The single biggest item in the one and only event that we've done as a county was to ensure that whatever they did with their project, they didn't take hard water from it emotionally. It's something that that's the biggest. concern from the public whenever they start talking about any of the projects that are going on is we don't have enough water to take and see our future not being very complicated and we want to make sure that any project that's considered doesn't use the water…

approve this project later you're not required to approve the investments and later all we're doing is just continuing the discussion and that's important for the public to know that it was conveyed over media that today was like a stopgap measure I believe you know it's like we want to be notified of things this is just the beginning stage day one of a request from an entity I think they've telegraphed
And that's one more step in the process that we don't utilize our local attorney's office. We go outside to utilize professionals that deal with these type of situations all the time. Because what friends talk about today by the public I want you to know that
I make a motion that we accept the financial report from the current treasurer as presented.
transfer $9,412.41 from the general fund to the EOC fund to provide sufficient appropriations to pay the EOC expenses and furthermore that we reclassify the budgeted grant awards to be moved into appropriating the funds

I can motion that the federal bills amount to $172,368 in less than it has provided to this property. Second.
I'd like to compliment the way that the county responded to the recent flood event. I want to take and thank the Sheriff's Department and all of the policing agencies throughout the county as well as the ESDs. Everyone stepped up, our own emergency operations center and our emergency manager and our curbside team stepped up as well.
