Thank you. The next is the county administrator's report. Good evening, everyone. It's nice to see so many people joining us this evening that aren't county board supervisors, so welcome to all of our visitors. I have just a couple of things to go over. This evening is part of my report. I apologize. I'm still trying to get used to this double microphone thing. First, I want to start out by letting all of the county board supervisors know that the department's annual reports are completed and will be uploaded on the department's web pages in the next day or two. So I encourage you all to take a look at those reports and read them. They are a great summary of the accomplishments and initiatives from 2023, as well as the goals for 2024 for each of the departments. So if you have the opportunity, please take it to read those reports on each of the web pages. In addition to another announcement, I'm proud to report that once again our finance department received the certificate of achievement for excellence in financial reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association. This is based on the 2022 comprehensive financial report. And this is the highest form of recognition in government accounting. So kudos to all of the staff in the finance department as well as the finance committee for their oversight and commitment to excellence. Next, I'm going to touch on Resolution 26, which is in your packet and is up for adoption this evening. It's regarding purchasing land just off of Highway 42. As you'll see, it is up for adopting as amended from committee. And I wanted to give just a little bit of background on this. The parcel in question is adjacent to our north side highway shed. And the parcel that the highway shed is currently on is quite small and we are at capacity of our footprint there. And so we were exploring acquiring additional land. And originally we're proposing to purchase the 30 acres, the entire parcel. And after getting a purchase price from the owner and getting an appraisal, it wasn't feasible. And so instead we are pursuing purchasing three acres instead. And so that will meet the needs of the highway department and our anticipated future needs at that site. And so I just wanted to provide a little bit of background on why that is being amended. In addition, Ordinance 13, which is in your packet, it's quite a lengthy document. You'll see that that is proposing to amend chapters 61 through 65 of the county code. And those are all chapters related to the airport. The chapters in your packet are the red line version. So you can see all of the changes that are being proposed. Of significance, I want to point out that one of the amendments is proposing to change the name of the airport to the Sheboygan County Memorial International Airport. And that's recognizing that we have customs facilities there. As you know, we've had customs for quite some time now. But this action would be officially changing the name to incorporate the word international. In addition, some of the other changes are just cleaning up some inconsistencies within those chapters. They are further defining some of the terminology. And then also updating some of the references to state statutes. So a lot of cleanup there. Some examples include Matt Grenoble making his title consistent. Sometimes he was referenced as airport manager, other times airport superintendent. So we're just making that consistent throughout the different chapters. In addition, there's some cleanup to references, to maps that we have to have for airport regulations. So the vast majority of the redlining you see in that packet is just cleaning up. And then also, I finally wanted to draw to your attention. After further review, the transportation committee decided that it was best to keep our liability insurance requirements as is. So when these chapters were coming through the committees for amendment, it was contemplated to increase or excuse me, decrease the liability insurance. And the transportation committee ultimately decided that it was best to leave the insurance requirements as is. So you'll see that was highlighted on specifically if you're looking at your packet currently page 30, you'll see where that highlighting starts. And you'll see it went, it was at three million. It was proposed to lower it to one million. And now it's being put back at three million. So I just wanted to clarify why that might have been a little confusing on why the dollars were changing several times. So again, the chapters 61 through 65 related to the airport, a lot of cleanup. And I just wanted to draw to your attention that highlighted section that may have been a little confusing. And that is all I have for my report this evening. All right, with that, we'll move on to consideration of committee reports. Executive committee resolution number 25. Regarding approving units, access, storms, camera and safety equipment easement with the Village Velcar Lake, it is recommended to adopt. Supervisor Gehring. Thank you. Supervisor Gehring.
