[0:01] Okay, it is Wednesday, August 19th at 6 p.m. We're meeting at the CWM, West Special Service District Boardroom for our monthly meeting. Is there any public comments?

[0:19] Let's go to, we're going down this list pretty quick. Let's go to item number one, bills. So everybody have a chance to,

[0:36] it's on the back of your agenda.

[0:37] I have a big one for semi-right engineering.

[0:43] How many more built do we owe now?

[0:44] How many?

[0:45] We're just about down there.

[0:51] Yeah.

[0:55] So we have paid Moon Lake or cut out a check for Moon Lake for some of the stuff.

[1:00] Yes.

[1:00] That was for the pole and the wire and the work to get it to that one at that point.

[1:05] There will be an addition possible.

[1:06] It is possible, yes.

[1:08] Yes.

[1:13] I make a motion to approve the bill, so they are written.

[1:18] Thank you.

[1:19] How often do we pay for that for the lawyers?

[1:23] Quarterly.

[1:24] Quarterly.

[1:32] Okay.

[1:34] Any other questions?

[1:42] If not, do we?

[1:44] We've got a motion.

[1:47] I'll second it.

[1:49] Give second.

[1:50] Any second?

[1:52] All in favor?

[1:53] Aye.

[1:53] Any opposed?

[1:54] There was none, motion carries.

[2:01] It's been a minute.

[2:04] Through a minute.

[2:11] Oh.

[2:12] We're going to make a motion to approve the minutes as collected.

[2:19] Right and playburn's name was not right.

[2:25] For your product.

[2:26] Oh yeah.

[2:26] That's a good thing, okay.

[2:28] And also there was a system wasn't in there. He's a system manager not the manager. That was added

[2:36] There's a long person's name or his name was just spelled wrong. His last name was just like I don't even know. It wasn't even spelled

[2:44] The letters for all there the spring grind order

[2:53] Okay,

[2:56] we have a motion

[2:58] for approval of the bills.

[2:59] I'll second formation.

[3:01] The second, all in favor?

[3:03] Aye.

[3:04] Any opposed?

[3:05] There's no motion carries.

[3:08] Okay, well, what item number three?

[3:11] We can go over this quick.

[3:12] We've had a discussion just in Preston.

[3:15] You can go over just briefly what you was talking about.

[3:18] What you want to do down here?

[3:20] So I'm just looking for two new connections.

[3:23] Go ahead along the road.

[3:28] Call it in.

[3:30] Okay. You're going to bring up any of the other stuff that you're looking to. Okay. Okay.

[3:36] Okay. Okay. And we will proceed on that when we get information from the county for that.

[3:45] Okay. That's where we're at on that.

[3:53] When he's done talking. No. You're not before on the list.

[3:59] that's where we're at. Okay, we'll come up and board.

[4:08] Okay, so back in in October

[4:12] last year,

[4:15] purchased a one-inch water connection and a three-quarter-inch water

[4:21] connection with install. And then about two months later I think in December I

[4:29] got approached by Russ

[4:34] the War, do-or-do-or, and said that I owed even another $4,000 for that

[4:39] connection.

[4:41] And so I went back to my, well, first of all, my connection size was wrong, and then,

[4:46] and so I shouldn't have hooked on, and the reason I needed to come and not focus on building

[4:50] buildings, and so I wasn't able to use it then, but I, and they said, we won't be able to change

[4:55] it, and I talked to Allen about it, so I can't change it too late in the year.

[5:01] And so I decided to wait till spring, but in the meantime, like I said, I got approached

[5:05] and said that I was to owe less $4,000 for the connection.

[5:11] So when I looked at my contract, it clearly states my contract that the impact is $2,000.

[5:17] And the connection fee is $4,000.

[5:19] And the connection fee includes the meter installation and inspection.

[5:25] So, I was just wondering, and he hasn't been paid yet, and I'm not too often concerned

[5:29] about him not being, well, I am, but it sounds like to owe anybody anything, but according

[5:36] to my contract, I've already paid the connection fee.

[5:44] Okay, do we have any comments?

[5:49] What was you told, nothing else was told from the office or anything on that, for a contractor

[5:54] or how did you end up getting him as a contractor?

[6:01] I had no decision making authority on that, so recently

[6:12] I signed a given mountain land

[6:14] and I asked him what happened and he said why I went and replaced the meter.

[6:19] I said that's all well and good.

[6:20] Did you replace the line between the meter and the connection?

[6:26] Did they want it?

[6:26] They said no.

[6:28] I was told not to change that, just put it in one inch meter.

[6:36] So that line should have been changed out between the tap.

[6:40] Who told you not to do that?

[6:42] Because I thought he was going to change the whole thing.

[6:45] We weren't going to read tap because it's the same tap,

[6:48] but it's one inch or three quarters, the same rail hole.

[6:51] Well, the drill hole.

[6:52] Not to my understanding, the drill hole is three quarters inch.

[6:57] So my one inch tap and the three quarters tap,

[7:00] the drill hole is the drill itself is the same bit size.

[7:03] So is it a 1-inch valve or a 3-4-inch valve?

[7:07] So it'd be on there right now, would be a 3-4-inch valve.

[7:14] Which is a 3-4-inch connection.

[7:17] So, and I heard that that might happen.

[7:20] So I asked him, and he said, yes, that's what happened.

[7:24] So part of the mining concern about that

[7:27] is when I sized the line, I put it a 2-inch line,

[7:30] And Aaron, we talked, and I asked for a 1 inch and a half.

[7:35] Because I was thinking Roosevelt offers an inch and a half.

[7:39] And we've been right in between the price

[7:41] of the 1 inch and 2 inch.

[7:42] And I think with a 2 inch, we've got two steep,

[7:44] a couple thousand more.

[7:46] Each and a half would have been 1,000 more.

[7:47] That's what Roosevelt started.

[7:49] So I went with the ones knowing that it was smaller

[7:52] than I wanted anyway.

[7:55] But I was willing to go with that just because of the cost.

[7:58] So my preference would be by the choice I'd rather two inch and pay the extra than a three-quarter inch.

[8:07] So what needs to be done there to resolve this, with this to resolve the plumbing part on it?

[8:15] So if you left the wall needs a lot of three-quarter inch line and every double inch and change it out to the wall needs line.

[8:23] So that's something we need to look at getting done.

[8:27] And again, if it'd make it a little more work your time I'd rather just pay the extra

[8:32] thousand get a two inch I just I just don't want to be that would have to be

[8:35] reborn wouldn't it? That would be a recap. Is it in a spot where we could do a new

[8:44] connection the two inch that he wants and then is that three-quarter inch in a spot

[8:49] to use by some builds.

[8:52] Down there?

[8:53] Nothing there.

[8:54] There's nothing there.

[8:57] That was going on down there.

[9:01] What would it take?

[9:05] To re-tap that same existing hole.

[9:08] We have two options.

[9:10] Cabot.

[9:11] I believe it doesn't have that connection.

[9:13] There's a cab.

[9:15] And then re-tap that can be down from there.

[9:18] at the two-metre connection, or turn off the line, drain it down slightly and then re-tap it,

[9:27] because otherwise if we re-tap the tap without turning that line on, it's going to pull it out.

[9:31] Yeah, it's going to release the pressure at home. So those are two options here. It's a potential

[9:37] leaks, but we're going to kill the line. Kill it when down time would be two hours.

[9:42] I don't know where that tap is probably now probably where the valve is up above they might be at least eight homes now so connection is about is dreaded on the corner for a

[9:56] Tiders place the one going south. Yeah, everything south will be dead. Yeah, but you're

[10:04] the water manager. I would recommend getting line and tap it properly to the two main sides just because it's a potential

[10:14] week spot. We'll be digging it up eventually as we can. Yeah.

[10:21] Can you two work that out?

[10:22] And then we can know when you're going to do it. If you need assistance somebody to help you

[10:26] or watch things or... Yeah, we can make some guidance on who's doing what and who's paying for it.

[10:33] Yeah, well that's the issue there is the pain. We'll probably have to take care of it.

[10:40] So I'm going to contract your line now to do that. Okay. Kim Blanchard might be, yes.

[10:46] That was my thought.

[10:48] It gives them finance.

[10:51] So if you want up size to the two,

[10:54] you can be to talk to them.

[10:55] Yeah, and rather, I'd rather do that.

[10:57] Then do we have a few inch south?

[10:59] Does it help you guys to be able to purchase all of that?

[11:02] I think we might have a 12-inch south viker.

[11:05] But, I doubt we have a center.

[11:07] I don't think I've seen anything two-inch at all.

[11:11] So when you get material rounded up,

[11:14] And we've got one already that we need to purchase, but just purchase two or three.

[11:20] Well, yeah, we've got to watch this year.

[11:22] Then as we go, we might as well be waiting soon.

[11:27] So cost to win up since that, we've approved a support, a cost change.

[11:34] So you're looking at $22.50 is what you're looking at in addition.

[11:38] But then also you'd be on a commercial connection and you'd be paying $140 a month.

[11:43] Maybe that's why, because I talked to Judy after we had talked to her, to Judy about

[11:51] that.

[11:51] And the reason why we didn't offer one and a half inches because we discontinued them.

[11:55] So we went from three quarter, one inch, and then we went to commercial connections at

[12:00] two inches.

[12:01] That makes sense.

[12:02] And then us.

[12:03] Yeah, because it was 2,000 higher than you said, it's 225 now, then it's considered commercial

[12:09] So it was from the 70 base to 140, what do you do get eight thousand double the water you get

[12:17] stripping out for that 140.

[12:22] What is the total because I know

[12:25] I'm bringing through this there was a certain allotment that you guys like to

[12:29] stay within as far as home is that correct say 1000 but that's the that's the first

[12:35] eight thousand is included with the 70 crores. Right, so it'd be 16,000 for that

[12:40] portion. But is it unlimited, I guess, after the 8,000? Oh, then you go into the...

[12:45] You know, I know that, but I mean, if I'm willing to pay those overage fees, can I take as much water as I want?

[12:53] The overage fees just go up and up and up. It's a key. It's a key, it's a key, it's a key.

[12:58] So the more you use, the more you can use the water.

[13:02] When we could do it, Ashley Valley did and go like 35,000 above is 2250,000.

[13:13] That's not the bad case.

[13:15] We haven't gotten to that point because we'd like to share water or sell the water.

[13:20] If you want to use 200,000 gallons a month, yeah, it's going to cost you.

[13:25] Okay.

[13:26] I mean, you're going to be doing water trucks.

[13:27] That's what I, well, I've got an arena down there and that's part of the reason I needed the, the bigger connection is because

[13:33] Trying to fill a water truck might take a while through it's recording it in the order and stuff

[13:38] So you're not going to turn around and sell it does

[13:41] Result, okay, it's actually to fill and just put it on the arena and so I'll fill the water truck and

[13:47] It's just an outdoor arena that I'm working on right there

[13:51] Start test control. Yeah, just control. Just know at that point. You're probably gonna hit the 150% mark

[13:57] At that point, the Davids who lived just below you, he came out, they have a have a well and they had the culinary.

[14:06] Well, he didn't realize what was connected until they got a bill.

[14:11] Yeah.

[14:12] And we're not as nice as Roosevelt with bills, so.

[14:17] Well,

[14:21] for one or two months, it isn't the biggest year I ever sold that place.

[14:25] It might be, well, I mean, if somebody buys that and they're doing the marine,

[14:45] And the percentages haven't changed, or the, in your packet there, the percentages haven't

[14:54] changed.

[14:54] If you look at the schedule there, that hasn't changed, just that we've went up $250 on each.

[15:00] The connexions.

[15:04] Let's get together, Helen. I mean, how to make a final, maybe give you on some of the costs. Is the escalation cost pretty much the same for a thousand after you hit the base on commercial and residential? It's a same percentage. It goes up, it goes up 105% for two thousand, well, probably 4,000 gallons, I think in between. And it tears up. Once you hit a that tear that's

[15:31] listed in there. Once it hits that tier, it's 150%. So it re-amortizes everything at that point.

[15:39] So we had to put those into place to protect us as showing that we're being conserved, you know,

[15:46] conserved as error. Let's see. I mean, they have to agree too with that. So that we're conserving

[15:52] our water. Okay. We're being diligence. Well, so if I'm understanding the question, I know it's

[15:59] got to be a poor decision. But if I do go to the two inch, then it would be another $2,225.

[16:08] $250, sure.

[16:09] Okay.

[16:09] $2,250.

[16:15] And then everything else is...

[16:18] You've taken care of everything else?

[16:20] Okay.

[16:24] And I don't know if any use to the poor. I didn't look at some of the others and Roosevelt's

[16:29] in the same level of fees just to see, because it did give me thinking, like, am I thinking

[16:34] in correct areas or is it something wrong? But I just called around to a few different

[16:41] ones, just, and I don't know that it makes any difference. But, NAZR was 3,325 for a free

[16:47] quarter-inch, but they don't have any impact fee, and that included the meter installation.

[16:51] and Bernal was $1,000 in fact the $375 for the meters,

[16:57] and then the landowner, the developer,

[16:59] whoever puts in the installation,

[17:02] so I'd have to find something to do that.

[17:04] Roosevelt was a $3,000 in fact fee,

[17:06] and then $3,000 for the meter in the install,

[17:09] and then Johnson Water just $2,500 for an impact fee,

[17:12] and 1,500 for the meter in install.

[17:15] So it's very kind of similar to when I got that additional

[17:24] I heard the Arnold Friedman, the Secretary of Justice of many, I heard him do it for him since I talked to Harvard all over the world.

[17:35] And many of them don't know how to read so that I've never met a former professor on account.

[17:47] I hate to say a pencil pusher, because I don't like that phrase either, but I do like

[17:52] that.

[17:52] If you're a farmer, you're a pencilie, yeah.

[17:56] So, well, if that's the case and if that's the decision for it, then I can work that

[18:02] out with Alan and I can work that out with Aaron and we'll go from there to make the final

[18:05] decision.

[18:07] The only other thing I was going to bring up, and I'm not asking for that, I was just

[18:11] going to mention it if it became an issue, and the things that I've already paid, even

[18:20] though I haven't been able to have access to water, I'm not worried about that as long

[18:22] as I'm going to get fixed, which isn't a ton, it's 600 bucks or whatever.

[18:27] Is your line already ran from the meter over to where you were going?

[18:31] It was since last December, last year there.

[18:34] So you're just right for that infrastructure, okay?

[18:39] So there's three lines to be completely honest.

[18:45] Larry, not Larry, Dwayne Reston and his son and I are all ran.

[18:52] We're just the only reason I haven't hooked them is because I didn't want to.

[18:55] I didn't want to hook them in and have to re-date.

[18:58] So I was just going to dig everything up at once.

[19:00] I have everything hooked in at once and then bury it all together.

[19:04] Are you running them lines for them also in the same trench or yeah.

[19:10] So I've got them paralleled but I know and I've got mine marked so I put tracer wire

[19:15] through the whole thing.

[19:17] Just for yours.

[19:19] It'll be for all of it because it's on the same trench.

[19:24] So it's just the south one, the middle one, the north one, you know who's this who's

[19:29] the South, Larry's is the middle, and his son is the middle, and his son is the north.

[19:39] With that information you've just given?

[19:42] So I have information about that too, because is Larry Dwayne's son, is that how that works?

[19:50] So the sun or the nephew is who it was that contact us was wanting to subdivide the property and so it's a family thing so that may be part of this too as well.

[20:03] They're wanting to take water up to that will be kind of back in that northeast corner of the property and so the problem so I raised this concern with the board before approving anything like that to happen

[20:17] because they need to go to the county and do their due diligence because we're

[20:22] not going to allow them to take Dwayne's connection. So Dwayne's connection is

[20:29] for his parcel. We have statutes in the district that state that we have one

[20:34] connection per parcel that parcels for Dwayne's parcel. So when his nephew builds

[20:40] that house back in the north behind there, that's a new parcel at that point and that is a

[20:50] new connection for the district. So that would need to be rent and paid for. Yes, so I ran this

[20:56] separate line for that and that's the north line in the trench and it goes clear up to those meters

[21:02] as well and all three of them are just kind of stuffed up there and waiting for this to be

[21:07] and then we'll all hook on at the same time.

[21:09] So he should have paid for any connection for it.

[21:13] I'm going to have to, because his line runs

[21:16] from those meters clear back.

[21:19] There's no way for him to,

[21:21] and we've already got it to line,

[21:22] so there's no way for him to tap into Larry's line.

[21:25] That was my concern there.

[21:27] So he does need to before he can even do that.

[21:29] He's gonna have to come in by,

[21:31] he's paying for your connection.

[21:33] Because Duane pays for a connection right now,

[21:35] Which is a standby for that parcel, but Duane's son I guess is who we're talking about that you've run the line up to

[21:42] Yeah, that is a dead connection as far as we're concerned until it's paid for because it hasn't been subdivided through the county yet

[21:49] because there's a family a

[21:51] Family whatever bear from what I understand that dad or uncle was going to they were gonna sign something

[21:58] Quick quick claim deed that property to him so they could get the parcel done that has not been

[22:05] done. And so that's a problem for us. Okay, um, there were, Alan, you can

[22:13] correct. There were three connections in that are three meters installed in

[22:17] that area. I don't know if one was somebody else, but there was two the way

[22:22] it back. The way Sun has one. Has he not been paying a bill? No. So there's

[22:28] only, there's only Duane that's there. And he was a pre-existing connection

[22:33] that was there that says on an old standby and then there was hatches that was put

[22:39] in next to JR's up there and then so those two are the only two connections I

[22:45] knew about we knew about when you had submitted and come to the board prior and

[22:49] ask about that possibly helping Dwayne at that point that's what we have on

[22:53] record is helping Dwayne but now that's changed because Dwayne's son apparently

[22:59] is wanting to be able to house back there and has not went through the process.

[23:04] And so he paid me for the water line as long as I made all that waste, whether he gets

[23:09] a mix or not.

[23:11] Yeah.

[23:13] Well, at least now we know that there's a lot going on there.

[23:17] Because it is good to know because I was thinking that it put it in when we put the line down

[23:24] there.

[23:25] That's what I'm thinking.

[23:26] I was thinking there's two of them.

[23:28] Thank you there one and one free sound is already there

[23:42] So his son did paper one

[23:48] It was when when they put the line in it was

[23:51] The work of the are you okay with all that and yeah, you know little work things out

[23:56] You have questions you'll come in to talk to

[23:57] Eric, would you just let me know when that is done again and I'm not trying to be too

[24:03] but in just that I can visually see it?

[24:07] So yeah, we'll have them come in and we're just going to remove that entirety of the

[24:12] place.

[24:13] We'll fill that line.

[24:14] Put a two inch in its place.

[24:16] Okay.

[24:16] We'll take the satellite off.

[24:17] Everything will be all two inch.

[24:19] But yeah, I'll put up on the call you and let me do that.

[24:21] Okay.

[24:21] I'm going to have to work parts.

[24:23] Okay.

[24:24] I don't know how long we'll take because we don't have any two inch meters.

[24:32] I think he's going to schedule it the second week in the, or second Tuesday in November or

[24:38] for the first Tuesday election day.

[24:42] That's great.

[24:45] Yeah.

[24:47] I don't know about that before.

[24:49] Yeah, right.

[24:52] I didn't think you guys did connections that not made me here.

[24:56] We don't.

[24:57] We don't.

[24:59] That's what you're doing.

[25:00] Yes, but we might have to to remedy this.

[25:04] It has to be remedy.

[25:05] We can't wait for it called to do it.

[25:07] It has to be done.

[25:09] It usually takes a couple of years to skip meters, so that's part of it.

[25:13] We might have meters of practice for a long time, so.

[25:16] You know what I mean, and I'm not complaining, but I was hauling water in and things to

[25:22] compact and to force the man to never be else, and it would be nice to have it there.

[25:28] But I'll go through my, since I'm a numbers guy, I'll go through my budget and see if I can

[25:37] and if I cannot get to check another 22-50% and then if you'll find out how long parts

[25:47] that I get here, that might weigh in on this issue too, if it's going to be far out there

[25:53] then we'll be familiar with the language, but I have the parts in mind, and if you guys are

[25:58] willing to do an exchange in place, we might have to see if we can get some order more

[26:05] the target free news.

[26:06] Yeah.

[26:06] Oh, I have the parks for to make sure you mind, and I know that I can do the district and

[26:11] the district just for places that I want.

[26:13] The way I can do that.

[26:14] I'm working.

[26:15] See, now I'm leaving the workforce for me.

[26:18] Okay.

[26:19] I just settled on them.

[26:23] And I'll try to get that out of the gun for me, so if you do it, even if you take the picture

[26:36] I'll try to get everything taken care of tomorrow and then I'll be gone for a week and then

[26:43] back.

[26:43] Yeah, but that happens between a cool and not-and-a-trade, but I think you're taking care of my actually.

[26:50] Yeah.

[26:51] All my calls in the morning, and then I'll go get with you in the morning, and Kay will be there.

[26:55] Sounds good.

[26:56] Kay, made the decision on there.

[26:58] Let's move on down to item number five.

[27:01] We're going to table out one.

[27:03] See you there.

[27:06] Have a good night, JR.

[27:08] Okay, item number six.

[27:10] Yes.

[27:12] This is about city contracts.

[27:16] We don't need any recommendation other than we're just going to send back the original.

[27:21] I think that's only needed to say is that we're going to send back the original one.

[27:24] What's going to be about city?

[27:26] I think the annual state is like 15 cents and 35 cents and it can send by them doing the

[27:34] math along the other matters.

[27:36] I don't know that it matters, but it is what they wanted originally.

[27:41] They wanted to see it out.

[27:43] Those of Mark said that's how he wanted to see it.

[27:46] Okay.

[27:46] And it makes sense for bookkeeping, because there were no 15 cents out of every book.

[27:51] I guess that would be good.

[27:53] In the future we could say, we need money to maintain that tank.

[28:00] In the end of the paperwork, we can't complain about it.

[28:02] Right.

[28:02] Where did the 15 cents go?

[28:04] Right.

[28:05] I just feel like we need to keep the service separate on that doesn't work.

[28:11] They will have Aaron send this back then tomorrow morning and we'll see what they go from

[28:18] there.

[28:18] Does anything feel set about the move of the boundary contract?

[28:23] We want this one done first.

[28:25] Yeah.

[28:30] They're not interested in annexing that in it all when I talked with Roy.

[28:39] That saves lots of

[28:44] training petitions.

[28:46] Yes.

[28:47] You're holding special meetings.

[28:50] Yeah.

[28:51] Okay.

[28:53] Item number seven is some raised engineering.

[28:56] he is not here. He did send a list of the things to discuss. And now we can go.

[29:04] That the main one was referring to the power going to the pump station with

[29:12] we already paying Moon Lake the additional cost for permits and wire poles on

[29:18] that. But they will be an additional cost to get the power from the pull inside

[29:23] side the property to the pump station.

[29:29] We need to get with Jeff or with further questions

[29:31] on that day we know. And just let him know where one of his closes we can to the pump

[29:37] station. Right. Exactly. And we'll pay the extra. And whatever. So we need to probably get

[29:44] a motion then to pay the extra once it's approved. I'll make a motion that we pay the extra power

[29:51] power to the pump station. From the pole to the pump station, we want one leg to put it

[29:56] in.

[29:57] Okay.

[29:58] And that's what we want to do to boss.

[30:00] Second. Compensation. Oh, second. Second. All in favor? No. Extra is. Round 7,000, right there, under 7,000. I don't understand, no, because he says down below it is the same cost. And so I mean 20,000 plus 7,000 and 20,000 plus 16,000 is not the same cost. Because you're still going to have to have an electrician to be in between. Yeah. That's the three difference that you're going to have. Okay. So there's

[30:29] and the electrician and maybe conduit or something the difference between 7,000 and 16,000.

[30:37] It would be 7,000.

[30:38] Because rather than paying to handsome the 16,000 to bring in from the pole all the way to

[30:42] the meter box or to the pump, you're going to be bringing the other side in.

[30:47] So maybe like once an additional 7,000 to bring in the pole,

[30:49] but you still have the connection into the meter.

[30:53] But then that's going to be probably the difference.

[30:56] Okay. He didn't quite explain that part. We have a motion and a second and we had

[31:04] an all in favor. Okay. What? Okay. Any opposed? There's none, so we'll get with Jeff and

[31:13] get him to follow through on that next week when he returns in parent.

[31:20] And he didn't say

[31:23] that they were, as a chance, had some openings so they could start setting, maybe in the power

[31:27] of polls. And then this week or first and next. Okay, let's go to item number eight, water

[31:34] manager report, turn time over to out. Anything you have? Not specifically. We've got our

[31:41] annual credit sample setting for disinfection by Friday. They didn't, you know, need back result.

[31:48] So they send it with the bill, can you hold that to me?

[31:55] Yes.

[31:56] I appreciate that.

[32:00] Tell it you know I just got that for just last week.

[32:04] So I took a minute for it to get here.

[32:11] If you don't have anything else that turns the time over to the office manager report.

[32:17] Well it's going to be really short.

[32:20] So new connections, if I could just add those of you that have the other agenda for staff and for the board, there is some connections that I want to be,

[32:34] a bunch of ways to be aware of.

[32:36] The Postma, I don't know if that's even going through over there, at all, on the count 17, 15, I don't know what's happened with that.

[32:44] You're going to be able to get a hold of the one you were doing with last fall?

[32:48] No.

[32:48] Maybe they're all first.

[32:49] No, I think she's...

[32:50] I can say this that at postmas, they are digging something there.

[32:54] Oh, good.

[32:55] They don't mind.

[32:55] He might be in this house, so that might be in the hallway.

[33:00] They're going to be inside.

[33:03] On each side.

[33:05] Okay.

[33:06] They've paid, so they're good, so they are where meeting the contact contractor.

[33:11] That one there will lead a tap. I believe. Yes, that birds have one and there's one on the west side. There are a lot of proposals. Yeah, this other one, 1722, Roar, this one, she has wanted a two inch connection there as well.

[33:27] They want to go up to a commercial connection. She is not paid for that. So I don't know if, maybe we don't have an exact question on this.

[33:38] That's a little concerning because we placed out what three-quarter inch connections cost

[33:45] and one-inch connections cost materialized.

[33:48] We have not done it on two-inch.

[33:52] So we almost need to do it on two-inch to make sure we're in line with what we're charging

[33:58] for a two-inch connection.

[34:00] On the percentage?

[34:01] Amen.

[34:04] You can find that out.

[34:05] I'll be ordering on the JR right then.

[34:07] Yeah, I know so we can get the cost when we order that

[34:12] exact cost to what that's so everything's updated right and I'm laughing other than that one's gonna be a 12 missed

[34:19] Saddles is nobody there should be a whole lot of difference in the saddle cost

[34:25] That's more the setter in the meter

[34:29] Lies here's expensive I can play that much and I'll look back here because I thought we had to left over from

[34:35] the original project or the battery is going to be able to get in there. Well, there's

[34:41] no battery, no connection, no reader on it, so we might just have to get the reader,

[34:50] it's just the brass body. When you find out what the cost is, you can get all the

[34:54] air in it and then we can figure out if we're in the ballpark.

[35:01] And then Lacey

[35:02] clouds down in the Chapman subdivision of the ones that are building that new

[35:06] home down there, right on the corner as you come in. When you guys are out in

[35:10] reading meters, did you check that right there to see if they've connected to

[35:14] that? Is that that bar or the menu? No, it's a brand new home. That's in Chapman's

[35:21] subdivision. Last time I was down there, they had the foundation dug, but they hadn't

[35:25] dug any of these yet. Those are pre-existing meters there from before, so those

[35:32] are a little different and then Jake and Lindy Rich especially you Dean and that or you live

[35:38] right there they've subdivided the property they're getting ready to build their home behind

[35:43] their tiny. Yep and then Stephen Welsh is also up in Charmel to as well haven't seen any development

[35:53] from that so when you guys are out if you could check Stephen Welsh.

[36:01] No so that is

[36:02] is it's not on that road, it's on the 2800 road.

[36:06] So it's not Marie's, it's the other one.

[36:11] And then Matt and Shaley Hamilton,

[36:14] we kind of got a report in our workshop meeting there.

[36:18] Let me know when they're ready.

[36:20] They get a meter in there, let's start getting that done.

[36:23] Aaron Reary and Aaron Reary, they're

[36:25] building another hand down here on the corner next to the house

[36:28] that they just built for Larson's down there.

[36:33] And then this one is a big concern

[36:35] because we think this has already been turned on

[36:38] and they may even be using it.

[36:40] So Elsa Madrid's down in the James Taylor subdivision.

[36:47] I got a part of your voice in the fun.

[36:48] I didn't get all of it.

[36:49] But the time I was able to hear it, you heard it.

[36:52] So Bran had called me and told me

[36:54] that they looked like there was a host coming out there.

[36:57] so they may have already done it and just didn't tell anybody there so you guys are out and then I'm

[37:04] wanting to have you guys read meters on Wednesday the 26th if that works for you guys that's next week

[37:10] and

[37:14] then rereads and I made a typo so that should be 8.31 instead of 6.31

[37:23] there and that can be up to the I didn't want to do billing on the first which is the Tuesday I wanted

[37:29] you know it on Wednesday just to give people enough time to to get everything in and then

[37:35] we'll get billing processed on the second of September. Does that give you guys enough

[37:39] time to get rereads done? And just shout out to Allen and Dean thank you so much for

[37:48] getting those meters we had for the first time and a year and a half those meters down

[37:54] on a Mountain V8 or start giving me some numbers.

[37:58] So thank you.

[37:59] I don't know him.

[38:00] What's happened down there, but we're getting some numbers

[38:03] now, where you're not physically reading them.

[38:09] So that's my report for the district.

[38:14] OK.

[38:18] I look like there's not anything

[38:23] else

[38:26] or anything to discuss in the cost.

[38:35] I'm just concerned about the publicization

[38:50] We're going to have a discussion, we can now walk out of discussion, we'll have to decide

[39:02] how we're going to hook everybody up down there.

[39:05] We can discuss that. I know it's the next month or so by then I'll do that very

[39:10] I

[39:16] make a motion, they're closed with me. Thank you.
