GOOD MORNING.

UH, MR. CHAIR.

THANK FOR BEING HERE.

WE HAVE MOST FOR Y'ALL THIS MORNING, BUT I THINK WE'RE PREPARED.

WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE CONTEXT OF OUR, UH, BUDGET AT THE END.

JUST I'LL HAVE SOME NEWS TO SHARE WITH Y'ALL.

THINK EXCITED ABOUT, PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ORGANIZATIONS EMERGING LEADERS PROGRAM.

IT'S SPONSORED BY ED EIGHT AND REALLY IDENTIFIES A COHORT OF EXISTING AND FUTURE EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS FROM AROUND OUR REGION.

SO WE'RE THRILLED THAT HE WAS SELECTED THAT PROGRAM.

AND THEN WE ALSO ARE VERY HAPPY TO WELCOME SEAN SCOTT BACK.

HIS WIFE GOT A PROMOTION AT RED, UH, PROMOTION.

SO SHE'LL BE TRANSFERRED BACK TO RANDOLPH.

AND SO HE'S GONNA BE RETURN TO US AS DIRECTOR, UM, TRANSPORTATION.

AND I REALLY HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND THANK, UH, DNE AND DUKE FOR INTO THE, THEY DID A GREAT JOB HELPING

[00:05:01]

AND SO I REALLY WANNA THANK THEM FOR WHAT THEY DID, UH, TO SUSTAIN US WHILE SEAN WAS THE HIATUS AND JOURNEY.

UM, I ALSO WANNA MAKE SURE ON OUR, WE DID A COUPLE OF THINGS.

ONE, THEY DID ASSIST JBS A IN THE RELOCATION OF FOR SOME RESIDENTS AND SOME STAFF, UH, DUE TO THE BACTERIA THAT WAS GOT THE BARRACKS, THEY DID THAT LAST MONTH.

AND ALSO WE WANNA SHARE WITH YOU AN AWARD THAT THEY GOT FROM NATO, UH, THAT WE GOT, UM, CAUSE OF OUR SOLDIER RECOVERY UNIT TRANSPORTATION IN PARTNERSHIP WITH JBSA AS PART I, GSA ACADEMY NATIONAL NA, THAT RECOGNIZING THAT WE HAVE ALL OF OUR CHOICE OUT TODAY.

SO, UH, THAT'S GOING VERY, VERY WELL.

AS FAR, UM, WE, UH, ALSO, UH, I P D HAS BEEN SO VERY BUSY AND I WANNA, UM, AND YOU MENTIONED THAT ONE OF THE CHALLENGES THEY HAVE HAD THAT YOU WILL SEE IN THE FINANCIAL COURTS IS THE HIGH TURNOVER.

THANKS TO Y'ALL'S ACTIONS TO COURT LAST YEAR, WE WERE ABLE TO DO THE RETENTION PLAN AND IMPLEMENT THAT, WHICH HAS HELPED QUITE A BIT.

BUT WE STILL HAVE A TREMENDOUS TURNOVER.

AND THE TURNOVER REALLY HAS IMPACTED, UH, THEIR FINANCIAL OUTCOME THIS QUARTER PARTICULARLY.

AND YOU'LL SEE IT REFLECT AS WE GO FORWARD.

THEY'VE TAKEN ACTION AND CHANGED, UH, SOME OF THEIR DELIVERY METHODS AND SOME OF THE MANAGEMENT.

AND THIS MONTH, THE PERFORMANCE STABILIZED.

SO WE CAN REALLY SEE A DR THAT IT HAS STABILIZED QUITE A BIT.

BUT WE'LL HAVE TO WORK THROUGH ABOUT A QUARTER, UH, TO REALLY SEE LONG TERM IMPACT OF THAT.

UH, THEY ALSO, WE RECEIVED, UH, ANOTHER AWARD FOR MADE, UH, IN THEIR PHOTO CONTEST THAT REALLY CELEBRATED THEIR GRADUATION FOR OUR IDP US, UH, APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM.

UH, AND, UH, WERE VERY HAPPY WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT A MILITARY VETERANS AFFAIRS.

UH, AND OUR OWN JULIE GA IS GONNA BE CHAIRING THE SAN ANTONIO CHAMBERS, UH, CELEBRATION AMERICA'S MILITARY.

SHE CAN CHAIRMAN, UH, THIS YEAR, WHICH IS A, A GREAT HONOR FOR HER.

AND CERTAINLY WE ARE VERY SUPPORTIVE OF THAT.

SO IT'S A WONDERFUL ABOUT TWO WEEK, UH, SERIES OF EVENTS.

SO WE HOPE THAT CHILD JOIN US IN SOME OF THOSE ON NATURAL RESOURCES.

I THINK IN JANUARY WE'LL PROBABLY HAVE A PRESENTATION FOR THE BOARD, UH, ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH AIR BECAUSE A NON-ATTAINMENT RECLASSIFICATION MODERATE FOR FAIR COUNTY WILL BE EFFECTIVE, UH, NOVEMBER.

AND, UM, AND IT GUESS THEN HAS SIGNIFICANT IMPACT, UH, PARTICULARLY ON BUSINESS AND INDIVIDUALS WITHIN RARE COUNTY AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT.

AND I REALLY HAVE TO THANK, UH, BOTH JUDGE WOLF AND MAYOR NUBER.

WORKING WITH TC Q TCQ HAS BEEN PHENOMENALLY SUPPORTIVE OF COMMUNICATING AND WORKING WITH US AS WE ROLL THAT PROGRAM.

I THINK WE'LL PROBABLY DO IT, UM, A BRIEFLY IN JANUARY FOR Y'ALL.

AND, UH, WE DID GET, UH, AN AWARD FOR 75,000 FROM CCO FOR A REGIONAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT GRANT.

AND WE WILL BE, UM, UH, ROLLING OUT OUT OF THE NEXT YEAR.

ALSO, PUBLIC SAFETY HAS BEEN VERY, VERY BUSY.

THEY PARTICIPATED IN THE ITY MASS CASUALLY WORKSHOP LAST MONTH, AND WE ALSO HELD OUR PEER TO PEER COURSE, UH, IN LATE SEPTEMBER.

AND IT WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL.

YOU, I RECEIV A STORY.

OUR KS A T ABOUT THAT INITIATIVE.

WE HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT TRAINING SESSION OCTOBER 29TH FOR OUR FUSION LIAISON OFFICER.

IT'S A COURSE FOR FIRST RESPONDERS, FOR PUBLIC WORKERS, FOR HEALTH WORKERS, AND MET EMERGENCY MANAGERS, CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS.

IT'S REALLY DESIGNED TO DETECT REPORT, PREVENT VARIOUS ACTS IN OUR REGION.

SO IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT WORKSHOP, UH, THAT WE STILL HAVE REGISTRATION OPEN FOR.

UM, UH, WHEN WE LOOK AT REGIONAL SERVICES, UH, WE HAD TO RESCHEDULE OUR VERY POPULAR COMMUNITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP THAT ED PUTS OFF SCHEDULE IS REALLY FULL.

SO IT'S PROBABLY GONNA PUSHED TO FEBRUARY 20.

UM, WE HAD THAT WORKSHOP AGAIN AND WE'RE STILL WORKING WITH GLO ON ALL OF OUR GRANTS IS GOING A LITTLE BIT SLOWER THAN WE LAUNCH.

SO ALL OF OUR AG MITIGATION FUNDS AND ON WEATHERIZATION.

I WANNA REALLY THANK YOU ALL.

I DON'T, CAUSE WE'RE BEING FRAMED, BUT I REALLY WANNA, UH, THANK JUDGE AND COMMISSIONERS COMMISSION CALVERT, UM, COMMISSION.

BERNARD, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WE WERE RECOGNIZED TO COMMISSIONER'S COURT YESTERDAY FOR, UH, WHAT THE RESOLUTION IS RECOGNIZING WEATHERIZATION AND WEATHERIZATION DAY.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT.

ANYTHING WE COULD DO TO RAISE THE AWARENESS OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE PROGRAM, UH, TO PROVIDE HEALTHY AND SAFE

[00:10:01]

IT'S IMPORTANT.

I ALSO WANNA THANK, UH, COUNCILWOMAN CAST STEEL BECAUSE WE HAD OUR DAY OF THE LIVING DEAD AND THE WEATHERIZATION MASH LAST SATURDAY IN D FIVE, UH, AT, UH, THE SUNDAYS COMMUNITY CENTER.

IT WAS A A GREAT DAY.

THEY HAD REALLY VERY GOOD ATTENDANCE.

AND SO AFTER HAVING TWO REALLY GOOD THINGS, WE HAD A BAD DAY ON, UH, TWO MEXICO WHEN WE HAD A BREAK IN.

AND IT'S THE FIRST TIME WE HAD A BREAK IN INSIDE OUR NEW FENCE OVER THIS.

THEY WENT IN THE BACK THROUGH THE FENCE, UH, TOOK FOUR CABINET CONVERTERS FROM, UH, THE WEATHERIZATION VEHICLES.

THEY'VE BEEN TAKING THEM FROM ART.

AND THIS TIME IT WAS A WEATHERIZATION VEHICLE.

SO WE'RE GONNA BE EXPLORING, UH, CAUSE WE'VE GOT THE CAMERAS AND ALL THEY DO IS TAKE A PICTURE.

YOU GET IT.

UH, SO WE'VE GOT ALL OF THAT, BUT WE'RE BASICALLY, WE CAN'T HAVE, UH, OUR ALARM SYSTEM, UH, REALLY CHANGE THAT OUR ALARM GO OFF AND, AND A LASER TRIGGER.

WE'RE EXPLORING THOSE OPTIONS RIGHT NOW IN THE BUILDING.

UH, WE HAVE A NEW TENANT THAT MOVED IN THIS MONTH AT A NEW TENANT THAT'S MOVING IN NOVEMBER.

FACT MOVING IN TODAY.

IT'S NUMBER FIRST.

AND WE REALLY ARE NEGOTIATING TWO LEASES.

ONE WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT.

AND IT IS WITH BEAR COUNTY FOR, UH, SPACE IN THE PLAZA.

AND THAT'LL JUST ABOUT LEASE UP THE PLAZA.

SO WE'RE NEGOTIATING THAT RIGHT NOW.

AND WE HAVE A TENANT THAT WE'RE NEGOTIATING WITH IN THIS BUILDING, UH, THAT WILL BE ON THE THIRD FLOOR.

AND SO WE'RE KIND OF JUST FINALIZING, UH, BUILD THAT COST FOR THAT A LITTLE BIT.

SO THAT WILL HELP.

AND WE'RE STILL IN THE RUNNING FOR A LARGE SPACE IN THE SIXTH FLOOR.

WE SLOWLY, BUT THEY KEEP TELLING US WHERE THE TOP CANDIDATE, BUT WE HAVE GOTTEN ANYTHING TO THAT RIGHT NOW.

UH, GREAT THING ABOUT CHINESE LEASE IS IT'LL BE FOR SEVEN YEARS.

SO THAT'S WHAT'S REALLY EXCITING ABOUT THAT LEASE COMING FORWARD.

SO WE'RE VERY PLEASED TO WRAP THAT.

I'M FRUSTRATING THOUGH.

OUR ELEVATOR MAINTENANCE.

IT STARTED LAST MONTH.

OUR ELEVATORS ARE SHUT DOWN, SO THEY AT WORK AND THEY STARTED WORK AND DISCOVERED THAT THEY SENT US THE WRONG MOTOR.

SO THEY'RE BACK FUNCTIONING WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE NEW MOTOR TO BE STITCHED.

SO YOU SAID THAT SHOULDN'T BE TOO LONG.

SO WE WILL SEE, UM, YOU WILL SEE THAT OUR, OUR PARKING LOTS REPAIRED.

OUR LEASES HAVE BEEN REPAIRED.

SO WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH THAT.

I WANNA TALK A LITTLE BIT TO KINDA FRAME THE PRESENTATION THAT YOU'LL BE CONSIDERING TODAY.

UH, CAUSE THERE WE HAVE PRIMARY CHALLENGES IN ABOUT FOUR AREAS.

AND I THINK A LOT OF THE CHALLENGES IN DEALING WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF, UH, WE'RE DEALING WITH NOW.

WHEN WE LOOK AT I DG AS YOU KNOW, FROM THE CPRS AND FROM OUR FELLOWS THE PAST, UH, EARLIER THIS YEAR, THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF CHALLENGES WITH TURNOVER.

UM, AND I THINK THE STATE WOULD RECOGNIZE THAT BECAUSE THE, IN OUR CONTRACT WE HAVE TO HAVE A STAFF TO HAVE A BACHELOR'S DEGREE AND UH, MOST OF THEM WERE YOUNG IS A FIRST OR SECOND JOB.

SO THEY CHANGE OUR WONDERFUL BENEFIT PACKAGE.

DOESN'T MATTER THAT MUCH AT AGE.

UH, BUT AS THE STATE HAS RECOGNIZED IT AND THEYRE HOPEFULLY, UH, ADOPTED IN NOVEMBER CHANGE SO THAT WE CAN HIRE FOLKS TWO YEARS OF COLLEGE AND SUBSTITUTE EXPERIENCE.

WE, IN THIS TIME OF A LOT OF COMPETITION AND TURNOVER, UH, THEY HAVE MODIFIED A LOT OF OUR STAFFING PATTERNS.

WE REALLY CHANGED SOME OUR MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS, HOW WE'RE OVERSEEING SOME PROGRAMS. AND THE CPR THIS MONTH DID RECOGNIZE AN IMPROVEMENT IN THEIR PERFORMANCE.

I THINK WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

IT'LL JUST TAKE ABOUT A QUOTE FORWARD FOR THAT TO REALLY SHOW IN THE FINANCIALS, UH, ON ART, WE REALLY ARE TRANSITIONING FROM THE VERY LIMITED RIDERSHIP THAT WE HAD DURING COVID AND ALL THE EXCESS FUNDING THAT WAS AVAILABLE FROM COVID, UH, TO WHAT IS A MORE NORMAL, UH, RETURN TO OUR, OUR REGULAR, UH, RIDERSHIP LEVELS THAT OUR REGULAR FINANCIALS, WE DID NOT CUT OUR EXPENSES THIS SUMMER AS QUICKLY AS WE SHOULD HAVE, UH, ONCE WE EXHAUSTED SOME OF THAT COVID FUNDING.

UH, AND SO WE OWN THAT.

WE HAVE A NEW SOFTWARE PROGRAM THAT HAD SOME PARAMETERS THAT WERE NOT SET TO MEET THE DEMANDS THAT WE SEE.

AND WE HAVE A NEW PHONE SYSTEM THAT REALLY ENOUGH TO ANY OF US HAD SOME VERY RESTRICTIVE, UH, PARAMETERS SET.

SO WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT AND CORRECTED THAT.

AND I THINK WE'RE IN A POSITION TO MOVE FORWARD, UH, MUCH MORE POSITIVELY.

WE ALSO, SHE WILL SEE ON THEIR FINANCE FINANCIALS, WE BOUGHT THE RED TROLLEY, UH, WHICH WE'LL BE ABLE TO USE FOR A LOT OF OUR CELEBRATIONS AND ESPECIALLY EVENTS.

WE CAN USE IT FOR THE PROTEIN STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL.

WE CAN USE IT SURE UP IN TOWN, MAIN STREET AND FREDERICKSBURG.

WE CAN USE IT FOR ANY KIND OF A CELEBRATION.

AND WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT

[00:15:01]

AND WE ALSO BOUGHT FINE DANCE.

RIGHT NOW THE WAITING LIST FOR VANS, OUR BUSES IS TWO, THREE YEARS.

SO WE HAD A VENDOR THAT HAD FIVE ADS AVAILABLE.

SO WE DID BUY THAT.

IT DID TAKE, UH, A LOT OF OUR UH, UH, FUNDING AVAILABLE FROM, UH, THE ART THING.

I THINK IN THE LONG RUN IT'S A VERY GOOD DECISION CUZ IT WILL SERVE US WELL.

BUT IT DID TAKE SOME OF OUR, UH, REVENUE AWAY FROM THAT FUND.

YOU'LL SEE THAT IN THE BUSH AS WE MOVE FORWARD.

UH, WHEN WE LOOK AT AGING, Y'ALL HAVE BEEN AWARE THAT ALL YEAR WE'VE HAD SOME CHALLENGES WITH OUR NUTRITION PROGRAM.

UH, OUR CUSTOMERS KEPT TELLING US THE SENIOR CENTERS WERE GONNA OPEN UP, PEOPLE WOULD RECHARGE IN NORMAL VOLUMES AND WE WORKED WITH THEM TOWARDS THAT.

SO WE DID NOT MOVE THE FUNDING FROM THE CONGREGATE FEE SIDES TO HOME DELIVERED MEALS QUICKLY AS WE SHOULD AND WE SHOULD MOVE YOU.

ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO, WE DID NOT DO THAT.

THE GOOD NEWS IS WE DON'T LOSE THAT FUNDING.

IT CARRIES FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR.

THE BAD NEWS IS WE HAD A REALLY BAD MONTH FINANCIALLY IN AUGUST CAUSE OF THAT, OR IN, UH, SEPTEMBER CAUSE OF THAT.

SO YOU WILL SEE THAT FINANCIALS TODAY.

I THINK WE WILL BE MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE WITH HOW WE MANAGE THOSE STUDIES, UH, REALIZING THAT THE WORLD IS NEVER GONNA BE QUITE THE WAY IT WAS.

AND SO AS WE MOVE FORWARD, UH, I THINK WE'LL BE HANDLING THAT BETTER.

SO I DID WANT TO SET THAT PARAMETER FOR YOU AND PUT A LITTLE BIT OF CONTEXT IN.

HOPEFULLY NOW WE, WE CERTAINLY ARE SEEING THE DEMAND THERE.

UH, AND THE GOOD NEWS IS WE HAVE CARRIE FOR BAD SAYS WE HAVE CARRIE FOR CAUSE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SPENT THIS YEAR.

SO IS THAT MR. CHAIRMAN? I'M AVAILABLE WITH.

ANY QUESTIONS? ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? NO.

ALL RIGHT.

MAYOR DEION, REGARDING THE, THE COMMENT ABOUT HARVEY FUNDS.

YES.

UM, IS THAT STILL TOO DISPERSED TO PEOPLE'S PEOPLE? IT IS.

NO, IT'S VERY RESTRICTIVE.

WHO'S ELIGIBLE FOR HARVEY FUNDS? WE ONLY HAD FOUR HARVEY COUNTIES TO START WITH, AND SO THOSE COUNTIES DON'T START, IT'S JUST ELIGIBLE FOR A DIFFERENT VARIETY OF WIDER RANGE.

SO WE'RE STILL WAITING ON GL TO, BUT, UM, THAT'S COMING.

SO, AND THE GOOD NEWS IS, IS THAT I THINK OUR COUNTY'S VERY PREPARED AND YOUR PROJECTS READY TO GO FOR IT.

THANK YOU MAYOR DENNIS.

UH, THANKS FOR YOUR, FOR YOUR POOR DIANE ON THE, UH, ISSUE OF HAVING THE, UH, GETTING RID OF, I MEAN BEING ABLE TO HIRE PEOPLE WITHOUT THE THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE.

DO YOU HAVE SOMEONE TO CARRY THAT BILL OR SPONSOR IT? OH, WE DON'T NEED IT.

IT IS, UH, THEY CAN DO IT.

THEY'RE GONNA DO IT BY GROUP.

OKAY.

UH, SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THERE HAVE BEEN, THEY TAKING ACTION.

I THINK MOST OF US AROUND THE STATE.

CAUSE IT'S NOT A PROBLEM YOU NEED TO US, IT'S VERY WIDESPREAD.

IN FACT, OUR, AND SO THE AGENCY HAS RECOGNIZED THAT BOARD.

MOST OF US WISH THEY MOVE FORWARD MORE QUICKLY.

UH, BUT AT LEAST THEY ARE HOPEFULLY TAKING ACTION.

ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU.

WE SHOULD BE SEEING THANK YOU.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, DON'T HESITATE TO ASK.

THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU DIANE.

ITEM

[12. Consider and act upon the recommendation to approve the 3rd Quarter 2022 financial report. - Jenise Diaz/Julio Elizondo A. Dashboard B. Balance Sheet C. Revenue and Expenditures D. Administrative Budgets E. Quarterly Investment Report]

SO WE'LL GO OVER OUR TWO FINANCIAL, UH, TWO FINANCIAL, UH, STATEMENTS THAT WE PRESENT TO YOU ON A MONTHLY BASIS.

WE DEVELOP SHEETS AND GO OVER THEM OVER THE NEXT FEW SLIDES IN A LITTLE MORE DETAIL.

OUR FINANCIAL DASHBOARD, AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, WE PRODUCE THIS ON A MONTHLY BASIS FOR YOU TO VISUALIZE.

IS THERE PLENTY OF METRICS HERE? TO KINDA, AGAIN, PUT NUMBERS, PERSPECTIVE, UH, THE TWO METRICS THAT I LIKE TO FOCUS ON ARE THE AC ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE WITHOUT PROVIDE RIGHTS AND THE PERCENTAGE EARNED AND SPENT AT THE TOP LEFT.

AS YOU CAN SEE AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER, WE ARE AT ABOUT 9.6 MILLION.

WE HAVE BEEN HOVERING AROUND THAT MARK OUR YEARS LONG AS WE MOED EARLIER IN PAST PRESENTATIONS OR UPDATES TO YOU ALL.

OUR BUDGET HAS GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY OVER THE YEARS.

AGAIN, THIS IS A PRETTY, UH, WE SEE AS A PRETTY NORMAL AR

[00:20:01]

UM, AND I'LL GO OVER THE DETAIL AS TO WHAT KIND OF MIX UP THE OPEN AR BALANCES THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE, THE PERCENTAGE EARNED.

AND UP AT THE TOP LEFT AT THE END OF THE THIRD ORDER, WE'RE 70% ON THE EXPENDITURE SIDE.

UH, AGAIN, THIS IS, THIS IS A GOOD POSITION TO BE IN OVERALL FOR THE AGENCY.

AT THE END OF THREE QUARTERS, TYPICALLY YOU WANNA BETTER, BUT, UM, THIS IS ASKING, UH, WITH A COUPLES OVERPERFORMING AS WELL AS SOME THAT ARE UNDERPERFORMING.

AND AGAIN, I'LL GET TO THOSE OVER THE NEXT FEW SLIDES IN MORE DETAIL.

HERE.

WE HAVE A OF SHEETS AT THE OF SEPTEMBER.

WE'RE CURRENTLY THAT 1 MILLION ASSETS.

IT'S A SLIGHT INCREASE FROM OUR SEPTEMBER OF A A YEAR AGO.

SOME SLIGHT INCREASE IN OUR AR AS WELL AS FIXED ASSETS AS WELL.

OUR FUND BALANCE, BOTH UNRESTRICTED AND RESTRICTED.

AND UP BY FOR, WE DO HAVE A COMPARISON FOR A AS WELL AS IT WAS AS AT THE END OF A YEAR AGO.

AT THE SAME TIME.

UH, WE ARE CURRENTLY SITTING AT ABOUT SIX POINTS, 7 MILLION.

UH, WE WERE AT ABOUT SIX POINTS NINE A YEAR AGO.

AGAIN, AS DIANE MENTIONED, WE HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF PROGRAMS THAT HAS TO HAVE, UH, HAVE THE USE OR USE SOME RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED, UM, FUND BALANCE IN ORDER TO OPERATE THEIR PROGRAMS. INVESTMENTS AT ENDS.

BILLION, OUR CDS ARE IN LINE WHERE THEY WERE A YEAR WITH, AND OUR CASH IS SLIGHTLY DOWN A YEAR.

OUR SUMMARY SUMMARIZED, SUMMARIZES IT ALL UP FOR YOU.

UH, THIS IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE PUBLIC'S INVESTMENT ACT AND WE HAVE ALL OF OUR MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT POOLS AND CDS ALONG WITH THEIR RATES THAT WE HAVE AT THE, AND YOU SEE, AS I MENTIONED, WE DO SOME INTEREST OF 23,000 WITH, UH, AT THREE OUR AR.

UM, IMPORTANT, VERY IMPORTANT SLIDE.

UH, THIS KIND OF PUTS INTO PERSPECTIVE WHERE WE STAND OUR, OUR LARGER OPEN BALANCES.

STARTING AT THE VERY TOP.

YOU CAN SEE OUR VA PROGRAM HAS OUR LARGEST BALANCE CURRENTLY AT 1.9 MILLION.

UH, WE'VE SAID THE VETERANS PROGRAM HAS EXPLODED.

AND SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, YOU KNOW, OUR RECEIVER WAS IN A PASSAGE TO BE 500,000 AND THEY'RE CLOSER TO 2 MILLION NOW, UH, WITH THE DA.

SO THIS IS A VERY GOOD THING.

THAT'S, AND CURRENTLY IN THE CURRENT STATUS, UH, MOVING DOWN TO HHSC, BOTH BEAR AND ALAMO IS KIND OF THE SAME STORY.

UH, ABOUT BACK IN APRIL, MAY TIMEFRAME, WE DID LOSE OUR ACCOUNTANT TO WHAT WE SAW, THE AG PROGRAMS. UH, WHAT WE SAW WAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCREASE CAPACITY AND SO, OR BUILD CAPACITY.

SO WE, WE TRANSITIONED THAT TO WHERE IT'S NOT JUST ONE ACCOUNTANT OVERSEEING THAT AGING DEPARTMENT.

IT'S TWO SPOKEN UP NOW TO TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTANTS.

WITH THAT BEING SAID, THEY DID IDENTIFY SEVERAL AREAS THAT HAD SMALL ISSUES.

UH, THE DIS HIGH CAP THAT YOU HAVE SEEN NOTED THERE.

UH, WE DID RECEIVE SOME GOOD USE LAST WEEK.

UH, HS DID PROVE THAT.

SO FOR THOSE DIS THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY DIS IN THE YEAR.

AND THEN THE NUTRITION AND TRANSPORTATION IS CURRENTLY SITTING AT HHS DESK.

UH, ISSUE WITH US BEING PAID THAT OUT.

CSEC IS THE OTHER BIG, UH, OVER 90 DAY BALANCE OF 668,000.

THAT'S 9 1 1.

UM, SO YOU CAN SEE WE'VE HAD A COUPLE OF ISSUES THERE IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS.

ONE OF THEM WAS DUE TO AN AMENDMENT THAT WAS SPENDING, UH, FOR ABOUT 42,000.

AGAIN, WE SEE NO ISSUE RECEIVING PAYMENT FOR THAT.

UH, AND THEN THE OTHER IS, UM, BACK EQUIPMENT THAT THEY PURCHASED PUBLIC AND CS IS CURRENTLY HAVING A PERMISSION MEETING THE WEBBER TO DECIDE OR TO APPROVE THIS.

SO WE HAVE CURRENT, WE'LL, WE'LL BE WAITING UNTIL THEY APPROVE IT 10 NOVEMBER TO SEE, UH, WHETHER OR NOT THAT'S GONNA GO FORWARD WITH OUR MEETING THAT WE JUST HAVE WITH THE CCC STAFF YESTERDAY.

THERE'S, THERE'S NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THAT'S NOT GONNA BE APPROVED.

SO THEY HAVE EVERY, UH, THEY FEEL THAT IT'S GONNA BE APPROVED NEXT MONTH.

SO OUR STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER, UH, YOU CAN SEE THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY SITTING AT A DEFICIT.

UM, AGAIN, AS MENTIONED, THERE ARE SEVERAL REASONS BEHIND THAT.

UH, THE FACTOR OR THE HERE IS IN COMPARISON TO WE YEAR TO BUDGET IS, AGAIN, IT'S, IT'S, WE'VE PASSED SOME QUARTERS TO THAT TO PERFORM AND I FIGURE I'LL TWO THE, OUR GENERAL FUND AND ADMINISTRATION.

UH, WE ARE CURRENTLY 27,000

[00:25:01]

SO WE DO HAVE A CONTRACT WITH SHIRTS, EMS, THE I DSA.

THE BUDGETED AMOUNT WAS AROUND 40,000, WHICH WON'T BE BUDGETED.

THE ACTUAL CONTRACT AMOUNT HAS BEEN 5,000.

SO THAT IS A, A VARIANCE THERE THAT BEEN CAUSED ALL YEAR LONG.

UH, YOU'LL CONTINUE TO SEE THAT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

THE GOOD THING IS, JOHN, THAT FROM 23 BUDGET.

SO WE'RE JUST GONNA SHOW THAT.

UM, OVERAGE AND VARIS FOR THE THE OF THE YEAR IN ALAMO AGING.

WE ARE CURRENTLY 500 DEALING THOUSAND BELOW BUDGET.

AGAIN, AS I MENTIONED, UM, WE HAVE KIND UNDERPERFORMED IN, IN, IN TWO AREAS.

SPECIFICALLY NUTRITION AND INCOME SUPPORT.

WELLNESS TEAM HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT ABOUT 5,000 OF THAT IS GONNA BE BY BUDGET.

BUT AGAIN, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT WE'VE HAD ALL YEAR LONG.

SO THERE'S NOTHING YOU HEAR BEFORE.

BEAR AGING, VERY SIMILAR STORY.

WE'RE 1.5 MILLION BELOW BUDGET ON THE EXPENDITURE SITE.

AGAIN, NUTRITION FOR ABOUT A MILLION DOLLARS DO THAT.

ART, UH, AS DIANE MENTIONED, AGAIN, WE ARE BELOW BUDGET THREE 5K AND, AND AS CAUSED THAT DEFICIT CURRENCY.

UH, SHE DID MENTION THAT WE HAVE THAT EXCESS CARES AND APA FUNDING EARLIER IN THE YEAR.

UH, WHAT WE'RE DOING NOW IS KIND OF USING SOME OF THAT FUNDING TOSS AT SOME OF THE COSTS THAT WE'VE SEEING.

UH, WE ALSO PURCHASED, UM, 350,000 WORTH OF BUSES IN MARCH USING UNRESTRICTED FUNDS.

AND OUR FY TRADITIONAL FY 23 TRADITIONAL FUNDING WAS STATED TO THE END OF SEPTEMBER.

MANAGEMENT HAS DECIDED TO DEFER THAT TO NOVEMBER TIMEFRAME, UH, TO HELP, HELP OFFSET SOME OF THOSE INCREASED COSTS IN THE BUDGET.

YOU'LL SEE IN THAT MILITARY AND VETERANS AFFAIRS, AGAIN, THIS IS A VERY GOOD STORY.

TWO 8 MILLION BUDGETING THAT HUGE BECAUSE OF THE VETERANS DIRECTOR PROGRAM.

THIS HAS HELPED, UM, OR THIS HAS HELPED FUND SOME OF THOSE, UH, ADDITIONAL GRANTS OR PROGRAMS THAT, UH, WE LOST FUNDING FOR DUE TO OUR 20, OUR FINDINGS BACK IN 2020.

BUT AGAIN, IS A GOOD STORY TO TO BE SITTING AS WELL AS ENVIRONMENT CONSERVATION.

THEY CURRENTLY 70,000 BELOW BUDGET ON THE EXPENDITURES THEY'VE HAD, UM, RESTRUCTURING IN THAT, IN THAT PROGRAM.

AND SO THAT'S AWESOME.

SAVINGS IN THEIR PERSONNEL LINE ITEMS. THOSE SAVINGS WILL BE PURPOSE OR REPROGRAMED YOU USE AS ADDITIONAL TO, ID CURRENTLY SENDING SEVEN 62,000 BELOW BUDGET, WHICH HAS CAUSED THAT DEFICIT YEAR TO DATE OF SEVEN 86,000.

AGAIN, AS WE MENTIONED FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS.

NOW THAT SHORTENING THOSE HALF AGENCIES THAT WE'VE HAD, I PLAY A MAJOR OR SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN THEM PRODUCING OR THEIR MEDICAID AS WELL AS THEIR SERVICES.

UM, THEY DID HAVE PAID OUT APPROXIMATELY TWO AND SIGN BONUS THROUGH THE END OF NATURAL RESOURCES IS CURRENTLY 36,000 BELOW BUDGET.

UH, THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE T GRANT.

THEY, THE MONITORING CONTRACTS DID NOT START AS EXPECTED, BUT PROGRAM DOES ANTICIPATE SPENDING MONTHS.

SERVICES CURRENTLY 20,000 UNDER BUDGET DUE TO TWO REASONS IN PARTICULAR, EDDA CARES.

THE ED EDA GRANTS IS, UH, FORWARD A SLIGHT BALANCE OR CARRIED FORWARD OF UH, I THINK IT WAS OFF 20,000 INTO THEIR F 23 BUDGET AND THEN ON ADA CARES THAT GRANT DOES AT THE END OF THIS MONTH.

AND THEY'RE SLIGHTLY BEHIND, BUT THEY HAVE NO, THEY SEE FORESEE NO ISSUES IN EXPENDING ALL THOSE, ALL THOSE FUNDS.

THE, AND OUR ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGETS $5 MILLION A YEAR TO DATES ON THE ACTUAL SIDE.

IT'S UH, 5S UNDER OUR BUDGET.

OVER OUR BUDGET.

UH, WE ARE PROJECTING A CARRY FORWARD WITH OUR ADMINISTRATIVE, UM, CARRYOVER, WHICH IS A GREAT THING BECAUSE AS NEXT PRESENTATION JOHN WILL BE SHOWING YOU ALL, HOW'S THAT COMPLETING OUR PRESENTATION IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, ANY BUDGET QUESTIONS? WHAT WERE THE BUSES FOR? I'M SORRY? THE BUSES, THE EXTRA BUSES THAT WERE BROUGHT, WHAT ARE THEY FOR? BUSES, WE, WE DO A REGULAR REFRESH CUZ WE HAVE ABOUT 80, UH, VEHICLES, UHHUH THAT RUN ALL THE TIME.

SO WE TRY TO DO A NORMAL REFRESH TO KEEP THEM CURRENT.

UH, AND THEY WORK FOR A SPECIFIC PROGRAM, NOT FOR NO.

CAUSE THEY'RE USED.

WELL, THEY'RE USED, THEY'RE USED OUTSIDE BEAR COUNTY FOR ALL OF OUR DEMAND

[00:30:01]

OKAY, SO, BUT SINCE THEY'RE BACK LOGGED AND YOU CAN'T GET 'EM, WE GRABBED THEM.

GOOD.

ANY OTHER QUESTION? HEARING NONE.

I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE THE THIRD QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL REPORT.

NO MOTION BY AMERICAN TERRAS.

SECOND BY, UH, JUDGE EVANS.

ANY DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE.

ALL IN FAVOR? ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU.

THAT'S GENERALLY GOING TO BE FUNDED BY MEMBERSHIP DUES, EMS, I, GSA A FEES, THINGS THAT NATURE AND THE TIGHT COMPLEX, WHO GENERALLY IS SITTING ON THE VERY RIGHT, THAT WOULD GENERALLY BE ROLLED UP INTO THE GENERAL FUND, BUT WE SEPARATE IT OUT.

JUST WE DON'T WANT GETTING MIXED UP IN THAT GENERAL FUND NUMBER.

WE, FOR PRESENTATION PURPOSES, THOSE ARE SITTING AT 3 MILLION FOR, AND THAT'S FUNDED BY A PROGRAM, PROVIDE A SHARE OF EXPENSES AND THIRD PARTY TENANT A LITTLE BIT DEEPER INTO THE ROLE OF ACTUALLY, SO STARTING ON THE CALL, THE PROGRAM, OUR BEGINNING FUND BALANCE FOR, FOR 2023 YEARS PROJECTED TO THE 5 MILLION, OUR TOTAL REVENUE SITTING AT 70.3 MILLION AND OUR EXPENDITURES AND INDIRECT ARE ABOUT 70.3 MILLION AS WELL FOR THAT REVENUE AND EXPENDITURES, 31,000 MOVING OVER ONE COLUMN TO THE ADMIN DIRECT, LIKE MENTIONED EARLIER, WE'RE GONNA, WE'RE PROJECTED TO CARRY FOR ABOUT 3 22 AND THAT'S GONNA SERVE AS YOU SEE RIGHT THERE.

WE HAVE TOTAL EXPENDITURES OF 5.3 MILLION IN RECOVERIES FOR OF APPROXIMATELY 5 MILLION.

AND THAT WOULD BE A DEFICIT OF 80.

SO ONCE WE TAKES A CHERRY FORWARD AND THEN AGAINST, THAT'S GOING BE ATTENDING, MOVING OVER TO THE GENERAL FUND, UM, THAT NUMBER IS SITTING AT 23 POINT NINES.

ONE THING I DO WANNA NOTE ABOUT THAT NUMBER IS THAT IT DOES INCLUDE OUR INVESTMENTS IN CAPITAL ASSETS.

SO THAT'S, ANY CAPITAL ASSETS THAT WE OWN INCLUDE THE BUILDING.

SO THAT NUMBER IS BIGGER THAN EXPECTED, SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND.

UM, THEN WE MOVING DOWN, WE HAVE OUR TOTAL REVENUES OF 3 MILLION AND TOTAL EXPENDITURES OF 0.1 MILLION FOR NET REVENUE EXPI.

AND MOVING OVER TO THE SECOND TO LAST COLUMN FOR THE, OUR TOTAL REVENUES, 5 MILLION TOTAL EXPENDITURES, EXPENDITURES MOVING OVER TO OUR FUND BALANCES.

SO WHAT THIS IS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A BRIDGE BETWEEN FUND FUND BALANCE IS SITTING US AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER AND THEN WE'RE NEXT YEAR.

SO, UH, SO OUR FUND BALANCE IS SITTING AT 30 MILLION.

WE'RE PROTECTING

[00:35:01]

LIKE DIANA JULIO SAID, MAINLY IN OUR UM, THEY DIDN'T TOUCH ON PUBLIC THEIR SAFETY.

MAINLY WHAT THAT'S GONNA BE IS A LOT OF THE PROGRAMING THAT THEY'VE, WE DON'T THAT FOR LINE, WE HAVE TO REINVEST IT IN.

SO THEY'RE USING SOME OF THAT FUNDING IN THE FOREST QUARTER.

UH, AND OUR ENDING FUND BALANCE AT THE END OF 22 IS GOING TO BE ABOUT 20.9 MILLION.

MOVING OVER TO OUR THREE CHANGES, THAT'S GONNA BE BOTTOM LINE CHANGE OF 82,000.

ONE NUMBER THAT MIGHT POP OUT HERE, UM, IS A 99,000 DEFICIT OR SO.

AS YOU BROUGHT THE BUDGET, WE ACTUALLY, RIGHT'S NUMBER IS GREAT TO THAT NUMBER IS OUR VETERANS, NO TEXAS VETERAN NETWORK.

SORRY, OUR TEXAS VETERANS NETWORK IS NOT OUT FOR APPLICATION UNTIL SOME POINT IN THE FOURTH QUARTER IN DECEMBER.

AND SO AT THIS TIME WE DO HAVE IT BUDGETED AS IF WE ARE FUNDING THAT OUT FUND BALANCE IN 2023.

HOWEVER, IF WE DO THAT, WHEN WE DO THAT APPLICATION AND THAT DOES COMING, WE'LL IMAGINE IT GOOD.

NOW I'LL GO THROUGH SOME OF THE ASSUMPTIONS THAT WE USE IN DIRECTORY IS SITTING AT POINT PERCENT, UH, THAT'S FROM THREE, WHOEVER IN THE BUDGET.

WE DO AT TREND ANALYSIS AND HISTORICAL DATA, WHICH IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE EVALUATING BUDGETS, MAKE SURE WE DON'T MISS ANYTHING.

AND WE DO TAKE ACCOUNT THE APPROVED AMENDMENTS THAT ARE BROUGHT TO THE BOARD DURING THE OF THE YEAR IS BUDGETED 3%.

WHEN I, THIS POWERPOINT SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION WAS PROJECTED ABOUT 8.2.

SO THAT NUMBER ACTUALLY CAME IN AT 8.7%.

THE REASON WE DIDN'T USE THAT DESPITE A POLICY SAYING IT IS USE, IT WOULD BE TOO MUCH OF A BURDENS AND WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS.

SO THAT'S WHY WE BUDGET AT 30%.

MOVING OVER TO INSURANCE RATES.

UM, OUR INSURANCE ALSO REFLECTED IN THEC RATE THAT'S CURRENTLY SITTING AT 33% BELOW.

YOU SEE INTERPRET VISUALIZATION OF WHAT THAT THOSE INCREASES HAVE LOOKED LIKE OVER THE LAST EIGHT YEARS.

SO THAT'S BEEN AN AVERAGE INCREASE OF ABOUT 3.5%.

AND IN 2023 IS SITTING AT 6.4.

WHENEVER WE PREPARE THE GUIDANCE, WE HAD BEEN PULLED BY OUR INSURANCE AGENCY PREPARE FOR A 60% INCREASE.

IT ADD ACTUALLY DOING A WHOLE LOT LOWER.

SO WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW IS REEVALUATING THE RATE AND SEE IF IT NEEDS TO COME DOWN TO 31 OR 32% OR IF IT'S GONNA CHANGE IT.

IF IT DOES COME DOWN, WE'RE GONNA TO COME TO PROGRAMS BECAUSE THAT'S GONNA MEAN IT'S MORE MONEY THAT THEY COULD PUT PROGRAMMATIC.

THIS IS A HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW OF WHAT THE BUDGET LOOKS LIKE FOR PROGRAMS. UH, WE'RE LOOKING AT 70.3 MILLION.

THE REVENUES 70.3 IS OUR MANAGERS, THAT REVENUE MANAGER $31,000.

AND I'M GONNA WALK DOWN EACH INDIVIDUAL FOLDER.

NOW, UH, STARTING WITH OUR, OUR 2022 BUDGET IS CURRENTLY SITTING AT OUR 2022.

BUDGET IS SITTING AT THAT 0.6 MILLION IN OUR 23 BUDGET IS AT 8.3.

THE MAIN REASON FOR THAT DECREASE IS WHAT WE TALKED EARLIER OR MS. RA MENTIONED EARLIER ABOUT THE BUS GRANTS THAT WE HAD ABOUT A 0.2 MILLION GRANT.

SO THERE'S OTHER LOADS BUT THAT'S GOING TO BE THE MAJOR REASON FOR THAT DECREASE.

AND OF THE INITIATIVES BUDGET THAT MATCHING EXPENSES AND REVENUE.

SO MAINTAINING AND GROW ALL THE BUDGET IS MILLION AND THE BUDGET IS MILLION.

NOW AS THEY MENTIONED, THERE IS GOING BE A CARRYOVER, BUT THERE ARE OTHER PROGRAMS THAT ARE OFF.

UH, WE'VE GOT SOME'S FUNDING THAT WE HAVE THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE NEXT YEAR.

S SO THAT'S ALSO DECREASING THAT NUMBER.

UM, AND THERE'S GONNA FEW TO DEVELOP HEALTH AND PROGRAMS TO OUTREACH THROUGHOUT THERE.

18 OR 20 28, 2 IS $14.

20, 23 BUDGET IS SPOKE FOR MILLION.

UM, I'M NOT SURE IF THEY MENTIONED THAT THEY DID.

SO IN WE HAVE A 1 MILLION CARRYOVER AND THEN WE HAVE SOME S THERE ARE ABOVE, I MEAN, CARES ARE ABOVE VACCINE EAP.

SO THOSE ARE ALL PROGRAMS THAT ARE NEXT YEAR.

AND UM, IN ADDITION TO THE INITIATIVES THAT THEY HAVE OUT THERE, THEY'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON IMPROVING THEIR CORE COMPETENCIES, WORKING WITH

[00:40:01]

WEATHERIZATION, OUR BUDGET IS 2.3 MILLION AND OUR THREE BUDGET IS TWO POINT MILLION.

THE MAIN REASON FOR THAT DECREASE IS GENERALLY WHEN WE PREPARE OUR BUDGETS.

WE BUDGET FOR THE AMY RESERVATION PLAN IN 23.

WE DID A BUDGET FOR IT.

CAUSE AS WE SAID RIGHT NOW, I DON'T THINK WE RECEIVED IT YET.

SO IF IT COMES IN AND WHEN IT WE'LL BRING IT APPROVED, THAT'S, AND THEY WILL FOCUS ON AN INCREASED EMPHASIS IN ACCESSIBILITY NOTIFICATION PROGRAMS TO INCREASE FUND BALANCE.

IDD.

OUR A TWO IS 16.2 MILLION AND OUR THREE BUDGET IS 16.6 MILLION.

THE MAIN REASON THAT INCREASE IS JUST GOING BE INCREASE, UH, PASS OUR REVENUES AND ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS. THEY'VE ADDED A FEW PROGRAMS TO THE TABLE THERE.

COMPLETE MAXIMIZE UTILIZATION, TARGETED CASE MANAGEMENT THROUGH MEDICAID FEE FROM SERVICE REVENUE STREAMS. AND ONE THING I SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED EARLIER, SORRY, IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER IN YOURS, I PREPARED, UM, DOCUMENT THAT YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THIS AND MORE.

SO WHENEVER IT TALKS ABOUT THE REFERENCE PAGE, UM, YOU CAN REFERENCE IT AND SEE ALL THIS IN DETAIL.

AND THEN THE ONE THAT SAYS SS, THAT'S BE THE SPREADSHEET.

SO THAT'S ACTUALLY MOVING TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION.

OUR BUDGET IS THREE 83,000 AND OUR THREE BUDGET IS 76,000.

THAT'S PRETTY STEADY.

AND THEY'RE GOING TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE REGARDING REGIONAL TRENDS, SOLUTIONS, SHARING RESOURCES GOING OVER INTERNATIONAL RESOURCES OF BUDGET IS 7 12 3.

BUDGET IS ABOUT A MILLION AND I THINK WE HAVE A COUPLE ADDITIONALS THAT ARE THERE AND THAT'S WHAT'S IMPACTING THAT.

AND THEY EVALUATE THE IMPACT OF USING, USING OZONE PROTECTION SOFTWARE.

AMONG OTHER THINGS, PUBLIC SAFETY.

THEY'RE SITTING AT 7,000,003, THEY'RE SITTING AT 5 MILLION.

AND THE MAIN REASON FOR THAT IS GOING BE A COUPLE ADDITIONAL GRANTS WITHIN IS GOING BE THE TARGET RANGE GRANT IN OTHERS.

UH, AND THEY'RE GOING WORKABILITY TOWER PROJECT TO PUMP FUNDING TO ENSURE TIMELY RECEIPT OF EQUIPMENT AND CLOSE OUT PROJECT IN REGIONAL SERVICES.

UM, THE BUDGET SITTING AT 3000 BUDGET, THE MAIN REASON FOR THAT INCREASE IS GOING BE THE, THAT IS DROPPING OFF.

THAT WAS THE SIZE FOR BUDGET FOR REGIONAL SERVICES.

SO THAT'S THERE AND THEY'LL CONTINUE TO REGIONAL.

AND THREE IS SITTING 18, 2 MILLION.

SO THAT'S GENERALLY, SO THAT'S BECAUSE WE ARE FUNDING THINGS OUT FUND BALANCE.

AND SO WHENEVER WE FUND ITEMS OUT OF FUND BALANCE, IT COMES OUT A CONCERT REALLY.

AND SO THAT'S WHY IT SHOWING THIS WAY.

SO GENERALLY WE'RE EXPECTING TO A PRETTY STEADY, WE'RE NOT PROJECTING A MASSIVE INCREASE AT THIS.

WE'RE PROJECTING STEADY.

SO THAT'S THAT.

UH, THEY'RE, THEY'RE TO EXTEND VDC TO ADDITIONAL FAMILIES NEED TO THAT OUR, OUR ADMIN BUDGET SUMMARY OUR IS AT AND OUR BUDGET IS MILLION INCREASE BUDGET IS 0.6 MILLIONS, GRADE T1, MILLIONS AS DIFFERENCE.

I FINALLY WILL CONTINUE TO CROSS, UH, CONTINUE TO IT PROCESSES AND WORK TO EFFICIENCIES THE DEPARTMENT WHILE MAINTAINING STRONG TERM CONTROLS.

AGENCY MANAGEMENT 20 BUDGET IS FIVE 69,000 AND OUR THREE BUDGET IS 33,000.

UM, THE AGENCY MANAGEMENT BUDGET HAS RA SALARY.

IT MAINTAINS PART OF THE QC FOR THE AGENCY.

OUR PLEDGE RICE OFFICER OFFICERS.

AND SO THERE'S A FEW SALARIES GO IN THERE.

UM, AND THEY'LL HAVE SEVERAL PROGRAMS LAUNCHING.

THEY'LL BE GONE.

OTHER THINGS.

OUR SALARIES, A AGENCY

[00:45:01]

IM THAT THEY'RE WORKING WITH A TO APPROVE THIS PROCEDURE.

INVOICING OR GENERAL 20 BUDGET IS INCREASE LAST YEAR.

GENERAL COUNCIL BUDGET IS AND OUR BUDGET IS 66.

THE MAIN REASON FOR THIS IS MORE OUR GENERAL COUNSEL IS PUTTING PORTION, PORTION OF THIS TIME.

SO WHAT IS IT YOU OR AND THE OF NOT AT ALL NECESSARY LEGAL SERVICES FOR THE AGENCY.

HUMAN RESOURCES ARE TWO IS $506,000 AND OUR TO THREE BUDGET $602,000.

AND THAT IS ED.

THE ADDITION OF A FULL TIME EMPLOYEE AND SOME INCREASES IN SALARIES, TRAVEL, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THESE BUDGETS HOPEFULLY WE'RE FOR THINGS AND THERE WERE ARRANGE MANAGEMENT WITH THE FOCUS ON BUILDING LEADERS FOR MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.

OUR BUDGET IS 2 MILLION.

BUDGET IS 0.4 MILLION.

SO THAT INCREASES MAINLY DUE TO A INITIATIVES THAT WE'RE BRINGING ON TO OUR OFFICE.

THREE FIVE MIGRATION.

UM, THAT'S GONNA ALLOW US TO REALLY BRING A LOT FOR A LOT OF OUR SECURITY CENTERS UP, UM, TO WHERE THEY NEED TO BE.

AND IT'S ALSO GONNA ALLOW US TO GET, UH, MORE MODERN SOFTWARE, I GUESS I SHOULD SAY.

THE OTHER THING IS THAT GOES THIS NUMBER IS A LOT OF MAINFRAME ADJUSTMENTS AND MEMORY BACKUP, THINGS LIKE THAT THAT JUST NEED TO HAPPEN EVERY OFTEN.

AND SO THAT'S WHAT'S CAUSING THOSE COSTS TO BE HIGHER THAN USUAL DISTRICT EXTERNAL AFFAIRS AND COMMUNICATIONS OR 20 IS $2,000.

OUR BUDGET IS 30.

THERE'S ADDITIONAL PARTTIME, THERE'S PROGRAMS PURCHASING.

OUR IS 80,000 AND OUR IS 3S OR FORECAST.

IT'S ABOUT A 29,000, UH, BOTTOM LINE ADDITION IT THROUGH WE'RE EDITION.

AND HERE WE HAVE THE, SO CURRENTLY OUR EXPENDITURES FOR ARE OUR FORECAST MILLION YEARS.

THREE BUDGET IS 2.3 MILLION.

UM, THE MAIN REASON ALSO, THERE'S A COUPLE THINGS THAT GO INTO THIS.

THERE'S OUR CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, OPERATING EXPENDITURES INTEREST ON OUR NOTE.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A COUPLE, OUR INTEREST IS AN ON THAT, WHAT WE DO AS AN AGENCY, WE COVER OUR PRO OUT A SHARE OF THAT.

SO THAT'S AT ABOUT FOUR 40,000 AND WE RECOVER 50% OF THAT.

I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT, UH, THAT WE HAVE BUDGETED IN THE EXPENSES.

CUZ AS YOU ALL RECALL, WE DO HAVE A PENDING LAWSUIT AGAINST THE PRIOR OWNER THAT'S SCHEDULED FOR TRIAL IN MAY.

UH, WE ANTICIPATE GOING TO MEDIATION BEFORE THAT.

SO WE HAVE BUDGETED IN THE EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE BUILDING, BUT WE HAVE NOT B BUDGETED ANY RECOVERY FROM LITIGATION.

UH, THE PRIOR OWNER'S PATTERN IS THAT HE SETTLES RIGHT BEFORE COURT.

AND WE FEEL, AND, AND CLIFF CAN TALK TO IT MUCH MORE DETAIL, BUT WE FEEL THAT WE HAVE A VERY VALID CASE, BUT WE HAVE NOT BUDGETED ANY RECOVERY HERE.

OF COURSE, WHEN WE PURCHASED THE BUILDING, WE DIDN'T COUNT ON COVID AND NOT HAVING SPACE OCCUPIED AS SUCH.

UH, WE CONTINUE TO BE VERY REASSURED WITH THE FEEDBACK WE GET FROM PROSPECTS AND FROM OUR LEASING AGENT.

UH, AND WE'VE HAD SIGNIFICANTLY MORE EXPENSES THAN WE ANTICIPATED CAUSE OF THE LACK

[00:50:01]

UH, SO WE ARE CONTINUING TO, TO DO SOME OF THAT RESIDUAL AND DEFERRED MAINTENANCE THAT NEEDED TO OCCUR AND THAT WE DID NOT REALIZE.

ELEVATORS, IF YOU RECALL THE, THE AIR CONDITIONING WENT OUT THE DAY WE CLOSED ON THE BUILDING .

SO, UH, AND THE ELEVATORS ARE, WE KNEW WE WERE GONNA HAVE WORK.

WE DIDN'T REALIZE THEY WERE, THE WIRES WERE TRULY DISINTEGRATING.

UH, SO I THINK A LOT, LOT OF THAT.

AND CLIFF, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANNA ADD ANYTHING TO THAT.

NO, I THINK, I THINK YOU'VE COVERED IT.

I THINK WE'VE GOT, UH, EXCEPT I WILL SAY, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE PURCHASED THE BUILDING, I THINK JOHN WOULD SAY, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, JOHN, WE'RE STILL WITHIN PRETTY CLOSE TO THE PROJECTIONS AND WE PURCHASED, WHEN WE CONTEMPLATED PURCHASING THE BUILDING, WE'RE WITHIN PROJECTIONS.

AND AS YOU RECALL WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT BUYING THE BUILDING, THE ADVICE FROM OUR AGENTS WAS THAT IT WOULD TAKE THREE YEARS TO STABILIZE THE BUILDING.

SO WE'RE A YEAR AND A HALF OF THAT PROCESS, UH, SINCE WE PURCHASED THE BUILDING.

AND YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY WERE ADVISING US ON A THREE YEAR STABILIZATION, THAT WAS PRE COVID.

SO WE'VE HAD A LITTLE HICCUP WITH, WITH THE COVID DELAYS, BUT, UH, I'M STILL VERY OPTIMISTIC IN THE INTEREST.

AS DIANE SAYS, OUR AGENTS, UH, ARE GETTING TENANTS FOR US.

WE'RE IN THE RUNNING FOR SOME LARGE TENANTS.

AND, UH, I THINK, UH, ALL IN ALL THINGS ARE GOING AS PLANNED.

I WILL ALSO SAY THAT THE FEED BACK WE GET FROM OUR EXISTING TENANTS THAT WERE HERE, WE BOUGHT BUILDING IS VERY POSITIVE.
