D. Approval of Minutes – Road Commission –
December 21, 2009
Action
Commissioner Sathe made the motion to approve the Minutes of December 21, 2009 as presented, motion second by
Commissioner Persons and approved by a 3 ayes, 0 nays and (1) abstention.
Rob Quandt welcomed Gary Baker to the Road Commission meeting and announced he would make a presentation to the
Commissioners.
Commissioner Jerry Curran arrived at
6:37 PM
.
Gary Baker was recognized and stated he was happy to be on board. He
stated that he will be investigating grants and other public funding in order to facilitate funding for the Road Commission and referenced the
Pavement Management System and the Excel program he has transferred to the City's computer system in order to keep it updated. Currently he is working out the details and prioritizing the different tasks. He will also be working with
staff and planning on ways to better serve the community in his capacity as Director of Roads and he was pleased with the work that was done in 2009. He
stated that the Pavement Management System is a great planning tool and there are much bigger cities in CA and OR who do not have such a plan in place.
Mr. Baker stated that the funding of the improvements came from money through the stimulus plan and it went a long
way and the City is looking forward to stimulus part #2 for additional funding. He stated he was out of State at the time the work was being
completed and heard there were some frantic moments towards the end of the job but that the community over all is happy with the work that was done.
Gary Baker reviewed the Excel sheets provided in the Road Commission packets and explained the information
contained therein. He stated that the majority of roads in
Dunes
City
have a PCI of 77 which is outstanding and they will last 5-7 years between treatments. He said he will keep an eye
on these streets to see how they hold up. He stated that paving is just one part of street maintenance and that the Road Commission also needs to
be concerned with other public works issues such as drainage, signs, ditching, etc. and to keep a running inventory of those problems.
Chairman Quandt thanked
Gary
for putting together the Pavement Management Plan and said he was thankful to finally have
Gary
aboard and apologized for the long delay in the process. He added that the PMI has left the Roads Department in a
strong position going forward into the next budget year and better able to resolve the remaining road problems in the City.
E.
Citizen Input
George Burke, resident on
Lake Blvd.
, was recognized and stated he wanted to discuss an ongoing concern he has on his street with the two garbage carriers that service
Dunes
City
. He stated there are 4 trucks a week going down his street and every
truck that passes leaves a spot of oil every 6 -10 feet each week and he thinks this is an issue the Road Commission should look into.
Commissioner Smith asked Mr. Burke if the oil is engine oil or oil from the truck's hydraulic systems.
Mr. Burke stated he was not sure what type of oil it was.
Chairman Quandt recommended that the City look into the Franchise Agreements they have with each of the carriers
and send a letter to each of them that the City is receiving complaints from the residents and for them to check their vehicles for leaks and to correct the situation.
Commissioner Owen thanked Mr. Burke for bringing this issue up as she has observed the same problems on her street.
ACTION
Commission Sathe made the motion to send a letter to each of the carriers after reviewing the Franchise Agreement
and let them know that their vehicles are leaking oil on the city roads, Commissioner Curran seconded the motion and the motion was unanimously approved by (5) ayes and (0) nays.
F. Communications
(1) Copy of Certification of Final Completion (2009 Road Maintenance Projects).
Chairman Quandt reviewed the Engineer's Certification of Final Completion received from the Dyer Partnership for the 2009 Road Maintenance
Projects. He stated that the bill for the services has been paid and in one year the City will have the engineers inspect the roads to validate
the one year warranty on the work completed.
Additional Item added to the agenda at the Road Commission meeting.
(2) Information on
Lane
County
ACT
charter creation.
Chairman Quandt reviewed the meeting he attended with Mayor Hauptman and Florence Mayor Brubaker on
January 13, 2010
at the ODOT offices in
Springfield
regarding the formation of a
Lane
County
ACT
group. He stated the County is attempting to create a charter that will include a group of cities who will work
together in order to obtain more lobbying power with the State. The group is asking for elected officials to represent each city. Chairman Quandt stated he felt this would be an assignment for Gary Baker but at this time they are only asking for the Mayor's participation. He also stated that the benefit of belonging to this group may only benefit State controlled highways, such as US 101 and Highway 126 and that 126
would be a fight between
Florence
and
Eugene
as to who has more control over it. Chairman Quandt stated it is not clear what the benefit for Dunes City will be
and perhaps may only influence capital improvement funding on the section of 101 that runs through Dunes City, therefore, we will have to weigh the benefit of being a member of this group
and at present it is not clear what is involved, however, if there is money to be had from ODOT, the City wants to be included.
Chairman Quandt stated he would have Gary Baker look over the program to see if
Dunes
City
wants to be involved to help create the charter and how it will benefit the City. He stated this issue is a FYI
for the Road Commission so they are aware of the program.
Commissioner Smith stated that being Chairman Quandt is an elected City Council member it would make more sense for him to represent the
City. He also stated that these types of groups tend to follow travel corridors and
Dunes
City
could invest a lot of time in this and it may just involve US 101 and 126 and would only benefit
Lane
County
.
Chairman Quandt stated he agreed with Commissioner Smith and he didn't want to spend a lot of time on this topic until they have more
information and after the charter is formed.
Commissioner Sathe stated he also agreed with Commissioner Smith and that Mayor Hauptman should clarify how participation in this charter
will help
Dunes
City
.
Commission Curran referenced Exhibit A of the document and stated they are looking to form
this group by April 30, 2010 and it looks like it will represent 12 cities in Lane County and Dunes City is just a dot on the map and he didn't think the City would get much say in any
proposals. He suggested that
Dunes
City
combine their resources with City of
Florence
, the
Siuslaw
Port
and the Indian tribes which would then give us 4 seats of the 20 open seats in
Lane
County
, otherwise
Dunes
City
by itself would see little benefit.
Commissioner Owen asked if there are any costs to the City for participation and also asked if Mapleton is a City that could be included.
Chairman Quandt said that currently the only costs are his time to go to the meetings and that Mapleton is not an incorporated city. He
stated at this time he is just making himself familiar with the process and he will keep the Road Commission updated.
G. Unfinished/Old
Business
(1) Review of Chapter 90 Right-of-Way provisions for the Master Road Plan discussion.
Chairman Quandt asked Commissioner Smith to review the information he has compiled for the Master Road Plan
update.
Commissioner Smith stated he didn't have anything typed up and ready to hand out to the members. He stated he first wished to apologize to Commissioner Curran because he wasn't able to get back to him
this weekend. He stated he forwarded, by email, David Persons' comments and also wished to apologize to Commissioner Owen because she does not
have an email account and he didn't call her. Commissioner Smith stated he wanted his apologies to be on the public record that he had made them.
Commissioner Smith compared
Florence
's Title 8, Chapter 2 – Streets and Sidewalks Ordinance to
Dune
City
's Chapter 90.
Commissioner Curran stated he had a presentation to make but would delay his presentation until the February
Road Commission meeting.
Commissioner Owen stated she had concerns regarding some of the wording in Chapter 90 and will give copies of
her notes to Commissioner Smith. She reviewed her questions with the Road Commission and referenced the following sections:
Under General Provisions (A) Definitions: ENCROACH. Commissioner Owen asked for clarification of the word and would it include to just walk across?
Commissioner Smith stated that the definition of encroach would be any unlawful undertaking or incursion as
stated in the last line.
Chair Quandt suggested the word "unlawful" be added to the word ENCROACH.
Commissioner Smith recommended that the word "stealth" be removed.
Commissioner Owen referenced under WITHIN THE CITY; Section (E) Obligations of the City and asked for the
clarification of this section's wording.
Chairman Quandt stated that this is an important provision of Chapter 90 as it allows the City to maintain a
particular right-of-way if it so chooses.
Commissioner Smith further explained that the City is not obligated, for example to maintain ditches that are
along the roads, they are the responsibility of the property owners to take care of even though they are located in the City's right-of-way.
Commissioner Owen stated she did not have copies of the codes that this section references.
Commissioner Owen referenced 90.14 ENFORCEMENT OF REGULATIONS and stated there should be more than one member
of the Road Commission to inspect the site and determine whether there is a violation.
Commissioner Smith stated that Commissioner Persons had raised this issue in the past and recommended that the
wording be changed to a minimum of two Road Commissioners and that a site review should be scheduled.
Commissioner Owen referenced 90.99 PENALTY (A) and stated the words "upon conviction" were too
strong.
Chairman Quandt stated that this is a legal document. He suggested
the wording "that upon a positive judgment of a wrongdoing" instead of "upon conviction." However, the wording must not weaken
our legal standing.
Commissioner Smith stated that this is a legal issue and he would not remove the words "upon
conviction."
Commissioner Sathe referenced 90.12 - HEAVY EQUIPMENT ON STREETS (A-3) and asked what are the preventative
measures to insure that the street is adequately protected. He stated that he thinks this section needs to be more defined and should further
state that if a contractor or an individual drives a tractor or other damaging equipment on to the City's roads and damages them, they would be
fined.
Chair Quandt stated the City is proposing to initiate business licenses and that fines would be included in the
process.
Commissioner Smith stated he didn't think that Section 90.12 could be changed because
it ties into other city's laws and could open up a lot of problems. He stated the Road Commission can declare "a public nuisance" and can create a schedule of fines that is part of the Master Road Plan.
Commissioner Sathe agreed that the Road Commission needs a schedule of fines.
Chair Quandt stated that the City's Nuisance Ordinance imposes fines by placing a lien against a property. If the violator doesn't own property there is no other course of action to collect a fine and if they own property, the lien cannot be collected on
until the property is sold.
Commissioner Smith stated that Section 90.99 PENALTY does not provide the City with any jurisdiction except
under Section 10.99. He recommended that an additional Section be added that violations would result in a fine of $500.00 to a homeowner or
contractor.
Chair Quandt recommended that any additional improvements to
Chapter 90 be forwarded to Commissioner Smith for further discussion.
(2) Review of revised "Courtesy Notice" as requested by Road Commissioners at December 21, 2009 meeting.
Commissioner Smith stated there are two other items that tie in with this discussion and they involve placement
of political signs and other issues regarding signs and listed other nuisances such as storage of materials that block public access. He
stated that these sections of the Dunes City Code could also affect the "Courtesy Notice" and asked the Road Commissioners to look into them and give him their input.
Chair Quandt advised the Commissioners to continue compiling information and communicating with Commissioner
Smith and continue reviewing Chapter 90.
Chair Quandt referenced Resolution No.
02-19-06
a Resolution Authorizing the Ticketing and Removal of Illegally Parked Vehicles in the Dunes City Road Right-of-Way. He stated that it didn't have
any signatures on it and doesn't appear to have ever been adopted.
Commissioner Persons stated that this Resolution was never acted on because
Dunes
City
wasn't able to secure an agreement with a towing service in the area that would serve
Dunes
City
because they didn't have a towing Ordinance or a Resolution already in place.
Chair Quandt stated he ran into this problem recently with a car that needed to be towed because it was
blocking the City's right-of-way. He stated that a Resolution trumps a motion, and an Ordinance trumps a Resolution.
He stated that
Dunes
City
needs an Ordinance that locks this in. He recommended that the Road Commission pass a Resolution on to the City
Council as a short term solution and that the City Council then amend Chapter 90 for the City's long term needs.
Commissioner Smith stated he was not comfortable sending the "Courtesy Notice" to the City Council in
its current form as it is overzealous and could expose the city to lawsuits.
Chair Quandt agreed that the two hour restriction needs to be changed because it is not reasonable. He recommended that staff look at the City of
Florence
's Ordinance and make some revisions before the Road Commission sends it on to the City Council.
Commissioner Persons stated he brought the "Courtesy Notice" before the Road Commission because there
have been problems on
Ford Way
and
Lake Blvd.
for a long time and there are some individuals that park in the right-of-way 24/7 and there isn't a street in
Dunes
City
that is safe for Emergency vehicles because they are all so narrow. Commissioner Persons stated he finally just went to the resident 's house in his
neighborhood who were the worst offenders and advised them that the city is going to start issuing courtesy notices to let them know they are in violation of the City's code. He stated he took the time to explain the issue for emergency equipment response and that the Siuslaw Fire Dept. is upset with
Dunes
City
for non-compliance. He stated they were very receptive to his advice and immediately corrected the problem. He
concluded that most people, if just advised of the law's existence would comply with it.
Commissioner Smith stated he had suggested several months ago that the "Courtesy Notice" strike the
two hours and make the provision 48 hours and start handing them out to habitual offenders.
Commissioner Persons stated that on
Lake Blvd.
, fire trucks would not be able to get through and asked what would a 48 hours limit do to remedy the problem.
Commissioner Smith stated that any clear obstruction would be treated no differently than just stopping your
car on 101 which would justify that the vehicle immediately be towed.
Chair Quandt recommended that the Road Commission put together draft language on this and revise the Courtesy
Notice.
(3) Wintertime Drainage survey for 2010.
Chair Quandt asked the Road Commissioners to identify any drainage problems they are aware of so that the Road
Commission can put them on a list and we can identify them. He stated there are two known projects that he is aware of and asked the Road
Commissioners to advise Gary and Maria by email or phone of any additional areas so they can be prioritized and scheduled into the budget.
Commissioner Smith asked if the roads surrounding
Fish Mill Way
are already on the radar screen.
Chair Quandt stated Fish Mill is on the agenda and he is planning on addressing this issue under the agenda
item regarding the budget process. He explained that the City attempted to resolve this problem during the road construction in 2009 but the
contractors were unable to fit the repairs in to their schedule but some engineering has already been done and it is the Road Commission's greatest priority in 2010. Chair Quandt stated he has discussed this project with Gary Baker and reviewed the easement that needs to be transferred to the City and they are
working on getting the City Council to approve it.
Chair Quandt stated that the Road Commission did so well in our spending last year we are in a good position to
achieve our budget goals this year and the next two Road Commission meetings will include reviewing the 2010 budget. He attributed the success of
the road improvement work to Gary Baker's excellent job on the Pavement Management System. He stated that in two months the Commissioners will
have a 2010 budget to approve.
(4) Update on maps on
Dunes
City
provided by
Oregon
Transportation with corrections and additions.
Chair Quandt referenced the maps that were provided by ODOT and distributed to the Road Commissioners several
months ago. He stated that Gary Baker is working on the updating of our maps and that the Commissioners should turn the information they
have compiled into Gary so it can all be consolidated on to one map.
Commissioner Sathe stated that he and Commissioner Persons have a completed map that they would like to have
the Commissioners review at tonight's meeting.
Chair Quandt stated that he appreciated their work on the map but at this time he would like to move on to the
next issue on the agenda.
Commissioner Curran stated that there are older maps that are more current than the new ones provided by ODOT.
Chair Quandt agreed and stated that some how over the years, information that was on the earlier maps has been
excluded.
Commissioner Owen asked if the vests for the Road Commissioners were received.
Chair Quandt stated they have been received and are ready to go.
H.
New Business
(1) Review and discussion regarding city owned property located at the end of
Foothill Drive
(Tax
Lot
#19-12-27-30-00700).
Chair Quandt stated this is the property that Mr. & Mrs. Skeele have closed off and put up a gate, also
known as the playground lot that was dedicated to
Dunes
City
by the City of
Florence
. He stated that the City has substantiated the chain of custody of this property and we have now confirmed the
title. It is outside of the City's urban growth boundary but there are roads contained within this site that are dedicated to the public. However, the Skeeles' have put up a fence and a locked gate and have blocked the City's access to the property and to the public roads in this plat. Chair Quandt advised that in past conversations with the Skeeles' he was told that all of the City's information regarding this property was false and
he referenced a letter sent in 2005 by the City asking them to remove the fence that was ignored by the Skeele's. He stated now that we have legal
papers indicating a clear title on this property, he wants the City to take action on obtaining access to the City owned lot.
Chair Quandt reviewed several options the City could take including the Road Commission declaring the fence a
nuisance and ordering that it be abated and have it removed if the Skeeles' refuse to comply. However, without a survey we don't know if the fence
is in or out of the urban growth boundary which would determine who has the legal authority to have it removed,
Dunes
City
or
Lane
County
. He suggested the Road Commission could put together a basic narrative on this situation and send it to
Lane
County
and then involve the Board of County Commissioners in resolving this issue. Char Quandt stated that without a
survey he thinks the property is outside of our urban growth boundary, however, the fence and gate is blocking public access and land locking our property.
Therefore, it would be the county's responsibility to take action and force the property owners to abate the fence as this is county owned land. He
stated that these decisions need to be made right away in order to avoid a lawsuit to get access to this city owned property.
Chair Quandt asked the Road Commission for direction on this subject and asked if the Road Commission should
send this to the City Council and have them declare it a nuisance or should the Road Commission take action. He also reiterated the problem the
City would have in imposing a fine on the property owners, who do not live in
Dunes
City
, therefore, the City would not be able to put a lien on their property. The other alternative would be to have the
Lane County Board of Commissioners resolve this problem.
Commissioner Sathe recommended that the County resolve the issue.
David Bellemore asked what the City Attorney recommended.
Chair Quandt stated this issue will most likely end up in court, and the Road Commission doesn't have the
authority to spend money for legal funds. Therefore, the City Council would have to involve the city attorney as to what the best procedure is.
David Bellemore stated the City may want to give the Skeeles' the opportunity to come in and prove to the city
that the documents the City holds as proof that we own the land are invalid.
Commissioner Persons commented that the original complaint was filed by Vicki and Bill Benson and they are
still residents of
Dunes
City
and perhaps they should re-file their complaint.
Commissioner Smith agreed with Commissioner Persons and suggested the City ask for an updated statement and the
Bensons' may have made additional claims in recent years. He also stated that he didn't feel this was an issue for the Road Commission to address
as it doesn't have anything to do with the Road Commission and recommended the City Council resolve the issue and didn't think a recommendation by the Road Commission would have any value.
Commissioner Owen agreed with Commissioner Smith and stated the roads contained in this plat are not
Dunes
City
's roads.
Chair Quandt asked the Commissioners if the Road Commission should compile the information they have generated
and pass it on to the City Council.
Commissioner Curran stated he didn't feel this issue was a Road Commission battle but would encourage the City
Council to have the fence and gate removed.
Discussion ensued regarding the urban growth boundary,
Dunes
City
's jurisdiction over the access to the County roads, involvement of the Lane County Board of Commissioners, inviting the property owners to a Road Commission
meeting to present their case and the involvement of the City Council.
Commissioner Smith stated he would make a recommendation to the City Council that they forward this issue to
the Lane County Board of Commissioners for resolution.
Chair Quandt stated he agreed with Commissioner Smith.
Commissioner Persons recommended the item be reviewed by the City Attorney.
He stated that in the past as soon as a lawsuit was mentioned, the discussion was over and nothing was ever resolved and that shouldn't be the case.
Chair Quandt agreed with Commissioner Persons for the need of legal counsel, however, cited the costs to
involve the City Attorney.
ACTION:
Commissioner Smith made the motion that this topic be reviewed by the City Council and the Lane County Board of
Commissioners, that the Skeele's be invited to address the City Council to present their position and that the City Council determine the rights of the City and send a certified letter to
the Skeeles' to comply with the City Council's ruling, motion seconded by Commissioner Owen and unanimously approved by 5 (ayes) and 0 (nays).
Chair Quandt stated that he understands and agrees that the "playground lot" was dedicated to the
City to be used as a park. However, in the interim to becoming a City park, the property could be valuable for other needs of the City.
Commissioner Curran referred back to Item #2 (Unfinished/Old Business) regarding the "Courtesy Notice."
Commissioner Curran referenced the draft "Courtesy Notice" as distributed in the Road Commission
packets and asked if the Commission accepted this draft.
Chair Quandt stated that it was the decision of the Commission to further review the Ordinances pertaining to
illegal parking and review other City's ordinances and revise the Courtesy Notice.
Commissioner Curran stated he would like something in the hands of the Road Commission at this time to start
addressing the problem.
Chair Quandt asked for a motion.
ACTION
Commissioner Curran made the motion to accept the draft "Courtesy Notice" as is and to start using it
for violations, motion seconded by Commissioner Sathe.
Commissioner Owen asked for a discussion of the motion. She stated
the "Courtesy Notice" was implemented because of problems occurring on
Ford Way
and there has not been an agreement regarding the hours of limitation.
Commissioner Curran stated the Courtesy Notice as it is now worded is better than having nothing at all.
Commissioner Persons stated that the parking problem is not exclusive to
Ford Way
but is a problem throughout
Dunes
City
.
Commissioner Smith stated he was under the impression that the Courtesy Notice was tabled to the February meeting and he sees the approval of the draft Courtesy Notice as being a waste of time if it is going to be changed next month. He stated that the notice is based on an existing chapter in the Master Road Plan.
Chair Quandt called for a point of order as several Commissioners were talking at the same time and he reminded
the Commissioners that there is a motion and a second on the table.
Commissioner Curran apologized for speaking out of turn but reiterated his belief that the Courtesy Notice is a
simple tool to let people know that there is a law regarding parking in the City's right-of-way and he would like to see it put to use now.
Commissioner Smith disagreed with the urgency of the matter and didn't think it was a problem to wait another
month to resolve the wording and the time limitations.
David Bellemore stated that both Commissioner Curran and Commissioner Smith made good points in their arguments
and the item needs to be discussed further.
Chair Quandt stated that the Courtesy Notice will have to be approved by the City Council ultimately and that
procedure could take several months. However, the Road Commission can approve the Courtesy Notice in the form it is in now as a temporary fix.
Commissioner Sathe called for the question and asked for a vote on the motion on the floor.
Chair Quandt called for a vote for the motion and second on the floor to approve the Courtesy Notice in its
current version.
The motion and second were approved by 3 (ayes) and 2 (nays). Commissioners
Smith and Owen voting against.
Chair Quandt stated the motion and the second were carried and staff will print out copies of the Courtesy
Notice and make them available to the Commissioners for their use.
Commissioner Owen asked who is going to hand out the Courtesy Notices.
Chair Quandt stated he would and asked to be advised of violations.
Commissioner Smith concurred with comments made by George Burke that the wording in the Courtesy Notice is
taken from the Master Road Plan and not from Ordinance 90 and asked what Ordinance is being referenced.
Chair Quandt stated the Courtesy Notice at this time is a temporary notice to fill a temporary gap to resolving
this issue.
I. Unscheduled Items Not Listed on Agenda
Commissioner Sathe stated he wanted to create a Road Commission Auxiliary.
He stated the members would get a Road Commission packet monthly and they would review driveways and other issues addressed by the Road Commission on a regular basis. This involvement would prepare them to be future candidates for the Road Commission when openings became available.
Commissioner Smith stated although he sees the value in what Commissioner Sathe is proposing the Road
Commission doesn't have the power to create a Road Commission Auxiliary. He stated that according to Ordinance, the Road Commission can make a
suggestion to the City Council.
Chair Quandt stated that the Road Commission forming a Road Commission Auxiliary is a minor thing and would not
be invoking power but would just be printing out extra Road Commission packets. He didn't agree that it would be a violation of the Road
Commission's directive.
Commissioner Smith stated there is no provision defined by ordinance to give the Road Commission the power to
form an official group of auxiliary citizens as a Road Commission Auxiliary. We have citizens that can assist us in work parties but he didn't see
where the Ordinance enables us to make them an official group.
Chair Quandt stated they would not be given voting power or a say in decisions and disagreed with Commissioner
Smith.
Commissioner Sathe stated that the formation of such a group would enable the Road Commission to have a group
of citizens who are up to speed to replace the 3 Road Commission vacancies that will be opening up next year. He stated that he has served in this
capacity himself before he officially became a member of the Road Commission.
Commissioner Sathe made the motion to create a Road Commission Auxiliary, motion seconded by Commissioner
Curran.
Gary Baker stated the formation of a Road Auxiliary could create an ideal situation as it would basically
provide for Road Commissioners in training. Also the involvement of such a group might give the Road Commission a wider audience and more support
by community members.
Commissioner Smith stated his reluctance to support the motion is that the formation of an Auxiliary Road
Commission is not one of the Commission's enumerated directions and stated the Road Commission is not like the Elks. The Road Commission must
abide by City Laws and we do not have the power to form an auxiliary group. He also stated that having to print out perhaps 50 extra Road
Commission packets is pushing out the scope of our duties and increasing staff's work load.
Commissioner Curran asked for a roll call vote.
Chair Quandt asked for a vote for the motion and the second that is on the table.
The motion and second were passed by 3 (ayes) and 2 (nays) with Commissioner Smith and Owen voting against. Motion approved.
Commissioner Curran reported on an illegal sign on
Hilltop Road
that is right in the middle of the road and stated the Road Commission needs to get the sign removed and the residents should be notified.
Chair Quandt stated he will talk to the property owners.
Commissioner Sathe reported that there is a "kids playing" sign on Hilltop and recommended that a
"Children at Play" sign that complies with code should be placed there and he would personally install it.
J. Adjournment
Commissioner Smith made the motion to adjourn the January 18, 2010 Road Commission meeting at
9:03 PM
, motion seconded by Commissioner Persons. Motion to adjourn was unanimously approved by 5 (ayes) and 0 (nays).
