We're just going to give this just a few more minutes to see if a few more people will roll in or show up online. Since there's a big rainstorm outside, people might have got delayed a little bit. Monsoons, it's beautiful. Love it, love it. So I do have a correction to something I said last week. So it's a good chance to maybe bring it up. But Sean asked me when I said that this is shaping up to be the biggest El Nino ever, as far as the temperature anomaly . And Sean said, well, what the hell does that mean? And I was like, well, that's always a good question. So I went and looked, and it's superseding 2015, was the last, kind of held the record for the biggest El Nino. And in 2015, we got 72 inches of snow. So not a prediction, but... From your lips to God's ears, we're going to have a monster powder season. So get your epic passes, what you're saying. Get your passes, there you go. Get your ski passes. Get the hell out of the drinking water, get your passes. Yeah, mine's got a fuel leak. I think I need to get it fixed. I didn't need it this year, so. Oh, hi, Mickey. And James is online, so we should probably go ahead and start. Everyone would expect. Okay, so we'll start with a roll call. We'll start with Sean.

So I pray that for all that takes place here in your name, Jesus. Amen. Amen. Amen. Darren, once again, thank you for those words of grace and wisdom to begin our meeting today.

All right, well, we got you, Abe, and thank you, Troy, for helping out with that. Everyone, let's please come to order. It is 934. Today is Tuesday, August 4th. Welcome to the Board of County Commissioners Business Meeting. This is a meeting that was rescheduled from July 28th, 2026. Let us start with, and for the purposes of an invocation, a moment of silence, please. You know, we had, by my count, six wildfires actually ignite here in the county over the last, really, eight days. And, of course, we're familiar with the Penley Fire, and certainly that did grow to a size before contained, but we did have several others started by lightning strikes that I think, through the diligent work of our local fire districts, as well as our county team, we were able to keep contained. I think we're all familiar, though, that we have other folks in other parts of the country that are not quite as fortunate as we are, and so let's please have a moment of silence, and let's keep those folks in our prayers. All right, let us begin. Let us start, if you will, arise and join me, please, 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. All right, moving to the county attorney for purposes of certification of the agenda. Yes, sir.

Okay, we need to have an approval of meeting minutes from the last commission meeting on June 22nd. Does anybody have any modifications, changes that they'd like to make? Or should we move to approve the minutes? Nothing from the floor, so motion to approve. Jim Morris. Motion to approve. Okay. Second. Very good. All in favor? Aye. Okay. We have a couple referral items today. The first one is this antelope crossing, rezoning, and minor development final plat, which looks like it's dividing up. This is one of Lauren's projects. I think your name was on this one, right? No? Oh. Dividing up 100-acre property into 10 different lots. All the water would be by well water. So did anybody have any comments that they'd like to make? Tricia? My comments are just really for thought for all of us. I don't personally have a problem with subdividing into the two-acre lots. But it made me start thinking about the density of things, projects that are using groundwater. So for example, the Pine Canyon development that was looking at using groundwater I had a real problem with. And the density was such that the amount of groundwater was going to be excessive. In this case, we're talking a …

Welcome to the Douglas County Board of County Commissioners business meeting. It is July 14th, Tuesday. And to begin us off today, let's start with, for the purposes of an invocation, Reverend Darren Kessler. Thank you. Please join me. Father, we thank you that we can come in a public meeting like this and ask for your wisdom. I pray for that wisdom among the commissioners and every public official and people who are going to be presenting and speaking, that we would be united around wanting to do what is good as you've given us those commands to love and to care for one another. And may we do that with wisdom. Thank you that we realize that the public officials serve under your sovereignty. And we pray that they would do so with humility. Thank you that they've asked for this to be prayed over them. And I do so now in your name, Jesus. Amen. Once again, Reverend, thank you very much for your words of wisdom and grace to begin our meeting. If everyone will please stand and join me for 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. All right. Moving to the county attorney for certification of the agenda. Yes, sir. The county attorney's officer reviewed all items on the agenda. You have appr …
