Welcome. 06:22.000 --> 06:26.000 Appreciate you being here again. 06:26.000 --> 06:30.000 Okay. Do we have any citizens' comments? 06:30.000 --> 06:34.000 Any citizens' comments? 06:34.000 --> 06:37.000 If you approach the podium, 06:37.000 --> 06:40.000 state your name and address for the record. 06:40.000 --> 06:45.000 Good evening. My name is Donna Nicolasi and I live at 4610 Beverly Lane. 06:45.000 --> 06:49.000 I'm a lifelong resident of Kenosha and a retired paralegal. 06:49.000 --> 06:52.000 Could you speak closer into the microphone or move the microphone? Thank you. 06:52.000 --> 06:55.000 You want me to repeat myself? 06:55.000 --> 07:01.000 I would like everyone to recall mid-July of this year when most of the upper Midwest and great lakes, 07:01.000 --> 07:07.000 including Wisconsin, was covered with layers of smoke from the Minnesota and Canadian fires. 07:07.000 --> 07:12.000 Now, that was pollution that we could see and smell and taste. 07:12.000 --> 07:16.000 Everyone was affected and there wasn't anything we could do about it. 07:16.000 --> 07:23.000 What many, many might not realize is if data centers and the plants needed to power these centers 07:23.000 --> 07:28.000 are allowed to move forward, the pollutants from these power plants will be released 07:28.000 --> 07:33.000 into our environment and water, pollutants that we will be unable to detect, 07:33.000 --> 07:36.000 not until years from now when it's too late. 07:36.000 --> 07:44.000 I'm asking this board, please, do what you need to do to support pausing the construction of this project 07:44.000 --> 07:52.000 to allow for moratorium to be put into place until a viable plan for safe practices can be submitted 07:52.000 --> 07:57.000 for soon to the rules and regulations that protect our population and environment. 07:57.000 --> 08:02.000 And by the way, the word viable comes from land, meaning life. 08:02.000 --> 08:11.000 If these projects continue to move forward, I am concerned and afraid for the health and safety of everyone 08:11.000 --> 08:15.000 and for our land, our air, and our water. 08:15.000 --> 08:23.000 Also consider this, within the next 10 years, these data centers may well be obsolete 08:23.000 --> 08:30.000 and most likely reduced to the size of a garbage can, all at the expense of the loss of our farmlands 08:30.000 --> 08:33.000 and the contamination of our waters. 08:33.000 --> 08:41.000 I think you know that when you end a people's way of life, prepare for what comes next. 08:41.000 --> 08:45.000 You have heard the deep concerns of your neighbors and fellow citizens. 08:45.000 --> 08:49.000 The members of this board need also be concerned. 08:49.000 --> 08:55.000 The pollutants emitted from the power plants will affect you and your families as well. 08:55.000 --> 09:03.000 It's up to you and us to be strong enough to act and to continue caring about our future generations 09:03.000 --> 09:06.000 the same way our ancestors have done for us. 09:06.000 --> 09:10.000 Thank you. 09:10.000 --> 09:11.000 Thank you. 09:11.000 --> 09:19.000 Are there any more citizens comments? 09:19.000 --> 09:27.000 Good evening. My name is Kimberly Laska and I live at 2403 136th Ave, Kenosha. 09:27.000 --> 09:33.000 I'm here tonight to talk about something big, ugly, noisy, and wildly unpopular. 09:33.000 --> 09:39.000 I realize that could mean more than one thing, but I'm here to talk specifically about data centers 09:39.000 --> 09:45.000 and in particular the proposed Microsoft data center in Kenosha. 09:46.000 --> 09:49.000 I live in Bob and June CUNY's old house. 09:49.000 --> 09:51.000 It's just by Whisker. 09:51.000 --> 09:56.000 I'm still in town of Paris and Microsoft is now my new neighbor. 09:56.000 --> 10:01.000 In fact, their property is 10 feet out of my kitchen door. 10:01.000 --> 10:05.000 Microsoft purchased the land back in January of 2025. 10:05.000 --> 10:10.000 I discovered this while listening to a report on Wisconsin public radio. 10:10.000 --> 10:15.000 I didn't know much about large scale data centers that cold winter morning, 10:15.000 --> 10:18.000 but since then I've learned quite a lot. 10:18.000 --> 10:22.000 I'm still confused about some details of the deal with Microsoft Corporation. 10:22.000 --> 10:30.000 For some reason Microsoft was able to purchase the 5.3 acre parcel of land directly north of my property 10:30.000 --> 10:34.000 land that was zoned C2 Conservation Low Land. 10:34.000 --> 10:40.000 I'm also fuzzy on how the city rezoned the parcel on December 16, 2024, 10:40.000 --> 10:43.000 from egg to heavy manufacturing. 10:43.000 --> 10:47.000 When that section next to me was never egg to begin with. 10:47.000 --> 10:53.000 I'm also confused about the state of Wisconsin providing tax incentives to a corporation 10:53.000 --> 10:58.000 with a market cap of $3.71 trillion. 10:59.000 --> 11:04.000 Microsoft is the fourth largest company in the world based on that market cap. 11:04.000 --> 11:09.000 Do tech giants in the business of AI need handouts from our government? 11:09.000 --> 11:16.000 I would encourage the board to follow the town of Paris in adopting a one-year moratorium on data centers. 11:16.000 --> 11:20.000 It may be only symbolic, but it could send a message to other counties 11:20.000 --> 11:24.000 and the state that data centers and AI need regulation. 11:25.000 --> 11:27.000 Thank you for listening. 11:27.000 --> 11:29.000 I'll be sticking around later. 11:29.000 --> 11:33.000 I brought my knitting, so if anyone has any questions I'm happy to answer 11:33.000 --> 11:36.000 and show you my documenting evidence. 11:36.000 --> 11:37.000 Thanks. 11:37.000 --> 11:38.000 Thank you. 11:38.000 --> 11:47.000 Any other citizens' comments? 11:48.000 --> 11:54.000 Rachel Kirschner, 2613 136 Avenue, the town of Paris. 11:54.000 --> 11:56.000 Supervisors of the board. 11:56.000 --> 12:01.000 I am here today because of the proposed Microsoft data center on 136 Avenue. 12:01.000 --> 12:03.000 The same street I just said I lived on. 12:03.000 --> 12:08.000 It's a direct threat to the health, safety, and the piece of Kenosha County residents. 12:08.000 --> 12:10.000 I've lived in my home for 17 years. 12:10.000 --> 12:14.000 When I bought my home, I looked out at cornfields and Kmart's cheese castle. 12:15.000 --> 12:19.000 Since then, the city of Kenosha has annexed the land behind me for warehouses. 12:19.000 --> 12:21.000 I can accept the warehouses. 12:21.000 --> 12:23.000 I don't like them, but they're livable. 12:23.000 --> 12:25.000 But the data center crosses the line. 12:25.000 --> 12:29.000 I will be just five houses away from the massive data center. 12:29.000 --> 12:35.000 My mother's home of 40 years is less than a mile away on the northern side. 12:35.000 --> 12:37.000 That's not part of being a development zone. 12:37.000 --> 12:41.000 Paris is actually planning building more houses on 136 Avenue. 12:41.000 --> 12:43.000 We are not alone. 12:43.000 --> 12:50.000 We are over 50 Paris homes, not on city of Kenosha homes, but 136 Avenue, right next 12:50.000 --> 12:51.000 to the proposed fight. 12:51.000 --> 12:54.000 This will be devastating impact to our homes. 12:54.000 --> 12:57.000 A data center is not a warehouse. 12:57.000 --> 13:00.000 It is an environmental and public health crisis. 13:00.000 --> 13:03.000 First, consider the power and air quality. 13:03.000 --> 13:09.000 Data centers require so much electricity that energy is proposing a massive third gas plant 13:09.000 --> 13:10.000 in the town of Paris. 13:11.000 --> 13:16.000 According to the UW-Madison white paper, a plant of this scale can cause over a billion 13:16.000 --> 13:18.000 dollars in health care cost. 13:18.000 --> 13:22.000 Yet the city of Kenosha is bragging about their nine million dollars in tax money. 13:22.000 --> 13:24.000 A billion dollars in health care cost. 13:24.000 --> 13:30.000 The PSC docket says this plant is 100% for a single large customer at the data centers. 13:30.000 --> 13:36.000 I am terrified my young children will develop asthma or lung cancer just because a corporation 13:36.000 --> 13:39.000 needs power and the city of Kenosha's greed. 13:39.000 --> 13:45.000 The city claims this facility is safe and we use a closed loop system with minimal water. 13:45.000 --> 13:50.000 But to avoid water cooling, Microsoft will run massive air conditioning units 24-7. 13:50.000 --> 13:56.000 These cooling fans create a devastating type of pollution, infrasound or low frequency noise. 13:56.000 --> 14:02.000 You might not hear infrasound, but you feel it. 14:02.000 --> 14:07.000 In Mount Pleasant, presidents have filed a class action lawsuit against Microsoft over this 14:07.000 --> 14:08.000 ongoing infrasound. 14:08.000 --> 14:11.000 For some, they don't feel it. 14:11.000 --> 14:13.000 For me, it's completely debilitating. 14:13.000 --> 14:18.000 When I am near the Mount Pleasant site, my arms and legs tingle, my ears feel like they're 14:18.000 --> 14:21.000 about to burst and my brain goes foggy. 14:21.000 --> 14:27.000 I worry to affect drivers on I-94 and I can't imagine living so close to one running 24-7. 14:27.000 --> 14:29.000 You think I'm upset tonight? 14:29.000 --> 14:32.000 If approved, my home will become unbearable to live in. 14:32.000 --> 14:37.000 So I will just have to go to every council meeting and every county meeting to get away 14:37.000 --> 14:39.000 from it until it's turned off. 14:39.000 --> 14:43.000 I have spoken to the city of Kenosha's council like four times. 14:43.000 --> 14:46.000 I've talked to the Kenosha's mayor and to Microsoft. 14:46.000 --> 14:48.000 Microsoft claims they're good neighbors. 14:48.000 --> 14:50.000 So no need to bite me out. 14:50.000 --> 14:54.000 The truth is, good neighbors don't go around saying they're good neighbors. 14:54.000 --> 14:56.000 Server residents say otherwise. 14:56.000 --> 14:59.000 The town of Paris has no authority to stop this. 15:00.000 --> 15:02.000 I am running out of options. 15:02.000 --> 15:04.000 So I'm turning to you, the county. 15:04.000 --> 15:05.000 You have the power to act. 15:05.000 --> 15:11.000 Other counties like Dane, Mantua, Green, Winnebago, county have passed moratoriums. 15:11.000 --> 15:13.000 Kenosha should be next. 15:13.000 --> 15:15.000 I asked this board to stop up. 15:15.000 --> 15:18.000 Pass the county wide moratorium on data center developments. 15:18.000 --> 15:24.000 Extract and extract noise ordinance, specifically targeting infrasound and low frequency vibrations 15:24.000 --> 15:28.000 to protect our border from the Racine County's noise pollution. 15:28.000 --> 15:32.000 Intervene with the PSC to demand that any energy production 15:32.000 --> 15:36.000 or gas plants serving Racine County developments be built there. 15:36.000 --> 15:38.000 That don't like Kenosha County residents. 15:38.000 --> 15:40.000 We avoid Foxconn. 15:40.000 --> 15:42.000 Let's avoid Foxconn too. 15:42.000 --> 15:43.000 Mess. 15:43.000 --> 15:47.000 We want to build this monstrosity on county roads, our roads. 15:47.000 --> 15:51.000 No amount of tax money is worth the health of Kenosha County families. 15:51.000 --> 15:53.000 Please protect our homes and our health. 15:53.000 --> 15:54.000 Thank you. 15:54.000 --> 15:56.000 Do it for yourself. 15:56.000 --> 16:00.000 It's a joke if you think the city of Kenosha is going to stop two data centers. 16:00.000 --> 16:05.000 Before you know it, the city will prove 15 more, just like Mount Pleasant. 16:05.000 --> 16:10.000 And you will start getting letters from PSC wanting to put a gas plant in your backyard. 16:10.000 --> 16:16.000 Gas plants in Paris and Darian on Wallworth are run or proposed on high capacity wells. 16:16.000 --> 16:21.000 So don't think you're safe in Twin Lakes or Brighton, Bristol, Salem Lakes, Pleasant 16:21.000 --> 16:23.000 Prairie or Whelan. 16:23.000 --> 16:26.000 It starts with the solar farms and batteries and ends with gas plants. 16:26.000 --> 16:33.000 Whelan will get a gas plant next because we still don't have enough power for Mount Pleasant data centers. 16:33.000 --> 16:35.000 Not including the Kenosha data centers. 16:35.000 --> 16:37.000 You cared about the Whelan battery storage. 16:37.000 --> 16:41.000 Let's care about the core issue driving these needs, the data centers. 16:41.000 --> 16:48.000 Let's stop them until they figure out how to build them better without destroying our health, our land, our water, our lives. 16:48.000 --> 16:49.000 Thank you. 16:49.000 --> 16:53.000 Are there any more citizens' comments? 16:53.000 --> 16:55.000 Any more citizens' comments? 16:55.000 --> 16:57.000 See no more citizen comments. 16:57.000 --> 16:59.000 Citizen comments are closed. 17:05.000 --> 17:07.000 Announcement of the chair. 17:07.000 --> 17:09.000 I have a few announcements. 17:09.000 --> 17:16.000 I think what we're going to do first is we have two executive proclamations to give and call up Kerry. 17:16.000 --> 17:20.000 Fos and Samantha Kirkman are executive. 17:20.000 --> 17:24.000 Come on. 17:25.000 --> 17:26.000 Come on. 17:26.000 --> 17:28.000 There we go. 17:44.000 --> 17:46.000 Good evening chair. 17:46.000 --> 17:47.000 Good evening supervisors. 17:47.000 --> 17:52.000 I'm Kerry Fos and I'm the assistant director of human services for Kenosha County. 17:52.000 --> 17:59.000 And this evening, I'm really happy to share that this is national co-responder week. 17:59.000 --> 18:10.000 And this evening, we have Captain O'Lillah and Chief Salvage with Pleasant Prairie Police Department, as well as Tori Sheldon, their co-responder. 18:10.000 --> 18:17.000 Their co-response program has been operational since December of 2025. 18:17.000 --> 18:23.000 We also have Sheriff Zirner and Kristen Rabbidou, the co-responder for the Sheriff's Office. 18:23.000 --> 18:27.000 That program has been operational since March of 2025. 18:27.000 --> 18:32.000 And so this evening, I would like to turn over to the chair and the county executive to say a few words. 18:32.000 --> 18:37.000 I just want to say a couple words and then I'll read the proclamation. 18:37.000 --> 18:38.000 No. 18:38.000 --> 18:39.000 Okay. 18:39.000 --> 18:40.000 All right. 18:40.000 --> 18:41.000 Well, good evening everybody. 18:41.000 --> 18:46.000 Thank you so much for giving us a few moments tonight to recognize this important week. 18:46.000 --> 18:59.000 Obviously, we've spent a lot of time talking about our co-responders, our embedded social workers, both with Pleasant Prairie and with the Kenosha Sheriff's Office and our Human Services Department. 18:59.000 --> 19:05.000 And it's an important part of our public safety component here in Kenosha County. 19:05.000 --> 19:14.000 Because when our deputies and when our police officers are out on calls, many times there are families that are impacted that don't necessarily need law enforcement, 19:14.000 --> 19:16.000 but they need people to respond right away. 19:16.000 --> 19:21.000 And so we're really thankful that we have two social workers with us tonight. 19:21.000 --> 19:25.000 And I just, I want everybody to give them a big round of applause because they do a great job. 19:25.000 --> 19:38.000 I know I was made aware of a call earlier this summer where a young child was hit by a car in a grandparent's driveway. 19:39.000 --> 19:51.000 And I know that, again, first responders, you know, fire, police were on the scene right away, but the immediate call then went to Pleasant Prairie's embedded social worker. 19:51.000 --> 19:57.000 And I don't know if Christian responded or both of you responded, but I know that that scene was kind of chaotic. 19:57.000 --> 20:07.000 And you were that force that came in to help calm everybody's very heightened emotions going on in that very, very tragic scene. 20:07.000 --> 20:18.000 And so those are the types of calls that every day that they handle and they help our both sheriff deputies and police officers every day deliver the services for our residents. 20:18.000 --> 20:24.000 So I'm very, very thankful for their abilities and that they've taken on the challenge to be with us. 20:24.000 --> 20:28.000 So I have an executive proclamation tonight that I wanted to read. 20:29.000 --> 20:43.000 Whereas Kenosha County recognizes that individuals experience and mental health challenges, substance abuse, substance use disorders and other behavioral health crisis deserve compassionate, appropriate and effective responses. 20:43.000 --> 20:56.000 And whereas co-responder programs began to bring together law enforcement officers, behavioral health professional and other community partners to respond collaboratively during times of crisis. 20:56.000 --> 21:07.000 And whereas co-responders connect individuals and their families with the appropriate resources, treatment and ongoing support while promoting safety, dignity and respect. 21:07.000 --> 21:19.000 And whereas successful co-response partnerships strengthened the relationships between public safety agencies, health and human services providers and community organization and residents. 21:19.000 --> 21:34.000 And whereas Kenosha County is committed to the innovation approach that reduce unnecessary involvement of the criminal justice system, improve access to behavioral health services and promote positive outcomes for individuals in the community. 21:35.000 --> 21:51.000 And whereas co-responder week provides an opportunity to recognize the dedication of co-responder of all professionals who support this important work. 21:51.000 --> 22:09.000 And now, therefore, to be my known that Kenosha County Executive Samantha Kirkman and County Board Chairman Mark Nordigan do hereby proclaim September 13th through the 19th as co-responder week given on this day signed Samantha Kirkman and Mark Nordigan. 22:09.000 --> 22:32.000 Yeah, I'd like to thank you for this is such important work. I think that you can really take the edge off. You can work with people. They have a place someone to talk to knowing that it's just not, you know, someone in blue, which God bless them too. 22:32.000 --> 22:41.000 But we want to make sure that we really do point out important work that you folks do. And I very much appreciate it as a county does. Thank you. 22:50.000 --> 22:54.000 I didn't know I was speaking very briefly. I just would like to thank the ladies. 22:55.000 --> 23:03.000 Mrs. Spass put this together a long time ago with Chief Sullivan's predecessor. She's from Atlanta. They did a lot of work on it and got it prepared. 23:03.000 --> 23:12.000 They weren't able to move forward with it early enough. So, if I took office, Mrs. Spass came to me and said, this is what I want to do. And this is how we need to do it. 23:13.000 --> 23:21.000 And soon is pretty instrumental in that. And I appreciate the work of both of you do. And Kristen has been absolutely phenomenal with our, with our deputies in the sheriff's office. 23:21.000 --> 23:32.000 And I hear you quite the accolades about you as well, ma'am. So, regulations to the sheriff to, as you pray, PD. And I just want to thank everybody who's been involved in this program. And keep going. Thank you. 23:33.000 --> 23:56.000 Hi, there's not much more I think that I could say. The program is instrumental in just about everything that we do in the police department from dealing with people that are suffering from different illnesses or different episodes to sometimes just comforting victims. 23:56.000 --> 24:09.000 Tori's just done an amazing job since she's been working with us. And I can't even put into words the value of a program like this. So, thank you for recognizing them. 24:26.000 --> 24:29.000 Ladies, here first. 24:32.000 --> 24:33.000 You're the one to ask. 24:33.000 --> 24:34.000 Yeah. 24:35.000 --> 24:36.000 There you go. 24:37.000 --> 24:38.000 Alright. 24:57.000 --> 24:58.000 Okay. 24:58.000 --> 25:05.000 Okay. 25:05.000 --> 25:27.000 I've got more announcements. 25:28.000 --> 25:38.000 There is the, unless someone else wants to bring it up, but I'll bring it up, Kenosha County Italian Fest. I'm sorry, Kenosha Italian Fest. I think it's second annual. Anybody knows its second one. 25:38.000 --> 25:56.000 Anyways, it is second one starts Thursday or Friday 18, 19 20th. Yeah, should have wrote that down. And then this coming week, I guess it would be Sunday night for some, but Monday and Tuesday, the WCA annual conference is being held. 25:56.000 --> 26:09.000 I hope to see everyone there who can make it. And that's all I have. Any supervisor reports? Supervisor Gashte. 26:09.000 --> 26:16.000 Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just wanted to briefly update the board that this past week, the Joint Services Board did meet. 26:16.000 --> 26:28.000 We approved unanimously our budget for the upcoming year, the proposed budget and the county and the city and everybody, the finance teams all worked very well together. 26:28.000 --> 26:45.000 And so that was a very smooth process. We were able to give a increase to the wages similar to what the county and the city are doing, as well as continue benefits without any changes or reductions. 26:45.000 --> 26:54.000 And so we're thankful for that. As far as vacancies go, the Joint Services is doing very well, just a few in the telecommunication center. 26:54.000 --> 27:04.000 But overall, things are going well. The axon implementation is continuing during this transition. And overall, things are going well with Joint Services. 27:04.000 --> 27:13.000 So if you have any questions, please feel free to talk to me, Supervisor Morrissey, Executive Kirkman, and we'd be happy to answer your questions. Thank you. 27:14.000 --> 27:19.000 Thank you, Vice. Thank you, Supervisor Gashte. Supervisor Brown. 27:19.000 --> 27:29.000 Thanks. September is suicide prevention and awareness month. And College County has seen a recent increase in persons that have died by suicide. 27:29.000 --> 27:40.000 So, College County Behavioral Health Services will host two sessions of know the signs, ask the questions, and they will be led by our two co-responders. 27:40.000 --> 27:50.000 There are one-hour community trainings on suicide screening. One will be held on September 24th, 6 p.m. at the College County Center. 27:50.000 --> 27:57.000 And one will be held on September 29th at 6 p.m. at the Pleasant Prairie Police Department. 27:57.000 --> 28:08.000 The training is designed to help participants recognize warning signs of suicide risk and feel more confident asking direct, compassionate questions when someone may be struggling. 28:08.000 --> 28:27.000 During this training, participants will learn how to recognize common warning signs and risk factors, use severity scale, connect individuals with appropriate support and resources, build confidence when having conversations that can make a difference, and learn about harm reduction. 28:27.000 --> 28:37.000 And so I have some little charge case here. I guess I'm not really charge case. Cable gun lock for harm reduction, drug deactivation. 28:37.000 --> 28:44.000 These are all available and they'll be available at this training, but they're available through a public health or through payer health services, rather. 28:44.000 --> 28:49.000 So if you ever think you might need these, you should be using them. 28:49.000 --> 29:01.000 And then with going back to school, medication lock boxes, really, really, really important to send the kiddos away with those so that no one is grabbing their meds. 29:01.000 --> 29:09.000 Our county executive will be attending one of these trainings and I encourage each and every one of us to also attend. Thank you. 29:09.000 --> 29:17.000 Thank you, Supervisor Brown. Are there any other supervisor comments? Supervisor Geschke. 29:17.000 --> 29:26.000 I failed to mention Supervisor Poole as well as a resource. He's a relatively newer member of the Joint Services Board, but he'd also be able to answer your questions. Thank you. 29:26.000 --> 29:28.000 Supervisor Geschke. 29:28.000 --> 29:33.000 Seeing no other supervisor comments, supervisor comments are closed. 29:33.000 --> 29:44.000 Any executive appointments? 20.

34:05.000 --> 34:07.000 Any discussion? 34:07.000 --> 34:08.000 Okay. 34:08.000 --> 34:12.000 I'm going to hand a gavel over to Vice Chair Frankl. 34:12.000 --> 34:19.000 I do want to address a couple of things. 34:20.000 --> 34:31.000 24, 26, 2022, and 18 to 20 sessions, there were 100% of the Supervisors that were on those committees 34:31.000 --> 34:39.000 were all, I'll say, Eastern, as I think Supervisor Noodle has pointed out. 34:40.000 --> 34:47.000 I'm sorry, 24 and 18 to 20, there was 100% from the East Side on Human Services. 34:47.000 --> 34:56.000 100% on 18 session of 2018 to 2020 on Judiciary and Law. 34:56.000 --> 34:59.000 So it's been pointed out. 34:59.000 --> 35:05.000 I know you're talking about the individual committees, but that also reduced a lot of members, 35:05.000 --> 35:11.080 five members to individual committees, seven members, committees that have been reduced 35:11.080 --> 35:12.800 to five member committees. 35:12.800 --> 35:19.760 So the Chairman has the authority to pick five or seven committees, and that's what we're 35:19.760 --> 35:21.920 talking about here. 35:21.920 --> 35:32.400 And both in the sessions from 2018 and 2020 and 2020 to 2022, there were five member committees, 35:32.400 --> 35:35.040 not all of them, but there were five member committees. 35:35.040 --> 35:45.880 And in the 2022 to 2024, that Chairman had seven member committees, and then in 2023 reduced 35:45.880 --> 35:47.480 one of the committees down to five. 35:47.480 --> 35:53.000 So the Chairman has the authority to do that, and that's simply what we're talking about 35:53.000 --> 35:54.000 here. 35:54.000 --> 35:56.000 I do agree with Supervisor Noodle. 35:56.000 --> 36:01.480 If you are for the resolution and you're going to vote for it and it passes, then we 36:01.480 --> 36:02.480 will deal. 36:02.480 --> 36:03.480 Excuse me. 36:03.480 --> 36:04.480 We will deal with that. 36:04.480 --> 36:09.320 I will make the committees seven, and if it doesn't, they'll stay how they are. 36:09.320 --> 36:11.520 So I just wanted to bring that up. 36:11.520 --> 36:12.520 These are facts. 36:12.520 --> 36:18.200 They are from the information I've gotten both from Court Council and from the Clerk's 36:18.200 --> 36:19.200 Office. 36:19.200 --> 36:27.800 So I'll also bring up that the Chair and Vice Chair positions and the current how it stands 36:27.800 --> 36:32.000 out for the Chairman are from the East and for the Vice Chairman are from the East and 36:32.000 --> 36:33.600 Tour from the West Tour. 36:33.600 --> 36:39.160 So there was a lot of thought put in to spread things around and make sure that there isn't 36:39.160 --> 36:43.800 any, there isn't one for instance, the West is carrying everything. 36:43.800 --> 36:49.080 Like we saw on the Finance Administration, Human Services, Justice, Judiciary and Law 36:49.080 --> 36:54.280 and Legislative Committees, which were very heavily weighted to the East, and that happened 36:54.280 --> 36:55.280 throughout. 36:55.360 --> 37:02.280 I do believe that I will, I know I'll be voting against this resolution and I'll leave it 37:02.280 --> 37:05.200 up to everyone else to decide how they're going to vote to. 37:05.200 --> 37:06.200 Thank you. 37:06.200 --> 37:07.200 I'm done. 37:07.200 --> 37:08.200 You want to answer? 37:08.200 --> 37:09.200 Go ahead. 37:09.200 --> 37:10.280 Thank you, Mr. Chair. 37:10.280 --> 37:30.920 It seems to me that there are two issues at play here that we need to consider. 37:30.920 --> 37:37.080 One is a procedural question in regard to the authority of the County Board Chair. 37:37.080 --> 37:42.800 The other is a substantive question having to do with the reasons why the Chair made 37:42.800 --> 37:46.680 the decision to reduce standing committees to five members. 37:46.680 --> 37:52.280 So as I see them as two separate issues at play, let me address the substantive issue 37:52.280 --> 37:54.080 first. 37:54.080 --> 37:59.880 I have to admit that I am sympathetic with Supervisor Nuto's position. 37:59.880 --> 38:06.680 Frankly, I think the County would be better served with seven member committees or better 38:06.680 --> 38:12.880 yet, requiring all supervisors to serve on at least two committees. 38:12.880 --> 38:20.280 To put it another way, I think the real issue is not how many members total are on standing 38:20.280 --> 38:26.760 committees, but rather how many committees should all supervisors actually serve on. 38:26.760 --> 38:32.680 Unfortunately, the ordinance change we are considering does not address this distinction. 38:33.680 --> 38:39.160 This would require additional language, explaining how and why this should be done, as well as 38:39.160 --> 38:41.880 the circumstances where exceptions could be made. 38:41.880 --> 38:47.520 For example, under what acceptable conditions can a supervisor serve on a third committee 38:47.520 --> 38:51.240 or only one committee for that matter? 38:51.240 --> 38:57.160 As to the procedural question, as per County Board rules, Chairman Nurdigian does have 38:57.160 --> 39:03.680 the authority to reduce the number of committee members to five, regardless of whether I agree 39:03.680 --> 39:07.280 or disagree with the stated reasons for doing so. 39:07.280 --> 39:14.040 Also, another concern I have is that if this ordinance change passes, it would be impractical 39:14.040 --> 39:18.680 and disruptive to reorganize committee assignments now almost five months into the new session. 39:18.680 --> 39:24.960 I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would be a bit challenging. 39:25.400 --> 39:31.600 In fact, the language of this ordinance might be received quite differently if the intent 39:31.600 --> 39:34.640 was to make the change for the next two-year session. 39:34.640 --> 39:39.720 Unfortunately, there is no timeline mentioned in the language. 39:39.720 --> 39:44.600 So with that in mind, I won't be supporting the ordinance change as written. 39:44.600 --> 39:47.600 Thank you, Mr. Chair. 39:47.600 --> 39:48.600 Thank you, Vice Chair. 39:48.600 --> 39:49.600 Let's see. 39:49.600 --> 39:50.600 Supervisor Gasky. 39:50.600 --> 39:51.600 Gasky. 39:51.600 --> 39:53.640 Thank you, Mr. Chair. 39:53.640 --> 39:58.160 There's three points that I want to bring up regarding this issue. 39:58.160 --> 40:03.560 One question is, should all committee chairs be serving on the Executive Committee? 40:03.560 --> 40:07.280 Yes, I think absolutely they should. 40:07.280 --> 40:14.200 The Committee chairs form almost like a cabinet or a sounding board for the chair. 40:14.200 --> 40:16.280 They're used for specific purposes. 40:16.280 --> 40:21.640 And so I think that it is a good idea to have all the committee chairs serve on the Executive Committee. 40:21.640 --> 40:27.160 The second question is, is the Executive Committee a standing committee or should it 40:27.160 --> 40:28.160 be? 40:28.160 --> 40:33.240 And just looking at past history, looking at past practice, I've been on the Executive 40:33.240 --> 40:36.880 Committee for four of my last eight years on the board. 40:36.880 --> 40:42.840 And really, we've only met a handful of times, as has been mentioned, historically speaking. 40:42.840 --> 40:49.360 If you look at the website, if you look at the calendar, this is not a regularly scheduled 40:49.360 --> 40:50.360 committee. 40:50.440 --> 40:55.800 Today, it meets on the third Tuesday of the month or the first Thursday of the month. 40:55.800 --> 40:58.920 It's not assigned a regular day or time. 40:58.920 --> 41:02.000 It's simply stated that it meets as needed. 41:02.000 --> 41:07.400 So the case clearly could be made that the Executive Committee is not a standing committee 41:07.400 --> 41:12.960 because I believe standing committees should be standing and have a place on the calendar. 41:12.960 --> 41:17.400 So that being said, I do think that all chairs should serve on this committee. 41:17.400 --> 41:22.320 I do think it's reasonable to consider the Executive Committee to just be as needed 41:22.320 --> 41:25.120 committee and not a standing committee. 41:25.120 --> 41:29.560 And then the third point I wanted to bring up really echoes what Supervisor, what Vice 41:29.560 --> 41:34.080 Chair Franco mentioned, the idea of committee sizes. 41:34.080 --> 41:40.960 And I think the case certainly could be made that, you know, it may be better to have people 41:40.960 --> 41:45.840 serving on more committees, the case certainly could be made that having many people serving 41:45.840 --> 41:50.800 in only one committee and other serving on three or four may not be the best way to 41:50.800 --> 41:54.120 organize things, that argument could be made. 41:54.120 --> 41:58.760 But I don't feel that tonight's issue, the one that's before us, is the best way to address 41:58.760 --> 41:59.760 that. 41:59.760 --> 42:05.080 So for those three reasons, I do not plan to support this change tonight. 42:05.080 --> 42:06.080 Thank you. 42:06.080 --> 42:10.680 Thank you, Supervisor Gesh. 42:10.680 --> 42:12.920 Thank you, Supervisor Geshti. 42:12.920 --> 42:14.920 Supervisor Pollack. 42:14.920 --> 42:16.160 Thank you, Mr. Chair. 42:16.160 --> 42:20.840 In light of Vice Chair Franco's comments and Supervisor Geshti's comments, I don't 42:20.840 --> 42:21.840 just say anything else. 42:21.840 --> 42:24.040 I yield back. 42:24.040 --> 42:25.880 Thank you, Supervisor Pollack. 42:25.880 --> 42:29.680 Any further discussion?
