[0:00] and then when they like how much was the contract I don't have the contract in
[0:04] front of me it's I think it was 112 it went up six it was we were discussing
[0:15] 141,000 and I got looking at it again and in the contract the bottom one
[0:21] hundred one hundred twelve thousand thank goodness
[0:25] yeah well they didn't charge us for the labor and looking at the and we all
[0:29] you're talking about that night it looks like looking at the bottom line is one
[0:37] hundred and twelve thousand and then the you can jump six thousand dollars it's
[0:42] the last estimate that you've given us okay well all I like said we will
[0:47] discuss another forty one thousand really close but then we have massive
[0:53] revenue coming up how about how about if y'all look at those roadless that we can
[0:57] get into here and y'all decide which roads the job they'll likely be the
[1:01] better option for us to do and save enough in there to do that breathing and
[1:07] then if we're right then if we have enough left after the bridge then maybe
[1:11] we can do a couple more roads
[1:17] yeah
[1:30] our taxes look at it the fact sheet on Mars or for our accounts have gone up
[1:38] son and they keep to go without so maybe by the end of the summer we can do some
[1:42] more when we figure out what and what I was gonna suggest is it me and Ronnie
[1:49] and tell me and anybody else wants to if we want to declare a Lincoln we do that
[1:54] I'll get out there and major thankful thank exactly what we think thanks a lot
[2:00] all we will and I think at least we've cleared the ban exactly where does
[2:06] office forum I think that's great I think that that would be our best option
[2:09] we'd I'm afraid they may get started if you get that we may not have the money
[2:14] to you know continue with some of the roads so if y'all can you know maybe
[2:18] look at the list and kind of decide which one don't think it's the most
[2:22] urgent
[2:31] I said we can't make a better government that's all well I don't like that land
[2:40] with us one day when he can be there so I was the only one that actually tell
[2:44] him exactly what dude you write all this stuff down for six months they still
[2:48] like them then you drive around market around the banks retailers

[8:34] [Music] so tell me that can't
[8:41] only on the in most occasions a thousand to prove the radar I make a motion to
[8:57] the power
[9:02] we supported the 14th please say that's because this is a part
[9:10] of the brain part though that's what I'm trying to find out if you learn huh

[9:59] bond to the parking lot so any questions for the jeans are the captain thank you
[10:10] makes it are for cheap plants
[10:25] that's not the only gave out 12 burp lament we have one week choice structure
[10:30] part of spring bushfires little people about are too far along one
[10:35] Hospital 12:28 Medical College seven more a bit like maybe know we've been up
[10:45] I'm going with the spoken barks barks insulation in the bag the treadmill fire
[10:52] outbreak beyond that basic half pass it out to date where as Canadian company of
[11:03] about ninety seven thousand five hundred nineteen dollars maybe a sense that the
[11:09] insurance is working on justified and we still have a couple yes now when
[11:46] I call has they'd already been approved with the insurance I mean with the
[11:54] adjuster he said dude we need to do as far
[11:56] company bring on yes but we've been trying to work with them he he's a
[12:03] Buddhist by anything I've grown out of him but I give him a wide I don't try to
[12:07] work within the best we can as well so we kind of work with each other pretty
[12:12] good relationship but each one of those things are broke down on exactly what
[12:17] everything from the trash can tears baltimore's it monitors we restarted by
[12:24] the interpreter system pre-certified some of the biggest items
[12:33] were cleaning $52,000 and painting and plays the ceiling tiles and some of the
[12:41] panes in the bay for the contractor the $20,000 figure right there everything
[12:46] else is a lot more lot smaller that's some of the bigger things
[12:50] [Music] nowhere any question about now
[13:03] all right the ESO software on that we're currently in the training phase of that
[13:08] we're hopefully going online in the next two to three weeks with the state if you
[13:15] find that your software in college like any other software it's got their own
[13:19] way of doing it it's just about training everybody one thing we had done the
[13:25] bathe we kept the baseboards redone
[13:32] $5,100 paid for would be going to be done burn Marty remove the floor while
[13:40] they were there would look at the potato and the offices to find out what when
[13:44] you do that is we're at a very concrete all the steelers and ceilings for the
[13:49] concrete floors the fire department orders down the bear country right now
[13:55] they gave an estimate to redo those four were staged a room and the officers
[14:02] $2,600 strip it down and this in the insurance is not well not paid on fire
[14:11] damage fire damage didn't cover the whole bear is just a smarter so we
[14:20] wouldn't the city would be responsible if we do that for that and he said he
[14:24] got it for 2,600 father here they like but he said he calculates
[14:40] miniatures or something
[14:45] it's not it's not a budget I think we should we should see we've got some
[15:06] money in capital expenditures and right then we've got the money that's peermark
[15:11] for the parking we don't get in capital expenditures too much until we do know
[15:18] don't be able to get there is that how long would he on the niche do you know
[15:33] the next item on the list was the smoke detector so we talked about that in
[15:37] depth previous months got the estimate on that what we need to do is this the
[15:44] whole seven smoke detectors to to heat detectors and with three of the carbon
[15:50] dioxide slash cop / smoke detector combination detectors and wiring all
[15:56] into one in other words it down there to take the smoke the entire building
[16:02] upstairs and downstairs activation if you don't where - when they had the
[16:09] smoke damage there's no smoke detector at all back there in their living
[16:12] quarters and that's really dangerous press not have anything that's here
[16:20] just to take care of the whole building without going with a major simplex type
[16:25] system or something like that which would be thousands of dollars dollar
[16:36] figure on that with $1,950 that's what improv on all of the hardware wiring
[16:45] what company is that that is the contractor in the the GBS contracting
[16:53] there's one who did the painting and what the bay lights and things like that
[17:00] are they a licensed electrician insured and bonded
[17:04] [Music] so they have a master master master
[17:14] banished a license on did you do insurance for Kenny was okay but it
[17:20] would be a master master electrician that works out and they are their
[17:26] electrician company well I mean just since we've had that electrical fire as
[18:21] y'all are we doing set it for a year with furniture in the building so these
[18:35] are not redundant so these are not the kind that y'all can put in yourself
[18:39] because I know who loves firemen go around and different you know
[18:42] [Music] battery operated smoke detector these
[18:46] are acquired throughout the building and they're considering the other button
[18:50] only what I've no batteries - they've got 110 - chunk you've only got the one
[18:59] estimate on the smoke detector we can [Music]
[19:23] and this is the company that did the painting company painting wire all
[19:28] lighting of a place of ceiling tile put stress on the stairwell
[19:35] [Music]
[19:45] he said he has trouble getting them to come out and be it been nightmare get
[19:49] killers come out of business do the carpet alone I call denying companies
[20:01] and you just you're saying the same thing everywhere Gary's having the same
[20:04] problem right now I'll make a motion to go ahead and go with them up see us get
[20:14] one Boris people could possibly get one more incident so we had something to
[20:19] compare it up to 1850
[20:36] [Music]
[20:42] I retract my motion and next motion anyone three anybody
[20:53] else anything as our fire commissioner
[20:59] [Music]
[21:06] usually our language in this I'll make motion that we approve she
[21:14] plans to spend up to eighteen hundred and fifty hours to and the smoke
[21:18] detectors and everything that he has listed here after he gets a second being
[21:25] as long as they're licensed or certified monthly company sick
[21:36] so what go ahead man any further discussion
[21:39] yeah I'm good with and also I'd like to get to bigots and brought in mayor's
[21:48] office
[21:55] well it's kind of dangerous back there in sleeping why can't you see all this
[22:01] stuff you making buildings you still got your ones up top working right yeah we
[22:06] still got an individual the operating fire down my house it doesn't think
[22:17] you're talking about alarm been sent in area for eight years of the month a
[22:40] couple get a motion in a second info discussion roll call please council
[22:47] person talent yes moment yes that's a person messy yes
[22:51] yes council pretty brown I'm staying I'm gonna die since I'm gonna be looking
[22:59] at so we have four so it pasted
[23:08] okay something else that I just thought about my constituents going back to the
[23:17] dumpster thing what are all it's still in this building
[23:21] that we need to go into that dumpster okay we got the contaminated call
[23:26] mattresses the plan appears to be some carpet there's a couple cabinets they
[23:37] I think you said there's some stuff outside - I think all that's been
[23:43] removed we've been putting some stuff in the dumpster probably called off with
[23:50] two loads maybe the trailer we have two done which everyone beneficial
[23:56] well the insurance company they make sure to work with us kind of work with
[24:02] them inspire to get the best the best deal polluters pay for our guys to be
[24:06] moody at the dump in need they here
[24:24] linear in nature is coming we'll pay for the insurance coming pay for the gum
[24:37] without much to me I just well we have overfilled commercial nobody having a
[25:03] look at mattresses box springs they've got a washer/dryer the grill is all that
[25:11] stuff still dryer even real has that done in metal we can think so that would
[25:40] leave the pocket the chairs the mattresses
[25:45] I mean I'm just trying to figure in my mind with the cheaper to have them come
[25:48] and empty the dump sure that we've got more than once a week versus different
[25:53] right along the carpet something well probably talk into the 881 sighs we're
[26:08] just now getting that point work the last day we clean up all the stuff off
[26:12] wait to the carpet thing we get done with what they gotta do is we do it all
[26:15] at one time so yeah while I really like is Department in the baseboards okay
[26:20] let's see it Prime we already got anything else done I'm
[26:24] gonna say yes it's very long tour fenders in popular black this week will
[26:28] be at home can we replace seven mattresses did we have seven mattresses
[26:34] so we got seven mattress it's a box wrench to hold on
[26:39] [Music] you should be enough probably though to
[26:46] fill up the dumpster if there and maybe that's right they'd probably have to go
[26:50] twice they make more than one side of a robot
[26:56] I understood what everybody's into these men these read people's but they my
[27:10] vision to one let me get this cleaner
[27:16] [Music]
[27:30] you're the expert real you say what I'm saying that's why the court they were
[27:56] soon in two trucks and I'm saying that's why they like an empty and bring an
[28:14] empty one here and then the truck go back so you're gonna camp you gonna
[28:22] check with the insurance company find out what to bid the baby the better
[28:25] option and how much exactly
[28:30] see a better context okay they gotta forget regardless how you have any more
[28:37] questions I have a question about something up to 14
[28:54] still with angels damages okay let me ask one more question in there Tommy
[28:58] they are the company that the city contracted with to follow the insurance
[29:04] claims random no this has nothing to do with the fire
[29:15] remember but do a few months back and maybe give you back when the guy came
[29:19] and talked to us about being reimbursed
[29:24] mortalities yeah making calls his name was Randall like I have though have we
[29:38] been doing those that we collectively like for those we have any money we're
[29:41] trying to get the information from the fabric they're hardwired Road now I've
[29:45] got the information mistake we didn't get the insurance information
[29:51] [Music] somebody have yes we have per song which
[29:59] is anything but there's others we have not had anything we can charge forward
[30:05] to this we have one thing I was ready to Richard Harvey at the Tigers meeting and
[30:11] he said that y'all assisted on the fire and he got assisted on that fire and he
[30:18] said that he didn't think you had filled out the truck works when he did it for
[30:21] us and he said that Tom but he would like for it to ask for us to give them a
[30:26] portion of it but yeah that would've been nice knowing that that's going
[30:35] through this frame because anyone about him yeah yeah he said that he did too
[30:39] did the type of work on that work so that seventy two cents we contracted
[30:43] with those people that have been eligible for reimbursement said house
[30:50] fires and ribs I don't remember
[30:55] we can't build for this day mr. break it has to be something with extra patience
[30:59] all y'all clap you're doing some kind of trails cleanup like all off the road
[31:06] things like that that's what sure that's what you're
[31:09] actually billing forward you're not actually building for the response
[31:16] that's what it kind of gets misconstrued how I would I'm getting my lunch money
