anyway, are we? So that they get it
figured out. Yeah. Let us know. I'm

39
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:58,920
come up again a little further down the
the agenda.

40
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,200
Yes.

41
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,519

43
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:21,440
one I added in here is um
Becky Beasley, Rita Se and I went

44
00:04:16,479 --> 00:04:29,600
through the police building um and
it couple weeks ago and it

45
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:37,199
was going to check on finding a company
to come in and clean it out.

46
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:40,000
» Well, uh Terry is I spoke with Terry
Mitchum.

47
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:45,040
» Yeah. the chief and he's going to go in
and get his stuff cleaned out. It may

48
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:49,919
take him a month because this is
vacation time and everything. And I'm

49
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:56,479
going to go up I've been meaning to the
last couple weeks and look at that room

50
00:04:52,880 --> 00:05:01,680
that's got everything and see what would
be the best way to get that cleaned up.

51
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:06,800
I don't know if it's from It's not one
department, it's from and I've even

52
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:11,680
heard the fire department has stuff in
there. So I don't know if anybody wants

53
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:18,479
to keep anything. I don't know. So I
will try to find out that.

54
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:24,080
» Wonderful. Thank you.
I guess there's still interest in

55
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:28,400
keeping it as a yes.
>> Town building and

56
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,680
» um finding good uses.
>> Yes.

57
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:34,960
» For it.
>> I have a few thoughts on that. I was

58
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:44,320
going to send it to the comprehensive.
>> Yeah. And I'll throw out that on the um

59
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:49,600
there's some unclear about where the
property lines are all there. Uh but

60
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:55,680
from the
from the county GIS and the auditor

61
00:05:53,039 --> 00:06:02,720
information they have in there that it's
both 234 Main Street, which is the town

62
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:08,479
police building, former town building,
uh but three or 632

63
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:14,960
where Main Street
is in there, right?

64
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:18,479
» That is also listed in our addresses.
So,

65
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:22,680
» it it's really it's two buildings, but
it's actually kind of one building.

66
00:06:23,199 --> 00:06:28,800
» Yeah,
>> they do. And the upstairs

67
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:36,000
of
the 632 building can only be accessed

68
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:39,120
from the 634 building.
>> You know, a lot of them downtown are

69
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:42,080
kind of like that.
>> Yeah. That's

70
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:47,360
» the upstairs
over more than one building.

71
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:50,080
» Yeah. Anyway, got a lot of buildings.
>> Yeah. The valley house before they redid

72
00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:54,639
it was like a
>> Oh, yeah.

73
00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:58,560
How far does the property line go the
other way?

74
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:05,440
» Goes all the way to the alley. It's 165
ft deep and 35 ft wide. And the

75
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:11,039
» is the town is that whole parking lot
towns in between the police old police

76
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:13,120
station and Rosenberg?
>> I believe so.

77
00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:15,680
» Yeah,
>> that's what we believe.

78
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:22,199
» Yes.
>> And seventh parking and back.

79
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,199
» Yeah. Yeah.

80
00:07:23,039 --> 00:07:28,599
All right. And of course, parking out
front.

81
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:35,280
» It's considered one partial building in
the parking lot.

82
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:40,080
» I don't know about that if it's one or
two parcels.

83
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:44,960
» It's not completely clear either from
the county GIS because it

84
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:48,639
» and the county GIS is nothing to brag
about.

85
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:53,120
» Well, right. It it does have like the
property report from the auditor's

86
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:58,720
office in there that has some more
detail, but there may be some more

87
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:02,720
pieces in there that the town owns is
what I'm guessing.

88
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:06,560
» Yeah. And the canal owns some of those
parking spaces, too. The canal trail

89
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:13,360
» in the back.
>> Okay.

90
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:21,199
» Yeah. Yep.
All right. um had an item on here for

91
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:27,919
ready 2.0 and I don't know that anyone I
know Rita was delving into that some if

92
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:31,960
anyone else has any information or
anything that should be shared.

93
00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:42,080
So I I just have a quick question
if it's not pertinent and just tell me

94
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:45,920
to shut up and I will
now I was just curious. I've been

95
00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:50,160
thinking about this because I always see
money going to the ready group and to

96
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,800
the weekly group and blah blah blah.
These see I mean we pay these people a

97
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,959
ton of money.
>> We don't pay ready. Ready helps us. We

98
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:01,120
don't pay ready.
>> Oh, okay. Okay. So, we don't pay them.

99
00:08:59,519 --> 00:09:06,080
It's just weekly.
>> Yeah. Now, the county pays ready. It's

100
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:10,000
two different things.
>> Oh. Oh, maybe that's what I meant.

101
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:15,760
» I think so. People get confused.
>> Yeah. So, do they ever send put those

102
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:23,519
out for bid to make sure that what we're
paying them per hour or whatever is

103
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:27,279
» usually it's just contracts are renewed.
>> Oh, gotcha. And who manages that per se?

104
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,560
Does that
>> Who manages what?

105
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:35,200
» This the
group and the

106
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:38,320
» Oh, the Rei Group is a is a CPA firm out
of Indie.

107
00:09:36,959 --> 00:09:41,920
» Sure. Where
>> somewhere like that. Okay. which we

108
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,839
don't deal with them.
>> We don't deal with the re

109
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,040
» we don't do though.
>> No, that's Kim.

110
00:09:44,959 --> 00:09:52,480
» Yeah. I'm just curious. It's like
>> um the um the Wheatly Group though uh we

111
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,839
manage them.
>> Oh, okay.

112
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:58,959
» Uh we approved an hourly not exceed
$10,000

113
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:04,560
uh consulting agreement with them
earlier this year uh to do

114
00:10:01,839 --> 00:10:11,600
» that's not per instance. It's per year
$10,000.

115
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:13,920
That is their limit for the year.
>> Yes.

116
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:17,920
» And if we need them to do something that
goes over that, we have to come to an

117
00:10:16,079 --> 00:10:21,120
agreement on it.
>> Okay. Gotcha. So it's just 10,000 a

118
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,399
year.
>> It's sort of like uh attorneys

119
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,600
» not to exceed.
>> Yeah. It's like attorneyship.

120
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,600
» Yeah. So
>> Okay. Sorry.

121
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:36,959
» Andrew Bosn has provided some consulting
question when the conversation came

122
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:42,640
about about acquiring or bidding
trying to purchase property. Um got

00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:45,839
legal advice on that as well as weekly
group advice.

» Okay, gotcha.
>> Yeah, because

00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:29,760
Actually, let's go down to item H.
That's our next one that involves

pay
Main Street $24,000

134
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:47,040
and the resolution goes like this.
Whereas one of the objectives of

135
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:50,640
Brookville redevelopment commission is
to invest and fund economic development.

136
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:55,760
Whereas the town of Brookville has
requested Brook Redevelopment Commission

137
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:59,600
for services provided by Main Street
Brookville Inc. related to business

138
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:04,000
attraction and retention. Whereas the
town of Brookville has budgeted and made

139
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:08,720
distribution to Main Street Brookville
Inc. the sum of $24,000.

00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:48,240
in the next board meeting. We were
hoping to but made more

159
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:53,399
more
adjustments to form recently.

160
00:13:53,440 --> 00:14:01,680
Okay. There are no invoices tonight
and the next meeting would be August

161
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:06,800
25th.
Are there any other item

162
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:15,600
you wants to raise?
>> We've been talked about seven at all.

163
00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:18,160
I guess I I did not um Does anybody have
an update on the comprehensive plan

164
00:14:17,279 --> 00:14:25,839
process?
>> Uh we had stakeholders come in one day

165
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:31,360
last week. It was very good. Uh the
people that came from structure point.

166
00:14:28,639 --> 00:14:35,600
They were very happy with with what they
found out and the people that they

167
00:14:32,959 --> 00:14:39,839
talked to. And I believe we're going to
have some more of that. I'm not sure

168
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:43,279
when, but I believe there's going to be
more stakeholders come to speak.

169
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,920
» Yeah, I was on the stakeholders thing,
but like I said, I was

170
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:50,079
» think
we understood that.

171
00:14:46,959 --> 00:14:54,800
» Yeah, I um had all my notes together for
my ideas, but I didn't know if they

172
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:57,839
wanted to wait until there's a
rescheduled one for people that didn't

173
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:02,720
make it to that one.
>> You'll have to ask Rita, but I think

174
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:09,360
we're having another session that
>> I got some darn good ideas on

175
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:13,880
» Good deal. Well, you need them.

» Yeah. Okay.
>> Might be outside of our jurisdiction.

177
00:15:21,839 --> 00:15:31,360
» So, they have there's I understand that
there's two sets or two groups on this.

178
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:35,199
the the the one that just met last week
which is called the

179
00:15:33,199 --> 00:15:38,160
» stakeholders and then the other one is
>> is a steering committee

180
00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:43,120
» steering committee and their
responsibility is looking at all of the

181
00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:47,199
data that the stakeholders bring and
then prioritizing how we want to

182
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:50,079
» along with their own ideas.
>> Yeah. Yeah.

183
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,639
» And I think there are more inputs. I
think it's like public meetings.

184
00:15:51,759 --> 00:15:56,399
» Yes.
>> To get broader
