WEBVTT 00:00:00.322 --> 00:00:09.204 - to call to order this work session of the Monroe County Board of Commissioners. We're going to add an 00:00:09.204 --> 00:00:18.174 - item at the end regarding the SUDAC budget, so just for reference for folks. And in the interim, while 00:00:18.174 --> 00:00:27.230 - I'm waiting for this to load, let's hear from the Parks Department, Ms. Whitmer, about nature preserve. 00:00:29.474 --> 00:00:36.882 - Well, I want to talk to you before we really start going down this path to see if this is the path you 00:00:36.882 --> 00:00:44.147 - want to travel. I think you will. We've been working very closely with US Fish and Wildlife Service. 00:00:44.147 --> 00:00:51.340 - And they don't use the word grant. They said it's not a grant. It's just money or programs. However 00:00:51.340 --> 00:00:57.022 - you want to look at it. And we want to plant trees. We want to plant prairies. 00:00:57.122 --> 00:01:02.958 - We're going to be responsible for some money. They're going to be responsible for most of the money. 00:01:02.958 --> 00:01:08.736 - And when I wrote this, this was Tuesday of this week, they called me late last night and said, Hey, 00:01:08.736 --> 00:01:14.515 - we might have another $50,000 for you. Okay, that will require our staff to rearrange and we'd have 00:01:14.515 --> 00:01:20.062 - to rearrange our priorities. But this is a one in lifetime opportunity. This 50 is just because 00:01:20.642 --> 00:01:26.604 - of their financial year is closing down and they're trying to gather money and looking at shovel-ready 00:01:26.604 --> 00:01:32.393 - projects, which, hey, we're the most shovel-ready project there is, plus they think this is once in 00:01:32.393 --> 00:01:38.239 - a lifetime opportunity for Monroe County with this particular piece of property. So in the end, I'll 00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:44.259 - keep this short, and this is fast math because we have to do all the math and we're gonna get this done 00:01:44.259 --> 00:01:47.038 - this week, bring it back to you with contracts. 00:01:47.234 --> 00:01:53.604 - It could be 75 acres of trees. It could be 15 acres of prairie. It could be the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 00:01:53.604 --> 00:01:59.850 - pays $66,000. It could be we pay only $19,000 with our park labor. They actually might bring in some 00:01:59.850 --> 00:02:06.282 - of their labor to help us because this is not what we were planning on Tuesday. This is Wednesday. Now, 00:02:06.282 --> 00:02:12.652 - this is Thursday. This is all great news for the Nature Preserve because we are always planning to put 00:02:12.652 --> 00:02:15.806 - more trees in, always planning to put prairies in. 00:02:16.258 --> 00:02:23.745 - We just have to figure out how to manage it and how to maintain it with also the funds from the trust. 00:02:23.745 --> 00:02:31.378 - And that's going to have to hire people to we all realize that we just have to move faster and different 00:02:31.378 --> 00:02:38.720 - now. But we want to make sure this is the path that you all think is good for the nature preserve. I 00:02:38.720 --> 00:02:41.918 - like the word path. Yes. This is brilliant. 00:02:42.210 --> 00:02:50.399 - It's brilliant and cannot thank you enough for being so creative in thinking about this. And I know 00:02:50.399 --> 00:02:59.079 - there's been a lot of discussion about what goes where, when, and how, and you've got that sort of mapped 00:02:59.079 --> 00:03:07.349 - out in a big way, right? And to me, this is just such a great opportunity and rarely does news about 00:03:07.349 --> 00:03:11.198 - funding get better over time. So glom onto it. 00:03:11.490 --> 00:03:17.458 - I'm on board. I'm on board personally. Do you have questions or comments? No, I'm definitely on board. 00:03:17.458 --> 00:03:23.483 - This is awesome. Thank you. OK. And County Legal is also going to put an exhibit to any agreements that 00:03:23.483 --> 00:03:29.682 - we make with US Fish and Wildlife to talk about the Huntington Trust and recreational purposes. So they're 00:03:29.682 --> 00:03:35.592 - aware of where we are in the world and where they're in the world. And everything we're doing is also 00:03:35.592 --> 00:03:39.358 - getting proofread, as I said, or by the Indiana State Biologist. 00:03:39.522 --> 00:03:46.121 - So we have the U.S. biologists, the state biologists, all free, helping us out. And Monroe County Soil 00:03:46.121 --> 00:03:52.719 - and Water has been instrumental in bringing everyone together. And I have to say, you moving them into 00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:59.382 - the showers building has been very advantageous for us being physically close. So I can find them every 00:03:59.382 --> 00:04:05.789 - day. And I've heard the same from Stormwater and I've heard the same from them about Stormwater and 00:04:05.789 --> 00:04:07.262 - parks and planning and 00:04:07.778 --> 00:04:15.822 - It's huge. I mean, it's just, I'm so glad it worked out. I'm so grateful. It is good. And like I said, 00:04:15.822 --> 00:04:23.710 - we are also working with pheasants and quail forever in the Turkey Federation. Purdue University has 00:04:23.710 --> 00:04:31.520 - helped us out. Monroe Lake Watershed Group has been involved immensely in stormwater. Oh, Erica was 00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:34.878 - there. So everyone's pitching in for free. 00:04:35.522 --> 00:04:41.948 - We probably have the best minds in the entire state here figuring out what we should do, when we should 00:04:41.948 --> 00:04:48.126 - do it, and how we should do it. So I'm getting a lot of calls from the neighbors and whatnot. And I 00:04:48.126 --> 00:04:54.491 - keep promising them. I said, we have the best advice. It's going to be absolutely gorgeous. It's going 00:04:54.491 --> 00:05:00.916 - to take a few years. Everyone set tight. I may have to move priorities around to stay within my budget. 00:05:00.916 --> 00:05:03.326 - Everyone just hold on. It'll get done. 00:05:03.586 --> 00:05:10.090 - I think it's just fabulous and I welcome the opportunity to review a contract about this. And I mean, 00:05:10.090 --> 00:05:16.594 - because I know, for example, Martha Miller at Soil and Water Conservation District is a big, huge fan 00:05:16.594 --> 00:05:23.034 - of the prairie grasses and the prairie growth, the flowers and their pollinators. I mean, it's just, 00:05:23.034 --> 00:05:29.602 - you do have the best experience and minds working on this, including your own. I know you wouldn't say 00:05:29.602 --> 00:05:30.750 - that, but I will. 00:05:31.202 --> 00:05:38.047 - you understand parks, you understand the community in a way that a state biologist might not too. So 00:05:38.047 --> 00:05:45.027 - I appreciate that. Oh, and another thing is we've also be coming with a contract with we have a farmer 00:05:45.027 --> 00:05:52.007 - that is working with the trust, but we also need to work with this farmer to plant beans to leave, not 00:05:52.007 --> 00:05:59.258 - to harvest. County legal has looked this over and everything is OK because this helps prepare our prairies 00:05:59.258 --> 00:06:00.478 - and our trees and 00:06:00.994 --> 00:06:07.679 - to make sure all the animals have enough food. So you'll be seeing that contract come through and you 00:06:07.679 --> 00:06:14.298 - go, why are we doing this? It's all part of the environmental plan. I appreciate you're able to spin 00:06:14.298 --> 00:06:21.180 - so many plates at one time and get such a great result. No other questions? Good. Yeah. All right. We'll 00:06:21.180 --> 00:06:27.799 - keep going. You'll see them. Thank you. That's really good news. I'm excited. Absolutely. All right. 00:06:27.799 --> 00:06:30.814 - And be sure to take a lot of before pictures. 00:06:31.074 --> 00:06:39.888 - you know, like drone shots or whatever, because it's going to look really different. It's going to be 00:06:39.888 --> 00:06:48.787 - beautiful. Yeah. All right. Next resolution 2026-10B. Would you go ahead and make a motion to approve? 00:06:48.787 --> 00:06:57.774 - I would like to approve resolution 2026-10B, amendment regarding transfer property to the Monroe County 00:06:57.774 --> 00:07:00.798 - Capital Improvement Board. Second. 00:07:04.066 --> 00:07:10.797 - Yes. And, uh, Jeff Cockerill, Monroe County legal department, uh, at the last meeting you approved the 00:07:10.797 --> 00:07:17.724 - resolution 10. Um, this is 10 B we did at that meeting. We did, we had a request to meet with my sister's 00:07:17.724 --> 00:07:24.325 - closet and the capital improvement board. I will say that did occur. And what I'm about to say is an 00:07:24.325 --> 00:07:30.991 - outcome of, of, you know, kind of the discussion that we had, what I had with the capital improvement 00:07:30.991 --> 00:07:33.278 - board. Um, they were asking about, 00:07:33.634 --> 00:07:39.600 - really two things and one of them made it into this and apparently I did not forward the most up-to-date 00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:45.793 - version when I sent this in so I'll tell you about that but there were two things one was what it references 00:07:45.793 --> 00:07:51.702 - sort of our historic properties historic districts and things like that working with John Baten talking 00:07:51.702 --> 00:07:57.555 - to him that's not that's that's not clear that these properties have that kind of historic designation 00:07:57.555 --> 00:07:59.998 - so we're taking that out of the resolution 00:08:00.802 --> 00:08:08.067 - in a day if it does, it does, right? But it certainly is not clear to be right now. And then the second 00:08:08.067 --> 00:08:15.122 - is there was an inconsistency with the potential to transfer that day. The whereas clauses says when 00:08:15.122 --> 00:08:22.317 - the justice center is complete, the actual language in the ordinance said after the November election, 00:08:22.317 --> 00:08:27.486 - kind of want to make that both read after the justice center is complete. 00:08:28.322 --> 00:08:33.730 - just internally consistent with the documents, I will say that the CIV would rather work out an arrangement 00:08:33.730 --> 00:08:38.787 - with the with the board of commissioners and the county to get that transferred earlier and preserve 00:08:38.787 --> 00:08:43.994 - that kind of preserve the parking needs that the county would have through a contract or something like 00:08:43.994 --> 00:08:48.851 - that, as opposed to delaying the transfer. But that but this would allow that to happen as well. 00:08:48.851 --> 00:08:52.606 - So I mean, it says you may withhold it. It doesn't say you have to. Right. 00:08:58.498 --> 00:09:05.372 - Was there something about your conversation with? Oh, I mean, it was an initial conversation. I think 00:09:05.372 --> 00:09:12.179 - it was clear that the C.I.B. had the C.I.B. didn't have the full board there. They have. They really 00:09:12.179 --> 00:09:18.986 - and it was clear that the leadership at that meeting hadn't talked with the rest of the members. And 00:09:18.986 --> 00:09:25.995 - so they were just it was kind of fact finding. I think it went really well. I actually between meetings 00:09:25.995 --> 00:09:27.006 - was talking to 00:09:27.842 --> 00:09:34.001 - our building commissioner, because there are some questions about timing and timelines that came out 00:09:34.001 --> 00:09:40.039 - of that meeting. I think I talked with some other local landlords in the downtown area, including, 00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:46.442 - you know, what do we have as far as some kind of interim use for a couple months? So there's some moving 00:09:46.442 --> 00:09:52.785 - parts there, but it was a good, I guess we delineated the needs very well, the needs of the my sister's 00:09:52.785 --> 00:09:55.102 - closets and kind of where the CID is. 00:09:55.490 --> 00:10:00.956 - in terms of their process. So we're trying to work and see how those will all get together. I think 00:10:00.956 --> 00:10:06.751 - everybody left the meeting fairly positive, but knowing that there weren't any decisions made and there's 00:10:06.751 --> 00:10:12.436 - a lot of work to have. Sure. And of course, yeah, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that we'll 00:10:12.436 --> 00:10:18.066 - do what we can. If there's anything we can do as a county to help provide a temporary space or storage 00:10:18.066 --> 00:10:23.806 - or something, if that's what they need, we'll figure it out. I mean, it's such a great organization, but 00:10:23.906 --> 00:10:30.659 - But really the fact that they we gave them a reduction in rents and then it's it's we've been as as 00:10:30.659 --> 00:10:37.479 - kind and generous as we could be to help them get into their new location, which is also going to be 00:10:37.479 --> 00:10:44.300 - very exciting. But and then on the historic side, this doesn't preclude the city of Bloomington from 00:10:44.300 --> 00:10:51.188 - a historic investigation into the buildings, but it doesn't require it because this isn't necessarily 00:10:51.188 --> 00:10:52.606 - a historic district. 00:10:53.154 --> 00:10:59.766 - Correct. Taking that out doesn't change any processes that are available to anybody. It's just not having 00:10:59.766 --> 00:11:06.003 - the conclusion that hasn't been made yet included in the document. Got it. Thank you. Thank you for 00:11:06.003 --> 00:11:12.303 - that. All right. Do you have any comments or questions? Yes, I'd really hate to see any interruption 00:11:12.303 --> 00:11:19.102 - in services for those who use my sister's closet. That really is such an integral service for the community. 00:11:19.266 --> 00:11:27.972 - And I echo you and we'll do everything we can. And I'm glad that we don't have to bind the CIB's hands. 00:11:27.972 --> 00:11:36.427 - I do hope that the city will investigate any avenue it can, particularly for housing. Yeah, that was 00:11:36.427 --> 00:11:41.534 - our big concern, really. Absolutely. And our hands are tied. 00:11:41.666 --> 00:11:47.550 - because we are not a housing authority. And of course, we don't have those powers, but I'd like to see 00:11:47.550 --> 00:11:53.320 - that outcome very much. So thank you. That may be what the CIB does. But it may not be. But at least 00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:59.261 - we put it out there that that's our interest and that is our concern. Yes. And again, I think they have 00:11:59.261 --> 00:12:05.374 - to transfer that to the city to really effectuate that purpose. Right. Right. CIB cannot do that. Correct. 00:12:05.954 --> 00:12:14.444 - Thank you. All right. Let's see if there's any public comment on this. I have you raise your hand teams 00:12:14.444 --> 00:12:22.770 - or come to the podium. And we don't have to ratify this since it's an amendment. I think you're fine. 00:12:22.770 --> 00:12:29.790 - It's really more of a covering up for the attorney's mistake. Covering your attorney. 00:12:30.338 --> 00:12:42.683 - All right, seeing none. All those in favor of resolution 2026-10B signify by saying aye. Aye. Motion 00:12:42.683 --> 00:12:55.028 - carries to zero. Thank you for bringing that to us. Next we have a planning presentation. Mr. Smith, 00:12:55.028 --> 00:12:58.206 - are you? Oh, there he is. 00:12:59.106 --> 00:13:08.565 - Okay, hello, good morning. Oh, you are muted. There you go. Okay, can you hear me now. Okay, perfect. 00:13:08.565 --> 00:13:17.374 - All right. Good morning commissioners TSD, if you could promote me so I could share my screen. 00:13:33.442 --> 00:13:42.550 - the commissioners see the screen okay we sure can thank you okay um good morning commissioners the request 00:13:42.550 --> 00:13:51.318 - before you is an outline plan amendment the second one to be exact which pertains to the highlands pud 00:13:51.318 --> 00:13:59.916 - specifically for parcel e also known as links edge subdivision or perhaps more commonly known as the 00:13:59.916 --> 00:14:01.278 - wick apartments 00:14:02.914 --> 00:14:11.859 - And this is a fairly long report, so I will be jumping around just a bit here. The site is located off 00:14:11.859 --> 00:14:20.717 - of South Rockport Road in Perry Township, with the inner streets being South Lincoln Street and South 00:14:20.717 --> 00:14:29.749 - Rangeview Circle. Going to jump around again here. So the image on the screen gives you a better layout 00:14:29.749 --> 00:14:32.094 - of what it is that you are 00:14:32.482 --> 00:14:40.032 - Voting on, so for this purpose of the outline plan amendment south range view circle is the street before 00:14:40.032 --> 00:14:47.225 - you that you will be voting on whether to grant the petitioners request to make range view a private 00:14:47.225 --> 00:14:54.348 - road. Should the commissioners vote to deny the petitioners request range view circle would stay as 00:14:54.348 --> 00:14:59.262 - a planned public road required to meet all public road improvements. 00:15:00.610 --> 00:15:09.395 - And I'm going to jump around again here to provide a little background on this petition. I did want 00:15:09.395 --> 00:15:18.531 - to note that this subdivision is part of the Highlands PUD, which is a PUD that was originally approved 00:15:18.531 --> 00:15:25.822 - under the city of Bloomington planning jurisdiction in 1996 under ordinance 96-05. 00:15:26.626 --> 00:15:33.319 - In 2018, the developer did receive approval for the current subdivision and development plan with a 00:15:33.319 --> 00:15:40.145 - revision to the outline plan having been approved by the Monroe County Board of Commissioners to have 00:15:40.145 --> 00:15:46.838 - a reduced front setback from 25 to 15 feet. It was during this time that the developer preferred to 00:15:46.838 --> 00:15:53.665 - have Rangeview Circle become a private road versus a public road. However, when this was presented to 00:15:53.665 --> 00:15:55.070 - the plan commission, 00:15:55.362 --> 00:16:03.477 - There were concerns that were raised over the course of that process about placing an economic burden 00:16:03.477 --> 00:16:11.513 - on the future presidents of that subdivision to pay to maintain the roadway should the developer opt 00:16:11.513 --> 00:16:19.787 - to sell that property either to an HOA or another private entity. As such, the intent to make Rangeview 00:16:19.787 --> 00:16:24.958 - Circle a private road never made it into the final outline plan. 00:16:25.314 --> 00:16:32.739 - and therefore the road was approved to become a public road, which the developer did agree to at that 00:16:32.739 --> 00:16:40.527 - time. The planning commission forwarded a positive recommendation seven to one to the county commissioners 00:16:40.527 --> 00:16:48.024 - on October 18th, 2018. And the county commissioners approved that outline plan amendment to reduce the 00:16:48.024 --> 00:16:54.430 - front setback from 25 to 15 feet on December 5th, 2018. And that was under ordinance 28 00:16:54.530 --> 00:17:03.854 - 18-34. The current petition request first began in 2023. However, the petition was withdrawn for reasons 00:17:03.854 --> 00:17:13.355 - unknown to planning. It wasn't until November of 2025 that the petitioner came back to planning to restart 00:17:13.355 --> 00:17:19.038 - this request. And that is the request that is before you today. 00:17:20.546 --> 00:17:28.212 - This petition did receive extensive review and discussion over the past few months, going to ordinance 00:17:28.212 --> 00:17:35.952 - review committee on December 8th, 2025, the planning commission administrative meeting on February 3rd, 00:17:35.952 --> 00:17:43.544 - 2026, and the preliminary planning commission regular session on February 17th, 2026. And I will jump 00:17:43.544 --> 00:17:44.958 - around here again. 00:17:48.578 --> 00:17:55.801 - Because the petitioner's request of waiver of final hearing was denied, this petition was heard again 00:17:55.801 --> 00:18:03.378 - at the Plan Commission administrative meeting on March 3rd, 2026, and the Plan Commission regular session, 00:18:03.378 --> 00:18:10.459 - also known as its final hearing, on March 17th, 2026. So during the Plan Commission meetings, there 00:18:10.459 --> 00:18:17.470 - were extensive and spirited discussions regarding the construction and intent of this development. 00:18:17.890 --> 00:18:26.201 - including a number of deficiencies that are currently an issue with this development. Much of this discussion 00:18:26.201 --> 00:18:33.983 - ultimately led staff to create a visual aid to help illustrate what exactly these deficiencies are and 00:18:33.983 --> 00:18:42.143 - where they are located. So the deficiencies on your screen are taken directly from the Highway Department's 00:18:42.143 --> 00:18:42.974 - inspection 00:18:43.170 --> 00:18:50.290 - were they noted deficiencies that needed to be corrected before they would accept Rangeview Circle into 00:18:50.290 --> 00:18:57.137 - the county road inventory. Planning did sit down with the petitioner and the petitioner's engineer, 00:18:57.137 --> 00:19:04.052 - petitioner's engineer being Daniel Butler with Bynum Vanyo to see what or if any public improvements 00:19:04.052 --> 00:19:10.899 - they were willing to make as part of their request to make Rangeview a private road. And you'll see 00:19:10.899 --> 00:19:12.542 - the items on the screen 00:19:12.738 --> 00:19:23.439 - In red being improvements the petitioner is unwilling to make. And then the improvements in green being 00:19:23.439 --> 00:19:33.729 - that the public improvements the petitioner is willing to make as part of their request. And you'll 00:19:33.729 --> 00:19:37.022 - see on the screen I have made a 00:19:37.346 --> 00:19:46.660 - planning map here, just identifying the areas of concern, the deficiencies specifically that the petitioner 00:19:46.660 --> 00:19:55.715 - is unwilling to make. So I have identified what those deficiencies are and then its approximate location 00:19:55.715 --> 00:20:05.374 - on this aerial view. You'll note that many of these deficiencies range from cracked sidewalks, parking stripes, 00:20:05.474 --> 00:20:13.394 - We've got a six foot ADA sidewalk requirement. We have cross slope issues. And we also have private 00:20:13.394 --> 00:20:21.472 - signs that are within the right of way. So a number of different issues that are noted in the packet, 00:20:21.472 --> 00:20:30.025 - but certainly issues that the highway department would like to see corrected. But ultimately the petitioner 00:20:30.025 --> 00:20:34.302 - is requesting that Reggie would become a private road 00:20:34.722 --> 00:20:45.187 - So they are opting to not do these improvements. I'm going to jump around here. I did want to state 00:20:45.187 --> 00:20:56.070 - that planning's original recommendation to the plan commission was to forward a positive recommendation 00:20:56.070 --> 00:21:02.558 - to the county commissioners with four conditions of approval. 00:21:03.106 --> 00:21:11.725 - much of this is based on the Highway Department's stance that they would not be able to accept Rangeview 00:21:11.725 --> 00:21:20.098 - Circle in its current state. And you'll see on the screen the letter that was provided by the Highway 00:21:20.098 --> 00:21:28.553 - Director, Lisa Ridge, her letter to the Plan Commission dated March 10th, 2026, and that's what I have 00:21:28.553 --> 00:21:31.262 - up here on the screen. She noted 00:21:31.618 --> 00:21:39.347 - the highway department's position as well as a number of their concerns that they had with this site. 00:21:39.347 --> 00:21:46.924 - However, the first condition of approval that planning had recommended was that the petitioner work 00:21:46.924 --> 00:21:54.502 - to get South Wiccan Street accepted into the county inventory by the Planning Commission meeting on 00:21:54.502 --> 00:21:59.806 - March 17, 2026. To planning staff's knowledge, this has not occurred. 00:22:00.162 --> 00:22:06.601 - So at that March 17th meeting, Planning had recommended continuing the petition to the next meeting 00:22:06.601 --> 00:22:13.041 - in hopes that the petitioner would work with the Highway Department on getting South Lincoln Street 00:22:13.041 --> 00:22:18.965 - accepted into the County Road Inventory, which the petitioner did agree to finish all final 00:22:18.965 --> 00:22:25.662 - public improvements to get that accepted by the Highway Department. Ultimately, the Planning Commission 00:22:25.922 --> 00:22:33.668 - did vote to vote a negative recommendation to the county commissioners by a vote of five to two. And 00:22:33.668 --> 00:22:41.567 - this is a pretty lengthy report, but I am happy to take any questions that the commissioners may have. 00:22:41.567 --> 00:22:49.389 - I believe the planning director is also online in case there are any questions that she might be able 00:22:49.389 --> 00:22:55.294 - to answer as well. And I will take any questions. All right, do you have any 00:22:55.618 --> 00:23:09.294 - Any comments or questions? No, thank you. I think I understand the issues. I don't have any questions 00:23:09.294 --> 00:23:23.774 - beyond what I posed at the planning commission meeting on this item. I don't think we need to hear from the 00:23:24.418 --> 00:23:36.333 - representative. We have questions for them. I think we'll just put it on our agenda. So Mr. Smith, thank 00:23:36.333 --> 00:23:48.134 - you for the clear presentation. It is a lot. There's a lot going on here. And I'd like to check in with 00:23:48.134 --> 00:23:51.198 - our third commissioner and 00:23:52.194 --> 00:24:01.289 - send some dates to you to put this on our agenda, if that's okay with you. Absolutely. That's fine. 00:24:01.289 --> 00:24:10.748 - I appreciate that. Thank you so much. Okay. Yeah. All right. Thank you very much. Appreciate your time. 00:24:10.748 --> 00:24:19.934 - All right. We have one more added item on our agenda. Is it you Ms. Turner King presenting the SUDAC 00:24:22.274 --> 00:24:30.176 - It was two T's budget. Did it cost more for the extra T? Sorry. All right. So the Substance Use Disorder 00:24:30.176 --> 00:24:37.776 - Awareness Commission, SUDAC, met yesterday and discussed the upcoming summit, which is scheduled for 00:24:37.776 --> 00:24:45.377 - September 1st and 2nd of this year at the Bloomington Convention Center. And one item they discussed 00:24:45.377 --> 00:24:47.710 - was the budget for the summit. 00:24:47.810 --> 00:24:53.872 - And that's what's before you today for approval. So I have provided a copy of the budget to 00:24:53.872 --> 00:25:00.660 - the commissioners. The budget results in an ending balance of $7,147.71 in the SUDAC fund, which would 00:25:00.660 --> 00:25:07.315 - make funds available for future SUDAC events like Paint the Town Purple or the next year's summit. I 00:25:07.315 --> 00:25:13.246 - would note that yesterday it was discussed during the SUDAC meeting that the speaker line 00:25:13.794 --> 00:25:20.288 - in the budget will likely increase as speakers are confirmed and they communicate their fees but even 00:25:20.288 --> 00:25:26.910 - with the anticipated increase it will result in a positive balance in that fund. So SUDAC approved this 00:25:26.910 --> 00:25:33.468 - yesterday and I provided a copy of the resolution that was passed approving the budget or recommending 00:25:33.468 --> 00:25:39.326 - the budget to the commissioners and so that's what is before you for approval today. Great. 00:25:39.586 --> 00:25:46.070 - Thank you so much. So Commissioner Madeira, anything you want to add to this? No, I think that this 00:25:46.070 --> 00:25:52.554 - is going to be a tremendous event. I think this budget looks exceedingly balanced and I think we're 00:25:52.554 --> 00:25:59.362 - ready to go. Excellent. Now I appreciate the Substance Use Disorder Awareness Commission and their work. 00:25:59.362 --> 00:26:06.171 - And yes, I do think it's going to be a great event. So we should take a vote on this. Yes, Mr. Cockrell, 00:26:06.171 --> 00:26:08.894 - and would we need to ratify it next week? 00:26:09.538 --> 00:26:16.228 - You can just vote on this. I mean, this is a budget. So any contracts associated with the budget will 00:26:16.228 --> 00:26:22.852 - still have to still see it. Got it. All right. Would you make a motion, please? Yes, I would like to 00:26:22.852 --> 00:26:29.672 - move to approve the budget for the 2026 Sudak Recovery Summit. I will second that. Let's see if there's 00:26:29.672 --> 00:26:33.214 - any public comment on this. Teams come to the podium. 00:26:37.314 --> 00:26:46.287 - none all those in favor of approving the recommended budget from Sudak for the recovery summit signify 00:26:46.287 --> 00:26:55.173 - by saying aye aye motion carries to zero thank you there's actually one more Sudak item and that's an 00:26:55.173 --> 00:27:04.058 - amendment to the tall cop says stop contract with the commissioners approved on March 12th after that 00:27:04.058 --> 00:27:06.846 - contract was approved they were 00:27:07.042 --> 00:27:14.643 - The option, it was, there was an option discussed, and that tall cop could provide a report after his 00:27:14.643 --> 00:27:22.170 - presentation and Sudak would like to get that written report and there's a $500 fee for that report. 00:27:22.170 --> 00:27:25.598 - So, it increases the contract amount by $500. 00:27:25.922 --> 00:27:34.307 - says stop organization, submitted an invoice that includes that amount. SUDAC talked about it yesterday. 00:27:34.307 --> 00:27:42.292 - They would like to amend the contract to include that $500. Wow. Can I talk about that a little bit 00:27:42.292 --> 00:27:50.597 - more? That sounds like a lot. This is a report where this particular individual will come and basically 00:27:50.597 --> 00:27:54.590 - do a report dedicated to our local circumstances. 00:27:54.946 --> 00:28:02.868 - Uh, the student team thinks that that would provide very valuable information as an outside professional. 00:28:02.868 --> 00:28:10.342 - Yes. Not embroiled in the community, not from the community looking at it with fresh eyes, somebody 00:28:10.342 --> 00:28:17.965 - who's a professional. I got it. Thank you. Okay. So this would be, um, I'm going to go ahead and move 00:28:17.965 --> 00:28:24.318 - to approve the amended, um, a Chad professional training. Is that correct? Yes. Yes. 00:28:25.090 --> 00:28:33.597 - Um, with the amended total of $3,275. Yes. That is not the full total for clarity. That is the total 00:28:33.597 --> 00:28:42.356 - of the invoice because, um, Mr. Tall Cop, um, we get that's the total amount is broken into two amounts 00:28:42.356 --> 00:28:51.199 - and that is the amount to secure the date. And so that means that the total, um, contract was originally 00:28:51.199 --> 00:28:53.726 - $12,600 and then you had 500. 00:28:55.010 --> 00:29:02.808 - Okay, so 13 one. Yes. Okay. So I'm going to amend my motion to accept the full contract for $13,100 00:29:02.808 --> 00:29:10.449 - to amend it. Yes. I second that. I will second that. Thank you. Yes is good, but I need a second. 00:29:10.449 --> 00:29:15.518 - All right. Let's see if there's any public comment on this item. 00:29:28.226 --> 00:29:36.959 - Seeing none, all those in favor of approving the amended contract with JCHED professional training, 00:29:36.959 --> 00:29:46.390 - signify by saying aye. Aye. Motion carries, 2-0. Thank you. Thanks. All right. With that, we are adjourned. 00:29:46.390 --> 00:29:50.494 - Thanks again, Katz. Thanks again, TSD. Thanks.
