“Okay, and then – Do you have a preference? Because I think they're asking which format to use. I don't know if you have a preference. I do like the new format better, just because it helps tell the story. You know, it's not over. Let's go with that.”

“Well, I'm indifferent to that, but I do have a couple of comments that I'd like to make. First of all, we can't quite pull off the 4.255. We're about a million shy of that. So we're going to have to do some trimming. And as it relates to buildings, the commission has made it a priority, and we have a needs assessment to back this up, to do an addition at the jail and an addition here at the complex somewhere. We haven't gone through a needs assessment for a... He's calling about a fire district headquarters there. I don't know that we absolutely need that today, but even if we do, to me, I…”

“I meant VFD. Thank you. Yeah, that's different. Thanks. It's good to have friends, right? So anyway, that's a point that I want to make. And honestly, it's essentially outside of a few increases that Amanda pointed out. It's essentially exactly what we looked at last time if we took out the headquarters. So, and again, this commission has not prioritized that. We have not considered that or prioritized that. And Amanda said earlier too, and it's right, whatever we use, it's going to have to be done from capital. This doesn't generate enough revenue to do a big capital project like that. Maybe…”

“And I absolutely agree with Amanda. Let me tell you one thing really quickly is NACO, we get one bill, NACO gets five. NACO is, they're looking at paring that down soon. but one of the ones they're considering is the open space one, which is the one we have here. So I kind of have a good feeling they're going to take that, although I don't know for sure. And then the other thing is, like Amanda said, with the septic thing, there is an absolute disconnect between building department and that septic system. You wouldn't think there would be, but there is a disconnect. You can literally have a…”

“I would second that. Got a motion and a second. Any other discussion? I think it is the biggest area of impact when you think about it. Outside of the cities and Montello, everybody in the whole county is on the septic system. Everyone. So it's a big number. Rex, any comments?”

“I did have just a couple of quick questions. Just a point of clarification, Rex. I know that there are wellhead protection plans out there. In fact, I'm looking on their presentation. And Elko, Carlin, Wells, Westland all have well protection head plans. Jackpot, Spring Creek, Elko County School District, and Spring Creek and Lamoille all have well head protection plans. That's probably well over 90% of our population that's on a community system that has that. But, you know, I mean, it gets down to the line of coming up with, making sure that we know what, and with that, we've done massive…”
