[4:53] yeah yeah so this year we have no uh
[4:57] still we have no fing attack when sec
[5:00] ATT that is very good thing so we have
[5:02] to be proud about that we're educating
[5:05] the employees you know twice a year try
[5:08] to do it by by early you know so we do
[5:11] spring one in fall and by doing that we
[5:15] had doing for like 2 years now we can
[5:17] see some you know uh change in there we
[5:21] can be good so security awareness
[5:23] proficiency assessment if you see this
[5:25] score compared to the industry Benchmark
[5:28] they are at 6 4% here at 67% so at least
[5:32] that's better and uh before I was
[5:35] checking those fishing thing and the our
[5:38] score account average f porn was like 4%
[5:42] around now it is 2.7% so that
[5:46] is we want to be zero but at least you
[5:49] know this big change I see in there and
[5:53] uh I really want to thank you guys for
[5:56] providing me the capital funding last
[5:58] year for the sery on this stories we
[6:00] were able to complete that um by may I
[6:03] guess yes so that we did on time so
[6:07] because our server were going end up
[6:09] life cies were get going end up life so
[6:12] that that we
[6:13] accomplished uh employee wise I have one
[6:16] new employee we hired couple months back
[6:20] and I'm trying to fill one more position
[6:23] so like we have a lot in our plate to do
[6:27] things around and uh from the Smart City side we have
[6:32] 360 access points around the city and uh
[6:36] many cameras and in expansion John is
[6:40] playing still playing very good role in
[6:42] there so he's helping us even become
[6:46] after through it but that's a big
[6:56] help I'm going to try to be proactive so
[6:59] you have to like always be you know
[7:03] alert on what is going on
[7:08] network in terms of software and
[7:11] Hardware how are you with that
[7:13] especially Hardware replacing all the
[7:15] old equipments yeah so uh this Windows
[7:19] uh U Windows 11 what happens is that
[7:22] have the GPM is called in the bias and
[7:25] old machine does not accept Windows 11
[7:28] because of that so there is you know I
[7:31] found some work around you can still do
[7:34] that but if Microsoft you know knows one
[7:37] day and then send up dates then then we
[7:39] all G so we don't know in that situation
[7:43] so uh I give list to D back how many
[7:47] machines we have so we have still until
[7:50] October 2025 to upgrade those machines
[7:52] to 2011 so we're going phase wise I
[7:56] think right byy couple this year if you
[7:58] have Bud then in
[8:00] 2025 but even if you let's say if you
[8:03] are not
[8:04] 100% then in 2026 early 2026 we can do
[8:09] pretty much all so all machine will be
[8:11] up
[8:13] toate and Hardware are pretty pretty
[8:16] good we're keeping like not the Legacy
[8:18] software there's not much you know maybe
[8:21] one or two in clerk Department which is
[8:23] still um you know
[8:26] not and flex you s I'm not sure who
[8:31] support that like that we that's all the
[8:36] old you have a cost did you do a cost
[8:39] analysis on all the equipment to replace
[8:42] uh yes I think I get the
[8:54] numbers yeah the numbers I think it was
[8:57] like 60 computers we had to replace
[8:59] desktops and the cost is like pretty
[9:02] much like 7800
[9:05] each
[9:06] but yeah but depending on you know like
[9:09] you don't have to do all at a time you
[9:11] know like the machine is still good you
[9:13] can next year you can f out those
[9:16] machines but for security reason would
[9:18] you recommend us doing it yeah SEC we do
[9:21] it until 2025 October so we have here
[9:27] it's $60,000
[9:30] to put us out of
[9:34] risk yeah that's why I'm trying to get
[9:37] you don't want to put yourself out at
[9:39] risk because something coming out there
[9:42] and one or two equipment they can buy
[9:45] pass it into into your ccle yeah yeah
[9:48] definitely thank you so that's something
[9:50] we might want to consider when we start
[9:54] our you John you're were saying that the
[9:56] difference is somewhere around $60,000
[9:58] and you're saying that this yeah High
[10:00] number there about 6,000 can be less
[10:02] you're saying this is like this a
[10:04] priority yeah you should consider that
[10:07] we restarting the process the process is
[10:09] already in the works
[10:10] right but we should fund whatever
[10:13] remaining and just complet it and that
[10:15] wasn't part of last
[10:17] year's no I don't think so some some of yes some well I'm saying we've
[10:23] been kind of chipping away at it and uh
[10:27] and and also too you got to remember the
[10:28] capacity these guys have to so even you
[10:31] buy all tomorrow we can't put in the
[10:35] next
[10:36] day it will take a couple months to get
[10:39] you know get out L more running so
[10:41] that's something we should have the come
[10:42] to I mean I wonder though are some of
[10:44] the computers out of the um 60 um are
[10:49] some of the computers that not needing
[10:51] to be replaced I mean so this 60
[10:54] computer needs to be reped oh okay 60 is
[10:57] the number okay okay thank you they're
[10:59] not
[11:02] compatible
[11:05] software the most advanced level of the
[11:08] software and for the cyber security you
[11:11] know Hardware is part of it but it's
[11:14] continual
[11:16] education of employees just to be cent
[11:20] of the
[11:22] emails yeah phone calls text messages
[11:26] other things that com in you're
[11:28] designing to compromise Z Anthony can
[11:30] you share the cost to us please excuse
[11:34] me the cost for the for the
[11:37] 60
[11:39] 60700 weig 800 I think was
[11:43] like some cabling another things go with
[11:46] it yeah you're going to have we figured
[11:48] 50,000 right or
[11:52] 60,000 fig th000 a piece I was trying to
[11:56] get away with it at 800 but he
[12:02] the you just
[12:07] table I'm really thankful for you guys
[12:09] for the great leadership you know mayor
[12:11] and Council for supporting all these
[12:13] Technologies you know you know because
[12:16] uh you know this is the ransom where I
[12:19] have just this from sofos if you read it
[12:22] you know like the The Ransom price
[12:24] increased 500 times yeah so so in 2023
[12:28] it was like 1 million they will ask you
[12:31] now they're asking 5
[12:33] million and average cost of if you get
[12:36] rans somewhere to get all these lawyers
[12:38] different things to fix everything you
[12:40] know like public uh reputation things
[12:43] like that is 2.7 million AR spending who
[12:47] got it so we have to keep that in mind
[12:50] all the
[12:52] time if the council has any other
[12:54] detailed questions on
[12:56] that won't have that addressed in public
[13:00] session so that just some of the
[13:02] protocols we use and some of the things
[13:03] that are in place have to be done in
[13:06] executive
[13:09] session so that's something we should
[13:11] consider because we need to protect
[13:13] ourselves cyber security is not e thing
[13:17] I know Mia and you have been working
[13:19] really hard on protecting the
[13:22] city so we want we at a council want to
[13:24] provide Power of support yeah sure
[13:27] appreciate that you should be waiting
[13:29] any other question go
[13:32] ahead which one I'll just say on a
[13:35] personal note I find the trainings very valuable so um and I have learned a
[13:40] lot and it definitely has helped me um
[13:43] be more aware of um cyber security at
[13:47] home and and with the work that I do so
[13:49] I appreciate that yeah most of the time
[13:52] 70% of time it is a human error in this
[13:55] all these cases so we have to the one
[13:59] who is you know all these things we have
[14:03] to
[14:05] educate I have a question regarding a
[14:08] 16548 the phone expense um it's it's
[14:12] increased so what happens is uh we pay
[14:15] like uh u 2 years at a time okay because
[14:19] uh to get some discount bigger discount
[14:22] we pay annually like left so you could
[14:25] see uh 2023 that was 2024
[14:30] 2025 okay thank
[14:33] you any other question for this section
[14:36] well this is it's about the smart city
[14:38] but I guess it's really a funding uh
[14:40] because so how much is left in in where
[14:43] we have with the smart
[14:44] cities which one smart C smart C I'm
[14:47] going I'm going to turn I just want to
[14:49] complete this and I will turn to this U
[14:51] page page 39 okay he said was on page 39 yes any other question on this
[14:56] section well my my question was about
[14:58] the um fees for services line but it it
[15:01] was answered here by um either ban or or
[15:06] Derek and Anthony but um I was wondering
[15:08] about the um what was included in that
[15:11] line it's
[15:12] 16844 but I see it was the fees for
[15:16] various um software packages so I just
[15:18] wanted to let everybody know that other
[15:21] than software packaging there anything
[15:23] else service line so F service line um
[15:28] yeah I think I want to add I think a GIS
[15:33] software what we're doing is different
[15:36] department with chicking and they'll do
[15:39] uh you know give us like the cost is
[15:41] like 23 grand every year almost so
[15:44] engineering Police Department
[15:46] development they will ship in some money
[15:48] and do it this year also police
[15:50] department they have give us big chunk
[15:52] on their ground and development like big
[15:55] CH so that's true we we're true but I
[15:57] think next year I ask the chief did you
[15:59] put any money and I was confused like
[16:01] who is putting money on that right in
[16:03] budget and uh seems like Police
[16:06] Department put it like 8 Grand something
[16:10] rest 16 Grand I I think I want include
[16:13] somewhere some if other
[16:16] department 16k we should check and make
[16:19] sure it's in the police department is
[16:20] what you're saying the police department
[16:22] 8 Grand oh put 8 Grand yeah but if
[16:26] nobody put in the rest of it then I want
[16:27] to put in my
[16:31] somewhere okay any other question seeing
[16:34] on we'll move to page 39 and that's
[16:37] under Street lighting and a 5182 402
[16:42] administrative expense there was a
[16:44] question there and we need a a breakdown
[16:47] on the
[16:52] 71 so I'll go from
[17:00] so uh this 20 57 Grand uh which you see
[17:04] in there that is for the smart uh smart
[17:07] net
[17:08] renewal this we didn't pay until last
[17:11] year what happened was when we bought a
[17:13] product the industrial product it comes
[17:15] with 5 year of warranty and 5 year of
[17:18] licenses in there so we are good until
[17:21] last year this year we had to renew and
[17:24] this year we found money uh from some
[17:28] other uh accounts and for this year we
[17:30] are good but uh I think we have to get
[17:34] uh if this in next year we have to uh
[17:37] get this money how much is that 57 Grand
[17:40] oh 57 yeah so that is part of the
[17:43] 710 uh
[17:46] 51824 yes yeah that's part of that so
[17:49] I'm just going line by line here so to
[17:52] clarify these things and uh uh the smart
[17:57] uh the other one is 35 Grand that is
[18:00] also the license fee so other one of the
[18:02] smart net was like if something breaks
[18:04] they can fix it and replacement warranty
[18:07] kind of thing but 35 Grand is a license
[18:10] cost and U so I did like a lot of
[18:15] negotiation with the companies and uh we
[18:18] actually switch our licensing from alart
[18:21] licensing to the Enterprise agreement
[18:24] and they gave us quite a lot of discount
[18:25] from that so um it was like 2 three
[18:29] months of process for me to negotiate
[18:31] with the vendors to give us good
[18:36] pricing and other one is also 5600 is
[18:40] also licensing 5600
[18:44] yes uh yeah it's
[18:48] here uh so I'm I'm just uh recking it
[18:52] part so go ahead please okay and uh this
[18:56] 120 we had last year which is still 120
[18:59] for the genetic U 120
[19:04] 12000 new number which you see here is
[19:08] uh 460,000 this is uh this you didn't
[19:12] have to
[19:13] do uh before this is the first year
[19:15] coming up because we have this with last
[19:19] we have this R demo project going on
[19:22] which is expired now so we have to
[19:25] maintain all this did for the Smart City
[19:29] that's why this uh cost is 460 in
[19:34] here so it's a
[19:37] main their licensing and data and all
[19:41] those fees over Korea did you say that
[19:44] was a nice I think is that what you
[19:46] said oh National Grid okay
[19:55] sorry okay and uh two more things here
[19:59] uh so um one is that our video server is
[20:02] going to end up live next year around
[20:05] February so I want to get the replace
[20:08] that server with the new hardware and
[20:10] new uh storage in there so that is
[20:13] costing us with the license is like 32
[20:17] uh
[20:21] 45 I think adding those Mak it same time
[20:29] [Music]
[20:35] yeah you missing you know what we should
[20:37] do we should uh copy that list yeah I
[20:41] was ask you that share that section
[20:44] alone yeah so that we
[20:48] have go ahead please so um this is all
[20:51] shown up it's administrative expense
[20:52] when it sounds really like a lot of its
[20:54] equipment and contracts is there a
[20:56] reason that it's shown like that as
[20:58] opposed to because administrative people
[21:01] think that you immediately go to
[21:03] somebody's getting paid individual is
[21:05] getting paid as opposed to a company or buying supplies so I was just
[21:09] wondering if there's a reason that's
[21:10] shown like that as opposed to showing it
[21:16] as just the way it I think we just kep
[21:20] the
[21:21] same just the problems this year
[21:25] grown cion
[21:28] yeah would it be wise to move that under
[21:30] it department since it's it related
[21:33] stuff just it Department yeah but it's it's under street stre it's out in
[21:39] the field so it's should be in there
[21:43] most of stuff happens how feel
[21:47] right unless you you want to do a 4 402a
[21:51] say equipment or license
[21:53] software
[21:55] equipment and administr so you can
[21:58] description change so he doesn't you
[22:01] look at it administrative expense it's
[22:03] not really administrative
[22:05] expense yeah it would be helpful if you
[22:08] can do that
[22:10] easy
[22:13] yeah any question for go ahead please so
[22:17] it's about the smart so is this coming
[22:18] out of smart City no this
[22:21] is all right so do
[22:25] we what is our balance there and I guess
[22:27] I I guess trying to figure out how what
[22:30] part of lighting you were getting out of
[22:31] smart cities thought that was part of
[22:35] it actually paying for the things smart
[22:37] city is actually still paying for
[22:40] instulation of fiber and other stuff
[22:43] that was finishing throughout the city
[22:45] that's what the Smart City when C
[22:48] balance that's what we're doing with
[22:49] that this is actually like the light
[22:53] power and gas with the lights that's
[22:54] actually the uh Power
[23:02] whatever the question was what is the
[23:04] balance
[23:07] SM oh he's he does have he just put it
[23:09] down to answer the question
[23:12] okay yeah pleas this this is separate
[23:15] this is yeah
[23:17] so it would it would be helpful let's
[23:19] add a line and put that away from
[23:21] administrative anything in
[23:22] administrative line leave it in there
[23:24] and just move it out okay change the
[23:26] title all right yeah thank any other
[23:29] question for
[23:31] about anything else you're missing you
[23:34] want to highlight to us that is
[23:36] not that's confidential

[23:43] supposed to
[23:44] be yeah so I was going to if you have
[23:47] question or anything I I was going to
[23:49] break down on what services and things

[25:44] we've set up the school bus ticket
[25:46] program it has issued
[25:49] $4,850 tickets at
[25:51] $250 so far this year potential
[25:55] estimated revenue on such would be about
[25:57] 400
[25:59] ,000 we have um we have a first court
[26:02] date for that scheduled on Friday for
[26:04] people who are contesting their
[26:06] tiets uh We've set up a process to
[26:08] enforce the public nuisance Ordinance
[26:11] one has successfully been prosecuted
[26:13] three more are in the works we've done
[26:15] all of this while still Prosecuting code
[26:18] violations drafting legislation
[26:20] defending the city in litigation and
[26:22] providing legal advice with the council
[26:24] the mayor and the partner
[26:26] heads so in terms of our budget um we
[26:31] have switched it up a little bit in
[26:33] terms of attorney Staffing for next year
[26:36] so there is a line for myself for the
[26:39] Corporation Council there is a line for
[26:42] a full-time assistant Corporation
[26:46] Council then we have replaced the
[26:51] deputy with and the full-time assistant
[26:55] with four part-time assistant
[26:58] corporation councils which are listed
[27:01] under the
[27:02] perum object
[27:06] 121 we have we also have budgeted 55,000
[27:10] for uh law clerks and other
[27:14] assistants also cover if any of the
[27:16] assistant assistant Corporation councils
[27:19] go above the number of hours that we
[27:21] originally expected and then going back
[27:24] up um our records access officer
[27:28] um code enforcement specialist
[27:30] confidential secretary ips3 uh those
[27:33] positions are been standing in the
[27:36] department um there has been I believe a
[27:39] 3% raise applied to my salary and to
[27:43] confidential secretary for both
[27:46] management employees the others are um
[27:50] our Union and we'll find out what
[27:51] they're paid exactly once their contract
[27:54] is finalized
[27:58] um in terms of other
[28:01] expenses um we budgeted 25,000 for
[28:04] postage 2200 for administrative
[28:07] expenses 15,000 for advertising 15,000
[28:11] for fees for services uh travel and
[28:14] conferences that's uh that's
[28:18] for label proba to be switched up a
[28:20] little bit um that is for professional
[28:24] development conferences as well as um
[28:27] the bar registrations of myself and
[28:30] other full-time assistant preparation
[28:34] Council
[28:37] um um outside legal services so we hire
[28:41] outside Council
[28:43] 85,000 uh litigation support
[28:47] 35,000 supplies 4500 maintenance
[28:50] agreements
[28:51] 5,000 title searches 70,000 we do that
[28:54] as part of the foreclosure process the
[28:56] title searches
[29:01] so any questions yeah
[29:03] so why are you opting for part time
[29:06] rather than
[29:07] fulltime um system we have found that
[29:10] hiring um part-time we're able to get
[29:13] much more experienced people so we're
[29:14] getting better bang for our
[29:18] bu thank you go ahead please so so I see
[29:24] that
[29:26] like there's like 88 they're getting
[29:28] like 65,000 for the part for the
[29:31] part-time um corporate all well two of
[29:35] them are getting 65 one's getting 48 so
[29:38] this is like increasing the cost overall
[29:39] because the deputy Corporation
[29:43] Council if you even take if you divide
[29:45] the salary in half you're still pay more
[29:47] by two
[29:48] assistance the salary that you're taking
[29:50] out in addition to the other
[29:55] two um I'm sorry so you're saying you my
[29:59] understanding is you said that you took
[30:00] out the deputy right at
[30:03] 106 yeah and then uh added four parttime
[30:06] four part time to cover that plus
[30:09] another assistant plus a full-time
[30:11] assistant fulltime assistant 82 and
[30:15] 106
[30:18] 28 180 188 we decrease the per DM so if
[30:24] you look at 2024 there was 95,000
[30:28] this year
[30:29] budgeted or yeah so it's kind
[30:33] of you've taken that out we've taken
[30:35] that down to
[30:37] 55,000 so assistant so part-time people
[30:40] are always perum is my understanding so
[30:44] that's why they're listed um below perum
[30:47] salary but if you look at last year they
[30:50] had 95,000 in perum we in in general
[30:54] prium so we have 55,000 basically start
[30:58] some other and these other
[31:00] numbers would have normally been up
[31:04] here but it does
[31:06] it it winds up being relatively neutral
[31:10] okay I mean if we look at the bottom
[31:12] line um actually your overall total for
[31:16] your department is down um like like
[31:21] close to
[31:23] 20 I was asked to make Cuts so why made
[31:27] them
[31:28] I want to say too even though they're
[31:31] saying they don't get a salary of 65,000
[31:33] part time to get paid by whatever they
[31:36] work that's the max they can so that's
[31:38] up to
[31:39] 65,000 cut
[31:42] M can you cut them
[31:44] off sometimes some guys 12 hours 15s
[31:47] sometimes 20 you know so
[31:51] um yeah I mean
[31:53] we they're going on average now because
[31:56] they are getting the ones that work by
[31:58] the
[31:59] hour uh they're getting paid less when
[32:02] they work less than the number of hours
[32:04] and more they so I'm going have to keep
[32:06] an eye on the Total Lines
[32:10] yeah have go ahead I think it's I mean
[32:13] it seems like an interesting strategy
[32:15] because you probably can bring in
[32:17] different levels of expertise I mean
[32:19] different um what am I trying to say
[32:21] like different categories of expertise I
[32:24] don't know the legal uh term but you
[32:26] know so you might have
[32:28] real estate you might have you know I I
[32:30] don't know your work specifically but um
[32:33] I looked at that and thought well that's
[32:35] kind of cool that you can kind of um
[32:38] handpick like different areas of
[32:40] expertise um plus of course no benefits
[32:44] so uh they don't get any benefits right
[32:46] three of them do not get benefits one of
[32:48] them does oh out of the part times yeah
[32:50] but uh they don't the only benefits he
[32:54] gets
[32:55] is retirement
[32:58] one of the part time does get benefits
[33:01] but three
[33:04] don't don't call don't they don't get
[33:07] like medical stuff like that think he's
[33:09] just in the retirement system that's all
[33:12] which is required Social Security also
[33:16] yeah any other
[33:18] question go ahead please so just in
[33:21] terms of hierarchy so the Corporation
[33:23] Council is first with the next not be
[33:26] Deputy or is it associate Corporation
[33:29] Council um so the Corporation Council
[33:32] will be at the top of the hierarchy and
[33:34] then there are five assistant
[33:37] Corporation councils if there was a
[33:40] deputy would be the deputy fall next or
[33:43] the depy would fall next yeah than
[33:49] you any other
[33:52] questions anything else you want I do
[33:55] kind have a question this this just made
[33:57] it C
[33:58] so um so you're the fulltime offic
[34:00] Corporation Council then we have the
[34:01] assistant Corporation councel absent a
[34:03] deputy Corporation councel and let's say
[34:06] you're on vacation or your what at long
[34:09] term so then who becomes that person
[34:14] that is like kind of the law department
[34:16] overall the skill set
[34:19] for Gus Divine
[34:26] Mission it could be part
[34:29] time we work as a team part time here
[34:31] and then Part Time Corporation
[34:34] Council we work as a team so it could be
[34:38] it depends on what the question is the
[34:41] question is is who is like overall what
[34:44] the question is coming up where you have
[34:45] to answer it so whose expertise would
[34:48] you call it oh okay so you're not what
[34:51] is my question question
[34:54] okay thank you ma'am
[34:58] are we missing anything no I mean you're
[35:01] more than welcome to add if you
[35:04] like
[35:07] yourself thank you so much thank you and
[35:09] your team for all you doing for the city
[35:11] thank you all right so you can have to
[35:14] see there like um we'll go back to page
[35:19] three no page two
[35:22] sorry right yeah page
[35:24] two Finance Administration
[35:30] and we'll work our way down and close
[35:33] Finance
[35:36] Administration um the finance
[35:39] Administration increased by
[35:41] 3.44% from 397,000 to
[35:45] 58,000 as you can see the increase is
[35:47] due to the finance salary
[35:50] increasing uh toct industry average
[35:54] local p district uh the next um increase
[35:59] is due to a retirement that will come in
[36:02] 2025
[36:06] noing that up well since you since you
[36:09] mentioned that um I noticed people asked
[36:13] the councel for you know pay rais I
[36:15] would consider not
[36:17] reing 15% that's that's a serious
[36:22] consideration Mak of
[36:24] that okay and think about that sorry I'm just want to talk about the
[36:31] reasons why the increase for both uh if uh if I if I were to leave and and we
[36:38] need the opportunity to fill the
[36:40] position deputy and and the
[36:44] uh commissioner uh you we qualified
[36:47] people and and the way to do it is is is
[36:50] by salary to get qualified people if you
[36:53] seen you read it in the paper like the
[36:55] to of this commun uh there control which is a town of to 15,000 people
[37:01] their controllers 142,000 a year uh the
[37:06] town of uh the town of reram is 150,000
[37:09] for their controller and uh city of Troy
[37:12] which is also small house is 150,000 so
[37:15] what I'm saying is these numbers we
[37:17] trying to reflect is is toh to get the
[37:20] uh you can need proper and educated and
[37:23] experienced people uh in this position
[37:26] uh and it's
[37:28] and that that is why we requested these
[37:31] raises and
[37:34] salaries
[37:42] um Finance Administration that be
[37:49] complete oh go ahead please on finance
[37:52] ad so it's kind of a two-part question
[37:54] it's in this and the next but there was
[37:57] a reduction in the traveling conferences
[38:00] in this section in the problem section
[38:01] so I don't know if that's
[38:04] or we decided usually set two for each
[38:09] department this year we set one for
[38:12] each cut
[38:15] cutu we're looking to cut the budget
[38:18] where we
[38:21] can thank
[38:24] you if those travel confer training is
[38:28] necessary why cut it we S one set two
[38:32] comes back what we usually do we have
[38:34] two people going come back have them
[38:37] speak to our departments this time we're
[38:39] just going to have one you know yeah but
[38:41] you don't have a budget for
[38:44] the oh yeah oh for on 1310 the reason is
[38:48] because uh two free LIC two

[39:03] accounts and disbursement page

[39:13] increased by
[39:15] 4.10% 30,000
[39:19] 5,914 um the increase see is uh willing
[39:22] to promote our Junior accountant to

[42:27] or increase
[42:29] taxes no no we can take it
[42:34] $60,000 it's not a big deal yeah exactly
[42:37] it's not a big deal somewhere it's going
[42:39] to come up from it's not to make a
[42:41] difference all right rest of this uh
[42:45] 1989 contingency funds uh those are
[42:47] mostly used for emergency demolitions um
[42:50] or other
[42:52] emergencies um you see the credit card

[49:55] yours toal employ benefits increased 8%
[49:59] from 36.5 36.6 million to 39.6 million
[50:04] most of that could be attributed to uh
[50:09] U employee benefits for retirement um uh
[50:13] as you can see our police uh and Fire
[50:16] Work time benefits from 9.7 to 12
[50:19] million this is Def again as I spoke to
[50:22] you the other first day this directly

[50:26] and this is about funding the police and
[50:29] fire and the new 384e for Poli
[50:34] Department um the other big U increase
[50:38] was uh from
[50:42] uh Hospital medical insurance
[50:46] um the biggest biggest increase went
[50:49] from medical from 144 to
[50:52] 151 and the the Medicare reimbursement
[50:55] from a million to a million to 200,000
[50:57] increase uh this is just the cost of uh
[51:00] you know what's happening in in the
[51:02] medical business and Medicare we were
[51:05] very conservative on this we actually
[51:08] you
[51:10] have person who specializes and it's to
[51:13] look at it for us uh and we're we're
[51:17] very like on the slim side of the margin
[51:19] you know so if everything works out
[51:22] we're not going to have a problem you
[51:23] know if it doesn't you know we don't we
[51:25] don't know all depends you know because
[51:27] we're a self insurance so it really all
[51:28] depends on one person because you know
[51:31] we're really a small outfit if one
[51:32] person gets very very sick uh you know
[51:35] it can cost us you know a million dollars or so one of the biggest
[51:39] things that we're working out with our
[51:41] proac drug company is about specialized
[51:44] U special specialized specialty drugs
[51:48] which which has really in this last year
[51:52] increased over
[51:54] $700,000 cost you know
[51:57] that's you know
[51:59] hee TV what go the stuff fores believe
[52:05] it or not is like you $30,000 a shot you
[52:08] know
[52:09] so that so that's that's the big thing
[52:12] that we're watching we're working with
[52:14] the not only with our COA company
[52:17] they're working with the drug companies
[52:19] for uh certificates
[52:22] at yeah for rebates so that you know
[52:25] that's where we're open uh
[52:27] keep in this line at a tri Library we
[52:30] were very lucky with our Medicare
[52:32] Advantage plan last year we uh we got
[52:35] into the plan with MP what we made to
[52:38] guarantee us uh a certain rate for the
[52:41] second year which which which they did
[52:44] and as you can see it's costum sust it
[52:47] did in
[52:48] 2023 when we had a different group um
[52:51] but we only had a 6% increase but I
[52:54] heard other agencies even close by had
[52:56] close to 50% increase on
[52:59] their on the reimbursement plan so we
[53:01] were very lucky that we know already
[53:03] that next year we're going have to start
[53:06] looking for another plan and see we can
[53:08] get another R again you know jez is
[53:10] there one reason why we moved from y to
[53:13] us care us is
[53:16] MVP we're at yeah was pulling out of the
[53:20] market
[53:27] we went to MVP's us T so our our
[53:31] retirees who live throughout the country
[53:33] are covered okay got you and that's off
[53:37] to uh me see what else have there next
[53:40] page oh I'm sorry there any question on
[53:45] this so let me just pull my questions
[53:48] think I question I think I think M are
[53:50] answer yeah you can ask
[53:56] yeah I all right let's move to
[54:00] page well I just want to I do want to
[54:02] say that I think those discount programs
[54:05] that might be an interesting like either
[54:07] e newsletter or training um not training
[54:10] but um something to get out to the
[54:12] employees because I think there's so
[54:14] many of them that's that's done behind
[54:15] the scenes our we work with our drug
[54:17] company that actually does that oh they
[54:19] do do that they do that for us
[54:21] okay more and more that's that's what's
[54:24] keep helping us keep keep that line
[54:26] going
[54:27] but even with that the the cost doesn't
[54:29] reflect the real true cost of the actual
[54:31] medicine it's absolutely ridiculous oh
[54:33] yeah it's
[54:34] crazy country the world it's absolutely
[54:37] disgusting we we actually in in our part
[54:40] of our plan we have what's called canx
[54:42] yeah which we get drugs that
[54:44] unbelievably you know almost uh 30%
[54:47] cheaper than the American said but
[54:49] there's only they can only do a certain
[54:52] um what's the word you call a certain
[54:55] amount of drugs it can't be uh generic
[54:58] so it's a very very small list very
[55:01] small list and it saves US money but you
[55:05] know uh it's just too small that it's
[55:07] not to do drugs a lot of our employees
[55:09] use you know we do we do have some Habit
[55:11] to do two we save money on
[55:15] it um I think the next big uh our next
[55:18] big
[55:20] U next
[55:21] big is debt Debt Service page 54
[55:28] that would be the end our Deb service
[55:30] you know went from 7.6 million to 93
[55:34] million U that was because of you know
[55:37] uh
[55:38] we banded more money last year now we
[55:41] have two years Advance our if you see
[55:44] our debt service for bonds and uh uh
[55:47] other stuff that really actually gone
[55:50] down for our serial bonds a big increase
[55:52] was because we banded another year so
[55:55] the cost of you know paying the interest
[55:57] of those BS and principal you know is
[56:00] went up
[56:01] 900,000 and also if you see the
[56:06] installment purchases we purchased the
[56:07] new fire truck so right now we have two
[56:10] that we're paying off and so that's mil4
[56:15] is that's is the increase
[56:21] of and talking about Debt Service you
[56:23] know our debt what we try to do is uh is
[56:27] we're waiting to uh to see what the
[56:29] interest rates go down we know it went
[56:32] by went down half% what we do we work
[56:34] with our fiscal advisers and we see what
[56:37] the other municipalities are getting the
[56:39] rates are that's when we decide uh if
[56:41] we're going to B the bond we try
[56:43] internally our our plan internally is
[56:46] keep everything below
[56:47] 4% so really you know as you remember
[56:50] the past few years we refinance all our
[56:52] old Lins you know to below 4% so that
[56:56] that's actually helping us in the long
[56:58] run U right now our bands are right at
[57:01] that limit they're like at 4
[57:03] 3.96 so that's why we're continue to
[57:05] band if we see that the uh the interest
[57:08] rates are go down then we we will bind
[57:10] those bands you
[57:12] know yeah it's always so you you got to
[57:16] play the game to you know try to save
[57:18] money absolutely yeah wait until the
[57:21] interest rate um it's going to drop at
[57:24] some point in time we we think it's
[57:26] going to happen after the
[57:29] election's going to be there I think
[57:31] makes makes a
[57:42] difference just wants to hear from I'm
[57:44] not
[57:48] pass talking about lead lead pipes in
[57:52] the city thing I just read an article uh
[57:55] I think it was last about uh President
[57:57] Biden is actually putting out a plan yes
[58:00] to to to you know fun that stuff so so
[58:04] that's good news for us we're we're
[58:06] about to do a survey we're going to have
[58:08] funding to do the survey is coming up
[58:11] Monday Tuesday when do the election so
[58:13] we're hoping that if we can do that be
[58:16] great for all of us it's a great help
[58:17] and that was that's a question
[58:18] everybody's asking who's going to pay
[58:20] for this and that's why we need the
[58:22] message all to the the community to let
[58:24] them know that there is federal fund
[58:30] available it's not available yet but
[58:32] it's available but we just
[58:36] have now you said it is available no
[58:38] it's not it's going to be
[58:42] available is pushing it we're looking at
[58:44] Grand people to say yes they got to vot
[58:47] it
[58:47] [Music]
[58:49] through any other question on this
[58:52] section all right are we missing
[58:54] anything there
[58:56] think uh
[58:58] commission we
[59:01] everything yeah we did did Jud
[59:04] that's so the major thing in this whole
[59:07] budget as I mentioned the first day was
[59:09] you know benefits uh
[59:14] debt salaries
[59:16] and and
[59:19] retirement big
[59:23] factors that's that's that's you got to
[59:26] pay your employees you got to you know
[59:28] you got to pay the benefits and that's
[59:30] what the costs are and you know like if
[59:34] you're a business you know you raise
[59:35] your prices and government we try to
[59:38] find the other revenues which which
[59:40] we're doing with uh sales taxs with the
[59:44] um cannabis with the bus stop with the
[59:48] sell houses with you know do all this
[59:51] but our other course you know you have
[59:53] to raise fees and taxes and I'm sorry to
[59:55] say that I don't want to do because I I
[59:57] got to pay too you know but but that's just the thing of business you
[1:00:02] know I mean you so living for your in
[1:00:05] your house and you have to you have to
[1:00:07] raise the fees and
[1:00:10] taxes go ahead please just on a side
[1:00:14] note I wasn't the one meeting with the
[1:00:16] clerk's office and the dog licensing
[1:00:20] fees that I think is fairly
[1:00:22] straightforward to but I don't know see
[1:00:23] if you covered it the
[1:00:27] platform it's evolving would allow for
[1:00:31] the registration of cats other
[1:00:34] animals uh we're not looking to
[1:00:37] licensing because that'll fill City Hall
[1:00:39] people but people could put it into the
[1:00:42] system put a picture there so that if
[1:00:45] the fire department was going to the
[1:00:47] house they'd know there's a cat there
[1:00:49] that's great if the animal got lost or
[1:00:52] something or other pets or other pets
[1:00:54] too uh
[1:00:57] but would look so it's not for free
[1:01:00] there is a cost you type and maintain it
[1:01:03] a little bit so it's you know 10 bucks
[1:01:05] 20 bucks and I don't know if that's been
[1:01:09] included that's I want to say we need
[1:01:10] something of the S to added in does that
[1:01:13] need to be by resolution or does it need
[1:01:16] to be an ordinance I don't I think it's
[1:01:19] an ordinance well I don't know on that
[1:01:21] fee structure was that change so that
[1:01:24] the the dog licenses could be done by
[1:01:27] resolution it wasn't changed to that we
[1:01:30] were changing we're going to be having a
[1:01:31] public hearing Tuesday to change the
[1:01:33] ordinance for the dog licenses but that
[1:01:35] doesn't include the other pets and it
[1:01:37] doesn't include changing by
[1:01:40] resolution but the other thing with cats
[1:01:43] and other pets we have nothing in the
[1:01:46] ordinance or CH regarding that I don't
[1:01:49] know if that needs to be added in or can
[1:01:51] put in my
[1:01:53] resolution can we uh
[1:01:57] maybe submit something in favor of that
[1:02:00] so it's part of the record and the
[1:02:02] council
[1:02:04] to do it by resolution going forward and
[1:02:08] adding the other pets in it you know
[1:02:11] again say it's $20 registration it's one
[1:02:14] time
[1:02:15] fee
[1:02:17] uh you want it a one time fee because
[1:02:20] what if a person moves or they have you
[1:02:24] know we want to have it maintained
[1:02:27] yearly so that we know that the animal
[1:02:29] is still there at the house like the dog
[1:02:31] lies
[1:02:33] yeah we put more burden on you doing the
[1:02:36] upkeep yes that would be the
[1:02:39] ideal component I mean because
[1:02:41] eventually what we're hoping is that our
[1:02:43] police would know that there's a pet
[1:02:45] there to be rescued or you know taken
[1:02:48] care of whatever the case
[1:02:50] is is it registered how is it
[1:02:53] registered we'll have a well we don't we
[1:02:56] don't do a registry now but we're
[1:02:58] looking to implement it put it
[1:03:02] incription
[1:03:13] work legal to see what is needed and if
[1:03:16] we need an ordinance or a resolution or
[1:03:19] we need to amend anything and move
[1:03:20] forward to next week to add this as part
[1:03:23] of our Fe structure those Fe they're not
[1:03:26] in the is that Revenue oh oh yeah okay
[1:03:30] yeah yeah the revenue yeah the PD add
[1:03:32] all
[1:03:33] those and also
[1:03:36] afor so we'll follow up on that um in
[1:03:40] the next couple
[1:03:44] days so so would that up our Revenue
[1:03:47] well actually we have okay S I see that
[1:03:51] that's not going to be change the bottom
[1:03:53] line offset a little bit of the expenses
[1:03:56] and I hope to next year maybe add uh two
[1:04:00] home rules to change the cost of birth
[1:04:02] and death we haven't increased it in
[1:04:04] maybe two or more decades Albany has
[1:04:08] increased theirs but the only way we can
[1:04:10] change it is through home roll
[1:04:14] okay mean you mean to come and get a
[1:04:17] death certificate yeah the cost to get a
[1:04:19] copy of it we can't do anything with
[1:04:21] marriages but birth and death
[1:04:24] yes St raise their fees but don't allow
[1:04:27] the locali to raise theirs I
[1:04:32] see do you have to wait till next year
[1:04:34] to start the home why don't we start as
[1:04:38] hardly as we can and get those into the
[1:04:42] assembly start in
[1:04:45] January saying we can start put them
[1:04:48] together and get them we it out yeah so
[1:04:51] I think we should work on that in the
[1:04:52] next couple Cycles
[1:04:56] any other
[1:04:57] questions go ahead the overall amount on
[1:04:59] in this budget for ARA is one is 3.1
[1:05:02] million yeah
[1:05:10] Milli there was a spread sheet CL is
[1:05:19] 38278 all right um well the other
[1:05:22] question that came up the other day um
[1:05:23] Mr rush but you were sitting on
[1:05:26] but um about the 88 properties which is
[1:05:31] a little bit over 2 million that of U
[1:05:34] pending for no
[1:05:39] sales um so we have 86 properties
[1:05:42] according to our
[1:05:43] records
[1:05:45] um cancel so be
[1:05:48] 83 um have 29 active
[1:05:53] closings we have 12 that are waiting for
[1:05:55] re
[1:05:56] forclosure we have 15 that are
[1:05:59] contracted to bcni as an
[1:06:01] option um and two properties are
[1:06:04] licensed and the others um are in
[1:06:07] different phases some of these are from
[1:06:10] old resolutions so we have to locate the
[1:06:13] contracts my understanding is my
[1:06:15] predecessor used to do some sales based
[1:06:18] just on resolution so we're collecting
[1:06:21] some data on some of the ones that we
[1:06:23] need to locate the contracts on
[1:06:26] so you said there was 29 that active
[1:06:28] closings right now yeah so what I mean
[1:06:31] by that is U we either got clear a close
[1:06:34] or we've ordered title we're somewhere
[1:06:36] in the middle of closing sometimes they
[1:06:39] the buyer has to wait for the bank to
[1:06:40] get back to them so um I mean there
[1:06:44] that's what I counted from my my records
[1:06:47] so there's no um like estimate of how
[1:06:50] much money we would taken from those who
[1:06:52] are at least in that process those 20 I
[1:06:56] mean I can put that together for you for
[1:06:58] Monday if you like Tuesday or Tuesday
[1:07:01] for the next committee
[1:07:03] meeting but yeah I can put that together
[1:07:06] the amount from the active V Active
