant staff and replacement costs were included.

T

Within our fy21 operating budget, both of these buildings have flat roofs that are aged.

T

And have been patched in several areas: both roofs have low areas that also retain water.

T

This results in dripping and leaking issues in the interior work areas further complicating matters.

T

Is that the control building uh currently contains the upgraded scada equipment for the operation of.

T

The plant this equipment cannot be exposed to roof leaks um and, on a lighter note, I realize that the.

T

Board anticipates a certain level of excitement with respect to my projects. My apologies for a.

T

Rather boring, although important item uh this morning, I'm confident that and look at my future.

T

Items over the next several months will more than make up for this without any questions. For me,.

E

Have wheaties roof right before.

T

The I believe the the hampstead wastewater treatment plant may have.

T

Used them on a previous project, um they are a local company to the hampstead area.

T

uh They their their their credentials, appear to be very, very nice, so we're confident they can do this.

E

Handle this show absolutely company has a great reputation locally. They have uh really.

F

Stepped up and done some fantastic work from people in the town. I've talked to so.

F

I, with that, I moved the board of commissioners of water contract for replacement of roofing gutters.

F

On the influence pumping station building and control building at the westminster.

F

Hampstead wastewater treatment plant to roof right, incorporated the amount of 33, 567 and 42 cents.

F

Second, I got a motion. I got a second. uh Is there any further discussion questions seeing here.

A

None all in favor and andy. You can join us anytime. You want just let you know, mr walker.

D

Mr walker, has mr burke been mentoring you on humor? Of course it would be much less.

T

Lively, we have a lot of mentoring to do.

R

Thank you. Thank you, commissioners. You are very welcome. Maureen, okay, let's move on to.

A

Question approval submit an application congressional direct spending over union.

A

Bridge flood mitigation concept design chris, yes good morning, commissioners go for it. Thank you.

U

So, as I'm sure you're aware, there's a historic flooding issue in the town of union bridge and.

U

uh Recently uh last year we submitted a request to the army corps of engineers and asked them to.

U

Perform a flood study to try and determine what the uh what the causes were of the flooding and.

U

What potential mitigation we might be able to do? This is an issue not just because of damage to.

U

Repeated damage to properties that are located in the flood plain, but also access issues.

U

During flooding, events for emergency services, getting from one side of the town to the other.

U

So the army corps performed the analysis and unfortunately, there's no easy solution.

U

To address the flooding issues and no inexpensive solutions, um what they identified was.

U

The best option was a system of levies and a rebuilding of the bridge on main street.

U

Which has a pretty hefty price tag, so uh we've been looking for funding opportunities to do.

U

The next step, which would be to do design, work to be able to narrow down the scope of the work.

U

And the exact costs related to that and as we've been looking for, grant opportunities.

U

To to do that design work. uh Last week, senators cardin and van hollen sent information to us.

U

Regarding potential earmarks that congressional earmarks that could be used for this type of work.

U

So what we're asking for is your permission to submit the information for union bridge.

U

To the senators for their review and potentially submission for earmark funds to take us to the.

U

Next step in doing a concept level design, which would then give us the information on the funding.

U

Needed for construction? Okay! Thank you very much. Chris any questions. You know.

D

I want to state and thank you director, hein and mr varga, for the efforts you guys have.

D

Put in this over the last two years, this is a slow, arduous process, but it's such a.

D

A large-scale project, I, like the initiative that you guys took reaching out to the congressional.

D

Delegation and our senators, because I think that's our only true hope and I'm glad you mentioned the.

D

Safety issue, because I'm sure commissioner lance has been familiar with this issue for many years.

D

A lot of people don't realize when there's flooding the town is split in here.

D

And steve was to take 20 30 minutes for emergency crews to get to our side of town.

D

That that could be the difference between life and death, so this is imperative.

D

With that, I move that the board of county commissioners approved the submittal.

D

Of the request form for union bridge flood mitigation concept plan for senator van.

D

Hollen's fiscal year, 22 congressional directed spending. Second, okay: I got a motion in a second.

A

And uh just share with you just a couple comments. One is, uh as you mentioned, uh senator cardin.

A

So my recommendation is that this goes to senator van hollen, senator cardin and also congressman.

A

Raskin, although it's out of congressman raskin's district um congressman harris, has no interest in.

A

Supporting any ear marks- and he has shown that um and uh if the money's out there and although we.

A

Agree with it or disagree with it, um my recommendation is we go after it if it's out there.

A

And uh so that's that's my two cents about this and yeah go ahead. If I may for correction, I.

D

Believe that the union bridge is the northernmost precinct of congressman rascal, that's even better.

A

And that makes the damage he does take a like into that that town, so I think we might get.

A

Help I appreciate your record yeah that that's that's awesome, uh because uh we're going after.

A

Funds and other efforts um and we're just not getting any support from others, except from.

A

Senator cardin van hollen and rashny at this point so recommend we go after it. So um any further. Just.

B

Go the only challenge here, I think, is you know once we get these concept plans, and this is.

B

Going to take years, that's clear at some point I think we're going to have to really start looking.

B

At putting money in place right infrastructure, because I don't know that we're going to get.

B

The free money is there such thing as free money from the state from the feds or the state to do.

B

This, I think we're going to have to kick in a certain percentage, so I I think it's just a.

B

Matter of being mindful, as we continue to move through the process here, yeah I'm in no way not.

B

In favor of this, I am in favor, uh but to be mine ever so mindful, so that in the years out.

B

Especially the way we do our budget, we include or start to include funding based on what we find.

B

With these concept studies yeah, I appreciate the clarification. This is a very big project.

D

I will state that 75 main street is a state road and the bridge over that creek is slated for.

D

Replacement within, I believe, eight years, so we're looking at a long-term time frame, but the.

D

New modern bridge should span that that flood plain better to stop the uh the flooding from.

D

Taking place, and so hopefully I've sent a letter or email to a delegation in the general assembly.

D

To put it on the radar screen of state highway administration to be aware in advance, because, as.

D

Always these things take a long time, but we plant the scene a couple things cause. I agree um you.

A

Know we've had the one meeting with our delegation they're asking us for projects, uh so our next.

A

Meeting this would be a really good one to throw out there for match. um Regarding the letter to the.

A

Delegation what their the delegation is looking to us from the board of commissioners. What is our.

A

Priorities on roads and they're going to then take that they're not going to try to do a one-off. So.

A

um You know make sure that this is part of that package as well. We don't know the overall cost.

F

Of this, do we question we have any idea, I think, they're talking 20 25 million. Yes, the army corps.

U

Of engineers estimated that it would be between 20 and 25 million dollars for construction, okay, right.

B

I guess we're gonna have to get an mde permit for that. One too yeah.

C

Yeah yeah, that's due to the duck truck, have fun with that one yeah. I got a motion. I got.

A

A second I've got a lot of interest in this, with a little bit more guidance provided to you.

A

A

Thank you. Thank you. Chris, do we have any uh public comment.

Q

Yes, sir, I believe we have one caller, I'm gonna mute them now, caller number one you're unmuted.

Q

You have three minutes for public comment. Please identify yourself good morning. Can you hear me.

V

Good morning, commissioners, my name is suzanne swisher and I reside in district 4.

V

Thank you for your service to our community. First of all, if you are not already aware, I would like.

V

To invite your attention to the bza hearing that was held yesterday morning may 26th at 9 10 a.m.

V

Case number 6321 regarding an appeal of an adverse decision of the zoning administrator for.

V

An accessory dwelling in the conservation zone, which was requested for a disabled senior citizen.

V

There were numerous concerns raised not only by the applicants and family.

V

But also through the testimony and concerns of neighbors in the surrounding community.

V

And even the board members themselves, the issue is that outdated and overly strict.

V

Zoning ordinances are potentially jeopardizing the safety and welfare of vulnerable citizens.

V

Tuning in to the hearing firsthand will be insightful. The issue was apparently discussed by.

V

County commissioners back in 2013 and then either tabled or postponed, I am respectfully requesting.

V

That you view the recording of the hearing when able and consider putting the issue back on the.

V

Table as a priority agenda item, your attention would be very meaningful to a number of people.

V

Please reach out if I can be of assistance or service. Thank you, commissioners.
