Chair Jerke stated ten dollars, per mineral acre, is a modest bid amount and the County has received dramatically higher bids over the last several years. Commissioner Rademacher concurred with Commissioner Jerke. Marcia Walters, Purchasing,stated Lone Tree Energy and Associates, LLC, is the company who nominated the tracts for auction and it is the sole bidder for the first tract of land, S1/2NW1/4, NE1/4NW1/4,AND SWI/4NE1/4OFS13,T4N, R61W. Ms.Walters stated Lone Tree and Associates, LLC, submitted a bid in the amount of $25.00, per net mineral acre, and the bid was submitted prior to the deadline. In response to Commissioner Masden, Ms. Walters stated the property is located west of the Town of Nunn. Commissioner Masden stated he supports waiting for more interest in these leases. Chair Jerke stated $25.00 per net mineral acre is also too small of an amount to accept. Commissioner Garcia moved to reject the bids submitted for all eight of the oil and gas leases. Commissioner Masden seconded the motion. In response to Ms. Connolly, Chair Jerke stated there is not a need to immediately make these leases available for bid again and he suggested scheduling a work session in January, with the new Board, to discuss the matter.

OLD BUSINESS: CONSIDER SUSPENSION OF RETAIL FOOD ESTABLISHMENT LICENSE - CARNICERIA LA PROVIDENCIA: Dan Joseph, Department of Public Health and Environment, stated an onsite visit was conducted to monitor compliance with regulations, per instructions given at the Board meeting on November 19, 2008. Mr. Joseph stated it was observed that the owners have taken steps to provide assurance the facility will come into compliance. He stated the owners have rearranged the facility to separate the meat department from the cooking area, thoroughly cleaned the facility, removed equipment which is no longer in use, formulated a management structure, repaired equipment, and will send five employees to the Weld STAR training. He further stated staff recommends the suspension be delayed, since they are comfortable with the changes in place. Mr. Joseph stated there will be an inspection in Minutes, December 1, 2008 2008-3144 Page 2 BC0016 December and another in January to monitor long term compliance. In response to Chair Jerke, Mr.Joseph stated if the facility remains in compliance the Board will not be presented with the matter again in 2008. In response to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Joseph stated the conditions have rapidly improved and it is a quite different facility than it was. He stated the walk-in coolers have been rearranged to separate the meat from the cooking facilities, and preparation sinks have been added to accommodate both the meat department and the cooking department. Further responding to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Joseph reiterated staff will continue to monitor the establishment for long term compliance. Commissioner Masden stated he believes compliance needs to be regularly monitored for a longer period than through January, and he suggested monthly inspections be made each month for six months. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Joseph stated staff will come before the Board to report its findings after the time the Board has agreed upon has lapsed. Maria Meza, representative for Carniceria La Providencia, submitted photographs into the record, marked Exhibit A. Ms. Meza stated the owners and staff plan to keep up with the requirements,and the establishment has hired two additional employees to help do so. She stated the establishment will also close an hour earlier and open an hour later to allow time for appropriate preparation and cleaning. She further stated the establishment has assigned a cooler exclusively for the meat operations, and one exclusively for the restaurant. Ms. Meza stated the facility will install a new sink for meat preparation to help the departments to remain clearly separated. In response to Chair Jerke, Ms. Meza stated all of the employees will be attending the Weld STAR classes; however, some will attend the Spanish classes and some will attend the English classes. She stated staff has posted reminders about proper cooling and hand washing in appropriate areas around the facility and the management plans to meet with the employees twice per week for the purpose of reminding staff about the health and safety regulations. In response to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Joseph stated there was a rodent issue; however, there is no evidence there is one now. Commissioner Masden moved to delay the suspension by six months, until June 3, 2009, and to perform monthly inspections. In response to Commissioner Garcia, Mr. Joseph stated a fine has been imposed and the owners will provide payment today. Commissioner Masden amended his motion to include pending the $500.00 payment is made. Commissioner Rademacher seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. NEW BUSINESS: CONSIDER CHANGE ORDER #1 TO STANDARD FORM OF AGREEMENT FOR WELD COUNTY COURTS PHASE IV - GROWLING BEAR COMPANY, INC., AND BLEY ASSOCIATES: Mr. Persichino stated the reason for the large amount of the change order is because the HVAC system, which provides ventilation and air conditioning, will cost approximately $233,000.00. He stated the old jail building was built on a"demand air system",which simply blew air on the second and third floors, since the temperature controls needed for a court facility were not needed at that time. He further stated this particular alteration is typically needed when remodeling a building of this structure and nature. Mr. Persichino stated there are two other issues which contributed to the cost. He stated the first issue is staff initially believed one concrete floor could work with another concrete floor; however, one concrete floor needed to be removed due to a problem with a lip, which cost approximately $20,000.00. He further stated the other issue contributing to the cost increase is additional electrical upgrades were required, since the power for the elevator will need to travel extensively,from one source panel to another. Mr. Persichino stated these may be the first of may unforseen expenses to occur throughout the remodeling project; however, it is still far less expensive than building a new structure. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Persichino stated the expense is paid from Capital funds, not Public Works funds. In response to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Persichino reiterated there is currently no way to reduce the level of air blowing in the building. In response to Chair Jerke, Mr. Persichino stated none of the potential vendors who bid for this project could have predicted the additional costs, and the architectural team was unaware of the issues causing additional expenses until after demolition had commenced. Mr. Persichino stated there are always unknown issues which arise when remodeling old buildings. Commissioner Masden moved to approve said Change Order and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Garcia, the motion carried unanimously. Minutes, December 1, 2008 2008-3144 Page 3 BC0016 CONSIDER THREE CHILD PROTECTION AGREEMENTS FOR SERVICES WITH VARIOUS PROVIDERS AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN: Judy Griego, Director of the Department of Human Services, stated the agreements were reviewed previously at a work session on November 24, 2008. Ms. Griego stated the first agreement is with Dr.Theron Sills, to provide psychiatric consultations for Child Welfare, including the Child Protection Team. She stated the maximum amount to be paid for this contract is$3,600.00, and the term of the agreement is January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009. Ms. Griego stated the next agreement is with Dr. Larry Matthews to provide medical consultation for Child Welfare, including the Child Protection Team, and the maximum amount to be paid is $3,600.00. She stated the term of the agreement is January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2009. Ms. Griego stated the third agreement is with Marilyn Neihart to provide consultation, support, and training for Child Welfare. She stated Ms. Neihart will be paid $67.00 per hour, not to exceed 20 hours per week, and the term of the contract is December 1, 2008, through November 30, 2009. Commissioner Long moved to approve said agreements and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Rademacher,the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER TWO APPLICATIONS FOR FEDERAL ASSISTANCE FOR DUAL LANGUAGE INSTITUTE FUNDING SUPPORT AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN: Ms.Griego stated these two grant applications will support in funding the cost to send the Regional Head Start and the Migrant and Seasonal Head Start staff to attend training at the Dual Language Institute, which occurred October 28, 2008, through October 31, 2008. She stated the goals of the training are to improve staff's understanding of the dual language initiative and second language acquisition issues facing the Head Start population; to increase staff's knowledge of the needs of the Spanish-speaking and other non-English speaking populations; and to increase staff's understanding and skills in the effective delivery of needed second language acquisition services. She further stated the intent is to help Head Start children and their families acquire better English skills. Commissioner Garcia inquired if dual language, in this context, is learning both languages side by side or teaching primarily in English. Ms. Griego stated the goal is to speed up the English conversion process. Responding to Commissioner Garcia, Ms. Griego stated this program is not Weld County School District 6's program, in which one language was taught one semester and the other language was taught the next semester. Chair Jerke inquired as to what a dual language initiative is. Ms. Griego stated the Dual Language Institute provided the training, which was recommended by the Federal Head Start Program. She stated her perception of the initiative's intent is to find a way for staff to work effectively with families whose primary language is Spanish, to help those families begin the English conversion process, and to help prepare the children for school. Chair Jerke stated three staff members have already attended the training, before the grant was applied for. Ms Griego stated she previously advised the Board at a work session, in advance of the training, that those employees were going to attend the training. Commissioner Long stated in a work session Ms. Griego explained the Department may seek reimbursement funds after the training has taken place. Commissioner Long moved to approve said applications and authorize the Chair to sign. Commissioner Rademacher seconded the motion. Chair Jerke stated he is a strong believer in language immersion and he is not willing to vote in favor of these applications. Commissioner Garcia stated he is nervous about approving these applications, and he would like to conduct a work session before deciding on the matter. Commissioner Masden suggested continuing the matter to allow the Board to attend a work session before deciding on the matter. Ms. Griego stated the Department has a work session scheduled next Monday, at which time the Board may discuss this matter further. Chair Jerke stated a substitute motion may be made. Commissioner Masden moved to continue the matter until Wednesday, December 10, 2008. Commissioner Garcia seconded the motion, which carried unanimously. (Clerk's Note: The meeting was continued to December 17, 2008, rather than December 10, 2008, per a request from the Department of Human Services.) CONSIDER AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR SERVICES AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN - AIMS COMMUNITY COLLEGE: Ms. Griego stated the original agreement was approved at the Minutes, December 1, 2008 2008-3144 Page 4 BC0016 September 22, 2008 Board meeting and its intent was to assist child care providers in meeting reimbursement levels. She stated the amendment was presented at the November 24,2008 work session, and it will adjust the fee schedule, as provided in the memorandum, for a period from June 30, 2008, through May 31, 2009. Commissioner Garcia moved to approve said amendment and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Long, the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER 2009 CONTINUATION GRANT APPLICATION FOR LIVEWELL WELD COUNTY PROJECT AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN - LIVEWELL COLORADO: Gaye Morrison, Department of Public Health and Environment, stated the funding source is Livewell Colorado, and the purpose of the grant is to continue the Steps projects, which began five years ago. Ms. Morrison stated the term of the grant will be for a period from February 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010, and the amount requested is $249,983.00. She stated it is a non-competitive grant with an emphasis on low-income and underserved populations. She further stated the strategies will continue to provide nutrition education, improve access to healthy foods, and increase opportunities for physical activity. Ms. Morrison stated one full-time staff member is requested, a Registered Dietician, and a part-time Office Technician III, which will be added to an existing position in Health Communications to make the position full-time. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Ms. Morrison stated the County match is providing office space, meeting rooms, refreshments, and staff. She stated the County is permitted to count every volunteer who participates in any program and volunteers who provide any meeting rooms,or provide any services toward the match. She further stated there are 2.25 positions which are already established in Health Communications and will work on the grant; therefore, those salaries are included in the County match. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Ms. Morrison stated there will be no penalty for the County if it fails to meet the in-kind match. In response to Chair Jerke, Ms. Morrison stated these are existing costs which the County is able to claim. Ms. Morrison stated in addition to staff time and office space, the County can use phone and electricity costs toward the match. Further responding to Chair Jerke, Ms. Morrison stated one of the authors listed in the grant application, Pam Smith, is a contracted employee. In response to Chair Jerke, Ms. Morrison stated the Nutrition Education Program is open to Weld County employees. Further responding to Chair Jerke, Ms. Morrison stated this grant is not funded by the State or by tobacco tax funds. She stated it is a private-public partnership between Livewell Colorado and the County, and the money is all from private funds. She further stated Livewell Colorado is a private corporation, whose largest financial contributor is Kaiser Permanente; however, its projects involve the Colorado Trust, the Colorado Health Foundation, and the Colorado Department of Public Health. In response to Commissioner Garcia, Ms. Morrison stated the dietician will be available to work with the elderly and youth being served in other Weld County programs. Commissioner Rademacher moved to approve said application and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Masden, the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF CR 62.75, BETWEEN CRS 55 AND 57: Janet Carter, Department of Public Works, stated the closure is for the replacement of a culvert, and will commence December 8, 2008, through December 12, 2008. Ms. Carter stated there will be 1.34 miles of gravel roadway on the detour route,which will be treated with water for dust control. She stated the average daily traffic count for the road is 127 vehicles; therefore, no message boards will be used; however, road signs and barricades will be used to advise drivers of the closure. Commissioner Rademacher moved to approve said temporary closure. Seconded by Commissioner Masden, the motion carried unanimously. CONSIDER AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR INMATE HEALTH SERVICES AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN-CORRECTIONAL HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT, INC.: Sterling Geesaman,Sheriff's Office, stated this type of amendment is usually placed on the consent agenda; however, staff wanted the Commissioners to have the opportunity to ask questions regarding the addition of a psychiatric nurse. Mr. Geesaman stated the psychiatric nurse will visit the jail once a week to provide consultation to the counseling staff and may provide psychotropic medications to inmates who are in need of such drugs. He Minutes, December 1, 2008 2008-3144 Page 5 BC0016 stated it is a new cost; however, it was figured into the 2009 budget. In response to Chair Jerke, Mr. Geesaman stated previously a general practitioner has been providing this service; however, the population of inmates in need of this type of care is growing. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman reiterated the psychiatric nurse will visit the facility once per week. Further Responding to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman stated the service will cost the County approximately $3,300.00, per month. Chair Jerke stated the amount to procure the services of a psychiatric nurse seems too high. In response to Chair Jerke, Mr. Geesaman stated the $3,300.00 does not include the expense of purchasing psychotropic medications. Mr. Geesaman stated this is a much needed service, and the psychiatric nurse will consult with the counselors, who have the daily interaction with the inmates. Commissioner Long stated this is great step forward for the County and he much prefers that someone with a background in prescribing psychotropic medications is in this position than a general practitioner. He stated this will save the County money, and the psychiatric nurse will be able to much more effectively prescribe psychotropic medications. He further stated ensuring inmates are on the correct medications will have lasting effects, hopefully beyond their incarceration. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman reiterated the expense has been figured into the 2009 budget. Chair Jerke stated he does not believe this service is worth the financial expense, and he will be voting in opposition to the amendment. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman stated the psychiatric nurse is provided by Correctional Healthcare Management, Inc. In response to Commissioner Masden, Mr. Geesaman stated it is less expensive than the cost of employing a psychiatrist and it is becoming common practice to have either a psychiatrist or a psychiatric nurse on staff at correctional facilities. Commissioner Long stated it breaks down to a small amount per client, opposed to examining the rate per hour. In response to Chair Jerke, Commissioner Long stated the psychiatric nurse will not simply meet a client and make a split second diagnosis; the psychiatric nurse will review the records provided by counseling staff and may conduct an initial interview with the client also. Commissioner Long stated the psychiatric nurse does not provide counseling, their duty will be to prescribe psychotropic medications as a result of counseling staff and their own findings. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman reiterated a general practitioner is currently providing this service. He stated providing a psychiatric nurse will limit liability and provide the best care at the least expensive cost. In response to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman stated when the clients fail to pay for their medications, the County must pay the expense. Further responding to Commissioner Rademacher, Mr. Geesaman stated the Department is under budget for it's 2008 medical expenses; however, some years the Department has exceeded the cap. Commissioner Long moved to approve said amendment and authorize the Chair to sign. Commissioner Garcia seconded the motion. Upon the request for a roll call vote, the motion passed four to one, with Chair Jerke in opposition. CONSIDER AGREEMENT FOR ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN - AMERIFLEX: Ms. Connolly stated AmeriFlex is the company the County is contracting with for its 2009 Flexible Spending accounts, and debit cards will be provided to the participating employees to directly pay for approved expenses, opposed to paying for the expense and later submitting a reimbursement request. In response to Commissioner Garcia, Ms. Connolly stated the card may only to be used on certain medical expenses. Further responding to Commissioner Garcia, Ms. Connolly stated when shopping at grocery stores and places like Wal-mart, prescriptions will be identified by the card and many over-the-counter medications will be identified by the card; however, others may not be, in which case, a reimbursement request must be submitted. In response to Commissioner Garcia, Ms. Connolly stated a physician may prescribe items for a plan participant that are not normally covered, such as vitamins, which will not be identified by the card; however, a reimbursement claim may be submitted. In response to Chair Jerke, Ms. Connolly stated the AmeriFlex cards are available to all Weld County employees who choose to utilize a Flex Spending account. Commissioner Rademacher moved to approve said application and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Garcia, the motion carried unanimously. Minutes, December 1, 2008 2008-3144 Page 6 BC0016 CONSIDER ENERGY AND MINERAL IMPACT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM APPLICATION FOR HEAVY EQUIPMENT ROAD MAINTENANCE PROJECT AND AUTHORIZE CHAIR TO SIGN: Ms. Mika stated this is an application for the 2009 Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance Program,which will be submitted to the State Department of Local Affairs (DOLA). She stated, in the application, replacement equipment is being requested for the Department of Public Works. Commissioner Masden stated when this grant is awarded he will no longer be on the Board of County Commissioners; however, he will be serving on the Energy Impact Board. In response to Commissioner Masden, Ms. Mika stated the direct distribution funding has historically been awarded directly to the Department of Public Works; however, there is not a policy which specifies the process and the budget document will suffice in lieu of a policy document. Further responding to Commissioner Masden, Ms. Mika stated this will be a replacement plan and similar grant requests have been made twice before and were successfully rewarded. She stated she is aware this may be a difficult request to submit next year, due to policy changes. Commissioner Masden stated there are changes regarding the amounts of direct distribution funds to be awarded to cities and counties, and last month there was$54,000,000.00 requested of the Energy Impact Board and only$21,000.000.00 available. He stated in previous years the money was available for equipment requests from the Energy Impact Severance Tax; however, from this point forward, it will be much more difficult for equipment requests to be granted. He stated equipment requests are not presently a high priority and if the requested equipment costs are included in a paving project or some type of capital improvement project, the chances are much higher for the request being granted. Ms. Mika stated there is some justification for equipment expenses,since Weld County has more roadways than the State of Colorado has responsibility for,as well as 15,000 production wells. She stated she will schedule a work session with the Board if revision is required. Commissioner Masden moved to approve said application and authorize the Chair to sign. Seconded by Commissioner Garcia, the motion carried unanimously. FIRST READING OF WELD COUNTY CODE ORDINANCE#2009-01, IN THE MATTER OF REPEALING AND REENACTING, WITH AMENDMENTS, CHAPTER 3 HUMAN RESOURCES, OF THE WELD COUNTY CODE: Ms. Mika stated a work session was conducted to discuss the changes to this Ordinance. She stated she is prepared to moved forward with the first reading as it is; however, she will first review the proposed changes. Ms. Mika stated Section 3-6-50.H may be revised for the second reading after being reviewed by the new Director of Human Resources, Patty Russell. She stated the proposed change is regarding how a year will be calculated in relationship to family and medical leave policy. She stated Section 3-10-90 revises the Department of Social Services steps to be consistent with the other Weld County Departments. Ms. Mika stated Section 3-11-20 will eliminate the three month evaluation for new employees; therefore,the first evaluation will occur at six months from date of hire. She stated it is also proposed that employee evaluations be conducted once per year, rather than every six months. Responding to Chair Jerke, Ms. Mika stated a work session has been conducted; however, another one will be scheduled before second reading, since there is a new Director of Human Resources, who needs to express her opinions on the proposed changes. Commissioner Masden stated the Board needs to discuss the PeopleSoft Program also. There was no public testimony. Commissioner Masden moved to approve Ordinance #2009-01 on first reading. Seconded by Commissioner Rademacher, the motion carried unanimously. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the Consent Agenda. Ordinance #2009-01 was approved on first reading. Let the minutes reflect that the above and foregoing actions were attested to and respectfully submitted by the Acting Clerk to the Board.
