Last day for discounts 09/08/2020 Louis Amestoy [email protected] It took all of 15 minutes for the Kerrville Economic Improvement Corp. to unanimously approve an agreement to purchase land and a building to house the Killdeer Mountain Manufacturing project near the Kerrville-Kerr County Airport on Thursday night. No one from the public spoke at the meeting, but the EIC board did hear from Kildeer Mountain Manufacturing Vice President Kristin Hedger. “We look forward to being in this community,” Hedger said via a Zoom conference call. The approval clears the way for the city of Kerrville to loan $1 million to the EIC to purchase more than 5 acres of property in the Kerrville Airport Commerce Park. The actual origination of the loan comes from the Kerrville Public Utility Board, which approved the agreement at one of its board meet- ings last month. In turn, the EIC will pay back the loan with a 2% interest rate. That is expected to be completed by 2024. The Kerrville City Council is expected to review and approve the deal during its meeting on Tuesday night. The North Dakota-based Kildeer Mountain Manufacturing manufac- tures and sells various products includ- ing circuit boards and fiber optics for use in the aerospace industry. As part of the agreement, the company has agreed to attempt to employ about 60% of its workforce from Kerr County. Kildeer Mountain Manufacturing will start hiring in 2021 and is expected to hire about 400 peo- ple by 2040. Staff report [email protected] Kerr County residents are being encouraged to prepare for the upcoming flu season by get- ting immunized in a drive-through flu shot clinic Wednesday, Sept. 9, at the Hill Country Youth Event Center, 3785 Texas 27 in Kerrville. The event will be a drive-through only event from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. that day, said William B. “Dub” Thomas, the county’s emergency man- agement coordinator. “Insurance and Medicare will be accepted, or the immunization may be purchased for $24.99,” he said. “Anyone wishing to be immunized should enter through the second (east) entrance on Texas 27 to the Hill Country Youth Event Center. The west entrance will be closed.” The Kerr County Flu Clinic is sponsored by Kerr County, the city of Kerrville, Peterson Regional Medical Center and H-E-B. County offices closed Monday Staff report [email protected] Kerr County offices, including those located in the courthouse at 700 Main St. in Kerrville and at the West Kerr Annex at 3350 Junction Highway in Ingram, will be closed for business on Monday, Sept. 7, in obser- vance of Labor Day. The Kerr County Commissioners Court session that would normally take place on Monday morning in a first-floor courtroom at the courthouse has been rescheduled. The commissioners will meet at 9 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 8. “County elected officials would like to remind resi- dents to be safe and responsible in their celebrations over the holiday weekend, particularly in regard to upholding precautions of social distancing and face coverings,” a county spokeswoman said in an email. “Additionally, officials remind citizens that there remains a ban on open-flamed, outdoor burning — including campfires — in two of Kerr County’s four precincts. (There is not a current burn ban in place for Precinct 1 and 3.)” County offices will resume their regular business hours on Tuesday. There will be no interruption of service in law enforcement or emergency services. The next county holiday after Labor Day will be Columbus Day, which will be observed with the clos- ing of county offices on Monday, Oct. 12. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Labor Day is observed on the first Monday in September and was a creation of the labor movement. It is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity and well-being of our country. Sheriff’s office hazard pay again on agenda at commissioners court Sean Batura [email protected] For the third meeting in a row, the Kerr County Commissioners Court will discuss the issue of hazard pay for employees of the sheriff’s office — and for county staff in general. The matter generated heated debate at the court’s last two meetings, with the county judge and some commissioners reluctant to move forward with autho- rizing hazard pay unless they’re sure the cost — $475,940 for the sheriff’s office, according to County Judge Rob Kelly — will be reimbursed by a federal grant. Sheriff W.R. “Rusty” Hierholzer has expressed confidence that hazard pay will be reimbursable and argues his employees at the jail are exposed to the risk of coronavirus infection on a daily basis, as even the clerks have to take the tem- peratures of all visitors to the facility. The following two items are slated on the court’s agenda for Sept. 8: Consider, discuss and take appropriate action for the hazard pay policy for Kerr County. Consider, discuss and take appropriate action to clarify Court Order No. 38277 — “Order to Designate Hazard Pay for Sheriff’s Office and County Jail during Disaster Declaration.” Also on the agenda is the formal acceptance of a state grant to fund the cre- ation of a public defender’s office downtown to replace the current practice of appointed local criminal defense attorneys to repre- sent indigent defendants in misdemeanor and felony court. The county was already awarded the funds; this item is a formality. The meeting will start at 9 a.m. Tuesday in the first- floor commissioners court- room, 700 Main St. MEETING AGENDA An agenda for Tuesday’s meeting is posted at www. co.kerr.tx.us/commcrt/ agenda/2020.

EIC approves deal to purchase land for manufacturer Drive-through flu-shot clinic set for Wednesday Staff report [email protected] After years of court hear- ings, psychological exami- nations and time in jail and state hospitals, murder defendant Ervin Dean Lucky has again been ruled incom- petent to stand trial. Lucky, who turned 74 on Sept. 4, is accused of stran- gling his 75-year-old wife, Vivian Irene Niemeyer, to death at their Sleepy Hollow Circle home on Dec. 24, 2013. Prior to his arrest that year, Lucky was accused of hitting Niemeyer with a spatula on March 3, 2013, and she filed a protec- tive order against him the next day. The order, which prohibited him from being within 200 yards of her, expired 31 days later. On June 19, San Antonio State Hospital, where Lucky resides, notified the 216th District Court that he remained incompetent to stand trial “and it is highly unlikely that he will achieve competency in the foresee- able future,” according to an agreed order filed Aug. 27. The order states that the court reviewed reports by state hospital staff, includ- ing a psychiatrist and a staff psychologist. Based on the input from the hospital, and after prosecutors and Lucky’s defense attorney declined to request a jury trial on his competency, Judge Steven B. Ables signed an order of incompetency on Aug. 25. Lucky was deemed indi- gent and claimed in court records that he’s lived off of Social Security disability payments since July 2002. If convicted of the first- degree murder charge, Lucky faces a sentence of five to 99 years or life in prison and a $10,000 fine. Lucky also is charged with tampering with a govern- ment record with the intent to defraud for reportedly falsifying financial informa- tion on his application for a court-appointed attorney; this charge is punishable by up to two years in state jail and a $10,000 fine.
