BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
DECEMBER 16, 1980 - BOARD MEETING
Chairman Young called the meeting to order at 11:00 A.M. Commissioner
Paulson was not in attendance at call to order but was expected
to be in soon.
The first discussion was regarding an LID for Howell Hilltop Acres
Special Road District. Lynn McKibben was present with Tony Crutch
and Marv Young to discuss this matter before the Board. At this
time Commissioner Paulson entered the meeting.
Lynn McKibben stated that they were really here before the Board
to answer some questions Rick Isham had relating to the LID.
Mr. McKibben also suggested that someone else rather than Rick
Isham be appointed as the counsel for the Howell Hilltop Acres
Special Road District. This would relieve Rick from another
project, as he is every busy at this time already. He also stated
that they wish to obtain an LID through a Resolution instead of
petitioning. Rick Isham stated that normally Neil Hudson has been
handling local improvement districts. He related that in this
case things were handled a little bit differently. The property
owners of the area have come in and requested the road improvements
rather than submitting a petition and voting on the matter. Neil
Hudson stated that at this time there were about five LID's in
progress all being handled through petition. Marv Young then
stated that last year the Road Department had told him that no more
LID's were being done in the County. Chairman Young told Marv
that there were no LID's which were County financed being done.
Rick Isham questioned the reason for wanting to obtain this LID
through a Resolution and not by the standard which all the others
are being handled,by. Marv stated that they just wanted to get it
done quickly and that they didn't feel a petition was necessary
as there was a petition submitted to form the district not too
long ago and that this showed that the people in the district were
in favor of the local improvements. Rick Isham was concerned that
if the LID was formed through a Resolution, it may become the
Board of Commissioner's project. He stated that he just couldn't
see the change of procedure for this particular LID and felt it
should be handled through the County Road Department. Tony Crutch
stated that there were no remonstrances to the establishment of the
district and feels there wouldn't be any to the road improvements.
He stated that 72-73% of the people in the district were in favor
of the improvements and signed the petition for the formation of
the district. He stated that they could possibly go ahead with the
Resolution and people would still have a chance to oppose to the
improvements through the public hearing process. They just want
to get it done the quickest way possible. Commissioner Paulson
stated that it may take less time to gather names and file the
petition than to have the Resolution drawn up and go through the
hearing process. Tony stated that even with the petition, it would
still need to go through the hearings process. Chairman Young
stated that all the Resolution does is eliminate the petitioning
and the voting process. Rick Isham stated that the end result will
still be the same no matter which way they go, but suggested they
keep the procedure standard.
MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved that the Board through Rick
Isham draft a Resolution and present it for passage
for local improvements to the Howell Hilltop
Acres Special Road District.
CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second.
VOTE COMMISSIONER PAULSON: AYE.
COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE.

The next discussion was on the Animal Control Budget. Mike Maier
and Jim Meston were present to discuss this matter with the Board.
Both Mike and Jim presented memo's regarding proposals for cuts
in the Animal Control Budget to balance the budget for the end
of the fiscal year. Mike Maier related that the Animal Control
budget was short about $26,514. and this is a conservative estimate.
Mike stated that the only possible solution was to come up with
a large cut, which he has proposed in his memo presented to the
Board. Mike's proposed cut is approximately 50% for the remainder
of the fiscal year. Jim Meston's proposal was similar to Mike's
leaving out three items which Mike has proposed. Jim's report
did not include a cut in lead pay and a cut from 40 hours to
32 hours per week. Jim stated that the officers are sometimes
on call 24 hours a day and needs the use of County cars. Mike
included in his report that the County vehicles remain on the
property of the County after normal working hours. Jim stated
that this would be difficult when in need of the vehicles during
the night when receiving dog calls. Commissioner Shepard stated
that possibly they do not answer these calls off hours. The
concensus of the Board was that Mike's proposal would best suit
the need for reduction and best provide the solution to this
problem. They were all concerned, but stated that it was something
which had to be done.
MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved to adopt the proposal of
Mike Maier in his memo dated December 9, 1980.
COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second
Commissioner Shepard questioned Mike Maier as to when the cutting
of the 40 hour week to 32 hours for the Animal Control would begin.
Mike stated it would begin on January 1, 1981.
VOTE COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE.
COMMISSIONER PAULSON: AYE.
CHAIRMAN YOUNG: NO.
Chairman Young did not feel it was right to reduce the Animal Control
to such a strict budget. Commissioner Shepard stated he was not
happy about it but that it had to be done to solve the budget problem
for that department.
At this time there was a discussion concerning interim security
at the Road Department. Neil Hudson stated that he had hired a
man, Gordon Mathis, as security just until the new security system
has been installed. He stated that the cost for using Gordon
as security for approximately 6-10 weeks will be $1200-2000.
Gordon Mathis will be working 48 hours a week to give the department
the security coverage they need until the new system is in.
MOTION: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD moved to approve Neil Hudson's
security program at the Road Department.
COMMISSIONER PAULSON: Second.
VOTE COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE.
COMMISSIONER PAULSON: AYE.
CHAIRMAN YOUNG: AYE.
At this time there was a discussion and possible signature of PP#550,
Chuck Ladera, applicant. Chuck mentioned that after talking with the
Board last week, he had gone to the Road Department and had trouble
getting signatures from the road department until he obtains security.
The plat expires today and Chuck is requesting that he get an extension
of PP#550 until he can finalize things with the Road Department.
MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved to allow a 15 day extension
for PP#550 to allow Chuck Ladera to obtain security.
COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second.
