Madam Chief, I

50
00:01:09,868 --> 00:01:10,927
propose to adopt the

51
00:01:10,927 --> 00:01:11,893

00:01:11,893 --> 00:01:12,796

54

55
00:01:14,354 --> 00:01:15,273
The motion was made by

56
00:01:15,273 --> 00:01:16,100

I". "

60
00:01:19,643 --> 00:01:20,580
Against" - "no".

61
00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:22,428
The proposal is accepted. Are

62
00:01:22,428 --> 00:01:23,879
there any council

63
00:01:23,879 --> 00:01:26,097
or commission reports? Kate,

64
00:01:26,097 --> 00:01:28,647
let me know.

65
00:01:28,647 --> 00:01:34,927
Hmm, yes, PR AS. I'm not

66
00:01:34,927 --> 00:01:36,076
sure what we

67
00:01:36,076 --> 00:01:37,609
call ourselves now,

68
00:01:37,609 --> 00:01:39,243
previously LSEC. Hmm, John

69
00:01:39,243 --> 00:01:40,674
can correct me

70
00:01:40,674 --> 00:01:43,453
if I'm wrong. We

71
00:01:43,453 --> 00:01:44,874
met last

72
00:01:44,874 --> 00:01:46,032
week, and, um, there were

73
00:01:46,032 --> 00:01:47,415
some updates, um,

74
00:01:47,415 --> 00:01:50,153
from John and me. You

75
00:01:50,153 --> 00:01:51,490
know them all because

76
00:01:51,490 --> 00:01:52,546
they all relate to

77
00:01:52,546 --> 00:01:53,461
things that, um,

78
00:01:53,461 --> 00:01:55,414
happen. Hmm, but

79
00:01:55,414 --> 00:01:56,790
I think the most important thing

80
00:01:56,790 --> 00:01:57,919
we did at

81
00:01:57,919 --> 00:01:58,907
our meeting

82
00:01:58,907 --> 00:02:00,319
last week was that

83
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:01,660
we adopted a new

84
00:02:01,660 --> 00:02:02,709
charter.

85
00:02:02,709 --> 00:02:05,672
Oh, okay. Good. Anything

86
00:02:05,672 --> 00:02:06,654
specific that

87
00:02:06,654 --> 00:02:08,477
stood out?

88
00:02:08,477 --> 00:02:09,511
No, mostly

89
00:02:09,511 --> 00:02:10,866
just an update because it's

90
00:02:10,866 --> 00:02:12,358
been a while.

91
00:02:12,358 --> 00:02:14,738
Good. Thank you. Are there any

92
00:02:14,738 --> 00:02:15,320

93
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:15,931

202
00:04:47,218 --> 00:04:48,565
replace the

203
00:04:48,565 --> 00:04:49,965
Toro LTC satellite system. The

204
00:04:49,965 --> 00:04:51,252
LTC system is obsolete and will no longer

205
00:04:51,282 --> 00:04:52,390
be supported

206
00:04:52,390 --> 00:04:53,528
for service

207
00:04:53,528 --> 00:04:54,347
and parts.

208
00:04:54,347 --> 00:04:54,948
Toro

209
00:04:54,948 --> 00:04:55,686
recommended

210
00:04:55,686 --> 00:04:56,397
replacing it

211
00:04:56,397 --> 00:04:57,381
as soon as possible to

212
00:04:57,381 --> 00:04:58,693
eliminate any

213
00:04:58,720 --> 00:04:59,649
service and

214
00:04:59,649 --> 00:05:00,435
support interruptions. These

215
00:05:00,435 --> 00:05:01,568
satellite units

216
00:05:01,568 --> 00:05:02,334
control

217
00:05:02,334 --> 00:05:03,133
approximately 1,500

218
00:05:03,133 --> 00:05:04,432
sprinkler heads

219
00:05:04,432 --> 00:05:05,531
. The irrigation system

220
00:05:05,531 --> 00:05:06,375
ensures that we

221
00:05:06,375 --> 00:05:07,582
provide a great

222
00:05:07,582 --> 00:05:08,457
lawn for our

223
00:05:08,457 --> 00:05:09,531
customers. Pleasant Run

224
00:05:09,531 --> 00:05:10,807
serves over 200

225
00:05:10,807 --> 00:05:12,191
acres of land, all of which is

226
00:05:12,191 --> 00:05:13,255
irrigated by this

227
00:05:13,255 --> 00:05:14,339
system. This new

228
00:05:14,339 --> 00:05:14,911
technology

229
00:05:14,911 --> 00:05:15,837
will ensure less

230
00:05:15,837 --> 00:05:16,790
loss in

231
00:05:16,790 --> 00:05:17,226
water distribution for

232
00:05:17,226 --> 00:05:18,152
maintenance and more

233
00:05:18,152 --> 00:05:18,779
efficient

234
00:05:18,779 --> 00:05:19,669
water supply.

235
00:05:19,669 --> 00:05:20,749
In addition to the need to

236
00:05:20,749 --> 00:05:21,619
repair old,

237
00:05:21,619 --> 00:05:22,700
outdated parts

238
00:05:22,700 --> 00:05:24,501
and equipment,

239
00:05:24,531 --> 00:05:25,221
the likelihood of

240
00:05:25,221 --> 00:05:26,567
lawn damage is also reduced.

241
00:05:26,567 --> 00:05:27,904
Let me see. And

242
00:05:27,904 --> 00:05:28,709
also, let me

243
00:05:28,709 --> 00:05:30,229
see. The

244
00:05:30,229 --> 00:05:31,637
2027 budget will be amended

245
00:05:31,637 --> 00:05:32,816
to reflect this

246
00:05:32,816 --> 00:05:33,539
purchase of

247
00:05:33,539 --> 00:05:35,023
capital machinery and

248
00:05:35,023 --> 00:05:36,749
equipment. You see,

249
00:05:36,749 --> 00:05:38,085
this is Director of the Fever, do you

250
00:05:38,085 --> 00:05:39,603
want to add anything?

251
00:05:39,603 --> 00:05:40,825
Uh, just wanted to

252
00:05:40,825 --> 00:05:42,082
add that if it

253
00:05:42,082 --> 00:05:43,169
is approved, it will

254
00:05:43,169 --> 00:05:44,494
be the first of two RBAs

255
00:05:44,494 --> 00:05:45,259
. The second RBA

256
00:05:45,259 --> 00:05:46,373
is for

257
00:05:46,373 --> 00:05:47,754
hardware. And we will

258
00:05:47,754 --> 00:05:48,967
issue an RFP, if

259
00:05:48,967 --> 00:05:50,148
approved,

260
00:05:50,148 --> 00:05:50,804
to find

261
00:05:50,804 --> 00:05:52,017
a vendor who will

262
00:05:52,017 --> 00:05:53,066
actually do

263
00:05:53,066 --> 00:05:54,149
the installation to

264
00:05:54,149 --> 00:05:55,605
do the actual work.

265
00:05:55,605 --> 00:05:56,766
So you will see

266
00:05:56,766 --> 00:05:57,552
another RBA

267
00:05:57,552 --> 00:05:58,850
offering a much

268
00:05:58,850 --> 00:05:59,636
smaller amount in

269
00:05:59,636 --> 00:06:00,900
the future for its

270
00:06:00,900 --> 00:06:02,803
installation. But this

271
00:06:02,803 --> 00:06:03,959
applies to the

272
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:04,911
equipment itself from the

273
00:06:04,911 --> 00:06:07,295
Toro distributor.

274
00:06:07,295 --> 00:06:09,220
Good. Thank you. Good.

275
00:06:09,220 --> 00:06:10,402
Okay, did you have a

276
00:06:10,402 --> 00:06:11,074
question?

277
00:06:11,074 --> 00:06:12,319
Yeah, I just wanted

278
00:06:12,319 --> 00:06:18,513
to ask,

279
00:06:18,513 --> 00:06:19,706
maybe it's already in

280
00:06:19,706 --> 00:06:20,660
your second

281
00:06:20,660 --> 00:06:21,854
kit, but, uh,

282
00:06:21,854 --> 00:06:22,604
since it's

283
00:06:22,604 --> 00:06:23,320
about

284
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:24,240
equipment, does that

285
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,195
include, uh,

286
00:06:25,195 --> 00:06:26,490
sprinkler heads

287
00:06:26,490 --> 00:06:27,718
and piping, or is

288
00:06:27,718 --> 00:06:33,963
it just the controllers?

289
00:06:33,963 --> 00:06:35,661
Uh, these are controllers, uh

290
00:06:35,661 --> 00:06:36,794
, and these are, uh, yes,

291
00:06:36,794 --> 00:06:38,318
boxes for, uh, all over the

292
00:06:38,318 --> 00:06:43,954
field. So, uh,

293
00:06:43,954 --> 00:06:45,366
it's not individual heads

294
00:06:45,366 --> 00:06:46,666
as such, but it's, uh,

295
00:06:46,666 --> 00:06:48,115
there are boxes all over the

296
00:06:48,115 --> 00:06:49,563
hole all over the field,

297
00:06:49,563 --> 00:06:50,938
uh, that help

298
00:06:50,938 --> 00:06:51,978
control all

299
00:06:51,978 --> 00:06:53,241
the heads, if that

300
00:06:53,241 --> 00:06:56,268
makes sense.

301
00:06:56,268 --> 00:06:58,794
Yes. I just wanted to

302
00:06:58,794 --> 00:06:59,822
ask because I

303
00:06:59,822 --> 00:07:01,048
thought if we

304
00:07:01,048 --> 00:07:02,042
had to do

305
00:07:02,042 --> 00:07:02,970
separate

306
00:07:02,970 --> 00:07:03,898
sprinkler heads and

307
00:07:03,898 --> 00:07:05,224
piping, etc., it would be

308
00:07:05,224 --> 00:07:07,886
pretty

309
00:07:07,886 --> 00:07:08,640
serious and

310
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,737
hopefully we wouldn't be

311
00:07:09,737 --> 00:07:10,835
doing this for

312
00:07:10,835 --> 00:07:11,621
very long.

313
00:07:11,621 --> 00:07:12,012
Yes.

314
00:07:12,012 --> 00:07:13,432
On this field.

315
00:07:13,432 --> 00:07:15,418
Yes. Okay, thank you. Are

316
00:07:15,418 --> 00:07:16,739
there any other questions

317
00:07:16,739 --> 00:07:18,525
or comments? No? Everyone

318
00:07:18,525 --> 00:07:19,826
who is in favor of the proposal

319
00:07:19,826 --> 00:07:20,424
says:

320
00:07:20,424 --> 00:07:20,900
Yes.

321
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:22,581
Those against, no. The proposal

322
00:07:22,581 --> 00:07:24,452
is accepted. Item G2.

323
00:07:24,452 --> 00:07:26,324
Madam Chair, I move to

324
00:07:26,363 --> 00:07:27,845
authorize the

325
00:07:27,845 --> 00:07:29,015
Canton Township Clerk to

326
00:07:29,015 --> 00:07:30,536
sign a permit for

327
00:07:30,536 --> 00:07:35,342
Ace Pyro LLC to store,

328
00:07:35,342 --> 00:07:36,864
transport, and

329
00:07:36,864 --> 00:07:37,920
display

330
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,019
fireworks at the

331
00:07:39,019 --> 00:07:40,456
Festival of Lights on

332
00:07:40,456 --> 00:07:42,633
October 9, 2026.

333
00:07:42,633 --> 00:07:43,741
I have support.

334
00:07:43,741 --> 00:07:44,599
The proposal was made by

335
00:07:44,599 --> 00:07:45,258
Clerk Seeger, and

336
00:07:45,258 --> 00:07:46,174
seconded by Trustee

337
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:46,933
Berninski. The

338
00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:47,933
Arts

339
00:07:47,933 --> 00:07:48,908
and Humanities Partnership is

340
00:07:48,908 --> 00:07:49,508
collaborating with

341
00:07:49,508 --> 00:07:49,933
several

342
00:07:49,933 --> 00:07:50,933
community groups

343
00:07:50,933 --> 00:07:52,183
to host a

344
00:07:52,208 --> 00:07:53,083
Festival of Lights celebration on

345
00:07:53,083 --> 00:07:53,983
Friday, October 9th, at

346
00:07:53,983 --> 00:07:54,783
Heritage Park.

347
00:07:54,783 --> 00:07:55,994
The Festival of Lights is a

348
00:07:55,994 --> 00:07:56,927
cultural celebration of

349
00:07:56,927 --> 00:07:57,579
lights that

350
00:07:57,579 --> 00:07:58,760
symbolizes the victory of

351
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,096
light over darkness.

352
00:08:00,096 --> 00:08:00,921
This free

353
00:08:00,921 --> 00:08:01,875
event is open to

354
00:08:01,875 --> 00:08:02,855
all community members

355
00:08:02,855 --> 00:08:03,836
so they can

356
00:08:03,836 --> 00:08:04,455
learn and

357
00:08:04,455 --> 00:08:05,280
celebrate together through

358
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,312
Native American cultural

359
00:08:06,312 --> 00:08:06,982
dance, a DJ,

360
00:08:06,982 --> 00:08:08,063
Indian food, and henna.

361
00:08:08,063 --> 00:08:09,308
The evening ends with

362
00:08:09,308 --> 00:08:11,080
fireworks. The fire

363
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,268
inspector reviewed the

364
00:08:14,214 --> 00:08:14,983
fireworks display permit application and

365
00:08:14,983 --> 00:08:16,166
accompanying documentation

366
00:08:16,166 --> 00:08:17,260
from Ace Pyro LLC of Salina,

367
00:08:17,260 --> 00:08:18,088
Michigan, and

368
00:08:18,088 --> 00:08:18,620
found it to be in

369
00:08:18,620 --> 00:08:19,566
compliance with all

370
00:08:19,566 --> 00:08:20,749
requirements of the National

371
00:08:20,749 --> 00:08:21,813
Fire

372
00:08:21,813 --> 00:08:22,671
Protection Association and all

373
00:08:22,671 --> 00:08:23,321
state and

374
00:08:23,321 --> 00:08:24,445
federal

375
00:08:24,445 --> 00:08:25,617
fireworks laws. Therefore, the

376
00:08:25,617 --> 00:08:26,829
fire inspector

377
00:08:26,829 --> 00:08:27,974
recommends issuing a

378
00:08:27,974 --> 00:08:30,601
permit for the Festival of

379
00:08:30,635 --> 00:08:31,746
Lights fireworks for 2026.

380
00:08:31,746 --> 00:08:32,901
Director Figer, do you have

381
00:08:32,901 --> 00:08:34,125
anything to add? Well

382
00:08:34,125 --> 00:08:35,256
, nothing more

383
00:08:35,256 --> 00:08:36,321
to add.

384
00:08:36,321 --> 00:08:37,643
Okay, so

385
00:08:37,643 --> 00:08:38,800
permission is needed, and they are

386
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:39,885
asking for it. Any

387
00:08:39,885 --> 00:08:40,723
questions or

388
00:08:40,723 --> 00:08:42,708
comments? No. Everyone is “for

389
00:08:42,708 --> 00:08:44,272
” the proposal, say

390
00:08:44,272 --> 00:08:45,374
Ya.

391
00:08:45,374 --> 00:08:47,195
Against–no. The proposal

392
00:08:47,195 --> 00:08:49,875
is accepted. G3.

393
00:08:49,875 --> 00:08:51,764
Madam Chair, I

394
00:08:51,764 --> 00:08:53,771
move that

395
00:08:53,771 --> 00:08:57,591
Resolution 2026-53 be approved,

396
00:08:57,591 --> 00:08:58,591
approving the

397
00:08:58,591 --> 00:08:59,453
revised

398
00:08:59,453 --> 00:09:00,487
preliminary

399
00:09:00,487 --> 00:09:01,763
development plan for Silver Creek

400
00:09:01,763 --> 00:09:03,108
Estates, formerly known

401
00:09:03,108 --> 00:09:04,212
as Everton Reserve, in this

402
00:09:04,212 --> 00:09:07,916
planning application. I

403
00:09:07,916 --> 00:09:08,726
support.

404
00:09:08,726 --> 00:09:09,551
The motion was made by

405
00:09:09,551 --> 00:09:10,185
Clerk Seeger,

406
00:09:10,185 --> 00:09:11,231
seconded by

407
00:09:11,231 --> 00:09:12,379
Trustee Foster. Silver

408
00:09:12,379 --> 00:09:13,268
Creek Estates, formerly

409
00:09:13,268 --> 00:09:14,442
known as Everton Reserve,

410
00:09:14,442 --> 00:09:15,617
is a proposed

411
00:09:15,617 --> 00:09:16,855
detached condominium

412
00:09:16,855 --> 00:09:17,935
consisting of 62

413
00:09:17,935 --> 00:09:18,728
single-family

414
00:09:18,728 --> 00:09:19,903
homes on a

415
00:09:19,903 --> 00:09:20,887
34.68-acre site

416
00:09:20,887 --> 00:09:21,840
located on the

417
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:22,919
north side of

418
00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:23,872
Cherry Hill and the

419
00:09:23,872 --> 00:09:25,110
west side of Back

420
00:09:25,110 --> 00:09:26,439
Road.

421
00:09:26,439 --> 00:09:27,294
Two entrances are proposed: one

422
00:09:27,294 --> 00:09:28,364
public entrance from

423
00:09:28,364 --> 00:09:29,402
Cherry Hill Road and

424
00:09:29,402 --> 00:09:30,593
one gated emergency exit

425
00:09:30,593 --> 00:09:32,164
from Back Road.

426
00:09:32,164 --> 00:09:33,140
Since the apartments

427
00:09:33,140 --> 00:09:34,002
will be separate

428
00:09:34,002 --> 00:09:34,864
condominiums,

429
00:09:34,864 --> 00:09:35,554
the areas outside

430
00:09:35,554 --> 00:09:36,473
the buildings will be

431
00:09:36,473 --> 00:09:37,594
common elements

432
00:09:37,594 --> 00:09:38,370
, not separate

433
00:09:38,370 --> 00:09:39,999
areas. The allowable

434
00:09:39,999 --> 00:09:41,337
density for

435
00:09:41,337 --> 00:09:42,638
single-family homes in the

436
00:09:42,638 --> 00:09:44,012
current R2 district

437
00:09:44,012 --> 00:09:45,090
is up to 2.17

438
00:09:45,090 --> 00:09:46,242
units per acre, and

439
00:09:46,242 --> 00:09:47,431
the applicant is proposing a

440
00:09:47,431 --> 00:09:48,880
density of 1.79 units

441
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,384
per acre. At my

442
00:09:50,384 --> 00:09:52,300
meeting on March 3,

443
00:09:52,300 --> 00:09:54,322
2020, I assume it is

444
00:09:54,322 --> 00:09:56,232
2025 or 2026.

445
00:09:56,232 --> 00:09:57,377
Hmm, that's a

446
00:09:57,377 --> 00:09:58,310
typo. This is from...

447
00:09:58,310 --> 00:09:59,462
the planning commission

448
00:09:59,462 --> 00:10:00,644
previously recommended

449
00:10:00,644 --> 00:10:01,826
approval of a preliminary

450
00:10:01,826 --> 00:10:03,008
version of this plan on

451
00:10:03,008 --> 00:10:04,043
that date, but, uh, as for the

452
00:10:04,043 --> 00:10:05,165
current

453
00:10:05,165 --> 00:10:05,786
version that

454
00:10:05,786 --> 00:10:06,613
is before the

455
00:10:06,613 --> 00:10:07,382
council

456
00:10:07,382 --> 00:10:08,504
tonight, it was

457
00:10:08,504 --> 00:10:09,302
recommended by the

458
00:10:09,302 --> 00:10:10,455
planning commission on

459
00:10:10,455 --> 00:10:11,353
July 6, 2026.

460
00:10:11,353 --> 00:10:13,215
July 6th, okay. On July 6,

461
00:10:13,215 --> 00:10:14,900
2026, the planning commission

462
00:10:14,932 --> 00:10:15,808
recommended

463
00:10:15,808 --> 00:10:16,488
approval of the

464
00:10:16,488 --> 00:10:17,460
preliminary

465
00:10:17,460 --> 00:10:18,608
site plan. Director

466
00:10:18,608 --> 00:10:19,553
Norwood, do you have

467
00:10:19,553 --> 00:10:20,303
anything to add?

468
00:10:20,303 --> 00:10:21,336
Hmm, thank you, Madam

469
00:10:21,336 --> 00:10:22,632
Manager. I have nothing to

470
00:10:22,632 --> 00:10:23,556
add. Uh,

471
00:10:23,556 --> 00:10:24,888
however, you heard from

472
00:10:24,910 --> 00:10:25,587
community planner Patrick

473
00:10:25,587 --> 00:10:26,619
Sloan. He is also here to

474
00:10:26,619 --> 00:10:27,430
answer

475
00:10:27,430 --> 00:10:28,390
any questions.

476
00:10:28,390 --> 00:10:30,040
Thank you, Patrick. Do

477
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,205
you have anything to add? Uh

478
00:10:31,205 --> 00:10:32,535
, yes. A little

479
00:10:32,535 --> 00:10:34,192
history of the project. So

480
00:10:34,192 --> 00:10:35,500
, uh, that original

481
00:10:35,500 --> 00:10:36,807
typo

482
00:10:36,807 --> 00:10:38,150
that was in the main

483
00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:39,563
text, uh, that I

484
00:10:39,563 --> 00:10:40,906
had there, uh, that was a

485
00:10:40,906 --> 00:10:42,037
previous version of the

486
00:10:42,037 --> 00:10:43,727
same plan. And, uh,

487
00:10:43,727 --> 00:10:44,983
so this is a plan that has

488
00:10:44,983 --> 00:10:46,794
already been considered by the

489
00:10:46,831 --> 00:10:48,691
planning commission and the council.

490
00:10:48,691 --> 00:10:49,738
And, uh, this project

491
00:10:49,738 --> 00:10:50,886
was previously called the

492
00:10:50,886 --> 00:10:51,731
Everton

493
00:10:51,731 --> 00:10:53,059
Preserve. The

494
00:10:53,059 --> 00:10:54,300
preliminary

495
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:55,211
site plan was

496
00:10:55,211 --> 00:10:56,701
approved by the

497
00:10:56,701 --> 00:10:58,232
township board of trustees on

498
00:10:58,232 --> 00:11:00,437
May 13, 2025. And since then,

499
00:11:00,437 --> 00:11:01,481
the applicant

500
00:11:01,481 --> 00:11:02,113
has been working to

501
00:11:02,113 --> 00:11:03,315
obtain

502
00:11:03,315 --> 00:11:04,264
state, county, and

503
00:11:04,264 --> 00:11:05,845
town permits, as well as

504
00:11:05,877 --> 00:11:07,110
engineering department approval,

505
00:11:07,110 --> 00:11:08,027
before

506
00:11:08,027 --> 00:11:10,051
applying for final

507
00:11:10,083 --> 00:11:11,127
site plan review for this

508
00:11:11,127 --> 00:11:12,360
condominium project

509
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,431
. During this

510
00:11:14,431 --> 00:11:15,328
process, the applicant

511
00:11:15,328 --> 00:11:16,645
applied to the

512
00:11:16,675 --> 00:11:18,919
Eagle Department of State for a

513
00:11:18,949 --> 00:11:20,537
wetland permit review.

514
00:11:20,537 --> 00:11:21,434
And during this

515
00:11:21,434 --> 00:11:22,557
review, Eagle looked for

516
00:11:22,557 --> 00:11:23,840
ways to minimize

517
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:24,930
any impact on

518
00:11:24,930 --> 00:11:27,291
wetlands.

519
00:11:27,291 --> 00:11:28,411
And the previous version of

520
00:11:28,411 --> 00:11:29,435
the plan showed

521
00:11:29,435 --> 00:11:30,427
full access to the

522
00:11:30,427 --> 00:11:32,318
road. And

523
00:11:32,318 --> 00:11:33,515
during the wetland survey

524
00:11:33,515 --> 00:11:34,522
, in

525
00:11:34,522 --> 00:11:35,719
an attempt to minimize the

526
00:11:35,719 --> 00:11:36,569
impact on the

527
00:11:36,569 --> 00:11:37,608
wetlands on the

528
00:11:37,608 --> 00:11:38,553
eastern side of

529
00:11:38,553 --> 00:11:39,340
the site, it was

530
00:11:39,340 --> 00:11:40,505
determined that it would be

531
00:11:40,505 --> 00:11:41,702
better to have access to

532
00:11:41,702 --> 00:11:42,836
the secondary road

533
00:11:42,836 --> 00:11:44,001
for emergency vehicles only

534
00:11:44,001 --> 00:11:45,860
.

535
00:11:45,860 --> 00:11:47,110
This allowed

536
00:11:47,110 --> 00:11:48,265
this access to be narrowed and significantly

537
00:11:48,265 --> 00:11:49,324
reduced the impact on the

538
00:11:49,324 --> 00:11:50,575
wetlands

539
00:11:50,575 --> 00:11:51,697
on the eastern side of the

540
00:11:51,697 --> 00:11:54,880
site. And having a

541
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,069
closed emergency

542
00:11:56,069 --> 00:11:56,663
access on a

543
00:11:56,663 --> 00:11:57,734
secondary road

544
00:11:57,734 --> 00:11:58,744
would still allow

545
00:11:58,744 --> 00:11:59,547
emergency services

546
00:11:59,547 --> 00:12:00,498
to approach from Back

547
00:12:00,498 --> 00:12:01,480
Road, but all

548
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:02,223
public

549
00:12:02,223 --> 00:12:03,353
transport traffic would be

550
00:12:03,353 --> 00:12:06,309
from Cherry Hill Road.

551
00:12:06,309 --> 00:12:07,679
So, the applicants

552
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,558
revised their plans from

553
00:12:09,558 --> 00:12:10,875
2025. We

554
00:12:10,875 --> 00:12:11,635
are still in the

555
00:12:11,635 --> 00:12:12,666
preliminary

556
00:12:12,666 --> 00:12:13,453
development plan stage,

557
00:12:13,453 --> 00:12:14,430
as it is the same

558
00:12:14,430 --> 00:12:15,298
development, the same

559
00:12:15,298 --> 00:12:16,384
number of apartments, the

560
00:12:16,384 --> 00:12:17,171
same density,

561
00:12:17,171 --> 00:12:17,903
even the same

562
00:12:17,903 --> 00:12:19,035
development layout.

563
00:12:19,035 --> 00:12:20,068
However, due to the change

564
00:12:20,068 --> 00:12:21,195
in access, the change in

565
00:12:21,195 --> 00:12:22,135
traffic patterns, this issue

566
00:12:22,135 --> 00:12:23,262
had to be brought back

567
00:12:23,262 --> 00:12:24,452
to the

568
00:12:24,452 --> 00:12:25,549
planning commission and board of

569
00:12:25,549 --> 00:12:26,300
trustees for

570
00:12:26,300 --> 00:12:27,929
preliminary

571
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,910
development plan review. The last thing

572
00:12:29,910 --> 00:12:30,713
I will mention regarding the

573
00:12:30,713 --> 00:12:31,646
significant changes to the

574
00:12:31,646 --> 00:12:32,932
project itself is that

575
00:12:32,932 --> 00:12:34,122
due to the increase in

576
00:12:34,122 --> 00:12:35,375
traffic on Cherry Hill

577
00:12:35,375 --> 00:12:36,662
Road, the applicants added a

578
00:12:36,662 --> 00:12:38,462
dedicated

579
00:12:38,494 --> 00:12:40,648
detour signal to allow

580
00:12:40,681 --> 00:12:41,645
left turns to the east,

581
00:12:41,645 --> 00:12:42,899
left turns into the

582
00:12:42,899 --> 00:12:43,992
area, and then

583
00:12:43,992 --> 00:12:45,728
installed a

584
00:12:45,761 --> 00:12:46,596
detour signal on the

585
00:12:46,596 --> 00:12:47,690
south side of

586
00:12:47,690 --> 00:12:48,976
Cherry Hill Road so that during

587
00:12:48,976 --> 00:12:50,230
rush hour or if there are

588
00:12:50,230 --> 00:12:51,098
vehicles

589
00:12:51,098 --> 00:12:52,223
waiting to make a

590
00:12:52,223 --> 00:12:53,252
left turn, any

591
00:12:53,252 --> 00:12:54,120
vehicles

592
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,213
traveling east would

593
00:12:55,213 --> 00:12:57,335
have a detour signal around them

594
00:12:57,367 --> 00:12:58,597
. So,

595
00:12:58,597 --> 00:12:59,624
the signal light

596
00:12:59,624 --> 00:13:00,652
for the detour along

597
00:13:00,652 --> 00:13:01,679
Cherry Hill Road and the

598
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:02,828
change to emergency vehicle-only access to Back

599
00:13:02,828 --> 00:13:04,248
Road

600
00:13:05,427 --> 00:13:06,576
are two major changes

601
00:13:06,576 --> 00:13:07,845
since the

602
00:13:08,963 --> 00:13:09,878
site plan was previously approved. So, with that in

603
00:13:09,878 --> 00:13:10,878
mind, I'd be

604
00:13:10,878 --> 00:13:11,907
happy to answer

605
00:13:11,907 --> 00:13:12,980
any questions.

606
00:13:12,980 --> 00:13:14,141
Summer, anything from the

607
00:13:14,141 --> 00:13:15,403
planning commission?

608
00:13:15,403 --> 00:13:16,379
There is nothing to add

609
00:13:16,379 --> 00:13:18,333
other than what is in the

610
00:13:18,362 --> 00:13:20,028
planning commission minutes.

611
00:13:20,028 --> 00:13:21,418
Are there any questions from the

612
00:13:21,418 --> 00:13:21,986
council?

613
00:13:21,986 --> 00:13:22,636
A.

614
00:13:22,636 --> 00:13:25,138
Okay.

615
00:13:25,138 --> 00:13:30,349
Um, yes. So, I

616
00:13:30,349 --> 00:13:32,947
noticed that, um, in the

617
00:13:32,985 --> 00:13:34,381
planning commission minutes and, um, in the

618
00:13:34,381 --> 00:13:40,116
ZBA minutes as well,

619
00:13:40,116 --> 00:13:41,352
there were concerns

620
00:13:41,352 --> 00:13:42,661
about, um, flooding and

621
00:13:42,661 --> 00:13:49,597
wetlands.

622
00:13:49,597 --> 00:13:51,012
Um, and I noticed that Mr.

623
00:13:51,012 --> 00:13:52,287
Constantino mentioned

624
00:13:52,287 --> 00:14:00,960
Mott Drain. And I'm

625
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,596
wondering, um, this isn't

626
00:14:02,631 --> 00:14:03,675
directly related to the

627
00:14:03,675 --> 00:14:05,032
site plan, but I'm

628
00:14:05,032 --> 00:14:06,320
wondering if, um, we mean

629
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,468
, can

630
00:14:07,468 --> 00:14:08,721
the administration

631
00:14:08,721 --> 00:14:09,974
find out when the

632
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:11,366
last time there was

633
00:14:11,366 --> 00:14:17,427
dredging there.

634
00:14:17,427 --> 00:14:18,909
Yes, we can, we can

635
00:14:18,909 --> 00:14:20,977
do it. And as part of

636
00:14:20,977 --> 00:14:22,155
this site plan, the

637
00:14:22,155 --> 00:14:23,175
applicant is proposing

638
00:14:23,175 --> 00:14:24,226
an easement over Mott

639
00:14:24,226 --> 00:14:25,405
Drain, and that is a requirement of

640
00:14:25,405 --> 00:14:27,565
Wayne County. Mott

641
00:14:27,565 --> 00:14:28,452
Drain is

642
00:14:28,452 --> 00:14:29,236
under the jurisdiction of

643
00:14:29,236 --> 00:14:30,202
Wayne County, so we

644
00:14:30,202 --> 00:14:31,221
can contact the

645
00:14:31,221 --> 00:14:32,239
county to find out

646
00:14:32,239 --> 00:14:33,205
when they last

647
00:14:33,205 --> 00:14:34,302
performed

648
00:14:34,328 --> 00:14:35,269
maintenance there or

649
00:14:35,269 --> 00:14:36,130
if they have allowed

650
00:14:36,130 --> 00:14:37,462
any

651
00:14:37,488 --> 00:14:38,565
maintenance there.

652
00:14:38,565 --> 00:14:40,272
Right. Right.

653
00:14:40,272 --> 00:14:41,591
Yes, I mean it would be

654
00:14:41,591 --> 00:14:42,745
good to know

655
00:14:42,745 --> 00:14:43,768
when this last

656
00:14:43,768 --> 00:14:44,955
happened, and if

657
00:14:44,955 --> 00:14:46,242
it hasn't happened

658
00:14:46,242 --> 00:14:47,363
in the last

659
00:14:47,363 --> 00:14:48,419
few years, we

660
00:14:48,419 --> 00:14:49,705
should make sure

661
00:14:49,705 --> 00:14:56,503
it happens. Um,

662
00:14:56,503 --> 00:14:57,710
and then I'm also

663
00:14:57,710 --> 00:14:59,023
wondering, um, does it look like the

664
00:14:59,023 --> 00:15:00,195
previous

665
00:15:00,195 --> 00:15:01,543
site plan shows

666
00:15:01,543 --> 00:15:02,928
that there's a large, um, pond or wetland on the east side,

667
00:15:02,928 --> 00:15:04,135
directly

668
00:15:04,135 --> 00:15:05,377
adjacent to

669
00:15:05,377 --> 00:15:07,719
Dodson Elementary School.

670
00:15:08,926 --> 00:15:16,874
And, um, even though my

671
00:15:16,874 --> 00:15:17,966
kids attended

672
00:15:17,966 --> 00:15:19,234
Dodson, it's been

673
00:15:19,234 --> 00:15:22,117
a few years now. My

674
00:15:22,117 --> 00:15:23,716
youngest is 25. So I'm

675
00:15:23,716 --> 00:15:25,356
wondering if there's any kind of

676
00:15:25,356 --> 00:15:26,791
fence there, as far as

677
00:15:26,791 --> 00:15:28,288
we know.

678
00:15:28,288 --> 00:15:33,852
Yes. The site plan

679
00:15:33,852 --> 00:15:36,081
shows that there

680
00:15:36,118 --> 00:15:40,397
is a fence along the line bordering Dodson.

681
00:15:40,397 --> 00:15:46,028
Good. Do we know

682
00:15:46,028 --> 00:15:47,249
if there is also a fence

683
00:15:47,249 --> 00:15:48,435
that runs

684
00:15:48,435 --> 00:15:49,796
along the property line

685
00:15:49,796 --> 00:15:51,017
near the house to the

686
00:15:51,017 --> 00:15:56,140
east? Or near

687
00:15:56,140 --> 00:16:00,831
houses? Because I just wouldn't want

688
00:16:00,831 --> 00:16:02,111
any

689
00:16:02,111 --> 00:16:03,391
child to have access to

690
00:16:03,391 --> 00:16:08,515
that pond.

691
00:16:08,515 --> 00:16:09,607
I can zoom in on the

692
00:16:09,607 --> 00:16:11,018
aerial image,

693
00:16:11,018 --> 00:16:23,380
and looking at the

694
00:16:23,380 --> 00:16:24,387
last

695
00:16:24,387 --> 00:16:25,263
aerial shot, it's hard

696
00:16:25,263 --> 00:16:26,303
to tell because there's a

697
00:16:26,303 --> 00:16:27,439
pretty thick

698
00:16:27,439 --> 00:16:29,839
tree line. And some of the

699
00:16:29,839 --> 00:16:30,984
recent

700
00:16:30,984 --> 00:16:32,261
aerial photos have foliage, so

701
00:16:32,261 --> 00:16:33,374
it's hard to see if

702
00:16:33,374 --> 00:16:34,650
this fence extends

703
00:16:34,650 --> 00:16:37,423
along the contour of the school.

704
00:16:37,423 --> 00:16:39,045
Good. I just want

705
00:16:39,045 --> 00:16:40,288
to ask if

706
00:16:40,288 --> 00:16:48,343
we can first...

707
00:16:48,343 --> 00:16:49,287
Who is part of

708
00:16:49,287 --> 00:16:50,652
the resolution that you're

709
00:16:50,652 --> 00:16:53,829
asking about?

710
00:16:53,829 --> 00:16:55,219
Well, I mean, you

711
00:16:55,219 --> 00:16:56,609
need to discuss

712
00:16:56,609 --> 00:17:04,353
this with the school. Um, and I,

713
00:17:04,353 --> 00:17:11,345
um...So, if we

714
00:17:11,377 --> 00:17:12,050
approve the

715
00:17:12,050 --> 00:17:13,012
preliminary

716
00:17:13,012 --> 00:17:14,166
site plan tonight, what are the

717
00:17:14,166 --> 00:17:15,096
next steps,

718
00:17:15,096 --> 00:17:17,704
Patrick?

719
00:17:17,704 --> 00:17:18,603
Um, the

720
00:17:18,603 --> 00:17:19,669
applicant's next steps

721
00:17:19,669 --> 00:17:20,736
will be to undergo an

722
00:17:20,736 --> 00:17:21,435
engineering

723
00:17:21,435 --> 00:17:22,735
examination at the

724
00:17:22,735 --> 00:17:26,183
town's Engineering Department.

725
00:17:26,183 --> 00:17:27,247
They will approach

726
00:17:27,247 --> 00:17:28,130
Wayne County for

727
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:29,103
county consideration

728
00:17:29,103 --> 00:17:30,016
regarding

729
00:17:30,016 --> 00:17:31,020
stormwater management,

730
00:17:31,020 --> 00:17:32,511
soil erosion,

731
00:17:32,541 --> 00:17:34,045
public road accesses. Um

732
00:17:34,045 --> 00:17:36,165
, they will apply to the

733
00:17:36,196 --> 00:17:38,191
Michigan Eagle State Office for

734
00:17:39,033 --> 00:17:41,121
utility permits and wetland permits

735
00:17:41,152 --> 00:17:43,024
. Um, and this

736
00:17:43,024 --> 00:17:44,253
process can take,

737
00:17:44,253 --> 00:17:45,482
um, several months, and

738
00:17:45,482 --> 00:17:46,647
then, um, once

739
00:17:46,647 --> 00:17:47,552
they get

740
00:17:47,552 --> 00:17:48,620
approval from, um,

741
00:17:48,620 --> 00:17:49,817
state, county,

742
00:17:49,817 --> 00:17:51,013
and local

743
00:17:51,013 --> 00:17:51,693
governments, they

744
00:17:51,693 --> 00:17:53,892
go back to the

745
00:17:53,925 --> 00:17:55,865
Canton Township Planning Commission and the

746
00:17:55,898 --> 00:17:56,545
Township Board of Trustees for

747
00:17:56,545 --> 00:17:57,839
final review of the

748
00:17:57,839 --> 00:17:59,068
site plan. So,

749
00:17:59,068 --> 00:17:59,762
um, when they

750
00:17:59,762 --> 00:18:00,513
come back with the

751
00:18:00,513 --> 00:18:01,669
final review of the

752
00:18:01,669 --> 00:18:02,709
site plan, it

753
00:18:02,709 --> 00:18:03,836
will be reviewed again by, um

754
00:18:03,836 --> 00:18:04,414
, the

755
00:18:04,414 --> 00:18:05,425
planning commission and the board of

756
00:18:05,425 --> 00:18:06,017
trustees.

757
00:18:06,017 --> 00:18:06,684
Right.

758
00:18:06,684 --> 00:18:07,836
Um, and then looking at

759
00:18:07,836 --> 00:18:08,545
, um, some of the

760
00:18:08,545 --> 00:18:09,668
Google Street

761
00:18:09,668 --> 00:18:10,732
View photos, it looks like there's a chain-link fence running along the

762
00:18:10,732 --> 00:18:11,737
north side of the

763
00:18:11,737 --> 00:18:13,096
school boundary

764
00:18:13,126 --> 00:18:14,345
. Hmm,

765
00:18:14,345 --> 00:18:15,470
I can see it from Back

766
00:18:15,470 --> 00:18:16,220
Road and a good

767
00:18:16,220 --> 00:18:17,144
portion of the school

768
00:18:17,144 --> 00:18:18,125
grounds, but there's a

769
00:18:18,125 --> 00:18:19,192
lot of vegetation there,

770
00:18:19,192 --> 00:18:20,087
so it's a little hard

771
00:18:20,087 --> 00:18:21,241
to tell if

772
00:18:21,241 --> 00:18:22,338
it runs along the entire boundary of the

773
00:18:22,338 --> 00:18:23,585
site. So this is something

774
00:18:23,585 --> 00:18:24,734
we can investigate

775
00:18:24,734 --> 00:18:25,549
and find out.

776
00:18:25,549 --> 00:18:29,069
Good. That would be good

777
00:18:29,069 --> 00:18:30,201
, because I just

778
00:18:30,201 --> 00:18:31,616
want to make sure that

779
00:18:31,616 --> 00:18:32,606
we don't have, um,

780
00:18:32,606 --> 00:18:33,738
any kids

781
00:18:33,738 --> 00:18:35,082
accessing this

782
00:18:35,082 --> 00:18:35,931
area from the

783
00:18:35,931 --> 00:18:39,852
school grounds.

784
00:18:39,852 --> 00:18:40,985
And if it looks like it is, and

785
00:18:40,985 --> 00:18:41,637
it's an out-of-

786
00:18:41,637 --> 00:18:42,488
area condition where there's a

787
00:18:42,488 --> 00:18:43,593
hole in the fence that's

788
00:18:43,593 --> 00:18:44,359
not adjacent to the site

789
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,322
, we can

790
00:18:45,322 --> 00:18:46,400
contact the school

791
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:47,363
and let them know and

792
00:18:47,363 --> 00:18:48,497
work with them

793
00:18:48,497 --> 00:18:49,603
to let them know, uh

794
00:18:49,603 --> 00:18:51,162
, about future

795
00:18:51,190 --> 00:18:52,324
development proposals and what

796
00:18:52,324 --> 00:18:53,231
might be in their

797
00:18:53,231 --> 00:18:54,308
best interest

798
00:18:54,308 --> 00:18:55,669
from a safety perspective.

799
00:18:55,669 --> 00:18:58,051
Good. I appreciate it.

800
00:18:58,051 --> 00:19:00,416
Thank you. Are there any more

801
00:19:00,416 --> 00:19:02,815
questions, Michael?

802
00:19:02,815 --> 00:19:04,037
Hmm, I have no

803
00:19:04,037 --> 00:19:11,265
questions. Hmm, but I want to

804
00:19:11,265 --> 00:19:12,239
express my

805
00:19:12,239 --> 00:19:13,527
gratitude to the

806
00:19:13,527 --> 00:19:14,919
planning commission, Eagle, and, um, the

807
00:19:14,919 --> 00:19:16,172
ZBA, because I think

808
00:19:16,172 --> 00:19:17,321
this final

809
00:19:17,321 --> 00:19:18,608
site plan is better

810
00:19:18,608 --> 00:19:19,861
than the original one that

811
00:19:19,861 --> 00:19:20,871
was adopted with the

812
00:19:20,871 --> 00:19:21,671
secondary

813
00:19:21,671 --> 00:19:22,854
access road

814
00:19:22,854 --> 00:19:23,829
that was supposed to be in the

815
00:19:23,829 --> 00:19:24,873
wetland easement

816
00:19:24,873 --> 00:19:27,587
. I

817
00:19:27,587 --> 00:19:28,856
think sometimes, um,

818
00:19:28,856 --> 00:19:30,197
we have a hard time when our

819
00:19:30,197 --> 00:19:31,647
standards conflict with

820
00:19:31,647 --> 00:19:32,952
each other, and, um,

821
00:19:32,952 --> 00:19:34,148
we have conflicting

822
00:19:34,148 --> 00:19:35,453
values ​​about what is the

823
00:19:35,453 --> 00:19:36,903
right thing to do in a

824
00:19:36,903 --> 00:19:41,522
particular situation.

825
00:19:41,522 --> 00:19:42,686
I understand access and

826
00:19:42,686 --> 00:19:44,057
the need for multiple

827
00:19:44,057 --> 00:19:45,221
entrances and exits for

828
00:19:45,221 --> 00:19:46,558
safety reasons, ahem

829
00:19:46,558 --> 00:19:47,859
, but I also share

830
00:19:47,859 --> 00:19:49,127
many of the concerns,

831
00:19:49,127 --> 00:19:50,292
ahem, of community members

832
00:19:50,292 --> 00:19:51,388
about the unnecessary

833
00:19:51,388 --> 00:19:52,210
loss of

834
00:19:52,210 --> 00:19:53,581
wetlands and, ahem,

835
00:19:53,581 --> 00:19:59,130
forests. Hmm, I think it's

836
00:19:59,130 --> 00:20:03,234
hard for us to, um,

837
00:20:03,234 --> 00:20:03,960
see these

838
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:04,753
standards and

839
00:20:04,753 --> 00:20:05,910
see this loss of

840
00:20:05,910 --> 00:20:07,199
wetlands

841
00:20:07,199 --> 00:20:08,190
due to having a

842
00:20:08,190 --> 00:20:09,082
paved

843
00:20:09,082 --> 00:20:10,338
surface, um, within the

844
00:20:10,338 --> 00:20:12,382
easement. Uh, and

845
00:20:12,382 --> 00:20:13,638
then ask yourself

846
00:20:13,638 --> 00:20:14,762
why this community has

847
00:20:14,762 --> 00:20:15,357
so many

848
00:20:15,357 --> 00:20:16,715
floods.

849
00:20:16,715 --> 00:20:18,634
This is, um, almost absurd

850
00:20:18,634 --> 00:20:20,865
. As? So, in this

851
00:20:20,865 --> 00:20:22,249
case, I think, um,

852
00:20:22,249 --> 00:20:22,847
this is a good

853
00:20:22,847 --> 00:20:24,044
use of, um, the

854
00:20:24,044 --> 00:20:26,167
planning process.

855
00:20:26,167 --> 00:20:28,963
Um, and a much better, plan,

856
00:20:28,963 --> 00:20:30,047
based on that

857
00:20:30,047 --> 00:20:31,971
standard.

858
00:20:31,971 --> 00:20:33,189
I hope that through

859
00:20:33,189 --> 00:20:34,044
the work we have

860
00:20:34,044 --> 00:20:35,164
done over the

861
00:20:35,164 --> 00:20:36,217
past few

862
00:20:36,217 --> 00:20:37,337
years, Canton will be

863
00:20:37,337 --> 00:20:38,423
known as much for its

864
00:20:38,423 --> 00:20:39,575
green spaces and

865
00:20:39,575 --> 00:20:40,398
environmental

866
00:20:40,398 --> 00:20:41,682
assets as for its

867
00:20:41,682 --> 00:20:43,938
development.

868
00:20:43,938 --> 00:20:45,261
Still, I think it's,

869
00:20:45,261 --> 00:20:46,254
um, optimal

870
00:20:46,254 --> 00:20:47,283
use and a

871
00:20:47,283 --> 00:20:50,589
good, good, plan. So

872
00:20:50,589 --> 00:20:52,327
I have no questions.

873
00:20:52,327 --> 00:20:56,703
My kids drive a Datsun.

874
00:20:56,703 --> 00:20:58,222
I know, um, I feel like I

875
00:20:58,222 --> 00:20:59,400
feel like I'm

876
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:00,691
less concerned about

877
00:21:00,691 --> 00:21:02,135
safety because this,

878
00:21:02,135 --> 00:21:03,616
um, area is very, um

879
00:21:03,616 --> 00:21:04,870
, inaccessible, um, from

880
00:21:04,870 --> 00:21:05,933
this

881
00:21:05,933 --> 00:21:07,377
playground, based on

882
00:21:07,377 --> 00:21:08,288
my experience

883
00:21:08,288 --> 00:21:09,770
being near these

884
00:21:09,770 --> 00:21:15,176
swings. My daughter

885
00:21:15,176 --> 00:21:16,583
Sloan loves this

886
00:21:16,583 --> 00:21:17,955
swing set that will go next to this one

887
00:21:17,955 --> 00:21:21,538
. Um, but

888
00:21:21,538 --> 00:21:23,046
I, I definitely appreciate those

889
00:21:23,046 --> 00:21:27,451
concerns. You know,

890
00:21:27,451 --> 00:21:28,575
with that in mind, I

891
00:21:28,575 --> 00:21:29,998
think the

892
00:21:29,998 --> 00:21:31,309
ZBA variances and I think the

893
00:21:31,309 --> 00:21:32,545
plan amendments

894
00:21:32,545 --> 00:21:33,818
look pretty

895
00:21:33,818 --> 00:21:35,958
good. So I

896
00:21:35,958 --> 00:21:38,000
will vote "yes".

897
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,780
Thank you. Summer, do you have anything

898
00:21:39,780 --> 00:21:41,037
to add?

899
00:21:41,037 --> 00:21:42,330
Thank you. I have a

900
00:21:42,330 --> 00:21:43,460
question. So, these

901
00:21:43,460 --> 00:21:44,338
will be private

902
00:21:44,338 --> 00:21:45,040
roads, is that

903
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:45,696
correct?

904
00:21:45,696 --> 00:21:46,701
That's right. It's a

905
00:21:46,701 --> 00:21:48,023
private road, and I

906
00:21:48,023 --> 00:21:49,274
can see that there will be

907
00:21:49,274 --> 00:21:51,575
sidewalks. You

908
00:21:51,575 --> 00:21:52,858
're going to put

909
00:21:52,858 --> 00:21:54,012
sidewalks all the way to the edge of the

910
00:21:54,012 --> 00:21:54,910
lot along the

911
00:21:54,910 --> 00:21:56,193
creek, and then all the way to

912
00:21:56,193 --> 00:21:57,444
Back Road and all the way to Cherry

913
00:21:57,444 --> 00:21:58,695
Hill before that, is that

914
00:21:58,695 --> 00:22:03,158
correct? Good. And

915
00:22:03,158 --> 00:22:04,404
then what benefits

916
00:22:04,404 --> 00:22:05,793
for the community did you, I know

917
00:22:05,793 --> 00:22:09,349
, propose?

918
00:22:09,349 --> 00:22:12,349
Hmm, of course. Some of the

919
00:22:12,349 --> 00:22:13,244
benefits of this

920
00:22:13,244 --> 00:22:14,586
development are

921
00:22:14,586 --> 00:22:15,653
that, um, they

922
00:22:15,653 --> 00:22:16,823
exceed some of the

923
00:22:16,823 --> 00:22:17,958
standards for, um,

924
00:22:17,958 --> 00:22:19,025
Wayne County for

925
00:22:19,025 --> 00:22:22,406
road access.

926
00:22:22,406 --> 00:22:23,756
Their, um,

927
00:22:23,756 --> 00:22:24,967
traffic study did not

928
00:22:24,967 --> 00:22:26,213
show that the level of

929
00:22:26,213 --> 00:22:27,286
traffic, um, required an

930
00:22:27,286 --> 00:22:28,602
overtaking lane or a

931
00:22:28,602 --> 00:22:29,779
speeding light

932
00:22:29,779 --> 00:22:30,921
along Cherry Hill

933
00:22:30,921 --> 00:22:33,207
Road. Uh, based on

934
00:22:33,207 --> 00:22:34,341
our extensive

935
00:22:34,341 --> 00:22:35,610
experience during

936
00:22:35,610 --> 00:22:36,878
the morning and evening rush hours, um,

937
00:22:36,878 --> 00:22:38,146
we felt that, um, both

938
00:22:38,146 --> 00:22:39,347
at the staff level and

939
00:22:39,347 --> 00:22:40,215
at the

940
00:22:40,215 --> 00:22:41,550
planning commission level, a

941
00:22:41,550 --> 00:22:42,885
ramp light

942
00:22:42,885 --> 00:22:43,920
would be appropriate on

943
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,088
Cherry Hill Road,

944
00:22:45,088 --> 00:22:46,356
consistent with the other

945
00:22:46,356 --> 00:22:47,424
developments along

946
00:22:47,424 --> 00:22:48,592
this stretch of Cherry

947
00:22:48,592 --> 00:22:50,910
Hill. So, the applicant,

948
00:22:50,910 --> 00:22:52,117
um, was offered to

949
00:22:52,117 --> 00:22:53,104
include this in

950
00:22:53,104 --> 00:22:54,092
the project, um, which

951
00:22:54,092 --> 00:22:55,336
exceeded the limits of

952
00:22:55,336 --> 00:22:57,463
the resolution. And then, um

953
00:22:57,463 --> 00:22:58,821
, since the project is not a

954
00:22:58,821 --> 00:22:59,908
planned

955
00:22:59,908 --> 00:23:01,097
development area, um, there is no

956
00:23:01,097 --> 00:23:02,319
minimum

957
00:23:02,319 --> 00:23:03,202
open

958
00:23:03,202 --> 00:23:04,526
space requirement. But one of the

959
00:23:04,526 --> 00:23:05,342
things we're

960
00:23:05,342 --> 00:23:06,533
looking to do with the

961
00:23:06,533 --> 00:23:07,588
developer is

962
00:23:07,588 --> 00:23:08,540
try to, um,

963
00:23:08,540 --> 00:23:09,254
try to

964
00:23:09,254 --> 00:23:10,479
minimize the

965
00:23:10,479 --> 00:23:11,398
development area, um, with a

966
00:23:11,398 --> 00:23:12,622
base zoning of

967
00:23:12,622 --> 00:23:13,507
about two

968
00:23:13,507 --> 00:23:14,663
units per acre, um,

969
00:23:14,663 --> 00:23:15,548
they're going to want to

970
00:23:15,548 --> 00:23:16,262
try to get

971
00:23:16,262 --> 00:23:17,045
as

972
00:23:17,045 --> 00:23:18,303
close to that

973
00:23:18,303 --> 00:23:19,222
density as possible, but

974
00:23:19,222 --> 00:23:20,549
at the same time, um, the site

975
00:23:20,549 --> 00:23:21,467
has a lot of, um,

976
00:23:21,467 --> 00:23:22,760
environmental issues

977
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,086
and access issues

978
00:23:24,086 --> 00:23:25,367
. So, um, the developer

979
00:23:25,367 --> 00:23:26,678
worked to,

980
00:23:26,678 --> 00:23:27,628
um, make the most of

981
00:23:27,628 --> 00:23:28,644
that in

982
00:23:28,644 --> 00:23:29,299
terms of

983
00:23:29,299 --> 00:23:30,119
providing

984
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:31,200
density in the

985
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:32,510
development zones,

986
00:23:32,543 --> 00:23:33,723
embracing the natural

987
00:23:33,723 --> 00:23:35,425
features as much as possible. Um,

988
00:23:35,425 --> 00:23:37,609
the project still required a

989
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:38,489
waiver application for

990
00:23:38,489 --> 00:23:39,776
some of the setbacks. Um,

991
00:23:39,776 --> 00:23:41,005
if it was a PDD, it would

992
00:23:41,005 --> 00:23:42,161
be, um, otherwise it would be

993
00:23:42,161 --> 00:23:43,354
treated as a

994
00:23:43,354 --> 00:23:44,510
change request within the

995
00:23:44,510 --> 00:23:45,894
PDD process.

996
00:23:45,894 --> 00:23:46,773
Um, but the process

997
00:23:46,773 --> 00:23:48,093
of deviating from the

998
00:23:48,093 --> 00:23:50,097
site plan is somewhat similar.

999
00:23:50,097 --> 00:23:52,304
Hmm, not necessarily the

1000
00:23:52,336 --> 00:23:52,976
site plan and

1001
00:23:52,976 --> 00:23:53,872
variation process has

1002
00:23:53,872 --> 00:23:54,992
the same benefits,

1003
00:23:54,992 --> 00:23:55,983
but

1004
00:23:55,983 --> 00:23:56,815
the development has

1005
00:23:56,815 --> 00:23:57,903
preserved significant

1006
00:23:57,903 --> 00:23:59,023
open space,

1007
00:23:59,023 --> 00:24:00,046
many natural

1008
00:24:00,046 --> 00:24:00,974
features, and

1009
00:24:00,974 --> 00:24:02,126
through

1010
00:24:02,126 --> 00:24:03,246
access management, sidewalks have appeared

1011
00:24:03,246 --> 00:24:04,494
along both

1012
00:24:04,494 --> 00:24:05,517
sides of the interior

1013
00:24:05,517 --> 00:24:06,797
streets, filling the

1014
00:24:06,797 --> 00:24:07,629
gaps between the

1015
00:24:07,629 --> 00:24:08,717
sidewalks along

1016
00:24:08,717 --> 00:24:11,324
Cherry Hill and Beck. And

1017
00:24:11,324 --> 00:24:12,374
while there

1018
00:24:12,374 --> 00:24:12,998
doesn't

1019
00:24:12,998 --> 00:24:14,077
necessarily have to be a

1020
00:24:14,077 --> 00:24:14,900
sidewalk from Back Road to the development, with this 20-

1021
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:15,837
foot

1022
00:24:15,837 --> 00:24:16,831
emergency-only access

1023
00:24:16,831 --> 00:24:17,966
, we expect

1024
00:24:17,966 --> 00:24:19,868
a lot of foot traffic to

1025
00:24:19,896 --> 00:24:20,918
use it, just like

1026
00:24:20,918 --> 00:24:21,543
in other

1027
00:24:21,543 --> 00:24:22,451
developments where it's

1028
00:24:22,451 --> 00:24:23,388
used

1029
00:24:23,388 --> 00:24:24,381
for emergency

1030
00:24:24,381 --> 00:24:24,794
services only.

1031
00:24:24,794 --> 00:24:27,848
Hmm. Good. Of course.

1032
00:24:27,848 --> 00:24:29,133
Okay, yes, of course,

1033
00:24:29,133 --> 00:24:30,194
yes, there will still be a

1034
00:24:30,194 --> 00:24:31,094
gap just

1035
00:24:31,094 --> 00:24:32,220
north of the school with a

1036
00:24:32,220 --> 00:24:33,409
sidewalk in front of this

1037
00:24:33,409 --> 00:24:35,282
building. This area

1038
00:24:35,282 --> 00:24:36,071
also has a lot of

1039
00:24:36,071 --> 00:24:37,057
Phragmites, and it is an

1040
00:24:37,057 --> 00:24:38,306
invasive species that

1041
00:24:38,306 --> 00:24:39,227
we are trying

1042
00:24:39,227 --> 00:24:40,246
to remove from our

1043
00:24:40,246 --> 00:24:41,677
drainage areas. Is it

1044
00:24:41,677 --> 00:24:42,910
possible

1045
00:24:42,910 --> 00:24:43,984
that some of them

1046
00:24:43,984 --> 00:24:45,153
will also be removed

1047
00:24:45,153 --> 00:24:46,195
along Cherry Hill

1048
00:24:46,195 --> 00:24:49,734
Road during this time? You know, there's a lot right in

1049
00:24:49,734 --> 00:24:51,030
front of Dodson School

1050
00:24:51,030 --> 00:24:52,094
, and I'm

1051
00:24:52,094 --> 00:24:53,124
sure it's

1052
00:24:53,124 --> 00:24:54,387
probably near Chippewa

1053
00:24:54,387 --> 00:24:55,251
Court, where

1054
00:24:55,251 --> 00:24:56,314
Chippewa

1055
00:24:56,314 --> 00:24:57,945
Court is also shown. There are some

1056
00:24:57,945 --> 00:24:59,393
Phragmites just, um, and

1057
00:24:59,393 --> 00:25:00,656
, apparently, even on the

1058
00:25:00,656 --> 00:25:02,904
site. You can't see them here

1059
00:25:02,904 --> 00:25:04,062
, but I know that

1060
00:25:04,062 --> 00:25:05,284
when I drive by

1061
00:25:05,284 --> 00:25:06,129
, I see a lot of

1062
00:25:06,129 --> 00:25:07,897
Phragmites.

1063
00:25:07,897 --> 00:25:08,672
Um, we can

1064
00:25:08,672 --> 00:25:09,706
work with the

1065
00:25:09,706 --> 00:25:10,998
applicant and the district

1066
00:25:10,998 --> 00:25:12,097
to see to what

1067
00:25:12,097 --> 00:25:13,389
extent, um, they can

1068
00:25:13,389 --> 00:25:14,136
do that.

1069
00:25:14,136 --> 00:25:17,672
Good. Thank you.

1070
00:25:17,672 --> 00:25:19,225
Good evening, Mike

1071
00:25:19,225 --> 00:25:20,596
Knowles from Ambler Group. Well,

1072
00:25:20,596 --> 00:25:23,189
glad to be here. So,

1073
00:25:23,189 --> 00:25:24,396
um, the frontage along

1074
00:25:24,396 --> 00:25:25,844
Cherry Hill will be, um,

1075
00:25:25,844 --> 00:25:30,134
substantially built up.

1076
00:25:30,134 --> 00:25:31,304
So, of course, we will

1077
00:25:31,304 --> 00:25:32,652
eradicate Phragmites

1078
00:25:32,652 --> 00:25:33,822
along the frontage, um,

1079
00:25:33,822 --> 00:25:34,461
of the development,

1080
00:25:34,461 --> 00:25:35,667
by installing an

1081
00:25:35,667 --> 00:25:36,873
overtaking lane, um, and an

1082
00:25:36,873 --> 00:25:37,866
acceleration and

1083
00:25:37,866 --> 00:25:39,001
deceleration lane, um, a

1084
00:25:39,001 --> 00:25:40,243
frontage path, and the

1085
00:25:40,243 --> 00:25:41,484
necessary embankments in

1086
00:25:41,484 --> 00:25:44,251
that location. I think

1087
00:25:44,251 --> 00:25:45,120
we'll

1088
00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:46,424
fix it well, at least

1089
00:25:46,424 --> 00:25:47,718
across the entire territory.

1090
00:25:47,718 --> 00:25:50,209
Good. Okay, thank you.

1091
00:25:50,209 --> 00:25:51,697
Okay, are there

1092
00:25:51,697 --> 00:25:54,285
any more questions? Okay,

1093
00:25:54,285 --> 00:25:55,074
everyone who is in favor of

1094
00:25:55,074 --> 00:25:56,533
the proposal, say

1095
00:25:56,533 --> 00:25:57,429
YES. I. I.

1096
00:25:57,429 --> 00:25:59,149
Against, no. The proposal

1097
00:25:59,149 --> 00:26:01,399
is accepted. Thank you.

1098
00:26:01,399 --> 00:26:05,136
Our last

1099
00:26:05,136 --> 00:26:08,599
question is G4.

1100
00:26:08,599 --> 00:26:10,034
Madam Chair, I

1101
00:26:10,034 --> 00:26:11,649
propose to cancel the

1102
00:26:11,649 --> 00:26:13,039
bidding process and

1103
00:26:13,039 --> 00:26:15,102
approve the

1104
00:26:15,147 --> 00:26:16,493
purchase order for Spartan

1105
00:26:16,493 --> 00:26:18,153
Distributors for

1106
00:26:18,153 --> 00:26:20,844
$72,202.26 for a

1107
00:26:20,889 --> 00:26:22,279
fairway mower for

1108
00:26:22,279 --> 00:26:25,385
Fellows Creek Golf Club. I

1109
00:26:25,385 --> 00:26:26,220
support.

1110
00:26:26,220 --> 00:26:27,406
A proposal.

1111
00:26:27,406 --> 00:26:28,276
The motion was made by

1112
00:26:28,276 --> 00:26:28,943
Clerk Seeger,

1113
00:26:28,943 --> 00:26:30,045
seconded by Trustee

1114
00:26:30,045 --> 00:26:31,074
Chairman Berdinsky.

1115
00:26:31,074 --> 00:26:32,013
Fellows Creek Golf Club

1116
00:26:32,013 --> 00:26:33,552
needs a new

1117
00:26:33,579 --> 00:26:34,570
fairway mower to replace

1118
00:26:34,570 --> 00:26:35,562
one of two existing

1119
00:26:35,562 --> 00:26:37,179
mowers that have

1120
00:26:37,206 --> 00:26:38,233
reached the end of their service life. Troon Golf

1122
00:26:39,268 --> 00:26:40,647
management company that

1123
00:26:40,647 --> 00:26:42,027
operates the course on behalf of

1124
00:26:42,027 --> 00:26:42,889
the township, has

1125
00:26:42,889 --> 00:26:44,200
an arrangement with Spartan

1128
00:26:46,131 --> 00:26:47,510
representative for Toro, which

1129
00:26:47,510 --> 00:26:48,683
provides national

1130
00:26:48,683 --> 00:26:49,723
pricing. This usually

1131
00:26:49,723 --> 00:26:50,753
provides a significant

1132
00:26:50,753 --> 00:26:51,641
discount from their

1133
00:26:51,641 --> 00:26:52,642
standard prices and the

1134
00:26:52,642 --> 00:26:53,358
prices of any

1135
00:26:53,358 --> 00:26:53,845
similar

1136
00:26:53,845 --> 00:26:54,981
suppliers. The Toro

1137
00:26:54,981 --> 00:26:56,550
Reelmaster 3555D meets

1138
00:26:56,550 --> 00:26:58,201
industry standards

1139
00:26:58,201 --> 00:26:59,811
and was used in

1140
00:26:59,811 --> 00:27:01,380
demonstrations at Fellows

1141
00:27:01,380 --> 00:27:02,603
Creek. This lawn mower is

1142
00:27:02,603 --> 00:27:03,615
only available

1143
00:27:03,615 --> 00:27:04,217
through this

1144
00:27:04,217 --> 00:27:05,011
distributor in the

1145
00:27:05,011 --> 00:27:06,121
Michigan region. This

1146
00:27:06,121 --> 00:27:06,523
stylish

1147
00:27:06,523 --> 00:27:07,246
lawn mower

1148
00:27:07,246 --> 00:27:08,211
allows

1149
00:27:08,211 --> 00:27:08,989
golf course staff to

1150
00:27:08,989 --> 00:27:10,061
mow

1151
00:27:10,061 --> 00:27:10,651
fairways evenly, and its

1152
00:27:10,651 --> 00:27:11,723
design makes it

1153
00:27:11,723 --> 00:27:12,018
easy

1154
00:27:12,018 --> 00:27:12,983
to use

1155
00:27:12,983 --> 00:27:13,948
on flat and sloping

1156
00:27:13,948 --> 00:27:16,286
surfaces. The

1157
00:27:16,319 --> 00:27:17,591
Fellows Creek Golf Course Administration budget for

1158
00:27:17,591 --> 00:27:18,733
2026 includes

1159
00:27:18,733 --> 00:27:19,907
capital expenditures

1160
00:27:19,907 --> 00:27:21,179
for the purchase of machinery

1161
00:27:21,179 --> 00:27:22,261
and equipment. In

1162
00:27:22,261 --> 00:27:23,282
light of these

1163
00:27:23,282 --> 00:27:24,481
considerations, PRCS

1164
00:27:24,481 --> 00:27:26,168
requests that the

1165
00:27:26,168 --> 00:27:27,322
bidding

1166
00:27:27,322 --> 00:27:28,388
process be waived and

1167
00:27:28,388 --> 00:27:30,075
recommends approval of

1168
00:27:30,075 --> 00:27:31,851
the acquisition of Toro Reelmaster for

1169
00:27:31,851 --> 00:27:34,015
$72,202.26. And

1170
00:27:34,015 --> 00:27:35,164
this would be due to the fact that

1171
00:27:35,164 --> 00:27:35,890
funds are

1172
00:27:35,890 --> 00:27:36,555
available for

1173
00:27:36,555 --> 00:27:37,643
capital expenditures

1174
00:27:37,643 --> 00:27:38,399
on machinery and

1175
00:27:38,399 --> 00:27:39,403
equipment.

1176
00:27:39,403 --> 00:27:40,669
Director Lefebvre, do you have

1177
00:27:40,669 --> 00:27:42,249
anything to add?

1178
00:27:42,249 --> 00:27:43,288
Nothing to add,

1179
00:27:43,288 --> 00:27:44,175
but always happy to

1180
00:27:44,175 --> 00:27:44,970
answer

1181
00:27:44,970 --> 00:27:45,775
questions.

1182
00:27:45,775 --> 00:27:46,622
or

1183
00:27:46,622 --> 00:27:49,456

00:28:02,023 --> 00:28:03,197
Please raise your hand

1194
00:28:03,197 --> 00:28:03,919

1196
00:28:05,042 --> 00:28:06,257
Not available online.

1197
00:28:06,257 --> 00:28:07,320
Okay, sir, please

1198
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:08,357

00:28:08,357 --> 00:28:09,366
state your name and

1200
00:28:09,366 --> 00:28:14,840

1201
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,267
My name is Gerald

1202
00:28:16,267 --> 00:28:19,263
Keith Dotson. 2370

1203
00:28:19,263 --> 00:28:21,734
Westgate Court, Canton

1204
00:28:21,734 --> 00:28:25,886
, Michigan. I strongly

1205
00:28:25,886 --> 00:28:27,136
support the brave

1206
00:28:27,136 --> 00:28:28,387
men and women of the

1207
00:28:28,387 --> 00:28:34,314
Canton Police. This is

1208
00:28:34,314 --> 00:28:35,666
not a photograph. This is a

1209
00:28:35,666 --> 00:28:37,826
memory. I got lost

1210
00:28:37,826 --> 00:28:39,147
on a main street in

1211
00:28:39,147 --> 00:28:45,630
Royal Oak, New York,

1212
00:28:45,630 --> 00:28:46,355
at night, and a

1213
00:28:46,355 --> 00:28:47,698
Royal Oak police officer

1214
00:28:47,698 --> 00:28:52,779
rescued me.

1215
00:28:52,779 --> 00:28:53,871
He brought me to the

1216
00:28:53,871 --> 00:28:54,673
police

1217
00:28:54,673 --> 00:28:57,118
station. And when

1218
00:28:57,118 --> 00:28:58,180
my

1219
00:28:58,180 --> 00:28:59,310
uncle came to pick me up, I was sitting on the

1220
00:28:59,310 --> 00:29:00,304
table, my

1221
00:29:00,304 --> 00:29:01,640
legs dangling, eating vanilla

1222
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,870
ice cream. That's what

1223
00:29:04,870 --> 00:29:06,455
police officers do.

1224
00:29:06,455 --> 00:29:08,622
They help us.

1225
00:29:08,622 --> 00:29:09,647
Day and night,

1226
00:29:09,647 --> 00:29:10,871
around the clock, they

1227
00:29:10,871 --> 00:29:12,808
protect us. If

1228
00:29:12,808 --> 00:29:13,871
you don't like

1229
00:29:13,871 --> 00:29:14,842
the police, if you

1230
00:29:14,842 --> 00:29:15,905
need help,

1231
00:29:15,905 --> 00:29:17,089
call the criminal

1232
00:29:17,089 --> 00:29:18,344
. I'm sure they

1233
00:29:18,344 --> 00:29:18,952
will come and

1234
00:29:18,952 --> 00:29:20,270
help you. I don't

1235
00:29:20,270 --> 00:29:21,391
believe in

1236
00:29:21,391 --> 00:29:22,544
defunding our

1237
00:29:22,544 --> 00:29:24,954
police officers. These are

1238
00:29:24,954 --> 00:29:26,268
shameful idiots who

1239
00:29:26,268 --> 00:29:27,399
think this won't

1240
00:29:27,399 --> 00:29:30,944
win. These brave

1241
00:29:30,944 --> 00:29:32,112
men and women of the

1242
00:29:32,112 --> 00:29:33,085
Canton Police

1243
00:29:33,085 --> 00:29:34,350
deserve our

1244
00:29:34,350 --> 00:29:35,128
support and

1245
00:29:35,128 --> 00:29:38,141
gratitude. We

1246
00:29:38,141 --> 00:29:39,582
support them 100%,

1247
00:29:39,582 --> 00:29:40,764
and no one, no one,

1248
00:29:40,764 --> 00:29:42,021
comes here to

1249
00:29:42,021 --> 00:29:43,461
Canton, Michigan

1250
00:29:43,461 --> 00:29:45,530
, and attacks a

1251
00:29:45,567 --> 00:29:47,900
Canton police officer. This is not in New

1252
00:29:47,900 --> 00:29:49,967
York. If I'm out there

1253
00:29:49,967 --> 00:29:51,332
on the sidewalk, I guarantee

1254
00:29:51,332 --> 00:29:52,526
you I won't stand

1255
00:29:52,526 --> 00:29:53,038
there and

1256
00:29:53,038 --> 00:29:56,088
watch.

1257
00:29:56,088 --> 00:29:57,039
There is no

1258
00:29:57,039 --> 00:29:58,052
tolerance in this community for

1259
00:29:58,052 --> 00:29:59,035
attacks on our

1260
00:29:59,035 --> 00:30:01,964
police officers. And I

1261
00:30:01,964 --> 00:30:03,437
want, because they are

1262
00:30:03,437 --> 00:30:04,992
my heroes, I honor them

1263
00:30:04,992 --> 00:30:07,129
all. Thank you.

1264
00:30:07,129 --> 00:30:08,860
very much. Uh, there are no other

1265
00:30:08,860 --> 00:30:10,158
comments in the room

1266
00:30:10,158 --> 00:30:11,745
. Okay, thank you.

1267
00:30:11,745 --> 00:30:12,905
Public discussion

1268
00:30:12,905 --> 00:30:13,881
is closed. Okay, we're

1269
00:30:13,881 --> 00:30:14,557
moving on to the

1270
00:30:14,557 --> 00:30:15,415
administrative

1271
00:30:15,415 --> 00:30:16,554
part. Patrick,

1272
00:30:16,554 --> 00:30:17,141

1273
00:30:17,141 --> 00:30:18,364
Eh, nothing more

1274
00:30:18,364 --> 00:30:19,925
to add. Thank you.

1275
00:30:19,925 --> 00:30:24,970

00:31:39,824 --> 00:31:40,895
It feels like

1342
00:31:40,895 --> 00:31:43,118
autumn. Yes.

1343
00:31:43,118 --> 00:31:45,614

00:31:45,614 --> 00:31:47,831
Thank you. Summer?

1345
00:31:47,831 --> 00:31:48,622
Well, I was going to

00:31:48,622 --> 00:31:49,686
say "happy

1347
00:31:49,686 --> 00:31:50,873
autumnal equinox

1348
00:31:50,873 --> 00:31:52,060
," so Kate stole my

1349
00:31:52,060 --> 00:31:52,434
thunder.

1350
00:31:52,434 --> 00:31:53,375
You could say "

1351
00:31:53,375 --> 00:31:54,281
Happy

1352
00:31:54,281 --> 00:31:55,359
Hobbit Day."

1353
00:31:55,359 --> 00:31:57,721
Of course. What

1354
00:31:57,721 --> 00:31:59,859
kind of thing is this?

1355
00:31:59,859 --> 00:32:01,681
How is Michael? We know

1356
00:32:01,681 --> 00:32:03,067

1357
00:32:03,067 --> 00:32:04,063

1358
00:32:04,063 --> 00:32:04,803

1359
00:32:04,803 --> 00:32:07,020
We have a lot of things to do.

1360
00:32:07,020 --> 00:32:08,022
It seems like I'm having the

1361
00:32:08,022 --> 00:32:09,024
autumnal

1362
00:32:09,024 --> 00:32:10,260
equinox more often today

1363
00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:11,596
than I've ever had in my entire life.

1364
00:32:11,596 --> 00:32:18,061
This is exciting. Hmm, we'll

1365
00:32:18,061 --> 00:32:19,285
send out absentee

1366
00:32:19,285 --> 00:32:24,804

1367
00:32:24,804 --> 00:32:29,446
2 days later, September 24th.

1368
00:32:29,446 --> 00:32:31,074
And we have 25,000 of the 72,000

1369
00:32:31,074 --> 00:32:31,865

1370

00:32:33,215 --> 00:32:35,076
voters in Canton who

1372
00:32:35,076 --> 00:32:40,459

1373
00:32:40,459 --> 00:32:42,891
, this speaks about you.

1374
00:32:42,891 --> 00:32:44,157
Okay, Mr. Dodson is

1375
00:32:44,157 --> 00:32:45,678
one of them. So that's

1376
00:32:45,678 --> 00:32:46,789
about a third of

1377
00:32:46,789 --> 00:32:48,095
our registered

1378
00:32:48,095 --> 00:32:51,282
voters. Hmm, they

1379
00:32:51,282 --> 00:32:52,525
should get

1380
00:32:52,525 --> 00:32:53,885
their ballots

1381
00:32:53,885 --> 00:32:55,128
anytime starting

1382
00:32:55,128 --> 00:32:56,681
Monday, like the

1383
00:32:56,681 --> 00:33:00,418
28th. Hmm, it might still take them

1384
00:33:00,454 --> 00:33:01,465
a little while to

1385
00:33:01,465 --> 00:33:03,886
get there. Um, we're

1386
00:33:03,886 --> 00:33:05,173
asking people, if

1387
00:33:05,173 --> 00:33:06,460
you don't find your

1388
00:33:06,460 --> 00:33:07,783
ballot in your

1389
00:33:07,783 --> 00:33:09,141
mailbox by October 9th, to

1390
00:33:09,141 --> 00:33:10,392
contact my

1391
00:33:10,392 --> 00:33:12,482
office. Maybe not in

1392
00:33:12,482 --> 00:33:13,764
the next few days.

1393
00:33:13,764 --> 00:33:14,939
Give it some

1394
00:33:14,939 --> 00:33:15,900
time. Uh, some

1395
00:33:15,900 --> 00:33:16,802
local post

1396
00:33:16,802 --> 00:33:17,883
offices like to

1397
00:33:17,883 --> 00:33:19,085
redirect mail

1398
00:33:19,085 --> 00:33:20,051
to larger ones. Um, in

1399
00:33:20,051 --> 00:33:20,495
big

1400
00:33:20,495 --> 00:33:21,293
bureaucratic

1401
00:33:21,293 --> 00:33:22,002
systems you

1402
00:33:22,002 --> 00:33:22,622
have to

1403
00:33:22,622 --> 00:33:23,627
make excuses,

1404
00:33:23,627 --> 00:33:24,779
so they increase the

1405
00:33:24,779 --> 00:33:25,937
volume of mail. And so

1406
00:33:25,937 --> 00:33:26,957
a lot of these, um,

1407
00:33:26,957 --> 00:33:28,180
U.S. Postal Services,

1408
00:33:28,180 --> 00:33:29,438
they send mail to

1409
00:33:29,438 --> 00:33:30,729
larger centers to

1410
00:33:30,729 --> 00:33:31,986
then send it

1411
00:33:31,986 --> 00:33:33,210
back, um, to

1412
00:33:33,210 --> 00:33:34,297
adjust their

1413
00:33:34,297 --> 00:33:35,317
statistics a little bit, which I

1414
00:33:35,317 --> 00:33:36,428
understand. This is what

1415
00:33:36,428 --> 00:33:37,681
happens when you

1416
00:33:37,681 --> 00:33:38,954
work in government. Um,

1417
00:33:38,954 --> 00:33:40,127
but, um, yeah, just

1418
00:33:40,127 --> 00:33:41,065
remember that the

1419
00:33:41,065 --> 00:33:43,009
ballots may take a

1420
00:33:43,042 --> 00:33:44,374
few more days to arrive. Um, but

1421
00:33:44,374 --> 00:33:45,654
keep an eye on this. Please

1422
00:33:45,654 --> 00:33:47,041
contact us if you don't

1423
00:33:47,041 --> 00:33:48,428
receive them by the 9th

1424
00:33:48,428 --> 00:33:50,051
. Additionally, if

1425
00:33:50,051 --> 00:33:51,012
you are traveling

1426
00:33:51,012 --> 00:33:52,317
within the next 2

1427
00:33:52,317 --> 00:33:53,689
weeks, election mail will

1428
00:33:53,689 --> 00:33:56,232
not be forwarded.

1429
00:33:56,232 --> 00:33:57,594
So, your ballot will not

1430
00:33:57,594 --> 00:33:58,816
be delivered, um, to

1431
00:33:58,816 --> 00:33:59,969
whatever

1432
00:33:59,969 --> 00:34:01,296
destination you

1433
00:34:01,296 --> 00:34:02,693
are headed to, and it will also,

1434
00:34:02,693 --> 00:34:03,392
um, not be

1435
00:34:03,392 --> 00:34:05,464
delayed. He

1436
00:34:05,464 --> 00:34:06,876
will come back. This is a

1437
00:34:06,876 --> 00:34:08,185
security feature, um,

1438
00:34:08,185 --> 00:34:09,529
to make sure that

1439
00:34:09,529 --> 00:34:10,731
only individuals, um, who

1440
00:34:10,731 --> 00:34:11,509
are eligible to

1441
00:34:11,509 --> 00:34:12,889
receive ballots

1442
00:34:12,889 --> 00:34:14,108
receive them. So,

1443
00:34:14,108 --> 00:34:14,676
please

1444
00:34:14,676 --> 00:34:15,596
contact my

1445
00:34:15,596 --> 00:34:16,353
office if you

1446
00:34:16,353 --> 00:34:17,435
are traveling within the

1447
00:34:17,435 --> 00:34:18,382
next 2 weeks

1448
00:34:18,382 --> 00:34:19,004
so we can

1449
00:34:19,004 --> 00:34:19,843
make sure we

1450
00:34:19,843 --> 00:34:20,519
have a

1451
00:34:20,519 --> 00:34:21,466
valid address for you,

1452
00:34:21,466 --> 00:34:22,142
or we can

1453
00:34:22,142 --> 00:34:22,791
keep your

1454
00:34:22,791 --> 00:34:24,658
newsletter here and we won't have to

1455
00:34:24,685 --> 00:34:25,361
deal with

1456
00:34:25,361 --> 00:34:26,467
mailing it. So,

1457
00:34:26,467 --> 00:34:27,622
just remember

1458
00:34:27,622 --> 00:34:29,474
that. Early

1459
00:34:29,474 --> 00:34:30,385
voting

1460
00:34:30,385 --> 00:34:31,811
will begin in a

1461
00:34:31,811 --> 00:34:33,832
couple of weeks, on October 24th.

1462
00:34:33,832 --> 00:34:34,882
This is 9 days before

1463
00:34:34,882 --> 00:34:38,292
the election. So, while it

1464
00:34:38,292 --> 00:34:39,638
may seem like a long way off to you all

1465
00:34:39,638 --> 00:34:40,666
,

1466
00:34:40,666 --> 00:34:41,375
the election has already

1467
00:34:41,375 --> 00:34:42,686
begun in my

1468
00:34:42,686 --> 00:34:45,188
office. So, we

1469
00:34:45,188 --> 00:34:50,045
work there. We will also be

1470
00:34:50,045 --> 00:34:51,164
sending out little

1471
00:34:51,164 --> 00:34:52,097
cards to every

1472
00:34:52,097 --> 00:34:53,340
household in Canton that has a

1473
00:34:53,340 --> 00:34:54,242
registered

1474
00:34:54,242 --> 00:34:55,455
voter, because for

1475
00:34:55,455 --> 00:34:56,605
those who choose not to

1476
00:34:56,605 --> 00:34:57,693
vote absentee,

1477
00:34:57,693 --> 00:34:58,595
or for those who

1478
00:34:58,595 --> 00:34:59,279
choose not to

1479
00:34:59,279 --> 00:34:59,931
vote

1480
00:34:59,931 --> 00:35:00,740
early at

1481
00:35:00,740 --> 00:35:01,672
Summit in the Park,

1482
00:35:01,672 --> 00:35:02,698
that is, for those who

1483
00:35:02,698 --> 00:35:03,227
choose

1484
00:35:03,227 --> 00:35:04,439
to vote on

1485
00:35:04,439 --> 00:35:05,403
Election Day at their

1486
00:35:05,403 --> 00:35:06,460
precinct, many of

1487
00:35:06,460 --> 00:35:10,460
these locations have changed.

1488
00:35:10,460 --> 00:35:11,664
If you participated

1489
00:35:11,664 --> 00:35:12,932
in the August election and

1490
00:35:12,932 --> 00:35:14,169
voted on

1491
00:35:14,169 --> 00:35:15,437
Election Day, you probably

1492
00:35:15,437 --> 00:35:16,229
found out where

1493
00:35:16,229 --> 00:35:17,244
your

1494
00:35:17,244 --> 00:35:18,515
polling place was. And

1495
00:35:18,515 --> 00:35:19,599
we sent a new

1496
00:35:19,599 --> 00:35:20,846
voter ID to

1497
00:35:20,846 --> 00:35:21,930
every voter in

1498
00:35:21,930 --> 00:35:23,890
Canton. However, I

1499
00:35:23,890 --> 00:35:25,216
also live a busy

1500
00:35:25,216 --> 00:35:26,441
life and don't pay

1501
00:35:26,441 --> 00:35:27,529
attention to all my

1502
00:35:27,529 --> 00:35:29,771
mail. And I often

1503
00:35:29,771 --> 00:35:30,928
find myself in the same

1504
00:35:30,928 --> 00:35:32,301
place I usually

1505
00:35:32,301 --> 00:35:33,494
go, because I'm a person of

1506
00:35:33,494 --> 00:35:36,567
habit. So we are

1507
00:35:36,567 --> 00:35:37,978
sending out a flyer,

1508
00:35:37,978 --> 00:35:39,389
informing people on

1509
00:35:39,389 --> 00:35:41,487
one hand of their

1510
00:35:41,524 --> 00:35:42,428
early

1511
00:35:42,428 --> 00:35:43,441
voting opportunities at

1512
00:35:43,441 --> 00:35:44,852
the summit from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. 9

1513
00:35:44,852 --> 00:35:46,155
days before the election, and on the

1514
00:35:46,155 --> 00:35:46,951
other hand

1515
00:35:46,951 --> 00:35:48,290
informing them of

1516
00:35:48,290 --> 00:35:49,592
their new

1517
00:35:49,592 --> 00:35:53,293
voting location. Not

1518
00:35:53,293 --> 00:35:54,537
just the address, but

1519
00:35:54,537 --> 00:35:55,747
a photo of the building

1520
00:35:55,747 --> 00:35:56,891
and a small map

1521
00:35:56,891 --> 00:35:58,236
to help them

1522
00:35:58,236 --> 00:36:00,959
get there. So we

1523
00:36:00,959 --> 00:36:02,123
do everything we can

1524
00:36:02,123 --> 00:36:03,319
to provide voters with

1525
00:36:03,319 --> 00:36:04,159
all the

1526
00:36:04,159 --> 00:36:05,064
information they need to

1527
00:36:05,064 --> 00:36:06,227
vote the way

1528
00:36:06,227 --> 00:36:08,157
they choose.

1529
00:36:08,157 --> 00:36:09,199
Nevertheless, please

1530
00:36:09,199 --> 00:36:10,004
come and

1531
00:36:10,004 --> 00:36:12,431
vote.

1532
00:36:12,431 --> 00:36:13,299
Thank you.

1533
00:36:13,299 --> 00:36:14,479
Please.

1534
00:36:14,479 --> 00:36:15,593
So, today I had

1535
00:36:15,593 --> 00:36:17,067
lunch at Waltonwood. They

1536
00:36:17,067 --> 00:36:17,902
had a

1537
00:36:17,902 --> 00:36:19,066
centennial party there for

1538
00:36:19,066 --> 00:36:19,693
people who had

1539
00:36:19,693 --> 00:36:20,928
turned 100 years old.

1540
00:36:20,928 --> 00:36:21,818
They are trying to

1541
00:36:21,818 --> 00:36:22,680
break the record for

1542
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:23,209
the number of

1543
00:36:23,209 --> 00:36:23,988
centenarians in

1544
00:36:23,988 --> 00:36:25,377
one place. Hmm, there

1545
00:36:25,377 --> 00:36:27,193
were 11 centenarians,

1546
00:36:27,193 --> 00:36:29,009
ranging in age from 999 to 105. Um,

1547
00:36:29,009 --> 00:36:30,872
they didn't break the record

1548
00:36:30,872 --> 00:36:32,258
, there were only 11 of them.

1549
00:36:32,258 --> 00:36:33,310
The record still

1550
00:36:33,310 --> 00:36:36,045
stands in Macomb.

1551
00:36:36,045 --> 00:36:37,149
So next year

1552
00:36:37,149 --> 00:36:38,313
they will try again

1553
00:36:38,313 --> 00:36:39,959
. So we're going to

1554
00:36:39,989 --> 00:36:41,108
advertise this widely. But it

1555
00:36:41,108 --> 00:36:42,098
was...They opened

1556
00:36:42,098 --> 00:36:43,101
it to the public.

1557
00:36:43,101 --> 00:36:44,027
They had one person

1558
00:36:44,027 --> 00:36:44,956
from the public.

1559
00:36:44,956 --> 00:36:45,611
Most of them

1560
00:36:45,611 --> 00:36:46,311
came from other

1561
00:36:46,311 --> 00:36:47,102
nursing homes

1562
00:36:47,102 --> 00:36:48,165
. But it

1563
00:36:48,165 --> 00:36:49,234
was a lot of fun.

1564
00:36:49,234 --> 00:36:51,458
Very fun. Okay, is there

1565
00:36:51,458 --> 00:36:52,431
anything else I

1566
00:36:52,431 --> 00:36:53,910
missed? Good.

1567
00:36:53,910 --> 00:36:55,391
So, Happy Centennial Day. Happy

1568
00:36:55,391 --> 00:36:56,756
first day of autumn.

1569
00:36:56,756 --> 00:36:57,404
Um, can I

1570
00:36:57,404 --> 00:36:57,948
ask for a

1571
00:36:57,948 --> 00:36:58,430
postponement of the

1572
00:36:58,430 --> 00:36:58,928
meeting?

1573
00:36:58,928 --> 00:36:59,877
So I'm trying. I

1574
00:36:59,877 --> 00:37:00,609
support.

1575
00:37:00,609 --> 00:37:01,322
The motion was made by

1576
00:37:01,322 --> 00:37:01,965
Clerk Siegrist,

1577
00:37:01,965 --> 00:37:02,726
seconded by Trustee

1578
00:37:02,726 --> 00:37:04,183
Foster. All "for" - "I".

1579
00:37:04,183 --> 00:37:05,269
"Against" - "

1580
00:37:05,269 --> 00:37:06,270
no". The meeting

1581
00:37:06,270 --> 00:37:07,963
has been postponed. Thank you.

1582
00:37:07,963 --> 00:37:09,594
Good night.
