On Wednesday morning a truck made an oversized delivery to Brookside Park. It was the building for the Jeff Goad HYPER (Healthy Youth Parks Education Recreation) Center. I was curious as to how the building would be moved from the truck to its foundation. I did not have to wait long to find out.
He then used this tiny machine to drag the building to the pad.
Then he took the machine to the other end and positioned it on the pad. He did some fine tuning to get it exactly where the Park people wanted it, and he was done.
Here is the building on its pad.
On Tuesday evening the Jasper County Council met to begin their budget hearings. Before they got to the 2022 budget, they had a series of additional allocations that were confusing and took about 45 minutes. They were related to Covid funding. The State got overwhelmed in processing claims so they changed the way they had counties account for the expenditures. These additional appropriations were mostly putting money back in the accounts were it belonged.
The budget hearings, which will continue through most of Wednesday, are almost impossible to follow if one does not have the thick budget books that the Council members have. One thing that did come out is that commissioners are unhappy with the present state of EMS services in the County and would like for the whole County to use township EMS services. We will see how that plays out in the next few months.
On Tuesday forms for new footers were being installed at McDonalds.
