craig

A
Mr

he
had
a
boating
accident.
He
was
duck

he's

C

three
gary
nelson
for
his
service

county

E
G
All
right,
be
it
remembered
at
a
regular
meeting
in
the
commissioner's
court
of
chambers,
county
texas,
on
the
22nd
day
of
december
2020.
The
following
resolution
was
adopted,
whereas
the
chambers
county
commissioners
court
takes
special
notice
when
an
individual
has
given
long
and
faithful
service
to
the
furthering
and
improvement
of
chambers,
county,
texas
and
whereas
chambers
county
commissioner,
gary
nelson
was
born
on
september
16
1958
in
baytown
texas,
and
has
been
a
resident
of
chambers
county
for
the
majority
of
his
life.
G
And
whereas
commissioner
nelson
attended
barbara
hill
high
school
until
his
junior
year
when
he
transferred
to
iovaldi
high
school
from
which
he
graduated
in
1975
and
whereas
commissioner
nelson
graduated
from
southern
methodist
university
in
dallas,
texas,
in
1979
earning
degrees
in
real
estate,
mortgage
banking
and
a
bachelor's
degree
in
business
administration

upon
his
graduation
from

G

hereby
recognize
and
extend
sincere
appreciation
to

for
his
hard
work
and
dedication
to
the
people
of
chambers
county.
During
his
time
as
commissioner,
he
has
provided
much
comic
relief
with
his
fiscal
conservatism
and
many
made-up
words.
The
people
of
chambers,
county
and
members
of
chambers
county.
Commissioner
court
extend
his
deep
gratitude
to
commissioner
nelson
and
wish
him
well
in
his
next
chapter
in
life.
A
B
A
B
E
A
H
Nelson,
I
will
say
that
I
have
been
on
the
receiving
end
of
many
of
your
colorful
words,
meaning
one
of
them
that
has
to
do
with
the
pandemic,
meaning
that
epileemiologist
with
epidemiology
so.
H
I'm
gonna
attempt
to
share
the
screen,
and
this
will
take
me
just
a
little
bit
of
the
public
health
department,
as
you
all
know,
has
grown
over
the
past
several
years,
and
I
wanted
to
give
due
time
to
all
the
different
functions
we
have
in
the
health
department.
So
austin
told
me
how
to
do
this,
so
I
am
going
to
attempt
to
share
my
screen.
H
So
I
was
hired
in
2007
and
I
took
over
the
health
department,
I
want
to
say
in
2013,
and
we
had
a
very
basic
health
department
and
we've
grown
it
since
then,
in
2013,
we
also
took
over
the
public
health
emergency
preparedness
grant
which
allowed
us
to
grow
our
emergency
preparedness
program,
which
also
has
allowed
us
to,
I
guess,
respond
to
the
hurricanes
and
the
pandemic
and
the
cape
in
the
capacity
we
are
currently
so
okay.
So
I'm
just
going
to
jump
right
into
this.
H
So
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
allowing
me
to
be
able
to
share
this
with
y'all
today
and
focus
on
our
amazing
team
that
we
have
put
together
right
now,
so
in
the
the
10
essential
functions
of
public
health,
and
basically
this
outlines
them.
I'm
not
going
to
read
them
to
you.
H
I
know
you
all
know
how
to
read,
but
basically
what
it
is
is
that
our
main
goal
in
public
health
is
to
just
protect
and
promote
and
assess
the
health
of
our
population
in
chambers
county,
which
is
what
we're
required
to
do,
and
also
what
the
county
in
title
ii
of
health
and
safety
code
is
responsible
for
doing
for
champions
county,
and
so
that's
what
we're
responsible
for
and
in
2007
is
much
different
and
in
2020
as
to
where
we
are
now
and
our
ability
and
our
capability
to
respond
in
that
aspect
so
moving
forward,
we
can
see
how
much
we've
grown
first
I'll,
just
start
with
shalonda
cooper
she's,
our
public
health
nurse.
H
What
she
mostly
takes
care
of
on
a
day-to-day
basis
is
our
immunization
services.
She
takes
care
of
the
texas
vaccine
for
children,
adult
safety
net
program
influenza,
all
of
our
immunizations
community
outreach,
hiv
std,
stds
screenings,
tuberculosis
and
women's
health
screenings
she's
very
active
in
that
role.
These
are
some
numbers
from
this
year.
As
far
as
the
vaccinations
for
children,
it's
broken
down
by
a
region
in
the
county
intellect
when
you
mount
bellevue,
you
can
see
the
immunizations
there.
Influenza
we've
given
425
immunizations
to
date,
community
outreach-
you
can
see,
we
do.
H
H
H
So
a
lot
of
the
things
that
I'm
going
to
talk
about
also
are
through
our
public
health
emergency
preparedness
program
and
basically
that
started
after
9
11.
The
cdc
saw
that
the
country
was
not
prepared
for
one
of
an
attack
that
happened
on
that
large
of
a
scale,
so
basically
what
they,
what
they
did
was.
The
cdc
gave
state
funding
to
different
jurisdictions
that
would
like
to
have
that
preparedness
program.
In
2013
we
took
over
our
preparedness
grant
funding.
C
H
Here
you
can
see
that
then
in
2011
versus
now
how
prepared
we
are
now.
This
is
throughout
the
united
states,
whether
they
can
mobilize
staff.
Have
an
incident
command
system
could
have
a
pod
dispensing
site
or
have
sufficient
storage.
You
can
see
where
they
were
now
and
where
we
are
then
versus
now.
H
So
these
are
all
the
capabilities,
the
public
health,
emergency
preparedness
capabilities.
These
are
things
we
strive
at
all
the
time
and
a
lot
of
these
things
go
hand
in
hand
kevin,
as
you
know,
is
we
took
him
from
the
state
in
2016
and
he's
continued
to
grow
our
program,
so
these
are
a
lot
of
what
are
called
capabilities
that
we
work
on
throughout
the
year.
H
H
So
these
are
notifiable
conditions
in
texas.
These
are
all
the
reportable
conditions
that
health
care
providers,
schools,
administrators
help,
any
kind
of
health
care
provider
they're
required
to
report
to
the
local
health
department
within
a
certain
time
frame,
18
of
them.
They
must
call
us
immediately
and
15
of
them.
They
must
call
us
within
one
day
what
I
have
listed
out
to
the
side
in
yellow
are
all
the
ones
that
we
typically
investigate.
H
H
H
H
We,
it
was
our
program,
was
kind
of
in
its
infancy,
and
we
began
performing
some
epi
case
work
here
on
our
own
and
dr
lynn,
at
the
region
that
head
epidemiologist
gave
me
a
phone
call
and
said
you
have
your
own
phet
program.
Y'all
need
to
start
doing
this
yourself,
so
you
can
see
in
2018.
H
H
H
The
state
encourages
us
to
track
this,
so
we
have
great
partnerships
with
the
schools
and
all
of
our
local
healthcare
providers
and
they
do
report
this
to
us
weekly.
It
starts
in
november
and
it
runs
through,
I
think,
maybe
april,
and
so
you
can
see
it's
grouped
by
years
because
it
does
cross
over
years
2017
to
2018.
H
H
73.99
flew
a
flu
b,
and
so
we
will
continue
reporting
that
or
tracking
that
throughout
the
year
we
report
this
to
dshs.
Every
week,
we've
also
tried
to
report
facebook
pages
time
allows
coven
investigations.
H
We've
tracked
2500
case
investigations
have
actively
investigated
those
8
000
people
in
the
county
have
been
placed
on
quarantine.
That's
estimated,
we've
assisted
120
families
through
the
houston
food
bank
and
water
deliveries
to
people
who've
only
been
able
to
stay
at
home.
We've
reviewed
over
15
000
labs.
We've
transferred
200
out
of
jurisdiction
cases,
we've
triaged
2
000
phone
calls
about
here.
That's
up
front,
that's
not
back
in
the
back.
H
This
is
our
coven
19
and
pictures
what
this
represents
over
here
in
the
yellow.
These
are
all
the
labs
that
come
in
and
this
isn't
total.
This
is
probably
each
one
of
those
is
a
day.
This
is
our
part
of
our
data
management
team.
This
is
what
comes
in
every
day
and
before
we
can
even
start
a
case
investigation.
H
This
is
what
the
data
management
looks
like,
which
is
a
huge
piece
before
a
case.
Investigation
can
even
start
right
in
the
middle
all
those
boxes.
Those
are
positive
cases
and
again
these
are
lives,
and
these
aren't
cases
to
us.
This
represents
every
single
person
in
chambers
county,
which
is
important
to
us.
H
H
So
this
is
part
of
our
public
health
emergency
preparedness
grant
funding.
So
I
just
wanted
to
talk
about
this,
because
this
is
part
of
the
big
reasons
how
we
function
so
kevin
and
paula.
Their
salaries
are
partially
grant
funded.
Our
fed
planner
susie
she's
100
salary,
grant
funded
through
march
ashley
is
our
first
responder
vaccine
coordinator,
she's
100,
grant
funded
through
june
she's.
Currently
our
lead
data
management
intake
coordinator
only
because
the
vaccine
project
has
been
put
on
hold
because
of
in
person,
but
she
still
is
working
on
the
vaccine
program.
H
Lena
is
our
epi
investigator,
coveted,
epi,
investigator
she's,
100
percent
grant
funded
through
march,
and
then
sarah
is
our
epi
investigator
and
she's
county
funded
and
again
I
want
to
tell
y'all
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
have
that
and
how
important
it's
been
to
our
program.
H
This
is
a
breakdown
of
all
of
our
grant
funding
and
just
to
reiterate,
over
the
past
year
four
years
we
have
secured
over
1.1
million
dollars
in
grant
funding
through
the
cdc
and
dshs,
and
this
is
a
breakdown
of
all
of
our
projects,
vector
control.
A
lot
of
this
was
crisis
coag
after
hurricane
harvey
that
works,
they've,
moved
these
funds
forward,
and
so
we're
still
spending
these
dollars.
H
Cold
chain
management,
acova
19
grants
one
one
and
two
are
currently
still
spending
and
the
cps
and
the
cities.
Readiness
initiative
grants
those
move
forward
every
year,
salaries
we
have
listed
over
to
the
right-
and
this
is
these-
are
currently
salaries.
We're
operating
off
of
this
is
a
breakdown,
so
our
the
cps
hazards
and
cri
grants
they're
matched
at
ten
percent,
but
we
match
them
by
existing
salaries
throughout
our
public
health
department.
H
Currently,
the
county
funds,
sixteen
percent
of
all
of
our
fed
salaries
and
the
county
funds
seven
point:
six
percent
of
the
overall
fed
funded
projects.
The
remainder
is
funded
by
dshs
grants.
H
H
We
have
vaccine
refrigerators,
vaccine
freezers,
they're
all
new
they're,
all
at
the
health
department
clinics
throughout
the
county
and
at
the
warehouse,
and
then
these
are
our
portable
storage,
refrigerator
refrigerators
and
portable
refrigerators
and
coolers.
The
crisis
coat
grant
funding,
total
amount
was
651,
000.,
I've
got
an
airplane
and
then
a
gps
monitoring
system.
This
is
what
lawrence
was
awarded
through
our
crisis,
coag
funding,
and
I
know
that
that
was
an
integral
part
to
the
vector
control.
H
This
is
ashley.
She
was
hired
as
our
first
responder
safety
and
health
dshs
saw
a
need
that
our
first
responders
needed
to
be
vaccinated
for
hepatitis
b
and
tdap,
and
she
worked
extremely
hard
from
january
until
the
pandemic
started
in
march
to
be
able
to
vaccinate
our
first
responders
and
the
funding
for
that
project
was
143
000.
H
That
project
was
also
moved
forward,
so
this
is
basically
what
they
did
was.
The
survey
was
sent
out
to
all
the
county
employees
to
date,
78
still
need
tdap
and
120
have
been
identified
to
receive
hepatitis
b,
but
our
compliance
rate
has
been
amazing.
Sheriff's
office
120
employees,
95
percent-
are
up
today.
Don't
head
b.
95
percent,
up
to
date
on
tdap
and
98,
are
in
amtrak
building
maintenance.
H
100
percent
are
up
to
date
on
hep
b,
94
percent
up
to
date
on
tdap
parks,
89
percent
on
happy
94
on
tdap
and
again
these
are
identified
as
first
responders
in
a
time
of
a
hurricane
or
flood
or
in
response,
others
that
she's
vaccinated
through
the
project,
ems,
indigent
healthcare,
emergency
management
and
several
of
the
commissioner's
offices
and
we're
not
through
with
this
when
the
pandemic.
This
is
a
position,
that's
been
rolled
forward
again.
H
This
is,
it
is
truly
important
and
and
what
something
else
she's
working
on
is
helping
offices
work
on
new
hire
vaccination
policies,
so
when
a
new
hire
comes
on,
making
sure
that
they're
vaccinated
before
they
even
get
hired
onto
the
county
again,
some
of
the
other
things
that
she's
worked
on
is
presentations
through
all
of
these
community
health
partners,
whether
it's
a
hospital
other
county
offices
throughout
the
lapc
baytown
fire
department
and
mont
bellevue
police
department.
H
All
of
these
departments
are
considered
first
responders
and
we
we
understand
that
they
need
to
be
vaccinated,
so
they
can
respond
in
the
time
of
a
hazard
and
we
partnered
with
bayside
and
they
decided
to
supply
vaccines
and
waive
all
copays
for
chambers
county
employees
to
have
insurance
and
they've
created.
Amazing
databases
for
all
of
our
first
responders
throughout
the
county.
H
These
two
things
go
hand
in
hand
and
she's
only
been
here
since
september,
but
these
are
the
plans
that
she's,
already
updated
and
created
since
she's,
been
here
right
now
we're
working
hard
and
heavy
on
the
coveted
vaccination
plan
and
the
distribution
plan-
and
this
is
a
covet,
also
a
covered
grant
in
the
amount
of
126
thousand
dollars
that
we're
currently
working
off
of
some
pep
response
activities-
and
I
know
that
you
are
all
aware
of
these.
H
We
had
several
drive-through
testing
sites
with
some
amazing
partnerships,
and
we've
also
had
performed
several
flu
drive-through
clinics
this
year,
other
fed
activities
that
we
do
not
just
this
year,
but
in
years
past,
all
of
our
pod
exercise
trainings.
We
partnered
with
bellevue
school
this
past
year
to
do
a
regional
exercise,
sns
coordination,
our
tdap
clinics,
grant
management,
shelter,
coordination,
all
of
our
hurricane
preparedness
and
response
our
ongoing
disease
surveillance
in
our
community
partnerships
to
bridge
all
of
those
gaps.
H
So
right
now,
what
you'll
hear
a
lot
about
is
we're
supposed
to
receive
a
thousand
doses
of
coba
vaccine
this
week,
not
just
chambers
county
public
health,
but
there
are
several
identified
hospitals
as
well
as
pharmacies,
they'll
be
receiving
vaccine
and
what
we
are
working
on
is
the
phase
one
vaccinating
all
of
the
local
health
care
providers,
the
first
responders
in
in
this
phase
one.
H
So
we
will
use
all
means
and
tools
available
to
communicate
our
our
who
will
be
identified
next
in
those
phases,
and
we
will
continually
reach
out
to
all
of
our
elected
officials
and
our
community
partners
and
let
them
know
when
it's
their
time
to
be
vaccinated.
H
We
know
that
limited
doses
will
be
available
initially
and
as
those
as
we
are
reallocated
doses
and
as
those
are
available
again,
we
will
reach
out
to
all
of
those.
So
I
just
wanted
to
share
some
pictures.
Again.
I
put
like
a
little
disclaimer
down
at
the
bottom.
A
lot
of
these
pictures
were
taken
and
before
masks
were.
You
know
there
was
a
mask
order
or
a
lot
of
these
pictures
were
taken
before
the
pandemic
started.
This
picture
in
the
middle
means
a
lot
to
me.
H
This
is
taken
on
day,
one
on
march
13th
here
in
our
operations
center,
but
these
people
have
worked
really
hard.
A
lot
of
you
may
find
yourself
in
some
of
these
pictures.
A
lot
of
these
are
just
pictures
representing
some
of
our
social
media
posts.
A
lot
of
these
just
pictures
are
from
hurricane
response
in
our
eoc,
our
public
health
team,
and
we
just
couldn't
do
it
without
everybody.
I
can't
name
everybody
because
I'll
probably
get
checked
up.
H
So
this
is
our
aoc
judge
is
juggling
here.
Some
of
our
press
conferences,
just
it's
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
partnerships.
So
yesterday
I
received
in
the
mail.
This
is
a
senator
creighton.
Taicho
has
been
an
integral
part
of
our
partnership,
received
in
the
middle
of
flag
that
was
flown
over.
The
capitol
was
sent
to
all
the
public
health
directors
in
a
a
resolution
for
all
the
public
health
departments
and
all
their
hard
work.
H
So
I
don't
know
if
y'all
can
see
me,
but
here's
the
flag
that
was
flown
over
the
capitol.
So
a
big
thank
you
to
the
entire
eoc.
The
commissioner's
court.
A
Great
job
very
informative,
informative
and
you
saw
that's,
my
job
is
juggling
things.
So
my
my
my
mom
dad
said:
that's
the
only
thing
I
learned
in
college
was.
I
D
Yeah,
I
got
a
quick
question
about
the
first
or
second
slide
you
showed
was
showing
immunizations
and
I
couldn't
help,
but
to
notice
how
few
were
actually
done
in
my
bellevue
versus
anna
whack
and
winnie
any
reason
why
they're
not
doing
it
in
my
bellevue.
H
D
B
D
F
The
great
job
y'all
doing,
I
know
it's
very
stressful,
but
y'all
doing
a
great
job.
You
see
on
the
news
now
they're
talking
about
this
second
strain.
That
is
more
contagious
than
the
first.
What's
the
word
on
that
that
you
are
getting.
H
H
Oh
yeah
and
I
said
that
yeah.
Thank
you
also.
I
did.
I
know
that
I
talk
extremely
fast
and
I
have
a
lot
of
stuff
going
on
in
this
brain,
but
I
did.
I
just
did
just
want
to
say.
If
you
have
questions
about
vaccines,
I
was
looking
at
the
slides
going
through
there,
but
we're
working
extremely
hard
on
vaccines.
H
We're
going
to
ensure
that
everyone
is
will
be
vaccinated.
F
H
Yes,
so
that'll,
yes,
so
that
when
the
general
public
or
those
you
know
one
that
when
they're
allocated-
and
we
have
you
know,
an
increased
supply
of
vaccinations,
that'll
definitely
be
drive
these
and
those
will
be
partnerships
with
hospitals.
You
know
public
health
and
you
know
and
that'll
all
be
released.
H
F
A
All
right,
thank
you
great
job,
merry
christmas,
let's
go
to
1.2,
discuss
and
consider
recognition
by
governor
abbott,
commending
the
texas
association
of
city
and
county
health
officials,
take
cho
or
taco,
and
all
public
all
local
public,
public
health
authorities,
departments
and
districts
in
texas
for
the
dedication
and
devotion
to
protecting
the
health
and
well-being
of
texans
and
answering
the
call
to
face
the
challenges
of
the
novel
virus.
Kobe
19
pandemic
and
lauren
has
offered
to
read
that.
J
In
response
to
this
crisis,
the
men
and
women
of
the
lone
star
state
got
to
work.
A
coalition
was
formed
com
comprised
of
taicho
and
the
member
associations
of
local
public
health
authorities,
departments
and
districts.
Since
its
inception,
the
goal
of
this
dedicated
group
has
been
to
provide
rapid
and
essential
support
to
local
communities.
J
Tai
cho
members
were
immediately
dispersed
to
the
front
lines
of
the
coba
19
response
and
began
providing
day-to-day
services
to
their
local
populations
by
promoting
healthy
lifestyles
and
disease
prevention
and
protecting
against
all
potential
health
threats.
This
disaster
has
created
many
new
challenges
for
local
public
health
systems.
Taicho
has
helped
relieve
this
strain
by
disseminating
information
on
the
coronavirus
and
how
to
protect
yourself
against
it.
They
have
also
established
cobia
19
testing
sites
and
provided
contact
contact
tracing
in
communities
in
order
to
contain
the
rampant
spread
of
this
virus
in
texas.
J
J
A
Well
and-
and
I
will
say
that
learner's
it
has
been
a
it's-
been
a
really
good
relationship
between
the
state
and
all
the
all
our
other
partners,
so
great
job,
those
in
favor
all
right,
closed
motion
carries
1.3
approved
thing.
The
official
results
for
the
december
12th
2020
city
of
bakedown
runoff
election.
E
Yeah
judge,
I
will
verify
that.
I
checked
that
the
reason
that
the
two
council
members
didn't
get
any
votes
on
that
one
election
was
because
it
wasn't
in
chambers
county.
So.
A
Those
in
favor
motion
carries
one
six
same
thing
for
the
new
county
court
at
law,
judge.
C
A
A
Carries
1.8
discuss
and
consider
extending
the
january
12th
2021
deadline,
giving
the
purchasing
agent
to
return
with
seal
bids
for
the
sale
of
victoria
walker
park
to
january
26.
2021.
billy
this.
I
know
scott
talked
to
me
about
it
and
that
you
need
that
extra
time
right.
E
A
A
Good
morning,
sam
okay,
there,
you
are
all
right,
we're
going
to
economic
development,
tourism,
5.1,
discuss
and
consider
approving
task
authorization
number
two
for
freeze
and
nickels
incorporated
related
to
the
development
and
submission
of
the
texas
water
development
board.
Flood
infrastructure
fund
application
submitted
october
19,
20
20.
K
So
this
task
authorization
is
for
the
actual
development
of
the
application
that
was
submitted
to
the
texas
water
development
development
board's
flood
infrastructure
fund.
As
the
judge
knows,
I
think
several
of
you
know
we
actually
did
receive
this
grant.
We
got
notice
at
the
end
of
last
week
that
we
were
approved.
We
were
actually
ranked
fourth
in
the
state
as
far
as
applications
go,
which
is
a
huge
accomplishment,
especially
because
we
had
no
additional
requests
for
information,
and
we
were
unique
in
that.
As
far
as
the
state
goes.
K
It's
right
at
6.2
million.
If
I'm
not
mistaken,
I
can
pull
that
number
for
you
right
now.
C
K
So
this
grant
is
going
to
be
used
for
the
creation
of
a
virtually
county-wide
drainage
study.
So
what
freeze
and
nicholls
is
going
to
do
is
work
with
the
city
of
mount
bellevue.
The
county
liberty
counties
involved
as
well
city
of
dayton,
city
of
liberty,
we're
working
to
all
together
to
develop
a
comprehensive
drainage
study.
That's
going
to
help
us
identify
any
major
areas
that
we
need
to
work
on,
how
the
water
flows
to
and
through
chambers
county,
and
will
be
the
foundation
for
developing
any
drainage
plan.
Moving
forward.
K
K
Correct-
and
this
engineer
will
lump
in
that
study
into
one
deliverable
package
for
us
to
have
a
comprehensive
study,
so
we're
going
to
get
that
data
from
tbcd
and
even
though
they
didn't
complete
the
actual
study
they're
going
to
include
that
in
the
assessment
of
the
county's
drainage.
F
K
K
This
is
going
to
be
a
complicated
process,
because
not
everybody's
area
of
study
is
going
to
be
the
same
size,
and
so
we
have
to
develop
the
actual
study
parameters
and
then
pinch
off
percentages
for
each
individual
entity
from
that
and
we'll
base
match
percentages
off
of
that
we
are
in
the
process
of
that,
though,
and
every
entity
that's
agreed
to
partner
is
understands
that
they
will
be
expected
to
share
in
the
final
match
that
we
have
to
pay
now
the
match
is
paid
on
each
individual
invoice.
K
Once
we
receive
the
official
contract
and
begin
the
project,
so
the
match
percentage
that
the
county
will
be
expected
to
come
up
with
will
be
paid
in
a
percentage.
So
you
won't
by
any
means,
be
expected
to
come
up
with
500
000,
all
at
once,
it'll
be
paid
little
by
little,
and
I
don't
have
the
final
number
on
what
our
percentage
is
yet
because,
like
I
said,
we
have
to
develop
the
study
area.
I
do
know
that
the
city
of
mont
bellevue
and
their
engineer
is
going
to
take
on
roughly
40
of
the
studies.
K
They're,
taking
the
lead
on
that
study,
area
and
kind
of
directing
the
depth
of
that
area,
we're
all
working
really
closely
to
get
together
to
make
sure
that
all
of
our
needs
are
met.
K
It's
a
four
month
contract.
So
within
two
years
we
should
have
a
completed
deliverable
for
you
guys.
D
K
K
Yes,
we
I've
really
enjoyed
working
with
them
so
far,
they're
very
easy
to
work
with
really
easy
to
get
a
hold
of
with
any
questions
that
we've
had
along
the
way.
Very,
very
knowledgeable,
so
they've
been
a
pleasure
to
work
with
so
far.
K
First,
I
need
a
motion
for
you
guys
to
approve
their
their
draw
or
their
request
for
phone.
So.
K
K
Yes,
sir,
so
this
kind
of
started
a
long
time
ago.
Back
in
the
summer
time,
I
was
approached
by
a
different
entity.
What
I'm
asking
for
is
for
craftsmen.
I
was
approached
by
an
entity
called
game
time.
They
had
some
grants
available
for
playground
equipment,
and
so
I
kind
of
got
to
looking
at
areas
that
I
felt
needed
some
playground,
equipment
or
improved
playground
equipment,
and
I
talked
to
a
couple
commissioners
and
then
it
kind
of
died
on
the
table
whenever
we
put
the
moratorium
on
spending.
K
So
I
didn't
press
for
it
at
that
time,
so
those
grants
kind
of
went
away,
but
craftsman
had
some
really
great
discounts
on
playground,
equipment
that
would
have
been
basically
equal
to
the
grant
that
we
would
have
been
able
to
get
and
so
kirk
and
I
talked
about
the
areas
that
he
felt
playground.
K
Equipment
was
needed,
and
these
are
just
small
units,
but
basically
what
we
came
up
with
was
gregory
park
and
stole
double
bio
park,
hancomer,
community
building,
beach
city,
community
building
and
cedar,
bionics
and-
and
I've
talked
to,
like,
I
said,
a
couple
of
you
guys
about
this,
and
so
I
just
went
through
and
developed
a
little
presentation.
K
You
know
I
didn't
want
to
make
a
write,
a
research
paper
on
why
playgrounds
are
important
because
I
think
we
all
know
they're
important
but-
and
I
took
pictures
of
the
existing
equipment
and
kirk
took
some
pictures
as
well.
So
you
could
see
what's
there
or
not
there,
but
I
really
think
with
covid
and
the
way
the
world
is
now.
We
need
to
have
more
safe
place
space
for
kids
in
our
communities,
and
this
is
a
great
way
to
get
a
lot
of
bang
for
our.
K
F
D
F
K
K
K
C
Good
morning,
commissioners,
this
is
an
application
for
represented
by
florida,
their
project
reports,
as
you
know,
the
court,
the
proposal
for
incentives
on
the
competitor
project.
So
this
is
simply
the
administrative
step
to
present
the
application
for
approval
by
the
court
and
to
request
these
thousands
of
reinvestments.
C
Just
by
way
of
reminders,
this
project
is
going
to
be
a
1.5
million
square
foot
facility,
the
competing
sites
for
baltimore
maryland
georgia.
They
anticipate
the
creation
of
86
jobs.
A
Initially,
and
in
five
years
since
the
operation
this
this
project's
been
worked
on
quite
a
while
in
it
b.j.
C
A
D
B
B
You
you
said
it,
but
it
broke
up,
but
what's
the
total
amount
of
employment
we're
looking
for
at
the
end
of
this
project
on
par.
C
Yeah,
so
that's
a
very
good
point
just
wanted
to
share
they
anticipated
annual
flow
through.
You
know,
they're
going
to
be
serving
10
states
from
this
location,
so
the
annual
flow
through
of
inventory
is
200
million.
But
the
estimate
of
inventory
is
that
40.
F
C
Addition
of
floor
and
decor
ikea
home
depot,
walmart
and
others
soon
to
be
announced
as
a
significant
player
in
the
domestic
and
global
logistics
and
supply
chain
sector.
A
C
Conduct
a
public
hearing
to
establish
the
reinvestment
zone
for
chapter
this
project's,
going
to
be
located
on
99.7
acres
in
cedar
port
and
the
request
is
to
hold
a
public
hearing
to
designate
the
reinvestment.
C
Judge,
if
I
may,
I
just
wanted
to
add
to
the
prevailing
sentiment.
That's
been
expressed
related
to
commissioner
nelson
time
on
the
court
almost
mirrors
my
time
here
at
the
foundation
we
had
foundation
obviously
appreciate
the
support
he's
provided,
but
on
a
personal
note
and
really
appreciated
the
working
relationship,
we've
had.
A
Yeah,
I
think
one
of
the
things
he's
going
to
do
in
the
future.
Is
he
and
I
are
going
to
have
a
two-week
quarantine
every
year
in
september,.
A
A
A
Right,
billy
glad
to
hear
patricia's
doing
good,
give
her
her
best.
A
C
I
2019
october
2019
and
we
discussed
a
successful
commissioner
from
the
judge
we
decided
to
to
to
help
us
reduce
the
budget
a
little
bit.
We
we
budgeted
for
a
significant
amount
of
part-time
employees,
which
was
a
great
thing
to
give
the
people
that
were
in
town,
the
people
that
have
worked
at
analog
treaty
day.
The
opportunity
to
stay
part-time
is
going
to
get
full-time
jobs
and
give
us
access
to
keep
appropriate
staffing
levels
from
cambridge
county
ems
and
keep
it
at
a
minimum.
I
Our
two
trucks
and
our
supervisor
on
duty
every
single
day
that
everyone
knows
we've
been
dealing
with.
For
the
last
10
months,
television
19
has
created
some
pretty
unique
challenges
in
the
ems
industry,
public
health,
community
and
everything
else
for
us
every
time,
there's
a
wave
of
2019
across
our
region,
ems
services,
research,
part-time
employees
for
working.
So
let's,
on
top
of
that,
you
have
your
quarantines.
I
You
got
your
potential
possible
co-goodnight
teaser,
eight
year
contract,
only
19.,
which
luckily,
we've
done
really
well
and
we've
had
two
page
two
of
our
employees
most
part
time.
They
contracted
kobe
19
and
that's
it
so
we've
been
able
to
modify
that
and
not
quarantine
as
much
and
do
some
other
things
to
help,
prevent
and
protect
our
employees
and
what
it
calls
is.
I
It
causes
us
from
time
to
time
to
go
down
to
minimal
staffing,
have
two
trucks
and
a
supervisor
on
duty,
and
we
end
up
doing
that
thing
with
significant
amounts
of
overtime
or
myself
will
come
in
and
cover
that
slot,
which
is
you
know,
causes
me
to
have
my
you
know,
flex
time
that
I've
to
take
currently
I've
got
167
hours
of
flex
time
that
I
currently
have
because
of
this
for
me
doing
different
things
truck
and
covering
as
a
supervisor
for
the
day.
I
So
we'll
keep
our
staffing
levels
up,
and
it
alleviates
me
from
having
the
mandatory
my
employees
to
work
when
they
really
don't
want
to
especially
around
the
holiday
time.
So
I
worked
with
aaron
pretty
closely
last
week
got
affected
the
budget,
and
the
request
that
I'm
putting
in
is
that
he
transfers
from
that
part-time
budget
that
we
have.
We
actually
had
480
thousand
dollars
allocated
part-time
employees,
50
paramedics
every
single
day
from
four
hours.
I
They
send
me
the
week,
reduce
that
by
200
and
reduce
that
down
to
240
000,
which
gives
us
240
000
left
over
and
put
that
money
towards
hiring
three
full-time
paramedics.
I
Three
full-time
paramedics
gives
us
two
trucks:
every
single
day,
a
paramedic
on
both
sides
of
the
river
mobility
security
unit,
plus
a
supervisor
and
an
assistant
supervisor
on
duty,
which
gives
us
access
to
three
trucks
every
single
day
without
question
it
without
having
to
guarantee
part-timers.
I
know
y'all
seen
all
the
payroll
change
forms
go
throughout
the
commissioner's
court
for
the
last
several
months.
Currently
we
have
21
part-time
employees
out
of
those
21
only
about
six
of
them.
I
Right
because
of
the
restrictions,
and
so
we're
just
we're
we're
having
a
hard
time
maintaining
staffing,
and
so
what
what
this
allows
us
to
do
is
allow
us
to
make
sure
we
maintain
staffing
and,
as
far
as
budget-wise
concerned,
that
increases
our
budget
for
2021
by
52
000.
I
However,
now
that
we
finally
have
our
revenue
coming
in
we're
more
stable,
we're
collecting
about
30
000
a
month
in
revenue,
35
000
a
month
in
revenue,
even
with
our
call
volume
being
a
little
bit
down
and
collection
waiting,
we
myself
and
eric,
and
we
adjusted
the
revenue
line
item
from
50
000
to
100
000,
which
basically
offsets
the
budget,
because
we
know
for
sure
that
we're
going
to
collect
you,
know
100
000
pretty
easily
by
march
or
april.
So
that'll
offset
the
budget
to.
E
I
So
currently
we
have
three
full-time
or
three
paramedics
that
are
part-time.
Two
of
them
actually
worked
for
liberty,
county
ems,
and,
if
you
didn't
know,
liberty,
county
ems
lost
their
contract
with
liberty
county
a
few
weeks
ago,
and
those
guys
were
all
basically,
you
know,
their
service
was
shut
down.
How
many
jobs
so
that'll
give
two
of
those
will
have
we'll
be
given
the
option
for
a
full-time
employment,
just
upgraded
full-time
and
the
third
position
there's
another
part-timer
that
might
be
interested
as
well.
I
So
there's
a
good
chance
that
we're
basically
going
to
face
three
of
the
paramedics
that
already
worked
for
us
in
the
workforce,
part-time
that
already
pretty
much
trained
and
know
what
we
do
and
how
we
do
things
and
they'll,
basically
just
transition
into
a
full-time
employment
like
we
did
with
mr
morris
and
mr
barth
a
couple
months
ago.
I
I
No
sir,
at
this
point,
nothing's
changed,
but
the
budget's
not
going
to
be
any
different
and
the
plan
is
to
hire
those
part-time
employees
that
they're
still
interested
in
coming
off
full-time.
So
there
won't
be
any
any
lapses.
Left
in
training
or
anything
like
that,
and
basically
they'll
just
transition
from
working
24
hours
a
week
to
a
full-time
schedule,
working
our
normal
4896
rotation
and
be
assigned
to
a
shift
with
whatever
supervisor
they're
assigned
to.
I
Jack
kelly
is
one
of
the
medics
and
supervisors
of
the
county.
That's
interesting,
coming
on
full-time.
I
think
he
still
has
two
more
training
shifts.
He
has
to
go
through
as
far
as
his
ride-outs
and
he'll
have
those
completed
before
we
transition
to
the
full-time
and
I'll
have
the
names
and
the
payroll
change
forms
ready
for
next
quarter.
B
I
It's
been
difficult,
staffing
and
continuing
to
staff
the
ambulances
and
paying
out
over
time
we
usually
have
one
or
two
people
on
overtime,
every
single
shift
with
quarantine
and
with
the
lack
of
part-time
employees
to
make
sure
we
keep
our
minimal
staffing
in
order,
and
so
this
will
allow
us
to
reduce
our
overtime,
but
also
when
we
do
some
of
the
stress
with
the
medics
from
having
me
working
the
additional
overtime.
You
know
everybody.
J
I
I
To
cover
so
next
year,
when
medics
do
start
getting
their
vacation
because
all
of
our
medicines
start
getting
a
vacation
kicking
in
in
january
and
in
march
then
we'll
have
the
additional
staffing
that's
already
in
place
to
cover
that
vacation
time,
so
that
the
quarantine
so
that
trovia
19
doesn't
reduce
them
from
taking
time
off
with
a
family
that
they
can
do
so.
G
I
We
have
a
minimum
of
two
exposures
every
single
day.
Now
there
are
mild
exposures
for
all
of
our
medics.
They
wear
their
full
ppe
they've
got
their
gallons,
their
face
mask
their
goggles
on
the
nine
yards,
so
it's
considered
a
non-exposure,
but
with
the
ryan
white
law
and
the
other
laws
that
regulate
how
we
do
investigations
and
exposures
we're
required
to
track
every
single
exposure
from
start
to
end.
So
I
think
currently
right
now,
just
for
example.
I
Just
this
weekend
we
had
five
different
exposures
with
patients
that
were
transported
that
were
positive,
covered
19
patients
that
we're
dealing
with
and
doing
the
constant
contact,
training
working
with
the
hospitals
and
providing
information
to
the
public
health
department.
I
And
it's
just
you
know
it
just
provides
some
unique
challenges.
The
same
challenges
that
all
the
other
department
heads
have
to
deal
with
for
us,
it's
just
a
little
bit
more
stringent
because
we
are
on
the
front
line.
My
guys
are
seeing
this
on
a
regular
basis,
every
single
day
dealing
with
constant
contact.
I
C
I
Their
mental
health
and
just
help
them
a
little
bit
more
comfortable
is
a
benefit
to
my
entire
team.
Those
guys
have
done
a
great
job.
We've
slammed
together,
an
ems
service
in
the
middle
of
pandemic,
brought
in
a
bunch
of
different
personalities,
a
bunch
of
different
people
with
different
experience,
levels
from
different
services
from
around
around
the
state
realistically
and
they've
done
a
fantastic
job
of
of
maintaining
it
and
creating.
I
You
know,
in
my
opinion,
one
of
the
best
services
in
southeast
texas
we've
got
really
aggressive
protocols
and
we've
got
some
really
top-notch
medics
with
you
know,
over
500
years
of
experience
between
all
of
our
different
shifts,
which
is
pretty
phenomenal
compared
to
some
of
the
other
struggles
that
other
email
services
are
going
through
and
my
guys
are,
even
with
all
of
that,
they're
still
happy
we're
still
family
friendly
family,
oriented
type
service
and
they're
all
having
a
you
know,
they're
all
really
engaged
with
the
stress
and
and
still
energy,
and
have
a
good
time
and
enjoy
what
we
do,
which
is
hard
to
do
sometimes,
especially
during
the
height
of
this
10
minutes.
F
I
see
you
have
it
here
that
take
approximately
two
months
to
get
medics,
do
training
release
to
work
the
units
on
a
regular
schedule.
What's
the
difference
of
working
the
regular
schedules
and,
and
then
what
they're
doing
now
I
mean,
why
does
it
take
two
months
to
get
them
online.
I
I
I
Class
plus
a
minimum
of
seven
to
ten
shift
rotations
24-hour
shifts
to
make
it
through
our
our
training
process,
and
that's
that's
us
required
to
the
state.
So
if.
I
The
outside,
which,
at
this
point
I
don't
think
it's
gonna,
I
don't
think
that's
gonna,
be
a
problem,
but
if
we
had
to
basically
post
those
positions
and
and
hire
from
the
outside
and
hire
brand
new,
that
would
cause
the
staff
to
put
in
through
an
orientation
training
process
which
could
take
up
to
about
two
months.
Okay,
that's
48
hours
a
week.
Basically,
so
they
have
to
ride
10
shifts.
That's
five
shifts
that's
five
weeks
at
a
minimum,
plus
their
in-class
training
as
well.
I
So
they
can
take
up
to
two
months
to
get
them
completely
through
the
training
process
so
like
if
we,
if
we're
able
to
hire
those
part-time
employees
when
they
come
on
full-time
that
alleviates.
A
lot
of
that
they'll
be
ready
to
go.
You
know
by
the
middle
of
next
month
wants
to
prove
the
commissioner's
work.
F
I
Mean
it,
you
know,
you
know
like
it,
increases
our
budget
a
little
bit,
and
it
also
still
provides
us
that
part-time
funding
to
keep
one
or
two
part-timers
on
duty
every
single
day,
and
so
all
those
people
that
have
been
working
with
us
throughout
the
entire
process
during
the
pandemic.
It
won't
cause
them
to
lose
any
of
their
hours
as
well.
I
So
it
still
takes
care
of
everybody
the
part
time
and
gives
us
the
full
time
without
increasing
our
budget
or
costing
us
any
more
money
to
reduce
some
of
our
costs
and
over
time
with
the
governor
next
year.
Of
course,
all
pandemic
and
and
driven
based
on
all
of
that.
F
I
Things
about
you,
gentlemen,
approving
chambers,
county
ems,
in
october,
one
of
the
struggles
we
had
towards
the
beginning
of
march
of
this
year.
The
start
of
the
pandemic
was
that
you
know
because
it
was
new,
because
nobody
knew
what
was
going
on
most
full-time
employees,
including
us
at
chambers,
county
ems
restricted
their
part-time
employment,
so
they
restricted
their
medics
from
working
other
jobs
outside
of
their
full-time
job,
just
because
to
limit
the
exposure
and
try
and
help
figure
out
what
was
going
on
with
the
virus
for
us
at
chambers,
county
ems.
I
Luckily
getting
our
license
the
way
we
did
and
kind
of
putting
everything
together
in
the
height
of
the
pandemic.
Had
we
not
been
in
that
position,
I
think,
especially
for
anna
whack,
and
especially
in
trinity
bay
or
cove,
they
would
have
suffered,
for
example,
in
cove
all
of
their
employees,
with
the
exception
of
two
were
part-time
employees,
so
now
they're
all
restricted
from
working
a
job.
Second
job.
I
You
wouldn't
have
nobody
to
cover
those
ambulances
and
same
thing
in
animal
act
they
had
four
full-time
employees
and
four
full-time
employees
can't
cover
an
ambulance
24
hours
a
day.
Seven
days
a
week,
so
it
would
cause
some
pretty
significant
restrictions
for
us
and
then,
with
these
disasters
and
the
potential
disasters
we
have
with
hurricane
maura
hurricane
beta
hurricane
delta,
because
we
had
the
full-time
staff
that
we
had
at
chambers
county
ems.
I
Huge
benefit
for
the
county.
For
for
that,
and
then
also
now
that
we
have
chambers,
county
ems
and
winning
ems
and
we've
all
worked
closely
together,
we
needed
them
really
good
over
there.
We
have
the
same
medical
directors
the
same
protocols,
so
we
have
the
same
continuation
of
care
at
any
part
of
the
county
that
you're
in
you've
got
the
same
treatment
modalities,
the
same
aggressive
treatments
that
we
have
for
a
rural
type,
ems
environment
that
covers
the
entire
county
versus
having
three
different
medical
directors.
I
Two
different
sets
of
protocols
through
different
sets
of
policies
and
procedures,
now
chamberlain,
medicine
ems
are
on.
I
Aggressive
compared
to
some
other
services,
just
because
of
the
the
nature
of
the
rural
environment
that
we're
in
and
the
delay
transports
the
the
distance
we
have
in
the
hospitals,
we
have
to
be
a
little
bit
more
aggressive
with
our
patients
and
have
little
and
better
opportunities
to
treat
those
patients
than
you
would
have
in
a
municipality
type
environment.
A
So
I
I
guess
you
do
re,
I
don't
you
realize
when
we're
looking
at
creating
the
terms
kind
of
ems,
we'd
also
considered
contracting
with
liberty,
county
ems,
and
I
don't
know
the
issues
between
liberty,
county
and
liberty,
county
ems,
but
it
looks
like
we.
We
went
in
the
right
direction,
commissioner
guard
you
say
something.
F
F
A
A
Approved
20
yeah
1919
approved
2021
funding
agreements
when
he
stole
ems.
My
belky
vfd
oak
island,
double
bio,
vfd,
old
river,
volunteer
fire
department,
smith,
point
wallaceville
when
he
stole
san
francisco
water,
rescue
and
cove
volunteer
fire
department.
Any
questions
on.
I
Anyone
have
any
requirements
for
getting
those
in
as
quick
as
they
did.
We
had
those
packages
beginning
of
october
and
the
ones
that
haven't
turned
them
in
and
made
contact
with
me
due
to
some
potential
leadership
changes
within
the
department.
So
I
should
have
those
for
the
next
court
agenda
and
then
all
of
the
fire
and
ems
services
within
chambers
county
will
have
their
funding,
probably
by
the
middle
of
january,
which
is
a
pretty
good
thing.
A
A
Ron:
okay,
we
voted
on
it.
A
A
A
B
A
Yeah,
let's
go
to
consent
under
payroll.
I
have
one
to
add:
it'd,
be
mirangely
adams,
she's,
going
from
executive
assistant,
county
attorney's
office
to
court
coordinator
for
the
county
court
at
law;
no
change
in
the
pay,
so
we'll
walk
that
one
through.
A
We
need
to
take
a
24
executive
session
per
the
county
attorney
number
six
payroll
changes
to
executive
session
and
then
we'll
have
an
executive
session
all
right,
gary
you're.
First,
the
questions
on
the
consent.
E
A
E
F
E
A
A
Let
me
commend
rit
folks,
mainly
austin,
for
this
year
has
been
a
challenge,
virtually
courts,
and
you
know
not
only
commissioners
corp,
but
judicial
courts
and
I'm
proud
to
have
some
young
folks
around
me
that
understand
what's
going
on,
so
they
can
help
me
out,
even
if
they
