[4.D.5. Discuss and approve the reimbursement to Walnut Creek Special Utility District for requests 1 & 2 for services provided by Landmark Structures for ARPA Water Distribution and Storage Upgrades project. (Kim Rivas / Commissioner Walden)]

MOVE TO ITEM FIVE, DISCUSS AND IMPROVE THE REIMBURSEMENT TO WALNUT CREEK SPECIAL UTILITY DISTRICT FOR REQUEST ONE AND TWO FOR SERVICES PROVIDED BY LANDMARK STRUCTURES FOR A WATER DISTRIBUTION AND STORAGE UPGRADES PROJECT.

>> THEIR ORIGINAL CONCEPTS AND SCOPE CHANGED A LITTLE BIT BUT THE END RESULT WILL BE THE SAME AND SO WE HAVE REQUESTED THAT WALNUT CREEK SUBMIT WHERE THEY HAVE THEIR BOARD'S APPROVAL FOR THESE CHANGES AND TALKING A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT.

SO THAT WE CAN GET THEM REIMBURSED.

>> THEY HAD LET US KNOW, PART OF WHENEVER Y'ALL APPROVED THE MOU, WE HAD A DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK OR WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO CONSTRUCT AT THAT TIME. THEY WERE STILL IN TRYING TO ACQUIRE A LAND AND SO THAT PREVIOUS LANDOWNER PUT LAND RESTRICTIONS ON WHAT TYPE OF STORAGE TANK THEY WERE ABLE TO BUY AND SO ORIGINALLY THE COURT HAD APPROVED 1.5 MILLION.

THEY HAD TO BUY A DIFFERENT ONE WHICH TURNED INTO A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PROJECT ALTHOUGH IT'S ACHIEVING THE SAME PURPOSE AND SO THE COMMITTEE WANTED THE COURT'S APPROVAL TO APPROVE THAT CHANGE OF SCOPE AGAIN IT'S SERVING THE SAME PURPOSE AND IT BECAME MUCH MORE COSTLY THAN WHAT THEY WERE ORIGINALLY GOING

[00:15:02]

TO CONSTRUCT BUT IT WAS DUE TO RESTRICTIONS ON THAT SO THEY DID CONFIRM TO US AND PUT IT IN A LETTER THAT BASICALLY THEIR 2023 BOND PROCEEDS WOULD RETAIN FROM THAT PROJECT AS WELL AS ANY GENERAL OPERATING FUND SO THE COMMITTEE WANTED TO ENSURE THE FUNDS THAT THE COUNTY WAS GOING TO SET WOULD ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO FINISH THAT PROJECT SO AT THIS TIME THEY HAVE EXPANDED A LITTLE OVER $3 MILLION, 3.5 MILLION ON THE PROJECT AND SO WHAT THEY WOULD DO IS TURN IT INTO THOSE INVOICES TO MAKE THE 1.5 AND WE

WOULD REIMBURSE THEM FOR THAT. >> AT FIRST THEY WOULD PUT A WATER TOWER AND AFTER THEY ACQUIRED THEY WOULD -- THEY HAVE BUILT WATER TANKS RATHER THAN A WATER TOWER SO IN TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ARBOR FUNDS, THIS ACTION NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE NOTING THAT THERE IS A CHANGE FROM THE INITIAL APPROVAL TO A WATER STORAGE TANK RATHER THAN A

WATER TOWER. >> CORRECT.

WE WOULD STILL HAVE THEM PROVIDE US ALL THE BACKUP WHICH WE HAVE STARTED WORKING ON THE BACKUP DOCUMENTATION AND ALL OF THAT TO PROCESS THE PAYMENT SO THAT WOULD COME BEFORE THE COURT JUST

AS AUDITOR PAYABLE. >> ANY DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? ALL IN FAVOR? MOTION CARRIES 5-0.

>> COULD WE LOOK AT 7I? >> MOVING TO 7I, CONSIDER DONATION, CONSIDER APPROVE THE DONATION OF 12 SETS OF EXPIRED BODY ARMOR TO BROCK ISD FOR THEIR GUARDIAN PROGRAM, WITH

WILLIAM COOPER, WE WERE ASKED IF WE HAD ANY EXPIRED BODY ARMOR, BULLETPROOF VESTS. WE HAVE A DOZEN SETS RIGHT NOW THAT ARE SET TO BE DESTROYED BECAUSE TYPICALLY WHAT WE DO WITH THESE VESTS AFTER THEY RUN THEIR COURSE.

THESE VESTS ARE SERVICEABLE, IN MY OPINION, THE INTEGRITY OF THE VESTS HAVE NOT BEEN COMPROMISED BUT AGAIN THEY HAVE EXPIRED SO WE WOULD DESTROY THESE VEST, IT'S BEEN REQUESTED THAT WE DONATE THESE TO BROCK SCHOOLS FOR THEIR GUARDIAN PROGRAMING, TEACHERS AND STAFF THAT HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO RESPOND IN ACTIVE SHOOTER SITUATIONS WE WOULD LIKE TO DONATE THOSE VESTS

IF THAT PLEASES THE COURT. >> I THINK THIS IS A GREAT IDEA BUT I DO HAVE QUESTIONS FOR JOHN.

DOES THIS EXPOSE US TO LEGAL LIABILITY?

>> YES, SIR. WE PRESENTED THE SUPERINTENDENT WITH A WAIVER OF LIABILITY BOTH RELEASING THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE AND THE MANUFACTURER FOR ANY LIABILITY.

THE VESTS ARE EXPIRED AND THEY KNOW THAT.

THEY DON'T HAVE ANY POLICE MARKINGS AND IT'S BEEN ASKED THAT THEY ONLY BE USED IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS.

>> BROCK IS A GREAT SCHOOL DISTRICT.

WE HAVE OTHERS IN THE COUNTY. IS THIS SOMETHING WE SHOULD

EXPLORE? >> I ANTICIPATE WE WILL DO THIS

MORE IN THE FUTURE, YES. >> END OF DISCUSSION.

[5.A. Discuss/Take action on the IH-20 Frontage Road Project PS&E professional services contract. (Chris Bosco / Commissioner Walden)]

MOVING TO ITEM 5A. DISCUSS TAKE ACTION ON THE I H-20 FRONTAGE ROAD PROJECT PS AND E PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT. CHRIS.

>> CHRIS FOUR, WE HAVE A COUPLE ITEMS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION TODAY. THE FIRST ONE IS THE I-20 FRONTAGE ROAD BETWEEN DENNIS AND OLD DENNIS ROAD.

THE FINAL DESIGN CONTRACT IS WHAT WE HAVE FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION TODAY SO GRAHAM AND ASSOCIATES IS THE FIRM LEADING THE DESIGN ON THIS. THEY'VE DONE A GOOD JOB PROGRESSING, GETTING CLOSE TO GETTING ADVERTISED FOR A PUBLIC MEETING. A COUPLE COURTS AGO WE GOT THEM APPROVED FOR A FEASIBILITY STUDY THAT WAS REQUESTED TO EXPAND OUTSIDE OF THESE LIMITS. TO REALLY LOOK AT IT AS NEW

[00:20:01]

DEVELOPMENTS HAPPEN TO ENSURE IMPROVEMENTS AND WHAT KIND OF MESH FOR THE OVERALL PROJECT AND THIS IS FOR THE FINAL DESIGN.

HERE SO YOU CAN ALL SEE THIS. THAT IS PSNE STANDING FOR PLANS, SPECS AND ESTIMATES. THIS IS THE FINAL PHASE, GETTING THE PROJECT TO BID. THE KEY ITEMS IN THIS ADDITIONAL SCOPE IS SOME ADDITIONAL SURVEY, A LOT OF THIS IS AROUND THE SAME CREEK AREA AS THEY'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE DRAINAGE.

BASICALLY FUNCTIONING AS A DAM AND SO WORKING THROUGH THAT WITH THE FRONTAGE ROAD AND OF COURSE DEVELOPING THE FULL CONSTRUCTION PLAN. THEY HAVE A SIGNAL AT DENNIS ROAD IN THIS SCOPE. THE TRAFFIC CONTROL, KIND OF THE CONNECTIONS TO REMIND YOU THAT GRAHAM IS FOCUSED ON THE FRONTAGE ROADS AND TECH STOCK WOULD BE DOING THE MAIN LANES AND CHANGING THE RAMPS BUT WE WILL HAVE SOME INTERIM CONNECTIONS TO THE EXISTING RAMPS.

LEVEL A-SUE ALONG THE ENTIRE CORRIDOR AND QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL AND THE CONSULTING MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION EFFORT SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE BREAKDOWN, THE ASSOCIATES AMOUNT IS 3,748,000. CONSULTANT, MANAGEMENT AND REVIEW OF THE DOCUMENTS IS 263,400.

SO THAT WOULD BRING THE TOTAL AMOUNT FOR THIS FINAL CONTRACT AT 4 MILLION, 11,400. I PUT A SUMMARY AT THE BOTTOM HERE. WE HAVE ADDED SOME ELEMENTS LIKE THE FEASIBILITY STUDY THAT WERE OUTSIDE OF THE ORIGINAL VISION FOR THIS PROJECT BUT IN EFFORTS TO COORDINATE WITH TECH STOCK AND SO WE HAVE IN THIS PROGRAM COST, 2,365,000, 765 AND THEN WITH YOUR APPROVAL TODAY WE WOULD TRANSFER FROM THE PROJECT, 1,645,635 TO EQUAL THAT BUDGET AMOUNT THAT'S PROPOSED HERE.

SO WITH THAT, CHAD IS HERE. BRIAN, CHAD, AND I HAVE HAD SEVERAL MEETINGS WITH TXDOT, GRAHAM, AND GETTING THIS PULLED TOGETHER OF WHAT PARTS TXDOT IS DOING AND WHAT PART GRAHAM AND

RUTHERFORD ARE. >> WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY

ANYTHING ON THIS? >> THANK YOU, JUDGE AND COMMISSIONER. EXCITED ABOUT THIS CONTRACT.

THIS REALLY REPRESENTS A HUGE MILESTONE IN ADVANCING THESE FRONTAGE ROADS. FAR FASTER THAN WHAT TXDOT WOULD NORMALLY DO SO THE SCHEMATIC HAS REACHED 60% DESIGN SO MOVING FORWARD ON THIS, KNOWING THAT THE SCHEMATIC WILL NOT CHANGE, IT SPEEDS THIS UP BY YEARS HONESTLY SO CHRIS HAS STRUCTURED THIS EXCELLENT. COMMISSIONER WALDEN, THANK YOU FOR TAKING ACTION ON THIS AND SUPPORTING THE PROJECT.

IT'S NEEDED AND TEXTILE PARTNERING WITH US TO BREAK THIS OUT IS IMPORTANT TOO SO A HUGE NEXT STEP AND I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU AND APPRECIATE THE PARTNERSHIP.

>> COMMISSIONER WALDEN SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HALE.

CHRIS. >> WE'VE BEEN DOING AN ANNUAL PROGRAM MANAGEMENT AMENDMENT. IF I ZOOM IN HERE, WITH THIS, A PROGRAM MANAGEMENT EFFORT, THIS INCLUDES ALL THE PROJECTS BUT THE PROJECT CONTROLS THE MONTHLY REPORTING, THIS IS WHERE WE PUT ALL THE BUDGET AROUND THE COORDINATION ON FUNDING, THE ADVANCED FUNDING AGREEMENT AND THEN GENERAL ENGINEERING SUPPORTS AROUND IF THERE'S SOME ENGINEERING EFFORT THAT Y'ALL NEED OUTSIDE OF ONE OF THE PROJECTS, THAT IS PART OF THIS PROGRAM AMOUNT, ALSO INCLUDING THE COORDINATION WITH SUBS AROUND RIGHT AWAY GETTING TRAFFIC COUNT SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE PROGRAM AS A WHOLE VERSUS AN INDIVIDUAL PROJECT.

WHEN WE ARE DOING THE PLANNING WE HAD AROUND $2 MILLION BUDGETED FOR PROGRAM MANAGEMENT WITH THE PAST TWO CONTRACTS AT 800,000 BUT WITH APPROVAL TODAY, THAT WOULD BRING US TO

[00:25:05]

1.3 MILLION. NEXT YEAR WILL BE FINALIZED, WE EXPECT THE PROGRAM TO TO BE UNDER THE OVERALL BUDGET WITH THE PROGRAM MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES.

>> ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR?

[6.A. Discussion/Update on Regional Transportation Council Meeting. (Judge Deen)]

MOVE TO ITEM 6A CACTUS DISCUSSION AND UPDATE ON REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL MEETING.

BEFORE THIS, I WILL REFERENCE AND IT FALLS UNDER THE TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL AND STEPPING BACK INTO THE MEETING AND THAT WAS AN EXCUSED ABSENCE WHERE I FELT LIKE GIVEN THE BUDGET SITUATION, WE HAVE BRIAN REPRESENTING US BUT LAST WEEK THERE WAS A TRANSPORTATION MEETING WHICH PARKER COUNTY WAS THE FEATURED, PROBABLY A COUPLE HUNDRED PEOPLE THERE.

FROM ALL OVER, FROM THE NORTH TEXAS REGION AND WHAT WAS SO GOOD ABOUT THAT THAT WE WERE ABLE TO -- IT WAS A KEY NOTE SPEAKER AS WELL AS WHAT COMMISSIONER HALE AND ALSO CHAD WAS PART OF A QUESTION AND ANSWER GROUP THAT WAS ON STAGE AND DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND YOU REFERENCED IN TERMS OF PARTNERSHIPS IN THE MONEY AND THE EMPHASIS AND I KNOW THERE IS A LOT OF ANIMOSITY OR GETTING SO MUCH FUNDING AND ATTENTION FROM THAT BECAUSE OF THE WORK THAT YOU ALL ARE DOING IN THANK YOU FOR THAT BECAUSE THESE PARTNERSHIPS ARE WORKING.

IT'S RESULTING IN ADVANCING, AND AS YOU SAID YEARS AND GETTING THOSE THINGS DESIGNED AND GETTING THOSE THINGS DONE.

YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME, MAD AS HECK AT TRYING TO GET THIS THING DONE SO THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID.

THAT MEETING WAS BIG. IT WAS ABOUT PARKER COUNTY AND EVERYBODY IN THAT ROOM. I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THERE WITHOUT QUESTIONS ON THAT SO YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB.

DO YOU WANT TO ADD TO THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION?

YOU WENT BUT I DIDN'T. >> YES, SIR.

TO PIGGYBACK. THE T RTC EVENT, I HAVE BEEN GETTING EMAILS AND TEXT MESSAGES FROM FOLKS ALL OVER THE REGION.

COMMISSIONER HALE, YOU DID A GREAT JOB ON THE PANEL AS WELL.

I THINK THE ONE THING, THE BIG TAKEAWAY THAT I GOT FROM CONSULTANTS, DEVELOPERS IN THE ROOM AND ELECTED OFFICIALS WAS HOW ARE YOU PULLING THIS OFF? AND THE ANSWER I GAVE WAS THERE'S A LEVEL OF TRUST WITH ALL THE ENTITIES INVOLVED AND TRUST AND STRAIGHTFORWARDNESS AND I THINK THAT IS PAYING OFF IN SPADES AS FAR AS THE REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS GO.

AT THE RTC MEETING THAT I ATTENDED A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, MOST OF THE MEETING WAS ON THE SITUATION REGARDING MICHAEL MORRIS, A BRIEF RECAP, HE WAS TERMINATED IN APRIL AND THROUGH A COURT ORDER WAS REINSTATED BACK IN MAY AND SO THE RTC HAS SPENT PROBABLY THE BETTER PART OF THE SUMMER NEGOTIATING WITH MORRIS AND THE AGREEMENT IN EVERY DAY TERMS IS THAT THEY CODIFY THE WORKING RELATIONSHIP AS IT'S BEEN FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS SO MAKING SURE I GOT THAT RIGHT.

AUTHORIZING THE SHARED NEGOTIATION EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT WITH TXDOT. THE COG IS NO LONGER MICHAEL MORRIS DIRECT EMPLOYER AND THEY ARE NOW THE FISCAL AGENT SO HE NOW RUNS IT. THAT SHOULD ELIMINATE SOME OF THE POLITICAL INTERFERENCE WITH THEIR ABILITY TO DO THAT JOB, A GREAT ASSET FOR PARKER COUNTY. MICHAEL MORRIS HAS SEVERAL TIMES SAID WE ARE THE STANDARD FOR HOW COUNTY SHOULD OPERATE AND THAT IS OBVIOUSLY GOOD NEWS. THERE WERE SOME OTHER HOUSEKEEPING ITEMS GOING ON BUT THEY HAD A HARD 3:00 DEADLINE AND ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF OF THE MEETING WAS TALKED ABOUT.

WITH THAT, ANY QUESTIONS? >> THANK YOU.

>> JUDGE, I HAVE A COMMENT ABOUT TRANSPORTATION IN GENERAL.

WE SIT HERE AND APPROVE MOTIONS AND FUNDING BUT I THINK THAT THE REAL WORK THAT GOES ON THAT GOES ON BEHIND THE SCENES WITH THESE GUYS SITTING HERE IN FRONT OF US AND THE WORK THAT THEY ARE DOING

[00:30:03]

AND WHAT'S GOOD FOR WEATHERFORD IS GOOD FOR PARKER COUNTY AND VICE VERSA SO AS CHAD SO ELOQUENTLY STATED, WE ARE MOVING AHEAD YEARS BY WHAT WE ARE DOING TODAY AND PEOPLE SIT OUT THERE AND SAY WHEN THEY ARE SITTING IN TRAFFIC THEY SAY WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WE ARE USING FUNDING THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE, WE ARE GETTING THAT FUNDING APPROVED FROM SOMEBODY ELSE OUTSIDE OF PARKER COUNTY BRINGING FUNDING HERE TO GET THESE THINGS DONE AND BY LOCKING IN THESE PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE HERE WE ARE LOCKING IN THAT FUNDING AND WE ARE LOCKING IN TXDOT TO GET THE JOB DONE SO I APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING TO BRING US WHERE WE NEED TO BE BECAUSE EVERY ONE OF THESE SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

BUT WE DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY. THAT MONEY MAY HAVE BEEN HERE BUT GOT ALLOCATED SOMEWHERE ELSE THROUGH TXDOT BECAUSE OF SOMETHING ELSE THAT WAS MORE OF A PRIORITY BUT WE ARE LOCKING THEM IN TO GET THIS WORK DONE AND I REALLY APPRECIATE IT AND I HOPE THAT WE CAN SEE SOME MOVING FORWARD BUT IT TAKES TIME AND IT TAKES PATIENCE TO GET THESE PROJECTS DONE AND GET THEM LINED UP SO THESE FOLKS SITTING RIGHT HERE HAVE GOTTEN THAT WORK DONE SO I APPRECIATE THAT AND THANK YOU.

>> I WANT TO ADD TO THAT REALLY QUICK.

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT DOES BENEFIT US IS BEING SHOVEL READY QUICKLY AND THERE IS THIS MONEY THAT IS HELD AND IT WILL GET MOVED WHERE THERE'S A PROJECT THAT'S READY TO GO.

IT MAY BE EARMARKED FOR HOUSTON AND THEY WILL MOVE THAT MONEY AND GET IT HERE IF WE ARE READY TO GO WITH A PROJECT AND WE WILL NOT LET IT SIT IDLE WHILE THEY ARE TRYING TO GET THEIRS SET UP EVEN THOUGH IT'S EARMARKED FOR THAT THEY WILL MOVE THAT MONEY HERE UNLESS WE'VE SET THAT AS A MODEL TO GET IT SHOVEL READY QUICKLY. THAT HAS BEEN A BIG PART OF THIS KEPT GETTING THOSE DOLLARS BECAUSE WE ARE MOVING SO FAST.

THAT IS ADVANCING THAT AS WELL AND IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE UNDERSTAND THAT. THANK YOU, BRIAN.

>> WE WILL HEAR THE REPORT AND THEN I WILL HAVE YOU SPEAK.

>> THIS IS JUST A RECOMMENDATION FROM THE OFFICE OF HOW MANY CLERKS EVERYONE NEEDS AT EACH CENTER.

>> OKAY. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME UP.

>> I'M CHRIS WOOD FROM PRECINCT FOUR.

THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WHEN SPOKEN TO.

I'M SPEAKING ON THE AGENDA ITEM APPROVAL 7C REGARDING APPROVAL OF THE NUMBER OF CLERKS TO BE USED AT EACH COUNTY WIDE POLLING LOCATION FOR THE NOVEMBER 3RD, 2026 GENERAL ELECTION.

I ASK THE COURT TO ENSURE THAT THE APPROVED CLERK STAFFING LEVELS ARE SUFFICIENT FOR ANTICIPATED TURNOUT, VOTER CHECK IN, BALLOT PROCESSING, ACCESSIBILITY SUPPORT AND ORDERLY ELECTION DAY OPERATIONS. I ALSO ASKED THE NUMBER OF CLERKS ASSIGNED TO EACH LOCATION BE TIED TO OBJECTIVE FACTORS SUCH AS EXPECTED VOTER VOLUME, THE FINAL LIST OF POLLING LOCATIONS AND THE NEEDS OF EACH SITE.

BEFORE APPROVAL, I WOULD APPRECIATE THE CONFIRMATION THAT PROPOSED CLERK NUMBERS WERE REVIEWED AGAINST EXPECTED TURNOUT AND SITE SPECIFIC NEEDS FOR EACH POLLING LOCATION.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK.

>> CAN YOU COMMENT? >> THAT IS WHAT WE DO WHENEVER

[00:35:02]

WE ASSIGN THE NUMBERS. WE FIND OUT HOW MANY PEOPLE WE NORMALLY HAVE AT THOSE LOCATIONS AND WHAT WE ARE EXPECTING WE ARE EXPECTING A LARGE TURNOUT FOR THIS NOVEMBER ELECTION AND THEN

-- >> EVERYTHING SHE ASKS FOR WE

WILL DO ANYWAY. >> CORRECT.

[7.D. Discuss and approve Early Voting Schedule for the November 3, 2026 General Election. (Crickett Miller / Judge Deen)]

CARRIES 5-0. DISCUSS EARLY VOTING FOR NOVEMBER 3RD 2026 GENERAL ELECTION.

CRICKET. >> THE NEXT IS SEVEN LOCATIONS USED FOR EARLY VOTING. ALL OF OUR HOURS AND OUR TIMES ARE BY STATUTE AND IT'S 85.0 SO THESE ARE THE HOURS THAT WE MUST BE OPEN. THE LAST FEW ELECTIONS WE'VE BEEN CLOSING ALL OF THE BRANCH LOCATIONS, TWO HOURS EARLY WHICH IS WHAT WE CAN'T DO BUT THIS ELECTION WILL BE BIG SO WE WILL KEEP EVERYONE OPEN FOR THE EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF TIME.

>> I WOULD ASK FOR A MOTION. >> FOR THOSE LISTENING ONLINE, WOULD YOU DISCUSS COUNTYWIDE VOTING, PLEASE.

>> EARLY VOTING IS SAME AS COUNTYWIDE, YOU CAN VOTE AT ANY OF THE SEVEN LOCATIONS DURING THE TIMES THAT WE HAVE ON ELECTION DAY WE WILL HAVE MULTIPLE LOCATIONS AND ANYBODY CAN VOTE AT ANY OF THOSE LOCATIONS.

WE ARE NOT PRECINCT SPECIFIC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GO IF I LIVE IN SPRINGTOWN, I DO NOT HAVE TO GO TO THE SPRINGTOWN LOCATION BUT I CAN GO TO OUR ELECTION OFFICE OR GO OUT TO ADMIN ABOUT IF THERE'S A SCHOOL TEACHER OUT THERE SO YOU CAN GO WHERE IT'S ACCESSIBLE TO YOU ON ELECTION DAY.

>> THE REASON I BRING THAT UP IS WE SEE LONG LINES SOMETIMES AT SOME OF THE MORE CITY BASED LOCATIONS BUT SOME OF THE OTHER LOCATIONS TEND TO BE EITHER EMPTY OR AT LEAST VERY QUICK IN AND OUT THAT WORKS BOTH WAYS. I THINK PEOPLE THINK ABOUT VOTING AT THE ANNEX WHERE WE USED TO VOTE OR SOMEWHERE LIKE THAT BUT YOU CAN ALSO RUN UP 10 MINUTES AWAY AND VOTE AT ONE OF THE MORE RURAL LOCATIONS IF YOU SO CHOOSE.

>> YES. WE HAVE THAT PROBLEM HERE IN TOWN BECAUSE EVERYONE COMES TO THE ELECTION BUILDING TO VOTE.

THE HARBURGER HILL COMMUNITY CENTER IS ALSO A PLACE, CHERRY PARK COMMUNITY CENTER, THOSE ARE ALL CLOSE.

GREENWOOD FIRE DEPARTMENT IS CLOSE BUT WE ALSO TRY TO DIRECT ON EVERY POLLING LOCATION FRONT DOOR IS A LISTING OF THE FOUR CLOSEST AND THEY ARE HIGHLIGHTED SO IF YOU ARE IN THAT LINE GOING TO THE FRONT DOOR YOU CAN SEE FOUR OTHER LOCATIONS THAT ARE CLOSEST TO YOU THAT YOU COULD GO TO.

>> ONE OF THE THINGS I OBSERVED IS EARLY VOTING ENDS AND THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO EARLY VOTE THE DAY BEFORE THE ELECTION, FOR EXAMPLE AND THAT IS FRUSTRATING FOR PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND BUT THAT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT THE COUNTY DOES.

THOSE ARE SET OUT BY THE STATE AND HAVING BEEN A SITE FOR A LONG TIME I REALIZED THE FRUSTRATION OF PEOPLE WHEN THEY WOULD COME TO TRY TO VOTE EARLY AND YOU CANNOT DO THAT.

>> THEY WILL GET THEIR WISH THOUGH, SENATE BILL 2753 WILL PROBABLY GO NEXT YEAR AND THAT WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING.
