Invited
me
to
speak
Thank
You
members
of
the
County
Board.
The
farm
bureau
strongly
supports
the
concept
of
Agri
tourism
as
a
way
to
promote
and
market
agricultural
and
associated
agricultural
products.
The
Kinki
County
Regional
Planning
Commission
of
which
I'm
a
member
along
with
the
County
Planning
Department
staff,
spent
a
considerable
amount
of
time.
Constructing
the
Agri
tourism
ordinance
draft
you
have
before
you.
We
feel
that
what
we've
put
together
is
solid
but
flexible
enough
to
allow
for
consideration
of
forward-thinking
concepts.
E
D
F
Chairman
wheeler
and
the
County
Board
members
for
the
opportunity
to
come
before
you
today.
My
name
is
Kelsey
McGrath
communications
coordinator
at
the
Kankakee
County
Convention
and
Visitors
Bureau.
Our
director
Stacey
Wilkin,
is
in
Springfield
today
meeting
with
legislators
advocating
for
tourism
in
Kankakee
County
and
was
unable
to
attend.
She
has
prepared
remarks
in
support
of
the
Agri
tourism
ordinance
proposed
on
today's
agenda
as
the
destination
marketing
organization
charged
with
the
promotion
of
tourism
in
Kankakee
County.
F
It
is
our
privilege
to
work
alongside
the
creative
minds
that
find
a
way
to
incorporate
agriculture
into
an
experience
worth
visiting.
We
serve
as
storyteller
for
22
communities
throughout
Kankakee
County,
each
with
their
own
unique
identity.
One
of
our
greatest
stories
that
we
can
tell
is
the
history
of
agriculture
in
Kankakee
County
and
as
the
world
changes,
it's
our
job
to
keep
up.
F
We
work
on
behalf
of
farms
and
markets
across
the
county
to
promote
their
unique
experience
to
a
regional
audience
in
our
printed
publications,
digital
content
campaigns
and
social
media,
whether
it's
dining
at
a
100
foot
handcrafted
table
under
the
Stars
visiting
one
of
the
best
farmers
market
in
the
state
or
making
memories
at
in
patches
and
tree
farms.
We
are
grateful
for
the
vision
to
bring
visitors
to
the
Kankakee
River
Valley.
The
ordinance
before
you
today
is
proof
that
Kankakee
County
is
positioning.
It
positioning
itself
for
future
growth
in
all
areas
of
tourism.
F
Thank
you
to
mr.
skimmer
horn,
mr.
Miller
and
the
Regional
Planning
Commission
for
meticulously
working
through
the
process
to
be
a
community
that
allows
us
to
showcase
our
agricultural
roots
to
allow
the
dreams
of
small
business
owners
and
farmers
to
come.
True.
We
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
be
involved
and
asked
for
your
support
and
the
agritourism
ordinance.
Thank
you.

An
on
file
is
the
compliance
review.
A
If
you
look,
if
you
have
to
just
to
mention
that,
if
you
look
at
one
of
the
reports,
mr.
Kinzinger,
you
noted
that
there
was
a
page
six
that
was
not
attached.
We
were
gonna
check
back
with
his
page
five
that
was
not
attached.
It
said
page
four
or
five,
and
then
there
was
not
another
page,
so
we're
gonna
check
with
mr.
Rogers
before
we
actually
put
that
out
file
to
make
sure
that
that
was
not
an
omission,
but
I
think
it
would
be
the
exception.
A
A
H
H
A
A
D
D
C
A
I
Do
believe
that
you
all
took
this
to
the
Attorney
General,
and
she
at
that
time
she
did
not
respond
and
generally
when
they
don't
either.
They
feel
that
it's
not
a
germane
issue
for
them
to
deal
with.
Stick
with
the
law
or
they're
saying
the
law
is
it's
clear
in
this
fact
and
we
don't
need
to
basically
address
it,
but
what
I
found
offensive
is
the
conversation
that
takes
place
and
then
an
approval
of
this
resolution.
The
auditor
is
the
watchdog:
it's
the
public
watch
dog
of
this
community.
I
They
are
just
the
check
and
balances.
This
gentleman
that
we
have,
as
an
auditor
has
two
bachelor's
degree.
One
is
in
accounting.
The
other
thing
is
is
that
he
has
an
individual
that
works
with
me
also
has
not
only
two
bachelors,
but
he
has
a
master's
from
the
University
of
Illinois.
I
have
a
problem
when
we,
you
have
a
leadership
that
sits
on
this
particular
board
and
you
equate
or
even
suggest
that
an
individual
should
be
liking
a
to
less
than
1%
of
1%,
of
something
that
happened
in
the
South
County
out
of
102
counties.
I
I
Department
the
auditor
says:
I
have
no
problem
with
it,
but
it's
in
violation
of
the
state
law
he's
doing
what's
right,
but
when
we
turn
around
and
state
1
less
than
1%
of
1%
of
an
individual
who
y'all
found
in
the
South
County
out
of
102
counties
to
say
and
then
equated
with
this
gentleman.
That
calls
for
an
apology
from
this,
particularly
from
from
the
chairman
of
this
board.
Also,
you
said
that
you
got
people
that's
on
board.
I
D
I
And
if
I
didn't
like
got
to
be
calling
for
voluntary
resignation
of
the
Chairman
from
doing
this,
this
steps
on
the
board
of
you
saying
nothing,
personal,
but
it's
if
it's
not
if
it's
not
a
part
of
the
color
of
racism,
it's
a
very
least
blatant
prejudice
of
rigor
with
discrimination,
and
then
it's
topped
with
ethnic
degradation.
This
man's
intent
this
man's
integrity
in
the
paper
I,
would
never
want
to
read
nothing
like
this
from
a
board.
It
should
have
never
came
up
in
the
conversation,
keep
it
professional
I'm
getting
calls
all
of
you.
I
I
didn't
look
at
the
article
until
it's
pushed
it
splits
in
my
faith
and
said.
Look
at
this
this
man!
This
man
is
a
thief.
He
has
children
in
the
district
he's
a
taxpayer
and
we
have
to
had
a
sidebar
conversation.
You
gonna
have
the
meters
just
simply
say
this
is
what
I
want
to
do,
but,
though
you
didn't
say
he
was
still.
I
You
influences
twice
this
person
from
the
south.
She
wasn't
black,
she
wasn't
even
in
Spanish,
she
was
white.
How
does
that
equate
to
mr.
leash?
Keep
this
board
professional?
Don't
put
no
garbage
like
this
in
the
paper.
This
is
the
steady.
You
don't
do
this
so
therefore,
this
bill
after
I
read
it.
No,
we
need
financial
oversight
and
I'm
not
gonna,
say
that
the
law
needs
to
be
changed
because
we
want
to
change
it.
Nope.
A
All
right:
well,
the
only
thing
I'll
respond
to
is
is
the
I
guess
to
clarify
some
facts
that
were
misrepresented
in
that
there
are
only
12
counties
in
Illinois
where
there's
an
elected
auditor,
that's
also
mandated
to
be
the
accountant.
There
is
a
clear
conflict
with
that,
accounting
and
auditing
being
in
the
same
office.
There
are
six
other
counties
out
of
the
now
nine
counties
that
are
affected
by
this,
because
it
was
amended
to
two
hundred
thousand
population
between
two
hundred
thousand
and
seventy
five
thousand.
Six
of
those
nine
counties
also
support
this
House
bill.
A
Every
accountant
that
I've
ever
talked
to
says
you
can't
be
both
the
accountant
and
the
auditor.
This
bill
does
nothing
to
remove
the
duties
of
an
elected
auditor
watchdog
that
is
supposed
to
be
watching.
It
should
be
watching
everything.
We've
always
encouraged
that
throughout
this
whole
process,
to
call
this
racial
is
actually
silly.
It's
offensive
to
me
and
it's
offensive
to
the
other
people
on
this
board
that
believe
in
controls
and
checks
and
balances.
I
A
I
A
So
I
will
tell
you
that
we
handle
the
finances
of
the
county,
and
if
this
bill
does
not
pass,
we
will
move
accounting
into
the
auditor's
office
which,
ever
since
January
of
2017
that
we
have
said
I
have
said
has
to
happen
because
it's
the
state
law,
we
have
had
a
difference
on
the
definition
of
what
accounting
is
and
every
accountant
that
I've
talked
to
has
a
difference
than
what
our
county
auditor
feels.
Accounting
is.
So
these
are
not
people
that
work
for
the
county
or
do
any
business
with
the
county.
A
Those
folks
at
the
same
time
have
the
same
opinion
by
the
way
our
outside
auditors,
the
Attorney
General,
did
not
act
on
this.
For
two
reasons.
First
of
all,
we
asked
the
Attorney
General
to
define
accounting
for
us.
They
refused
to
do
so
because
there's
a
cait
a
case
in
court
right
now
that
the
Tazewell
County
auditor
is
suing
because
they're
not
they're,
saying
that
they're
they're
suing
their
County
Board,
because
they're
saying
they
don't
have
enough
money
to
discharge
the
duties
of
their
office.
A
They
cut
their
budget,
so
the
Attorney
General
for
not
for
the
reasons
you
stated
there.
They
specifically
said
why
they're
not
gonna
comment
on
this
case
right
now,
so
I'm
personally
offended
by
your
accusation
of
racism,
mr.
Snipes
and
I
will
not
be
resigning
any
day
soon
you
can
call
for
whatever
you
want
to.
This
has
never
been
about
personal
issues.
A
It's
been
about
the
business
before
this
board
and
me
protected
four
and
a
half
million
dollars
of
federal
money
that
we
get
from
the
federal
government
that
if
we
fail
the
single
audit
standards
by
having
the
same
Fox
in
the
henhouse,
I'd,
never
said
and
I
actually
said
in
the
newspaper.
Mr.
Lee
would
never
do
anything
like
that.
But
that's
why
the
federal
government
doesn't
give
you
money.
If
you
have
that
system
set
up
to
where
it
could
happen,
they
don't
and
what's
worse,
is
they
take
it
back
after
you've
spent
it?
G
D
To
return
to
the
substance
of
the
bill,
I
think
you've
explained
in
very
clear
detail
the
importance
of
having
an
adjustment
in
the
state
statute.
Clearly,
when
the
federal
government
announced
what
the
accounting
standards
were,
that
needed
to
be
followed,
the
state
legislature,
probably
in
part
because
there
were
so
few
counties
affected,
really
hadn't
paid
attention
to
what
was
going
on,
and
it
was
your
initiative
to
call
this
attention.
The
state
legislature,
that's
going
to
make
an
important
change.
So
I
want
to
speak
in
behalf
of
House
bill
3680.
I
I
Know
it
now
was
the
heat
in
this.
That's
you,
he
know
it.
The
style,
County
College's,
Joey
Wilkinson
into
a
first
stammers
well
recently
invited
from
them
and
official
misconduct.
What
does
that
have
to
do
with
the
county
would
beat
another
person
or
two
to
check
the
Hollinger
beautiful
it
move
back.

Mr.
pinzer,
as
I
read
this,
this
does
not
lie
to
County
Board
members
lists
are
currently
elected
or
a
majority
of
the
board
requested,
so
these
are
going
to
be
kind
of
wide
elected
officials
that
served
one
term
if
they
are
a
countywide
elected
official,
it
is
more
likely
that
people
remember
them,
even
if
it
was
only
one
term,
County
Board
members.
I
could
see
your
point,
but
as
I
read
the
policy,
it
does
not
apply
to
how
many
board
members,
unless
they're,
currently
elected
or
majority,
would
question.
I
I
served
on
this
board
in
1990
I
believe
was
in
1992.
There
was
kind
of
consistence
of
the
ball
because,
as
with
anyone
else
that
passed,
if
you
serve
on
this
particular
board,
I
think
it's
within
just
out
of
respect
that
we
have
a
buddy.
Everyone
else
does
in
government,
especially
when
you
are
a
elect
official
as
far
as
the
county
or
you
were
the
mayor
or
the
aldermen
or
you
as
a
state
rep
or
whether
they
put
the
burning
out
in
respect
and
in
honor
of
your
service.
I
To
this
particular
board,
I
feel
I
still
think
that
that
needs
that
needs
to
be
done
anytime,
a
board
member
passes.
It
shouldn't
have
to
be
longevity.
The
very
fact
that
she
was
elected
by
the
people
that
you
basically
served
to
form
this
board
and
basically
gave
you
a
service
I
think
you
as
an
individual
need
to
have
that
respect
given
to
you.
I
So
there
was
an
old
adage
by
when
the
pastor
says
that
was
quoting
from
an
old
proverb
that
says
as
an
old
duck
that
doesn't
praise
his
own
pond,
but
in
this
case
giving
respect
to
anyone
that
has
served
as
a
member
of
this
board,
whether
it
was
one
year
or
2,000
years,
which
we
know.
That's
not
gonna,
be
the
case.
I
But
I
think
that
that
person
needs
to
basic,
be
honored,
it's
just
a
respect
when
the
person
passes
on
or
dies
it's
just
a
given
respect,
so
I
don't
think
that
it
takes
a
quorum
on
the
board
to
basically
make
that
decision.
I
just
think
out
of
respect,
it
doesn't
cost
us
anything
as
far
as
putting
the
bun
out
there,
no
more
than
a
respect
and
I
know
that
everybody's
not
gonna
die
at
the
same
time.
So
therefore
we
need
to
honor.
Hopefully
that's
not
the
case.

Like
to
explain
mine
answer,
if
the
board
would
happen
to
miss
somebody,
you
know
that
would
be
pardon
the
expression,
a
kick
in
the
teeth
to
that
family
member
who
served
on
the
board
there's
a
lot
of
times
that
people
moved
out
of
the
area
and
stuff
like
that.
You
don't
get
a
notification,
and
that
is
the
reason
my
answer
was
Nate.
H
A
D
A
C
A
E
A
J
J
For
them
to
follow
so
we
over
the
course
of
the
last
several
months
worked
with
the
Regional
Planning
Commission
to
develop
a
and
Agri
tourism
ordinance.
First
thing
we
found
out
that
Illinois
is
one
of
the
only
states
in
the
Midwest
that
does
not
have
a
statute
that
addresses
Agri
tourism.
So
we
didn't
have
a
lot
of
guidance
from
the
from
the
state
statutes
on
this.
We
developed
our
own
purpose
and
intent
for
it,
which
state
skanky
county
recognizes
that
the
county's
tourism
industry
is
interconnected
with
its
rural
economy.
J
J
First
thing
we
look
for
is
the
definition
that
was,
that
was
a
tough
one
to
come
up
with
Agri
tourism
can
mean
a
lot
of
things,
and
everybody
has
a
different
idea
of
what
it
means.
So
we
came
up
with
a
definition
on
our
own
that
Agri
tourism
is
defined
as
any
non
agricultural
activity
which
attracts
the
public
to
an
agricultural
operation
for
promotion,
enjoyment,
education
and
or
active
involvement
in
the
agricultural
operation,
and
that's
a
fairly
broad
definition,
so
that
can
include
a
lot
of
different
things.
J
One
thing
through
all
of
our
discussions
that
we
did
did
seem
to
keep
rising
to
the
top.
Was
the
agriculture
must
be
the
predominant
use
of
the
property?
You
can't
have
the
tourism
side
of
it
without
the
agriculture,
so
agriculture
must
exist
on
the
property
first
and
be
maintained
throughout
the
agritourism
use.
J
So
what
kind
of
uses
are
we
talking
about?
Matrix
is
a
little
hard
to
read,
but
there's
a
lot
of
different
ones
could
be
retail
sales,
such
as
farmers,
markets,
farm
stands,
gift
shops,
craft
shops
could
be
recreation
such
as
rady,
rodeos,
equestrian
sports,
animal
shows,
food
services
could
offer
picnic
areas,
concession
stands,
restaurants
or
even
banquet
halls
could
be
tasting.
J
So
when
we
get
into
the
regulations,
I
did
not
put
all
of
them
up
here,
but
some
of
the
things
that
we
did
consider
was
the
type
of
uses
like
I
talked
about.
We
have
parking.
That
was
a
big
one,
because
some
of
the
complaints
on
the
ones
we
do
have
existing
work.
Hardware,
parking
issues,
people
parking
along
the
roads,
blocking
roads,
not
having
enough
emergency
access
into
the
facilities.
So
we
wrote
regulations
addressing
that
signage
I'm,
assuming
most
of
these
places
will
want
signs
for
people
to
know
they're
there.
J
So
we
wanted
to
regulate
that
sanitary
facilities
such
as
bathrooms
and
potable
water
building
codes.
We
did
address
that
that
they
one
thing
that's
interesting,
is
that
most
agricultural
buildings
do
not
have
to
follow
the
building
codes
or
there's
limited
codes.
They
do
have
to
follow
in
this
case
you're
changing
that
from
an
agricultural
use
to
a
tourism
use,
so
any
buildings
used
may
have
to
follow
the
building
code,
so
there
may
be
some
retrofitting
that
would
have
to
occur
there
and,
of
course
we
cannot
exempt
anyone
from
ata
requirements
setbacks.
J
We
looked
at
that
hours
of
operation
and
noise
limits
and
nuisance
control.
I
did
kind
of
hard
to
read
up
there,
but
we
got
we
didn't
address
every
one
of
those.
You
should
have
the
ordinance
in
front
of
you.
If
you
want
more
specifics
on
any
of
those
items,
coverage
limitations,
since
agriculture
needs
to
be
the
predominant
use.
We
determined
that
forty
percent,
only
forty
percent
of
any
given
parcel,
could
be
used
for
tourism.
J
I,
think
capacity
limits
lot
size
minimums.
We
felt
that
the
lot
sizes
in
the
a1
and
a2
were
already
adequate.
So
there
were
no
additions
to
that
and
we
did
put
a
disclaimer
in
there
that
other
codes,
laws
and
regulations
do
need
to
be
followed
because
some
of
them
links
that
are
outside
of
our
jurisdiction,
such
as
camping,
you
do
have
to
have
a
license
from
Illinois
Department
of
Public
Health.
You
want
a
campground.
J
That
would
follow
the
normal
special
use
permit
process
and
go
to
the
Zoning
Board
of
Appeals
and
be
ultimately
approved
by
the
county
board
and
then
there's
a
permanent
permit
for
somebody
who's
going
to
want
to
do
it
for
an
indefinite
period
of
time,
which
would
also
follow
our
normal
special
use.
Permit
process
and
that's
the
quick
version.
N
D
J
N
A
E
A
That,
because
it's
not
a
tourism
related
activity,
exactly
this
exists
for
those
those
folks
who
have
farm-to-table
dinners-
and
you
know,
wedding
receptions
where
they
serve
beef
from
the
the
you
know
they
slaughter
their
own
cows
or
whatever.
You
know
that
whole
deal
music
by
the
campfire.
You
know
this
doesn't
it's.
We
already
allow
farm
stands.
Okay,.
N
A
N
A
A
requirement
by
our
zoning
that
that
these
types
of
activities
could
not
occur,
and
so
we
wanted
to
allow
them
to
occur.
So
we
created
the
framework
for
it
to
occur.
They
couldn't
do
it
right
now.
No,
because
that
they
could
have
a
structure
that
didn't
meet
fire
code,
and
so
the
township
fire
department
would
have
to
shut
it
down.
I
mean
you
want
to
explain
the
situation.
This.
J
Now,
if
you're
going
to
invite
50
people
regularly
to
come
into
that
pole,
barn
for
a
banquet
or
weddings,
then
it
does
need
building
codes.
I,
think
you're,
focusing
on
the
farm
stands
farm
stands
are
already
allowed
by
our
ordinance.
So
if
you
just
want
a
farm
stand,
you
can
have
that.
But
if
you
want
a
farm
stand
and
maybe
a
petting
zoo
and
a
pumpkin
patch
tour,
that's
tourism,
you're
gonna
need,
or
we
had
a
situation
just
last
week.
J
A
lady
asked
me
she
raises
horses
and
has
horse
shows
well
that's
equestrian
sports,
if
that's
all
she's
doing
it's
already,
oh
okay,
but
if
she
wants
to
link
that
up
with
the
other
uses
that
are
on
that
list
and
have
a
whole
facility
to
attract
people
there
for
tourism,
then
the
Agri
tourism-
and
it
was
just
a
temporary
that
we
haven't
determined
the
fee
for
that
one.
Yet,
but
I'm
guessing
it's
gonna,
be
around
a
hundred
dollars
for
thee,
for
the
temporary
permit
is.
A
D
You,
mr.
chairman,
we
say
this
is
intended
to
provide
opportunity
under
hours
of
operation
if
we're
talking
wedding
receptions
and
possibly
parties
I,
don't
know
I'm,
probably
at
the
point
in
life
that
I'd
leave
a
wedding
reception
at
10
o'clock
at
night,
but
a
Friday
or
Saturday
night
I
can
see
some
people
wanting
to
stay
a
little
bit
later
than
10
o'clock
at
night
having
to
go
to
the
planning
director
every
time.
D
J
The
ten
o'clock
is
in
line
with
the
county's
noise
honor
ordinance
so
and
that's
what
the
hours
of
operation
are
about.
It
is
a
special
use
permit,
so
they
can
ask
for
special
treatment.
So
if
they
want
to
regularly
have
events
past
ten
o'clock,
they
can
ask
for
and
then
this
board
gets
to
decide
if
that's
appropriate
in
that
area.
I
Kind
of
feeling,
the
same
way
with
the
restrictive
cuz
tourism
kind
of
now
becomes
subjective.
In
that,
when
you
devote
when
you
look
at
the
borders,
it's
kind
of
shady,
because
you
can
have
an
event
but
say
if
you
had
the
event,
while
other
things
are
going
on
in
the
community
like
a
moment,
glass,
that's
or
something
could
that
be
considered.
Part
of
the
tourism.
I
We
don't
know
when
you're
saying
that
they're
doing
something
on
their
particular
property
and
they
need
a
permit
to
fine-tune
the
line
between
one
I
need
to
be
up
permit
and
when
it's
okay,
it's
really
not
definitive
in
this
or
that
what
you're
saying
it's?
Okay,
but
the
issue
is:
where
is
it
in
writing?
I
J
I
We're
gonna
assume
that
the
individuals
that's
looking
you
would
have
to
go
through
everything
to
define
what
to
what
is
considered
to
be
tourism
or
not
I
mean
they
don't
spend
a
lot
of
tab.
They
just
gonna,
go
to
the
county
site,
see
if
it's
approved
or
not
and
then
I'll
suddenly,
I
don't
want
them.
I,
don't
want
to
picket
it
or
I'm
ago.
We
use
the
resources
and
I'm
having
to
come
to
a
zoning
committee
to
define
where
that
line
begins
or
ends.
I'm.
J
Not
sure
I'm,
following
them,
they're
tourism,
as
I,
said
by
our
definition,
is
a
very
broad-based
those
uses
I
put
up.
There
are
only
an
example
of
some
of
the
many
uses
it
could
be
considered.
Agri
tourism
I'm
sure
there's
some
creative
people
out
there
that
could
come
up
with
some
more
we're,
not
defining
necessarily
those
uses
you
apply
for
the
use
you
would
like
to
do
show
on
the
application.
How
that
promotes
your
agricultural
use
and
will
apply
the
appropriate
building
and
zoning
codes
to
that
particular
use.
J
D
I
O
Anybody
else,
or
was
that
pretty
much,
that
was
the
only
one-
that's
the
only
one
so
I
mean
we
do
have
some
other
business.
People
who
do
yeah
would
fall
under
the
purview
of
this.
That
maybe
aren't
aware
that
this
is
now
gonna
be
imposed
on
them
and
we
haven't
really
gotten
the
feedback.
Is
that
not.
J
A
E
Thank
You
chairman,
yes
as
part
of
the
Regional
Planning
Commission,
we've
been
very
involved
with
it.
I
can
give
it
a
little
plug
our
County
Farm
Bureau
newspaper
goes
out
to
all
4,400
of
our
County
Farm
Bureau
members
monthly
and
on
the
front
page
on
the
top
for
the
January
issue,
talks
about
the
agritourism
zoning
ordinance
advancing
and
gives
an
invitation
to
our
Farm
Bureau
members
to
be
a
part
of
that
process.
Give
us
some
input
receive
a
draft
copy
of
the
ordinance
to
review.
E
A
The
some
of
the
issues
that
came
up
why
we
I
asked
for
this
to
be
explored
is,
is
because
other
communities
are
encouraging
this
type
of
activity.
We
have
had
situations
here,
but
there
was
parking
on
the
roads
and
blocking
the
roads.
Emergency
vehicles
couldn't
get
through
if
they
wanted
to
the
the
bands
were
playing
until
2:30
3:00
in
the
morning
and
the
neighbors
were
complaining,
so
we
had
to
come
up
with
a
frame
and
they
were
in
buildings.
A
One
building
had
hay
bales
with
open
heaters
in
it,
so
I
mean
there
was
things
that
had
to
be
addressed,
but
we
want
to
have
that
business
continue
within
the
county,
but
there
are
some
things
that
needed
to
be
addressed.
You
got
to
get
the
cars
off
the
road
you
got
to
be
up
to
fire
code
and-
and
there
are
a
DEA
issues
as
well
that
have
to
be
addressed.
A
You
know,
because
it's
all
subject
that
if
you
do
have
a
business,
there's
also
the
Health
Department,
if
they're
cooking
food
there,
they
have
to
do
the
triple
Basin
wash
and
all
those
codes
have
to
be
met
unless
they're
catering
in
food
and
they
don't
cook
it
there
on
the
premises.
So
it's
just
not
the
county
is
imposing
they
already
had.
You
know
liquor
licenses,
Health
Department,
and
then
they
really
had
to
comply
with
business
codes
and
the
the
township
Road
rules
or
the
county
road
rules.
A
So
this
was
a
framework
to
say,
have
added
and
then,
as
Dell
mentioned
in
committee,
at
some
point
we
may
say:
well,
this
aspect
isn't
working
very
well.
We
need
to
tweak
this.
This
is
going
to
be
kind
of
a
in
progress
type
situation,
we'll
see
how
this
works
for
the
county.
Well,
we
know
people
want
to
come
down
here
to
do
this
stuff
out
of
Chicago.
You
know
this
is
a
destination
and
it's
a
good
thing.
So
this.
J
Is
also
going
to
offer
convenience,
as
mr.
wheeler
was
stating
you
still,
you
already
needed
the
health
permits
and
all
these
other
we're
gonna
give
that
to
them
once
they
apply
we're
gonna
give
them
all
the
referral
forms
they
need
based
on
their
application,
so
they
won't
have
to
be
running
around
everywhere.
I,
don't
know
what
they
need
to
do.
Sure.
G
German
I,
don't
have
a
question.
I
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
believe
this
is
endless
possibilities
for
this
County
I
think
a
lot
of
people
will
be
coming
down
just
what
I've
heard
today
and
once
it
gets
out,
more
people
are
going
to
be
involved
in
this
agro-tourism
I.
Think
it's
a
wonderful
idea
of
it.
Thank.

Need
a

approve
this
resolution.
Mr.
leer.
Second,
mr.
featherly,
any
questions
about
the
inner
front
of
barring
resolution.
Tolls
are
in
your
packet
summer
card,
he's
waiting
in
the
wings
to
answer
any
deep
probing
questions.
I
just
want
to
you
know
note
it
continually
goes
down.
We
keep
borrowing
less
from
ourselves.
If
you
will
the
one
aberration
was.
A
It
appears
that
at
2017
we
have
borrowed
more,
but
that
actually
is
because
the
the
snapshot
on
the
30th
of
the
month
was
that
a
couple
days
later,
we
got
our
tax
disbursement
from
the
treasurer.
So
in
actuality
we
really
borrowed
about
$900,000
less
that
that
number,
so
it
has
been
on
a
downward
trend.

and
that
is
a
county

Member
I
have
had
no
one
expressed
interest
to
this
point.
A
I
If
parallel
when
is
parallel
with
the
autogenous
Tilly
and
it's
already
been
said
and
passed
means
that
he
stole
a
book
I
think
we
need
to
be
cautious
with
our
words,
if
you
don't
want
that
to
shadow
this
particular
board,
then,
as
a
leader
of
this
board
and
as
leaders
in
this
room,
we
have
to
make
sure
that
that
is
not
done.
Everyone
is
a
professional,
whether
I
agree
with
you
or
not.
I
I
So
we
have
to
be
careful.
What
we
say,
I
don't
agree
with
everything
that
people
say,
but
if
I
don't
we
just
agreed
not
to
agree
but
I'm
not
going
to
bring
inferences
from
outside
to
basically
paint
some
picture.
He
took
exception
to
it.
I
would
anyone
if
I'd
have
made
these
comments
to?
You
would
have
taken
exception
to
because
of
the
way
it
was
presented
and
what
I'm
saying
is
we
need
to
stay,
keep
it
professional,
because
you
have
to
understand
the
way
you
perceive
it
and
the
way
others
perceive.
