So, we'll start off then with the um mayor's welcomes to everyone and 3 00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:18,000 then we'll go to the consideration of the approval of the agenda. 4 00:00:17,279 --> 00:00:21,000 » So, move >> second. 5 00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:24,080 We'll call the >> Otto.

Does anybody have any comments on the consent 16 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,039 calendar? 17 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:07,479 Move to approve. Second.

Under business of the mayor, we 25 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:24,479 have three library board appointments. Chris Hall is currently on the library 26 00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:28,000 board and agreed to do another term. And then we have two new library board 27 00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:33,840 members. Jessica Gansth will be replacing Cheryl Newagel and Angela 28 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:38,960 Holer will be replacing Terry Schmidt. So Annette has kind of recommended those 29 00:01:36,079 --> 00:01:43,920 three to the library board. Any questions? 30 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,920 » So move to approve. >> Second. 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:56,640 » We'll call the RO. Pitman. Hi. Night. Hi. Otto. Hi. Lley. Hi. Noah. Hi. 32 00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:00,799 We want to especially thank Cheryl and Terry for their years of service on the 33 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:03,799 board and congratulations to the new people. 34 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,640 Next up we have resolution 8426 and this is approving amendment to the water use 35 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:14,720 agreement between the city of Charles City and Bolero. Um Tyler, are you going 36 00:02:14,319 --> 00:02:20,720 to take >> Yeah, this is this is just a a six-month 37 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:27,840 agreement. So, uh for just continuing the current rates with Bolero until we 38 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:36,440 get um the back our uh the uh the rate study and decide on rates from there 39 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,440 just intended to be a stop gap. 40 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:44,080 » Questions on this? >> So, move to approve. 41 00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:48,319 » Second. >> Further comments? Are we still tracking 42 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:51,200 for August >> as of now? Yes. 43 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:54,160 » Would that be its own? >> Yes. 44 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:59,120 » Okay. So, it be like a special meeting or or wait 45 00:02:56,879 --> 00:03:02,920 planning session or a special >> Yeah. plan session 46 00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:12,959 and then the outcome of that would then go in fact at the beginning of the year. 47 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:19,519 » Yeah. Yeah. I think it would be up up to council to decide. you don't really seem 48 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:25,159 to have a um a set time when you typically do it. So could be on the 49 00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:25,159 council. 50 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,319 Any other comments or questions? 51 00:03:31,519 --> 00:03:34,319 Call the role. >> Nie. 52 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,120 » Hi. >> Otto. 53 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,000 » Hi. >> Lley. 54 00:03:35,599 --> 00:03:39,920 » Hi. >> Noah. Hi. Fit. 55 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:43,519 » Hi. >> All right. Next up then we have 56 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:49,599 discussion on the facade improvement grab application for 413 North Main 57 00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:54,560 which is Luke James and Company had some alterations in that either were you 58 00:03:52,640 --> 00:04:02,280 going to lead this or who was going to take the lead on this? Uh Mark, do you 59 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:02,280 want to I guess 60 00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:11,120 » basically we have there there was work found and that and a new 61 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:18,720 application was filed. >> I can jump in if Okay. So to start when 62 00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:23,280 I when I applied for it, they had the new signs Mason City come over and all 63 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:27,520 that we thought that we needed was the letters, the the frame itself, the 64 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:32,400 construction from Quake Construction, everything looked solid. It wasn't until 65 00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:35,680 we had those strong winds come through and one night we were leaving real late 66 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,199 and I he was parked on the other side and I was looking at him and I looked up 67 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:43,680 and I said, "Uh, come here." you know, and we noticed that it was it had to be 68 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:48,240 those winds that took it away from the wall. And then so we called Steve Qu the 69 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:53,440 or Steve Hubert the next morning and he came over and inspected it and found it 70 00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:58,800 was dry rotted and like ready to fall. He was worried it was going to happen 71 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:03,199 right then, you know. Um, Leoo signs he would have had no reason. 72 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:08,240 He did all of his measurements from the ground. all he thought he was doing was 73 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:14,800 putting metal letters on the on the building. Wasn't until we determined 74 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:21,360 this was a a must, a safety hazard that we had to address it. And 75 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:26,400 um from my understanding, I I understand that there's some concerns about 76 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:30,800 setting a precedent of amending the grant at this point. And I guess, you 77 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:35,360 know, just from a a personal perspective, I I'm thinking that maybe 78 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:41,199 that's something that should be amen allow amended in a situation like this. 79 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:45,039 You know, common people like us that don't have a ton of money to to handle 80 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:49,039 these things when they come up. You know, we need all we can can get in the 81 00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:53,199 beginning to help us have a solid financial start. 82 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:57,199 I guess that's where I'm at. Just to clarify, so the council did approve a 83 00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:04,479 slot approved grant for New James Company for 13 North Main uh for $4,553. 84 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:09,360 That was half the project cost. That's what you applied for. That was to do the 85 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:14,400 signage. Then you approved an amendment to that grant that took out the Berkile 86 00:06:12,319 --> 00:06:17,680 part and allowed for mini split to be put in which had to be put in 87 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:21,919 requirement for food purposes. So that was approved. And so this request now 88 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:27,919 after the workshop is what we're requesting is you consider 89 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:34,880 increasing the amount 4553 to 10 the full 10,000. Um whether we 90 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:39,280 amend the current grant or tear that one up. So money has been paid 91 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:43,880 yet on that one and then approve one for 10,000 instead. 4553 92 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:53,919 again. normally with that grant has to be approved before you project can begin 93 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:57,759 to start reimbursing for that. Um that's what we'll read about as far as setting 94 00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:01,919 precedent. In this case, there was a safety concern as well as the contractor 95 00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:05,039 was able to do it right then and there. If not, it was going to be three 96 00:07:03,599 --> 00:07:06,400 projects later where it could come back and do work. 97 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,440 » Yeah. >> And she was scheduled July. 98 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,880 » And and it was one of those things. I mean, I had to do it either way. It was 99 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:24,400 a safety concern. So I couldn't really wait for, you know, this workshop. So 100 00:07:21,919 --> 00:07:30,400 » Mark, you said we we have the option to amend the previously amended agreement 101 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:35,199 or to create a whole new one. Based on the discussion last time, they thought 102 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:40,400 it would be better if we just voided the first grant and went with a new one, 103 00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:45,120 which we did submit >> for 10,000 because the project cost is 104 00:07:42,319 --> 00:07:50,880 well over 20,000. And she can apply for up to half that amount capp to 10,000. 105 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:54,240 » Cost is the same either way, whether you do new or it's 10,000, 106 00:07:52,639 --> 00:08:00,800 » right? Same same. You're either you're either adding to the 4553 to make it 107 00:07:57,919 --> 00:08:06,400 10,000 or we're just looking up 4553 agreement and doing a new one for 10 108 00:08:02,639 --> 00:08:10,400 bucks because we have not uh given her a check yet for the first grant. Was 109 00:08:08,319 --> 00:08:13,400 waiting for funds to be available July 1st. 110 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:25,039 » Other comments discussion >> my comments are remaining same as last 111 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:29,680 time. I'm I'm supportive of this. I would like to see a new document 112 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:36,240 prepared presented to the council. 113 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:43,360 Um yes, the we're very stringent and I think we should be sending a clear 114 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:48,399 message to your board that um if the work is started then the cost is 115 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:55,120 on the owner. This was had some unique circumstances to it. For me though um at 116 00:08:52,880 --> 00:09:01,519 a time where we have a lot of economic uncertainty, 117 00:08:57,680 --> 00:09:04,640 we have u a couple here that is investing 118 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:10,160 not only themselves but they're investing into the community. I I 119 00:09:07,839 --> 00:09:17,440 personally like to see this go forward and the full 10,000 120 00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:22,720 that I think especially our work. Is this the normal process I would like to 121 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:27,040 do? No. >> And we do make sure when we talk to them 122 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:31,040 about the criteria for the grant that it is a reimbursement that has to be 123 00:09:28,399 --> 00:09:37,200 approved normally before that work qualifies. Said this is a 124 00:09:33,279 --> 00:09:40,320 special circumstance to consider. >> Yeah, Mark definitely had that 125 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:45,120 conversation with me. >> That was I perfectly understood that. I 126 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:48,640 just asked him to come back to y'all because of the circumstances. 127 00:09:52,240 --> 00:10:01,200 I agree with Patrick. I think it's something we should buy in favor of. 128 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:05,839 It's unusual circumstances. Maybe we're fortunate the wind came and we noticed 129 00:10:02,959 --> 00:10:11,640 it and it was taken care of before heavy letters were put up there again and when 130 00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:11,640 it did fall. Um, 131 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:19,200 as long as we're everybody's well aware that we typically don't do that, but I 132 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:23,920 think if it comes up again, we just got to look at each situation. I don't know. 133 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:27,279 So, sign [clears throat] >> the way Britney drafted that resolution 134 00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:30,880 and we would be approving the new application that's in the packets 135 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:35,519 tonight. So, I feel like that's a clean way to handle it. Thank you. 136 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:39,760 » Yeah, I know. I was probably the most vocal opponent for this at that time. 137 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:43,279 Um, since since I've thought about it 138 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:48,800 longer, I'm on board with it. But what I think we need to do is maybe make some 139 00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:53,120 adjustments in our application process uh that that can bring in like emergency 140 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:58,800 acts where we can amend it if it's an emergency act, you know, kind of protect 141 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:03,760 protect us from that precedent that I was talking about before because I could 142 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:08,240 see this happening uh down the line after word gets out. Oh, they did the 143 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:12,399 work and then they let them bring it in and get a grant after the fact. Well, 144 00:11:10,399 --> 00:11:18,240 they not realizing this was an emergency situation. I think I'd like to have that 145 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:23,172 language added into the application that and then I think that would probably 146 00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:25,600 protect us from the president. [clears throat] 147 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:29,839 » I think that makes a lot of sense. And I mean, like Mark said, I haven't gotten 148 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:34,079 any money yet at this point. So, if that's something y'all could come up 149 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:39,600 with, I'd fill that out beforehand. >> Yeah. other council questions? 150 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:44,320 » No, I mean I think this is this is a situation where there was some you know 151 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:49,120 obviously some unforeseen circumstances and we've we've never come across 152 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:54,480 anything like this. So I think I'm I'm not opposed to that suggestion just to 153 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:58,480 have an emer like if it needs to be spelled out um something for 154 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,440 emergencies. I I don't know if that gets us into 155 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:05,200 muddy waters where somebody could say, "Well, I I think it's an emergency." And 156 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,360 then we're still we still end up having to make a decision. Oh, it is or it 157 00:12:06,959 --> 00:12:11,040 isn't, >> but it will still make it a little bit 158 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,680 more clear like this is definitely, you know, 159 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,360 » yeah, >> a last minute emergency situation as 160 00:12:13,680 --> 00:12:18,240 opposed to somebody having it done for six months 161 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,079 emergency. >> Yeah. 162 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,720 » And council controls the criteria for the program. So, Chris, any other 163 00:12:24,079 --> 00:12:29,360 comments? >> Nope. I think it's great. All right. 164 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:33,519 Thank you. I want to take minutes. Thank you. Opening business at Charles City. 165 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:37,120 It's a big investment and we're we're behind you. So, I'm behind you. 166 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,320 » Thank you. >> Absolutely. 167 00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:43,680 » This will end up like we just had a culture entertainment district grant 168 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:47,600 meeting. This will effect if if approved, this will effectively use up 169 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,320 all the funds already this fiscal year. So, we had three culture entertainment 170 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:57,360 district grant >> projects reviewed and approved. So the 171 00:12:53,839 --> 00:13:01,519 45,000 year mark for fiscal year 2627 will be down to $236. 172 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:04,480 » But that's how many projects we got going on. 173 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:08,320 » And your fiscal year is until October 1. >> It's your fiscal year from now. 174 00:13:06,079 --> 00:13:10,959 » It's our fiscal year. >> So six days in 175 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:14,639 » more grants for a year. We're going to be having this discussion year. 176 00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:18,720 » Yeah. >> My only concern and I I'm very 177 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:23,040 supportive of the project. But I wonder how many previous projects have found 178 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:27,360 problems and decide, oh, I can't go back for more money and how many future 179 00:13:24,959 --> 00:13:31,680 projects are going to say, "Darn, I didn't know that was going to happen." 180 00:13:28,959 --> 00:13:35,120 » So, I think whether you guys think we're setting a precedent or not, I think we 181 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:39,760 are. >> Even if we put it in the wording, I 182 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:44,000 don't know if that's a good idea because like Phoebe, like you said, it's going 183 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:49,200 to muddy the waters pretty >> turbulently, I think. So I I'm totally 184 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:53,600 in support of your project, but I can see where this is could be a problem. 185 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:57,600 And like I say, I feel bad if there were over the last six or seven years, if we 186 00:13:55,680 --> 00:14:02,000 got other projects, we said, "Darn, I could have used more money, but I can't 187 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:07,040 get any more money >> with the cost of everything today. Most 188 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,560 projects probably use the full 10,000." No, 189 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:14,480 » she didn't originally. >> No, not originally, but doesn't take 190 00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:18,720 long to get up to that. I mean most of them do not take the 191 00:14:16,079 --> 00:14:23,240 10,000 don't they majority >> I'd say probably 60% do 192 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,800 » 60% pick the will ask for the full 10,000 193 00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:38,880 » yeah I guess we only they should have asked if they should 194 00:14:35,839 --> 00:14:43,680 have been bold or you know worst that y'all can say is no we can't do it but 195 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:48,480 I'm going to ask So reason why I'm I'm I feel okay with 196 00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:53,760 this one. This happened in the process of putting the sign up. It's not you 197 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:57,440 know these other things project was totally completed and signed 198 00:14:55,600 --> 00:15:01,600 off on this hasn't even been completed yet. Hadn't been completed yet at that 199 00:14:59,279 --> 00:15:04,399 point. So when you caught this emergency so something like that could be 200 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,480 understand. >> Many other projects have had that same 201 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:11,360 thing as to but they didn't come back. If they would 202 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:16,279 have came back, maybe we would have had this discussion earlier, but we didn't. 203 00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:16,279 So, 204 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:23,839 » so my other but so the other thing that again this is not pertain to this, 205 00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:28,880 » but if we're talking about 45,000 total for the two, 206 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:32,079 that's four projects a year. We may want to think about that as we go into what 207 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,320 we're going to prove for next year, too. >> Yeah, that's true. 208 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:38,639 » Because that's not very many projects if they're all coming in for 10,000. That's 209 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:42,720 not very many projects. So that's not the has nothing to do with tonight's 210 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:46,160 discussion, but just going forward. >> Very few projects now are coming in 211 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:50,480 under the $20,000 mark. >> Yeah. So what was the amount that we 212 00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:56,000 what was the amount we set aside for the the projects outside of of Main Street? 213 00:15:53,920 --> 00:16:00,000 Still >> we need to get on that 214 00:15:59,199 --> 00:16:05,519 mark. >> I've had three people ask the last two 215 00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:10,480 weeks where we are at. >> So that will be on an upcoming 216 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:13,759 I mean it was so thought we had 217 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:18,880 » I think we had 25 started low just not sure how that 218 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:22,880 » which was seven we're talking about. >> Y 219 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,839 » All right.

July 13th um is our next it's a planning session, 350 00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:18,480 but it's on a Monday. Um, so and then we have Monday, July 20th as our regular 351 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:26,640 meeting. And then Wednesday, July 29th will be 352 00:26:22,159 --> 00:26:32,559 our last cleaning session of July. All at 6:00, but yeah, it's three 353 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:35,559 Mondays in a row and then a Wednesday. So, 354 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:47,440 and we'll just split the room um for next Monday. So we'll have just a small 355 00:26:42,559 --> 00:26:51,200 project going just but other than that I don't have anything 356 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:55,760 but I don't rent anything for a report. 357 00:26:52,880 --> 00:27:01,279 » Um well we have Bracket Street is now complete. Uh so that'll be a um they 358 00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:08,720 have a pay request coming in for the next meeting and then uh Iowa Lane 359 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:13,320 begins tomorrow with uh the removal and flatter main reroute on Wednesday. 360 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:21,279 » We'll take a look at that over the weekend and we've done some serious 361 00:27:19,279 --> 00:27:26,080 grading. >> A lot of grading. 362 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:32,480 » Yeah. When will that be essentially shut off to the public? That was widely used 363 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:38,720 during the 4th of July. >> Well, we had shut we had shut off part 364 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,880 um part of the access to it. Um >> but it's open today. 365 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,039 » Yeah. >> So question is when are we going to 366 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:50,720 close it for? >> I think once the street once lane gets 367 00:27:49,279 --> 00:27:55,279 finished. Yeah. >> So can they do the lane? where they do 368 00:27:53,120 --> 00:27:59,600 granular. Aren't those signals tied together all this? 369 00:27:57,279 --> 00:28:04,880 » No, they're going to they're going to do lane and they're g because because the 370 00:28:02,799 --> 00:28:09,120 issues with grand they they just they were going to do lane now 371 00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:11,600 » so they can take down those signals on lane without affecting the signals on 372 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,840 Grand. >> Yes. 373 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:20,880 I guess I'm assuming I'm supposed to roll down at that point. I'm just hoping 374 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:24,720 the ones on grand still work because they're taking on the on if I recall 375 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:29,679 correctly, they said those would still work correctly. They they just said they 376 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:33,120 wouldn't be able to tie in with the ones if they would put new ones at lane. They 377 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:36,640 wouldn't tie in with those because there wasn't enough distance, but there won't 378 00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:39,640 be anything at lane if from my understand 379 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,799 the operation of the ambulance. >> Yeah. Yeah. 380 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,760 » Because I did throw the railroad under the bus this morning. 381 00:28:47,919 --> 00:28:53,360 And I said something about, well, the grand one isn't going to happen until 382 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:56,399 October because the railroad did not over did not 383 00:28:55,360 --> 00:29:00,559 » didn't get the pieces in >> order the parts even though we talked 384 00:28:58,559 --> 00:29:04,000 about this last October. >> I said sounds like I'm throwing the 385 00:29:01,919 --> 00:29:06,720 railroad under the bus >> because I am. 386 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,240 » Yeah. >> Which I think they need to people need 387 00:29:08,559 --> 00:29:14,840 to know this is a railroad problem, not ours. Iberly agreed 388 00:29:15,039 --> 00:29:18,880 to have a >> because now we got military school being 389 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:22,240 in effect. >> It's a you know they really and it's 390 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:25,600 their and it's their project. They started the whole project and they were 391 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,960 not at the pre-construction meeting either. 392 00:29:26,159 --> 00:29:33,679 » Oh. >> So anyway, just thought I'd throw a 393 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:38,960 little sideline in there. >> Uh yeah. And then uh introduce Katie 394 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:44,320 Herd. She's our new communications director. That's great. 395 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:48,399 » Welcome. Welcome aboard. >> And she used Tyler's office last week, 396 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,880 but darn Tyler came back. So now she has to have an office till we move over 397 00:29:50,159 --> 00:29:54,320 here. So >> yeah, 398 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:56,720 » but we she will stop in and see us periodically. 399 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,520 » All right. >> Yeah. Welcome Katie. 400 00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:05,440 » Anything else, Tyler? >> That's it. 401 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:11,120 Just to piggy back off of your uh off the bracket street, I did go over and 402 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:15,919 talk to Chuck Connect about that. Apparently they use sand down in the 403 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:20,320 bottom of it and he said they packed it in good, but it was still kind of 404 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:23,520 nervous. So what's the recourse or something if that were to collapse or 405 00:30:21,919 --> 00:30:31,919 sink? >> Well, there's um there's the uh um 406 00:30:29,039 --> 00:30:36,000 whatever the uh warranty is. Oh, that's okay. Yeah, there is a warranty. Okay. 407 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:40,559 Yeah. Yep. 408 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:46,320 » Did Mark have anything much contact with that project? Mark Crawford? 409 00:30:42,799 --> 00:30:49,880 » Yeah. Yep. Mark manage that. >> Good. Yes. 410 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:57,039 » Any board commissioner committee reports? 411 00:30:54,399 --> 00:31:02,880 » Just the uh planning zoning met last week and the output was reviewed today. 412 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:05,120 Anybody else? 413 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:10,240 » Was Mark alluded? We had that facade meeting which I filled in for Phoebe on 414 00:31:07,279 --> 00:31:12,880 that I believe because they needed so many people there. So, 415 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:16,720 » thank you. >> And I went through all the money as you 416 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:20,320 said earlier. So, which is good and bad. 417 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:24,399 » It's good that we're have projects going. It's unfortunately we don't have 418 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:28,960 money to keep projects going, but it's the way it is. 419 00:31:26,399 --> 00:31:34,480 » We, you know, there was a discussion at that meeting Should we? One of the 420 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:38,880 projects was for $10,000 and part of the discussion was, well, should we only 421 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:43,519 give that person $5,000 so we have some money to give to somebody else? And the 422 00:31:41,279 --> 00:31:47,440 discussion ended up being, why should we penalize somebody who has a project on 423 00:31:45,919 --> 00:31:51,760 the board just to save money for somebody else who we may or may not have 424 00:31:49,519 --> 00:31:57,720 a project. So, the group went ahead and approved the full 10,000 to that 425 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,720 project. So, 426 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:06,039 » and that will all be on your claims list on the 20th meeting. Mark sent all that 427 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,039 to me. So, 428 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:14,399 » all right. No further comments. Now we will consider a motion to enter into 429 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:20,000 close session pursuant to Iowa code chapter 21.51 430 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:24,880 I to conduct performance evaluations for city administrator, city clerk, and city 431 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:30,080 attorney as requested in writing by each party as considered necessary to prevent 432 00:32:27,519 --> 00:32:34,640 needless and irreparable injury to reputation. 433 00:32:32,799 --> 00:32:40,080 » I'd make such motion. >> Second. Before we vote on that, um I do 434 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:45,600 have written correspondence from the three of us requesting that it does need 435 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:48,880 to be requested in writing. We are just going to have a single close session for 436 00:32:47,279 --> 00:32:52,480 all three evaluation and then when that's completed, we'll come out and 437 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:56,559 take action on each separate >> resolution is impacted. So, whatever 438 00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:00,880 order we decide to go in, it's I guess up to council, but it'll just be a 439 00:32:59,039 --> 00:33:03,679 single post session. >> Sounds good. That's what we've done 440 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,799 before. I think it's worked out pretty well. So, 441 00:33:07,279 --> 00:33:13,039 We have a motion. Second 442 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:16,960 call to roll. >> Otto. Hi. 443 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:20,559 » Lumley. Hi. Noah. Hi. Pitman. Hi. Right. Hi. [clears throat] 444 00:33:18,559 --> 00:33:26,080 » So, the way we've done this before is we do Brad's evaluation first and Britney 445 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,080 will take notes.
