And we.
Hello there.
All the way here.
Erickson here.
Hanson here.
All the way here.
Erickson here.
Hanson.
Here.
How.
Schwartz.
Peter.
Thomas.
John.
Here.
Francis.
Molly.
Here.
Walter.
There.
What?
The motion will be agenda.
I make that motion.
Motion by Karen.
Get it by Paul Waller.
Call of favor.
All right.
I approve the witness in January.
17th.
16th.
How much the motion?
Paul Waller the second.
And by the time it's over.
All right.
The same public permit.
And then the mediation.
I don't mind.
You let the be card.
I'll do it in my.
If we're working on.
Purchase cards instead of having the credit card.
So I'm.
In fact, with a couple of different.
That'll streamline everything.
And what have you and there is.
Catch back.
All right.
Thank you.
And I'll leave us well.
The words.
The automatic.
Thank you.
Committee.
Committee and Jeremy report.
We'll start with all dollars.
and the people like them,
why is he probably good?
Yeah, it's his name is Matthew Keith,
but everybody calls him Keith.
He calls right.
We already got him.
Got a couple calls on him already.
He did a great job.
He's a little bit dirty.
He likes doing this.
He's up there.
Really good.
That's it.
Jamie.
We have such committees right now
for all of the next three questions.
We got Bill.
My way is going to add a meeting on February 17th.
We discussed the item that will be
on the 11th,
and the career of the things from the source to it.
The government made purchasing cooperative
and assist college schools
into this gallery's purchase supply.
The highway is going to use it
to purchase new trucks.
We're going to save $1,000 a year,
or about $1,000.
We're going to do it again.
Also, we discussed
the purchaseing portable traffic lights,
which is a secret talk to the department.
Is that changing?
You're saying, right?
That's safer.
It's safer than having a plan out there.
It'll pay for itself a longer time.
We gave $30.00 a
dollar for that.
We can vote for the states.
Okay.
Thank you, Bill.
Right.
Land and water conservation
and the process of
conservation specialists.
We have 37 applicants
conducting eight interviews across a couple of days.
We're going through the opera process this week.
Conservation poster and speech contest.
We had one of the Iron County posters
received first place at the Northwest competition.
And they move on to the same competition
at the Wisconsin Land and Water Conservation Conference.
Next week,
submitted all into the year grant reports
and reimbursement requests for 2025.
Completed 2025 accomplishments report.
The committee reviewed lots of weeks
into the county board at this month's meeting.
And the native plan sales.
All right.
We got that.
The Memorial building.
We had our last eight hundred February night.
Got quite a few bookings coming up,
including type ways, I believe.
In the summers.
And we're tied on a fundraiser.
Possibly in April.
A bingle concert.
And we have a lot of other projects.
A couple of them.
Hopefully it's one of them.
A deck.
Help it back to the cover.
That's going to be.
I can't.
The can.
The can is.
So.
Our next meeting is.
Last night.
Therefore.
D.
That.
The boy.
So.
Writing.
The.
The summer.
Two others.
I.
I also put on a map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a sort of map on a

We're working on a 10-year plan for their engineering fair and rate model.
We had a conference for most of their meeting with them last month.
And that's the biggest opportunity we're going to have to do as far as runway.
I think that's got it.
Yeah, I'm a force.
We did not meet this month, but the news on the Stubbins front 264,216.
That's up.
36,526 from last year.
So rock in this water.
I don't know what's.
Thank you.
Have much.
The service of committee that do interviews for the ABRC information and assistance position,
other with one candidate.
So don't know if a position's been hired or not, but that was conducted then.
Two other things I just want to bring to the attention.
There was a resolution request from the county's association in regards to a transportation,
which is really transportation for roads, making sure roads and bridges and stuff,
but to make sure that we have continued funding for that.
They're requesting all counties to provide a resolution for that.
It was in this month's magazine.
So just so you're aware of that.
The other thing is that we have a 20-year county plan,
which was requested by one of our state senators.
And we.
It's like do like now to redo.
So it's something that we have to look into.
I thought that was.
I have.
For you.
Experience.
The comprehensive plan that we talk about something like.
I thought that that was something that's done on that.
So.
She's the one who would know.
I just want to do it.
Okay.
It is.
Very open.
You scored a lot.
Okay.
Anybody.
The extension.
Did that meet?
The only other meetings during the month for one building and.
Law enforcement.
Thank you.
One.
And.
Let me ask you.
You.
Disganted with jail bargaining.
You sent them.
Our.
Data.
Or Call.
I think we need to try to get a public opinion on this.
It's not that we're in this park.
It's been heard.
We got, Kurt.
Yes, finance that.
On Tuesday, we spent some time on the financials that we recommended for approval.
The resolution is 40, 59, 40, 60, and 40, 61.
We have a budget agenda.
Um, and then, um, we talked about these two reasons.
Call the manager.
So it's a new position.
Keep reports to the, to the board, but primarily to the county chair and.
And the finance chair.
Um, nice.
Two meetings with them.
We came up with eight things.
I'll just go over real quick.
That we would like to see.
Well, design and J was part of the conversation too.
So number one was finished.
Our key vision, which is kind of tracking software and highway.
Um, and it'll save can of our chair.
Yeah.
Kind of 15 or.
Hour a day.
Key.
And then all the time sheets and.
To keep it in there with the interval.
Maybe a little bit more.
Number two was the track.
Drinking and making recommendations to modernize our technology.
Um, I am trying to have it made significant improvements to the county's.
Key infrastructure in a number of years.
The three is processing proven.
We focused on one was, um, accountable.
The goal of entry down once was delivered.
I actually did see throughout the organization, and number two.
Let's look at payroll software that would help streamline processing payroll and then tracking
vacation, sitting on time.
Number 4 was to look at the high end buffer wage study and continue with that process when
we started that last year.
And then after that, again, the item that the meeting was spent 15 minutes talking about that.
And so they'll think that keep working on number 5 was the benefits study and whatever items
I get implemented that was recommended.
Number 6 was budgets and financial statements with the goal of eliminating the five material
weakness beginning to generate forecasts and and monthly accurate monthly financial statements.
Number 7 was the office administration.
You could have to continue to work with some others on that one.
But you want to keep pushing ahead on how that gets formalized and starts with waiting the job description for the account.
And then he is being the administrative coordinator and under 5919.
It's the duties assigned in the administrative coordinator room, which is pretty broad.
But the things like HR, the contracts, right?
Writing tests from the chairs and things like that.
So those are the things we've had.
Don't for them.
And that's what we've been talking about when we're going to have to talk about the game.
So that's all I have for.
Thank you for.
I heard you're right.
We've been able to change.
She's been here six months before.
And that's set.
Seven months.
Oh, the assessor.
We consider strengths and we all be ordered.
We don't want to work.
We don't.
Come on.
I don't think I got it.
I told you last month Claire no longer come to be so comfortable doing the taxes.
That was starting to interfere with the human treasure.
I asked Eric in the forestry.
We took on the position and he looked at it.
Dr. Clara.
A meal, a back to me.
Said you would give it a try.
So the next month, or maybe two, then.
his hair will take it over him and deals with GIS,
what we do with it.
But part of the deal is he's going to take it on.
He's going to try it.
If it takes up too much air, it's time
because he's going to track it.
That's a good thing.
If he does, he keeps doing it.
That's great.
Find his partner.
If it's too much time, he's at least rolled off
as a board, because he's going to keep track
of the time he used on it.
If it's a part-time job or a part-time job
hopefully it's not a whole time job.
But he's willing to take it on.
And I thank him for that.
And then I can spend a lot of time
in the registrar's office trying to get that squared away.
We have somebody.
We just wait for the governor to apply them.
Today we call twice the governor's office.
The one would answer.
We call Danny Phillips at the BCA.
He's going to try to help us get
a little square in or a quieter.
We have to turn that down anyway.
He's not on us.
We'll see what happened in the next three days.
And then speaking of the registrar's fees,
the net's retirement.
I'd like to thank her for her service to the county.
It's been here since 1991.
And that has been a large part of the registered deed office.
It's becoming the deputy of the deed office.
She's held four different registrar's deed.
People do their jobs well.
For people of the county, she helped many of us
by making sure that we have the correct paperwork
to acquire a seller property.
So as she rides off into the sunset,
under a bond move on to where we sit, stand upon doing it.
I think this board and the board,
from the last 35 years, she was sure
after retirement in the job well done.
Thank you.
All right, I hear it.
OK.
RT Vision Implementation Update.
The forestry's been active for a month.
No issues unless Eric tells me there's some,
but I haven't heard of any.
So highway staff is in training with Casey.
They've started entering their time in RT Vision.
We're working with Wisconsin DOT on data connection
and integration into the CANS system.
Our integration will be with the next update of CANS.
We can expect it in three weeks.
They have to update CANS when they're in for us to go live.
IT update.
Next item on my list, Danny, continues
to work on the strategic plan and undergoing an email
transition from DOT org to DOT go.
I talked about this a little bit in the finance meeting.
We have to wait on a domain name from the Wisconsin
Department of Administration.
We're still waiting on that.
But our emails across the board, everybody's email
will change from a DOT org to a DOT go once
you get the new domain.
I think the new domain is going to be something very similar,
like ironcounty.pli.gov.
Instead of the Iron County, is it DOT UI or is it just WY?
Yeah.
So we're going to have a DOT probably.
That's the general.
I don't know why it's taking the DOA so long, Danny,
check it from the end of this week.
No response.
Payroll processing time card system update.
We have a small working group that's
working on the payroll system and the time card system.
We're looking at various options.
We met last week to document our needs, our goals,
some of the things we want.
I've got a couple of items, streamlining items
in the payroll processing, tracking all payroll items.
These have used for staff, tracking
reporting all time long for staff,
including vacation sick, personal holiday income,
tracking time for departmental use
across multiple departments.
We need 15 minute increments of the human services,
a review approval process for supervisors, managers,
and a chain.
And then obviously downloadable to a payroll and budget system
if it is not a single multifunction system.
We prefer obviously a single multifunction system.
We've got initial demos scheduled for tomorrow.
So we've got three demos tomorrow and a demo on Thursday.
And then Diane Schmick, he was on the team,
is off all the next week.
So then we've got another series of demos.
Do we have a 10, Tuesday to 10?
But yeah, it's kind of exciting.
There's some really nice systems out there.
I think it'll be a lot better than punching cards
and entering payroll as much as I had.
Let's see, last thing I have is a current brand,
continue to work, and I can work with them for the most part.
But we continue to focus on preparing for the audit.
We've got an audit in April.
That's about it.
Thank you.
7th resolution 3, 26, 40, 59, and 4th floor for highway.
Here's the process.
You can raise it.
How many demos should you raise for those guys here?
Or do I build a little bit about this, Casey?
It's a program run through the Minnesota government
of Minnesota.
It's for all 50 states.
It takes up the procurement process.
They go through and get contracts.
As of now, they have over 900 contracts with major manufacturers.
And it will streamline the system that we normally use now.
So.
Can you have a motion to send me a call in favor?
Hi.
I'm Sean.
Good afternoon.
It was listed 40, 46, 40, 60, the purchase.
Place number 911 operates in the crop system.
It involves you.
I don't know if I'm going to talk about this.
It's all I know is the part of the clock.
911 don't work.
That clock don't work.
It can screw it all up.
It's got to wreck everything.
It's not always $1 to replace it.
Stacy called me up.
I called the order it.
He's got some funds.
He doesn't have a wall.
I just want you to know.
It's somewhere.
We're going to have to talk to my buddy.
We've got to have all in favor.
Hi.
Hello.
Good afternoon.
We have a motion in 20, 26, 40, 60.
We wanted to contract with light berries and jewelry abstract.
The title searches for delinquent tax collection properties.
I'll make that motion.
What should I carry?
Second.
I'm going to buy rocks in.
You want to take this one?
Sure.
So we've got 85.
Properties that are.
The counties getting back to the tax lane.
Yes.
They're old.
So we need what's called letter report.
Deep forward searches.
The first thing you need to do.
Right.
So for 85.
Basically 85 searches.
And with us not having the registered deeds at the moment or retiring registered deeds without the capacity to do it.
We need to go to companies and outsourcing.
I talked to a few different companies.
Nightbearing was $100 per search.
So probably somewhere in the vicinity of 4 to 4,000 to 4,500 per night.
Very going abstract with $75 a search.
So we're going to be a little bit cheaper.
We're going to try to give them a larger number because of the pricing.
But neither company can do all of them in the timeframe.
So we have to split them up 40 to 45.
Yeah.
And actually when I talked to the companies, apparently a lot of counties outsource all of their X.
Letter report.
Deep forward searches to companies like these two.
Because if you're more efficient, maybe you would have pretty cheap costs.
You've got a motion to the second favor.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
So all right.
Okay.
All right.
Why are they?
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Allrav ahead.
This is cycling, because right now everything goes in the warm container for it to cycle
like separate aluminum cans.
How are we implementing this?
Because it's a big change.
I mean, it's basically making sure everything is in the right containers and people are going
to be having to keep an eye on all of this.
Well, we got that.
The guy we got early is on it.
Yes.
I mean, I'm sure if people got the word out anyway, but plastic in the garbage bag and
in the brown bag.
Right.
They weren't doing people that recycling ain't doing it on purpose.
So we got that under control.
He's watching it.
The guy in hers is pretty good.
Yeah, I've been good.
Where's your point?
Actually, there's a lot of detail associated with all of this.
I mean, are we going to provide people information on how to separate their stuff and make sure
it's clean?
Like a notification to the community.
I mean, an ordinance is a big deal.
We don't have an implementation plan yet.
We can send them up with one.
I think there should be an implementation plan.
All of the.
Nation.
What would I move toward?
People that are at the station.
We told them all.
We did it on the other.
You can do that.
I think I think it's I think.
Perfect.
You want that.
This need an implementation plan because this is a big deal.
I think the separation is what people do today for the most part.
I don't see where it stays if you have to separate each leg.
Yeah, I think it's separation of recyclable materials relative to the least.
Yeah.
I think that's what it's.
I'm not supposed to be getting wet and food product is supposed to be in there.
Nothing is cleaned in general.
So I think this is a bigger deal than just saying, hey, you guys figure it out.
I think this needs the implementation plan.
I'm recommending that.
We have.
We will be able to work.
I have a question.
A moment like to the talent.
Have to change how they're collecting recyclable.
Sit right down.
Big bit.
Yeah.
Exactly.
We've had to.
Got a couple of different big bits.
Everything, including cardboard, paper.
Glass.
Ten cans.
Everything is in one in all the containers.
There is nothing separate about those at all.
I don't, I don't, I don't read the same way.
So, so what I do today is as a recycler.
And I take everything that, that would be in 13.1 dash one dash 14 preparation of collection of cycle materials.
It says, except for.
But it says aluminum containers by metal containers.
That's, that's all shall not be placed in a plastic bag.
But that's all the stuff in the cycle today.
It's all it all goes into one.
It doesn't say I have to take my lumen separated from my bimetal separated from my corrugated paper.
It just simply says they have to be separated from like lead acid batteries.
Which I mean, I wouldn't recycle a lead acid battery today.
I think this isn't as big of a change.
Maybe again, maybe, and if.
We want to lay out a plan to ensure that it's properly, I'd be happy to work on it.
It really informed the consumers.
I mean, there's the polyethylene labeled by the resin code number two and number four.
You know, there's things that are number six, and number eight in all of that.
And are we separating those?
I'm putting those in the garbage and said, I think this is a bigger deal.
Yeah.
I just want to.
You want to get angry when you say it's good people and.
Yes.
That is the one that says safety.
Don't worry.
Tell me.
Tell me that stuff they don't take.
Yeah, you don't take that.
Bad people.
Oil don't want to hear it right.
You know, we have a bunch of ones here.
That says aluminum has to be separated.
Yeah.
Curated paper and from glass containers.
Isn't that saying that it's separated from post consumer waste?
So they should take this out of your trash.
Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
Right.
That's what I read too.
So this is just be safe.
Don't dump your trash in with your recycling.
Okay.
But I need to be able to accept.
Yeah.
Okay.
Does it mean the town has to have.
Five separate.
No.
One for glass.
One for cans.
One for car.
Right.
It's just that.
It's a certification to make sure we're separating recyclables and trash.
Yeah.
Except.
Let us have batteries.
Maybe more straight.
It doesn't make sense.
Let us have battery.
Yeah.
That part of this is confusing.
Yeah.
We could strike those.
Yeah.
Well, some way.
I guess that's.
I can throw whatever I can say.
I can throw a case.
There's a record.
Yeah.
Are you saying there's one den in versa?
That's it.
Yeah.
You have a lot of those.
Everything goes in every bit.
So, I mean,
the cardboard, I guess.
No, they throw that in there.
No.
No, we said we'd want our.
Or have you been like that.
That was my thing.
Yeah.
The same thing,
the way.
Yeah.
We're going to see an out truck go in with the garbage anyway when he gets there.
So they say it was free, but I was going to say that.
Yeah.
It's 100% right.
But it isn't a change.
It's what you're saying.
This is just a thing on crap.
We're already putting up one.
Yeah.
Separate and free.
We just try to get through.
It says we don't take them.
1311 says a recyclable material.
Specified.
One.
I think it's supposed to be 13.
Which a variance has been granted by the Department of Natural Resources.
Yeah.
There's a few things that are supposed to try to notice until we really started diving into this.
I'm a bad idea to educate people.
I still agree.
I think it's a good idea just to have a better sign in.
Right.
To state resources.
We could create better signage and all of our recycling.
Be successful.
Yeah.
No less advanced.
Same old crap.
Take care of what you're doing.
Take that off.
Okay.
Yeah.
More time.
There's.
And Chris, we've got to work on the list.
Just a number.
Sorry.
Can we hit trouble with that?
Oh, yeah.
They'll align me.
Yeah.
I can't for some help.
I think it's specified that once the ADC and D led acid batteries, major appliances, waste
yard waste, aren't to be included.
Right.
And it should also waste tires.
Some recycling places probably famous.
We'll get that as well.
We'll just have an education and send out to our people and our things.
We're getting connected.
The waste budget.
I wonder if we should just.
Actually.
Okay.
I would.
That's my opinion.
I would see.
The data read.
But I.
You can talk about it.
Actually walk through the verbiage and make sure that it.
Okay.
That's exactly what we wanted to say because we have now that we've started talking about.
There's a few.
Awkward.
It's awkwardly worded.
It's also not clear.
What we're going to take into recycling and what should just be removed from.
It does.
And it clearly states what we separate from post consumer waste.
But I think a little more time should be spent reviewing and ensuring that before we pass the resolution with the new ordinance.
We ought to do a little more.
To be honest.
It's my opinion.
You need a motion to be able to.
I'll make the motion to be able to.
I'll call it.
I need to bring it back.
Next month.
Take it back in two months.
Yeah.
That's.
My mother.
I need a second.
I'm going to take care of it.
All in favor.
I got it.
Yeah.
So everybody has to bid.
A bit sheet in your packets.
It's got some green.
All this walk through kind of the bit sheet that Bill and I put together.
We received two bids.
One for merits.
As you can see, team clean is a monthly bid.
Maritz was a weekly.
So we can't want to compare apples to apples.
So what we put is we put everything under essentially an annual bid.
That's the comparative totals that you'll see under the second section.
The top section is the bid that was made by month for team clean by week for merits.
The items in green are what we decided would be based on the bid price and the effective.
For the community effective savings for us.
Team clean at 54,000 for the courthouse. You can see they also have $8,400 for highway forestry versus 10,000 for.
The 54,000 versus the 62 for merits.
And then the senior center at 3000 versus 10,400 for merits.
So merits bids for the lowest and the accepted bids that we went for for the health and $8,200 a piece.
Relative to the team clean bids of 13,200 for health and 6,600 for ADRC respect.
So in the additional service, you can see below if we need them.
I think since we have both companies, we can probably decide if we want carpet extraction.
We can go for either either.
In clean or merits, depending on how we want to do.
And that's fine.
And I suggest to me.
The job.
You're going to clean.
We're going to marry.
Three hundred years.
Yeah.
And the three that goes to team clean.
The ones in.
A little better.
A phone.
Four house highway four street and senior center.
As opposed to merits, which would be help.
Help building years.
Oh, shit.
We're going to go down.
Second.
So you're going to.
We're going to.
To.
Yeah.
So specifically for house.
That is it.
It's.
My rocks and.
Hello, baby.
Hi.
Hey, what you care.
Most of you need a motion to go to call section.
That's.
Right.
Have a motion.
Second.
Take care.
