Good morning everyone. It is Tuesday, October 7th. We'll call the Wright County Board of Commissioners to order. We'll begin with the pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. It is great to see a room filled again. Uh it tells us that we have great and important information to discuss. Uh, first item on the agenda today is the approval of the minutes from the September 23rd meeting. At this time, I'll stand for a motion to approve or for modifications. >> I'll make that motion. >> We have a motion by Commissioner Holland. >> Second. Second by Commissioner Mina. Any discussion hearing? None. All in favor say I. >> I. Same sign. All right. Minutes are approved unanimous. Second is today's agenda.

Um the original resolution was October 31st. So it's about 10 days. We're actually hoping to to speed it up and go a little a little bit earlier in the month of October, but with encountering this issue, um we're asking that the date be extended to November 10th, 2025. And also with respect to that amended resolution, uh there may be the necessity of some litigation to uh figure out the issue that we've encountered with the department of correction regarding the vacation and sick time uh responsibility. So uh we're asking to utilize the services of of John Edison's law firm. We've already engaged him with a letter that he wrote to the Department of Corrections addressing our position with respect to this issue. Uh, so we're asking to um have the board authorize litigation with the Department …
