File 2 of this meeting has Preble County Engineer Steve Simmons mentioning the license plate fee hearings that will take place next week. The Preble Development Partnership and Preble Chamber of Commerce will be endorsing this tax increase in the county. Both Lewisburg and Eaton have recently levied the tax to insure keeping the money for use in their communities instead of throughout the county. It is a wise decision by them as this tax will pass in large part because of the stacked deck against taxpayers by the rubber stamping of the Preble Development Board and Preble Chamber.  There is no argument that there are infrastructure needs in Preble County. There is however an argument about how much of the increased funding will ever be used for it. As an example Steve Simmons brought up health care costs and future pay increases as the subject of a future meeting. Simmons has previously given out pay raises to his department in defiance of written Commission request not to while other county departments honored the request.  Any tax increase passed by this commission should go into some sort of escrow account or fund to be used for infrastructure needs or it will be used to finance pay increases for a department that as recently as 2008 paved a grand total of zero miles.

The Landfill monthly meeting had tonnage reported as being down and leachate up, 1.114 million gallons in April alone. The department had budgeted for 4.7 million but through April was already at 3.7 million. Commissioner Wesler mention a letter recommending restarting the leachate line to Lakengren that had been put off after Camden had filed suit in Federal court. That case was recently dismissed but it was mentioned by Preble County Prosecutor Martin Votel that he had been told that Camden would re-file in state court. Hopefully an injunction is forth coming shortly. In the short term the county is checking into renting a tanker and hauling leachate to Lakengren at the contracted price for the force main that the county plans to build.

Also on the landfill issue was a discussion for the much discussed trip to a Kentucky “Waste to Energy” plant. This plant would be like the one proposed March 7 to the commissioners. It was proposed to be across the street from the landfill and close to the railroad. Some issues cropped up as the impression given by the company was that they would be building one in Richmond, Indiana for RP&L and would use the Preble plant as a failsafe if the RP&L plant needed to be shut down for whatever reason. According to Commissioner Dave Wesler it is not a done deal that this company has any agreement with RP&L. This raised obvious questions that were voiced by Commissioner Stonecash.

File 12 has a lengthy discussion on the previously mentioned Commissioner Charity Ball/Gala. A good bit of this meeting was transcribed but not all of it due to the length. If you have time and want to be fully informed please listen to it. There were some recurring poor audio issues with poor volume.  Apparently some elected and nonelected officials have voiced concern on this Ball/Gala.  The Commissioners address many of those concerns. My concern goes back to the April 4 meeting and File 5; at the 56 minute mark Commissioner Wesler mentions running the money through a nonprofit and not being subject “audit”.  It is very common to run these types of functions through nonprofits to enable people a tax deduction. It is far rarer for a three term County Commissioner to have made a misstatement and mention avoiding “audit” as a reason. The idea of a charity is a good one but that comment raises a red flag and should demand some accountability.

Also of concern on this issue is the practice of this Commission to make use of the Preble County Economic Development Director as a party organizer/ gopher for this event. I don’t care whether she wants to do it or not. This only falls under the broadest use of a job description with regard to what county taxpayers were told she was hired for. No where do I ever recall it mentioned that the hiring of a Preble County Economic Development Director would also function as a Commission party organizer.

Dave mentions Jacob Zimmerman of trash to energy project in Kentucky. Commissioners have not yet gone and currently thinking June. May fly down.

June 7, Partnership meeting at 4:00.

CCAO on Friday the 10.

June 17 given as current possibility.

Commissioner Wesler mentions a meeting with City of Richmond officials about trash to energy. Trash will be hauled in from east coast in bales on rail. Discussion on RST (Kentucky company). RST not a lock at Richmond

Commissioner Stonecash – What were they indicating that were from Montgomery County and over here and ours would be taking some of their excess. I guess I am confused here. Bob is right, the way it appeared to be told to the Preble County Commissioners back on March 7 left the impression that this company would be doing the Richmond RP&L facility. This cannot help but call into question the rest of the claims made that day. They wanted to be next to the railroad across from the landfill. This could mean that they have plans to have trash from further away than Montgomery County brought in.

Hoping to raise $12,000 – $15,000.

Commissioner Stonecash – Well I guess my thought, I've talked to a lot of officials and either it is going to be an elected official's affair or it is going to be a commissioner's deal.  If it is then we do the planning and their invited they can come fine, if they can't come fine. If we are going to do the other then they should be part of the process. So far as I mentioned to you on the commissioners thing – ball – gala, you've given us dates, you've given us a band other than other planning or having a prepared planning program or plan evidently it has been you and Connie and Shawnda.

Commissioner Wesler – Pretty much.

Commissioner Stonecash – I guess if you want us to be participants, you better clue us in on every detail there is; I want to know how much it is going to cost, I want to know what the projected proceeds are,

Commissioner Wesler – I'll be more than happy enough to do that right now because I am going to tell you just like you on the Goose Creek Crossing, I don't get into your stuff when you have your committee meetings but you update us after you talk through stuff right?

Commissioner Day – hmhm (affirmative)

Commissioner Wesler – That is what I am telling you, start writing. $300

Talking over each other occurring and hard to make out what is being said.

Commissioner Wesler – It is not done yet

Commissioner Stonecash – planning project. How many tickets do I think I can sell at how much, what the place is costing me?

Commissioner Wesler – Let's make that decision right now. The rental for the place will be $300 is that right Connie? The meal is yet to be determined and I just got a new meal update today. Did you get that message Connie?

Connie – No

Commissioner Wesler – It is on your email and I will be more than happy to give it to Bob and Chris but I can tell you roughly Bob; you said that you wanted to have a sit down meal correct?

Commissioner Stonecash – Well I think everybody would want that

Commissioner Wesler – I agree

Commissioner Stonecash – if you want to have that type of deal it would be sit down.

Commissioner Wesler – I agree, I think we when we talked to Susan, she said it would ahh we could designate what kind of main dish we want, we could have numerous ones. Well I think the best thing to do would be a meat selection a steak selection, a fish selection and a pasta selection. Ahh just roughly guys it costs different levels there for each one and I'll get you but roughly I think it's going to cost $25. $25 for the meal

Commissioner Stonecash – How many people do we plan on

Commissioner Wesler – Well it seats at least 200 Bob so

Commissioner Stonecash – 200 people

Commissioner Wesler – Yeah, I would hope with ahmm the people I have talked who are somewhat willing who would like to come to it I don't see why we can't get that many. One thing that Connie and I have talked about, I don't think Shawnda has been in on this conversation yet is if you do give corporate sponsors as they did in the Courthouse, how much how many tickets do they get with their sponsorship? There's differences on that. Let me tell you what Geissman from Medina County says; she says if a sponsor gives $2,500, they still have to buy their tickets. She said they don't give a table for free. She says this is a charity and they understand that and they have no problems with buying their own. I f you guys want to give two tickets away for each donation that's fine. It is something I'll let you guys decide. Ahhm something else is what are the different levels of giving? I am just going by suggestions that she has done and it is $2,500, $1,500 a thousand, $500 and $250. She might have 750 in there I can't remember Connie, do you? Ahh see that is still to be determined, the meal is still to be determined but roughly 25. Ahhm decorations ahhm that shouldn't be a problem.

Connie – the band

Commissioner Wesler – The band is going to be ahhm ahhh Connie I can't remember. It is either $250 or $350. I would somewhat like to have a DJ there while we are doing that and I talked with Marta and she is going to ahh and I think hers is going to be $149. Or yeah 149.

Connie – Marta

Commissioner Wesler – A Marta Kubish sp? from Kick 96.

Commissioner Stonecash – They play just when the band takes a fifteen minute break or whatever?

Commissioner Wesler – Well they won't start for 2 hours after the event starts so while we are having our social hour and everything we would want to have some music.

Commissioner Stonecash – Gottcha.

Commissioner Wesler – You are right, during the bands break she would play. But believe me possibly the advertisement or whatever if we need advertisement on this would be offset by that. Ahhh the cost of doing the invitations ahh Connie what do you think? Let's ask Shawnda that.

Shawnda how are you doing?

Shawnda Combs – Good. How are you?

Commissioner Wesler – Good ahh I decided we better talk about the Commissioners Ball to get something's rolling here. You can sit down. They asked me about expenses and I did talk to Susan and she lowered it to $300. I said on average the meals would probably be 25 a piece.

Shawnda Combs – That is about what I had figured.

Commissioner Wesler – Ahh the band and DJ together would be it is either $400 or something like that. In other words these costs are pretty minimal for I mean that is a seven piece band for $250 and a DJ altogether.  Ahh now ahhm decoration you said you had or you could do something there.

Shawnda Combs – I know that the lodge has decorations there that we discussed and I believe they said they would supply linen

Commissioner Wesler – Right they did.

Shawnda Combs – I did drop it on Lavon's Wright's ears because she is a decorating guru — because she offered to help with the —??? help with it. AUDIO ISSUE

Commissioner Wesler – Shawnda I have also talked with you about when the date was going to be August 14

Shawnda Combs – The 14th or 13th?

Commissioner Wesler – 13th

Shawnda Combs – It is the day after my birthday so really we're celebrating my birthday.

Commissioner Wesler – There you go. Ahh well I guess there are several others that I guess who have brought concerns on fund raising. Well this is our event is a non-partisan event. It's ahh you know one elected official asked is have we modeled this after anybody else? Well yes, I have said that all along. Ahhm and I just told Bob and Chris about the potential for instead of getting inquiries from different nonprofits is just designate one or two as they did up there and ahhm we can narrow it down between three to six I could see. Between one and for each of us and giving to these different charities and ahh it doesn't have to be the same amount to each one. And only after we found out how much money we made would we of course announce that. But we could predetermine who we are going to give to and then announce that for our when we send out the papers. The invitation to solicit I guess so. As Medina County did correct?

Shawnda Combs – correct

Commissioner Wesler – As far as invitations you know Connie and I asked you if you. I asked you I guess if you would look at the invitations

Shawnda Combs – correct and I did. And practically I don't think there is going to be a problem. —-???  audio issue  needs to be nailed down to the who what why and when. I looked at Medina's and their focus is on the average charity you know the things we hear day in and day out. I think at the time we have spoke about — make sure — I know all charities give to needy people but I of the mind that with who you give it to should be in some way something that continues to keep on giving so that it doesn't just stop at somebody's dinner table. This is something that could keep rolling, snowballing into something much bigger. I know I mentioned to the folks at the Partnership when we discussed this project was that somehow we tie it to the needs of economic development ie the workforce development part of our program. The robots r us program is I know uhm something that will continue to give and given the right way it will put our kids in a position that they can get a much higher paying job. CNN ran a special last night, the title was "Don't fail me", the premise was the robotics program for the regionals. Our kids weren't highlighted and they picked three different communities and they outlined what kind of classes the educational system would have in place in those communities to determine where their skill sets were to see who would rank first. Some schools don't offer AP classes and some that do, it all depended on the support they had. When they showed the footage of the competition Zerox was there, Intel was there some of the biggest and brightest companies in the world were there picking kids off the competition floor to hire them to keep them in their ranks. I know Indiana I think they got first or second place. Goes on to further discuss this topic    3 hr.  0 Minute mark  Mentions 4H.

 3 hr.  0 Minute mark  Commissioner Stonecash – That is great and I appreciate those comments. I was looking for costs, projected income, so we might know what we're dealing with. I guess I don't so far I have been kind of one eye open and one eye closed maybe on the information been getting. This is a start.

 3 hr.  6 Minute mark  Commissioner Stonecash – So what are we saying the expenses are? $7,000

Commissioner Wesler – Ahh well … those expense should all be covered with the cost of entry the ticket price.

Further discussion

 3 hr.  8 Minute mark  Shawnda mentions Partnership employer saying they would be interested in scholarship creation or Robots R Us.

Further discussion on this topic

 3 hr.  13 Minute mark   Commissioner Stonecash – Ok we are going to have a Commissioners Ball or Gala. It is not going to be all elected officials it is going to be called Commissioners.

Shawnda – Commissioners Charity Ball

Commissioner Stonecash – Straighten me out here if I do or say something that is not right. And we are responsible; basically the three of us and that was one of my concerns as to cover the expense of this. It can't come through this office; it can't have this office on it at all

Commissioner Wesler – That is right.

Commissioner Stonecash – And it is going to be run through the Partnership

Commissioner Wesler – Right

Commissioner Stonecash – So we're not worried about what anybody else thinks about the date, or anybody else thinks about going if they want to go we highly encourage them to participate but they are not responsible for anything so they should not have a concern but we would love to have them in attendance.

Shawnda – The weight of we is a whole lot more than the weight of me.

Further discussion on this topic

3 hr. 15.5 Minute mark  Shawnda mentions having 4H being ushers.

Dave thinks it is a great idea.

3 hr. 17.5 Minute mark   Shawnda's – cell phone goes off and she has to leave.

Commissioner Stonecash will not be able to make it.

Shawnda heard carrying on a phone call.

3 hr. 19.5 Minute mark  Commissioner Stonecash – My concern was we at least break even.

Commissioner Day – Because what you are saying is the three of us are on the hook if it doesn't.

Commissioner Stonecash – That is exactly right and by us saying that then no one else has a concern.

Commissioner Day – You guys have both read the Judge's letter and his concern. I've talked to some of the other elected officials; I've talked to non elected officials that are somewhat concerned about this. Obviously you are not going to please everybody with the timing and this and that…..

Commissioner Wesler – …they were unhappy that they read it in the paper before we told them.

Commissioner Day – My concern is that you are going to get enough participation to break even.

Commissioner Stonecash – ….I don't think that is a major problem.

3 hr. 23 Minute mark  Commissioner Day – We got to be careful how much we drop on Shawnda Good point.  I have been thinking the same thing. Was this person hired as an Economic Development Director or Commission Gopher for party organizing?

Commissioner Wesler – She's agreed that she wants' to do it.

Commissioner Day – I understand but we have to be careful what we put on her. She still has to do her job.

Commissioner Stonecash – Well we can help.

Commissioner Day – There is still going to be $500 worth of printing. I mean doing invitations or particulars however you want to handle it. That is what I was going to ask her but she got out of here.

Commissioner Stonecash – You might get somebody to sponsor the printing.

Commissioner Wesler – Yeah exactly. Hueston Woods should already be considered a sponsor… renting the room for $300 instead of usual $1,000. They are already an in-kind sponsor.
