“Yeah, I mean, I just, you know, I agree that, you know, I wish we would have had a little bit more time to review this. And maybe we can take that time, Chief. I'm not sure if, you know, if vote today is necessary. You know, can we have some time to read through the document? And, I mean, I guess I'd also like to just ask, like, Jordan just said, you know, it's up to the department to determine who they're going to share information with.

“Yeah. And judge, I just want to say, um, and I guess I'm going to look to Candace's office, uh, you know, because even though, okay, I'm fine taking a vote today, maybe a couple of things. It's not the first time, and Jordan, please don't take this wrong because it's not always your office or whatever, but when we have information that is needed in the backup, it's really helpful to have it prior to us coming to court and just being handed.

“I WOULD JUST SAY, JUDGE, THAT, YOU KNOW, I GUESS I DID MENTION IT LAST TIME. I THINK IF WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT TERM LIMITS THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT IT HOLISTICALLY, NOT JUST ONE INDIVIDUAL ORGANIZATION THAT WE APPOINT MEMBERS TO. You know, because I've heard of other concerns throughout the county, you know, with other appointments that this body makes. And so I just feel that if we're going to do that, then we need to look at every. entity that we appoint people to and see if that is what this court wants to do. And maybe it is the right thing to do to give other people an opportunity. But…”

I'd like to get a list of all the organizations or departments or agencies or whatever it is, boards that we appoint people to, and maybe we can have a further, more in-detail discussion regarding appointments and how we want to move forward on those.”
