Motion does carry. 3a is a presentation updating the 2013 United Way Dent County Campaign. Hello Kate. Hello. I wanted to just give a little update as we had done a presentation earlier. Requesting assistance and the Commissioner's Court had actually done a wonderful resolution for United Way. On the 3rd of September, Commissioner's Court had proclaimed September as live United Month, and we also did our kickoff at that time, sending out forms and information to all the offices. And I really wanted to thank all of those who have contributed in any way, whether they have been able to donate this year or if they have just been aware of United Way, promoted the idea of United Way and the services of United Way. Because that's really what Live United was meant to be. I do want to call on a couple of the different departments within the county, however, the health department had a one-day pay center event earlier in the summer. And just with this one-day event, they raised $5,203 in donations and pledges. And Denton County juvenile probation's one-day pay center event. They raised $3,457. So just between those two departments with their one day event, they raised over $8,500. Great. And that's just marvelous. Thank you, Dean. It was so marvelous that United Way of Denton County, when they held a reception for all participating companies and organizations, both the Health Department and Juvenile Approbation were presented with Platinum Pace Center Awards. And so that's wonderful awards that they received. In addition, the Health Department received the Pinnacle Award for increasing their campaign by over 33% from last year. So they have increased it that much and it was just a marvelous event and the both of those departments have just done really wonderful. Just so we can kind of put that into perspective. In 2011, Denton County Employees and Elected Officials contributed $9,489.56, and that was a really wonderful contributions. In 2012, they raised $18,137.70, almost double the amount from the year before. This year, as of October 16th, 72 staff and elected officials have pledged $14,345.50. We've had an additional $647 in one time cash donations. So our total for this year is $14,992.50. That's with less than 100 out of all of our Denton County employees, elected officials, and volunteers. And we just want to thank you so much. That's an amazing contribution and United Way is very pleased with that and can do so much with all those contributions. So thank you and I just want to say thank you. Appreciate it. They meet those dollars go a long way too. They really do. All right. Item 3B is approval resolution in support of Proposition 6 to amend the Constitution of the State of Texas providing for the creation of the State Water Implementation Fund for Texas. In the State Water Implementation Revenue Fund for Texas to assist in the financing of priority projects in the State Water Plan to ensure the availability of adequate water resources.

I'll move for approval Thank you motion by commissioner common second and by commissioner marchin. I'll in favor. Please say aye Aye opposed to need motion does carry Thank you, motion by commission comments. Seconded by commissioner Marchion. On favor, please say aye. Aye. Aye, opposed to nay. Motion does carry. 6A is approval of specifications for RFQ 08132211 for consulting services for development of a thoroughfare plan. Appointment of the valuation committee to include Beth Fleming, Bennett Hall, John Seprannick, Lori Thicklin and Clary Ansey. I'll move for approval. Thank you. We have a motion by Commissioner Coleman. Chair will second the motion. I have a comment. Your minutes will go ahead. I'm administrative. Since this is going to be a county wide, therefore a plan, I think precinct to administrative and precinct to administrative should be on this committee I don't know that's fine with me I don't know I defer to the interest of the purchasing agent that this is only for the selection of the firm not to do the thoroughfare plan Absolutely, I'm aware of that. Okay, you know this and I'm glad you brought that up because you know This is a this is something I wanted to do for a long time to have a thoroughfare plan. I think the last one we had done was in the 80s. And this allows us in the unincorporated areas to at least have a plan to reserve the right away for potential expansion. and 455 were planning to expand 455 but there was a resonance built recently in an area that's probably going to be expanded for that highway and I don't know if y'all have been out. I know it's near your place Mary but if you go between 35 and Boliver with all those twists and turns and ups and downs that is a road that is extremely dangerous and needs to be expanded but because we don't really have a thoroughfare plan, there's nobody knowing where the highways are going to go. And if you all remember, this was originally in the David Ding contract and then subsequent with the Polster contract, and then in 2009, it was taken out of that contract. But this is something we can do to plan for the future and make sure we reserve the right way. And I think it's something that we need to do. You know, if we fail, you know, well they say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. I don't think anybody, you know, you didn't what you're saying. Yeah, and I thank you for bringing that up. And something I thought for, I think I'm finally kind of got everybody to kind of push forward and admit it's a good idea. Yes, it is a good idea. It's a nice, good idea. The problem is if you're going to do the, if you're going to do just unincorporated areas that touches one in four, then know the entire, all four commissioners don't need to be involved. But if you're going to do the entire DIN County which does include all the commissioners, then all of us need to be involved. And that is my, and I would ask that you amend that motion to add my administrator and run marches and administrators. I mean, I don't. I remember from that. I mean, if you think the committee needs to, how big do you think the committee needs to be? Yeah, that's acceptable. That's not a problem. I don't have the problem. Too big. I'll even knock off John Ceprannick and let you put your person. Because to me, that's not the point. He, it's, well, I mean, it's not going off your person. My problem is I want to be inclusive of everyone. I agree. And I just want to be pragmatic. I just want to get the plan done. All right. Minder motion. I'll amend to include two other people. The administrators of each, or whoever, Ron and Bobby want to appoint. I'll amend the motion. I'm going to include that. I would assume you all want your administrators. So we're adding cherry grows and donkeys. All right. So an motion has been amended and that's acceptable by. I would assume you all once you're administrative. The rallying chair grows in Donkern. All right, so motion has been amended and that's acceptable by the second. Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any further discussion? Any three. Six B is approval rejection of all proposals received for the construction of the Lewisville government center. This is RAP 0113218 McCone Bethlenning. We did receive proposals for our Lewisville project and as you know we bit it out as phase one and phase two. We received 10 general contractors who bid on the project. It was significantly over budget and at this time our project team is recommending that we reject all proposals and then go back out for just phase one. And then at that time once we know what the cost is for that one we will have a recommendation to CIP and commissioners court on funding sources to start phase two. It's a long project. It had a gap in between because we had to move people in between so there were a lot of assumptions that we feel the contractor's probably made that may have cost us a little bit extra money. We think this approach will assist us in saving some funds. Okay. Do we have a motion? I'm approval. and saving some funds. Okay. Do we have a motion? I'm approval. Motion by Commissioner Mitchell, seconded by Commissioner Ease. If further questions or comments? You're now in favor, please say aye. Aye. Opposed, Cine? Motion does carry. Members, I want to jump over to item 13A, consideration of some people's time here. 13A is approved of the Interlocal Agreement between Denton County and North Texas TOLA Authority to implement the SCAFLA program is provided by the Texas Transportation Code, Chapter and 302.111. That's of the Transportation Code. We have our tax assessor here with us this morning. Good morning. Are we ready to go? Good morning, Judge and commissioners. We are ready to go. Yes, we certainly are. I did want to recognize we do have Kerry Rogers and David Hoffman from NTTA here with us today in case you have any questions for them. Just to give you a very quick overview of the process that has gotten us to this point, we have been working with NTTA actually for probably over a year, but specifically since February. Bless you. Specifically since February, when we knew that the legislation for the toll remedy was probably going to go through, and once it did actually pass, we've been working very closely with N NTTA to work out the contractual deal basically to allow Ditton County to observe the scoff law. What we'll do is we will treat this scoff law at this time exactly the same as we do our municipalities. NTTA is going to contract with Department of Motor Vehicles. They will report the scoff law records directly to DMV. They will also send us a listing of those same scoff law records just for a backup. And we will observe them from the point that we receive those records actually on the motor vehicle records. At this time, and this will only be probably for a short amount of time, at this time, the scoff law notation for the TPE scoff laws will actually show up in the Denton County field. Once DMV actually has a field, which they expect to happen around March, April to, yeah March to April timeframe. Then that N T T a scoff law will actually show up in that specific field. But for right now it's going to look like a Dint and County scoff law. So if you have any questions or would like any information as far as all of the specifics that got us to this point, I'll be happy to answer any questions and then Carrie and David are here if they if you have any questions for them as well. Shell just to remind the general public you're going to be able to pay for this right at the computers located outside your office. That's exactly right. Once we have the contract executed and the payment made by NTTA to the county we will actually add the link to the NTTA payment authority. We'll add that link to our kiosk and locate in each one of our offices and then when a person comes in and we are unable to renew the registration for them, they can just simply step over to the kiosk and make that payment. If they are unable or if they do not want to use the kiosk, they will need to contact NTTAA directly. We've already been in communication with NTTAA as far as the different types of remedies that a person can receive with being able to pay those scuffle violations up to an including any type of a payment plan that the person could work out with NTTAA. As long as we have something that shows us that NTTA is good to go with that particular person, then we will go ahead and renew that registration. As an aside, we're also fixing to try and bring the county courts on to it. We're meeting Friday to discuss that. Indeed. In fact, we'll have a meeting on the 25th of kickoff meeting for the county scuffle law. Thank you, Michelle, for being willing to work with the NTTA to get this down. We appreciate you. Well, I appreciate that and we're happy to help. Unlike some other counties. It's not a big administrative burden on you. This or it is not a real big administrative burden on you. Is it? No, it is. Yeah. We're amazing. You can probably always they can move their office from C This or it is not a real big administrative burden on you is it? No, it is. Yeah, we are mazily. You can probably always they can move their office from Cone County to Denton. It's not that far. All right, I think we need a motion for approval and I will so move. Second. Okay.

Motion is carried. 12G is discussion of updating and revising the Denton County sexually oriented business ordinance. We have the sheriff here. Are there any changes that Joe would like to... This is not really on here for approval today. It's on here for discussion and any changes you might like to make and we'll take it up for approval next time. We thought you might want to make some changes to what's been addressed. Good morning, Sheriff. Good morning, Commissioner's Court, Judge. It's y'all all know my position on this. This is immoral and ethical, but we have to have it. And of course, Commissioner Mitchell and I are, you know, it's not biblical, but we have to have it, so we're open any type of questions you guys might have. Well, this proposed ordinance that we have here is not a whole lot different than what we've had for a number of years. It's been modified but just slightly. Right. I'm sorry. Put your microphone on and we're not. It's on a thousand feet. Is that the modification just a thousand feet? That's one of them. Yes, sir. And the question of who is going to enforce it. Was that answered? That'll be us. I'm sorry. The question of who is going to enforce it. Was that answered? That'll be us. I do any changes? Was it the approval? Previously it went through the fire marshal. It's been changed to go through the sheriff's office. That's what's being suggested here. Yes, years ago the sheriff was not interested in taking part in that. So whether Jody wanted to or not that responsibility was given to that office. So with this it would change to the Sheriff's Department. What I didn't like is that the initial application is still through the commissioners court. Well, that's why this is on here for discussion. I would like to, what I thought, I can't remember if it was either Commissioner Mitchell or Commissioner Mershant who I talked about it. I thought we would probably prefer to have it initially through the Sheriff's Department and then if whoever it was disagreed with his opinion they could appeal to us as opposed to making the initial application with the recommendation of the sheriff. Not a problem. Not a problem with him. Okay that's fine with me. Those changes made for you guys next week. Then if for whatever reason you decide to turn them if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the comments. I don't know if you can see the to discuss on this issue. We'll have civil division put what we've just discussed in the legal format and put it on the agenda next week for approval. That's okay with everybody. Anything else, Sheriff? No, ma'am. We'll take care of it. Okay. Thank you. I appreciate it. Thank you. So the no formal action on that item today. 13B is approval of one request from the access group to film a television commercial on the first floor of the court has on the square on November 9, 2013 from 8 30 a.m. until 2 p.m. to commission's court setting the fees to do from access group for filming a television commercial on county property as per filming policy and three permission for the dem kind of judge to sign the location agreement and release of a liability for filming from the access group and that's it discussion questions I'm moving for approval second are they looking for talent are you volunteer not around here? How did I know that was coming And not looking for singing talent. I don't blame it. Oh, no Kate does anything you need to add Thank you for approving that we just need to have you set the fee currently It I have a thousand dollar check because that is the per policy. We need to have that thousand dollar check at time of application. And because this is only a one day at a time when the building itself is not necessarily going to be open except if the museum chooses to open it on that day because it's a holiday weekend. So a thousand dollars is the minimum amount of fee. It's up to the court, though, to determine what the fee would be. It's for just how many days is it total? One day. One day. Pretty sure that $1,000 would never cost one day. Yeah. I would say not to exceed a thousand. That's fine. So do I accept the one that I'm going to make? You don't want to say not to exceed. What if they come in and do all kinds of major damage? And I mean, I'm not anticipating that it would. That's a building use field. That would be a damage. The liability is we've got insurance. And so the liability is covered through their insurance. It's a million I think it's a million dollar policy. I don't remember. I remember correctly. That's just to cover our expense for opening the building and facilities and people coming out. $1,000 is fine. I just need to have you all say yes. $1,000 is fine. It is part of the motion. Historically, isn't that what we've done? Okay, just to be consistent. Okay. We'll establish it at the $1,000 amount and that will be my motion. Is there a second to the motion? What are they? Seconded by Commissioner Marching. A few further questions. Okay. What are they filming? Do we know what's the nature of that? Yes, they're filming a commercial for a lawyer out of Shreveport. There you go, UB. Now, if you'd like to be in the background. They are going to film on the first floor and we have talked with the opposite history and culture to make sure that that's not going to interfere with any of the museum exhibits. I think it's great and I'm glad to know that they're coming from out of town. Well, he's mean. Yeah, is he holding a machine gun and dressing in a karate suit? That's our former DA's partner. I don't know our DA's former partner. All right, we have a motion in second. discussion questions hearing none all in favor please say aye I pose in a thank you Kate.

You have a motion for approval by Commissioner Coleman. I'll second the motion. John, do you need to add some information? One thing the text I'd asked us to do is to hand carry the check to the Dallas district so that they make sure that it gets programmed allocated to the right funds because if we send it in it'll go to the right away division in Austin and no telling where it'll go. Make sure it gets taken care of. You're going to hand carry a $3 million check? I'll carry it to $10 million check for you guys once. I have to sign for it. That's a lot. That's a lot of work. Yeah, that'd be fun. I need the treasures or proofs. That's why I'm asking. We have to ask the treasure, but to ensure that it is allocated exactly as we want it to be done, I respectfully request that the treasure do that. So I appreciate it.

Opposed to any motion does carry members before we go into executive session. A couple things here concerning future meetings. First of all, we need to talk in advance. I believe about Christmas and New Year's. Of course, thanksgiving. I didn't know if, uh, is everybody planning on being here the 26th? I do. Just making sure we, I'm sorry? November? Yes. Yes, I will be here. here okay so we don't have any quorum problems for Thanksgiving and we will meet on Tuesday the 26th now Christmas of course is the 25th which falls on a Wednesday and our county holiday is the prior day so that's the 24th and the Tuesdays. I'm assuming we're canceling court on the 24th. Right. Right. And New Year's falls on Wednesday. So I want to make sure that we get bills paid and stuff. How about if we meet on the 20th on Friday? We don't do any swearing in this year. We made on Friday the 20th to pay bills. Are people are going to be around? I will. I will be here on the 20th. I'm going to be gone for Christmas and New Year's. Okay. Okay. So we'll meet on the 20th and we can go ahead and have a full agenda then we don't really need to limit it and anything. And then yeah I was going to say the next court meeting will be the seventh but that's also a Texas transportation form in San Antonio on the seventh. I'll be gone as well for that. You'll be gone and I'm usually attend that also. So maybe we need to... What date is it start? It starts that Monday. Oh yeah, I will. Well, that's what I was gonna say. If we instead of meeting on the seventh, if we meet on the third of January Friday, I will be here. You will be here. Let me have a state renewing my vow. Check your social calendar, Ron. You should be here. You should be here. OK. So make note, we're going to cancel court on the seventh and instead meet on Friday the 3rd. I could do the 3rd. With the holidays and the conference going on, I thought we needed to talk about this well in advance to make sure in vent. Okay? Everybody straight on in? Now the other thing I wanted to tell you about is the third who can be here? Ron can be here. I can be here. Bobby can be here. Okay. I'm not going to commit yet. Okay. I'm not gonna commit. Yeah, I'm gonna commit. Okay. Okay, I'm gonna go to form. I'm gonna be gone to the week of the 30th, through the third. Okay, well the three of us will be here then. All right, um... Jim and I decided last weekend to go to Italy to see my son. And we are leaving this Friday. So no, no, no, no, it takes you that long just to get there. So anyway, we are leaving the 25th of October and I want to be back. Well, we actually leave Monday the 11th which puts us in here with the time change at night on the 12th so I'm sure I won't have my head on straight to at least some time late on the 13th. But anyway that means three Commissioner Court meetings that I'm going to be missing. So in being out of country, Hugh I'm going to ask missing. So in being out of country, Hugh, I'm going to ask you to be acting judge from the 25th to the 31st of October. I'm joking. Ron, I'm asking you to be acting judge from November 1st in November 7th. And Commissioner Mitchell, if you would be acting judge from a November the ninth through the 12th right and I'll think about you when I'm in Milan with a nice bottle of wine so wish you were here along with a nice bottle of wine. So wish you were here. You'll think about me too. All right. Moving right along, item 15 is executive session under Texas government code 551.0711A. Consultation with attorney in a closed meeting when the government allowed a sexy advice of its attorney about pending litigation or a settlement offering I'm not going to read the long cause number it's a Richard tacked versus Dan County, Texas in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Sherman Division and with that we're in executive session Commissioners, Quartis, we convene from executive session under item 15A. There will be no action today. And with that, we're adjourned. Everybody have a great day and see you in three weeks. See you in three weeks.
