Description
Finance Committee Meeting 12/23/2021 9:40am
B
C
A
A
E
News
today,
yeah
the
time
here
to
have
good
news
sales
tax
continues,
it's
positive
climb.
I'm
researching,
I
think,
I'm
getting
close
to
the
answer
to
that.
I
hope
by
the
time
I
find
it.
It
doesn't
change
so
yeah.
That's
extremely
positive
income
tax,
as
you
see,
ended
the
year
731
000
higher
than
fy
20
for
the
fiscal
totals.
E
A
E
A
No
yeah,
if
there
are
no
other
questions
that
I
understand,
there's
no
claims
not
recommended
for
approval,
so
we'd
move
to
monthly
claims.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
monthly
claims?
Mr
featherling,
dr
pro
seconds,
any
questions
on
the
monthly
claims.
Any
discussion:
let's
have
a
roll
call
vote.
Please.
F
G
E
For
the
cash
flow
update,
we
have
not
only
fiscal
year
21,
but
we
open
up
the
projections
for
for
everyone
to
look
at
through
june
of
22..
That
is
usually
the
lowest
point
before
the
property
tax
distribution,
so
the
lowest
point
of
cash.
So
not
a
lot
of
concern
at
this
point
we've.
You
know
estimated
a
number
of
changes
that
we
expect
here
soon
with
that.
E
So
you
know
we
also
have
a
three
payroll
month
in
january,
so
this
is
one
of
the
first
months
that
first
time
showing
this
report
that
that
number
did
not
drop.
You
know
the
june
number
did
not
drop
in
to
below
2
million
or
even
below
1
million,
so
it
kind
of
goes
hand
in
hand
with
the
graph
that
we'll
we'll
look
at
next.
E
A
E
A
E
Change
the
numbers
to
positive,
obviously
we'll
never
get
the
26
million
dollars
of
cash
on
hand,
but
to
get
to
six
or
seven
million
would
be.
Would
we
we
could
then
say
that
we're
in
the
right
neck
of
the
woods.
So
this
is
a
positive
trend,
obviously
from
where
we've
been,
and
it's
certainly
nice
to
for
the
cash
flow,
because
when
these
years
the
deepest
hole
would
happen,
we
would
be
negative.
E
This
this
report
would
show
up
start
to
show
up
negative,
almost
now
december
january
area
and
the
accounts
payable
had
to
be
delayed
and
borrowing
just
to
get
through
may
and
june.
So
it's
nice
to
continue
to
pay
bills
and
have
a
positive
you
know
outlook
as
far
as
cash
flow.
So
you
know,
I
think,
even
though
we're
not
anywhere
near
where
we
absolutely
need
to
be-
and
we
could
say
it's
the
the
proper
size.
I
think
this
is
an
important
milestone
to
stop
and
take.
E
You
know
take
notice
of
so
you
know,
I
think
you
know
congratulations
on
this
milestone
on
chairman
wheeler,
this
finance
committee,
the
board,
all
the
elected
and
appointed
officials,
employees,
because
everybody
felt
everybody
felt
something
going
through
these
last
12
years
that
who
have
been
here,
but
I
also
want
to
specifically
identify
sheriff
downing
his
staff
and
them
keeping
up
with
the
ebbs
and
flows
of
the
bed.
Rental
program
you
know,
are
also
critical
and-
and
it's
been
critical
to
our
recovery
since
2016..
E
E
H
You
know
we
a
few
short
years
ago.
We
were
staring
at
that
number
and
and
we're
out
of
the
hole.
We
just
can't
go
back
there
and
that's
that's
our
mission
as
finance,
as
as
we
see
our
revenues
under
attack
from
the
state,
mainly
the
state
they're
they're,
our
biggest
competitor,
if
you
will,
as
far
as
revenue
goes
right
now,
and
it's
a
shame
that
they're
working
against
us
like
this,
but
we're
dealing
with
it.
H
But
there's
going
to
be
some
hard
work
here
in
a
couple
of
years
that
we're
going
to
have
to
slide
into
as
we
talked
about
the
way
we've
done,
our
our
budgets
and
the
way
we've
done
the
corporate
tort
and
pensions
we're
not
under
funding
our
pensions.
We're
not
dipping
into
that
to
cover
things
off,
but
just
just
as
a
reminder.
It's
not
time
to
celebrate
it's
time
to
reconfirm
that
commitment
towards
that
six
or
seven
million
dollar
number.
That
steve
says.
H
Oh
yeah,
the
one
thing
threats
steve
to
our
cash
flow:
you
know
it
it.
I
I'm
thinking
ahead.
Most
most,
you
guys
know
that
I'm
looking
what
happens
next
year,
what
happens
later
this
year?
Is
inflation
and
and
the
the
subsequent
I
say,
rubber
band
effect
on
on
people's
spending.
Is
that
something
we
should
be
concerned
with
and
really
look
at
sales
tax
through
the
next
year?
H
E
E
You
know
what
also
hit
us
from
the
economic
impact
from
2009
was
the
av
change,
property
and
property
values
in
the
uav.
You
know
that
that
was
a
huge
hit
for
a
number
of
years
before
that
changed
so
yeah
there's
there's
a
number
of
economic
factors
that
can
always
affect
our.
You
know,
monthly
flow,
you
know
and
and
then
and
then
the
the
big
picture,
like
property
tax.
You
know
the
whole
property
tax
cycle
and
stuff
that
happens.
You
know
certain
times
of
the
year,
so
thank.
H
A
E
Yeah,
I'm
aware
of
the
the
dollar
amount
for
the
circuit
clerk,
the
additional
copper
unit
to
go
bad
on
to
the
the
to
the
maintenance,
not
only
the
maintenance,
but
the
big
project.
There
was
one
that
fell
through
the
crack,
so
at
sixteen
thousand
four
ninety
nine
point,
nine
nine
and
it
is
we'll
go
along
with
the
others
new
copy
of
printers
on
this
one
for
the
circuit
clerk.
A
J
G
E
A
K
That's
it's
a
must
that
we
have
that
in
this
modern,
with
the
with
the
kobit,
we're
as
you
can
see,
it's
getting
higher
and
higher,
and
we
don't
know
what
we're
getting
in
there.
So
this
is
what
I
say:
it's
an
emergency
situation,
because
it's
not
running
right
now
and
we're
protected
as
much
as
possible.
K
K
The
first
one
I
got
in
there
was
was
a
little
bit
over
the
30
000
35
about
35
000,
which
the
second
quote
is
underneath
that
and
it
will
fit
into
our
particular
area.
Our
biggest
problem
is
the
cottonwoods
back
there.
The
cottonwoods
are
just
destroying
us
because
of
and
we
we
thought
about,
putting
the
fence
in
there,
but
then
you're
taking
the
air
out
of
there.
You
know
so
you're
we're
working
on
that
we're
maybe
putting
a
mesh
there's
a
new
in
this
one
system.
K
Here,
there's
a
mesh
that
comes
with
that
can
block
that
out,
but
we
need
to
have
that
maintenance
every
month
to
be
able
to
double
check
to
see.
If
that's,
if
that's
working,
it's
it's
something
that
I
think.
As
I
say,
I
think
it's
declared
an
emergency
right
now
that
we
have
to
get
that
done
because
there's
even
holes
in
the
vents
where
the
or
whenever
it
rains
or
it
doesn't
snowy
as
of
yet,
but
yet
it
gets
into
those
vents
there
and
they're
rusty.
K
We
we
took
a
look
at
that,
I'm
working
with
pat
o'connell,
who
knows
who
who
put
us
together
out
there
in
2005..
He
said
it's
really
bad
we're
lucky
to
hold
on
to
it
right
now.
So
the
other,
the
other
quote
that
which
I
can
get
you
it'll
be
far
under
probably
right
around
25
000.
If
probably
under
that,
that's
that's
at
a
high
quote:
25.,
we
don't
know
how
bad
the
air
handling
units
are
or
the
vents
are.
We
think
they're
all
right,
but
outside
we
don't.
K
So
that's
what
we're
working
on
right
now
and
I,
I
think,
the
instead
of
going
way
over
on
the
other
one
there.
This
one
here
will
work,
but
the
other
one
with
35
will
bring
it
up,
so
we
can
get
underneath
it
and
be
able
to
clean
that,
but
again
that's
going
to
be
over
35
000.
Probably
so
I'm
satisfied
with
this
here,
the
company
that
we
have
here
and
that's
why
I'm
coming
to
you
today,
it's
something
I
have
to
do
immediately.
K
I
don't
want
to
endanger
my
staff
or
my
doctors,
and
I
know
either
you
guys
do
so,
and
you
know
that
I
speak
the
truth
on
that.
So
we
do
have
a
new
machine
there,
but
it
like,
I
say,
is
bringing
us
out
with
negative
pressure.
We've
had
people
out
there
from
all
different
companies
and
saying
that
machine
is
about
gone
so
so
leave
that
up
with
any
questions
you
have,
if
we,
hopefully
you
can
get
this
in
in
the
harper
or
otherwise
it's
going
to
have
to
come
out
of
general.
H
E
K
K
A
A
A
G
I
think
it
was
in
september.
The
committee
approved
the
air,
the
monitoring
device
for
the
negative
pressure,
and
it
was
1.8
that
that
fell
under.
So
I
think
that
that
this
would
fall
into
that
as
well
and
with
without
the
update.
The
money
that
we've
already
invested
is
no
good,
because
it
won't
work
properly
with
the
system.
M
K
M
A
C
G
B
G
A
A
B
A
A
G
A
M
F
Merry
christmas
to
everybody,
I
guess,
first
and
foremost,
the
year
has
wrapped
up.
We
have
distributed
our
final
distribution,
so
the
taxing
bodies
all
have
all
the
money
they're
getting
from
us.
For
the
year
we
collected
about
three
quarters
of
a
percent
more
than
we
did
last
year
and
we
had
we
sold
less
properties
at
tax
hill
this
year,
which
is
a
good
thing.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
it
means
more
people,
our
taxes
were
paid
and
that's
what
we
prefer.
F
We
continue
to
give
more
options,
and
if
you
can
believe
this,
we
already
have
taxes
being
paid
right
now
for
the
upcoming
year,
people
are
already
putting
away
money
in
the
choices
program.
So
it's
a
great
thing
and
we'll
continue
to
move
forward
other
than
that.
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
my
staff,
who
continue
to
do
an
incredible
job
and
thank
you
to
the
people
of
the
county.
L
L
L
L
L
Obviously,
the
courthouse
and
the
juveniles
up
significantly
due
to
our
courts,
kind
of
getting
back
to
somewhat
normal
as
far
as
court
cases
moving
along
and
our
transports
for
ice
in
the
us,
marshall
are
down
significantly
mainly
due
to
the
courts
in
chicago
utilizing
a
video
system.
So
a
lot
of
these
inmates
and
detainees
are
appearing
via
video
from
our
building
to
chicago,
so
that
limits
the
transports,
which
is,
which
is
a
good
thing
for
us
and
two
other
things
we
have.
L
Our
fatal
accidents
are
up
this
year
to
15
from
13,
and
our
homicides
are
up
this
year
to
17
compared
to
nine
last
year,
so
they've
basically
doubled.
Those
homicides
are
county-wide
so
and
we
are
as
like
everybody
in
the
general
public.
At
this
point,
we
are
dealing
with
some
covet
issues
involving
both
our
staff
on
both
sides,
the
corrections
and
the
deputies,
as
well
as
a
small
number
of
inmates.
So.
L
A
little
yeah,
obviously
it's
creating
a
little
overtime.
Okay,
because
we
can
obviously
you
know
it's
and-
and
I
may
have
shared
this
with
this
committee
before-
if
not.
If
I
did,
I
apologize,
but
you
know
part
of
historically
we
have
always
had
and
and
it's
kind
of
prevalent
in
law
enforcement
in
general
or
at
least
corrections
where
you
know
sick
time.
You
know
people
call
off
sick,
I
mean
they,
you
know
get
tired
of
doing
it.
L
They
call
off
sick
because
they
just
want
to
day
away
or
whatever
you
know,
and
we
were
encouraging
people
at
one
point
back
in
the
day
to
say
you
know
if
you
have
the
sniffles,
if
you
have
a
cough
whatever
you
know
show
up
to
work,
if
you
don't
feel
good,
we'll
send
you
home
well
now
with
covid,
that's
all
been
reversed.
Now
it's
if
you
have
the
sniffles
a
cough
or
whatever
stay
home
stay
away.
So
you
know
most
of
our
employees
are
heeding
that
advice,
but
you
know
some
that
are
dedicated.
L
They
just
want
to
come
to
work.
You
know.
Maybe
they
are
asymptomatic
and
you
know
they
come
to
work
anyway
and
then
it
you
know,
gets
to
others,
and
you
know
you
can
only
do
so
much
to
limit
the
contact
and
all
that
so,
but
no,
we
we're
having
a
little
bit
of
problem
with
you
know
we're
not
having
any
problem
with
it,
we're
certainly
filling
and
backfilling
the
shifts,
but
yeah
it
certainly
affects
our
daily
manpower,
sure
scheduling,
night.
Okay,
thank
you.
L
And
what
shield
force
is
is
a
it's
basically,
an
app
for
your
mobile
phones,
which
shield
force
will
be
able
to
be
placed
on
every
mobile
phone
of
every
law
enforcement
officer
in
the
county
and,
ultimately,
that
will
lead
to
with
this
app.
It
will
lead
to
the
computers
that
we
have
in
our
cars
that
the
municipalities
have
in
their
cars.
L
L
Well,
what
shield
force
will
ultimately
do
is
as
these
as
these
computers
start
kind
of
getting
outdated
shield
force.
We
will
then
be
able
to
replace
some
of
those
computers
with
basically
tablets,
which
are
obviously
significantly
cheaper,
so
long
term,
and
I
I
I
caution
you
to
look
at
this,
not
as
a
one-time
purchase,
but
as
a
as
something
that
will
last
us
well
into
the
future,
where
we
won't
have
to
purchase
these
tough
books
in
these.
L
L
It
gives
us
100
percent
accessibility
when
officers
are
away
from
their
cars
had
it
gives
us
it's
just
like
having
our
in-car
computer
with
us
when
we're
out
of
the
car.
So
it's
it's
very
beneficial.
We
don't
have
to
go
back
and
forth
to
the
car
to
put
stuff
in
the
computer.
We
can
do
it
right
off
our
phones.
L
L
L
Now
I
know
one
thing
with
arpa
and
even
loss
revenue
we're
looking
at.
What's
our
cost
moving
forward
after
our
funds
are
gone,
basically
that
one
time
cost
is
it
the
fifty
thousand
dollars?
The
only
cost
we
would
incur,
along
with
the
other
municipalities,
is
that
eleven
thousand
five
hundred
and
fifty
dollars-
and
that
would
be
pro
rated
with
the
other
municipalities,
as
we
already
do
with
our
tyler
system.
So
each
municipality
now
pays
reimburses
the
county
for
maintenance
of
our
entire
system.
L
So
we
would
get
the
cost
to
the
sheriff's
office
would
be
about
two
thousand
dollars
of
that
eleven
thousand
dollars.
All
the
other
municipalities
would
make
up
the
difference
of
of
that
eleven
thousand
dollars
pro
rated
based
on
size
and
number
of
users
and
so
on.
So
it
would
certainly
benefit
right
now
I
mean
we
bill
out
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
maintenance
fees
to
other
municipalities
that
reimburse
us.
The
county
pays
our
maintenance
fees
up
front.
L
A
H
I,
like
the
idea
sheriff
I
I
think
this
is
a
definite
cost
savings
measures
we
go
forward,
like
you
said:
five
grand
versus
750
or
a
thousand
on
a
computer,
it's
paid
for
first
year
for
years
to
come.
So
I
I
like
the
the
the
financial
model
question.
If
you
have
this
app
on
your
phone,
could
you
get
drone
footage
in
a
situation
where
you
want
to
see?
What's
going
on
with
the
drone.
L
And
I'm
I
am
unsure.
I
know
that
actually
mentioned
the
drone.
We
actually
had
the
drone
out
this
morning,
looking
for
two
catalytic
converter,
thiefs
that
we
ended
up
catching
so
it's,
but
I
know
that
at
this
point
we
didn't
have.
We
don't
have
that
right
now.
I
don't
know
if
it
it
can
do
that.
Okay,
all
right.
D
L
D
A
H
A
B
G
A
L
L
L
L
L
I
would
recommend
that
we
enter
into
a
similar
agreement,
a
three-year
agreement
and
extend
it
for
five
years
in
one
year
increments,
so
that
food
prices
go
up,
we
can
adjust.
If
food
prices
go
down,
maybe
we
can
adjust.
I
can't
I
listen.
We
all
know
that,
once
things
go
up
very,
they
very
rarely
come
down,
but
there's
always
that
potential
a
couple
things
to
also
keep
in
mind
with
with
country
table
and
their
service
that
they
provided
us.
L
We
have
no
food
issues
with
our
inmates
and-
and
I
know
that
this
this
committee
and
a
lot
of
the
general
population
understand
that
you
know
you
have
to
provide
food
for
these
inmates
and
it
should
be
decent
food
for
our
staff.
That's
one
less
headache
that
our
staff
has
to
deal
with.
If
a
guy,
if
an
inmate
gets
a
crappy
meal,
not
enough
food,
he's
going
to
complain,
he's
going
to
fight
he's
going
to
throw
it
back
at
our
officers
he's
going
to,
we
don't
have
those
issues
at
the
jail.
L
L
You
know
it's
it's
about
and
and
I'm
sure
that
there
are
places
that
maybe
are
able
to
feed
inmates
for
less,
but
I
guarantee
you
that
food
won't
be
the
quality
that
these
guys
are
getting
and
and
let's
face
it,
you
know
we
are.
We
are
in
a
society
and
say
what
you
want
about
somebody
in
custody.
It
is
still
our
responsibility
to
treat
them
with
compassion
and
and
treat
them
as
human
beings
and
respect
their
dignity
and
taking
food
away
from
them
is
not
how
to
do
it.
L
A
N
L
L
H
Thank
you
just
a
couple
questions
the
the
ice
standard
that
is
pretty
much
the
highest
standard
that
you're
held
to
correct
and
we're
keeping
that
even
though
ice
is
not
here,
we
are
that
that
should
speak
to
how
we
value
and
want
to
treat
everybody.
The
second
thing
is:
what
is
the
nature
of
the
motion?
Is
it
a
three-year
with
options
you
mentioned?
Some
of
that
I
need
to.
I
would
suggest
that
I.
L
J
G
L
Yeah,
some
of
the
things
I
mean
the
kitchen
is
that
kitchen
is
was
opened
in
2005,
so
it's
21,
no
10,
16
years
old,
there's
16
years
that
we've
been
operating
yeah.
I
got
to
take
my
shoes
off
16
years.
We've
been
operating
it
and
so
things
are
going
to.
Obviously
you
know
and-
and
they
come
in
to
our
facility-
they
have
food
that
they
order
that
they
store
in
our
storage
areas
and
yeah.
It's
it's
a
really.
They
do
a
wonderful
job.
L
B
A
B
G
L
I
probably
can't
repeat
what
was
told
to
them
in
an
open
meeting
like
this,
that's
public
where
kids
might
be
watching.
However,
we
said
no,
ultimately,
the
negotiation
got
up
to
70
a
day
which
we
agreed
to
they
sent
out
notification
and
wanted
information
from
us
by
october.
By
august
august,
16th
of
21.
L
L
Jared
brunk,
he
is
the
financial
guy
for
the
illinois
department
of
corrections.
He
works
for
the
acting
director,
rob
jeffries,
who
the
last
time
I
called
the
illinois
department
of
corrections
and
I've
called
them
a
lot
and
I'm
sure
that
when
they
hear
my
name
over
the
phone,
I'm
sure
they
scrambled
not
to
answer
the
last
time
I
called
I
said
I
don't
want
to
talk
to
anybody
else,
but
rob
jeffries
and
I've
never
gotten
a
call
back.
L
L
I
mean
they're
not
going
to
pay,
they.
They
are
setting
every
sheriff
up
in
the
state
of
illinois
to
fail,
and
the
burden
obviously
will
fall
back
on
me
because
it's
going
to
say,
oh,
the
sheriff
didn't
sign
it
because
it
specifically
says
in
here.
If
I
don't
return
this
paperwork
by
december,
30th
that
any
money
that
was
going
to
be
allocated
to
us
will
be
allocated
other
sheriffs.
L
I
L
L
H
H
H
Exactly
and
then
you
see
this
big
pot
of
money,
the
governor
has
of
arpa
money
that
he
is
in
control
of
with
a
b
at
the
end
of
it.
Instead
of
an
m
billion
million,
I
mean
there's
it's
it's
sitting
there
that
he
can
control
and
so
to
say
you
don't
have
money
to
honor.
Your
obligations
is
disingenuous
at
best,
it's
a
lie
and
at
its
face
value,
so
I
I
I
don't
know
if
that's
what
we
want
to
do
now.
