 That was a four one like the call to order the Tuesday April 17th 2018 Sheboygan County Board of Supervisors. Are we certified in compliance with the open meeting law? Yes the agenda was posted on the 12th of April at 11 a.m. Thank You John. We will now have the presentation of the colors by the Sheboygan County Sheriff's Department Honor Guard. And the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance. Thank You Honor Guard. Invocation. Relationship to the chairman this prayer will be nonpartisan. Holy One. You are the hidden and the manifest. The source of all being and the bringer of peace. In this spring time of the year when snow still covers the land. As the days grow longer and the nights vanish more quickly we are grateful for the many blessings of the past and resolve to work for an even better future. Today we humbly ask you to enlighten any darkness in the hearts of those gathered here who have been entrusted with the grave responsibility of governing the people of Sheboygan County. May they resist any temptation to act out of selfish interests. May they seek the common good of the people of this beautiful county. Give them wisdom. They need to discern what is right and true. Give them the knowledge they need to enact policies which bring hope to the poor, the weak, and the vulnerable. Give them the understanding and goodwill they need to listen to one another in charity especially as they choose their leaders. On this April day when we are most aware of our temporal obligations may we not neglect the demands of the spirit. As they go about the business of the people may the members of this body commit themselves to listen to the better angels of their nature as they seek to do the will of the people. God of life may we not forget that our nation is still at war in far off lands. Keep safe those who have answered the call to serve their country. Hasten their return to home and family. With great sadness we graciously ask you to comfort the loved ones of those who have answered the call of duty and made the ultimate sacrifice in the defense of our nation and in the cause of liberty and justice. With the gratitude that can never equal their valor we honor the brave service of our fallen soldiers. And we pause now to commend them to you. Bless them with final peace and endless joy in the name of all that is holy we pray now and forever. Amen. Amen. Thank you Gary. It's going to cost me at least a dinner for sure. That's okay we're brothers that's how brothers are to each other. Okay roll call. There are 24 supervisors present. Thank you. Administration of the oaths of office. Judge Edward Stengel. Thank you. It's really my honor again to be here and to be able to participate in these proceedings. I've been coming into this building for a little over 40 years at this point. And many of you have served on the county board for almost that long. That was not meant to be anything to rock it. John said if I did this and I did a good job I could keep coming to the legislative breakfasts so I'm doing the very best I can. But it's really been my honor to be able to be a part of all this and to serve with you the citizens of Sheboygan County. And the part of that honor is to witness day in and day out the many great people that we have working for Sheboygan County who support the courts and who work in all the other capacities that support and provide for the citizens of Sheboygan. And certainly you people who have served on the county board and who will serve on the county board are a large part of that. I think Sheboygan County as I've gone around the state and talked to other judges is somewhat unique in the ongoing cooperative effort that we get at all levels of our government. And I think it is certainly a very important thing that we continue to work together and meet our goals in serving the citizens that have elected us to these positions. And I hope that we will continue to have all the support that we've had in the past. We owe a lot of our success to the cooperation and support of the people that we work with you with us and certainly the county board who has always supported us and the county administration. So with that is my pleasure to administer the oath of office. I'd like to have you stand. Please raise your right hand and when I indicate to please state your name. I trust each and every one of you know your name and you'll be able to insert it. And also when we get to the part where you indicate the district that you're representing. I and please state your name. Swear our firm that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the state of Wisconsin and the Constitution of the state of Wisconsin and will faithfully and partially discharge the duties of the office of county board supervisor district number to the best of my ability. So help me God and thank you very much for your service and the very best of luck. Thank you. Thank you judge. Next we have some introduction of department heads and introductory statements by the county administrator Adam. Thank you Mr. Chairman. Good evening. Good evening. It feels a little festive in the room tonight and as it should. What a tremendous evening. I want to really thank and welcome our guests and family members and it was a pleasure to meet Tom's brother and have him share some words as well as Judge Stangle to be here to give the oath and of course our sheriff's department always does such a wonderful job representing us through the honor guard. So thank you for that. Thank you Don Bruhler and Paul Gruber for stepping up and welcome to the Sheboygan County Board. Mike Oji also deserves a welcome back. Unfortunately he couldn't be here tonight. He had a conflict but we we welcome Mike Oji back and this afternoon we had the brief orientation with Paul and Don and I felt almost badly for them. We threw so much information at them in such a short period of time and I want to thank the county clerk and the corporation council, our IT director, our human resources director. We all got together and very quickly talked about rules and responsibilities, a very strong committee structure, the difference between resolutions and ordinances, Robert's rules of order, code of ethics, open beatings and public record laws, information technology and the extensive supervisor salary and per diem payments. Like any new job, it takes time. It takes time to get that experience and really to be good at what you do and I think Tom Wagner shared some really good advice as I've heard from a number of chair persons over the years. Don't be too hard on yourself. Take the time to listen and learn and lean on many of the very good people you are surrounded by. You know, Ed Stangle mentioned the experience of this county board. We have a number of highly experienced and respected county board supervisors and there's one on each side of you that no doubt would be willing to help you be successful. So please don't hesitate to reach out. And of course, this evening we're surrounded by our department heads and key management team and they as well are outstanding and ready to assist and do all we can to be successful. You know, we listen in this organization, we work together to problem solve and we deliver. This organization delivers Chairman Wagner and our executive committee, all of the liaison committees had a highly successful term the last couple of years and we have a lot ahead of us. But you are you are now part of an organization as you as you quickly may recall from this afternoon of 825 employees working with 19 departments administering $150 million budget over 207 programs and services. There is so much to learn in this organization. There are so many opportunities to problem solve. There are so many opportunities to help people indeed. And this organization has a track record of success. We're the eighth largest employer in Sheboygan County. People don't appreciate that unless you're part of this organization, following Kohler, Bemis, Sheboygan area school district, DMACS are gentle Aurora and Johnsonville Sausage. We certainly aren't striving to be number one. In fact, if you look at our staffing, we've gone from a high of about 1350 in 2003 to 825 today. We've had nearly a 40% reduction in our staffing. And that doesn't just happen. It occurs over time through thoughtful collaboration, streamlining, consolidating working together. I'm proud of our track record. I'm proud of this organization. And again, if you haven't been a part of it, if you're not part of the Sheboygan County family, it's tough to really fully appreciate the breadth and diversity of this organization. Quick snapshot, 19 departments, 19 departments administering $149 million budget, 48 million of property tax levy, the rest state, federal, private pay health and human services, $34 million operation over 40 programs administered there, the Sheriff's Department, $24 million operation, Transportation Department, $19 million operation and Rocky No Health Care Center, 13 million. Those are the big four comprised two thirds of our budgets alone. If those four aren't streamlining, gaining efficiencies, working in collaboration in the budget process, it's real difficult for the rest of the departments to make the difference up. The remaining departments building services, Clerk of Courts, Corporation Council, County Clerk, Court Commissioner, District Attorney, Finance, Human Resources, Information Technology, Medical Examiner, Planning and Conservation, Register and Deeds, Treasure Real Property Listing, University of Wisconsin Extension and Veteran Services. I can't imagine you being bored in this organization. There is so much going on, so many opportunities to make good things happen. It's complex. And really, as we've shared before, and I think as many of us lead by example, it comes down collaboration. We work together. The tone is set by the county board chair. It's set by our management team. It's set by each and every county board supervisor. We expect collaboration, helping one another be successful working together. Just some quick examples. And this was just during the last couple of years, just the last couple of years. We established the Amsterdam Dunes Wetland and Mitigation Bank and preservation area. Roger Distruty was chairman at the time. Tom Wagner was vice chairman at the time. Incredible accomplishment. We constructed a ring of fiber in partnership with the city and school district. We established an information technology disaster recovery system. We implemented through the courageous leadership of Chairman Wagner and everyone sitting in this room, the one half percent county sales tax to help maintain a safe and reliable transportation system, reduce borrowing, provide direct property tax relief, share sales tax revenue with other municipalities to help them be successful with their own transportation needs. That was courageous. And we are now poised for success as a result of it. The district attorney, I see Joel here today. This is a difficult person to get in touch with because he is busy as all of our department heads are. I am so proud of the work Joel's been doing. And the district attorney, as you know, partnered with the Health and Human Services Department. We added an assistant district attorney. Not many counties have done this. The county board did so. So we can focus more on children's welfare and permanency when it comes to adoption. Impressive. We established an opioid detoxification and treatment program. Tom Eggerbrecht and his staff and all involved stepped up. We're also proud of Judge Ed Stangle and all involved for their work with the Drug and Alcohol Treatment Court, as well as the good work by the by the Veterans Court and Charlene Cabuz here this evening. A lot of folks stepped up to assist with those two initiatives and they are far better alternatives to incarceration. Rocky Knoll continues to provide five star quality service. We established joint emergency dispatch, launched emergency medical dispatching. We're in the midst of significantly improving our courthouse security. We're offering more leadership development opportunities than ever before. We engaged our staff. We had an all employment engagement survey and summit recently recognized in the WCM magazine, if you didn't see the April issue. Back speaking of the magazine and Greg Schnell and Jim to be store in the room, we're wrapping up our work on the transportation complex consolidating three facilities into one. And despite all of our challenges, despite of everything we work on together to accomplish to improve, we continue to have healthy fiscal reserves. We continue to lead the state and being frugal with property tax increases and Wendy, our finance director and her team continue to be recipients of achievements of excellence and the excellent job they do with financial reporting. This does not happen by accident. I wish our reception would have been tonight, Mr Chairman. I think I may have aired on that. We should be celebrating success tonight and we will be next week following the county board meeting and all of our guests are certainly invited to come back. We should be celebrating success because it's the people in this room and our management team and our staff who make these good things happen. So without further ado, I'm going to introduce just a few of these good people, key leaders in our organization that we all rely upon to implement the policies of the county board and to administer the good work of their departments. I'm going to start from smallest to largest. I'm going to ask them kindly to go on the east side of the wall so all of our viewers at TV8 can see these folks and I will call them out one by one. So don't file up yet. One by one. Dave Lafine is not here this evening. He had some surgery. He's doing well, but our medical examiner is not here, but he has an annual budget of 202,000. He has four employees and 31 years of experience and as I go through this, focus on that experience a little bit. Charlene Cobb, I see with us our evening, our veteran service officer. She has a budget of 266,000, three employees, and she's been wishy-boying county now for 10 years. Carl Bizzing, our corp council, Crystal Fieber, I know had to leave. She just departed because of a conflict in Plymouth, but we have two strong corporation councils. Carl in particular has been here now for 18 years. He has a $323,000 budget, and though it says on this sheety as one employee, he really works with a law firm of I think eight, seven, and a lot of good people that all provide assistance as needed. Ryan O'Rourke could not be here this evening, our family court commissioner. He's on a much-deserved vacation. He has a $353,000 budget, three employees, four years of experience. John Dolson, our county clerk. Our county clerk has a $454,000 budget, three employees, and has been with us for five years. Cindy Sarcady. Cindy is our area extension director. She's a hybrid. A new approach by UW Sheboygan, UW Extension, rather. She has a $467,000 budget and three employees here in Sheboygan, co-located with UW Sheboygan. She's been with us for just under a year. Jean Gallimore. Jean is our human resources director. She has a budget of $592,000, five employees. She's been with us five years, and I would be remiss not to call out Penny Ellsner, who's probably working on something right now. Hopefully texting her husband saying I'll be home soon, right? Penny is our deputy HR director and does a tremendous job. Ellen Schleicher. Ellen is our register of deeds. She has a $636,000 operating budget, seven employees, and 12 years with Sheboygan County. Joel Armanski. Joel is our district attorney. A $1.1 million budget, 15 employees, and 11 years of service with Sheboygan County. Wendy Sharnon. Finance director. Wendy has a $1.5 million budget, 17 employees, three years of experience, though as you know, Wendy is involved with developing the county-wide budget, which is $149 million. Aaron Brault, Planning and Conservation Director. Aaron oversees a $2 million budget, has 14 employees and 11 years of experience with Sheboygan County. Chris Lewinsky, IT director. Oversing a $2.1 million budget, seven employees, three years of experience. Melody Lorgie. Clerk of Courts. Oversing a $2.1 million budget, 24 employees, and you would not believe this. 34 years experience with Sheboygan County. Drinking from the fountain of youth. Jim to Beast. Jim to Beast is our building services director. Oversees a $3.5 million budget. Oversees 30 employees, 18 years of service with Sheboygan County. Kayla Clinton. Rocky Null Administrator. $13.4 million budget. Oversees 160 employees. She's been with us just for just six months, but hit the ground running. Greg Schnell, Transportation Director. $18.9 million budget, 95 employees, 12 years of service, and of course Greg and Jim have just done a stellar job overseeing the complex and consolidating three facilities into one. Charles Sweet, is Charles with us this evening? Excellent. Charles is our airport superintendent. This was one of our consolidations. We consolidated the airport and highway into a transportation department. Charles oversees a $667,000 budget, has three employees and has been with us for four years. Sheriff Corey Raceler, $20.4 million budget, 192 employees, 27 years of experience with Sheboygan County. Inspector Jim Russo could not be with us tonight, but the inspector as well has been just outstanding in his 30 years of experience working with Sheboygan County. Tom Eggebrecht. Tom Eggebrecht is our Health and Human Services director. $33.6 million budget, 193 employees, nine years of service to Sheboygan County. Scott Shackleford. Scott here. No, I'm sorry. Scott had a conflict tonight. Shannon Otten had a conflict tonight. And Diane had a conflict tonight. Jackie Mogulski. Jackie is new to our team. Manager Division of Economic Support. So many of you probably haven't seen Jackie before. We were able to recruit her from Washington County and welcome Jackie. Oh, behavioral health. I had that written down here and read the wrong line. Could I borrow someone's glasses? Thank you, Tom. Welcome. Welcome, Jackie. And Tim Gessler. Tim is our manager division of economic support. That was an area where we consolidated with child support. And that was a separate department years ago. Another consolidation. And Tim stepped up and did an excellent job overseeing that and provided a smooth transition. He's been with us now for 10 years. Of course, I'm your county administrator. I mentioned $149 million budget, 825 employees. I've been here 19 years. Who am I missing? Laura. I wasn't going to introduce Laura tonight. Laura Henning Lorenz is our county treasurer and without her, none of us get paid. I am so sorry, Laura. Welcome, Laura Henning Lorenz. Let me see where I skipped over you. I got to go back here. Did I skip over anyone else? No, I just skipped your name. A $765,000 budget, 8 employees, 15 years with Sheboygan County. Did I miss anyone else? Thank you for pointing that out. So in total, in total, 316 years of experience stand before you right now. 316 years of experience. This is a rock solid team. And on that note, you may be excused. Thank you. Let's put our hands to the phone. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Thank you, Adam. Thank you for all you do. And thank you to all the department heads and elected officials on behalf of the full board. Thank you very much. Next, we have adoption of rules chapter 2, which we do every two years. Now, as the memo said, there are no changes. So at this point, I'll look for a motion and a second. Supervisor Wagerman. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will move that we adopt the resolutions as presented. Thank you, Supervisor Wagerman. Supervisor Koch. A second that motion. Thank you, Supervisor Koch. Is there any questions or discussion? Any questions or discussion? Seeing none, we may all vote. Please push your aye or nay button. Since the previous unanimous thing. Thank you. Next, I'll turn the elections over to our very capable Corporation Council, Carl Bissing. Carl? Mr. Chair, you need to turn it over to the clerk who has to turn it over to me. I'll turn it over to the clerk, then you can give it to Carl. All right, then the clerk directs Corporation Council to conduct the election of chairperson, vice chair person, and executive committee members. Thank you, Mr. Clerk. All right, what you do on our organizational election. I used to conduct this according to the usual method. However, last term you codified the usual method into a written format, so now I have to follow a script. So, we are going to elect a chairperson, a vice chair person, and three additional executive committee members. The first task I have is to appoint three election tellers from among the department heads. So, those department heads who didn't leave are at risk. First of all, I'll appoint Wendy Sherman, our finance director, so that they will be counted properly. I will appoint Aaron Walt, our planning and conservation director, so that they will not be wasted votes. And I will appoint Sheriff Corey Riesler. No, not because we want to make sure it's done right, but because he's the most junior department head, so he gets stuck. So, I would ask that the tellers come to the teller table. The organizational election shall be conducted by secret ballot. It's the only opportunity you as supervisors can essentially to use secret ballots. Then your tenure as supervisors, everything else pursuant to the open meeting law must be publicly recorded. But you do get secret ballots here today. So, the first vote will be for the office of county chairperson. And I would entertain nominations. The first vote in each election for a given office shall be the nominating ballot. The corporation council shall display the result of the nominating ballot and shall ask all supervisors receiving at least one vote if they accept the nomination. So, shout them out from the floor, or do we nominate by secret ballot? Secret ballot. Secret ballot. So, do they have their secret ballots? They do. All right. Then those supervisors can regularly use, they want it for nominees. According to our new rules, you get one vote per ballot. That's now in the rules. You do not have to. County board chair nominating this is a pastel routine workout with the Kertie Fielder that she had to leave. And I'm not going to do it by myself. That doesn't work as well. Not doing that. Do we have any non-needs? I won't get the counter to it. I want the names. How later? Supervisor Weigler. The majority of them are non-needs. Supervisor Marthensi. And Supervisor Koch. Supervisor Koch. How many nominations does Supervisor Weigler have? Twenty. How many did the Supervisor Marthensi have? Two. How many for Supervisor Koch? One. All right. Now, do any of you three wish to decline your nomination? Supervisor, Koch is declining his nomination. Anybody else? Will it be an opportunity for debate? Do you have strength for anything? No. No. In that case, you decline the nomination. Now under these rules that you have enacted last month, we have to vote again. Because this was just the nominating ballot. Now we are into the election ballot. Wrong one. We have one candidate. But there may be a right ends because it is a secret ballot. These are your rules, ladies and gentlemen. Tellers that it is unreadable, contains extraneous verbiage, or marks, is blamed for his cast for a name not the nomination will be classified as an abstention and shall reduce the number of votes passed by one vote. So be careful. Telling you name time with the A or B, right? Twenty-four. For who? Twenty-four votes for Supervisor Weigler. I declare and certify that Supervisor Weigler has been elected chair person of the Chewagon Public Board. Take care of that. Nice question. Yes. Twenty-three ballots for the nomination. Because somebody chose not to nominate somebody. You'll have to nominate somebody. Thank you. All right. Vice chairperson, vice chair, entertain nominating ballots to nominate somebody. Give your secret ballot to the teller. In the interim, please sign your oaths before you leave tonight. Thank you. Two nominees for Vice Chair. First one. That's your rules. We now have first round voting on the solely nominee. We may want to revisit this in our rules. Extraining this verbally not nomination. Surely classified as an abstention. One abstention. Okay. One vote for Mark Hennessy. That's abstention. And twenty-two for House. Twenty-two. I certify and declare that Supervisor Hatch has a majority in his elected vice chairperson. Number one. This is completely out. You took those. I got nothing. I am a superintendent. He had a little bit of work this past weekend. Thank you very much. Sunday morning and return from Milwaukee. Sunday later in the afternoon. And it got much better when I hit the Chewagon County line. So I like that. How about the airport? Did we get that out clean up on the primary track? Charles, do you still here? Supervisor Effing. Supervisor Siegelbauer. Two. Two. They're damp. Supervisor Dam. Supervisor Geary. Supervisor Geary. Four. Four. Supervisor Mark Hennessy. Supervisor Benz. One. Supervisor Glavin. Supervisor Glavin. Three. Supervisor Hoffman. Supervisor Hoffman. One. Two inns. Yes. Two inns. Supervisor Cotton. Supervisor Atten. One. And that's Supervisor Procek. Supervisor Procek. Five. See, now it gets entertaining. Ladies and gentlemen. Don't beat me to gel jokes. All right. Do any of the nominees choose to decline in the nomination? Supervisor Marthensy, you're declining. Anybody else? Supervisor Atten. You're passing. Thank you. This is executive number one. So if you come to executive number two, if you decline it on one, are you still eligible for two? Sure. Okay. If you want to be inconsistent, that's fine. Well, I'm just saying. Yes. Yes. So. Or you can change your mind between that lengthy period of time. Anybody else wish to decline in the nomination? Skim none. I would ask you to vote. Round one for executive seat number one. Supervisor Upping. Four. Supervisor Ziegelbauer. One. Supervisor Ziegelbauer. One. Supervisor Dam. Three. Supervisor Dam. Three. Supervisor Gehry. Four. Four. Supervisor Gehry. Four. Supervisor Glauvin. Three. Supervisor Glauvin. Three. Supervisor Gossler. One. Supervisor Huffman. One. Supervisor Prochak. Seven. Supervisor Prochak. Seven. I do not believe we have a majority. Okay. Now I believe we drop off the name. Right? Let me read this again. Attorney Supervisor, I'll continue to cast one vote per ballot for one of the names placed in the nomination for the office ad election by writing the last name and on the note. We do not drop off. We continue to vote. We'll have to revisit this. Oh, it does today. Here are your rules. Supervisors. Yes. Does anyone wish to decline? Supervisor Zicklebauer is declining so far. Before that time. Now I know the supervisor power has, we have 23 supervisors present. Still need 12. Supervisor Albin, two. Damn. Supervisor Dan, three. Supervisor Glavin, two. Supervisor Huffman, one. Supervisor Prochak, ten. As I indicated, the majority is 23 divided by two. Ron Taram, three. Does any of the nominated candidates wish to decline at this juncture? If you declined at this juncture, please proceed to vote for an all-in-three. Supervisor Albin, one. Supervisor Dan, two. Supervisor Dan, two. Supervisor Gehring, five. Supervisor Gehring, five. Supervisor Huffman, one. Supervisor Huffman, one. And Supervisor Prochak, 14 there. Supervisor Prochak, 14. Zero. Zero for Glavin. Supervisor Glavin, zero. All right. Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. You've kept me prepared to write on to the next sheet. And so, congratulations to Supervisor Prochak. That is elected Executive Committee Seat Number One. We're now on to Executive Committee Seat Number Two. We have nominees for Seat Number Two. Who do we have? Supervisor Siegel, two. Huffman, one. Supervisor Huffman. Supervisor Gehring. Supervisor Gehring. Eight. And Dan. Supervisor Dan. On to Round One, Executive Committee Seat Number Two. Supervisor Siegelbauer, Huffman, Glavin, Gehring, Effing and Dan. Supervisors want to hear Supervisor Howard say. Can we get that to happen or not to this? Thank you. Seat Number Two. Yes. Siegelbauer, two. Supervisor Siegelbauer, two votes. Huffman, one. Supervisor Huffman, one vote. Glavin, three. Supervisor Glavin, three votes. Gehring, eleven. Supervisor Gehring, eleven votes. Effing, five. Supervisor Effing, five votes. Dan, one. Supervisor Dan, one vote. Does anybody wish to withdraw the nomination? Supervisor Siegelbauer. Anybody else? Round Two, Round Two. Thank you, Supervisor Siegelbauer. Your choices are Supervisor Hoffman, Supervisor Glavin, Supervisor Gehring, Supervisor Effing, and Supervisor Dan. Only vote one, so they can get on them. All right. Supervisor Hoffman, one. Supervisor Hoffman, one. Supervisor Glavin, two. Supervisor Glavin, two. Supervisor Gehring, 15. Supervisor Gehring, 15. Supervisor Effing, four. Supervisor Effing, four. And Supervisor Dan, one. Supervisor Dan, one. It appears that Supervisor Gehring has a majority, and the other two are attracted to the other. I'm always wrong. All right. All right. You have Hobbler, one. Supervisor Hover, one. Now, if you had some, it might have been. That was someone who were working for us. Supervisor Effing, seven. Supervisor Bosman, one. Supervisor Bosman, one. Opponent, two. Supervisor Hoffman, one. And Supervisor Glavin, three. Supervisor Glavin, one. Supervisor Bosman, declined. Does anybody else decline? Who's been on the decline? Supervisor Hover, declined. Thank you, gentlemen. Professor Bosman. So your candidates are Supervisor Gamm, Supervisor Zigglemower, Supervisor Effing, Supervisor Hoffman, and Supervisor Lavin. You're not taking my treatment. I'm an activation person, too. I think we should place them under arrest. Yes. Supervisor Damp, six. Supervisor Effing, five. Supervisor Effing, five. Supervisor Hoffman, two. Supervisor Hoffman, two. Supervisor Glavin, three. We are on to problem two. Does anybody wish to decline in validation? Supervisor Effing, I'd like to encourage those. Thank you, Supervisor Effing. I'm going to go down there. It'll be written next. Supervisor Glavin. Thank you. Thank you, Supervisor Glavin. That means Supervisor Damp, Supervisor Zigglemower, Supervisor Hoffman. Supervisor Zigglemower, 11. Hoffman, two. Does anybody want to decline? Supervisor Damp, nine. Supervisor Zigglemower, 12. Supervisor Zigglemower, 12. Supervisor Hoffman, two. Supervisor Hoffman, two. Finance director, am I right in thinking that 12 is a majority in a group of 23? I would declare Supervisor Zigglemower the winner of the third seat on the second seat. Okay, real quick. Dick Beamer said I have 45 seconds and no more to say. No, I'm just kidding. I will keep it very short. Thank you very much. I said on the radio a couple of months ago, there is no I in county government. I sincerely believe that. It's all about we. I think when we succeed, we succeed together. And I want to thank you for that. I did want to make special note of my two brothers who are in the back. Father Gary, thank you for doing the invocation. And my other brother, Jim, is there from, he does live in Mantua County, but we still like him. That's all right. And actually, Jim is a coach at Two Rivers Basketball for 20-some years. He's a Hall of Fame basketball coach. Very proud of him. And my wife, Susie, thank you very much. He coached Aaron Brault, by the way, Aaron. You could talk to Aaron about that. So small world. And thank you, Susie. So, Vern. Thank you. I'm honored and humbled to be selected the vice chairman for the county board. I look forward to working with everybody over the course of the next two years. And I will do the job to the best of my ability. Thank you. Thank you, Vern. And I, too, would echo to George, thank you for your service as vice chair for the last two years. Thank you very much, George. Next, we have a adjournment. So if Supervisor Beemus would... Thank you, Supervisor Beemus. Is there a second? Supervisor Obler. Mark, missing? Right. I vote... Thank you, Supervisor Obler. I wasn't worried about that. I don't think there's any discussion, so please push your I button and we will stand adjourn until next Tuesday.
