Have
no
requests
for
public
comment.
Are
there
any
public
comments,
seeing
no
requests
for
public
comments?
We
have
no
presentations,
we'll
move
to
approval
of
the
minutes
that
January
23rd
minutes
have
been
distributed.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
mr.
Bern
rose
as
high
as
seconds
any
discussion
on
the
motion
to
approve
the
minutes?
A
E
It's
the
morning
all
I
have
to
report
is
just
the
progress
on
the
payment
plan
that
we're
running
through
the
treasurer's
office.
It's
going
well,
you
know
we
have
the
four
payment
plan
that
this
is
overlapping
with
two,
so
we're
getting
busier
I
think
we've
probably
taken
in
a
little
over
a
million
dollars
million
and
a
half,
and
so
far
so
good,
we're
speaking
tonight
at
the
first
ward
meeting
to
discuss
it
and
we've
been
out
to
Pembroke
and
around
the
county
different
places.
So
that's
all
I
have
to
report
there.
Any
questions.
A
A
A
D
We
went
from
unsettling
news
last
month
of
good
news
this
month,
I
will
start
out
with
some
of
the
regular
monthly
reports.
This
is
your
end
update
on
the
sales
tax,
nice
year-over-year
increase
of
6.1%.
So
it's
a
very
positive
sign
local
economy
as
well.
As
you
know
what
we
collect
here
for
the
county,
so
there's
the
note
four
percent
last
year,
six
percent
this
year.
So
that's
a
couple
of
nice
trends
showing
up
let's
use
tax
is
also
showing
stop
me.
If
you
had
guys
have
any
questions
specifically,
but.
D
We're
starting
to
show
some
higher
trend
and
use
tax
I
with
the
change
in
the
online.
The
you
know,
sales
tax
collection
process,
we'll
see
if
that
becomes
a
trend
or
not
so
we're
watching
that
closely.
But
a
couple
of
nice
increases
there
year
over
a
year,
eight
percent
in
FY,
17
and
12
percent
and
FY
18.
D
D
A
D
Other
TW
update
the
good
news
is
two
sides
of
the
good
news
that
we
closed
and
only
closed
on,
the
regular
ta
W
amount
of
2.5
million
so
with
the
federal
government
remaining
open,
open
and
and
were
almost
fully
caught
up.
As
far
as
to
what
would
we
call
normal
process
for
the
receivables
from
the
feds
we
discussed,
you
know
the
variance
and
it
looks
you
know
like
we
could
just
go
back
to
what
we
were
looking
at
is
our
normal
process.
So
that's
what
we
did
so
there's
a
lot
of
positive
conversation.
D
You
know
it
definitely
connects
to
what
we're
going
to
talk
about
next
deal.
You
know
it's
all
it's
all
connected,
but
you
know
I
think
first
American
Bank.
They
put
a
lot
of
time
in
in
a
very
short
period
of
time
about
a
two
to
three
week
process
approved.
You
know
an
additional
amount
if
we
needed
it
and
as
it
came
down
to
it,
we
did
not.
So
it
was
a
lot
of
work
for
thanks,
but
no
thanks.
D
D
C
D
Week
ago,
so
so
that's
good
news,
so
we're
following
the
normal
plan,
I
guess
at
this
point
using
normal
TW
that
we
categorized
it
in
and
stepping
out
of
this
you
know
year
by
year
and
that's
kind
of
what
this
cashflow
indicates
right
now
and
estimates
going
forward
at
least
through
July.
At
this
point,
I
ran
a
lot
of
scenarios
through
this
spreadsheet.
D
You
know,
and
basically
we
went
from
if
the
feds
would
have
shut
down
again
and
the
timing
of
with
the
30-day
layoff
and
then
that
agencies
catching
up
and
if
they
would
have
shut
down
again,
we
absolutely
would
have
needed
the
full
amount
to
make
it
through
the
March
payroll.
So
we
went
we're
in
a
situation
this
few
weeks
ago,
only
having
literally
one
payroll
in
the
bank
a
little
over
one
payroll,
and
now
we
have
four
and
a
half
heading
into
this
week's.
So
the
difference
in
just
a
few
weeks
time
is
pretty
staggering.
D
A
D
April
will
be
probably
the
toughest
month
from
what
we
just
experienced
anyway.
You
know
everything
being
normal
after
the
street
payrolls
and
keeping
up
with
everything.
But
you
know
the
difference
with
the
number
I
highlighted
there.
One
point:
eight
estimating
approximately
is,
if
you
look
at
FY
18,
which
is
on
maybe
B
I,
don't
know
in
your
captions
if
it's
right
on
the
back
side
or
right.
D
Next
to
this
one
for
analysis,
we
we
estimate
keeping
up
with
our
accounts
payable
process,
as
we
are
now
so
in
staying
within
30
to
45
days
and
keeping
everybody
up,
and
that's
that's
a
lot
different
from
a
year
ago
and
how
and
what
we
were
paying
in
the
outstanding
payables
at
the
bottom
of
FY
18.
So,
even
though
the
number
may
look
a
little
tight,
but
the
situation
is
way
different
way
better
for
the
outstanding
receivables
being
at
such
a
low
level.
D
So
this
will
continue
to
steadily
increase
and
improve
also
note
in
July
as
the
first
payment
that
in
the
plan
paying
highway
back,
we'll
discuss
more
of
that
here
in
just
a
second.
But
so
we,
when
we
originally
talked
about
the
twz,
need
him
for
proximately
three
more
years
there
was
a
three
year
plan
to
pay
highway
back
and
we're.
D
A
D
The
first
one
I
want
to
bring
to
your
attention
is
the
changes
in
fund
balance
report,
and
you
know
this.
This
report
was
used
when
we
talked
to
Home
Star
in
People's
Bank
for
the
original
two
two
and
a
half
ta
W
and
I
want
to
met
to
thank
them
as
well
for
continuing
to
partner
with
us,
but
the
two
year
I
want
to
bring
you
attention.
A
two-year
change
in
fund
balance,
number
of
five
point:
five
million
dollars.
D
As
you
can
see,
you
know
even
we're
in
a
combined
total
the
first
year
that
the
all
three
funds
are
in
a
positive
combine
fund
balance,
total
amount
and
obviously,
there's
still
work
to
do
for
the
general
fund,
but
I
believe
and
we'll
be
working
on
that
soon
to
figure
out
approximately
when
in
fiscal
year,
nineteen
that
will
become
a
positive
number
as
well.
But
while
we're
absorbing
all
that
good
news,
we've
got
to
also
plug
in
that
we
literally
have
to
do
that,
plus
more
the
five
and
a
half
million.
D
Do
it
and
continue
that
process
and
duplicate
that
to
reach.
You
know
the
the
recommended
goals.
You
know
the
fund
balances
and
where
we
were
at
one
time
back
in
2008,
so
with
having
a
combined
fund
balance
total
of
nine
point,
six
million.
So
the
positive
one
point
four
is
good
news,
especially
what
we've
been
during
the
last
four
or
five
years,
but
to
be
able
to
absorb
an
economic
situation,
whether
that's
from
the
federal
government
or
something
you
know,
economic
downturn
that
affects
us
to
be
able
to
write
it
out
on
our
own.
D
A
D
F
D
Yeah,
well,
that's
a
good
question.
Actually,
you
know
there's
quite
a
quite
a
number
of
things.
Obviously
you
know
with
the
increase
that
we've
had
and
the
better
on
program
we've
seen
in
these
reports.
You
can
see
that
why
bring
these
reports
is.
These
are
some
of
the
most
critical
ones
that
yeah
we
watch
and
you
know
sales
tax
use.
Tax
we've
had
some
ups
and
downs
in
income
tax
and
p
brt
the
replacement
tax
because
of
the
state
changing
how
they
budget.
But
it's
also,
you
know
there
were
a
lot
of
cuts
made.
D
You
know
this
is
you
know
the
pain
that
was
felt
through
all
this
every
you
know
elected
and
appointed
to
pay
a
board
member
everybody
you
know
participated
in
felt.
You
know
the
pain
of
what
we
went
through
and
without
all
the
cuts
in
and
E,
and
then
the
advances
you
know
we
would
not
have
been
a
position
to
be
able
to.
You
know,
start
climbing
back
out
of
the
hole.
So
it's
it's
really
a
combination
of
a
lot
of
things,
a
lot
of
hard
work,
but
you
know
it
from
a
lot
of
people.
D
D
A
H
D
Thank
you,
yeah.
That
is
about
2.3
million
of
this
as
well
yeah.
The
fund
balance
change,
as
thank
you.
That's
that's.
A
big
part
of
it,
and
a
million
of
the
surplus
specifically
for
FY
18
is,
is
the
million
dollar
payment
from
Will
County
the
cash
payment?
The
other
is
was
right
off
of
previous
payables
about
a
million
three.
You
know.
So
that's
how
that
was
split
so
that
and
then
the
ongoing
benefit
is
the
fact
that
we're
not
paying
them
right
now.
F
Thank
you,
mister.
So,
from
that
standpoint
to
continue
this
change
in
combined
totals
we're
still
gonna
have
to
stay
tight
in
terms
of
expenses
and
figure
out
ways
to
increase
income,
or
if
we
just
continue
on
the
road
that
we're
going
now,
assuming
everything
remains
unchanged.
We'll
pick
up
a
million
or
two
a
year
is
that
is
that
a
fair
summary
right.
D
D
Can't
or
don't
increase
and
our
expenses
you
know
will
be
that
will
slowly
come
down.
You
know,
as
the
expenses
go
up
so
in
order
to
keep
going
yes,
we
did.
We
definitely
need
to
hold
the
line.
The
best
that
we
can.
You
know
as
well
as
look
at
other.
You
know
any
possibility
to
advance
to
the
proper
level
of
fund
balance
from
where
we're
at.
Thank
you.
D
There's
two
parts
to
the
interfund
borrowing:
the
board
already
did
a
resolution
for
the
day-to-day
if
you
will
and
if
I'm
borrowing.
This
is
a
snapshot
specifically
as
of
11:30
2018
for
the
year-end
capper
report
that
we're
working
on
so
and
there's
also
an
analysis
of
a
year
to
year
over
the
past
few
years
of
the
interfund
borrowing
you
know,
and
it's
declined.
So
you
know
the
one
thing
to
note,
as
we
you
know
had
these
discussions
that
you
know
our
fund
balance
snapshot
as
of
11:30.
D
You
know
that
we
just
looked
at
is
our
cash
position
is
quite
different
than
our
snapshot
of
fund
balance.
So
when
we
you
know,
the
cash
is,
is
on
its
own
journey
and
it's
going
to
be
a
little
longer.
A
few
more
years
before
you
know,
general
fund
cash
will
be
positive
again.
So
still
a
lot
of
work
to
do,
and
our
cash
position
is,
is
one
important
one
to
keep
in
mind
that
sits
behind
the
scenes
most
of
the
time
so
the
so.
This
is
basically
a
snapshot
that
you
see
the
two
highway
funds.
D
A
A
B
D
J
D
J
A
D
A
D
K
A
A
K
B
A
L
Good
morning,
I
really
don't
have
a
whole
lot
other
than
just
a
couple
comments
about
our
population
and
where
we're
going
from
the
standpoint
of
numbers.
When
you
talk
about
marshals
and
ice,
our
Marshal
population
has
increased
significantly
over
the
last
four
or
five
months,
and
the
indications
that
we
get
from
them
is
that
that
will
continue
to
increase
a
little
bit.
L
Ice
continues
to
remain
consistent
of
our
Marshall.
Numbers
have
gone
up
to
200
on
average
of
225
a
month.
Ice
has
stayed
consistent
at
about
150.
Our
locals
are
a
little
bit
concerning
at
270,
which
is
a
little
bit
high.
So
obviously
we,
those
are
the
ones
that
were
responsible
for
first,
so
when
our
numbers
get
too
high.
Obviously
that
means
we
move
some
people
out.
So
we
monitor
that
closely
day-to-day.
L
L
Is
that
what
what
chairman
wheeler
said
about
the
juvenile
detention
center
and
and
the
inmate
program,
and
that
I
think
it's
important
to
let
people
know
that
you
as
a
board
other
Department,
has
elected
officials,
have
contributed
to
this,
and-
and
this
is
a
big
big
recovery
and
with
everybody's
involvement,
everybody
continues
to
work
hard
to
get
our
number
numbers
back
to
where
they're,
workable
and
I
think
it's
a
credit
to
everybody
as
well.
So
that's
really
all
I
have.
A
A
M
J
You
mr.
Jimmy
morning,
Jake
good
morning,
mr.
Bern,
what
was
your
reasoning
for
not
signing
off
on
the
payment
to
the
lobbyists
so.
M
I
stated
that
in
the
report
that
I
believe
that
we
already
have
associations
and
representatives
in
place
for
such
activities-
and
you
know
it
is
the
purview
of
the
war
to
authorize
payments.
I
can
only
make
a
recommendation,
so
any
of
my
recommendations
would
not
result
in
a
breach
of
contract.
Anything
like
that,
because
I
don't
have
the
authority
to
stop
any
payments.
It's
just
a
recommendation.
I.
A
J
A
A
A
Other
business,
as
most
of
you
are
aware,
the
governor
recently
signed
a
minimum
wage
increase.
The
chairman
has
asked
her
County
Administrator
to
do
an
impact
study,
and
so,
if
you
would
come
up
by
Nita
and
we
can
discuss
what
you've
been
able
to
discern
so
far,
this
is
happening
rather
quickly
and
I.
Think
she's
had
to
work
really
hard
to
put
something
together
for
us
today.
I
Thank
you.
So
what
you
have
in
front
of
you
is
a
list.
I
took
out
the
names,
I
downloaded
every
employee
and
their
salary
and
equated
it
to
an
hourly
and
then
average
hours
per
month,
and
that's
this
sheet.
It's
kind
of
small
but
I
like
things
on
one
page.
So
so
what
you
see
each
line
is
another
employee
over.
On
the
far
left
hand,
side
is
noted,
part-time,
and
that
comes
into
effect.
I
So
what
you
see
is
really.
The
first
increase
is
January
1st
of
2022
925
and
then
July
1st
of
2020.
It
goes
to
$10,
so
there's
nobody
that's
going
to
impact
our
first
impact
or
2020
July
1st
of
2020.
We
have
two
employees
both
within
the
animal
control
area.
There
are
certain
departments
that
really
are
more
heavily
hit
than
others,
and
so
the
impact,
as
you
can
see,
is
really
quite
small.
If
you
go
to
the
bottom,
where
you
look
at
the
cost
per
year,
it's
a
few
hundred
dollars.
I
So
as
these
people
roll
in
and
then
in
2021
2022,
it
really
doesn't
become
a
big
impact
until
2023
when
we
start
to
hit
into
our
clerical
level
employees
and
when
you
get
to
23,
24
and
25.
That's
a
lot
of
what.
What
we
see
happening
is
those
clerical
level
employees
rolling
in
and
the
increases
there
and
then
at
that
point
it's
almost
a
double-edged
sword,
because
then
those
are
full-time
employees,
so,
instead
of
just
part-time,
which
leaves
us
with
a
smaller,
then
we're
getting
into
full-time
people.
So
we
have
a
much
larger
impact.
I
I
People
where
the
rate
of
our
work
comp
policy
is
65
cents
obvious,
so
that
made
a
big
difference
as
well,
where
those
people
roll
in
but
bottom
line.
When
I
look
at
all
the
years,
it's
another
thirty
five
thousand
dollars
on
top
of
the
salary,
so
it
a
ver
ajiz
out
to
a
twenty
percent,
but
it
doesn't
roll
out
that
way,
based
on
the
classification
of
employee,
largely
work
comp
and
I
MRF,
and
when
those
roll
in
based
on
the
employee
type.
I
$223.00
and
another
fifteen
after
that
that
make
between
1601
and
seventeen
dollars.
So
if
you
look
at
the
top,
where
the
average
increases,
if
we
start
addressing
that-
and
you
have
employees
getting
an
eight
eight
to
ten
percent-
raise
a
year
increase
a
year
to
try
and
keep
those
people
at
fifteen
or
sixteen
dollars
an
hour
to
two
two
and
a
half
two
and
a
quarter
percent,
which
is
what
we've
really
done
for
the
bulk
of
our
employees.
That
becomes
a
challenge,
a
challenge.
I
The
other
one
thing
I
did
want
to
mention
is
union
contracts.
Those
really
don't
come
into
play
in
the
current
contracts,
the
current
contracts
all
end
in
2020
or
20
21
and
the
impacted
employees
in
those
contracts
don't
roll
in
until
after
that
date.
So
it
doesn't
impact
the
current
union
contracts.
But
negotiations
on
the
next
set
of
contracts
is
all
going
to
be
impacted
by
this.
F
I'm
gonna
play
the
other
side
of
this
I'm,
not
convinced
that
this
is
as
bad
as
it
looks
on
paper.
If
you
factor
in
wage
increases
at
two
and
a
half
percent
to
two
two
and
a
half
percent,
what
we're
looking
at
it
appears
to
cover
most
of
this,
and
if
the
county
could
be
in
a
decent
shape
for
this
wage
increase.
I
think.
F
It
isn't
true:
we
give
a
wage
increase
every
year
to
an
effort
and
it's
almost
gonna
write
us
out.
I,
don't
know
if
we're
gonna
have
a
significant
impact
where
I
see
an
impact
potentially
coming
is
that
second
tier
correct
when
we
get
close
to
the
the
more
trained
and
we
find
somebody
coming
on
cuz
we're
gonna
be
hiring
new
hires
at
twelve
and
fifteen
dollars
in
twenty.
That's
when
we're
gonna
have
a
problem
and
I,
don't
know
what
that
means.
F
H
I
H
I
A
F
I
So
the
keyless
entry
system,
Wes
and
I,
worked
on
this
with
input
from
Andy
related
to
the
buildings
that
we
have
now
Wes
had
a
situation
or
was
looking
into
keyless
entry.
I,
don't
know
if
you
want
to
talk
about
that.
Wes
did
some
work
for
possibly
putting
keyless
entry
into
this
building
and
Andy
asked
me
to
look
into
what
would
happen
if
we
tied
that
to
a
payroll
system.
I
H
Yes,
this
this
was
in
building
grounds
and
we
have
a.
We
have
a
need
to
look
at
this,
because
we
every
time
that
we
either
lose
keye
somebody
leaves
our
employment
and
they
don't
have
a
master
key.
We
have
to
go
through
and
change
all
the
locks,
and
so
with
that
need
being
the
way
that
is
it's
quite
expensive.
And
so,
if
we
were
looking
at
a
keyless
entry
for
the
door,
why
not
give
one
that
could
talk
to
a
payroll
system?
H
And
so
we
may
not
move
to
the
payroll
system
right
away,
but
at
least
we're
ready
for
that
next
step.
If
it
makes
financial
sense
to
do
so.
So
that
was
why
I
asked
building
your
grounds
to
say
yeah.
We
we
we
agree
with
this
and
then
also
to
put
it
to
finance
to
let
them
know
what
we're
looking
at
and
to
kind
of
update
the
committee
for
when
the
time
comes,
that
we
do
have
a
proposal
that
this
is
where
the
decision
will
be
made.
H
H
It
was
supposed
to
be
25,
grand
I
believe
and
now
we're
upwards
of
eighty
four
thousand
four
thousand
dollars,
because
all
of
our
special
check
runs
that
we
had
to
do
for
back
pay
and
all
the
special
pay
codes
we
have
because
of
our
contracts,
and
it
looked
good
like
a
good
decision.
But
we
didn't
ask
the
people
who
worked
with
the
system
when
we
made
that
decision.
H
So
this
time
we're
gonna
work
with
the
people
who
have
to
work
with
the
system,
because
price
is
not
always
cost
and
and
so
I'm
trying
to
bundle
this
into
some
type
of
an
overarching
solution,
because
we
have
the
courthouse
who
has
swype
in.
We
have
obviously
all
of
the
you
know
the
other
facilities,
the
public
safety
that
they
swipe
in
they
secure
the
building.
Why
not
have
something
that
we
could
use
for?
A
time
system
as
well,
because
it's
very
labor
intensive,
extremely
labor
intensive
to
do
this.
I
I
Does
he
move
forward
with
the
keyless
entry
into
this
building,
or
will
that
become
obsolete?
When
we
look
at
this
as
an
entire
package
in
a
few
years
or
whenever
the
board
decides
that
they
want
to
look
at
that
and
the
conversation
or
the
the
initial
impact
from
both
of
them,
and
we
had
several
conversations
back
and
forth,
especially
with
one
of
them,
specifics
seems
to
be
that
their
their
payroll
that
payroll
tie-in
they
can
make
that
logic
work
with
the
hardware
that's
installed.
Currently,
that's
initial.
I
They
haven't
looked
at
it
in
specifics,
but
that's
kind
of
where
that
is
right.
Now
that
it
seemed
that
we
wouldn't
have
to
tear
out
all
the
keyless
entry.
That's
currently
installed
to
reinstall
and
having
it
already
installed
here
at
189,
wouldn't
mean
that
that
becomes
obsolete
whenever
the
board
decides
that
they
wanted
to
add
that
piece
for
payroll.
I
H
N
So
what
what
we
were
looking
at,
we
had
two
proposals:
one
was
for
the
bolt
doors,
the
South
door
and
the
west
door.
I
think
what
we're
looking
at
is
just
doing
the
West
door
and
having
that
may
be
the
main
access
point
for
the
building.
The
proposal
was
$5,100
and
that's
just
for
the
vendor
to
come
in
and
install
the
system
that
we'd
have
to
have
a
locksmith
come
in
I.
Don't
expect
that
to
be
much,
maybe
300
bucks,
400
bucks,
so
in
the
realm
of
50
500
is
where
it
would
be.
That.
A
F
N
I
H
O
Sorry
and
II
kind
of
addressed
what
I
was
doing
mainly
what
I
was
saying
is
before
we
went
any
farther.
Make
sure
that
the
other
parties
that
needed
to
be
involved
got
inside
the
project
that
had
less
to
do
what
was
his
talking
about?
That's
when
Nina
said
the
payroll
since
I
was
involved
in
the
previous
process.
I
was
saying
and
make
sure
actually
the
Steve's
Department
was
involved
with
that
and
that
the
technology
would
work.
O
O
C
O
N
We've
already
have
the
system
out
at
Jerome
combs,
so,
for
instance,
when
I
was
hired,
I
went
out.
There
got
my
badge
and
it's
all
right
here
so
anywhere
I
go
this
lets
me
and
what
they
programmed
the
key
based
upon
what
buildings
you
need
access
to,
so
for
the
employees
in
this
building,
they
would
have
an
ID
badge
that
would
only
grant
them
access
to
this
building.
So,
yes,
we
have
the
machine
right
now
to
make
these,
because
we
have
like
Andy,
said
the
courthouse.
N
C
F
Would
like
committee
to
suggest
that
a
number
higher
than
six
grand
I
heard
fifty
some
hundred
just
to
get
the
unit
set
up
and
then
you've
got
to
hire
a
locksmith
and
there
might
be
an
electrician
involved
unless
the
vendor
is
going
to
do
it.
I
I
would
like
input
from
Wes
or
from
Anita
in
terms
of
what
they
think
we
should
allow.
O
What
I've
heard
Wes
talk
about
this
seems
like
something
did
we
we
had
looked
into
this
several
years
ago
and
I
had
nothing
to
do
with
the
payroll
part.
Is
we
had
plans
before
the
economy
went
down
to
to
do
just
what
was
talking
about
doing
it
and
I
think
it
was
my
ran
out
of
money,
so
we
backed
off
sounds
like
he's,
describing
the
same
thing
that
we
looked
at,
which
is
kind
of
tying
in
to
the
sheriff's
system,
which
actually
dramatically
brings
down
the
cost.
