US 19 tour and potholes
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

Say, um, Commissioner Moore, if yes, if you could allow me to grab a little time. Um, last week when my new assistant Derek um started we did a tour of some of my districts of US nineteen. And um I do want to say that we came upon Someone Passed out at the Wawa Bus stop. Um passed by it three or four times within an in an hour and he never moved. He was laying on the ground behind
the bus stop. I had called the sheriff's office 'Cause frankly I didn't know if he was alive or not. Um but they were very they were very busy with a a a suicide uh uh an attempted suicide call and then Apparently at my poor Wawa there, someone passed out in the car at the pump. Uh, so they did end up coming to the Wawa but my guy in the bus stop Outside of the bus stop has leaves on. Um Coming up nineteen at
um The old um Buddy Freddy's I think or uh I what's that restaurant that Ritz Fecus used to eat lunch at every day? Mike Wells will know. Um It was grad.
Bob Evans. Bob Evans.
The Bob Evans there were a group of um people who uh live outside I think and ride around on bike a lot in the district And Morgan Swear she watched one of um do some Some drug up their nose. It was a very disturbing drive for a morning. There were some other things too, but Um I'm hopeful that uh the gentleman who bought the holiday mall is
offering to give some space to the sheriff's office and to code enforcement. and um free space and and make I'm hoping that maybe a presence more of a presence in that area will help deal with some of the problems. But I did drive um um Mike Wells that that fishing store that's on nineteen that also sells gun ammunition. Do you know what what intersection that is? A
two or three story building.
No, armed anglers, I'm not sure what the road is.
Yeah. Um I think it might be sunray. Um I drove into the biggest potholes uh was in my car because it was underwater and there and so I'm hoping that staff I just sent Brandford an email, but if we're talking about pondhole That one's gotta get fixed right away because it's It's very heavily traveled. When it goes underwater frequently, that little corner there when when um the state Hey U S nineteen. Made
it higher. and there's a dip there and just falls apart all the time and the and the potholes you can't see 'em 'cause it's always underwater. So it's a real problem and I I may have done damage to my car on that one.
