[1:47] >> No.

[1:48] >> I just on the um

[1:50] item well uh

[1:52] I don't know what the number is on

[1:53] letter A.

[1:55] Are we going to

[1:56] get that or I'm sorry if you're

[1:58] >> It's in the packet.

[1:59] Okay, good.

[2:00] Do you mind if I look at that? Thank

[2:03] you.

[2:04] >> [clears throat]

[2:06] >> So, no changes, right? And then

[2:08] >> So, this is the tax rate, the certified

[2:11] tax rate. So, it keeps everything the

[2:13] same. We do get money for new growth,

[2:15] which in this case was

[2:19] Uh

[2:19] >> 38,500

[2:21] >> at 45,000 and got a little less than

[2:23] that.

[2:23] >> I'm finally understanding it. So, thank

[2:25] you. And then on the second, uh letter

[2:26] B, uh

[2:28] that's 22K.

[2:30] And pardon if this is in the packet. Um

[2:33] Is

[2:33] >> It was.

[2:34] >> Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

[2:36] >> Um

[2:37] >> I won't take long. The uh

[2:39] This is

[2:40] I was trying to under- I actually did

[2:41] read this. I was trying to understand

[2:43] This is just for the change

[2:46] uh that we

[2:48] asked for to show brick or not Not for

[2:51] anything else. This is just for them to

[2:53] do more designs.

[2:54] >> This is the to update the plans and the

[2:57] structural for the exterior changes that

[2:59] were approved last Tuesday night.

[3:01] >> But this is just for their time of like

[3:04] changing it to look like brick or

[3:05] whatever or not.

[3:06] >> Right. That's not for the material

[3:07] changes. We haven't had We don't have

[3:09] the price tag on that yet. But we're

[3:11] hoping the price difference will negate,

[3:13] but we have no idea what that will be

[3:14] until the bid comes through.

[3:16] >> So, I just I don't know. That seems like

[3:18] a lot, 22 grand for that. Um so, I'm

[3:21] kind

[3:21] >> This is what happens when you do a

[3:22] change order. They have complete control

[3:24] over the cost because they're already

[3:25] contracted.

[3:26] >> Right.

[3:27] >> Um we This is what they gave us. I did

[3:29] Yesterday we had a meeting.

[3:31] I said, "Wait, structural went up a

[3:32] thousand. The What?" I think Shane sent

[3:35] Did you send this one out or the

[3:36] previous one?

[3:37] >> It was the one that they had just

[3:39] >> So, there is a thousand-dollar

[3:40] difference. They just sent right sent

[3:42] over a rough estimate, and this is their

[3:44] final real estimate. And so, yes, it

[3:46] went up a thousand to 2275, which is

[3:49] over our design contingency.

[3:51] >> Okay, awesome. Okay, so I can be yes on

[3:53] one but no on another. Is that okay or

[3:55] is it just all or nothing?

[3:57] >> We can spread it. I guess we could um

[3:59] spread it out, but um

[4:01] >> It's okay. I can just say no and I'm

[4:02] sure the votes will carry, but uh but I

[4:04] just think it's too much. That's all I'm

[4:05] saying. I mean just if we could try to

[4:07] be cautious since we're working with

[4:09] them with any other future

[4:11] modifications or realizing that we're

[4:12] kind of locked.

[4:14] >> That's

[4:14] >> I I would really hope because it sounds

[4:16] like they can charge a lot of money and

[4:18] >> That was my concern.

[4:19] >> I know I mean this is So Mayor, that was

[4:21] a valid concern and I'm sorry for uh

[4:24] this

[4:25] and I hope we don't have anything else

[4:26] like it.

[4:27] >> And and we do have a contract with the

[4:29] architect. Uh it would have been passed

[4:32] last year

[4:33] um and it outlined, you know, if there

[4:35] are any changes, this is how it's

[4:37] handled. So they're following the

[4:39] contract. This is just the the cost.

[4:42] >> Right, it just sucks. Okay, thank you. I

[4:44] appreciate it.

[4:44] >> Okay, so we have um

[4:46] Brent, do you have any questions

[4:47] regarding the items?
