Would like to say a few words, but something I just have to say. I wrote this approximation, but something you can't really kind 00:19:22
of say. The word is, you know, the prosecutor I had to work with Y'all all the time in cases and you really just can't articulate, 00:19:28
especially in this approximation, how valuable garment you see is. 00:19:33
To UH income survivors, but also to UH prosecute because UH some of these cases, unfortunately, UH will drag on for a year, two 00:19:40
years, just because, you know, everyone wants a day in court, everyone wants a trial, they're gonna exercise constitutional 00:19:47
rights, especially if you're looking at a big day in prison upon it, that will prosecution. And so RBTC, you know, makes you pay 00:19:54

And I talked to them when they're at their UH, savings practice point, UH, right after it happened or at least after they make 00:20:07
their outfit happening and continue to cancel them throughout the the process. But never did Help to UH prosecution is during the 00:20:15
trial where the motions are very high to that victim, very high for the prosecutor who's trying to get justice for that. That 00:20:23
makes them your RBCC really helps assist, umm talking to that, that victim people can do even more so. 00:20:30
Uh, and the prosecutor, we just focused on practice that business. But you know, there's another witnesses they have making sure 00:20:39

persistence we were able to get our submitted. Just currently was able to be able to do that on behalf of the. 00:42:02
UH Sheriff's Office two things that we there's only two things that we require to certify UH was that the county has not will not 00:42:10
reduce the amount of funds provided to the prosecutors office because of grant funds provided by Citizens Bill 22 and then we also 00:42:19
had to certify through Mr. Gibson some money UH for prosecutors officers would only be. 00:42:27
Statutory authorized purposes. And so all we have here today is a resolution. 00:42:36
It's been upgrading those applications. As I said, we had to have them submitted. We have application numbers that are pending. We 00:42:42
hope to hear back from them soon. 00:42:46
Pretty much being indicated this money is an automatic thing for counties that apply for it. So we would ask that the court 00:42:52
approval as of right now the Taylor Canada Criminal District Attorney's application that distributes that I submitted on behalf of 00:42:57
his office. 00:43:02
Not over nothing. Frank is not buying a job. I can tell you where we're headed, if you'd like to have that. 00:43:10
The the Commission may not know this and and and I'll be more than glad to tell you what my thoughts are. But we have been 00:43:18
overwhelmed and blessed with the one attorney in our office and where I would like to see a help and it would also help your 00:43:25
budget is that I believe is that if we do receive funds through the Federal District Attorney's office, I'm going to go out and 00:43:33
sponsor an application. 00:43:41
For a CPS attorney that handles appellate. 00:43:50
Authorization and services that will help. Uh, a fellow of your breath, Lindsay, who is totally under the water and I don't know 00:43:55
how he ends up with his work right now, but about? 00:44:01
40% of his work is a pellet work with Child Protective Services. 00:44:09
So what I'm seeing is probably going to be a person in my department of Family Protective Services that does their health work, 00:44:15
taking 40% of the burden off. Mr. Lindsey, as you know, you're coming out of towing and if you keep up with the media, we are. 00:44:25
Uh, pulling back with all those trials that we couldn't try during the code era, my trial lawyers and just crowded you, you keep 00:44:36
up with that because of the the camaraderie you have with some of my private lawyers. They're important a lot here like where they 00:44:43
could be passed. So that means that my teleport is going to increase. So I'm trying to do is use that money on that behalf, get a 00:44:50
CPS lawyer, that will not only help. 00:44:58
Diversion Overload the department Family Protective Services, but also do some public work. 00:45:06
And also I think that the back work the business program. 00:45:12
Is essential you saw. 00:45:18
A funds of regional vigilance processing or individuals willing to help for those individuals can only help in my department 00:45:21
damage capital services. So those back want to be part of the intro workers that work between my office and the outside agency, 00:45:30
such as regional crossing centers when they work through the. 00:45:39
Of those cases, they work with with. 00:45:48
Processing or another position. So that's what we're going to use our mind. 00:45:54
Thank you. Any questions for the criminal District Attorney how much money we talk about for your? 00:46:01
75,000 would be the maximum now. 00:46:09
We don't know what the grant is going to be. It's my belief that it's going to seem funded in full, but as as we've had 00:46:14
discussions with the auditor as well as Austin, I don't count anything until it's in the bank. 00:46:23
But, but is my belief that UH, through Austin's correspondence that they're going to fund it in in total, so they're taking the 00:46:33
full amount that's available. They're split in between search? No, no, they're they're they're in the mountain. I believe the 00:46:40
sheriff can speak to this, but I believe this amount is like 500,000 and it goes by by amount and population. But we do have the 00:46:47
ability to to separately apply. 00:46:54
County was uh in coordination with Sheriff's Office. We are filing our office. 00:47:01
Thank you. Any other questions for Mr. Hicks? 00:47:10
Thank you thank you for staying with me. I I will handle the portion for the Sheriff's Office so just under the statute attorney 00:47:14
or visit during can apply on their behalf but as far as sheriff's offices go councils office go if we were the council grant the 00:47:21
county judge has to apply for those. 00:47:27
And so. 00:47:35
I would like a resolution. 00:47:37
Approving the application for $500,000 for the Sheriff's Office here in Harris County and. 00:47:40
What the uses could be for the Sheriff's Office is 35 people a minimum of salaries every $5000 in county share and then those 00:47:49
$45,000 for each step and you can make the motor vehicle stops and retains formative duties and $40,000 for each other and duties 00:47:56
including included state keeping the prisoners and security of the jail offering by county as. 00:48:03
Like y'all know, our salaries exceed those amounts. 00:48:10
But what the Sheriff's Office can offer to is higher digital Japanese and staff the Sheriff's Office and purchase vehicles, 00:48:17
firearms and safety equipment to the Sheriff's Office. And will it share Bishop address Anything I've missed but it's my 00:48:21
understanding. 00:48:26
That the Sheriff's Office here is taking that $500,000 is going to be buying a vehicle with firearms and safety equipment. Did you 00:48:31
have anything to add to that? No, Sir, that's correct. That's what we're looking at. 00:48:38
Working on the list. 00:48:46
Anticipating these funds. 00:48:49
A good chance that these funds will happen again next year. 00:48:53
Yes, everything from every class that I've been to for at least this year and next year, those funds are there and they they 00:48:56
assured us we're supposed to be there from this point forward. So we're just going to be in the initial funding process for the 00:49:02
state. 00:49:07
And uh, you know, technically the. 00:49:15
But I just one thing I didn't say this is this. This applies only to challenge. With populations of 300,000 or less, it's good to 00:49:52
try to equalize. 00:49:58
With the larger counties out there, so that's kind of new money each year and it's only one of those. 00:50:04
Uh, the money that is funding these brands is uh as I understand it is Corpus and and it's supposed to be an ongoing situation to 00:50:14
where it will be funded on an annual basis from now on. Now you know as well as I do now versus what happens to grant money, but 00:50:24
it's my understanding that the grants have been guaranteed for two years now. It's supposed to be a continual. 00:50:34
Crisis they're after, but uh, as the sharp enough discussed. 00:50:44
How many occasions? Uh, we hope that it will be ongoing in the future. We can't guarantee the Commission that that's going to 00:50:48
happen. When you start talking about hiring additional people and those kinds of things. We need to take money for that. 00:50:55
Because of exactly what she said, that begins to be a little bit of a concern that we don't build something of a structure that 00:51:03
then. 00:51:08
The financial purposes you got the lenders and then now the plan is going to have to look at. 00:51:13
Because what you have to do. 00:51:23
Is you have to hire an end of the book? I I do. I'm not here, but I sure need to join in because my dad has this conversation. 00:51:26
You're going to have to hire somebody with the understanding that they are a grant employee and we hope that that grant will 00:51:36
continue in the future. However, the Commission is is not salary that employee. They're not going to fund that salary and we're 00:51:44
with hope that that employee knows that we will pay them on that grant basis, but. 00:51:52
Perhaps sometimes go away and we'd have to make that known up front when we heard that or I'm going to make that minimum when I 00:52:02
hire that one Very cool that we have this opportunity is, you know, anything we can do to enhance or we're already doing. 00:52:09
Is going to be beneficial to the taxpayers. 00:52:18
Yeah, I'm appreciative. I'm just always a little concerned though, when we're dealing with saving money like this. 00:52:21
It comes to us at a time when the state got a lot of, a lot of money surplus that they're going out here and there and here and 00:52:29
there and start creating programs that just are not sustainable. 00:52:34
So I appreciate them. I love that idea a lot more than I do with my own unfunded management. 00:52:40
Any other questions for this attorney or the sheriff? Any more questions? I do. I do have one integration and I know the judge 00:52:50
mentioned it, but we're not leaving the constables out is the simple fact of the matter is that there is a good connection in the 00:52:56
law that can't do not. 00:53:02
Allow the constables to apply for a grant unless their primary duty is out there running tickets and servicing the streets. And I 00:53:08
don't know if we have any constables office that has that primary charge for New church, Not that I'm aware of. 00:53:18
How? How We love our constables to be able to get their share of this too. But at this point in time we don't have that option and 00:53:28
I do. It's my understanding there is one constable who insists with. 00:53:34
Umm for mixed stocks routinely. Uh but his salary is already above umm. The the the threshold is also to your point about traffic 00:53:42
stops and also history folks up to a salary level and get their. 00:53:50
That's correct. Any other discussion or questions? 00:53:58
Alright. Thank you all very much. All right. Any motions? 00:54:02
Frank, are these these? 00:54:07
Resolutions. Are they together or should there be separate motions? 00:54:11
Separate motions and something like that. They even protected numbers like 1415 for the years. If you do a separate, that'll be 00:54:15
good. 00:54:19
Just based on that information for our attorney, I'll move to approve the application for Senate Bill 22. Rural Law Enforcement 00:54:25
Transport Sheriff's Office have been presented by our attorneys and Sheriff official. 00:54:30

Yes, I will judge UH. We received a request on January 7th. They would tell Tom and they're represented. 00:56:29
For a fiber optic construction permit to provide broadband Internet services for a new customer on County Road 175 and Precinct 4. 00:56:39
This area is. 00:56:46
Due South of Farmer Market 604 that 175 before the intersection of 177 and at this time there are no obstructions and shouldn't be 00:56:55
any problem ranking this request over Telcom for this area. 00:57:04
I have a map of where they're requesting that anyone like to see this area. 00:57:14
You, you say, Randy, you look at it. OK, so Sarah, no switch at this time. I would move that we grant approval of the railway 00:57:21
application to Telecom 4 or fiber optic construction for the provision of broadband services and Internet services on County Road 00:57:29
175. 00:57:37

Good morning guys. They have the RFP 242024501, Bryson Medical Services. We will have a process three times in the local paper and 00:58:39
also on our website of our website. 00:58:50
February 4th, November 11th. 00:59:02
We will not put this up today and that's what we do back in my office on February 22nd at 10:00 AM and we'll open those. 00:59:08
After you come there at that time. 00:59:19
Questions if there are any on on this proposal we do on February as well. 00:59:22
Post it back to our website. 00:59:29
Contracts will be for an initial term of one year with five extensions, extensions of one year each above 5° to that extension. 00:59:37
This will start on October 1st of 2024. 00:59:52
Umm, some of the? 00:59:58
Specifications instead of you know guys. 01:00:03
All of that. 01:00:10
We are asking for specifically for lease. 01:00:12
Two full time ambulances county. 01:00:18
Things will be MIPU units. 01:00:23
Nobody. 2 emergency personnel. One which is an EMT. One is an EMT paramedic. 01:00:27
Contract, so we will hold into the standards of the. 01:00:48
Non-emergency. 01:00:57
We ask that they give us quarterly reports and that's about what the city thought that would be. 01:01:03
It says that and we'll return, we'll return that county will determine that criteria to be relevant. 01:01:12
Umm, And we'll put in a uh, supplemental before we're having time the final contract. 01:01:19
I think that's all I have. 01:01:26
It's been more than six years, am I correct? Well, the last time we went out was 2019, but that was that was not. 01:01:42
Before that I'm not aware of. Sometimes we've ever gone out. 01:01:52
It's always been a discretionary contract. 01:01:58
We had never gone out for Actual. 01:02:05
Discretionary connection. 01:02:15
Agreement goes back to when they had two vans, one based in Buffalo Gap and another one. 01:02:18
Umm, I don't know. I think I'm the only one here that remembers that agreement. 01:02:28
And I had a question about dispatch where it talks about. 01:02:35
That dispatch could be handled by the can be handled by your County Sheriff's Office, but we prefer that the entity provides 01:02:40
around dispatch. 01:02:44
I don't really think in the contract if you say can be handled by your character after the Tariff County Sheriff's Office. 01:02:50
In an agreement to be reached between that entity and the Sheriff's Office, uh, just to give them sheriff's and elect official. We 01:02:57
can't force that part into dispatch for A&T services that makes and service. Does that make sense? 01:03:04
If I think it'd be reached, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that. I think that your variable is. 01:03:14
And then I had a question and. 01:03:26
About, I think Commission will mention this as well. 01:03:31
Than to potentially get back to bus times from somebody and that happened at hand within the review process, whereas if we had a 01:04:07
contract clause. 01:04:11
That said, we want our fun time. The job gonna be dispatching from the Super, the ambulances are gonna be departing from a 01:04:14
situated location county. I think that's extra insurance for us. 01:04:20
Yeah, I looked at that. 01:04:27
I don't have a problem even like it is because response time is going to tell you whether the proximity relative to their calls 01:04:30
and if we have. 01:04:34
Emergency situations and they can't get there within 30 minutes. 01:04:40
Which is kind of like the window we're looking at. Umm, then I think that's something we would we would need to address somehow. 01:04:45
But umm, because my concern was too if we had a company in town responding all the way to ship or all the way to Bradshaw, some of 01:04:51
those places that that's that's a bit of drive. 01:04:58
Umm, but I think the thing we're gonna be basically looking regardless of where the ambulances are, 'cause you don't know, even 01:05:05
even if there are, even if they have a base out in the unincorporated part of the county and they respond, they're still going to 01:05:11
be looking at response things. I mean, if they're, if they're over here on the other side of the county and they've got to go all 01:05:17
the way to the ship, then that's going to be a longer response time. So I think I I would recommend that we stick with the 01:05:23
response plans as our. 01:05:30
Monitoring deal and not make a location. 01:05:36
Report any other thoughts, you're gonna have exceptions with our current providers, they have an ambulance that has delivered 01:05:40
someone to Hendrick North and then they get dispatched to Bradshaw. That's going to be outside that response perimeter, so. 01:05:49
And we're just gonna ask whoever are gonna be provider is or our current provider if we remove them, do the best they can with 01:06:00
them, the clock that they've got. And of course there's a golden hour for strokes and stuff like that too, so. 01:06:08
Let's just see what we've got out there and what responses we have on the bid applications and then if there's something that 01:06:18
jumps up, then we'll look at what we need to do to amend to get the best service for the people of Taylor County that we've got. 01:06:26
Umm hanging on disagree on that discovery reason about it. Yeah I think this is situation we need to be reasonable because people 01:06:34
that we serve we need to make sure we have the best possible service available and not 15 anybody special. Let's see what's out 01:06:45
there because it's been a while since we've gone out to bid for service. We may have very simple popcorn and we may find out that. 01:06:55
There may be a different flavor of butter popcorn we need to look at. 01:07:06
The uh, well, this guy can conclude that portion of the discussion. Is there anyone who wants it, in fact, that you be century 01:07:10
located? 01:07:16
OK, whatever thing I wanted to talk about. 01:07:25
Umm is in Philippines and I'm still looking into it and I don't know if the sheriff would be open to it, but in the trainers I 01:07:30
want your talk as well to routinely review these if possible. What the sheriff's want to do is I would like him to once we've 01:07:35
received this bid, I'd like to put the chairs to be able to have a look at those and kind of get his input on some of the funds 01:07:41
that scoring really some of the input just because. 01:07:47
Someone who handles emergency situations every day, they're familiar with ambulance service and familiar with firefighting and, 01:07:53
you know, Volunteer Fire chief, I'd like to, but Mr. Anderson, what are your thoughts of that? And of course we got to do. 01:08:01
With any of my bids or proposal items. 01:08:10
Hi, welcome. Umm a couple of different times and everything you know different expertise is some little things and evaluate things 01:08:13
and I certainly don't know everything about this bit more heads together. We just need to make that decision and that you know 01:08:21
subject to commissioner wants to sit together committee for us or actually I can choose. I would say we need at least one or maybe 01:08:29
two members of the fourth, you know again in this evaluation. 01:08:36
Uh, to help to help you with that. And then you know, maybe a couple of other pieces, no more than two numbers. And I would 01:08:45
volunteer, since I'm there at most of the bid openings from the Expo to the old Courthouse. I would like to be one of those put 01:08:52
out of our agree that the sheriff, since he is in an Emergency Management role wearing more than 1/2, he would be welcome to look 01:08:59
at. 01:09:07
The bid upgrades and then as we assess though also we do have a county emergency manager with Constable Bush but we we don't need 01:09:14
to have a whole lot of people because you know a channel is a Porsche design doctor meeting. 01:09:22
But, and I I do like Commissioner staff, where I like your idea of an appointment. I like for you to be on air. I like the idea of 01:09:32
beyond. There I would throw in Commissioner Burcham and then Sheriff points, though. 01:09:40
Are you willing to review this good and give input? Once we get those, OK, well. 01:09:48
I'll make a motion in terms of that committee, you know when we're ready, but do we have any, do we have any more discussion on 01:09:58
the bid specs viable, I've determined a long time ago. It depends on who the many are. So I think that. 01:10:07
I'm sure we've been in a meeting with the Bible. That's fine. 01:10:18
But, but I think we probably got good eyes going to be honest, so. 01:10:22
Commissioner Bertram, are you going to serve me? 01:10:28
Commissioner way it was difficult service, but let me do a little more stuff on that so we'll try to 15 or Andy Allen volunteer. 01:10:32
Scripture also says there is wisdom and Gray hair. 01:10:38
OK. I've done it now. I was just going to say, I mean I think that three members that you mentioned that we want to. 01:10:46
Use possibly Bush, Commissioner Sadler, Commissioner Merchant. 01:10:57
All right. And of course we're sitting there still looking at, I think we legally we can do it, but we'll make sure we can have 01:11:03
both. 01:11:07
Yes, we've always put together evaluation. 01:11:12
For you know. 01:11:20
There's not anymore discussion. I make a motion to approve the advertising and specifications of RFP2024-501. 01:11:22
International Services Astrogen Mr. Henderson and as far as that motion, I would move that we have a committee to review this test 01:11:31
once we get amended bids, once we get them in and to provide input and that committee being made-up of what you're interested in, 01:11:38
Commissioner Chattler, Commissioner Bertram, Sheriff Bishop and Hospital Bush. 01:11:44
Attractive Wimbledon 59. 01:11:51
Well, I'll end my motion that. 01:11:57
She and their sort of keep track what's being done or she and their voting members. 01:12:03
The committee will make a recommendation. 01:12:12
Of course she would be there, as she's been in the past to observe and evaluate. 01:12:16
She always is. 01:12:23
And I'm sorry, what did you, Mr. Anderson, when did you want to February 22nd? 01:12:32
At the 10:00 AM. 01:12:40
We have a motion for myself. 01:12:43
To approve the advertising specifications for RC2024-501 Emergency Medical Services after then by Mr. Henderson and for those days 01:12:51
to be due February 22nd, 2024 at 10:00 AM and committee Mr. Henderson, Commissioner Sattler, Commissioner Merchant, Sheriff Bishop 01:13:00
and Cosmic Bush along with the caliber being in the room be a review of session in making representation any discussion for the 01:13:08
course, this time one of the questions and once we get ready to post this for the invitation. 01:13:16
The bid we understand we have 3 entities that are interested in. 01:13:24
Pursuing this invitation if there are any others. 01:13:30
They need to contact your office after they see the specs on the website and you will respond to them through certified mail or 01:13:34
through. 01:13:40
Yeah, that's correct. Looking uploaded on our website, so they can expect to pull it straight off and then we have one of them 01:13:47
today. I will get it up there at least. 01:13:52
Thank you. 01:14:02
Any other discussion, I'm just pleasure doing a pretty good job position and we've all been given opportunity to get 01:14:03
clarification. 01:14:06

Would like to say a few words, but something I just have to say. I wrote this approximation, but something you can't really kind 00:19:22
of say. The word is, you know, the prosecutor I had to work with Y'all all the time in cases and you really just can't articulate, 00:19:28
especially in this approximation, how valuable garment you see is. 00:19:33
To UH income survivors, but also to UH prosecute because UH some of these cases, unfortunately, UH will drag on for a year, two 00:19:40
years, just because, you know, everyone wants a day in court, everyone wants a trial, they're gonna exercise constitutional 00:19:47
rights, especially if you're looking at a big day in prison upon it, that will prosecution. And so RBTC, you know, makes you pay 00:19:54
them very, very beginning. 00:20:00
And I talked to them when they're at their UH, savings practice point, UH, right after it happened or at least after they make 00:20:07
their outfit happening and continue to cancel them throughout the the process. But never did Help to UH prosecution is during the 00:20:15
trial where the motions are very high to that victim, very high for the prosecutor who's trying to get justice for that. That 00:20:23
makes them your RBCC really helps assist, umm talking to that, that victim people can do even more so. 00:20:30
Uh, and the prosecutor, we just focused on practice that business. But you know, there's another witnesses they have making sure 00:20:39

better person. I don't think that could be coming slide into that spot. So I commend the board for these selection. Yeah, you're 00:40:15
you're all going to do and make them job for it as well. 00:40:23
Any other questions? 00:40:31
Are you seeing that when we're on here, those all in favor at least the Commission of course appointing Jay Hall from appointment 00:40:34
to serve on the Appalachian Air Canada Municipal Board. Please indicate my diagnosis. Any opposed draft that motion passes by? 00:40:40
All right. We will move on to consider approval of application percent bill 2022, rural law enforcement grants for the Sheriff's 00:40:48
Office and District Attorney's Office and appropriate action. And I'm understanding all handle it for Sheriff's Office, but if you 00:40:53
want to. 00:40:59
Suggest 22 was passed by regular legislative session. 00:41:05
It authorizes the district attorney's offices and criminal district attorney's offices to file application. 00:41:13
For brands the size of our county that we requested the maximum which is $275,000. 00:41:19
For statutory purposes, such as increased salaries of the system, DA and investigator for Australian Pickup Assistance Coordinator 00:41:26
or Mr. Extended hire additional staff. 00:41:32
Uh, for the office. Uh, as needed. Uh, there is no money coming from the county. This is all coming from the governors office to 00:41:38
the controllers office. Uh, the statute requires the Sheriff's Office and the DA office filed an application by January 31st. They 00:41:46
had the application available beginning in January. There's some glitches with their program that through a little bit of 00:41:54
persistence we were able to get our submitted. Just currently was able to be able to do that on behalf of the. 00:42:02
UH Sheriff's Office two things that we there's only two things that we require to certify UH was that the county has not will not 00:42:10
reduce the amount of funds provided to the prosecutors office because of grant funds provided by Citizens Bill 22 and then we also 00:42:19
had to certify through Mr. Gibson some money UH for prosecutors officers would only be. 00:42:27
Statutory authorized purposes. And so all we have here today is a resolution. 00:42:36
It's been upgrading those applications. As I said, we had to have them submitted. We have application numbers that are pending. We 00:42:42
hope to hear back from them soon. 00:42:46
Pretty much being indicated this money is an automatic thing for counties that apply for it. So we would ask that the court 00:42:52
approval as of right now the Taylor Canada Criminal District Attorney's application that distributes that I submitted on behalf of 00:42:57
his office. 00:43:02
Not over nothing. Frank is not buying a job. I can tell you where we're headed, if you'd like to have that. 00:43:10
The the Commission may not know this and and and I'll be more than glad to tell you what my thoughts are. But we have been 00:43:18
overwhelmed and blessed with the one attorney in our office and where I would like to see a help and it would also help your 00:43:25
budget is that I believe is that if we do receive funds through the Federal District Attorney's office, I'm going to go out and 00:43:33
sponsor an application. 00:43:41
For a CPS attorney that handles appellate. 00:43:50
Authorization and services that will help. Uh, a fellow of your breath, Lindsay, who is totally under the water and I don't know 00:43:55
how he ends up with his work right now, but about? 00:44:01
40% of his work is a pellet work with Child Protective Services. 00:44:09
So what I'm seeing is probably going to be a person in my department of Family Protective Services that does their health work, 00:44:15
taking 40% of the burden off. Mr. Lindsey, as you know, you're coming out of towing and if you keep up with the media, we are. 00:44:25
Uh, pulling back with all those trials that we couldn't try during the code era, my trial lawyers and just crowded you, you keep 00:44:36
up with that because of the the camaraderie you have with some of my private lawyers. They're important a lot here like where they 00:44:43
could be passed. So that means that my teleport is going to increase. So I'm trying to do is use that money on that behalf, get a 00:44:50
CPS lawyer, that will not only help. 00:44:58
Diversion Overload the department Family Protective Services, but also do some public work. 00:45:06
And also I think that the back work the business program. 00:45:12
Is essential you saw. 00:45:18
A funds of regional vigilance processing or individuals willing to help for those individuals can only help in my department 00:45:21
damage capital services. So those back want to be part of the intro workers that work between my office and the outside agency, 00:45:30
such as regional crossing centers when they work through the. 00:45:39
Of those cases, they work with with. 00:45:48
Processing or another position. So that's what we're going to use our mind. 00:45:54
Thank you. Any questions for the criminal District Attorney how much money we talk about for your? 00:46:01
75,000 would be the maximum now. 00:46:09
We don't know what the grant is going to be. It's my belief that it's going to seem funded in full, but as as we've had 00:46:14
discussions with the auditor as well as Austin, I don't count anything until it's in the bank. 00:46:23
But, but is my belief that UH, through Austin's correspondence that they're going to fund it in in total, so they're taking the 00:46:33
full amount that's available. They're split in between search? No, no, they're they're they're in the mountain. I believe the 00:46:40
sheriff can speak to this, but I believe this amount is like 500,000 and it goes by by amount and population. But we do have the 00:46:47
ability to to separately apply. 00:46:54
County was uh in coordination with Sheriff's Office. We are filing our office. 00:47:01
Thank you. Any other questions for Mr. Hicks? 00:47:10
Thank you thank you for staying with me. I I will handle the portion for the Sheriff's Office so just under the statute attorney 00:47:14
or visit during can apply on their behalf but as far as sheriff's offices go councils office go if we were the council grant the 00:47:21
county judge has to apply for those. 00:47:27
And so. 00:47:35
I would like a resolution. 00:47:37
Approving the application for $500,000 for the Sheriff's Office here in Harris County and. 00:47:40
What the uses could be for the Sheriff's Office is 35 people a minimum of salaries every $5000 in county share and then those 00:47:49
$45,000 for each step and you can make the motor vehicle stops and retains formative duties and $40,000 for each other and duties 00:47:56
including included state keeping the prisoners and security of the jail offering by county as. 00:48:03
Like y'all know, our salaries exceed those amounts. 00:48:10
But what the Sheriff's Office can offer to is higher digital Japanese and staff the Sheriff's Office and purchase vehicles, 00:48:17
firearms and safety equipment to the Sheriff's Office. And will it share Bishop address Anything I've missed but it's my 00:48:21
understanding. 00:48:26
That the Sheriff's Office here is taking that $500,000 is going to be buying a vehicle with firearms and safety equipment. Did you 00:48:31
have anything to add to that? No, Sir, that's correct. That's what we're looking at. 00:48:38
Working on the list. 00:48:46
Anticipating these funds. 00:48:49
A good chance that these funds will happen again next year. 00:48:53
Yes, everything from every class that I've been to for at least this year and next year, those funds are there and they they 00:48:56
assured us we're supposed to be there from this point forward. So we're just going to be in the initial funding process for the 00:49:02
state. 00:49:07
And uh, you know, technically the. 00:49:15
But I just one thing I didn't say this is this. This applies only to challenge. With populations of 300,000 or less, it's good to 00:49:52
try to equalize. 00:49:58
With the larger counties out there, so that's kind of new money each year and it's only one of those. 00:50:04
Uh, the money that is funding these brands is uh as I understand it is Corpus and and it's supposed to be an ongoing situation to 00:50:14
where it will be funded on an annual basis from now on. Now you know as well as I do now versus what happens to grant money, but 00:50:24
it's my understanding that the grants have been guaranteed for two years now. It's supposed to be a continual. 00:50:34
Crisis they're after, but uh, as the sharp enough discussed. 00:50:44
How many occasions? Uh, we hope that it will be ongoing in the future. We can't guarantee the Commission that that's going to 00:50:48
happen. When you start talking about hiring additional people and those kinds of things. We need to take money for that. 00:50:55
Because of exactly what she said, that begins to be a little bit of a concern that we don't build something of a structure that 00:51:03
then. 00:51:08
The financial purposes you got the lenders and then now the plan is going to have to look at. 00:51:13
Because what you have to do. 00:51:23
Is you have to hire an end of the book? I I do. I'm not here, but I sure need to join in because my dad has this conversation. 00:51:26
You're going to have to hire somebody with the understanding that they are a grant employee and we hope that that grant will 00:51:36
continue in the future. However, the Commission is is not salary that employee. They're not going to fund that salary and we're 00:51:44
with hope that that employee knows that we will pay them on that grant basis, but. 00:51:52
Perhaps sometimes go away and we'd have to make that known up front when we heard that or I'm going to make that minimum when I 00:52:02
hire that one Very cool that we have this opportunity is, you know, anything we can do to enhance or we're already doing. 00:52:09
Is going to be beneficial to the taxpayers. 00:52:18
Yeah, I'm appreciative. I'm just always a little concerned though, when we're dealing with saving money like this. 00:52:21
It comes to us at a time when the state got a lot of, a lot of money surplus that they're going out here and there and here and 00:52:29
there and start creating programs that just are not sustainable. 00:52:34
So I appreciate them. I love that idea a lot more than I do with my own unfunded management. 00:52:40
Any other questions for this attorney or the sheriff? Any more questions? I do. I do have one integration and I know the judge 00:52:50
mentioned it, but we're not leaving the constables out is the simple fact of the matter is that there is a good connection in the 00:52:56
law that can't do not. 00:53:02
Allow the constables to apply for a grant unless their primary duty is out there running tickets and servicing the streets. And I 00:53:08
don't know if we have any constables office that has that primary charge for New church, Not that I'm aware of. 00:53:18
How? How We love our constables to be able to get their share of this too. But at this point in time we don't have that option and 00:53:28
I do. It's my understanding there is one constable who insists with. 00:53:34
Umm for mixed stocks routinely. Uh but his salary is already above umm. The the the threshold is also to your point about traffic 00:53:42
stops and also history folks up to a salary level and get their. 00:53:50
That's correct. Any other discussion or questions? 00:53:58
Alright. Thank you all very much. All right. Any motions? 00:54:02
Frank, are these these? 00:54:07
Resolutions. Are they together or should there be separate motions? 00:54:11
Separate motions and something like that. They even protected numbers like 1415 for the years. If you do a separate, that'll be 00:54:15
good. 00:54:19
Just based on that information for our attorney, I'll move to approve the application for Senate Bill 22. Rural Law Enforcement 00:54:25
Transport Sheriff's Office have been presented by our attorneys and Sheriff official. 00:54:30

For a fiber optic construction permit to provide broadband Internet services for a new customer on County Road 175 and Precinct 4. 00:56:39
This area is. 00:56:46
Due South of Farmer Market 604 that 175 before the intersection of 177 and at this time there are no obstructions and shouldn't be 00:56:55
any problem ranking this request over Telcom for this area. 00:57:04
I have a map of where they're requesting that anyone like to see this area. 00:57:14
You, you say, Randy, you look at it. OK, so Sarah, no switch at this time. I would move that we grant approval of the railway 00:57:21
application to Telecom 4 or fiber optic construction for the provision of broadband services and Internet services on County Road 00:57:29
175. 00:57:37

Good morning guys. They have the RFP 242024501, Bryson Medical Services. We will have a process three times in the local paper and 00:58:39
also on our website of our website. 00:58:50
February 4th, November 11th. 00:59:02
We will not put this up today and that's what we do back in my office on February 22nd at 10:00 AM and we'll open those. 00:59:08
After you come there at that time. 00:59:19
Questions if there are any on on this proposal we do on February as well. 00:59:22
Post it back to our website. 00:59:29
Contracts will be for an initial term of one year with five extensions, extensions of one year each above 5° to that extension. 00:59:37
This will start on October 1st of 2024. 00:59:52
Umm, some of the? 00:59:58
Specifications instead of you know guys. 01:00:03
All of that. 01:00:10
We are asking for specifically for lease. 01:00:12
Two full time ambulances county. 01:00:18
Things will be MIPU units. 01:00:23
Nobody. 2 emergency personnel. One which is an EMT. One is an EMT paramedic. 01:00:27
Contract, so we will hold into the standards of the. 01:00:48
Non-emergency. 01:00:57
We ask that they give us quarterly reports and that's about what the city thought that would be. 01:01:03
It says that and we'll return, we'll return that county will determine that criteria to be relevant. 01:01:12
Umm, And we'll put in a uh, supplemental before we're having time the final contract. 01:01:19
I think that's all I have. 01:01:26
It's been more than six years, am I correct? Well, the last time we went out was 2019, but that was that was not. 01:01:42
Before that I'm not aware of. Sometimes we've ever gone out. 01:01:52
It's always been a discretionary contract. 01:01:58
We had never gone out for Actual. 01:02:05
Discretionary connection. 01:02:15
Agreement goes back to when they had two vans, one based in Buffalo Gap and another one. 01:02:18
Umm, I don't know. I think I'm the only one here that remembers that agreement. 01:02:28
And I had a question about dispatch where it talks about. 01:02:35
That dispatch could be handled by the can be handled by your County Sheriff's Office, but we prefer that the entity provides 01:02:40
around dispatch. 01:02:44
I don't really think in the contract if you say can be handled by your character after the Tariff County Sheriff's Office. 01:02:50
In an agreement to be reached between that entity and the Sheriff's Office, uh, just to give them sheriff's and elect official. We 01:02:57
can't force that part into dispatch for A&T services that makes and service. Does that make sense? 01:03:04
If I think it'd be reached, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think that. I think that your variable is. 01:03:14
And then I had a question and. 01:03:26
About, I think Commission will mention this as well. 01:03:31
Than to potentially get back to bus times from somebody and that happened at hand within the review process, whereas if we had a 01:04:07
contract clause. 01:04:11
That said, we want our fun time. The job gonna be dispatching from the Super, the ambulances are gonna be departing from a 01:04:14
situated location county. I think that's extra insurance for us. 01:04:20
Yeah, I looked at that. 01:04:27
I don't have a problem even like it is because response time is going to tell you whether the proximity relative to their calls 01:04:30
and if we have. 01:04:34
Emergency situations and they can't get there within 30 minutes. 01:04:40
Which is kind of like the window we're looking at. Umm, then I think that's something we would we would need to address somehow. 01:04:45
But umm, because my concern was too if we had a company in town responding all the way to ship or all the way to Bradshaw, some of 01:04:51
those places that that's that's a bit of drive. 01:04:58
Umm, but I think the thing we're gonna be basically looking regardless of where the ambulances are, 'cause you don't know, even 01:05:05
even if there are, even if they have a base out in the unincorporated part of the county and they respond, they're still going to 01:05:11
be looking at response things. I mean, if they're, if they're over here on the other side of the county and they've got to go all 01:05:17
the way to the ship, then that's going to be a longer response time. So I think I I would recommend that we stick with the 01:05:23
response plans as our. 01:05:30
Monitoring deal and not make a location. 01:05:36
Report any other thoughts, you're gonna have exceptions with our current providers, they have an ambulance that has delivered 01:05:40
someone to Hendrick North and then they get dispatched to Bradshaw. That's going to be outside that response perimeter, so. 01:05:49
And we're just gonna ask whoever are gonna be provider is or our current provider if we remove them, do the best they can with 01:06:00
them, the clock that they've got. And of course there's a golden hour for strokes and stuff like that too, so. 01:06:08
Let's just see what we've got out there and what responses we have on the bid applications and then if there's something that 01:06:18
jumps up, then we'll look at what we need to do to amend to get the best service for the people of Taylor County that we've got. 01:06:26
Umm hanging on disagree on that discovery reason about it. Yeah I think this is situation we need to be reasonable because people 01:06:34
that we serve we need to make sure we have the best possible service available and not 15 anybody special. Let's see what's out 01:06:45
there because it's been a while since we've gone out to bid for service. We may have very simple popcorn and we may find out that. 01:06:55
There may be a different flavor of butter popcorn we need to look at. 01:07:06
The uh, well, this guy can conclude that portion of the discussion. Is there anyone who wants it, in fact, that you be century 01:07:10
located? 01:07:16
OK, whatever thing I wanted to talk about. 01:07:25
Umm is in Philippines and I'm still looking into it and I don't know if the sheriff would be open to it, but in the trainers I 01:07:30
want your talk as well to routinely review these if possible. What the sheriff's want to do is I would like him to once we've 01:07:35
received this bid, I'd like to put the chairs to be able to have a look at those and kind of get his input on some of the funds 01:07:41
that scoring really some of the input just because. 01:07:47
Someone who handles emergency situations every day, they're familiar with ambulance service and familiar with firefighting and, 01:07:53
you know, Volunteer Fire chief, I'd like to, but Mr. Anderson, what are your thoughts of that? And of course we got to do. 01:08:01
With any of my bids or proposal items. 01:08:10
Hi, welcome. Umm a couple of different times and everything you know different expertise is some little things and evaluate things 01:08:13
and I certainly don't know everything about this bit more heads together. We just need to make that decision and that you know 01:08:21
subject to commissioner wants to sit together committee for us or actually I can choose. I would say we need at least one or maybe 01:08:29
two members of the fourth, you know again in this evaluation. 01:08:36
Uh, to help to help you with that. And then you know, maybe a couple of other pieces, no more than two numbers. And I would 01:08:45
volunteer, since I'm there at most of the bid openings from the Expo to the old Courthouse. I would like to be one of those put 01:08:52
out of our agree that the sheriff, since he is in an Emergency Management role wearing more than 1/2, he would be welcome to look 01:08:59
at. 01:09:07
The bid upgrades and then as we assess though also we do have a county emergency manager with Constable Bush but we we don't need 01:09:14
to have a whole lot of people because you know a channel is a Porsche design doctor meeting. 01:09:22
But, and I I do like Commissioner staff, where I like your idea of an appointment. I like for you to be on air. I like the idea of 01:09:32
beyond. There I would throw in Commissioner Burcham and then Sheriff points, though. 01:09:40
Are you willing to review this good and give input? Once we get those, OK, well. 01:09:48
I'll make a motion in terms of that committee, you know when we're ready, but do we have any, do we have any more discussion on 01:09:58
the bid specs viable, I've determined a long time ago. It depends on who the many are. So I think that. 01:10:07
I'm sure we've been in a meeting with the Bible. That's fine. 01:10:18
But, but I think we probably got good eyes going to be honest, so. 01:10:22
Commissioner Bertram, are you going to serve me? 01:10:28
Commissioner way it was difficult service, but let me do a little more stuff on that so we'll try to 15 or Andy Allen volunteer. 01:10:32
Scripture also says there is wisdom and Gray hair. 01:10:38
OK. I've done it now. I was just going to say, I mean I think that three members that you mentioned that we want to. 01:10:46
Use possibly Bush, Commissioner Sadler, Commissioner Merchant. 01:10:57
All right. And of course we're sitting there still looking at, I think we legally we can do it, but we'll make sure we can have 01:11:03
both. 01:11:07
Yes, we've always put together evaluation. 01:11:12
For you know. 01:11:20
There's not anymore discussion. I make a motion to approve the advertising and specifications of RFP2024-501. 01:11:22
International Services Astrogen Mr. Henderson and as far as that motion, I would move that we have a committee to review this test 01:11:31
once we get amended bids, once we get them in and to provide input and that committee being made-up of what you're interested in, 01:11:38
Commissioner Chattler, Commissioner Bertram, Sheriff Bishop and Hospital Bush. 01:11:44
Attractive Wimbledon 59. 01:11:51
