You nearly The End The End The End Thank you. Thank you. The End The End Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Okay, it's time to call the meeting to order. It's 3-0-1. For anyone who's here as a guest, there is an attendance sheet in the back of the room. You can sign that for me. I'd appreciate it. Next item on the agenda is approval of the minutes from the last meeting on December 5th. Entertain a motion on that or questions. Second. Okay, Heathen made a motion to approve. Debbie made a motion to second on the minutes. All in favor say aye. Aye. Opposed? Debbie. I don't think you call that up for the minutes, do you? Up there. That we just do that by voice. Okay. We got that. Okay. First item on the agenda is the Ordinance Review Committee report. It's Nathan. Our committee met three times in, twice in November, once in December. A draft of those final recommendations are there from our meeting in December. What we did is first identified issues that we had sort of, I guess, bullet pointed from probably a year, year and a half of meetings. Second is we talked about just the strategy of identifying things towards the goals of transparency, recruitment, and then enforcement preservation, and then discussed whether they would be an issue or review of, revise of the ordinance of the bylaws or a current existing policy or a new policy, and then there was sort of another category. The format that we provide them to you are recommendations first, and then sort of an issue recommendation chart that we went through. The full committee has not sort of finally stamped that, so I don't know if you call it in draft form. I think it's substantially the same as the last comments from our meeting. Overall, you'll see that there is no recommended changes to the ordinance, but there are what I would say at a high level several things. The first one is that we need to consider a long-term business plan or strategic plan that has a number of sort of bullet points inside of it. Second is because of the essentially 20 years of the program, and we're basically operating under an ordinance with a couple of policies that are here or there that we formalize all of our policies into a formalized policy manual, and we enhance that with additional policies that are discussed in there. And then I think that there are a couple of placeholders that there was not consensus on and that we referred to full commission discussion, which included historic structures and use policy and the issue of federal matching funds. That's just a very sort of high-level overview. There's also a couple of nits to the bylaws that Didi's made some and I've made some, and those will come back probably in maybe March. Other than that, I don't know if there's any action that needs to be taken on, but I think it's a pretty comprehensive look at what we did. Are you meeting again? No. You're done? Yep. We were done on December 12th. My suggestion would be that the whole commission take it, since we're missing four or five members today, May the whole commission take it and that we place a discussion item on our March agenda to give everybody a month to review it and started dealing with the strategic planning issue, which is probably the top priority, and then how are we going to address policy issues or policies and issues of policies at the March meeting. That's the report, Mr. Chair. Do you want a motion? I don't think it requires a motion. Do you all have any questions on this? I know you just got it recently. I think Nathan's comment about the strategic thing is probably the main thing we talked about doing was having someone facilitate and do some thinking about where we're heading. So that's probably the main piece of this. We'll continue to talk about it in the future, obviously, moving forward. Yeah, and I forget sometimes on the emails, but Beth has contacted the Kentucky Nonprofit Network. Is that the right name? I think so. About potential facilitators for that that in March she'll be able to present to us so that that issue would be timely to address the March meeting too. So are you talking about a partnership with other nonprofits? No, I think that the goal would be to have the Rural Land Management Board engage in a business-slash-long-term strategy planning session, that we would come out of there with specific goals and actionable tactics and mechanisms towards our goal of achieving 50,000 acres inside of the program and how we're going to achieve that through various mechanisms. And that from a, not a policy like a use policy, but from a political, a public policy standpoint, how we need to achieve and where we need to go to achieve the PDR goals. That was a really quick summary of a much longer discussion, so I probably didn't do it justice, but is that fair for people who are on the committee? so we just realized Chair, if I may, I need to remind everybody to please use their microphones because everybody at home can't hear you So we've since 1998 been an entity and such and we just feel like it's a good time to take a pause and to review our goals and objectives and that's really it to take, to have maybe a half a day kind of a thing or whatever it takes for all of us to get together and review really just that, our goals and objectives. This is what Nathan's provided today is just some bullet points on different things to ponder between now and March, I think, a bit. But then we can all get together and do some sharing. I think to answer your question, is it a partnership? I mean, there could be partnerships that come out of that with other people, but it is not a suggested partnership per se. I was going to read just a note from our, this is for our notes from the November 28th meeting. And this is, again, just a summary of a much broader discussion. But basically, we determined that we're at a crossroads in the program being 20 years old. and that some of the issues we've seen arise at least in the last year, year and a half, maybe two years in our meetings, we've realized we need to address at a 50,000-foot level instead of on a case-by-case basis because there's some consistencies. And so, like, one of them is about recruitment. How do we get to 50,000 acres? Is it the same model we've been doing, which is we ask council for a million dollars or $2 million or a million five or whatever that is every year? Do we continue to seek federal match or not? Do we partner with other entities or agencies like Bluegrass Conservancy? Do we look at going to horse farms and getting donated easements? I mean, there's different. That's not to say yes or no to any of those. It's just to give an idea of anecdotes of the discussion. How do we enforce and preserve the farms going forward? That's sort of a, you see on the summary, there's sort of those bullet points in there. And one of the meetings, he did a really good job of sort of laying out what he thinks the crossroads is and how we're going to get there. And we envision starting that strategic planning session with the facilitator at that point with sort of a summary of what the crossroads is, where we're at, I guess where we're going to go and how we're going to get there. But that's also not just something we just come in on a Monday and figure that out. It's a much bigger question. All right. Okay. Everybody okay with that? All right. That's pretty much all we have for our regular open session. We do have our next meeting on March the 27th at 3 p.m., and we do have time for any public comment if anyone has a comment. I have a question about old business. Okay, Nathan has a question about old business. In the minutes of the last meeting, and I've asked this consistently for, I think, a year and a half, I think, Debbie, you referenced that you had talked to, yes, about the donation and just wondered if we had any more feedback on that. Okay. Can we just put that as another business item for the next meeting then and have somebody follow up with them? Because I know that was discussed, I think, this summer will be two years ago. Is that right? Is that right, two years? Probably not. Okay. Okay, any other things for open session? All right, we're going to go into closed session now. I'm sorry, I need a motion. Sorry about that. I've got to read it. Wait a minute. Pursuant to KRS 61810 to discuss the potential acquisition of real property interest, the public discussion which may likely affect the value. I need a motion for that. So moved. Second. Motion and a second. The motion was Nathan. Second was Debbie. Mary, Mary, Mary. Okay. Did you get the motion and second? All in favor? Aye. Opposed? All right. Thank you. I'm out. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm sorry. Thank you. Outro Music Transcription by CastingWords Thank you. Thank you. The End The End ORCHESTRA PLAYS Thank you.

Because she's got to take notes on all this. I'm talking about who motions in seconds. Okay. No. So I'm going to read the motions.

Motion carries. All right. That's it for the motions for the day. Anything else for today? Yes, ma'am. Punch your phone there. For the record, I would like to ask where the survey is for the zip line property, whether it is on PDR easement property or not. I understand that that survey was supposed to have happened in December, and here it is, February. What's our update on that? We have heard from the property owner who's supposed to be doing the survey, and they are not complete. They were not going to be able to finish the survey in time for this meeting. So they are going to come with the survey in March. Thank you. Any other questions or business with this committee today? Entertain a motion to adjourn. Marianne and Debbie, motion second. All in favor, hit the door. Bye.
