          MOTION. SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HORNE. ANY CITIZENS COMMENTS? ALRIGHT, WE'LL MOVE TO WORKSHOP ITEM F.1. DISCUSS CURRENT FUTURE CALDWELL COUNTY BUDGETARY
NEEDS AND ANTICIPATION OF UPCOMING FISCAL YEAR 2026-27. 
          [F.1 To discuss current and future Caldwell County budgetary needs in anticipation of the upcoming Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budgeting process.]
COMMISSIONERS. I DON'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT NEW TO ADD FROM THE LAST WORKSHOP YET. 
          WE'VE HAD MAYBE 10 BUDGET MEETINGS. THEY'VE ALL GONE WELL,
NO, NO, NO, OFF THE WALL REQUESTS. WE'RE TELLING PEOPLE 3% COST OF LIVING RAISE. 
          EVERYBODY'S BY AND LARGE BEEN FINE WITH THAT. 
          AND WE HAVE ADDED A, A COUPLE OF POSITIONS TO DEPARTMENTS THAT ONCE WE KIND OF GET THROUGH
SOME OF THESE MEETINGS, I'LL BRING IT BACK TO Y'ALL AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT AND BE UP TO Y'ALL WHETHER WE DO IT OR
NOT. 
          BUT OTHERWISE DON'T HAVE A LOT TO ADD. I DID ASK PURCHASING TO GO AHEAD WITH THE WITH THE
RFQ FOR, FOR, YOU KNOW, DOING THE ANALYSIS ON THE BUILDINGS THAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED IN THE
FUTURE. 
          SO THAT'LL, THAT'LL BE GOING OUT SHORTLY. AND,
AND THEN HOPEFULLY BETWEEN NOW AND THE END OF THE BUDGET CYCLE WILL ACTUALLY HAVE SOME REAL NUMBERS TO CONSIDER AND, AND FIGURE OUT IF WE WANT TO ADD SOMETHING INTO THE BUDGET
CYCLE. 
          BUT OTHERWISE I DON'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT TO ADD. 
          AND, BUT I DID WANT TO HAVE THE WORKSHOP JUST IN CASE Y'ALL HAD SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO
TELL US. 
          I'M JUST. EXCUSE ME. SORRY. I'M JUST GOING TO PASS ON THIS1. 
          1 ITEM. I DID RECEIVE A COMPLAINT FROM A CONSTITUENT WHO SERVED ON A,
I SERVED ON A JURY OVER AT THE JUSTICE CENTER, AND SHE. SHE CALLED WITH SOME SPECIFIC COMPLAINTS,
WHICH IS GOOD. 
          SHE MADE A MENTION THAT I'M JUST PASSING THIS ON. 
          I DON'T DON'T KNOW HOW THIS WOULD EVEN PLAY OUT. 
          I TOLD HER I WOULD JUST PASS IT ON TO THE COURT FOR CONSIDERATION. 
          THAT SHE WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE AUDIO VISUAL TECHNOLOGY SITUATION AT THE JUSTICE
CENTER DURING THE COURT PROCEEDINGS, SHE WAS FRUSTRATED. SHE WAS ON THE JURY. AND SHE FELT SO STRONGLY ABOUT IT THAT SHE FELT
THE NEED TO CONTACT ME. 
          I MADE JUST 1 PHONE CALL TO DISTRICT ATTORNEY WEBER TO JUST KIND OF VERIFY SOME OF THE
SITUATION. 
          HE, HE DID. AND I TOLD HER THAT I WOULD SIMPLY PASS THAT ON. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANYTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT AT THIS TIME,
BUT I'M JUST PASSING THAT TO THE COURT AS A COMPLAINT THAT WAS RECEIVED. 
          AND WE'RE AWARE OF IT AND I THINK WE'RE GOING TO DISCUSS THAT DURING CHRIS CUNNINGHAM'S
IT. 
          YES, SIR. BUT WE ARE WE ARE AWARE OF THAT. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT UP,
THOUGH. 
          ANYTHING ELSE? NOPE. ALRIGHT. IF NOT, LOOK FOR A MOTION TO ADJOURN. 
          MOTION TO ADJOURN BY COMMISSIONER TERRIO. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HORNE? ALL IN FAVOR,
SAY AYE. 
          AYE. BUDGET WORKSHOPS ADJOURNED AT 10:18.
