Judge Hauser, you have a report or you just want to wait for the budget?
What I would report would be summarized Good evening.
The only thing I want to report is, I think I said it last month, we did have our new probation Supervisor, Start.
She's three days in.
She's come back.
So, so far so good.
You know, she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience and a lot of wisdom, so I'm excited.
Would you just refresh my memory?
Was she a local person or?
No, she was in Cook County, worked there for 20 years.
Anything else?
No, that's it.
Thank you very much.
Mr. Larson.
Everyone should have our report to court services.
I'd be happy to answer any questions you had, but otherwise I know we've got a lot of ground to cover and I'll save any further comments on the budget.
Okay, Ms. Bardell.
Diversion fee, $542.02 was deposited and gets us a total of $3,655.30.
I'm guessing that there's a check that has not yet been cashed, but without Georgia here we probably can't.
Okay, old business, seeing none, new business we've got a whole lot of.
So the approval of the ordinance amending civil fees and criminal and traffic assessments charged by the clerk of the circuit court.
So I had to apologize.
I left that folder on my desk.
The Jasmine is printing it off for me.
So she should be bringing that down in a minute.
We were informed that the governor signed a bill adding $5.
To the guardianship and advocacy fund and repealing another part of the guardianship fee that went into effect July 1st.
We weren't informed by the Association of Illinois Courts until I think it was August 3rd or something, so we're trying to amend that ordinance, adding the $5, which goes So the $100 fee is something that they did we used to collect the $100 county did?
I believe that went to the state too though.
So do you know how much we're going to lose, or I mean, was this always going to the state or was this coming to us and now the state wants it?
I'm going to have to double check on that, but I believe the hundred dollar fee was broken up 90 and 10.
I think the state was getting 90 and I'm not sure if we were getting 10.
I'm not sure how much we will be losing.
It doesn't sound like we're going to lose a lot.
Yeah, we don't really have an option.
They signed it in the 11th hour I guess in the farm bill and that's why no one noticed that it went through and we were hoping that they would give us time to implement it but it was effective immediately okay well should we just move on to the skip over that one and review and go down to the review and The first budget we have is 804.
It's in the general fund.
So the department head, my salary is by resolution.
The administrative assistant is by the county budget policy, the 3.5%.
And then the regular circuit clerk deputies is a union contract of a dollar increase.
Four times we haven't had to do weekend court or anything, I'm hoping we won't, so I did lower that, $2,000, stationery stayed the same, shredding stayed the same, postage miscellaneous state the same.
E-Citation, I lowered $10,000.
A lot of that stuff we had to pay more up front so I shouldn't be using as much.
And service contracts state the same.
I know in a lot of some of these items, you know, I budget for stuff, but I have spent less.
And that's because of the technology grant or the access to justice grant, which I never or know if I'm going to be getting or how much.
Last year, the technology grant was only 50,000.
And the year before, we got 310,000.
So I still budget for it, but thankfully I haven't had to spend it all because I've had other resources, but you never know what you'll get in the future.
Okay.
Any questions on that?
Any questions?
Just a comment.
From the 2026 budget to the 2020, 8-07 budget looks like it's lower.
If I'm reading that right, correct?
Yes.
So your budget's coming in lower than from last year's budget.
That's fabulous.
All right, then we go on to 8-07, which is jury.
The juror amounts stay the same.
Stationary supplies and postage.
I did raise that a little because we have to, the postage is going up and I have to find, I'm a little bit sending out a lot of, a lot of summonses and then a lot of reminder summonses.
So I did raise that 500.
Jurr meals stay the same and printing and binding.
At first I did raise that a little bit but I think I can move that that I found out a thousand, I was one.
That was one thing that I didn't change back.
Okay.
Any questions?
So you're going to change that in the computer then?
Yeah, I will.
Okay.
We'll sort out the document storage next.
So the expenses, the mill.
Stationary and supplies stay the same.
Last year the grant was $50,000.
That's what I put in for this year.
I have no idea what it will be What it will be or if they even offer it.
So that's something is if I get it, I spend it.
If I don't, I don't spend it.
Office equipment stays the same and lease and maintenance stay the same.
Any questions?
Your interest income, where does that come from?
That comes from our account and we get some on one of our other accounts, one of our other bank accounts.
So CDs?
No.
The last one is automation, which is 25.
Stationary and supplies stay the same, office equipment the same, and lease and maintenance the same.
Questions on that page?
Mr. Chairman, can we approve this even though there's a change on that one amount?
You can make a motion to amend, or you could just go over it until next month and ask her Bushman, Mr. Hadley, seconded by Ms. Biddens, any discussion, all those in favor say aye.
All right, same sign, that page passes, next page is the Juror Commission 807, can I get a motion to amend this, the line 51300 from 1500 down to $1,000.
No, that's the wrong one, it's 62100.
Oh, sorry, yep, I read that wrong.
Sorry, it's 62100, can I get a motion to amend that?
I'll make a motion to amend that, down to a thousand.
Motion by Ms. Williams, second.
Second by Mr. Hadley.
Any further discussion?
Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Those opposed, same sign.
Motion passes.
The next one is 22, document storage was the last one.
No, sorry, document storage is the next one.
So on the tech, can I ask her some questions?
Yes, yes.
So on the technology, it's going from $300,000 down to $50,000.
Yes, and this year we only got $50,000 also.
Okay, so that's what we're going to budget is that.
And you think that we're going to make revenue an extra $10,000 then on the document storage fee?
From 60 to 70.
Last year, you budgeted 60 for revenue.
You're budgeting 70.
Yeah.
Okay.
I just want to look at some numbers here first.
Yeah.
Motion to approve.
I'll make a second.
Okay.
Motion by Mr. Hyndman, second by Ms. Williams.
Okay.
No further discussion.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Opposed?
Same sign.
Motion passes the document storage budget and then the last but not least is the court automation and your further discussion I'll make a second second by Ms. Williams all those in favor say aye, aye, same sign, motion passes, great okay thank you move on to the state's attorney Mr. Larson thank you everyone should have our budget in front of you it's the long sheet right here like this it is a status quo budget the only changes are changes that have been pre-approved by the County Board so be happy to answer any questions you may have I will make a motion.
Thank you.
Ms. Williams?
Second.
Yeah, second.
Okay, second.
But I want to vote.
Yep.
No, just take some time.
Go ahead and take some time.
Thank you.
Yep.
$1,000 Grant.
I see that through 731, we've only, refresh my memory, is this a grant we get from the state then?
I don't remember whether that's a state or a federal grant.
They're in partnership with the Pre-Fork Police Department and Voices.
Voices kind of.
Voices kind of ropes the laboring board in the grant application and then we just kind of add our aspect of that partnership to the grant and then the money comes to us.
Okay then.
What happens if we don't use the whole 40,000?
Does it roll over?
I think it's largely a reimbursement, like we could use up to $40,000 and they'll give us up to $40,000, but I think if we don't use it, we don't get it.
Okay, okay.
Okay, so that's just to piggyback on Bill's.
So you're saying that the grant is going to be $42,000?
No.
The grant will be $40,000.
Yes.
So the difference would have to come out of that.
There is no difference.
Whatever we use, we use.
Whatever we don't use, we don't get.
Looks like it's hooked, though.
We're talking about a person, though, aren't we?
A person's salary?
It reimburses a part of one of our assistant state attorney's salaries, yes.
And also pays for some trainings and things of that nature.
OK, so there's more to it than just.
There's more to it than a person.
Yes.
Got it.
So I have a question though too about your travel expense.
Looks like, am I reading this right, you spent more than what you budgeted?
That could very well be.
We had two trials where we had to bring people in from our state and a variety of of training opportunities that we took advantage of as well, but our overall budget will be well under budget this year.
And if you just want to put some numbers on how under budget we are, July, the beginning of July is 58% of the year.
If you look at the numbers, we've used 50% of our budget.
So that's the end of July.
So should be even more than 58% of our budget, meaning that we're about 8% under budget with a budget of $926,000.
That should be about $70,000 I guess my problem is I don't see those figures that you're talking about.
They're right here.
No, no.
I see what's on this budget sheet, but I don't see what, am I missing a piece of paper here?
No.
Well, if you want to, if you, I'm curious as to how he's comparing it that he's $70,000 under budget.
Okay.
So let's look at, I guess, why don't we, I mean, we may be even more, we're more under budget than that, but so you see the 2026 through 7-31-26?
Yep.
Okay, so can we functionally call that August 1st?
Sure.
Okay, or actually I guess let's say we're through the seventh month of the year.
There are 12 months of the year, let's get the old calculator out here.
So seven is 58.33% of 12.
So we're 58.33% through the year, right?
Then look down here at 2026 budget and then the amount spent through July 31st, 2026.
So our budget is 9,026,978 and we've spent 469,640.
May, and we've spent $469,640.
So let's look at what we've spent as a percentage.
So $469,460 and we're going to add two zeros to that.
Divide it by $926,700 and you have 50.66% of our budget is spent.
So that means we're about eight percent under budget right now so let's figure out what eight percent of nine nine two six seven eight oops I'm going to redo that so this is our 2026 budget nine two six nine seven eight 20 times.
08 Equals $74,158 that we are under budget right now.
Okay.
So, yes, you are correct.
We are about double, a little more even than double, closer to triple our travel expense.
So that's about $2,000, $2,200 over in that line item.
But the budget as a whole is $74,158.24 under as of July 31st.
And I appreciate you taking the time to explain, get your explanation.
Sure.
Thank you.
That is a remarkable job.
Well, the savings is in lack of personnel, so I wish I had didn't have that savings.
Thanks for the discussion.
Do we have a motion and a second?
Motion to approve.
Motion by Mr. Hadley, seconded by Ms. Williams.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Opposed, same sign.
Motion passes.
Thank you, Ms. Morrison.
And judicial.
Judge, how was it?
Well, it's got the squealing light going through the middle of it.
That's fine.
And with the exception of one entry, everything is the same as last year, although we moved one and move and eliminate two lines because we have determined to put those folks into continuing education, which would again result in everything being the same request except for the very bottom, which is under the law library.
Our research services which is our contract with Westlaw which is our electronic research tool that although it comes out of the law library budget, the public defender's office, the state's attorney's office, all of the judges and the law library have access to of that and the contract that Judge McClanton and consultation with Travis and Carl here is going to be increased by 22 percent and it's basically just because of the much better capabilities of the research abilities that we would have and these two can speak to that much more eloquently than I can.
Yeah, they've done some improvements with AI, I think.
Yes, exactly.
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
It's making things a whole lot easier.
Basically, in a nutshell, it doesn't mean you have guys that don't have anything to add to that.
22% Increase in the number of deads.
Big increase, but it's worth every penny of it.
Yeah, it would be a drastic change even in a couple of months we've had access to that to go back to what we used to have had.
I mean it is an invaluable feature.
One that we can't leave in the Westlaw by itself, we cannot function without having access to the Westlaw.
It's impossible in the legal profession to do it.
But the access that this affords us is a time-saving tool.
Yeah, it's a force multiplier.
I mean, you can do more with fewer people, which is the situation that we're in in the state attorney's office.
And also, there's an issue of competitiveness.
Now, you know, if we did something else, we would probably, you know, you'd do the same thing for the state attorney's office and the public defender's office.
And so we would be on relatively equal ground in that way.
But the state's attorney's office doesn't just try cases against the public defenders, We tried cases against private attorneys of all varieties and they had access to it and we needed to be competitive with them.
I understand it's a lot of money, but it's like telling the sheriff's deputies they can't have squad cars or bullets or handcuffs or something like that.
I mean this is something we need to do our jobs.
So, if I'm reading this right- So, if I'm reading this right, you want 700, you want to close out two line items?
That's correct.
And move those two line items into continued education that would move that 2400 up to 31?
That's correct.
Okay.
You didn't make the changes in the computer yet, or?
Did not happen though, we're trying to proceed on that, so this is where we're at, I apologize.
We can amend that, remove the two lines, where are the two lines?
I see them are the two lines.
There'll be a budget note next to the two that we want to eliminate.
Bocafee said investigation expense, that between the two of them totaled $700, oh yeah I see it now.
How do you want to do this motion?
Can I get a motion to remove those two lines I think first, well I can remove those two lines and add that $700 to the 001-805-68-130 line, is that the right line?
You probably probably want to be more clarified okay we'll take out line 001,805 62,200 yeah we have removed well actually move it to okay let's just remove it first yes remove that line and the other line is 001,806, 68,200.
Correct.
We'll remove those two lines.
Can I get a motion?
Motion.
And I'll make a second.
Motion to remove these two lines from the judicial budget.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Opposed, same sign.
Motion passes.
And then we'll make a motion to increase line 001,805-68-130, continuing education to $3,100 from 2,400.
Mission, motion to approve.
Motion by Mr. Hadley.
I second.
Second by Ms. Williams.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Those opposed say and sign.
Motion passes.
Okay.
And then we'll need a motion to pass the budget, the amended budget.
I'll make a motion to approve the amended judicial budget.
Okay.
Motion by Ms. Williams.
Second.
Seconded by Mr. Hadley.
All those in favor, say aye.
Aye.
Those opposed, same sign, hearing none, budget passes.
Do you have to do the law library budget too?
Is that a separate one? 805, 1808.
Mr. Helms, is that?
If you didn't include it in your motion to approve it, then yes, you need to.
You get a separate motion.
Okay.
We were not specific with our motion for the judicial and the court or the expenses, which is what we're saying we have just approved.
Okay, so we need two more motions, or one motion to approve the court order and the law library.
Can we do those two together?
You can do whatever you want.
The approving them separately is just for transparency purposes, but if you want to include them, you can include them.
Okay.
If we can get a motion to approve, we'll do them singled.
Okay, motion to approve court order.
That was amended.
It was amended.
I'll make a second.
Okay.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Those opposed, same sign.
Okay, so we have two passed.
Now we will do the law library.
Can I get a motion to approve?
I'll make a motion to approve the law library.
Motion by Miss Williams.
Second.
Second by Mr. Hadley.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
I have two budgets.
The first one should have a highlighted page that shows the 020 probation service fees.
Beginning with that budget, essentially all line items come out of probation service Fee.
So just going to open it up to any questions you might have.
Yeah, your probation service fees.
Yeah, that's before we just had kids, but we're including everything and we're getting ready to get a new drug testing system going.
So I put that under there as well.
Very good.
Excited about that.
Trying to keep up with technology.
So if I read this right, looks like our review is going to be Do you think we'll be down in the service fees from the projected $659 to $617?
Yes, I am projecting that just because we're not taking in as much in probation service fees.
We no longer charge for drug testing fees and if cases get closed out in their probation service fees.
It's just harder to collect, I guess.
And your expenses look like they're down from last year from 196 to 178 if I'm reading this, right?
Yeah, so expenses have gone down, though.
So we've tried to make some modifications to adjust to the changes.
So this is all fee-driven, this budget, then?
What efforts do you use to collect fees?
They're court-ordered.
They're court ordered, so if they come in, they come in, and that's about all you can do.
We file violations to attempt to collect those fees.
Do they go to collections?
Some of them go to collections, and so that could take quite a while to get that money, if we get it.
Some pay, some don't.
Some have circumstances where they can't.
They're just there's no money coming in so there's no money to pay anything they're lucky they can exist pretty much I mean we try to be understanding of some of different people's circumstances for the most part we do try and want to get those fees because that is our primary source okay motion to approve okay all right I'll second it the probation fees motion and a second to The second one is the 001, I don't see it listed, but I believe that was understood that I was going to be presenting both of them.
And that's the county.
I call that the county.
That's it.
You should have both of them.
Who did you submit it to?
Georgia?
Uh huh.
Oh, I've got three names.
Um, to Georgia and Dale.
What did you?
She told me that.
All I have is the expenses.
You mean 803? 803 And less for me.
803, Hence I've got expense.
Which is?
I have an annual plan.
Probation service fees definitely have to be approved tonight because now some of the line items have moved per statute of probation.
I prefer to do both I don't know why it wouldn't be approved.
And I can go through and explain a few of the significant changes.
That results in the biggest increase outside of salaries.
Salaries from the department head, which is myself, probation officers, supervisors, as as well as bonuses are all reimbursed by the state operations and are to support staff is per the county budget policy.
The biggest change is the office equipment in which I put in for the vest.
So that's why you see the 400% because we have to have 12 vests for the offices to go out into the field and they're going to expire.
Covation has paid for those things, but due to statute we can no longer pay for those.
I was thinking after we had our meeting that day, should we budget like a third of this every year?
Can we even do that?
Kind of like a savings account so when three years from now when you have to replace it again, it's not a 400% increase, is that even possible?
I think I did it in 22.
So yeah, I have five years.
So I don't know if it would be necessary to do that.
Now bulletproof vests expire sometimes and you've got to change them out.
How good are they?
How long are they good for?
Five.
That's what we do.
Five years.
Yeah.
Because I know in the military we had to always change out our bulletproof vest.
Yeah.
So it's, I think it's a significant amount of time that we wouldn't need to.
And this is for everybody then?
This is for all officers I have, it's for ten officers and two supervisors who have So, Dale, my opinion on that is you should be budgeting expenditures for the next fiscal year, not for subsequent years unless you have a contract in place that's committing you to those dollars, but even so, I still don't see how you allocate excess funds on an expenditure line that you're not going to spend in that fiscal year.
I took the juvenile detention down by 10,000 to try to offset some of that, just a little bit, but as we know, we never know how many.
You should have been back with us.
Well, you were with us back in the 2000s when we were running into huge problems, when we ran out of money at the detention and we had to find money to put in.
We went through a lot of money and had to find money.
It was very difficult back in the early 2000s, you know, when we were doing this.
But I see, you know, that's amazing.
I mean, we used to spend $120,000 just like that.
I mean, they were born a lot in at that time.
You just never know.
I mean, you can have it in for three days, 30 days.
And I think it was more expensive because we were at Mary Taylor or what Mary Davis yeah because the fees were quite expensive there that and since then now we're over in uh Cane County or yes Cane County yeah so that means all of these numbers you know just depends on you know so many circumstances it's just you know it looks bad 400 percent increase but you know it is part of for this, you need them, so I don't know how we get around it.
Yeah, I see, motion to approve.
I'll make a second.
Second motion by Mr. Hadley, second by Ms. Williams.
Thank you.
On the probation of budget, all those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Those opposed, same sign, seeing none, budget passes.
Now we move down to the public defender, Mr. Luce.
Why don't you be the easy one to spot since I didn't even realize Also I looked at this that I printed in a small fashion than it is, so hopefully you can squint enough and see everything that's in there.
If you can, I can take a picture and I'll blow it up on my phone for you.
You know that the top three that are in there, one is the one that's clear, is that my salary is approved by a resolution, which includes the state mandated COLA and also the change in statute that it then changes it to 95% of the state's attorney's office.
The two below that are the budget policy, the 2.5 COLA increases.
All the other line items with the exception of the professional dues stays exactly the same.
I did not realize that we had been paying $750 towards the Chief Defender Association out of a different line, I don't want to explain this rather than the dues for whatever reason that was and then not using the rest of any portions of that, so that includes that as well as the Stevens County Bar Association dues for the attorneys in my office Office.
That amounts to a thousand dollar change from last year to this year.
With the exception of that, everything else is the same.
You're not anticipating any office equipment?
Over $500?
Printer?
I suppose those don't cost that much.
Oh, it's got the $3,000 line item of there.
Well, it's just there's no money left in the account right now.
That's why I'm Wendree.
That's the non, that's non-spent.
I currently have $3,000.
All right.
Okay.
Got it.
Thank you.
Yep.
Motion to approve.
I'll make a second.
All right.
All those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Opposed?
Same sign.
No.
Motion passes.
But I don't know the process to this too.
But I have the additional supplementals that are attached to this.
I don't know if that's such a nice thing.
You can discuss it.
I don't think there's an action item for that.
So I have two of those that are there.
You'll see one of which, the first in that packet that you have is verbatim to one that I submitted a couple of years ago.
I'll be upfront, I have absolutely no expectation that that is going to be granted, but I am including it because like I have told this committee as well as the department head meetings, finances, that I have a strong opinion that us in the County Board rewarding people for trying to get to the gym, that also it makes people healthier, which then ultimately helps is the insurance premiums that we're going to see continue to rise and rise.
And I know that overarchingly the insurance is a driving factor for employment here in the county.
If we were to lose that employment, we would be in a very bad situation, I think, for employees.
So my proposal on there is based on the $19 a month that the county actually gets through the Blue Cross Blue Shield and spilling over with me reimbursing at the end of the year, but I won't go much into other details than that because I'm assuming there's going to be some other issues that this county is going to have to deal with other than the gym memberships.
The second one I submitted is different from that.
It's a supplemental request for what amounts to the third line item in the budget outside of the 3.5 COLA that's there.
I'm asking for an additional 2% for the support staff to outweigh what I anticipate to be the health insurance premiums increasing.
Increasing after I did the math, it was just under 1% worth of additional money they would need to have to offset the increase in premium price for them, which is going to be about 60 something, $61, $62 per pay period, or paycheck, this then would then offset that to allow them to at least experience some of the cold.
I understand the attorneys in my office are compensated well, I think the study board has done a good job of me being able to has done a good job of me being able to be in a position to recruit people and keep people in.
So I'm not looking for that in every aspect of this, but I'm asking for it for the two support staff that I do have, which then in there is broken down and you can see the cost is a total of just over $1,800 with the IMRF of $1,478 and the Social Security of $1, 4137.
I am also cognizant of the fact that I am certain other people have not asked for this and the concerns of that then gives rise to with me making a request and nobody else adding that request and what issues that can arise from so I'm aware of it too, but Because I take it your support staff is not covered under the, correct?
Right, right, we cannot unionize.
Got it.
We can't pass the sentencing, but we will definitely look at it and add it to the agenda for next month.
Thank you.
The budget policy is, you know, exactly on what we should do and should do that.
And I do appreciate you, you know, trying to support your employees and give them all money.
Yeah, I get it, I get it.
You have great staff, I think.
Chairman Helms, do you think Adrian's going to have the nice sheet that she fills out of all everybody's supplements and stuff?
Once they're received, I believe besides the public defender, the only other one that we've seen has been for emergency management and that's really, we're not sure that's actually going to be a supplemental request.
But yes, there will be a format similar to what we've used in the past.
I know that my motion last year was delay the state's attorney's salary.
We split it, didn't we, from 7% and then we went 3.5% last year.
That sounds right.
Were you going to put in for another three and a half, or kind of leave it alone?
I was not planning on putting in for another three and a half, and that was for the attorneys which tried to reach parity with the public defender's office, but he kind of wore me down.
I just wasn't going to ask again this year.
So you're still under?
I would have to look at it, but the numbers I gave you last year, if fully funded, would have brought us into parity with the Assistant Public Defenders and then you cut that in half.
So I would assume that we're not in parity, but I haven't examined that as yet.
I know I made that motion last year.
So I just was wondering on that too.
So, well, I appreciate what you, what you guys did, but it looks like we might have a real tight budget this year.
I would suspect, so we'll just have to wait and see when we get some, when is she going to project revenue numbers, let's see, next month then, hopefully, so we'll see some numbers and stuff, okay.
Okay, the next order of business is youth diversion.
Is there a budget for youth?
No, there wasn't one.
Okay.
So that will have to be laid over until next month, okay.
We'll get it next month.
Okay.
All right.
And then we'll go back to.
Got us all copies of?
Yes.
What has been changed is in red.
Please let me know.
Most of that $5 is on the civil filing fees that didn't affect any of the criminal schedules towards the back.
Okay.
But didn't you say that this money.
What's in red here is.
Is what I've been saying.
Is all on the civil filing fees that didn't affect any criminal schedules towards the back.
Okay, but didn't you say that this money, this what's in red here is what I've added.
But also that's money that goes to the state.
Yeah, the additional five dollars is going to So right now, if you are filing a new case, it would be $306, but they're adding $5 to the guardianship and advocacy fund.
It's going to go up to $311.
I thought you said there was somewhere we had to change some from $100.
All I see is $5.
They subtracted the $100 fee and that wasn't actually broken down in one of the schedules.
So this will clean everything out then?
Yes.
By state statute, correct?
Yes.
Okay.
I see no issue.
Motion by Mr. Hadley, second by Ms. Williams, any further discussion, seeing none, all those in favor say aye.
Aye.
Opposed, same sign.
Motion passes.
I mean, you do have a youth devotion.
I apologize, I didn't see it.
I was trying to get my link on the tablet.
Kind of a slow question.
Who put the youth diversion budget together?
Eve Adrian did.
I believe I'm not 100% certain, but I know she's the one that placed the note on the documents.
It's kind of skewed because of the timing of the payment.
I was not sure what we changed it to last year.
It stays the same.
I make a motion to approve.
