All of the interest on the Bonds shall be payable commencing

December 1, 2016, and semiannually thereafter on the first day of June

and December in each year. Payment of interest on the Bonds shall be

made to the registered owners appearing on the registration books of

the County at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the month

next preceding the interest payment date and shall be paid by check or

draft mailed to the registered owners at the addresses shown on such

5420

registration books. Principal of the Bonds shall be payable in lawful

money of the United States of America to the registered owners or their

legal representatives upon presentation and surrender of the Bond or

Bonds at the office of the Paying Agent. Interest on the Bonds will be

calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day

months.

The Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the County with the

official manual or facsimile signature of the Chairperson of the Board

and attested with the official manual or facsimile signature of the

County Auditor, and shall be fully registered Bonds without interest

coupons. In case any officer whose signature or the facsimile of whose

signature appears on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before

the delivery of the Bonds, such signature or such facsimile signature

shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same

as if such officer had remained in office until delivery.

The Bonds shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose

until the Certificate of Authentication thereon shall have been signed

by the Registrar.

The Bonds shall be fully registered as to principal and interest

in the names of the owners on the registration books of the County kept

by the Registrar, and after such registration, payment of the principal

thereof and interest thereon shall be made only to the registered

owners or their legal representatives or assigns. Each Bond shall be

transferable without cost to the registered owner thereof only upon the

registration books of the County upon presentation to the Registrar,

together with either a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to

the Registrar or the assignment form thereon completed and duly

executed by the registered owner or the duly authorized attorney for

such registered owner.

The record and identity of the owners of the Bonds shall be kept

confidential as provided by Section 22.7 of the Code of Iowa.

Section 4. Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, the

Bonds shall be issued initially as Depository Bonds, with one fully

registered Bond for each maturity date, in principal amounts equal to

the amount of principal maturing on each such date, and registered in

the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company,

New York, New York (“DTC”). On original issue, the Bonds shall be

deposited with DTC for the purpose of maintaining a book-entry system

for recording the ownership interests of its participants and the

transfer of those interests among its participants (the

“Participants”). In the event that DTC determines not to continue to

act as securities depository for the Bonds or the County determines not

to continue the book-entry system for recording ownership interests in

the Bonds with DTC, the County will discontinue the book-entry system

with DTC. If the County does not select another qualified securities

depository to replace DTC (or a successor depository) in order to

continue a book-entry system, the County will register and deliver

replacement Bonds in the form of fully registered certificates, in

authorized denominations of $5,000 or integral multiples of $5,000, in

accordance with instructions from Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. In

the event that the County identifies a qualified securities depository

to replace DTC, the County will register and deliver replacement Bonds,

fully registered in the name of such depository, or its nominee, in the

denominations as set forth above, as reduced from time to time prior to

maturity in connection with redemptions or retirements by call or

payment, and in such event, such depository will then maintain the

book-entry system for recording ownership interests in the Bonds.

Ownership interests in the Bonds may be purchased by or through

Participants. Such Participants and the persons for whom they acquire

interests in the Bonds as nominees will not receive certificated Bonds,

but each such Participant will receive a credit balance in the records

of DTC in the amount of such Participant’s interest in the Bonds, which

will be confirmed in accordance with DTC’s standard procedures. Each

such person for which a Participant has an interest in the Bonds, as

nominee, may desire to make arrangements with such Participant to have

all notices of redemption or other communications of the County to DTC,

which may affect such person, forwarded in writing by such Participant

and to have notification made of all interest payments.

5421

The County will have no responsibility or obligation to such

Participants or the persons for whom they act as nominees with respect

to payment to or providing of notice for such Participants or the

persons for whom they act as nominees.

As used herein, the term “Beneficial Owner” shall hereinafter be

deemed to include the person for whom the Participant acquires an

interest in the Bonds.

DTC will receive payments from the County, to be remitted by DTC

to the Participants for subsequent disbursement to the Beneficial

Owners. The ownership interest of each Beneficial Owner in the Bonds

will be recorded on the records of the Participants whose ownership

interest will be recorded on a computerized book-entry system kept by

DTC.

When reference is made to any action which is required or

permitted to be taken by the Beneficial Owners, such reference shall

only relate to those permitted to act (by statute, regulation or

otherwise) on behalf of such Beneficial Owners for such purposes. When

notices are given, they shall be sent by the County to DTC, and DTC

shall forward (or cause to be forwarded) the notices to the

Participants so that the Participants can forward the same to the

Beneficial Owners.

Beneficial Owners will receive written confirmations of their

purchases from the Participants acting on behalf of the Beneficial

Owners detailing the terms of the Bonds acquired. Transfers of

ownership interests in the Bonds will be accomplished by book entries

made by DTC and the Participants who act on behalf of the Beneficial

Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing

their ownership interest in the Bonds, except as specifically provided

herein. Interest and principal will be paid when due by the County to

DTC, then paid by DTC to the Participants and thereafter paid by the

Participants to the Beneficial Owners.

time or from time to time this resolution may be amended, modified or

prescribed information repositories on a continuing basis so long as

such securities are outstanding.

On the date of issuance and delivery of the Bonds, the County

to which the County will undertake to comply with the Rule. The

Chairperson and the County Auditor are hereby authorized and directed

Bond Counsel, deem necessary to facilitate compliance with the Rule.

and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

Section 12. It is hereby determined that the County shall enter

into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with the Registrar,

Agreement on behalf of the County.

A portion of Loan Proceeds shall be deposited and invested in

accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and, as set forth

therein, when timely, shall be used to refund the Prior Bonds. The

County shall keep a detailed and segregated accounting of the

Redemption Date, the “Redemption Dates”), and is further authorized and

directed to give notice of each redemption by sending notice to each of

the registered owners of the Prior Bonds to be redeemed at the

addresses shown on the County’s registration books, not less than 30

days prior to the respective Redemption Dates and in accordance with

the terms of the resolutions authorizing the issuance of the Prior

Bonds.

5435

Section 13. The Chairman and the County Auditor are hereby

authorized and directed to sign any agreements, certificates or other

documents related to the issuance of the Series Bonds and required for

the delivery and closing of the same.

Section 14. The provisions of this resolution shall constitute a

contract between the County and the owners of the Bonds as may from

time to time be outstanding, and no change, variation or alteration of

any kind of the provisions of this resolution shall be made except as

discharged as provided in this resolution.

Section 15. For any one or more of the following purposes,

without the consent of or notice to the owners of the Bonds, and at any

time or from time to time this resolution may be amended, modified or

supplemented by the County:

(a) to cure any ambiguity or formal defect or omission in this

resolution;

(b) to grant to or confer for the benefit of the owners of the

Bonds any additional rights, remedies, powers or authority that may

lawfully be granted to or conferred upon the owners of the Bonds;

(c) to assign and pledge under this resolution additional

revenues, properties or collateral as permitted by law;

(d) to modify, amend or supplement this resolution in such

manner as to permit continued compliance with the provisions of the

Internal Revenue Code in order to maintain the tax exempt status of the

Bonds; and

(e) to make any other change that, in the judgment of the

County, does not materially adversely affect the rights of any of the

owners of the Bonds.

Section 16. In addition to amendments to this resolution

authorized by Section 15 hereof, this resolution may be amended from

time to time if such amendment shall have been consented to by the

holders of not less than two-thirds in principal amount of the Bonds at

any time outstanding, but this resolution may not be so amended without

the consent of the holders of 100% in principal amount of the Bonds at

the time outstanding in such manner as to:

(a) Make any change in the maturity or interest rate of the

Bonds, or modify the terms of payment of principal of or interest on

the Bonds or any of them or impose any conditions with respect to such

payments;

(b) Materially affect the rights of the holders of less than

all of the Bonds then outstanding; and

(c) Reduce the percentage of the principal amount of the Bonds

needed to approve amendments to this resolution.

Whenever the County shall propose to amend or modify this

resolution under the provisions of this section, it shall cause notice

of the proposed amendment to be mailed to each of the owners of the

Bonds at the addresses appearing on the registration books of the

County held by the Registrar. Such notice shall briefly set forth the

amount of the Series Bonds outstanding at the time of the adoption of

such amendatory resolution shall have consented to and approved the

5436

adoption thereof as herein provided, no owner of any Bonds shall have

any right or interest to object to the adoption of such amendatory

resolution or to object to any of the terms or provisions therein

contained or to the operation thereof or to enjoin or restrain the

County from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof.

Any consent given by the owners of a Bond pursuant to the

provisions of this section shall be irrevocable for a period of six (6)

months from the date of such consent and shall be conclusive and

binding upon all future owners of the same Bond during such period.

Such consent may be revoked at any time after six (6) months from the

date of such consent by the owner who gave such consent or by a

successor in title, but such revocation shall not be effective if the

owners of not less than two-thirds in aggregate principal amount of the

Bonds outstanding as in this section defined, shall have, prior to the

attempted revocation, consented to and approved the amendatory

resolution referred to in such revocation.

The fact and date of the execution of any instrument under the

provisions of this section may be proved by the certificate of any

officer in any jurisdiction who by the laws thereof is authorized to

take acknowledgments of deeds within such jurisdiction, that the

Public Input-Rodger Whitaker, Keokuk, asked the Board to arrange

a meeting between Keokuk Area Hospital, Fort Madison Community

Hospital, Lee County Health Department and Lee County Ambulance Service

to see what kind of impact there would be to these entities if Keokuk

Area Hospital should shut down. Whitaker said then after this meeting

the Board should put the funding request from Keokuk Area Hospital on

the agenda. Ron Becker, Wever, asked if the Board was considering

implementing an ordinance to allow ATVs on County Gravel Roads. Fedler

said that the Board had not been approached with this. Tali Froman,

President of the Keokuk Area Hospital Auxiliary, is concerned about the

loss of lives if the hospital closes. She said the hospital has an

excellent ER Staff. Roger Payne, Keokuk, asked the Board what they are

going to do about future economic troubles that are sure to come if KAH

closes. Dan Winn, Keokuk City Council, said closing the hospital would

have a far reaching impact. Marla Shafer, Montrose, thought that KAH

would be turned around by now. She read a letter from a patient that

had received care at KAH. Dorothy Cackley, Keokuk, didn't see any

reaction to Whitaker's suggestion for a meeting. She asked the Board if

they are willing to meet with these entities. She also read a statement

from the Democratic Platform. Mary VanPelt, Montrose, supports KAH. She

asked officials from KAH what they did with the 5 million dollars the

State of Iowa loaned them. She also asked them why the County cannot

see their financial books. Joe Whiting, KAH, said they used the $5

million to retire liabilities, infrastructure improvements and they

were able to give the employees a raise. They have been making payments

to the State on a regular basis. They will be discussing a

restructuring of the loan with the State. Al Nelson, Keokuk, thanked

everyone for attending the meeting and for being concerned about the

hospital. Whiting said they have been having discussions with Great

River Medical Center in Burlington and the University of Iowa Hospital

in Iowa City. Cindy Iutzi, Daily Gate City, asked Fedler why he is

refusing to put the funding request on an agenda. Fedler said it was

voted on at the last Board meeting to not put it on the agenda. Iutzi

asked each Board Member why they voted in the manner they voted.

Hunold, who voted not to put it on an agenda, said he wants to see the

financial books. Pflug, who voted yes to put it on an agenda, said it

is a matter of lives. Larkin, who voted no, thought he was voting on

the funding. Folluo, who voted yes, said he is on the Lee County

Economic Development Board and he is looking at it as retention of

jobs. He also wants to listen to the citizens in his district. Fedler,

who voted no, said he wants to see KAH survive but they should look at

merging with another hospital. Whiting said there is a bill in Congress

called the Reach Act that would help KAH out. Whitaker said KAH has

doctors come from other hospitals. Folluo asked what the original

turnaround time was. Whiting thought it was 3 years but now they have

extended the contract with Fitch Healthcare Consulting to January of

2018. Marla Payne, Keokuk, said that the hospital has to appear

5440

appealing to another hospital. In order to get solvent KAH needs to

pursue every avenue of funding. Larkin asked if the hospital would

close if the County does not give them the matching funding. Whiting

said that it would not and he does not want to send that message to the

employees. Pflug said how do you put a cost on lives and asked why

Illinois and Missouri were not contributing when so many of their

residents use the hospital. Our job is to provide good service. I would

not let Fort Madison lose their hospital. I think territories are

playing into this. Fedler said that Green Bay Drainage District came to

the Board asking for money and they are in his district. After

researching, he determined that it was not in the interest of the whole

County to give them funds. Pflug said if you have level headed people

at the table, this funding should be happening. Larkin asked if the

hospital was optimistic about the Reach Act Bill passing. Whiting said

he cannot get an answer from anyone on when they will be voting on it.

Larkin asked if they have a plan if the bill does not pass. Whiting

said that if this bill does not pass, Congressman Loebsack has proposed

another bill. Larkin asked Whitaker about the meeting he proposed.

Whitaker said these entities would be affected and the financial

problems that KAH are facing right now would move north. Pflug said it

could affect FMCH. Whiting said FMCH would soon fail. Pflug said he

thought the meeting between the Health Care entities is a good idea.

Larkin agreed. Linda Atterberg, KAH employee, said people would move

out of Lee County. VanPelt asked Whiting if the hospital is willing to

open their financial books. Whiting said he would have to check with

the hospital board. VanPelt then asked Fedler if this matter could be

put back on a future agenda. Fedler said he would have to hear new

information. Hunold said the meeting with the entities is a good idea

but people are going to have to accept the outcome. Pflug asked Cackley

and Froman if they would organize the meeting.

Arin Jones, Quad-County Community Partnerships for Protecting

Children Coordinator, read the following Proclamation:

CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, child abuse and neglect persists as one of the most serious

public health problems and is a community condition and problem; and

WHEREAS, every Lee County child is entitled to be cared for, secure,

and protected from verbal, sexual, emotional and physical abuse, and

neglect; and

WHEREAS, social acceptance of myths about child abuse silences victims

and encourages public denial about the true nature of this tragic

epidemic; and

WHEREAS, the majority of child abuse cases stem from situations and

conditions that are preventable in an engaged and supportive community;

and

WHEREAS, child maltreatment occurs when people find themselves in

stressful situations, without community resources, and without healthy

coping skills; and

WHEREAS, the effects of child abuse and neglect are felt by whole

communities and finding solutions depends on involvement among people

in the community; and

WHEREAS, for real change to happen, child abuse prevention needs to be

addressed by the entire community; and

WHEREAS, all citizens should be educated that child abuse prevention is

possible and become involved in supporting parents to raise their

children in a safe, nurturing environment; and

WHEREAS, effective child abuse prevention programs succeed because of

partnerships created among families, social service agencies, schools,

5441

government, faith communities, civic organizations, law enforcement,

and the business community; and

WHEREAS, everyone in the community benefits from less child

maltreatment which leads to happier, healthier, more productive

communities.

NOW, THEREFORE, I Ron Fedler, representing the Lee County Board of

Supervisors, do hereby proclaim April 2016 as Child Abuse Prevention

Month in Lee County, Iowa and call to the attention of our citizens,

community agencies, religious organizations, medical facilities,

schools, and businesses the issue of child abuse and its prevention. We

urge all to dedicate their energies to cherishing and protecting Lee

County children, thereby strengthening the communities in which we

live.

Resolution #2016-78

A resolution of the Board of Supervisors approving Business Property

WHEREAS, the Code of Iowa, Chapter 426C provides for a business

applications filed in their office be allowed to receive said credit

for taxes payable in 2016-2017 EXCEPT those parcels that did not

qualify to receive said credit as of March 15, 2016;

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED, by the Lee County Board of

Supervisors that all filed applications for the Business Property Tax

Credit received on or before March 15, 2016 be allowed except for those

parcels which are recommended for disallowance per Code of Iowa Chapter

426C.4(1) and 426C.4(1)(b).

The second reading of an ATV Ordinance was the next item on the agenda.

The Board allowed comments from the Public. Al Nelson, Keokuk, hopes the

ordinance is enforced. Jim Lemberger, Wever, is opposed to the ordinance. He

said that the riders are not protected, the ATVs do not have license plates

and there is not enough personnel available to enforce the ordinance.

Lemberger also said that they are very noisy. Harry Sylvester, Fort Madison,

said that ATVs are not manufactured for roads. Nancy Booten, Lee County

Recorder, said she has seen people riding ATVs three abreast and how can you

5459

identify who is riding if there are no license plates. She also asked where

the money is going to come from if the roads get damaged. Dr. Charles

Jennisen, with the University of Iowa Hospital, does research on ATV

accidents. He said 60 percent of ATV deaths occur on roadways and 49 percent

of these deaths are on gravel roads. Two thirds of deaths do not involve

another vehicle. Riders are more likely to get head injuries on roads. ATVs

are not designed for roadway use. The tires have special tread. They also

have a high center of gravity and roll over easily. The County may be

assuming liability if they pass this ordinance. An ATV Park may be the

solution. If the County passes the ordinance, he would like to see helmets

required. He would also like to see that seatbelts be made mandatory in those

vehicles that have seat belts.

Moved by Folluo, seconded by Pflug, to table the second reading of the

ATV Ordinance until further questions are answered. Roll call: Folluo-aye,

Pflug-aye, Hunold-aye and Fedler-aye. Motion carried.

Moved by Pflug, seconded by Hunold, to approve a Fund Transfer of Eight

Hundred Thirty Eight Thousand Three Hundred Seven Dollars from Rural Basic to

The second reading of an Ordinance allowing ATVs to be operated

on County Roads was next on the agenda. Fedler opened it up for public

comments. Jim Lemberger, Wever, pointed out to the Board that

manufacturers of ATVs say they are for off road use only. Ron Becker,

Wever, said there is a better chance of getting hurt on a motorcycle.

Randy Augustine, Wever, has problems with ATV riders on his property.

When he calls the Sheriff, the riders retaliate against him. Gary

Woolverton, Donnellson, said danger exists in life no matter what you

do. Randy Weisinger, Fort Madison, said other states are open to ATVs

and it brings tourism in. Lemberger said data needs to be collected to

make an informed decision. He thinks that the County should not open

itself up for problems. Al Nelson, Keokuk, said the County should look

into establishing an ATV Park. Mary VanPelt, disagreed with Nelson's

statement. She said the liability of an ATV Park would be too high.

Pflug asked Conservation Director Tom Buckley if he had problems with

ATVs in the County Parks. Buckley said they write 12-15 tickets a year.

The main problem is the damage they do to the terrain. He is not

opposed to recreation. Tim Painter, Wever, said that a high percentage

of the people that signed the petition are law abiding responsible

citizens. Steve Reuther, Fort Madison, is in favor of the ordinance.

Augustine said that people from out of state would be coming over to

Lee County to ride if the ordinance is passed. Fedler closed the public

comment portion. It was moved by Hunold, seconded by Pflug, to approve

the Second Reading of the ordinance allowing ATVs to be operated on

County Roads. Roll call: Hunold-aye, Pflug-nay, Folluo-nay, Larkin-nay

Resolution #2016-84

Resolution for Appropriations FY2017

Whereas, it is desired to make a separate appropriation for each of the

different offices and departments for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1,

2016 in accordance with Section 331.434, Subsection 6, Code of Iowa.

The board shall appropriate, by resolution, the amounts deemed

necessary for each of the different county offices and departments

during the ensuing fiscal year. Increases or decreases in these

appropriations do not require a budget amendment, but may be

provided by resolution at a regular meeting of the board, as long

as each class of proposed expenditures contained in the budget

summary published under subsection 3 of this section is not

increased. However, decreases in appropriations for a county

officer or department of more than ten percent or five thousand

dollars, whichever is greater, shall not be effective unless the

board sets a time and place for a public hearing on the proposed

decrease and publishes notice of the hearing not less than ten nor

more than twenty days prior to the hearing in the county newspapers

selected under chapter 349.

Now, Therefore, be it Resolved, by the Board of Supervisors of Lee


Section 1. The amounts by department or office on the attached

schedule are hereby appropriated to the department or office listed in

the first column on the attached schedule for a period beginning July

1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

Section 2. Subject to the provisions of other county procedures and

regulations, and applicable state law, the appropriations authorized

under Section 1 shall constitute authorization for the department or

officer listed to make expenditures or incur obligations effective July

1, 2016.

Section 3. No department or officer shall expend or contract to expend

any money or incur any liability, or enter into any contract, which by

its terms involves the expenditure of money for any purpose in excess

of the amounts appropriated pursuant to this resolution in with Section

331.437, Code of Iowa:

It is unlawful for a county official, the expenditures of whose

office come under this part, to authorize the expenditure of a sum

for the official's department larger than the amount which has been

appropriated for that department by the board.

5473

A county official in charge of a department or office who violates

this law is guilty of a simple misdemeanor. The penalty in this

section is in addition to the liability imposed in section 331.476.

Section 4. If at any time during the Budget Year 2016-2017, the

Auditor shall ascertain that the available resources of a department

for that year will be less than said department’s total appropriation,

he/she shall immediately so inform the board and recommend appropriate

corrective action.

Section 5. The Auditor shall establish separate accounts for the

appropriations authorized in Section 1, each of which account shall

indicate the amount of the appropriation, the amounts charged thereto,

and the unencumbered balance. The Auditor shall report the status of

such accounts to the applicable departments and officers monthly during

the Budget Year 2016-2017.

Section 6. All appropriations authorized pursuant to this resolution

lapse at the close of business June 30, 2017.

Dated at Montrose, Iowa on the 28th day of June, 2016.

Enter into a five and a half (5.5) year lease agreement for total

payments of $64,572.50 with $4,415 and trade in being paid the first

an option to purchase.

WHEREAS, Section 331.477 requires that authorization pursuant to

section 331.478 and 479 be obtained prior to incurring any noncurrent

debt including those by an installment purchase contract. Because this

institute a proceeding for the occurrence of any debt authorized by

section 331.478(2) the Board shall provide for a public hearing and

publish notice of the same in accordance with section 331.305. At the

meeting the Board shall receive oral or written objections from any

resident or property owner of the county. After all objections have

been received and considered the Board may at that time or some

subsequent date consider approval or object the proposed noncurrent

debt.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that a public hearing be set for

the Lee County Conservation Building, 2652 Hwy 61, Montrose, Iowa on

the 12th day of July, 2016, at 9:10 o’clock a.m. to consider the

following proposal:

BE IT RESOLVED that the Lee County Conservation Board is

authorized to incur noncurrent debt in the form of an installment

purchase contract/lease entered into by and between the Conservation

Board and J. J. Nichting Company for the purchase of a tractor. With

payments over five and a half (5.5) years as follows: $4,415 the first

year and $7,915 each year thereafter for a total of 5.5 years equaling

payments of $64,572.50 with an option thereafter to purchase the

tractor.

5475

Following the public hearing the Board may consider granting

Dated this the 28th day of June, 2016.

subsequent date consider approval or reject the proposed noncurrent

debt.

WHEREAS, Lee County has held the public hearing as required and

published notice thereof.

BE IT RESOLVED that the Lee County Conservation Board is

authorized to incur noncurrent debt in the form of an installment

purchase contract/lease entered into by and between the Conservation

Board and J. J. Nichting Company for the purchase of a tractor. With

There was discussion held on a possible study group on the impact

of raising the minimum wage in Lee County. Input from the public was

allowed. Jennifer Hauff, Keokuk, related her struggles with minimum

wage jobs. Tracy VanHyning, Fort Madison, talked about the poverty she

sees as a letter carrier. She said the raise in the wage would be in

increments and should have little impact on businesses. Mike Bennett,

Donnellson, said the current minimum wage does not lift people up out

of poverty. If the Board approves the study group, it should be a cross

section of residents in Lee County. Robert Cale, Fort Madison, said 29

states have a higher minimum wage than Iowa. It has been 9 years since

the last increase. Tom Marion, Keokuk, said the City of Keokuk will

support a raise in the minimum wage. Kathy Gabel, Keokuk, wants to be

part of the study group. Becky Heagy, Fort Madison, said if she

received more money it would go right back into the community. She

worked in retail and has noticed shoplifting is on the rise as well as

more EBT card use. Tom Cale, Fort Madison, said 80 percent of Iowans

support a raise in the minimum wage. Todd Marshall, Keokuk, said some

people have to choose between medicine or food. Chairman of the Board

Fedler agreed to put a resolution on the September 13th agenda and

appointed Supervisors Hunold and Pflug to the Study Group.

Public Input-Steve Wilson gave the Board a handout regarding

proper public relations on pipeline operations. He asked to meet with

Ryan Drenner, the County's pipeline inspector, to ask questions about

the pipeline installment in Lee County. Brenda Knox is concerned about

the security at the pipeline installation site and is also concerned

about wastewater that is being dumped at the site. Josh Smith asked the

Supervisors if they were aware that the Lee County Sheriff's Office is

arresting members of the press. Mandy Land is concerned about the

behavior of some of the Sheriff's Deputies and said they are at the

site when nothing is happening. Nathan Land is also concerned about

some safety issues at the pipeline site stating that the security firm

hired by Precision Pipeline is overstepping its authority. Kevin

Gilbert supported Land's claims stating that the security company is

blocking the roadway with cars and taking pictures of the protesters.

He suggested that the hours the Sheriff's Office spends at the site

should be documented by an independent person. Esther Tweedy has

noticed a different attitude towards the protesters coming from the

Sheriff's Office and the security company. She is a taxpayer of Lee

County and does not think that the Sheriff's Office should be spending

so much time at the site. Kathleen Phipps-Winfrey asked the Board if

they would consider having an evening board meeting. Frank Cordero

asked how the Sheriff's Office can get reimbursed for the overtime.

J.C. Hofeditz stated that if the County were to bill Precision Pipeline

for overtime hours for the Sheriff's Deputies that would be like

moonlighting. Mary VanPelt asked who was paying the security company.

She also said that the World Record tulip planting at the Conservation

Center was fabulous. VanPelt then refuted a letter to the editor

stating that the Courthouse Bond Referendum would cost more than what

was stated by the County. She also said that the rudeness, disrespect,

harassment and bullying needs to stop between the two factions of the

bond referendum. Harry Sylvester mentioned that every school in Lee

County participated in the tulip planting. Larkin said there are a lot

of issues that divide the County but the students planting the tulips

showed him that people can work together.

Moved by Pflug, seconded by Larkin, to approve a Class E Liquor

License with a Class B Native Wine and Sunday Sales for Garner One

subdivision.

5. There is a statement from the proprietor, that the plat is

11. The Lee County Health Department has reviewed the proposed

subdivision and has accepted the lot size as having adequate

surface space for appropriate on-site sewage systems on each lot.

12. The Auditor has reviewed the proposed name of the subdivision and
