THAT'S ALL I HAVE. YOU'RE HERE. THANK YOU. JOHN, CAN YOU GIVE ME AN UPDATE ON THE WITH THE ANIMAL SHELTER? THE ANIMAL SHELTER CONTINUE TO HAVE SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES MAINLY. WELL, I'VE ALWAYS DISCUSSED BEFORE WHAT WE CALL THE SHOP DRAWINGS. AND MAINLY THIS TIME IT HAS TO DO WITH THE BARN, THE COLUMN HEIGHT OR APPROXIMATELY TWO FOOT SHORT.THE CONTRACTOR THAT DID NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE AMOUNT OF FILL FOR THAT AREA. AND SO HE'S IN THE PROCESS OF ORDERING NEW COLUMNS FOR THAT. THE FOUNDATION, OF COURSE, HAS ALREADY BEEN FILLED. WE'VE BEEN THE COUNTY HAS BEEN ASSURED THAT THE BOLT PATTERN TO MEET THE NEW COLUMN HEIGHT WILL BE THE SAME. AND THAT'S WHERE WE STAND ON THAT. AND OF COURSE, WE GOT THE CONTRACTOR GOT HELD UP ON A LOT OF RAIN LAST WEEK, SO HE'S UNABLE TO BE ADD ADDITIONAL FILL FOR THE SURROUNDING AREA AND MAINLY FOR THE ANIMAL SHELTER OFFICE. HAS THE BUILDING BEEN ORDERED OR IS IT ON SITE OR WHERE ARE WE AT? NO, THE BUILDING HAS BEEN ORDERED. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE EXACT DELIVERY DATE, BUT I KNOW THAT'S BEEN CLARIFIED OR SQUARED AWAY TO BE ORDERED. ARE WE DOING A JUDICIAL CENTER? JUDICIAL CENTER? THAT ONE THERE.
THE WINDOWS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. THE ROOF IS INSTALLED. THERE'S ABOUT. THEY'RE ABOUT TO COMMENCE FINISHING THE INTERIOR WORK. THE HVAC HAS ALL BEEN INSTALLED. SO THAT'S PROGRESSING SLOWLY BUT STILL LOOKING AT GRAND OPENING. IT'S HARD TO DETERMINE AT THIS TIME AT THIS TIME, BECAUSE THE COUNTY'S REQUESTED PROJECT SCHEDULES AND WE RECEIVED THEM.
BUT IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY WEEK IT CHANGES. THERE'S DELAY AND THINGS LIKE THAT. YES, SIR. CAN WE GET A MEETING SET UP WITH THEM AS FAR AS SO WE CAN GET AN UPDATE, SEE WHERE THEY'RE AT. I HADN'T SEEN OR HEARD OF THEM MUCH. YEAH. WE WE'VE BEEN THE COUNTY'S BEEN WITH ABOUT APPROXIMATELY EVERY TWO WEEKS. I, I'M NOT SURE THIS WEEK, BUT I THINK THE FOLLOWING WEEK WE'RE MEETING WITH THEM. 24. YEAH. THAT'S FOR SURE. SEND YOU GUYS AN UPDATE. APPRECIATE IT.
YEAH. YOU GUYS ARE OF COURSE ALWAYS WELCOME TO ATTEND, BUT I'LL SEND YOU THE INVITE JUST TO MAKE SURE IT'S ON THE CALENDAR. PERFECT. OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. DEBBIE SAYS THE INVITE WAS SENT OUT THIS MORNING. OKAY. EVERYBODY'S GOT A DIFFERENT DATE. YEAH, WE MISSED A JUVENILE. OH, YEAH. SHE'S ALREADY SAYING DON'T TALK ABOUT IT. THANK YOU. JOHN. OKAY.
THANKS, JOHN. ANY OTHER DEPARTMENT HEADS? THEY'LL BE LOOKING AROUND LIKE YOU. CAT.
THAT'S. NO. YEAH. DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY. OH MY GOD. GABRIEL, ARE YOU SPRAYING FOR MOSQUITOES OR. NO. DO YOU HAVE A MACHINE? NO. YES HE DOES, AND IT'S OVER IN MY BARN. OKAY. OH.
OH, NO, I HAVE TWO. OKAY. THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE TO REPORT ON IS. I'M SORRY. I GUESS, ABOUT ALL THE CONFUSION. WAS IT TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY WHEN WE HAD ALL THE RAIN HERE AT HOME? I WAS 385 MILES AWAY FROM HERE, TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS UP THERE AND TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS DOWN HERE. STARTED AT 530 THAT MORNING TRYING TO GET CALLS OUT TO EVERYBODY DOWN HERE, BUT NOTHING WENT THROUGH. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS WEATHER OR WHAT, BUT IT WOULD NOT LET ANYTHING GO THROUGH DOWN HERE. I THINK. FINALLY GOT IN TOUCH WITH THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT GROUP, AND I THINK THEY FINALLY GOT SOMETHING OUT PROBABLY AROUND
[00:10:02]
SEVEN THAT MORNING MAYBE OR SO, WHICH WAS ALMOST TOO LATE, YOU KNOW, FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT NEEDED TO TRAVEL. BUT I TRIED MY BEST, YOU KNOW, BEING THAT FAR AWAY WITH THE WEATHER CONDITIONS OVER HERE, BECAUSE WHEN I GOT UP AT 4:00 IN THE MORNING AND LOOKED AT THE WEATHER HERE, THERE WAS ONLY LIKE A 55% CHANCE OF RAIN. BUT BY 6:00 THAT MORNING, YOU COULD DEFINITELY TELL THAT THERE WAS GOING TO BE SOMETHING A LOT MORE THAN A 55% CHANCE OF RAIN THAT WAS GOING TO COME THROUGH HERE AND STUFF. SO I JUST APOLOGIZED IF IT AFFECTED A LOT OF THEM. I KNOW IT AFFECTED THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. YOU KNOW, WITH THE COURTS, THEY HAD COURTS GOING ON AND THEY HAD WITNESSES AND COMING IN AND ATTORNEYS COMING IN AND EVERYTHING ELSE.BUT THAT'S JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TRY TO WORK OUT THAT WHEN I'M OUT OF TOWN AND WE HAVE SOME KIND OF MAJOR EMERGENCY LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW, SOMEBODY HERE, I THINK IF THE MANAGEMENT GROUP HAD BEEN HERE, WE'D HAVE BEEN A LOT BETTER OFF. BUT THEY WERE EVEN WITH ME AT THE CONFERENCE THAT I WAS AT. SO THAT WAS OUR PROBLEM THAT MORNING. SO WE'LL WORK ON THE CORRECT ISSUE THAT WE HAD AND TRY TO GET THOSE NOTICES OUT AS QUICK AS WE CAN FOR EVERYONE. WHEN WE DO HAVE RAIN LIKE THAT. OKAY. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANYTHING TO REPORT? OKAY, THEN WE WILL MOVE ON TO THE APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES OF COMMISSIONER

A REQUEST FROM PATRICK COUNTY AUDITOR FOR COUNTY AUDITOR'S OFFICE TO GO OUT FOR RFP ON THIRD PARTY MEDICAL AND DENTAL PLAN ADMINISTRATION, RECORD KEEPING AND CLAIM REPRICING, PHARMACY BENEFIT MANAGER, CASH PAY, POINT OF SERVICE CLAIMS ADJUSTMENT AND CARE, NAVIGATION AND SERVICES AND PRIMARY CARE SERVICES. MOVE TO APPROVE. OKAY, I GOT A MOTION FOR APPROVAL. I GOT A SECOND BY COMMISSIONERS. OF COURSE. PATRICK. I MEAN, YOU MIGHT EXPLAIN WHERE WE'RE AT ON ALL OF THIS. I KNOW LOTS OF EMPLOYEES WANT TO KNOW HOW FAST WE'RE GOING TO GET ALL THIS MEDICAL STUFF SQUARED AWAY. AND WE'RE ABOUT WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW WITH IT, PLEASE. YES.RIGHT NOW CONTINUES TALKS WITH CENTAVO. THEY'RE GOING THROUGH A THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE MULTIPLE CHECK RUNS PER WEEK. IT DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE GOING TO GET PAID THOSE DAYS. THEY'LL STILL COME TO COURT TO GET PAID. THEY'RE WORKING THROUGH THE CLAIMS AND THE REPRICING.
THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW. SO OBVIOUSLY EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE LAST TIME THAT WE HAD. SO THIS IS WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE IS GOING BACK OUT FOR BIDS TO BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, GO OUT AND GET A NEW INSURANCE PERSON THERE FOR THAT. SO. ANY QUESTIONS? I KNOW, AS I SAID IN MY COMMENTS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, THIS COUNTY HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROUD OF THE SERVICE AND THE INSURANCE THAT WE HAVE FOR OUR EMPLOYEES. AND THIS IS NO POINT TO ANY OF OUR EMPLOYEES, EVEN THE STARS OR WHOEVER WAS DEALING WITH THIS PROGRAM. WE LITERALLY GOT THE WOOL PULLED OVER OUR EYES BY THE COMPANY THAT WE HAD, AND NOW WE'RE TRYING TO DIG OUT OF IT THE BEST WAY WE CAN FOR THE EMPLOYEES THAT WE CAN. AS WE APPROACH THE BUDGET THIS YEAR, I'M GOING TO SAY WHAT I SAID LAST YEAR. I THINK WE NEED A SEPARATE INSURANCE DEPARTMENT. WELL, BUDGETS COMING UP. WELL, I'M I'M JUST SAYING. SO THAT'S A QUESTION. CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO ME THE INSURANCE. IN MY EYES? WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT SINCE BACK IN THE 90S AND HAVING INSURANCE SEPARATE WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM DAY TO DAY, INSIDE AND OUT. NOTHING GETS MISSED. CONTRACTS CAN GET VIEWED. AND BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, IT JUST EXTRA WORK FOR HR DEPARTMENT AS WE GROW. AND I FEEL THAT, YOU KNOW, IT, IT NEEDS TO HAVE THE ATTENTION DEDICATED TO IT. WE SHOULD NOT BE IN A SITUATION WE'RE IN RIGHT NOW. MY EMPLOYEES ARE NUMBER ONE. IF YOU HAD COULD GET BILLS. COME IN. I KNOW BILL HASN'T BEEN HERE SINCE ALL THIS REALLY GOT UGLY WITH THE DOCTORS AND STUFF. COME IN AND EXPLAIN TO THE COURT AND TO THE EMPLOYEES THAT ARE GOING TO BE HERE, WHAT WE'RE DOING IN APPROXIMATELY HOW LONG IT MAY TAKE TO DO THIS SO WE CAN GET BACK TO NORMAL, YOU KNOW, WITH EMPLOYEES GOING TO THE DOCTOR THEY WANT TO AND GETTING THEIR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS THE WAY THEY WANT TO AND EVERYTHING ELSE. SO CHECK WITH BILL'S SCHEDULE AND SEE IF YOU CAN GET HIM IN HERE ONE MORNING FOR COMMISSIONERS COURT AND EXPLAIN TO US EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON.
OKAY. EVER. I THINK THAT'S THE REASON WHY WE HAVE BILL, YOU. A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC MIGHT NOT KNOW WHO HE IS. WILLIAM RUSTBURG WE DO HAVE A CONTRACT WHERE WE GO OUT WITH SOMEBODY, AND THAT PERSON IS DEDICATED JUST TO HANDLING INSURANCE ISSUES AND MAKING SURE RUN SMOOTHLY AND ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS. OUR COUNTY HR STILL KIND OF HAS TO, YOU KNOW, MONITOR WHEN INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEES DO COME WITH VERY SPECIFIC ISSUES. BUT THAT IS KIND OF LIKE ALREADY HAVING OUR OWN INSURANCE THING BECAUSE HE IS AN OUTSIDE INDEPENDENT PERSON THAT YOU GUYS DO CONTRACT WITH. I'M NOT BLAMING ANYBODY, HR OR AUDITORS DEPARTMENT OR ANYTHING. I JUST KNOW THAT IT HAPPENED. ONE OF THOSE THINGS HAPPENED TO WHERE WE GOT SNOWED OVER AND STUFF. AND NOW, LIKE I SAID, WE'RE TRYING TO DIG OUR WAY BACK OUT OF IT. I KNOW THE EMPLOYEES ARE THE ONES THAT ARE SUFFERING FOR IT, BUT HOLD ON, WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST TO GET IT DONE AS FAST AS WE CAN. OKAY, I DON'T THINK I VOTE ON THAT. I THINK I HAD A MOTION IN A SECOND. CORRECT? RIGHT. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION SAY AYE. AYE. THOSE OPPOSED? SAME SIGN. OKAY. MOTION CARRIES. POINT FOR DISCUSSION. CONSIDERATION AND
[g. Discussion, consideration and possible action regarding a request from Commissioner Ruben Gonzales for the issuance of credit cards to county Commissioners for county business use. ]
POSSIBLE ACTION. ACCORDING TO A REQUEST FROM COMMISSIONER RUBÉN GONZALEZ FOR THE ISSUANCE OF CREDIT CARDS TO COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR COUNTY BUSINESS USE. A MOTION TO[00:25:02]
APPROVE. BUT NO, WE DISCUSSED. YEAH, I THINK WE AS ELECTED OFFICIALS, COMMISSIONER, WE HAVE CREDIT CARD WHEN WE TRAVEL OUT OF TOWN GETTING HOTELS. I DON'T KNOW HOW THE SHERIFF EVEN HANDLES ALL THIS, BUT THE TRANSPARENCY OF HAVING A COUNTY CREDIT CARD IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. AND RESERVING ROOMS. I'M PAYING MORE FOR HOTELS OR I KNOW OUT OF TOWN. WELL, ONE TIME WE HAD TO BUY A BATTERY FOR HIS CAR AND, YOU KNOW, IT JUST BECOMES A MESS. NOT HAVING A COUNTY CREDIT CARD WITH HOTELS AS A REST OF THE COURT. I DON'T WANT ONE. I'VE BEEN USING MY OWN. GETTING REIMBURSED AND WORKING IS FINE. COMMISSIONERS RIGHT NOW. I MEAN, THE SITUATION IS, YOU KNOW, I I'VE SEEN THIS OVER AND OVER THE YEARS. WE TRAVEL. I USE MY CARD, I PAY MY OFF REAL QUICK SO I DON'T GET CHARGED SERVICE CHARGES. BUT, YOU KNOW, IT COULD TAKE UP TO A MONTH OR TWO TO GET REIMBURSEMENT BACK TO THE, YOUR CREDIT CARD. THERE ARE SOME EMPLOYEES THAT TRAVEL IN OTHER DEPARTMENTS. YOU KNOW, SOME OF THEM DON'T HAVE THE LIMITS THAT WE HAVE UP HERE ON OUR CARDS. YOU KNOW, IF YOU HAVE A CERTAIN LIMIT ON YOUR CARD IN ORDER TO BOOK A HOTEL ROOM, SOME OF THESE ROOMS ARE GETTING AWFUL EXPENSIVE. AND I THINK, YOU KNOW, ELECTED OFFICIALS OUGHT TO HAVE THAT. YEAH. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S JUST COMMISSIONERS YOU'RE ASKING FOR OR ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS. OKAY. I'M SORT OF LIKE COMMISSIONER GILLESPIE. I STILL DON'T WANT IT. I DON'T WANT THE RESPONSE. I DON'T WANT I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO HAVE IT TRACKED. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE IT CAN BE AN OPTION THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE. I MEAN, I THINK IT'S WORKED OUT WELL. I'VE HAD TO GO OUT AND GET A SEPARATE CREDIT CARD FROM MY BANK JUST TO BE ABLE TO DO ALL THE TRAVEL AND EVERYTHING ELSE, KEEP IT SEPARATE FROM MY PERSONAL ACCOUNTS. YEAH. BUT TAMARA, IF YOU'LL COME UP TO THE MICROPHONE, PLEASE, SO EVERYBODY CAN HEAR YOU. I CAN SEE US HAVING ONE TO WHERE WE CAN GET OUR ROOM, PAY OUR RESERVATIONS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. IN OUR TIME WHEN WE'RE IN HERE. AS FAR AS CARRYING ONE, I HAVE A MONITORS GOING ALL THE WAY TO MATHIS, DRIVING 30 MINUTES OVER THERE TO PUT DOWN A CREDIT CARD AND THEN COMING BACK. I DON'T KNOW HOW EFFICIENT IT IS, AND I KNOW SOME OF THE HOTELS ARE REQUIRING TO SEE THAT CREDIT CARD. SO THAT MAY BE AN ISSUE WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH AS WELL. I KIND OF AGREE. I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR A CREDIT CARD FOR MY OFFICE WHEN WE HAVE OUR ANNUAL CONFERENCE, AND I TAKE MORE STAFF THAN JUST THE ATTORNEYS, I HAVE TO PUT EVERYBODY'S ROOM ON MY CREDIT CARD OR WE SPLIT IT UP AND IT I, YOU KNOW, WE'VE NEVER HAD TO DO THAT UNTIL LATELY WHEN IT'S COMING UP THROUGH. DKA. AND NOW THE STATE BAR REQUIRES THAT WE PAY BY CREDIT CARD FOR OUR DUES. AND THOSE, YOU KNOW, MINE RUNS AROUND 300. AND I'M SURE THE OTHER ONES THAT HAVE BEEN LICENSED LONGER, IT RUNS ABOUT THAT MUCH, AND IT'D BE A LOT MORE CONVENIENT FOR US TO BE ABLE TO JUST TO SEND A CREDIT CARD FOR EVERYBODY'S STATE BAR DUES, FOR RESERVING ROOMS FOR THE CONFERENCES. AND WE HAVE TO DO IT WAY IN ADVANCE. SO IT COULD IT WOULD BE VERY BENEFICIAL. YOU KNOW, I HAVE WHEN I'M FULL, I HAVE FOUR ATTORNEYS PLUS ME IS FIVE PLUS ANY OTHER STAFF THAT ARE GOING TO BE GOING TO THE CONFERENCE ALSO WANT TO BRING UP THE. WHEN YOU SEND AN EMPLOYEE OUT OF TOWN TO LIKE MOSQUITO SCHOOL AND HE GETS THAT HOTEL ROOM, THEY WANT TO SEE A PHYSICAL CARD. SO I'M HAVING TO SAY MY CREDIT CARD WITH THEM SO HE CAN, YOU KNOW, GUARANTEE FOR INCIDENTALS, AS THEY CALL IT. AND, YOU KNOW, SO FAR HAVE NOT BEEN ABUSED. BUT SOME OF MY EMPLOYEES JUST DON'T HAVE OR CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE OR DO NOT HAVE CREDIT CARDS, RIGHT. FOR SOME REASON. SO WHAT WE DO IS WE REQUEST THE CHECK IN ADVANCE AND IT'S EITHER MAILED TO THE HOTEL OR WE CARRY IT TO THE HOTEL. THAT'S THAT'S FINE. BUT SOME HOTELS STILL WANT A CREDIT CARD TO GUARANTEE INCIDENTALS IN CASE YOU WRECKED THE ROOM OR WHATEVER. THAT'S CORRECT. IT'S WHAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR, NOT WHAT WE REQUIRE. I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CHECKS AS WELL. I'VE CHECKED IN ADVANCE. YOU GO TO CHECK OUT OF THE HOTEL, AND IT'S OFF BY A DOLLAR AND A HALF. YOU HAD TO WAIT FOR THE MANAGER TO SHOW UP, TO RECONCILE THE RIGHT TO THE ACCOUNT. AND MOST HOTELS, I THINK IS PROBABLY THE ONLY PERSON CHECK AT THESE HOTELS. SO, SHERIFF, IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO PUT IN? SURE. I MEAN, NOBODY TRAVELS MORE THAN THE SHERIFF OUT HERE WITH THESE GUYS. THEY DO THEIRS. PROBABLY[00:30:01]
THE BIGGEST CREDIT CARD PERSONAL CREDIT CARD HAS BEEN FOR YEARS. WE REMODELED THE ENTIRE JAIL WITH MY CREDIT CARD. WE DIDN'T HAVE CREDIT CARD, BUT WHEN WE TRAVEL, WHEN WE DO, OFTEN IT'S COMMON PRACTICE FOR THE EMPLOYEE TO PICK UP MY CREDIT CARD FROM THE OFFICE BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM. JUST THIS YEAR ALONE, WE HAD A TRAVEL THERE WHERE WE USED A COUNTY CREDIT CARD, AND SURE ENOUGH, ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES DIDN'T GO THROUGH, SO WE HAD TO USE MY CARD. THANK GOODNESS I WAS THERE. LAST YEAR, THE ENTIRE STAFF OF THE JAIL THAT WENT TO THE CONFERENCE WITH SIX OF US CREDIT CARD WAS DENIED, GOT A CREDIT CARD, SO WE HAD TO USE MY CREDIT CARD. BUT THAT'S AN ONGOING THING WITH US HAS BEEN FOR YEARS, AND IT'S KIND OF HARD TO OPERATE LIKE THAT. I KNOW THERE'S BEEN CONCERN ABOUT ABUSE, BUT IT'S JUST A LAW THAT PREVENTS THAT KIND OF PROBLEM, AND IT'S SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ELECTED OFFICIAL THAT HAS TO CONTROL THE CREDIT CARD TO MAKE THE DECISION. IF HE GOES, SOMEONE NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL, RIGHT? ABSOLUTELY. YEAH. PATRICK. YOU SMILING TOO MUCH OVER THERE? IT'S, I GUESS, HAVING CREDIT CARDS ACROSS THE BOARD. AS SHERIFF MENTIONED, IT OPENS UP FOR FRAUD AND ABUSE. I'M NOT SAYING THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO FRAUD AND ABUSE, BUT HAVING MULTIPLE CREDIT CARDS OUT IN THE OPEN BEING USED, IT, IT JUST BECOMES AN ISSUE AS FAR AS OUR OFFICE GOES, YOU KNOW, TO TO AUDIT, I GUESS A BIG PROBLEM IS GETTING THE RECEIPTS, BEING ABLE TO AUDIT THOSE RECEIPTS AND THEN MAKING THE PAYMENT ON TIME TO THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY. I DON'T KNOW. I KNOW IT'S BEEN BROUGHT UP ABOUT HAVING THE CARD THERE. I KNOW WE DO CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORMS. IF THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CARD BEING PRESENT.I'VE NOT HEARD OF THAT UNTIL NOW, BUT TYPICALLY CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORMS WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT. WE STILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE PURCHASE ORDER PROCESS. YOU CAN'T JUST GO AND USE THE CREDIT CARD. YOU STILL HAVE TO GET A PURCHASE ORDER TO US TO BE ABLE TO AUTHORIZE THAT USE. SO THERE'S STILL STEPS INVOLVED AS FAR AS USING THE CREDIT CARD, MY CONCERN IS. I THINK IT'S JUST HUMAN NATURE TO HAVE. THERE'S A EASE OF USE AND IT BECOMES IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, MY MY CONCERN IS IT'S GOING TO END UP BEING USED FOR SMALL PURCHASES THAT ARE GOING TO TAKE MORE TIME TO BE ABLE TO AUDIT. I'M OKAY WITH THE WHOLE JUDGE, NOT THIS MORNING. IF IT'S A MATTER OF WE'VE HAD I I'M I DON'T KNOW IF WE'VE HAD HUGE CONCERNS AS FAR AS I THINK ALL OF OUR CONFERENCES WE KNOW ARE COMING UP IN THREE, FOUR, SIX MONTHS. I DON'T SEE THAT AS AN ISSUE AS FAR AS NOT BEING ABLE TO GET SOMETHING DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. I GUESS IN GENERAL, YOU KNOW, I'M JUST AS A AS A COUNTY WIDE EVERYONE HAVING A CREDIT CARD. I, I HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF A, I GUESS, CONCERN WITH OBVIOUSLY IT'S UP TO YOU ALL IF Y'ALL WANT TO, YOU KNOW, GO THROUGH WITH IT. IT BECOMES IT'S ON ON MY OFFICE. IT'S, IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT OF A, IT COULD BECOME AN ISSUE AS FAR AS GATHERING RECEIPTS AND BEING ABLE TO AUDIT THOSE IN A TIMELY MANNER AND GET THOSE RECEIPTS IN TIMELY MANNER BEFORE THE STATEMENT COMES OUT. AND THE WAY, YOU KNOW, READ A STATEMENT ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON FOR TWO WEEKS OUT FROM PAYING THAT STATEMENT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE AGENDA IS AND THE WAY WE HAVE PAYABLES COMING IN. SO THERE'S IT'S THERE'S CONCERNS AS FAR AS JUST, YOU KNOW, BEING TO USE A CREDIT CARD REAL QUICK. SO THOSE ARE, THOSE ARE MY, YOU KNOW, MY CONCERNS. ANDREW, CAN I ASK A QUESTION REAL QUICK? SURE. I GUESS CARS DO WE HAVE. OH, RIGHT NOW I HAVE NO MULTIPLE MULTIPLE. HOW MANY HOW MANY. AND THOSE CARDS ARE ASSIGNED TO ONE VEHICLE. RIGHT.
AND HOW MANY HOW MANY ABUSES HAVE WE HAD TO IT. NO I DON'T IT COULD BE ZERO. I DON'T KNOW.
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. WE DON'T BRING UP PROBLEMS TO YOU ALL THE TIME WITH THESE CREDIT CARDS. WE JUST BEEN DEALING WITH IT FOR THE LAST, YOU KNOW, FOR ME. YEAH. OKAY. THEN I ASK THAT YOU BRING THEM TO US SO WE KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. I MEAN, WE USUALLY GET, WELL, THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM. AND IT'S USUALLY THE ANSWER WE GET. AND I'M SAYING, YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD SOME PROBLEMS AND SOME ISSUES. WE'VE WORKED THROUGH THEM. AND BASICALLY IN HOUSE. BUT YOU KNOW, IT JUST THAT'S WHY COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ BROUGHT IT ON TO THE AGENDA. AND I WOULD LIKE TO EXPAND IT TO ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS. I MEAN, IF WE CAN'T TRUST OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS, WHAT CAN WE DO? RIGHT. AND I'M NOT SAYING ELECTED OFFICIALS, I'M JUST SAYING JUST HAVE HAVING CARDS OUT THERE GOING THROUGH THE INTERNET. YOU KNOW, WE HAVE THOSE DEPARTMENT HEADS. I SAID, ELECTED OFFICIALS, THEY'LL BE ASSIGNED TO ELECTED OFFICIAL.
[00:35:04]
RIGHT? EXACTLY. THOSE ACCOUNTABLE. OKAY. I NEED TO TALK A LITTLE BIT HERE. AND I'VE BEEN HERE. I'VE BEEN HERE TEN YEARS FROM NOVEMBER AND I HAVEN'T HAD THESE PROBLEMS. JUST SENT BOTH MY MOSQUITO GUYS TO REFRESHER TRAINING. THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY TROUBLE, YOU KNOW, SO WE WERE OBSERVED EVERYTHING ON THE CREDIT CARD THAT THE AUDITORS HAVE, WHATEVER THAT IS, I GUESS. AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO LEAVE ANYTHING FOR INCIDENTALS THAT I'M NOT AWARE OF. AND FOR ME, I COVER ALL MY OWN STUFF AND HAVE FOR THE LAST TEN YEARS. SO AND THEN I PUT IT IN FOR REIMBURSEMENT TO THE AUDITORS AND THE TREASURER'S OFFICE.THEY SENT ME A CHECK BACK, I DEPOSIT IT, YOU KNOW, I'M GOOD. SO I JUST DON'T WANT TO MIX MY PERSONAL STUFF WITH THE COUNTY. WHY DO YOU NEED RECEIPTS? OKAY, WELL. OH. I HAD IT. OH, SORRY.
GO AHEAD. I HAVE A FEW COMMENTS ON THIS BECAUSE I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR 16 YEARS. INITIALLY, THE COUNTY JUDGE'S OFFICE WAS ALLOWED TO HAVE ACCESS TO A CREDIT CARD NUMBER TO MAKE ALL HOTEL RESERVATIONS. THAT WAS PRETTY EASY. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WE DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IT VERY OFTEN BECAUSE MOST OF THE HOTELS ACCEPTED COUNTY CHECKS. YOU JUST NEEDED THE CREDIT CARD NUMBER TO HOLD THE RESERVATION, AND THEN YOU SHOWED UP WITH THE CHECK. NO PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME THAT SO MANY HOTELS THAT THESE CONFERENCES ARE NOW BEING HELD AT DO NOT ACCEPT GOVERNMENT CHECKS OR OTHER CHECKS BECAUSE OF A LOT OF FRAUDULENT THINGS HAVE BEEN GOING AROUND WITH GOVERNMENT CHECKS AND PERSONAL CHECKS AND BUSINESS CHECKS AND WHATEVER.
AS FAR AS THE TIMELINESS OF GETTING THE AUTHORIZATION, MANY OF THESE CONFERENCES, YOU NEED TO BOOK IT THE MINUTE THAT REGISTRATION IS OPEN AND THE CREDIT CARD PEOPLE, THERE'S TWO OF THEM IN THE AUDITOR'S OFFICE THAT THAT HAVE TO GIVE YOU THAT AND THAT INFORMATION. AND THERE'S BEEN SOME TIMES WHERE NEITHER ONE IS AVAILABLE. SO BY THE TIME YOU GO TO DO THAT, THE HOST HOTEL AND SOMETIMES THE BACKUP HOTELS ARE GONE. SO YOU DON'T HAVE THAT RATE. SO THEN THE COUNTY ENDS UP PAYING A HIGHER RATE. SO THAT IS AN ISSUE. SO THEY THEY WON'T LET YOU JUST GIVE YOU THE NUMBER. THEY WANT TO PHYSICALLY BE THERE WHEN YOU'RE ENTERING IT IN YOUR THING. I'M NOT SURE WHY THAT IS, BUT THAT'S THE POLICY SO FAR. ONCE WE FINALLY DO GET THE RESERVATION, THEN WE DO HAVE TO GET THE CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORM AND GIVE THAT BACK TO THE AUDITOR'S OFFICE TO HAVE THEM FILL THAT OUT, GET IT TO THE HOTEL, SEND IT BACK TO THE AUDITOR'S AUDITORS, GET IT TO US SO THAT WE CAN PHYSICALLY GIVE THAT FORM FOR WHOEVER'S TRAVELING TO THAT. THAT'S JUST IN THE COUNTY JUDGE'S OFFICE. AND THE JUDGE HAS MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS UNDER HIM. BUT AGAIN, WAY BACK WHEN THE COUNTY JUDGE OFFICE DID HAVE ONE, AND THEY WERE ABLE TO DO IT FOR ALL THE DEPARTMENTS UNDER HIM, DO THE HOTEL RESERVATIONS THROUGH THAT. THAT WENT AWAY WHEN MR. TELFORD RETIRED. AND SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FIX IS FOR IT. I'M JUST SAYING IT. IT IS AN ISSUE AND IT IS VERY TIMELY AND IT DOES BECOME COSTLY SOMETIMES. I DO KNOW THAT THEY HAVE REQUIRED, ONCE THE COUNTY DOES PAY FOR THE ROOM, THEY HAVE REQUIRED THE INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE TO PUT A PERSONAL CREDIT CARD DOWN FOR INCIDENTALS. SO THAT WOULD HELP WITH. IF THE COUNTY PAYS FOR THE ROOM AND THROUGH A COUNTY CREDIT CARD, THEN THE EMPLOYEE. THAT WOULD JUST NEED TO BE A POLICY THING THAT. IF YOU DO APPROVE CREDIT CARDS FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS, THAT THE EMPLOYEE WILL STILL HAVE TO DO THEIR CREDIT CARD FOR INCIDENTALS. COME OVER AGAIN. I HAVE ASKED THE AUDITOR'S OFFICE IN THE PAST ABOUT USING A COUNTY CREDIT CARD TO HOLD ROOMS, AND I WAS TOLD I COULDN'T DO THAT. I YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'VE TAKEN A BUNCH OF PEOPLE TO A CONFERENCE AND YOU START RESERVING ROOMS FOR EACH ONE, IT'S A AT LEAST 150 TO $200 ROOM, DEPENDING ON WHERE WE'RE AT. THAT COMES UP TO A LOT OF MONEY ON ONE CREDIT CARD. SO THAT'S WHY I HAVE TO DIVIDE IT UP BETWEEN ME AND SOMEBODY ELSE. AND THAT'S IN THE OFFICE. SO IF THAT IS AVAILABLE, I WOULD APPRECIATE THE USE OF THAT. BUT WE HAVE I WAS TOLD SEVERAL YEARS AGO THAT I DID NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THAT. SO ARE WE ARE WE JUST IS THIS MORE OF A TRAVEL JUST IN GENERAL? ARE WE TALKING ABOUT JUST TRAVEL PURPOSES OR WHAT? I WOULD SAY MOSTLY TRAVEL, BUT THERE ARE
[00:40:05]
PURCHASES EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THAT WOULD BE VERY USEFUL TO HAVE A CREDIT CARD AND THINGS LIKE A WIND MONITOR TO MEASURE THE WIND SPEEDS. IF I WANT TO GO ORDER ONE OFF OF AMAZON SO I CAN GET IT HERE RELATIVELY QUICKLY. HAVING A CREDIT CARD IS, YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T TAKE POS, THEY DON'T TAKE CHECKS. THEY, YOU KNOW, SO THERE ARE OTHER TIMES THAT A CREDIT CARD WOULD BE USEFUL. SO I COME TALK TO PATRICK LAST WEEK, JUST SO I COULD KIND OF GET A HANDLE ON HOW MUCH ADDITIONAL WORK WOULD THIS BE FOR HIS STAFF? WHAT WERE THE PITFALLS OF THIS? AND I THINK IF WE'RE GOING TO GO DOWN THE ROUTE TO ISSUE ONE TO EVERY ELECTED OFFICIAL, WHICH I THINK WOULD SOLVE A LOT OF THESE PROBLEMS, ONE SIMPLE SOLUTION OR SAFEGUARD PUT IN PLACE WOULD BE A A SIMPLE FORM THAT AS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. I AGREE THAT I WILL FOLLOW THESE POLICIES IN REGARDS TO THIS CREDIT CARD, AND THAT INCLUDES THE TIMELINESS OF SUBMITTING RECEIPTS AND WHATEVER, WHATEVER THE REQUIREMENTS ARE THAT WE WANT TO PUT OUT THERE. AND IF I DON'T FOLLOW THOSE AND I LOSE THE RISK OF HAVING A CREDIT CARD PRIVILEGE. SO I THINK THERE ARE WAYS TO DEAL WITH THIS. I DO UNDERSTAND IT'S GOING TO CREATE SOME AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL WORK ON YOUR STAFF, BUT I THINK IN THE LONG RUN, IT REALLY WOULD SIMPLIFY THINGS FOR ALL THE ELECTED OFFICIALS, REALLY. AND I'VE GOT SOME ISSUES TOO ON, ON HAVING SOME STORES THAT WE DON'T HAVE A CREDIT LINE WHERE WE CAN'T PURCHASE IT. AND I NEED THE PART NOW, NOT 30 DAYS OR TWO WEEKS LATER TO GET A CHECK. WE NEED THE PARTS NOW TO GET OUR EQUIPMENT UP AND GOING. SO WE'VE HAD A LOT OF CASES LIKE THAT ON OUR PARKS DEPARTMENT AND STUFF, BUT THERE'S SITUATIONS WHERE WE'RE WAITING WEEKS JUST TO GET THE PART BECAUSE OTHERWISE WE'D HAVE A CREDIT CARD WE CAN CHARGE AND GET IT RIGHT THERE ON THE SPOT.SO THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ELECTED OFFICIALS WERE ALL GOES TO, I THINK IF YOU WANT ONE, I THINK IT SHOULD BE AVAILABLE. AND IF YOU DON'T, DON'T GET ONE. I THINK WE JUST HAVE TO CREATE A POLICY THAT STATES WHAT THE REQUIREMENTS ARE. AND THEN WE'RE ISSUED A CARD. WE SIGN OFF THAT. WE UNDERSTAND THAT. IT CAN BE PUT IN THE PURCHASING MANUAL. I'M GOING TO I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. I THINK WE HAD ONE YET NOT. YEAH. HE HE MADE A MOTION THAT THERE WAS NO SECOND. HE STARTED TALKING. SO WHILE WE'RE STILL TALKING. YEAH, I'LL LET IT GO. NO WORRIES. I'LL MAKE YOUR AGENDA ITEM SAYS FOR COMMISSIONERS ONLY. IT DOESN'T SAY ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS. SO GO OFF THE AGENDA. I WAS GOING TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE TABLE THIS FOR NOW. BUT PATRICK COME BACK WITH A SOLUTION TO IT. HE'S HEARD WHAT WE WANT HIM YOU KNOW A CREDIT CARD FOR. COME BACK AND WRITE THAT FORM UP WHAT WE CAN USE IT FOR AND WHAT WE SHOULDN'T BE USING IT FOR THE DATES AND HOW QUICK BASIC RULES THOSE RECEIPTS. AND I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO TABLE THE NEXT WEEK, MONDAY, AND LET PATRICK COME UP WITH THE ANSWER TO IT.
AND THEN WE CAN SEE IF WE WANT TO PROVE IT. WE HAVE A MOTION TO TABLE. I'LL SECOND. OKAY. A MOTION TO TABLE. VERY GOOD. THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER YARDLEY. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION SAY AYE. AYE. THOSE OPPOSED? SAME SIGN. OKAY. MOTION APPROVED TO TABLE. OKAY.
IT'S JUST A SIDE NOTE. WE GET A GENERAL. SEND SOMETHING OUT TO ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS. FIND OUT HOW MANY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. OH, BEFORE NEXT MONDAY. YEAH, WELL, IT'S LIKE COMMISSIONER GILLESPIE SAID THIS IS FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONERS IS WHAT THIS ONE'S FOR. YEAH, I KNOW, BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE IF YOU'RE GOING TO CHANGE IT, RIGHT, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE IT IF WE WANT EVERYBODY ELECTED. YEAH. SO YES, YOU HAVE TO AMEND THE AGENDA ITEM

SAY AYE. AYE. THOSE OPPOSED? SAME SIGN. MOTION CARRIES. 2.4 DISCUSSION. CONSIDERATION.ACTION ON MANAGEMENT ADVISORY GROUP. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY PROPOSED PAYMENT PLAN CODES FOR THE SAN PATRICIO COUNTY EMPLOYEE PORTION POSITIONS. SO OUR COMMITTEES MEETING PRETTY MUCH ON A WEEKLY BASIS, TRYING TO FINALIZE THE NUMBERS, THE GRADES AND WHAT THE NUMBERS ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE DURING OUR PRESENTATIONS. WE HAVE WE HAD OUR ZOOM MEETINGS, WE HAD SOME
[00:45:04]
MORE DETAILED WITH DEPARTMENT HEADS AND ELECTED OFFICIALS IN THE MEETINGS THAT WE'VE BEEN HAVING WITH THEM IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS. THEY WERE LOOKING AT THE NUMBERS THAT THEY ACTUALLY WERE GOING TO BE RECEIVING. OF COURSE, NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT JANUARY 1ST FOR ALL OF THIS. SO WE HAVE MAYBE A HANDFUL OF DEPARTMENTS THAT STILL WANT TO PAY A LITTLE BIT MORE. THEY GIVE US OUR REASONS TO WHY THEY WANTED TO DO THAT. OUR RECOMMENDATION TO THE ELECTED OFFICIALS AND DEPARTMENT HEAD IS, IF YOU HAVE AN EMPLOYEE THAT YOU FEEL YOU NEED TO ALIGN THIS YEAR COMING INTO JANUARY, YOU NEED TO REQUEST THAT DURING BUDGET TIME, WE'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT THE NUMBERS THAT MAG IS GOING TO GIVE. WE'VE GIVEN THE EMPLOYEES, I MEAN, THE DEPARTMENT HEADS THOSE NUMBERS. AND THEN IF ANYTHING ADDITIONAL TO THAT, ONCE WE START WORKING ON BUDGET, ANYTHING CHANGES. THEN WE'LL DO THAT WITH WHAT THE MAG IS GOING TO BE PRESENTING AND SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING THE COURT WANTS TO APPROVE BASED ON OUR TIMELINE, A TIMELINE THAT THE AUDITOR AND I ARE LOOKING AT. ANY RECLASSIFICATIONS, WHICH I HAVE A FEW DEPARTMENTS THAT ARE WANTING TO RECLASSIFY. WE'VE GIVEN THEM THE NEW MAG NUMBERS, WHAT IT WOULD BE LOOKING LIKE. AND OF COURSE, EVERYTHING IS AN ADVANTAGE FOR THE EMPLOYEES.BUT AGAIN, YOU CAN PRESENT THAT AT BUDGET TIME. THE COURT CAN LOOK AT ALL OF THAT AND MAKE THAT DETERMINATION HOW THEY WANT TO HAVE THAT FOR JANUARY 1ST. WE DO HAVE A COUPLE OF EMPLOYEES, NEW POSITIONS THAT WERE REQUESTED DURING THE MAG REPORT, AND WE'RE LOOKING AT THE J. WE'RE ASKING MAG TO KIND OF LOOK AT THOSE SPECIFIC, BECAUSE WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT ON THE MAG REPORT ITSELF, IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THERE WAS A LOT OF MOVEMENT. SO WE'RE ASKING MAG TO GO AHEAD AND LOOK AT THOSE SPECIFIC POSITIONS JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT GOING TO UNDERCUT ANYBODY ON THE ACTUAL GRADE ITSELF. ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON WHERE WE ARE WITH THAT? SO DO WE NEED ACTION ON ANYTHING TODAY? NO, IT'S JUST A REPORT. I WAS JUST WANTING TO MAKE SURE IF THERE WAS ANYTHING YOU HAD. WE HAD A LOT OF THE DEPARTMENT HEADS THAT WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE NUMBERS THEMSELVES, KIND OF SEEING BECAUSE THEY THEY WERE, AS YOU ALL GOT YOUR REPORT WHEN YOU'RE DOING BUDGET, THEY GOT WHAT THEIR EMPLOYEES ARE. NOW, WHAT IT'S LOOKING LIKE FOR JANUARY TOTALLY SEPARATE EVERY. ALMOST ALL OF THE DEPARTMENT HEADS WERE CONCERNED ABOUT COST OF LIVING. I DID INFORM THEM ALL WE ARE LOOKING AT WITH MAG AND WITH BUDGET ITSELF IS JUST THE SALARIES. ONCE THE COURT LOOKS AT EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON, THERE'S ALSO ADDITIONAL PRESENTATIONS WE'RE WANTING TO BRING DURING BUDGET TIME. AGAIN, ANOTHER KIND OF POSITIVE FOR THE EMPLOYEES. BUT AGAIN, IT'S GOING TO BE ALL IN THE FINANCIAL PART AND IT'LL BE ALL FOR JANUARY 1ST. ONCE THE COURT DECIDES SALARIES. ANYTHING ADDITIONAL THAT IS GOING TO BE PRESENTED, ANY RECLASSIFIED RECLASSIFICATIONS FOR AUGUST 30TH WHEN WE ACTUALLY DO THE BUDGET, THEN WE'LL HAVE AN IDEA AND EVERYONE WILL KNOW WE ARE LOOKING AT JANUARY 1ST FOR ANY INCREASES. WELL, AS WE ARE DEVELOPING OUR BUDGETS RIGHT NOW, WHENEVER WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A PRODUCT IN HAND THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY STUDY TO, TO LOOK AT THESE NUMBERS. YOUR STAFF CAME AND SPOKE TO ME TWO SEPARATE DAYS ON YOUR SALARY FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES. OKAY. AND I SPOKE TO THEM. THEY TALKED TO ME ABOUT RECLASSIFICATION. SO YOU WERE NOT AT THAT PARTICULAR MEETING. YOU SENT STAFF. THAT'S WHO I TALKED TO. WELL, PER YOUR INSTRUCTIONS, I'M LOOKING AT PRODUCT. I CAN PUT MY HAND AND I CAN READ. THAT'S ALL. YOU CAN JUST GIVE IT TO THEM ELECTRONICALLY, CAN'T YOU? I HAVE GIVEN IT TO HIM ELECTRONICALLY, AND HE HAD A COPY BECAUSE HIS STAFF CAME WITH THE COPY THAT I GAVE THEM. I'VE GOT I'VE GOT WHAT YOU GAVE ME IN HAND AT MY OFFICE TO INCLUDE IN MY BUDGET. SO WELL, AND ALSO ELECTED OFFICIALS AND DEPARTMENT HEADS GOT THOSE REPORTS FOR THEIR DEPARTMENTS. THAT'S HOW THEY WERE DOING THEIR BUDGETS. THAT'S HOW THOSE QUESTIONS. WELL, I KIND OF WANT TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF RECLASSIFICATION HERE. I NEED TO MOVE THIS PERSON EITHER A H OH ONE. WE NOW HAVE THE THREE POSITIONS THAT CAME INTO PLACE WHEN IT COMES TO ROAD AND BRIDGE. WE HAD SOME CLERICAL THAT WANT TO RECLASSIFY FROM A ONE TO A 2 OR 2 TO A THREE. AGAIN, I TOLD THEM THIS IS WHEN YOU DO THOSE AND BASED ON THE REPORT THAT THEY GOT, THE NUMBERS ARE ON THERE. IF THEY MOVE SOMEBODY FROM A 2 TO 3, IT SHOWS THERE WAS A THREE WOULD BE I UNDERSTAND. AND YES, I DID SEE THAT. WHAT I'M SAYING IS NORMALLY WHEN YOU HAVE A. SURVEY THAT GOES OUT, THEY DO AN END REPORT. THEY PROVIDE A NICE PACKET TO OVERALL, NOT JUST ROAD AND BRIDGE, BUT EVERYTHING IS A CONCISE REPORT, RIGHT? ARE THEY GOING TO DO SOMETHING. THEY ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING. WE ARE NOT AT THE END REPORT. OBVIOUSLY THERE HAVE BEEN CHANGES. WE EVEN HAD CHANGES THIS PAST WEEK. WE HAD ANOTHER MEETING WITH THEM FRIDAY AFTERNOON AT 330, WANTING TO MAKE SURE WHAT WAS LEFT OVER. THAT'S WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR. JUST A KIND OF OVERALL REPORT TYPE THING. I MEAN, THIS IS GOING ON FOR A YEAR AND JUST WAITING. I GUESS EVERY YEAR IS DIFFERENT THAN MINE. AND WE'RE GOOD. YES, MA'AM. IT IS DIFFERENT. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE
[00:50:01]
COURT? I DON'T HAVE ANY. THANK YOU, MR. NORMAN. OKAY. THANK YOU, MR. RIVERA. NO ACTION WILL NEED TO BE TAKEN ON THIS. OKAY. CONCLUDES OUR AGENDA ITEMS FOR THIS MORNING. WE'LL GO DOWN[3.
