asking a Fiscal Court um the first and I think one of the most important things is to engage in an open dialogue about the needs of the community and working together to address these concerns um there's there's just a lot going on in our community there's a lot of great things and I certainly want to acknowledge some of the awesome things that are going in our community I can't even express how much uh the the mental health court I mean that is just that's groundbreaking and I think it's awesome um but our vision for this community has always been the idea that we could we could be honestly um a example to rural communities throughout the country if we do this the right way okay the second was this is what we asked and we asked the cities and the Fiscal Court the same thing so this packet went to all the city councils as well well not all what I call the big three Hillview Shepherdsville and El or uh Hillview Shepherdsville and um Mount Washington those are the the big three in the county obviously as they go the county goes

um and so we presented that same proposal to Lisa's a building temporarily until we find a permanent location I don't know what everybody's real estate looks like I do know what I've heard that the cities and the counties have empty buildings and so we're just asking not even for a special rate we're just asking for a building to lease um and then lastly what we asked and this is what's I think more importantly and this is what I asked verbally but this time I have put it in black and white so that no one can be confused about what it is that I'm asking is to to provide a clear Direction on the process to request resources from the cities in the county okay so and I've put some examples there are organizations like heart of my city Bullitt County Housing first turnaround Center that get funding from the county um since uh 2020 we have asked what is that process um in the 27 years I was in the Army I got to spend a year on active duty and doing purchasing and and all that stuff so I understand that all the government laws
