1
00:05:04,590 --> 00:05:05,630
Okay, thank you.

2
00:05:28,130 --> 00:05:30,070
August 20th.

3
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:42,720
Just black, the name is America, and it's a republic for which it stands when we need to

4
00:05:45,830 --> 00:05:46,710
just roll.

5
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:54,370
I don't know when it's skip right to public comment, and I want to practice it by

6
00:05:55,220 --> 00:06:08,040
stating that I did receive some correspondence, which is part of the director's report later on

7
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:24,380
I think I shared with you all the CC, you know, Sandra might have included it in your packet, and I invited her to come to the meeting, and I'm glad she's here.

8
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,200
So she's here during a couple of comments to address her concerns.

9
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:29,000
I think about the new library out.

10
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,680
You have the floor.

11
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:38,680
I want to prop us everything I say that I love this line, but I've always loved

12
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,000
line for it.

13
00:06:40,740 --> 00:06:47,860
We've lived here, 42 years, raised our children here, and we've used it from the time

14
00:06:47,860 --> 00:06:49,520
they were babies.

15
00:06:50,140 --> 00:06:53,540
They still come back and use as my grants anyway.

16
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,020
It's out of love.

17
00:06:57,260 --> 00:07:06,470
Over the years, there's always been talk about adding powers, and when the additional

18
00:07:06,470 --> 00:07:11,250
Saturday hours, I don't know how many years it goes to a three o'clock.

19
00:07:11,250 --> 00:07:13,110
We were the light,

20
00:07:17,130 --> 00:07:24,230
so I grabbed in one report like, okay, the library, this afternoon.

21
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:33,460
Time is not used enough.

22
00:07:36,220 --> 00:07:59,340
I just kept in the past few weeks, come into the library at different times of the day, and there are often times when it's pretty empty, and that's as a citizen who pays taxes that's fine with me, because the library that I love has never been operated on.

23
00:08:00,220 --> 00:08:07,680
statistics as far as bodies in the library, certainly keeping track of the circulation which

24
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,660
has always been great, I'm sure.

25
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,840
And programs are wonderful. I have no problem with adding

26
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:27,880
hours and adding programs. I've also taken an informal survey of friends, neighbors, people

27
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,520
who are retired like I am, others with small children,

28
00:08:32,140 --> 00:08:37,480
others' different stages, and almost all of them

29
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:42,940
have lamented the cutting of those apt new hours on Saturday.

30
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,540
Those who work during the week, like Saturday,

31
00:08:49,300 --> 00:08:53,780
time, I can come in, get a book, bring my kids in.

32
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,820
It doesn't mean staying there for hours,

33
00:08:56,820 --> 00:09:04,380
but just the convenience of having weekends as well as evening.

34
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:11,840
And I know the pandemic did a number on libraries and everything else.

35
00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:16,120
And I know the numbers even when it first opened up.

36
00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:20,460
People weren't coming the way they used to, but now it's built back up.

37
00:09:20,460 --> 00:09:29,640
And I just, I read something else where those hours were borrowed from Saturday.

38
00:09:30,540 --> 00:09:36,480
I ask you to return them and ask them, don't cut Tuesday.

39
00:09:37,140 --> 00:09:45,700
I'm not trying to take away, but I, I don't know, I'm not a bunch of person, but when

40
00:09:45,700 --> 00:09:52,660
building is open on a certain day. You're still happy to provide heat, air conditioning, whatever.

41
00:09:54,200 --> 00:10:03,120
And yes, additional staff would be needed for those two hours. But that cannot be a huge budget item.

42
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:17,520
I know library staff is not over the page, so that's my shield, and it's out of love, I just want more library.

43
00:10:18,260 --> 00:10:19,540
Not for it.

44
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:20,400
So thank you.

45
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:21,440
Thank you.

46
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,060
It's Henry if you want to address something.

47
00:10:25,060 --> 00:10:26,320
I know you've been free.

48
00:10:27,100 --> 00:10:27,380
Okay.

49
00:10:27,540 --> 00:10:28,060
I'm passing.

50
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,060
It was nice to meet you and we had a great chat, and I hope we continue to have some chats.

51
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,220
And I completely understand where you're coming from.

52
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,300
I don't like the idea of taking away hours on a weekend.

53
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:48,240
One of the issues with Saturday is when we are open for six hours, like we were in the past,

54
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,720
the staff isn't entitled to a half out of break.

55
00:10:52,420 --> 00:10:57,920
And so I am very committed that there should always be few people in the building, three staff members

56
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:02,740
in the building because of the size, the two floors, the fact that we don't have lines

57
00:11:02,740 --> 00:11:08,740
of sight. So when we were open for the six hours, there would be times in the middle where

58
00:11:08,740 --> 00:11:13,620
we only have two people and I'm not comfortable with that. So in effect, I would have to bring

59
00:11:13,620 --> 00:11:18,660
on a fourth person to work on the Saturday so that when we staggered the lunch breaks,

60
00:11:18,980 --> 00:11:23,840
there would still be three people here. And I'm very hard-pressed to get three people here

61
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:30,760
to work a Saturday, never mind four people. So when I looked at the hours, I thought, if we

62
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:36,620
go to four hours on Saturday that alleviates the need for the half hour break and when looking

63
00:11:36,620 --> 00:11:42,440
at the morning versus the afternoon and looking at the door counter and general the mornings

64
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,480
are busier than the Saturday afternoons, so that's where I decided to take the two hours from.

65
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:54,580
Again, I regret that because in theory it should be a wonderful time for families to come in

66
00:11:54,580 --> 00:11:59,580
when they're not able to turn the week. I would like to give this some time to see how things

67
00:11:59,580 --> 00:12:15,280
settle out, it's something we could revisit, but if we do, I think we'll have to have four people scheduled to work on a Saturday, and I'm not sure how I would make that happen practically speaking.

68
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:27,120
So it's not really an issue with cost. I think one of the things that I've heard is it's getting people that are on staff that want to work on these centers and they have to rotate as well.

69
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,280
So I don't have to work on this Saturday.

70
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:31,240
And is that, is that, for it to say,

71
00:12:31,420 --> 00:12:35,980
is that kind of how it's been a problem to get people

72
00:12:35,980 --> 00:12:37,060
where excited air is not?

73
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,440
Yes, and frequently, if they are scheduled,

74
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,060
they will want it off something,

75
00:12:42,060 --> 00:12:45,000
will come off some family thing, understandably,

76
00:12:45,220 --> 00:12:47,540
so then I have to scrambling to try to get somebody else

77
00:12:47,540 --> 00:12:50,660
to work that day, who wasn't planning to work that day.

78
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,020
So that is an issue.

79
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:55,800
And I've recently added more people

80
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,740
to the Saturday rotation and it is still an issue.

81
00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:01,760
So it's just something that I struggle with

82
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,520
and so that's why I propose the four hours.

83
00:13:05,340 --> 00:13:07,120
But again, we can meet this in the future.

84
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,320
If I get staff more amenable to working on Saturday,

85
00:13:11,420 --> 00:13:13,680
but for now, I think it's the best that you can do.

86
00:13:15,740 --> 00:13:18,140
And I'm just thinking maybe it's possible

87
00:13:18,140 --> 00:13:21,900
with the winter hours and people not being outside

88
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:24,640
as much, maybe it will be more amenable to what

89
00:13:26,220 --> 00:13:31,580
I don't know, I don't know, but it is hard to get people to come inside.

90
00:13:31,980 --> 00:13:41,440
I didn't chat with a couple of happy members who were kind of lamented the Saturday going.

91
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:47,700
So it was in the formal, I don't know everybody, but...

92
00:13:47,700 --> 00:13:52,340
I think we all feel like it's not a great thing to take away too much.

93
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,980
But practically speaking, I'd like to talk with those two staff members that we haven't

94
00:13:58,980 --> 00:13:59,360
seen.

95
00:13:59,700 --> 00:14:03,600
Do they last sign up for more Saturdays if it's different?

96
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:10,980
I think personally how we feel versus how do we make this work with the staff that we have?

97
00:14:12,140 --> 00:14:16,720
We consider some time in the future if the budget allows hiring a part-time person that

98
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,440
dedicated Saturday for some time.

99
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:26,530
We do have some people that just work once a month or so, right?

100
00:14:26,750 --> 00:14:28,930
So, just to cover the Saturdays, yeah.

101
00:14:28,930 --> 00:14:31,890
Yeah, other than Saturdays, but they just kind of put in one day, right?

102
00:14:32,310 --> 00:14:33,590
And so,

103
00:14:33,750 --> 00:14:36,070
no one's yet to be able to do it for a whole week.

104
00:14:36,150 --> 00:14:37,350
Maybe Saturday night first.

105
00:14:37,450 --> 00:14:40,250
I like that idea that we find someone that is just like the Saturday

106
00:14:41,250 --> 00:14:42,890
person who are two of those people.

107
00:14:43,610 --> 00:14:46,290
And then, you know, and then maybe those folks would be like, okay,

108
00:14:46,290 --> 00:14:51,210
I don't have to work Saturday and then I'm going to work other other hours, maybe a couple

109
00:14:51,210 --> 00:14:51,430
hours.

110
00:14:51,850 --> 00:14:55,890
I don't like the kind of just one day I understand it because it's what you just want to

111
00:14:55,890 --> 00:14:56,170
tear up.

112
00:14:56,270 --> 00:14:56,850
You're doing that.

113
00:14:56,850 --> 00:14:59,970
Everyone has different reasons, but I'd say like

114
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:29,900
Let's, you know, my opinion is what's going with the directors, new hours, see how they're working, and then, and then re-evaluate. And I, I told the other state, because I do, I'm one of this, you know, I get up late, I like to go to someplace that's like it's 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. and it's open. And I also like standard hours though, I want to know that when I go to certain stories open, right, it's going to be open, and it's properly staff. So, I think what we can do is, I suggest is kind of

115
00:15:29,900 --> 00:15:34,560
continue with this, you know, it works and if there's problems with it and there's, you know,

116
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:39,980
people are just, you know, really want those two hours or we look at, you know, putting them back in

117
00:15:39,980 --> 00:15:44,620
and then hiring the software. I think we could find the money. It's, I don't think, again, it's not

118
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:51,460
the money issue. It's more of a organizational and staffing from what I, the way I've looked at it.

119
00:15:51,460 --> 00:15:56,880
Is that fair to say? Yes, it's not even a way of looking at it. It's the fact that she has sign up.

120
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:04,480
She calls people the same people that work those Saturdays that are the one person, one shift or two shift to mum.

121
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:10,640
They're not available the whole month of August, so it's summer and they're doing family things, and we do not.

122
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:16,420
No matter what people are saying about missing those guys, I don't know who they are, but they are not available.

123
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:24,340
So we've had director and assistant director come in and work, and those people are working some days and evenings too.

124
00:16:24,340 --> 00:16:35,620
So I mean, it's just, it is what it is and we've tried many, many ways to get people to commit to Saturn and it's so, I don't know what to say, it's a logistical thing.

125
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:41,080
And it's unsafe to have one person up, one person down, one person out in lunch.

126
00:16:41,620 --> 00:16:42,220
Can you think of it?

127
00:16:42,700 --> 00:16:43,280
Yeah, I agree.

128
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,460
You know, somebody has to go to the bathroom in here.

129
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:46,140
Oh, basically.

130
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:47,300
Yeah, the bill number.

131
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:47,500
The bill number.

132
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,240
You go to help somebody in the staffs and it's just, it's not like that.

133
00:16:53,200 --> 00:17:01,060
We'll keep trying, even if you hire somebody just to do Saturday's period.

134
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,040
When that person can't work a Saturday, who works?

135
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,900
Because I was in an ongoing problem since you came onboard in February and prior to that.

136
00:17:09,900 --> 00:17:14,520
We did have for a while someone who was basically working every Saturday and now they can't.

137
00:17:15,260 --> 00:17:18,040
That person can't.

138
00:17:20,180 --> 00:17:20,940
It's kind of safe.

139
00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:22,000
I think we read that.

140
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:22,460
You wait.

141
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,500
You can just see how it's working.

142
00:17:23,820 --> 00:17:25,500
Like what was it?

143
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:27,180
Do you want to set six months or?

144
00:17:30,300 --> 00:17:34,120
How about three months like we've been terrified by the fire?

145
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,080
When you get the right time, you get that.

146
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,100
And the fire is working now.

147
00:17:40,660 --> 00:17:40,900
Yeah.

148
00:17:40,980 --> 00:17:41,900
That's even better.

149
00:17:45,250 --> 00:17:45,850
I appreciate.

150
00:17:47,250 --> 00:17:48,210
I accept.

151
00:17:50,270 --> 00:17:50,490
No.

152
00:17:50,690 --> 00:17:51,830
And thank you for bringing it up.

153
00:17:51,830 --> 00:17:57,210
I think we should look at it, I don't know if we're going to change that in this meeting, I think we'll never understand.

154
00:17:57,750 --> 00:18:04,990
Well, we want to evaluate, and then I can tell you just from a trailer perspective, we should be able to staff if we have to.

155
00:18:05,110 --> 00:18:10,070
We can find that. It's it's it's finding the people and maybe that's something we can look at.

156
00:18:10,130 --> 00:18:16,030
And then we also need to see it. Again, you mentioned like there are counters on our doors, we've had counters.

157
00:18:16,030 --> 00:18:21,450
So we do see the moment of people that are coming in or the sap in the administration here does.

158
00:18:22,570 --> 00:18:27,430
So, and it's something we've done for a while, and I think that is helpful, but, you know,

159
00:18:27,650 --> 00:18:32,730
again, when I go to a market basket and they say we're closing in on PM and I'm the only

160
00:18:32,730 --> 00:18:38,110
one at the store, and it's E-45, I appreciate it being open, you know what I mean?

161
00:18:38,290 --> 00:18:42,210
So even though I'm the only one there, and they have a complete sap and everything like that,

162
00:18:42,370 --> 00:18:43,110
it's set hours.

163
00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:50,410
And that's what I do like about what we've done with this is you set hours, now we've got kind of standard hours that are a little more fixed.

164
00:18:52,670 --> 00:19:00,570
But I get that, so we'll say, look at it, you know.

165
00:19:01,210 --> 00:19:04,650
It might appear that we took hours from Saturday and put them on Tuesday.

166
00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:09,930
But we've had other people on the other end of the spectrum, clamoring for Tuesday night to be open.

167
00:19:09,930 --> 00:19:15,770
So it's not that we took out of the summerals and put them so that's what we're just one who's just open to our own.

168
00:19:16,070 --> 00:19:19,410
Yeah, that was, yeah, so that's a turn that I'd like to do.

169
00:19:19,730 --> 00:19:24,610
Open on Tuesday and have a nice good for people who want this always going to be somebody that wants something else.

170
00:19:25,390 --> 00:19:35,590
But right, the hour-wise, or what we cannot, or back when we were going to do the common, we had all our ideas for the common, we had some friends from the friends that wanted a wine bar.

171
00:19:35,590 --> 00:19:41,790
I would too I was like a one but I don't think all right or a cafe

172
00:19:43,370 --> 00:19:48,010
That would not the cafe. Yes, right. I

173
00:19:48,010 --> 00:19:49,710
When we resurrect that

174
00:19:49,710 --> 00:19:52,330
In Victor's time because he's getting another year

175
00:19:52,330 --> 00:19:58,390
We'll have some other great ideas for outside but we can welcome everybody's comments and well

176
00:19:58,390 --> 00:20:03,330
Revisit that when do you want to revisit that we can know I think we compromise I'm pretty much

177
00:20:08,610 --> 00:20:10,310
Thank you for listening.

178
00:20:11,170 --> 00:20:15,590
Can we just move without to the November 1st?

179
00:20:16,370 --> 00:20:16,750
That'd be okay.

180
00:20:17,170 --> 00:20:18,390
We're going to have a session meeting.

181
00:20:18,650 --> 00:20:19,750
Do you want to do it?

182
00:20:19,950 --> 00:20:20,970
Yeah, October meetings.

183
00:20:22,770 --> 00:20:22,870
Okay.

184
00:20:22,870 --> 00:20:23,230
All right.

185
00:20:23,450 --> 00:20:23,710
Keep it.

186
00:20:24,010 --> 00:20:25,510
I want to do this.

187
00:20:25,770 --> 00:20:29,210
We have an open full time vacancy right now.

188
00:20:29,850 --> 00:20:30,090
All right.

189
00:20:30,170 --> 00:20:32,430
I would like to be able to bring a person on board,

190
00:20:34,950 --> 00:20:38,410
I think that's where it's going.

191
00:20:40,630 --> 00:20:41,650
It's okay.

192
00:20:41,650 --> 00:20:43,610
Thank you very much.

193
00:20:43,890 --> 00:20:45,190
It's okay.

194
00:20:45,210 --> 00:20:45,490
Okay.

195
00:20:45,870 --> 00:20:46,610
Thank you very much.

196
00:20:47,010 --> 00:20:47,010
Thank

197
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:52,020
you.

198
00:20:52,020 --> 00:20:52,380
Thank you.

199
00:20:52,380 --> 00:20:52,900
Plannedness.

200
00:20:53,180 --> 00:20:54,020
For one minute.

201
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,740
I was right in your packet.

202
00:21:10,990 --> 00:21:11,590
We'll hit it.

203
00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:12,410
Me in a minute.

204
00:21:12,670 --> 00:21:14,590
All the way back to June 18.

205
00:21:16,190 --> 00:21:17,750
Public and non-public.

206
00:21:54,210 --> 00:21:56,270
No comments from me that I offer them.

207
00:22:06,750 --> 00:22:11,610
I just, my last name, spell drawing in a couple areas.

208
00:22:12,110 --> 00:22:12,510
That's okay.

209
00:22:12,870 --> 00:22:14,230
It's not a very bad night.

210
00:22:16,190 --> 00:22:17,670
It's, at all the times.

211
00:22:18,310 --> 00:22:21,190
People spell my name on the first day.

212
00:22:21,630 --> 00:22:23,690
I think the plan is double team.

213
00:22:23,690 --> 00:22:24,390
Double team.

214
00:22:24,390 --> 00:22:26,450
and I believe you're going to want to help.

215
00:22:30,660 --> 00:22:39,220
I'm going to edit this. I'm going to go with the public committee.

216
00:23:10,130 --> 00:23:21,170
I like to just take it to this more team. And then a lot, it's a place of the party. So it's finished not Italian, even though I am Italian.

217
00:23:32,870 --> 00:23:35,990
I don't see it, but if you find it that way.

218
00:23:36,150 --> 00:23:39,690
Oh, maybe if it's that, I looked at the ones that took it over.

219
00:23:40,130 --> 00:23:40,250
Yeah.

220
00:23:40,250 --> 00:23:41,490
Yeah, I want to correct it.

221
00:23:42,810 --> 00:23:44,050
It's started on the nose.

222
00:23:44,790 --> 00:23:45,330
But not public.

223
00:23:45,570 --> 00:23:46,010
I think.

224
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:49,260
The motion.

225
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:50,200
Sure.

226
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:57,040
Make your motion to accept the meetings as is, with the exception of correcting your drawing.

227
00:23:57,540 --> 00:23:57,720
Thank you.

228
00:23:58,420 --> 00:24:00,480
I'll second that.

229
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:01,700
On favour?

230
00:24:02,420 --> 00:24:02,500
Right.

231
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,520
To accept the couple of minutes.

232
00:24:06,900 --> 00:24:07,220
On favour?

233
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,700
No, public meeting.

234
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:11,900
You know, I see one of this.

235
00:24:18,420 --> 00:24:18,660
Okay.

236
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:19,200
One.

237
00:24:21,020 --> 00:24:21,860
Down under the roll.

238
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:22,980
On the net.

239
00:24:22,980 --> 00:24:23,120
Yeah.

240
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:23,800
Yeah.

241
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:25,320
Thank you.

242
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:25,320
I

243
00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:50,710
make another motion to accept the non-comboic meeting minutes both of them and I'll put the exception on the phone.

244
00:24:51,930 --> 00:24:56,190
I'll second up on favorite subject and a non-comboer.

245
00:25:00,130 --> 00:25:00,890
Okay.

246
00:25:03,030 --> 00:25:03,790
Okay.

247
00:25:06,460 --> 00:25:08,560
Director, do we have any cash donation?

248
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:15,560
We do, in June, we have a $100 donation from the Mathemara and Heart Families.

249
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:17,580
Okay.

250
00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:25,860
And in July, we have a donation from the Rye Arts Study Group, who has disbanded,

251
00:25:25,860 --> 00:25:34,500
and they donated to us their remaining funds, totaling $2,123 in 84 cents.

252
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:46,220
So we are working with some of the members of that group to bring art programming here at the library and to bring more art exhibits to the library.

253
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:54,620
So the thought is that that $2,000 could go towards a new hanging system, speakers in the future, things of that nature.

254
00:25:55,180 --> 00:25:56,520
Can you give me the name?

255
00:25:56,740 --> 00:25:59,180
So the June donation, not in there.

256
00:25:59,460 --> 00:26:00,800
And so in the back of the yard.

257
00:26:01,220 --> 00:26:02,580
And for this, on your report,

258
00:26:02,900 --> 00:26:04,240
I'm heart H-A-R-T.

259
00:26:04,700 --> 00:26:05,600
Thank you.

260
00:26:06,460 --> 00:26:07,300
Do you re-self, Bill?

261
00:26:07,540 --> 00:26:08,040
Thank you, though.

262
00:26:08,340 --> 00:26:08,560
I do.

263
00:26:10,460 --> 00:26:13,200
I don't know the right arts study group.

264
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,540
Is that just like a Chicago student?

265
00:26:15,780 --> 00:26:16,500
It's a big one.

266
00:26:16,660 --> 00:26:18,740
It's a bunch of artists from the C-Cos area.

267
00:26:19,060 --> 00:26:21,340
And they used to meet across the street at the church.

268
00:26:21,340 --> 00:26:27,580
And they were in existence for quite a long time, but I think they had issues with

269
00:26:28,380 --> 00:26:34,360
well just keeping up with membership and the expense of the meeting space and so they've

270
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:42,920
decided to disband and so we saw that as an opportunity to take over some of those features,

271
00:26:43,300 --> 00:26:49,620
some of those aspects that they provided so yeah in the correspondence those email from

272
00:26:49,620 --> 00:26:51,800
Ladies, we're good with that.

273
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,700
Okay, you're on show of financial reform.

274
00:26:57,120 --> 00:27:00,840
Looking at our actual and budgeted expenses and

275
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,440
conference, our operating income obviously is on target.

276
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,720
We'll see what it feels like we're going to put up.

277
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:09,220
Let's go there.

278
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:14,420
And then our expenses are, we're seven months in, obviously,

279
00:27:16,140 --> 00:27:16,640
with July.

280
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:26,220
And we're in good shape to budget, so with what we've budgeted, there's a couple areas that were high on and over budgeted.

281
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,080
I think we all understand that one's legal.

282
00:27:29,020 --> 00:27:31,720
The other one's building in maintenance.

283
00:27:33,180 --> 00:27:36,920
But all in all, I think we're a target.

284
00:27:37,380 --> 00:27:40,360
And so I know this was a Sandra's budget.

285
00:27:41,260 --> 00:27:46,040
But obviously, as we go forward, this is what we're going to start thinking about the next few weeks.

286
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:52,720
is getting ready for our budget for 2020-07.

287
00:27:53,660 --> 00:27:58,760
And on that note, I recently received word from the Select Board's Office that they have scheduled

288
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,380
the first work session for the budget.

289
00:28:01,820 --> 00:28:06,900
And there's a date and we have a time that the library is expected to appear.

290
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:07,980
Oh, can we have that?

291
00:28:08,020 --> 00:28:08,880
Yes, I did.

292
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:14,040
I can throw it the email, but it's October 27th.

293
00:28:15,140 --> 00:28:29,960
And it will be here in this room and then with all the apartments, but our time is 1215 on October 27th, and it's the joint work session of the select board and the budget committee.

294
00:28:30,860 --> 00:28:32,920
And we have like a 15 minute slot.

295
00:28:34,260 --> 00:28:34,460
Yeah.

296
00:28:34,980 --> 00:28:35,360
And that.

297
00:28:36,220 --> 00:28:37,320
15 minutes.

298
00:28:37,660 --> 00:28:38,440
That'll be 15 minutes.

299
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:38,760
15 minutes.

300
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:43,520
15 minutes.

301
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,480
for them and then they'll take that and then we'll do is

302
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,400
re-tune it and fine tune and we have another meeting for them, right?

303
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,580
So this, you know, what we want to have here is,

304
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,420
you know, there'll be some discrepancies in our project.

305
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:01,700
For example, legal, so we'll be have to explain that.

306
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:02,680
Some of our maintenance.

307
00:29:04,140 --> 00:29:07,800
And then, you know, part of this is what we might ask the town

308
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,560
for funds going in in 20, obviously that is part of it.

309
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,300
Sorry, but that is something that we want to be prepared for.

310
00:29:16,740 --> 00:29:22,020
One of the things that's related to that is our position with trusts, which we've been asked for.

311
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,260
So, Joanna and I couldn't make the meeting with the trustee as the trust funds that they had.

312
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:33,780
But I asked Gary to ask that group when they met to discuss, you know, and get together.

313
00:29:34,420 --> 00:29:39,900
what we have, all our trusts, what they know about on those of them. We don't know about

314
00:29:39,900 --> 00:29:45,800
maybe, right, and you get to settle me in for us to go through that with them. And that would be,

315
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,020
our quality, that would be our committee, that's how it would be, the views that are up

316
00:29:50,020 --> 00:29:55,040
Elizabeth and myself, and then we'll report back. But he was like, well, you should go to this meeting,

317
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,820
and we were trying to get to that meeting, so we're trying to get to that meeting.

318
00:29:57,820 --> 00:29:59,980
So, um...

319
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:29,980
And back to our actual versus budget in their expenses. I think we're doing well. I've been looking at everything I saw, even if it's small, the mouths and not a public comment. I think we're going to have none public today. I want to talk about one scenario that we had. And it's not anyone's fault. It's just, you know, I want to look at everything that's going through here. And then one of the things I just want to make sure we're doing and I know we're doing this a bit, but I think, you know, we're doing this a bit.

320
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:40,070
other areas we, in other boards in the I've been part of is, you know, we don't do this,

321
00:30:40,190 --> 00:30:46,170
like, let's get three vids, right? So I want to make sure we're kind of practicing that.

322
00:30:47,710 --> 00:30:52,670
And so I'll discuss how we, what I think we should do, and I know it's takes time, right?

323
00:30:53,730 --> 00:30:59,350
So, but I think we want to look at doing that a little bit more. The balance sheet.

324
00:31:00,770 --> 00:31:11,890
You mentioned that over budget on building facilities, is your mining, what is it a big thing that I don't sure if you are aware of what that is there?

325
00:31:13,550 --> 00:31:15,330
Right on building maintenance.

326
00:31:15,930 --> 00:31:24,230
So if you look at that, we've had really it's under 484, that's the 12,000 there.

327
00:31:24,230 --> 00:31:40,290
I'm sorry, wait up on that, that's it, we're at a 137% over there, so it's been, it's funny

328
00:31:40,290 --> 00:31:45,730
because I want to get the amount here,

329
00:31:49,890 --> 00:31:54,090
and what we think it was some of them, the violence from

330
00:31:54,090 --> 00:31:57,170
to enter on this where we're going a little over.

331
00:31:57,410 --> 00:32:00,650
I'm going to see additional war on some of these.

332
00:32:00,650 --> 00:32:04,450
I thought that was the goal and the refurbishment of the building.

333
00:32:04,910 --> 00:32:07,470
I had to make a number of service calls.

334
00:32:07,750 --> 00:32:10,230
Some of it's related to deferred maintenance.

335
00:32:11,930 --> 00:32:16,710
I hope in the future to get past the phase where we're sort of things are breaking and we're fixing.

336
00:32:17,030 --> 00:32:19,810
Hopefully at some point we get we're able to get a little ahead of things.

337
00:32:20,330 --> 00:32:23,930
But right now I think this budget reflects that we are having to be a bit reactive.

338
00:32:23,930 --> 00:32:27,570
as things come up and try to address them and get them squared away.

339
00:32:27,870 --> 00:32:31,590
We've also spent more, I think, on landscaping and snow removal,

340
00:32:31,970 --> 00:32:34,690
those kinds of things that has gone up in price.

341
00:32:35,890 --> 00:32:39,670
And part of it is related to, I think, again, a big portion of it.

342
00:32:39,950 --> 00:32:44,890
It's not in here, but they each back, right? So it was Adam on.

343
00:32:44,890 --> 00:32:50,810
What was Adam on? There was something that, again, I don't know if I want to talk about it in public,

344
00:32:50,810 --> 00:32:53,810
but we'll talk a little bit in voice that we have there.

345
00:32:53,810 --> 00:32:54,470
Thank you for coming.

346
00:32:55,150 --> 00:32:57,970
Yeah, I mean, you can see that the landscaping in snow, you know,

347
00:32:58,070 --> 00:32:59,490
looks, fences are significant.

348
00:33:00,370 --> 00:33:03,170
And then when you add, you know, the service calls us things break.

349
00:33:03,970 --> 00:33:04,810
That would they?

350
00:33:04,810 --> 00:33:05,490
Would they happen?

351
00:33:05,730 --> 00:33:09,890
But to do it at zero because they were captured in a different line.

352
00:33:09,890 --> 00:33:11,270
I didn't have the previous years or something.

353
00:33:11,890 --> 00:33:12,770
Do I remind you something?

354
00:33:13,190 --> 00:33:17,350
I'm not exactly sure, but it seems like the larger category will have

355
00:33:17,350 --> 00:33:20,190
the budgeted amount and then the items falling under it.

356
00:33:20,190 --> 00:33:25,610
are just expected to sort of, it might be nice in the future to have more of a granular breakdowns

357
00:33:25,610 --> 00:33:34,790
that we can gain. Yeah, I would like to talk to you about the balance sheet. I didn't have

358
00:33:34,790 --> 00:33:40,210
some questions on this and this is really me and data data data data that I get together and

359
00:33:40,210 --> 00:33:45,550
just saying okay in general I'm comfortable with where we're at with the balance sheet just some

360
00:33:45,550 --> 00:33:50,170
of the accounts with partners we need to just make sure his numbers that are in

361
00:33:50,170 --> 00:33:52,290
QuickBooks are a match to that.

362
00:33:53,230 --> 00:33:57,210
And I became part of a still to get access.

363
00:33:58,990 --> 00:33:59,730
And it sounds funny.

364
00:34:00,250 --> 00:34:03,050
I'll go there and I get the amounts.

365
00:34:03,250 --> 00:34:04,710
And I get our what we have.

366
00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:07,990
For example, yesterday I moved some money into our debit card

367
00:34:07,990 --> 00:34:09,330
in this mirror at $43.

368
00:34:11,230 --> 00:34:13,290
So we're getting it really close there.

369
00:34:13,590 --> 00:34:15,710
So I got that set up.

370
00:34:15,710 --> 00:34:21,550
And then bomb line is our accounts are where they should be.

371
00:34:21,550 --> 00:34:23,310
It's just where we're bucketing these.

372
00:34:23,770 --> 00:34:27,470
And I want to just make sure E&I are in the same page on these accounts.

373
00:34:27,510 --> 00:34:31,110
Do you have access to the debit card style?

374
00:34:31,110 --> 00:34:31,790
No, no, I don't.

375
00:34:32,250 --> 00:34:34,870
And that's one of the part of getting the partners pass.

376
00:34:34,870 --> 00:34:36,410
So E&I will see the statement.

377
00:34:36,670 --> 00:34:39,990
Yeah, and it's funny, because I was able to, like, three months ago.

378
00:34:40,250 --> 00:34:41,610
And then I've been locked out.

379
00:34:41,810 --> 00:34:44,130
And that's like, it's just infuriating and then like,

380
00:34:44,130 --> 00:34:51,070
And I'm not playing them at all, it's more yesterday, I think I had to get to another meeting and I was in there and they were closing in.

381
00:34:51,130 --> 00:34:53,050
I didn't have an email to reset that.

382
00:34:53,150 --> 00:34:54,450
Yeah, working with me.

383
00:34:54,930 --> 00:34:59,870
And then they said, we sent it to you yesterday because I asked for it three days and three days ago.

384
00:35:00,510 --> 00:35:01,370
I didn't see it.

385
00:35:01,990 --> 00:35:06,450
But another one expired, or I tried, it just didn't work, and it was like a two day wait.

386
00:35:06,650 --> 00:35:11,710
So anyhow, I will get up that square way and my plan is to be here.

387
00:35:11,710 --> 00:35:17,070
I don't know what I'm saying on Saturday until I think they're open at noon.

388
00:35:17,270 --> 00:35:17,850
They don't know.

389
00:35:18,030 --> 00:35:18,510
They're closing.

390
00:35:18,910 --> 00:35:19,950
That's on Saturdays.

391
00:35:20,070 --> 00:35:22,270
Anyhow, that's it.

392
00:35:22,270 --> 00:35:25,350
On the financial report, I think we're in good shape.

393
00:35:25,630 --> 00:35:27,170
Um, you know, and one of the other is,

394
00:35:27,370 --> 00:35:30,190
Well, we'll talk about some of these things in public, so.

395
00:35:30,250 --> 00:35:30,350
Okay.

396
00:35:31,050 --> 00:35:32,390
Sorry, can you remind me of it?

397
00:35:33,530 --> 00:35:34,630
David is our bookkeeper.

398
00:35:34,630 --> 00:35:35,490
And the last thing.

399
00:35:36,150 --> 00:35:36,810
David's last name.

400
00:35:37,490 --> 00:35:37,970
I'm not sure.

401
00:35:38,930 --> 00:35:39,370
I'm sorry.

402
00:35:39,370 --> 00:35:39,790
I'm sorry.

403
00:35:40,650 --> 00:35:41,770
For a sample.

404
00:35:41,830 --> 00:35:44,250
No, thank you.

405
00:35:44,270 --> 00:35:46,330
Thank you.

406
00:35:46,510 --> 00:35:46,530
Thank you.

407
00:35:46,530 --> 00:35:46,990
My turn.

408
00:35:47,130 --> 00:35:47,710
Yes, please.

409
00:35:49,650 --> 00:35:53,170
I'm curious about some of the entries here.

410
00:35:53,630 --> 00:35:56,130
But it may be just the way that it's assembled.

411
00:35:57,630 --> 00:35:58,750
I don't fully understand.

412
00:35:59,630 --> 00:36:01,790
But for example, under four,

413
00:36:02,930 --> 00:36:05,050
eighty four building maintenance.

414
00:36:06,170 --> 00:36:08,930
One of the items is Mawn.

415
00:36:08,930 --> 00:36:20,190
I presume that's, yep, cuttings, that's fast, sorry, it's annoying the lawn, it's

416
00:36:20,190 --> 00:36:28,030
turning, it's cutting, we're just past control on that, we just haven't made just

417
00:36:28,030 --> 00:36:39,380
out of the air, we're just looking at the number, the $5,500 item is budget for the

418
00:36:39,380 --> 00:36:52,450
the budget for the year total is 25,500 and for all the items as well. So here's the budget and that's overall.

419
00:36:53,130 --> 00:36:53,510
That's overall.

420
00:36:55,970 --> 00:36:56,110
Yes.

421
00:36:56,110 --> 00:36:56,130
Yes.

422
00:36:56,850 --> 00:36:59,910
Well, we're all it's 12,000.

423
00:37:00,830 --> 00:37:01,050
Yeah.

424
00:37:03,230 --> 00:37:06,030
That includes no remote and service call.

425
00:37:06,330 --> 00:37:06,450
Yes.

426
00:37:06,530 --> 00:37:06,770
I'm kidding.

427
00:37:07,270 --> 00:37:09,650
I just want to look at the line.

428
00:37:09,650 --> 00:37:17,080
Adam, of God, how much you have the same vendor?

429
00:37:18,580 --> 00:37:20,640
We said the only people who are as well as the one.

430
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,060
Oh, okay.

431
00:37:25,180 --> 00:37:27,940
And at this point, how much of that?

432
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,740
Overall budget has been expended.

433
00:37:37,140 --> 00:37:47,180
We've gone over on that overall budget. So we're at 17,000. We had budget at 12,000. Obviously, we budgeted too low there.

434
00:37:47,460 --> 00:37:57,800
So the prior director, the temporary directors at, but this together, budgeted 12,500 for this particular area, and we were clearly way too low.

435
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:11,540
And we have to go back and look at prior years what we did, but I think it was something along the way that the system was set up, right, which is quick books, taking that information we were going through a migration at the time as well.

436
00:38:12,220 --> 00:38:22,720
So something tells me that these didn't get correctly categorized, and then what happened is, we took all the data that we have, we have to get the budget between, you know, before that meeting.

437
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:27,740
And 12th house would look like a good number, and it was all clearly too, too well.

438
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:37,600
So we're over budget on, you know, and you're right, it's the same person that does a lot.

439
00:38:38,020 --> 00:38:39,420
And it's no more bulldozer, right?

440
00:38:39,820 --> 00:38:45,000
We did look at another contractor who quoted us twice as much as our current vendor.

441
00:38:45,420 --> 00:38:48,420
Yeah, and I'm not questioning the vendor at all on that.

442
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:50,320
I think it's just more or less hard.

443
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,280
We just need to get things categorized.

444
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:59,320
And this where David's been really helpful in getting all this identified and put into the

445
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,280
prey prepockets and accounting codes.

446
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:09,400
And we will see that continue to go up because we had some long overdue expenses and landscaping

447
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:14,800
that weren't addressed such as the ballards for safety around the circle that had been

448
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,880
knocked down by plows over the years and were tumbled down the hill into the neighbor's

449
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:29,240
that we just had to hire a little green-peng one to use their excavator and bring back up and put back in the ground.

450
00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:33,360
That comes out of which that will come out of law of the lawn.

451
00:39:33,780 --> 00:39:35,620
So that net saw was a thousand dollars.

452
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,360
And that's not there yet either.

453
00:39:37,740 --> 00:39:38,880
That was just...

454
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:41,040
That wasn't right.

455
00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:43,080
Because we haven't had that yet.

456
00:39:43,420 --> 00:39:44,880
And then we also heard...

457
00:39:46,180 --> 00:39:49,860
We've seen some of the tree removal stuff that we thought...

458
00:39:49,860 --> 00:39:57,700
be free is we have a boat for that it's looking like we have to pay that directly yeah yeah so

459
00:39:57,700 --> 00:40:01,960
that'll be something that gets us over budget there I think we're going to be well from

460
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:11,940
the overhead on that particular area so it's been the truth come under this line item or

461
00:40:11,940 --> 00:40:14,920
on the source. At this point, it would be so much more.

462
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:16,480
Right, actually, I believe.

463
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,420
We don't have less, I don't know.

464
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:26,140
If I would put it on under building maintenance when we're taking the

465
00:40:26,140 --> 00:40:26,680
areas down.

466
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:33,560
These are great questions. I think as we kind of go through this and we get ready for the

467
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:37,780
budget for next year, we identify that and especially using that.

468
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,040
The categories we have and the ones we've done, right?

469
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:46,640
is a bunch. But I think we'll find our tuning in. It's going to be what we're going to do.

470
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:51,220
And I'll work with you, Sandra, and Elizabeth, to make sure we have that.

471
00:40:51,260 --> 00:40:55,280
So going forward, more data on each one of these is going to make it much easier.

472
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,400
Yeah, it's a forecast for us, yeah.

473
00:40:58,460 --> 00:41:04,800
And just out of curiosity, the law on the maintenance of snow, that's all going to come under facilities.

474
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:17,280
Well, it comes to things like overhang and, you know, repairing the ballards or what's going on in the circle in time.

475
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:30,580
I think I will want advice and expertise for some items, but if it's something more routine and below a certain dollar amount, I don't necessarily bring that to facilities, especially if there's not like a wider impact.

476
00:41:30,580 --> 00:41:41,020
Okay, but certainly something with the trees, whether, you know, pruning or whatever, I do bring to the facilities because it's important in terms of the whole big picture of our property.

477
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:54,720
All right, good, is there any timeline for tree removal that, I don't know that I knew about, I have heard this before, I'm just curious, is this like a 2026 project or something that's just in discussion, because it will be, I think,

478
00:41:54,720 --> 00:42:01,860
We have significant tree removal before you came on board, big trees that we've taken out by crying.

479
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:02,960
We have some dead wood.

480
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,000
All right, let's do it.

481
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:05,920
We are going to go into not public.

482
00:42:06,140 --> 00:42:07,380
I would like to talk about the tree.

483
00:42:07,620 --> 00:42:08,740
I don't know what to talk about.

484
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,900
Some of the trees stop and they answer your question in that.

485
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:11,260
Perfect.

486
00:42:11,460 --> 00:42:14,120
Because it involves talking about offenders.

487
00:42:14,900 --> 00:42:15,560
Yeah, exactly.

488
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:16,660
Thank you.

489
00:42:18,100 --> 00:42:18,340
All right.

490
00:42:18,660 --> 00:42:18,700
All right.

491
00:42:18,700 --> 00:42:19,920
What else do we know?

492
00:42:20,340 --> 00:42:22,040
And you go to the director.

493
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:29,340
I believe I like where I think we're going with this because this is the recent years

494
00:42:29,340 --> 00:42:37,700
things have become rather loose and loose and loosey I would say and so need to as good

495
00:42:37,700 --> 00:42:48,940
a job as we can to be very specific and very strong as well as columns here which takes

496
00:42:48,940 --> 00:43:01,060
to the earlier announcement that hearing, the first hearing of our real budget is in October

497
00:43:01,060 --> 00:43:01,900
2017.

498
00:43:04,260 --> 00:43:08,080
That's good and that's earlier than some recent years.

499
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,020
But still it's like two months from now, which is not at all.

500
00:43:12,020 --> 00:43:20,280
not a long time. So will we the trustees know what the proposed budget is before October

501
00:43:21,020 --> 00:43:26,200
27th. So will it be somewhat working sessions, the which the trustees are in. I don't think we're

502
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:31,940
that. I'm like some recent years where maybe on the afternoon of the date of submission,

503
00:43:33,380 --> 00:43:36,580
the trustees were the last to know what was submitted to the town.

504
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:45,260
I'm just a treasure and just want to say I want to say I'm not pointing a finger really

505
00:43:45,260 --> 00:43:48,500
but particularly not you, Joe.

506
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:56,120
So, the things need to be done in a more organized, pretty good solution.

507
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:06,560
So, we, you, Joe, or...

508
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:15,160
As a group, we'll see this before and discuss this before October 27th.

509
00:44:15,340 --> 00:44:19,340
Before the due date, we're not going to put the term paper under your group.

510
00:44:19,460 --> 00:44:20,380
We'll have a lot of them.

511
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:25,740
We'll have a meeting in September, towards the end of September, and that would be a good time for us.

512
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,420
We could have a small work session as part of our meeting and skip some of our regular.

513
00:44:30,420 --> 00:44:38,800
Yeah, I would to close that the finance committee gets together ahead of time with three of us and we

514
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:46,720
draft something that we then present to the entire board maybe as a special work session could be its own meeting or it could be part of the

515
00:44:46,720 --> 00:44:53,440
October meeting at the latest so that you all know what we are submitting to the talent.

516
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:59,880
I think yet exactly and what the whole idea here is to be able to any one of us, right?

517
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:14,580
Can go in and explain our budget to budget committee because that's what's happened in the past, right? So I've been in a situation where none of the other trustees could go in and explain the budget or stand for the budget.

518
00:45:14,580 --> 00:45:19,840
And so we all need to be able to sing from the same choir sheet, so it's big, and but in the end,

519
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:20,860
Sandra owns it, right?

520
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:27,220
Sandra's, this is Sandra's, we will give her input, but in the end, this is the director's

521
00:45:27,220 --> 00:45:33,020
budget, we are basically our guy to do it and that sort of stuff, but yeah, I agree with you.

522
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:39,440
And the key here is that if we can get to the atomic level of these items without making it

523
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:40,780
really burdensome, right?

524
00:45:41,720 --> 00:45:48,960
We can say, hey, look, on, you know, the snow removal, which we have, but just tree care.

525
00:45:49,300 --> 00:45:53,360
Here's how much we spent the last 10 years, and this is what we need to do, and this is what you need to allocate.

526
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,800
So essentially, at some point, you should just press a button and just say based on what we have.

527
00:45:58,980 --> 00:46:02,840
And I'm not saying this is AI, it should just spit out what you're proposed budget should be.

528
00:46:03,700 --> 00:46:06,020
In three years, you should be able to do that.

529
00:46:06,020 --> 00:46:10,880
you know, aren't people without any major issues, obviously things might change, they might

530
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:15,500
be doing expansion or something, but in that capacity, just a basic stuff, a running

531
00:46:15,500 --> 00:46:20,200
delivery, you'll just have that and be like, yep, here's how it works, and it shouldn't

532
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:21,360
be just kept with you, right?

533
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,620
It needs to be each trustee needs to know about it.

534
00:46:23,860 --> 00:46:28,420
And as far as I'm concerned, each, you know, you're, you're, you're, you're, you have

535
00:46:28,420 --> 00:46:30,980
staff left, you have full-time employees should know that as well.

536
00:46:31,580 --> 00:46:35,860
I mean, we are a public institution, right, we, we are, nothing is

537
00:46:35,860 --> 00:46:41,560
hide it here. So everyone that works for us should know it, right? Just like a public organization.

538
00:46:42,220 --> 00:46:47,480
Like, I was always shocked when people don't know what their sales are for their own corporation.

539
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:55,600
And so the process is going to be that the finance committee, which is U2 and Sandra Mettermite,

540
00:46:56,100 --> 00:47:04,860
and go over what the draft is going to be, and you will let us know which meeting you want us to discuss that out,

541
00:47:04,860 --> 00:47:06,260
at a regular board meeting.

542
00:47:06,260 --> 00:47:07,320
It could be a regular board meeting.

543
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,040
We'll just make a little out of 10, 20 minutes or so

544
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:11,620
to do that.

545
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,320
Because should be enough for half an hour.

546
00:47:14,340 --> 00:47:15,640
And hopefully we'll be ready.

547
00:47:16,020 --> 00:47:19,240
If not, maybe September, we can take a peek at that.

548
00:47:19,500 --> 00:47:21,220
This time before then, I'm not here.

549
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:22,140
We need to be able to do that.

550
00:47:22,140 --> 00:47:24,140
Yeah, for one hour, one, I think we might have about that.

551
00:47:24,140 --> 00:47:27,020
Oh, meeting the voting through discussion as a budget.

552
00:47:29,250 --> 00:47:31,210
Well, you can let us know how much time you need,

553
00:47:31,290 --> 00:47:33,250
and if not, we can do that.

554
00:47:33,510 --> 00:47:34,490
I'm okay with it.

555
00:47:34,490 --> 00:47:39,810
on doing that. That's what's most important. I am forward into the budget or process.

556
00:47:40,750 --> 00:47:45,770
So you will be able to better judge them. I am how we hold those meetings.

557
00:47:46,070 --> 00:47:48,870
And just yeah, I'm not saying we must have such a meeting.

558
00:47:48,990 --> 00:47:56,330
I'm saying we should be as trustees, as individuals, trustees, we should be able to make ourselves

559
00:47:56,330 --> 00:47:59,890
available for meeting if it needs to be called to discuss the matter.

560
00:47:59,890 --> 00:48:01,490
So we'll wait to hear the difference.

561
00:48:01,490 --> 00:48:02,770
We'll wait to hear the difference.

562
00:48:02,990 --> 00:48:03,110
We'll wait to hear the difference.

563
00:48:03,310 --> 00:48:06,350
Committee, when they want to do that, and how much time they need.

564
00:48:07,010 --> 00:48:13,850
And one last point here, he used to be that, along with the budget, that would be presented

565
00:48:15,450 --> 00:48:22,130
and available for those hearings, as they're scheduled, and he'll be appearing with

566
00:48:22,130 --> 00:48:25,790
the select board as well as the budget committee, I believe.

567
00:48:27,370 --> 00:48:37,760
We have not, like, summarized considerations, you know, narrative, it would be presented along

568
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:47,200
with the number of each yield, which is an executive summary, yeah, absolutely, yes.

569
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:48,520
Great reminder, yeah.

570
00:48:48,660 --> 00:48:53,700
Because that's what we'll, we'll have to help all has to be, so the financials with us.

571
00:48:53,740 --> 00:48:56,060
Okay, so we'll leave with that.

572
00:48:56,060 --> 00:48:59,540
And we should be able to present it to the bunch of committee,

573
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,540
and they might just say, that's good enough.

574
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:03,720
And we'll have the backup materials

575
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:05,980
that they can look at, but most likely,

576
00:49:06,020 --> 00:49:07,960
because they're a group of one,

577
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:09,900
with a slackboard, they group.

578
00:49:09,980 --> 00:49:12,500
Someone's going to drill into specific numbers,

579
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,100
and that always happens.

580
00:49:14,340 --> 00:49:14,960
That's fine.

581
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:16,660
And then they're going to ask questions,

582
00:49:16,720 --> 00:49:17,900
like, well, what are you having your trust?

583
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,040
And that's where we fall in short in the past, right?

584
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:21,260
That's where we certainly need to be ready.

585
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,600
But the other question is, you know,

586
00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,660
how we, you know, we obviously don't want to dip into these

587
00:49:27,660 --> 00:49:31,300
trusts because we need to know that we know where these trusts are

588
00:49:31,300 --> 00:49:34,140
really allocated for is for if the roof is removed, you know,

589
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,420
even a group, right? So a lot of people are ready, you're ready to

590
00:49:37,420 --> 00:49:40,060
do this point. It's just one you should use these trust funds to

591
00:49:40,060 --> 00:49:44,740
do this instead of asking a tab. And I want to be for us to be able

592
00:49:44,740 --> 00:49:47,680
to, so well, that trust fund is not made for that. It's not made for

593
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:49,420
operating budget.

594
00:49:51,500 --> 00:49:57,600
So I'm moving on to facilities, so you already had your many meetings this week with Sandra.

595
00:49:58,700 --> 00:50:05,260
Are we going to just discuss the vendor issue in public today, or do you have something to do?

596
00:50:05,300 --> 00:50:08,880
I'm going to defer to these guys to go through the facility.

597
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:14,000
You know, Victor, you're the facilities guy as far as I'm concerned with community team.

598
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,800
He has the most knowledge about the facility, isn't it?

599
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:18,160
but we didn't have that meeting.

600
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:19,840
So.

601
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:21,160
Is there anything we need to discuss?

602
00:50:21,260 --> 00:50:22,500
Do we have anything to discuss?

603
00:50:22,500 --> 00:50:23,800
I think we're good.

604
00:50:24,100 --> 00:50:26,580
I think we're the facilities team was had a good meeting.

605
00:50:26,780 --> 00:50:28,700
We talked about our current.

606
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,020
We covered a lot of things.

607
00:50:31,020 --> 00:50:31,380
There we go.

608
00:50:31,660 --> 00:50:32,380
You talked about it.

609
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,120
Many issues are some more urgent than others.

610
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,300
Some active in some of the future.

611
00:50:42,100 --> 00:50:45,120
And so I'll be working on certain things along with

612
00:50:46,060 --> 00:50:55,350
colleagues, and I think we have anything specific that needs to be presented today and

613
00:50:55,350 --> 00:50:58,570
what's this somebody has some questions. Who's on the facility?

614
00:51:00,050 --> 00:51:02,470
Who is the facility's group?

615
00:51:02,790 --> 00:51:03,590
Is that just a little problem?

616
00:51:03,590 --> 00:51:04,730
I'm looking at you too.

617
00:51:05,110 --> 00:51:06,950
Yeah, I'm just looking at you.

618
00:51:07,210 --> 00:51:13,770
I think that was a meeting when she asked to divide us into like,

619
00:51:13,770 --> 00:51:16,850
Yeah, I don't know that we'd like mean to all other policies.

620
00:51:17,190 --> 00:51:17,770
I think so.

621
00:51:18,130 --> 00:51:20,450
We proposed some things I didn't know where that went.

622
00:51:20,590 --> 00:51:23,210
It was probably on us as policy governance people did.

623
00:51:23,450 --> 00:51:23,950
A little done that.

624
00:51:24,030 --> 00:51:25,490
And a little bit of this finance.

625
00:51:25,710 --> 00:51:29,550
Well, finance, we have the finance, the solidies of that.

626
00:51:29,790 --> 00:51:31,170
And then I don't know what the other ones did.

627
00:51:31,170 --> 00:51:31,730
Very, very.

628
00:51:32,110 --> 00:51:33,830
So we had there was a policy policy.

629
00:51:33,830 --> 00:51:36,010
All of these, yeah, Caitlin and I.

630
00:51:36,590 --> 00:51:39,570
And that should get started at some point,

631
00:51:40,170 --> 00:51:43,290
because a relief of the policies is overdue.

632
00:51:43,290 --> 00:51:45,130
I'm going to talk about that.

633
00:51:46,170 --> 00:51:46,350
Cool.

634
00:51:47,110 --> 00:51:47,570
Thank you.

635
00:51:48,430 --> 00:51:51,630
Well, whenever you want to set up time to get all in on that.

636
00:51:51,630 --> 00:51:53,130
I know there's a bunch of stuff.

637
00:51:53,630 --> 00:51:54,510
There's some things to address.

638
00:51:56,170 --> 00:51:56,550
All right.

639
00:51:57,050 --> 00:51:58,250
Are you good with those?

640
00:51:58,330 --> 00:51:58,450
Yep.

641
00:51:58,850 --> 00:51:58,890
Okay.

642
00:51:59,090 --> 00:51:59,250
Thank you.

643
00:51:59,550 --> 00:51:59,830
All right.

644
00:52:00,150 --> 00:52:01,130
Use services.

645
00:52:01,490 --> 00:52:02,930
And or either the report.

646
00:52:02,930 --> 00:52:07,230
We don't have a report per se, but we do have some numbers that,

647
00:52:07,230 --> 00:52:09,450
actually in Margaret compiled,

648
00:52:09,990 --> 00:52:13,050
reflecting the summer reading program attendance and usage.

649
00:52:13,050 --> 00:52:13,930
So

650
00:52:16,780 --> 00:52:22,200
I think the numbers look good, we have some great programs and some great turnout.

651
00:52:22,500 --> 00:52:25,140
They took in a couple of those and then a little neighbors.

652
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:26,480
Thank you.

653
00:52:27,020 --> 00:52:27,480
Thank you.

654
00:52:28,060 --> 00:52:29,700
It was good to see you.

655
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:54,180
And my favorite was the wildlife encounters. It was on the comment. And there were like five very interesting creatures and the educator held them and walked around through the audience. So you really got very close up with an alligator, for example. And my favorite was the armadillo.

656
00:52:54,180 --> 00:53:00,700
They're so cute. It was all like you know balled up, but then he set it on the ground and it's scooshin around

657
00:53:00,700 --> 00:53:03,280
And it was just like the cutest thing and the kids are like

658
00:53:03,940 --> 00:53:05,440
And so we're the adults

659
00:53:06,420 --> 00:53:10,200
Yeah, that was all right night. That was a very time. Yeah

660
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:10,800
Cute

661
00:53:11,260 --> 00:53:12,680
All right, what else do we have?

662
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,580
Do we have comfortable numbers for

663
00:53:17,940 --> 00:53:18,820
Last July

664
00:53:21,240 --> 00:53:24,620
I'm sure we do. I don't have them at the ready. Okay

665
00:53:24,620 --> 00:53:31,320
It would be nice to go into your real relationship, for the month or for the summer reeds summer, yeah.

666
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:38,040
You can see a pair of glasses where we know what summer was set to then.

667
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,380
Yes, the last summer was set to a ben record breaking.

668
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,840
So 10,000.

669
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,700
Yeah, so if I had to, then not to work.

670
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,480
If you're looking at this for this.

671
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:54,600
So we did not have a full-time staff member in the middle of this.

672
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,040
Yeah, I'm not looking for perfection.

673
00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:57,780
Yeah, right.

674
00:53:57,780 --> 00:53:58,800
I know that they're an expert.

675
00:53:59,020 --> 00:54:00,280
Some pumps that are over here.

676
00:54:00,620 --> 00:54:06,260
Yeah, but as we could use it, many acidics and put oats to explain.

677
00:54:07,700 --> 00:54:07,760
Yeah.

678
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,400
The abs and some numbers, or whatever.

679
00:54:10,780 --> 00:54:11,040
Okay.

680
00:54:11,260 --> 00:54:16,180
But we had stuff that everybody had done and they did take registration and they

681
00:54:16,180 --> 00:54:21,160
were checking visually, checking people out in very well, adding people that are very,

682
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:22,060
very good at it.

683
00:54:24,580 --> 00:54:27,200
summer, didn't you want to try it?

684
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:27,380
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

685
00:54:27,380 --> 00:54:29,460
I don't think I have an answer.

686
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:30,400
She's leaving.

687
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:32,690
Yeah, Saturday's her last day.

688
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:33,580
Yeah.

689
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:35,300
She's going to school.

690
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:36,800
Go on and college.

691
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:38,060
Okay.

692
00:54:38,180 --> 00:54:39,740
What else do you have for us?

693
00:54:40,700 --> 00:54:41,780
My report.

694
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:50,660
I started the report off with, and Victor, you were with me, as we were standing together

695
00:54:50,660 --> 00:54:51,180
chatting.

696
00:54:51,660 --> 00:54:55,560
A picture came up to us and was just raving about the program.

697
00:54:55,560 --> 00:55:09,180
So he was my witness and I was going to come by her generosity in telling us how great we

698
00:55:09,180 --> 00:55:17,600
the five public library is and has been for her and it's okay she's been coming for

699
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:24,920
many but she said notably she's noticed an uptick in our program offerings and how

700
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:30,060
excited she isn't particular and she's been signing up for a whole bunch so that's really

701
00:55:30,060 --> 00:55:36,200
gratifying that the public is noticing our efforts in this regard and I hope this

702
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:41,260
night detects message from a former employee who said that our programing is she's impressed

703
00:55:41,260 --> 00:55:48,300
with how robust our programing has become so that's nice to hear it from the former employee.

704
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:57,440
So I wanted to start it off with that and then we have our usual statistics for two months

705
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,980
since we didn't meet last month.

706
00:56:04,470 --> 00:56:10,330
It's a pretty good, but it would be great again to have this compared with this time last year.

707
00:56:11,270 --> 00:56:12,870
I'm sorry, I don't have that right now.

708
00:56:14,810 --> 00:56:19,730
But in general, July is looking a little busier for the most part over June.

709
00:56:20,770 --> 00:56:22,730
Is there a very good numbers?

710
00:56:22,850 --> 00:56:23,310
Let's see.

711
00:56:23,610 --> 00:56:26,570
How do we challenge newspaper use?

712
00:56:27,570 --> 00:56:30,770
That is, as some math is certainly,

713
00:56:31,250 --> 00:56:33,770
we have a clipboard at the desk,

714
00:56:33,910 --> 00:56:35,910
and if we notice somebody reading papers,

715
00:56:36,570 --> 00:56:37,930
we do a tip,

716
00:56:41,110 --> 00:56:43,070
without intruding on anyone's privacy.

717
00:56:44,590 --> 00:56:45,190
Hey, it's hearing.

718
00:56:45,470 --> 00:56:46,470
But, I don't know.

719
00:56:46,890 --> 00:56:47,470
Wait, I don't know.

720
00:56:47,470 --> 00:56:48,730
Wait, I don't know.

721
00:56:49,350 --> 00:56:52,690
Well, it's a way because certain things aren't counted otherwise.

722
00:56:53,070 --> 00:56:56,650
So our only new force is if we happen to observe and notice.

723
00:56:57,470 --> 00:57:07,830
How is our collection of what's the code things, the collection of things that people can borrow?

724
00:57:08,350 --> 00:57:10,130
I do think that needs a refresh.

725
00:57:10,450 --> 00:57:15,770
I would like to see a couple of items added that are unique in particular to the sea coast area.

726
00:57:15,770 --> 00:57:21,130
For example, things you could take to the beach, or like a metal protector, or something that would really

727
00:57:21,130 --> 00:57:31,250
Like people, you know, in our telescope, those out, our ghost hit had gone out recently, but I think it would be nice maybe to bring a little bit more attention to that by

728
00:57:31,730 --> 00:57:33,870
re-watching it with some more exciting things

729
00:57:33,870 --> 00:57:37,210
So if you have any ideas of what might be cool to borrow

730
00:57:38,630 --> 00:57:44,790
Other libraries have done cake pans, bicycles, sewing machines, any new name it anything

731
00:57:45,830 --> 00:57:49,010
and then we circulate it or we're responsible for the repair.

732
00:57:49,590 --> 00:57:50,730
That's it.

733
00:57:51,450 --> 00:57:55,130
The maintenance, the repair, checking the condition when it comes back.

734
00:57:55,450 --> 00:57:57,910
It is a more time intensive process.

735
00:57:58,710 --> 00:58:00,150
But again, it can be worth it.

736
00:58:00,190 --> 00:58:01,450
Do other libraries do that?

737
00:58:01,650 --> 00:58:04,030
Most libraries do have a library of things.

738
00:58:05,950 --> 00:58:09,770
And a lot of times it'll be unique to that library and to that town.

739
00:58:10,690 --> 00:58:13,030
So no two library things that are going to be like.

740
00:58:13,030 --> 00:58:17,830
Can you use inter-liberial loan for the library of things?

741
00:58:18,910 --> 00:58:21,470
Well, it depends, so that all of it would fit on a fan.

742
00:58:21,770 --> 00:58:22,830
That's true.

743
00:58:23,070 --> 00:58:24,510
It might be a little cumbersome.

744
00:58:24,630 --> 00:58:25,630
It might depend on the item.

745
00:58:25,950 --> 00:58:26,910
It's small enough, maybe.

746
00:58:27,950 --> 00:58:28,270
Let's go.

747
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:34,380
The meeting room.

748
00:58:34,420 --> 00:58:36,860
I'm surprised more people don't use our meeting room.

749
00:58:36,980 --> 00:58:40,720
When you say meeting room uses that upstairs and down, come by.

750
00:58:41,180 --> 00:58:42,660
It is up and down combined.

751
00:58:42,700 --> 00:58:43,920
And it's outside groups.

752
00:58:43,980 --> 00:58:45,960
That doesn't include us using the room.

753
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:50,720
But that might be a little slower than the summer group, maybe our meeting is often in the center.

754
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,980
That only groups, what do I see individuals in there?

755
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:57,360
And I've been upstairs when people come and say, can I just go in there?

756
00:58:58,340 --> 00:59:00,200
We don't really count that.

757
00:59:00,340 --> 00:59:00,900
We don't.

758
00:59:00,980 --> 00:59:02,360
Because they haven't placed a reservation.

759
00:59:02,980 --> 00:59:06,880
It's not in our tracking system for that.

760
00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:09,460
So casual use is not.

761
00:59:09,460 --> 00:59:10,220
It's not counted.

762
00:59:10,220 --> 00:59:18,000
My only question center was just if you had it, you're able to share anything around your timeline for the head of these services.

763
00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,540
It looked like there was, I would say, a solid.

764
00:59:22,020 --> 00:59:26,440
Yeah, we have applications, and I'm just curious about next steps or timeline for that.

765
00:59:26,540 --> 00:59:29,500
We have nine applicants so far.

766
00:59:29,500 --> 00:59:40,900
And I set, well, I'm not a deadline so much as September 1st is where I'd like to take a good look at it and perhaps schedule some interviews.

767
00:59:42,540 --> 00:59:58,360
If visitors will be open until filled, and my idea is to go through the applicants, the Dines so far and from their select, you know, at least three or four

768
00:59:58,360 --> 00:59:59,880
for our first interview.

769
01:00:00,990 --> 01:00:10,050
And my thought is the first interview will be myself and the Assistant Director. And then there would absolutely be a second interview.

770
01:00:10,630 --> 01:00:19,710
And that would be a longer interview that would involve some demonstration of their skill, whether it's a story time or some other kind of program. So we kind of see them in action.

771
01:00:20,350 --> 01:00:29,010
And at that point, I would like to open that up to a staff member from you services and a trustee as well to kind of weigh in on that.

772
01:00:29,010 --> 01:00:37,230
So I imagine we would have at least two maybe three second interviews and where is that posted right now?

773
01:00:37,410 --> 01:00:42,650
It's at Simmons. It's at the Simmons job line. It's at the New Hampshire State Library.

774
01:00:43,150 --> 01:00:50,210
Job line. The main job line because we do get some folks traveling from the sea coast of Maine.

775
01:00:50,430 --> 01:00:54,550
It's on our website. I think that's it.

776
01:00:54,550 --> 01:00:54,550
I

777
01:00:58,230 --> 01:00:59,430
also should go

778
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:05,960
now.

779
01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:10,240
If we had any applicants from other local libraries,

780
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:17,280
just one, just one in how many have you had

781
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:19,000
that are out of state?

782
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,760
Like a distance, anyone looking and relocating?

783
01:01:23,780 --> 01:01:27,440
Two would be looking to repotate on the top of my head.

784
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:32,220
Well, it's still early.

785
01:01:32,300 --> 01:01:33,200
When did that go?

786
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:35,480
August 11th?

787
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:36,260
August 11th.

788
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:37,040
All right.

789
01:01:40,780 --> 01:01:45,500
It's better than like the holidays, you know, I really would love to get this wrapped up

790
01:01:45,500 --> 01:01:47,240
before the holidays keep it in the shore.

791
01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:49,840
Oh,

792
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:57,280
I did want to update you about a staff bonding experience.

793
01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:02,960
You folks had a proof of budget for us to go on a bow and it turns out a number of

794
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:08,400
staff gets seasick, so we pivoted and we went candle pin bowling.

795
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:17,160
And it was absolutely delightful, there were nine of us, and it just so happens we saved considerable money.

796
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,840
But I can have another one.

797
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,320
First of all, but it was a lot of fun.

798
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:25,020
And no one heard it.

799
01:02:25,020 --> 01:02:27,100
Wait, did you go to Bolorin for dinner?

800
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:27,900
Yes, you did.

801
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:28,520
Yes, you did.

802
01:02:29,260 --> 01:02:31,840
And they bring food and drinks right to your lane.

803
01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:35,940
So if you had the bussles or a little one?

804
01:02:35,940 --> 01:02:38,820
It's camera pen is a small, it's a small, it's a small, yeah.

805
01:02:39,060 --> 01:02:42,680
If you win prizes, you can get a little tickets and go to the gym.

806
01:02:42,940 --> 01:02:44,100
No, just write it right.

807
01:02:46,790 --> 01:02:49,590
It's nice, so we're going to have fun, that's good.

808
01:02:49,990 --> 01:02:50,310
Sure, did.

809
01:02:51,750 --> 01:02:53,350
And then we've got some upcoming programs.

810
01:02:54,390 --> 01:02:57,950
A lot is going to be going on in September, so please check our calendar,

811
01:03:00,090 --> 01:03:00,830
come, let's find it

812
01:03:00,830 --> 01:03:01,630
about the UFOs.

813
01:03:02,250 --> 01:03:02,870
I'm excited now.

814
01:03:02,890 --> 01:03:03,470
We're done.

815
01:03:03,770 --> 01:03:04,210
We're done.

816
01:03:04,390 --> 01:03:05,250
Yeah, we're really excited.

817
01:03:06,010 --> 01:03:07,350
The rare book thing.

818
01:03:07,350 --> 01:03:13,110
You can bring in a couple items to have a verbal appraisal by a fellow from Ansel's Roadshow.

819
01:03:13,110 --> 01:03:14,290
That's very cool.

820
01:03:14,790 --> 01:03:17,950
And then we're starting a series on artificial intelligence.

821
01:03:18,610 --> 01:03:20,110
There will be at least three sessions.

822
01:03:20,930 --> 01:03:21,530
Cool, neat.

823
01:03:23,900 --> 01:03:26,100
So, and this is Scott, our system director.

824
01:03:26,340 --> 01:03:28,260
He's putting together these great events.

825
01:03:30,220 --> 01:03:37,120
Has this the AI series have the subsequent sessions been discovered?

826
01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:48,160
They are on our calendar. Yeah, and most important. They have to go to the calendar. You'll see them. Yeah, so what you can go into October

827
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:49,500
We'll see them.

828
01:03:49,740 --> 01:03:55,330
Yeah, and notably I am on vacation folks.

829
01:03:56,170 --> 01:03:57,210
Starting off.

830
01:03:57,410 --> 01:03:58,570
All the sudden to come up.

831
01:03:58,750 --> 01:03:58,870
Good night.

832
01:03:59,170 --> 01:04:00,570
Thank you.

833
01:04:03,030 --> 01:04:06,370
So starting next Tuesday, so I will be here on Monday

834
01:04:07,450 --> 01:04:13,250
Then I'll be gone Tuesday and coming back with following in the next acting in your absence.

835
01:04:14,630 --> 01:04:15,750
Scott, Scott.

836
01:04:16,070 --> 01:04:16,170
Yes.

837
01:04:16,530 --> 01:04:21,530
So I'll be reviewing with him the necessary things that need to happen, including payroll, most notably.

838
01:04:22,290 --> 01:04:24,890
So it will be in good hands.

839
01:04:25,710 --> 01:04:29,170
Would there be any intermediary things going on in your absence?

840
01:04:29,450 --> 01:04:29,690
No.

841
01:04:30,810 --> 01:04:33,910
No, that's why I said that deadline is sort of September 1st.

842
01:04:33,910 --> 01:04:39,030
So I want them all ready and waiting for me when I return and then I'm going to get right on that. Great.

843
01:04:39,310 --> 01:04:42,580
Yes. The perfect plan, right?

844
01:04:44,340 --> 01:04:45,580
You're doing anything fun?

845
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,920
It is a staycation and my father is visiting from far.

846
01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:49,800
Oh, nice.

847
01:04:50,500 --> 01:04:51,060
Great for me.

848
01:04:51,700 --> 01:04:53,420
Yep. I can't wait to show him around.

849
01:04:53,860 --> 01:04:58,940
And I will be swimming by the library as a spot check as well as showing my dad.

850
01:04:59,740 --> 01:05:00,500
You were right back to that.

851
01:05:00,500 --> 01:05:02,120
Take your dad to the water.

852
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:08,320
So we can put them in the work.

853
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:20,520
So we have some old business we talked loosely about, come here for some guidelines for our meetings.

854
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:32,100
We looked at a line that worked based on the towns, the river, the towns, and then I got some rewrites by DTC and Sam's.

855
01:05:32,100 --> 01:05:40,880
and I renewed those and decided we just thought some of the stuff did not sound like how we do business and our meetings.

856
01:05:42,020 --> 01:05:48,520
And meanwhile at the same time, Elizabeth offered to tackle them and come up with some

857
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:52,680
rewrites and comments that we discussed at the last meeting in June.

858
01:05:52,680 --> 01:06:01,880
So, I can see it because I figured it does out for us to look at and consider here, so there's

859
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:06,780
something that you want as well, legal, that's what we're going to do.

860
01:06:09,530 --> 01:06:13,170
So, how do you want to do this, everybody? Do you want to do this?

861
01:06:13,790 --> 01:06:20,410
Okay, I go start with Elizabeth, and then look at the legal advice to see if there's anything you want to add to Elizabeth?

862
01:06:21,170 --> 01:06:28,530
But I think the first thing we definitely want to add is the three-minute suggested time on that.

863
01:06:28,850 --> 01:06:28,970
Right.

864
01:06:29,450 --> 01:06:29,570
Yeah.

865
01:06:29,570 --> 01:06:30,530
It was first here.

866
01:06:33,700 --> 01:06:35,860
And also I want to note that Elizabeth's draft.

867
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,460
There is a little, there is something that continues on the back.

868
01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:40,400
Like my printer just goes a little funky.

869
01:06:40,780 --> 01:06:40,940
Yeah.

870
01:06:40,940 --> 01:06:43,320
That's probably the only one page that was working.

871
01:06:44,020 --> 01:06:44,740
So there is no one.

872
01:06:45,100 --> 01:06:49,420
And these were, um, I basically condensed what Joanne had written.

873
01:06:49,420 --> 01:06:53,940
So, um, and then check under advisement to comment.

874
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,820
So, what we talked about the last time you focused on the subject.

875
01:06:58,340 --> 01:07:02,060
And as you can see, as I was doing it, it was like, I think.

876
01:07:02,420 --> 01:07:02,900
Yeah, no.

877
01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:04,200
Thanks for a larger conversation.

878
01:07:04,380 --> 01:07:05,900
Great, great comments.

879
01:07:21,230 --> 01:07:24,810
I do like the idea of maybe calling these guidelines rather than rules.

880
01:07:25,250 --> 01:07:27,870
Isn't sound a little from the air, maybe?

881
01:07:28,110 --> 01:07:28,590
Guidance?

882
01:07:28,830 --> 01:07:29,690
I don't know, sure.

883
01:07:32,540 --> 01:07:33,180
And

884
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:48,900
then our goal to have these just as a internal document for us or to make this available to public.

885
01:07:49,260 --> 01:07:53,920
They can go on our website kind of in the about us with our policies.

886
01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:59,640
I mean, did they become a policy to be amended as needed?

887
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:04,300
Or if there are guidelines, that's up to you folks.

888
01:08:04,340 --> 01:08:05,400
I don't know.

889
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:06,300
Look at the website.

890
01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:11,980
If we're going to hold the public sort of accountable or ask them to follow these,

891
01:08:12,100 --> 01:08:15,040
we do have to make them available in some way or to them.

892
01:08:16,700 --> 01:08:18,040
And if you look at what's going on with guidelines,

893
01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:21,040
and then if we feel like we need to make...

894
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:22,480
Make it a possible policy.

895
01:08:24,180 --> 01:08:27,120
Well, if it's only a guideline that people

896
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:37,020
They don't really have to, oh, really, I think they like that one, they don't, yeah.

897
01:08:37,420 --> 01:08:39,740
But what they have to know is we are hearing with you.

898
01:08:39,820 --> 01:08:42,040
But that's what I want to hear on their time to summon else.

899
01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:45,860
It's just a guy line, that's what I'm just saying.

900
01:08:46,020 --> 01:08:47,120
Not saying it today.

901
01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:48,940
Yeah, and today's meeting.

902
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:58,240
But if it's a policy, I mean, people would buy it at a policy too, potentially, right?

903
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:05,180
Like if someone's going to be obstructionist or like sort of a grudges to be meaning their needs in our regardless of what we've made, did I think probably.

904
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,980
But I think it's so I'm not.

905
01:09:10,780 --> 01:09:11,120
I don't know.

906
01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:12,060
I'm going to go on for a little more.

907
01:09:12,780 --> 01:09:13,220
Yeah.

908
01:09:13,460 --> 01:09:15,140
I just like they're focusing it on the website.

909
01:09:15,340 --> 01:09:15,720
I think you're.

910
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:18,280
We want people to.

911
01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:18,480
Yeah.

912
01:09:18,700 --> 01:09:19,320
I'm just like a host.

913
01:09:19,420 --> 01:09:20,820
Even to say our guidelines.

914
01:09:21,580 --> 01:09:21,600
Yeah.

915
01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,900
I'll such that we don't allow humans that we all are.

916
01:09:25,380 --> 01:09:25,660
Yeah.

917
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:26,840
So please don't.

918
01:09:26,840 --> 01:09:31,720
We could also post them with future agendas or

919
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:35,920
My two comments, I think, from that. This is the legal one.

920
01:09:36,060 --> 01:09:37,520
That was DTC.

921
01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:41,980
I liked the, I mean, it's sort of obvious,

922
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,160
but the public comment will be a little bit as matters.

923
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:46,880
The curvy of the board, which I think,

924
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:48,820
you sort of sit here.

925
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:50,500
But I think that's like pretty explosive.

926
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,840
We don't necessarily need folks to come up here to

927
01:09:54,500 --> 01:10:02,860
right back to, or in my comment on other topics, I mean, say state that we're narrowly focused on the library.

928
01:10:04,980 --> 01:10:09,520
And I do like, I don't know, I do like public comment, not at least 30 minutes.

929
01:10:09,980 --> 01:10:13,240
I think that's, I mean, 30 minutes of our meeting.

930
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:16,960
Like as a guideline, that's what we still have on it.

931
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:17,020
Right.

932
01:10:17,020 --> 01:10:18,440
I know other than 40 people.

933
01:10:18,440 --> 01:10:25,440
and the force that had to adjust, but there's more and more demand for that and if we can adjust as we did but I think that's a good expectation for

934
01:10:26,480 --> 01:10:32,260
all of us around tears who have things to do. Also, libraries to run, we don't view 10 to hours of public time.

935
01:10:32,460 --> 01:10:33,340
It's been laid to end.

936
01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:34,240
In my opinion.

937
01:10:36,890 --> 01:10:38,590
So I think paper trying to read those two points.

938
01:10:43,650 --> 01:10:47,950
Sandra and I did not feel it was necessary to have a number four.

939
01:10:47,950 --> 01:10:49,650
Yeah, you don't like number four.

940
01:10:49,650 --> 01:10:54,890
of which one of the police go into

941
01:10:57,840 --> 01:10:59,380
the adding to the agenda.

942
01:11:00,820 --> 01:11:02,640
We've had anybody ask it.

943
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:06,520
Yeah, I think having public comment is your time.

944
01:11:08,020 --> 01:11:09,160
Go kind of go to those.

945
01:11:10,480 --> 01:11:17,000
We now select board and some other committees have gone as far as making people sign up to

946
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:18,280
public comment.

947
01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,660
But beginning otherwise you wait to be on the bottom.

948
01:11:20,660 --> 01:11:26,600
I don't, I'd just like to get the offer that the beginning of it will allow us time

949
01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:28,740
to entertain some of the people that we have come to come

950
01:11:34,180 --> 01:11:34,260
to come.

951
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:42,280
Number five on the legal document is the same, but I think the most better phrase than number

952
01:11:43,440 --> 01:11:46,420
three on the document that I share.

953
01:12:07,310 --> 01:12:12,630
Just to comment one of all is this that I agree with, I think, the number two there

954
01:12:12,630 --> 01:12:18,550
that if we're going to include a public comment may in some cases be suspended, we might

955
01:12:18,550 --> 01:12:23,370
give examples of what those situations might be, so that it's not, it doesn't, in the moment

956
01:12:23,370 --> 01:12:30,210
feel arbitrary or, you know, like, because we have a pressing meaning to legal counsel and

957
01:12:30,210 --> 01:12:34,130
like a very good reason to say we have to keep things brief today or, you know, other things

958
01:12:34,590 --> 01:12:39,530
that the room is reserved to work, you know, we could give a few examples or else I would

959
01:12:39,530 --> 01:12:42,410
say I wouldn't say it because it feels weird. Yeah, I think we should open it.

960
01:12:42,410 --> 01:12:48,370
Should I bring you looking at? Oh, I don't know. Right here. I think we should always offer the

961
01:12:48,370 --> 01:12:50,550
public an opportunity to come on.

962
01:12:57,450 --> 01:13:01,110
Yeah, I don't, I think people should have right

963
01:13:01,110 --> 01:13:08,890
So we had to suspend it until after meeting with the people before because of their schedule.

964
01:13:09,410 --> 01:13:15,890
Got it, so we could make a, I think if that was not be like a special occasion where we would make a motion.

965
01:13:17,010 --> 01:13:20,750
So just, but in the end, but in the end I don't think we should have it.

966
01:13:20,750 --> 01:13:24,110
I think it should be that anyone can speak at any time.

967
01:13:25,010 --> 01:13:27,130
I don't like being restricted.

968
01:13:27,130 --> 01:13:32,370
In that instance, it was actually the non-public

969
01:13:32,370 --> 01:13:34,110
was listed at the top as well.

970
01:13:34,270 --> 01:13:35,990
OK, so it was a non-public meal or not.

971
01:13:36,290 --> 01:13:37,550
It was a tragedy change.

972
01:13:37,890 --> 01:13:40,570
OK, so here's what I get that.

973
01:13:40,630 --> 01:13:42,750
But one of the things we see here is something arises.

974
01:13:43,170 --> 01:13:45,090
We still would give them right speak,

975
01:13:45,750 --> 01:13:47,690
but it might be, after we're done with legal.

976
01:13:47,950 --> 01:13:49,710
Right, so that's another challenge.

977
01:13:50,850 --> 01:13:53,510
So my whole thing is, I guess it was

978
01:13:53,510 --> 01:13:55,790
with you saying the same thing, is that any meeting

979
01:13:55,790 --> 01:13:58,110
we have, we're ready to gather the public that needs a raise.

980
01:13:58,110 --> 01:14:02,010
As conditions dictate, which is kind of true, right?

981
01:14:02,330 --> 01:14:04,070
I think we should include this.

982
01:14:05,750 --> 01:14:08,190
What do you also not say that it's suspended,

983
01:14:08,970 --> 01:14:11,070
but is there another way of saying that public comments?

984
01:14:11,430 --> 01:14:16,030
Well, I think it's, I think we just delete that phrase entirely.

985
01:14:17,110 --> 01:14:20,110
And just announce it as that should happen.

986
01:14:21,970 --> 01:14:24,490
I just think it should read public comments as well,

987
01:14:33,790 --> 01:14:38,870
What do you

988
01:14:42,580 --> 01:14:51,220
think about my first comment about our conduct to each other with that?

989
01:14:51,220 --> 01:14:59,400
I, I, you know, I think show in would watch that because I was going to be that first and I was like,

990
01:14:59,440 --> 01:14:59,980
you know, I wrote this.

991
01:15:00,210 --> 01:15:03,870
Do you want me to come in and say everything and disrupt the meeting?

992
01:15:03,870 --> 01:15:09,170
I didn't call to the National Assembly meeting, but I still write to the hearing.

993
01:15:12,910 --> 01:15:18,010
I don't know. I don't know. Honestly, I should have, you know, shouldn't have to be said, but.

994
01:15:18,050 --> 01:15:23,550
Exactly. I think we could leave it at a polite and respectful period. Okay.

995
01:15:23,550 --> 01:15:27,790
No, I don't know, but we go to, I don't know, sort of,

996
01:15:27,830 --> 01:15:33,370
I'm sure that it conjures up the feeling of, like, how we, these are our guidelines for, like, I think, keep it in our house.

997
01:15:33,590 --> 01:15:41,590
They won't say what committees, but there is one particular many in town where Melby says, boom, the chair runs a little show.

998
01:15:42,670 --> 01:15:45,130
And, you know, the in-steaks through that person.

999
01:15:46,910 --> 01:15:53,530
I'm not that person. I'm not that person. I'm fine.

1000
01:15:53,530 --> 01:15:55,950
I don't know, I don't take a comment, then.

1001
01:15:56,030 --> 01:15:57,030
Yeah, I don't like that.

1002
01:15:57,170 --> 01:15:57,890
It's like the answer, right?

1003
01:15:57,930 --> 01:15:59,410
Well, we're, you know, in the honesty,

1004
01:15:59,850 --> 01:16:02,090
the chair is just sets the agenda.

1005
01:16:02,090 --> 01:16:03,030
It sets the need.

1006
01:16:03,150 --> 01:16:07,050
And we're all technically have a quick look power on this board,

1007
01:16:07,210 --> 01:16:08,470
right, in the trespassing, in the trespassing.

1008
01:16:09,130 --> 01:16:12,410
The only difference, and this is the trouble with this,

1009
01:16:12,530 --> 01:16:15,650
though, so I do like that one of the comments in here.

1010
01:16:18,370 --> 01:16:19,130
Where was it?

1011
01:16:19,450 --> 01:16:21,770
Well, anyhow, one of the things that people make a mistake

1012
01:16:21,770 --> 01:16:28,090
about with these town and government boards, is a treat it like a corporation, right?

1013
01:16:28,090 --> 01:16:35,750
So in a corporate world, the chair is executive and CEO, and I didn't like some of that

1014
01:16:35,750 --> 01:16:39,070
in some of the boards I've been on, we've never had that problem in the end, but where

1015
01:16:39,070 --> 01:16:42,790
someone's like, well, I just, I made the decision because I'm the executive and I'm like,

1016
01:16:42,890 --> 01:16:43,550
you can't do that.

1017
01:16:43,830 --> 01:16:48,610
Like, yeah, I have to run it by all of us and the director, let's say, you haven't done

1018
01:16:48,610 --> 01:16:49,010
that.

1019
01:16:49,010 --> 01:16:50,750
But that's happened to Dr. Smith.

1020
01:16:51,170 --> 01:16:52,390
I mean, yeah, right.

1021
01:16:52,870 --> 01:16:52,970
Exactly.

1022
01:16:53,690 --> 01:16:54,250
Absolutely.

1023
01:16:54,430 --> 01:16:55,170
I'm absolutely.

1024
01:16:55,570 --> 01:16:59,410
And I think we are all in the same mind.

1025
01:16:59,690 --> 01:17:05,370
The director is, everyone's in equal here, and we all need to have people say blah, blah,

1026
01:17:05,870 --> 01:17:10,910
but the danger in having that structure and other groups is that's how it's.

1027
01:17:11,110 --> 01:17:13,310
And people are, you know, they've never done it.

1028
01:17:13,530 --> 01:17:17,950
Working with that government, and they just get elected this position, and they're scared to say anything.

1029
01:17:17,950 --> 01:17:22,870
And they watch, they learn based on the group that they were on, right?

1030
01:17:23,050 --> 01:17:26,870
And that's where we can break that, at least in our group of things.

1031
01:17:26,890 --> 01:17:28,630
So what's wrong with the first paragraph?

1032
01:17:29,410 --> 01:17:31,090
Because it is all correct.

1033
01:17:31,250 --> 01:17:34,170
Because even the last sentence saying,

1034
01:17:34,310 --> 01:17:38,850
no one has the authority to speak or the board is a full and less specifically

1035
01:17:38,850 --> 01:17:42,370
and officially designated by a majority of the board is true.

1036
01:17:42,550 --> 01:17:46,070
Just like we designate you to do all banking, right?

1037
01:17:47,350 --> 01:17:52,130
I don't see anything wrong in the first paragraph at all.

1038
01:17:52,510 --> 01:17:53,510
Is it the tone?

1039
01:17:54,090 --> 01:17:56,090
I mean, it is who we are and what we do.

1040
01:17:56,370 --> 01:17:57,710
We're talking about the second paragraph.

1041
01:17:57,710 --> 01:17:59,550
Yeah, the second sentence.

1042
01:17:59,990 --> 01:18:03,530
Well, I have a comment about, about how we treat each other.

1043
01:18:04,550 --> 01:18:05,710
Does that need to be then?

1044
01:18:05,790 --> 01:18:06,670
That's for a question.

1045
01:18:07,250 --> 01:18:10,330
That's not bad, but I thought you were talking about the first one.

1046
01:18:10,670 --> 01:18:11,910
That does not need to be.

1047
01:18:12,010 --> 01:18:15,090
And I kind of ideated from that talking about the first part of it,

1048
01:18:15,090 --> 01:18:17,550
which is I want to make sure that that first sentence

1049
01:18:17,550 --> 01:18:19,230
where the chair is almost made to,

1050
01:18:19,530 --> 01:18:21,390
it explains how the chair sets the agenda

1051
01:18:21,390 --> 01:18:23,050
and does assert stuff, but if you get away

1052
01:18:23,050 --> 01:18:23,750
from people's will.

1053
01:18:24,050 --> 01:18:26,910
Sure, and I have been yelled at before,

1054
01:18:27,250 --> 01:18:28,070
but not on camera.

1055
01:18:28,510 --> 01:18:30,650
All we sub-stairs for that camera, correct?

1056
01:18:30,730 --> 01:18:31,730
I've been yelled at.

1057
01:18:31,790 --> 01:18:33,090
You and I have been yelled at.

1058
01:18:33,090 --> 01:18:33,830
I've been yelled at.

1059
01:18:34,510 --> 01:18:36,350
I've been yelled at.

1060
01:18:36,370 --> 01:18:36,950
I've been yelled at.

1061
01:18:36,950 --> 01:18:37,730
I've been yelled at.

1062
01:18:38,410 --> 01:18:38,870
I've been yelled at.

1063
01:18:38,870 --> 01:18:41,670
So we should be able to remove, but I've

1064
01:18:41,670 --> 01:18:43,850
Okay, we're moving ahead if you guys are fine with that.

1065
01:18:44,010 --> 01:18:44,190
I'm fine.

1066
01:18:44,310 --> 01:18:45,110
What do you think, Doctor?

1067
01:18:45,850 --> 01:18:47,770
Are you an agreement of removing that?

1068
01:18:49,110 --> 01:18:49,630
Removing...

1069
01:18:49,630 --> 01:18:50,710
That's the behavior.

1070
01:18:51,370 --> 01:18:52,210
That's the thing.

1071
01:18:53,390 --> 01:18:55,210
You can't harass each other.

1072
01:18:55,790 --> 01:18:59,490
I think that should go without saying.

1073
01:18:59,650 --> 01:19:00,110
Exactly.

1074
01:19:01,930 --> 01:19:04,370
Keeping collating a spectacle or getting rid of the whole thing.

1075
01:19:04,370 --> 01:19:05,550
Getting rid of the whole thing.

1076
01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:10,000
I will...

1077
01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:11,740
Whatever we do today.

1078
01:19:11,740 --> 01:19:18,640
I'm going to land upon, I'll make the edits and then circulate it again, so we choose these two elements.

1079
01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:23,540
This is a lot more working on, but we're considering what gets sent to all such most of it.

1080
01:19:23,860 --> 01:19:24,840
We are not agreement.

1081
01:19:26,100 --> 01:19:32,440
That's one of this or the other way around, because it's come from some other place.

1082
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:35,860
That came from the ATC, but it's pretty much minutes.

1083
01:19:35,860 --> 01:19:43,860
what this one board uses, which I had already adopted when I first brought this to your attention.

1084
01:19:45,340 --> 01:19:46,960
We're just kind of bored of it.

1085
01:19:49,620 --> 01:19:53,800
It's been, and it's just got something that we don't really

1086
01:19:53,800 --> 01:20:01,370
remember. What do your thoughts on asking people to like, so they again, they haven't

1087
01:20:04,010 --> 01:20:16,630
I mean, we can ask, we can actually say shell, we can ask that people stay there named and address, you know.

1088
01:20:17,690 --> 01:20:24,830
Can't make people say where they live, but it is of interest to us to know where speaking to a taxpayer or somebody from our channel.

1089
01:20:24,830 --> 01:20:32,310
And I think the select board now goes as far as they've allowed time for

1090
01:20:32,310 --> 01:20:39,530
bright residents to speak in the vicinity of the non-residents after the fact, I have no way of knowing.

1091
01:20:40,930 --> 01:20:44,110
You really don't have to get their trust.

1092
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:49,980
So you're suggesting we add that some number three.

1093
01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:51,920
Sure, well, I think that needs to be correct.

1094
01:20:52,140 --> 01:20:53,200
I'm just going to speak to her.

1095
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:54,120
She'll speak to her name.

1096
01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:54,980
And in fifth.

1097
01:20:55,840 --> 01:20:56,360
Yeah.

1098
01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:58,660
I think it's a good, great, it's a guideline.

1099
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:00,200
Hopefully,

1100
01:21:05,530 --> 01:21:07,970
obviously, it's only three people here talking.

1101
01:21:08,410 --> 01:21:09,590
They say, oh, your nose.

1102
01:21:10,090 --> 01:21:10,650
And then talking.

1103
01:21:11,250 --> 01:21:11,810
Four, one.

1104
01:21:12,570 --> 01:21:13,270
It's not a problem.

1105
01:21:13,910 --> 01:21:15,590
I can never let this happen.

1106
01:21:17,590 --> 01:21:19,090
When you feel we should wait.

1107
01:21:19,290 --> 01:21:21,370
Let residents speak first.

1108
01:21:21,630 --> 01:21:22,910
We're not residents following.

1109
01:21:24,250 --> 01:21:25,350
Let's go, is it?

1110
01:21:25,590 --> 01:21:26,210
I don't know.

1111
01:21:26,550 --> 01:21:27,910
I don't think I did different things.

1112
01:21:28,070 --> 01:21:28,390
I don't know that.

1113
01:21:28,430 --> 01:21:29,330
Just let people speak.

1114
01:21:29,330 --> 01:21:34,590
Okay, so Elizabeth will reply is based on comments on this question.

1115
01:21:34,990 --> 01:21:36,550
Yeah, I mean, we certainly think that.

1116
01:21:36,710 --> 01:21:39,230
And then when we get to the final, it will be added to the website.

1117
01:21:39,730 --> 01:21:40,730
Yeah, I know you about us.

1118
01:21:42,630 --> 01:21:43,430
And there are main names.

1119
01:21:43,950 --> 01:21:47,550
I just, the first time to stand the amazing legal points there.

1120
01:21:48,790 --> 01:21:50,390
This, really the same thing.

1121
01:21:50,870 --> 01:21:52,250
Yeah, are an art draft.

1122
01:21:52,570 --> 01:21:54,530
It just ordered a little bit more extensively.

1123
01:21:54,530 --> 01:22:03,030
So, I mean, I could just swap or let it go for all the other words and seems like it's not good.

1124
01:22:04,990 --> 01:22:07,070
I mean, now, enough.

1125
01:22:07,630 --> 01:22:09,830
Okay, so let's go for revised.

1126
01:22:10,530 --> 01:22:10,730
Okay.

1127
01:22:11,790 --> 01:22:12,550
Well, look at him again.

1128
01:22:13,190 --> 01:22:13,950
Okay, question.

1129
01:22:15,590 --> 01:22:15,850
Sure.

1130
01:22:18,030 --> 01:22:20,230
Okay, I'm not sure which one I...

1131
01:22:20,230 --> 01:22:22,750
She's gonna revise these.

1132
01:22:23,050 --> 01:22:23,230
Okay.

1133
01:22:23,230 --> 01:22:25,550
on this number eight.

1134
01:22:25,570 --> 01:22:25,990
Yeah.

1135
01:22:30,850 --> 01:22:48,330
Speaking from a written document, I encourage to submit that document, which will be handed into the record, the record is the minutes, that become an attachment to the minutes, including the minutes.

1136
01:22:48,330 --> 01:22:49,550
And put it in the minute.

1137
01:22:51,170 --> 01:23:04,370
And if they speak from a written document, could they be speaking a dissertation and speaking a paragraph on a written dissertation?

1138
01:23:05,470 --> 01:23:06,150
Got you.

1139
01:23:06,610 --> 01:23:10,630
I do have one more thing to say you want.

1140
01:23:11,130 --> 01:23:13,370
If they're quoting something within a document,

1141
01:23:13,370 --> 01:23:17,450
the whole document gets submitted to be attached for the minutes, is that what you're asking?

1142
01:23:18,490 --> 01:23:19,370
Or maybe a little bit.

1143
01:23:19,610 --> 01:23:21,710
Or if they're just reading from their own notes.

1144
01:23:22,330 --> 01:23:24,510
So that was something that you had written.

1145
01:23:25,170 --> 01:23:27,890
And my first draft was that.

1146
01:23:27,890 --> 01:23:29,530
So I thought so.

1147
01:23:30,450 --> 01:23:34,330
My interpretation of the life, the correspondence,

1148
01:23:35,530 --> 01:23:38,590
is an hour packet today in our meeting.

1149
01:23:39,830 --> 01:23:41,610
The same, it would be a similar situation

1150
01:23:41,610 --> 01:23:49,830
and which if somebody was reading something during the public common and chose to.

1151
01:23:49,830 --> 01:23:53,870
Should we say May, May submit their documents to the end today?

1152
01:23:54,150 --> 01:23:57,150
Yeah, and then it goes into our five or four centuries.

1153
01:23:57,510 --> 01:23:58,910
As four respondents, almost.

1154
01:23:59,890 --> 01:24:00,590
I would say May.

1155
01:24:00,670 --> 01:24:00,950
I would say May.

1156
01:24:01,650 --> 01:24:02,870
It goes to a few minutes.

1157
01:24:03,050 --> 01:24:03,290
A few minutes?

1158
01:24:03,330 --> 01:24:03,630
A few minutes?

1159
01:24:04,610 --> 01:24:04,750
Yeah.

1160
01:24:05,350 --> 01:24:07,290
Usually you attach it to the meeting minutes.

1161
01:24:08,470 --> 01:24:09,790
So I think that's what we want to do.

1162
01:24:10,170 --> 01:24:10,230
Right?

1163
01:24:11,610 --> 01:24:21,290
So any speaker who's occurred, wondering what is, what is the level to which we want to raise or lower the importance of this document?

1164
01:24:22,010 --> 01:24:22,830
Is it on the right side?

1165
01:24:22,830 --> 01:24:23,330
It's not a lot.

1166
01:24:23,810 --> 01:24:24,450
It's not a lot.

1167
01:24:25,270 --> 01:24:26,690
I think it's just an attachment.

1168
01:24:28,110 --> 01:24:30,090
It could have just been attached to the minutes.

1169
01:24:30,230 --> 01:24:31,790
It's not part of our formal record.

1170
01:24:32,070 --> 01:24:33,130
But it's a reference.

1171
01:24:33,230 --> 01:24:34,930
Just in the same way that our minutes reference,

1172
01:24:35,090 --> 01:24:39,810
the directors report where these services report their attachments to our.

1173
01:24:39,810 --> 01:24:46,870
We're not literal attachments, you know, but I mean we're sort of like referring reference in the minutes.

1174
01:24:47,050 --> 01:24:48,370
So definitely we'll be right.

1175
01:24:50,410 --> 01:24:51,370
I'm not sure.

1176
01:24:51,710 --> 01:24:55,070
We have attachments officially to our minutes.

1177
01:24:55,690 --> 01:25:04,870
If we could, for example, to our minutes in a file, if we keep such a file.

1178
01:25:05,030 --> 01:25:05,410
We do.

1179
01:25:05,970 --> 01:25:06,210
We do.

1180
01:25:06,870 --> 01:25:07,050
Yep.

1181
01:25:07,710 --> 01:25:23,030
I'm reading your own aesthetic, include the agenda, the agenda minutes, every thing that we get for, say, as long as we, as part of the minutes?

1182
01:25:23,370 --> 01:25:23,490
No.

1183
01:25:24,370 --> 01:25:26,330
Part of the minutes for the attachments?

1184
01:25:27,070 --> 01:25:27,250
No.

1185
01:25:28,750 --> 01:25:36,410
That's not available to the public directly, but they could certainly be the final right to know to see all the attachments

1186
01:25:36,410 --> 01:25:45,770
that came in our packet to us, including anything that Susan Smith wanted us to attach to that.

1187
01:25:48,970 --> 01:25:56,470
And that same phrase will be entered into the record is reiterating it in point nine, and then the last.

1188
01:25:56,570 --> 01:25:59,110
I know, so we're going to deny you.

1189
01:25:59,230 --> 01:26:07,730
But I was going to say, I want to wrap up number eight for so number eight, if somebody wishes

1190
01:26:07,730 --> 01:26:14,630
to have something attached to the record they made, basically. But it does not get attached

1191
01:26:14,630 --> 01:26:19,830
to the minutes, right? I don't. I mean, I thought there'd employ you before say, and

1192
01:26:20,670 --> 01:26:27,370
you didn't attach that to the minutes. I didn't have that happen a year ago, but I didn't

1193
01:26:27,370 --> 01:26:33,290
know what to do with it. You gave me a letter that you read out and put it in front of

1194
01:26:33,290 --> 01:26:39,490
summarized in the minutes probably that the letter and it went on video the whole

1195
01:26:39,490 --> 01:26:42,530
letter so what was I supposed to do in the I don't think you have any

1196
01:26:42,530 --> 01:26:48,130
obligation to officially make it a part of things because these are these are

1197
01:26:48,130 --> 01:26:53,810
your materials right I think we could just end number eight they're encouraged

1198
01:26:53,810 --> 01:27:03,270
to submit that document period I don't think you're obligated that day in

1199
01:27:03,270 --> 01:27:08,270
knowledge and speaks from a written document, may submit that document.

1200
01:27:09,810 --> 01:27:10,590
To what?

1201
01:27:10,970 --> 01:27:11,170
To what?

1202
01:27:11,170 --> 01:27:13,030
Maybe that doesn't need to be there at all.

1203
01:27:13,570 --> 01:27:16,250
That doesn't need to be there unless they ask.

1204
01:27:17,230 --> 01:27:20,910
And then as somebody else, that's the question that I did not know what to do with what was.

1205
01:27:21,150 --> 01:27:23,410
Kerry Roman actually sent me a hold.

1206
01:27:23,630 --> 01:27:27,250
She put on the front of the desk during one of the New Hampshire outbreak meetings.

1207
01:27:27,250 --> 01:27:34,030
a whole genegal packet and just trying to find a man who's like, what am I supposed to do with that?

1208
01:27:34,910 --> 01:27:36,330
Yeah, I have it.

1209
01:27:36,730 --> 01:27:40,610
I've been a file for that meeting that I have, but I, what do I do with it?

1210
01:27:40,610 --> 01:27:41,970
Is it supposed to be on a document?

1211
01:27:43,030 --> 01:27:45,790
That's what that's the kind of thing I'm trying to deal with.

1212
01:27:45,830 --> 01:27:52,250
Because it wasn't everybody's information and it was, and it was she just read a quote from a very long document.

1213
01:27:53,190 --> 01:27:56,890
Yeah, why would you be obligated to maintain that?

1214
01:27:56,910 --> 01:27:58,310
I don't know.

1215
01:27:58,410 --> 01:28:01,130
I think she gave it to me from my knowledge.

1216
01:28:01,130 --> 01:28:02,050
For your education?

1217
01:28:02,470 --> 01:28:03,750
Where I messed up, right?

1218
01:28:05,130 --> 01:28:10,710
But I guess I'm not sure that I'm clear of what problem we're trying to solve right now.

1219
01:28:11,170 --> 01:28:13,910
Because I guess if someone decided that she would be included.

1220
01:28:13,970 --> 01:28:19,750
If Katie Jarvis had not emailed us, but had written down some notes in the chair and then said,

1221
01:28:19,750 --> 01:28:25,650
I leave this with you, we would, and pursue, we would take it, right?

1222
01:28:25,770 --> 01:28:39,570
As a reference, like, maybe, maybe, maybe Elizabeth did hear it on, she wants to reference it, maybe we want to just make sure we have a record because the camera cut out, I mean, you know, it doesn't seem like there's a burden to take, uh, to break in comments.

1223
01:28:39,570 --> 01:28:42,770
I don't think say I can't put it that way, I can't put it that way, I can't put it that way.

1224
01:28:42,870 --> 01:28:44,750
And then it dropped and it could constitute, you know.

1225
01:28:44,930 --> 01:28:46,390
But I mean, these don't get attached anywhere.

1226
01:28:46,590 --> 01:28:50,530
They're just part of like our internal folder of like on the August 20th meeting.

1227
01:28:50,830 --> 01:28:51,670
Here's all my materials.

1228
01:28:51,710 --> 01:28:53,070
Those are the things that the secretary.

1229
01:28:54,610 --> 01:28:54,990
Okay.

1230
01:28:55,250 --> 01:29:01,850
Or wherever these files are kept, if there's a trustee folder on standards end, that has this packet that you sent to us.

1231
01:29:01,870 --> 01:29:03,610
Yes, I have the packets on my code.

1232
01:29:04,290 --> 01:29:09,410
So I think we can like hold it, but I don't know that we need to think of it as an internal

1233
01:29:09,410 --> 01:29:15,070
document into the trustees. Yeah, just it's another point of information that that

1234
01:29:15,070 --> 01:29:18,470
into this meeting's conversation. Like if we needed to go back and understand how

1235
01:29:18,470 --> 01:29:22,230
what the conversation was in the inputs to it, we could look at all these reports,

1236
01:29:22,950 --> 01:29:28,030
correspondence that came in, right? I don't know, that's not a question. How I'm trying to

1237
01:29:28,030 --> 01:29:32,410
back about any public speaker who's acknowledged and speaks from a written document,

1238
01:29:32,410 --> 01:29:43,910
May submit that document, which will be about May submit that document for future reference, which will be...

1239
01:29:43,910 --> 01:29:45,450
I think I don't want to buy old.

1240
01:29:45,870 --> 01:29:46,790
The chat too.

1241
01:29:48,190 --> 01:29:49,670
The meeting limits.

1242
01:29:50,590 --> 01:29:50,730
Yeah.

1243
01:29:51,210 --> 01:29:53,810
My only player makes money.

1244
01:29:53,930 --> 01:29:57,290
I don't know that we want to reference speech from a written document.

1245
01:29:57,350 --> 01:29:59,170
I think we want to say like, there are comments.

1246
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:16,800
Like we're talking about public comment, so like I mean I'm not carry Roman sharing that is probably very helpful but if everyone is quoting books and reference materials and give to some to us, I don't think we need that. I think we need like I'm reading my letter to you and here's what I just said.

1247
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:29,320
Please put it into the record and in that case I would take it that we need to put it in the minutes and it's request and I think it's just good practice to take it anyhow and put it into the minutes so that people have a historical record of it.

1248
01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:31,820
That's why I'm looking at it from a historical record aspect.

1249
01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:37,160
I get it if there's a bunch of, like, let's say brochures and advertising stuff.

1250
01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:40,820
We don't need that, and that should be the discretion, and we don't need to write this down,

1251
01:30:41,300 --> 01:30:43,980
but of the, of the scribe, right?

1252
01:30:44,480 --> 01:30:49,780
But anything that comes in and someone discusses and gives us a written formal document,

1253
01:30:49,840 --> 01:30:56,440
or whatever document, whatever it's written on, we should scale it and include it with the record of the notes.

1254
01:30:56,920 --> 01:30:59,420
I've seen that done. We've done that before.

1255
01:30:59,420 --> 01:31:00,620
And we're seeing that.

1256
01:31:00,620 --> 01:31:03,240
Definitely done that before and another group.

1257
01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:05,180
I might want to get some legal advice.

1258
01:31:05,200 --> 01:31:07,180
What is our obligation to...

1259
01:31:07,180 --> 01:31:08,900
Let's try to...

1260
01:31:08,900 --> 01:31:09,820
We're going to legal on it.

1261
01:31:10,020 --> 01:31:13,260
Let's ask the organization that we can ask.

1262
01:31:14,180 --> 01:31:15,100
You have your munitions.

1263
01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:16,480
Let's ask them.

1264
01:31:16,540 --> 01:31:17,580
You know what they did until they did?

1265
01:31:17,620 --> 01:31:18,660
But we don't get charged.

1266
01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:20,380
I had a call.

1267
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:22,000
There is something else.

1268
01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:23,840
I'm going to contact with them.

1269
01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:28,800
We have a lawyer, they're going to tell us to go to our lawyer as a place over how will they look?

1270
01:31:28,800 --> 01:31:30,040
Oh, that's right.

1271
01:31:30,060 --> 01:31:31,460
We have a lawyer, we're a representative.

1272
01:31:32,340 --> 01:31:37,720
Any speaker who's acknowledged and speaks may submit their written comments to the Board of Trustees?

1273
01:31:39,020 --> 01:31:39,920
Well, that's fair.

1274
01:31:40,100 --> 01:31:40,780
I love it.

1275
01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:41,400
Here's the show.

1276
01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:42,040
There we go.

1277
01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:43,380
And then you have to do with it.

1278
01:31:43,380 --> 01:31:45,720
You have some discretion as to what we do.

1279
01:31:45,780 --> 01:31:49,000
And I'll just carry that language through any other.

1280
01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:53,820
There's clearly discretion on our part to make sure whatever it gives to us is.

1281
01:31:53,820 --> 01:32:01,620
sound, you know, if they're giving us secret documents, the scribe needs to know that we

1282
01:32:01,620 --> 01:32:02,560
won't.

1283
01:32:02,560 --> 01:32:02,740
Yeah.

1284
01:32:02,920 --> 01:32:03,580
Stop taking that.

1285
01:32:03,860 --> 01:32:06,600
Of course, because they could buy, you can get us in trouble.

1286
01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:16,460
So I want to just make sure we capture some of this stuff that people bring in that are

1287
01:32:16,460 --> 01:32:22,680
really important to his historical sort of aspect, because the recording might not be there

1288
01:32:22,680 --> 01:32:23,500
all the time.

1289
01:32:23,500 --> 01:32:24,960
It's like, well, just go to the video.

1290
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:25,920
Well, the video is disappearing.

1291
01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:28,540
They get psycholog, but that document,

1292
01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:29,700
about what that person said.

1293
01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:32,360
The meeting goes to, and they spent the time

1294
01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:35,680
to put in there, should they be part of the public

1295
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:35,980
record?

1296
01:32:36,980 --> 01:32:40,440
And they said, once, you know, at times if it is a public record,

1297
01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:43,380
once it is discussed in public, it becomes a public record.

1298
01:32:45,100 --> 01:32:47,580
They might not discuss it at the time.

1299
01:32:47,740 --> 01:32:48,800
They only have three minutes.

1300
01:32:49,440 --> 01:32:51,720
They might have a whole other slew of whatever.

1301
01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:56,740
I think they don't catch you, and I give to you what was something else.

1302
01:32:56,740 --> 01:32:57,440
I got it.

1303
01:32:57,700 --> 01:32:58,040
I see.

1304
01:32:58,860 --> 01:32:59,500
It's at the board.

1305
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:00,360
It's out of discretion.

1306
01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:02,380
I think what you guys wrote that was good.

1307
01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:04,880
I think there's, you know, you really getting it.

1308
01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:06,920
I'm sick.

1309
01:33:06,920 --> 01:33:10,200
Santa and I talked about number nine, and we just thought of somebody

1310
01:33:10,200 --> 01:33:13,920
needs something, which this did happen last year.

1311
01:33:14,180 --> 01:33:17,420
Someone wants something red because they can't be either meeting

1312
01:33:17,420 --> 01:33:22,960
that they furnish the border with an email copy of their pride in the meeting.

1313
01:33:23,200 --> 01:33:24,560
That's so straightforward, no more money.

1314
01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:26,200
You can leave it there.

1315
01:33:26,600 --> 01:33:31,160
I would just say any resident of Rye may have a third party read a statement for them.

1316
01:33:31,340 --> 01:33:31,640
It's long.

1317
01:33:32,100 --> 01:33:32,140
Yeah.

1318
01:33:32,140 --> 01:33:33,140
Or you want to write a sentence.

1319
01:33:33,420 --> 01:33:34,820
Email prior to the meeting.

1320
01:33:35,220 --> 01:33:37,180
So you know who is, how is it on the back?

1321
01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:41,950
Well, there's about written correspondence.

1322
01:33:45,540 --> 01:33:45,820
Right there.

1323
01:33:46,180 --> 01:33:51,260
Yeah, but if it's just, if I just come into this meeting with a letter,

1324
01:33:51,260 --> 01:33:54,780
And then I say, Joe Martille gaze to me and wants me to read it.

1325
01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:58,120
But it's not email from his email address to the board

1326
01:33:58,120 --> 01:33:59,580
of emails from Joe.

1327
01:34:00,440 --> 01:34:03,200
I could have written out, or anyone could have written out.

1328
01:34:03,480 --> 01:34:05,380
This isn't for me, it's really from Joe.

1329
01:34:05,540 --> 01:34:07,360
You know, so I had a situation where

1330
01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:09,320
a friend of mine couldn't be a meeting that you wanted.

1331
01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:12,700
She didn't email any of the night before he didn't see it.

1332
01:34:12,780 --> 01:34:14,160
And that he still had to see it at the morning.

1333
01:34:14,500 --> 01:34:16,440
And then he said, because so I read it in the story.

1334
01:34:16,540 --> 01:34:17,720
Oh, so I read it.

1335
01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:18,900
I'll look about point two.

1336
01:34:18,900 --> 01:34:23,780
Just so you know, it's officially coming from that person and not from somebody else outside

1337
01:34:24,340 --> 01:34:25,620
of that person.

1338
01:34:26,980 --> 01:34:31,760
I've got to say, you know, what they want to share prior to the meeting.

1339
01:34:32,840 --> 01:34:37,080
And again, for number nine, we could strike which will be entered into your project.

1340
01:34:38,980 --> 01:34:39,620
All right.

1341
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:41,240
So we'll have to look at it again.

1342
01:34:41,540 --> 01:34:43,100
You think it was going to take this sound?

1343
01:34:47,400 --> 01:34:48,040
We

1344
01:34:55,400 --> 01:35:01,860
live on from that and wait for the revisions in our September meeting.

1345
01:35:03,020 --> 01:35:07,880
Okay, we need to talk about how we're going to handle email addresses for the trustees,

1346
01:35:08,780 --> 01:35:13,700
because exactly in the case of Ms. Jarren, she could not find our email addresses

1347
01:35:13,700 --> 01:35:19,020
to either email us as a group and it goes to one person, whether it's the chair,

1348
01:35:19,020 --> 01:35:23,740
or do you want individuals, or do you want people contacting us as individuals?

1349
01:35:25,500 --> 01:35:32,420
Well, I mean, we used to have our individual emails that we adopted over a year ago

1350
01:35:32,420 --> 01:35:34,940
when our personal emails were being blown up.

1351
01:35:35,540 --> 01:35:40,300
But we think maybe it's better to just have trustees that write up a library.

1352
01:35:41,340 --> 01:35:44,540
What about when we emailed to each other like in instance?

1353
01:35:44,540 --> 01:35:51,900
And I'm not sure I did it correctly, by the way, where I went out in your advice guidelines and the VCC said,

1354
01:35:51,920 --> 01:35:55,940
but it's coming from my personal email and it's going to all of your personal emails.

1355
01:35:56,340 --> 01:35:59,400
Yeah, it is for the trustee's business.

1356
01:36:00,040 --> 01:36:03,540
When did we best that we had our own...

1357
01:36:04,300 --> 01:36:05,480
for the trustee email?

1358
01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:09,460
Absolutely, because what would happen and what could happen is,

1359
01:36:09,460 --> 01:36:15,440
that will go to someone that's done right now, they'll see your email and what's going to happen

1360
01:36:15,440 --> 01:36:20,840
is they're going to have your email handle and then to get more information from you they're

1361
01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:26,160
going to ask for a copy of your let's say go to the best composition or something they're going

1362
01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:34,240
to get all of your emails right so I think it's the best in the interest of all of us having separate

1363
01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:42,740
not one generic group, we all have our own addresses that are library-related and all those

1364
01:36:42,740 --> 01:36:49,060
emails in that way, everything that is sent back and forth is public record. And usually

1365
01:36:49,060 --> 01:36:53,940
every one of your emails as public record, I tell people it's all the time that you are, it's

1366
01:36:53,940 --> 01:37:01,000
going to get hacked or someone's going to get it one way or the other. And so I'm all for us having

1367
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:05,800
separate library trustees and I don't even want the same one that I use for

1368
01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:10,160
conservation commission. I want to unique one that way you're not, you know,

1369
01:37:10,240 --> 01:37:13,460
if someone's researching, what did Joe say about what did he do?

1370
01:37:13,540 --> 01:37:17,640
Yeah, first name, shall we write about the library trustee.org?

1371
01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:23,420
Our main convention is first initial last name, the J.M.R.A.R.A.

1372
01:37:23,700 --> 01:37:29,200
at www.publiclibrary.org. And the only negative is now you have another email you need to check

1373
01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:29,720
regularly.

1374
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:35,160
I don't know how regularly, because it could be weeks and they might not be an email, but then all of a sudden there could be central.

1375
01:37:35,440 --> 01:37:37,740
And so if you're not checking, you might miss out.

1376
01:37:38,180 --> 01:37:41,320
Oh, that's something that, as a trustee, you need to be able to do.

1377
01:37:42,180 --> 01:37:45,280
That's a requirement of the job is they'll have to check their emails.

1378
01:37:45,820 --> 01:37:49,960
And if they're falling short of that and missing emails, then.

1379
01:37:50,080 --> 01:37:50,400
Thank you.

1380
01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:51,580
I want to be interested.

1381
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:52,780
I want to be interested.

1382
01:37:53,240 --> 01:37:53,920
I want to be interested.

1383
01:37:54,420 --> 01:37:55,080
You get fired.

1384
01:37:55,480 --> 01:37:55,520
You get fired.

1385
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:56,820
I didn't hear about it.

1386
01:37:56,880 --> 01:37:57,480
So I can say that.

1387
01:37:57,720 --> 01:37:58,800
We'll find you.

1388
01:37:59,640 --> 01:38:01,920
I'm so sure we're not going to get that money.

1389
01:38:02,580 --> 01:38:06,440
Well, I checked mine every day for conservation commission twice.

1390
01:38:07,040 --> 01:38:13,940
And I also feed it into another sort of email tool that allows me to look at all my emails.

1391
01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:17,580
The one that I don't like to look at, and I just like, it's because it's there.

1392
01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:19,340
And we, as you use a lot, it's Yahoo.

1393
01:38:19,760 --> 01:38:22,100
And I'm really bad at that, because it just tastes Yahoo.

1394
01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:25,940
But I just don't like, it's a lot of ads, and everything like that.

1395
01:38:25,940 --> 01:38:30,560
But I think we've all accumulated over years, many emails.

1396
01:38:31,200 --> 01:38:33,700
And you want to check them, because I still get emails on my

1397
01:38:33,700 --> 01:38:37,460
contest that I've used for 10, 15 years.

1398
01:38:39,220 --> 01:38:42,360
So coming up on two hours, Google said that, Scott.

1399
01:38:43,140 --> 01:38:44,040
I will set that up.

1400
01:38:44,040 --> 01:38:47,640
And so you'll have to watch your current email for the invite link.

1401
01:38:48,020 --> 01:38:50,680
So when I tried this previous, I think Elizabeth was the only one.

1402
01:38:51,600 --> 01:38:55,700
So it might look kind of spammy or weird, but it'll be something from Google.

1403
01:38:55,700 --> 01:39:01,920
I think saying that you need to click on this in order to set up the new box or whatever, so you'll

1404
01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:06,860
need to do that within a certain timeframe or the link will expire and it will be coming through

1405
01:39:08,020 --> 01:39:09,060
which service.

1406
01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:10,420
Your current email.

1407
01:39:10,540 --> 01:39:14,780
It'll go to your current email, but the front will be something Google related.

1408
01:39:16,400 --> 01:39:17,660
And I could let you know too.

1409
01:39:17,780 --> 01:39:21,820
I could at the same time send an email from me and say everybody's coming out now.

1410
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:23,120
We're text us.

1411
01:39:23,580 --> 01:39:23,600
Okay.

1412
01:39:23,880 --> 01:39:24,240
Okay.

1413
01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:34,260
Okay, so I move on to the update on the website how we do without I did we've been having it

1414
01:39:34,260 --> 01:39:39,580
a difficult time getting we're trying to get the third quote yeah and you saw I send the email

1415
01:39:39,580 --> 01:39:45,880
for me now to submit plus so for a couple months we've been trying to connect with the third

1416
01:39:45,880 --> 01:39:53,960
vendor for a new website and this is the vendor that did the towns website so I don't know why

1417
01:39:53,960 --> 01:40:00,240
They're not responding, so as now I only have two quotes to show you for our new website.

1418
01:40:01,440 --> 01:40:07,060
And they're very different in terms of who is offering this and what services they would

1419
01:40:07,060 --> 01:40:07,520
provide.

1420
01:40:07,820 --> 01:40:17,100
The first one, the shorter one, is an individual person who would do this, or I and Rhovan,

1421
01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:18,260
and that's what we've done.

1422
01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:21,380
No, the short one that was right in front of the revised.

1423
01:40:21,380 --> 01:40:27,720
There's just a one-page from Jennifer Comedy, first of all, virtual virtual.

1424
01:40:33,780 --> 01:40:34,360
Oh, okay.

1425
01:40:34,940 --> 01:40:35,600
This one.

1426
01:40:38,180 --> 01:40:39,980
And we're doing it here about her.

1427
01:40:40,260 --> 01:40:46,220
So Scott has worked with her previously, and we contacted her with the talk that she would be

1428
01:40:46,220 --> 01:40:47,180
more affordable.

1429
01:40:47,180 --> 01:41:00,180
And she is in a way, but she wouldn't be able to offer us the best service in terms of the ongoing accessibility piece.

1430
01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:03,160
No.

1431
01:41:04,360 --> 01:41:14,100
Patrons of the public being able to access our website, given whatever disabilities or neurological differences they might have.

1432
01:41:14,100 --> 01:41:20,060
We need to have a website that is responsive and has options for different kinds of people

1433
01:41:20,060 --> 01:41:24,840
so what whether they have to select CR or they're hearing their pair visually impaired so she does not.

1434
01:41:25,460 --> 01:41:27,040
She does not know that.

1435
01:41:27,040 --> 01:41:29,640
I think we should talk about this in my public.

1436
01:41:30,780 --> 01:41:30,920
Okay.

1437
01:41:30,920 --> 01:41:33,340
I feel like we're comparing.

1438
01:41:33,340 --> 01:41:37,980
We're comparing and we're talking about strengths and weaknesses of people.

1439
01:41:40,460 --> 01:41:40,820
Skills.

1440
01:41:41,260 --> 01:41:41,520
Okay.

1441
01:41:41,520 --> 01:41:42,600
What's the problem?

1442
01:41:42,600 --> 01:41:44,160
I think that's what we should talk about.

1443
01:41:44,340 --> 01:41:50,460
Is there anything in the minutes that we should reference around the vendor's status?

1444
01:41:51,620 --> 01:41:53,020
We're looking for third on that.

1445
01:41:53,040 --> 01:41:54,400
We're looking for third on that.

1446
01:41:54,440 --> 01:41:56,600
We're in the process of looking at the two.

1447
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:01,020
But once we start discussing with details, I really want to talk about that.

1448
01:42:01,020 --> 01:42:02,660
Thank you for putting in the question.

1449
01:42:02,660 --> 01:42:02,820
Thank you.

1450
01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:04,000
Absolutely right.

1451
01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:07,640
And we're going to take that discussion into an important problem.

1452
01:42:09,050 --> 01:42:17,350
about the new businesses we have a donation of our work, and there, we do have a policy about that, I suppose.

1453
01:42:17,590 --> 01:42:23,330
Yeah, and also says you do need to approve, yeah, we do need to approve that accepting.

1454
01:42:23,450 --> 01:42:27,490
How many acceptance of a work of art that we hang in somewhere?

1455
01:42:27,610 --> 01:42:30,950
So it's up to you to say, discern now.

1456
01:42:31,950 --> 01:42:38,930
And this donation would be given without any sort of strings or stipulations other than the person who asks to remain anonymous.

1457
01:42:39,050 --> 01:42:46,150
And I'll just say that it is not the artist's house doing it, and it is like a copy.

1458
01:42:47,210 --> 01:42:51,310
It is a copy done on metal in this 40 by 40.

1459
01:42:51,750 --> 01:42:53,390
So it's a significant size.

1460
01:42:53,390 --> 01:42:54,150
So it's a reproduction.

1461
01:42:56,070 --> 01:42:56,090
Yes.

1462
01:42:56,090 --> 01:42:57,390
Another piece of art.

1463
01:42:57,610 --> 01:42:58,650
It's not original.

1464
01:42:58,870 --> 01:42:59,410
Correct.

1465
01:42:59,730 --> 01:43:00,270
Look at it.

1466
01:43:01,810 --> 01:43:03,250
So it's not a picture.

1467
01:43:03,450 --> 01:43:07,190
When I look at the art acceptance policy that we have,

1468
01:43:07,190 --> 01:43:13,630
Is this a permanent donation or is there something that is going to be on display for a certain amount of money?

1469
01:43:13,630 --> 01:43:14,890
This would be a permanent donation.

1470
01:43:15,190 --> 01:43:22,670
But at some point we want to sell, trade, move it to another home that would be within our right.

1471
01:43:23,310 --> 01:43:27,010
We are not obligated to move on to this permanently or to display it permanently.

1472
01:43:28,170 --> 01:43:31,000
I think that's really nice.

1473
01:43:31,820 --> 01:43:35,460
We want to donate a piece of artwork to the library.

1474
01:43:35,460 --> 01:43:41,460
The reason I thought it might be of interest is that it is the sister of a famous author that is known to us.

1475
01:43:42,340 --> 01:43:45,640
And so I thought that the life of the artist could not have seen.

1476
01:43:46,220 --> 01:43:48,300
Okay, yeah, that's another one.

1477
01:43:48,740 --> 01:43:50,260
I think we should talk about real quickly.

1478
01:43:50,680 --> 01:43:55,060
I mean, I want to say things about it, but of course, you know, that's opinion.

1479
01:43:56,760 --> 01:43:57,620
But yeah.

1480
01:43:58,940 --> 01:44:00,760
You need to know what to know about what this is.

1481
01:44:00,760 --> 01:44:02,120
I mean, we're going to be in on public.

1482
01:44:02,340 --> 01:44:08,160
I do have some, I want to say things about art and that's all stuff that I don't know if it's.

1483
01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:08,640
That's okay.

1484
01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:10,520
We can take it as an on public, too.

1485
01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:11,240
What is this?

1486
01:44:11,540 --> 01:44:12,060
I did it.

1487
01:44:12,480 --> 01:44:14,500
Four feet by four feet.

1488
01:44:15,860 --> 01:44:15,940
Okay.

1489
01:44:16,140 --> 01:44:17,020
We're going to take that on.

1490
01:44:17,100 --> 01:44:18,800
Let's do not on public, too.

1491
01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:19,780
All right.

1492
01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:23,240
That's an action right now.

1493
01:44:23,420 --> 01:44:24,480
No action right now.

1494
01:44:26,700 --> 01:44:29,460
We should have a conversation about the future meeting times.

1495
01:44:29,460 --> 01:44:36,800
If you want to stick with just a Thursday night, how does that work with the call of how does the third Thursday work for me?

1496
01:44:37,380 --> 01:44:44,100
It's a great for me, except for I forgot to look forward to my calendar, so I know I've done about 10 or 10 or 10.

1497
01:44:45,020 --> 01:44:47,460
And I apologize for that.

1498
01:44:48,760 --> 01:44:49,060
Okay.

1499
01:44:51,490 --> 01:44:52,910
So that is out.

1500
01:44:53,230 --> 01:44:57,530
Maybe we can leave the crime out immediately, because we're going to be working on a bunch of things right now.

1501
01:44:58,490 --> 01:44:59,970
But we're right about it.

1502
01:45:00,370 --> 01:45:02,670
All right, can I bet you can still do it with me?

1503
01:45:02,910 --> 01:45:03,290
You can still do it with me?

1504
01:45:03,290 --> 01:45:05,230
No, I'm quite flexible.

1505
01:45:07,330 --> 01:45:08,270
Most days.

1506
01:45:08,750 --> 01:45:11,050
I just have to put me down down that one day.

1507
01:45:11,910 --> 01:45:13,290
So, I don't think it will.

1508
01:45:13,630 --> 01:45:14,710
In fact,

1509
01:45:16,750 --> 01:45:18,190
budget committee meeting.

1510
01:45:19,270 --> 01:45:19,970
Yeah, the monthly meeting.

1511
01:45:21,010 --> 01:45:21,610
No, they do.

1512
01:45:26,140 --> 01:45:27,860
It generally works for me.

1513
01:45:28,940 --> 01:45:30,700
And I just naturally can't let you go.

1514
01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:47,860
Joe, did those days work for you?

1515
01:45:47,940 --> 01:45:48,140
Yes.

1516
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:09,260
And the trustee is absent to be reasonable.

1517
01:46:09,500 --> 01:46:10,940
Or do we just move ahead with that, Melissa?

1518
01:46:11,800 --> 01:46:12,800
No, for sure not.

1519
01:46:13,500 --> 01:46:13,680
Okay.

1520
01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,500
Maybe if it weren't your land, we might consider it.

1521
01:46:16,660 --> 01:46:18,920
But of course, Victor could serve if you're going.

1522
01:46:18,940 --> 01:46:19,700
Can't make it.

1523
01:46:20,120 --> 01:46:20,840
Okay, great.

1524
01:46:22,140 --> 01:46:22,760
So, we'll miss you.

1525
01:46:24,440 --> 01:46:26,540
You can fill me up with everything I've missed.

1526
01:46:28,200 --> 01:46:30,480
So, we are good moving forward with these days.

1527
01:46:30,680 --> 01:46:30,980
Great.

1528
01:46:34,460 --> 01:46:43,060
And I'll well advance about meeting, I'll I'll revise the guidelines for our meeting.

1529
01:46:43,680 --> 01:46:47,140
And I think those just are really too awesome.

1530
01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:48,040
All right.

1531
01:46:50,110 --> 01:46:55,590
So if we're done at this point, I'd like to make a motion to go into non public meeting.

1532
01:46:56,470 --> 01:47:00,850
Based on RSA-91-A3-2-C.

1533
01:47:00,850 --> 01:47:06,710
as well as E, as I just want it for a month.

1534
01:47:06,990 --> 01:47:12,570
This C reputation, C is reputation and E is a litigation.

1535
01:47:13,330 --> 01:47:14,790
I'll set it up.

1536
01:47:15,290 --> 01:47:16,030
All in favor?

1537
01:47:16,710 --> 01:47:17,050
Okay.

1538
01:47:17,770 --> 01:47:19,230
We're all in favor.

1539
01:47:20,190 --> 01:47:21,290
Tribal turnoff.

1540
01:47:21,630 --> 01:47:22,210
Thank you.
