(5) Minutes:

On a motion by Commissioner Wolf, seconded by Commissioner Weckman Brekke the Minutes of April

(6) Leadership: Anticipating Changes and Managing Challenges Based on Reliable Information and
Citizen Input:

A. Health and Human Services Director Pam Selvig explained the New Options Program is a day training
and habilitation (DT & H) program. State and federal policy changes and rate structure changes will affect the
program and levy dollars may be needed to support the program and options are being explored as to how
best provide DT & H services. Ms. Selvig stated the purpose of todays agenda item is to receive public
comment on the New Options program and no decisions will be made today.

The following individuals stated concerns and expressed support for the New Options program. Paula
Neisen, Paul Wise, Linda Thramer, Jennifer Deschaine, Denise Ryan, Don McNeil, Maureen Tegmeier, Lynn
Wise on behalf of Deb Fell, Tom Fix, Soraida Castillo, Jeff Loney, Jeff Sexton, Jerry Hennen, Tim Plekkenpol,
Lester Schauer, Ann Young, Mary Miller, Larry Schawzenbach, Lori Paulus, Noreen Seuer, and Denise
Scherer. The following is a summary of the comments.

Life choices for clients are important and valuable.


The Olmstead Act lacks in the supportive tools needed to support its success. If the rate structure
doesnt change, no program or residence will be able to support the vision of the Olmstead Act.
Standard law doesnt work for all people.
Not all clients are able to work in the community.
New Options has operated levy free; however, the Olmstead Act will cause a financial burden.
New Options serves clients with a wide range of abilities.
Change can be very difficult for DT & H clients. While other DT & H providers experience staff
shortages and a high rate of staff turnover, New Options has an experienced and stable staff.
Many clients at New Options have medical issues and New Options has a full-time nurse on duty. This
is not true for all DT & H providers.
Occupational therapy is also provided at New Options.
All DT & H programs will be affected by the rate structure changes. How can providers take on
additional clients at a lesser rate when they already have staffing issues. Vulnerable individuals who
cannot self-report or self-advocate would be placed in programs that are already struggling.
The decision to contract out services should be based on fact and not on forecast.
Other County programs besides New Options could be considered to have a conflict of interest.
New Options tenured staff provides quality care and understands the individual needs of each client.
Staff is very loving, compassionate, and dedicated. They are angels without wings.
Client interaction with peers is important.
Private providers cannot match pay and benefits for employees at New Options which results in staff
shortages and high turnover.
Scott County is the only county in Minnesota left with this type of program. The feeling is enough
politicians and citizens in Scott County care about our most vulnerable citizens.
Rather than changing, New Options should be considered a role model for other programs.
Quality of life for clients will go down if the New Options program is eliminated.
There is uncertainty as to the impact on the budget and staffing needs under the Olmstead Plan.
A suggestion was made to have a group of parents and management meet to discuss how to keep the
New Options program operating.
Watching tax dollars needs to be balanced with doing whats right for our citizens.
If we cant take care of our most vulnerable adults, we live in a very sick, sinful, sinking society.
Various activities that clients participate in at New Options were noted. Dances are held on the first
Wednesday of each month and the Commissioners were invited to attend.
An effort should be made to get more members of the public to volunteer at New Options.
New Options is a home away from home for the clients. Examples of clients successes and happiness
in attending New Options were given. Family members high comfort level with staff was also
expressed.

Speaking on behalf of the Board of Commissioners, Chair Beard recognized the sobriety of the of the
situation and the award-winning accomplishments of New Options. Chair Beard recognized the staff, noting
they have a special calling in life. He also recognized the integrity and ethics of staff who oversee New
Options. Federal and state regulations interfering with local government programs and the frustration of local
elected officials being pulled in several different directions was addressed. Chair Beard asked for prayers for
the Board of Commissioners as they work with state and federal officials regarding the impending changes.
Chair Beard thanked everyone in attendance today and for the information. He also noted that staff will
continue to provide further information to the Board. He reiterated no decision will be made in the near term.
On a final note, Chair Beard commended volunteers who serve the Countys New Options Program and stated
these volunteers are also angels without wings.

Chair Beard recessed the meeting at 10:06 a.m. and reconvened at 10:15 a.m.

(8) Stewardship: Ensuring the Responsible and Stable Investment of Taxpayer Dollars and
Communicating its Value to the Public:

A. Commissioner Weckman Brekke stated although she understands the reasoning for the broadness in
the request for allowing access to property for survey and environmental testing purposes, she does not
support it.

Transportation Planning Director Lisa Freese reported Scott County is working on a project in coordination
with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), Jackson Township and Louisville Township for the
improvement of the Trunk Highway (TH) 169 corridor by the construction of an interchange at TH 41/County
Highway (CH) 78 and an overpass at CH 14 with an extension of the frontage road system along TH 169. The
project is in the planning and development stage which includes identification of the need for and completion of
Phase II Environmental Site Assessments and completing other environmental analyses. In order to complete
this work, it is necessary for the County/MnDOT staff and contractors to enter properties that may be impacted
by the project. Four properties have provided the needed access to complete the work; however, one
commercial property is not cooperating with providing access. Minnesota Statute states access can be
obtained upon resolution of a political subdivision and a court order if voluntary access is not obtained. Ms.
Freese stated the resolution has been revised to include the specific address and legal description of the one
property not cooperating with granting access.

Commissioner Weckman Brekke moved, seconded by Commissioner Wolf to adopt Resolution No. 2017-
061; Authorizing Access to Properties Addressed 12835 Ventura Court, Including Both Parcels Legally
Described a Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Emerald Park 2nd Addition in Jackson Township That are Potentially
Impacted by the Trunk Highway (TH) 169/TH 41/County Highway (CH) 78/CH 14 Improvement Project for
Survey and Environmental testing Purposes. A copy of the resolution is available in the office of the County
Administrator and is made a part of this record by reference. The motion carried unanimously.

(9) Customer Service: Creating a Customer Experience That is Respectful, Responsive and Solution-
Oriented:

Business Information/Systems Specialist Troy Pint announced the 2016 Second Quarter Spirit of Scott
Awards have been presented to Information Technology Manager Janelle Day, Social Work Case Manager
Christina Lopez, Financial Assistance Specialist Leslie Letson, and Social Work Case Manager Nichole Smith
for going above and beyond in the area of excellence in customer service.

(10) Commitment: Developing a High Quality Workforce That is Dedicated to Advancing a Safe, Health
and Livable Community:

Commissioner moved, seconded by Commissioner to adopt Resolution No. 2017-053; Proclaiming May 5-
13, 2017 as Correctional Officers Week in Scott County. A copy of the resolution is available in the office of
the County Administrator and is made a part of this record by reference. The motion carried unanimously.

(11) Leadership: Anticipating Changes and Managing Challenges Based on Reliable Information and
Citizen Input Continued:

B. Commissioner Wolf moved, seconded by Commissioner Weckman Brekke to open the public hearing
to receive public comment on the implementation of portable recording devices, also known as body worn
camera, for deputies who are licensed peace officers at 10:36 a.m. The motion carried unanimously.

Captain Steve Collins stated the Sheriffs Office is updating policies to align with new laws and Minnesota
State Statute requires a public hearing be held before a local law enforcement agency purchases or
implements a portable recording system.

Hearing no public comment, Commissioner Wolf moved, seconded by Commissioner Ulrich to close the
public hearing at 10:39 a.m.
C. Natural Resources and Environmental Services Manager Paul Nelson presented the Scott Watershed
Management Organization (WMO) 2016 Annual Report and Newsletter which included a review of 2016
activities and expenses and an overview for 2017.

Commissioner Wolf moved, seconded by Commissioner Weckman Brekke to authorize release of the
2016 Scott Watershed Management Organization Annual Report and Newsletter. The motion carried
unanimously.

(12) Stewardship: Ensuring the Responsible and Stable Investment of Taxpayer Dollars and
Communicating its Value to the Public Continued:

B. Mr. Nelson requested approval to amend the Scott WMO 2017 budget which the County Board
approved on November 15, 2016. The current Amendment being considered is based on a 2016 end-of-year
financial assessment and is necessary to roll forward the 2016 budget amounts for projects that were started in
2016 but will be completed in 2017. The Amendment does not affect the 2017 levy. Mr. Nelson reported the
Amendment was reviewed at the April 24, 2017 Watershed Planning Commission meeting where approval was
recommended.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the request for an Interim Use Permit (PL#2017-07) for Mark
Wangerin, applicant, to operate a home extended business for the operation of an excavation business located
in Section 24, of Spring Lake Township, zoned RR-1, Rural Residential Reserve District.

Mark Wangerin is requesting an Interim Use Permit (IUP) to operate an excavating business as a home
extended business. Mr. Wangerin owns a 10 acre parcel at 19605 Mushtown Road which is located in Section
24, Spring Lake Township, and is zoned Rural Residential Reserve, RR-1. The Zoning Ordinance allows
home extended businesses through an IUP, provided the business and property meet the performance
standards for home businesses in the RR-1 zoning district.
Mr. Wangerin constructed his home and began operating his excavating business from this location in 1988.
County staff, on inspection noted equipment stored outside, and informed Mr. Wangerin that he needed to
obtain an IUP for a home business from Scott County. Mr. Wangerin operates Marks Bobcat Service with two
of his sons.

They have four trucks that are used for the excavating business and the farm operation, along with trailers, as
well as Bobcats, a small bulldozer, two mini excavators and one excavator/backhoe. The equipment is
currently stored within and behind a 4,000 sq. ft. accessory building located behind the home. Mr. Wangerin is
in the process of constructing a 65 x 144 fabric covered building for agricultural equipment and hay storage.
Mr. Wangerin raises cattle and farms approximately 150 acres within close proximity to his home.

Staff is comfortable with the four business vehicles noting that Mr. Wangerins business is currently limited to
himself and two sons. He has no intentions to grow beyond this number of employees and the equipment is
used for both his agricultural operation and excavating business. The County has not received any complaints
with the business having been in operation during the past 29 years. Any modifications to the structure shall
require County approval and must be in compliance with Minnesota State Building Codes.

This action was recommended by the Scott County Planning Advisory Commission on April 10, 2017, in
accordance with Chapters 3, 8 and 33 of the Scott County Zoning Ordinance No. 3 based on the criteria for
approval and Conditions of Approval listed below:

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the request for an amended Interim Use Permit (PL#2017-021)
for Oldcastle Materials Group (OMG).

This action was recommended by the Planning Advisory Commission on May 08, 2017.

In 2004, LeRoy Chard of Chard Tiling & Excavating, Inc. made an application for an Environmental
Assessment Work Sheet (EAW) and an Interim Use Permit (IUP) for mining. The IUP was to establish a sand
and gravel mine on a portion of his 173.9 acre property in Sections 3 and 10, Blakeley Township. The site is
located approximately one mile west of the City of Belle Plaine. The request was to extract, screen, crush,
stockpile, transport, and market aggregates from about half (67 acres) of the project parcel. The request did
not include explosives, washing, hot asphalt preparation, or ready mix concrete preparation.

The project included the extraction of 5,500,000 cubic yards of material from the site. Based on this projected
volume of aggregate material, this mining operation is one of the largest in Scott County.

The IUP was approved by the County Board on April 26, 2005. A copy of the IUP including Conditions is
attached.

OMG Midwest doing business as Sibley Aggregates, Chard Tiling and Excavating Inc., is leasing the site from
LeRoy Chard and is requesting to remove a portion of Condition 5 of the of the approved conditions.

5. This Interim Use Permit is issued specifically to LeRoy Chard (Sibley Aggregate Mine) and if the
property is sold or leased, or the use changed, the Interim Use Permit shall become void.

OMG Midwest is requesting that the portion of the condition that relates to leasing be removed so that OMG
Midwest can be allowed to continue mining the pit as in the past. This condition voids the permit if LeRoy
Chard leases the mine. OMG is proposing to operate the mine in the same manner as LeRoy Chard even
utilizing many of the same employees. LeRoy Chard will continue to own and lease the pit to OMG Midwest
doing business as Sibley Aggregates, Chard Tiling and Excavating, Inc. and will continue to operate under all
the conditions of the Permit.

Its not in the Countys interest to void the permit when the resources are available, the mining has been
occurring without issue for 12 years, the new operator will operate in the same manner as the existing, and the
reclamation plan is not complete. Staff recommends amending Condition five of the IUP to read as follows.

5. This Interim Use Permit is issued specifically to LeRoy Chard (Sibley Aggregate Mine) and if the
property is sold or leased, or the use changed, the Interim Use Permit shall become void the new
owner/lease shall meet with the County Zoning Department and Blakeley Township to review the
conditions of the permit and transfer the permit to the new owner/lease.

Township Recommendation:
The Blakeley Town Board recommended approval of the request to amend the IUP at their April 4, 2017
meeting.

Staff Recommendation:
Sand and gravel mining is an allowed Interim Use in the A-1 zoning district. The proposed Amendment
conforms to the Zoning Ordinance; therefore, staff recommends approval of the amended Interim Use Permit
for OMG Midwest based on the criteria for approval listed below and the amendment to condition five.

Amended Condition five: the new language is underlined and old language has strikethrough.

5. This Interim Use Permit is issued specifically to LeRoy Chard (Sibley Aggregate Mine) and if the
property is sold or leased, or the use changed, the Interim Use Permit shall become void the
new owner/lease shall meet with the County Zoning Department and Blakeley Township to
review the conditions of the permit and transfer the permit to the new owner/lease.
Criteria for Approval:
1. Adequate Drainage Existing drainage patterns and discharge rates shall be maintained throughout all
phases of the mining activity. The requested amendment will not change the drainage at the facility.

2. Adequate Potable Water Supply The homestead property is serviced by a private well. No bathroom
or other high water usage facility has been proposed for the project site

3. Adequate Roads or Highways to Serve the Development The proposed IUP site is served by County
Road 6, a paved County highway. The proposed amendment will not impact the County Road.

4. Adequate Waste Disposal Systems No additional septic system facilities were requested.

5. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan The proposed IUP amendment conforms to the goals and
policies in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan.

6. Public Service Capacity The proposed Interim Use does not significantly impact the existing public
service capacity.

7. Consistency with the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board's Policies The proposal is consistent
with the policies of the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board.

8. Consistency with Capital Improvement Plans The proposed Interim Use Permit amendment does not
require any County funded improvements; therefore it is consistent with the Countys Capital
Improvement Plan.

Fiscal Impact:

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-071; authorizing entering into an Amended
Agreement with the Minnesota Department of Agriculture to operate a septic loan program.

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (DOA) provides funds to Scott County to operate a septic loan
program using the DOA Agriculture Best Management Practices (AgBMP) Loan Program. Through this
program, the Environmental Services department has helped 46 homeowners replace their failing septic
systems and problem water wells since 2014. In addition, the Agreement allows the Scott Soil and Water
Conservation District (SWCD) to provide loans for erosion control measures, conservation tillage equipment,
and related qualifying agricultural needs. We are requesting additional funds from the DOA to fill the expected
future requests for septic and well loans, as well as those requests submitted to the SWCD.

Fiscal Impact:
No impact unless there is a default on the loan (such as a foreclosure). However, the interest collected on
existing loans will be able to cover the needed funds in the rare situation that a loan is defaulted. There is no
impact to Scott County for SWCD loans because those loans are provided by a private bank.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution 2017-069; appointing Kristin Lage as an Investment
Officer of Scott County.

On March 27, 2009, Cynthia Geis, Scott County Auditor, was appointed as the Scott County Treasurer. In the
capacity of the County Treasurer, one of the duties of the Treasurer is to invest County funds in a manner that
preserves the capital, controls credit and interest rate risks, ensures that adequate cash on hand is available to
meet short-term needs, and invests surplus funds in a fashion that meets the future cash-flow needs.
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 118A, governs the types of securities and accounts that Public Funds can be
invested in. The Scott County Treasury Management and Investment Risk Policy provides the guidelines to
preserve the capital investment, and control losses due to credit and interest rate risks.

Since 2009, the only Investment Officer of Scott County has been Cynthia Geis. Scott County has two
authorized brokers that the County conducts business with. Wangaard Investments was the firm where the
Countys long-term investments were held. The business was merged with Wells Fargo Advisors. The dollars
deposited with Wells Fargo Advisors are invested in securities in a laddered manner within mainly a five-year
window.

Short-term investments, the tax dollars that come in during the May and October timeframes, are either
distributed back to local governments during the tax settlement period, or used to cover cash flow, and are held
by the other broker: Wells Fargo Brokerage. A bank of dollars is also kept within the Wells Fargo Brokerage
account in a liquid form (money market account), to sufficiently cover emergencies, and cash flow shortages.
Securities are also acquired in this account but mature earlier than the long-term investments. These funds
are transferred back to the cash account to cover cash flow during the months when taxes are not being
collected.

Scott Countys cash account is required to collateralization for any excess funds. The Countys cash account
is held at Klein Bank. Fund transfers occur as necessary to move excess funds deposited into the Klein
account to the appropriate Wells Fargo investment account.

Scott County has never had more than one person authorized as the County Investment Officer. This can
cause challenges when the Officer becomes unavailable to conduct the business necessary on behalf of the
County and its citizens. The request is to appoint Kristin Lage as an additional Investment Officer to conduct
the duties of the Officer when the County Treasurer is unavailable.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-070, authorizing a contract increase to the
Construction Contract with Chard Tiling and Excavating, Inc. for the County Highway (CH) 16 Reconstruction
Project.

Chard Tiling and Excavating, Inc. was awarded the Contract for the road and utility reconstruction on April 5,
2016. The project, known as County Project 16-31, is located along CH 16 in the City of Shakopee from CH 83
to 600 feet east of Foothills Trail. The major work included grading, aggregate base, bituminous surface,
concrete curb and gutter, bituminous trails, storm sewer, sanitary sewer and watermain. The project is
substantially complete and open to traffic.
The Contract included the contractor to connect watermain under County Highway 21 through a steel casing
for Shakopee Public Utilities. During the installation the contractor encountered rock and cobble under the
roadbed and was unable to proceed at the designated elevation or make any forward progress. The decision
was made to lower and reroute the steel casing which required extra material, equipment and labor.
The total amount for this extra work is $117,791.80.

The County Engineers allowed maximum payment approval is 5% of the total contract amount or $50,000 per
single item by County Board policy. The original contract bid was $8,317,949.48. With the cost for the extra
steel casing and watermain work at $117,791.80, the amended Contract amount is $8,435,741.28.

Funding source is 100% Shakopee Public Utilities.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to set a hearing date of June 15, 2017 at 7 p.m. in the Blakeley Township
Hall to consider the revocation of County Highway (CH) 60 Frontage Road and County Highway 1 in Blakeley
Township.
Minnesota Statutes 163.11 sets out the powers related to county highways and states they may be
established, altered, vacated, or revoked by resolution of the county board. In the case of a revocation
to a town, the statute requires Before adopting a resolution revoking a county highway that would
revert in whole or in part to a town, the county board shall fix a date, time , and place of hearing in the
town where the highway is located to consider the revocation.

As a result of the realignment of CH 60 due to its reconstruction after the 2014 flood damage, a remnant
segment of the old highway remains which continues to provide local property access. In these cases, where
a new alignment has been constructed for the county highway, it is the Countys practice to turn these remnant
segments back to the township or city in which the project is located through the process of revocation, or
more commonly referred to as turnback.

With restoration and improvement of the CH 60 roadway, the CH 60 alignment will be redesignated as the
County State Aid Highway (CSAH) Route and the CSAH status will be removed from CH 1. Last year the
functional class of the roadways was changed at the Metropolitan Council through the Transportation Advisory
Board process to reflect this change in function. CH 1 is now functionally classed local and CH 60 has been
changed to major collector. This decision was based on the anticipated traffic changes resulting from the
improved roadway geometrics on CH 60 stemming from the improved project nearing completion. That project
on CH 60 was necessary to restore the roadway after the 2014 flood damage and closure. The County, after
closeout of the CH 60 flood project, will move forward with this CSAH system change. The County
Transportation plan sets forth a policy that local roads should be considered for jurisdictional transfer, as they
do not serve intended county system functions.

At this time, the County is undertaking a pavement project on CH 1 and prior to the completion of that project, it
would be appropriate to get Township input regarding a turnback and input as to whether other maintenance
activities should be performed prior to any turnback. After this hearing, preparation of a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) or agreement would be a possible next step

Discussions with the Blakeley Town Board have been ongoing regarding the CH 60 remnant turnback.
A joint inspection has been conducted that identified maintenance work which the County will complete
prior to official action to turnback the CH 60 road segment. In addition, an Agreement is being drafted,
and will be brought to the Board at a future date, to formalize the discussions and to provide
compensation to the Township for providing two years of maintenance on this se gment subsequent to
the effective date of turnback.

The CH 1 turnback was presented at the Comprehensive Plan outreach meeting of the western
townships held on March 20, 2017. Considering CH 1 as a turnback is consistent with the County
Board direction provided at the time the decision was made to restore CH 60 as an improved project
through the FEMA disaster program.

The County Engineer and Highway Department staff will conduct and document the Hearing as allowed
by state statute.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-074; authorizing entering into a Cooperative
Agreement with the City of Prior Lake for the closure of Kensington Avenue at County Highway (CH) 42.

The Summit Preserve development at the northeast corner of CH 42 and CH 18 is a mix of 193 single family
homes and townhomes. As part of the development, Summit Preserve is constructing a new full access street
at Aspen Avenue, a location that is consistent with the County Highway 42 Corridor Study. Kensington Avenue
is an existing City Street east of the proposed developments property. As part of the development, the
developer and City are participating in the closure of this off site roadway. The City has asked the County to
also participate in the closure of this existing roadway.
The closure of Kensington Avenue is identified in the Citys Land Use and Transportation section of its
Comprehensive Plan. The development provides an opportunity to partner with both the developer and City
and for the developer to pay for the closure of the existing Kensington Avenue access to CH 42. The closure
costs include removal of a right turn lane and closure of street connection on CH 42. This closure is a benefit
to the County road system by reducing the conflict point and improving the turn lane geometrics of the full
access point being installed by the developer.

The anticipated cost for the Countys share of the closure work is estimated $35,000. The Countys Spot
Safety Fund would be used for the Countys share of the construction work.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-076; Adopting the Computing Device Policy
and Rescinding Resolution No. 2004-089.

With the changes in electronic devices since 2004 when the Cell Phone Policy was adopted, it was time to
adopt a new policy regarding computing devices and how they are used today. This Policy defines acceptable
use, devices and how supported, and security. This Policy is intended to protect the security, privacy, and
integrity of Scott Countys data and technology infrastructure. It is the intent of this Policy to discourage the
storage of Scott County data on personally owned devices. We encourage staff to utilize the virtual private
network (VPN) when at all possible.
This policy clearly identifies three levels of users for cellular technology. It defines those employees whose:
Job necessitates cellular device and they desire to have County owned and provided technology
Job necessitates cellular device and they desire to utilize their own personal device
Job does not necessitate a cellular device but they wish to be connected to their work

These three options are all called out in the policy and have been reviewed by Senior Leadership and will meet
the needs of our workforce.

The Policy is attached.

Fiscal Impact:
None is anticipated. There is the potential for current employees utilizing their personal device to request
reimbursement per the policy.

Background/Justification:

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-077; Adopting Code of Conduct Policy and
Rescinding Resolution No. 2004-089.

As part of the Countys update to our policies it was determined to try and simplify the Countys Policy
structure. Currently there are in excess of 100 policies for County staff to be familiar with. In 2014/15 the
Countys Senior Leadership Team began a process of identifying policies that needed to be totally re-written,
eliminated, or modified. As part of that it was identified that the current system is difficult for both staff and
supervisors to utilize. With that in mind a policy revision team was established with the following goals:

Define what needs to be policy


Policies shorter and guidelines linked
Make easier for staff to locate
Clear expectations for all staff
Enable all staff to make good decisions and assist supervisors actions
Eliminate unnecessary policies

As part of the process it was determined that we would sort policies into different categories:
Administration
Code of Conduct
Finance
IT/Network
Personnel
Safety
Rescind

Since then it has been determined that the IT/Network Policies never went to the County Board for approval
and are actually department operating procedures. These will be removed from the Policy SCOOP Site. The
Administrative, Financial, Personnel, and Safety policies will be updated and come in the future for Board
approval. Several policies are being rescinded as part of the Boards action on May 16, 2017.

The Code of Conduct is an updated policy that is consolidating over 15 policies under one umbrella making it
easier for staff and supervisors to locate the information. It has been updated to PDF document that allows a
table of contents and actively being able to click on locations within the document. It also provides a guidance
document (attached) which provides relevant examples and information regarding the policy. This again is
linked to the policy and easy to move back and forth as needed. The code of conduct policy contains the
following sections:

Conflict of Interest
Driving
Drug Free and Alcohol-Free Workplace
Electronic Mailbox Management
Employee ID Badges
Employee Images
Legislative Activity
Media Relations
Political Activity
Respectful Workplace
Smoke Free Workplace
Teleworking
Time Reporting
Use of System
Weapons

The following policies are being rescinded as they are either being replaced by adoption of the Code of
Conduct policy or are not needed under current operations of the County.

Acceptable Use and Ownership of County Images Resolution #2010-07


Anti-Violence Resolution #97072

This policy will take effect July 1, 2017 after socializing through Senior Leadership for a final time and providing
adequate time for staff to ask questions and become familiar with the policy and format.

The Policy is attached.

Fiscal Impact:
None is anticipated.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-079; adopting the amended Motor Pool
Vehicle Use and Mileage Reimbursement Policy and rescinding Resolution No. 95055.

In recent years, Scott County has made a significant investment in its motor pool program to provide the
vehicles necessary for employees to perform their job functions. This Policy reflects the Countys commitment
to utilizing the investment to the maximum extent possible while balancing employee, customer, and business
needs. The County working with different work groups piloted this policy for the past several years. With some
minor tweaks the Policy appears to be working well and is being brought forward for adoption.
The updates that have been made to the Mileage Reimbursement Policy are to include motor pool vehicle
usage and responsibilities. This should help clarify the responsibilities of staff when utilizing the motor pool.
Recent improvements to the checkout process now allow employees to swipe their ID badge streamlining this
process. The fleet team continues to utilize surveys and take input on how to improve this service for our
employees.

The Policy is attached.

Fiscal Impact:
Reduction in travel costs for the County. This is tracked and presented to the Board as part of our Scott

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution 2017-046; proclaiming May 14-May 20, 2017 as Peace
Officers Week in Scott County.

In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15th as Peace Officers
Memorial Day and the week which that day falls as Police Week. This law was amended by the 103rd
Congress as part of the Violent Crime and Law Enforcement Act of 1994. President Clinton signed Public Law
103-322 which directs that the flag of the United Stated on all government buildings be displayed at half-staff
on May 15th, National Peace Officers Day.
The first official memorial service began in 1982 as a gathering in Senate Park of approximately 120 survivors
and supporters of law enforcement. Since then, National Police Week has grown to a series of events which
attracts an estimated 40,000 people to our nations capital each year to honor those who have paid the
ultimate sacrifice. There are more than 900,000 sworn law enforcement officers now serving in the United
States, which is the highest figure ever. About 12 percent of those are female. Currently there are more than
20,789 names engraved on the memorial in Washington, D.C. There were 135 law enforcement officers killed
in the line of duty in 2016, a 10% increase from 2015. Of those killed last year, 64 officers were shot and killed
- 21 were ambushed; and fifty-three officers were killed in traffic-related incidents. Among the officers who
died in 2016, the average age was 40 and the average length of service was 13 years.

The men and women that provide law enforcement in Scott County are dedicated professionals who work
every day around the clock to protect and serve the citizens that live, work, and travel through Scott County.

This resolution is to show support and appreciation and to say thank you to the men and women who serve as
Sheriffs deputies for Scott County along with all the police officers who serve the 7 cities within Scott County.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017- 067; proclaiming May 21-27, 2017
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week in Scott County.

This week we celebrate the extraordinary contributions of our EMS providers: EMS, Law Enforcement, Fire
Fighters, Nurses, Physicians, Educators, and Administration. This year the theme for EMS week is EMS
Strong: Always in Service.
The individuals who serve in these positions are highly trained and committed to providing the highest possible
service to the citizens of their communities. These men and women work to make our cities and county a safer
and healthier place to live and by their service help to raise our standard of living.

Its about so much more than lights and sirens. Its about giving the most of ourselves in the name of helping
others. Its about being there for people when things go wrongand doing our part to help make sure things go
right. Its about supporting each other when things get tough, and being there for our communities when they
look to us for help. Its about being in service to others, every day.

When thanking an EMS Provider they will always respond, Its my job, its what I do. But it is more than a job
it is a calling that takes dedication, putting their own safety in harms way at times, and making many personal
sacrifices.

Their dedication and willingness to serve is much appreciated by the Scott County All Hazard Committee and
the citizens of Scott County. This EMS Week resolution is a celebration of the services provided by these
dedicated men and women to save lives and promote a safe and healthy community.

In 1973, President Gerald Ford authorized EMS Week to celebrate EMS practitioners and the important work
they do in our nation's communities. Back then, EMS was a new profession, and EMS practitioners had only
just started to be recognized as a critical component of emergency medicine and the public health safety net.

A lot has changed since then. EMS is now firmly established as an essential public function and a vital
component of the medical care continuum. On any given day, EMS practitioners help save lives by responding
to medical emergencies, including heart attack, difficulty breathing, a fall or accident, drowning, cardiac arrest,
stroke, drug overdose, or acute illness. EMS may provide both basic and advanced medical care at the scene
of an emergency and en route to a hospital. EMS practitioners care for their patients' medical needs and show
caring and compassion to their patients in their most difficult moments.

With the development of Mobile Integrated Healthcare and Community Paramedicine (MIH-CP), EMS is also
increasingly a valued participant in achieving the nation's overall healthcare goals of improved patient health
and lowered costs.

NAEMT-ACEP EMS Week Partnership

This year, the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT) continues its partnership with
the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) on the EMS Strong campaign. Together, NAEMT and
ACEP are working to ensure that the important contributions of EMS practitioners in safeguarding the health,
safety and wellbeing of their communities are fully celebrated and recognized.

EMS Week brings together local communities and medical personnel to honor the dedication of those who
provide the day-to-day lifesaving services of medicine's "front line."

EMS Week is also an opportunity to publicize those contributions. Given the challenges facing our nation's
healthcare system and the rapid pace of change, making sure the public and other stakeholders understand
what EMS has to offer has never been more important.

Whether celebrated with a company cookout or a catered lunch, an open house, an awards ceremony, or even
quiet reflection about what it means to be an EMS practitioner, EMS Week is the perfect time to recognize
EMS and all that its practitioners do for our nation.

Fiscal Impact: None.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is for the County Board and the public to receive information regarding the
Scott County ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY program as part of the May 21-27, 2017 National Public Works Week
recognition.

The Scott County Board of Commissioners wishes to recognize the personal contributions of its citizen and
business volunteers. The ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY (AAH) volunteers generously and readily step forward to help
keep our highways clear of trash and debris. Through the work of these volunteers, the quality of life is
improved for all of Scott Countys citizens. This program and opportunity enables residents and businesses
who are environmentally conscious to make a personal contribution to a cleaner environment and engage in
helping local county government.
The Scott County ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY program started in 1992. For the past 25 years we have had a
tremendous volunteer effort of citizens and businesses that have helped keep our roadside and highway
ditches clean. It is important that we recognize these volunteers. We currently have over 140 families and
businesses who help clean nearly 400 miles in Scott County. They are recognized here today in the following
listing and are individually recognized by name on signs along the segment of highway they keep clean.

Requirements of the ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY program:

Highway Department works with groups to help select a highway to adopt.


The volunteer group agrees to a 3-year commitment to clean up their segment of highway at least twice
a year, in the spring and fall.
Typical segment length is 2 miles.
The Highway Department provides safety vests, trash bags, AAH information and procedures.
Volunteer group contacts the Highway Department for pick up and disposal of roadside filled bags and
other items.
Scott County agrees to erect a highway sign at no cost to the group to recognize the groups clean-up
efforts by name.
