[D. Report – Virginia Department of Transportation – Ed Carter]
ON TO REPORTS, THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION.MR. CARTER MORNING, MADAM SECRETARY, MADAM CHAIR.
UM, FOR MAINTENANCE THIS MONTH, UH, WE'VE BEEN DOING GRADING OPERATIONS AND FLYING STONE ON THE STABILIZED ROADS, UH, THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY AS FAST AS WE CAN GET TO THEM.
UH, AS THE WEATHER PERMITS, SOMETIMES IT'S, UH, WHEN IT'S REALLY WET, IF WE PUT A GRATER ON IT, WE TEAR UP MORE THAN WE FIXED.
SO, BUT WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THE SUN OF THEM, SOME OF THEM THIS WEEK AND NEXT WEEK, WE'LL BE CONTINUING THAT AS IT APPEARS THAT WE'RE GOING TO GET A, A DECENT BREAK IN THE WEATHER.
AT LEAST FROM PRECIPITATION STANDPOINT, THE POTHOLES HAVE BEEN FREQUENT.
WE CONTINUE TO ADDRESS THOSE AS THEY ARISE, UH, WHERE IT GETS CONTINUING OUR BRUSH AND TREE TRIMMING ON THREE 40 SOUTH OPEN UP THE SITE DISTANCE IN THE PASSING ZONES.
AND ALSO WE DID WENT OUT AND TOOK THEIR BUS, SAW WHAT WE CALL A BUS SAW.
IT'S A NEW STALL THAT WE HAVE ON AN ARM.
THEY CAN GO DOWN AND TRIM THE TREES OFF OF THE RIGHT OF WAY ALONG BROWNTOWN ROAD.
NOW WE'VE ONLY GOT TWO OF THOSE FOR FOUR COUNTIES.
SO WE SPENT AS MUCH TIME AS WE CAN HITTING THE MOST DIFFICULT SPOTS.
SO IF WE GOT A PIECE OF IT AND WE DIDN'T GET THE REST OF IT DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO, WE JUST HAVE TO SHARE, SHARE THOSE THINGS.
CAUSE THERE ARE ABOUT $90,000 A PIECE THAT WE ONLY GOT TWO OF THEM.
UM, WE'LL ALSO BE INSTALLING SOME, UH, PIPES ON THE VARIOUS ROUTES.
THIS MARCH, UH, WEATHER PERMITTING, STAYS DRY, WHERE WE CAN GET IN THERE ON BOARD ISSUES.
UH, WE DID THE SCALING BETWEEN THE, UH, BETWEEN THE, UH, REFUGE SITE AND THE KOA CAMPGROUNDS
[00:05:01]
LAST WEEK.I THINK THEY FINISHED IT UP LAST FRIDAY A WEEK AGO.
AND, UM, BY THAT NOW ALL THEY DID WAS ADDRESS THE LOOSE STUFF.
THEY DIDN'T TRY TO DIG ANYTHING OUT.
WE DIDN'T WANT TO RISK MAKING THINGS WORSE THAN WHAT THEY WERE.
AND WE ENDED UP DOING THAT WITHOUT OUR HIGHER EQUIPMENT.
UH, AS OUR, UNFORTUNATELY WE STILL DON'T HAVE A CONTRACT IN PLACE, YOU KNOW, FOR A DISTRICT-WIDE CONTRACTOR.
WE USED SAFETY FUNDS TO PAY FOR THAT.
UH, WE DID GET A PRETTY GOOD PRICE ON IT, A LOT CHEAPER THAN WHAT WE HAD EXPECTED TO.
SO WE WENT AHEAD AND GOT IT DONE.
WE, UH, COMPLETED THE SPEED SAMPLES ON PANHANDLE ROAD THAT SUPERVISOR COOK ASKED FOR WE'D GIVEN COPIES TO HER AND TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE FOR THAT.
AND WHAT NOT ON HERE, I FORGOT TO PUT ON A, THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE CAME TO US ABOUT THE SMALL PIECE OF, OF, UH, UP AT CEDAR CREEK BRIDGE ON ROUTE 11, WHERE WARREN COUNTY COMES TO A POINT WITH SHANDRA COUNTY AND FREDERICK COUNTY.
AND THERE WAS A COMMON AREA DOWN THERE THAT WAS EASILY ACCESSED.
THEY HAD A LOT OF, UH, NEFARIOUS ACTIVITIES GOING ON.
THEY ASKED US TO INSTALL A GATE, UH, WHICH WE DID AND THE PEOPLE WHO NEED ACCESS ALL HAVE COMBINATIONS TO IT, INCLUDING THE PROPERTY OWNERS, BATTLEFIELD FOUNDATION, THE PARK SERVICE SHERIFF'S OFFICE IN EMERGENCY SERVICES.
SO WE GOT THAT DONE LAST WEEK.
I'M HOPING THAT THAT HELPED THEM.
UM, WE'VE BEEN GETTING A LOT OF VARIOUS ACTIONS DOWN THERE.
UM, WE, WE CAME TO THEM WITH A PROBLEM, UH, BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS IT SITS ON A PRETTY MUCH A TRANSECTION OF JURISDICTIONS, WARREN COUNTY, MIDDLETOWN, FREDERICK COUNTY, THE PARK, AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.
AND AS SOON AS THERE WOULD BE A CALL AND SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN, NOBODY KNEW WHOSE JURISDICTION IT WAS, OR SOMEBODY WOULD STEP INTO SOMEONE ELSE'S JURISDICTION.
I WENT DOWN THERE AND INSPECTED IT MYSELF.
WHEN I WAS DOWN THERE, I WENT IN MY WHITE PICKUP TRUCK AND THE PARKING LOT WAS FULL.
AS SOON AS MYSELF AND LIEUTENANT SEAL GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE, DISPLAYING OUR BADGE OF AUTHORITY, THAT IT WAS EMPTY.
ROBBIE SEAL WAS VERY DILIGENT IN GETTING EVERYONE TOGETHER AT A TABLE.
UM, WE CAME UP WITH AN IDEALIST, JUST BLOCK IT OFF FOR THE SAFETY OF EVERYBODY AND V DOT TOOK THE REINS.
AND COULDN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH, SIR.
IT MADE ALL THE COUNTIES, UH, THAT MUCH MORE SAFER.
WELL, ARE THERE ANY OTHER ISSUES THE BOARD WOULD LIKE FOR ME TO ADDRESS BOARD HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR AREAS OF CONCERN? UH, MADAM CHAIR.
I JUST WANT TO LET MR. CARTER KNOW THAT I WANTED TO SIT DOWN WITH HIM AT, UH, YOU KNOW, AT A, AT A, A FUTURE DATE AND JUST TALK TO HIM ABOUT THE, UH, HIGH KNOB AND SOME OF THE, UH, UH, STRATEGIES THAT WE COULD USE TO ADDRESS THAT.
WELL, HE'S GOING TO BE BACK FOR A WORK SESSION THIS MORNING TO GO OVER THINGS LIKE THAT.
SO ASK AND RECEIVE ALL IN ONE DAY.
WELL, YEAH, I'LL BE BACK THOUGH.
WHY NOW I'M SCHEDULED FOR 11 O'CLOCK AND, AND WE CAN CERTAINLY, IF YOU HAVE OTHER ISSUES WE CAN MEET AND DISCUSS THOSE TOO.
SO, WELL, I DO WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE WORK ON THREE 40, UM, THE TREE TRIMMING.
I THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE A BIG HELP, UM, WITH THE, UH, SITE ON THOSE TWO AREAS THAT, UM, IS YOU AND I RODE LAST YEAR.
UM, LAST FALL, I GUESS YOU COULD SEE, YOU JUST COULDN'T SEE THE ROAD WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW, AND IT WOULD, BOTH THOSE AREAS WERE AREAS EVERYBODY LIKES TO PASS IN AND CAN LEGALLY DO SO.
UM, SO I DO APPRECIATE THAT THE ROCK SCALING IS YOUR GEOLOGY GEOLOGISTS STILL IN THE LOOP OF THAT.
YES, HE WAS IN THE LOOP OF THAT.
WHEN WE DID THAT, THERE IS MORE TO DO, UH, IF YOU GO PAST THE KOA CAMP GROUNDS, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT LEDGE RIGHT THERE, CLOSER TO THE CATHERINE'S.
THAT'S WHY I WASN'T SURE IF, IF THAT WAS DONE AND THAT'S ALL THEY WERE GOING TO DO.
[00:10:01]
IT WAS, IT WAS DONE.WE TOOK THE FUNDS BECAUSE IT WAS THE, WHAT WE DEEMED THE MOST CRITICAL TO USE BETWEEN THE REFU SITE AND THE KOA CAMP BROWN.
THERE'S SOME TO BE DONE STILL AND SOME OTHER PLACES, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE AS CRITICAL AND WE'VE GOT TO SEE WHAT KIND OF FUNDS WE GET THIS COMING YEAR.
WELL, YOU KNOW, I NOTICED THAT WHEN THEY WERE DOING IT, UM, AND I'M GLAD TO KNOW IT'S NOT FINISHED.
CAUSE THEY, THEY DIDN'T GO TO THE TOP, THE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THEY HAD, WASN'T TALL ENOUGH TO REACH UP TO THE TOP.
SO I WASN'T, I WAS CURTAIN CERN BECAUSE I FELT LIKE THEY LOOSENED UP THE BOTTOM.
AND IS THAT GOING TO DESTABILIZE THE TOP THAT THEY COULDN'T REACH, LIKE GOING IN THE GROCERY STORE, PICKING OUT THE APPLE OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE PILE AND THE POWELL COMES, FALLEN DOWN TYPE THING.
UM, AND I DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WAS, IF THERE WAS AN INSPECTOR OR WHAT, WELL, YEAH, HE'S IN THE LOOP ON THAT.
ANY OTHER THING FOR BEAT ON AT THIS TIME? NO.
OTHER THAN I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU AGAIN, ED, FOR HELPING US OUT.
WE WILL SEE YOU AROUND 11 O'CLOCK THEN.
[E. Reports – Board Members, County Administrator, Interim County Attorney]
TO BOARD REPORTS AND MR. BUTLER.I HAVE NOTHING FOR THE MRS. COOK.
UH, YEAH, I JUST WANTED JUST TO, UM, UH, ANNOUNCED AGAIN THAT, UH, WE HAVE SEVERAL PUBLIC COMMISSION BOARD POSITIONS OPEN FOR APPOINTMENTS.
SO IF YOU KNOW ANYONE OR, OR IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN, UM, HELP SERVING OUR COMMUNITY, UM, YOU CAN PICK UP AN APPLICATION.
WE HAVE OF A COUPLE OF THEM OUT THERE.
YOU CAN PICK THEM UP AS YOU GO OUT.
AND, UM, IF THE THREE VACANCIES ARE, WE HAVE ONE THAT F AT THE AIRPORT, WE HAVE ONE VACANCY AT THE WARREN COUNTY AIRPORT.
WE HAVE TWO VACANCIES OPEN FOR THE EDA AND OUR THIRD ONE.
UH, WE HAVE THREE VACANCIES FOR THE NEW FINANCIAL AUDIT COMMITTEE AND WE'RE LOOKING FOR THREE PEOPLE TO, UM, UH, TO BE PART OF THAT.
AND, UM, THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO REPORT.
UM, I HAVE A NUMBER OF, OF THINGS TO REPORT THIS WEEK.
UM, THE FIRST IS THAT, UH, TODAY IS MASK LIBERATION DAY.
I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU GUYS KNOW THAT, BUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY, PEOPLE ARE RELEASING THEIR MASK AND THE MANDATE IS OVER.
AND SO IT'S VERY EXCITING FOR, FOR ESPECIALLY CHILDREN WHO GET TO SEE THEIR TEACHERS' FACES FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A VERY LONG TIME.
UM, AND WITH THAT PARKS AND REC AND A LOCAL ORGANIZATION HAVE ANNOUNCED THAT THEY ARE GOING TO HOST HOOPS AND SLICES ON MARCH 12TH FROM SIX TO 9:00 PM IN THE WARREN COUNTY, UM, PARKS AND REC 15TH STREET GYM.
THIS IS AN OPEN GYM FOR BASKETBALL, MELTING POT PIZZA.
THERE ARE GOING TO BE A, THERE'S ACTUALLY GOING TO BE A DJ.
AND, UM, THIS IS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, UH, AND IT'S BASICALLY A COMING BACK TOGETHER, WHICH I THINK IS A WONDERFUL, UH, WAY TO CELEBRATE MASS LIBERATION MONTH.
AND SO ANYWAY, UM, I WANTED TO ANNOUNCE THAT I ALSO WANTED TO SAY THAT, UM, WE HAD A JOINT MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THE SCHOOL BOARD, UM, AS COLORS AND MYSELF, ALONG WITH THE, UH, CHAIR AND THE VICE CHAIR OF THE SCHOOL BOARD MET.
AND, UH, WE DISCUSSED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ALONG WITH ANOTHER OF, UH, A NUMBER OF BUDGET ISSUES.
AND, UH, AS A RESULT OF THAT MEETING, THERE'S GOING TO BE A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THE SCHOOL BOARD REPRESENTATIVES IN TERMS OF BUDGET, UH, REVIEW.
SO I WILL BE SERVING IN THAT CAPACITY AND I BELIEVE THAT MS. COOK WILL BE SERVING WITH ME AS WELL.
UM, THE OTHER LET'S SEE, THE OTHER ITEM THAT I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT IS THE DRUG COURT.
UH, THE WARREN COUNTY AND FRONT ROYAL ARE WORKING TOGETHER TO ESTABLISH A DRUG COURT.
UH, THERE WILL BE A PRESENTATION IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE, AND WE WILL ANNOUNCE THE DATE AND TIME OF THAT PRESENTATION.
I BELIEVE THERE'S AN EFFORT TO PRESENT TO BOTH THE BOARD AND THE TOWN COUNCIL AT THE SAME TIME TO SAVE.
WHEN IS IT MARCH 10TH? SEE YOU ASK AND YOU FIND OUT THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ALREADY.
SO MARCH 10TH, AT WHAT TIME DR.
DALEY COMMITTEE 5:00 PM, 5:00 AM, PLEASE DON'T DO THAT TO US.
SO THE JOINT MEETING WILL BE MARCH 10TH AT SIX 30, AND THERE WILL BE A PRESENTATION, UH, WITH RESPECT TO THE DRUG COURT WHERE WE ARE IN THE FORMATION OF THE DRUG COURT.
UM, AND ALSO I'D LIKE TO MAKE A STATEMENT, UH, WITH RESPECT TO MULTIPLE CITIZEN INCREASE, INCLUDING
[00:15:01]
MR. TJX INQUIRY.THE MATTER OF HAND HAS BEEN SENT TO A NUMBER OF AUTHORITIES FOR INVESTIGATION, AND WE CAN NOT COMMENT UNTIL THE INVESTIGATION IS COMPLETE.
THAT'S ALL I HAVE CHAIRMAN, CHAIRMAN COLORS READY HERE, MADAM.
UM, ON FEBRUARY 23RD, I TESTIFIED IN THE STATE CORPORATION COMMISSION HEARING ON CENTURYLINK SERVICE.
AND I WANT TO THANK TODD JONES AND, UH, THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT, THEY GOT TOGETHER, THE INFORMATION I NEEDED ON THE DOWNTIME, UM, THAT HAPPENED WITH OUR NINE 11 SYSTEM TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE THAT TO THIS HEARING BOARD, AS WELL AS THE MULTITUDE OF OTHER ISSUES THAT, UM, WE AS CENTURY LINK, UM, CUSTOMERS HAVE BEEN SUFFERING THROUGH FOR QUITE A LONG TIME.
I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING BACK ON THAT.
I DID RECEIVE SOME INFORMATION FROM CHAIRMAN DONNA HAY, FROM RAPPAHANNOCK THAT SHE HAS HEARD FROM THEM.
AND I GOT AN EMAIL YESTERDAY WHERE SOMEONE HAS BEEN ASSIGNED TO WARREN COUNTY.
UM, SO SHE FEELS THAT THAT'S A POSITIVE MOVE AND I'M HOPING IT WILL BE TOO.
UM, THEY HAVE NOT REACHED OUT TO ME YET AT THIS TIME, BUT, UH, I LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING PUSHING OUR PROBLEMS TO THEM SO THAT HOPEFULLY WE GET SOME OF THOSE RESOLVED FEBRUARY 24TH.
I ATTENDED WORKFORCE CONSORTIUM MEETING IN HARRISONBURG.
I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THIS WAS, BUT DR.
AND, UM, THERE WAS A SPEAKER THERE THAT GAVE A LOT OF GOOD IDEAS ON WORKFORCE INITIATIVES.
AND, UM, I LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING ABOUT THAT MORE WITH OUR GROUP AND SEEING IF MAYBE WE CAN GET HER TO COME HERE AND TALK TO US ABOUT IT.
UM, SHE WAS QUITE THE, UH, INSPIRATIONAL PERSON ON THAT, UM, WAS SHE'S DOING, UM, FEBRUARY 24TH THAT EVENING I ATTENDED WITH MRS. OATES AND THE SCHOOL BOARD, THE LIAISON MEETING.
AND I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THEM COLLABORATIVELY, TO, UM, MOVE BOTH OF US IN A POSITIVE DIRECTION OF COMMUNICATION.
COMMUNICATION IS KEY TO EVERYTHING.
SO I LOOK FORWARD TO THAT TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH.
AND I, I, YOU KNOW, I STARTED TO LOOK UP WOMEN IN HISTORY THAT WERE, UM, MOTIVATIONAL AND INSPIRATIONAL AND MOVED US FORWARD.
AND, AND I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO GO WITH THE PEOPLE IN MY LIFE.
AND THE FIRST ONE WAS MY GREAT-GRANDMOTHER.
I SAW THAT WOMAN GET UP DAY AFTER DAY, SHE LIVED THROUGH THE GREAT DEPRESSION.
MY GRANDMOTHER, HER DAUGHTER WAS BORN IN 1918.
SO, UM, I HEARD HER TALK A LOT ABOUT THE DEPRESSION AND HOW THEY NEVER WENT HUNGRY BECAUSE THEY, THAT WOMAN WAS UP.
I ALWAYS SWORE I WAS GOING TO GET OUT OF BED BEFORE MY GRANDMA NEVER HAPPENED.
SHE COULD GET OUT OF THAT HOUSE.
AND IN THAT GARDEN, I NEVER HEARD HER.
UM, BUT SHE WAS ONE OF MY FIRST GREAT INSPIRATIONAL WOMEN.
AND MY GRANDMOTHER, WHO WAS MY GRANNY, SHE WAS A WIDOW AT 47.
AND THAT WOMAN WORKED AT AVTEX AND RETIRED FROM THEM.
AND SHE WAS THE BEST GRANNY IN THE WORLD.
UM, AND THEN I HAD MANY TEACHERS MRS. DEBBIE MANUAL, MRS. HUMBER, MRS. CARPER, ALL OF THEM, VERY INSPIRATIONAL.
I FELT LIKE SHE WAS A SERGEANT FROM THE MILITARY WHILE I WAS IN NURSING SCHOOL.
YOU COULDN'T HAVE A HAIR ON YOUR SHOULDER.
YOU KNOW, SHE CHECKED YOUR FINGERNAILS TO SEE IF THEY WERE FOR THE RIGHT LENGTH.
AND I THOUGHT, OH, MY WORD, WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES THIS MATTER TODAY? I WOULD GO AND LOOK AT THE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS AND I THINK, OH, EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE HAD HIM AS HIS CARPER.
SO I APPRECIATE HER MORE AND MORE.
THE OLDER I GET AND THE WORK ETHIC SHE INSTILLED IN ME.
UM, SO THOSE ARE MY MOTIVATIONAL WOMEN OF HISTORY.
MA'AM I HAD A NUMBER OF WOMEN TEACHERS WHO MOTIVATED ME, BUT USUALLY IT'S CAUSE I WAS IN TROUBLE.
UM, I WANTED TO REMIND THE BOARD OF OUR SCHEDULE FOR THE NEXT SIX WEEKS.
UH, WE HAVE THIS AFTERNOON AFTER THE REGULAR WORK SESSION, WE HAVE THE BUDGET WORK SESSION AND MATT WILL BE PRESENTING THE OVERVIEW OF WHERE THE BUDGET IS AT THIS POINT.
AND WHAT, UM, THE INDIVIDUAL DEPARTMENTS ARE.
WE CAN'T CLOSE THE BUDGET UNTIL WE KNOW THAT WHAT THE STATE DOES UNTIL WE GO TILL THEY GO HOME, NOTHING IS SAFE
[00:20:01]
ON THIRSTY TWO O'CLOCK.WE HAVE THE BUILDING COMMITTEE AND THEN AT SIX O'CLOCK WE HAVE THE TOWN COUNTY, UH, LAYERS ON MEETING WHERE WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT BUILDING PERMITS, TOURISM WATER UP ON THE 5 22 CORRIDOR.
AND NEXT TUESDAY WE HAVE PROBABLY NO DAY MEETING.
WE WILL JUST HAVE THE EVE WE HAVE EVENING WILL BE THE ONLY SESSION WE WILL NEED NEXT WEEK.
AND THEN, BECAUSE THAT WILL BE SIX O'CLOCK IS WHEN WE MEET WITH THE SCHOOL BOARD WEEK, THURSDAY, NEXT THURSDAY IS MRS. OATES MENTIONED FIVE O'CLOCK IS THE DRUG COMMITTEE.
AND SIX 30 IS THE TOWN COUNTY LIAISON ON MARCH THE 15TH.
WE HAVE OUR REGULAR MEETING AND THEN ON MARCH THE 22ND, WE WILL HAVE A SPECIAL MEETING FOR THE PURPOSE OF SCHEDULING THE PUB PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE BUDGET, AND THEN ONE OTHER PUBLIC HEARING, WHICH YOU WILL CONDUCT THAT EVENING.
AND THEN ON THE FIFTH, YOU HAVE THE REGULAR MEETING AND ON APRIL 12TH, YOU HAVE YOUR PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE BUDGET.
AND THE FOLLOWING WEEK, THE 19TH WOULD BE THE ADOPTION.
NOW WANTING TO GET ALL THOSE DATES ON EVERYBODY'S CALENDAR.
AND WHEN, OH, NOW MARCH 10TH, MAYBE I MISUNDERSTOOD THAT'S DRUG COURT AT FIVE O'CLOCK AND AT SIX 30, IT IS A JOINT MEETING TOWN COUNCIL, AND THE BOARD FOR DRUG COURT PRESENTATION.
DAILY, THE LIAISON MEETING IS FOR EVERYONE, THE COMMITTEE MEETING, UM, UM, MR. MAVEN, MYSELF REPRESENT THE COUNTY, UM, ON BEHALF OF THE DRUG, UH, PREVENTION COMMITTEE.
SO THAT'S AT 5:00 PM, BUT WE'LL DO THE PRESENTATION FOLLOWING THAT MEETING.
I JUST WAS, WHEN HE SAY COME LIAISON, IT CONFUSED ME.
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE GOT IT NOW.
DALEY, WHEN IS THE MEETING WITH THE FINANCIAL COMMITTEE TO REVIEW THE SCHOOL? BOARD'S BUDGET THAT, YEAH, THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING FOR YOU AND MRS. COOK TO LOOK AT THE DATES.
YOU'D LIKE, WE WANTED TO LET THEM PRESENT THE BUDGET AND LET EVERYBODY, UH, INDICATE THEIR CONCERNS SO THAT THEN YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT TO GO LOOK AT AFTER THE EIGHTH, BUT WE CAN DO IT ANY TIME THAT YOU'D LIKE THE 10TH GETS KIND OF BUSY IN THERE, BUT ANY OTHER DAY, ALL THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS WILL BE GOOD.
THAT WORKS FOR THE TWO OF YOU AND THE SCHOOL BOARD REPRESENTATIVES HAVE WE RECEIVED, UM, A LINE BY LINE FROM THE SWITCHBOARD.
BUT THE MEETING THAT WAS TENTATIVELY FOR TODAY HAS BEEN COUNSELED.
THERE WAS A, THERE WAS A PROPOSED MEETING FOR TODAY.
AND SO THAT HAS BEEN CANCELED.
I HAD THAT TENTATIVELY PENCILED IN, WE USED TO BE THIS EVENING AND WE, WE THOUGHT WERE, WE EXPECT, ANTICIPATE THAT YOU'LL BE HERE TILL AT LEAST THREE O'CLOCK THIS AFTERNOON.
I FIGURED THAT WAS PROBABLY GOING TO BE LONG ENOUGH.
YOU'D BE TIRED OF LOOKING AT US BY THEN, FOR THE DAY.
LET YOU GO BACK AND DO SOME REAL WORK.
DALEY, MR. HAM? I WOULD, I HAVE NO REAL REPORT, BUT I'D LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO REQUEST THAT THE AGENDA BE AMENDED TO, WITH RESPECT TO THE SECOND PARAGRAPH OF THE CLOSED SESSION, MOTION TO ADD AT THE VERY END OF THAT SECOND PARAGRAPH OF THE CLOSED SESSION, MOTION, AND A CLAIM REGARDING THE AIRPORT.
AND IF SOMEONE WOULD BE WILLING TO, UH, ADD THAT TO TODAY'S AGENDA AND THEN, AND THAT LANGUAGE WHEN THE TIME COMES OUT, APPRECIATE IT.
DO WE NEED TO AMEND THE AGENDA IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE THAT REQUEST? OKAY.
THEN AT THIS TIME, DO I HAVE A MOTION TO AMEND THE AGENDA, TO ADD A CLAIM REGARDING AIRPORT TO OUR CLOSED SESSION? SO MOVED
[00:25:01]
SECOND, SECOND.CAN I ASK, UM, JASON QUICK QUESTION, JASON, THERE WAS AN ARTICLE YESTERDAY ABOUT, UM, A $26 BILLION OPIOID SETTLEMENT WITH RESPECT TO A NUMBER OF DRUG COMPANIES AND, UM, ACTUALLY ATTORNEY GENERAL.
MY RAS ANNOUNCED THAT YESTERDAY.
DO YOU HAVE ANY UNDERSTANDING, I KNOW THAT YOU HAD SOME UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THIS WAS GOING TO BE, UH, DELIVERED TO THE LOCALITIES.
AND I, WHAT I'M TELLING YOU IS, IS, UM, IS PUBLIC, I BELIEVE SO WE CAN JUST DO IT RIGHT NOW.
UM, WE HAD SOME PRELIMINARY NUMBERS SHOWING WHAT WARREN COUNTY WOULD GET AND I DON'T HAVE THEM IN FRONT OF ME.
I THINK IT WAS, UM, I THINK IT WAS A MILLION AND A HALF.
I'M NOT POSITIVE THAT THAT'S THE NUMBER AT THE END OF THE DAY.
UM, IT USED PART OF IT MIGHT HAVE CHANGED.
UM, BASICALLY THE, THE SETTLEMENTS, THE MONEY SHOULD COME IN AS EARLY AS APRIL, IT'S GOING TO BE PAID OVER 10 YEARS, BUT IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE AS TAKING ONE AND A HALF MILLION AND THEN DIVIDING IT BY THE 10.
UM, BECAUSE PARTS OF IT ARE BEING PAID OVER SHORTER PERIODS OF TIME.
AND THEN SOME OF IT'S PAID OVER 10 YEARS.
SOME OF IT'S PAID, IT'S INCREDIBLY COMPLICATED.
SOME OF IT'S CONTINGENT AND BASICALLY THESE BUSINESSES THAT SELL OPIOIDS ARE GONNA CONTINUE TO MAKE MONEY AND SHARE SOME OF THOSE PROFITS AS PART OF THE SETTLEMENT, YOU KNOW, THAT COULD, IT COULD BE DIFFERENT.
UM, AND, UM, THERE, THE NUMBER I JUST GAVE YOU OF THE ONE AND A HALF MILLION MIGHT ALSO BE DIFFERENT BECAUSE TOWNS WERE EXCLUDED FROM THIS.
AND, UH, AND OF COURSE IN VIRGINIA TOWN IS PART OF A COUNTY.
UM, AND AT THE ABSOLUTE 11TH HOUR FROM, FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, AND I'M NOT YOUR LAWYER THAT IS PROSECUTING THE OPIOID STUFF.
ACTUALLY SHENANDOAH COUNTY HAS A SEPARATE LAW FIRM THAN YOU GUYS DO, BUT I'VE HEARD FROM THESE FOLKS AND, AND LEARNED A BIT, THEY SEND ASHLEY SHENDO COUNTY'S LAWYER SENDS, UM, MAYBE TWICE A MONTH, SOME UPDATES ON WHAT'S GOING ON.
I DON'T HEAR SO MUCH ABOUT THE OTHER, BUT, UM, SO THE, UM, ONE OF THE DRUG COMPANIES OF COURSE WANTED TO ELIMINATE DEFENDANTS THAT MIGHT SUE THEM OUTSIDE OF THE CLASS ACTION AND SO REQUIRED THAT TOWNS OVER 10,000, WHICH INCLUDED FRONT ROYAL, HAD TO SIGN ONTO THIS.
AND THAT CAME WITH THAT HERE, SIGN ONTO THIS, BUT YOU GET NO MONEY.
AND THERE WAS SOME DEAL DONE THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DETAILS ARE THAT MIGHT'VE REDUCED THAT POT FROM WARREN COUNTY'S PERSPECTIVE, SOMEWHAT TO PAY FRONT ROYAL AND SIMILAR SITUATED TOWNS, BUT THAT CRITICAL MASS.
SO BASICALLY IF A HUNDRED PERCENT PARTICIPATION WASN'T ACHIEVED, THE ACTUAL OVERALL SETTLEMENT REDUCED BY ABOUT 40%.
MOST OF THE MONEY IS GOING TO THE COMMONWEALTH.
UM, I THINK IT'S 85% OF THE MONEY IS GOING TO THE COMMONWEALTH WITH THE COUNTY CITIES AND TOWNS ARE GETTING 15% DIRECTLY.
THERE'S GOING TO BE THIS OPIOID ABATEMENT AUTHORITY THAT'S ALREADY SET UP AND WARREN COUNTY CAN APPLY TO GET MONEY FROM THAT.
THAT'S ONE OF ITS MAIN FUNCTIONS IS TO DOLE OUT MORE MONEY.
SO I UNDERSTAND YOU GUYS MIGHT BE DOING A DRUG COURT, ET CETERA.
SO SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE THAT'LL BE A PROJECT FOR YOUR ADMINISTRATION OR POSSIBLY ME TO TRY TO GET SOME MORE OUT OF THAT.
UM, DON'T HAVE THE FULL DETAILS OF THAT JUST YET.
AND AGAIN, THOSE NUMBERS YOU'RE CATCHING ME COLD, AND I'M NOT THE ONE THAT ACTUALLY PROSECUTED THE CASE, BUT THAT, THAT IS THE OVERVIEW OF WHAT'S HAPPENING.
UM, AND YOU ALL HAVE ALL APPROVED EVERYTHING.
I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE TO BE DONE, UH, AND YOU SHOULD BE GETTING MONEY.
UM, BUT AGAIN, IT'S A LITTLE BIT LOOSEY GOOSEY YOU IS EXACTLY WHAT THE AMOUNTS ARE.
UM, BUT THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE'S AGREED TO.
APPRECIATE THAT LEVEL OF DETAIL, EVEN IF I DID CATCH A COLD, BECAUSE I JUST READ IT YESTERDAY.
I THINK AIG MINORITIES, UH, AGREED TO ACCEPT THE SETTLEMENT AMOUNT YESTERDAY.
I THINK THAT WAS A FORMALITY AND HE HAD DONE THAT.
AND THEN THEY DID SAY THAT DELIVERY OF THE MONEY WOULD TAKE PLACE SOMETIME AROUND APRIL 20, 22 AND WITH THE DRUG PREVENTION COMMITTEE, VERY, I MEAN, WE'VE BEEN CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THIS SO THAT WE COULD CAPTURE SOME OF THAT MONEY TO HELP OUR DRUG COURT FORMATION.
I WANTED TO SEE IF YOU HAD ANY FURTHER INSIGHT INTO HOW THAT WAS GONNA BE.
THAT THAT'S THE INSIGHT I HAVE.
AND I, AGAIN, I DON'T REPRESENT WARREN COUNTY WITH RESPECT TO THAT LITIGATION AND THAT'S A CHAT PETERSON, DIFFERENT ATTORNEY, THAT'S HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT Y'ALL GET PAID.
[00:30:01]
INFORMATION I GAVE YOU WAS, UM, I GOT FROM SHENANDOAH COUNTY'S ATTORNEY AND SHENDRO COUNTY AND WARREN COUNTY ARE SIMILAR SIZE.UH, AND SO THAT'S WHERE PART OF MY ESTIMATE COMES FROM.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR MR. HAM? OKAY.
[F. Approval of Minutes – Regular Meeting of February 15, 2022]
ON TO APPROVAL OF MINUTES.THE REGULAR MEETING OF FEBRUARY 15, 20, 22.
ARE THERE ANY ADDITIONS OR DELETIONS OR CORRECTIONS TO THOSE MINUTES, IF NOT AS HER EMOTION TO APPROVE AS PRESENTED.
SO MOVED SECOND, SECOND ROLL CALL.
I MADAM CHAIR, I MRS. OATES, MR. BUTLER CONSENT
[G. Consent Agenda]
AGENDA.ARE THERE ANY ITEMS TO BE PULLED FOR DISCUSSION ON THE CONSENT AGENDA HEARING I'D LIKE TO PULL NUMBER ONE, JUST, UM, FOR THIS TO BE CLARIFIED.
IS THERE, UM, A MOTION TO APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA REMOVING NUMBER ONE FOR DISCUSSION.
ROLL CALL, MRS. SHIRAKI MR. BUTLER, MRS. OATS.
[G.1. Donation of Two (2) Warren County Sheriff’s Office Vehicles to Warren County Public Schools – Alisa Scott/Sheriff Mark Butler]
SHERIFF, I JUST WANTED, IF YOU COULD TRY AND BE TRANSPARENT AND ACCOUNTABLE, I JUST WANT YOU TO EXPLAIN THE PROCESS THAT YOU WENT THROUGH HERE.WHAT WE HAVE IS WE HAVE ANIMAL CONTROL VEHICLES THAT DON'T MEET THE NEW UPCOMING STANDARDS.
UM, SO THAT'S WHY WE BOUGHT AN F150 LAST YEAR, TOOK US A YEAR TO GET IT IN PLACE.
THE ALL VIA ALL DOGS PICKED UP, HAD TO BE CLIMATIZED.
I SAID, WE CAN'T THROW THEM IN THE BACK OF TRUCKS.
THE OTHER THING IS THESE TRUCKS HAD VERY HIGH MILEAGE.
ONE HAD A TRANSMISSION GOING OUT, UH, THEY'RE NOT PURSUIT RATED.
SO THEY REALLY PUTTING THEM BACK IN MY FLEET.
ISN'T UM, A GOOD COST EFFECTIVE THING FOR ME.
UM, SO AS I'M DOWN TALKING TO JERRY AT THE BUS SHOP, THE BUS SHOP HAS BEEN AMAZING.
THEY'VE SAVED US OVER $50,000 THIS YEAR.
UM, WITH, WITH OUR VEHICLES, IT'S BEEN, THEY'VE BEEN A GREAT HELP TO US.
AND I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE SCHOOL BUS MECHANIC SHOP.
UM, PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT I'VE RUN ACROSS IN THIS COUNTY SINCE BEING SHERIFF.
UM, AS THEY'RE DOWN THERE, THEY HAVE VERY DEPLETED, UM, SNOW REMOVAL VEHICLES AND SO FORTH.
SO HE HAD MENTIONED A SHERIFF, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH THESE TRUCKS? UM, WHEN I CAME INTO THE OFFICE, HALF OF MY FOUR WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES, TOWELS AND SO FORTH WERE ALREADY TURNED OVER TO THE SCHOOL BUS SHOP.
SO THAT WAS, AND WE WERE LIKE, WELL, WE NEED THESE VEHICLES BACK.
UM, WE GOT THEM FIXED, GOT THEM ON THE ROAD AND IT'S HELPED US MAKE IT THROUGH THE, THE LAST TWO YEARS.
UM, BUT HAVING THESE TWO TRUCKS IN OUR FLEET MAKES NO SENSE.
WE WERE ABLE TO SAVE TWO OF THEM, PUT ONE IN CIVIL ENFORCEMENT.
UM, AND THE OTHER ONE IS GOING FOR OUR, UM, EVIDENCE BURN.
SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO SMELL IT AS THEY DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD.
WE CAN PUT IT IN THE BACK OF THE TRUCK, UH, THAT WE'RE GOING TO KEEP THOSE TWO, BUT WE HAD TWO, OTHERS WERE TAKING THE DODGE RAM THAT I CURRENTLY DRIVE.
WE'RE TURNING THAT INTO AN ACO TRUCK TO SAVE MORE MONEY.
UM, SO WHEN JERRY CAME TO ME AND SAID, HEY, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THESE? I SAID, WELL, I GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO GET HER OXFAM OFF.
AND WE WERE THINKING ABOUT TURNING THEM BACK TO THE COUNTY, CAUSE I KNOW PARKS AND RECS AND SO FORTH.
JERRY SAID, WELL, I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I'LL DO.
I'LL BUILD YOUR NEXT REVIEW VEHICLES FOR YOU.
AND IT WON'T COST YOU A NON, THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, A DIME.
WELL, TO ME, THAT'S ABOUT A 25, $30,000, UM, SAVINGS.
SO WE DID WHAT BEEN GOING ON IN WARREN COUNTY FOR DECADES.
AND HE SAID, ALL RIGHT, GOOD DEAL.
AND WE DID IT CAUSE WE DIDN'T, THERE ARE NO POLICIES FOR THAT.
WE'RE ABLE TO RECYCLE SOME OF THE VEHICLES TO KEEP BACK INTO OUR COUNTY, TO SAVE OUR COUNTY RESIDENTS MONEY.
I THINK IT'S VERY SMART TO DO.
I'M VERY PROUD OF THE WAY WE HAVE CHUCKY AND ALL MY DEPUTIES
[00:35:01]
HAVE WORKED TO SAVE OUR COUNTY MONEY AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.THAT'S WHERE WE ARE WITH THE VEHICLES.
I JUST, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE DO THINGS LIKE THIS AND THE PUBLIC, I WAS CONFUSED ON IT.
SO I FIGURED THE PUBLIC IS AS WELL.
AND LIKE I SAID, I WANT TO CLARIFY THINGS AS MUCH AS I CAN TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE TRYING TO BE TRANSPARENT AND ACCOUNTABLE.
SO I APPRECIATE, UM, YEAH, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE, I WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO SO.
UH, WE'D DONE IT BEFORE, UH, FOR MY NOW WE AS THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, UH, BECAUSE THE LAST TIME WE TRADED VEHICLES WAS WITH FREDERICK COUNTY, THE KAYAK AND THE, IN THE ONE TRUCK AND I, AND WE CAME IN FRONT OF THE BOARD.
UM, SO I ASSUMED THAT THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN.
UM, BUT WE WERE TOLD NO BECAUSE THERE WAS NO POLICY TO DO INNER INNER EXCHANGE.
UM, BUT I I'VE SEEN, LIKE I SAID, THAT THE SCHOOL BUS SHOP, UH, THE MECHANIC SHOP, THEY, THEY NEED EQUIPMENT AND IN THE, AS MUCH WORK AS THEY'VE DONE FOR US TO KEEP US GOING, UM, I, I CAN'T THANK THEM ENOUGH, SO TO SAVE MONEY AND GIVE THEM THE TOOL, HELP THEM GET THE TOOLS AND STUFF, THEY NEED TO DO THEIR JOB TO MAKE US SAFER.
WELL THANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATION.
AND IS THERE A MOTION TO, IF I CAN ADD SOMETHING TO THIS, UM, AS THE SHERIFF HAS SAID THAT, AND IT'S ALSO DOCUMENTED HERE IN OUR, UM, OUR PACKAGE THAT AT THIS TIME THAT WE DON'T HAVE A PROCEDURE FOR ANY DISPOSITION OF SURPLUS MATURED.
