	And I'm going to read this in as you all want to come up to the microphone.	00:12:53
	Proclamation Acts of Connection month January 2025, whereas approximately half of the United states adults.	00:12:58
	Report experiencing loneliness and the harmful consequences of a lack of social connection and can be felt in our schools,	00:13:05
	workplaces, and civic organizations.	00:13:09
	Where performances, productivity, engagements are diminished and.	00:13:13
	Whereas the United States Surgeon General reports the mortality impact of being socially disconnected is similar to that caused by	00:13:18
	smoking of up to 15 cigarettes a day.	00:13:23
	And loneliness poses a significant threat to physical, mental and emotional health, increasing risks for conditions such as	00:13:28
	depression.	00:13:32
	Substance use disorder and chronic disease.	00:13:36
	And WHEREAS, understanding and addressing the factors that contribute to loneliness and disconnection are vital for building a	00:13:39
	healthier, more connected communities and whereas.	00:13:44
	Acts of connection.	00:13:49
	An initiative of Thriving World and the Well County Department of Public Health and Environment seeks to raise awareness of the	00:13:51
	health risk and loneliness and isolation.	00:13:55
	To educate the public on the importance of connection, to provide resources to foster healthy relationships, and to strengthen	00:14:00
	community bonds.	00:14:04
	Now, therefore, be it proclaimed by the Well County Board of Commissioners that January 2025 be known as Acts of Connection Month	00:14:09
	in Well County and Concurrent encourages individuals, families and organizations to visit the Health Department's website.	00:14:17
	Www.weldhealth.org to learn how.	00:14:25
	They can cultivate a culture of connection and take meaningful steps to reduce loneliness and isolation.	00:14:30
	In our community. Signed by all 5 county commissioners.	00:14:36
	Good morning, Jason.	00:14:39
	Through the morning commissioners, Jason Chester with the health department. With me, I have Olivia Egan. Olivia is the manager in	00:14:41
	our department.	00:14:44
	And Doctor Dannon.	00:14:47
	And he's with the School of Public Health at UNC.	00:14:49
	Thank you for observing the proclamation. It was stunning to me in 2023 when the Surgeon General came out with a report that said.	00:14:54
	Loneliness.	00:15:03
	The physical effects of loneliness can be equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes.	00:15:05
	And that's something that.	00:15:11
	We began to work on.	00:15:13
	In our department and with some partners like.	00:15:15
	UNC or Sunrise N range partners too.	00:15:18
	To try to bring awareness.	00:15:21
	Long let us.	00:15:26
	And it has such a negative health.	00:15:28
	Like smoking 15 cigarettes a day, but it's also upstream of several.	00:15:30
	Or it can be upstream contribute to.	00:15:34
	Several health issues like.	00:15:37
	Diabetes or cardiovascular disease or substance abuse, so.	00:15:39
	It's new to our society, you know, with.	00:15:45
	Technology, We've never been more connected.	00:15:48
	As a human race, but that.	00:15:51
	That level of connection through social media.	00:15:54
	May or has in many cases led to a loss of personal interaction and.	00:15:58
	Result in loneliness and the devastating effects that it can have so.	00:16:03
	Acts of Connection is a collaborative effort.	00:16:06
	Among our department and several organizations that have already mentioned.	00:16:09
	To bring awareness to the issue of loneliness.	00:16:13
	And to provide information so that we can begin to address the issue.	00:16:16
	I appreciate the board reading the proclamation.	00:16:19
	To bring awareness to the issue and we as a department look forward to bringing ideas and proposals forward on how we can continue	00:16:24
	to address this.	00:16:28
	Doctor Parks, can you hear me think about that?	00:16:32
	Sure, I will. Thank you so much and good morning.	00:16:34
	I just want to reiterate what Jason was saying in that although we are more connected than ever digitally, we are also becoming	00:16:38
	more disconnected.	00:16:41
	In the past 20 years, we are spending.	00:16:45
	About 24 hours less per month with family and friends and this isolation is.	00:16:48
	Speaking across all generations. So it's not just the youth, it's not just the agent adults, it's everyone in between as well.	00:16:54
	So I would just recommend and promote this for everyone in our community that we make a better intention.	00:17:00
	Of connecting, whether it be with strangers or our loved ones.	00:17:06
	Thank you.	00:17:10
	I don't have anything OK.	00:17:13
	Well, I'm going to bring it back to the board. You have any comment?	00:17:16
	Now I just appreciate you bringing this to our attention. That was a shocking fact for me also having been a past smoker and know	00:17:21
	how much better my body feels having quit.	00:17:26
	The comparison to smoking.	00:17:32
	On your body.	00:17:35
	So thank you for doing this.	00:17:36
	All right, Commissioner Maxie.	00:17:39
	I guess that's my first proclamation that I get to say something that so thank you. This is this is kind of neat.	00:17:43
	Just a couple things.	00:17:49
	You know, I've never been a smoker, but little stats like that, little facts and figures like that are what stick in my mind.	00:17:50
	And so when you said that, that was just.	00:17:56
	Amazing to me about the effects of loneliness and so just happy to be a part of this and I echo.	00:17:58
	It seems like more and more, even though we're more connected, it seems like we are less.	00:18:04
	Personally connected and so.	00:18:09
	I know I try to do.	00:18:11
	The best I can with my family and friends and would encourage others to do the same. So thank you for bringing this to our	00:18:12
	attention.	00:18:15
	Commissioner Ross.	00:18:18
	You know what I would go back to? I I would agree that that loneliness and isolationism is tough on folks I go back to.	00:18:19
	The COVID year 2020 when we were isolating the heck out of people and and saying that loved ones couldn't have interaction with	00:18:28
	their.	00:18:31
	Uh, grandparents and, and beyond, uh.	00:18:35
	We got numerous emails and calls into here saying.	00:18:38
	Please just let us go back and see our loved ones right? Like we're willing to take the risk because loneliness is being tougher	00:18:41
	on us than anything.	00:18:45
	And I would concur, right at the times your life when people become disconnected and stuff, you see rapid declines in their	00:18:50
	health. And, and so it does have an effect on people. It's not a positive effect when they're isolated and feeling lonely. So	00:18:55
	anything we can do to break down those barriers and I would encourage people to.	00:19:01
	Make a phone call to somebody, right? Stop by their house, say hi.	00:19:07
	May just be something that somebody needs.	00:19:10
	Before they go to something bigger like you're saying, Jason, whether it's.	00:19:12
	Cardiovascular disease or others? Or maybe they're suicidal.	00:19:15
	That they could be there and you could be the person that makes them feel.	00:19:20
	You know that that connection again and and stop that so.	00:19:23
	Thank you for doing this.	00:19:27
	Well, I also want to thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. It's kind of hard to think that we need to encourage	00:19:29
	people to connect. You think of it as a no brainer, but I do think with the media, social media, it's kind of done more damage	00:19:33
	than it's done.	00:19:38
	Good in terms of promoting communication.	00:19:43
	Families and friends and so I.	00:19:46
	With all the commissioners here, we stand behind you and stepping up and seeing what more we can do for their citizens to where?	00:19:49
	They do not isolate themselves. So thank you so much. Can we take a picture with y'all?	00:19:57
	Let's all go down with.	00:20:04
	All right, 312.	00:20:30
	And three.	00:20:33
	Wonderful safety.	00:20:35
	Too much that you just thank you so much. You can see.	00:20:37
	So we do have a Northridge Grizzly Days Unified bowling team that was supposed to come state championships.	00:21:00
	But we're going to delay that.	00:21:08
	Hopefully the students will get here.	00:21:11
	Before our meetings adjourn. If not, we'll.	00:21:13
	We'll punt, we'll figure out something else.	00:21:18
	OK, let's go to warrants. General warrants January 10th, 2025. Move to approve warrants for January 10th, 2025.	00:21:21
	Commissioner Ross. Second by Commissioner Kepler. Any discussion?	00:21:30
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say.	00:21:33
	All right, let's go to bids. Good morning, Tony, Toby.	00:21:36
	Resend bid B 2400111 Department of.	00:21:40
	Public health and environment building elevator monetization.	00:21:46
	Facilities Department. Good morning Toby Taylor with purchasing.	00:21:50
	On August 12, 2024, the commissioners approved the Low bidder Peak Elevator to perform elevator modernization at the Health	00:21:54
	Building.	00:21:58
	Peak Elevator was not able to meet the specifications regarding the performance of payment bonds.	00:22:02
	Therefore, on August 9th, 2024, the board approved awarding the project to the second locator, Otis Elevator.	00:22:08
	An agreement with Oda's elevator on this contract with the terms were never able to be reached.	00:22:14
	Therefore, the facilities department is recommending rescinding the bid completely and will rebid the project in the future.	00:22:20
	All right. Any discussions, any questions from the board, I'll move to rescind bid B 240-0111.	00:22:26
	Sorry, it has been moved by Commissioner Maxie.	00:22:33
	Second, by Commissioner Ross to resend any discussion.	00:22:37
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say nay.	00:22:41
	That bed is resent.	00:22:44
	#2 approved bid B 240-0148 Environmental Justice. Public engagement plan, Department of Finance.	00:22:46
	Hope County received 2 bids from the consulting firms to develop a public engagement plan to complement the Environmental Justice	00:22:54
	plan.	00:22:57
	The lowest responsive bidder.	00:23:01
	Was from AR 360 Consultants LLC therefore staff recommending.	00:23:03
	It recommends the award to Arkansas 360 consultants in the amount of $54,962.	00:23:08
	Right. Any questions of the board?	00:23:15
	Moved Approved Bid B 2400 one 48.	00:23:17
	Second, it has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Pepler. Any discussion?	00:23:20
	All in favor say aye aye. Opposed say nay.	00:23:25
	All right Bid 3 Approved Bid B 2400149 Design and engineering services for Weld County Motor Pool Complex Facilities Department.	00:23:28
	As advertised, this bid is for design and engineering services for the new.	00:23:37
	Weld County Motor Pool Complex. The low bid is from Care and Design LLC and the specifications.	00:23:42
	Therefore, the Facilities Department is recommending the award to Care and Design LLC in the amount of 394,000 and $45.00. All	00:23:47
	right, Commissioner Ross.	00:23:52
	On this I had the chance to review it lightly in Tyler, but not all the documentation I can see there.	00:23:58
	I was wondering if we could move this to a work session with the board.	00:24:04
	So I could better understand this, but this is a rather large project.	00:24:08
	Specifically, I guess I've got questions the.	00:24:12
	Bids, as I'm looking at them, the winning bid was substantially lower.	00:24:15
	Than everybody else I would just like to understand more comprehensively.	00:24:19
	Why I believe Karen's been.	00:24:24
	A winning bidder on a lot of our projects in the past.	00:24:27
	And I guess I would just like.	00:24:31
	To be able to dive more in depth in this and be able to see the information from.	00:24:33
	Them and maybe others on on the bids.	00:24:37
	Through a work session if that would be appropriate.	00:24:40
	Further discussion, any questions? I, I echo that settlement. I was looking at all the bids that we received in there's quite the	00:24:44
	spread between the high and the low and I had similar questions as well, especially just being new to the board and not knowing.	00:24:50
	A lot of the insurance and outs, I think this one.	00:24:56
	Would warrant a work session if we could.	00:24:58
	There's three times as much on the high bed, then a little bit. So yeah, there's big discrepancy there. So I'm going to take a	00:25:01
	motion to move that I would move to.	00:25:06
	I guess what do we need to do? Move this to a work session? I don't know if that's a technical motion. No, Bruce.	00:25:12
	Move it to the approval to like next Monday, OK, and then you could do the work session between.	00:25:17
	So I would move to.	00:25:25
	Recessed this approval until next Monday the 20th or we're gone on the 20th so it'll be Wednesday the 22nd.	00:25:29
	At 9:00 AM.	00:25:37
	Second then.	00:25:38
	It has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Pepler. Any other further discussion?	00:25:40
	All in favor, say aye, aye, opposed say nay. That is, it has been moved to January.	00:25:46

	#4 I'm so sorry.	00:26:08
	Bid B 2400155 Traffic Signal Maintenance Department of Public Works. I'm sorry, Toby.	00:26:11
	Public Works Department recommends the board award the bid for traffic signal maintenance to the sole bidder.	00:26:18
	Ruminate transportation technologies.	00:26:23
	Any questions of the board?	00:26:27
	I'll move to approve bid number B-24 hundred 155.	00:26:29
	I'll second it.	00:26:33
	That yes, Commissioner Maxie, just a quick item of discussion, Toby, I didn't see in here today and I said how much is this bid	00:26:34
	for? They quoted their bid based on an hourly rate for on call services.	00:26:40
	All right. Thank you. OK. It's been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Maxey. Any questions, further discussion?	00:26:47

	on January 27th, 2025.	00:27:12

	health FSA will be given the option to roll over their balance into a limited purpose FSA.	00:30:32
	This change allows employees to maximize HSA benefits while using FSA funds for eligible dental and vision expenses. This update	00:30:38
	will provide more flexibility for employees in the future who switch from APPO plan to a high deductible plan with an HSA at no	00:30:43
	extra cost.	00:30:48

	Syphilis rates have been rapidly increasing.	00:32:04
	Not only in Weld County, but Colorado over the past few years, this amendment.	00:32:07
	Well, let me back up as part of the field delivered therapy program we have made.	00:32:13
	Periodic visits to the jail. That's the population that has been in need of both testing and treatment for syphilis.	00:32:19
	This funding that CDPH contacted us.	00:32:26
	Let us know that there was some additional funding available.	00:32:29
	We asked the board to approve this.	00:32:32
	So that we can provide some additional testing for inmates at the Weld County Jail. We've been working with the Sheriff's	00:32:36
	Department. They've been open to the idea and have been very accommodating. So I recommend that the board approve the.	00:32:42
	Contract. Umm.	00:32:50
	All right. Any questions of the board?	00:32:51
	I have one.	00:32:53
	I was just noticing that it appears to address a specific population at the jail as opposed to the broader spectrum of the full	00:32:55
	population. Could you?	00:32:59
	Address that for me. Is it just because?	00:33:04
	Grant is only available for that specific population.	00:33:06
	They the grant prioritizes population. Just ma'am.	00:33:11
	Thank you.	00:33:16
	And I'm charging them to approve contract ID 9007.	00:33:17
	Second has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Maxey. Any discussion?	00:33:21
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say nay.	00:33:27
	Contract ID 9007 is approved.	00:33:30
	Thank you.	00:33:35
	Since we're in this corner, you could do public comment now and then go to recess, Madam Chair.	00:33:36
	Until 9:30, when the unified Boeing team gets here.	00:33:43
	OK, we will do that public comment. Each individual speaker is allowed three minute period of time in which to direct comments to	00:33:47
	the board.	00:33:51
	The Chair shall enforce the rules of order and decorum and will not accept comments regarding matters which are scheduled be	00:33:55
	considered at a full public hearing, such as land use hearing.	00:34:00
	In that event, the speaker will be asked to give their testimony at the appropriate public hearing, either in person or in	00:34:05
	writing. Is there anybody here that has?	00:34:10
	Some public comment.	00:34:14
	Movement in the room, but I see no one coming to the microphone.	00:34:18
	All right, we will.	00:34:22
	Good morning, Sir.	00:34:28
	If you could just state your name and your address.	00:34:30
	Anthony Sanchez at 501 Well County Road 48 and Berthoud, good morning.	00:34:33
	What's that? It was good morning.	00:34:38
	Good morning.	00:34:40
	I have a hard time hearing you're doing great.	00:34:42
	Is the and.	00:34:45
	And asked him to see if Esther could put up.	00:34:49
	My.	00:34:53
	Farm on the.	00:34:56
	Screen and that would help to explain what I'm up to.	00:34:57
	But.	00:35:02
	My wife and I have been farming over.	00:35:03
	In the berthed area just straight West of Johnson's Corner or the new Bucky's area, about two miles.	00:35:07
	And we've taken opportunity of the week.	00:35:14
	Bought 160 acres on our main farm where we live.	00:35:18
	And we've taken the opportunity over the past 30 years to use the recorded exemption.	00:35:22
	On our farm and break up 2 1/2 acre lots every once in a while when we needed.	00:35:28
	Extra income to manage our farm.	00:35:34
	And.	00:35:37
	We our last one was done in about 2000.	00:35:39
	And 20.	00:35:46
	And so we were planning.	00:35:47
	On being able to spread up.	00:35:50
	Some more lots.	00:35:53
	And I went to the planning office back started back in July.	00:35:55
	And they told me that I couldn't do that anymore. And then we had the family farm division that they said we could do but.	00:36:00
	But we've worked hard.	00:36:09
	To keep our farm going.	00:36:12
	And, umm.	00:36:15
	I wanna.	00:36:17
	Show you that up on the screen.	00:36:18
	Yeah.	00:36:21
	Oh, perfect.	00:36:23
	OK, OK.	00:36:25
	Let's see, this doesn't quite. It's not quite high enough to show that.	00:36:29
	Right there, this this area, right here.	00:36:36
	Is about 5 acres.	00:36:41
	And our house is located down over here where we have a reservoir and we have been.	00:36:43
	Using the gated pipe to irrigate our farm.	00:36:51
	And I just recently put in a.	00:36:54
	Appear that over in.	00:36:57
	In this area, right, Right in here.	00:37:00
	We put in a pivot.	00:37:04
	Which helps our irrigation.	00:37:06
	But over the years, we were doing our planning on these lots right up in here. All these lots will be done with the recorded	00:37:08
	exemption.	00:37:13
	And one of your planning?	00:37:18
	Personnel that worked really hard with me over the years was Angela Snyder.	00:37:21
	And so we set this up.	00:37:26
	Along here because this is a hard area for us to.	00:37:28
	Manage on our farm as far as getting the irrigation waters up there and now I'm left with the residual of five acres and then I	00:37:32
	can't do any recorded exemption.	00:37:38
	So I come before you and ask you, is there any way?	00:37:44
	Any way that you guys can come up with where you can help?	00:37:49
	Us because this is in our retirement.	00:37:53
	And this is in a plan where we're going to hand off.	00:37:56
	Farm to our son or our grandson, but my request is to be able to do 2 lots right in here, 2 1/2 acre lots.	00:37:59
	To help us, I'm 78 years old and I love farming.	00:38:08
	That the handwriting's on the wall, that I'm not going to be able to do this forever and my wife and I need.	00:38:13
	The retirement income and we spent about $80,000 to put that pivot in over here and we got some help from the federal government.	00:38:19
	But the farm?	00:38:30
	Family farm division does not help us really at all. I do not want to split up that.	00:38:33
	Farm to where we have to. It's 140 some acres.	00:38:39
	So we can do with the family farm thing. We could do three lots 3.	00:38:43
	40 acre lots.	00:38:49
	And and then one lot off of those is what I'm.	00:38:50
	I'm told, but that doesn't really help us.	00:38:54
	And then I have another farm that's connected up over here that's 60 acres.	00:38:58
	And we can't do anything with it because.	00:39:05
	As far as doing a small subdivision.	00:39:09
	Because we're too close to some subdivisions that were put in before.	00:39:11
	And so we're stuck between a rock and a hard space.	00:39:16
	And we just feel.	00:39:20
	Financially, this really has hurt us and we just feel like we.	00:39:23
	Would like to hang on to our farm but we don't know how.	00:39:28
	How to how to manage that but.	00:39:32
	We needed that.	00:39:35
	Recorded exemption.	00:39:38
	Process that really helped us out and I've since vacated this this farm here that we're at.	00:39:40
	Right in here. I vacated that off the recorded exemption process.	00:39:48
	But umm.	00:39:53
	My wife and I need help.	00:39:56
	This is in a.	00:39:58
	So this is a family. I mean, this is a financial burden put on us by taking that away from us.	00:40:00
	And if we could get?	00:40:08
	Uh, these two lots.	00:40:10
	At least divided out that would help us out for a while until.	00:40:11
	So we can come up with something else. I don't know what we're going to do. All right. Looks like Commissioner Ross, Sir, thank	00:40:18
	you for coming in front of us today. I appreciate it. And I, I.	00:40:22
	Empathize with you and your.	00:40:27
	Struggles.	00:40:29
	The board changed the RE process back in 2020, right?	00:40:31
	And, and quite frankly, what we had was a lot.	00:40:36
	Of instances where.	00:40:40
	We were breaking off parcels, breaking off parcels and in a sense we were creating small subdivisions which when I look at your	00:40:42
	map here.	00:40:46
	In essence, that's kind of what you've done is create a small subdivision here.	00:40:50
	On the eastern side of your property if I'm looking at the map.	00:40:54
	Correctly and so in an effort to try and get better planning going for the county.	00:40:58
	Right. That's why we did away with the RE process and moved to the family.	00:41:05
	Farm division, right. So you have two options available to you. You have you can create the 35 acre parcels or break them into 40	00:41:09
	acres like you said. OK, that's.	00:41:15
	That's guaranteed to you through the state process. OK. Or you can do the family farm division where you have 10 acres.	00:41:21
	Unlock A and you have the rest Unlock B, right? Or I could have lot A&B backwards or so. I apologize, right? But I guess what I	00:41:28
	would encourage you to do is encourage you to work with our planning division. I believe they've been working with you on this.	00:41:35
	And and I think they can work with you as best to give you a solution that we can OK, but we don't have.	00:41:42
	The re process any longer so we as a board don't have that ability to strike down a gavel right and and give you that one off	00:41:49
	option. So it's just not.	00:41:54
	It's not available to us today, but that's why I.	00:41:59
	Encourage you to.	00:42:01
	Continue working with our planning department so they can find the best.	00:42:04
	Opportunity for you.	00:42:08
	OK, and I've been trying to do that.	00:42:10
	But.	00:42:15
	As far as I'm concerned.	00:42:20
	I don't think this is really.	00:42:22
	Fair to me as a landowner.	00:42:25
	And and a farmer.	00:42:27
	And this and I agree with you what I've done in the over the years, over the past.	00:42:30
	25 or 30 years, I think I did ours when we first bought our farm that I did the first one.	00:42:37
	But that has helped us.	00:42:44
	And.	00:42:46
	Honor you guys for what you try to do and you try to help everyone you can, and there's always somebody that doesn't quite.	00:42:49
	Fit and.	00:42:55
	But me as a.	00:42:58
	As a citizen and with the Constitution and my family.	00:43:03
	Has is an American Indian?	00:43:07
	And and Hispanic and we, that's what we are worth. We're farmers and we're ranchers.	00:43:10
	And and.	00:43:17
	I have my We've worked hard to pay this farm off.	00:43:19
	And we should not have to struggle.	00:43:23
	Toward our last.	00:43:27
	Senior years to try to maintain and to keep our farm.	00:43:29
	And, umm.	00:43:33
	And and and we.	00:43:35
	We followed your rules and and your guidance on the recorded exemption and.	00:43:37
	I have a residual there that's going to be idle land.	00:43:42
	And it's too small to farm.	00:43:46
	To get anything off of it, if we have, we do work for the dairy farmers and they come out and run their big equipment on our farm.	00:43:49
	Hardly even turn around on that. So that's going to be a.	00:43:57
	A partial there that.	00:44:00
	That we haven't. We can't. We have.	00:44:03
	Nothing to do with it. And then?	00:44:06
	And then we've paid about $80,000 to run up a domestic line right along County Road 3 there to help that.	00:44:08
	And do lots there and then. So here we are.	00:44:16
	And so.	00:44:19
	I feel like.	00:44:21
	I appreciate what you're saying.	00:44:22
	To work with the planning division.	00:44:25
	But if you have only two options for me, I'm sorry that that doesn't get it.	00:44:27
	Well, and I appreciate that, Sir, we have to look at planning from a broader perspective than a case by case, right. And that's	00:44:31
	why we've tried to set forth the best options that we can with our planning department. And and there may be even an opportunity	00:44:37
	for you for a small subdivision on this track of land where you might not have it on that property to the north of you. I can't	00:44:42
	tell you without having more information, but that's again.	00:44:48
	If you're trying to break that up, my best advice?	00:44:54
	And, and, and I've already gotten word from the planning division is keep working with them, right? They'll do their best for you.	00:44:57
	And, and that would be my encouragement for you. But again, I appreciate you bringing these concerns to us and thank you for being	00:45:01
	here.	00:45:05
	Thank you for being here. All right, so the Grizzlies are in the house.	00:45:09
	Your timing is perfect.	00:45:15
	I am going to read this proclamation if you want to come up here and.	00:45:17
	Coaches and players and all.	00:45:23
	And we're going to ask you to introduce yourselves and tell us what year.	00:45:26
	You are in your schooling.	00:45:31
	Proclamation Northridge Grizzlies Day Monday, January 13th, 2025 Whereas the Northridge Grizzlies Unified Bowling Team competed in	00:45:34
	the 2024 state championship on November 22nd.	00:45:40
	At the bull arrow.	00:45:47
	And Lone Tree and whereas the Grizzlies vested 27 other teams.	00:45:48
	Finished finishing with 651 points to claim to their.	00:45:53
	First unified bowling state championship and the school's first state championship since 2008, making the win both memorable and	00:45:57
	historic.	00:46:02
	And whereas the state championships do not.	00:46:07
	Time without hard work and the determination to continually improve.	00:46:10
	While we're proud of the team members, Annabelle Cox, David Rivera.	00:46:14
	Ethan Walmeyer, Julian Jensen and Jordan Fernandez, We are equally proud of their parents and coaches for their investment into	00:46:18
	our young people.	00:46:22
	And whereas a state championship is something every school strives for but few actually achieve.	00:46:27
	The unique honor of being called a champion is something we celebrate today.	00:46:33
	And we encourage team members to remember the feeling as we move forward in life.	00:46:37
	Call upon the same traits shown this season, hard work, determination, teamwork and when striving to overcome future challenges.	00:46:42
	Now therefore be it proclaimed by the Board of Willow County Commissioners that the 13th day of January, 2025.	00:46:50

	We're proud of the team's success and join the entire Northridge community in celebrating this special accomplishment.	00:47:00
	Signed by all county commissioners.	00:47:06
	Right. Does the coach want to say a few words and then maybe introduce the team where they can all?	00:47:12
	Say their name and what year that school they're in.	00:47:19
	I Co coach with.	00:47:21
	Amy Anderson.	00:47:23
	Our kids are amazing kids.	00:47:25
	They really worked hard towards this this year, not just this year, but every year.	00:47:27
	They really were involved and.	00:47:34
	I just can't believe it. They did amazing this year.	00:47:38
	That is a woman.	00:47:40
	I'm just really thankful to be able to be a part of this team, not only, you know, where we were able to.	00:47:45
	Be able to bring home a state championship to Northridge and to Greeley and to everyone here.	00:47:52
	But we were able to do it together as a team.	00:47:57
	And really, the best part of all this isn't.	00:48:01
	The championship is not the winning, it's just.	00:48:04
	Being involved in Unified want to being involved in the team and building such close relationships with everyone.	00:48:06
	Next.	00:48:12
	Just say your name and what year you aren't in school.	00:48:14

	Just congratulations and.	00:48:55
	A good reward for all your hard work and time that you've put into this.	00:48:59

	with you and your team.	00:49:17
	Moving forward now.	00:49:21
	I was blessed to be able to go to state as a high school athlete as well, but I would never was part of a championship team, so	00:49:22

	Commissioner Ross, I just want to say congratulations, state champion. Wow, that's hard to do.	00:49:41
	I coached for many years and we had that opportunity.	00:49:47
	Here's what's tough They're going to come looking for you next year, right? So it takes additional hard work.	00:49:50
	Making sure you're ready to meet those opponents next year. But I know it took a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication on each and	00:49:56
	everyone of your parts. I want to say not only thank you to you and your coaches, great job, but I want to say thank you to the	00:50:01
	parents. It takes a lot of effort getting into practices and taking them to tournaments and bowling meets. And so I just want to	00:50:07
	say thank you to everybody. It takes a team effort.	00:50:12
	Way to go. Good job.	00:50:18
	So I want to congratulate you also. I remember being on the bowling team and, and even Commissioner Freeman and I when we were in	00:50:20
	8th grade, I believe it was that there is such a synergy when you're bullying amongst each other and cheering each other on. So I	00:50:26
	applaud you on that. I also.	00:50:31
	Applied the appearance for getting you to your practices.	00:50:36

	Where performances, productivity, engagements are diminished and.	00:13:13
	Whereas the United States Surgeon General reports the mortality impact of being socially disconnected is similar to that caused by	00:13:18
	smoking of up to 15 cigarettes a day.	00:13:23
	And loneliness poses a significant threat to physical, mental and emotional health, increasing risks for conditions such as	00:13:28
	depression.	00:13:32
	Substance use disorder and chronic disease.	00:13:36
	And WHEREAS, understanding and addressing the factors that contribute to loneliness and disconnection are vital for building a	00:13:39
	healthier, more connected communities and whereas.	00:13:44
	Acts of connection.	00:13:49
	An initiative of Thriving World and the Well County Department of Public Health and Environment seeks to raise awareness of the	00:13:51
	health risk and loneliness and isolation.	00:13:55
	To educate the public on the importance of connection, to provide resources to foster healthy relationships, and to strengthen	00:14:00
	community bonds.	00:14:04
	Now, therefore, be it proclaimed by the Well County Board of Commissioners that January 2025 be known as Acts of Connection Month	00:14:09
	in Well County and Concurrent encourages individuals, families and organizations to visit the Health Department's website.	00:14:17
	Www.weldhealth.org to learn how.	00:14:25
	They can cultivate a culture of connection and take meaningful steps to reduce loneliness and isolation.	00:14:30
	In our community. Signed by all 5 county commissioners.	00:14:36
	Good morning, Jason.	00:14:39
	Through the morning commissioners, Jason Chester with the health department. With me, I have Olivia Egan. Olivia is the manager in	00:14:41
	our department.	00:14:44
	And Doctor Dannon.	00:14:47
	And he's with the School of Public Health at UNC.	00:14:49
	Thank you for observing the proclamation. It was stunning to me in 2023 when the Surgeon General came out with a report that said.	00:14:54
	Loneliness.	00:15:03
	The physical effects of loneliness can be equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes.	00:15:05
	And that's something that.	00:15:11
	We began to work on.	00:15:13
	In our department and with some partners like.	00:15:15
	UNC or Sunrise N range partners too.	00:15:18
	To try to bring awareness.	00:15:21
	Long let us.	00:15:26
	And it has such a negative health.	00:15:28
	Like smoking 15 cigarettes a day, but it's also upstream of several.	00:15:30
	Or it can be upstream contribute to.	00:15:34
	Several health issues like.	00:15:37
	Diabetes or cardiovascular disease or substance abuse, so.	00:15:39
	It's new to our society, you know, with.	00:15:45
	Technology, We've never been more connected.	00:15:48
	As a human race, but that.	00:15:51
	That level of connection through social media.	00:15:54
	May or has in many cases led to a loss of personal interaction and.	00:15:58
	Result in loneliness and the devastating effects that it can have so.	00:16:03
	Acts of Connection is a collaborative effort.	00:16:06
	Among our department and several organizations that have already mentioned.	00:16:09
	To bring awareness to the issue of loneliness.	00:16:13
	And to provide information so that we can begin to address the issue.	00:16:16
	I appreciate the board reading the proclamation.	00:16:19
	To bring awareness to the issue and we as a department look forward to bringing ideas and proposals forward on how we can continue	00:16:24
	to address this.	00:16:28
	Doctor Parks, can you hear me think about that?	00:16:32
	Sure, I will. Thank you so much and good morning.	00:16:34
	I just want to reiterate what Jason was saying in that although we are more connected than ever digitally, we are also becoming	00:16:38
	more disconnected.	00:16:41
	In the past 20 years, we are spending.	00:16:45
	About 24 hours less per month with family and friends and this isolation is.	00:16:48
	Speaking across all generations. So it's not just the youth, it's not just the agent adults, it's everyone in between as well.	00:16:54
	So I would just recommend and promote this for everyone in our community that we make a better intention.	00:17:00
	Of connecting, whether it be with strangers or our loved ones.	00:17:06
	Thank you.	00:17:10
	I don't have anything OK.	00:17:13
	Well, I'm going to bring it back to the board. You have any comment?	00:17:16
	Now I just appreciate you bringing this to our attention. That was a shocking fact for me also having been a past smoker and know	00:17:21
	how much better my body feels having quit.	00:17:26
	The comparison to smoking.	00:17:32
	On your body.	00:17:35
	So thank you for doing this.	00:17:36
	All right, Commissioner Maxie.	00:17:39
	I guess that's my first proclamation that I get to say something that so thank you. This is this is kind of neat.	00:17:43
	Just a couple things.	00:17:49
	You know, I've never been a smoker, but little stats like that, little facts and figures like that are what stick in my mind.	00:17:50
	And so when you said that, that was just.	00:17:56
	Amazing to me about the effects of loneliness and so just happy to be a part of this and I echo.	00:17:58
	It seems like more and more, even though we're more connected, it seems like we are less.	00:18:04
	Personally connected and so.	00:18:09
	I know I try to do.	00:18:11
	The best I can with my family and friends and would encourage others to do the same. So thank you for bringing this to our	00:18:12
	attention.	00:18:15
	Commissioner Ross.	00:18:18
	You know what I would go back to? I I would agree that that loneliness and isolationism is tough on folks I go back to.	00:18:19
	The COVID year 2020 when we were isolating the heck out of people and and saying that loved ones couldn't have interaction with	00:18:28
	their.	00:18:31
	Uh, grandparents and, and beyond, uh.	00:18:35
	We got numerous emails and calls into here saying.	00:18:38
	Please just let us go back and see our loved ones right? Like we're willing to take the risk because loneliness is being tougher	00:18:41
	on us than anything.	00:18:45
	And I would concur, right at the times your life when people become disconnected and stuff, you see rapid declines in their	00:18:50
	health. And, and so it does have an effect on people. It's not a positive effect when they're isolated and feeling lonely. So	00:18:55
	anything we can do to break down those barriers and I would encourage people to.	00:19:01
	Make a phone call to somebody, right? Stop by their house, say hi.	00:19:07
	May just be something that somebody needs.	00:19:10
	Before they go to something bigger like you're saying, Jason, whether it's.	00:19:12
	Cardiovascular disease or others? Or maybe they're suicidal.	00:19:15
	That they could be there and you could be the person that makes them feel.	00:19:20
	You know that that connection again and and stop that so.	00:19:23
	Thank you for doing this.	00:19:27
	Well, I also want to thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. It's kind of hard to think that we need to encourage	00:19:29
	people to connect. You think of it as a no brainer, but I do think with the media, social media, it's kind of done more damage	00:19:33
	than it's done.	00:19:38
	Good in terms of promoting communication.	00:19:43
	Families and friends and so I.	00:19:46
	With all the commissioners here, we stand behind you and stepping up and seeing what more we can do for their citizens to where?	00:19:49
	They do not isolate themselves. So thank you so much. Can we take a picture with y'all?	00:19:57
	Let's all go down with.	00:20:04
	All right, 312.	00:20:30
	And three.	00:20:33
	Wonderful safety.	00:20:35
	Too much that you just thank you so much. You can see.	00:20:37
	So we do have a Northridge Grizzly Days Unified bowling team that was supposed to come state championships.	00:21:00
	But we're going to delay that.	00:21:08
	Hopefully the students will get here.	00:21:11
	Before our meetings adjourn. If not, we'll.	00:21:13
	We'll punt, we'll figure out something else.	00:21:18
	OK, let's go to warrants. General warrants January 10th, 2025. Move to approve warrants for January 10th, 2025.	00:21:21
	Commissioner Ross. Second by Commissioner Kepler. Any discussion?	00:21:30
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say.	00:21:33
	All right, let's go to bids. Good morning, Tony, Toby.	00:21:36
	Resend bid B 2400111 Department of.	00:21:40
	Public health and environment building elevator monetization.	00:21:46
	Facilities Department. Good morning Toby Taylor with purchasing.	00:21:50
	On August 12, 2024, the commissioners approved the Low bidder Peak Elevator to perform elevator modernization at the Health	00:21:54
	Building.	00:21:58
	Peak Elevator was not able to meet the specifications regarding the performance of payment bonds.	00:22:02
	Therefore, on August 9th, 2024, the board approved awarding the project to the second locator, Otis Elevator.	00:22:08
	An agreement with Oda's elevator on this contract with the terms were never able to be reached.	00:22:14
	Therefore, the facilities department is recommending rescinding the bid completely and will rebid the project in the future.	00:22:20
	All right. Any discussions, any questions from the board, I'll move to rescind bid B 240-0111.	00:22:26
	Sorry, it has been moved by Commissioner Maxie.	00:22:33
	Second, by Commissioner Ross to resend any discussion.	00:22:37
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say nay.	00:22:41
	That bed is resent.	00:22:44
	#2 approved bid B 240-0148 Environmental Justice. Public engagement plan, Department of Finance.	00:22:46
	Hope County received 2 bids from the consulting firms to develop a public engagement plan to complement the Environmental Justice	00:22:54
	plan.	00:22:57
	The lowest responsive bidder.	00:23:01
	Was from AR 360 Consultants LLC therefore staff recommending.	00:23:03
	It recommends the award to Arkansas 360 consultants in the amount of $54,962.	00:23:08
	Right. Any questions of the board?	00:23:15
	Moved Approved Bid B 2400 one 48.	00:23:17
	Second, it has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Pepler. Any discussion?	00:23:20
	All in favor say aye aye. Opposed say nay.	00:23:25
	All right Bid 3 Approved Bid B 2400149 Design and engineering services for Weld County Motor Pool Complex Facilities Department.	00:23:28
	As advertised, this bid is for design and engineering services for the new.	00:23:37
	Weld County Motor Pool Complex. The low bid is from Care and Design LLC and the specifications.	00:23:42
	Therefore, the Facilities Department is recommending the award to Care and Design LLC in the amount of 394,000 and $45.00. All	00:23:47
	right, Commissioner Ross.	00:23:52
	On this I had the chance to review it lightly in Tyler, but not all the documentation I can see there.	00:23:58
	I was wondering if we could move this to a work session with the board.	00:24:04
	So I could better understand this, but this is a rather large project.	00:24:08
	Specifically, I guess I've got questions the.	00:24:12
	Bids, as I'm looking at them, the winning bid was substantially lower.	00:24:15
	Than everybody else I would just like to understand more comprehensively.	00:24:19
	Why I believe Karen's been.	00:24:24
	A winning bidder on a lot of our projects in the past.	00:24:27
	And I guess I would just like.	00:24:31
	To be able to dive more in depth in this and be able to see the information from.	00:24:33
	Them and maybe others on on the bids.	00:24:37
	Through a work session if that would be appropriate.	00:24:40
	Further discussion, any questions? I, I echo that settlement. I was looking at all the bids that we received in there's quite the	00:24:44
	spread between the high and the low and I had similar questions as well, especially just being new to the board and not knowing.	00:24:50
	A lot of the insurance and outs, I think this one.	00:24:56
	Would warrant a work session if we could.	00:24:58
	There's three times as much on the high bed, then a little bit. So yeah, there's big discrepancy there. So I'm going to take a	00:25:01
	motion to move that I would move to.	00:25:06
	I guess what do we need to do? Move this to a work session? I don't know if that's a technical motion. No, Bruce.	00:25:12
	Move it to the approval to like next Monday, OK, and then you could do the work session between.	00:25:17
	So I would move to.	00:25:25
	Recessed this approval until next Monday the 20th or we're gone on the 20th so it'll be Wednesday the 22nd.	00:25:29
	At 9:00 AM.	00:25:37
	Second then.	00:25:38
	It has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Pepler. Any other further discussion?	00:25:40
	All in favor, say aye, aye, opposed say nay. That is, it has been moved to January.	00:25:46

	#4 I'm so sorry.	00:26:08
	Bid B 2400155 Traffic Signal Maintenance Department of Public Works. I'm sorry, Toby.	00:26:11
	Public Works Department recommends the board award the bid for traffic signal maintenance to the sole bidder.	00:26:18
	Ruminate transportation technologies.	00:26:23
	Any questions of the board?	00:26:27
	I'll move to approve bid number B-24 hundred 155.	00:26:29
	I'll second it.	00:26:33
	That yes, Commissioner Maxie, just a quick item of discussion, Toby, I didn't see in here today and I said how much is this bid	00:26:34
	for? They quoted their bid based on an hourly rate for on call services.	00:26:40
	All right. Thank you. OK. It's been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Maxey. Any questions, further discussion?	00:26:47

	The Department of Information Technology is reviewing that single bid and that anticipates bringing a recommendation to the Board	00:27:08
	on January 27th, 2025.	00:27:12
	Any questions of the board?	00:27:17

	Any questions? Any questions?	00:29:35
	Of the board, yes, Commissioner Ross, I'll just make a comment. I think this is important. It's good that we are keeping the rates	00:29:38
	as close as we can to to last year.	00:29:42
	I know CTSI is working diligently on that and.	00:29:47
	Every team, well, it's doing a great job of trying to keep our.	00:29:50

	health FSA will be given the option to roll over their balance into a limited purpose FSA.	00:30:32
	This change allows employees to maximize HSA benefits while using FSA funds for eligible dental and vision expenses. This update	00:30:38
	will provide more flexibility for employees in the future who switch from APPO plan to a high deductible plan with an HSA at no	00:30:43
	extra cost.	00:30:48
	The pass around for this proposal was approved by 5 out of five commissioners on December 30th and now we seek the Commissioners	00:30:53

	#4 Consider contract ID.	00:31:33
	9007 amendment #2 to task order contract for syphilis filled delivery. FTD program and authorized chair design.	00:31:36
	Good morning, Commissioners. Jason Cheshire with the Health Department.	00:31:46
	Last year, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment funded a syphilis field delivered therapy program for Weld	00:31:49
	County.	00:31:53
	That program essentially.	00:31:56
	Provided funding for staff to go out into the field.	00:31:58
	To provide both testing and treatment for syphilis.	00:32:02
	Syphilis rates have been rapidly increasing.	00:32:04
	Not only in Weld County, but Colorado over the past few years, this amendment.	00:32:07
	Well, let me back up as part of the field delivered therapy program we have made.	00:32:13
	Periodic visits to the jail. That's the population that has been in need of both testing and treatment for syphilis.	00:32:19
	This funding that CDPH contacted us.	00:32:26
	Let us know that there was some additional funding available.	00:32:29
	We asked the board to approve this.	00:32:32
	So that we can provide some additional testing for inmates at the Weld County Jail. We've been working with the Sheriff's	00:32:36
	Department. They've been open to the idea and have been very accommodating. So I recommend that the board approve the.	00:32:42
	Contract. Umm.	00:32:50
	All right. Any questions of the board?	00:32:51
	I have one.	00:32:53
	I was just noticing that it appears to address a specific population at the jail as opposed to the broader spectrum of the full	00:32:55
	population. Could you?	00:32:59
	Address that for me. Is it just because?	00:33:04
	Grant is only available for that specific population.	00:33:06
	They the grant prioritizes population. Just ma'am.	00:33:11
	Thank you.	00:33:16
	And I'm charging them to approve contract ID 9007.	00:33:17
	Second has been moved by Commissioner Ross, second by Commissioner Maxey. Any discussion?	00:33:21
	All in favor, say aye. Opposed say nay.	00:33:27
	Contract ID 9007 is approved.	00:33:30
	Thank you.	00:33:35
	Since we're in this corner, you could do public comment now and then go to recess, Madam Chair.	00:33:36
	Until 9:30, when the unified Boeing team gets here.	00:33:43
	OK, we will do that public comment. Each individual speaker is allowed three minute period of time in which to direct comments to	00:33:47
	the board.	00:33:51
	The Chair shall enforce the rules of order and decorum and will not accept comments regarding matters which are scheduled be	00:33:55
	considered at a full public hearing, such as land use hearing.	00:34:00
	In that event, the speaker will be asked to give their testimony at the appropriate public hearing, either in person or in	00:34:05
	writing. Is there anybody here that has?	00:34:10
	Some public comment.	00:34:14
	Movement in the room, but I see no one coming to the microphone.	00:34:18
	All right, we will.	00:34:22
	Good morning, Sir.	00:34:28
	If you could just state your name and your address.	00:34:30
	Anthony Sanchez at 501 Well County Road 48 and Berthoud, good morning.	00:34:33
	What's that? It was good morning.	00:34:38
	Good morning.	00:34:40
	I have a hard time hearing you're doing great.	00:34:42
	Is the and.	00:34:45
	And asked him to see if Esther could put up.	00:34:49
	My.	00:34:53
	Farm on the.	00:34:56
	Screen and that would help to explain what I'm up to.	00:34:57
	But.	00:35:02
	My wife and I have been farming over.	00:35:03
	In the berthed area just straight West of Johnson's Corner or the new Bucky's area, about two miles.	00:35:07
	And we've taken opportunity of the week.	00:35:14
	Bought 160 acres on our main farm where we live.	00:35:18
	And we've taken the opportunity over the past 30 years to use the recorded exemption.	00:35:22
	On our farm and break up 2 1/2 acre lots every once in a while when we needed.	00:35:28
	Extra income to manage our farm.	00:35:34
	And.	00:35:37
	We our last one was done in about 2000.	00:35:39
	And 20.	00:35:46
	And so we were planning.	00:35:47
	On being able to spread up.	00:35:50
	Some more lots.	00:35:53
	And I went to the planning office back started back in July.	00:35:55
	And they told me that I couldn't do that anymore. And then we had the family farm division that they said we could do but.	00:36:00
	But we've worked hard.	00:36:09
	To keep our farm going.	00:36:12
	And, umm.	00:36:15
	I wanna.	00:36:17
	Show you that up on the screen.	00:36:18
	Yeah.	00:36:21
	Oh, perfect.	00:36:23
	OK, OK.	00:36:25
	Let's see, this doesn't quite. It's not quite high enough to show that.	00:36:29
	Right there, this this area, right here.	00:36:36
	Is about 5 acres.	00:36:41
	And our house is located down over here where we have a reservoir and we have been.	00:36:43
	Using the gated pipe to irrigate our farm.	00:36:51
	And I just recently put in a.	00:36:54
	Appear that over in.	00:36:57
	In this area, right, Right in here.	00:37:00
	We put in a pivot.	00:37:04
	Which helps our irrigation.	00:37:06
	But over the years, we were doing our planning on these lots right up in here. All these lots will be done with the recorded	00:37:08
	exemption.	00:37:13
	And one of your planning?	00:37:18
	Personnel that worked really hard with me over the years was Angela Snyder.	00:37:21
	And so we set this up.	00:37:26
	Along here because this is a hard area for us to.	00:37:28
	Manage on our farm as far as getting the irrigation waters up there and now I'm left with the residual of five acres and then I	00:37:32
	can't do any recorded exemption.	00:37:38
	So I come before you and ask you, is there any way?	00:37:44
	Any way that you guys can come up with where you can help?	00:37:49
	Us because this is in our retirement.	00:37:53
	And this is in a plan where we're going to hand off.	00:37:56
	Farm to our son or our grandson, but my request is to be able to do 2 lots right in here, 2 1/2 acre lots.	00:37:59
	To help us, I'm 78 years old and I love farming.	00:38:08
	That the handwriting's on the wall, that I'm not going to be able to do this forever and my wife and I need.	00:38:13
	The retirement income and we spent about $80,000 to put that pivot in over here and we got some help from the federal government.	00:38:19
	But the farm?	00:38:30
	Family farm division does not help us really at all. I do not want to split up that.	00:38:33
	Farm to where we have to. It's 140 some acres.	00:38:39
	So we can do with the family farm thing. We could do three lots 3.	00:38:43
	40 acre lots.	00:38:49
	And and then one lot off of those is what I'm.	00:38:50
	I'm told, but that doesn't really help us.	00:38:54
	And then I have another farm that's connected up over here that's 60 acres.	00:38:58
	And we can't do anything with it because.	00:39:05
	As far as doing a small subdivision.	00:39:09
	Because we're too close to some subdivisions that were put in before.	00:39:11
	And so we're stuck between a rock and a hard space.	00:39:16
	And we just feel.	00:39:20
	Financially, this really has hurt us and we just feel like we.	00:39:23
	Would like to hang on to our farm but we don't know how.	00:39:28
	How to how to manage that but.	00:39:32
	We needed that.	00:39:35
	Recorded exemption.	00:39:38
	Process that really helped us out and I've since vacated this this farm here that we're at.	00:39:40
	Right in here. I vacated that off the recorded exemption process.	00:39:48
	But umm.	00:39:53
	My wife and I need help.	00:39:56
	This is in a.	00:39:58
	So this is a family. I mean, this is a financial burden put on us by taking that away from us.	00:40:00
	And if we could get?	00:40:08
	Uh, these two lots.	00:40:10
	At least divided out that would help us out for a while until.	00:40:11
	So we can come up with something else. I don't know what we're going to do. All right. Looks like Commissioner Ross, Sir, thank	00:40:18
	you for coming in front of us today. I appreciate it. And I, I.	00:40:22
	Empathize with you and your.	00:40:27
	Struggles.	00:40:29
	The board changed the RE process back in 2020, right?	00:40:31
	And, and quite frankly, what we had was a lot.	00:40:36
	Of instances where.	00:40:40
	We were breaking off parcels, breaking off parcels and in a sense we were creating small subdivisions which when I look at your	00:40:42
	map here.	00:40:46
	In essence, that's kind of what you've done is create a small subdivision here.	00:40:50
	On the eastern side of your property if I'm looking at the map.	00:40:54
	Correctly and so in an effort to try and get better planning going for the county.	00:40:58
	Right. That's why we did away with the RE process and moved to the family.	00:41:05
	Farm division, right. So you have two options available to you. You have you can create the 35 acre parcels or break them into 40	00:41:09
	acres like you said. OK, that's.	00:41:15
	That's guaranteed to you through the state process. OK. Or you can do the family farm division where you have 10 acres.	00:41:21
	Unlock A and you have the rest Unlock B, right? Or I could have lot A&B backwards or so. I apologize, right? But I guess what I	00:41:28
	would encourage you to do is encourage you to work with our planning division. I believe they've been working with you on this.	00:41:35
	And and I think they can work with you as best to give you a solution that we can OK, but we don't have.	00:41:42
	The re process any longer so we as a board don't have that ability to strike down a gavel right and and give you that one off	00:41:49
	option. So it's just not.	00:41:54
	It's not available to us today, but that's why I.	00:41:59
	Encourage you to.	00:42:01
	Continue working with our planning department so they can find the best.	00:42:04
	Opportunity for you.	00:42:08
	OK, and I've been trying to do that.	00:42:10
	But.	00:42:15
	As far as I'm concerned.	00:42:20
	I don't think this is really.	00:42:22
	Fair to me as a landowner.	00:42:25
	And and a farmer.	00:42:27
	And this and I agree with you what I've done in the over the years, over the past.	00:42:30
	25 or 30 years, I think I did ours when we first bought our farm that I did the first one.	00:42:37
	But that has helped us.	00:42:44
	And.	00:42:46
	Honor you guys for what you try to do and you try to help everyone you can, and there's always somebody that doesn't quite.	00:42:49
	Fit and.	00:42:55
	But me as a.	00:42:58
	As a citizen and with the Constitution and my family.	00:43:03
	Has is an American Indian?	00:43:07
	And and Hispanic and we, that's what we are worth. We're farmers and we're ranchers.	00:43:10
	And and.	00:43:17
	I have my We've worked hard to pay this farm off.	00:43:19
	And we should not have to struggle.	00:43:23
	Toward our last.	00:43:27
	Senior years to try to maintain and to keep our farm.	00:43:29
	And, umm.	00:43:33
	And and and we.	00:43:35
	We followed your rules and and your guidance on the recorded exemption and.	00:43:37
	I have a residual there that's going to be idle land.	00:43:42
	And it's too small to farm.	00:43:46
	To get anything off of it, if we have, we do work for the dairy farmers and they come out and run their big equipment on our farm.	00:43:49
	Hardly even turn around on that. So that's going to be a.	00:43:57
	A partial there that.	00:44:00
	That we haven't. We can't. We have.	00:44:03
	Nothing to do with it. And then?	00:44:06
	And then we've paid about $80,000 to run up a domestic line right along County Road 3 there to help that.	00:44:08
	And do lots there and then. So here we are.	00:44:16
	And so.	00:44:19
	I feel like.	00:44:21
	I appreciate what you're saying.	00:44:22
	To work with the planning division.	00:44:25
	But if you have only two options for me, I'm sorry that that doesn't get it.	00:44:27
	Well, and I appreciate that, Sir, we have to look at planning from a broader perspective than a case by case, right. And that's	00:44:31
	why we've tried to set forth the best options that we can with our planning department. And and there may be even an opportunity	00:44:37
	for you for a small subdivision on this track of land where you might not have it on that property to the north of you. I can't	00:44:42
	tell you without having more information, but that's again.	00:44:48
	If you're trying to break that up, my best advice?	00:44:54
	And, and, and I've already gotten word from the planning division is keep working with them, right? They'll do their best for you.	00:44:57
	And, and that would be my encouragement for you. But again, I appreciate you bringing these concerns to us and thank you for being	00:45:01
	here.	00:45:05
	Thank you for being here. All right, so the Grizzlies are in the house.	00:45:09
	Your timing is perfect.	00:45:15
	I am going to read this proclamation if you want to come up here and.	00:45:17
	Coaches and players and all.	00:45:23
	And we're going to ask you to introduce yourselves and tell us what year.	00:45:26
	You are in your schooling.	00:45:31

	Ethan Walmeyer, Julian Jensen and Jordan Fernandez, We are equally proud of their parents and coaches for their investment into	00:46:18
	our young people.	00:46:22
	And whereas a state championship is something every school strives for but few actually achieve.	00:46:27
	The unique honor of being called a champion is something we celebrate today.	00:46:33
	And we encourage team members to remember the feeling as we move forward in life.	00:46:37
	Call upon the same traits shown this season, hard work, determination, teamwork and when striving to overcome future challenges.	00:46:42

	They really were involved and.	00:47:34
	I just can't believe it. They did amazing this year.	00:47:38
	That is a woman.	00:47:40
	I'm just really thankful to be able to be a part of this team, not only, you know, where we were able to.	00:47:45
	Be able to bring home a state championship to Northridge and to Greeley and to everyone here.	00:47:52
	But we were able to do it together as a team.	00:47:57
	And really, the best part of all this isn't.	00:48:01
	The championship is not the winning, it's just.	00:48:04

	with you and your team.	00:49:17
	Moving forward now.	00:49:21
	I was blessed to be able to go to state as a high school athlete as well, but I would never was part of a championship team, so	00:49:22

	I coached for many years and we had that opportunity.	00:49:47
	Here's what's tough They're going to come looking for you next year, right? So it takes additional hard work.	00:49:50
	Making sure you're ready to meet those opponents next year. But I know it took a lot of hard work, a lot of dedication on each and	00:49:56
	everyone of your parts. I want to say not only thank you to you and your coaches, great job, but I want to say thank you to the	00:50:01
	parents. It takes a lot of effort getting into practices and taking them to tournaments and bowling meets. And so I just want to	00:50:07
	say thank you to everybody. It takes a team effort.	00:50:12
	Way to go. Good job.	00:50:18
	So I want to congratulate you also. I remember being on the bowling team and, and even Commissioner Freeman and I when we were in	00:50:20

	applaud you on that. I also.	00:50:31
	Applied the appearance for getting you to your practices.	00:50:36
