[0:15] plays one joking junior [0:19] alderman plays two frank rodriguez elder woman plays three rachel munoz [0:27] outdoor woman plays for francisca chica hernandez [0:31] alderman plays five andre mayor you have before thank [0:37] you please rise [0:47] the united states of america into the republic for which it stands [0:52] one nation under god [0:55] indivisible with liberty and justice [1:04] and at this time [1:16] and here i would like to address um sorry [1:20] i had the partners of progress give me a call which is an organization we're [1:24] going to do the main street program called to let me know that [1:29] they're going to pull out the grant they don't have confidence in their city [1:33] council to be able to proceed so they want to head out austin so they've known [1:37] to pull it out and that maybe they'll try [1:42] um [1:54] actually what i'm doing is i'm asking for status report [1:58] our attorneys are not president [2:03] i um [2:08] who was rather emphatic about the situation and rather [2:13] upset about the actions that are taking place [2:16] regarding the law that we [2:20] wanted to [2:32] apparently um i didn't know who she was when she came [2:36] to see me i realized who she was [2:42] uh her story is it and i told her that i'm afraid for the [2:46] attention of the council and unfortunately [3:03] it was table due to the fact that the island had not been advertised [3:09] again we've not followed the secret [3:13] so the island's taken [3:30] it wasn't table because it was an adder tag it was table [3:36] because we wanted to go out and look at the lot as we've done before with [3:39] another box we wanted to see what property we were selling [3:51] somebody raised the question of whether they had advertised it or not and the [3:56] answer was no so the end in it and you may be you may [4:00] be correct that and i'm not correct too because [4:04] that was one of the reasons i don't recall [4:09] what you're saying but then again i don't care [4:26] okay there was nothing done until august the 13th apparently this our august [4:31] eight i have a copy of the public notice here where they [4:35] a lot is being advertised for sale [4:40] now the problem here as i see it [4:47] is that when we discussed it on june 11 the bed was made public [4:52] the 500 bed was made public so [4:58] as a result has been tabled it was publicized on august the 8th [5:04] 2013. on august 13th [5:21] why we didn't act on it but we did not act on it [5:25] so [5:28] there seems to be no it doesn't seem to be there is quite a bit of confusion [5:34] regarding this thought so maybe we should ask our attorney how we should [5:38] proceed with this uh seeing how we have two bids [5:44] for 500 but the process [5:48] has been compromised [6:24] okay she's been in limbo for about three to four months now [6:28] she did the right procedure now what happened what happened is mr [6:33] garcia took in a bid after the friday deadline [6:40] after the he was he wanted all the paperwork [6:44] anything on the tinder we put on [6:49] before he publishes the agenda correct [6:53] she had done that now the next bidder [6:58] put in his bid after fed [7:02] he put it on a monday at 9 05 and we're still we're still [7:08] thinking uh mr suffered for [7:12] somebody else's mistakes okay [7:17] during that meeting i have a good idea when did this second vidcon [7:23] and he said today well irrespective of whether it was monday or june [7:44] when previously we've sold several properties with other individuals [7:49] for less than five hundred dollars [8:09] uh [8:33] um [8:51] he did do a lot for us it's just the fact that i couldn't [8:55] access this fixed year [8:58] but i do want to thank him for his efforts [9:00] um [9:43] it is now 6 10 um [10:08] beautiful [10:21] this is [10:42] it is now 7 24 and today is [10:56] department of the city [11:10] i'd like a motion to authorize police department [11:36] is [11:53] that's my big [12:08] yes [12:21] let me rephrase that the financial statement that we have received [12:27] is at least nine months [12:30] after the fact the last thing we got we did i think [12:35] november of 2012 my math is correct since about eight or [12:40] months eight or nine months ago that does not give us a true picture of [12:46] where we stand financially at this point we don't know [13:18] the individual it's not about the individual it's about the hiring process [13:23] i have nothing to do with the individual as long as you deal with following the [13:28] things that follow our coordinates [13:32] if we fall into the habit of violating our old ordinances and coming back and [13:37] reaffirming them i think we're in trouble [13:40] but based on those facts [13:45] i agree on a temporary basis i did ask the ladies at the office to give me some [13:51] figures as far as [13:53] the expenses on the cheap the department and then it was very hard for them to [13:59] come up with anything but what i did see kind of worried me uh [14:05] it's going to be very tight so yes one temporary basis [14:10] you know i respect the decision but [14:14] um it all depends again on our finances i think everybody here remembers mr [14:22] garcia stated we were paying attention to paycheck so uh it is a concern for [14:28] his finances [14:43] yes [15:10] there um [15:38] uh [15:59] is [16:33] supposedly [16:41] discussion possible action to admit job title and job responsibilities of [16:45] existing city secretariats [16:57] discussion possible action to establish dark responsibilities for the city [17:01] secretary for the city of brazil [17:09] our recommendation that's also a no action type item [17:13] as long as and i think we'll [17:16] let nora know that for the meantime because there is no [17:19] city manager administrator in place she's having to undertake additional [17:25] jobs and responsibilities [17:51] thank you i appreciate it i i just want the puppet to know that myself [17:57] marisela and veronica garcia have [18:01] had and will continue to do the best for the city we are there to do our job we [18:06] continue to do our job every day we've offered our services to the [18:10] council members any questions that they have they can come and ask us we just [18:14] ask some time for give us time because sometimes it's hard [18:17] for us to do our everyday task plus get information that is being asked for but [18:23] we are at your services all three of us are more than willing [18:27] to help you um just a little note ida was coming back to work she's not [18:33] feeling well so we asked you for prayer for item but aya was planning to come [18:38] back to work as of yesterday so we are at your disposal so just give [18:43] us a little bit of time when you ask us for information because we help each [18:47] other we answer phone calls we attend to customers that walk into the door also [18:52] thank you [19:07] and i believe [19:36] several [19:50] i [20:04] that's not [20:15] um [20:32] and i'm just wondering whether we need to continue in water [20:37] i would support an even tighter [20:41] moratorium on any further film than water [20:45] maybe uh the last time i [20:56] um [21:03] um [21:27] the accuracy of these tests [21:37] is there any possibility by some act of nature [21:42] you know and nature's [22:10] the city water wheel let's check [22:19] baby the the water [23:01] are they being read correctly i [23:05] we should have i noticed uh what [23:10] money was shown to us for us on the blackbeard and i believe there should be [23:16] a lot more and i'm not saying or anything anyone updating anything i'm [23:20] saying [23:34] you know i can see from my experience you know i know the mistakes can be made [23:40] but but it's easy to to fix those mistakes so i i don't know [23:46] if we're gonna go the entire year making the same [24:02] the [24:15] i believe louise is being used and maybe the track field [24:22] i am [24:44] is um if i remember correctly when david [24:50] was alive david was the one that read them so i'm assuming now it's joe kelly [24:55] but i i could be corrected mike would you happen to know it'd be [24:59] whoever gets the work order if joe does it himself or because it's somebody else [25:03] to do it just about if it's a work order [25:15] unless we have a contract with someone i don't know we have a fiscal contract [25:19] with the key west we have [25:21] account if we don't have a contract with that we can stop but if we have a [25:25] contract with someone we need to obligate that contract [25:29] but at the same on the same hand we need to [25:32] have a place where those meters are read properly i think [25:37] uh that's getting energy said it was step 340 [25:40] and [25:54] hasn't [26:22] okay [26:50] 11 o'clock [27:04] they would have access to the to the water meter 24 7. who was reporting the [27:09] number we would just go and get the numbers at the beginning [27:13] let's say we open today we'll get the numbers today and then on [27:17] the 15th of the month [27:28] right and that's how we determined [27:44] we don't have an automatic system [27:49] okay [28:15] the uh the type of leaders you have next mechanical meters that with time can [28:20] slow down it gets stuck and whatnot so if you go in with the latest technology [28:26] you know [28:28] we use that right over there there is money and some [28:34] possibilities as far as how you meet how often [28:38] a guy has uh [28:47] a couple years [28:55] in the city [29:09] so you really want to monitor an industrial account you can only take it [29:14] to those accounts and so you don't have to make spend [29:18] millions of dollars a hundred thousand dollars [29:20] for the entire city and this is [29:50] the city owns everyone [29:58] for sure [30:12] in the last six to eight months [30:28] is [30:55] is [31:07] you know there's always speculation about what's going on [31:11] i believe in going to [31:14] the amen asking a direct question and [31:30] investigation [31:43] is [31:50] i believe we sent it by certified mail and i believe we sent it by certified [31:55] mail and by regular member no you haven't received a response [32:13] no no i don't right [32:15] uh [32:31] um
