and city committees. 62 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,320 I just have a couple things. 63 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:39,320 First of all, for those that you don't know the planned commission was cancelled yesterday. 64 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,320 Do the lack of a quorum. 65 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:48,320 We had Andrea resigned and then one of the other people that was questionable whether they're 66 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,320 going to make it or not. 67 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,320 So we didn't have a quorum. 68 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,320 There's only three members. 69 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,320 It can make it. 70 00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,320 So that will be scheduled for next month with. 71 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:07,320 Consolation on July of 11th on. 72 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,320 On that project. 73 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,320 There's excitement this week. 74 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,320 The loggers hit high power line out there. 75 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:20,320 Which is not the power out and also started a fire. 76 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,320 Of course, there's a new story about that. 77 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:31,320 There's a property owners who are quite unhappy about that as you can well imagine. 78 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,320 There's also a story. 79 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:34,320 This week. 80 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:40,320 Just generally about about the project last night. 81 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,320 And kind of airing the same thing that they don't like the character 82 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,320 of the name of the density. 83 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,320 Taylor. 84 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,320 I think did a good job addressing. 85 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,320 That it was consistent with the. 86 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,320 Complanned. 87 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,320 There was some discussion about process. 88 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,320 I think that we're hearing it. 89 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,320 Frankly, this this project has been. 90 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,320 I've never seen my career. 91 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,320 Anyway, that that continues to be. 92 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,320 You know, a project that. 93 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,320 As. 94 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,320 Matt said we're learning a lot for. 95 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,320 So we'll continue. 96 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Hopefully we got to have a lot of more lessons to learn. 97 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,320 But we'll. 98 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,320 Will if we need to. 99 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,320 So. 100 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,320 This weekend Saturday 4th of July. 101 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,320 Celebration depended state celebration dot at the park. 102 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,320 Big deeks are playing. 103 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,320 Fancy houses for the kids food trucks. 104 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,320 Good time. 105 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,320 Please come on down if you get a chance. 106 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:55,320 Always a very good turnout and a good time. 107 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,320 Along. 108 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,320 Other news over the past week that's of some interest to us is that. 109 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,320 Contot Washington has some meetings in. 110 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,320 To consider incorporation. 111 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,320 I haven't seen the boundaries. 112 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,320 Of. 113 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,320 Where that is. 114 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,320 I've read so. 115 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:22,320 Struggly south of what Claire I don't know if that will impact us at all I don't know if it has legs or attorneys are looking into. 116 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,320 Kind of. 117 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,320 What standing we may have. 118 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:39,320 of making our position known on that the city of a player did pass a resolution. 119 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:45,620 They have a little bit more stake in it based on their proximity, but also that they have 120 00:05:45,620 --> 00:05:52,460 a boundary agreement with the town of Washington that essentially they're saying they're 121 00:05:53,460 --> 00:05:59,460 not pulling up their end of the bargain on the agreement that they have in place. 122 00:05:59,460 --> 00:06:06,460 They also used to, if we have a combined sanitary sewer district, that Washington at some time 123 00:06:06,460 --> 00:06:13,460 decided to pull out of, so there's, it's a little bit more interesting in that regard 124 00:06:14,460 --> 00:06:23,460 from the city of a clear perspective, and they did pass a resolution which I can perhaps share with 125 00:06:23,460 --> 00:06:24,460 you all. 126 00:06:24,460 --> 00:06:25,460 What does that mean? 127 00:06:25,460 --> 00:06:27,460 What they incorporate? 128 00:06:27,460 --> 00:06:32,460 Well, if they incorporate, it means they're a village, and they have all the rights of a village 129 00:06:32,460 --> 00:06:38,460 that they can subdivide at whatever density means that we can't grow into that church. 130 00:06:38,460 --> 00:06:44,460 Okay, I mean, all right, which that's, you know, and I said this during my testimony 131 00:06:44,460 --> 00:06:46,460 for the urban townsville. 132 00:06:46,460 --> 00:06:54,460 That's our prerogative, that's what state lie is, and if they want to incorporate and provide the services 133 00:06:54,460 --> 00:06:59,460 that come along with incorporation, I'm all in favor of it, I am. 134 00:06:59,460 --> 00:07:02,460 So, but it's not that easy. 135 00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:04,460 It's not that easy. 136 00:07:05,460 --> 00:07:09,460 So, if they would incorporate, would they have to have their own police department as opposed to using 137 00:07:09,460 --> 00:07:10,460 county? 138 00:07:10,460 --> 00:07:12,460 They have to have police service. 139 00:07:12,460 --> 00:07:18,460 I'm not, I don't know, Sam knows more than I do, but I don't know what level they can contract. 140 00:07:18,460 --> 00:07:19,460 Can contract it? 141 00:07:19,460 --> 00:07:20,460 I know that. 142 00:07:20,460 --> 00:07:24,460 Now, there are certain services like their positions, they have to fill. 143 00:07:24,460 --> 00:07:30,460 Like fire chief, police chief, but I mean, they can generally, they can contract some services, 144 00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:33,460 but there is a higher level or higher threshold for service. 145 00:07:33,460 --> 00:07:40,460 But also there's services related to provision of utilities. 146 00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:49,460 It's, it's, it's, it's, it's not something I know a lot about, frankly, that we're going 147 00:07:49,460 --> 00:07:54,460 to have to learn, Sam's doing some research on it right now. 148 00:07:54,460 --> 00:07:55,460 Right now? 149 00:07:55,460 --> 00:07:57,460 So literally, right now. 150 00:07:57,460 --> 00:08:02,460 So anyway, that's something we'll be following closely. 151 00:08:03,460 --> 00:08:10,460 And again, you know, again, if they, if, if they incorporate, that's their 152 00:08:10,460 --> 00:08:18,460 prerogative and that's what state allows me also means that they'll have to have comprehensive 153 00:08:18,460 --> 00:08:28,460 planning and, you know, good planning practices and it's, it's, you know, and it also 154 00:08:28,460 --> 00:08:30,460 comes with a referendum, isn't that right, Sam? 155 00:08:30,460 --> 00:08:34,460 Yeah, like there may be a proof by the, by the electorate. 156 00:08:34,460 --> 00:08:42,460 So, you know, a lot of people live in the town of Washington because it's lower taxes. 157 00:08:42,460 --> 00:08:49,460 So if you start having to provide all those services, the game changes. 158 00:08:49,460 --> 00:08:50,460 So I don't know. 159 00:08:50,460 --> 00:09:00,460 Again, I, I, I supported to the extent that it's consistent with 160 00:09:00,460 --> 00:09:04,460 good growth management. 161 00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:16,460 If they want to incorporate and have utilities and good storm order practices and create higher 162 00:09:16,460 --> 00:09:26,460 density, higher tax density, that that's good, good planning for land use. 163 00:09:26,460 --> 00:09:28,460 So what, we'll see along. 164 00:09:28,460 --> 00:09:29,460 I mean, it's a long process. 165 00:09:29,460 --> 00:09:32,460 It involves circuit quarter and everything. 166 00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:33,460 Yeah. 167 00:09:33,460 --> 00:09:34,460 So what, we'll see. 168 00:09:34,460 --> 00:09:36,460 I just wanted to give you heads up on that. 169 00:09:36,460 --> 00:09:39,460 That's, that's what you did vote to incorporate what that put a halt to the white 170 00:09:39,460 --> 00:09:40,460 field development. 171 00:09:40,460 --> 00:09:42,460 Yeah, because that's. 172 00:09:42,460 --> 00:09:44,460 Yeah, we're, it's already in the city of El tuna. 173 00:09:44,460 --> 00:09:54,460 Yeah, but I think part of this is that while in process, 174 00:09:54,460 --> 00:10:04,460 their incorporations or annexations may be put on hold is something I heard may be part of it. 175 00:10:04,460 --> 00:10:08,460 So I'm, but I'm not sure future annexations. 176 00:10:08,460 --> 00:10:10,460 Well, this is pending. 177 00:10:10,460 --> 00:10:15,460 And again, don't call me on that because that's just something someone told me. 178 00:10:15,460 --> 00:10:18,460 So I shouldn't even say that I'll love frankly. 179 00:10:18,460 --> 00:10:20,460 Okay, I don't know. 180 00:10:20,460 --> 00:10:29,460 But if, if that's true, then it could have the effect in that area that is planned to stop 181 00:10:30,460 --> 00:10:33,460 any pending annexations or if there are. 182 00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:41,460 I think there's a procedure for if there are pending annexations that they can be put on record. 183 00:10:41,460 --> 00:10:44,460 Again, I'm learning as we go. 184 00:10:44,460 --> 00:10:45,460 Okay. 185 00:10:45,460 --> 00:10:49,460 When I, when I know more, I'll let you know. 186 00:10:49,460 --> 00:10:51,460 And that is all I had. 187 00:10:51,460 --> 00:10:54,460 Thank you. 188 00:10:54,460 --> 00:10:56,460 Who's up next? 189 00:10:59,460 --> 00:11:00,460 Yeah. 190 00:11:00,460 --> 00:11:04,460 It's to put couple items. 191 00:11:04,460 --> 00:11:11,460 The pavement replacement and the pavement preservation programs are about to kick off here. 192 00:11:11,460 --> 00:11:16,460 Kind of coming in to focus a little bit with the contractors giving us some inkling. 193 00:11:16,460 --> 00:11:24,460 When you get in, you're probably seeing 10th Street west is being prepped for the real disruptive part of it, 194 00:11:24,460 --> 00:11:27,460 which is the milling and surfacing of that. 195 00:11:27,460 --> 00:11:32,460 So we're talking at July 8th, though, this is probably roughly when they'll be coming in. 196 00:11:32,460 --> 00:11:33,460 But that's very weather dependent. 197 00:11:33,460 --> 00:11:36,460 So that's a technical problem. 198 00:11:36,460 --> 00:11:45,460 But some of our capital expenditures for this year, sweeper people have probably seen that out on the red sweeper out on the street. 199 00:11:45,460 --> 00:11:47,460 You have got a dump trailer. 200 00:11:47,460 --> 00:11:52,460 That's in service and and they're both really well received by staff. 201 00:11:52,460 --> 00:11:55,460 They really like as really streamlines or activities. 202 00:11:55,460 --> 00:12:01,460 Well, the. 203 00:12:01,460 --> 00:12:02,460 Division Street. 204 00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:04,460 Oh, just open up to traffic today. 205 00:12:04,460 --> 00:12:07,460 There's some little finishing touches that need to happen out there. 206 00:12:07,460 --> 00:12:14,460 And and you'll see some sidewalk has left out in preparation for the cannery or what that cannery. 207 00:12:14,460 --> 00:12:15,460 The yard. 208 00:12:15,460 --> 00:12:16,460 The yard. 209 00:12:16,460 --> 00:12:20,460 So that's that's hopefully in the in the near future. 210 00:12:20,460 --> 00:12:24,460 We'll be moving on that. 211 00:12:24,460 --> 00:12:29,460 The July 19th is the date that we will be able to drive down Fairfax. We hope. 212 00:12:29,460 --> 00:12:31,460 Maybe even sooner than that. 213 00:12:31,460 --> 00:12:38,460 They're kind of given us a worse case, but we're doing a bunch of list items on that as this this week. 214 00:12:38,460 --> 00:12:44,460 And putting up no parking signs and all the connecting asphalt is is going in. 215 00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:49,460 So yeah, for sure by July 19th, we look at that. 216 00:12:49,460 --> 00:12:51,460 That's really all I have. 217 00:12:51,460 --> 00:12:52,460 All right. 218 00:12:52,460 --> 00:12:53,460 Thank you. 219 00:12:53,460 --> 00:12:54,460 Chief. 220 00:12:54,460 --> 00:12:55,460 Gentlemen. 221 00:12:55,460 --> 00:12:56,460 Thank you. 222 00:12:56,460 --> 00:13:02,460 I just have a update on some of the operations of the apartment currently are. 223 00:13:02,460 --> 00:13:05,460 Call volume for firing EMS combined. 224 00:13:05,460 --> 00:13:08,460 We're at a hundred and twenty three calls. 225 00:13:08,460 --> 00:13:09,460 Your date. 226 00:13:09,460 --> 00:13:12,460 Hundred and ten are fired apart from really the calls. 227 00:13:12,460 --> 00:13:15,460 Seven are in thirteen are EMS related. 228 00:13:15,460 --> 00:13:20,460 Currently have completed up to 260. 229 00:13:20,460 --> 00:13:22,460 The EMS is on the next election. 230 00:13:22,460 --> 00:13:24,460 Two hundred and eighty. 231 00:13:24,460 --> 00:13:25,460 About two hundred and eighty. 232 00:13:25,460 --> 00:13:26,460 Spactions year to date. 233 00:13:26,460 --> 00:13:30,460 Commercial businesses as well as occupancy inspections. 234 00:13:30,460 --> 00:13:35,460 Our goal hit is about about thirteen. 235 00:13:35,460 --> 00:13:39,460 1350 inspections by the end of the by the end of the year. 236 00:13:39,460 --> 00:13:43,460 So we're about at twenty percent or so on completion. 237 00:13:43,460 --> 00:13:48,460 We got a little bit of a late start this this year because we were. 238 00:13:48,460 --> 00:13:52,460 We got a little bit late bringing our inspector on board but she's out hitting. 239 00:13:52,460 --> 00:13:53,460 It in the inspections very hard. 240 00:13:53,460 --> 00:13:57,460 She's also conducting a lot of public ed so far. 241 00:13:57,460 --> 00:14:04,460 She's documented that she had outreach to eight hundred and twenty individuals in a community of 242 00:14:04,460 --> 00:14:11,460 Altuna and may be some outside lying individuals as well that had visited those events. 243 00:14:11,460 --> 00:14:16,460 Out of those events which they we've had about twelve. 244 00:14:16,460 --> 00:14:18,460 A lot of public ed events. 245 00:14:18,460 --> 00:14:24,460 The youngest person was four years old to attend one of those and the oldest was a hundred and three. 246 00:14:24,460 --> 00:14:29,460 So we're trying to get out to all demographics everyone. 247 00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:34,460 We talk to them about especially elderly folks about safety in their homes. 248 00:14:34,460 --> 00:14:41,460 About fire safety as well because as the people age things change and their ability to handle things also changes. 249 00:14:42,460 --> 00:14:46,460 In current staffing levels we are at twenty five firefighter in teams are greater. 250 00:14:46,460 --> 00:14:51,460 We have nine firefighter only staff along with five M.S. only staff. 251 00:14:51,460 --> 00:14:56,460 And we're got about six new people that will be starting soon. 252 00:14:56,460 --> 00:14:58,460 I'm hoping within the next month. 253 00:14:58,460 --> 00:14:59,460 And. 254 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:08,000 Just kind of just so you're aware there's some substantial OSHA changes that are coming for the fire service. 255 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:15,000 We anticipate those changes may be a 25 or 26, either late 25 or early 26. 256 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,000 They may start affecting us.

--> 00:17:26,000 Anyways, big kudos to everyone involved in that. 290 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,000 We've been really pounding the rock to get it. 291 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,000 Good amount of information in on that and submitted. 292 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Container Park. 293 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,000 We continue to move forward on that. 294 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,000 Imagine you can see division streets open. 295 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,000 Street skate looks really good out there. 296 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,000 I saw someone drive over the crosswalk home today. 297 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,000 I'm at a faster rate of speed than I wouldn't expected. 298 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,000 But it looks really good out there. 299 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:59,000 And we're continuing to move forward on design and hopefully getting our. 300 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:04,000 Architecture role in our engineering like out on the street. 301 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:09,000 So so Dave that table top crossing. 302 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,000 Does that come with. 303 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,000 Warning. 304 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Science. 305 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,000 To slow down. 306 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,000 I think we we may as well get ahead. 307 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,000 We may as well get ahead of that. 308 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,000 I think. 309 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,000 I think. 310 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,000 I think. 311 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,000 I think we could. 312 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,000 It's. 313 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,000 It's. 314 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,000 It's it's. 315 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,000 It's much more. 316 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,000 I know it's very good. 317 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,000 I guarantee that we're going to get the complaints and. 318 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,000 I will need the sign. 319 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,000 I don't know. 320 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,000 I wish. 321 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,000 This is not that we're going to have to do a. 322 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,000 The. 323 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000 Because they really I hit it out of all 25 and it barely notice it. 324 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,000 So hey, I would. 325 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:55,000 Hit would've been probably better to drink it down if we intended it to be more of a speed table, really what it does now. 326 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:01,000 It's just a level level crossing for pedestrians and it sort of shrinks that crossing a little bit. 327 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,000 But it's. 328 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,000 That's definitely not. 329 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,000 All right. 330 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:11,000 see, but I'll bet you, I'll bet you a hamburger on it. 331 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,000 Oh, I think that there will be a complaint. 332 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000 Yeah, no, no, no, no bad. 333 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:24,000 I was surprised to see they didn't do the work on the container park right away. 334 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,000 There's another same contractor. 335 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,000 No, because we, that it's not out on the street even yet. 336 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,000 To do the. 337 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,000 Yeah. 338 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000 We've been waiting. 339 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,000 I thought that was all. 340 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:40,000 We've been going back and forth and back and forth to much. 341 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:46,000 Frustration of all

impression that was already done. 351 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,000 But also. 352 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,000 You do. 353 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,000 Dave's responsibility. 354 00:20:14,000 -->

Regarding this middle of the city's compliance maintenance. 390 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,000 Annual reporter CMAR for the wastewater collection system. 391 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000 This is just kind of a procedural item. 392 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,000 It's kind of an evaluation of our sewer utility. 393 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,000 It covers the financial and the collection side of things. 394 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:32,000 And for many years in a row, we are 4.0. 395 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,000 A grade. 396 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:40,000 That this is it needs to be finalized after the resolution passes. 397 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000 For the second item. 398 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,000 This is to discuss. 399 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,000 Consider approval for the refuse haulers license for the city of Altuna. 400 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000 We have waste management. 401 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,000 There's earthbound environmental solutions. 402 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,000 GFL. 403 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,000 And then thing is that's the trash on trucks. 404 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:03,000 So we have those four signing up for their annual. 405 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,000 Refuse haulers license. 406 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,000 Again, another kind of procedural. 407 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,000 The third item we have. 408 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000 Was there anything additional on? 409 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,000 No. 410 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,000 Okay. 411 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,000 The third is. 412

I'm one of the great writers working on this project. 462 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,000 For the price rate application. 463 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,000 And I have a little PowerPoint for everybody. 464 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,000 Let me just put this up. 465 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,000 There we go. 466 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,000 Um. 467 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,000 Right. 468 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,000 Do you mind just confirming that you can see my screen. 469 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,000 Yes. 470 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,000 Yep. 471 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,000 All right. 472 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,000 Wonderful. 473 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,000 Thanks for your help. 474 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,000 Um. 475 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000 So we're here to talk about Hillcrest's dates. 476 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,000 Um. 477 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,000 Hillcrest is a. 478 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,000 Um. 479 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000 A community that needs a grant. 480 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000 Application to system of some of the issues that they're facing. 481 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,000 What currently. 482 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,000 Hillcrest is a major picture in housing community that has. 483 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:43,000 But I don't know if any medical院 doesn't have any. 484 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,000 Like through theynenering. 485 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,000 For those. 486 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,000 I don't know. 487 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,000 So much including the training. 488 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,000 That has been three to. 489 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,000 Obviously across the community. 490 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,000 And we need to build this change. 491 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,000 Um. 492 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,000 We need to know about it. 493 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,000 There is a formation. 494 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,000 Of these crimes. 495 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,000 Of tendon ac rendezvouss. 496 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,840 Is that a standard part of A Maine suicide by people who won't let the 497 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:11,920 the residents and some of these issues include low bar pressure in the system pumping capacity, 498 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:18,080 just regular average daily demand capacity, and then lack of fire hydrants, there's only 499 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:24,000 one fire hydrant for that whole community, and then there's a potential list of leaking 500 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,520 laterals, mostly due to just the age of the infrastructure. So in 2023, 501 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:35,120 STH worked with health crisis states to do a study, and to just basically determine a best 502 00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:40,400 path forward to correct it. There were several alternatives that were discussed within that study, 503 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:46,080 but the one that came out ahead that it trusts every concern that's going to need a health 504 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:52,880 crisis to go and connect to the city of El Tunis, water distribution system, and abandoned 505 00:25:53,520 --> 00:26:05,840 the health press pilot system, and then redo ladals within the community. So with that comes 506 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:12,400 a tremendous amount of costs, and so on, and I apologize, I got a little ahead of myself, but 507 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:18,800 this is the project that I just mentioned. A bank and a existing private water distribution system 508 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:24,080 built new ladals within the health crisis states, connects the new materials that's 509 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:29,920 done located within health press, to the city of Tunis. We want to bolster the number of fire hydrants, 510 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:38,160 normally mobile communities tend to have a higher risk of fire safety issues, just due to the 511 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:45,440 materials that sometimes are used within those homes. And then with heavy to replace all those ladals, 512 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,560 we'll have to go ahead and address any payment and landscaping that has been removed during that 513 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:58,960 project. So there's a few bases that we're working with. The base water is connected in the existing 514 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:06,000 water system to the El Tunis, and up on your screen, you see the timeline that we're looking at doing 515 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:12,960 phase one, so the base could be completed by 2026. And phase two would be the replacement of the existing 516 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:19,840 water lines within the community, with that project completion, approximately 1027. 517 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:27,120 So there's a lot of benefits of this project, which is why I see a Tunis and health press partnered up. 518 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:33,840 Most importantly is preventive potential closure of health crisis states. This water distribution 519 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:40,880 system has to be corrected. There are some alternative solutions, but at the end of the day they don't 520 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:46,480 solve everything. And so we just want to make sure that everything is solved for the community. 521 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:53,520 The other benefits is addressing the low water pressure system, which can lead to a host of 522 00:27:53,520 --> 00:28:00,000 other issues, primarily sanitation type issues, a hundred capacity issues is moving average 523 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,000 ceiling demand. One of the other things is to increase access to the fire hydrants for us in 524 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:13,280 replace the levels. So as I mentioned, Mr. Pima was told that CDL2 and health press 525 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:20,320 did really work as a great team together to try to figure out any avenue to come up with the funding 526 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:28,400 for replacing this, and so they've tackled almost anything that they can have in reach. So as of today, 527 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:34,800 we've gone in some of the first day drinking water alone to cover some of the costs CDBG grants, 528 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:39,440 that's the public facilities grant, which you've heard in previous meetings. There's been 529 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:45,200 our corporations request, and then today's grant that we're going for, which is the price grant. 530 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:50,320 So just to tell you a little bit about the price grant, the price is the preservation and reinvestment 531 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,880 initiative for community enhancement. This is a hub grant. The support fund has never been offered. 532 00:28:55,920 --> 00:29:04,320 They recently increased the available funding to 235 million. The minimum ask is 5 million. 533 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:13,360 So we are within that parameter. And the funding for the preservation revitalization grant is meant 534 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:22,320 for specifically manufacturing housing and manufacturing housing communities that were be eligible for this. 535 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:30,560 So what makes a project eligible? You have to have that is a local government, a private agency or 536 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:38,400 private entity cannot vote for this grant. So that's why, again, the the partnership between 537 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:44,560 CDL2 and Hillcress's States is just so important to this project. As I said, the funding request is 538 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:50,400 over $5 million. The request that we're going for, the price grant is to cover all full faces, 539 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:57,760 phase one, and phase two, which is the total 13.4 or 5 million. The priest's schedule will request 540 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,320 the project is. 541 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:14,000 Who is several eligible activities listed in that meet the Vice-brand. This is development, or of preventive infrastructure that supports made effector housing communities and resilience activities that would be fire hydrants. 542 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:24,000 The project addresses three of the six high goals that were required for the grant, so it preserves and revitalizes the existing manufacturing housing community. 543 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:32,000 Increases resilience of extreme weather, natural hazards, support energy efficiency, and protect health and safety of made effector housing residents. 544 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:43,000 And we do this in several ways, both one again, the fire hydrants, but two by addressing the more pressure issues that also helps the resilience of the community. 545 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:51,000 And then increase housing supply to 40-40 for a load, moderate income persons in the several of an area. 546 00:30:52,000 --> 00:31:02,000 City alternatives in a unit position, where it's 37% that your LMI is 37.8-6, which doesn't meet the threshold. 547 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:18,000 However, in 2024, SEH and CDBG teamed up and did an income survey just for health justice states in the case one area, and it was determined that the LMI for the community was 61.847, which is well above the threshold. 548 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:25,000 So we are a great and then a great position to actually qualify for this great application. 549 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:41,000 So, a lot of reasons we have some concerns about when they hear about going for grants, what is the match, what are of how's this going to impact me as a resident or as a tenant of health justice states. 550 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:50,000 And I want to make sure that everybody understands that there is absolutely no match required for a price grant, which is why this made it so attractive for city-altitude and to go for. 551 00:31:51,000 --> 00:32:00,000 The project funding being pursued avoids increase in tenants rents or passing on those project costs for replacing the distribution system. 552 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:13,000 And it will impact, as of today, we do not believe that there's going to be any impact current to impact current water rates for county owners outside of health justice states, specifically related to this project. 553 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:23,000 If there are other projects within the community obviously we are not saying that there will be impact to current water rates because we, you know, having children enough. 554 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:31,000 So one of the main things for the price grant was to make sure that the public is actually involved in the application. 555 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:38,000 So we posted the application online earlier in the month to start soliciting comments. 556 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:44,000 Is there anything in that application that the residents have questions with or think should be included. 557 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:50,000 And so that there's a link on the city web page leading to this application. 558 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,000 We have soliciting those comments in multiple ways. 559 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,000 One, two, this public here and today you're welcome to leave a comment. 560 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,000 I believe there's comments sheets in the back of the room for a message to fill up and turn in. 561 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:09,000 The other opportunity is to submit it via email to assistance to the admin. 562 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,000 Roy. 563 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,000 And his emails on the screen for you. 564 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:21,000 And then also if you feel more comfortable to provide again in person, the state clerk's office will take written comments. 565 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,000 We are accepting written comments until tomorrow afternoon. 566 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:33,000 And actually, I'm okay with be able to review all those comments until Monday. 567 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:40,000 So please submit those for us so that we can respond accordingly and answer any questions or concerns that you may perhaps may have. 568 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,000 And then if there's any questions from anyone, the audience. 569 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:51,000 Minor saying there isn't anyone, any residents within their room, but if there's anyone online, it'd be happy to help out. 570 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,000 Thank you. 571 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,000 Thank you. 572 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,000 Anything. 573 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,000 So just the effort that's been put forth on this project. 574 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:10,000 Between Hillcrash, SCH and the city has been pretty amazing. 575 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:15,000 And again, I always talk about serendipity, but this price grant coming up when it did. 576 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,000 And additional funding being provided to it. 577 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,000 This project is an amazing fit. 578 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,000 And of course, we also say this, we're hoping for the best year. 579 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,000 But it really would provide fire safety. 580 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:41,000 Just the deficiencies in the water system and provide more opportunities for additional. 581 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,000 Affordable housing within our community, which is, you know, is very badly needed. 582 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,000 So it's. 583 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,000 We really hope we can get this and thank you to everyone that's worked on it. 584 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,000 I have a question. 585 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000 Is the price grant just for existing developments or is it for new development as well? 586 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,000 I think it's for existing. 587 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,000 Is that right? 588 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,000 Yes, for future communities, but also there is. 589 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:15,000 An enough elements of the price grant to replace multiple units that are older than 1976. 590 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000 And that's in a ratio to one to one to three. 591 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,000 However, to go and do. 592 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:28,000 To be able to put this price grant application together and to calculate all that data is such a short period of time. 593 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:39,000 On the table and on just to be honest, the water distributions at the stone replacement is such a huge ask as it is asking for 13 million. 594 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,000 We want to make sure that we're competitive against other applications. 595 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,000 And we did want to do such a large ask that it would, you know, 596 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,000 you know, deep in the purpose of what we really need here. 597 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,000 And also, Hillcrest has done such a good job in. 598 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:59,000 And updating units and over the past couple years and. 599 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:05,000 So that they that by a tradition that's happened a lot over the last couple years since. 600 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,000 Jen Howard have owned it. 601 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,000 What about storm water and sewer system? 602 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,000 So sort of will. 603 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,000 Is that part of the deal? 604 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:19,000 We already have sort. 605 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,000 Is that into the city or is that their own sewer? 606 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,000 We already have sort of the contribute to our system and we there's a there's a meter at. 607 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:33,000 Yeah, and we built build them based on what the meter flow is there. 608 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,000 And now there's not going to be curb gutter and storm water. 609 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:39,000 It's actually be. 610 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:45,000 Payment will be replaced as is so the storm water will remain status quo. 611 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,000 Thank you. 612 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,000 Anything else. 613 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,000 This is just a citizen participation hearing. 614 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,000 Seeing there are none. 615 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,000 Limal move to close the citizens participation period. 616 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,000 We have a second and a second on favor say hi. 617 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,000 Hi. 618 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,000 You want to post. 619 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:16,000 Thank you again, Laurie and in your crew and the city staff working on this. 620 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,000 And also Howard and N.J. 621 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,000 Yeah, I think like Mike and touched on. 622 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:31,000 This is just you know finding these opportunities and these wins and and combining resources and finding some real long term strategies and solutions. 623 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:33,000 I think this is great. 624 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,000 Thank you. 625 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,000 Again, I've been touched on at the beginning of the meeting. 626 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,000 Moving on item two that item has been removed from the agenda. 627 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,000 I will be seeing that next month. 628 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000 But moving on for item three. 629 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,000 This is the resolution 6024. 630 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,000 This is to amend the city emergency operations plan. 631 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:06,000 Council up for your consideration is an update to the emergency operations plan. 632 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,000 Our last plan was from 2018. 633 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:16,000 And this is really a plan that we should be reviewing every year. 634 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,000 Unfortunately, because there was some turnover in the fire department. 635 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:22,000 It hadn't gotten reviewed. 636 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,000 So we decided to tackle it this year. 637 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,000 Part of that is for accreditation. 638 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,000 We needed to ensure that our plan was up to date and at the requirements of accreditation. 639 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:39,000 So the police department, Sergeant Henning spent a lot of time on this working with the fire department. 640 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:45,000 And other city department had to ensure that it's up to date. 641 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,000 There was a number of just. 642 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,000 I was out to date. 643 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,000 This plan still referred to the emergency service director, which we no longer had. 644 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:02,000 So we divided those tasks between the police chief and the fire chief. 645 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,000 Where appropriate. 646 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,000 We also. 647 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:12,000 We also have to have somebody dedicated or somebody assigned to the emergency management position for the city. 648 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:19,000 So the fire chief chief renderman is now the emergency management director. 649 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:25,000 If he would have updated this I probably would have been but since I updated it he is. 650 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:33,000 No he's the he's a better fit for the position I his position falls more within the emergency management portion of it. 651 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:40,000 We also updated our backup locations in the event of an emergency. 652 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:50,000 We updated our list of city buildings and the resources that we have available at those those buildings just to ensure staff had that information. 653 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:56,000 Yeah, and that's pretty much it unless you guys have any questions about it. 654 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:03,000 In the event of emergency something major catastrophic event. 655 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,000 I mean our council members called on to. 656 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,000 Help do whatever. 657 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,000 But you can go ahead if you want. 658 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,000 There there may be some ass in requests for council members to come in assist. 659 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:23,000 I know city administration elected officials are on our list and it be. 660 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:29,000 I think the mayor is one of the first people on the council president and so on that really big. 661 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,000 Yeah, so the attorney as well. 662 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:41,000 There's a lot of documentation that needs to happen and it needs to be very thorough finance and administration of the department all together to come in to. 663 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:52,000 Yeah, the council in most circumstances would largely still fulfill their policy level role and in particular budget. 664 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,000 And emergency declaration. 665 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:03,000 So that we would be eligible for funding and for emergency expenditure of funds, but also. 666 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:10,000 If if something really bats happen, we may I'll be out there with sandbags. I mean boots on the ground. Yeah, right. 667 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:19,000 Yeah, so and but we you know, we we had an exercise here a couple months ago that really put that into perspective. 668 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:24,000 On a staff level on whatever once roll would be and. 669 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:35,000 Assigning people that could pull other people in as needed. So I think we're in good shape and we're going to expand that this fall we're going to have a countywide is that right. 670 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,000 Yeah, working we're working on some additional planning from this year in the even next year. 671 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,000 But the big thing is the networking between the departments. 672 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:51,000 And as this it grows will have a larger event where we'll need more people to participate in. 673 00:41:52,000 --> 00:42:00,000 And that was one of the things that we were lacking is that we really weren't doing a lot of table top training on ICS as a city. 674 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:08,000 We do it department wide for for various different things in the fire department does it for various things as well. 675 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:14,000 But we brought the entire all of the department had together to do training, which is important. 676 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:21,000 You know, and as far as council goes, it kind of depends on the situation and what your skillset may be. 677 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:28,000 So we very well may lean on people that have certain skill sets that would be valuable to the situation at hand. 678 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:36,000 Yeah, we may have call center set up where we might have people taking it could be anything. 679 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,000 All right. 680 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,000 Any other discussion or questions on this? 681 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:49,000 Lamon move to prove resolution 60-24 a resolution. 682 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,000 I'm ending the tuna city emergency operations plan. 683 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,000 Will you pull the second. 684 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,000 Thank you motion and second home favor say aye. 685 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000 I want to post motion carries. 686 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,000 I think you again. 687 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:04,000 Moving on to item four. 688 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:12,000 This is to discuss consider council approval to order the public works trucks chassis to be paid for in the 2025 budget. 689 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:18,000 It's kind of let me just so this is a bit unusual in that it's mid year. 690 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:25,000 We're asking to order it recognizing that it's not budget but that we will budget it and pay for it next year. 691 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:33,000 It's it's just the world we live in with a long lead times now and with that I'm just going to turn over Scott to talk about the need for the. 692 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:35,000 John earlier. 693 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,000 Pressing, right. 694 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,000 So you may remember, two years ago. 695 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,000 David Walter came before you and kind of asked the same question. 696 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,000 Heber anticipating purchasing the public works truck in the year 2020 to re? 697 00:43:51,000 --> 00:44:00,000 To, and knowing that the lead times to really stretching out there Yeah, that truck is not earned a wheel in this town yet. 698 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,700 So this fall, it'll plow snow for us. 699 00:44:02,700 --> 00:44:10,300 So, her perspective, we kind of tried to budget one of our big dollar items every year. 700 00:44:10,300 --> 00:44:11,900 The sweeper was this year. 701 00:44:12,900 --> 00:44:17,800 And last year was the public works truck that still isn't here. 702 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,900 Year before that, the factor, et cetera. 703 00:44:21,900 --> 00:44:27,700 And we do have about a dozen items that are in that higher price range that really, 704 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,400 you can only really afford to do maybe one year, loaders, et cetera. 705 00:44:32,900 --> 00:44:35,200 So, we're anticipating this year coming up. 706 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,600 It's going to be another one of our plow trucks. 707 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:43,600 This would be replacing the, if you've seen the orange truck with the big grind tank in the back of it, 708 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:44,500 that's the one. 709 00:44:44,500 --> 00:44:49,600 It's from the year 2000 and it is, it's definitely due for replacement. 710 00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:55,400 Now, the good thing is that in 2027, when we come and talk about this again, 711 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,800 we'll be replacing a truck from 2012. 712 00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,600 So there it is. 713 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:15,000 They become a little bit newer, but this one definitely needs it. And talk with finance director Tina Nelson about this and kind of looked at this schedule or at what the 2025 budget looked like and it does feel like it will be. 714 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:29,000 And the CIP and the CIP. And so we're so it does look like it'll fit in there without stretching the budget too much. And kind of there's really not a way to lose in the situation and talking with the chassis manufacturers. 715 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:43,000 If you order a chassis and and you decide to step away from it, if the budget shifts and we're just not able to afford it, we can walk away from it and there's not a penalty and we don't have to put any money down right now. 716 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:57,000 But this just gets us out in front of it. And the lead times are shrinking now. So if we move on this relatively quickly we'll be able to get this in the service in 2025. 717 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:10,000 It's only pretty good proactive approach on the way you guys are strategically going after these trucks and allowing for the lead times that we're now finally starting to get used to or expecting. 718 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:17,000 Yeah, it's it varies so much from one thing to the next, you kind of have to be adaptable, I guess. 719 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:24,000 Lime will move to approve the ordering of the worked our chassis to be paid in the 2025 budget. 720 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:33,000 We're all second. All right, motion second. All in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Anyone opposed.

739 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,000 It is on the same. 740 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,000 It is on the same for this. 741 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,000 The chassis, the only thing. 742 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:44,000 We would be ordering the chassis and the conversion done by the same company. 743 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:50,000 The company actually has the chassis being built right now at this time. 744 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:57,000 And because they do have a certain amount of trucks that they build as a standard product line. 745 00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:04,000 And we can make some additions to that chassis built as a tender. 746 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:09,000 But yeah, would be all together. 747 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,000 I know thanks again for allowing me to present this. 748 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,000 I did talk to Tina about this. 749 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,000 Trock, because this truck has gone up a lot in price. 750 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:24,000 Since last year when we did budget and I was shocked. 751 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:31,000 Even as I approached the end of last year, they were giving me signals of significant increases. 752 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,000 It went up much higher than I anticipated. 753 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,000 And we know that chassis costs are going up. 754 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:41,000 Going up by 20. 755 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,000 I think sometime in the year 2026. 756 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:48,000 And we're not exactly certain of what the amount is going to be. 757 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,000 But it's new standards. 758 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,000 It's going to cause it to go up. 759 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,000 The estimated between 60 and 90,000. 760 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,000 At most of them made chassis. 761 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,000 We are told they know it's 90,000 dollars. 762 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,000 On a custom made, this is a commercial chassis truck. 763 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:09,000 It could be a freight liner with the water tank put on as well as a pump. 764 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:12,000 90,000 dollars more or just 90,000. 765 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,000 90,000 more. 766 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:17,000 And that's just the engine portion that does not include the other materials going to. 767 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:22,000 To build the vehicle. 768 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,000 That's how much things are changing. 769 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:28,000 Yeah, that's exactly the look I had on my face when I found this out. 770 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,000 And so we're rapidly working together. 771 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,000 I called Tina. 772 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:32,000 That's what can we do. 773 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,000 I talked to Mike about it. 774 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,000 Which is going to cost? 775 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,000 What part? 776 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:39,000 How much is it going to cost? 777 00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:43,000 490,000 and so on. 778 00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:44,000 490,000. 779 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:49,000 That's the point is we're trying to get ahead of the increases. 780 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,000 Yeah. 781 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:54,000 And this is anticipating those additional cost increases. 782 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:59,000 The longer we wait, the more more it's costing and it's due to a lot of inflationary things 783 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:03,000 in parts availability. 784 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:10,000 And so we sent this out to through a sourceball program for a government bidding. 785 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:16,000 Which I got about to start it on with the generator for the building. 786 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:20,000 And I was talking to some of the manufacturers and one of them says, 787 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:27,000 Well, you're a sourceball member and so they would give us the government rate being a sourceball member. 788 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:34,000 So we sent this out to four manufacturers that were interested in pricing. 789 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:38,000 Two of them told us they cannot deliver the truck in 2025. 790 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:44,000 And that's really where we had it on our schedule for capital was in the 2025 year. 791 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:48,000 Two of them said they couldn't deliver until 2026. 792 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:53,000 One of them was mid year, early the mid year and the other one was late in the year. 793 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:58,000 And then we had two that said they could deliver. 794 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:05,000 The one of them was over five like around five hundred and sixty thousand dollars. 795 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:09,000 And then this one was the lower lower cost apparatus. 796 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,000 And we currently do not have one. 797 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,000 Or we do not have a tender and that's a big water tank. 798 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:21,000 Yeah, yeah, it's a tank or truck and it would be a 3000 gallon. 799 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:28,000 And where this it becomes critical is we just talked about the health crest of states. 800 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:31,000 We wait for water now there. 801 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:37,000 Like that that is going to be huge when if we get all these grants and as soon as that work it started, 802 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,000 I'll be really really happy. 803 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:43,000 But we have some non-hydrated areas in our community. 804 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:51,000 And we have additional concerns with the changes in manufactured manufacturing of vehicles. 805 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:58,000 There's more electric vehicles out there that there may not be a hydrant nearby that we can tap into without shutting down, 806 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:04,000 you know, like highway 53 traffic, which would create a whole another problem. 807 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,000 A tender gets us a lot of water on site. 808 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:11,000 We have the rail yard we have areas along Lake Road. 809 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:18,000 And even a few other streets in town that that hydrants are not easily accessible. 810 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,000 Do we have a ability to fill that? 811 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:21,000 Yeah, we can fill it. 812 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,000 We can go to a hydrant and fill it. 813 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,000 Okay. 814 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:30,000 And with that with that truck we can actually go to a static water source like a pond or a lake in drop. 815 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:41,000 A hose in the water and then take water out of the out of the lake or pond or river as long as we can get to it. 816 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:48,000 We're also working on a high capacity filling system at our public works yard as well. 817 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:56,000 But really you can fill it at any any the tender at any hydrant and I'll take about three minutes to fill it because of the water pressure system we have. 818 00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:09,000 And and during the winter when Mike would talk to about having a fill fill spot, we can go to our buildings and fill and then take the truck in and let it fall, especially if you're running running a lot. 819 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:17,000 You have a habit of or a tendency I shouldn't have but a tendency to break valves if you don't fall out if they freeze and then they end up breaking. 820 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:24,000 So right now we don't have a tender we rely on township they are a great great partner for us. 821 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:30,000 But sometimes you know they've got their own calls to do sometimes there's a delay in getting there. 822 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,000 And we wait for water. 823 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:42,000 And and I mean especially with I mean we're looking at put the water system in at Hillcrest that's three hundred forty homes are protected right now. 824 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:51,000 So I can see the need to have one looking down the road though at some point what we have water. 825 00:53:51,000 --> 00:54:01,000 At most of these sources where the need for the tender becomes less I mean not so much this one but the replacement one which will be a million dollars. 826 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:08,000 That's that's what I'm looking at I mean at some point what we have water going to these areas so we don't have to you know. 827 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:11,000 I think about that. I hope so. 828 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,000 The the big one is Hillcrest. 829 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,000 The next one is Lake Road and I don't know. 830 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:24,000 I don't anticipate the next 20 years that we're going to have water down Lake Road. 831 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:25,000 Okay. 832 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:32,000 The rail yard doesn't help us either we're lucky there that we've been able to to get those fires out early on those and meet. 833 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:44,000 We haven't used a lot of lot of water on those but there the day comes where we could have a significant problem in the rail yard too. 834 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:51,000 And yeah problems at the rail yard are usually bigger problems are they're going to require of you know the substantial amount of water and equipment. 835 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:59,000 The nice thing about the rail yard is usually someone working there or someone's on the equipment and they find it or they see it on the camera and they call it. 836 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:05,000 They get a started right away where you run into a real big issue is like overnight time. 837 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:17,000 Sometimes nobody notices it or law enforcement finds it and they call us and it's been a problem for an hour already or you know or half hour or so. 838 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:24,000 And then I suppose some of that the ones I can't can't respond or couldn't fill the order. 839 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:30,000 There's probably a rush or there's a lot of a lot of departments that are looking to get in ahead of that emissions standard upgrade. 840 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,000 Yeah. 841 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:45,000 Well there is but everyone is behind on on getting apparatus because of supply chain issues I mean if you order an engine or an aerial truck you're talking three years four years. 842 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:55,000 You know they said aerial trucks are like four years some of the manufacturers might be might be two and a half to three years but engines take even longer and this truck does have a pump on it. 843 00:55:55,000 --> 00:56:11,000 As as well but it if I would if we were to design a a custom apparatus nobody can build it for us beat and tell sometime in 2026 we're taking a scheduled truck off the line adding a few features to it. 844 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:17,000 So it fits our profile and they'll put her they'll take us on that truck. 845 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:26,000 These things usually do not finish manufacturing and they're sitting there for sale because there's such a demand form. 846 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:34,000 So the difference between this one and the previous agenda item is when we order this we order it and it's ours and it's all manufactured. 847 00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:43,000 Because it's manufactured to our very specific specifications and they're building it for us whereas. 848 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:55,000 Scott starts pretty generic the chassis at least and could just be used for anything so just know that when we order this it's ours. 849 00:56:55,000 --> 00:57:05,000 We're all moved to approve of purchase of a water tender to be delivered in paid for in 2025 in the amount of 402,641 dollars from fire apparatus and equipment in. 850 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:10,000 My most I can thank you we have a motion a second all in favor say aye. 851 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,000 Anyone opposed motion carries. 852 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:18,000 Thank you. 853 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:33,000 All right then just get it see this is for item six this is the discussing to approve of the contract for services with the Center for Public Safety Management LLC for the comprehensive analysis of fire and EMS deployment. 854 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:40,000 So you know this is been a long time coming in as much as. 855 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:48,000 As you heard at the beginning of the meeting demand for fire service and responses gone up significantly. 856 00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:56,000 We've had operational issues and agreements related to EMS we've had. 857 00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:03,000 In addition of FTEs the fire department over the past couple years. 858 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:10,000 We have issues with recruiting and retaining our paid on call staff. 859 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:13,000 And. 860 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:24,000 What this really represents what we've been focused on the facilities part of it over about the last year year and a half trying to get that figured out. 861 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:32,000 But now we really need to focus on operations and from a management part perspective as someone that. 862 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:38,000 Is not next for in fire operations. 863 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:52,000 This group works very closely with the National City Manager Association and they they look at it from the perspective of managing city as a whole. 864 00:58:52,000 --> 00:59:00,000 How that fits into those city operations but they are experts in the field of. 865 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:12,000 Fire operations so they'll have that perspective they'll both perspectives they'll have the perspective of the people that have worked in the fire department but also. 866 00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,000 We have a lot of. 867 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,000 Temper that with. 868 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:22,000 The overall management perspective which I I appreciate because I. 869 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:26,000 You know I kind of have to depend on what. 870 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:31,000 Mark and Kelly tell me with regard to please fire operations because it's very specialized very. 871 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,000 You know cause I military. 872 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:43,000 But with many many layers of rules regulation standards so bringing someone in that knows all that. 873 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,000 And can. 874 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:52,000 Look at our call volume look at what kind of calls we're responding to. 875 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:58,000 And see what that what's reasonable compared to benchmarking with other. 876 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,000 Like communities and. 877 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:14,000 Being aware of best management practices and other communities, it's going to be really helpful for us to make decisions with fire operations moving forward. 878 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:28,000 So the contract is not cheap. It's $50,000, but I think it's money well spent. It's a very comprehensive study. This is what they do.
