Description
Finance Committee Meeting 6/27/2018 9:00 AM
A

D
E
Well,
good
morning,
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
few
minutes,
because
I'm
kind
of
buried
in
the
agenda
and
I
know
that
this
will
pass
or
be
discussed
before
I
get
an
opportunity
to
comment,
but
I
did
email
the
board.
The
fiscal
policy
and
procedure
manual
notes
that
I
had
regarding
that
document.
Simply
because
there
is,
there
are
some
concerns
with
the
process
to
procedure
the
language
in
the
document
and
some
of
the
perpetual
infringement
on
the
Auditor
statute.
E
That
continues
to
happen
as
a
result
of
that
document,
and
so
I
would
like
to
urge
that
this
body
would
strongly
consider
voting
against
the
approving
this
measure
until
all
of
those
issues
are
ironed
out.
Some
examples
of
this
would
be
just
the
the
first
paragraph
of
it.
You
know
we
used
to
have
it
say
that
we
were
under
a
County,
Board
form
of
government
and
no
such
form
of
government
exists.
It's
commissioners,
its
township,
and
it's
a
you,
know
a
county
executive
form
of
government
in
the
state
of
Illinois.
E
So-
and
there
are
things
throughout
the
document
in
terms
of
the
accounting
functions
that
are
vested
in
an
office
other
than
the
auditor's
office,
and
that
is
not
legal
by
state
statute.
The
county
board,
you
know,
should
not
support
the
altering
of
statutory
functions,
because
that
is
not
legal
per
the
state
statute.
Fifty-Five,
ILCs,
five
4/5
ten.
Eighty
seven
so
I
would
ask
that
this
body
would
please
please
please
not
support
this
document,
because
it
perpetuates
a
statutory
violation
that
should
not
exist.
E
In
addition
to
that,
I
wanted
to
point
out
a
few
things
in
terms
of
process
flow.
You
know
the
county
auditor's
office
is
a
county,
wide
elected
position,
as
you
all
know,
and
we're
responsible
and
accountable
to
one
hundred
ten
thousand
people.
We
believe
that
our
statutory
function
should
be
restored
to
this
office
and
practice,
because
we
already
have
them
by
law.
It
should
be
restored
in
practice
so
that
the
accounting
functions
that
relate
to
County
finance
are
not
vested
in
an
office
where
one
individual
reports
to
one
individual.
E
B
B
F
Good
morning,
everyone,
as
you
know,
we're
in
tax
time
tax
taking
time
we've
passed
the
deadline
for
first
installment,
but
we're
still
getting
payments.
Second
installment
is
September
4th,
which
is
the
Tuesday
following
Labor
Day,
and
if
anybody
has
been
being
asked,
mobile
home
bells
will
be
in
the
mail
by
the
20th
of
July
and
those
have
a
60-day
deadline
of
the
50
3416
parcels
in
our
County
10005
up
in
paid
in
full
we've
collected
about
800,
sorry,
108
million
out
of
192
million.
So
far
so
about
57%.
F
We
have
roughly
a
hundred
and
five
million
locked
up
right
now
in
a
30
day,
short-term
investment
vehicle
paying
one
point.
Six
two
percent
and
I
just
wanted
to
mention
something
that
I
think
can't
be
mentioned
enough.
We
did
about
four
percent
of
our
payments
on
the
internet,
so
about
four
and
a
half
million
escrow
is
about
22%
of
what
we
take
in
our
banks.
F
F
G
G
In
the
same
months,
we
did
not
do
additional
borrowing
and
so
and
we
did
with
less
TW
as
well.
So
that's
a
significant
change
in
one
year
and
it's
it's
showing
up
on
on
our
cash
flow
as
well.
As
you
know,
the
fiscal
year-end
report,
the
calf
or
the
auto
report
that
we
looked
at
the
draft
last
month.
You
know
the
actual
the
final
this
month
to
approve.
G
This
is
that's
a
significant
change,
so
the
things
that
have
significantly
impacted
one,
the
River,
Valley
Detention,
Center
agreement,
the
new
agreement
there,
the
additional
and
the
entire
program
with
the
bed
rental
program
and
also
you
know
the
the
running
of
department
heads
running.
You
know
very
lean
budgets.
After
going
through
the
cuts
that
have
been
that
we've
gone
through
I'll,
you
know
all
contributing
together.
So
just
wanted
to
point
that
out.
That's
a
significant
change
and
needed
be
identified
and
going
through.
G
Then
moving
into
the
next
page
with
the
inmate
bed
rental,
but
that
first
I
think
it's
appropriate
to
identify
that
we
set
a
new
record
if
you
will
using
a
sports
analogy.
As
we
looked
at
these
monthly
things
over
the
years,
I
highlighted
May
of
2018
and
March
of
2013,
so
those
current
billing,
the
May
billing,
is
now
the
highest.
G
That
I
believe
is
on
record
for
these
monthly
Billings
for
this
bed
rental
program,
so
I
commend
sheriff
Donnie
and
his
staff
and
I
thought
it
would
should
take
a
moment
to
look
at
that,
and
also,
if
you
look
year-to-date
on
that
same
page,
nine
hundred
fourteen
thousand
ahead
of
last
year,
that's
just
the
bad
run,
although
I'm
sure
the
the
other
reimbursements
are
higher
as
well.
But
you
know,
that's
also
goes
hand-in-hand
with
our
cash
flow
model.
You
know
because
that
took
place
in
the
most
difficult
months
of
cash
flow.
G
B
A
B
H
H
I
A
day
ahead
of
time
would
be
nice,
it's
similar
to
the
same
information
that
we
received
last
month,
except
for
this
month's
numbers
are
instead
of
anticipated,
they're
actual
factual
numbers,
so
I
was
just
wondering
the
trend
and
that
we
still
don't
know
where
our
unincorporated
sales
tax
numbers
is
coming
from.
Do
we
can't
figure
out
where
that
trend
is
rising
at?
Is
that
all
the
pop-up
stores,
the
dollar
generals,
the
things
that
are
happening
and
little
towns,
I'm
I'm
scratching
my
head
to
figure
out
how
come
that
number
keeps
going
on
a
lot.
G
I
B
G
The
next
item
is
the
approval
of
the
FY
17
comprehensive
annual
financial
report
officially
approved
and
sent
on
to
the
full
board.
Have
you
got
a
link
to
the
document
the
auditors
outside
auditors
were
here
last
month
with
the
draft
and
you
know
covered
they're
required
communications.
I,
don't
know
if
there
was
any
other
questions
or
not
about
that.
On
that
document
you.
B
I
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman,
is
this
annual
report.
Is
this
concrete
or
can
we
amend
as
we
go
forward
throughout
the
year?
Can
we
take
something
out
of
it,
or
is
this
once
we
once
we
approve
it
today?
Is
that
what
it's
set
till
we
approve
it
next
year
is
at
a
working
document
where
we
can
the
order.
The
auditor
has
brought
up
some
concerns
and
I
think
it's
best.
If
we
maybe
a
address
some
of
those
concerns,
there's
some
some
punctuation
and
spelling
it's
stuff
that
are
in
there.
G
J
B
G
The
next
item
is
a
amendment
to
the
fiscal
policy
and
procedure
manual.
We
discussed
this
last
month
with
some
updates.
It
did
go
through
the
previous,
the
June
full
board,
and
then
there
were
some
other
recommended
changes
to
the
document
and
it
has
been
reviewed
by
the
state's
attorney's
office.
I
believe
the
most
significant
change
is
with
the
adding
the
county
administrator
to
the
payroll
administration.
K
Thank
you
chairman.
My
question
is
directed
to
the
state's
attorney
mr.
Lee
sent
us
a
letter
out
to
us
if
everybody
got
a
copy
of
it,
and
he
says
in
here
that
I
invite
you
to
consider
all
the
facts
before
approving
this
policy
that
clearly
continues
to
violate
the
law.
My
question
the
state's
attorney's
office
is:
are
we
violating
the
law.
L
L
Morning,
everybody,
the
short
answer
to
your
question-
is
no
you're,
not
violating
a
law.
By
passing
this
policy
today,
our
office
took
a
look
at
the
language
that
you
reviewed
last
month.
We
incorporated
to
the
extent
we
could.
Mr.
Lee's
comments,
that's
the
punctuation
mr.
Cerra
was
talking
about.
Yes,
some
language
changes
he'd
like
to
us
to
consider,
and
we
did
it
so
in
terms
of
his
concerns
regarding
the
statutory
duties
of
his
office,
we
have
an
opinion
that
the
statute
is
ambiguous
as
to
what
general
accountant
means.
L
So
we
asked
the
Attorney
General
for
some
clarification
on
that
issue.
We
have
not
heard
back
from
the
Attorney
General
at
this
point,
so
it
might
be
the
case
that
when
we
do
receive
some
guidance
from
the
Attorney
General,
we
had
to
come
back
here
and
out
of
this
policy.
However,
at
this
point
in
time,
we
see
no
reason
why
this
policy
would
be
illegal.
Thank.
M
L
D
L
Missile-
just
that's
entirely
up
to
this
this
committee
and,
by
extension,
the
full
board.
As
Steve
said,
the
two
changes
you're
looking
at
today
are
adding
miss
peckmon
to
the
payroll
administration,
just
in
case
miss
Lang
voice.
Has
you
know
vacation
or
sick
time
or
whatever
she
wants
to
take,
so
someone
else
has
access
to
that
system,
and
then
mr.
Duvall
and
the
IT
department
had
some
changes
he'd
like
to
make
to
the
software
component.
So
those
are
the
two
substantive
changes
you're
viewing
today.
D
L
C
B
G
J
I
thank
chairman
wheeler
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman.
Basically,
this
is
the
wrap-up
for
the
Will
County
PBC,
well
County
and
Kankakee
County
agreement.
This
ends
that
agreement
officially
the
Wolfe
County
Board,
has
done
their
part
of
this.
We
it's
a
separate
issue
than
what
we
did
last
month
at
the
full
board.
That
was
the
new
agreement.
This
ties
up
all
the
loose
ends
and
allows
for
the
final
distribution
of
all
the
monies
that
are
involved.
J
So
it's
really
it's
the
exact
same
thing
that
we
did
when
we
extracted
from
the
the
building
fund
or
the
maintenance
fund
up
there.
Two
years
ago,
roughly
it's
it's
the
same
language,
the
same
type
of
resolution,
it's
just
dot
the
I's
and
crosses
at
E.
It's
nothing
new
in
there
that
that
you
know
is
binding
us
to
anything.
It
just
ends
that
agreed.
G
If
I
may
add
from
the
original
bond
bond
agreement
and
intergovernmental
agreements
that
will
County
BBC
was
also
involved
with
the
building
and
that
whole
process
and
some
of
those
funds
were
reserved
for
capital
improvements,
and
this
not
only
ends
that
agreement,
but
approximately
what
we
know
right
now
about
225,000
it'll
they'll
come
back
and
that'll
have
to
be
reserved
for
capital
improvement
on
our
end,
but
that
the
whole.
This
is
the
final
step
of
dissolving
the
entire
original
resolution.
G
B
N
C
A
G
All
right,
then,
the
final
item,
the
purchase
of
a
new
copier
printer
and
a
request
for
a
proposal.
This
is
for
the
finance
department.
The
reason
we're
going
to
do
an
RFP
is
because
the
workforce
board
has
agreed
to
split
this
potential
purchase
and
they
have
agreed
and
now
I'm
bringing
it
to
your
attention.
I,
don't
know
if
some
of
you
noticed
some
of
the
printouts
that
you
are
looking
at
and
that's
done
with
a
I
knew
I'm
going
to
lose
it
right
now.
G
The
toner
thank
you
that
goes
in
that's
about
a
week
and
a
half
old
and
it
looked
like
the
toners
wore
out
so
that
the
printer
is
10-hour
printer,
copiers,
10
years
old,
and
it's
not
capable
of
doing
report
level
copies
any
longer.
We've
had
largely
went
out
looking
at
it
numerous
times.
This
orders
stopped
work
and
the
stapler
stopped
working,
so
it
can
basically
function
if
the
department
needs
it
as
a
backup,
but
we're
talking
about
approximately
$3,000
as
part
of
our
split
and
we're.
G
Basically
looking
for
permission
from
the
Finance
Committee
to
to
start
that
RFP,
if
you're,
an
agreement
to
split
the
cost.
With
the
workforce
board
and
the
reason
we
have
to
do,
an
RFP
is
we've
been
part
of
the
fiscal
policy
and
procedure
change
that
we
did
last
month,
federal
because
it's
partially
federal
funding,
there's
there's
a
big
procedure
that
is
required,
so
it'll
take
a
little
bit
longer
to
do
it's.
You
know
it's
not
a
lot
of
money,
but
it
is
an
expenditure
or
so
we're.
G
B
O
All
right,
the
monthly
update,
as
you
saw
earlier,
our
ice
numbers
are
staying,
steady,
which
we
anticipate
not
changing
anytime
soon,
things
are
going
fairly
well,
our
staff
is
is
doing
a
great
job
and
ice
is
very
appreciative
of
the
work
they
do
and
we
have
been
approached
to
house
more
ice.
However,
weren't
able
to
we've
been
approached
to
house
additional
US
Marshals
inmates
and
unfortunately,
we
are
unable
to.
O
We
continue
to
reach
out
to
anyone
who
will
listen
in
DC
about
finishing
our
phase,
3
in
no
way
shape
or
form
do
I,
personally
or
and
I
think
this
board
will
agree.
Do
we
want
to
look
at
doing
phase
3
ourselves
and
if
things
happen
to
go
south,
we
then
burden
our
local
taxpayers
with
the
cost
of
a
finished
shell
that
is
empty.
O
So
I
think
it
would
be
bad
business
for
us
to
to
look
at
that
option,
but
I
think
it's
good
business
to
look
at
other
entities
who
may
need
that
area
and
if
they
want
to
finish
it
I
am
available
24/7.
So
you
saw
the
numbers
through
May
if
through
May
31st,
we
are
up
over
$900,000
from
where
we
were
at
this
time.
Last
year,
we're
averaging
eight
hundred
and
thirty
eight
thousand
dollars
per
month
or
there
abouts
I,
actually
think
that
our
numbers
and
Steve's
numbers
are
actually
fairly
close.
O
So
that's
a
good
thing
projected
out
to
be
just
slightly
over
10
million
for
the
year
and
that
eight
hundred
thirty
eight
thousand
equates
out
to
twenty
seven
thousand
nine
hundred
and
forty
eight
her
forty
five
dollars
per
day
average
for
erotic
County.
It
means
an
detainees
on
our
staffing
levels
are
full-time.
Correctional
officers
are
at
one
hundred
twenty
nine.
We
have
ten
part-time
officers
which
do
help
with
days
off
and
vacations
and
helping
our
full
timers
get
a
day
off
that
they
obviously
deserve.
O
We
have
one
on
light
duty,
which
is
a
work
comp
case.
We
have
two
off
on
medical
leave
under
FMLA
and
we
have
another
one
off
on
work
comp
and
then
we
have
at
this
time
we
have
no
one
who
is
deployed
overseas
through
the
military,
so
we
have
had
those
in
the
past.
Everybody
is
back
at
this
point
not
to
say
that
won't
change
by
the
end
of
the
year.
Some
of
the
some
of
our
military
personnel
are
getting
deployed.
So
we
obviously
will
monitor
that
as
well.
O
O
Then
in
2016,
in
October
we
started
receiving
ice
and
one
of
the
things
we
had
to
do
was
ramped
up
our
staff
back
up
to
where
we
were
able
to
adequately
do
our
jobs
not
only
for
our
local
inmates
but
for
ice
detainees
for
the
US
Marshals.
So
as
part
of
that
ramping
up
that
cost
us
overtime,
because
we
did
not
have
the
trained
staff
that
we
had
back
in
2014,
2013,
etc.
O
So
if
you
go,
if
you
go
strictly
by
numbers
and
remember
as
part
of
that
ramping
up,
we
also
had
all
the
new
hires
had
to
go
a
mandatory
five
week
training.
So
as
we
hired
new
employees,
we
would
be
paying
them,
they
would
be
gone
for
five
weeks
and
then
we
would
back
fill
them
with
overtime.
So
this
wasn't
an
issue
of
just
willy-nilly
overtime.
This
was
an
issue
of
backfilling
spots
that
were
vital
to
us
continuing
this
program
so
in
in
just
raw
numbers
and
and
I'll
go
I'll.
O
Give
you
two
different
sets
of
numbers
here,
our
actual
overtime
over
the
course
of
four
years
from
2014
through
2017
was
four
million
one
hundred
thirty
one
thousand
dollars.
The
credit
that
we
received
in
that
overtime
line
item
was
six
hundred
ninety
two
thousand
dollars.
So
almost
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
came
back
to
the
county
in
reimbursements
through
salary
reimbursement,
so
that
brings
our
overtime
cost
in
those
four
years,
the
three
million
four
hundred
thirty
eight
thousand
dollars,
or
approximately
eight
hundred
and
fifty
nine
thousand
dollars
average
over
those
four
years.
O
So
if
we
would
have
gone
back
and
said
well,
look,
let's
move
all
that
money
reimbursements!
We
had
to
overtime
line
items
that
changes
everything
significantly.
That
means
that
our
net
overtime
over
those
four
years
was
only
only
2.2
million
dollars
or
an
average
of
the
total
cost
from
14
through
17.
The
total
cost
was
1.8
million
dollars
for
an
average
of
four
hundred
and
fifty
eight
thousand
dollars
a
year,
and
that's
about
where
we're
projected
to
be
this
year
right
if
they
had
four
hundred
and
fifty
eight
thousand
dollar
mark.
O
So
we've
got
a
little
bit
of
grasp
on
it.
Like
I
said
we
can't
control
some
of
the
things
that
happen.
We
can't
record.
We
can't
control
court
calls.
We
can't
control
medical
transports
even
our
local
inmates,
because
those
are
the
ones
that
we
are
primarily
responsible
for,
so
just
to
give
you
an
idea
where
that
overtime
is
and
and
and
when
people
say
that
the
overtime
is
preventing
us
from
hiring
deputies.
I
think
is,
is
a
misstatement
and
not
very
truthful.
O
O
I
have
working
I,
can't
take
half
of
them
and
go
train
them
because
we
still
have
a
jail
to
run,
so
that
is
strictly
overtime,
but
it
is
strictly
related
to
ice,
there's
other
over
times
that
sometimes
we
can
do
on
or
there's
other
trainings
that
we
can
do
on
shift.
It
doesn't
cost
us
overtime
and
there's
other
trainings
that
that
we
do
maybe
last
day
or
two
that
that
sometimes
do
cost
is
overtime.
O
My
suggestion
is
to
make
this
may
be
simpler
for
everybody
there's
to
create
an
additional
line
item
under
overtime
for
strictly
ice,
so
that
we
get
a
better
idea
of
what
ice
is
costing
us
so
that
we
know,
because
that's
I,
think
what
we
want
to
do.
I
think
that's
what
everybody
wants
to
do.
I
mean
we
want.
O
Our
staff
has
worked
too
hard
now,
if
that's
the
board's
preference,
you
know
just
say
the
word,
and
but
we
want
to
separate
the
overtime
strictly
for
ice
overtime
to
get
a
better
handle
on
it.
So
something
I
don't
know.
If
we
need
a
motion
for
that
or
I
know,
we
can't
do
it
cuz
it's
not
in
the
agenda,
but
something
to
certainly
consider,
maybe
even
for
next
year,
whether
we
do
it
this
year,
not.
J
Wheeler
Thank
You
mr.
chairman
I,
think
it's
personally.
It's
a
great
idea
to
be
able
to
isolate
not
just
overtime
but
capital
expenditures.
Everything
else
that
is
related
to
yeah,
I
would
say
ice,
and
maybe
you
may
want
marshals
I,
don't
know
if
they
have
made
any
special
requests
in
there,
but
you
may
put
that
in
the
same
bucket
we.
J
Them
yeah
a
transport
them,
but
you
know
I,
don't
see
any
capital
expenditures,
let's
say
if
we
have
to
do
a
fence
if
we
have
to
do
a
rec
area
right,
it'd
be
nice
to
have
that
segregated
within
whether
it's
in
in
capital
corrections
or
something
allowance.
You
know
something
along
those
lines.
I've
actually
talked
to
Steve
about
that
in
the
past,
so
maybe
that's
something
we
could
go
offline
with
and
work
out
what
those
need
to
be
within
the
ledger
yeah.
So
we
can
better
account
for
that
if
anybody
else
feels
the
same
way.
J
I
Surage,
thank
you.
Thank
You,
mr.
chairman
sheriff
I
I
would
like
to
commend
the
corrections
staff,
for
you
know
the
numbers
that
they
brought
in
in
May
in
the
overtime
num.
Your
overtime
numbers
are
down
throughout
the
course
of
through
16,
for
what
the
graph
shows.
So
you
guys
are
working
meaner
and
leaner,
I
I
would
say,
and
it
is
well
appreciated
by
the
rest
of
this
County
I
know
you
feel
sometimes
like
you're
a
little
Tommy
Tucker
but
you're
not
today,
I,
don't
and
I
said
it
before
you
did
so.
I
I
C
Stenberg
Thank
You,
chairman
I,
think
that's
a
great
idea
to
lie
another
line
item
for
that
I'd
be
in
favor
of
that
100%
because
it's
always
been
tough
for
us
to
get
a
handle
on
exactly
how
much
money
we're
making
on
this
deal.
I
wonder:
have
you
ever
got
a
price
on
finishing
out
the
third
part
and
what.
O
Number
we
tell
people
because
back
when
we
first
built
that-
and
it
was
there-
I
mean
the
cost-
was
about
fifteen
million
I'm
guessing
all
the
all
the
conversations
I've
had
with
people
that
would
remotely
be
interested,
I,
say
anywhere
from
twenty
to
twenty
five
million.
But
that's
again,
that's
a
non
handyman
non
architect.
C
O
O
K
N
K
O
It
you
know,
and
there's
some
I
mean,
there's
a
there's,
a
fine
line,
I
think
when
you
start
getting
into
overtime
cost
as
opposed
to
time
and
a
half
versus
paying
benefits,
and
so
you
you
try
to
factor
that
number
in,
because
full-time
employees
are
gonna
more
than
likely.
Although
a
lot
of
our
younger
people
are
still
must
be
on
their
parent's
insurance,
because,
although
most
of
our
young
people
are
do
not
take
the
benefits,
we.
K
O
P
Thank
You
mr.
chairman
I,
think
we
discussed
sometime
back
on
the
issue
of
overtime.
I,
wouldn't
probably
nobody
crowd.
I
did
bring
that
up
and
I
believe
that
I
said
analysis
should
be
done
to
determine
after
considering
all
cost.
What
would
be
the
benefit
of
hiring
additional
individuals
because
the
highest
program
came
to
us
and
at
the
start
it
would
have
been.
P
It
was
not
feasible
for
us
to
just
go
in
and
kind
of
do
that,
because
we
need
to
get
kind
of
kind
of
got
settled
a
little
bit,
but
I
do
think
that
and
I
think
I
stated
before
that.
At
some
point
we
need
to
look
at
one.
How
much
will
the
addition
no
facility
that
we
have
this
son,
that's
unprepared
at
this
time?
What
that
will
cost?
What
would
it
house
and
what
would
be
the
benefit
of
now
opening
it
easy?
O
Always
out
there
looking
for
grants,
though
again
I
would
much
I
would
feel
much
more
comfortable
with
some
outside
entity,
even
if
it's
private
investors,
rather
than
the
county
being
on
the
hook
for
something
that
we
can't
pay
for
I.
Just
think.
That's
that's
bad
business
I!
Think
if
we
do
it
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
two
years
from
now,
four
years
from
now
six
years
from
now
it's
gone,
and
then
you
have
a
big
empty
shell
that
we're
still
paying
on
so.
O
We
are
still
responsible
for
our
local
inmates,
regardless
of
if
we
have
dime
one
coming
in
in
revenue,
so
the
estimated
expense
in
2018
and
we're
estimating
from
obviously
December
1st
through
November
30th
of
this
year
is
seventeen
million
two
hundred
ninety
five
dollars.
Now.
What
does
that
include?
It
includes
our
direct
jail
cost,
which
is
our
budget.
O
O
It
includes
our
liability
insurance,
which
we
know
is
somewhat
close
to
a
million
dollars
a
year,
and
it
includes
staff
benefits
everything,
including
IMR,
F,
FICA,
unemployment,
workmen's,
comp
and
insurance.
We
have
all
those
numbers
broken
out
for
each
employee.
We
have
at
the
jail
so
seventeen
thousand
two
hundred.
Ninety
five
is
the
total
cost.
Right
now,
with
everything,
17
million
I
did
well
millions,
thousands,
it's
all
17
million
I
apologize
yeah.
That
would
be
wouldn't
that
be
great.
O
So
the
estimated
local
cost
in
2018
is
11
million,
seven
hundred
eighty
six
thousand
or
close
to
100
or
133
dollars
a
day
per
inmate.
The
estimated
out-of-county
cost
is
5.5
million
dollars
or
43
dollars
per
inmate.
So
obviously
we
House
are
out
of
counties
for
significantly
less
than
we
house
our
locals.
So
what
does
that
all
mean?
O
So
why
do
I
tell
you
that,
because
I
am
looking
at
our
patrol
side
and
I'm
here
today
to
ask
you
to
consider
adding
deputies
to
our
staff
in
December
2014?
Some
of
you
may
remember
that
we
were
forced
to
lay
off
15
deputies.
At
that
time
we
had
58
after
we
laid
off
15.
We
were
down
to
43
it's
now
June
of
2018
and
we're
still
at
43.
O
O
O
The
county
was
funding
more
deputies
back
in
1986
than
they
are
today,
I'm,
requesting
the
day
that
this
board
make
a
commitment
to
fund
43
deputies.
That
would
mean
a
commitment
of
adding
12
I'm,
not
asking
that
we
add
them
all
in
this
fiscal
year.
But
I
would
like
to
add
for
this
year
for
next
year
and
for
the
following
year.
O
Today
we
are
a
reactive,
Police
Department.
What
that
means
is
when
somebody
calls
we
react,
proactive
policing,
we
are
not.
We
are
not
out
there
doing
proactive
things
trying
to
prevent
crime.
Trying
to
prevent
people
from
getting
in
trouble.
We
are
not
proactive.
Policing
can
prevent
crimes
before
they
happen.
We
do
not
do
that
here.
O
Reactive
policing
is
simply
responding,
call
to
call
which
is
what
we
do.
Something
happens
to
somebody
somebody
calls
we
respond,
that's
reactive,
policing,
our
immediate
needs
in
fiscal
year
18
and
by
the
way,
by
the
time
we
hire
somebody
in
fiscal
year,
18
it's
going
to
be
October
November,
so
the
cost
and
fiscal
18
would
be
minimal.
I
would
like
to
add
one
deputy
strictly
to
serve
papers.
Both
our
afternoon
shift
and
day
shift.
O
Their
main
function
right
now
is
serving
papers
they're
serving
papers
when
they
come
in,
as
calls
come
in
they
get
away
from
serving
papers
and
respond
to
calls
I
would
like
to
assign
one
deputy
assigned
to
a
traffic
unit.
We
need
to
slow
people
down
in
this
county
and
create
people
are
crazy
and
we
see
it
all
the
time
and
how
many
accidents
possibly
could
be
avoided.
O
If
we'd
have
more
people
out
there,
slowing
traffic
down
and
two
additional
deputies
assigned
to
patrol
the
4
and
19
in
the
4
and
20,
we
can
certainly
discuss
later,
but
obviously
immediately
we'd
like
to
get
for
now.
How
do
we
pay
for
this
I
know?
That's
always
the
question
I
think
the
board
should
consider
the
4.5
million
were
saving
taxpayers
by
housing
out
of
County
inmates.
The
approximate
cost
of
a
new
deputy
is
between
75
and
80
thousand
dollars
by
the
time
you
factor,
salary
and
benefits
and
training.
O
This
year,
obviously,
the
four
would
be
minimal
cost
because
it
wouldn't
happen
until
probably
October
November,
so
that
would
get
us
into
fiscal
year.
Nineteen,
so
the
cost
for
8
in
fiscal
year.
Nineteen
would
be
six
hundred
and
forty
thousand
dollars
in
fiscal
year.
Twenty
the
cost
for
ten
would
be
approximately
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
fiscal
year.
Nineteen,
the
six
hundred
forty
thousand
dollar
number,
would
amount
to
fourteen
percent
of
what
we're
saving
taxpayers
annually
and
that
amount
that
$800,000
cost
in
fiscal
year.
Twenty
to
eighteen
percent
of
what
we
save
taxpayers
annually.
O
Some
things
to
consider.
We
have
all
heard
about
the
opioid
problem:
every
municipality
has
it
every
county?
Has
it
every
state?
Has
it
the
entire
nation?
Has
it
we,
as
a
county,
have
done
nothing
to
combat
this
problem?
Yeah
we
got
a
grant.
The
coroner
I
know
Eric's.
Here
the
coroner
has
done
outstanding
work
in
getting
money
for
education
he's
been
out.
He
is
educating
people.
O
O
We
aren't
able
to
schedule
crime,
we
have
no
there.
There
is
no
time
frame.
Yeah,
you
see
all
these
numbers
where
crime
happens
at
this
time
of
the
day.
On
this
day
you
know
those
are
just
averages.
Those
aren't
fact
they
happen
any
time
any
day
and-
and
you
know,
there's
just
nothing
that
we
can
do
to
to
combat
that
remember
in
2014
will
be
laid-off
deputies
and
correctional
officers.
O
I
I
N
B
K
O
Q
K
K
Q
O
P
A
point
I
know,
you're
gonna
see,
is
gonna,
bring
it
back
to
the
criminal
justice
committee,
but
I
think
it
was
it.
The
foundation
of
his
concern
is
going
to
make
us
bounce
it
back
to
the
Finance
Committee
I'm
thinking,
if
I'm
listen
to
your
numbers,
that
we,
if,
if,
if
it's
between
I
guess
80,000
for
deputies,
we
somewhere
around
the
neighborhood
of
twenty
three
hundred
twenty
thousand
dollars
out
of
a
4.5
million
out
of
savings.
What
you're
saying
so?
P
What
you're
saying
is
and
then
you're
saying
that
we
will
take
it
in
baby
steps
billing
in
thirds
as
far
as
hiring
and
then
that
will
be
all
through
the
year,
which
I
don't
think
is
nowhere
near
unreasonable.
I
do
believe
that
we
do
have
to
beef
up
the
Sheriff
Department
up
on
the
streets
because
they
are
flying
through
long.
As
you
don't
give
me
a
ticket
you're
fine,
but
they're
going
and
there's
deaths
that
have
happened
in
our
County.
P
P
The
Finance
Committee,
because
you
brought
it
here,
should
look
at
the
hard
core
numbers
or
whatever
and
see
if
those
numbers
are
feasible
before
you
bring
it
back
to
us
and
then
in
the
criminal
justice
committee,
so
that
we
can
determine
how
soon
that
we
can
basically
move
forward
and
not
procrastinate.
The
issue.
N
O
O
Both
jails
passed
with
no
non-compliance
issues,
certainly
something
for
our
staff
to
be
very
proud
of,
and
the
report
is
actually
on
file
in
the
county
clerk's
office,
so
both
jails,
none,
no
non-compliance
issues
and
again,
after
all,
the
ice
inspections
that
we've
had
we
are
far
and
we
far
and
above
exceed
Illinois
County
Jail
standards.
So
that's
all
I
got
okay.

The
burden
of
proof
is
not
on
the
auditor's
office
is
on
the
individuals
who
spent
the
money,
and
we
do
our
analysis
and
we
provide
that
feedback,
and
so
it's
the
pleasure
of
the
board
with
whether
or
not
you
allow
it.
It
was
charged
to
a
credit
card.
So
it's
already
paid,
for
it
is
not
a
reimbursement
that
we
would
issue
a
check
for
because
in
those
cases
generally,
what's
not
allowable
isn't
reimbursed,
but
with
a
credit
card
expense.
Then
you
really
have
no
control
over
that.
E
So
anyway,
you
have
the
details
and
that's
that's
the
claim
issue
that
we
have
there
with
the
circuit.
Clerk's
2017
on
it.
I
guess
I
would
just
get
into
that.
I
did
want
to
point
out
that
I
have
not
seen
the
audit
report
that
was
conducted
this
past
year
or
the
year
for
that
matter
or
2016
s
report,
but
I
do
have
the
report
as
of
the
year-end
at
November,
30th,
2015
and
I
just
want
to
read
into
your
hearing
and
audit
finding
that
was
in
2015
condition.
E
There
is
a
lack
of
segregation
of
duties
in
the
bookkeeping
function
and
they're
inadequate
checks
and
balances
to
mitigate
the
lack
of
segregation
of
duties.
Context.
A
bookkeeper
has
the
ability
to
prepare
deposits
performed
daily,
balancing
procedures,
prepare
checks
for
signature,
override
information,
automated
system
and
prepare
monthly
bank
reconciliations
and
financial
reports
recommend
and
I'm
gonna
skip
down
a
little
bit
to
the
recommendation.
Consider
having
management
or
someone
outside
of
the
department
regularly
review
bank
reconciliations,
monthly,
closings
and
daily
balancing
procedures
and
document.
E
Such
review
management
responds
due
to
limited
resources
outside
the
department
management,
will
perform.
Reviews
of
bank
reconciliations,
closing
procedures
and
daily
balancing
procedures
beginning
in
May,
2016
I
read
that
because
there
have
been
comments
out
there
that
somehow
this
audit
finding
is
my
fault
and
the
result
of
me
not
doing
my
job
basically
and
I
will
say
that
this
audit
finding
has
been
there
for
at
least
three
years,
including
last
year.
E
So
a
few
things
I
want
to
point
out
about
an
audit
finding
an
audit
finding
is
simply
the
outside
auditors
finding
an
area
where
the
process
over
internal
controls
can
be
strengthened
in
the
armor.
If
you
will,
the
important
thing
are
the
most
important
thing
regarding
and
independent
audits
report
is
the
auditors
opinion.
There
are
basically
four
types
of
opinions:
there's
the
unmodified,
unqualified
opinion,
which
we
informally
call
a
clean
audit,
and
that
is
what
the
circuit
clerk
and
the
county
has
received
for
some
time.
There
is
the
modified
opinion
where
the
auditor
will
say.
E
There
is
the
disclaimer
opinion,
which
is
where
the
auditor
cannot
substantiate,
can
I
gather
enough
evidence
in
order
to
opine
on
the
financial
statement,
and
so
they
will
give
a
disclaimer
because
they
were
not
able
to
satisfy
themselves
to
give
a
clean
audit
opinion
and
then
finally,
there's
what's
called
the
adverse
opinion,
which
is
when
the
financial
statements
are
materially
misstated
and
the
auditor
will
opine
as
such.
That
is
obviously
one
that
you
want
to
stay
away
from
and
I.
E
Don't
know
that
we've
ever
received
that
in
this
county,
but
I
will
say
that
when
it
comes
to
the
audit,
the
independent
auditors
report,
the
opinion
is,
what
is
the
most
important
thing?
It's
not
to
say
that
findings
shouldn't
be
addressed
and
shouldn't
be
followed
up
on
and
there
shouldn't
be
processes
and
procedures
put
in
place,
but
that
is
not
what's
going
to
jeopardize
grants
what's
going
to
jeopardize
any
of
the
other
significant
investments
and
so
forth
in
the
county.
E
It's
that
audit
opinion
that
will
jeopardize
those
kinds
of
things
or,
if,
in
the
emphasis
of
matter,
paragraph
there's
going
concern
language
that
will
negatively
impact
that
so
I
did
want
to
point
out
some
of
those
things
as
well
as
it
relates
to
that.
My
intent.
Now
is
the
same
as
my
intent
then,
and
that
is
we
want
to
provide
those
services
of
auditing
a
bank
reconciliation
for
the
circuit
clerk
and
for
other
departments
who
conduct
them.
The
problem
is
that
these
the
auditor's
office
has
been
gutted.
E
It
has
been
devoid
of
resources,
powers,
functions
and
authorities
have
been
altered
and
there
is
the
elected
official
and
one
employee,
the
only
elected
office
in
this
county.
That
is
in
that
situation
the
only
one.
So
we
have
to
prioritize
with
the
resources
that
we
have
and,
as
an
elected
official
you
know
other
people
don't
get
to
pick
and
choose
how
my
office
functions.
J
E
So
I
expressed
it
a
circuit
clerk,
my
intention,
which
remains
the
same
today,
that
I
hope
to
provide
services
with
auditing
the
reconciliation,
but
again
that
takes
a
backseat
to
other
issues
that
come
up
and
that's
a
result
of
the
staffing
issue
that
we
have
in
our
office
and
the
other
projects
we
have
going
on,
such
as
the
decentralized
bank
account
internal
control
audit
we're
doing
today.
That
is
a
very
significant,
highly
involved
audit
that
we
are
working
on
and
the
circuit
clerk
is
well
aware
of
that.
J
J
Mcclain
County
has
to
LaSalle,
has
three
two
and
a
half
and
Vermillion
very
similar
County,
so
I,
don't
think
we're
that
far
out
of
the
whack
of
what
everybody
else
has
so
I
would
say
that
they're
obviously
able
to
get
to
those
things
on
a
regular
basis,
because
their
circuit
clerk's
office
didn't
have
that
situation
or
any
other
audit
biases
of
those
kind.
So
we
also
ran
the
cost
as
well
per
capita
and
it's
around
tanki
counties
around
$1
the
averages
around
$1
22.
P
Unfortunately,
I
you
reading
about
these
issues
in
the
envy
paper,
but
prior
to
this
I
went
up
to
the
auditor's
office.
I
looked
and
in
the
autos
also
had
a
conversation
with
the
origin.
I.
Also
look
at
your
I.
Looked
at
the
audit,
the
auditor's
report,
not
the
auditor
of
the
county,
but
the
independent
auditor
and
I
noticed
that
there
was
not
a
not
anywhere
in
this
report,
a
finding
concerning
our
internal
auditor.
P
What
I
did
look
at
was
management's
representation
and
then
I
also
looked
at
the
I
listened
to
the
conversation
from
this
Circuit
Clerk
I
do
know
that
they
posted
a
position
for
a
bookkeeper
of
some
sort
in
accounting
to
try
to
handle
the
internal
before
he
gets
to
an
artist,
so
they
can
has
some
something
to
be
able
to
tangibly
present
to
thee
to
an
auditor.
If
that's
what
the
recommendation
was,
let's
put
it
up
on
his
office.
His
office
is
not
responsible
for
any
other
departments
accounting
system.
P
His
job
is
just
to
maintain
and
check
me.
They
thought
well
I
called
the
county
eyes
to
make
sure
that
there
is
nothing,
that's
happening
that
will
probably
cause
alarm
and
I
think
he
does
that
in
his
office.
To
his
credit,
he
has
a
CPA
in
there
a
lady,
that's
quite
well
for
Meteor
eyes
with
the
gap
procedures
in
his
office.
If
he
is
the
only
if
he
is
the
elected
official,
he
only
has
one
employee.
P
P
That
is
meaning,
unfortunately,
there's
a
cloud
of
ambiguity
that
is
out
there
they're
saying
that
he
should
be
doing
something
that
he
shouldn't
and
then
that
something
that
he
should
be
doing
that
he's
being
prohibited
from,
but
to
take
this
circus
into
the
media
by
anybody
I
think
is,
is
is
it's
childish?
We
can
talk
to
each
other
in
the
building.
We
can
call
each
other,
but
to
continue
this
circus.
Where
we're
saying
he's
doing
something
wrong,
he's
an
outright
lie
or
to
basically
state
that
he
should
be
doing
something
that
he
said.
P
I
would
like
to
do,
but
I
just
don't
have
the
manpower
to
do
is
a
mix
mascara
to
mischaracterization
of
his
character
and
I
think
we
need
to
walk
with
some
type
of
integrity
before
we
go
screaming
out
into
the
media,
saying
what
someone
is
not
doing.
I
hope
that
this
is
never
done
again,
but
it
does
that
I'm
going
to
address
it
a
little
stronger,
because
I
thought
that
was
very
unprofessional,
I
think
is
it
was
it's
almost
like
a
political
suicide
attempt
to
do
something
whether
you
say
it
is
or
not.
P
That's
the
public
perception
and
the
cause
that
I'm
getting
from
constituents
from
pastors
and
things
of
nature
saying
what's
happening,
snakes
and
I'm
saying.
Certainly
it's
not
at
that
that
level
he's
doing
his
job
and
if
you
wanted
to
do
it
better,
then
you
find
it
and
put
the
people
up
in
there,
but
don't
take
this
Serkis
out
into
the
street.
That's
just
my
comments
in.
B
E
J
A
J
J
B
I
O
I
The
court
house,
both
their
backup,
doesn't
work
and
the
one
that
they
have
that
they
say
is
working
I,
don't
believe
it's
working
properly
because
my
father
went
in
there
with
a
with
an
artificial
knee
and
he
always
gets
dinged
at
the
airport
and
he
didn't
get
dinged
at
the
courthouse.
So
I
think
we
need
to
try
to
find
out
what
types
of
x-ray
machines
they
they
have
now,
because
I
I
think
technology
has
changed
so
much
that
there
might
be
things
out
there
that
we
can
utilize.
J
O
First
of
all,
I
think
there
needs
to
be
some
clarification
about
x-ray
machine
versus
magnetometer.
The
magnetometer
is
the
thing
that
your
father-in-law
walked
through.
That
is
something
that
we
walked
through
at
the
United
Center
when
we
go
to
a
basketball
game
or
a
hockey
game,
so
that
is
a
standard
santol
walk
through
it.
O
O
Whatever
else
you
carry
that
you
put
through
there,
your
change
coins
and
all
that
slide
through
there
they's
actually
go
around,
but
the
any
bags
or
anything
that
you're
bringing
in
coats
all
go
through
that
like
at
the
airport.
So
the
magnetometer
is
the
big
tall
thing
that
we
want
through
the
x-ray
machine
is
what
our
deputies
taking
slide
bags
and
things
like
that
through.
O
B
O
24,000
for
98
for
a
new
x-ray
machine,
which
is
the
thing
we
put
the
bags
through
six
thousand
seven
hundred
and
seventy
five
dollars
to
fix
the
current
one
or
the
backup
one.
So
we
we
would
like
to
buy
the
new
one
fix
the
backup,
because
when
those
things
go
down,
then
we
have
to
put
another
deputy
up
there
to
start
searching
everybody
coming
in.
O
K
I
B
F
B
O
Couple
things
that
I
think
you
should
consider
before
we
put
this
out
to
bid
I,
don't
even
know
what
company
were
we're
dealing
with
it's
the
same
company
that
has
provided
the
same
one
in
the
courthouse
since
we've
been
doing
it.
It
is
somewhat
of
an
emergency,
because
if
this
thing
goes
down,
were
you
know
back
to
hand
to
hand
winding
hand,
checking
everything
it's
going
to
cost
us
over
time.
The
met
the
x-ray
machine
is
under
the
$25,000,
which
I
think
is
our
limit
to
send
something
out
to
bid.
R
B
D
D
I
B
R
K
A
D
J
J
They've
had
situations
where
people
have
had
weapons
on
them
in
the
probation
visit
guns,
knives,
box,
cutters,
etc.
The
only
time
they
find
him
is
when
they're
putting
the
cuffs
on
him.
So
you
don't
really
know
what's
going
in
there
other
than
that,
there's
been
situations
where
people
have
been
entering
the
building
and
using
the
first
floor
washroom
as
a
shower.
J
They
walk
in
two
naked
people
standing
there
in
the
bathroom.
So
that's
it's
not
it's
not
a
good
situation.
So
it's
the
request,
but
this
was
maybe
five
months
ago
was
to
start
to
analyze
these
costs.
There
is
a
HR
cost
as
well
that
we
can
talk
about
at
the
end
of
this,
but
Tom
inserted.
The
cost
of
the
glass
removal
maintenance.
West,
looked
on
this
Wes
Andrews
to
redo
the
door,
$5,600
or
5635
to
redo
the
door.
The
magnetometer
is
three
thousand
four
hundred
seventy
nine
dollars,
I'm,
not
sure
why
the
other
one.
J
Let
me
do
reserve
that
later
I
think
I'm
lowered
in
this
week
on
that
3479
for
the
magnetometer,
the
electrical
work
fifteen
hundred
and
then
the
installation
of
the
foam
and
phone
in
the
inter
comment
is
going
to
be
eighteen.
Twenty
three
sixty
four
total
cost.
Twelve
thousand
four
hundred
thirty
seven
sixty
four
for
the
project
to
make
sure
that
people
that
come
into
the
building
are
clean,
so
to
speak.
So
I
think
that
is
probably
and
then
we
have
to
discuss.
How
are
they
going
to
have
somebody?
J
O
B
B
M
No,
that's,
obviously
not
my
area,
it
is
the
sheriff's
area
I'm
only
going
by
comparisons
when
I
enter
other
buildings.
I
have
I'd
you
in
my
head,
maybe
that'd
be
was
wrong.
So
that's
why,
in
that
letter
refers
to
the
sheriff,
what
he
did
thinks
is
appropriate
refers
to
it
a
couple
different
times:
I've
spoken
to
the
sheriff,
but
obviously
to
get
this
going
the
right
way,
so
he
and
Chairman
whoever
needs
to
sit
down,
and
you
know,
put
a
plan
together
going
forward.
R
I
Think
the
sheriff
doesn't
have
the
manpower
to
put
and
I
think
that's
pretty
much
obvious.
The
sheriff
doesn't
have
the
manpower
to
stick
the
deputy
at
probation
for
the
hours
because
he
doesn't
have
the
manpower
to
do
his
normal
gig.
So
I
think
that
all
that's
all
tied
into
this
big
ball.
In
my
opinion,.
R
R
J
Wheeler
would
would
a
compromise
be
to
authorize
the
expenditure
of
the
stay
not
to
exceed
$13,000,
pending
that
it
fits
into
the
security
plan
that
the
sheriff
approves,
and
then
we
come
back
and
if
he
discusses
a
staffing
and
another
lead
person
needs
to
be
added
to
the
rotation
they
can't
be
handled
independently.
It's
just
action
won't
need
to
happen
until
that
point.
So
I
just
wondering
if
that
is.
I
B
G
I
S
Good
morning,
thank
you.
Each
year
we
buy
about
80
to
$100,000
worth
of
traffic
paint
to
do
our
striping
on
our
on
our
highways.
We
normally
go
through.
Cms
CMS
makes
a
request
to
us
to
give
them
our
quantity.
In
November
we
sent
that
document
in.
We
were
trying
to
find
out
what
the
price
was
going
to
be
and
who
was
to
be
awarded
and
that
information
was
not
on
the
site.
We
ended
up
calling
CMS
and
they
did
not
let
the
paint
contract
in
time.
S
So
on
June
14th
I
was
informed
that
the
locals
are
on
their
own.
We
have
to
figure
out
how
to
obtain
paint,
they
did
have
their
letting
and
the
low
bidder
was
declared
non-responsive.
So
there
is
a
protest,
so
the
contract
probably
is
not
gonna
get
awarded
to
August.
We
need
I
did
purchase
about
20,000
dollars
worth
of
paint
to
get
us
started,
because
we
have
to
get
this
done
in
a
timely
manner
with
that
award
being
in
August.
S
That's
not
going
to
work
for
us
so
I'm
requesting
this
to
be
an
emergency
purchase
which,
according
to
the
statute,
if
the
county
board
deems
an
emergency,
we
can
go
ahead
and
do
it.
I
pay
for
this
out
of
motor
fuel
tax,
I
gotta
prove
that
motor
fuel
tax
authorization
back
in
January
I
did
contact
the
district
and
they
are
in
concurrence
that
it
would
be
an
emergency
purchase,
need.
N
A
B
J
Mr.
chairman,
the
just
for
sake
of
introduction
who
people
who
aren't
on
pza,
this
position
would
is
funded
by
an
MPO
grant,
something
we've
gotten
for
those
part
of
pza
better
than
25
years
or
so.
However,
long
it's
been,
it's
been
forever.
We've
had
that
grant.
This
was
an
unused
portion
of
that
in
discussions
with
both
CSL
bearing
the
mayors
of
Bradley
bourbon,
a
economic
development.
J
You
know
mayor
Nugent
as
president
CEO,
the
Alliance,
the
CSL
and
other
businesses
have
transportation
issues
surrounding
their
expansions,
and
in
this
juncture
the
main
problem
we
have
is
is
communicating
between
all
of
the
mayor's
the
county.
Who
is
the
lead
because
CSL
is
in
the
county
and
I
dot
the
route
50
corridor
up
by
new
core
all
of
the
transportation
stuff
that's
going
on.
It
requires
a
full-time
person
to
coordinate
all
of
these
projects
between
what
the
company
is
asking
for.
J
What
IDOT
needs
to
have
happen,
the
MPO
all
the
mayors
and
the
county
and
the
planning
department.
So
in
in
a
moment
of
agreement
which
is
rare
between
all
mayor's
in
the
county,
we
all
agreed
that
this
would
be
a
good
way
to
go
about
making
sure
that
businesses
have
the
infrastructure
they
need
to
expand.
As
far
as
transportation
goes,
so
the
Enterprise
Zone
agreed
to
fund
above
what
is
up
to
$30,000
above
what
is
necessary
for
this
position,
and
the
county's
stake
in
it
is
the
the
benefits.
J
That's
all
we
are
paying
out
of
the
county
is
the
benefits
for
this
position.
They
would
be
a
county
employee
as
such,
they
would
have
to
be
approved
by
this
committee
and
the
full
board
as
part
of
the
economic
alliance
agreement.
So
their
office
would
be
here
at
the
county.
They
would
do
have
planning
responsibilities
with
transportation,
but
also
act
as
this
really
high-level
coordinator
for
it.
J
You
know
I
Fong,
as
the
grant
is
available.
Basically,
this
is
how
long
we
seize
this
to
see
this
happening,
because
this
expansion
is
at
least
10
years
and,
as
I
said
to
the
other
mayors
and
they
agree
thee.
We
don't
want
lack
of
dedication
and
a
point
person
on
this
to
be
a
reason
why
this
doesn't
become
everything
that
it
could
be.
So
that
is
any.
P
Creation
of
this
transportation,
economic
development
project
I
believe
it
stated,
is
gonna
be
grant
funded,
hopefully
in
the
language
it
sunsets.
If
the
grant
is
once
the
grant
sunsets
that
way,
we're
not
stuck
with
an
employee
and
I'm
sure,
that's
probably
gonna
be
in
there.
I
don't
know
I
know
you
say
high
level,
but
at
some
point
is
there
a
specific
job
description
in
place
so
that
we
can
better
understand
it?
I'm
not
saying
don't.
I
mean
I'm
against
it
being
done.
P
I'm
just
saying
that
before
you
said,
County
Board
for
County
Board
I
need
to
know
kind
of
having
ideas.
You
can
just
sent
it
to
me
via
email
as
to
what
this
encompasses
or
what
duties
is
incorporated
that
benefits
the
county
as
a
whole,
as
well
as
all
these
mayor's
who
we
have
attached
themselves
to
it.
I
think
she's
bring
me
one
now.
J
A
B
B
B
B
These
are
items
carried
over
from
the
cancelled
executive
meeting.
We
have
appointments
in
reappointments.
We
need
a
motion
to
reappoint
mel
Blanche
adds
to
the
Ethics
Commission
and
reappoint
mr.
Acton
Tito
MD
to
the
keiki
County
Board
of
Health
mr.
suroz,
with
a
motion,
mr.
Payton,
with
a
second
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye.
All
opposed,
like
same
motion
carries.
B
J
To
do
this
before
I
know,
everybody
wants
to
get
out
of
here,
but
it
came
up.
So
I
was
gonna,
actually
wait
until
the
full
board
to
bring
this
up,
but
I
wanna
CLE
got
a
email
from
Edgar
County
watchdogs,
demanding
that
we
end
our
practice
for
flowers
for
board
members,
immediate
relatives
so
now
I
kind
of
see
how
that
situation
evolved
by
the
prior
comments
made
today.
J
So
we
as
a
board,
we
don't
have
an
official
ordinance
that
I
can
find
that
I
do
remember
coming
up
into
discussion
that
we
had
had
a
policy
that
it
didn't
go
over
$40
and
anything
over.
That
was
to
be
reimbursed
because
it's
hard
to
find
an
arrangement
for
40
bucks,
and
so
we
had
done
that.
Specifically,
they
had
brought
up
some
board
members
names
and
immediate
relatives
that
had
passed
recently.
J
A
couple
are
in
the
room
now
and
so
I
was
going
to
ask
the
full
board
as
an
agenda
item
if
they
wanted
to
continue
this
practice.
There
are
many
other
departments
who
have
this
practice
as
well,
that
are
not
limited
to
$40,
but
for
some
reason
it
was
just
the
county
board.
Who's
pulling
under
the
microscope
makes
sense,
but
then
I
just
thought
I
would
mention
to
the
Finance
Committee.
J
It's
not
an
agenda
item,
but
I
would
like
to
think
that
we
should
address
that
either
at
executive
committee
or
finance
and
as
a
head
nod
to
see.
If
we
want
to
continue
that
practice
or
the
Edgar
County
watchdogs
recommended,
we
ended
all
together.
So
I
just
say:
I'm
not
looking
for
a
boat,
but
if
you
would
like
it
to
go
to
back
to
another
committee,
that
would
be.
