there as far as 18 00:02:09,899 --> 00:02:27,549 insurance for sewer problems I guess we could assume a Cathar back yeah and soul 19 00:02:22,629 --> 00:02:35,379 in essence this probably could affect the whole a city the Breezy Point not 20 00:02:29,739 --> 00:02:40,239 just sewer hookup people well if in fact something happened and the city had to 21 00:02:38,290 --> 00:02:47,290 pay out some money it would come from the whole of the city not just the sewer 22 00:02:42,370 --> 00:02:53,069 people so it would it's a bigger picture than just the sewer hookup possibly 23 00:02:55,750 --> 00:03:04,579 yeah which people from the whole cruzi point pay into no only the people only 24 00:03:03,079 --> 00:03:09,799 the people that are on super people start to it I'm not answer amore okay 25 00:03:07,790 --> 00:03:12,950 alright so it's one of the people that are on the sewer that actually pay into 26 00:03:11,659 --> 00:03:20,209 the sewer fund and it's a sewer fund that pays for insurance misunderstood 27 00:03:15,409 --> 00:03:29,120 that okay Oh is there any public input for this I don't um as the people on the 28 00:03:25,849 --> 00:03:41,450 sewer system do they have been have they been notified about this no no okay you 29 00:03:39,019 --> 00:03:52,629 can go on record yeah I'm probably one of a few of the 753 so there's 752 other 30 00:03:45,769 --> 00:04:02,079 people okay they need to be notified and looking at the rates it says a manual 31 00:03:58,250 --> 00:04:02,079 rate what is a manual rate 32 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:08,040 there is at an annual rate or a manual 33 00:04:09,450 --> 00:04:16,900 so I got I got to interpret that that way uh okay yeah we'll be talking about 34 00:04:14,620 --> 00:04:22,690 that you know later on it may be that a sorcerer so it's an annual rate that 35 00:04:20,350 --> 00:04:31,300 we're going to say not per quarter per year per month ok so my input on that is 36 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:36,370 said if you're going to have any coverage at all I wouldn't have to shoot 37 00:04:34,060 --> 00:04:41,440 for the max on that what you're looking at because you can't do much for 38 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:49,980 anything less than that nowadays you never know what you're going to get into 39 00:04:44,010 --> 00:04:49,980 ok and I suppose 40 00:04:51,670 --> 00:05:01,660 not to pick on Neil but I will is he one or five sewer hookup sir cause he those 41 00:04:59,650 --> 00:05:10,140 are individual hookups it's not the number okay so he's won he's won okay 42 00:05:06,390 --> 00:05:10,140 long bristow ok 43 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,040 no no 44 00:05:16,420 --> 00:05:18,480 uh 45 00:05:19,020 --> 00:05:27,000 seems like there's a lot of people right now that aren't around faucet hill 46 00:05:24,389 --> 00:05:30,870 there's nobody around their summer people are not back yet so they really 47 00:05:29,819 --> 00:05:36,659 don't know what's going on here hopefully you'll keep your eyes open on 48 00:05:32,849 --> 00:05:41,240 this and get them informed as to what's going on before you vote thank you 49 00:05:44,889 --> 00:05:54,490 anybody else for open forum video securing an open forum is closed our 50 00:05:51,460 --> 00:06:01,360 next order of business is the 2015 audit report we've had our audit completed you 51 00:05:57,249 --> 00:06:07,960 have the size of the pot report before you and the memo from Joe to the council 52 00:06:05,139 --> 00:06:13,180 members I'm not going to go into detail on them Joe I'll let you if you want to 53 00:06:10,270 --> 00:06:19,360 get started on that bill look John Archer jump right into it ok John Archer 54 00:06:15,460 --> 00:06:23,650 from ashlynnwinter ok you will have all the details and that's this handout that 55 00:06:21,729 --> 00:06:26,469 you have here correct yeah okay so what I've done is I've taken all the 56 00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:30,009 information in the financial statements I've kind of summarized them to get the 57 00:06:28,210 --> 00:06:36,879 high points for East we're not getting all day long good so let's flip in we're 58 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:43,389 going to talk a little bit about the auditor's report itself well every year 59 00:06:41,169 --> 00:06:47,860 along with the financial statements we issue an independent auditors report and 60 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:52,900 what that talks about is I talked about a few things what not it is what it 61 00:06:50,349 --> 00:06:56,529 isn't and then the end result of all that is that we give an opinion on your 62 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:01,479 financial statements on whether we think they're correct or not the open yin 63 00:06:59,650 --> 00:07:04,569 we're giving is called an unmodified opinion you could think of it like a 64 00:07:03,039 --> 00:07:09,129 clean opinion so this is the one that you want to have one thing that you want 65 00:07:07,449 --> 00:07:15,279 to keep in mind is the opinion we're giving is on what we call the regulatory 66 00:07:12,159 --> 00:07:19,960 basis so not not the basis of accounting that large cities use generally accepted 67 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:25,210 accounting principles but the the basis of accounting that the state auditor has 68 00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:29,469 prepared for small cities to use there's quite a few differences between the two 69 00:07:26,879 --> 00:07:37,060 the one that you're using is almost like the cash basis so it's cash in cash out 70 00:07:33,100 --> 00:07:41,210 the threshold for that is cities under 2500 can use the small basis of 71 00:07:39,980 --> 00:07:45,650 accounting and I know you've been thinking about moving to the accrual 72 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,560 basis it's something that we've kind of still got in the back of our heads we 73 00:07:47,450 --> 00:07:53,000 haven't really pulled the trigger on anything yet we're kind of waiting out a 74 00:07:50,330 --> 00:07:57,710 few things here and there but that's kind of what the auditor's report 75 00:07:54,320 --> 00:08:06,770 basically says let's look at some numbers we're going to go to the next 76 00:07:58,850 --> 00:08:10,430 page so this page is a budget to actual for the general fund so the general fund 77 00:08:08,510 --> 00:08:14,210 is worth the bulk of your day to day operations happen the way I've got it 78 00:08:12,919 --> 00:08:18,740 laid out is we've got our revenues on top expenditure is kind of on the bottom 79 00:08:16,490 --> 00:08:25,100 so if we look at total revenues for the year they came in at 2 million 54,000 80 00:08:21,590 --> 00:08:29,960 you budgeted for 1 million 977 so you're actually about 76,000 dollars above 81 00:08:27,590 --> 00:08:35,510 budget on revenues and if we look at what's going on in the detail there to 82 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:39,110 kind of pinpoint where it's off special assessments are up a little bit from 83 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:43,180 what you planned on the biggest change is the line us as intergovernmental so 84 00:08:41,030 --> 00:08:50,120 if you look at that intergovernmental revenues are 73,000 over budget and what 85 00:08:47,210 --> 00:08:54,360 that is is small cities assistance grants that most cities have got this 86 00:08:52,400 --> 00:09:01,410 year from the stage on the expense side of things expenses 87 00:08:57,810 --> 00:09:07,140 came in at 1.8 million you plan for just about two million 1 million 977 so 88 00:09:04,050 --> 00:09:12,690 you're about 114,000 below budget on expenses and if we look at the lines 89 00:09:10,709 --> 00:09:21,570 that maybe stand out there general government's quite a bit below budget at 90 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:25,339 below at 283,000 transfers oh it's actually quite a bit above budget you 91 00:09:23,339 --> 00:09:32,420 did a large transfer to the capital revolving capital market overall your 92 00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:39,149 cash balance in this fund increased 191,000 you plan you actually plan for 93 00:09:36,390 --> 00:09:45,120 breakeven ending cash is a little over a million dollars at 1 million 98,000 had 94 00:09:43,470 --> 00:09:49,380 a nice increases here you actually have a policy on what you want that target 95 00:09:47,070 --> 00:09:54,829 number to be your policy is forty to forty-five percent of your budget 96 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:59,850 expenditures you're a little above that okay let's move on we're going to look 97 00:09:57,959 --> 00:10:03,810 at debt service and revolve in capital here debt service is one of those funds 98 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:07,050 were there's really not a whole lot to say about it because it's all pretty 99 00:10:05,339 --> 00:10:11,699 much set up ahead of time when you issue your debt so you've got your property 100 00:10:09,209 --> 00:10:15,360 taxes and your special assessment revenue coming in you've made your debt 101 00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:21,480 principal and interest payments as you should have that fun ends the year of 102 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:26,850 the cash balance of 221,000 it's not on this page but you have one bond left at 103 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:30,899 one point nine million dollars revolving capital the biggest activity 104 00:10:29,459 --> 00:10:34,980 here is that you have that large transferring from the general fund 105 00:10:32,509 --> 00:10:40,500 otherwise we got fifty three thousand dollars of other revenues we spend sixty 106 00:10:37,769 --> 00:10:51,800 seven thousand there this fund increased cash by 339 thousand ending cash is 107 00:10:44,279 --> 00:10:51,800 about a million in half okay 108 00:10:51,930 --> 00:10:57,089 the next page is going to be the remainder of what we call your 109 00:10:55,529 --> 00:11:02,460 governmental funds and so we've got the cemetery fund we've got the ED cemetery 110 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:08,610 fund you had receipts of 35 thousand dollars about half of that was charges 111 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:14,940 you have expenditures of fourteen thousand dollars so this fund increase 112 00:11:12,180 --> 00:11:21,540 cash by 20,000 ending cash in this fund is ninety-five thousand dollars EDA fund 113 00:11:19,260 --> 00:11:30,510 really minimal activity this year in the EDA fund ending cash is five thousand 114 00:11:24,899 --> 00:11:34,770 seven hundred dollars okay this next page is a snapshot of your sewer fund so 115 00:11:33,540 --> 00:11:39,060 the sewer fund gets a little bit different format than the governmental 116 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:43,140 funds because it's almost run like a like a small business within the city 117 00:11:40,980 --> 00:11:50,520 you can think about it it's got more of a focus on operating profitability let's 118 00:11:47,070 --> 00:11:57,029 focus on just making sure your your budget zeroes out at the end so if we 119 00:11:53,430 --> 00:12:00,980 look at the sewer fund receipts came in at three hundred seventy three thousand 120 00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:06,000 dollars that's your service charges operating expenses so this would be envy 121 00:12:03,330 --> 00:12:10,110 your payroll chemicals whatever else you need we're two hundred twenty two 122 00:12:08,130 --> 00:12:13,529 thousand dollars you've got operating income of one hundred fifty one thousand 123 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,270 dollars that's good because you want that number to be positive and you're 124 00:12:14,970 --> 00:12:22,680 you're well into the positive there you've got some non operating items 125 00:12:19,860 --> 00:12:28,920 mostly hook up fees some special assessments that totals 125,000 from 126 00:12:27,390 --> 00:12:34,200 there we spent a little bit of money on capital outlay or some capital assets 127 00:12:30,990 --> 00:12:39,940 this fund at the end of everything cash balance increased $250,000 128 00:12:37,900 --> 00:12:51,460 at the end of the year this fund has three million 184,000 so this fund also 129 00:12:45,070 --> 00:12:54,820 has a pretty nice fund balance that was really corrected are there any questions 130 00:12:53,200 --> 00:13:03,460 on the numbers that I went through it all okay let's talk a little bit about 131 00:13:01,350 --> 00:13:08,380 how the city is doing in terms of compliance so every year as a part of 132 00:13:06,670 --> 00:13:11,380 the audit we look at your internal controls and you've heard this probably 133 00:13:10,270 --> 00:13:15,850 every year that you've been getting it out of her probably quite a while I like 134 00:13:14,140 --> 00:13:19,720 you've got a lack of segregation of duties in your accounting function so 135 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:25,000 what that means is that you've you've only got a couple staff members the 136 00:13:23,590 --> 00:13:28,390 accounting functions are handled by a few different staff members so the risk 137 00:13:26,830 --> 00:13:33,070 there is that one person is handling multiple functions but you do a pretty 138 00:13:30,940 --> 00:13:38,200 good job of mitigating that you look at bills that kind of thing material audit 139 00:13:36,250 --> 00:13:43,210 adjustments is another thing we did so if you think back to that opinion that I 140 00:13:40,540 --> 00:13:49,660 talked about that clean opinion when we go into an audit we tip you typically 141 00:13:45,550 --> 00:13:54,040 don't see a lot of bad opinions because if we see something that needs to be 142 00:13:51,070 --> 00:13:58,050 fixed we're going to fix it for you this is where we're saying that we've made 143 00:13:55,270 --> 00:14:03,100 some fixes for you okay third thing we have here is that we've 144 00:14:00,190 --> 00:14:07,960 written your financials for you other thing that we report on during the audit 145 00:14:05,110 --> 00:14:16,420 is we do some tests for compliance with Minnesota Statutes no findings there 146 00:14:10,570 --> 00:14:21,670 everything looked good okay the next two pages talk maybe a little bit more about 147 00:14:18,850 --> 00:14:26,200 how did the audit itself goal vs of how is the city doing financially so these 148 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:31,030 this these are some communications that are required we have to go through every 149 00:14:27,970 --> 00:14:35,430 year it talks about things like do we have any issues with your accounting 150 00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:40,140 policies do we have any issues with adopting new accounting standards do we 151 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:44,290 have any disagreements with management did we come across any weird 152 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:48,550 transactions for unusual transactions nothing with that everything looked 153 00:14:46,150 --> 00:14:52,450 really good there it talks about uncorrect admit statements so what that 154 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:56,080 would mean is if we're going through the audit we see something wrong it's pretty 155 00:14:54,100 --> 00:15:01,650 small we can still give that clean opinion and not correct it we actually 156 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:06,490 don't have anything like that no disagreements with management don't 157 00:15:04,690 --> 00:15:10,110 really know significant issues or difficulties everything went really well 158 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:22,010 any questions questions for the auditor yeah 159 00:15:18,370 --> 00:15:29,720 councilman Maroni I do not have an image map well just an observation and I found 160 00:15:24,860 --> 00:15:37,730 so for Moses my Ethier and every year we kind of talked about moving into the 161 00:15:32,590 --> 00:15:40,240 modified accrual when is that going to happen job 162 00:15:45,910 --> 00:15:49,230 there's some issues 163 00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:03,610 we're busy and so make it back to us after the only reason I keep bringing it 164 00:16:01,509 --> 00:16:09,850 up is personally I think it gives a clear picture as to where we're at at 165 00:16:06,850 --> 00:16:18,940 any given time during the fiscal year and you know I would really encourage 166 00:16:14,579 --> 00:16:23,290 the council to pursue that and you know I'd like to think that perhaps next year 167 00:16:20,500 --> 00:16:28,000 the report would indicate that one's being implemented in that process is 168 00:16:25,449 --> 00:16:34,690 being implemented so the only other thing I'd say is it's always nice to see 169 00:16:30,970 --> 00:16:40,660 that kind of a audit report I think it indicates that this city is being 170 00:16:36,940 --> 00:16:46,750 fiscally managed very well I think the use of the taxpayers you know the funds 171 00:16:43,990 --> 00:16:53,560 that we derive in the taxpayers are being spent appropriately people may 172 00:16:52,120 --> 00:17:00,490 think well how come you got such a big fund balance for example in that sewer 173 00:16:56,889 --> 00:17:04,449 fund and the thing that we have to keep reminding folks is is that one of these 174 00:17:03,130 --> 00:17:10,990 days we're going to be on the hook for some major expenditures and that fund is 175 00:17:09,010 --> 00:17:19,030 going to be there in order to cover that infrastructure so you know that's good I 176 00:17:14,709 --> 00:17:25,950 think it's again the the staff is to be commended for their work jining 177 00:17:21,730 --> 00:17:34,640 especially as I noted in Joe's right up it is a great asset to this community I 178 00:17:30,830 --> 00:17:44,790 am no on your comment comes my way of the Bakken I would just echo councilman 179 00:17:39,810 --> 00:17:47,490 Schmitz I do have one question in the letter you talked about during the 180 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:53,640 course of the engagement we propose material otter adjustments I think you 181 00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:58,560 alluded to it what in specific things that you make or was it just several 182 00:17:56,610 --> 00:18:02,370 real small things they're rigid itemize them yeah there was a few small just 183 00:18:00,900 --> 00:18:07,860 kind of tweaks moving things between accounts probably the biggest was 184 00:18:05,550 --> 00:18:11,100 recording your investment income so their investment the investment and 185 00:18:09,390 --> 00:18:15,330 comments on your books hadn't changed from last year and so what we've what we 186 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:20,690 did was we went in we adjust them to you the market value that was probably the 187 00:18:17,340 --> 00:18:20,690 biggest okay 188 00:18:25,549 --> 00:18:38,389 right okay okay and again I would echo a lot of foam but Otto had said I will 189 00:18:36,019 --> 00:18:43,429 have to say that the last several years that we've been working with the slender 190 00:18:41,269 --> 00:18:49,039 winner as has been absolutely marvelous and it's getting now to be when the 191 00:18:46,100 --> 00:18:56,539 audit comes in things go very smoothly they're in there out all the questions 192 00:18:51,950 --> 00:19:02,330 are answered so I applaud not only janay and the entire staff you know for 193 00:18:59,869 --> 00:19:08,659 preparing for it but for working with your auditors and your people so so well 194 00:19:05,749 --> 00:19:15,169 so thank you very much Thank You mayor I would move that we accept a 2015 audit 195 00:19:11,919 --> 00:19:24,649 their second to that motion all those in favor of steps know any more discussion 196 00:19:16,999 --> 00:19:34,149 I'm sorry Ronie no holes in favor of accepting the 2015 audit thank you very 197 00:19:31,940 --> 00:19:34,149 much 198 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:52,940 next order of business is ngpa NJ PA representative the National joint powers 199 00:19:47,690 --> 00:20:00,110 Association as seems like they put everybody on the board and we have an 200 00:19:55,730 --> 00:20:05,120 opening where we can have a member and in the past we've looked for 201 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:11,150 representatives and nobody wants to volunteer I guess this time is as 202 00:20:08,150 --> 00:20:20,330 anybody else would like to volunteer to be on the NJ PA board if nobody else 203 00:20:16,580 --> 00:20:25,940 wants I'll take that position as I am working with the region 5 and region 204 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:31,510 five works very closely with in jp-a so let's just go right on with what I'm 205 00:20:29,030 --> 00:20:36,920 already doing so put me down for the volunteer on that if anybody's really 206 00:20:34,220 --> 00:20:40,340 interested in reading through the bylaws I suppose I could read it line by line 207 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:50,390 but since there's a basketball game tonight I think we'll pass do we need a 208 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:54,350 motion Joel for if you'd like if you have why did you make one okay I'll both 209 00:20:51,950 --> 00:21:01,120 the two we appoint our merit observe on the NJ PA type of gun holes in paper any 210 00:20:58,370 --> 00:21:10,460 discussion all those in favor that's me okay next item is the no-fault sewer 211 00:21:05,570 --> 00:21:17,240 backup coverage the the memo basically states that we've had a couple backups 212 00:21:12,170 --> 00:21:22,850 in the past few years and they were not caused by anything that we did one was 213 00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:25,480 caused by towels got flushed down the drain 214 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:36,110 clogging the impellers of the lift pump and the other one was caused by the 215 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:46,940 sewer line freezing so what looked into is League of Minnesota cities has a 216 00:21:39,050 --> 00:21:52,610 no-fault sewer backup coverage the the cost of this is actually relatively 217 00:21:48,980 --> 00:21:58,940 minimal and we have more than enough money in the sewer fund to pay for this 218 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:06,740 and it would give the city added protection we haven't had this insurance 219 00:22:04,220 --> 00:22:16,450 before and so I think it's probably a good thing to do if we want to do it we 220 00:22:13,340 --> 00:22:23,540 have the options here the various amounts for coverage and there's a 221 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:35,450 formula that they go through with to how they come up with the the premium Sunnis 222 00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:44,870 so we have a resolution 1610 where we would set the insurance coverage that we 223 00:22:41,930 --> 00:22:50,660 would like to purchase at this point I'll just take some discussion as to do 224 00:22:48,860 --> 00:22:55,640 we think we should do this and do you think what would be the recommended 225 00:22:52,670 --> 00:23:03,500 amount start for you councilman I have some questions on it first off on 226 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:08,900 an annual policy 7 or 53 connections if we add 5 throughout the year are we 227 00:23:06,490 --> 00:23:15,110 adjusting that as we go or to just come up on the next renewal comes up with an 228 00:23:10,790 --> 00:23:22,070 extra normal okay and it's time eluded you know this is to protect the city or 229 00:23:17,150 --> 00:23:28,250 the city users because correct me from wrong if something happens and we you 230 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:31,670 know I toggles back up are we liable at that pointer is insurance going to be 231 00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:35,630 kicking in insane old that we're not liable we're covering insurance they're 232 00:23:33,830 --> 00:23:40,520 saying that there's no fault they will cover damages up to that amount and 233 00:23:37,970 --> 00:23:47,630 that's after the homeowners policy insurance has kicked in as well okay and 234 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:52,670 my third question I had was in the resolution that it states that the 235 00:23:49,910 --> 00:24:01,070 maximum the city would reimburse as X dollar per building per year is it is it 236 00:23:57,410 --> 00:24:06,300 really per year or per instance per year yeah so something happened two times in 237 00:24:05,060 --> 00:24:09,050 a year wouldn't be going 238 00:24:12,739 --> 00:24:21,389 another question can have at this time questions cosmic now so as I understand 239 00:24:19,019 --> 00:24:27,239 it the for example that forty thousand dollars that's per incident or per year 240 00:24:24,059 --> 00:24:35,700 per year per building per year per building so if if let's say they had two 241 00:24:34,019 --> 00:24:41,309 incidents and it amounted to thirty-eight thousand dollars total and 242 00:24:39,179 --> 00:24:54,359 the insurance would cover it I believe so many of the portion dr. Lee 243 00:24:51,269 --> 00:24:58,619 just an observation yeah it's an indemnification for the city and 244 00:24:55,979 --> 00:25:04,979 empathize the city protects us protects the city and the money so with that I 245 00:25:02,639 --> 00:25:11,759 will prepare to make a motion move resolution 610 for the full amount forty 246 00:25:08,489 --> 00:25:19,399 thousand dollars okay is there a second to that motion further discussion the 247 00:25:16,289 --> 00:25:19,399 boggin in also 248 00:25:20,120 --> 00:25:28,350 it's on the first page of the resolution Joe that was comfortable and not a 249 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:34,290 condition not from a condition in a private line yes where is the private 250 00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:39,480 the private language in your house or from your house to the main server it's 251 00:25:37,170 --> 00:25:44,810 from those to the main so that's privately that's correct probably under 252 00:25:41,610 --> 00:25:44,810 your front lawn yes 253 00:25:47,750 --> 00:25:55,650 any further discussion kassam intricate no problem No all those in favor of the 254 00:25:53,760 --> 00:26:04,890 suit and no fault sewer backup coverage say aye aye opposed romola so order the 255 00:26:01,370 --> 00:26:12,510 alcohol super coverage next item business he is roads feasibility study 256 00:26:09,570 --> 00:26:18,510 Oh other council members I'm sorry council Bakken

for the white bird 6th edition we're 268 00:27:38,500 --> 00:27:44,980 starting this is for the 2017 construction cycle so that we're 269 00:27:43,779 --> 00:27:49,690 starting a little bit early on this which is good so we can actually get 270 00:27:47,230 --> 00:27:55,659 some walk downs and some surveying done without having to traipse through snow 271 00:27:51,820 --> 00:28:02,169 so this will be a good The Rose committee has recommended the paving in 272 00:27:59,980 --> 00:28:09,210 the white birch 6 edition which include Navajo trail pima circle Zuni circle 273 00:28:05,139 -->

sitting in it in its 279 00:28:42,340 --> 00:28:53,250 question eventually pave all the streets in the city one thing Joe do we have an 280 00:28:50,380 --> 00:28:58,450 actual count as to how many Lots intuitive we have any lots that are tax 281 00:28:56,230 --> 00:29:03,940 forfeit that would I don't believe we have any tax forfeit lots Joe did an 282 00:29:00,429 --> 00:29:09,429 inventory about Alfie broaden it very one so I so these the assessment would 283 00:29:07,510 --> 00:29:13,510 be spread through all of the locks and that'd be spread through all the Lots 284 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:17,590 that's correct okay just wanted okay just that clarification even with a tax 285 00:29:15,909 --> 00:29:22,020 barford live we assess that lot eventually weren't sold to get paid yeah 286 00:29:22,049 --> 00:29:29,710 it just that it gets to be kind of problematic if you have a whole bunch of 287 00:29:26,049 --> 00:29:33,100 them yes it does we currently have about ninety-five thousand dollars worth of 288 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:36,909 assessments sitting at the tax for february's you know I don't think we 289 00:29:34,690 --> 00:29:39,040 need any more help trying to do

we're at we got a favorable bits out for the projects 294 00:30:05,590 --> 00:30:13,690 we've done this years since we got an early start so hopefully we're going to 295 00:30:09,310 --> 00:30:21,880 see that okay all those in favor of the resolution 1609 to order the feasibility 296 00:30:16,630 --> 00:30:27,430 say I was opposed the feasibility study is so ordered and oh we have a proposal 297

the nothing performing 303 00:31:03,610 --> 00:31:20,170 the feasibility study for the 2017 paving I suppose next item business is 304 00:31:14,410 --> 00:31:28,300 the audit transfer or out of the audit we have the usual shifting around of 305 00:31:23,860 --> 00:31:34,840 funds oh and if you're really interested we can go through them in detail but the 306 00:31:31,510 --> 00:31:40,710 their departed in the audit report as to what goes where so resolution 1608 307 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:47,880 carries out those transfers of funds entertain a motion for approval of 69 308 00:31:43,300 --> 00:31:54,400 mobile second who's the second discussion any discussion not me 309 00:31:51,040 --> 00:32:02,800 discussion all in favor of resolution 1608 highness next item of business is 310 00:31:59,710 --> 00:32:10,600 the Pequot Lakes fire contract pequot has provided us the 2016-2017 fire 311 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:15,730 contract it's for eighty three thousand seven hundred dollars and thirty cents 312 00:32:12,390 --> 00:32:20,830 couldn't round it off last year the contract was seventy six thousand twenty 313 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:28,570 seven dollars and sixty-six cents which is an increase of 7670 to dot 64 cents 314 00:32:25,230 --> 00:32:34,540 there are obviously reasons for that and part of it has to do with the new 315 00:32:32,350 --> 00:32:41,680 equipment that's purchased by through slot lakes I'll consider a motion to 316 00:32:39,340 --> 00:32:47,270 approve the contract and then we'll have some discussion so I'll move the 317 00:32:45,220 --> 00:32:53,750 discussion start with you constable and I have known Counsell Williams 318 00:32:50,200 --> 00:33:03,290 calcinha fit the chief is here your Sochi for you I don't know if he has any 319 00:32:59,330 --> 00:33:08,750 comments or observations but before the meeting started I asked him about the 320 00:33:05,060 --> 00:33:14,240 change in our classification as far as insurance purposes and that that has 321 00:33:10,670 --> 00:33:20,080 changed it changed last year of him so we are now in a better classification as 322 00:33:17,300 --> 00:33:26,110 far as homeowners insurance in consequently if you have homeowners in 323 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:31,790 church I assume just what everybody does you should be getting an indication that 324 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:36,620 your rates are less or lower than what they were before that went into effect 325 00:33:34,210 --> 00:33:44,570 yeah that's something I'm sure the echo would be highlighting in the report 326 00:33:40,940 --> 00:33:49,370 ability the only other thing i have is i beg i think when you're still on the 327 00:33:47,570 --> 00:33:55,160 council I brought up the fact that I'd like to see on the side of all of the 328 00:33:51,950 --> 00:34:00,560 equipment including that brand new fancy a vehicle you got out there where it 329 00:33:58,370 --> 00:34:03,640 should say breezy point pequot lakes fire to get hurt 330 00:34:06,270 --> 00:34:12,340 well I always say that because it's based on the amount that's paid into the 331 00:34:10,570 --> 00:34:22,000 contract I think we'd be more than be quite correct oh they are wonderful just 332 00:34:18,790 --> 00:34:27,520 change your names every year forget we got to be on a basketball yeah 333 00:34:24,149 --> 00:34:31,510 councilman world oh nothing
