No problem. — Members of fiscal court, Judge Summers, my name is Casey Clark and I currently serve as the chairman of the Mount Washington Fire District Board. I'm here this morning regarding the appointment for the next fiscal court appointed trustee to our fire board, Mr. Mike Christ. Our board recommended my Christ for this appointment after discussion and consideration. That recommendation was not made lightly. The fire board understands the importance of these appointments and the responsibility that comes with serving the res the residents of our district. We recommended Mr. Rice because he's been continuously involved in our community. He has shown willingness to

serve. He owns and operates a successful business with a substantial budget. Uh he knows how to balance said budget, which to me is one of the most important things when it comes to um being appointed to our fire protection district board. Um he owns this business within the boundaries of the Mount Washington Fire Protection District as well as lives within the boundaries of the district as well. We believe those qualities will make him a strong asset to our board and to the taxpayers and residents we serve. I also want to make it clear that the board stands behind our recommendation uh for Mr. Rice. Uh we believe he's a great fit for this position. I'd also like to mention that I've reached out by email regarding this matter more than once. I did receive response from Mr. Bleman uh and I appreciate him taking the time to respond. I've not heard back from any of the other members, so I felt it was important to be here today in person to answer any questions that uh you guys have for me or the board. If there are any questions or concerns about Mr. Wright, our recommendation or the operations of Mount Washington Fire Protection District, I'll be more than happy to answer them now or via email, however you want to reach out, phone.

Um, our board wants to have a good working relationship with fiscal court and we want to make sure the district continues moving in the right direction and I appreciate your time this morning. That's all I have right now. Does anybody have any questions for me? — I'd just like to add to that. Uh, Mr. Clark, first of all, I appreciate you sending the email and I do apologize for not responding back. The email did clarify a lot of things for me and so I'm ready to go forward. whatever is important that's — thanks for coming today and you know and obviously making it known that you all you know that's a recommendation of — you don't take that lightly as well — absolutely and if there's anything you know if you have any questions about not necessarily this issue but anything just feel free to reach out if it has anything to do with the fire department I'm always available so Casey, speaking on on behalf of the judge's office and and the court, we've always had a good working relationship. Great. What I'm going to say first responders, especially through the MA and what uh

Mount Washington Fire District brings to the table. Uh so I'm going to skip a couple of things on the agenda and I'm going to put forth the recommendation to approve Mr. Rice to be for the I I know Chief Doul is just dying to get into his oxygen suit here today because it's good and warm, but uh I'm going to skip a few things on the agenda and bounce down in here and make the recommendation to uh approve Mr. Rice to serve on Mount Washington Fire District Board. — I'll second that. — And I have a second by second district magistrate Logson.
