DISCUSSION ACTION REGARDING THE BURN BAN.

>> GOOD MORNING, JUDGE. COMMISSIONERS, STAFF, AND GALLERY [NOISE].

WELL, THE LAST TWO WEEKS, WE'VE ONLY HAD A FEW FIRES WHEN WE HAD ONE THAT WAS 4.6 ACRES THIS PAST WEEKEND.

IT WAS CAUSED BY A PROPERTY OWNER WHO IS BURNING SOME TRASH AND IT TOOK OFF ON IT.

WE HAD THAT UNDER CONTROL AND THAT'S ABOUT THE ONLY FIRE WE'VE HAD.

THE WEATHER FORECASTS FOR THIS COMING WEEK.

WE BOTH HAVE STARTED OUT WITH 50 PERCENT AND NOW WE'RE DOWN TO 30 PERCENT CHANCE OF RAIN FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW.

THE NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN, IT WOULD BE 50 PERCENT WILL BE NEXT THURSDAY.

CURRENTLY, OUR KBDI NUMBERS ARE, THE MINIMUM IS 40, MAX 592, AVERAGE 382, WITH A CHANGE OF FIVE.

I'M GOING TO RECOMMEND TO COMMISSIONERS COURT, DO WE KEEP THE BURN BAN OFF FOR ANOTHER TWO WEEKS.

>> IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW, COMMISSIONERS, WE TOOK IT OFF ON FRIDAY.

>> ALRIGHT.

>> LET'S HAVE A MOTION LEAVE THE BURN BAN OFF.

DISCUSSION ACTION TO APPROVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN CALDWELL COUNTY AND TRY COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT FOR REAL FIRE PROTECTION AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES. COMMISSIONER THERIOT.

>> THANK YOU, JUDGE. IT'S BEEN SEVERAL YEARS SINCE THE COUNTY REVISITED THE CONTRACTS THAT WE HAVE WITH THE RURAL FIRE DEPARTMENTS.

THESE CONTRACTS PROVIDE FOR FUNDING FROM THE COUNTY THAT GOES THROUGH THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND RETURNED PLACES, REQUIREMENTS REGARDING MAINTAINING CERTIFICATIONS AND RESPONDING TO CALLS, AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS OUT IN THE COUNTY.

THIS IS THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN TRI-COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE COUNTY.

AS YOU WILL SEE, THAT THE FUNDING IS AN INCREASE FROM WHAT IT USED TO BE TO 1500, I THINK IT WAS I BELIEVE.

>> IT WAS A THOUSAND DOLLARS.

>> I WOULD LIKE TO THANK HANK ALEX FOR HIS HARD WORK ON THAT AND CHASE, THEY WORKED HARD ON GETTING THESE AGREEMENTS UPDATED AND TALKING WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS, BUT I RECOMMEND APPROVAL FOR THIS AGREEMENT.

>> ONE ADDITIONAL THING TO ADD TO THIS IS THE FIRST OF FIVE, SO FOUR MORE WILL BE COMING IN.

WE'VE JUST BEEN WAITING FOR THEIR DEPARTMENTS TO MEET AND FOR THE PRESIDENT/FIRE CHIEFS TO TALK ABOUT IT AND TAKE IT BACK.

WE HOPE THAT WE'LL ACTUALLY HAVE ALL OF THEM ON THE NEXT AGENDA OR THE AGENDA AFTER THAT.

>> THANK YOU. WE HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ACCOUNTING AND TRI-COUNTY VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

ITEM 10, DISCUSSION ACTION THAT CONSIDER AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN

[10. Discussion/Action to consider an agreement between the County and Futurity IT, Inc., for the use of Orion disaster mitigation software. Speaker: Judge Haden/Hector Rangel/Hank Alex]

THE COUNTY AND FUTURITY IT INK FOR THE USE OF VARIETY DISASTER MITIGATION SOFTWARE.

COMMISSIONERS, WE TABLE THIS LAST TIME TILL WE COULD GET A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION.

COMMISSIONER WESTMORELAND AND I MET WITH HECTOR AND WATCHED THE PRESENTATION, FROM MY POINT AND I'M STRICTLY SPEAKING FROM MYSELF HERE, AND I'M SURE YOU'VE ALL HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT THE AGREEMENT.

I WOULD LIKE US TO GET MORE PROFICIENT WITH WEB EOC BEFORE WE MOVE TO THIS NEW PLATFORM, WE HAVE WHERE BOC, AND A LOT OF OUR PARTNERS ARE USING THAT.

I DID TAKE A LITTLE BIT TO VISIT WITH MARTIN RITCHIE AND MARTIN SHARED WITH ME THAT PRIOR TO HIS ACCIDENT, THEY WERE LOOKING AT A DIFFERENT SOFTWARE THAT'S SIMILAR TO THIS THAT THE COG IS PLANNING ON POTENTIALLY ROLLING OUT, WHICH WOULD BE IN THE FORM OF A GRANT JUST LIKE WEB EOC WAS.

I'M JUST GIVING THAT OUT AS INFORMATIONAL AND I'LL JUST TURN IT OVER TO YOU ALL.

IF THERE'S ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION.

BUT WE FIRSTLY, NEED TO HAVE A MOTION TO EITHER APPROVE OR DENY THIS.

[00:10:06]

>> WELL, I WOULD MOVE AT THIS POINT TO DENY THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COUNTY AND FUTURITY IT INCORPORATED.

>> DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION AND SECOND, NOW WE CAN HAVE SOME DISCUSSION. COMMISSIONERS.

>> I'LL ADD. IT WAS A VERY GOOD PRESENTATION.

I WANT TO SAY THAT HECTOR, HE WAS A VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF ON THEIR SIDE.

IT'S A NICE SOFTWARE.

THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.

IT DOES A LOT FOR YOU.

I THINK AT THIS POINT FOR ME OR JUST NOT IN A POSITION THAT I THINK IT WOULD PROVIDE MORE THAN WHAT WE COULD GET WITHOUT PAYING THROUGH THE COMPLIMENTARY SOFTWARE AT THE COG AT THIS POINT.

>> I'LL ECHO THAT AND I THINK IT COULD BE BENEFICIAL TO US AT SOME POINT.

FRANKLY, THOUGH WE'RE JUST SO STRAPPED FOR CASH THAT I'M STRUGGLING WITH PAYING THIS AND THEN IT HAS A RENEWAL FEE EVERY YEAR AFTER.

FOR SOME SOFTWARE THAT WE WOULD USE DURING AN EMERGENCY EVENT.

I'M TALKING CATASTROPHIC TYPE OF MANNER.

THIS DOES HAVE WARRANT SOME PROBABLY A REVISITATION IF WE DO GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE SOME FUNDING BECAUSE IT DOES GIVE YOU SOME OPPORTUNITY TO PRE-POPULATE IT SO THAT YOU CAN GO OUT AND TAKE PICTURES OF ROADS, AND BRIDGES, AND THINGS LIKE THAT SO THAT YOU HAVE A PICTURE OF WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE BEFORE AND THEN WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE AFTER DAMAGE FROM AN EVENT.

RIGHT NOW, I'LL JUST BE HONEST, IT'S REALLY TOUGH FOR US.

WE'RE STRUGGLING ALREADY WITH FINDING AND JUST HAVING SOMETHING THAT WOULD POTENTIALLY SIT ON THE SHELF UNTIL WE NEEDED IT WHEN WE ALREADY HAVE SOMETHING TOUGH FOR ME.

SO ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION?

>> ONLY THING I WOULD ADD IS I WOULD AGREE THAT I WOULD BE MORE THAN WILLING TO REVISIT IT AT A LATER DATE IF THE NECESSITY WAS MAPPED.

>> SHOULD WE GET SOME GRANT FUNDING OR SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE THAT ALLOWS US TO HAVE SOME FUNDING.

AM I MIGHT BE A LOT MORE OPEN TO IT BUT RIGHT NOW WE'RE SUPER TIGHT ON MONEY.

>> I'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT THAT NEW SOFTWARE'S COMING OUT [OVERLAPPING] FROM THE COG BEFORE AND THEN REVISIT.

>> SAYING THEY HAVEN'T OFFICIALLY ADOPTED THAT YET.

BUT MARTIN SAID THEY WERE LOOKING PRETTY HARD AT IT, AND I SUSPECT THAT WHEN MARTIN GOES BACK TO WORK, THAT WILL CONTINUE.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? NOW WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO DENY THE FUNDING.

ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

>> AYE. [OVERLAPPING]

>> OPPOSED. HEARING NONE.

MOTION CARRIES. ITEM 11.

DISCUSSION ACTION TO APPROVE A PROCLAMATION FROM THE CENTRAL TEXAS DISPUTE RESOLUTION CENTER DESIGNATED OCTOBER 2023 AS MEDIATION MONTH, I WANTED TO SAY, MEDITATION MONTH.

>> MARTHA JOYCE IS HERE AND LET'S SAY FEW WORDS.

I THINK MOST OF YOU ALL KNOW LYDIA CERNER.

SHE'S BEEN ON OUR BOARD FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR, AND ALSO MARGIE VEILAPANDO AND THEN PROBABLY A VERY ESSENTIAL PERSON IN OUR OFFICE IS BAILEY ROZAS.

BAILEY IS OUR MEDIATION COORDINATOR, AND WITHOUT HER, [LAUGHTER] WE WOULDN'T GET ANYTHING DONE.

BUT ANYWAY, WE WANT TO THANK CALDWELL COUNTY, FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT AND EVERYTHING THAT Y'ALL DONE TO HELP US TO SERVE THE FOLKS IN YOUR COUNTY.

[00:15:07]

WE APPRECIATE IT AND WE HOPE TO HAVE A BETTER INFLUENCE AS TIME GOES ON AND A MORE ACTIVE INFLUENCE AS TIME GOES ON IT AS WE GROW.

ANY DISCUSSION? NOT ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

>> AYE. [OVERLAPPING]

>> OPPOSED HEARING NONE. MOTION CARRIES.

[NOISE] [BACKGROUND] WE'LL GO AHEAD AND MOVE TO ITEM 11, DISCUSSION ACTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 01202 FOR NOMINATING UP TO FIVE CANDIDATES TO BE INCLUDED ON A BALLOT FOR THE CALDWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS?

>> I CAN READ, JUDGE, IF YOU'D LIKE THAT.

SORRY. ITEM 12.

[12. Discussion/Action to approve Resolution 01-2024, nominating up to 5 candidates to be included on a ballot for the Caldwell County Appraisal District Board of Directors. Speaker: Judge Haden/Chase Goetz]

COMMISSIONER HORNS SAYS I SAID 11.

I BELIEVE HIM. [LAUGHTER] I'LL DO IT ALL THE TIME. GO AHEAD.

>> YES, JUDGE. RESOLUTION 01-2O2, RESOLUTION NOMINATING CANDIDATES TO POSITIONS ON THE CALDWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS, WHEREAS THE COWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT IS GOVERNED BY A BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONSISTING OF FIVE MEMBERS THAT MUST BE A RESIDENT OF THE COUNTY AND HAVE RESIDED IN THE COUNTY FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE THE INDIVIDUAL TAKES OFFICE.

WHEREAS CANDIDATES FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ARE NOMINATED BY EACH GOVERNING BODIES OF TAXING ENTITIES WITHIN THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT AND OUR ELECTED BY A PLURALITY VOTE TO SET COLLECTIVE TAXING ENTITIES.

WHEREAS EACH TAXING ENTITY MAY NOMINATE UP TO FIVE CANDIDATES TO SERVE ON THE CALDWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AND WHEREAS CANDIDATES MUST BE NOMINATED BY THE GOVERNING BODY OF A TAXING ENTITY AND THEIR NAMES FORWARDED TO THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 15 FOR INCLUSION ON THE BALLOT.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CALDWELL COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT THAT THE FOLLOWING CANDIDATES ARE NOMINATED BY THE COURT FOR INCLUSION ON A BALLOT FOR OPEN POSITIONS ON THE CALDWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

I'M GOING TO DEVIATE JUST FROM THE RESOLUTION JUST A LITTLE BIT TO EXPLAIN HOW THIS LIST IS SET UP.

THE FIRST FIVE NAMES OR THE CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

THEN THE LAST TWO NAMES WERE SUBMITTED BY COMMISSIONER THOMAS IS A POTENTIAL CANDIDATES FOR NOMINATION.

COMMISSIONER THERIOT SENT IN NAMES ALSO, BUT THEY WERE ALREADY ON THE BOARD, SO THEY WERE JUST INCLUDED IN THAT.

THERE ARE ALSO BLANKS FOR ANY ADDITIONAL PERSONS THAT MAY BE BROUGHT UP TODAY AND CONSIDER TODAY.

ULTIMATELY, THE COURT MAY CHOOSE NO MORE THAN FIVE.

IT MAY CHOOSE LESS THAN FIVE.

BUT AT THIS POINT, IT'S ALL Y'ALL.

>> COMMISSIONERS. I'M OKAY WITH THE SLAVE THAT WE HAD BEFORE.

COMMISSIONER THOMAS, WOULD YOU LIKE TO TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR NOMINEES?

>> [INAUDIBLE] SHE SAW REALTOR HERE IN [INAUDIBLE].

SHE'S BEEN A RESIDENT OF 25 YEARS.

JACQUELINE JOHNSON, SHE'S THE MANAGER.

>> COMMISSIONER IS JUST DIFFICULT TO HEAR YOU.

WOULD YOU MIND SPEAKING INTO THE MICROPHONE, PLEASE?

>> I AM OKAY. JACQUELINE JOHNSON, SHE'S THE MANAGER AND OPERATE AT THE STATE FARM ALLSTATE HERE IN CALDWELL COUNTY RIGHT UP ON THE STREET.

SHE'S BEEN A RESIDENT HERE FOR OVER 10 YEARS.

>> ALL RIGHT, COMMISSIONERS.

>> WELL, I WOULD MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE RESOLUTION WITH THE FIVE CURRENT MEMBERS THAT WE HAVE NOMINATED TO THE CALDWELL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

[00:20:01]

>> THAT WOULD BE A MOTION TO APPROVE SALY DANIEL, KATY HAGLAR, ALFREDO MUNOZ, LINDA HENKEL, AND KAELYN.

HOW TO SAY KAELYN'S LAST NAME? CAIN? I THINK CAIN.

I APOLOGIZE IF I SAID IT WRONG.

WE HAVE A MOTION FOR THOSE FIVE.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? NOW ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

>> AYE. [OVERLAPPING]

>> OPPOSED. HEARING NONE.

MOTION CARRIES. THANK YOU.

I THINK WE GOT THAT ONE KNOCKED OUT. WHAT TIME IS IT? ITEM 13,

[13. Discussion/Action to approve an interlocal cooperation agreement between the County and the City of Lockhart for the provision of emergency medical services and emergency ambulance services in the county. Speaker: Judge Haden/Chase Goetz]

DISCUSSION ACTION TO APPROVE AN INTERNAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COUNTY AND CITY OF LOCKHART FOR PROVISION OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES AND EMERGENCY AMBULANCE SERVICES IN CALDWELL COUNTY.

COMMISSIONERS, YOU HAVE A COPY OF THIS IN YOUR BACKUP.

WE'VE BEEN NEGOTIATING WITH THE CITY, TWO OR THREE WEEKS NOW AND HAVE REACHED AN AGREEMENT WHEREBY WE ARE GOING TO FUND $350,000 FOR ANY POTENTIAL LOSSES WITH THE EMS SERVICE THAT THEY ARE MANAGING.

AND THEN WE HAVE 200,000 ALLOCATED TO CAPITAL EXPENDITURE SUCH AS AN AMBULANCE.

AND THERE'S A PROVISION WITHIN THIS AGREEMENT THAT WE WILL GET TOGETHER WITH THE SAME GROUP THAT NEGOTIATED THIS AT MAYBE YEAR 2 TO SEE WHERE WE'RE SITTING.

IF THIS 350,000 IS NOT ENOUGH FOR SOME REASON, THEN WE WOULD BRING THAT BACK TO THE COURT AND VISIT THAT AT THIS TIME.

BUT FOR NOW, THAT'S A FIXED COST

>> ONE THING TO NOTE, JUST ON THE $200,000 CAPITAL INVESTMENT COST OR LINE ITEM IN THIS CONTRACT, THAT IS A CAP IF IN THE EVENT THAT IT'S NOT MET, IT'S NOT SPENT.

SO IT'S NOT JUST A ONE-AND-DONE TRANSFER.

IT'S ACTUALLY SOMETHING THAT THE CITY WILL COME AND TALK TO US ABOUT.

ONE ADDITIONAL THING THAT'S CONTRACT DOES, IT IS ALSO VERY FORWARD-LOOKING IN THAT IT ASKED THE CITY TO COLLECT DATA SO THAT THE COUNTY AND THE CITY CAN BETTER RESPOND TO EMERGENCIES IN THE FUTURE AND LOOK TO SEE WHERE HOTSPOTS ARE AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS.

SO HOPEFULLY GOING FORWARD, IN THE EVENT THAT THE CITY AND THE COUNTY MUST CONTINUE TO PROVIDE EMS SERVICES, IT HOPEFULLY WILL BE REALLY GOOD FOR THE COUNTY.

>> COMMISSIONERS, DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE INTER-LOCAL COOPERATION AGREEMENT?

>> ALSO MOVE.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION, DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> THE MOTION IS SECONDED. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION?

>> THAT ONE THING JUDGE, THAT 200,000 THAT'S NOT A RE-OCCURRING RIGHT? IT'S JUST A ONE TIME.

>> WELL, NO. SO EACH YEAR WHEN WE REVISIT DURING THE MID-YEAR CYCLE, THAT'LL GO ON AND ON.

SO THAT'S A CAPITAL EXPENDITURE FOR AMBULANCES AND WE PUT APPROXIMATELY 250,000 MILES A YEAR ON OUR AMBULANCES.

SO EVERY YEAR WE WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY HAVE TO EITHER PURCHASE A RE-MOUNT WHICH IS TAKING THE BOX AND PUTTING IT ON A NEW CHASSIS OR A NEW AMBULANCE.

SO THAT'S GOING TO BE A RECURRING COST TO US EVERY YEAR, ALONG WITH THESE LOSSES.

>> RIGHT.

>> AND IT MAY GO UP, IT MAY GO DOWN DEPENDING ON WHAT WE'RE WE'RE PURCHASING.

BUT THIS YEAR WE KNEW THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE NEEDING ANOTHER AMBULANCE AND THAT'S OUR HALF.

AND WE MAY WIND UP HAVING TO PAY A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN 200,000 BECAUSE A FULLY EQUIPPED AMBULANCE, YOU CAN BUY THE AMBULANCE AND THE BOX NOT EQUIPPED FOR $320,000- $330,000.

BY THE TIME YOU PUT ALL THE EQUIPMENT ON IT, IT TURNS INTO ABOUT 450,000.

I THINK IS WHAT WE SAID DURING OUR NEGOTIATIONS.

>> SO IS LOCKHART GOING TO COME UP WITH ANY OF THIS?

>> HALF.

>> HALF OF THE PROVISIONS ONLY?

>> YEAH AND THE LOSSES.

>> IT'S NOT IT'S NOT CHEAP.

I MEAN, WE'RE ANTICIPATING AND YOU CAN DO THE MATH, A LITTLE OVER $1 MILLION IN LOSSES TO OFFER THE LOCKHART EMS SERVICE AND IT'S THE SAME THING IN LULING.

>> CHASE, CAN YOU JUST SPEAK TO I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S IN THE BACKUP OR NOT, IT IS, JUST THE COVERAGE MAP, HOW IT'S BROKEN OUT BETWEEN LOCKHART AND LULING AND HOW THAT IS DIFFERENTIATED.

>> YES, COMMISSIONER. SORRY. IF YOU HAVE YOUR BACKUP, IT'S PAGE 184,

[00:25:01]

IT'S EXHIBIT A IN THE CONTRACT ITSELF.

THE COUNTY IS DIVIDED INTO WHAT IS EFFECTIVELY THREE DIFFERENT COVERAGE AREAS.

THERE'S A FOURTH ONE WHICH IS THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS EMS, BUT THAT'S JUST A SMALL LITTLE GROUPS, SO I'M NOT GOING TO REALLY TALK ABOUT IT.

THE FIRST TWO AREAS WHICH COMPROMISES ABOUT THE NORTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE COUNTY ARE DONE BY LOCKHART.

I COULDN'T TELL YOU THE HISTORY BEHIND WHY IT'S LOCKHART 1 AND LOCKHART 2 AS OPPOSED TO JUST LOCKHART.

BUT THOSE ARE TWO COVERAGE AREAS, THEY COVER ABOUT TWO-THIRDS OF THE COUNTY.

I DON'T HAVE THE POPULATION UP RIGHT NOW, BUT THAT IS HISTORICALLY THE MOST POPULOUS PART OF THE COUNTY.

LULING COVERS THAT FINAL THIRD.

>> I THINK I WANT TO POINT ONE THING OUT THOUGH, JUST SO THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS.

IF BOTH LOCKHART AMBULANCES ARE CURRENTLY OCCUPIED, LULING WILL SERVICE THE CALL FOR LOCKHART AND VICE VERSA.

SO WHILE THOSE ARE A GO-BY, BY NO MEANS DOES THAT MEAN THAT ONE SERVICE DOESN'T GO AND COVER OTHER PARTS OF THE COUNTY.

>> YES. AND TO THAT EXTENT THERE ARE ALSO ALWAYS MUTUAL AID AGREEMENTS AND A NUMBER OF OTHER AGREEMENTS THAT WILL KEEP AMBULANCES RUNNING REGARDLESS OF NECESSARILY THE AREA THAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN.

>> I THINK WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? NOT ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

>> [OVERLAPPING] AYE.

>> OPPOSED HEARING NONE MOTION CARRIES.

WE'LL GO AHEAD AND DO ITEM 14.

[14. Discussion/Action to authorize the County Judge to sign and execute FCC Form 601 applications to the federal government for 700/800 MHz frequencies. Speaker: Judge Haden]

DISCUSSION ACTION TO AUTHORIZE THE COUNTY JUDGE TO SIGN AND EXECUTE FCC FORM 601 APPLICATION TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR 700 AND 800 MEGAHERTZ FREQUENCIES.

COMMISSIONER, THIS IS JUST SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO DO FOR THOSE FREQUENCIES FOR OUR EMERGENCY RADIO TOWERS.

>> AND AS FAR AS THE LETTERS GO, THEY ARE ATTACHED IN THE BACKUP, THAT'S WHAT THE JUDGE WILL BE SIGNING LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THE APPEAL HAS BEEN APPROVED AND AUTHORIZED BY THE COUNTY TO EXECUTE THOSE APPLICATIONS.

>> WE ALREADY OWN ALL THESE FREQUENCIES.

CITY OF LOCKHART OWNS THEIR FREQUENCIES.

THIS IS JUST A FORMALITY TO KEEP ALL THAT GOING.

DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE AUTHORIZING COUNTY JUDGE TO EXECUTE FCC FORM 601?

>> SECONDED, JUDGE.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION FROM COMMISSIONER HORNE. SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> COMMISSIONER THOMAS.

>> YES.

>> ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

>> [OVERLAPPING] AYE.

>> OPPOSED HEARING NONE, MOTION CARRIES.

WE WILL SKIP ITEM 15 UNTIL AFTER THE HEARING.

ITEM 16, DISCUSSION ACTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 02-2024,

[16. Discussion/Action to approve Resolution 02-2024, authorizing the filing of an application to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) requesting a 20-year loan for road improvements; authorizing the County Judge to execute related documents; and ratifying previous action. Speaker: Judge Haden/Will Conley]

AUTHORIZING THE FILING OF AN APPLICATION TO THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TXDOT, STATE INFRASTRUCTURE BANK REQUESTING A 20-YEAR LOAN FOR ROAD IMPROVEMENT, AUTHORIZING COUNTY JUDGE TO EXECUTE RELATED DOCUMENTS AND RATIFYING PREVIOUS ACTION.

COMMISSIONERS, THIS LOAN IS VERY LOW-INTEREST LOAN, IT'S FOR $2,106,617.50.

AND IT WILL BE USED TO PUT IN A LEFT-HAND TURN LANE ON THE SECTION OF 1A3 THAT BEGINS AT THE LULING INDUSTRIAL PARK AND ENDS JUST NORTH OF WHERE WE'RE GOING TO BE PUTTING THE EVACUATION CENTER IN.

BOTH OF THOSE PROJECTS HAVE TRIGGERED A NEED FOR A LEFT-HAND TURN LANE.

AND THIS IS A FAIRLY INEXPENSIVE WAY FOR US TO ACQUIRE THE FUNDING FOR THAT, TO GET THAT PROJECT DESIGNED AND UNDERWAY.

>> RESOLUTION 02-2024 AUTHORIZING THE FILING OF AN APPLICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE BANK AND AUTHORIZING THE COUNTY JUDGE TO ACT ON BEHALF OF THE COUNTY IN ALL MATTERS RELATING TO THE APPLICATION.

WHEREAS THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE BANK, SIB, OPERATED BY THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, IS A REVOLVING LOAN FUND, WHEREAS CALDWELL COUNTY, THE COUNTY, DEEMS ARE PROPER AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE COUNTY TO APPLY FOR A LOAN FROM THE SIB IN AMOUNT UP TO $2,106,617.50 TO BE USED FOR SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS ON US 183 IN LULING.

AND WHEREAS THE COUNTY IS QUALIFIED TO APPLY FOR AND OBTAIN FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM THE SIB FOR THIS PURPOSE.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CALDWELL COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT THAT ONE, THE COURT BELIEVES THAT IT IS IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE COUNTY TO APPLY FOR A LOAN FROM THE SIB AND AN AMOUNT UP TO $2,106,617.50 TO FINANCE SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS ON US 183 IN LULING.

TWO, THE COURT HEREBY AUTHORIZES THE COUNTY JUDGE TO EXECUTE AN APPLICATION FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM THE SIB AND

[00:30:01]

>> I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE.

>> WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE BY COMMISSIONER HORNE. DO WE HAVE A SECOND?

>> SECOND.

>> SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER THERIOT.
