Under New Business:
The County Engineer showed the committee a copy of the Floyd Township Bridge Agreement from Hanson Professional Services, Inc. for the design of said bridge which would cost $27,500.00. Smith informed the committee that he hadn’t had enough time to thoroughly review the agreement, but would in the near future. Discussion followed. The opinion of the committee was that the cost was extremely expensive, and if Hanson couldn’t lower the cost, the committee thought it would be a good idea to negotiate with another engineering firm. Smith said he would review IDOT’s consultant selection process to make sure the county follows the correct procedures. No motion made.

FINANCE COMMITTEE MEETING
November 13, 2008
The meeting was called to order by committee chairman Mike Pearson. Present were Dave Jenks, John Turnbull, Gary Heaton and County Board Chairman Bill Reichow.
PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR
Jeff Stanton, Stanton/Ingersoll Agency and a representative from Illinois Public Risk presented the committee with the workman’s compensation renewal. County Clerk Tina Conard noted that the Animal Control classification needs to be removed from the computation as that is a contracted position that we no longer pay workman’s compensation. The renewal comes in just under $85,000.
REPORT OF OFFICE HOLDERS
County Clerk Tina Conard reminded the committee that the board meeting has been changed next week to Thursday and there will be no minutes to approve as her office has not had the time to type them.
Supervisor of Assessments Janice Hamberg reported that she has received some new aerial photographs, the cell tower assessments are done, the 2009 owner occupied exemption are going up another $500 and she has received one application for the Conservation stewardship program.
Treasurer Nancy Clayton noted the balance as of today for county general is $176,064.04. She feels the final distribution will be between $118,000 to $120,000 and hopes to have it out by the end of next week. She asked for approval to make the final payment to the health department with the final distribution. Mr. Heaton moved to allow the treasurer to pay the final FY08 payment to the health department. Mr. Jenks seconded the motion and on voice vote motion carried.
County Board Chairman Reichow reported on a meeting that he will be attending next week and mentioned that Jim Hart has turned in his resignation as custodian but he will maintain the electrical and maintenance contracts.
Bills were approved and paid on a motion by Mr. Turnbull and seconded by Mr. Jenks.
With no further business the meeting adjourned on a motion by Mr. Turnbull and seconded by Mr. Heaton.
The committee then went into budget preparation. Some line items were discussed and the levy was set to be presented to the board next week.
TO THE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD:
YOUR COMMITTEE ON FINANCE HAS EXAMINED ALL CLAIMS PRESENTED, AND RECOMMENDS PAYMENT OF THE FOLLOWING; AND THAT THE COUNTY CLERK BE DIRECTED TO ISSUE ORDERS ON THE COUNTY TREASURER TO THE CLAIMANTS FOR THE AMOUNTS ALLOWED.

STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE
(Reports)
STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE
September 23, 2008
The meeting was called to order by appointed committee chairman Gary Heaton.
Mr. Heaton noted the reason for the creation of this committee was to come up with a plan if the public safety tax referendum passes and a plan if it fails.
Mr. Heaton opened the floor for ideas if the referendum fails. Some of the ideas presented were sale of property. Mrs. Starbuck explained the Building and Grounds committee decision not to sell the ROE building. A tele-communications tax, early retirement incentive for eligible employees, the solid waste contract, cutting a zoning co-administrator, county vehicles driven home by employees, taxing cell towers, raising building permits, permits on farm buildings, site inspection fees, WIEDP funding, impound vehicles, shortening courthouse hours, outfitter business fees.
Mr. Pearson gave some figures that he had summed up on shortening courthouse hours. The savings would be $23,086 for a one-half hour and $46,173 for an hour. These figures do not include office holders or janitor.
There was some discussion on the public safety sales tax.
After much discussion the following were assigned:
Janice Hamberg - taxing cell towers and courthouse hours for surrounding counties.
Mike Pearson - zoning permit fees (increasing fees, ag building fees and site inspection fees) and early retirement incentive
Gary Heaton - auto impound fees
Dave Jenks - solid waste contract
The discussion then went to “if” the tax passes. It was noted that funds won’t be seen until December 2009. Mr. Pearson noted that one deputy and one jailer for starters should be hired. The sheriff discussed the problems with not having enough jailers or deputies. The sheriff was asked to come up with some cost estimates. He noted that a new jailer could cost around $28,500 with training and uniform costs, but this figure did not include wage or personal benefits. A deputy with training, equipment and uniforms could run $60,000, again does not include wage or personal benefits. Sheriff Edwards also gave some call volume stats.
The next meeting was scheduled for September 30 at 6:00 P.M.
The meeting adjourned at 7:00 P.M.
STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE
September 30, 2008
The strategic planning meeting held their second meeting, called to order by appointed chairman Gary Heaton. The committee discussed some of the information from the previous meeting.
Mike Pearson reported on the early retirement incentive. IMRF provided a list of current employees that would be eligible for this program. The cost could be paid in a five to ten year time frame. Another ERI could not be offered again until this program was paid off. It was not calculated out what the savings would or would not be, but several of the officers noted that their eligible employees would probably not take advantage of the offer.
Dave Jenks spoke on the solid waste program. He reviewed the contract and also spoke to Hancock County and Henderson County. Mr. Jenks discussed some of the information he found. He noted that he thought this agreement could be broken. He read the paragraph in the contract.
Janice Hamberg discussed taxing cell towers. She believes there would be ten to be taxed and noted that this tax would only bring in about $667 to county general.
Mike Pearson discussed building permit fees. Building permit fees defined in the statutes to farmers is a no permit fee. Mr. Algren noted that a site inspection fee was not allowable.
Gary Heaton checked on an auto impound fee. The States Attorney said this fee would have to be a reasonable fee and probably would not amount to very much money for the county. He also checked on outfitter licenses. They probably have to be licensed through the state and not knowing how many were in the county, probably would not generate a lot of money.
Janice Hamberg gave the committee copies of a list of surrounding counties’ hours. Mr. Pearson had reported last week that there could be a $23,000 savings if the courthouse hours were cut by one-half hour.
Mrs. Hamberg asked about increasing the levy and holding a truth in taxation hearing. It was noted that county general is at it’s max rate.
Mr. Jenks noted the cost of employees driving county vehicles home and out of the county.
Expected revenues were discussed. Mr. Pearson asked the sheriff how he could cut $50,000 out of his budget. The sheriff responded by noting that prisoner medical costs can now be paid from the Arrestees Medical Fund.
There was discussion on cutting costs, cutting services, the public safety tax, equalized assessed values, borrowing funds, sale of county property.
If the public safety tax passes, how will it be spent? Put monies aside for a new jail or repairs to the current jail. Bolster the Sheriff’s department for services to the citizens. The sheriff discussed his needs.
It was decided not to meet for the scheduled meeting for next Tuesday.
The meeting adjourned.
Mr. Pearson made the motion to approve the foregoing minutes of the Strategic Planning Committee. Mr. Thompson seconded the motion and on voice vote the chair declared the motion carried.
Chairman Reichow will ask the Strategic Planning Committee chairman to develop a series of meetings to address the possibility of putting the public safety tax back on the ballot for the April Consolidated Election.
