Bayfield County Executive Committee Agenda, July 8, 2021
Item 5: The County Clerk and IT Departments will make budget presentations to the County
Executive Committee.
Item 6: Bayfield Wireless CEO Mike Cariveau will be at the meeting. Bayfield Wireless has an
existing Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Bayfield Fire Hill Tower. Bayfield
Wireless will be asking that we update the existing MOU. I am working with Mike and John
Carlson on some updates and will share those once completed.
Item 7: Bayfield County passed the attached Broadband Forward ordinance in 2018. The
ordinance stipulates a maximum fee of $100 for permits.
Up until now we have had no requests to use this. Recently a broadband provider requested to
use this provision for new broadband tower installs. The normal fee would be in the $600-
$1000 range for a tower. Cell towers are $3000.
Originally, we thought the ordinance was for Right of Way fiber plowing. The ordinance
however is much broader and notes any broadband projects will not pay more than $100 in
fees.
Over the past 7 years over $3.5 million has come to Bayfield County in broadband grants, being
a broadband forward member helps get grants.
We have had some discussion on this and I wanted to share with the committee.
Rob did have some concerns on reduced revenues for Planning and Zoning.
We know broadband is a top priority. Any way to incentivize, encourage investment is what we
want to do.
Please let me know if you need more detail on this topic before the meeting. The ordinance is
in the packet.
Item 8. The Sheriff Committee supported an ordinance amendment that would move
addressing from the Sheriff’s Committee to the Executive Committee. Specifically the Sheriff
Committee considered:
Item 1: It is proposed that the responsibility of addressing be moved from Emergency
Management to Land Records. This change is proposed for practicality and efficiency as Land
Records has primary responsibility over the updates of roadways and address with the County
mapping programs and 911 mapping system. Attached is the proposed ordinance change.
(ordinance attached)
The amendatory ordinance is prompted by a move of 911 addressing from Emergency
Management (Sheriff Committee) to Land Records (Exec Committee).
If approved by Exec this would go to the full board.
We would like to take this opportunity to provide a general overview of the county addressing
system for the Below please find three general topic areas and some bullets.
1. Addressing Basics
a. County assigns addressing based on standardized policy using longitude/latitude.
b. Addresses are standardized to ensure quick response by public safety, etc.
2. Replacement Signs:
a. County role helps ensure consistency, even with replacements.
3. Staffing
a. Current staffing is a part time person, average hours
b. Goal is to have consistency in the position.
Item 9: At the County Board meeting the Board heard a presentation on local real estate
auction houses. Bayfield County sells tax delinquent property annually, the number of parcels
range from 5 – 20. At present Bayfield County uses an online Wisconsin based auction service
called Wisconsin Surplus. (www.wisconsinsurplus.com).
Bayfield County sells on average about 20 items a year on Wisconsin surplus. About 10 pieces
of land and 10 vehicles or other surplus equipment. WIsconsinSurplus meets public auction
requirements for land and vehicles. The site is available to all who register and receive a
bidding number.
Wisconsinsurplus does not charge the seller. The fee for buyers is dependent on cost as shown
below.
We will have a fact sheet on Wisconsin Surplus at the Committee meeting.
WisconsinSurplus.com is a statewide auction house used by many state and local government
departments.
Item 10. At the June Business Park meeting the Committee recommended that a second sign
be added on the corner of State Farm Road and 137. After discussion at several meetings and
review of several options the committee recommended installation of a header with BAYFIELD
COUNTY BUSINESS PARK and 2 feet by 10 feet business name signs planks underneath. The
Business Park will pay for the structure, individual businesses will pay their own panel. Cost is
$3200 for the county infrastructure.
Funding is available. This year additional revenues were received ($29k) for the Xcel lease.
Budget snapshot as of July 1 is below.
Item 11. Bayfield County continues to get inquiries about tower lease purchase options. The
post recent proposal is for all three tower leases for 15 years. The tower leases are shown
here:
SBA: $10,482/yr 3% or CPI Lease expires 11/1/2050
TMO: $25,039/yr 3% annual Lease expires 7/1/2048
VZ: $3,208/mo 0% Lease expires 5/1/2042
The total for all three leases in year 1 is: $74,017 (without adjusting for inflationary increases).
Over 15 years this would total $1.11 million. We received an offer of $650k cash. Here are
some brief pros and cons.
PRO:
• Money today
• Reduce risk if they pull the equipment in the future (agreements renew every 5 years)
• Reduce risk if they threaten to pull antenna or lower lease.
CON:
• County has a solid cash position today.
• Interest rates very low if we were to invest proceeds.
• Nice to have regular revenue flow in the future.
• If lease continues, return is greater by holding onto leases.
Summary:
This is primarily a risk management tool in the event the antenna are removed. These
agreements are ONLY for the existing leases. Where the county owns the tower (Port Wing and
Washburn) we can still place additional antenna on the towers and the revenues come to us.
Item 12: FUND BALANCE: At the last meeting we discussed fund balance assignments. Current
unassigned county balances are approximately 62%. On the attached sheet please find 6
assignment recommendations totaling $6 million. This would put us at the 25% level. Note, an
assignment is NOT budget authority, but a planning effort to ensure we have sufficient funds
for important projects. Here is a summary. Full description is in the packet.
1. $2,500,000 Five-year highway funding plan, $500k per year x 5
2. $1,000,000 Pigeon Lake, County Highway N restoration
3. $750,000 Compensated balances
4. $1,500,000 Roof repairs (Annex/Courthouse)
5. $150,000 Unpaid Taxes
6. $100,000 Grand View Garage Restoration
Item 13: Bayfield County applied for a received $150k in a second round of DOJ Supplemental
Coronavirus funding. We propose using the funds for a Jail Body Scanner, Courtroom door and
courtroom recording upgrade. This budget amendment would be forwarded to the County
Board.
Item 14. ARPA Funding
1. Proposed alarms at the county’s four towers ( Port Wing, Washburn, Maple Hill, Fire
Tower).
Bayfield County currently owns four radio tower sites with towers and equipment at each site.
These sites are in Bayfield, Port Wing, Washburn and Maple Hill. Alarm systems are not
installed at any of the four sites. The alarm systems would provide instant feedback to any
email distribution list as well as Duluth Superior Communications regarding:
• Excessive heat inside the building
• Excessive cold inside the building
• Power failure/site on generator
• Repeater System Failure
• Generator Failure
• Intrusion
This system would provide better monitoring of the county-owned radio infrastructure and
help mitigate potential damages due to the above situations. One of the alarming proposals is
attached in the packet.
Cost projections, $15,000 for hardware, software installation and 2 years support /
maintenance. Maintenance after this would be about $1000 per year.
2. Business Park Sewer: KVTECH is building now at the business park. They estimate a cost
of $15k for their mound system to be installed in the fall. Private business sewer is
allowable expense.
3. NEOGOV Learn module would provide a medium for tracking and providing staff training
remotely. Should have cost this coming week.
4. Board Room Camera: This is for a mounted camera instead of the individual cameras in
the county board room. A single point camera makes it easier for staff and a better
angle for supervisors and residents to view proceedings. $1400
5. Recommend planning / setting aside some funds for legal review and agreement
preparation with third parties to ensure we are following proper procedures. $15k.
6. Human Services has requested a NEW SENIOR MEAL ROUTE STRUCTURE and an AGING
COORDINATOR beginning in 2022 and lasting 4 years through 2026. TOTAL REQUEST:
$475K.
ROUTE RESTRUCTURE ESTIMATES: wage and fringe is a wash, same hours, spread over more
routes. Cost here is one time cost of $115k (3 VANS) for new vehicles/hot boxes.
AGING COORDINATOR WAGES: 2022-2025: $90k average per year.
SUMMARY AND JUSTIFICATION:
Item 15: Reports:
• The Financial Report for end of June is in the packet. We are at the 50% mark as of end
of June. Forestry revenues are strong.
• Treasurer’s Report, balances went up slightly in June, usually bank balances decline in
June.
• Social Media summary for June

brief history of the Brick, which serves Ashland and Bayfield County. They operate 4 food
pantries in the 2 counties. BRICK also provides support for persons needing assistance with
housing/rental financial assistance. ALICE report from 2020 (2018 data) indicates that 12%
of Bayfield County households are below the federal poverty level. 36% of residents are at an
income level that does not cover their basic needs such as food and housing. Requesting
funding to assist with capital improvements as listed in the document provided in the meeting
packet.
Hospitality, Mary Motiff Tourism Director: Motiff reported that Bayfield County had the
second highest tourism revenue in the state in 2020. She provided a list of items that would
assist with ensuring that Tourism continues to be a priority. $27,500 would be needed to fund
the top 5 priorities listed.
IT Infrastructure, Paul Houck: New storage area network (SAN), which stores everything in
the county. Currently has 50 servers on the SAN. Due for replacement at end of 2021. ARA
funds can also fund cyber security improvements.

improvement project. Incentive for businesses that purchase and remodel vacant storefronts.
Support the trail maintenance requests from Tourism and Forestry departments. Bike lane on
Hwy M. Possibly reimburse businesses for PPE supplies.
Revenue Loss Formula Review: Abeles-Allison reviewed a formula received that can be used
to identify funds that can be de-federalized to provide greater latitude in what the funds can
be used for.
Budget Amendment Resolution for ARA funds approved by the County Board on May 25,
2021. Four ARA projects were approved at the previous County Board meeting. This resolution
details the budget amendment related to the four projects totalling approximately $1.241 million,
leaving approximately $200,000 of the first year allocation.
Motion Strand, Fickbohm to recommend the budget amendment resolution to the full county
board for approval. Motion Carried (6-0)
Department 2022 Budget Overview:
Land Records: Galetka reported that Land Sales have been very positive. Thorough title
examinations are being conducted along with surveys. WLIP Grants, about $100,000 per
year, will be reduced due to the revenues received through land sales. PLSS identifies section
corners. There are approximately 5,000 corners in the county. Approximately 40% have been
identified. The department is taking on the rural addressing program from the Emergency
Management office. Potential for a LIDAR flight imagery with 75% state/federal funding.
The LIDAR is important because of the recent major environmental disasters that have
occurred over about 2/3 of the county since the last imagery was obtained.
County Administrator: Clerk, Paige Terry is shared between the County Clerk and County
Administrator offices. Contractual items are primarily for Human Resources software.
Fund Balance Assignments: Abeles-Allison reviewed fund balances. The county currently has
an unassigned balance of about $10 million. County policy is to have approximately 25% of
balances in the unassigned category. Auditors will likely recommend that there is too much
unassigned balance. Abeles-Allison identified a couple of items that could be used to assign
some of the fund balance. Items include: paid leave payout liability, unpaid tax liability and
future roof repairs.
Reports:
EMS Advisory Committee Report: Red Cliff has requested to have a representative on the
committee. Comments were received from Washburn Ambulance and the City of Washburn.
No negative feedback was received.
Sales Tax Report: Sales tax collections have increased each year for the past 3 years.

Re-roofing of the older portions of the Annex building will be the priority.

recognition for the work that MMC has done throughout the pandemic.
Former RR Right of Way: County Quit Claims interest of Railroad grade between Washburn
and Bayfield when requested.
Construction Project updates: Front stairs have been removed and will be reformed in the
next 2 weeks. Sidewalk repairs are also underway. County Highway M will be later in the
summer.
County Mask Policy: Revised policy was distributed today. Effective Monday, June 14,
masks will be optional in the courthouse. Still recommended for unvaccinated persons.
Financial Report, end of May 2021: About $700,000 additional revenue in 2021 vs 2020 due
to forest revenues. Expenditures are at 42% for the year. About $329,000 over the same time
last year. Human Services has reduced revenues and expenses vs this time last year, primarily
due to transfer of ADRC accounting being moved to another county. Highway revenues and
expenditures very similar to 2020.
Treasurer’s Report, end of May 2021: ARA monies have been added to the report. Balances
are healthy. Northern Lights and World Class are current on payments.
The committee did not go into closed session.
Meeting adjourned at 5:53pm.
Respectfully submitted by Kris Kavajecz.

Meeting Called to Order at 4:00pm by Rondeau.
Public Comment: None Received
Motion Pocernich, Strand to approve minutes of the February 11, 2021 Executive
Committee meeting. Motion Carried (6-0).
Emergency Management Report: Victorson reported that she has been spending the last 2
weeks providing orientation to Meagan Quaderer. She read a thank you to the committee
for all of the accomplishments that have occurred during her 33 years of service. The

association was open to the concept. County Board Chairman Pocernich presented
Victorson with a “Key to the County”.
2020 Energy Analysis, Bill Bailey: Bailey reviewed energy utilization in county

has been introduced in 2021.The recidivism rate in 2019 was just over 21%.
2
Department 2022 Budget Review, Multiple Department Review: Abeles-Allison
reported that departments were asked to provide information for the 2022 budget in the
event that revenues fall short.
2021 Contingency Budget Review: Abeles-Allison reviewed an estimate of where the
contingency fund currently is projected. $159,806 was budgeted. $80,000 was originally
anticipated to be used for wage adjustments. Due to staffing changes, it is currently
estimated that will not be needed. Treasurer is estimating that investment returns will be
less than anticipated.
Fairgrounds Electrical Funding Request: Mary Motiff explained that the fairgrounds is
at phase 3 of electrical improvements at the fairgrounds. This was originally planned for
2020, but was postponed due to uncertainty with the budget (COVID). Costs for the
project have increased significantly. Motiff reported that there may be some monies
available through WEDC for county owned fairs for revenue losses due to the COVID
pandemic. If the funding comes through, the funds could be used for the bid overage.
$80,000 was budgeted for the project. The revised bid, with proposed
reductions/adjustments, would be $122,985, leaving a shortage of $48,375.
Motion Pocernich, Dougherty to authorize an amount not to exceed $50,000 from
contingency for the Phase 3 electrical project at the fairgrounds. Motion Carried (6-0)
Business Park Electrical Utility Extension: Rabska reported that KV Tech has broken
ground for their new facility at the business park. There is currently not 3-Phase power
available. BCEDC is currently in discussions about how to make the project a reality. 3-
Phase is available at the corner of the property owned by Mrnak. Several easements will
be necessary to extend that service as well as permitting with the Department of
Transportation. The cost to run the line would be approximately $30 per foot with an
estimated distance of 1200 feet. The county could consider bringing the power to the
edge of the business park and the business would be responsible for bringing the power
from that point to the business.
Courthouse Stair and Sidewalk Project: Bid was received from Nasi Construction for
$35,000 for stair replacement and $19,000 for sidewalk replacements. Request is made for
$26,000 from contingency to complete the projects. Pocernich questioned the need for epoxy
rebar and suggested an alternative to bolting the handrails (set in PVC instead).
Motion Pocernich to transfer up to $26,000 from contingency to be used for the
courthouse steps and sidewalk replacement project and a budget adjustment to move
$20,000 that was budgeted for highway to remove the steps, to a contractual item. The
County Administrator to discuss the epoxy rebar and handrail set with the engineer. Motion
Carried (6-0)

Grant and forward to the full county board for approval. Motion Carried (6-0)
5-Year Capital Planning: Abeles-Allison reported that the American Recovery Act was
approved and signed by the president. Bayfield County is expected to receive several
million dollars. The funds will be received over a 2 year period. Municipalities will also
receive funding. There are no details at this time on what the funds can be used for. This
topic is brought up as a consideration for future budget planning. Silbert suggested
improvements for the Nursing Home including wireless services, a phone system
upgrade, and lift for residents.
Budget Survey Discussion: Draft budget survey was reviewed with the committee.
Suggestion was made to include a general topic for other items of budget importance and
also to include a question on how citizens would like to prioritize use of the anticipated
COVID funding.

parcels that were donated to the county.

Conclusions:
Home Delivered Meal Routes
1.) The pandemic has increased the need for Home Delivered Meals (HDM).
2.) While the pandemic has accelerated the need to make changes, restructuring routes was already being
considered due to: current volume; projected increases in services due to the aging populations in Bayfield
3.) Wage and Fringe costs will not be significantly different by implementing the initial restructure of the HDM
4.) However, route duration and structure are dependent on the individuals who request home delivered meals.
The routes change intermittently, sometimes frequently, due to the addition and deletion of stops.
5.) The biggest need for ARPA funds for Home Delivered Meals is for start up costs.
6.) The proposal requests ARPA funds be committed and include a vehicle and equipment for the Cable route.
The Cable route is currently run by the volunteers of the Cable Lions Club. This is a precarious arrangement due
7.) Total Request of ARPA funds for vehicles and equipment $115,000.
Aging Services Coordinator
1.) This position is needed due to the increase in services to the elderlys due to the pandemic.
2.) Although the need for the position was accelerated by the pandemic, an increase in staff who coordinate
aging services has been included in the Department's strategic plan for a number of years.
3.) ARPA funds are available, if committed, until December 31, 2025.
4.) ARPA funds would allow for staff to be hired and in place on January 1, 2022 and would fund the position
5.) The position would then need to be sustained through county levy.
6.) The total request for ARPA funds for the position $360,000.
Summary:
1.) ARPA funds would allow improvements and expansions to services to the elderly.
2.) It would also allow a number of years for Bayfield County to gear up financially to continue to provide
3.) The total request for ARPA funds for DHS projects is $475,000.

Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1383(c)) or section 1452 of the Safe Drinking
Water Act (42 U.S.C. 300j-12); or, 144 (2) Broadband. Broadband infrastructure that is designed
to provide service to unserved or underserved households and businesses and that is designed
to, upon completion….
RATIONALE: Project will provide fiber to the home service to over 500 underserved
households in Bayfield County. Project will meet minimum speed requirements.
3. Health staffing and testing equipment
The Interim Final Rule identifies a non-exclusive list of uses that address the effects of the COVID-
19 public health emergency, including: • COVID-19 Mitigation and Prevention. A broad range of
services and programming are needed to contain COVID-19. Mitigation and prevention efforts
for COVID-19 include vaccination programs; medical care; testing; contact tracing; support for
isolation or quarantine; supports for vulnerable populations to access medical or public health
services; public health surveillance (e.g., monitoring case trends, genomic sequencing for
variants); enforcement of public health orders; public communication efforts; enhancement to
health care capacity, including through alternative care facilities; purchases of personal
protective equipment; support for prevention, mitigation, or other services in congregate living
facilities (e.g., nursing homes, incarceration settings, homeless shelters, group living facilities)
and other key settings like schools;40 ventilation improvements in congregate settings, health
care settings, or other key locations; enhancement of public health data systems; and other
public health responses.41 T
Public Health and Safety Staff. Treasury recognizes that responding to the public health and
negative economic impacts of the pandemic, including administering the services described
above, requires a substantial commitment of State, local, and Tribal government human
resources. As a result, the Fiscal Recovery Funds may be used for payroll and covered benefits
expenses for public safety, public health, health care, human services, and similar employees, to
the extent that their services are devoted to mitigating or responding to the COVID–19 public
health emergency.46 Accordingly, the Fiscal Recovery Funds may be used to support the payroll
and covered benefits for the portion of the employee’s time that is dedicated to responding to
the COVID-19 public health emergency. For administrative convenience, the recipient may
consider public health and safety employees to be entirely devoted to mitigating or responding
to the COVID-19 public health emergency, and therefore fully covered, if the employee, or his or
her operating unit or division, is primarily dedicated to responding to the COVID-19 public
health emergency.
Rationale: Additional staffing assistance is needed to address COVID 19 activities of the County
Health Department.
4. Nursing Home:
COVID-19 public health emergency, including: • COVID-19 Mitigation and Prevention. A broad
range of services and programming are needed to contain COVID-19. Mitigation and prevention
efforts for COVID-19 include vaccination programs; medical care; testing; contact tracing;
support for isolation or quarantine; supports for vulnerable populations to access medical or
public health services; public health surveillance (e.g., monitoring case trends, genomic
sequencing for variants); enforcement of public health orders; public communication efforts;
enhancement to health care capacity, including through alternative care facilities; purchases of
personal protective equipment; support for prevention, mitigation, or other services in
congregate living facilities (e.g., nursing homes, incarceration settings, homeless shelters, group
living facilities) and other key settings like schools;40 ventilation improvements in congregate
settings, health care settings, or other key locations; enhancement of public health data systems;
and other public health responses.
§ 35.6 Eligible uses. (a) In General. Subject to §§ 35.7 and 35.8 of this subpart, a recipient may
use funds for one or more of the purposes described in paragraphs (b)-(e) of this section (b)
Responding to the public health emergency or its negative economic impacts. A recipient may
use funds to respond to the public health emergency or its negative economic impacts, including
for one or more of the following purposes: (1) COVID-19 response and prevention. Expenditures
for the mitigation and prevention of COVID-19, including: (i) Expenses related to COVID-19
vaccination programs and sites, including staffing, acquisition of equipment or supplies, facilities
costs, and information technology or other administrative expenses; (ii) COVID–19-related
expenses of public hospitals, clinics, and similar facilities; (iii) COVID-19 related expenses in
congregate living facilities, including skilled nursing facilities, long-term care facilities,
incarceration settings, homeless shelters, residential foster care facilities, residential behavioral
health treatment, and other group living facilities;
RATIONALE: Services in the nursing home must continue 24 x 7, adequate backup power is
critical. Funds will be used to replace the nursing home generator. Existing sewer lines are
fracturing and breaking creating unsanitary environments. Replacement will improve overall
facility sanitation.
5. ASSISTANCE TO HOUSEHOLDS: The BRICK
As discussed, the pandemic and the necessary actions taken to control the spread had a severe
impact on households and small businesses, including in particular low-income workers and
communities and people of color. While eligible uses under sections 602(c)(1)(A) and
603(c)(1)(A)provide flexibility to recipients to identify the most pressing local needs, Treasury
encourages recipients to provide assistance to those households, businesses, and non-profits in
communities most disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.
Rationale: The BRICK food shelf provides basic services to local residents with pressing needs.
Infrastructure upgrades will allow for safe operations, the opportunity for social distancing and
proper hygiene in restrooms.
6. Hospitality: Bayfield County Tourism
Aid to Impacted Industries. Sections 602(c)(1)(A) and 603(c)(1)(A) recognize that certain
industries, such as tourism, travel, and hospitality, were disproportionately and negatively
impacted by the COVID-19 public health emergency. Aid provided to tourism, travel, and
hospitality industries should respond to the negative economic impacts of the pandemic on those
and similarly impacted industries. F
Rationale: support the hospitality sector by improving marketing with up to date brochures and
imagery.
7. Hospitality/Privy, Bayfield County Forestry
Aid to Impacted Industries. Sections 602(c)(1)(A) and 603(c)(1)(A) recognize that certain
industries, such as tourism, travel, and hospitality, were disproportionately and negatively
impacted by the COVID-19 public health emergency. Aid provided to tourism, travel, and
hospitality industries should respond to the negative economic impacts of the pandemic on those
and similarly impacted industries. F
NOTE FROM AUDITOR:
Rationale: outdoor recreation was a safe venue for area residents and visitors. Traffic at many
county trail sites doubled, raising the importance of adequate sewer facilities at these sites.
8. Sewer/City of Washburn:
. Water and Sewer Infrastructure The ARPA provides funds to State, local, and Tribal governments to
make necessary investments in water and sewer infrastructure.125 By permitting funds to be used for
water and sewer infrastructure needs, Congress recognized the critical role that clean drinking water
and services for the collection and treatment of wastewater and stormwater play in protecting public
health. Understanding that State, local, and Tribal governments have a broad range of water and sewer
infrastructure needs, the Interim Final Rule provides these governments with wide latitude to identify
investments in water and sewer infrastructure that are of the highest priority for their own
communities, which may include projects on privately-owned infrastructure.
RATIONALE: Funds will be used for a City Sewer Project for the Washburn Ironworks. Funding will allow
the business to grow, they propose a $1 million business expansion.
9. IT Infrastructure
§ 35.6 Eligible uses. (a) In General. Subject to §§ 35.7 and 35.8 of this subpart, a recipient may
use funds for one or more of the purposes described in paragraphs (b)-(e) of this section (b)
Responding to the public health emergency or its negative economic impacts. A recipient may
use funds to respond to the public health emergency or its negative economic impacts, including
for one or more of the following purposes: (1) COVID-19 response and prevention. Expenditures
for the mitigation and prevention of COVID-19, including: (i) Expenses related to COVID-19
vaccination programs and sites, including staffing, acquisition of equipment or supplies, facilities
costs, and information technology or other administrative expenses;
sections 602(c)(1)(C) and 603(c)(1)(C) of the Act provide recipients with broad latitude to use the
Fiscal Recovery Funds for the provision of government services. Government services can include,
but are not limited to, maintenance or pay-go funded building123 of infrastructure, including
roads; modernization of cybersecurity, including hardware, software, and protection of critical
infrastructure; health services; environmental remediation; school or educational services; and
the provision of police, fire, and other public safety services. H
Rationale: Funds will be used to update the network storage device (SAN) for county
departments including Public Safety, Health and Emergency Management. The advanced
storage network will provide improved cyber security and improved remote access.
ADDITIONAL JUSTIFICATION:
• All VPN software\servers run on the SAN.
• All county servers reside on the SAN.
• The majority of data used by employees while working from home is also on the SAN.
• The public can gain access to the SAN by accessing the mapping site, zoning application,
published Laserfiche documents, tax information etc.
• Municipal Treasurers access the tax database via the VPN .
10. TOWER ALARMS: 4 Towers, $15k
Sections 602(c)(1)(C) and 603(c)(1)(C) of the Act provide recipients with broad latitude to use the Fiscal
Recovery Funds for the provision of government services. Government services can include, but are not
limited to, maintenance or pay-go funded building123 of infrastructure, including roads; modernization
of cybersecurity, including hardware, software, and protection of critical infrastructure; health services;
environmental remediation; school or educational services; and the provision of police, fire, and other
public safety services. H
11. Business Park Sewer: .
Water and Sewer Infrastructure The ARPA provides funds to State, local, and Tribal governments to
make necessary investments in water and sewer infrastructure.125 By permitting funds to be used
for water and sewer infrastructure needs, Congress recognized the critical role that clean drinking
water and services for the collection and treatment of wastewater and stormwater play in
protecting public health. Understanding that State, local, and Tribal governments have a broad
range of water and sewer infrastructure needs, the Interim Final Rule provides these governments
with wide latitude to identify investments in water and sewer infrastructure that are of the highest
priority for their own communities, which may include projects on privately-owned infrastructure.
The Interim Final Rule does this by aligning eligible uses of the Fiscal Recovery Funds with the wide
range of types or categories of projects that would be eligible to receive financial assistance through
the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) or Drinking
Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF)
12. Job Training: LEARN
• Assistance to Households. Assistance to households or populations facing negative economic impacts
due to COVID-19 is also an eligible use. This includes: food assistance; rent, mortgage, or utility
assistance; counseling and legal aid to prevent eviction or homelessness; cash assistance (discussed
below); emergency assistance for burials, home repairs, weatherization, or other needs; internet access
or digital literacy assistance; or job training to address negative economic or public health impacts
experienced due to a worker’s occupation or level of training. A
13. BOARD ROOM CAMERA:
a. Facilitate remote attendance
14. LEGAL EXPENSES: REVIEW AND AGREEMENT PREPARATIONS
15. HUMAN SERVICES
Finally, the Interim Final Rule aims to promote and streamline the provision of assistance to
individuals and communities in greatest need, particularly communities that have been
historically disadvantaged and have experienced disproportionate impacts of the COVID-19 120
crisis. Targeting relief is in line with Executive Order 13985 On Advancing Racial Equity and
Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government, which laid out an
Administration-wide priority to support “equity for all, including people of color and others who
have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by persistent poverty
and inequality.”185
D. Investments in Infrastructure To assist in meeting the critical need for investments and
improvements to existing infrastructure in water, sewer, and broadband, the Fiscal Recovery
Funds provide funds to State, local, and Tribal governments to make necessary investments in
these sectors. The Interim Final Rule outlines eligible uses within each category, allowing for a
broad range of necessary investments in projects that improve access to clean drinking water,
improve wastewater and stormwater infrastructure systems, and provide access to high-quality
broadband service. Necessary investments are designed to provide an adequate minimum level
of service and are unlikely to be made using private sources of funds. Necessary investments
include projects that are required to maintain a level of service that, at least, meets applicable
health-based standards, taking into account resilience to climate change, or establishes or
improves broadband service to unserved or underserved populations to reach an adequate level
to permit a household to work or attend school, and that are unlikely to be met with private
sources of funds. P 62
• Assistance to Households. Assistance to households or populations facing negative economic
impacts due to COVID-19 is also an eligible use. This includes: food assistance; rent, mortgage,
or utility assistance; counseling and legal aid to prevent eviction or homelessness; cash
assistance (discussed below); emergency assistance for burials, home repairs, weatherization, or
other needs; internet access or digital literacy assistance; or job training to address negative
economic or public health impacts experienced due to a worker’s occupation or level of training.
