1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,000
so and when you um are looking for the

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:04,600
full-time employees are you considering

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,520
the seasonals who were good workers yes

4
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:09,760
they they they are the first come we we

5
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,440
look at our seasonals that we you know

6
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,480
um we have a program to their seasonals

7
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,400
that um if they'd like to go get their

8
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,560
permit um they go get their permit for

9
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,279
CDL we give them training we have two

10
00:00:24,279 --> 00:00:26,160
gentlemen um within the bar who are

11
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,400
trained to provide the classroom

12
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:29,519
instructions now because the uh CDL

13
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:32,800
requirement have changed um we give them

14
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,160
their required hours on the truck um and

15
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:38,200
we give them a truck to go get their for

16
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,120
test with and keep a couple openings

17
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,280
because that is sort of the program that

18
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,559
they are successful in doing that

19
00:00:45,559 --> 00:00:47,120
transition um then there's a

20
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,120
recomendation recommendation made put

21
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,000
them in as a permanent Meo which is a

22
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,719
you know

23
00:00:53,719 --> 00:00:56,120
driver but some of the seasonals prefer

24
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,199
they don't want the responsibility of

25
00:00:57,199 --> 00:01:00,879
driving or they still want whatever

26
00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:03,120
but yes all the labor loaders last year

27
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:04,839
that we hired all came from the Good

28
00:01:04,839 --> 00:01:06,400
Seasons that were working already in

29
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,360
jally and the four are granted in this

30
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,080
budget those four will be they'll come

31
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,600
from the seil that we have don't go

32
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,640
outside don't think that would be fair

33
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,759
so they're they're promoted from with it

34
00:01:18,759 --> 00:01:21,870
okay thank

35
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,240
you go ahead please so I remember last

36
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,640
year we were talking about that um that

37
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,040
instructor uh kind of In-House

38
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,280
instructor um I think you were hinting

39
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,119
to that a little bit right now so that

40
00:01:33,119 --> 00:01:35,880
seems to be currently have two of them

41
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,840
and um yes one

42
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,240
um they do the in-house training that's

43
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,320
required now for the federal Moto

44
00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:48,119
carrier um and then after that they uh

45
00:01:48,119 --> 00:01:50,200
you know it doesn't have to be them to

46
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,079
give them the road hours any driver just

47
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:53,399
like if you have a permit you can get in

48
00:01:53,399 --> 00:01:55,520
with a license driver they'll drive a

49
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,640
truck with one of the other uh licensed

50
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,640
drivers and then that trainer though

51
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,000
that um he feels confident and he wants

52
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,360
to take his road test that trainer will

53
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,360
work with him um all morning scheduled

54
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,679
the test early afternoon they work with

55
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:11,239
them all morning you know to go over

56
00:02:11,239 --> 00:02:12,879
some of the things free trip different

57
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:16,519
things like that they take him to the um

58
00:02:16,519 --> 00:02:18,040
you know where the test is given the

59
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,560
road test is given um with one of our

60
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:25,160
vehicles and it hopes that you know they pass if not they get another chance

61
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,519
it's not like don't lose their job that

62
00:02:28,519 --> 00:02:30,920
really passes the test the first time

63
00:02:30,920 --> 00:02:33,120
so we do since the implementation of

64
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,560

93
00:04:06,959 --> 00:04:10,000
rate increases for the water budget and

95
00:04:13,959 --> 00:04:19,590
appropriate

96
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,000

before um FX

100
00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:35,360
2041 yes

101
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:41,230
making okay so we going that

102
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,390
[Music]

103
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:52,390
that and we'll go to

104
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,960
expense specific questions on the

105
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,039
expenses water Administration didn't

106
00:04:59,039 --> 00:05:01,240
Chang slightly

107
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,440
um raises IPS there's an ips3 that now

108
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,960
that there's a list established that

109
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,120
position will be fill

110
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,120
um longevity overtime slightly went up

111
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,560
but that's anticipation of um there was

112
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,240
some longevity increases so um somebody

113
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,960
hit a different milone on

114
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,880
longevity Qui need to put $2,000 in for

115
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,960
Cas there's a computer that's getting

116
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:32,919
quite old downstairs so have computer um

117
00:05:32,919 --> 00:05:35,280
other expenses pretty much stayed the

118
00:05:35,280 --> 00:05:38,960
same um there was no change in other

119
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,919
expenses commercial accounts um again s

120
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:47,479
did our plumber um longevity to go up by

121
00:05:47,479 --> 00:05:49,800
him because he hit the next the the next

122
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,600
tier for longevity so very minor changes

123
00:05:52,600 --> 00:06:01,510
there um

124
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,080
so be clear that's just that's a step

125
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,919
that that increased there yeah there's a

126
00:06:06,919 --> 00:06:11,440
step on longevity um so um it's 5 years

127
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,240
10 years 15 years so it does increase

128
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,280
that number comes straight from payroll

129
00:06:16,280 --> 00:06:17,960
um it goes based on their start date or

130
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,400
their higher date so if they hit that

131
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,680
next Milestone there's another it's also

132
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,319
based on

133
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:26,039
maneral

134
00:06:26,039 --> 00:06:31,870
guys benefits

135
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:38,150
any other question on this

136
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,440
SE Reservoir Supply the cost is

137
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,000
Landscaping um we do have a contract the

138
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,479
LA there now um two they're doing also

140
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,400

um earlier in the year um the first

142
00:06:57,919 --> 00:07:00,039

143
00:07:00,039 --> 00:07:04,639
the next one um the next highest one and

144
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:06,199

properties through the city to M um

157
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,560
there's usually four or five people that

158
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:30,960
come and do the reservoir because of the

159
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:36,039
hills there um so it's quite extensive

160
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:38,080
um it takes about 4 hours 4 and a half

161
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,000

00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,040
so there's a little bump time and a half

188
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,600
is time and a half there always go up

189
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,560
um biggest um increase in the pumping is

190
00:09:09,560 --> 00:09:11,720
going to be the light power and gas and

191
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,480
that is the um electric use um and the

192
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,920
uh the chemicals chemicals are going up

193
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,640
on a regular basis um we bid them every

194
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:26,590
year um and power goes up too um

195
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,680
so the amount of electricity that being

196
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:32,399
used isn't going up but the rate for the

197
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:38,230
electrical C per kilowatt is going

198
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,480
up that's about like 400 almost

199
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:46,670
$450,000 more

200
00:09:46,680 --> 00:09:52,680
M those pumps are 300 horsepower pump

201
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:57,680
there and September that's at

202
00:09:57,680 --> 00:09:59,880
89,000 that's actually not through

203
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:01,120
September that's

204
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,760
actually so through you know probably

205
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,880
July through middle of August

206
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,110
8,000 just for this

207
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,680
department and you got to realize we had

208
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:18,360
a very dry um summer so people used a

209
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,560
lot of water so we you know a little

210
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:26,030
more water than

211
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,000
normal good any questions

212
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,079
uh water distribution and that's all the

213
00:10:32,079 --> 00:10:33,600
pipes that's coming out of the bureau

214
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,720
service um not any big changes there

215
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,880
some slight changes based on salaries um

216
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,320
and then of course CCA

217
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:49,000
um not settled their contract yet

218
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,920
um hydrants um we to drop a little bit

219
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,240
uh when I did the budget

220
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,680
I I went through everything we had our

221
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,320
inventory um last year we put $100,000

222
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,959
into henss we have extra hens down there

223
00:11:02,959 --> 00:11:05,320
that we didn't have a really bad winter

224
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,000
last winter so a lot of henss did not

225
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,720
get hit and destroyed so um we do um

226
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,600
build insurance companies when that

227
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:13,800
happens

228
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,000
and pretty successful getting

229
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,800
reimbursement um but we do have a fair

230
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,160
amount of so inventory so we did cut

231
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,200
that back so it's a $50,000 cut there

232
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,440
um overall I don't

233
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,480
overall whole change on percent for

234
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:41,710
water

235
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,440
was

236
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,240
2.8% pretty flat there's no rate

237
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:54,750
increases on

238
00:11:54,760 --> 00:12:01,150
water any questions on this section

239
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:02,310
see we move

240
00:12:02,310 --> 00:12:22,790
[Music]

241
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,959
to the Sewer budget po25 sewer budget

242
00:12:26,959 --> 00:12:29,600
request a 5.5% increase compared four

243
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,720
adop budget uh increase of 864,000

244
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,720
approximately uh we suggest no increases

245
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:37,639
in

246
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:41,279
fee to budget and we are using

247
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:46,310
appropriate debt reserves 261,000

248
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,310
any question on

249
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,279
Revenue n Go ahead I do want to I mean

250
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:55,880
so um looks like we're going up a bit in

251
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,440
um septic sludge and um well course the

252
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,680
interest 2122 up uh yep yes I was just

253
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:06,560
wondering um that's a good thing I I

254
00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:07,839
think it's a great thing I just wanted

255
00:13:07,839 --> 00:13:09,720
to find out a little bit more about it

256
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,959
no it's we have um you know we receive

257
00:13:12,959 --> 00:13:16,399
outside Sage from hallers at the wh Tre

258
00:13:16,399 --> 00:13:18,959
um that materal it's processed in our

259
00:13:18,959 --> 00:13:22,160
digesters um so we are taking in

260
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,399
material from the outside haulers um

261
00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:26,680
they come in I'm anticipating that

262
00:13:26,680 --> 00:13:27,839
that's going to grow a little bit more

263
00:13:27,839 --> 00:13:31,629
this year um

264
00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:33,760
thank

265
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,560
you any other question if not we move

266
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:52,790
into

267
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,800
expense shower they're not going up by

268
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,959
much if you look at the administrator

269
00:13:56,959 --> 00:14:01,440
shows 182 to 19 one um about

270
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,959
$10,000

271
00:14:02,959 --> 00:14:06,160
um some is contractual um some is

272
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,279
management raises um there is an IPS in

273
00:14:09,279 --> 00:14:13,560
there um currently working there um

274
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:14,839
unsure what that'll be because that's

275
00:14:14,839 --> 00:14:17,160
CSA again that contract has to be

276
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:22,279
settled um s per DM no change in the

277
00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:25,240
number of employees U still 18 those are

278
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,480
all um union members so anything that

279
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,240
will be there is going to be contractual

280
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,120
um same longevity went down a little um

281
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,800
must have had somebody retire so that

282
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,519
dropped a little bit um and also

283
00:14:39,519 --> 00:14:42,880
overtime um you know based on our today

284
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,720
expenditures um I was I us that by about

285
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,040
$6,000 I'm comfortable with those

286
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,240
numbers um actually un comfortable with

287
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,639
all numbers I would put them in the

288
00:14:53,639 --> 00:14:56,639
budget again the other

289
00:14:56,639 --> 00:15:00,279
grade that is the uh the Masons

290
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:01,880
everything else is working and as our

291
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,279
salaries go up those autog grades are

292
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:06,600
going to go up to a little bit more

293
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,959
so um standby pay um that is for the

294
00:15:10,959 --> 00:15:13,079
Emergency sewer truck the emergency

295
00:15:13,079 --> 00:15:15,759
sewer truck that's on 24 hours a day

296
00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:18,440
seven days a week so contractually those

297
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,720
members get a standby pce for being on

298
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,550
call for the weekends and

299
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:30,079
holidays see per me in overtime um based

300
00:15:30,079 --> 00:15:33,000
on what we spent um and where we are now

301
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,959
um that's why you're going to see the

302
00:15:34,959 --> 00:15:37,040
drop in the sanitary SCH

303
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,920
compensation ini last year

304
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,749
107

305
00:15:44,759 --> 00:15:47,240
145 is that just based on Staffing

306
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,519
patterns because we're fos that still

307
00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:51,519
have some openings to fill

308
00:15:51,519 --> 00:15:53,519
there but

309
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:55,880
again when we do our budget we look at

310
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,319
where we are to date and where we think

311
00:15:58,319 --> 00:16:01,319
we're going to be and a

312
00:16:01,319 --> 00:16:04,000
year um I work with my other department

313
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,120
heads um to come with a budget that we

314
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,319
think is going to be accurate and

315
00:16:07,319 --> 00:16:13,710
reflect what we're going to spend next

316
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:19,240
year so total ceter sewer um from the 24

317
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:24,560
adopted budget 1.72 s um and 25 is going

318
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:35,829
be 1714

319
00:16:35,839 --> 00:16:40,309
any

320
00:16:40,319 --> 00:16:44,509
question Tre

321
00:16:44,519 --> 00:16:48,550
disposal

322
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,560
again I don't know if you have any

323
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,480
specific line items but um you know

324
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,000
staff has not changed

325
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,839
um um in those uh s

326
00:16:59,839 --> 00:17:02,279
um we do have a couple opening currently

327
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:05,000
I think Anthony I sent Anthony the

328
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,280
vacancy request I think there's two

329
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,799
um two maintenance personnel and uh I

330
00:17:12,799 --> 00:17:16,679
two traines um currently um we don't

331
00:17:16,679 --> 00:17:19,079
typically find operators um we start the

332
00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:21,959
train unforunately operators that

333
00:17:21,959 --> 00:17:24,199
usually come over from another

334
00:17:24,199 --> 00:17:27,039
municipality usually comfortable

335
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:30,160
so probably by the we just lost one to

336
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,360
retirement so um about two weeks ago so

337
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:34,520
we'll probably be looking at filling

338
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,600
that by the end of the year so we want

339
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,000
to make sure there's no test scheduled

340
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,320
for civil service because we want to

341
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,120
make sure that we follow those rules and

342
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:45,320
don't get somebody on and can't get the

343
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,840
test so the vacancies is that what

344
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:49,960
you're talking about you plan on filling

345
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,559
or the one

346
00:17:51,559 --> 00:17:54,840
that we'll fill both of those um

347
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,440
typically we try to do 10 operators um

348
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,120
well 10 operators but normally one in

349
00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:02,039
what we'll call one training we'll

350
00:18:02,039 --> 00:18:04,200
probably have a couple trainings now

351
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,320
again the waste water treatment plant

352
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,159
your training um you take the Civil

353
00:18:10,159 --> 00:18:11,559
Service EX in because we don't send

354
00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:15,159
somebody to school um you know thought

355
00:18:15,159 --> 00:18:16,240
if they don't pass the civil service

356
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,280
test we're not be retaining so there's

357
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,520
an expense to the city there's a twoe

358
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,919
course or laboratory there's a week

359
00:18:22,919 --> 00:18:25,640
course for activating Sledge um that's a

360
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,520
cost the city pays to send them to

361
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,520
school but we do that once

362
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,640
complete their soci service exam and

363
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,280
then um depending on when they do that

364
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,400
um we require 3A license we'd like to

365
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,960
see a 3A license at the waste water

366
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,039
treatment plant and that takes four

367
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,559
years of um experience at the plan

368
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:48,240
before you can get a letter

369

392
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,240
capital for for water weal Feld

393
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:30,039
improvements typically we redevelop um

394
00:20:30,039 --> 00:20:31,960
trying to do two Wells a year depending

395
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,240
on the hours we put on the bo with the

396
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,000
amount of hours we put on the wells

397
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,679
because of the warm summer last year

398
00:20:38,679 --> 00:20:43,400
asked for um $250,000 to try and do two

399
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,679
Wells and that's where um contract

400
00:20:46,679 --> 00:20:49,000
redevelops those walls cleans them new

401
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,600
wall screens we take the motors out

402
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,679
Motors go get rewound so it's it's what

403
00:20:53,679 --> 00:20:56,880
we call maintenance um you know

404
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,880
underalls um the water distribution

405
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,280
system repairs and improvements

406
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,480
$350,000 that is you water our water

407
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,520
bcks and you know replacing um vales um

408
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,919
insert vales um so we always try and do

409
00:21:12,919 --> 00:21:15,559
something every year um and then the

410
00:21:15,559 --> 00:21:17,000
other thing too is we always have some

411
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,640
of those emergency once they come off

412
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,840
that we just can't handle them we have

413
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,880
to have somebody set aside in capital

414
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,080
for improvements um

415
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:32,320
so the uh the hdv the H HD van um our um

416
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,640
plumbing inspector SL plumber his van is

417
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,120
I think it's got to be about 15 years

418
00:21:38,120 --> 00:21:42,360
old it's um just it's all the heart so

419
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:45,240
um he does need a new van um he travels

420
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,000
all over the city does a lot of work in

421
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,159
all our facilities um because he's also

422
00:21:49,159 --> 00:21:52,279
the plumber so whether it's any City

423
00:21:52,279 --> 00:21:54,600
facility he's rebuilding all the pipes

424
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,840
that the Vandal destroyed at um Hil Park

425
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,760
um the pickle ball people didn't have

426
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,159
water a few weeks ago because somebody

427
00:22:02,159 --> 00:22:07,000
broke in and took all the to so um he's

428
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,760
he goes all around fixes everything hot

429
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,120
water tanks the toilets everything so he

430
00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:14,360
does need a b and um that's the request

431
00:22:14,360 --> 00:22:16,559
for is in the

432
00:22:16,559 --> 00:22:20,240
van that are the three items for water

433
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,240
wait we have we're going to be adding

434
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,760
one for C and Main yeah PR and Main

435
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,919
we're going to do um a million we're

436
00:22:28,919 --> 00:22:31,000
going to take a million dollar off of

437
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,760
the um wastewater treatment plant bar

438
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,720
Spring that million dollars because it's

439
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,039
going to be

440
00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:40,159
borrowed and talking to Chris Wall that

441
00:22:40,159 --> 00:22:44,240
big project for the Craig main project

442
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,799
um we have some large water mains here

443
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:48,520
one only goes a couple blocks but there

444
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,960
a 30in main that um suffered a break

445
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,480
already once last year broke under the

446
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,080
bridge was expensive for us to get fixed

447
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,640
wasn't something um crew could

448
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,360
handle so like we did with these um with

449
00:23:03,360 --> 00:23:05,480
Area Boulevard these big projects that

450
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,000
are you know 1012 million we need to

451
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:08,960
really go in and look at the

452
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,480
infrastructure um before we do all the

453
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,960
on top work so we're going to a million

454
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,080
we're going to hold off on the bar

455
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,159
Springs um design for a year and put

456
00:23:19,159 --> 00:23:21,159
that into the Craig main to make sure

457
00:23:21,159 --> 00:23:23,440
those water lines get replaced and U

458
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,320
everything gets repaired there before we

459
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,159
do all the surface work sidewalks

460
00:23:28,159 --> 00:23:29,480
everything

461
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,279
okay and fig well you want to do a 121

462
00:23:32,279 --> 00:23:34,080
13 million project we wanted the

463
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,919
infrastructure to be well we you want to

464
00:23:35,919 --> 00:23:37,960
do the project then have to Red dig it

465
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,559
and fix it you

466
00:23:39,559 --> 00:23:41,600
know we're trying to stay ahead of the

467
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,320
game so Anthony you will that you will

468
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,720
do that you know this has happened

469
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,960
within the last few

470
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,480
days sewer collection system repairs and

471
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,840
improvements is just like above with

472
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,960
water um we do lining do a lot of things

473
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,080
in our sewer system a lot of repairs a

474
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,039
lot of catch basing so um you know again

475
00:24:02,039 --> 00:24:04,440
we're going to continue to work on on

476
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,510
major sewer

477
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,679
repairs Vehicles obviously we need

478
00:24:10,679 --> 00:24:12,640
Vehicles a lot of our vehicles are well

479
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,799
over 15 years and some of the smaller

480
00:24:14,799 --> 00:24:18,400
ones the um pickup trucks um the utility

481
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,400
truck with the crane um so those are

482
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,039
replacing just old worn out vehicles

483
00:24:24,039 --> 00:24:26,000
that we're putting a lot of money in the

484
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,840
wastewater treatment equipment replaced

485
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,159
there a list of equipment that um it all

486
00:24:30,159 --> 00:24:32,399
adds up to different things with return

487
00:24:32,399 --> 00:24:34,919
pumps so we just grew up we grouped it

488
00:24:34,919 --> 00:24:37,600
as a equipment

489
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,480
replacement um and then the bigger item

490
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,520
is the digestor number four upgrades the

491
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,799
digestors

492
00:24:45,799 --> 00:24:49,120
um there two active digesters at the

493
00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:50,840
wastewater treatment plant one holding

494
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,200
tank and one

495
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,080
secondary they were constructed in the

496
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,279
early to mid-50s still utiliz

497
00:24:59,279 --> 00:25:03,320
um they still work um but they do need

498
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,960
repairs um they reduce the vola solids

499
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,720
content and the sledge that we process

500
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,799
that makes our Sledge capable of going

501
00:25:09,799 --> 00:25:11,799
to different homes when we dispose of it

502
00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:15,880
so um without that um we be restricted

503
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,200
to more just single landfills where we

504
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,000
can move our SED to different places now

505
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,240
so um there's a gas system there um

506
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,039
people gone by you've seen the flare

507
00:25:26,039 --> 00:25:29,279
burning um so again it's just one of the

508
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:32,120
processes that it doesn't turn off there

509
00:25:32,120 --> 00:25:34,039
it runs

510
00:25:34,039 --> 00:25:36,679
constantly like I said the digestors

511
00:25:36,679 --> 00:25:38,559
were mid-50s so they do need some

512
00:25:38,559 --> 00:25:42,080
repairs and concrete worth um some of

513
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,120
the uh the roof structures they need new

514
00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:53,350
seals so new heat exchangers

515
00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:56,159
um so then there was a no balance on

516
00:25:56,159 --> 00:25:59,399
approximately $7 million be in 2026 so

517
00:25:59,399 --> 00:26:00,679
that's going to be put on hold also

518
00:26:00,679 --> 00:26:03,080
because you're moving that million

519
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,000
dollars yeah the waste water replace the

520
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,679
Barre design only um because the

521
00:26:10,679 --> 00:26:12,120
upgrades that were done from The Pump

522
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:13,760
Station the for for the Waste Water

523
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,640
treatment in the past couple years give

524
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,960
you a good example um our plant is

525
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,200
designed to do 18 permitted to do 18

526
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,440
half million gallons a day when it rains

527
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,720
though we we exceed that that's not a

528
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,310
violation it's the rain day that

529
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,039
the 45 years I've been around um the

530
00:26:33,039 --> 00:26:35,720
most we've seen was Hurricane FL was

531
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,039
about 39 million gallons um the storm we

532
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:42,679
had say two months ago we hit 52 million

533
00:26:42,679 --> 00:26:44,520
gallons going to the plant it's never

534
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,080
been there but with we have to handle

535
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,600
all this flow now that was part of the

536
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,559
consent order that we had so with bar

537
00:26:51,559 --> 00:26:55,200
Spring design there is to increase those

538
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,080
so they can handle more FL they handle

539
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,559
it but it struggles for them and they're

540
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:04,520
also probably 15 years old so we thought

541
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,360
we would look at the design this year I

542
00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:09,559
get ready and then if the design is

543
00:27:09,559 --> 00:27:11,279
there we all know that usually when I

544
00:27:11,279 --> 00:27:12,679
look at design it's because I want to

545
00:27:12,679 --> 00:27:14,520
try and get great money and if we're

546
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,520
designed and shovel ready we have the

547
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,600
potential to you know apply for grant

548
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:24,120
money quicker um so you know the bar

549
00:27:24,120 --> 00:27:26,480
screens are working wanted to do the

550
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,360
design but you know if you look at where

551
00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:32,360
your real critical needs are um doing

552
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:34,960
$12 million of work on Craig at Maine

553
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,279
and not doing the

554
00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:41,990
infrastructure it's a little bit of a

555
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,720
tradeoff

556
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:49,399
julo so does this make us does this hurt

557
00:27:49,399 --> 00:27:51,320
our ability or likelihood of receiving

558
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:52,679
set grants because we're going to have

559
00:27:52,679 --> 00:27:54,760
to hold it off no because it would take

560
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,600
them probably a year to keep design I

561
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,640
think we we'll be fine I mean this is

562
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,519
just something what you you start

563
00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:01,919
looking at things you try and look at

564
00:28:01,919 --> 00:28:03,600
least I do you

565
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,240
know ahead and you know trying to get a

566
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,360
jump start on the design you know would

567
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:11,760
have been nice but um we're not you know

568
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,240
it's not like they're down they're not

569
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,360
going to fail tomorrow um you know but

570
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:18,360
it was to get a jump start um but when

571
00:28:18,360 --> 00:28:20,320
you have to look and say what's more

572
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,360
critical where should those dollars be

573
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:33,470
SM I think it's um

574
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,159
any other question but isn't this

575
00:28:35,159 --> 00:28:36,760
holding back the project I if you have

576
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,960
the design working you have the design

577
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,440
other thing you got to realize once the

578
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,640
design is there you know that's the

579
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,159
design um I think if you want to look at

580
00:28:45,159 --> 00:28:46,600
a budget number to replace those you're

581
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,830
probably going to look at about $9

582
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,919
million so it's a big project and you

583
00:28:53,919 --> 00:28:56,679
know can't you just do the design

584
00:28:56,679 --> 00:29:00,000
yeah I old days we had a lot of R there

585
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:05,430
guys would rap the

586
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:14,269
racks in my opinion we can we can

587
00:29:14,279 --> 00:29:19,149
here and the other question on this

588
00:29:19,159 --> 00:29:22,919
category St on thank you appreciate it

589
00:29:22,919 --> 00:29:26,120
you and all your St what you doing you

590
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,840
want to you want to discuss

591
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,509
it's to

592
00:29:32,519 --> 00:29:34,120
you

593
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,760
the you any questions here I don't think

594
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,360
that the council has been briefed on it

595
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,519
at all last time you came you talk about

596
00:29:41,519 --> 00:29:42,960
kind of when you were asking about the

597
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,120
Seeker but um didn't really go into that

598
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,440
and there was a little confusion um and

599
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,240
the Seeker obviously we we uh discussed

600
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,840
that and I uh last Monday night um it's

601
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,120
Ty so there's no environmental impact

602
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:04,120
it's it's a survey so so there's no no but the second part of that was we

603
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,480
was the award of the g m um and I think

604
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,440
Derek did send something out um this

605
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:12,880
afternoon and it's whether we can get

606
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,279
this in because um we were awarded a

607
00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:16,519
grant for

608
00:30:16,519 --> 00:30:28,070
6 I say $

609
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:32,480
it's not going to cost us anything it's a grant um but it was part of the

610
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,600
Seeker and in order for that to go

611
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,519
through we have to have the Seeker which

612
00:30:36,519 --> 00:30:38,360
was discussed funny night and the

613
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,880
council's approval to just accept that

614
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,200
Grant and move forward it's um you know

615
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,200
100% grant money there's no City match

616
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,360
it's just grant money um and I'd like to

617
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,000
talk to Derek I would like to get it

618
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,159
done so that we can move forward because

619
00:30:54,159 --> 00:30:56,720
the survey is out it's on the city's

620
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,799
website um

621
00:30:58,799 --> 00:31:00,200
you know we have a lot of work to finish

622
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,320
on this survey um and we do have a

623
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,559
consultant that's working with us and

624
00:31:04,559 --> 00:31:07,440
now that this Grant's available we can move forward with the consultant

625
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,720
and get it done um it's not something

626
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:10,799
that's going to be done instantly

627
00:31:10,799 --> 00:31:13,000
because it does involve

628
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,039
the we all saw the the surveys whether

629
00:31:16,039 --> 00:31:17,880
you have you know a lead service a

630
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,960
copper service a plastic or you know

631
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,760
galvanized service and again we don't

632
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,320
have a big response from um Property

633
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,440
Owners getting back to us um

634
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,279
confusion the confusion with this uh

635
00:31:30,279 --> 00:31:31,880
with the grant was we did the Seeker we

636
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,720
knew that was working but because we're

637
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,159
told oh you got to have the Seeker apply

638
00:31:36,159 --> 00:31:38,480
for a grant so what that happened is

639
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,039
once we let them know that's a secret

640
00:31:40,039 --> 00:31:41,799
pass and you know you know it's going to

641
00:31:41,799 --> 00:31:44,200
pass tonight you know they told us okay

642
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,600
we we're we're going to give you a grant

643
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,880
so we did not have to do the bond or

644
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,559
because they didn't ask us to to do the

645
00:31:50,559 --> 00:31:53,960
bond it's not a bond Bing money usually

646
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,279
what they do but we want usually what

647
00:31:57,279 --> 00:31:59,600
they do is before they give you a grant

648
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,279
they want you to be serious and what

649
00:32:01,279 --> 00:32:02,960
they do is do Bond ORD so we know you're

650
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,519
going to be serious about do this

651
00:32:04,519 --> 00:32:06,600
project this one they were just so I

652
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:07,760
think the money they just want to give

653
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,279
it to us so they told us we got the

654
00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:12,880
grant so we don't need the bond or you

655
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,320
know so then we got gr it's not requ

656
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,559
just to accept it Bond ORD is not

657
00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:21,519
required as part of the application that

658
00:32:21,519 --> 00:32:24,679
received to Grant so that's confusion

659
00:32:24,679 --> 00:32:26,799
just acceptance of the council accepting

660
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:29,360
the grant

661
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,080
so so this money is just to pay for

662
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,960
the yes pay consultant and make sure

663
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,960
consultant any work um you know any leg

664
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,960
work that will have to be done by any

665
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:41,880
other firms can help us because there'll

666
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,720
be mailing again because the on surday

667
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,799
went out we didn't get a very little

668
00:32:46,799 --> 00:32:50,799
response um it will help pay if um we

669
00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:53,039
have to get somebody to do door the

670
00:32:53,039 --> 00:32:55,480
door you know knock on the door leave a

671
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,240
card and you call and set up an

672
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,440
appointment

673
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,600
the survey is required by EPA it's not

674
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:07,350
something that you can just not do

675
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,039
it's and you have to have I'm sorry that

676
00:33:11,039 --> 00:33:12,639
was kind of my question what is your

677
00:33:12,639 --> 00:33:14,399
plan because you said people aren't

678
00:33:14,399 --> 00:33:17,720
sending them back so how do we if if the

679
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,440
survey is an absolute must in order to

680
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,279
do this how do we how we get some level

681
00:33:22,279 --> 00:33:24,399
of completion and is there a uh only a

682
00:33:24,399 --> 00:33:25,960
certain amount like sometimes you have

683
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,360
to get at least 75% of the people C your

684
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,559
an amount 100% has to be 100% okay so

685
00:33:32,559 --> 00:33:34,399
what the survey will help pay for okay

686
00:33:34,399 --> 00:33:36,840
is like I said the Consulting Services

687
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,960
mailing services um what I'll call um

688
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,720
foot services for a company to come in

689
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,639
and actually look we already discussed

690
00:33:44,639 --> 00:33:46,799
it internally with our consultant do

691
00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:48,880
like our districts go door to door and

692
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,519
leave cards um if that doesn't work um

693
00:33:52,519 --> 00:33:54,919
some cities are actually doing holes

694
00:33:54,919 --> 00:33:56,799
before and after the curve box to

695
00:33:56,799 --> 00:33:58,519
determine it because

696
00:33:58,519 --> 00:34:02,440
we have to under the EPA EPA

697
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,120
requirement know if we have le service

698
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,599
or copper service or whatever it is so

699
00:34:08,599 --> 00:34:10,359
they are actually you know boring holes

700
00:34:10,359 --> 00:34:13,200
or using a vac truck on each side of the

701
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,679
curve box so they can determine what's

702
00:34:14,679 --> 00:34:17,639
in there so uh it will help us with that

703
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:19,079
and that's why some of this gr money is

704
00:34:19,079 --> 00:34:22,240
there and you know hopefully we will be

705
00:34:22,240 --> 00:34:24,480
successful G because an unknown is going

706
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,000
to be considered um Le if you under the

707
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,639
EPA or regulation if you don't know

708
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:33,389
they're going to consider it

709
00:34:33,399 --> 00:34:37,639
left Paul's outlined fairly well there

710
00:34:37,639 --> 00:34:39,480
again some of that data is coming in

711
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,119
from the survey we're also having

712
00:34:43,119 --> 00:34:46,760
plumbers when they're out doing regular

713
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,240
work on properties just do an

714
00:34:49,240 --> 00:34:50,760
observation of the pipe so they can

715
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,599
record it whether it's lead copper

716
00:34:53,599 --> 00:34:56,400
galvaniz

717
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,599
plastic the timing on this I want to

718
00:34:59,599 --> 00:35:01,760
move as quick as we can that money will

719
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,200
help us

720
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,480
better uh put in place the requirements

721
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,240
that the federal government's imposing

722
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:11,240
on so that we'll have the

723
00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:12,960
100%

724
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,040
completion the realities will never

725
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,880
quite get to the 100% you be in the '90s

726
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,640
there be some reason one way or another

727
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,320
you won't get in a

728
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,560
house those will be designated as

729
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,359
led what is

730
00:35:28,359 --> 00:35:33,200
uh important in this is the cost of this

731
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,150
is

732
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,920
huge if we can move ahead of this and

733
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,520
we're moving faster than most

734
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,960
communities now to get that survey in we

735
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,680
would be in better position than for

736
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,400
funding for the actual replacement of

737
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:54,880
the lead lines and that's why moving

738
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,079
this you think well two weeks doesn't

739
00:35:57,079 --> 00:35:58,319
make much difference difference here and

740
00:35:58,319 --> 00:36:00,560
there it's one of those things where

741
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,520
every little bit of incremental

742
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,839
difference in this could have an impact

743
00:36:05,839 --> 00:36:07,520
on the final project where we're going

744
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,000
to be applying for money to do the

745
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,160
actual Replacements and so that

746
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,920
appreciate the council's consideration

747
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,240
in that and then faster you can move

748
00:36:17,240 --> 00:36:21,280
that forward uh I think just sends the

749
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,160
message that we're serious about it it's

750
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,680
going to give us the resources to be

751
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,599
able to do it and be able to actually

752
00:36:26,599 --> 00:36:28,520
implement it and then qualifies for

753
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,160
additional funding going

754
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,079
forward what ask May would it be

755
00:36:35,079 --> 00:36:37,560
possible to upload this entire surve on

756
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,800
our website I know but people can access

757
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,839
it by creating a username password it's

758
00:36:43,839 --> 00:36:46,440
to the same survey it's in the format

759
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,319
the EPA requires so every city has the

760
00:36:48,319 --> 00:36:50,599
same one and I checked with the want

761
00:36:50,599 --> 00:36:51,839
today because it has to be out by

762
00:36:51,839 --> 00:36:54,720
tomorrow um he said it's on ours I

763
00:36:54,720 --> 00:36:56,079
didn't look at it but there's supposed

764
00:36:56,079 --> 00:36:59,359
to be a link there um and then that will

765
00:36:59,359 --> 00:37:01,920
grow because you know as we get the

766
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:06,319
surveys in or you know um people are

767
00:37:06,319 --> 00:37:07,520
also doing this they're calling us

768
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,240
because they're not sure so we have our

769
00:37:10,240 --> 00:37:11,640
water guys who are going out there

770
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,560
they're setting up schedules with home

771
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,319
owners to go in their basement and

772
00:37:15,319 --> 00:37:18,319
verify it and it gets put on the um on

773
00:37:18,319 --> 00:37:21,319
the database right now this is just one

774
00:37:21,319 --> 00:37:22,720
it's going to be one big database for

775
00:37:22,720 --> 00:37:24,480
every community in the country it's

776
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:25,480
they're all going to have the same

777
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,960
format you'll be able to you know plug

778
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,119
in an address and you'll be able to see

779
00:37:31,119 --> 00:37:32,920
whatever address that is in conect and

780
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,200
what that service is and then the next

781
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:40,079
round is going to be like the mayor said

782
00:37:40,079 --> 00:37:41,560
we're going to have to be replaced and

783
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,119
we don't own the services that's in the

784
00:37:43,119 --> 00:37:46,119
city po EPA doesn't really care who owns

785
00:37:46,119 --> 00:37:48,040
them um they're going to have to be

786
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,000
replaced and that's the essence of this

787
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,880
survey is to get this out so when the

788
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,839
new round of grant money is available we

789
00:37:55,839 --> 00:37:57,640
can apply as quickly as possible and we

790
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,560
have a most the most we could have on

791
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,359
the survey that we can possibly

792
00:38:02,359 --> 00:38:05,520
have so it's going to grow every day you

793
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,440
know it's you know that is going to have

794
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,680
to get put in we are working with a firm

795
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,319
120 water right now that you know is

796
00:38:12,319 --> 00:38:15,790
working with us

797
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,640
so goe sure okay so I was just thinking

798
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,079
that this might be another opportunity

799
00:38:21,079 --> 00:38:22,280
for us to kind of partner with the

800
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:23,640
school district right cuz we're

801
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,200
constantly you know getting uh giving

802
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:28,960
and getting information from um the

803
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,000
community I think that minimum sharing

804
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,520
the the link on the school district

805
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,119
survey um asking them to distribute it

806
00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:39,079
via their social media but I think that

807
00:38:39,079 --> 00:38:43,319
you can kind of um leverage some of the

808
00:38:43,319 --> 00:38:44,800
structures within the school district as

809
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,520
far as the community outreach goes um

810
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,000
especially doesn't seem like it's much

811
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:50,599
of a lift more than just making people

812
00:38:50,599 --> 00:38:52,599
aware and asking them to complete the

813
00:38:52,599 --> 00:38:54,800
survey from the school districts and I

814
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,040
think that that would be a good vehicle

815
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:57,800
to use

816
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,160
yeah I mean we're like I said know once

817
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,119
this is gone through we have a

818
00:39:02,119 --> 00:39:03,800
resolution everything we can work with

819
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,520
our consultant again and go to the next

820
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,680
step more

821
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:11,950
Outreach

822
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,319
and um to the mayor's point Thank You

823
00:39:14,319 --> 00:39:16,680
mayor um I'm thinking of newer

824
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,839
municipalities that might have a small

825
00:39:18,839 --> 00:39:21,640
mix of like Waterford where I came from

826
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,720
very small village older infrastructure

827
00:39:23,720 --> 00:39:26,200
but then tons of new construction so

828
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:27,440
everyone knows what their new

829
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,079
construction is and they're going to be

830
00:39:29,079 --> 00:39:31,200
getting their surveys in quicker uh not

831
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,960
knowing and the grant money is going to

832
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,119
go out so again it's important I think

833
00:39:36,119 --> 00:39:39,359
198 86 or 87 but after that that was the

834
00:39:39,359 --> 00:39:43,200
ban on L so if you you know you pre that

835
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,720
date you know that's where we really

836
00:39:45,720 --> 00:39:47,960
have to look to see if those people will

837
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,760
either do the UN home test s us the

838
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,359
results or you know call us and we'll go

839
00:39:52,359 --> 00:39:54,359
in and take take a look at it the house

840
00:39:54,359 --> 00:39:56,400
was built in the 90s we know lead was

841
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,560
already banned so um you know those

842
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,160
houses can be eliminated or put into the

843
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:06,079
Z as you know not let so okay so is the

844
00:40:06,079 --> 00:40:08,200
consultant on board already pardon me

845
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,280
you already have the consultant on

846
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,240
board yeah we because this had we we had

847
00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:16,280
um 120 water working with us and you

848
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,240
know now the grant came out so now we

849
00:40:18,240 --> 00:40:21,400
can do more because now we grant money

850
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,200
so we can now do another survey do more

851
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,560
mailings we can we said bring people in

852
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,480
the help because the water department

853
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,760
stuff can't we you know we we have seven

854
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,240
guys we can't go go the door we we just

855
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:36,920

856
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,480
grant will help us to you know reach out

857
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,280
to more people in different ways said

don't to door door and you know we want

862
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:53,400
to probably start in the neighborhoods

863
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,839
that we know are um affected because

864
00:40:56,839 --> 00:40:57,760
they're they

865
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:02,560
neighborhoods um and when you know where you have multiple family

866
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,319
homes like one two three units and you

867
00:41:04,319 --> 00:41:06,040
have children at the house sort of like

00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:13,230
a light paint um issue so light

869
00:41:13,240 --> 00:41:15,680
paint this is something that all of us

874
00:41:23,359 --> 00:41:25,319
neighborhood association there meting

875
00:41:25,319 --> 00:41:28,000

three so far I did Mana I did Stockade I

882
00:41:48,839 --> 00:41:55,520
did um North End uh and G um B un forun

883
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:56,839

884
00:41:56,839 --> 00:41:57,839
Thursday

885
00:41:57,839 --> 00:42:00,319
and at G so

886
00:42:00,319 --> 00:42:04,190
I spread a

887
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,319
little would you consider doing a press

888
00:42:06,319 --> 00:42:09,119
release out or have you done

889
00:42:09,119 --> 00:42:12,640
yeah we can do one from the council to

890
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:13,880
typ of thing where it's not just one

891
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,720
event it's like every day you got to do

892
00:42:16,720 --> 00:42:18,800
something to raise the awareness get

893
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,760
people to fill it out Mr Farley

894
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,400
suggestion of school

895
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,400
district I think kids a lot of times buy

896
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,200
into this quicker than the parents and

897
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:30,640
they may be able to motivate their

898
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,359
parents to look at the pipes and see

899
00:42:33,359 --> 00:42:35,000
what it is where the kids in fact can

900
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,440
buest

901
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,760
parents help them

902
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,040
complete good test is a magnet the good

903
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,960
magnet won't stick

904
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,240
to could be a really good homework

905
00:42:45,240 --> 00:42:48,440
assignment maget stick to copper the

906
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,280
magnet SS to Copper it won't stick to at

907
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,440
all I know won stick to I think you

908
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,880
stick for C that's the big test and I I

00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,720
have some things that one point water

910
00:42:56,720 --> 00:42:57,760
has already

911
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,559
given us to you know they' mailed their

912

online to log in I can access that

965
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,750
specific code from my

966
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,359
property

967
00:45:39,359 --> 00:45:42,359

the survey to 120 water or phis or call

972
00:45:54,240 --> 00:45:57,640

974
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,720

977
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:11,040

00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,440
can look at that and you'll know

980
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,960
Services coer POS no I I was more driven

981
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,640
towards um the survey online you can

982
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,119
complete the survey by creating a

983
00:46:25,119 --> 00:46:27,640
username password and direct to your

984
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,200
information with a code so that way you

985
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,200
are specific to what we asking for

986
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,119
there's a there's a

987
00:46:34,119 --> 00:46:40,880
yeah the QR code on the postcard went to

988
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,880
the website which allowed you to put it

989
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,440
in so when you're going to the

990
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,839
website on the city site you don't put

991
00:46:48,839 --> 00:46:52,240
in QR code you just put in your address

992
00:46:52,240 --> 00:46:54,240
the QR code is going to it's going to go

993
00:46:54,240 --> 00:46:55,559
the information you put in through the

994
00:46:55,559 --> 00:46:57,599
QR code is going to go to 12 water

995
00:46:57,599 --> 00:46:58,839
because they're the ones who developed

996
00:46:58,839 --> 00:47:01,240
everything for us and they all enter the

997
00:47:01,240 --> 00:47:05,280
data um into the survey and then um yeah

998
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,240
you know and then you can look at the

999
00:47:07,240 --> 00:47:10,280
survey but the QR code doesn't directly

1000
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,510
have you input into

1001
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,400
the go ahead please is there a way for

1002
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,880
someone to see whether in fact they

1003
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,160
already did the survey um you know if

1004
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,559
they don't remember doing yeah there'll

1005
00:47:22,559 --> 00:47:25,119
be there'll be some lag because men you

1006
00:47:25,119 --> 00:47:27,520
know it's not like somebody sitting 12

1007
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,359
water

1008
00:47:29,359 --> 00:47:33,400
and one put it

1009
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,680
in of work

1010
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,520
process it's going to take um good

1011
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,520
example I've tried to get

1012
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:45,079
into 17 properties um for another

1013
00:47:45,079 --> 00:47:47,640
project we're doing and it's been months

1014
00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:50,119
and I still can't get into for they

1015
00:47:50,119 --> 00:47:51,480
don't want to let

1016
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,160
me do you suggest we mailed them I

1017
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,280
mailed mine but I was talking with Phil

1018
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:57,839
she said just to drop them off is there

1019
00:47:57,839 --> 00:47:59,599
a preference people have dropped them

1020
00:47:59,599 --> 00:48:02,599
off to us people have mailed them one

1021
00:48:02,599 --> 00:48:04,400
thing I wor about you

1022
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,480
know could you come because people

1023
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:07,920
complain that they hear somebody in the

1024
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:09,640
background talking and they don't know

1025
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:10,680
who it

1026
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,240
is a lot of people are botom in in fact

1027
00:48:13,240 --> 00:48:15,880
one gentleman brought probably about six

1028
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,599
or seven of them in you know have

1029
00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:20,160
apartment buildings um which is nice cuz

1030
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,119
then we get them um the thing with

1031
00:48:22,119 --> 00:48:24,520
mailing them

1032
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,559
um sometimes the mail just doesn't get

1033
00:48:26,559 --> 00:48:27,559
to it

1034
00:48:27,559 --> 00:48:30,480
um and sometimes the mail um didn't get

1035
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,440
out we you know gave them you know a a

1036
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,040
list from assessment of all the

1037
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:37,480
properties where things have to be

1038
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,079
mailed and you know even a few people

1039
00:48:40,079 --> 00:48:41,680
within the water department never

1040
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:43,839
received them but their names were on

1041
00:48:43,839 --> 00:48:46,720
the list but you know sometimes you know

1042
00:48:46,720 --> 00:48:48,559
things do get lost in the mail

1043
00:48:48,559 --> 00:48:51,160
unfortunately so that's why you know

1044
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,480
we'll do another repeat mailing because

1045
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,240
it's you don't know if somebody just

1046
00:48:56,240 --> 00:49:01,150
didn't get it

1047
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:02,520
I think the next step we probably put

1048
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,880
something in you know in the media paper

1049
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:08,599
some other places um like I said we are

1050
00:49:08,599 --> 00:49:10,960
scheduling appointments through staff

1051
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,040
within the water department to go out

1052
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:14,440
and they've even gone to a couple

1053
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,119
properties um when people have come home

1054
00:49:16,119 --> 00:49:19,000
from work because people to work at 8:00

1055
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,079
sometimes they have come home and some

1056
00:49:20,079 --> 00:49:21,720
my water staff had just gone over to

1057
00:49:21,720 --> 00:49:28,430
verify it you know 4:30 5:00

1058
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:30,359
since since there are consideration to

1059
00:49:30,359 --> 00:49:32,559
do another mailing me would you consider

1060
00:49:32,559 --> 00:49:34,760
um doing a letter from your office to

1061
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:36,200
can highlight the importance yeah we're

1062
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,960
looking all these suggestions than

1063
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,400
willing to do it direct mailing from

1064
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:44,079
your office to highlight the importance

1065
00:49:44,079 --> 00:49:46,040
and why they should complete it it's not

1066
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,880
like you receive it to just leave it

1067
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:53,750
there and is there indate for the

1068
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:57,440
survey EPA would like to have an end

1069
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,240
I think reality is you know it's going

1070
00:50:00,240 --> 00:50:05,000
to take you know a lot of a while to get

1071
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,839
through I'm just thinking people are

1072
00:50:06,839 --> 00:50:07,920
starting to do things around the

1073
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,960
holidays and so there'll be places where

1074
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:11,960
a lot of people will come and be GA and

1075
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,880
that might be an opportunity I just

1076
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,119
that's why I want to know if there's an

1077
00:50:15,119 --> 00:50:17,200
ending we're going to keep doing it

1078
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,240
until we know we've got you know the

1079
00:50:19,240 --> 00:50:21,880
mayor said hopefully in a 90 pertile of

1080
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,839
the you know the properties completed

1081
00:50:23,839 --> 00:50:27,240
and um hopefully by then um

1082
00:50:27,240 --> 00:50:28,960
when we're done with that there will be

1083
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,160
some opportunities to apply for some

1084
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,040
grant money to actually do The

1085
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:35,880
Replacements the service line

1086
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:37,720
replacement because we know that's going

1087
00:50:37,720 --> 00:50:39,960
to be next the surveys is only going to

1088
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:43,440
lead to you know

1089
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,599
Replacements go ahead please I'm sure

1090
00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:47,760
you code right because you have to pull

1091
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,359
or permit the so you know what

1092
00:50:50,359 --> 00:50:51,920
properties maybe have been done over the

1093
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,400
past we looked we have old index cards

1094
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,559
that we've tried to find up in the AR

1095
00:50:57,559 --> 00:51:00,720
you know um some of my staff down is

1096
00:51:00,720 --> 00:51:03,200
very good um you know permit process has

1097
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,880
gotten better and like the mayor said

1098
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,480
when plumbers go in now to pull a permit

1099
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,599
um they're checking for us because

1100
00:51:10,599 --> 00:51:12,599
they're going to the house normally

1101
00:51:12,599 --> 00:51:14,720
they're already you know residents

1102
00:51:14,720 --> 00:51:15,680
already let them in because they're

1103
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,359
going to do some Plumbing work and it's

1104
00:51:17,359 --> 00:51:18,720
just really looking at the place coming

1105
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:20,839
through the wall it's

1106
00:51:20,839 --> 00:51:25,280
just it's CER for good and does so the

1107
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,200
mail do they go to the Property Owners

1108
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,640
or the property itself because to the

1109
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:35,520
property owner the um owner of

1110
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,440
record because they send it just to the

1111
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,119
yeah that I some tenants are just going

1112
00:51:41,119 --> 00:51:44,240
to they're going the list that we got

1113
00:51:44,240 --> 00:51:47,760
from Molly is the actual where tax be to

1114
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:49,720
and some do are going to end up in um

1115
00:51:49,720 --> 00:51:51,920
you know ESC because some people don't

1116
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,160
oh so you know

1117
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,839
we we're hoping we can we get there

1118
00:51:57,839 --> 00:51:59,200
um I have a question now about the

1119
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,040
resolution that that um been put forward

1120
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:03,799
it says that the agreement agreement

1121
00:52:03,799 --> 00:52:10,230
with under there um the last

1122
00:52:10,240 --> 00:52:13,319
there's um so the last therefore be

1123
00:52:13,319 --> 00:52:15,960
resolved it says there's a agreement

1124
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:19,880
with cha so um is that's the company

1125
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:21,480
that would also be trying to getting

1126
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:23,480
people to go door to door or is that

1127
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,319
something that CH works for a

1128
00:52:25,319 --> 00:52:30,559
subcontractor um 120 water okay so they

1129
00:52:30,559 --> 00:52:32,520
would be the ones yes we would contract

1130
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:35,359
with cha to to recruit people to go door

1131
00:52:35,359 --> 00:52:37,319
too they would do everything they would

1132
00:52:37,319 --> 00:52:39,160
work with 120 water and they would

1133
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,440
recruit with people um to go door to

1134
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,960
door CH is the engineering firm that has

1135
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,839
done most of our work so they're the

1136
00:52:48,839 --> 00:52:53,599
lead on this and they would work with us

1137
00:52:53,599 --> 00:52:55,640
and some of us for all say it's coming

1138
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,640
in slower than we'd like it's the

1139
00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,240
reality what every communities in we'll

1140
00:53:01,240 --> 00:53:03,880
still learn from that you know are there

1141
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:05,200
you know some neighborhoods where we

1142
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,680
have more information other

1143
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,280
neighborhoods where we don't so from

1144
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:10,880
that and just our discussion here

1145
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:12,480
hopefully we'll get a little press

1146
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,359
coverage and you know so where do we

1147
00:53:15,359 --> 00:53:18,880
have to concentrate our efforts to again

1148
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,760
get that data in place and have it in an

1149
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,280
accurate manner so I'm really familiar

1150
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,760
with um cha obviously but I was

1151
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,280
wondering is there an opportunity I'm

1152
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:29,880
always thinking there an opportunity for

1153
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,799
people who are uh maybe uner commun who

1154
00:53:33,799 --> 00:53:35,680
go right work within their community and

1155
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,400
have an opportunity to be able to get

1156
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:42,520
this pum for however long it is and so

1157
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:44,559
for us to be able to have that input as

1158
00:53:44,559 --> 00:53:46,960
opposed to Cha may have a form that they

1159
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,200
normally use and they go to people so

1160
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,960
how can we maybe um have the opportunity

1161
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,720
to to recruit people from the community

1162
00:53:55,720 --> 00:53:58,920
I was thinking deputize and Mr Farley's

1163
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,920
students he identifies

1164
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:09,309
move we might do some adults as

1165
00:54:09,319 --> 00:54:11,720
well but seriously I think

1166
00:54:11,720 --> 00:54:12,920
[Music]

1167
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,520
that to be effective that's definitely

1168
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:20,670
something we have to look

1169
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,240
at normally with these grants are Force

1170
00:54:23,240 --> 00:54:24,920
accounts too so if you want to utilize

1171
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,880
your own staff um you can utilize that

1172
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:30,359
reimburse yourselves through the grant

1173
00:54:30,359 --> 00:54:32,320
too they're they're called Force

1174
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:33,480
[Music]

1175
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,400
account so these grants so if you know

1176
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,839
if you wanted

1177
00:54:37,839 --> 00:54:40,040
to we had some people that wanted to go

1178
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:43,440
out go to door too um we could get first

1179
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,839
city staff yes oh those are those are

1180
00:54:45,839 --> 00:54:47,839
the force accounts there is a form in

1181
00:54:47,839 --> 00:54:50,400
part of the grants that called Force

1182
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:54,839
accounts it's just it's there want use

1183
00:54:54,839 --> 00:54:57,400
it sounds like

1184
00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,040
jobs program president almost sounds

1185
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,839
like you could might be a jobs program

1186
00:55:03,839 --> 00:55:06,359
in there some or something for I think

1187
00:55:06,359 --> 00:55:08,920
there people people might want to do it

1188
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,240
so but I think we should present the

1189
00:55:11,240 --> 00:55:19,180
opportunity

1190
00:55:19,190 --> 00:55:39,190
[Applause]

1191
00:55:39,200 --> 00:56:06,470

1192
00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,520

1193
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,079

it had to

1205
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,480

is the resolution for the Seeker which

1219
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,200
is the actual acceptance as a resolution

1220
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,640
of the grant this is so that they don't

1221
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:41,400
if you don't respond by a certain date

1222
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:42,359

1223
00:58:42,359 --> 00:58:43,280
to somebody

1224
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,119

00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:48,069
finance thing so we all have to U

1241
00:59:48,079 --> 00:59:51,079

1242
00:59:51,079 --> 00:59:53,200
