Description
Executive Committee Meeting 8/22/2017 9:00 AM
A
B
A
A
Those
opposed
we're
gonna
skip
legislative
today,
mr
lear
had
something
that
pulled
him
away
out
of
town,
so
we'll
circle
back
on
that
there
wasn't
a
lot
that
was
extremely
pressing,
but
we'll
get
we'll
get
catch
up
on
that
at
the
next
executive
meeting
and
if
he's
back
tomorrow
for
some
reason,
then
we
might
catch
up
in
finance
in
case
he
has
something
to
let
us
know
no
appointments
under
information
services.
Mr
duvall,
you
have
anything
today
sure.
D
I
really
needed
a
meeting
here,
so
I
waited
for
mine
to
see
we
took
the
overall
volumes
up
and
then
we
tried
to
be
more
specific
for
different
microphones,
which
you
really
can't
tell
if
different
people
sit
at
a
different
microphone
and
if
you
speak
at
a
different
level,
then
that
sounds
off,
but
basically
I
wanted
to
hear.
Can
the
grouping
I
was
concerned
with
this
back
there?
Can
you
hear
through
that
speaker.
D
E
F
D
Part
of
that
was
probably
us.
I
I
thought
that
we
to
adjust
the
video.
We
took
all
the
sound
levels
because
the
video
was
we
took
it
all
down.
Well,
we
didn't
realize
we
probably
took
it
down
so
far
that
we
weren't
sending
enough
power
to
the
speakers,
so
I
jumped
it
all
up.
So
you
know,
though,
in
your
full
board
meetings
when
you
tend
to
have
a
lot
of
microphones
open,
you
may
start
getting
that
feedback,
which
is
what
first
first
made
us
take
it
all
down.
D
So
if
I'm
not
hearing
you
hear
that
there's
some
adjustments
that
may
have
to
happen
or
when
that
feedback
goes
off,
I'm
sure
you've
been
in
the
meeting.
It's
you
can't
have
the
meeting.
It
goes
crazy.
You
know
at
that
point.
So
that's
all
really
I
wanted
to
do
is
find
out.
Are
these
sound
levels
acceptable
to
you?
Can
you
hear
from
them.
F
G
Good
morning,
everyone
I'll
try
not
to
talk
too
loud,
then
it
looks
like
a
lot
on
my
agenda,
but
really
I
think
most
of
it
is
short
and
sweet.
It's
just
some
updates
of
things
that
we've
been
working
on.
I
think
I
had
talked
about
the
first
one
before
the
epa
cleanup
in
pembroke
township
just
wanted
to
give
you
an
update
on
that
I've
been
receiving.
G
I
think
it's
about
twice
a
month,
I'm
getting
reports
from
the
epa
in
regards
to
their
status,
and
I
forward
those
to
mr
wheeler
so
that
he
can
have
those
too,
and
I
went
out
to
the
site
yesterday
just
to
confirm.
You
know
this
latest
report
that
I
got
towards
the
end
of
about
two
weeks
ago
for
the
end
of
july
activities,
but
they
have
pretty
much
finished
their
work
out
there.
G
It
didn't
come
through
the
the
health
department
or
the
county
that
I'm
aware
of
at
the
time
it
was
handled
by
the
epa
in
relation
to
when
they
inspected
it
and
the
type
of
contamination
that
they
found
and
then
it
qualified
for
an
epa
cleanup
site.
So
they
took
care
of
this
and
then
eventually
had
made
contact
with
some
officials
here
locally
to.
G
Let
us
be
aware
of
the
activities
that
were
going
on
out
in
that
area,
so
no
one
would
be
caught
unaware
or
think
that
something
suspicious
was
going
on
when
it's
actually
quite
the
opposite.
So
it's
the
site
of
the
location
for
the
dumping
that
had
occurred
and
the
fire
was
at
17,
000,
east
road
and
and
3
000,
south
road,
so
towards
the
indiana
border.
But
on
our
side
in
pembroke
township,
it's
a
wooded
area.
G
It
appears
that
there
used
to
be
some
old
county
road
that
maybe
had
gone
in
through
there
at
some
point.
But
many
years
ago
has
not
been
used
and
has
been
overgrown
and
they
didn't
even
know.
There
was
a
road
back
in
there,
but
that's
how
they
discovered
some
of
the
the
material
that
was
cleaned
up
so,
as
of
today,
they've
completely
removed
all
the
contaminated
soil.
They've
replaced
it
and
backfilled
it
with
the
new
clean
fill.
So
that's
done.
G
G
G
The
backfill
of
the
new
soil
was
done,
they've
removed
the
gravel
roads,
they
put
a
fence
around
that
property
to
hopefully
eliminate
at
least
at
this
location.
You
know
future
dumpings
of
any
kind
and
then
they've
demobilized,
all
their
equipment
personnel,
so
they're
gone
they're
off
the
site.
The
only
thing
left
for
them
to
do
is
they're
going
to
come
back
later
in
the
fall
and
seed,
the
property
with
the
natural
grasses
and
or
plant
material.
G
A
The
one
thing
I'd
want
to
mention
on
this
is
there
were
some
assertions
that
this
was
the
county's
property
it's
held
by
the
county
trustee,
which
is
a
the
representative
of
all
of
the
taxing
districts.
So
it
is
not
county
property.
There
was
that
was
out
there
in
a
certain
publication,
and
that
is
not
the
case,
so
it
it's
it's
unfortunate.
This
happened
and
it's
not
something
that
we
look
the
other
way
about.
A
G
Thank
you.
So
that's
it
for
that.
If
nobody
has
any
questions
on
that,
then
I'll
move
down
on
number
two
I
had
listed
the
west
nile
virus
update
this
isn't
so
much
an
update
on
on
the
individual
that
the
human
case
that
we
have.
But
it's
an
update
that
today
we
don't
have
any
additional
new
human
cases,
which
is
is
a
good
thing.
There
appears
to
have
been
great
demand
for
education,
so
our
website
and
and
the
locations
that
we
put
out
some
information.
G
The
newspaper
articles
have
been
drawing
great
public
interest,
so
I
think
people
are
aware
of
it
now,
especially
if
they
were
friends
or
or
knew
who
this
individual
was
so
they're
taking
it
seriously
as
they
should
and-
and
we
want
to
get
that
education
out.
So
that's
a
good
thing
and
then
we're
continuing
through
the
health
department,
the
environmental
health
department
division.
You
know
to
monitor
the
four
locations
that
we
do.
G
G
You
won't
see
much
or
any
more
activity
after
that,
because
it's
just
gonna
be
too
cold
for
them,
and
but
it
seems
later
in
last
year.
I
think
that
went
to
early
november
before
we
actually
got
that
first
frost,
so
you
can
still
get
mosquito
activity.
You
know
that
late,
and
this
is
the
time
of
the
year
I
was
just
talking
with
kevin.
G
You
know
that
we
get
the
longer
hotter
drier
spells.
You
know
the
rain
is
a
little
more
infrequent
and
that's
that's
conducive
than
to
this
west
nile
mosquito.
So
this
is
where
we'll
start
to
see
statewide,
you
know
more
positive
hits
for
mosquito
pools
or
or
birds
that
are
being
submitted,
are
testing
positive
and
then
maybe
more
human
cases
being
diagnosed,
not
necessarily
here,
but
it
seems
to
be
in
our
area.
The
first
human
case
was
will
county
and
then
right
on
the
heels
of
that
was
was
kankakee's
case.
G
Any
questions
on
that
all
right,
great
moving
along
so
then
to
follow
up
with
west
nile
virus
shortly
after
our
press
release
for
that
we
were
notified
that
we
had
had
four
bats.
Kankakee
county
have
had
four
bats,
that
we
have
had
test
positive
for
rabies
within
the
past
two
months
so
july
and
august
or
maybe
late
june
into
about
now.
G
Last
year,
I
think
in
kankakee
county
we
had
two,
and
then
there
were
a
total
of
63
bats
for
the
state.
So
four
is,
is
a
number
so
again
like
west
nile
virus.
We
know
it's
here
in
the
community.
Rabies
is
present
in
the
community,
but
this
just
confirms
that
and
then
we
sent
out
a
press
release,
basically
just
to
inform
people.
G
If
you
have
bats
in
the
house,
don't
try
to
you
know,
be
take
caution
in
trying
to
catch
them.
They
can
be
caught
captured
if
and
even
if
they're
accidentally
killed
and
as
long
as
the
brains
are
are
not
damaged.
Animal
control
can
collect
those
send
those
off
and
they
can
be
tested
for
the
rabies,
which
I
don't
have
the
information
in
regards
to
these
four
cases.
G
So
you
do
need
to
be
careful
and
if,
if
a
bat
is
found
in
a
bedroom,
for
example
in
the
morning
that
somebody
slept
in
then
that
individual
you
know
one,
you
want
to
try
to
get
that
that
bat
so
that
it
can
be
tested,
but
two
because
their
teeth
are
so
small.
If,
if
there
was
to
have
been
a
potential
exposure
through
a
bite,
it's
possible
that
you
know
you
or
the
the
individual
in
that
room,
wouldn't
even
know
it.
G
It's
very
you
know
almost
like
a
needle
type
thing,
so
you
might
not
feel
it,
and
so,
if
there's
any
kind
of
a
chance
that
there
was
an
exposure,
then
you
know
you
contact
the
health
department
and
we
can
go
through
the
process
of
determining
whether
or
not
you
would
need
to
have
vaccinations
for
that
and
they've
come
a
long
way
with
the
vaccinations.
But
it's
still
probably
not
something
that
you
would
want
to
have
to
go
through
the
situation.
G
G
I
can't
say
that
I
remember
seeing
this
in
in
the
paper,
but
it
that
doesn't
mean
it
wasn't
sometimes
they'll
take
our
articles
and
and
condense
them
not
necessarily
provide
all
the
information
that
we
want.
The
radio
stations
seem
to
be
pretty
good
about
getting
that
information
out
there,
and
then
we
put
it
on
our
website,
so
it's
definitely
posted
on
our
website
and
our
facebook
page.
G
So
well
I
I
appreciate
that
and
that's
part
of
what
we
want
to
try
to
do
maybe
is
is
at
a
meeting
like
this.
Maybe
just
be
a
little
more.
If
we
have
press
releases,
it's
something
that
we
started
to
do
internally.
Some
of
the
staff
were
like
you
know,
I
didn't
know
you
sent
that
press
release
out
so
we're
starting
to
send
them
anything.
We
send
out
so
they're
aware
of
it.
I
could
potentially
send
it
here
if
you
wish.
A
A
G
It
does
seem
to
be
you
know.
The
sign
of
the
times
is
more
the
social
media
aspect
of
where
you're
trying
to
get
your
news,
as
opposed
to
you
know,
waiting
for
the
paper
to
come.
Not
you
know,
so
I
know
there's
less
and
less
people
getting
the
paper,
then
you've
got
the
herald
versus
the
journal
and
some
people
just
do
one
or
the
other,
and
and
so
it's
you
know,
we
know
we're
not
reaching
everybody
just
by
sending
out
to
them.
G
That's
why
we
do
the
radio
stations
and,
and
now
that
we
do
have
facebook
and
and
a
lot
of
these
other
organizations
that,
if
you
can
like
them,
how
that
all
works.
You
know
you
just
start
to
spread
it
out
and
spread
it
out
and
someone
catches
it
and
shares
it
with
a
friend
who
knew
somebody
who
knew
somebody
type
thing.
G
If
they
were
interested,
then
we
could
get
them
signed
up
for
that.
So
the
first
one
we
saw
approximately
20
people
didn't
go
as
well
as
we
wanted.
But
again
the
the
notices
were
short
in
terms
of
that.
So
we
understood
that,
but
the
second
one
we
had
approximately
110
people
who
had
signed
up.
So
we
had
a
a
a
great
turnout
that
day
and
the
air
conditioner
went
out
in
the
lobby
where
everyone
was
waiting
and
a
toilet
overflowed,
and
so
this
and
I
was
out
of
the
office
at
a
meeting
in
moments.
G
G
We
had
to
bring
out
extra
chairs
and
things
like
that,
but
it
went
really
well
and
I
just
wanted
to
commend
our
board
of
health
president,
dr
acantillo
volunteered
his
time
didn't
charge
the
health
department
for
his
his
normal
hourly
rate,
but
he
came
on
both
those
days
and
and
served
all
those
clients.
You
know
free
of
charge
for
us,
so
we
we
greatly
appreciate
that
and
and
we've
got
a
certificate
for
him.
G
He
wasn't
at
the
last
meeting,
but
we're
going
to
present
that
with
him
thanking
him
for
his
his
time
and
and
helping
us
do
that,
and
then
we
learned,
you
know
some
things
that
we'll
try
to
do.
You
know
better
for
for
next
year
when
we
offer
this
again,
but
that
was
just
for
information
to
let
you
know
along
similar
lines,
we
held
a
wic
farmers
market
a
week
ago
for
our
women,
infants
and
children.
G
That's
what
the
wic
stands
for
women,
infants
and
children
program,
they
receive
coupons,
they
come
in
and
they
receive
some
services
and
they
get
coupons
for
food
and
and
so
similar
to
the
kankakee
farmers
market,
where
they
can
utilize.
These
coupons.
Also,
we
hosted
a
a
mini
one
at
our
health
department.
G
We
had
two
local
farmers
come
in
and
they
provided
a
a
large
amount
of
produce,
and
so
once
the
clients
came
in
received
their
services
got
their
coupons.
They
were
able
to
go
outside
and
purchase
a
number
of
these
supplies
and
kind
of
get
educated
by
our
nutritionists
on
some
of
the
things
that
they
they
could
be
buying
should
be
buying
and
how
to
prepare
them.
Things
like
that
in
terms
of
their
their
diet
and
nutrition
to
help
them.
G
That's
part
of
the
requirements
of
that
grant
and
there's
approximately
150
individuals
that
were
able
to
utilize
that
that
service,
and
actually,
if
you'd,
have
driven
by
and
and
pulled
into
the
parking
lot
next
year.
You
know
feel
free,
you
you
don't
have
to
have
the
coupon,
you
could
have
paid
cash
to
those
farmers
and
I'm
sure
they
would
have
taken
that
and
you
could
have
bought.
You
know
just
like
a
roadside
stand.
You
could
have
purchased
yourself
also.
So
any
questions
on
that.
G
Some
of
the
requirements
through
that
grant
are
that
we're
gonna
be
performing
three
to
four
forums
to
discuss
the
opioid
issue
in
in
kankakee
county,
and
you
know
what
we're
doing
about
it
and
the
signs
and
symptoms
and
and
treatment,
recovery,
and
things
like
that.
The
first
one
that
we're
having
so
this
is
an
invitation.
We've
scheduled
this
for
september
25th,
it's
at
onu
and
I
might
butcher
this
name.
G
It's
whisner,
weisner,
wisner
wisner,
that's
the
location
where
it
will
be
in
nursing
building
at
thank
you
and
it
it's
6
p.m.
It'll
be
approximately
an
hour.
We're
gonna
we're
planning
on
having
at
each
of
these
six
to
seven
speakers
who
will
answer.
Questions
in
you
know
along
the
topic
of
of
the
opioid
issue
and
and
we've
got
a
long
list
of
individuals
that
we'd
like
to
have
talk,
but
we
don't
want
to
have
them
all
talk
at
the
first
one.
G
G
C
G
C
I
G
That's
a
great
idea.
I
appreciate
you
saying
that
we
are
doing
that.
There
will
be
formal
invitations.
I
think
coming
out,
they're
being
prepared
just
as
we
go
out
and
about
since
I
wouldn't
see
you
till
next
month,
potentially
in
relation
to
this,
it's
sort
of
a
save
the
date
kind
of
a
notice
for
you
just
getting
it
out
there
that
that's
that's
coming.
G
A
J
Morning,
as
you
see
or
don't
say
you
don't
have
a
you,
don't
have
a
report
from
our
commission
as
there's
been
talks
of
of
consolidating
the
county
board.
There's
talks
of
doing
that
through
the
veterans
assistance
commission,
the
statute
states
that
there
it
has
to
be
one
delegate
and
one
alternate
from
each
charter:
ship
post,
that's
vfw
marine
corps
league
american
legion,
those
things
one
in
one
well
for
some
reason
when
the
vac
was
set
up
years
ago,
someone
thought
it
would
be
great
to
have
two
delegates
and
two
alternates.
J
So
we
have
twice
as
many
than
the
statute
allows.
So
our
board
is
even
larger
than
the
county
board.
I
have
34
board
members,
and
so,
as
you
can
imagine,
that's
why
we
don't
have
reports,
because
I
don't
know
if
the
weather
was
awesome
last
month
or
what?
But
we
didn't
have
a
quorum
to
even
have
the
meeting.
So
we're
working
on
that
and
that's
one
thing
that
I've
tried
to
talk.
J
My
commission
into
is
go
roll
back
to
what
the
statute
says
and
if
we
lower
the
number,
maybe
we
have
that
lower
number
is
more
concentrated
of
those
who
are
committing
to
showing
up
month
to
month.
So
since
I
don't
have
a
report,
the
one
thing
I
can
report
since
I
have
it
in
front
of
me-
is
our
veterans.
Court
certification.
J
You've
heard
me
talk
about
that
month
in
and
month
out
till
it
was
finished
and
we
got
the
letter
last
week
from
the
aoic
and
since
I
don't
believe
you
guys
have
a
copy
I'll,
just
read
it.
If
I
could
alright,
dear
chief
judge
kramer,
I'm
pleased
to
inform
you
that
the
supreme
court
has
reviewed
and
approved
for
certification,
the
kinky
count
county
veterans,
treatment,
court,
congratulations
to
you
and
your
problem-solving
court
team
members
certification
is
valid
for
three
years.
J
On
behalf
of
the
court,
I
commend
kinky
county
for
implementing
evidence-based
practices
proven
to
provide
participants
with
necessary
treatment,
community
interventions
to
reduce
the
risk
of
recidivism
recidivism,
while
enhancing
public
safety.
Again,
congratulations
on
the
street
achievement.
So
again,
this
holds
us
for
three
years.
They
don't
know
what
the
review
process
is
gonna,
be
in
three
years,
but
this
this
sets
a
standard
for
us,
because
we
are
the
first
veterans
court
in
illinois
to
be
certified.
J
So
this
is
kind
of
a
proud
moment
for
us,
because
you
know
there's
other
courts
that
have
been
going
longer
and
are
larger
and
they
still
haven't
even
had
had
the
interview
done.
So
this
is
pretty
pretty
huge
for
us
to
to
accomplish,
so
I
just
wanted
to
let
you
guys
know
since
I've
been
keeping
you
updated
every
month
of
the
process
and
what
we
were
waiting
for
and
now
that
it
came
through.
I
just
wanted
to
get
that
out
there
so
well.
A
I'm
gonna
put
first
of
all,
thank
you
good
job,
good
work.
I
think
this
is
this
being
speaking
of
feedback,
I
think
we're
getting
that
first
initial
taste
of
feedback
here,
this
being
the
first
official
certification
for
a
veterans
court.
I
think
that's
worthy
of
something
consideration
for
the
full
board
for
proclamation.
A
I
think
we
should
make
sure
that
that
we,
the
world,
knows
that
we're
very
proud
of
what
what
has
gone
on
here.
So
I'd
entertain
a
motion
to
have
that
proclamation.
Put
together,
motion
by
everybody.
Can
I
do
that?
No,
no,
I
think
I'll
I'll
start
with
mr
mcconnell,
a
second
by
mr
siroi,
because
I
know
there's
somebody
in
this
room
that
goes
to
a
lot
of
those.
So,
okay,
I
guess
that's
it's
a
voice
vote
all
those
in
favor.
H
A
A
Know,
step
on
the
moment,
as
I
say,
yeah.
No,
I
think
that's
a
good!
That's
a
good
way
to
we've
already
got
language
going.
I
figured
this
would
happen.
You'd
make
that
motion,
so
we're
going
to
do
some
whereases
and
wherefores
and
you're
two
four
withs
and
whatever
the
lawyers
say
so
any
other
questions.
A
Personal
hr
issues-
lynn,
mackin,
she's
still
off
today,
right,
that's
what
I
thought:
administrative
issues,
resignations,
appointments
and
reappointments.
I
have
a
resignation
of
david
snyder
from
the
kenky
township
fire
protection
district,
and
I
have
the
appointment
of
case
irena
c
jones
dds
to
the
kanke
county
board
of
health.
A
A
A
The
the
person
chose
not
to
continue.
So
you
know
anybody
who
wants
to
join
the
board
of
health.
Please
send
them,
send
them
our
way.
The
applications
are
by
the
way
online.
So
they
can
anybody
in
the
public
that
happens
to
be
watching
this.
They
can
fill
out
the
application
and
send
it
in
four
openings
on
the
kinky
county
regional
planning,
commission,
one
opening
on
the
kankakee
river
conservancy
district
board.
I
will
mention
that
position
has
to
be
liv
has
to
live
within
the
conservancy
district.
A
I
had
an
applicant
yesterday
come
in
that
was
from
bourbon
a
so
while
I
appreciate
people
that
want
to
serve,
they
have
to
live
within
the
district
full-time,
there's
those
that
if
they're
they
have
cabins
in
the
district
and
that
isn't
you
can't
do
that
either.
So
it's
very
specific
in
the
statute,
mr
siroi.
K
A
I
A
I
I
E
A
A
A
A
A
A
It's
still
yeah
yeah,
all
righty
opioid
lawsuit.
I'd
mentioned
this
in
criminal
justice.
I
was
approached
by
chairman
franks,
actually
from
mckendree
county's
board,
and
a
lot
of
the
counties
in
illinois
are
getting
together
on
a
opioid
lawsuit
to
sue
the
pharmaceutical
industries.
Specifically,
the
opioid
manufacturers
on
their
predatory
practices
perceive
predatory
practices
and
the
first
part
of
it
was
a
a
fact-finding
portion.
A
A
So
I
signed
us
up
for
the
first
part
of
this
was
to
go
forward
with
looking
into
the
possibility
of
doing
this,
the
firms
out
of
new
york
city,
and
then
they
have
an
office
in
southern
illinois,
they're
a
big
nationwide
firm.
So
when
that
solution
or
that
that
situation
comes
to
a
head
and
they
either
proceed
or
not
proceed
I'll
report
back
to
the
board
on
exactly
what's
going
on.
A
You
know,
committing
to
some
fine
print
that
I
didn't
really
pay
attention
to,
but
we
all
know
the
massive
cost,
not
only
in
human
life,
but
in
ex
you
know,
time
and
treasure
that
the
county
spends
on
this
problem,
and
some
of
this
is
resulting
from
people
that
became
addicted
after
a
surgery
and
then
they
find
it's
cheaper
to
go
the
heroin
route
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
they're
in
the
ground.
And
it's
not
just
it's,
not
kids,
it's
not
it's.
It's
mostly.
A
It
is
kids,
but
it's
a
lot
of
older
adults
in
their
40s
and
50s
that
are
becoming
prey
to
this,
and
so
it's
destroying
not
only
their
lives
but
their
families
lives.
So
it
seems
petty,
but
it's
also
really
destroying
our
budgets
here
with
all
the
autopsies
and
the
police
work
that
we
have
to
do
with
it
and
the
narcan
that
everybody's
carrying
we
got
a
grant
for
some
of
it.
A
So
this
is
an
attempt
for
us
not
only
to
hold
their
feet
to
the
fire
on
the
practices
that
they
they
that
I
feel
personally
that
I'm
not
making
a
statement
for
the
board.
Personally,
I
feel
we're
very
predatory,
incentivizing
doctors
to
write
more
of
those
prescriptions
and
things
like
that
without
any
of
the
downstream
consequences.
A
E
A
A
C
I
have
matter
of
fact:
there
was
a
lawsuit
just
settled.
I
forgot
out
east
somewhere,
where
the
opioid
makers
settled
with
across
state
same
idea,
but
in
the
pharmaceutical
world.
What
has
happened
in
the
past
pharmaceutical
companies
would
give
incentives
to
physicians
to
prescribe
painkillers
like
oxycontin
I'll
use
that
as
an
example,
so
the
reps
or
whoever
the
companies
incentivize
the
physicians.
C
What
happens?
Is
these
people
get
hooked
on
these
painkillers,
and
I
think
mr
gestner
said
in
our
one
of
our
criminal
justice,
meaning
the
average
age
of
an
overdose
in
king
key
counties
in
their
40s,
and
it's
not
teenagers
or
20
year
old.
These
are
older
working
adults
who
may
have
had
back
surgery,
knee
surgery,
get
prescribed
and
physicians
that'll
over
prescribe
and
just
and
that's
what
it
is.
It's
just
sort
of
hold
the
physician's
feet
to
the
fire
and
the
maker's
feet
to
the
fire.
Yeah.
A
So
that's
more
of
a
heads
up,
you
know
letting
all
the
committees
know
at
some
point.
It
may
come
back
as
hey.
This
has
become
a
thing
or
it's
become
a
settlement
or
whatever.
So
any
questions
beyond
that
all
right.
Moving
on
old
business,
the
river
valley,
juvenile
detention,
center
renegotiation
we
at
the
end
of
december
or
excuse
me
at
the
end
of
november,
was
the
expiration
of
our
agreement.
A
If
you
will
the
financial
portion
of
the
river
valley,
juvenile
detention
center
agreement,
we
had
with
will
county
us
and
the
will
county
pbc,
we
still
have
a
lease
if
you
will,
but
there's
no
financial
portion
of
that
lease
at
all.
So
we've
been
kind
of
trying
to
you.
May
you
remember
the
situation
where
the
bond
payment
and
they
took
the
bond
payment
out
of
our
maintenance
fund?
We
didn't
know
that
we
didn't
actually
make
it.
We
we
thought
it
was
settled.
A
A
There's
money
in
arrears
that
we
owe
for
last
year
and
I'm
sure
there's
there's
something
that
we
need
to
agree
to
for
this
year.
We
still
have
550
000,
roughly
up
in
that
maintenance
fund
up
there,
and
we
have
no
agreement
for
going
really
forward
beyond
that.
We
have
an
agreement.
I
don't
know
if
that
makes
sense,
there's
no
financial
side
of
this.
A
So
I've
been
talking
to
the
will
county
executive's
office
for
about
you
know
since
really
january
about
this,
and
the
will
county
board
is
now
kind
of
involved,
wondering
what's
going
on
and
you
know,
there's
you
know
the
pbc
up
there.
Their
public
building
commission
is
is
this
is
their
only
piece
of
business
that
they
handle
anymore?
They
don't
do
anything
else,
but
this
and
there's
really
not
much.
This
left
as
far
as
their
involvement,
so
we've
really
got
a
lot
of
moving
pieces.
A
So
I'm
waiting
on
a
confirmation
on
a
date
but
I'll
be
going
up
there
with
mr
rowe
and
we're
going
to
start
working
through
the
legalities
of
what
is
this
arrangement
going
to
be
going
forward?
I
can
tell
you
that,
and
it's
my
intent,
that
we
will
still
be
a
partner
in
this
facility.
We've
got
a
lot
of
sunk
cost
into
that
infrastructure
up
there.
You
know
we
paid
for
basically
18
of
that
building.
A
If
you
look
at
it
over
the
long
run,
we
are
on
the
hook
for
certain
amounts
of
of
the
cost
for
maintenance,
which
it
should
be
up
to
repair.
They
just
put
a
lot
of
money
in
roofs
and
parking,
lots
and
key
card
systems,
so
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
ongoing
major
infrastructure
costs,
but
we
do
have
to
pay
for
it,
and
I
have
to
balance
that
with
you
know
the
the
court's
tendency
to
release
juveniles
now,
there's
really
only
violent
juveniles
that
are
going
into
this
facility.
A
We
were
at
around
eight
averaged
per
month.
You
know
in
there
if
you're
talking
about
detention
days,
there's
probably
on
the
average
of
eight
individuals
in
there
will
county
is
much
larger,
but
they
may
be
double
that.
So
we
have
to
be
smart
about
this,
but
we
also
have
to
know
that
it's
a
whole
different
set
of
rules
for
handling
juveniles,
and
this
tie
this
facility
is
absolutely
fantastic.
It
has
schools
in
it.
You
know
it's
it's.
A
It's
very
well
run,
there's
courtrooms
in
there
for
the
will
county
folks.
Unfortunately,
ours
we
have
to
take
from
here,
drive
up
there
and
bring
back
and
with
arraignments
there's
a
lot
of
travel
back
and
forth,
but
we
couldn't
do
that
here.
Most
of
the
the
board
members
have
been
here
for
a
while
know
that
we
don't
have
the
the
facilities
or
the
services
to
be
able
to
handle
that
it
would
be
much
more
expensive
for
us
to
do
that
here.
A
You
know
a
five
or
ten
year
agreement,
because,
frankly,
we
were
in
some
tough
financial
times.
We
need
to
see
how
a
lot
of
this
stuff
shakes
out
with
the
way
the
courts
are
handling
juveniles.
I
don't
see
it
going
back
the
other
way.
I
think
you'll
get
more
recognizance
type
bond
issues,
especially
with
the
new
state
law,
and
if
it's
a
non-violent
crime,
then
it's
a
recognizance
bond.
You
know
that
new
thing
that
we're
dealing
with
so
unless
there's
any
other
questions
on
that
I'll
move
on
to
the
next
item.
L
To
the
high
expense
of
incarcerating
or
detaining
a
juvenile,
I
think
back
when
I
was
on
the
board
in
90,
it
was
like
it
got
up
to
like
90
000
in
a
month
for
one
juvenile
because
of
the
components
of
education
and
everything
else
that
had
to
be
resolved.
In
that
my
only
suggestion
is,
if
we
don't
utilize
those
beds,
do
we
benefit
by
leasing
them
out
to
others
or
whatever?
L
E
Yeah,
I
just
add
on
to
what
bob
said
back,
I'm
sure
it
was
in
the
90s.
The
laws
were
different
and
they
were
detaining
a
lot
more
of
the
juveniles
and
we
were
running
into
a
problem
where
we
were
running
them
all
over
the
state
trying
to
find
beds
for
them,
because
we
couldn't
do
it
here
because
of
the
segregation
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
E
A
A
A
Now
the
the
one
that
was
in
your
packet
is
the
incorrect
version.
There's
the
correct
version
was
set
on
on
top
of
your
table.
Basically,
this
came
out
of
a
call
about
per
diem
reimbursements.
We
had
a
county
employee
that
really
they
never
had
to
produce
receipts
for
their
per
diem.
They
just
said
I
was
out
of
town.
I
need
my
per
diem
and
a
lot
of
times
that
I
mean
in
years
past.
That
was
just
okay.
We
got
the
per
diem.
A
Well,
our
policy
didn't
say
that
it
said
you
needed
to
have
receipts
so
and
the
the
new
travel
policy
we
adopted
in
january
kind
of
dovetailed
into
that,
and
so
we
at
that
point
I
realized.
Well,
we
updated
a
new
policy
in
january
this
committee
did
and
the
full
board,
but
we
never
updated
the
employee
handbook.
A
So
I
had
I
sat
with
the
state's
attorney
upstairs
and
then
I
brought
in
lynn
after
I
explained
what
we
needed
to
do,
and
then
lynn
and
the
state's
attorney's
office
worked
out
the
detail
to
this
new
policy
page.
So
really
it's
really
pretty
self-explanatory.
All
bills
must
be
approved
by
the
department
head.
You
know,
but
we
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
everything
was
tied
together
and
clear
for
the
department.
A
L
L
That
means
no
risk
caution
or
you
know
something
that's
way
out
there,
but
something
within
reasons
comfortable.
It
is
if
it's
in
that
particular
area
and
the
you
know,
and
you
use
it
like
if
you
was
at
the
abraham,
lincoln
or
if
you
was
at
a
hilton,
but
none
of
nothing
is
real
elaborate
unless
it's
the
only
thing
or
the
only
hotel,
that's
there
where
the
convention
would
be.
But
chair
on
the
side
of
caution,
I
would
just
say.
I
A
I
absolutely
agree
it,
but
I
will
say
that
I
can't
repeat
it
verbatim,
but
that
is
that
part
is
in
the
travel
policy.
This
is
on
the
expense
reimbursement
side
of
it
what
you
have
to
produce
in
order
to
get
reimbursed.
So
we
did
address
that
in
the
travel
policy.
You
know
remember
the
least
expensive
mode
of
transportation,
because
we
had
an
employee
that
was
driving
their
car
out
to
virginia.
Remember
that
and
it
was.
K
A
Gallery
is
going
to
get
us
in
trouble
here,
but
but
what
I
can
do
is
I'll
make
sure
that
I
get
a
copy
that
to
you
and
if
it's
not
we'll
bring
it
back.
Is
that
fair
enough,
because
this
part
is
the
documentation?
The
actual
policy
on
where
people
can
stay
is
a
separate
policy.
Oh
okay.
Does
that
make
sense
all
right,
so
we'll
check
it
out.
Let
me
write
myself
a
note.
A
A
A
If
the
third
person
hears
it,
no
we've
got,
we've
got
issues
there.
So
I
was
going
to
ask
the
this
committee:
can
we
up
this
to
five
and
and
bring
two
more
people
on
to
this?
Because
it's
a
non-paid
position?
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
enough
people
to
hear
these
cases.
Heaven
forbid
we
ever
need
to,
but,
as
we
put
it
together,
also
to
get
more
people
involved
in
putting
together
the
ethics
commission
and
their
how
they're
going
to
go
about
their
business
and
things
like
that.
A
B
A
A
So
we
have
a
motion,
a
second
all,
those
in
favor,
those
opposed
all
righty.
Last
thing:
it's
not
on
the
agenda.
I
just
want
to
give
a
mention
here,
because
I
was
approached
by
a
board
member
about
this
hiring
spree
that
I'm
going
through
up
in
administration
hiring
spree.
We
have
a
position
posted.
The
reason
we
do
is
is
because
the
attorney
general's
office
says
by
the
end
of
the
month.
I
have
to
appoint
an
ada
coordinator
and
that
doesn't
exist
right
now
within
the
county.
A
All
municipal
units
over
50
employees
have
to
have
an
ada
coordinator.
That's
something
we've
drug
our
feet
on,
however
long
this
has
been
that's
one
of
the
first
things
they
said
is
we
need
an
ada
coordinator
as
I
look
back
through
all
the
the
information,
and
so
we
can't
do
that
anymore,
and
it
was
date
certain
by
the
end
of
this
month,
which
is
in
like
three
days
now.
I
could.
I
could
appoint
an
individual
in
in
the
office
to
be
the
ada
coordinator.
Problem
is
if
they
go.
Okay.
A
Here's
your
ada
coordinator,
here's
the
stack
of
stuff
that
we
need
done.
I
don't
have
the
man
hours
to
do
that,
and
so
it's
a
very
specialized
skill
set.
So
if
I
that
is
not
a
part-time
position,
but
if
you're
going
to
hire
a
part-time
or
a
full-time
ada
coordinator,
there
won't
be
enough
work
down
the
road
for
this
person
to
to
do
it.
So
we're
going
to
have
to
train
somebody
to
take
this
position.
So
what
I
did
was
I
reached
out.
A
I
looked
at
our
operations
and
that
all
the
things
that
we
need
to
do
the
inefficiencies
or
the
efficiencies
we
could
be
gained
with
other
duties.
This
person
could
be
doing
to
justify
a
full-time
position,
and
I
also
once
I
figured
out
okay.
Well,
we
have
some
issues
with
workforce
boards,
since
we
lost
a
very
long-term
employee
that
handled
everything
that
had
been
doing
it
for
12
years.
I
believe
the
claims
part
of
that
is
something
that
we
could
do
up
in
our
office
as
part
of
that
duty.
A
So
that
means
I
can
get
a
reimbursement
from
workforce
board
for
those
claims
duties
to
pay
for
a
portion
of
that
salary,
so
it
yeah.
So
I
basically
figured
out
a
way
to
cover
off
a
lot
of
the
salary
with
or
the
half
that
wasn't
for
ada
to
make
a
full-time
position
just
for
recruitment
purposes.
You're
not
gonna,
be
able
to
find
an
ada
person.
That's
gonna
work
part-time
because
that's
a
highly
specialized
skill
set,
so
I
think
we
have
at
least
a
winning
budgetarily
winning
situation
without
just
pulling
in
a
great
big
old
salary.
A
For
somebody
who
may
have
once
we
get
things
fixed,
maybe
hopefully
not
that
much
work
to
do
on
the
ada
side
of
things.
So
that's
more
informational!
Now,
because
I
have,
we
haven't
been
able
to
talk
to
you
directly
because
guess
what
that
letter
showed
up
after
our
last
executive
meeting,
so
I
at
least
wanted
to
get
that
out
to
you.
A
I
have
to
have
this
person
at
least
appointed
by
the
end
of
the
month,
and
I've
told
lynn
mackin
that
you're
probably
going
to
be
appointed
for
about
a
week
until
we
hire
somebody.
The
job
has
been
posted
already.
So
if
I
would
have
got
serious
pushback
from
the
board-
and
you
said
no-
we
don't
want
to
do
this
and
you
can
that's
your
prerogative
then
I
would
have
had
to
find
somebody
else
to
for
that
position
here.
Mr
burn.
C
As
much
as
you
know,
no
one
wants
to
spend
any
money.
If
we
can't
have,
we
don't
have
to.
We
have
no
choice
but
again.
This
is
another
example
of
an
unfunded
mandate
being
sent
down
from
springfield
onto
counties
and
municipalities
and
I'd
be
curious
to
know
at
some
point
if
there
is
a
way
to
figure
out
how
much
this
count
unfunded
mandates
cost
the
county
each
year.
