“Would you like me to speak? Yeah, Jason, why don't you warn Riv? Absolutely. I just didn't know if you were going to take a different tact than going through the presentation, so that was my fault.”

“Well, thank you very much for that, Vince. Thank you very much for that. Roberta, do we have anybody else for public comment? So I believe we... I was just about to check. So Matt or Chris, I don't know who's back there manning the line. Do we have anybody on the line for a public comment?”

“Commissioner, actually, I was thinking along the same lines because I was going to ask Tim, for example, if we wanted to interest in transferring a property, does that require a public hearing? What's the process for something like that?”
Board of County Commissioners · Aug 20, 2026
- Play at 2:00:51
“Got it. So, Commissioner, I agree with you. I think some kind of... uh, approval of, of the concept that we're interested in is that we want to direct staff to work with VIP in the arc to determine, you know, uh, uh, the feasibility to, to get the appraisal done, to start moving things in that direction, uh, which also the same time allows questions that commissioner Kyler has to, to be answered. Uh, but it also, you know, gets us moving down that path. All right.”

“at a point in time that works for you and then we can also look at the transferring of the property and who it has to go to um right now in all that can be changed as well we can also ask the delegation if we wanted to have the ability to do it in a different way but that's my that's my motion if anybody commissioner may i suggest a slightly altered wording just to to what if we had a motion to conceptually approve the freedom center and to direct staff to coordinate with the ark and vip on all related issues and questions does that work that's right and all tim does that does that adequately…”

“Let's do that part first, then we'll do the appraisal part second. Okay, all right. So we have a motion to conceptually approve the Freedom Center and to direct staff to coordinate with the ARC and VIP on all related issues and questions. Do we have a second? And then come back with a briefing paper. And come back with a briefing paper. Second. All right, we have a motion, we have a second. Is there any discussion on that particular motion?”

“So on that note, and Robert, I know this is your last day. I know you've dealt with contracts and all sorts of things grant related over the years. I guess I have two questions for you. First of all is, and I'd like Don's suggestion, would that have to be a part of the motion that has been made or is that something else that we would discuss in conjunction with the appraisal or something else? And if so...”

“Yes, Commissioner. You do have a second? Yes. Okay. You were the second.”
Board of County Commissioners · Aug 20, 2026

“I'll make a second because I want to discuss it. So as Roberta has mentioned, the specifics of the appraisal, what we want to see, what we want to look for, might better come out of these conversations that will begin between VIP ARC and our staff. And so my suggestion, my thought is that as those conversations begin and we get a sense of what it is that we're looking at, then staff can come back to us and say, this is the appraisal that we're suggesting, this is what we want to see, rather than us just making kind of like a blanket, we want an appraisal. Having those specifics come back to…”

“all right so up next because we have a somewhat truncated schedule uh we have items number seven through eighteen which are procurements and so what i'm going to do is i'm going to read down through the list of all these procurements that we're going to be taking as a group and if any of my commissioners have or my fellow commissioners have any specific questions on any of those specific items we can pull those out because we have the directors with us but short of that i'm going again i'm going to for the sake of one unified vote on all these items i'm going to read through them and again if…”
