Okay, next on the agenda, we are recognizing Al McNutt from the highway department and 00:07:28.990 --> 00:07:34.350 his retirement. Mr. McNutt and Mr. Rasmussen, would you like to come up to the podium, please? 00:07:34.890 --> 00:08:04.340 Congratulations on your retirement. I'll read a little biography here of Mr. McNutt. He graduated from 00:08:04.340 --> 00:08:11.080 Morrison Institute of Technology and began working in the county in 1986 as an engineering technician. 00:08:11.580 --> 00:08:19.160 Over the next 40 years, I can't believe that, 40 years. Wow. Through May of 2026, you build a distinguished 00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:49.040 career marked by professionalism, integrity, and strong work ethic, earning the respect of your colleagues and friends alike. Al's technical experience, reliability, and attention to detail made him a valuable team member and trusted resource. He's also served as a mentor, generously sharing his knowledge and encouragement with others throughout his career. As he enters retirement, Al looks forward to spending more time with family, enjoying your hobbies, traveling, and 00:08:49.040 --> 00:09:04.260 and Embracing New Adventures. While you'll be missed, your legacy of dedication, excellence, and kindness will continue to inspire others. Congratulations on an outstanding 40-year career and best wishes and a happy and fulfilling retirement. Thanks for your service. 00:09:05.180 --> 00:09:22.260 We've got two certificates. This was put together by the Highway Department and this is on behalf of the County Board. Would you like to say a few words? 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.600 I just appreciate everybody putting up with me for 40 years. 00:09:29.980 --> 00:09:33.680 I work with a lot of good people, especially Dale. 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.180 When Dale come along, he really was an inspiration. 00:09:39.560 --> 00:09:42.640 Other than that, it's hard to let go after 40. 00:09:43.420 --> 00:09:46.060 So each day I'm home, I'm like, okay, what should I be doing? 00:09:47.560 --> 00:09:48.980 But I appreciate this. 00:09:49.140 --> 00:09:50.940 Yeah, we appreciate everything you've given. 00:09:51.520 --> 00:09:52.540 Dale, would you like to say something? 00:09:52.540 --> 00:09:59.980 Al's been a mainstay with the county, he was one of the very dependable 00:09:59.980 --> 00:10:25.220 He was one of the very dependable employees that we've had. It's his construction experience and bridge inspection experience that's going to be very, very hard to replace. And just his knowledge of Stevenson County highways and bridges. But fortunately, after his retirement, he's coming to work with a consultant and doing some of the same work. So we can still depend on him into his retirement. 00:10:25.220 --> 00:10:28.520 So hopefully for another year and 10 months 00:10:28.520 --> 00:10:30.620 Thank you 00:10:30.620 --> 00:10:53.880 Okay, next we have proclamations 00:10:53.880 --> 00:10:54.620 I'm sorry 00:10:54.620 --> 00:10:57.940 Zoning report, I apologize 00:10:57.940 --> 00:10:59.460 Director Williams 00:10:59.460 --> 00:11:09.200 Good evening 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.960 The text amendment before you was approved by the Zoning Board of Appeals in May 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:17.780 The incorrect version was approved at last month's county board meeting 00:11:17.780 --> 00:11:21.020 No changes have been made to the ordinance itself 00:11:21.020 --> 00:11:26.380 This version is simply a cleaned up version of what was originally intended to be presented for approval. 00:11:27.740 --> 00:11:28.540 Any questions? 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:31.680 Is there a motion to approve? 00:11:32.680 --> 00:11:34.320 By Mr. Busker, is there a second? 00:11:34.420 --> 00:11:35.160 By Mr. Diddens. 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:35.880 Any discussion? 00:11:38.760 --> 00:11:40.800 Seeing none, you may go ahead and cast your vote. 00:11:50.420 --> 00:11:52.360 And that passes 12 to 0. 00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:53.760 Anything else, Director Williams? 00:11:53.900 --> 00:11:54.280 No, sir. 00:11:54.420 --> 00:11:55.280 Thank you very much. 00:11:55.300 --> 00:11:55.380 Thank you. 00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:56.100 Appreciate it. 00:11:57.500 --> 00:12:00.440 Chairman's report, I'll be brief. 00:12:02.060 --> 00:12:15.320 Two months ago, I guess it was, we heard from Engineer Rasmussen about overweight trucks traversing county roads and causing damage, trying to figure out a solution to that. 00:12:15.560 --> 00:12:24.000 The Sheriff's Office volunteered to take scale training, and they have done so, and they've already made an impact on that. 00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:35.160 in the short amount of time that they've done that, they've already gotten one truck that was operating overweight, 28,000 pounds per axle. 00:12:36.340 --> 00:12:42.580 They were also uninsured, not licensed to the truck itself, and there was no CDL. 00:12:42.580 --> 00:12:44.920 So it's already made an impact. 00:12:45.780 --> 00:12:52.580 Hopefully more individuals that are operating illegally overweight on our roads will... 00:12:52.580 --> 00:13:00.820 be convinced not to do so or face the consequences. Mr. Newton, I'm going to kind of put you on the spot 00:13:00.820 --> 00:13:07.120 tonight. It's been a while since we've had a UCCI update. Do you have anything that you could share with us? 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:31.050 Right, we're good. The annual UCCI conference is coming up in July. I don't know if everyone has had 00:13:31.050 --> 00:13:37.150 an opportunity to register, but it is a wonderful event. We usually have some training that goes 00:13:37.150 --> 00:13:44.550 forth this year, I think. Just about three different training courses that we're going to have. And if you 00:13:44.550 --> 00:13:50.330 haven't registered so far, please, I think there's a little bit of time left. There's a, this year, 00:13:50.410 --> 00:13:56.690 there's a, as always, there's a golf outing that will happen. And then we're going to take those who 00:13:56.690 --> 00:14:04.250 are not golfing. We're going to take a bus tour into Galena and allow you to do some shopping there in 00:14:04.250 --> 00:14:11.490 the Galena area downtown. So it's going to be a wonderful event. We've got some great speakers lined up. 00:14:11.630 --> 00:14:19.910 So that's our immediate upcoming convention that's coming up. And so the only other thing is that this 00:14:19.910 --> 00:14:23.610 year, and it's getting a little late in the season. I don't know if it's too late. I don't know how many 00:14:23.610 --> 00:14:31.370 people have signed up, but we want to take as many as possible to our annual NACO event this year. 00:14:31.370 --> 00:15:01.350 we have a individual who's running for the national second vice vice president of the entire organization and he is in the state of Illinois and so we've put a little extra money out there to take individuals if you are interested you need to see Chairman Helms and he will allow you or not allow you depends on how much money we have and how many people are going to attend that event and that's a wonderful event a lot of training a lot of 00:15:01.370 --> 00:15:08.170 a lot of training. And if you have an opportunity to go, I would recommend it. So those are the, that's all I have at this time. 00:15:09.450 --> 00:15:13.810 So I'm understanding also there'll be a Washington, D.C. trip in September. Is that correct? 00:15:14.130 --> 00:15:20.850 We will be funding a Washington, D.C. trip for all Illinois County Board members who'd like to go as well. 00:15:20.930 --> 00:15:24.190 And so more details will come in about a month. 00:15:24.450 --> 00:15:26.790 Okay. Very good. Thank you. I appreciate that. 00:15:26.790 --> 00:15:32.470 All right, we'll move on to the appointments of Margaret Christensen to the Board of Review. 00:15:32.470 --> 00:15:37.310 It's actually a reappointment and a reappointment of Kevin Boyer to the Board of Review. 00:15:37.310 --> 00:15:39.630 How would the Board like to handle these? 00:15:39.630 --> 00:15:44.000 Mr. Frick, go ahead. 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:45.000 Press your button. 00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:46.000 There we go. 00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:47.000 Go ahead, Mr. Frick. 00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:48.000 Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:52.440 I would ask that we are moved to approve both of these at once. 00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.560 All right, motion by Mr. Frick to approve both, second by Mr. Busker. 00:15:56.560 --> 00:16:37.800 Any discussion on these? Seeing none, you may cast your vote. And that passes 12-0. Thank you very much. Next we have a proclamation, the approval of the Juneteenth Independence Day. I'm going to read this real quick and I'll ask for a vote to approve. Whereas President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was issued on January 1st, 1863, yet news of the end of slavery did not reach the frontier areas of the United States, and in particular the southwestern state, 00:16:37.820 --> 00:17:06.920 for over two and a half years. On June 19th, 1865, Union soldiers led by Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas with news that the Civil War had ended and that the enslaved were free. African Americans who had been enslaved in the Southwest began celebrating on June 19th, 1866 on a day known as Juneteenth Independence Day. It's a day of inspiration and encouragement for future generations. 00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:32.300 The Stevenson County Board acknowledges the historical significance of Juneteenth Independence Day to the United States and the residents of Stevenson County are encouraged to join the continued nationwide celebration of Juneteenth Independence Day to provide an opportunity for the people of the United States to learn more about the past and to better understand the experiences of enslaved people that have helped shape the country. 00:17:32.300 --> 00:17:40.620 The Stevenson County Board hereby recognizes and celebrates Juneteenth as part of history and heritage of the United States 00:17:40.620 --> 00:17:48.760 Now therefore be it resolved by the Stevenson County Board that June 19th is recognized as Juneteenth Independence Day 00:17:48.760 --> 00:17:58.780 and encourages everyone to join in celebration and solidarity and urges all residents to actively raise their own awareness of the significance of this celebration 00:17:58.780 --> 00:18:04.160 in American history and in the heritage of our nation and county. 00:18:04.840 --> 00:18:06.460 Is there a motion to approve? 00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:09.080 By Mr. Bush. 00:18:09.140 --> 00:18:09.780 Is there a second? 00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:12.400 By Mr. Newton. 00:18:12.600 --> 00:18:13.720 Is there any discussion? 00:18:15.560 --> 00:18:17.400 Seeing none, please cast your vote. 00:18:28.520 --> 00:18:30.020 And that passes 13 to 0. 00:18:30.120 --> 00:18:30.880 Thank you very much. 00:18:31.300 --> 00:18:34.580 We'll move on to action items and information from standing committees. 00:18:34.580 --> 00:18:35.860 First is finance. 00:18:36.060 --> 00:18:38.560 Mrs. Baker, you have an action item. 00:18:39.060 --> 00:19:23.210 Yes.

This policy came from another county that was approved there, and it was brought over here and reviewed, and so I'd like to make a motion to approve it. 00:19:53.210 --> 00:19:57.510 Thank you.

And they were grateful for the work that our vendor did, Franson Tree Service, to get the trees cleared up and get everything 00:23:02.850 --> 00:23:06.130 out of there so that they could have their event that went really well. 00:23:06.630 --> 00:23:19.010 And they're ready to do this for the 200th, for the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Blackhawk there in 2032. 00:23:20.270 --> 00:23:21.330 That's all I have. Thank you. 00:23:21.370 --> 00:23:22.430 It's good to plan, isn't it? 00:23:23.950 --> 00:23:25.030 Thank you, Mr. Frick. 00:23:25.070 --> 00:23:28.990 I'd also like to thank Wally Remmers for the work that he did out there prior to the event 00:23:28.990 --> 00:23:30.650 and getting that ready to go. 00:23:30.650 --> 00:23:32.270 I know he spent quite a bit of time there. 00:23:32.270 --> 00:23:38.530 So thank you, Mr. Frick. Public Works, Mr. Brandt, you have five action items. 00:23:42.770 --> 00:23:50.990 Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The first is the approval of the addendum to the commercial lease agreement that we have on Meadows Drive. 00:23:53.090 --> 00:23:59.030 If I can get a, I'll make a motion to approve that. And if I can get a second, I'll give you some more details on that. 00:23:59.190 --> 00:24:02.190 Very good. Is there a second by Mr. Jogerst? Go ahead, Mr. Brandt. 00:24:02.190 --> 00:24:02.790 Thank you. 00:24:02.970 --> 00:24:06.370 So this came to light as we were doing our build out. 00:24:07.290 --> 00:24:11.970 We did not have internet service to the building that was hardwired. 00:24:12.310 --> 00:24:21.050 So we had to reach out to Arrow to get a fiber optic cable run. 00:24:21.790 --> 00:24:32.110 And it became really quite apparent that what we really needed to do was to have this agreement 00:24:32.110 --> 00:25:04.790 with our landlord because they wanted to pay the, very generously, they were going to pay the installation fee but they were also going to accept some other contract terms. So this agreement, this addendum allows us to just reimburse the landlord for the monthly internet and they will take care of the other components of the agreement with Arrow. So it's a win-win for everybody. Great. Thank you. Discussion? Seeing none, you may cast your vote. 00:25:04.930 --> 00:25:43.550 and that passes 12-0. Mr. Brandt, your next item, please. The next one is a memorandum of understanding. This is an agreement with Lafayette County in Wisconsin because it became apparent that on Stateline Road there is two bridges that we would be actually trying to work with them on trying to calculate repairs and inspections and maintenance and whatnot. 00:25:43.550 --> 00:26:25.760 So what this agreement does is put Lafayette County in charge of those bridges and the inspection requirements maintenance repairs all fall upon them. So this is like Christmas in June. With that, I move to approve. Thank you. Is there a second? Second by Mr. Diddens. Any discussion? Seeing none, you may cast your vote. And that passes 13-0. Thank you. 00:26:25.760 --> 00:26:55.480 The next item. The approval of the bid tabs was removed earlier. So we're moving down to HD 2610, which is the approval of the joint agreement for the reconstruction of Route 26 and McConnell Road intersection. This is a fully funded project as a result of an award from the state, a grant from them. And so this also is a 00:26:55.480 --> 00:27:24.480 wonderful opportunity that we have. There is a small appropriation of $30,000 in case the current projections come in slightly over the engineer expectations, but otherwise this is also a positive development. So with that I make a motion to approve the resolution. Thank you. Is there a second? Mr. Newton? Second. Okay. Is there any discussion? 00:27:24.480 --> 00:27:55.200 Yes. Mr. Diddens, go ahead. Yes, I just wondered, are they just going to make the intersection bigger, flatter? I mean, what's the plan? They're not going to put a roundabout in, are they? No roundabout. But there is going to be the addition of a left turn lane on the southbound traffic of 26. Okay. Great. Great. That's all. Thank you. Okay. Any other discussion? Mr. Hadley, go ahead. Real quick, when is this going to be done? 00:27:55.820 --> 00:28:35.600 Engineer Rasmussen told me to be done by the end of 2026 construction season correct and he said if it wasn't he was going to stay as our engineer for another 10 years that sounds that sounds like a deal but I believe that is correct the end of 2026 correct yeah okay thank you anything else mr. Hadley no thank you all right any other discussion all right seeing none you can cast your vote and that passes 12-0 your next item please 00:28:35.620 --> 00:28:57.760 The next is a resolution to approve a bid. This is a bid awarded to Martin & Company, $444,273. It is an agreement with West Point on North Shippey Road, so I move to approve. 00:28:57.760 --> 00:29:06.750 Thank you. Is there a second by Mr. Jogerst? Any discussion? Seeing none, please cast your vote. 00:29:06.750 --> 00:29:17.890 and that passes 13 to 0. 00:29:18.330 --> 00:29:19.690 Your final item, please. 00:29:20.730 --> 00:29:29.290 This is an approval of the truck and snow equipment for a tandem cabin chassis that we have had on order for about one year now. 00:29:30.070 --> 00:29:42.510 That truck, we expect it to come in this fall, and then we need to equip it with the bed and the plows and the rest of the equipment. 00:29:42.510 --> 00:29:56.030 and that is a lengthy process as well so what this does is one, set the price, two, get us in the queue and be prepared for the arrival of that truck. So I move to approve HD2612. 00:29:56.030 --> 00:30:02.000 Thank you. Is there a second by Mr. Busker? Discussion? Mr. Hadley, go ahead. 00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:12.000 Yes, I have a question. Back in February, we purchased another truck from Dubuque in Iowa, a Freightliner. 00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:16.000 Are these both same type of trucks or different trucks? 00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:21.000 I believe they're both tandem axle trucks, meant to be snowplow trucks. 00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:49.140 trucks. They're both. So we're getting two trucks this year sometime then? One this year, perhaps the other one next year. There's still a backlog on those. So fingers crossed. Another reason why there's interest in getting maybe moving that second truck up a little bit was because there's a new exhaust emission standards going to be put in place. 00:30:49.140 --> 00:31:31.420 and Mr. Jansen was trying to get ahead of that issue so that's usually not a good thing to cut your teeth on so I see the prices are almost similar but not not too much difference in it so okay thank you thank you Mr. Hadley any other discussion seeing none please cast your vote and that passes 13 to 0 any other information out of your committee Mr. Brandt nothing else at this time thank you Mr. Chairman I know I 00:31:31.420 --> 00:31:40.420 I had asked if it was likely that the animal control new building would be up and operational by July 1st. 00:31:40.420 --> 00:31:43.420 I'm assuming we're on schedule with that, hopefully. 00:31:43.420 --> 00:31:48.420 We've been paying rent on that building since January, so it would be good to get that finished up. 00:31:48.420 --> 00:31:52.420 That concludes all the agenda items. Is there a motion to adjourn? 00:31:52.420 --> 00:31:53.420 So moved. 00:31:53.420 --> 00:31:55.420 By Mr. Bush, second by Mr. Busker. 00:31:55.420 --> 00:31:59.420 Any discussion on adjourning? If not, please cast your vote. 00:31:59.420 --> 00:32:10.960 That passes 12-0. Thank you, everyone. Have a good weekend.
