“Mr. Chairman. Yes, sir. This is John. I'll make a motion to approve the quote from fifth gear power sports, but I would appreciate in the future that we have stating it and all that because there's some question on the other one. Sorry, I was thinking of the four-wheeler one down below, but either way. Okay. I'm sorry. Sorry, I was looking at the four-wheeler one that we didn't have the official ones to look at. I was there to discrepancy, but... Anyway, the fifth-year Powers Ford bid for $9,805.25. Correct. Seconds?”

“Aye. Aye. Aye. Vote aye. Awesome. Motion carries. Real quick. Sorry, Domo. No problem. I don't think I need to disclose it.

So I'm telling Rand and the group right now, I don't think I should abstain because I've had like two in 10 years, but I totally forgot about it. But there's my disclaimer. Yeah, I think you're okay.”

“Sure, I'll go first there, Delmo. Mine aligned, my ratings aligned very closely to these numbers here, including the personnel management. And I personally... Gave a slightly lower score than, well, probably about the 4.3 simply because my lack of knowledge on how well she handles personnel. It has nothing to do if she does a good job or bad. It has to do with my own knowledge of how well she does it. That's the only reason I gave her a lower score on that part. Everything else, I think she's very, very high on. especially decision-making problem solving. I think we are extremely fortunate to…”

“So with that. I'll just say you were totally right. I'm going to add to that, not to try to cut you off unless you had the last one. No, go ahead. But that's part of what I was talking about.

“Yeah, yesterday, I wasn't very right. Yes, I have some comments, Mr. Chair. I was on the internal school board, school, Ocoa County School District Capital Meeting Committee yesterday, and I think there are some issues. So there's a very, very, very likely chance we will have a review of their tax increment on the next agenda, on the next commission agenda. Okay. Thank you.”

“I mean, in the past, Salt Lake was such a huge Delta hub, there was not even a question. hub that would be smarter just to switch to Reno anyway? Or are we just at the hands of Delta? It doesn't matter.”

“I think I'd include that in whatever services we charge a credit card. If I pay my property tax for the credit card, I pay these guys. It's all kind of the same. So we really should, if we're looking at, I agree with you, then bring it all unless there's parts that we can't, but the parts we can have as a standard rate, I think we should.
