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.

Mr. Chairman Mariano, one housekeeping matter that I didn't think about is since the Chair normally does appointments Are you planning on doing Send me a are you gonna wait until the next
Uh sending those out, the the normal ones.
Okay.
What they've had before. Oh and I guess on our
next meeting. So so if Commissioner Fitzpatrick will cover Commissioner We's appointments until a new list comes out, I guess is what I'm asking, in case there is a meeting before your list comes out. Well,
basically unless somebody wants to change from what they have and and I think most want to keep what they have. Right. And uh Commissioner Fitzpatrick. That's what she's gonna get stuck with is Commissioner Weightman. She's gonna get stuck with it except for one.
Okay.
But she's gonna take over one of mine. Okay. I just wanna make sure. She's already asked me if she could uh be on the commission for human trafficking. Okay. I've told her I would transfer that over to her and I wanted value adjustment board over to me. So we're swapping uh uh one. Other than that we keep the same ones. Okay.
I just wanted to make sure that
those boards that Commissioner Weightman had been going to if they have a meeting They're covered. We already had a in the the last
we're having it as between her and I on on that. Uh Mr. Starkey, you're staying on the right-of-way. Well thank you. Which one?
How about today?
Okay. That'd be fine. But I'll have my secretary reach out to you, send me the old list, I'll correct mine and and Commissioner Fitzpatrick's on ours. And I think we'll be good on ours, so But um is uh anything else.
But we'll take care of that right away. It'll be done within this week, so As far as I'm concerned. Appreciate it. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. And we now adjourn.
