. Glasson

213
00:02:38,497 --> 00:02:38,898
was hired with

214
00:02:38,898 --> 00:02:39,999
the intent

215
00:02:39,999 --> 00:02:40,499
of

216
00:02:40,499 --> 00:02:41,320
designing an

217
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:41,433
all-electric

218
00:02:41,433 --> 00:02:41,800
vessel to

219
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,434
replace the

220
00:02:42,434 --> 00:02:43,350
current

221
00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:43,635
diesel power ferry

222
00:02:43,635 --> 00:02:45,370
that we have

223
00:02:45,370 --> 00:02:45,705
They

224
00:02:45,705 --> 00:02:46,720
worked on that design for

225
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:46,838
quite a

226
00:02:46,838 --> 00:02:47,106
while

227
00:02:47,106 --> 00:02:47,473
and

228
00:02:47,473 --> 00:02:47,974
finally

229
00:02:47,974 --> 00:02:49,842
in

230
00:02:49,842 --> 00:02:50,420
2023, we went out for a

231
00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:50,543
bid at

232
00:02:50,543 --> 00:02:51,777
the end of the

233
00:02:51,777 --> 00:02:52,780
year for the

234
00:02:52,780 --> 00:02:52,411
new

235
00:02:52,411 --> 00:02:53,980
vessel

236
00:02:53,980 --> 00:02:54,747
. In JANUARY

237
00:02:54,747 --> 00:02:56,150
of 2024

238
00:02:56,150 --> 00:02:56,749
, the

239
00:02:56,749 --> 00:02:57,617
commissioners rejected those

240
00:02:57,617 --> 00:02:58,384
bids. They did come in higher

241
00:02:58,384 --> 00:02:59,185
than

242
00:02:59,185 --> 00:02:59,452
the engineer's estimate.

243
00:02:59,452 --> 00:03:00,786
Uh

244
00:03:00,786 --> 00:03:02,588
, the vessel

245
00:03:02,588 --> 00:03:03,423
, uh,

246
00:03:03,423 --> 00:03:05,240
construction bids came in at 23

247
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:05,757
to

248
00:03:05,757 --> 00:03:07,757
$24 million

249
00:03:07,994 --> 00:03:08,261
. At the

250
00:03:08,261 --> 00:03:09,895
same

251
00:03:09,895 --> 00:03:10,229
time, uh, some of our

252
00:03:10,229 --> 00:03:10,402
funding

253
00:03:10,402 --> 00:03:10,630
,

254
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:11,731
which

255
00:03:11,731 --> 00:03:12,650
totaled

256
00:03:12,650 --> 00:03:12,264
about

257
00:03:12,264 --> 00:03:12,532
35

258
00:03:12,532 --> 00:03:12,965
million

259
00:03:12,965 --> 00:03:13,800
potentially

260
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:14,267
at

261
00:03:14,267 --> 00:03:14,500
that point

262
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:15,134
was

263
00:03:15,134 --> 00:03:16,869
in jeopardy, with

264
00:03:16,869 --> 00:03:17,537
24

265
00:03:17,537 --> 00:03:17,971
million

266
00:03:17,971 --> 00:03:18,538
being from

267
00:03:18,538 --> 00:03:18,972
the

268
00:03:18,972 --> 00:03:19,539
cca and

269
00:03:19,539 --> 00:03:19,972
the cca

270
00:03:19,972 --> 00:03:21,341
going for

271
00:03:21,341 --> 00:03:21,808
a

272
00:03:21,808 --> 00:03:22,275
vote

273
00:03:22,275 --> 00:03:23,743
in NOVEMBER

2024

276
00:03:25,544 --> 00:03:26,446
to possibly

277
00:03:26,446 --> 00:03:26,846
uh be repealed

278
00:03:26,846 --> 00:03:27,790
meaning

279
00:03:27,790 --> 00:03:27,747
we

280
00:03:27,747 --> 00:03:28,148
would

281
00:03:28,148 --> 00:03:28,581
potentially

282
00:03:28,581 --> 00:03:29,115
lose $24

283
00:03:29,115 --> 00:03:29,949
million in

00:03:30,850 --> 00:03:31,284
the

Climate Commitment Act

290
00:03:33,620 --> 00:03:33,886
funding.

291
00:03:33,886 --> 00:03:34,153
Yeah

292
00:03:34,153 --> 00:03:35,288
, we

293
00:03:35,288 --> 00:03:35,822
, we received that

294
00:03:35,822 --> 00:03:36,222
through the Move

295
00:03:36,222 --> 00:03:37,230
Ahead

296

Washington Act

297
00:03:37,356 --> 00:03:37,791
and two

298
00:03:37,791 --> 00:03:38,224
separate

299
00:03:38,224 --> 00:03:39,292
installments

300
00:03:39,292 --> 00:03:39,492
. Of

301
00:03:39,492 --> 00:03:39,960
14

302
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,610
and then

303
00:03:41,610 --> 00:03:41,428
10

304
00:03:41,428 --> 00:03:42,280
million

305
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,496
, uh, which the 10

306
00:03:43,496 --> 00:03:44,300
million was

307
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:44,631
subject to that

308
00:03:44,631 --> 00:03:46,398
vote in NOVEMBER

309
00:03:46,398 --> 00:03:48,330
of 2024

310
00:03:48,330 --> 00:03:49,135
. The

311
00:03:49,135 --> 00:03:50,270
um, the voters voted in

312
00:03:50,270 --> 00:03:50,670
NOVEMBER

313
00:03:50,670 --> 00:03:50,971
of 24. It

314
00:03:50,971 --> 00:03:51,404
did not

315
00:03:51,404 --> 00:03:51,738
get

316
00:03:51,738 --> 00:03:52,906
repealed

317
00:03:52,906 --> 00:03:53,272
. But we

318
00:03:53,272 --> 00:03:53,573
did not go

319
00:03:53,573 --> 00:03:54,608
back

320
00:03:54,608 --> 00:03:54,841
out for

321
00:03:54,841 --> 00:03:55,175
bid

322
00:03:55,175 --> 00:03:55,442
, rather

323
00:03:55,442 --> 00:03:57,177
, the

324
00:03:57,177 --> 00:03:59,450
board decided that they

325
00:03:59,450 --> 00:03:59,679
wanted

326
00:03:59,679 --> 00:04:00,312
to

327
00:04:00,312 --> 00:04:01,982
give

328
00:04:01,982 --> 00:04:02,482
um the citizens of

329
00:04:02,482 --> 00:04:03,717
voice in

330
00:04:03,717 --> 00:04:03,984
the project at the

331
00:04:03,984 --> 00:04:04,284
time

332
00:04:04,284 --> 00:04:04,851
, there

333
00:04:04,851 --> 00:04:06,386
were concerns about

334
00:04:06,386 --> 00:04:07,721
the

335
00:04:07,721 --> 00:04:08,822
all-electric replacement

336
00:04:08,822 --> 00:04:09,489
,

337
00:04:09,489 --> 00:04:10,123
uh, technology specific to

338
00:04:10,123 --> 00:04:10,657
the

339
00:04:10,657 --> 00:04:11,224
charging arm

340
00:04:11,224 --> 00:04:11,491
, its size

341
00:04:11,491 --> 00:04:11,992
, its

342
00:04:11,992 --> 00:04:13,260
cost

343
00:04:13,260 --> 00:04:14,895
, it's complexity

344
00:04:14,895 --> 00:04:15,162
. And so

345
00:04:15,162 --> 00:04:15,629
,

346
00:04:15,629 --> 00:04:16,897
uh, the board

347
00:04:16,897 --> 00:04:17,231
elected

348
00:04:17,231 --> 00:04:17,498
to form

349
00:04:17,498 --> 00:04:18,232
the

350
00:04:18,232 --> 00:04:19,299
temporary advisory

351
00:04:19,299 --> 00:04:19,666
group to

352
00:04:19,666 --> 00:04:20,233
give you

353
00:04:20,233 --> 00:04:21,568
a recommendation

354
00:04:21,568 --> 00:04:21,935
. Uh

355
00:04:21,935 --> 00:04:22,402
,

356
00:04:22,402 --> 00:04:23,704
they were

357
00:04:23,704 --> 00:04:23,937
informed

358
00:04:23,937 --> 00:04:24,371
of

359
00:04:24,371 --> 00:04:24,738
uh

360
00:04:24,738 --> 00:04:26,730
project

361
00:04:26,730 --> 00:04:26,373
history

362
00:04:26,373 --> 00:04:26,773
timeline. We

363
00:04:26,773 --> 00:04:27,374
went over

364
00:04:27,374 --> 00:04:28,208
the initial design

365
00:04:28,208 --> 00:04:29,900
.

366
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:29,510
We went over all of the

367
00:04:29,510 --> 00:04:30,744
different

368
00:04:30,744 --> 00:04:31,450
propulsion options.

369
00:04:31,450 --> 00:04:31,645
They

370
00:04:31,645 --> 00:04:33,800
really spent a lot of

371
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:33,948
time

372
00:04:33,948 --> 00:04:34,281
volunteering their time on this

373
00:04:34,281 --> 00:04:36,281
group

374
00:04:36,383 --> 00:04:36,984
, digging into the work

375
00:04:36,984 --> 00:04:37,985
that's already

376
00:04:37,985 --> 00:04:38,619
been done

377
00:04:38,619 --> 00:04:39,186
and

378
00:04:39,186 --> 00:04:39,820
thoughtfully creating

379
00:04:39,820 --> 00:04:40,521
a

380
00:04:40,521 --> 00:04:40,954

they're going to produce

386
00:04:43,724 --> 00:04:44,492
our

387
00:04:44,492 --> 00:04:45,920

propulsion

404
00:04:52,567 --> 00:04:53,167
options that

405
00:04:53,167 --> 00:04:53,501
they

406
00:04:53,501 --> 00:04:53,767
looked

00:04:53,767 --> 00:04:55,767
more

about

413
00:04:58,806 --> 00:04:59,106
the project itself, I'll

414
00:04:59,106 --> 00:04:59,874
turn

415
00:04:59,874 --> 00:05:00,107

00:05:30,371 --> 00:05:30,705
cost estimates

459
00:05:30,705 --> 00:05:31,390
, and

460
00:05:31,390 --> 00:05:31,372
we

461
00:05:31,372 --> 00:05:31,773
should

the

471
00:05:35,610 --> 00:05:36,411
tag

472
00:05:36,411 --> 00:05:36,677
recommendation, you'll also

473
00:05:36,677 --> 00:05:36,978
see

474
00:05:36,978 --> 00:05:37,378
the

475
00:05:37,378 --> 00:05:37,912
value

476
00:05:37,912 --> 00:05:38,379
engineering

477
00:05:38,379 --> 00:05:38,713
recommendations

478
00:05:38,713 --> 00:05:38,879
. The

479
00:05:38,879 --> 00:05:39,514
value

480
00:05:39,514 --> 00:05:40,480
engineering is just on

481
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:40,482
an

482
00:05:40,482 --> 00:05:40,949
all-electric

483
00:05:40,949 --> 00:05:42,884
type of

484
00:05:42,884 --> 00:05:43,460
ferry

485
00:05:43,460 --> 00:05:43,451
,

486
00:05:43,451 --> 00:05:44,986
correct? The

487
00:05:44,986 --> 00:05:45,320
value engineering

488
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:45,553
looked

489
00:05:45,553 --> 00:05:46,320
at

490
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,560
the all-electric

491
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:48,389
uh

492
00:05:48,389 --> 00:05:49,124
design

493
00:05:49,124 --> 00:05:49,490
as

494
00:05:49,490 --> 00:05:50,157
a base

495
00:05:50,157 --> 00:05:51,860
. Uh

496
00:05:51,860 --> 00:05:52,227
, several

497
00:05:52,227 --> 00:05:52,627
ideas and

498
00:05:52,627 --> 00:05:52,894
proposals

499
00:05:52,894 --> 00:05:54,596
were

500
00:05:54,596 --> 00:05:54,996
generated surrounding

501
00:05:54,996 --> 00:05:55,430
different

502
00:05:55,430 --> 00:05:56,197
alternatives

503
00:05:56,197 --> 00:05:56,831
and

504
00:05:56,831 --> 00:05:57,132
options

505
00:05:57,132 --> 00:05:59,132
for

506
00:05:59,334 --> 00:05:59,734
your consideration

507
00:05:59,734 --> 00:06:00,902
. Um

508
00:06:00,902 --> 00:06:01,700
so yes

509
00:06:01,700 --> 00:06:01,436
,

510
00:06:01,436 --> 00:06:01,836
it focused on

511
00:06:01,836 --> 00:06:02,771
all electric

512
00:06:02,771 --> 00:06:03,705
as

513
00:06:03,705 --> 00:06:05,439
the base design

514
00:06:05,439 --> 00:06:06,740
. Thank

515
00:06:06,740 --> 00:06:07,308

Thank you very much for the

518
00:06:08,743 --> 00:06:09,778

time and effort and

525
00:06:12,748 --> 00:06:13,181

knowledge

527
00:06:14,182 --> 00:06:14,749
that this group

528
00:06:14,749 --> 00:06:15,170
brought together. It

529
00:06:15,170 --> 00:06:15,217
was

530
00:06:15,217 --> 00:06:15,584
really

531
00:06:15,584 --> 00:06:16,917
important

537
00:06:20,889 --> 00:06:21,189
a good

538
00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:21,423

543
00:06:23,458 --> 00:06:23,825
and I

544
00:06:23,825 --> 00:06:24,920
think we're

545
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:24,593

546
00:06:24,593 --> 00:06:26,528

hope

549
00:06:27,362 --> 00:06:28,163
it's useful to you

550
00:06:28,163 --> 00:06:30,650
. Um

551
00:06:30,650 --> 00:06:30,532
uh

I

575
00:06:48,484 --> 00:06:49,151
can't see who else is in the

576
00:06:49,151 --> 00:06:49,451
room either

577
00:06:49,451 --> 00:06:50,619
. Alan

578
00:06:50,619 --> 00:06:50,853
and Ryan

579
00:06:50,853 --> 00:06:51,120
are

580
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:51,453

Ellen, for being there to

585
00:06:53,789 --> 00:06:55,224
represent

586
00:06:55,224 --> 00:06:55,691
. Ok

587
00:06:55,691 --> 00:06:55,991
. Just real quick,

588
00:06:55,991 --> 00:06:56,959
it

589
00:06:56,959 --> 00:06:57,526
looks

590
00:06:57,526 --> 00:06:57,792
like Jonah. Might

591
00:06:57,792 --> 00:06:59,395
be

592
00:06:59,395 --> 00:06:59,929
online because sometimes. Yeah,

593
00:06:59,929 --> 00:07:00,195
I expected Jonah

594
00:07:00,195 --> 00:07:01,296
. He's

595
00:07:01,296 --> 00:07:01,931
iPhone.

596
00:07:01,931 --> 00:07:03,732
Jonah, are you with us

597
00:07:03,732 --> 00:07:03,933
? Oh

598
00:07:03,933 --> 00:07:04,233
, I

599
00:07:04,233 --> 00:07:04,767
see

600
00:07:04,767 --> 00:07:06,201
it right here

601
00:07:06,201 --> 00:07:06,435
. Jonah

602
00:07:06,435 --> 00:07:08,204
is

603
00:07:08,204 --> 00:07:08,971
a

604
00:07:08,971 --> 00:07:09,572
tugboat captain, and he spends

605
00:07:09,572 --> 00:07:10,539
a lot of time there

606
00:07:10,539 --> 00:07:10,840
, so he

607
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:11,607
, he

608
00:07:11,607 --> 00:07:12,641
was in our meetings

609
00:07:12,641 --> 00:07:12,808
often

610
00:07:12,808 --> 00:07:13,375
by

611
00:07:13,375 --> 00:07:13,643
Zoom because he

612
00:07:13,643 --> 00:07:15,643
was

613
00:07:16,478 --> 00:07:17,246
anchored

614
00:07:17,246 --> 00:07:17,947
someplace, which was sort of

615
00:07:17,947 --> 00:07:18,314
appropriate for our

616
00:07:18,314 --> 00:07:19,348
group

617
00:07:19,348 --> 00:07:19,982
, uh,

618
00:07:19,982 --> 00:07:20,249
but anyway, good morning

619
00:07:20,249 --> 00:07:21,716
, uh

620
00:07:21,716 --> 00:07:22,485
. I

621
00:07:22,485 --> 00:07:23,190
think most people in this room

622
00:07:23,190 --> 00:07:23,853
know me because

623
00:07:23,853 --> 00:07:24,353
I've been

624
00:07:24,353 --> 00:07:24,887
involved with the

625
00:07:24,887 --> 00:07:25,288
ferry for a

626
00:07:25,288 --> 00:07:26,550
decade or

627
00:07:26,550 --> 00:07:26,422
so

628
00:07:26,422 --> 00:07:27,123
or

629
00:07:27,123 --> 00:07:28,791
more except

630
00:07:28,791 --> 00:07:29,258
Joe

631
00:07:29,258 --> 00:07:30,126
who's not

632
00:07:30,126 --> 00:07:32,126
here yet

633
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:38,568
. Let's see,

634
00:07:38,568 --> 00:07:39,769
I just have

635
00:07:39,769 --> 00:07:40,270
to push these

636
00:07:40,270 --> 00:07:42,270
buttons, right

637
00:07:42,272 --> 00:07:44,272
? Ok

638
00:07:47,243 --> 00:07:48,745
ok

639
00:07:48,745 --> 00:07:48,978
, well

640
00:07:48,978 --> 00:07:49,612
, we

641
00:07:49,612 --> 00:07:49,913
were created as a

642
00:07:49,913 --> 00:07:51,181
technical

643
00:07:51,181 --> 00:07:52,948
advisory group

644
00:07:52,948 --> 00:07:53,450
, uh, by

645
00:07:53,450 --> 00:07:53,817
resolution, which

646
00:07:53,817 --> 00:07:54,117
the numbers

647
00:07:54,117 --> 00:07:56,520
there

648
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:56,352
. And asked to do

649
00:07:56,352 --> 00:07:58,221
these

650
00:07:58,221 --> 00:07:58,888
things

651
00:07:58,888 --> 00:08:00,888
, uh, that to

652
00:08:02,625 --> 00:08:02,859
in

653
00:08:02,859 --> 00:08:03,460
fact,

654
00:08:03,460 --> 00:08:04,394
let me just sort of

655
00:08:04,394 --> 00:08:05,950
say one

656
00:08:05,950 --> 00:08:06,562
thing. There's sort of a

657
00:08:06,562 --> 00:08:07,264
a

658
00:08:07,264 --> 00:08:07,997
feeling of some of the things

659
00:08:07,997 --> 00:08:09,733
that were said just this

660
00:08:09,733 --> 00:08:11,134
morning that we were looking at

661
00:08:11,134 --> 00:08:11,468
a

662
00:08:11,468 --> 00:08:11,735
complete

663
00:08:11,735 --> 00:08:12,102
set

664
00:08:12,102 --> 00:08:12,469
of

665
00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:13,703
options for

666
00:08:13,703 --> 00:08:14,371
a

667
00:08:14,371 --> 00:08:15,472
new

668
00:08:15,472 --> 00:08:16,139
ferry

669
00:08:16,139 --> 00:08:16,873
. Actually, what we

670
00:08:16,873 --> 00:08:17,874
focused on, because it

671
00:08:17,874 --> 00:08:18,475
makes

672
00:08:18,475 --> 00:08:19,109
sense when you work

673
00:08:19,109 --> 00:08:19,309
through

674
00:08:19,309 --> 00:08:21,770
it

675
00:08:21,770 --> 00:08:22,412
was what, looking at

676
00:08:22,412 --> 00:08:23,713
the

677
00:08:23,713 --> 00:08:24,140
alternative propulsion options.

678
00:08:24,140 --> 00:08:24,748
That's

679
00:08:24,748 --> 00:08:25,480
really

680
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:25,449
what's

681
00:08:25,449 --> 00:08:26,283
key in

682
00:08:26,283 --> 00:08:27,170
terms

683
00:08:27,170 --> 00:08:27,917
of

684
00:08:27,917 --> 00:08:28,385
size

685
00:08:28,385 --> 00:08:29,190
or capacity

686
00:08:29,190 --> 00:08:29,386
,

687
00:08:29,386 --> 00:08:30,220
things

688
00:08:30,220 --> 00:08:30,553
like that

689
00:08:30,553 --> 00:08:31,870
are

690
00:08:31,870 --> 00:08:31,655
well done

691
00:08:31,655 --> 00:08:32,189
and

692
00:08:32,189 --> 00:08:32,521
probably

693
00:08:32,521 --> 00:08:33,900
quite

694
00:08:33,900 --> 00:08:33,490
useful from

695
00:08:33,490 --> 00:08:34,124
the

696
00:08:34,124 --> 00:08:34,391
Gloucestton design

697
00:08:34,391 --> 00:08:35,580
from

698
00:08:35,580 --> 00:08:35,292
years ago

699
00:08:35,292 --> 00:08:35,825
, so

700
00:08:35,825 --> 00:08:36,393
the

701
00:08:36,393 --> 00:08:36,727
propulsion is

702
00:08:36,727 --> 00:08:37,294
really

703
00:08:37,294 --> 00:08:39,290
the key thing

704
00:08:39,290 --> 00:08:39,205
. And so

705
00:08:39,205 --> 00:08:39,463
we

706
00:08:39,463 --> 00:08:40,597
were to

707
00:08:40,597 --> 00:08:40,964
look

708
00:08:40,964 --> 00:08:41,365
at these

709
00:08:41,365 --> 00:08:41,932
things

710
00:08:41,932 --> 00:08:42,799
according to you

711
00:08:42,799 --> 00:08:43,266
guys in

712
00:08:43,266 --> 00:08:43,667
your

713
00:08:43,667 --> 00:08:45,502
resolution

714
00:08:45,502 --> 00:08:45,836
, uh, and

715
00:08:45,836 --> 00:08:46,270
so those

716
00:08:46,270 --> 00:08:47,805
are the

717
00:08:47,805 --> 00:08:48,338
, the options that we

718
00:08:48,338 --> 00:08:50,338
looked at

719
00:08:52,750 --> 00:08:52,676
. We

720
00:08:52,676 --> 00:08:53,876
were defined to

721
00:08:53,876 --> 00:08:54,778
be

722
00:08:54,778 --> 00:08:56,146
a nine-member group

723
00:08:56,146 --> 00:08:56,680
Good

724
00:08:56,680 --> 00:08:57,140
morning, Joe. My

725
00:08:57,140 --> 00:08:58,249
name is

726
00:08:58,249 --> 00:08:58,949
Sandy

727
00:08:58,949 --> 00:08:59,449
McKeon. Apologies for being

728
00:08:59,449 --> 00:09:00,784
late. No problem

729
00:09:00,784 --> 00:09:01,510
. Thank you

730
00:09:01,510 --> 00:09:01,885
. Um

731
00:09:01,885 --> 00:09:03,187
we

732
00:09:03,187 --> 00:09:03,520
just started

733
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,122
. Um

734
00:09:05,122 --> 00:09:06,290
and

735
00:09:06,290 --> 00:09:07,525
5 of

736
00:09:07,525 --> 00:09:08,259
the

737
00:09:08,259 --> 00:09:08,625
members were to be

738
00:09:08,625 --> 00:09:09,593
residents

739
00:09:09,593 --> 00:09:10,461
of

740
00:09:10,461 --> 00:09:11,862
Guaymas Island

741
00:09:11,862 --> 00:09:12,129
,

742
00:09:12,129 --> 00:09:12,396
and

743
00:09:12,396 --> 00:09:12,962
4

744
00:09:12,962 --> 00:09:14,665
representatives from

745
00:09:14,665 --> 00:09:16,634
Skagitt County

746
00:09:16,634 --> 00:09:17,468
, uh, not living

747
00:09:17,468 --> 00:09:19,270
on the island, although some of

748
00:09:19,270 --> 00:09:19,670
that's changed since

749
00:09:19,670 --> 00:09:20,371
since

750
00:09:20,371 --> 00:09:21,572
since, since the resolution

751
00:09:21,572 --> 00:09:22,439
was

752
00:09:22,439 --> 00:09:23,207
passed. Uh

753
00:09:23,207 --> 00:09:23,708
, but

754
00:09:23,708 --> 00:09:24,575
the four

755
00:09:24,575 --> 00:09:24,842
representatives are really

756
00:09:24,842 --> 00:09:25,642
to

757
00:09:25,642 --> 00:09:26,420
be

758
00:09:26,420 --> 00:09:26,344
focused

759
00:09:26,344 --> 00:09:27,440
on

760
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:27,979
more expertise in

761
00:09:27,979 --> 00:09:28,980
the

762
00:09:28,980 --> 00:09:30,515
maritime industry

763
00:09:30,515 --> 00:09:31,182
. Such

764
00:09:31,182 --> 00:09:32,350
things as in fact we

765
00:09:32,350 --> 00:09:33,217
did cover

766
00:09:33,217 --> 00:09:34,986
these things um

767
00:09:34,986 --> 00:09:35,519
. Operating a

768
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:37,210
vessel in these

769
00:09:37,210 --> 00:09:37,422
local

770
00:09:37,422 --> 00:09:38,890
waters

771
00:09:38,890 --> 00:09:39,123
.

772
00:09:39,123 --> 00:09:39,390
We

773
00:09:39,390 --> 00:09:39,791
have

774
00:09:39,791 --> 00:09:40,357
one

775
00:09:40,357 --> 00:09:41,893
member

776
00:09:41,893 --> 00:09:43,627
, Corey

777
00:09:43,627 --> 00:09:43,961
, who

778
00:09:43,961 --> 00:09:44,361
was the

779
00:09:44,361 --> 00:09:46,300
marine

780
00:09:46,300 --> 00:09:46,531
Delivery Service

781
00:09:46,531 --> 00:09:46,898
We know

782
00:09:46,898 --> 00:09:47,165
, we know

783
00:09:47,165 --> 00:09:47,932
him as

784
00:09:47,932 --> 00:09:48,366
what

785
00:09:48,366 --> 00:09:48,900
we'll get

786
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:50,501
into that in a

787
00:09:50,501 --> 00:09:51,169
moment

788
00:09:51,169 --> 00:09:52,770
the

789
00:09:52,770 --> 00:09:53,338
things you can read there

790
00:09:53,338 --> 00:09:54,500
,

791
00:09:54,500 --> 00:09:54,705
naval architecture, and

792
00:09:54,705 --> 00:09:55,473
then we

793
00:09:55,473 --> 00:09:55,839
had county membership

794
00:09:55,839 --> 00:09:56,307
. We've

795
00:09:56,307 --> 00:09:57,108
already said

796
00:09:57,108 --> 00:09:57,264
that here

797
00:09:57,264 --> 00:09:57,809
this

798
00:09:57,809 --> 00:09:58,760
morning, and we

799
00:09:58,760 --> 00:09:58,343
have

800
00:09:58,343 --> 00:09:58,810
some

801
00:09:58,810 --> 00:10:00,810
consultants

802
00:10:01,513 --> 00:10:02,347
. Uh

803
00:10:02,347 --> 00:10:03,782
and I

804
00:10:03,782 --> 00:10:04,349
just make

805
00:10:04,349 --> 00:10:04,649
it an aside, by the

806
00:10:04,649 --> 00:10:04,811
way

807
00:10:04,811 --> 00:10:05,150
, I

808
00:10:05,150 --> 00:10:06,170
thought

809
00:10:06,170 --> 00:10:06,418
the

810
00:10:06,418 --> 00:10:06,985
consultants did a

811
00:10:06,985 --> 00:10:08,253
terrific job. They

812
00:10:08,253 --> 00:10:08,919
work with us

813
00:10:08,919 --> 00:10:09,387
all the way through and

814
00:10:09,387 --> 00:10:09,888
really

815
00:10:09,888 --> 00:10:10,888
facilitated the

816
00:10:10,888 --> 00:10:11,289
whole

817
00:10:11,289 --> 00:10:11,823
thing. So

818
00:10:11,823 --> 00:10:12,291
it's really

819
00:10:12,291 --> 00:10:13,557
a compliment to

820
00:10:13,557 --> 00:10:14,225
you

821
00:10:14,225 --> 00:10:14,993
three because

822
00:10:14,993 --> 00:10:15,293
here at

823
00:10:15,293 --> 00:10:15,727
the time,

824
00:10:15,727 --> 00:10:16,528
I guess

825
00:10:16,528 --> 00:10:17,429
, but

826
00:10:17,429 --> 00:10:17,896
uh because you

827
00:10:17,896 --> 00:10:18,363
picked those

828
00:10:18,363 --> 00:10:18,830
consultants, I

829
00:10:18,830 --> 00:10:19,970
think you did

830
00:10:19,970 --> 00:10:19,531
an

831
00:10:19,531 --> 00:10:21,531
excellent job

832
00:10:26,505 --> 00:10:26,771
.

833
00:10:26,771 --> 00:10:28,771
See

834
00:10:28,907 --> 00:10:29,374
My, my

835
00:10:29,374 --> 00:10:29,541
way of thinking

836
00:10:29,541 --> 00:10:30,108
,

837
00:10:30,108 --> 00:10:31,410
these buttons work

838
00:10:31,410 --> 00:10:31,943
. Backwards,

839
00:10:31,943 --> 00:10:32,911
so I'll keep doing

840
00:10:32,911 --> 00:10:33,278
that

841
00:10:33,278 --> 00:10:33,678
, I'm

842
00:10:33,678 --> 00:10:33,879
sure

843
00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:34,312
. Um

844
00:10:34,312 --> 00:10:35,180
, so here

845
00:10:35,180 --> 00:10:35,614
are the

846
00:10:35,614 --> 00:10:35,847
members of

847
00:10:35,847 --> 00:10:36,181
the

848
00:10:36,181 --> 00:10:36,715
tag

849
00:10:36,715 --> 00:10:37,917
, uh, Paul

850
00:10:37,917 --> 00:10:38,617

naval architect

852
00:10:40,719 --> 00:10:41,119
uh Allan

853

as one of the

856
00:10:43,321 --> 00:10:44,121
GAMus members

857
00:10:44,121 --> 00:10:44,589
,

858
00:10:44,589 --> 00:10:45,190
Becca Fong

859
00:10:45,190 --> 00:10:45,757
, who

860
00:10:45,757 --> 00:10:46,724
you heard was

861
00:10:46,724 --> 00:10:47,250
on

862
00:10:47,250 --> 00:10:47,592
Zoom

863
00:10:47,592 --> 00:10:47,959
. Corey Jost

864
00:10:47,959 --> 00:10:48,861
, that was

865
00:10:48,861 --> 00:10:49,261
,

866
00:10:49,261 --> 00:10:51,261
that's the

867
00:10:51,496 --> 00:10:51,830
uh San

868
00:10:51,830 --> 00:10:51,997
Juan

869
00:10:51,997 --> 00:10:52,363
Marine

870
00:10:52,363 --> 00:10:53,832
Freight

871
00:10:53,832 --> 00:10:55,800
. Whose

872
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:56,340
runs

873
00:10:56,340 --> 00:10:56,468
a

874
00:10:56,468 --> 00:10:56,835
barge on

875
00:10:56,835 --> 00:10:58,137
the on

876
00:10:58,137 --> 00:10:58,437
these waters

877
00:10:58,437 --> 00:10:58,637
. And

878
00:10:58,637 --> 00:10:59,370
he's

879
00:10:59,370 --> 00:11:00,405
sort of a

880
00:11:00,405 --> 00:11:00,575
, a savior to us

881
00:11:00,575 --> 00:11:01,106
on

882
00:11:01,106 --> 00:11:02,308
Glamis Island. You

883
00:11:02,308 --> 00:11:03,208
probably

884
00:11:03,208 --> 00:11:03,441
know that when the ferry

885
00:11:03,441 --> 00:11:04,677
has

886
00:11:04,677 --> 00:11:05,177
problems, he's

887
00:11:05,177 --> 00:11:05,347
the guy

888
00:11:05,347 --> 00:11:06,440
at

889
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:06,845
midnight, it doesn't matter

890
00:11:06,845 --> 00:11:07,446
. He

891
00:11:07,446 --> 00:11:07,779
gets us

892
00:11:07,779 --> 00:11:08,470
off that

893
00:11:08,470 --> 00:11:08,347
island

894
00:11:08,347 --> 00:11:08,614
and

895
00:11:08,614 --> 00:11:09,615
back

896
00:11:09,615 --> 00:11:09,786
, so he's kind of a hero

897
00:11:09,786 --> 00:11:10,150
to

898
00:11:10,150 --> 00:11:11,584
us

899
00:11:11,584 --> 00:11:12,384
. Um

900
00:11:12,384 --> 00:11:13,652
myself

901
00:11:13,652 --> 00:11:14,119
, my

902
00:11:14,119 --> 00:11:14,486
background

903
00:11:14,486 --> 00:11:16,486
was, is

904
00:11:16,588 --> 00:11:16,955
, management

905
00:11:16,955 --> 00:11:17,289
consulting

906
00:11:17,289 --> 00:11:18,424
and

907
00:11:18,424 --> 00:11:18,691
project management

908
00:11:18,691 --> 00:11:18,862
which

909
00:11:18,862 --> 00:11:19,124
is

910
00:11:19,124 --> 00:11:20,192
kind

911
00:11:20,192 --> 00:11:20,758
of

912
00:11:20,758 --> 00:11:21,159
why I think I became

913
00:11:21,159 --> 00:11:22,828
the chair

914
00:11:22,828 --> 00:11:23,329
. I

915
00:11:23,329 --> 00:11:23,729
didn't have the

916
00:11:23,729 --> 00:11:24,596
expertise

917
00:11:24,596 --> 00:11:24,963
the

918
00:11:24,963 --> 00:11:25,164
rest

919
00:11:25,164 --> 00:11:27,164
did

920
00:11:27,933 --> 00:11:28,267
. Uh Ryan

921
00:11:28,267 --> 00:11:29,502
Monahan

922
00:11:29,502 --> 00:11:29,678
, who's here with us

923
00:11:29,678 --> 00:11:29,969
,

924
00:11:29,969 --> 00:11:30,536
who works

925
00:11:30,536 --> 00:11:31,370
for PACar and

926
00:11:31,370 --> 00:11:31,671
has

927
00:11:31,671 --> 00:11:32,604
worked

928
00:11:32,604 --> 00:11:33,806
specifically

929
00:11:33,806 --> 00:11:34,373
on

930
00:11:34,373 --> 00:11:34,907
doing

931
00:11:34,907 --> 00:11:36,108
electrification of

932
00:11:36,108 --> 00:11:36,409
power

933
00:11:36,409 --> 00:11:36,742
trains

934
00:11:36,742 --> 00:11:37,209
on

935
00:11:37,209 --> 00:11:38,411
large vehicles, so

936
00:11:38,411 --> 00:11:38,677
a

937
00:11:38,677 --> 00:11:39,144
great

938
00:11:39,144 --> 00:11:39,545
big truck and

939
00:11:39,545 --> 00:11:40,379
a ferry are

940
00:11:40,379 --> 00:11:41,113
not

941
00:11:41,113 --> 00:11:41,447
so different from each other

942
00:11:41,447 --> 00:11:41,680
.

943
00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:43,680
Um

944
00:11:45,251 --> 00:11:45,985
Adam Paul, who

945
00:11:45,985 --> 00:11:47,253
is

946
00:11:47,253 --> 00:11:47,887
in this

947
00:11:47,887 --> 00:11:50,287
area and builds boats

948
00:11:52,125 --> 00:11:52,492
. Jonah

949
00:11:52,492 --> 00:11:53,159
Patrick

950
00:11:53,159 --> 00:11:53,959
, who's baby with us

951
00:11:53,959 --> 00:11:54,861
on

952
00:11:54,861 --> 00:11:56,361
Zoom, as I said before, he's

953
00:11:56,361 --> 00:11:57,362
a

954
00:11:57,362 --> 00:11:58,398
tugboat captain, and Tom

955
00:11:58,398 --> 00:11:59,132
Fouts,

956
00:11:59,132 --> 00:11:59,305
who lives on the island

957
00:11:59,305 --> 00:11:59,665
, who

958
00:11:59,665 --> 00:12:01,000
has a lot

959
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:01,199
of experience in

960
00:12:01,199 --> 00:12:01,568
the

961
00:12:01,568 --> 00:12:02,200
maritime

962
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,370
and as

963
00:12:04,370 --> 00:12:06,370
aeronomical

964
00:12:06,138 --> 00:12:07,707
industries in

965
00:12:07,707 --> 00:12:08,107
terms

966
00:12:08,107 --> 00:12:08,741
of large

967
00:12:08,741 --> 00:12:10,810
machinery and engines and

968
00:12:10,810 --> 00:12:11,144
diesels and how all

969
00:12:11,144 --> 00:12:13,144
that works

970
00:12:16,882 --> 00:12:17,417
.

971
00:12:17,417 --> 00:12:17,784
So this is a

972
00:12:17,784 --> 00:12:18,884
very busy

973
00:12:18,884 --> 00:12:19,285
slide

974
00:12:19,285 --> 00:12:19,753
.

975
00:12:19,753 --> 00:12:20,353
I'm not

976
00:12:20,353 --> 00:12:21,200
, I'm not expecting

977
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:21,454
you

978
00:12:21,454 --> 00:12:21,954
to read

979
00:12:21,954 --> 00:12:22,288
this particularly,

980
00:12:22,288 --> 00:12:23,656
although

981
00:12:23,656 --> 00:12:23,923
I highlighted some of

982
00:12:23,923 --> 00:12:24,257
the

983
00:12:24,257 --> 00:12:25,691
more

984
00:12:25,691 --> 00:12:26,293
important parts

985
00:12:26,293 --> 00:12:26,760
, um,

986
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,728
these in the

987
00:12:28,728 --> 00:12:29,950
next

988
00:12:29,950 --> 00:12:30,397
slide

989
00:12:30,397 --> 00:12:30,897
represent

990
00:12:30,897 --> 00:12:32,299
the

991
00:12:32,299 --> 00:12:32,765
6

992
00:12:32,765 --> 00:12:33,466
propulsion

993
00:12:33,466 --> 00:12:33,733
options that we looked

994
00:12:33,733 --> 00:12:35,135
at

995
00:12:35,135 --> 00:12:35,702
, ok

996
00:12:35,702 --> 00:12:36,350
?

997
00:12:36,350 --> 00:12:36,303
And

998
00:12:36,303 --> 00:12:37,337
one of

999
00:12:37,337 --> 00:12:37,671
the first things

1000
00:12:37,671 --> 00:12:37,971
that we

1001
00:12:37,971 --> 00:12:39,473
uh

1002
00:12:39,473 --> 00:12:41,473
um

1003
00:12:42,441 --> 00:12:43,543
so to

1004
00:12:43,543 --> 00:12:43,944
get this

1005
00:12:43,944 --> 00:12:44,778
right here

1006
00:12:44,778 --> 00:12:46,446
. One of the first

1007
00:12:46,446 --> 00:12:47,470
things we had to deal

1008
00:12:47,470 --> 00:12:48,749
with was

1009
00:12:48,749 --> 00:12:49,249
the

1010
00:12:49,249 --> 00:12:50,417
terminology. When

1011
00:12:50,417 --> 00:12:51,618
you say

1012
00:12:51,618 --> 00:12:53,200
diesel hybrid

1013
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:53,387
Ron

1014
00:12:53,387 --> 00:12:53,754
, you might

1015
00:12:53,754 --> 00:12:55,121
think of

1016
00:12:55,121 --> 00:12:55,321
one thing, and

1017
00:12:55,321 --> 00:12:55,622
I might

1018
00:12:55,622 --> 00:12:57,357
think

1019
00:12:57,357 --> 00:12:57,958
of another

1020
00:12:57,958 --> 00:12:58,225
, and

1021
00:12:58,225 --> 00:12:58,525
Alan here

1022
00:12:58,525 --> 00:12:59,592
MAY

1023
00:12:59,592 --> 00:13:00,260
think of another

1024
00:13:00,260 --> 00:13:00,927
. It's, it

1025
00:13:00,927 --> 00:13:01,929
gets

1026
00:13:01,929 --> 00:13:02,429
confusing even to the

1027
00:13:02,429 --> 00:13:03,196
industry. If you

1028
00:13:03,196 --> 00:13:04,164
read

1029
00:13:04,164 --> 00:13:04,397
articles

1030
00:13:04,397 --> 00:13:04,898
or

1031
00:13:04,898 --> 00:13:05,499
hear

1032
00:13:05,499 --> 00:13:07,499
presentations

1033
00:13:07,634 --> 00:13:07,800
, um, you

1034
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,134
,

1035
00:13:08,134 --> 00:13:08,468
you

1036
00:13:08,468 --> 00:13:09,269
find out

1037
00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:09,503
after 5

1038
00:13:09,503 --> 00:13:09,870
minutes of

1039
00:13:09,870 --> 00:13:10,871
discussion

1040
00:13:10,871 --> 00:13:11,171
, you're talking

1041
00:13:11,171 --> 00:13:11,404
apples

1042
00:13:11,404 --> 00:13:11,771
and

1043
00:13:11,771 --> 00:13:12,806
oranges

1044
00:13:12,806 --> 00:13:12,966
. And we

1045
00:13:12,966 --> 00:13:13,574
, we

1046
00:13:13,574 --> 00:13:13,907
struggled with that for a

1047
00:13:13,907 --> 00:13:15,409
couple

1048
00:13:15,409 --> 00:13:16,276
of meetings

1049
00:13:16,276 --> 00:13:16,944
, uh, and

1050
00:13:16,944 --> 00:13:17,311
finally decides, you know

1051
00:13:17,311 --> 00:13:17,811
, we

1052
00:13:17,811 --> 00:13:18,178
really needed to

1053
00:13:18,178 --> 00:13:18,579
find this

1054
00:13:18,579 --> 00:13:19,880
clearly

1055
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:20,247
, and that's part of, I

1056
00:13:20,247 --> 00:13:20,748
think

1057
00:13:20,748 --> 00:13:22,483
, the value

1058
00:13:22,483 --> 00:13:22,750
of

1059
00:13:22,750 --> 00:13:23,851
these

1060
00:13:23,851 --> 00:13:24,552
, uh,

1061
00:13:24,552 --> 00:13:24,752
it's on two slides here

1062
00:13:24,752 --> 00:13:25,318
, but

1063
00:13:25,318 --> 00:13:26,420
you have it on one

1064
00:13:26,420 --> 00:13:26,720
page

1065
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:27,540
in

1066
00:13:27,540 --> 00:13:27,755
your

1067
00:13:27,755 --> 00:13:28,555
packet, and the reason

1068
00:13:28,555 --> 00:13:29,123
I

1069
00:13:29,123 --> 00:13:29,390
included that in

1070
00:13:29,390 --> 00:13:29,757
your

1071
00:13:29,757 --> 00:13:30,724
packet

1072
00:13:30,724 --> 00:13:31,580
is

1073
00:13:31,580 --> 00:13:31,759
not for

1074
00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:32,325
this presentation so

1075
00:13:32,325 --> 00:13:33,227
much, but as you

1076
00:13:33,227 --> 00:13:33,627
think

1077
00:13:33,627 --> 00:13:34,610
through

1078
00:13:34,610 --> 00:13:34,395
this

1079
00:13:34,395 --> 00:13:34,829
or read

1080
00:13:34,829 --> 00:13:35,896
the report

1081
00:13:35,896 --> 00:13:36,230
in

1082
00:13:36,230 --> 00:13:37,398
AUGUST

1083
00:13:37,398 --> 00:13:37,865
, um, you'll have

1084
00:13:37,865 --> 00:13:38,132
this

1085
00:13:38,132 --> 00:13:38,532
to

1086
00:13:38,532 --> 00:13:40,400
refer to

1087
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:40,768
. It's I

1088
00:13:40,768 --> 00:13:41,135
can't

1089
00:13:41,135 --> 00:13:41,602
stress

1090
00:13:41,602 --> 00:13:42,336
enough to keep

1091
00:13:42,336 --> 00:13:42,803
it

1092
00:13:42,803 --> 00:13:43,271
straight.

1093
00:13:43,271 --> 00:13:43,671
What you mean

1094
00:13:43,671 --> 00:13:44,872
by

1095
00:13:44,872 --> 00:13:45,239
plug-in hybrid

1096
00:13:45,239 --> 00:13:45,573
What

1097
00:13:45,573 --> 00:13:46,107
you

1098
00:13:46,107 --> 00:13:47,341
mean by

1099
00:13:47,341 --> 00:13:47,504
diesel hybrid

1100
00:13:47,504 --> 00:13:47,742
,

1101
00:13:47,742 --> 00:13:48,476
and

1102
00:13:48,476 --> 00:13:48,902
the industry has some of

1103
00:13:48,902 --> 00:13:50,677
the

1104
00:13:50,677 --> 00:13:51,440
same problem in

1105
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:51,745
terms of

1106
00:13:51,745 --> 00:13:52,346
keeping these

1107
00:13:52,346 --> 00:13:53,114
terms straight

1108
00:13:53,114 --> 00:13:53,548
.

1109
00:13:53,548 --> 00:13:54,480
Uh, we kind

1110
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:54,221
of settled on

1111
00:13:54,221 --> 00:13:54,915
these

1112
00:13:54,915 --> 00:13:55,716
a lot of it came out

1113
00:13:55,716 --> 00:13:56,384
of

1114
00:13:56,384 --> 00:13:56,818
Glaston's work. It's very

1115
00:13:56,818 --> 00:13:57,851
similar to

1116
00:13:57,851 --> 00:13:58,386
what

1117
00:13:58,386 --> 00:13:59,530
Glaston did and

1118
00:13:59,530 --> 00:14:00,888
also other

1119
00:14:00,888 --> 00:14:01,321
industry sources

1120
00:14:01,321 --> 00:14:03,321
. Uh

1121
00:14:07,761 --> 00:14:09,970
Now there's

1122
00:14:09,970 --> 00:14:09,597
cer

1123
00:14:09,597 --> 00:14:10,980
certain things

1124
00:14:10,980 --> 00:14:11,866
the

1125
00:14:11,866 --> 00:14:13,600
sort of common

1126
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:14,469
to all

1127
00:14:14,469 --> 00:14:14,769
of

1128
00:14:14,769 --> 00:14:16,237
these

1129
00:14:16,237 --> 00:14:17,272
and they're the kind of

1130
00:14:17,272 --> 00:14:18,206
key characteristics of

1131
00:14:18,206 --> 00:14:18,406
of

1132
00:14:18,406 --> 00:14:19,173
them

1133
00:14:19,173 --> 00:14:20,541
that that maybe you can't

1134
00:14:20,541 --> 00:14:20,875
keep

1135
00:14:20,875 --> 00:14:21,275
in top

1136
00:14:21,275 --> 00:14:21,609
of

1137
00:14:21,609 --> 00:14:21,976
mind

1138
00:14:21,976 --> 00:14:22,643
. And one

1139
00:14:22,643 --> 00:14:22,843
is

1140
00:14:22,843 --> 00:14:23,344
,

1141
00:14:23,344 --> 00:14:23,945
it's really only

1142
00:14:23,945 --> 00:14:24,979
two

1143
00:14:24,979 --> 00:14:25,447
practical

1144
00:14:25,447 --> 00:14:27,800
energy sources

1145
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:27,782
. So

1146
00:14:27,782 --> 00:14:28,183
you know,

1147
00:14:28,183 --> 00:14:29,517
the energy

1148
00:14:29,517 --> 00:14:30,218
has to come from

1149
00:14:30,218 --> 00:14:30,752
somewhere, right? It could be

1150
00:14:30,752 --> 00:14:31,753
compressed natural

1151
00:14:31,753 --> 00:14:32,530
gas. It

1152
00:14:32,530 --> 00:14:32,554
could

1153
00:14:32,554 --> 00:14:32,886
be

1154
00:14:32,886 --> 00:14:34,355
diesel

1155
00:14:34,355 --> 00:14:35,123
, but really the

1156
00:14:35,123 --> 00:14:35,991
only practical ones that

1157
00:14:35,991 --> 00:14:36,523
come

1158
00:14:36,523 --> 00:14:37,225
down to in terms

1159
00:14:37,225 --> 00:14:37,525
of here

1160
00:14:37,525 --> 00:14:39,394
in

1161
00:14:39,394 --> 00:14:39,828
Skagitt County would

1162
00:14:39,828 --> 00:14:40,996
be diesel

1163
00:14:40,996 --> 00:14:41,897
and electric

1164
00:14:41,897 --> 00:14:42,898
. There's

1165
00:14:42,898 --> 00:14:43,331
depressed

1166
00:14:43,331 --> 00:14:43,998
natural gas

1167
00:14:43,998 --> 00:14:44,179
. There's hydrogen

1168
00:14:44,179 --> 00:14:44,799
,

1169
00:14:44,799 --> 00:14:46,168
there's things like that

1170
00:14:46,168 --> 00:14:46,834
are

1171
00:14:46,834 --> 00:14:47,568
being used

1172
00:14:47,568 --> 00:14:47,903
, usually

1173
00:14:47,903 --> 00:14:48,370
not

1174
00:14:48,370 --> 00:14:49,237
very

1175
00:14:49,237 --> 00:14:49,905
commonly used in

1176
00:14:49,905 --> 00:14:50,103
the industry

1177
00:14:50,103 --> 00:14:50,317
,

1178
00:14:50,317 --> 00:14:50,805
but

1179
00:14:50,805 --> 00:14:51,173
we just one

1180
00:14:51,173 --> 00:14:51,573
of the

1181
00:14:51,573 --> 00:14:51,840
things

1182
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:52,730
that

1183
00:14:52,730 --> 00:14:52,607
we

1184
00:14:52,607 --> 00:14:53,141
can't

1185
00:14:53,141 --> 00:14:53,442
concluded

1186
00:14:53,442 --> 00:14:54,142
was

1187
00:14:54,142 --> 00:14:54,976
those things are just

1188
00:14:54,976 --> 00:14:55,443
not

1189
00:14:55,443 --> 00:14:56,770
practical for

1190
00:14:56,770 --> 00:14:56,678
the

1191
00:14:56,678 --> 00:14:57,212
foreseeable

1192
00:14:57,212 --> 00:14:57,746
future. They're

1193
00:14:57,746 --> 00:14:58,147
just not

1194
00:14:58,147 --> 00:14:58,914
available

1195
00:14:58,914 --> 00:15:00,470
in this area

1196
00:15:00,470 --> 00:15:00,223
. If

1197
00:15:00,223 --> 00:15:00,549
you

1198
00:15:00,549 --> 00:15:01,160
see the

1199
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:01,616
word

1200
00:15:01,616 --> 00:15:03,318
diesel in any of

1201
00:15:03,318 --> 00:15:04,252
these six

1202
00:15:04,252 --> 00:15:05,253
propulsion options

1203
00:15:05,253 --> 00:15:05,520
.

1204
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:05,787
That

1205
00:15:05,787 --> 00:15:06,870
means

1206
00:15:06,870 --> 00:15:06,855
diesel

1207
00:15:06,855 --> 00:15:07,856
is the source

1208
00:15:07,856 --> 00:15:08,223
of

1209
00:15:08,223 --> 00:15:08,857
the energy

1210
00:15:08,857 --> 00:15:09,892
that

1211
00:15:09,892 --> 00:15:10,292
is

1212
00:15:10,292 --> 00:15:10,450
diesel

1213
00:15:10,450 --> 00:15:10,893
is

1214
00:15:10,893 --> 00:15:11,260
pre, not

1215
00:15:11,260 --> 00:15:12,394
, not

1216
00:15:12,394 --> 00:15:12,661
100% usually

1217
00:15:12,661 --> 00:15:13,529
but

1218
00:15:13,529 --> 00:15:14,562
or often

1219
00:15:14,562 --> 00:15:15,130
, but

1220
00:15:15,130 --> 00:15:15,898
that's what's

1221
00:15:15,898 --> 00:15:16,398
driving the boat. That's where

1222
00:15:16,398 --> 00:15:17,432
the energy's

1223
00:15:17,432 --> 00:15:18,660
coming from diesel

1224
00:15:18,660 --> 00:15:18,833
If you see

1225
00:15:18,833 --> 00:15:19,134
the

1226
00:15:19,134 --> 00:15:19,468
word

1227
00:15:19,468 --> 00:15:20,169
hybrid,

1228
00:15:20,169 --> 00:15:21,270
that means there's a battery

1229
00:15:21,270 --> 00:15:21,737
in

1230
00:15:21,737 --> 00:15:23,305
there someplace

1231
00:15:23,305 --> 00:15:23,605
So

1232
00:15:23,605 --> 00:15:24,406
, uh

1233
00:15:24,406 --> 00:15:26,342
, that

1234
00:15:26,342 --> 00:15:26,809
helps to distinguish between

1235
00:15:26,809 --> 00:15:28,744
these things

1236
00:15:28,744 --> 00:15:30,479
. Most

1237
00:15:30,479 --> 00:15:30,713
of

1238
00:15:30,713 --> 00:15:31,279
the

1239
00:15:31,279 --> 00:15:32,647
options, even

1240
00:15:32,647 --> 00:15:33,820
if

1241
00:15:33,820 --> 00:15:35,820
they're diesel

1242
00:15:35,351 --> 00:15:35,651
often have generators

1243
00:15:35,651 --> 00:15:37,586
on

1244
00:15:37,586 --> 00:15:38,286
board

1245
00:15:38,286 --> 00:15:38,487
and that's

1246
00:15:38,487 --> 00:15:39,321
for

1247
00:15:39,321 --> 00:15:39,855
backup

1248
00:15:39,855 --> 00:15:40,155
reasons

1249
00:15:40,155 --> 00:15:40,623
and

1250
00:15:40,623 --> 00:15:41,723
but certainly uh

1251
00:15:41,723 --> 00:15:41,991
one

1252
00:15:41,991 --> 00:15:42,224
of

1253
00:15:42,224 --> 00:15:44,126
the

1254
00:15:44,126 --> 00:15:45,961
options that's

1255
00:15:45,961 --> 00:15:46,362
um let's

1256
00:15:46,362 --> 00:15:46,895
say,

1257
00:15:46,895 --> 00:15:48,297
this is one of the

1258
00:15:48,297 --> 00:15:48,464
slides

1259
00:15:48,464 --> 00:15:48,898
that

1260
00:15:48,898 --> 00:15:49,364
we had two

1261
00:15:49,364 --> 00:15:49,732
different pieces,

1262
00:15:49,732 --> 00:15:51,000
sets of

1263
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:51,433
software doing this and

1264
00:15:51,433 --> 00:15:51,834
they, they

1265
00:15:51,834 --> 00:15:52,534
didn't

1266
00:15:52,534 --> 00:15:53,135
quite

1267
00:15:53,135 --> 00:15:53,402
translate, so this

1268
00:15:53,402 --> 00:15:54,200
slide went

1269
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,871
off the edge here

1270
00:15:55,871 --> 00:15:56,204
, but

1271
00:15:56,204 --> 00:15:56,705
, um, in

1272
00:15:56,705 --> 00:15:57,440
the diesel

1273
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:57,974
hybrid

1274
00:15:57,974 --> 00:15:58,441
, for instance

1275
00:15:58,441 --> 00:16:00,441
um

1276
00:16:02,411 --> 00:16:02,812
, the diesel

1277
00:16:02,812 --> 00:16:04,812
is

1278
00:16:06,482 --> 00:16:06,782
providing the

1279
00:16:06,782 --> 00:16:08,782
energy

1280
00:16:08,784 --> 00:16:09,185
through a

1281
00:16:09,185 --> 00:16:09,452
generator and

1282
00:16:09,452 --> 00:16:11,452
the

1283
00:16:11,554 --> 00:16:11,854
electricity goes and drives

1284
00:16:11,854 --> 00:16:12,955
the

1285
00:16:12,955 --> 00:16:13,356
boat

1286
00:16:13,356 --> 00:16:13,922
through an

1287
00:16:13,922 --> 00:16:14,289
electric

1288
00:16:14,289 --> 00:16:15,425
motor

1289
00:16:15,425 --> 00:16:15,792
. So those

1290
00:16:15,792 --> 00:16:16,580
are the things

1291
00:16:16,580 --> 00:16:16,592
that

1292
00:16:16,592 --> 00:16:17,660
are highlighted, for

1293
00:16:17,660 --> 00:16:18,610
instance, a

1294
00:16:18,610 --> 00:16:18,528
plug-in

1295
00:16:18,528 --> 00:16:20,396
hybrid is

1296
00:16:20,396 --> 00:16:22,310
the power

1297
00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:22,598
is provided

1298
00:16:22,598 --> 00:16:22,832
. Through

1299
00:16:22,832 --> 00:16:24,832
an

1300
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:25,501
electric motor, and there's

1301
00:16:25,501 --> 00:16:26,469
a lot of

1302
00:16:26,469 --> 00:16:26,970
electricity

1303
00:16:26,970 --> 00:16:27,436
being used

1304
00:16:27,436 --> 00:16:28,972
and often is

1305
00:16:28,972 --> 00:16:29,272
the primary energy

1306
00:16:29,272 --> 00:16:29,939
source

1307
00:16:29,939 --> 00:16:31,939
. Others here

1308
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:35,910
say

1309
00:16:40,282 --> 00:16:40,850
diesel

1310
00:16:40,850 --> 00:16:41,330
mechanical, which is

1311
00:16:41,330 --> 00:16:41,351
the

1312
00:16:41,351 --> 00:16:42,685
definition

1313
00:16:42,685 --> 00:16:43,219
which is the way you

1314
00:16:43,219 --> 00:16:44,354
would describe

1315
00:16:44,354 --> 00:16:44,687
the

1316
00:16:44,687 --> 00:16:45,555
current

1317
00:16:45,555 --> 00:16:46,823
Weymouth ferry

1318
00:16:46,823 --> 00:16:47,123
, the

1319
00:16:47,123 --> 00:16:48,158
powers

1320
00:16:48,158 --> 00:16:48,825
provided mechanically to

1321
00:16:48,825 --> 00:16:49,192
the

1322
00:16:49,192 --> 00:16:50,930
propeller

1323
00:16:50,930 --> 00:16:51,861
. Solely by

1324
00:16:51,861 --> 00:16:52,295
diesel

1325
00:16:52,295 --> 00:16:52,662
engines, so

1326
00:16:52,662 --> 00:16:53,363
there's no

1327
00:16:53,363 --> 00:16:53,997
generator involved, although

1328
00:16:53,997 --> 00:16:54,331
there might be one

1329
00:16:54,331 --> 00:16:56,331
on board

1330
00:16:58,335 --> 00:16:58,702
.

1331
00:16:58,702 --> 00:17:00,702
This is

1332
00:17:00,970 --> 00:17:01,238
you know, too busy to

1333
00:17:01,238 --> 00:17:02,973
see

1334
00:17:02,973 --> 00:17:03,640
really here, but

1335
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:03,807
in

1336
00:17:03,807 --> 00:17:04,174
the

1337
00:17:04,174 --> 00:17:04,841
report when

1338
00:17:04,841 --> 00:17:05,308
you get it at the

1339
00:17:05,308 --> 00:17:05,642
end of

1340
00:17:05,642 --> 00:17:07,310
AUGUST

1341
00:17:07,310 --> 00:17:08,440
, we included, and

1342
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,145
most of this came from

1343
00:17:09,145 --> 00:17:09,613
Boston,

1344
00:17:09,613 --> 00:17:10,313
by the way, done

1345
00:17:10,313 --> 00:17:12,313
years ago

1346
00:17:12,516 --> 00:17:13,830
, uh,

1347
00:17:13,830 --> 00:17:13,950
a schematic of

1348
00:17:13,950 --> 00:17:14,114
each of

1349
00:17:14,114 --> 00:17:14,384
these

1350
00:17:14,384 --> 00:17:16,384
now

1351
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:17,220
. Just

1352
00:17:17,220 --> 00:17:18,388
reading

1353
00:17:18,388 --> 00:17:18,588
this

1354
00:17:18,588 --> 00:17:19,389
, say

1355
00:17:19,389 --> 00:17:20,891
it's kind of hard to keep in

1356
00:17:20,891 --> 00:17:21,191
mind and it's easy to

1357
00:17:21,191 --> 00:17:21,524
get

1358
00:17:21,524 --> 00:17:22,726
confused

1359
00:17:22,726 --> 00:17:24,726
, but it

1360
00:17:24,862 --> 00:17:25,195
the

1361
00:17:25,195 --> 00:17:25,863
graphic

1362
00:17:25,863 --> 00:17:26,263
here really helps with that. So

1363
00:17:26,263 --> 00:17:27,397
I encourage

1364
00:17:27,397 --> 00:17:27,631
you when you look

1365
00:17:27,631 --> 00:17:28,398
at

1366
00:17:28,398 --> 00:17:29,700
the report to look

1367
00:17:29,700 --> 00:17:29,860
at these

1368
00:17:29,860 --> 00:17:30,267
,

1369
00:17:30,267 --> 00:17:30,801
uh, a lot of

1370
00:17:30,801 --> 00:17:32,503
this makes sense

1371
00:17:32,503 --> 00:17:34,571
when you look at the

1372
00:17:34,571 --> 00:17:35,138
the

1373
00:17:35,138 --> 00:17:36,506
schematic. You can

1374
00:17:36,506 --> 00:17:37,740
see where

1375
00:17:37,740 --> 00:17:37,307
the generators

1376
00:17:37,307 --> 00:17:37,708
are

1377
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:38,642
, where they

1378
00:17:38,642 --> 00:17:39,750
feed into

1379
00:17:39,750 --> 00:17:39,576
In

1380
00:17:39,576 --> 00:17:41,144
this case, it's a

1381
00:17:41,144 --> 00:17:41,345
plug-in hybrid

1382
00:17:41,345 --> 00:17:41,845
. There's

1383
00:17:41,845 --> 00:17:43,845
electric motors

1384
00:17:48,485 --> 00:17:49,787
. So

1385
00:17:49,787 --> 00:17:49,972
in

1386
00:17:49,972 --> 00:17:50,721
your

1387
00:17:50,721 --> 00:17:51,989
resolution you asked us

1388
00:17:51,989 --> 00:17:52,623
to look

1389
00:17:52,623 --> 00:17:52,923
at

1390
00:17:52,923 --> 00:17:53,190
these

1391
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:53,691
6

1392
00:17:53,691 --> 00:17:55,250
propulsion options

1393
00:17:55,250 --> 00:17:55,626
.

1394
00:17:55,626 --> 00:17:57,428
Using these criteria

1395
00:17:57,428 --> 00:17:59,428
. And we

1396
00:18:00,264 --> 00:18:00,597
dropped a couple of them and

1397
00:18:00,597 --> 00:18:01,499
you'll

1398
00:18:01,499 --> 00:18:01,932
see why and we added

1399
00:18:01,932 --> 00:18:02,233
a

1400
00:18:02,233 --> 00:18:03,334
couple

1401
00:18:03,334 --> 00:18:03,667
, but

1402
00:18:03,667 --> 00:18:03,901
there are

1403
00:18:03,901 --> 00:18:04,167
in

1404
00:18:04,167 --> 00:18:05,603
the

1405
00:18:05,603 --> 00:18:05,803
end

1406
00:18:05,803 --> 00:18:06,504
9

1407
00:18:06,504 --> 00:18:08,504
evaluation criteria

1408
00:18:10,206 --> 00:18:10,974
. So

1409
00:18:10,974 --> 00:18:11,242
if you're trying to decide, I

1410
00:18:11,242 --> 00:18:12,743
mean

1411
00:18:12,743 --> 00:18:13,377
, basically our

1412
00:18:13,377 --> 00:18:14,444
task

1413
00:18:14,444 --> 00:18:14,612
was

1414
00:18:14,612 --> 00:18:14,879
of

1415
00:18:14,879 --> 00:18:16,879
those

1416
00:18:16,948 --> 00:18:17,447
6

1417
00:18:17,447 --> 00:18:17,948
propulsion options,

1418
00:18:17,948 --> 00:18:19,249
which one will

1419
00:18:19,249 --> 00:18:19,550
we recommend to

1420
00:18:19,550 --> 00:18:19,984
you

1421
00:18:19,984 --> 00:18:21,452
? Or perhaps

1422
00:18:21,452 --> 00:18:21,919
a

1423
00:18:21,919 --> 00:18:22,787
couple of

1424
00:18:22,787 --> 00:18:26,387
them perhaps if that made sense

1425
00:18:26,490 --> 00:18:26,690
which I think as we went

1426
00:18:26,690 --> 00:18:27,910
along

1427
00:18:27,910 --> 00:18:28,993
we decided

1428
00:18:28,993 --> 00:18:29,326
that we really need

1429
00:18:29,326 --> 00:18:30,228
to get

1430
00:18:30,228 --> 00:18:30,862
to

1431
00:18:30,862 --> 00:18:31,195
one

1432
00:18:31,195 --> 00:18:31,562
because handing

1433
00:18:31,562 --> 00:18:32,997
you two

1434
00:18:32,997 --> 00:18:33,430
different options

1435
00:18:33,430 --> 00:18:33,931
, just

1436
00:18:33,931 --> 00:18:35,300
you know

1437
00:18:35,300 --> 00:18:35,500
, passes the buck

1438
00:18:35,500 --> 00:18:36,000
to

1439
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,100
you. So that's

1440
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:37,367
our job

1441
00:18:37,367 --> 00:18:37,902
, so we

1442
00:18:37,902 --> 00:18:38,403
really

1443
00:18:38,403 --> 00:18:38,670
worked hard to

1444
00:18:38,670 --> 00:18:38,829
get

1445
00:18:38,829 --> 00:18:39,204
a

1446
00:18:39,204 --> 00:18:41,204
single option

1447
00:18:43,875 --> 00:18:44,142
. These

1448
00:18:44,142 --> 00:18:44,309
, the

1449
00:18:44,309 --> 00:18:44,743
first

1450
00:18:44,743 --> 00:18:46,110
thing we did

1451
00:18:46,110 --> 00:18:46,611
when we got to

1452
00:18:46,611 --> 00:18:47,312
this

1453
00:18:47,312 --> 00:18:48,346
evaluation phase

1454
00:18:48,346 --> 00:18:48,680
was to

1455
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:49,800
rank

1456
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,800
these 6

1457
00:18:51,483 --> 00:18:51,883
. 9

1458
00:18:51,883 --> 00:18:53,684
criteria

1459
00:18:53,684 --> 00:18:55,186
. That

1460
00:18:55,186 --> 00:18:55,720
we would use

1461
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:55,987
to evaluate the

1462
00:18:55,987 --> 00:18:57,922
6

1463
00:18:57,922 --> 00:18:58,489
propulsion options

1464
00:18:58,489 --> 00:18:58,757
. So these

1465
00:18:58,757 --> 00:18:59,791
are

1466
00:18:59,791 --> 00:19:00,324
in the

1467
00:19:00,324 --> 00:19:00,792
order that we came

1468
00:19:00,792 --> 00:19:01,793
to. We did a

1469
00:19:01,793 --> 00:19:02,940
little

1470
00:19:02,940 --> 00:19:02,394
exercise

1471
00:19:02,394 --> 00:19:02,794
where

1472
00:19:02,794 --> 00:19:03,327
we

1473
00:19:03,327 --> 00:19:04,763
all, uh

1474
00:19:04,763 --> 00:19:04,941
, through

1475
00:19:04,941 --> 00:19:05,230
a

1476
00:19:05,230 --> 00:19:07,230
process

1477
00:19:07,399 --> 00:19:08,700
prioritize these

1478
00:19:08,700 --> 00:19:09,340
9

1479
00:19:09,340 --> 00:19:09,567
options

1480
00:19:09,567 --> 00:19:10,869
, and this is the

1481
00:19:10,869 --> 00:19:11,102
the

1482
00:19:11,102 --> 00:19:11,403
,

1483
00:19:11,403 --> 00:19:11,769
the

1484
00:19:11,769 --> 00:19:13,400
, the

1485
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:13,271
groups

1486
00:19:13,271 --> 00:19:13,505
this

1487
00:19:13,505 --> 00:19:14,139
decision

1488
00:19:14,139 --> 00:19:14,473
of the importance of each one

1489
00:19:14,473 --> 00:19:15,974
of those

1490
00:19:15,974 --> 00:19:16,341
, so

1491
00:19:16,341 --> 00:19:16,608
capital

1492
00:19:16,608 --> 00:19:17,776
cost

1493
00:19:17,776 --> 00:19:18,176
was

1494
00:19:18,176 --> 00:19:20,145
number one

1495
00:19:20,145 --> 00:19:20,845
. The

1496
00:19:20,845 --> 00:19:21,113
maintenance

1497
00:19:21,113 --> 00:19:22,547
cost

1498
00:19:22,547 --> 00:19:22,714
, the liability, and I

1499
00:19:22,714 --> 00:19:23,515
just

1500
00:19:23,515 --> 00:19:24,616
point out one of these

1501
00:19:24,616 --> 00:19:25,284
things

1502
00:19:25,284 --> 00:19:25,550
there. In fact, this came from

1503
00:19:25,550 --> 00:19:26,718
Ryan

1504
00:19:26,718 --> 00:19:27,853
, I think

1505
00:19:27,853 --> 00:19:28,220
, uh, really

1506
00:19:28,220 --> 00:19:29,388
struck

1507
00:19:29,388 --> 00:19:29,988
me

1508
00:19:29,988 --> 00:19:30,422
is reliability

1509
00:19:30,422 --> 00:19:30,888
. The

1510
00:19:30,888 --> 00:19:31,357
ferry service

1511
00:19:31,357 --> 00:19:31,924
is

1512
00:19:31,924 --> 00:19:32,103
a lifeline

1513
00:19:32,103 --> 00:19:32,291
,

1514
00:19:32,291 --> 00:19:32,524
not

1515
00:19:32,524 --> 00:19:33,492
a

1516
00:19:33,492 --> 00:19:33,926
luxury

1517
00:19:33,926 --> 00:19:34,259
, and that's the

1518
00:19:34,259 --> 00:19:34,693
name of

1519
00:19:34,693 --> 00:19:35,894
the game on

1520
00:19:35,894 --> 00:19:36,527
Glamis

1521
00:19:36,527 --> 00:19:36,928
Island. I'm sure you've heard

1522
00:19:36,928 --> 00:19:38,630
that from

1523
00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:38,330
many people

1524
00:19:38,330 --> 00:19:38,630
from Guay

1525
00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:38,897
misses

1526
00:19:38,897 --> 00:19:40,265
. It's

1527
00:19:40,265 --> 00:19:41,133
how we get to the

1528
00:19:41,133 --> 00:19:42,701
doctor. It's how we see our

1529
00:19:42,701 --> 00:19:43,302
family. It's

1530
00:19:43,302 --> 00:19:43,535
it's

1531
00:19:43,535 --> 00:19:43,835
, uh, it's,

1532
00:19:43,835 --> 00:19:44,969
it's

1533
00:19:44,969 --> 00:19:45,270
like a member of the

1534
00:19:45,270 --> 00:19:45,738
family

1535
00:19:45,738 --> 00:19:46,872
, that fairy

1536
00:19:46,872 --> 00:19:47,139
hunt

1537
00:19:47,139 --> 00:19:47,706
,

1538
00:19:47,706 --> 00:19:48,400
everybody who lives on the

1539
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:48,273
island

1540
00:19:48,273 --> 00:19:49,475
, I

1541
00:19:49,475 --> 00:19:50,800
think, um

1542
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:50,208
so

1543
00:19:50,208 --> 00:19:50,509
you

1544
00:19:50,509 --> 00:19:51,443
could

1545
00:19:51,443 --> 00:19:52,440
read

1546
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:52,444
these

1547
00:19:52,444 --> 00:19:52,611
complexity

1548
00:19:52,611 --> 00:19:52,978
is

1549
00:19:52,978 --> 00:19:54,450
something

1550
00:19:54,450 --> 00:19:54,513
to

1551
00:19:54,513 --> 00:19:54,682
consider

1552
00:19:54,682 --> 00:19:54,980
.

1553
00:19:54,980 --> 00:19:55,881
Emissions

1554
00:19:55,881 --> 00:19:56,248
is

1555
00:19:56,248 --> 00:19:58,248
very

1556
00:19:58,417 --> 00:19:58,583
important

1557
00:19:58,583 --> 00:19:59,500
in

1558
00:19:59,500 --> 00:19:59,985
a sort of an

1559
00:19:59,985 --> 00:20:00,485
indirect way

1560
00:20:00,485 --> 00:20:01,153
. We

1561
00:20:01,153 --> 00:20:03,870
all would like to

1562
00:20:03,870 --> 00:20:03,355
help

1563
00:20:03,355 --> 00:20:03,956
with

1564
00:20:03,956 --> 00:20:04,990
emissions in the

1565
00:20:04,990 --> 00:20:05,290
world

1566
00:20:05,290 --> 00:20:05,458
, but

1567
00:20:05,458 --> 00:20:06,250
it

1568
00:20:06,250 --> 00:20:07,125
turns out, as I think

1569
00:20:07,125 --> 00:20:07,493
you well

1570
00:20:07,493 --> 00:20:08,930
know

1571
00:20:08,930 --> 00:20:08,661
, the

1572
00:20:08,661 --> 00:20:10,229
funders really

1573
00:20:10,229 --> 00:20:10,528
like

1574
00:20:10,528 --> 00:20:12,365
an

1575
00:20:12,365 --> 00:20:12,698
option that's cuts

1576
00:20:12,698 --> 00:20:14,333
back

1577
00:20:14,333 --> 00:20:14,966
emissions. I mean, just look

1578
00:20:14,966 --> 00:20:16,200
what's happening with

1579
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:16,502
the

1580
00:20:16,502 --> 00:20:17,300
Washington State

1581
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:17,303
ferry

1582
00:20:17,303 --> 00:20:18,871
systems

1583
00:20:18,871 --> 00:20:19,505
.

1584
00:20:19,505 --> 00:20:20,506
They're moving, trying

1585
00:20:20,506 --> 00:20:21,700
to

1586
00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:21,474
move

1587
00:20:21,474 --> 00:20:21,974
quickly to

1588
00:20:21,974 --> 00:20:23,800
electrify in

1589
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:23,676
order

1590
00:20:23,676 --> 00:20:25,111
to reduce emissions

1591
00:20:25,111 --> 00:20:25,274
. Uh

1592
00:20:25,274 --> 00:20:25,711
, so

1593
00:20:25,711 --> 00:20:26,245
that becomes a

1594
00:20:26,245 --> 00:20:27,780
very important

1595
00:20:27,780 --> 00:20:28,281
thing as much for

1596
00:20:28,281 --> 00:20:30,216
the

1597
00:20:30,216 --> 00:20:30,550
environment or as much for

1598
00:20:30,550 --> 00:20:31,117
the

1599
00:20:31,117 --> 00:20:31,951
funding of

1600
00:20:31,951 --> 00:20:32,485
the

1601
00:20:32,485 --> 00:20:33,190
project as it is

1602
00:20:33,190 --> 00:20:34,320
for the environment

1603
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:34,754
. The other

1604
00:20:34,754 --> 00:20:35,254
thing on

1605
00:20:35,254 --> 00:20:36,389
emissions are

1606
00:20:36,389 --> 00:20:37,230
the

1607
00:20:37,230 --> 00:20:37,457
newer engine, anything to

1608
00:20:37,457 --> 00:20:38,491
replace it

1609
00:20:38,491 --> 00:20:38,925
. The

1610
00:20:38,925 --> 00:20:39,491
standards are

1611
00:20:39,491 --> 00:20:39,959
dramatically different than

1612
00:20:39,959 --> 00:20:40,893
they were 40

1613
00:20:40,893 --> 00:20:41,160
years

1614
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:41,494
ago

1615
00:20:41,494 --> 00:20:42,328
. The

1616
00:20:42,328 --> 00:20:43,262
engines today

1617
00:20:43,262 --> 00:20:43,929
have much

1618
00:20:43,929 --> 00:20:44,329
less

1619
00:20:44,329 --> 00:20:45,365
emissions

1620
00:20:45,365 --> 00:20:45,698
. But

1621
00:20:45,698 --> 00:20:46,432
from the, I

1622
00:20:46,432 --> 00:20:47,767
think the funding you've

1623
00:20:47,767 --> 00:20:48,134
had

1624
00:20:48,134 --> 00:20:50,103
already

1625
00:20:50,103 --> 00:20:50,261
, uh, and I what I

1626
00:20:50,261 --> 00:20:50,937
can

1627
00:20:50,937 --> 00:20:51,970
tell it's going to be that

1628
00:20:51,970 --> 00:20:52,238
way

1629
00:20:52,238 --> 00:20:52,639
for

1630
00:20:52,639 --> 00:20:53,390
at

1631
00:20:53,390 --> 00:20:54,541
least several

1632
00:20:54,541 --> 00:20:54,841
more

1633
00:20:54,841 --> 00:20:55,475
years

1634
00:20:55,475 --> 00:20:56,476
That's a, that's a hot

1635
00:20:56,476 --> 00:20:57,209
button

1636
00:20:57,209 --> 00:20:57,877
with the funders. They're still

1637
00:20:57,877 --> 00:20:58,244
going to want to see that. I

1638
00:20:58,244 --> 00:20:59,120
think one

1639
00:20:59,120 --> 00:20:59,181
of their

1640
00:20:59,181 --> 00:20:59,545
first

1641
00:20:59,545 --> 00:21:00,113
questions

1642
00:21:00,113 --> 00:21:00,947
would be, how do

1643
00:21:00,947 --> 00:21:01,614
you

1644
00:21:01,614 --> 00:21:01,948
help with admissions

1645
00:21:01,948 --> 00:21:02,315
with this

1646
00:21:02,315 --> 00:21:04,315
project

1647
00:21:11,900 --> 00:21:13,900
? So

1648
00:21:13,460 --> 00:21:14,961
we have

1649
00:21:14,961 --> 00:21:15,362
9

1650
00:21:15,362 --> 00:21:15,595
criteria

1651
00:21:15,595 --> 00:21:16,162
to

1652
00:21:16,162 --> 00:21:17,564
evaluate 6 options

1653
00:21:17,564 --> 00:21:17,797
. So how

1654
00:21:17,797 --> 00:21:19,980
do

1655
00:21:19,980 --> 00:21:19,599
we go

1656
00:21:19,599 --> 00:21:21,599
about doing that

1657
00:21:21,601 --> 00:21:21,868
? And

1658
00:21:21,868 --> 00:21:23,868
the

1659
00:21:24,337 --> 00:21:24,770
consultants really helped

1660
00:21:24,770 --> 00:21:26,173
us here in

1661
00:21:26,173 --> 00:21:26,907
many ways, but here

1662
00:21:26,907 --> 00:21:28,141
in particular. We were

1663
00:21:28,141 --> 00:21:28,307
kind

1664
00:21:28,307 --> 00:21:28,975
of

1665
00:21:28,975 --> 00:21:29,242
like, how do we put our

1666
00:21:29,242 --> 00:21:31,440
minds

1667
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:31,211
around applying these

1668
00:21:31,211 --> 00:21:31,544
9

1669
00:21:31,544 --> 00:21:32,612
criteria

1670
00:21:32,612 --> 00:21:33,380
, these

1671
00:21:33,380 --> 00:21:33,880
6 options

1672
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,348
. So

1673
00:21:35,348 --> 00:21:35,615
they came up with

1674
00:21:35,615 --> 00:21:35,983
a

1675
00:21:35,983 --> 00:21:36,316
scheme.

1676
00:21:36,316 --> 00:21:37,484
Again

1677
00:21:37,484 --> 00:21:37,951
, don't even begin to try

1678
00:21:37,951 --> 00:21:38,250
to read this

1679
00:21:38,250 --> 00:21:39,319
, but

1680
00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:39,720
the

1681
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:40,253
point is,

1682
00:21:40,253 --> 00:21:40,854
we went through

1683
00:21:40,854 --> 00:21:42,155
a

1684
00:21:42,155 --> 00:21:42,522
process

1685
00:21:42,522 --> 00:21:43,489
where

1686
00:21:43,489 --> 00:21:44,191
vertically

1687
00:21:44,191 --> 00:21:44,490
there is

1688
00:21:44,490 --> 00:21:45,910
the

1689
00:21:45,910 --> 00:21:45,425
9

1690
00:21:45,425 --> 00:21:46,326
criteria

1691
00:21:46,326 --> 00:21:46,760
, and we had

1692
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:47,361
a sheet

1693
00:21:47,361 --> 00:21:47,761
like this for

1694
00:21:47,761 --> 00:21:48,280
each one of

1695
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:48,495
the

1696
00:21:48,495 --> 00:21:49,129
6

1697
00:21:49,129 --> 00:21:49,630
options

1698
00:21:49,630 --> 00:21:49,929
, and each one

1699
00:21:49,929 --> 00:21:50,898
of the

1700
00:21:50,898 --> 00:21:51,198
tag members

1701
00:21:51,198 --> 00:21:51,832
made

1702
00:21:51,832 --> 00:21:52,132
an evaluation

1703
00:21:52,132 --> 00:21:52,799
and

1704
00:21:52,799 --> 00:21:53,333
put a

1705
00:21:53,333 --> 00:21:53,766
number on each

1706
00:21:53,766 --> 00:21:55,235
. For

1707
00:21:55,235 --> 00:21:56,300
each of

1708
00:21:56,300 --> 00:21:56,303
the criteria, something

1709
00:21:56,303 --> 00:21:57,471
let's

1710
00:21:57,471 --> 00:21:58,380
say

1711
00:21:58,380 --> 00:21:58,605
maintenance costs or

1712
00:21:58,605 --> 00:22:00,407
life cycle costs

1713
00:22:00,407 --> 00:22:01,800
. How important

1714
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:02,443
they thought that was

1715
00:22:02,443 --> 00:22:02,609
. And

1716
00:22:02,609 --> 00:22:03,770
then

1717
00:22:03,770 --> 00:22:04,611
we went through

1718
00:22:04,611 --> 00:22:04,878
a process where

1719
00:22:04,878 --> 00:22:06,878
we

1720
00:22:07,114 --> 00:22:07,381
crunch

1721
00:22:07,381 --> 00:22:07,948
these

1722
00:22:07,948 --> 00:22:08,482
numbers

1723
00:22:08,482 --> 00:22:09,583
together and

1724
00:22:09,583 --> 00:22:10,840
came

1725
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:10,985
up

1726
00:22:10,985 --> 00:22:11,719
with a

1727
00:22:11,719 --> 00:22:13,587
and

1728
00:22:13,587 --> 00:22:14,188
again, don't try to read this

1729
00:22:14,188 --> 00:22:15,488
particularly, but the

1730
00:22:15,488 --> 00:22:15,656
point

1731
00:22:15,656 --> 00:22:15,923
is

1732
00:22:15,923 --> 00:22:16,689
that

1733
00:22:16,689 --> 00:22:16,990
the group at the bottom

1734
00:22:16,990 --> 00:22:18,325
there

1735
00:22:18,325 --> 00:22:18,592
where it

1736
00:22:18,592 --> 00:22:19,293
says

1737
00:22:19,293 --> 00:22:20,795
final total

1738
00:22:20,795 --> 00:22:21,395
that's how at

1739
00:22:21,395 --> 00:22:22,263
that we were kind

1740
00:22:22,263 --> 00:22:22,929
of

1741
00:22:22,929 --> 00:22:24,565
halfway through our

1742
00:22:24,565 --> 00:22:25,650
our

1743
00:22:25,650 --> 00:22:25,566
uh

1744
00:22:25,566 --> 00:22:26,767
process when we

1745
00:22:26,767 --> 00:22:27,168
got here.

1746
00:22:27,168 --> 00:22:27,535
That's how

1747
00:22:27,535 --> 00:22:29,535
we ranked

1748
00:22:29,937 --> 00:22:30,212
the

1749
00:22:30,212 --> 00:22:30,404
six

1750
00:22:30,404 --> 00:22:31,571
options

1751
00:22:31,571 --> 00:22:32,206
as

1752
00:22:32,206 --> 00:22:33,407
a group

1753
00:22:33,407 --> 00:22:34,508
and with

1754
00:22:34,508 --> 00:22:35,776
everyone's input and

1755
00:22:35,776 --> 00:22:36,277
it didn't

1756
00:22:36,277 --> 00:22:36,911
stay this way, by

1757
00:22:36,911 --> 00:22:38,345
the way

1758
00:22:38,345 --> 00:22:39,213
, but

1759
00:22:39,213 --> 00:22:39,447
they're not in order there, but

1760
00:22:39,447 --> 00:22:40,781
if

1761
00:22:40,781 --> 00:22:41,820
you look

1762
00:22:41,820 --> 00:22:41,515
at the

1763
00:22:41,515 --> 00:22:42,283
highest

1764
00:22:42,283 --> 00:22:42,550
number

1765
00:22:42,550 --> 00:22:43,184
is

1766
00:22:43,184 --> 00:22:45,184
diesel hybrid

1767
00:22:45,286 --> 00:22:45,887
. And

1768
00:22:45,887 --> 00:22:46,220
interestingly, I just point

1769
00:22:46,220 --> 00:22:46,887
this out

1770
00:22:46,887 --> 00:22:47,355
, you'll

1771
00:22:47,355 --> 00:22:47,655
see

1772
00:22:47,655 --> 00:22:47,955
why

1773
00:22:47,955 --> 00:22:49,457
the

1774
00:22:49,457 --> 00:22:50,258
lowest number is

1775
00:22:50,258 --> 00:22:50,490
plug-in hybrid

1776
00:22:50,490 --> 00:22:51,525
at

1777
00:22:51,525 --> 00:22:51,959
that stage

1778
00:22:51,959 --> 00:22:52,226
. And

1779
00:22:52,226 --> 00:22:52,393
I'll

1780
00:22:52,393 --> 00:22:52,794
just

1781
00:22:52,794 --> 00:22:53,995
jump ahead a

1782
00:22:53,995 --> 00:22:54,462
little there, but

1783
00:22:54,462 --> 00:22:54,829
the reason

1784
00:22:54,829 --> 00:22:56,197
that

1785
00:22:56,197 --> 00:22:56,369
happened

1786
00:22:56,369 --> 00:22:56,664
is

1787
00:22:56,664 --> 00:22:57,980
plug-in

1788
00:22:57,980 --> 00:22:58,532
hybrid was

1789
00:22:58,532 --> 00:22:59,330
very

1790
00:22:59,330 --> 00:22:59,601
desirable

1791
00:22:59,601 --> 00:23:00,601
, but Rachel

1792
00:23:00,601 --> 00:23:01,568
already

1793
00:23:01,568 --> 00:23:02,370
mentioned that

1794
00:23:02,370 --> 00:23:02,970
charging arm

1795
00:23:02,970 --> 00:23:03,370
was

1796
00:23:03,370 --> 00:23:04,272
just

1797
00:23:04,272 --> 00:23:05,740
a showstopper

1798
00:23:05,740 --> 00:23:06,374
. It

1799
00:23:06,374 --> 00:23:06,773
was

1800
00:23:06,773 --> 00:23:07,808
expensive

1801
00:23:07,808 --> 00:23:08,376
. It cost

1802
00:23:08,376 --> 00:23:10,145
a lot of

1803
00:23:10,145 --> 00:23:10,678
required a lot

1804
00:23:10,678 --> 00:23:12,120
of change to the

1805
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:14,120
terminal area

1806
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:14,349
. Uh

1807
00:23:14,349 --> 00:23:14,749
, it's

1808
00:23:14,749 --> 00:23:15,160
only

1809
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,184
made

1810
00:23:16,184 --> 00:23:16,718
, as I

1811
00:23:16,718 --> 00:23:16,896
understand, still

1812
00:23:16,896 --> 00:23:17,385
,

1813
00:23:17,385 --> 00:23:18,720
Rachel, in one

1814
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:19,754
country, Germany

1815
00:23:19,754 --> 00:23:21,288
I believe, is that right

1816
00:23:21,288 --> 00:23:21,790
? And

1817
00:23:21,790 --> 00:23:23,900
really there's

1818
00:23:23,900 --> 00:23:23,558
no technical

1819
00:23:23,558 --> 00:23:23,858
people here to

1820
00:23:23,858 --> 00:23:25,260
service

1821
00:23:25,260 --> 00:23:25,527
it

1822
00:23:25,527 --> 00:23:27,527
. So

1823
00:23:28,630 --> 00:23:28,763
all those things as we

1824
00:23:28,763 --> 00:23:29,831
discussed these really

1825
00:23:29,831 --> 00:23:30,365
brought

1826
00:23:30,365 --> 00:23:30,632
the numbers

1827
00:23:30,632 --> 00:23:32,330
down

1828
00:23:32,330 --> 00:23:32,367
for plug-in

1829
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:34,367
hybrid

1830
00:23:34,936 --> 00:23:35,237
. But the

1831
00:23:35,237 --> 00:23:36,438
point

1832
00:23:36,438 --> 00:23:36,872
is we

1833
00:23:36,872 --> 00:23:37,739
went through

1834
00:23:37,739 --> 00:23:38,874
a

1835
00:23:38,874 --> 00:23:39,374
rigorous

1836
00:23:39,374 --> 00:23:39,641
objective process

1837
00:23:39,641 --> 00:23:40,875
to

1838
00:23:40,875 --> 00:23:41,330
try

1839
00:23:41,330 --> 00:23:41,476
to

1840
00:23:41,476 --> 00:23:42,143
evaluate the six

1841
00:23:42,143 --> 00:23:43,512
options using

1842
00:23:43,512 --> 00:23:44,279
the 9

1843
00:23:44,279 --> 00:23:44,713
criteria that you laid

1844
00:23:44,713 --> 00:23:45,847
out in

1845
00:23:45,847 --> 00:23:47,847
your resolution

1846
00:23:48,649 --> 00:23:50,850
. So

1847
00:23:50,850 --> 00:23:51,190
here

1848
00:23:51,190 --> 00:23:52,554
here, without

1849
00:23:52,554 --> 00:23:53,188
trying to read

1850
00:23:53,188 --> 00:23:53,522
all that

1851
00:23:53,522 --> 00:23:54,489
. Here's

1852
00:23:54,489 --> 00:23:54,689
the

1853
00:23:54,689 --> 00:23:55,390
, the

1854
00:23:55,390 --> 00:23:56,958
meaning of it. The

1855
00:23:56,958 --> 00:23:57,121
top

1856
00:23:57,121 --> 00:23:57,759
3

1857
00:23:57,759 --> 00:23:58,590
propulsions options, so we're

1858
00:23:58,590 --> 00:23:59,261
trying

1859
00:23:59,261 --> 00:23:59,695
to reduce the number of

1860
00:23:59,695 --> 00:24:00,395
things we're

1861
00:24:00,395 --> 00:24:01,530
looking at

1862
00:24:01,530 --> 00:24:02,498
was

1863
00:24:02,498 --> 00:24:02,798
mechanical diesel like we

1864
00:24:02,798 --> 00:24:03,980
have

1865
00:24:03,980 --> 00:24:04,800
now

1866
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:06,100
. Diesel hybrid

1867
00:24:06,100 --> 00:24:06,402
and series

1868
00:24:06,402 --> 00:24:06,835
,

1869
00:24:06,835 --> 00:24:08,470
which is a

1870
00:24:08,470 --> 00:24:08,770
diesel

1871
00:24:08,770 --> 00:24:09,400
is the

1872
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:09,168
, as

1873
00:24:09,168 --> 00:24:09,505
I

1874
00:24:09,505 --> 00:24:10,839
said before

1875
00:24:10,839 --> 00:24:11,239
, diesel means

1876
00:24:11,239 --> 00:24:11,774
that's the

1877
00:24:11,774 --> 00:24:12,641
energy source

1878
00:24:12,641 --> 00:24:13,750
, but

1879
00:24:13,750 --> 00:24:13,675
it

1880
00:24:13,675 --> 00:24:14,809
goes

1881
00:24:14,809 --> 00:24:15,177
through

1882
00:24:15,177 --> 00:24:15,444
generators

1883
00:24:15,444 --> 00:24:16,100
that

1884
00:24:16,100 --> 00:24:17,379
charge batteries

1885
00:24:17,379 --> 00:24:17,577
. The

1886
00:24:17,577 --> 00:24:17,946
word

1887
00:24:17,946 --> 00:24:18,247
hybrid means

1888
00:24:18,247 --> 00:24:19,348
there's

1889
00:24:19,348 --> 00:24:20,615
batteries

1890
00:24:20,615 --> 00:24:21,750
involved, that drives

1891
00:24:21,750 --> 00:24:22,551
electric

1892
00:24:22,551 --> 00:24:23,850
motors, but the energy is still

1893
00:24:23,850 --> 00:24:24,486
coming from diesel

1894
00:24:24,486 --> 00:24:25,200
and then

1895
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,388
diesel electric

1896
00:24:26,388 --> 00:24:26,688
, which is a

1897
00:24:26,688 --> 00:24:27,256
little

1898
00:24:27,256 --> 00:24:28,657
bit different

1899
00:24:28,657 --> 00:24:29,125
. So

1900
00:24:29,125 --> 00:24:29,458
we

1901
00:24:29,458 --> 00:24:30,660
rejected

1902
00:24:30,660 --> 00:24:31,260
3

1903
00:24:31,260 --> 00:24:31,560
of them, 3 of

1904
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:32,928
the of

1905
00:24:32,928 --> 00:24:33,462
the 6 and

1906
00:24:33,462 --> 00:24:33,763
and

1907
00:24:33,763 --> 00:24:35,300
these

1908
00:24:35,300 --> 00:24:35,498
the

1909
00:24:35,498 --> 00:24:35,865
remaining

1910
00:24:35,865 --> 00:24:36,198
three

1911
00:24:36,198 --> 00:24:37,700
were our

1912
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:38,401
top

1913
00:24:38,401 --> 00:24:39,669
options. Ones we

1914
00:24:39,669 --> 00:24:40,403
rejected was

1915
00:24:40,403 --> 00:24:40,936
plug-in hybrid for the reasons

1916
00:24:40,936 --> 00:24:42,204
I just mentioned

1917
00:24:42,204 --> 00:24:42,538
. Uh

1918
00:24:42,538 --> 00:24:44,372
, the

1919
00:24:44,372 --> 00:24:44,707
diesel hybrid

1920
00:24:44,707 --> 00:24:45,141
parallel, that's

1921
00:24:45,141 --> 00:24:46,976
where you

1922
00:24:46,976 --> 00:24:47,510
have

1923
00:24:47,510 --> 00:24:49,412
both diesel

1924
00:24:49,412 --> 00:24:49,678
it,

1925
00:24:49,678 --> 00:24:50,813
it

1926
00:24:50,813 --> 00:24:51,313
has two

1927
00:24:51,313 --> 00:24:51,473
drive shafts. It's

1928
00:24:51,473 --> 00:24:51,881
,

1929
00:24:51,881 --> 00:24:53,881
it's used

1930
00:24:54,150 --> 00:24:54,617
in maritime industry

1931
00:24:54,617 --> 00:24:54,951
in certain

1932
00:24:54,951 --> 00:24:55,351
particular

1933
00:24:55,351 --> 00:24:55,951
applications

1934
00:24:55,951 --> 00:24:56,219
, but especially

1935
00:24:56,219 --> 00:24:57,587
the

1936
00:24:57,587 --> 00:24:57,887
maritime

1937
00:24:57,887 --> 00:24:58,154
people

1938
00:24:58,154 --> 00:24:58,521
uh on the

1939
00:24:58,521 --> 00:24:59,956
tag who

1940
00:24:59,956 --> 00:25:00,390
who

1941
00:25:00,390 --> 00:25:00,856
work in that

1942
00:25:00,856 --> 00:25:02,580
industry for a

1943
00:25:02,580 --> 00:25:02,258
living

1944
00:25:02,258 --> 00:25:02,992
, thought

1945
00:25:02,992 --> 00:25:03,393
that that would be just a

1946
00:25:03,393 --> 00:25:04,427
ridiculous

1947
00:25:04,427 --> 00:25:04,827
way to

1948
00:25:04,827 --> 00:25:05,762
do it for a

1949
00:25:05,762 --> 00:25:06,829
ferry like this, so that was an

1950
00:25:06,829 --> 00:25:07,163
easy one

1951
00:25:07,163 --> 00:25:07,497
. And

1952
00:25:07,497 --> 00:25:08,698
the last

1953
00:25:08,698 --> 00:25:09,198
one was

1954
00:25:09,198 --> 00:25:09,598
the lummy

1955
00:25:09,598 --> 00:25:09,898
Fay design

1956
00:25:09,898 --> 00:25:11,367
, as you

1957
00:25:11,367 --> 00:25:11,700
well know, Lummy

1958
00:25:11,700 --> 00:25:12,435
is going

1959
00:25:12,435 --> 00:25:13,202
forward with also doing a

1960
00:25:13,202 --> 00:25:13,536
new

1961
00:25:13,536 --> 00:25:14,204
ferry

1962
00:25:14,204 --> 00:25:14,571
like this, and

1963
00:25:14,571 --> 00:25:15,805
they're

1964
00:25:15,805 --> 00:25:17,805
using a

1965
00:25:17,841 --> 00:25:18,508
a

1966
00:25:18,508 --> 00:25:19,410
hybrid

1967
00:25:19,410 --> 00:25:20,509
design and

1968
00:25:20,509 --> 00:25:21,770
so

1969
00:25:21,770 --> 00:25:22,679
the idea of

1970
00:25:22,679 --> 00:25:22,848
including the

1971
00:25:22,848 --> 00:25:23,279
you

1972
00:25:23,279 --> 00:25:24,748
included it in

1973
00:25:24,748 --> 00:25:25,548
the resolution

1974
00:25:25,548 --> 00:25:27,500
of making it one of the options

1975
00:25:27,500 --> 00:25:27,450
is maybe we

1976
00:25:27,450 --> 00:25:27,984
could piggyback

1977
00:25:27,984 --> 00:25:29,485
with them and save

1978
00:25:29,485 --> 00:25:30,120
money and

1979
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:30,487
effort and a lot

1980
00:25:30,487 --> 00:25:31,554
of things

1981
00:25:31,554 --> 00:25:31,888
by

1982
00:25:31,888 --> 00:25:33,888
somehow

1983
00:25:34,124 --> 00:25:34,624
um having a joint thing

1984
00:25:34,624 --> 00:25:36,326
or at least

1985
00:25:36,326 --> 00:25:36,826
working together,

1986
00:25:36,826 --> 00:25:38,294
but we, we

1987
00:25:38,294 --> 00:25:38,661
talked about that

1988
00:25:38,661 --> 00:25:39,195
quite a

1989
00:25:39,195 --> 00:25:39,529
bit because the

1990
00:25:39,529 --> 00:25:40,463
maritime

1991
00:25:40,463 --> 00:25:40,931
people on

1992
00:25:40,931 --> 00:25:42,931
the tag

1993
00:25:42,965 --> 00:25:43,300
could see how

1994
00:25:43,300 --> 00:25:43,567
much money could

1995
00:25:43,567 --> 00:25:45,402
be

1996
00:25:45,402 --> 00:25:45,902
saved by asking a boatyard

1997
00:25:45,902 --> 00:25:47,103
to build two boats

1998
00:25:47,103 --> 00:25:47,404
instead of

1999
00:25:47,404 --> 00:25:48,238
one

2000
00:25:48,238 --> 00:25:49,439
. And things like

2001
00:25:49,439 --> 00:25:50,207
that, but

2002
00:25:50,207 --> 00:25:51,708
we just felt that it was

2003
00:25:51,708 --> 00:25:52,142
too

2004
00:25:52,142 --> 00:25:52,608
complicated

2005
00:25:52,608 --> 00:25:53,430
. Their timetables

2006
00:25:53,430 --> 00:25:54,378
very different

2007
00:25:54,378 --> 00:25:54,600
than yours. Uh

2008
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:54,810
,

2009
00:25:54,810 --> 00:25:55,178
and

2010
00:25:55,178 --> 00:25:56,480
we thought

2011
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:57,247
the coordination

2012
00:25:57,247 --> 00:25:58,314
between the two counties would

2013
00:25:58,314 --> 00:25:59,449
be

2014
00:25:59,449 --> 00:26:00,150
almost impossible. You've

2015
00:26:00,150 --> 00:26:01,485
got your requirements

2016
00:26:01,485 --> 00:26:02,385
. They've

2017
00:26:02,385 --> 00:26:03,520
got theirs

2018
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:03,220
. They're

2019
00:26:03,220 --> 00:26:03,553
fairy

2020
00:26:03,553 --> 00:26:04,154
writers

2021
00:26:04,154 --> 00:26:04,555
have

2022
00:26:04,555 --> 00:26:05,188
certain

2023
00:26:05,188 --> 00:26:05,589
priorities

2024
00:26:05,589 --> 00:26:06,230
that

2025
00:26:06,230 --> 00:26:06,356
they want

2026
00:26:06,356 --> 00:26:06,556
. We have

2027
00:26:06,556 --> 00:26:06,857
ones

2028
00:26:06,857 --> 00:26:07,624
and

2029
00:26:07,624 --> 00:26:07,890
trying to get

2030
00:26:07,890 --> 00:26:08,625
that

2031
00:26:08,625 --> 00:26:09,326
all

2032
00:26:09,326 --> 00:26:09,827
coordinated would just

2033
00:26:09,827 --> 00:26:10,594
be too

2034
00:26:10,594 --> 00:26:12,594
complex, we thought

2035
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,000
. So

2036
00:26:21,438 --> 00:26:22,720
cause

2037
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:22,372
I'm gonna head there a little

2038
00:26:22,372 --> 00:26:24,372
bit

2039
00:26:25,810 --> 00:26:26,176
. So

2040
00:26:26,176 --> 00:26:26,543
we sat

2041
00:26:26,543 --> 00:26:27,544
there with

2042
00:26:27,544 --> 00:26:27,778
those

2043
00:26:27,778 --> 00:26:28,780
3

2044
00:26:28,780 --> 00:26:29,790
and we

2045
00:26:29,790 --> 00:26:29,380
started discussing

2046
00:26:29,380 --> 00:26:30,380
pros

2047
00:26:30,380 --> 00:26:30,948
and cons, which of the

2048
00:26:30,948 --> 00:26:31,982
three would be our

2049
00:26:31,982 --> 00:26:32,449
top

2050
00:26:32,449 --> 00:26:33,150
recommendation

2051
00:26:33,150 --> 00:26:34,685
. And

2052
00:26:34,685 --> 00:26:35,180
at

2053
00:26:35,180 --> 00:26:35,385
the end

2054
00:26:35,385 --> 00:26:37,120
of our

2055
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,560
MARCH meeting

2056
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:39,656
just

2057
00:26:39,656 --> 00:26:41,125
before we close

2058
00:26:41,125 --> 00:26:41,759
for

2059
00:26:41,759 --> 00:26:43,759
the day

2060
00:26:43,828 --> 00:26:44,362
, um

2061
00:26:44,362 --> 00:26:45,496
Brian sitting here

2062
00:26:45,496 --> 00:26:45,663
App

2063
00:26:45,663 --> 00:26:46,363
, who

2064
00:26:46,363 --> 00:26:46,663
again works a pack car and

2065
00:26:46,663 --> 00:26:48,199
works

2066
00:26:48,199 --> 00:26:49,000
with electrification as

2067
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,134
large vehicles. Made

2068
00:26:50,134 --> 00:26:50,434
a

2069
00:26:50,434 --> 00:26:50,835
comment

2070
00:26:50,835 --> 00:26:51,102
saying, you

2071
00:26:51,102 --> 00:26:52,370
know

2072
00:26:52,370 --> 00:26:52,970
, smaller

2073
00:26:52,970 --> 00:26:53,637
,

2074
00:26:53,637 --> 00:26:54,505
cheaper charging options

2075
00:26:54,505 --> 00:26:54,805
exist

2076
00:26:54,805 --> 00:26:55,306
today

2077
00:26:55,306 --> 00:26:55,606
. And when he

2078
00:26:55,606 --> 00:26:56,941
met by

2079
00:26:56,941 --> 00:26:57,541
today

2080
00:26:57,541 --> 00:26:57,774
was compared to

2081
00:26:57,774 --> 00:26:58,108
10

2082
00:26:58,108 --> 00:26:59,276
years ago

2083
00:26:59,276 --> 00:26:59,777
when

2084
00:26:59,777 --> 00:27:00,144
Gloucton did

2085
00:27:00,144 --> 00:27:00,578
its

2086
00:27:00,578 --> 00:27:01,811
preliminary

2087
00:27:01,811 --> 00:27:03,811
. Design

2088
00:27:03,881 --> 00:27:04,390
In

2089
00:27:04,390 --> 00:27:04,549
other

2090
00:27:04,549 --> 00:27:05,883
words, and that

2091
00:27:05,883 --> 00:27:06,470
, that we

2092
00:27:06,470 --> 00:27:06,584
all

2093
00:27:06,584 --> 00:27:08,190
walked out the door

2094
00:27:08,190 --> 00:27:08,177
. And

2095
00:27:08,177 --> 00:27:08,820
it

2096
00:27:08,820 --> 00:27:09,420
wasn't like, hey, I'm going to

2097
00:27:09,420 --> 00:27:10,354
announce this. It was

2098
00:27:10,354 --> 00:27:10,588
just

2099
00:27:10,588 --> 00:27:11,389
an

2100
00:27:11,389 --> 00:27:13,324
offhand comment he made

2101
00:27:13,324 --> 00:27:13,725
. But

2102
00:27:13,725 --> 00:27:14,859
some of us

2103
00:27:14,859 --> 00:27:15,360
started thinking

2104
00:27:15,360 --> 00:27:15,593
about that in

2105
00:27:15,593 --> 00:27:16,270
the

2106
00:27:16,270 --> 00:27:17,494
intervening

2107
00:27:17,494 --> 00:27:17,729
months before

2108
00:27:17,729 --> 00:27:19,530
the

2109
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:19,831
APRIL

2110
00:27:19,831 --> 00:27:20,198
meeting

2111
00:27:20,198 --> 00:27:20,565
so

2112
00:27:20,565 --> 00:27:22,000
much of

2113
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:22,800
, well

2114
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:23,134
, basically,

2115
00:27:23,134 --> 00:27:24,350
all of

2116
00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:24,669
the rejection

2117
00:27:24,669 --> 00:27:24,903
of

2118
00:27:24,903 --> 00:27:26,700
the

2119
00:27:26,700 --> 00:27:26,404
tag

2120
00:27:26,404 --> 00:27:27,138
of

2121
00:27:27,138 --> 00:27:29,138
an all-electric

2122
00:27:29,773 --> 00:27:30,542
. Ferry was

2123
00:27:30,542 --> 00:27:31,676
because of that charging arm

2124
00:27:31,676 --> 00:27:31,943
.

2125
00:27:31,943 --> 00:27:33,943
And

2126
00:27:34,780 --> 00:27:34,379
we hadn't really thought, I

2127
00:27:34,379 --> 00:27:35,480
guess

2128
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:35,947
, in

2129
00:27:35,947 --> 00:27:36,247
several years

2130
00:27:36,247 --> 00:27:36,548
. Is

2131
00:27:36,548 --> 00:27:37,615
that

2132
00:27:37,615 --> 00:27:38,249
technology still the

2133
00:27:38,249 --> 00:27:40,352
latest thing out there

2134
00:27:40,352 --> 00:27:41,753
? Well

2135
00:27:41,753 --> 00:27:42,587
so

2136
00:27:42,587 --> 00:27:42,821
we asked, actually, I

2137
00:27:42,821 --> 00:27:43,188
called

2138
00:27:43,188 --> 00:27:44,322
Ryan up

2139
00:27:44,322 --> 00:27:44,689
and asked him if he'd

2140
00:27:44,689 --> 00:27:45,523
give us a

2141
00:27:45,523 --> 00:27:46,591
quick presentation in

2142
00:27:46,591 --> 00:27:48,920
the

2143
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:48,793
APRIL meeting of what

2144
00:27:48,793 --> 00:27:49,493
these

2145
00:27:49,493 --> 00:27:51,620
new options were

2146
00:27:51,620 --> 00:27:51,222
. He came

2147
00:27:51,222 --> 00:27:51,563
back

2148
00:27:51,563 --> 00:27:52,163
with a

2149
00:27:52,163 --> 00:27:53,310
terrific presentation

2150
00:27:53,310 --> 00:27:53,531
,

2151
00:27:53,531 --> 00:27:53,765
and it was

2152
00:27:53,765 --> 00:27:54,132
a

2153
00:27:54,132 --> 00:27:56,100
key moment

2154
00:27:56,100 --> 00:27:57,402
. In

2155
00:27:57,402 --> 00:27:57,869
the

2156
00:27:57,869 --> 00:27:58,436
tags operation

2157
00:27:58,436 --> 00:27:58,904
because because

2158
00:27:58,904 --> 00:27:59,904
it gave us a

2159
00:27:59,904 --> 00:28:00,890
whole

2160
00:28:00,890 --> 00:28:00,505
another

2161
00:28:00,505 --> 00:28:02,505
perspective

2162
00:28:05,643 --> 00:28:07,643
. This is what

2163
00:28:09,470 --> 00:28:09,748
today's

2164
00:28:09,748 --> 00:28:10,115
charging options could

2165
00:28:10,115 --> 00:28:12,115
look like

2166
00:28:12,150 --> 00:28:13,885
. You don't see a big

2167
00:28:13,885 --> 00:28:15,687
swinging arm

2168
00:28:15,687 --> 00:28:15,853
. These

2169
00:28:15,853 --> 00:28:16,321
are

2170
00:28:16,321 --> 00:28:16,822
charging stations

2171
00:28:16,822 --> 00:28:17,923
, not

2172
00:28:17,923 --> 00:28:18,624
so

2173
00:28:18,624 --> 00:28:20,325
undididididididididiet's say

2174
00:28:20,325 --> 00:28:20,625
hybrid car

2175
00:28:20,625 --> 00:28:20,993
. Uh

2176
00:28:20,993 --> 00:28:22,161
, they're

2177
00:28:22,161 --> 00:28:22,661
about

2178
00:28:22,661 --> 00:28:23,294
the size of

2179
00:28:23,294 --> 00:28:23,795
two refrigerators.

2180
00:28:23,795 --> 00:28:24,563
Would that be

2181
00:28:24,563 --> 00:28:25,431
about right

2182
00:28:25,431 --> 00:28:27,431
? Um

2183
00:28:34,372 --> 00:28:36,372
the difference is

2184
00:28:36,775 --> 00:28:37,710
uh, actually

2185
00:28:37,710 --> 00:28:38,376
,

2186
00:28:38,376 --> 00:28:39,110
I mentioned this a little later

2187
00:28:39,110 --> 00:28:40,179
but uh, ok, I'll say it

2188
00:28:40,179 --> 00:28:40,679
oh I

2189
00:28:40,679 --> 00:28:43,790
see, here we go

2190
00:28:47,586 --> 00:28:49,288
. So

2191
00:28:49,288 --> 00:28:49,722
, today's

2192
00:28:49,722 --> 00:28:50,189
technology

2193
00:28:50,189 --> 00:28:51,991
of smaller

2194
00:28:51,991 --> 00:28:52,324
charging

2195
00:28:52,324 --> 00:28:54,160
stations

2196
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:54,560
eliminate

2197
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,270
those

2198
00:28:55,270 --> 00:28:56,729
negatives of

2199
00:28:56,729 --> 00:28:58,163
the char, the

2200
00:28:58,163 --> 00:29:00,163
, the

2201
00:29:01,167 --> 00:29:02,635
all-electric option

2202
00:29:02,635 --> 00:29:02,794
being

2203
00:29:02,794 --> 00:29:03,135
too

2204
00:29:03,135 --> 00:29:03,535
expensive

2205
00:29:03,535 --> 00:29:04,870
the

2206
00:29:04,870 --> 00:29:05,705
big

2207
00:29:05,705 --> 00:29:06,172
infrastructure that's required,

2208
00:29:06,172 --> 00:29:07,306
I think it was

2209
00:29:07,306 --> 00:29:07,463
about

2210
00:29:07,463 --> 00:29:07,907
$10

2211
00:29:07,907 --> 00:29:08,241
million if I

2212
00:29:08,241 --> 00:29:09,408
remember

2213
00:29:09,408 --> 00:29:09,708
right

2214
00:29:09,708 --> 00:29:10,544
, of

2215
00:29:10,544 --> 00:29:11,776
the original thing was just

2216
00:29:11,776 --> 00:29:12,545
for

2217
00:29:12,545 --> 00:29:13,120
that

2218
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,847
portion. Uh

2219
00:29:14,847 --> 00:29:15,281
I don't know

2220
00:29:15,281 --> 00:29:16,549
if we ever

2221
00:29:16,549 --> 00:29:16,983
solved that what do

2222
00:29:16,983 --> 00:29:18,751
we do with

2223
00:29:18,751 --> 00:29:19,552
handicapped parking

2224
00:29:19,552 --> 00:29:20,486
because of the changes to

2225
00:29:20,486 --> 00:29:21,220
the

2226
00:29:21,220 --> 00:29:21,688
terminal area that would

2227
00:29:21,688 --> 00:29:22,210
be

2228
00:29:22,210 --> 00:29:23,890
required

2229
00:29:23,890 --> 00:29:23,489
, things

2230
00:29:23,489 --> 00:29:24,900
like that

2231
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:26,900
Uh

2232
00:29:30,129 --> 00:29:30,630
So

2233
00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:31,197
this kind of

2234
00:29:31,197 --> 00:29:32,732
demonstrates

2235
00:29:32,732 --> 00:29:33,166
how

2236
00:29:33,166 --> 00:29:34,100
far technology

2237
00:29:34,100 --> 00:29:34,400
because it

2238
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:35,335
is a

2239
00:29:35,335 --> 00:29:37,237
fast moving

2240
00:29:37,237 --> 00:29:38,772
area, which

2241
00:29:38,772 --> 00:29:39,572
you

2242
00:29:39,572 --> 00:29:39,838
probably realize this

2243
00:29:39,838 --> 00:29:41,573
whole

2244
00:29:41,573 --> 00:29:42,410
electrification is not just in

2245
00:29:42,410 --> 00:29:43,143
ferry boats

2246
00:29:43,143 --> 00:29:43,910
or

2247
00:29:43,910 --> 00:29:44,210
cars or you know

2248
00:29:44,210 --> 00:29:44,511
it's

2249
00:29:44,511 --> 00:29:45,545
in so

2250
00:29:45,545 --> 00:29:45,879
many

2251
00:29:45,879 --> 00:29:46,145
things

2252
00:29:46,145 --> 00:29:46,746
today

2253
00:29:46,746 --> 00:29:47,313
,

2254
00:29:47,313 --> 00:29:48,581
battery technology

2255
00:29:48,581 --> 00:29:48,848
is

2256
00:29:48,848 --> 00:29:49,182
moving

2257
00:29:49,182 --> 00:29:50,117
quickly

2258
00:29:50,117 --> 00:29:50,483
, so it

2259
00:29:50,483 --> 00:29:50,917
shows you kind

2260
00:29:50,917 --> 00:29:51,351
of in

2261
00:29:51,351 --> 00:29:52,352
10 years

2262
00:29:52,352 --> 00:29:52,585
, about

2263
00:29:52,585 --> 00:29:53,190
10

2264
00:29:53,190 --> 00:29:53,185
years

2265
00:29:53,185 --> 00:29:53,586
,

2266
00:29:53,586 --> 00:29:54,453
how quickly

2267
00:29:54,453 --> 00:29:54,627
this can

2268
00:29:54,627 --> 00:29:55,880
change

2269
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:55,522
from that big

2270
00:29:55,522 --> 00:29:55,922
swinging arm to

2271
00:29:55,922 --> 00:29:57,157
something

2272
00:29:57,157 --> 00:29:57,624
like this

2273
00:29:57,624 --> 00:29:59,225
. Uh

2274
00:29:59,225 --> 00:29:59,959
and

2275
00:29:59,959 --> 00:30:00,627
there's probably going to be,

2276
00:30:00,627 --> 00:30:02,195
and that's a key thought

2277
00:30:02,195 --> 00:30:03,730
that

2278
00:30:03,730 --> 00:30:04,364
we in

2279
00:30:04,364 --> 00:30:06,299
our conclusions

2280
00:30:06,299 --> 00:30:06,499
is

2281
00:30:06,499 --> 00:30:06,932
that

2282
00:30:06,932 --> 00:30:08,702
that change

2283
00:30:08,702 --> 00:30:09,402
to the

2284
00:30:09,402 --> 00:30:09,703
technology

2285
00:30:09,703 --> 00:30:10,370
isn't

2286
00:30:10,370 --> 00:30:12,770
isn't isn't slowing down

2287
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:13,740
.

2288
00:30:13,740 --> 00:30:14,941
By some of the

2289
00:30:14,941 --> 00:30:15,342
members who are

2290
00:30:15,342 --> 00:30:15,742
working on

2291
00:30:15,742 --> 00:30:17,176
these things

2292
00:30:17,176 --> 00:30:18,110
, like

2293
00:30:18,110 --> 00:30:19,479
Paul Becker, for instance, who

2294
00:30:19,479 --> 00:30:19,880
works on trying

2295
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:20,347
to electrify

2296
00:30:20,347 --> 00:30:21,882
boats here in

2297
00:30:21,882 --> 00:30:22,482
this

2298
00:30:22,482 --> 00:30:24,482
area that

2299
00:30:24,518 --> 00:30:25,785
it's hard for them to

2300
00:30:25,785 --> 00:30:26,453
even

2301
00:30:26,453 --> 00:30:27,153
decide to do something right

2302
00:30:27,153 --> 00:30:28,322
now because they know

2303
00:30:28,322 --> 00:30:29,550
in a year

2304
00:30:29,550 --> 00:30:29,323
or two it's going to change so

2305
00:30:29,323 --> 00:30:30,757
much

2306
00:30:30,757 --> 00:30:30,990
. Now you

2307
00:30:30,990 --> 00:30:31,325
can

2308
00:30:31,325 --> 00:30:31,592
futureproof

2309
00:30:31,592 --> 00:30:33,590
that

2310
00:30:33,590 --> 00:30:35,590
, but still

2311
00:30:35,362 --> 00:30:35,963
, he brought

2312
00:30:35,963 --> 00:30:37,865
that perspective to us

2313
00:30:37,865 --> 00:30:38,232
. So at

2314
00:30:38,232 --> 00:30:39,599
least

2315
00:30:39,599 --> 00:30:40,100
talking

2316
00:30:40,100 --> 00:30:40,300
about

2317
00:30:40,300 --> 00:30:40,901
today's

2318
00:30:40,901 --> 00:30:41,768
technology. What this

2319
00:30:41,768 --> 00:30:42,403
, if this

2320
00:30:42,403 --> 00:30:44,804
is what it looks like

2321
00:30:44,804 --> 00:30:44,968
. It

2322
00:30:44,968 --> 00:30:45,239
would

2323
00:30:45,239 --> 00:30:47,207
only

2324
00:30:47,207 --> 00:30:49,900
supply

2325
00:30:49,900 --> 00:30:49,477
the

2326
00:30:49,477 --> 00:30:51,477
the electricity

2327
00:30:51,712 --> 00:30:53,147
that would be

2328
00:30:53,147 --> 00:30:53,614
used on

2329
00:30:53,614 --> 00:30:54,114
, let's

2330
00:30:54,114 --> 00:30:55,649
say a month or a

2331
00:30:55,649 --> 00:30:56,450
year's worth

2332
00:30:56,450 --> 00:30:57,417
of operation

2333
00:30:57,417 --> 00:30:57,817
would

2334
00:30:57,817 --> 00:30:58,152
likely only

2335
00:30:58,152 --> 00:30:58,719
be 50

2336
00:30:58,719 --> 00:31:00,287
or 75% of

2337
00:31:00,287 --> 00:31:00,654
the

2338
00:31:00,654 --> 00:31:01,880
total

2339
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:02,189
energy budget

2340
00:31:02,189 --> 00:31:02,523
. Uh

2341
00:31:02,523 --> 00:31:03,230
, if you try

2342
00:31:03,230 --> 00:31:04,725
to do what

2343
00:31:04,725 --> 00:31:05,426
Glaston did, which

2344
00:31:05,426 --> 00:31:06,560
works with a big swinging

2345
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:07,270
arm

2346
00:31:07,270 --> 00:31:07,628
,

2347
00:31:07,628 --> 00:31:09,563
Glaston's criteria was

2348
00:31:09,563 --> 00:31:09,726
like

2349
00:31:09,726 --> 00:31:09,997
95%

2350
00:31:09,997 --> 00:31:11,980
of in

2351
00:31:11,980 --> 00:31:11,399
order to

2352
00:31:11,399 --> 00:31:11,665
reduce

2353
00:31:11,665 --> 00:31:12,330
emissions

2354
00:31:12,330 --> 00:31:12,366
as much

2355
00:31:12,366 --> 00:31:13,467
as

2356
00:31:13,467 --> 00:31:13,801
possible

2357
00:31:13,801 --> 00:31:14,334
of the

2358
00:31:14,334 --> 00:31:15,200
energy coming

2359
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,700
from electric

2360
00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:16,804
. Uh

2361
00:31:16,804 --> 00:31:18,804
so

2362
00:31:19,941 --> 00:31:20,508
we

2363
00:31:20,508 --> 00:31:20,908
can't quite replace that

2364
00:31:20,908 --> 00:31:22,310
with these

2365
00:31:22,310 --> 00:31:22,677
two

2366
00:31:22,677 --> 00:31:22,944
refrigerators.

2367
00:31:22,944 --> 00:31:23,344
Uh

2368
00:31:23,344 --> 00:31:24,512
, but if we

2369
00:31:24,512 --> 00:31:24,761
brought

2370
00:31:24,761 --> 00:31:25,120
that

2371
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:25,346
criteria

2372
00:31:25,346 --> 00:31:25,646
from

2373
00:31:25,646 --> 00:31:26,848
95%, so

2374
00:31:26,848 --> 00:31:27,615
this

2375
00:31:27,615 --> 00:31:27,949
isn't inconsistent with

2376
00:31:27,949 --> 00:31:28,349
Glaston

2377
00:31:28,349 --> 00:31:29,784
by the way

2378
00:31:29,784 --> 00:31:30,217
. Glawson did the

2379
00:31:30,217 --> 00:31:31,519
right thing

2380
00:31:31,519 --> 00:31:31,677
at that time

2381
00:31:31,677 --> 00:31:32,530
that

2382
00:31:32,530 --> 00:31:32,553
was when

2383
00:31:32,553 --> 00:31:33,588
the objective was

2384
00:31:33,588 --> 00:31:34,254
to

2385
00:31:34,254 --> 00:31:34,755
do 95%, but if

2386
00:31:34,755 --> 00:31:36,560
you lower that

2387
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:36,824
objective

2388
00:31:36,824 --> 00:31:38,325
a bit, and then the

2389
00:31:38,325 --> 00:31:38,859
batteries get

2390
00:31:38,859 --> 00:31:39,293
smaller and so on

2391
00:31:39,293 --> 00:31:41,293
and so forth

2392
00:31:47,368 --> 00:31:47,702
. This

2393
00:31:47,702 --> 00:31:48,102
is what the

2394
00:31:48,102 --> 00:31:49,136
crew would

2395
00:31:49,136 --> 00:31:49,637
have

2396
00:31:49,637 --> 00:31:49,871
to do in

2397
00:31:49,871 --> 00:31:50,405
this

2398
00:31:50,405 --> 00:31:52,140
smaller charging

2399
00:31:52,140 --> 00:31:54,140
. Technology

2400
00:31:54,609 --> 00:31:56,110
and being the

2401
00:31:56,110 --> 00:31:56,911
commissioners,

2402
00:31:56,911 --> 00:31:57,312
you probably focus on a word

2403
00:31:57,312 --> 00:31:58,246
name cost

2404
00:31:58,246 --> 00:31:59,470
a lot

2405
00:31:59,470 --> 00:31:59,414
. You know, this

2406
00:31:59,414 --> 00:32:00,882
costs

2407
00:32:00,882 --> 00:32:01,215
like

2408
00:32:01,215 --> 00:32:01,583
10,000, not 10

2409
00:32:01,583 --> 00:32:03,417
million

2410
00:32:03,417 --> 00:32:05,530
. Uh

2411
00:32:05,530 --> 00:32:05,353
so

2412
00:32:05,353 --> 00:32:05,654
, and

2413
00:32:05,654 --> 00:32:06,121
you imagine

2414
00:32:06,121 --> 00:32:07,755
the boat

2415
00:32:07,755 --> 00:32:08,156
coming into

2416
00:32:08,156 --> 00:32:09,424
the

2417
00:32:09,424 --> 00:32:09,758
dock

2418
00:32:09,758 --> 00:32:10,570
after a

2419
00:32:10,570 --> 00:32:10,358
run

2420
00:32:10,358 --> 00:32:12,259
, is it

2421
00:32:12,259 --> 00:32:12,860
after it's

2422
00:32:12,860 --> 00:32:14,295
docked up, a

2423
00:32:14,295 --> 00:32:14,963
crew member would

2424
00:32:14,963 --> 00:32:15,496
just take this thing much like

2425
00:32:15,496 --> 00:32:16,264
he would do with

2426
00:32:16,264 --> 00:32:16,531
a

2427
00:32:16,531 --> 00:32:17,199
Prius and

2428
00:32:17,199 --> 00:32:17,532
plug it into the ferry, that'd

2429
00:32:17,532 --> 00:32:19,990
be it

2430
00:32:19,990 --> 00:32:21,990
. Uh

2431
00:32:30,645 --> 00:32:32,247
One thing

2432
00:32:32,247 --> 00:32:32,411
that

2433
00:32:32,411 --> 00:32:32,981
would

2434
00:32:32,981 --> 00:32:35,160
just be a, a, oh by

2435
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,718
the way

2436
00:32:36,718 --> 00:32:37,219
,

2437
00:32:37,219 --> 00:32:37,519
these charging

2438
00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:38,190
stations would

2439
00:32:38,190 --> 00:32:38,954
need to be, if

2440
00:32:38,954 --> 00:32:39,221
you think about

2441
00:32:39,221 --> 00:32:41,221
it

2442
00:32:41,324 --> 00:32:41,823
located near the boat

2443
00:32:41,823 --> 00:32:42,191
.

2444
00:32:42,191 --> 00:32:43,658
Because

2445
00:32:43,658 --> 00:32:44,258
you've got a cord here

2446
00:32:44,258 --> 00:32:44,659
that's got to be plugged in

2447
00:32:44,659 --> 00:32:45,961
again like

2448
00:32:45,961 --> 00:32:46,228
a Prius

2449
00:32:46,228 --> 00:32:46,562
. So that

2450
00:32:46,562 --> 00:32:48,630
means

2451
00:32:48,630 --> 00:32:48,864
these charging stations

2452
00:32:48,864 --> 00:32:49,198
would have to be mounted on the

2453
00:32:49,198 --> 00:32:50,399
ramp or

2454
00:32:50,399 --> 00:32:50,570
something like that

2455
00:32:50,570 --> 00:32:51,330
So

2456
00:32:51,330 --> 00:32:51,266
that's just

2457
00:32:51,266 --> 00:32:52,601
a

2458
00:32:52,601 --> 00:32:53,335
technical design

2459
00:32:53,335 --> 00:32:53,702
thing that would have to be

2460
00:32:53,702 --> 00:32:55,702
worked out

2461
00:32:57,606 --> 00:32:59,375
. This is

2462
00:32:59,375 --> 00:33:00,420
weird

2463
00:33:00,420 --> 00:33:00,442
looking slide graphs, but this

2464
00:33:00,442 --> 00:33:01,677
is probably

2465
00:33:01,677 --> 00:33:02,544
the most important

2466
00:33:02,544 --> 00:33:04,847
slide of the whole presentation

2467
00:33:04,847 --> 00:33:08,447
This is how it would work

2468
00:33:09,118 --> 00:33:11,118
as

2469
00:33:11,153 --> 00:33:11,419
you're probably well aware

2470
00:33:11,419 --> 00:33:13,419
, the

2471
00:33:13,756 --> 00:33:15,157
well, I'll just say

2472
00:33:15,157 --> 00:33:15,924
it this way

2473
00:33:15,924 --> 00:33:17,260
the energy required

2474
00:33:17,260 --> 00:33:17,793
to propel

2475
00:33:17,793 --> 00:33:18,261
that boat depends a lot on the

2476
00:33:18,261 --> 00:33:19,328
sea state. So

2477
00:33:19,328 --> 00:33:20,129
if

2478
00:33:20,129 --> 00:33:20,663
it's calm, it

2479
00:33:20,663 --> 00:33:22,970
has certain

2480
00:33:22,970 --> 00:33:22,398
requirements. If

2481
00:33:22,398 --> 00:33:23,898
it's

2482
00:33:23,898 --> 00:33:24,433
bumpy

2483
00:33:24,433 --> 00:33:24,734
and stormy and windy

2484
00:33:24,734 --> 00:33:26,350
and

2485
00:33:26,350 --> 00:33:26,302
so

2486
00:33:26,302 --> 00:33:26,602
on

2487
00:33:26,602 --> 00:33:27,300
. It it

2488
00:33:27,300 --> 00:33:27,303
requires more

2489
00:33:27,303 --> 00:33:28,336
energy

2490
00:33:28,336 --> 00:33:28,704
, and

2491
00:33:28,704 --> 00:33:29,438
that's why there

2492
00:33:29,438 --> 00:33:30,606
are two graphs here. So

2493
00:33:30,606 --> 00:33:31,374
just

2494
00:33:31,374 --> 00:33:33,376
look at the top one there

2495
00:33:33,376 --> 00:33:34,760
. The

2496
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:35,111
line that goes up is

2497
00:33:35,111 --> 00:33:35,878
when the

2498
00:33:35,878 --> 00:33:37,580
boat's at the dock being

2499
00:33:37,580 --> 00:33:38,140
charged. That red

2500
00:33:38,140 --> 00:33:39,549
line

2501
00:33:39,549 --> 00:33:39,915
is the

2502
00:33:39,915 --> 00:33:40,583
amount of

2503
00:33:40,583 --> 00:33:41,116
kilowatt hours

2504
00:33:41,116 --> 00:33:42,510
available in the

2505
00:33:42,510 --> 00:33:42,485
battery. So if

2506
00:33:42,485 --> 00:33:42,952
you look at

2507
00:33:42,952 --> 00:33:44,952
the top

2508
00:33:45,121 --> 00:33:45,420
, top

2509
00:33:45,420 --> 00:33:45,655
of

2510
00:33:45,655 --> 00:33:46,890
the

2511
00:33:46,890 --> 00:33:46,422
of the of

2512
00:33:46,422 --> 00:33:46,956
the

2513
00:33:46,956 --> 00:33:47,690
graph that's a

2514
00:33:47,690 --> 00:33:48,825
fully charged battery

2515
00:33:48,825 --> 00:33:49,358
, ok? So

2516
00:33:49,358 --> 00:33:49,858
as you run

2517
00:33:49,858 --> 00:33:51,828
the boat

2518
00:33:51,828 --> 00:33:53,195
the

2519
00:33:53,195 --> 00:33:53,963
down

2520
00:33:53,963 --> 00:33:54,230
lines are when the batteries

2521
00:33:54,230 --> 00:33:55,398
are

2522
00:33:55,398 --> 00:33:55,865
being

2523
00:33:55,865 --> 00:33:56,532
discharged to run the

2524
00:33:56,532 --> 00:33:58,468
boat across the channel

2525
00:33:58,468 --> 00:33:58,868
. When

2526
00:33:58,868 --> 00:34:00,360
it gets

2527
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:00,503
back to

2528
00:34:00,503 --> 00:34:00,904
the Anacored

2529
00:34:00,904 --> 00:34:02,238
stock, it

2530
00:34:02,238 --> 00:34:02,605
gets plugged in and

2531
00:34:02,605 --> 00:34:02,872
it goes

2532
00:34:02,872 --> 00:34:03,106
back

2533
00:34:03,106 --> 00:34:04,574
up

2534
00:34:04,574 --> 00:34:04,807
. And of course

2535
00:34:04,807 --> 00:34:05,475
at

2536
00:34:05,475 --> 00:34:07,643
the noon break, if you look

2537
00:34:07,643 --> 00:34:07,976
there 11:15, there's a

2538
00:34:07,976 --> 00:34:09,145
big jump

2539
00:34:09,145 --> 00:34:09,545
up because there's

2540
00:34:09,545 --> 00:34:09,719
an hour

2541
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:09,946
and

2542
00:34:09,946 --> 00:34:11,481
15

2543
00:34:11,481 --> 00:34:11,915
minutes there to

2544
00:34:11,915 --> 00:34:12,248
charge,

2545
00:34:12,248 --> 00:34:13,750
right

2546
00:34:13,750 --> 00:34:14,416
? So

2547
00:34:14,416 --> 00:34:15,652
that's

2548
00:34:15,652 --> 00:34:16,186
not so

2549
00:34:16,186 --> 00:34:16,920
different from from all

2550
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:17,921
electric if you think about it

2551
00:34:17,921 --> 00:34:18,321
.

2552
00:34:18,321 --> 00:34:20,560
Not really

2553
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:20,323
but

2554
00:34:20,323 --> 00:34:20,590
in

2555
00:34:20,590 --> 00:34:21,560
extreme

2556
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:22,492
conditions and

2557
00:34:22,492 --> 00:34:23,126
other situations

2558
00:34:23,126 --> 00:34:23,760
if you look toward the end of

2559
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:24,694
the day, the batteries

2560
00:34:24,694 --> 00:34:25,462
just

2561
00:34:25,462 --> 00:34:26,796
don't have enough. Right

2562
00:34:26,796 --> 00:34:27,297
? We go

2563
00:34:27,297 --> 00:34:29,297
below 0 there

2564
00:34:40,776 --> 00:34:41,377
. Well

2565
00:34:41,377 --> 00:34:43,377
this

2566
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:43,914
which

2567
00:34:43,914 --> 00:34:44,348
is

2568
00:34:44,348 --> 00:34:44,748
called plug-in

2569
00:34:44,748 --> 00:34:45,182
, we're

2570
00:34:45,182 --> 00:34:45,415
calling it

2571
00:34:45,415 --> 00:34:45,781
our

2572
00:34:45,781 --> 00:34:47,160
definitions

2573
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:47,784
,

2574
00:34:47,784 --> 00:34:48,518
plug-in hybrid. There are

2575
00:34:48,518 --> 00:34:50,918
generators on the boat

2576
00:34:51,522 --> 00:34:53,522
So

2577
00:34:56,426 --> 00:34:57,194
if

2578
00:34:57,194 --> 00:34:58,495
you're in that bottom, if it's

2579
00:34:58,495 --> 00:34:59,620
an

2580
00:34:59,620 --> 00:34:59,730
extreme weather situation or

2581
00:34:59,730 --> 00:35:00,831
some other situation

2582
00:35:00,831 --> 00:35:01,298
that

2583
00:35:01,298 --> 00:35:01,631
requires the

2584
00:35:01,631 --> 00:35:01,999
boat

2585
00:35:01,999 --> 00:35:03,000
to use

2586
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:03,567
more

2587
00:35:03,567 --> 00:35:05,235
energy than typical

2588
00:35:05,235 --> 00:35:05,469
. When

2589
00:35:05,469 --> 00:35:06,236
you

2590
00:35:06,236 --> 00:35:07,237
start getting to whatever

2591
00:35:07,237 --> 00:35:07,971
you

2592
00:35:07,971 --> 00:35:08,672
decide to be, that's getting

2593
00:35:08,672 --> 00:35:09,839
too close now, which could

2594
00:35:09,839 --> 00:35:10,307
be

2595
00:35:10,307 --> 00:35:10,908
zero as you

2596
00:35:10,908 --> 00:35:12,209
see the end of that

2597
00:35:12,209 --> 00:35:13,377
bottom

2598
00:35:13,377 --> 00:35:15,112
graph showing

2599
00:35:15,112 --> 00:35:15,378
. You fire

2600
00:35:15,378 --> 00:35:16,747
up

2601
00:35:16,747 --> 00:35:18,682
the generators

2602
00:35:18,682 --> 00:35:19,416
and most of

2603
00:35:19,416 --> 00:35:19,783
the discussion in the

2604
00:35:19,783 --> 00:35:21,783
tag from

2605
00:35:21,952 --> 00:35:22,987
knowledgeable people

2606
00:35:22,987 --> 00:35:23,721
of

2607
00:35:23,721 --> 00:35:24,880
electrification in the marine

2608
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,880
industry

2609
00:35:26,900 --> 00:35:26,490
. Recommend multiple

2610
00:35:26,490 --> 00:35:27,958
generators

2611
00:35:27,958 --> 00:35:28,225
. Small, each

2612
00:35:28,225 --> 00:35:28,659
one

2613
00:35:28,659 --> 00:35:30,659
being smaller

2614
00:35:30,661 --> 00:35:30,828
um, up to 4

2615
00:35:30,828 --> 00:35:31,295
even.

2616
00:35:31,295 --> 00:35:32,697
I don't know

2617
00:35:32,697 --> 00:35:33,531
if that makes

2618
00:35:33,531 --> 00:35:35,132
sense on the boat our size

2619
00:35:35,132 --> 00:35:35,533
, but

2620
00:35:35,533 --> 00:35:36,934
certainly 2

2621
00:35:36,934 --> 00:35:37,701
and there's a

2622
00:35:37,701 --> 00:35:39,700
couple of reasons for that

2623
00:35:39,700 --> 00:35:39,302
. One

2624
00:35:39,302 --> 00:35:39,937
is

2625
00:35:39,937 --> 00:35:41,438
generators

2626
00:35:41,438 --> 00:35:41,839
, as

2627
00:35:41,839 --> 00:35:42,506
most engines,

2628
00:35:42,506 --> 00:35:43,473
run most efficiently

2629
00:35:43,473 --> 00:35:43,740
at

2630
00:35:43,740 --> 00:35:44,341
a

2631
00:35:44,341 --> 00:35:44,575
certain rpm in

2632
00:35:44,575 --> 00:35:46,430
a

2633
00:35:46,430 --> 00:35:46,811
certain speed.

2634
00:35:46,811 --> 00:35:47,812
So if you're trying to vary

2635
00:35:47,812 --> 00:35:48,245
how

2636
00:35:48,245 --> 00:35:48,946
much your

2637
00:35:48,946 --> 00:35:49,480
output is depending

2638
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:50,414
by varying the

2639
00:35:50,414 --> 00:35:50,615
speed

2640
00:35:50,615 --> 00:35:51,480
, you're

2641
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:51,649
making that

2642
00:35:51,649 --> 00:35:52,490
generator

2643
00:35:52,490 --> 00:35:53,840
inefficient

2644
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:53,484
. If you have, let's

2645
00:35:53,484 --> 00:35:55,453
say

2646
00:35:55,453 --> 00:35:55,686
3 generators

2647
00:35:55,686 --> 00:35:56,120
, it's much

2648
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:56,454
better. You

2649
00:35:56,454 --> 00:35:56,687
can run

2650
00:35:56,687 --> 00:35:57,550
one

2651
00:35:57,550 --> 00:35:57,689
generator

2652
00:35:57,689 --> 00:35:58,589
at full speed. You

2653
00:35:58,589 --> 00:35:58,856
need more power. Run

2654
00:35:58,856 --> 00:35:59,123
the second

2655
00:35:59,123 --> 00:35:59,457
one

2656
00:35:59,457 --> 00:35:59,957
, maybe

2657
00:35:59,957 --> 00:36:00,258
do that

2658
00:36:00,258 --> 00:36:00,592
full

2659
00:36:00,592 --> 00:36:00,959
speed.

2660
00:36:00,959 --> 00:36:01,826
You see

2661
00:36:01,826 --> 00:36:02,126
what I'm saying

2662
00:36:02,126 --> 00:36:03,661
? So you

2663
00:36:03,661 --> 00:36:04,950
the generators

2664
00:36:04,950 --> 00:36:04,963
, you

2665
00:36:04,963 --> 00:36:05,862
vary

2666
00:36:05,862 --> 00:36:06,464
the

2667
00:36:06,464 --> 00:36:06,864
power

2668
00:36:06,864 --> 00:36:07,332
produced

2669
00:36:07,332 --> 00:36:07,798
by how

2670
00:36:07,798 --> 00:36:08,600
many

2671
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:09,000
generators

2672
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:09,968
are running

2673
00:36:09,968 --> 00:36:10,602
. Each

2674
00:36:10,602 --> 00:36:11,102
generator gets to run

2675
00:36:11,102 --> 00:36:13,102
near its

2676
00:36:13,103 --> 00:36:15,103
most efficient speed

2677
00:36:15,739 --> 00:36:17,739
. Also

2678
00:36:17,809 --> 00:36:18,276
this

2679
00:36:18,276 --> 00:36:19,410
provides a lot

2680
00:36:19,410 --> 00:36:19,778
of

2681
00:36:19,778 --> 00:36:20,445
redundancy,

2682
00:36:20,445 --> 00:36:20,678
certainly compared to the boat

2683
00:36:20,678 --> 00:36:21,746
we

2684
00:36:21,746 --> 00:36:22,314
have now

2685
00:36:22,314 --> 00:36:24,149
. If

2686
00:36:24,149 --> 00:36:24,349
I mean

2687
00:36:24,349 --> 00:36:25,150
, I don't

2688
00:36:25,150 --> 00:36:26,851
I should know this living on

2689
00:36:26,851 --> 00:36:27,418
the island for 15 years, but

2690
00:36:27,418 --> 00:36:29,418
uh

2691
00:36:29,521 --> 00:36:30,689
Rachel, if one of

2692
00:36:30,689 --> 00:36:30,855
the

2693
00:36:30,855 --> 00:36:31,189
engines

2694
00:36:31,189 --> 00:36:31,456
go out

2695
00:36:31,456 --> 00:36:31,790
. Is

2696
00:36:31,790 --> 00:36:33,580
the boat

2697
00:36:33,580 --> 00:36:33,692
out or can

2698
00:36:33,692 --> 00:36:35,227
you run on one engine

2699
00:36:35,227 --> 00:36:35,894
? Can't

2700
00:36:35,894 --> 00:36:36,394
run on one engine. No

2701
00:36:36,394 --> 00:36:37,661
. No

2702
00:36:37,661 --> 00:36:38,296
.

2703
00:36:38,296 --> 00:36:38,964
Physically you can, but Coast

2704
00:36:38,964 --> 00:36:39,931
Guard says you can't

2705
00:36:39,931 --> 00:36:40,865
. Isn't

2706
00:36:40,865 --> 00:36:41,166
that what it is? Yeah, I mean,

2707
00:36:41,166 --> 00:36:42,000
she

2708
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:42,700
can get

2709
00:36:42,700 --> 00:36:44,369
back to shore

2710
00:36:44,369 --> 00:36:44,803
, but

2711
00:36:44,803 --> 00:36:45,700
right

2712
00:36:45,700 --> 00:36:45,437
? Yeah

2713
00:36:45,437 --> 00:36:45,737
, if you

2714
00:36:45,737 --> 00:36:46,710
lose one

2715
00:36:46,710 --> 00:36:46,772
engine

2716
00:36:46,772 --> 00:36:47,439
, you can

2717
00:36:47,439 --> 00:36:48,773
no

2718
00:36:48,773 --> 00:36:49,240
longer

2719
00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:50,800
operate to

2720
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:50,575
carry

2721
00:36:50,575 --> 00:36:51,409
passengers

2722
00:36:51,409 --> 00:36:51,677
, um

2723
00:36:51,677 --> 00:36:52,440
you

2724
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:52,543
can move

2725
00:36:52,543 --> 00:36:52,715
the vessel if

2726
00:36:52,715 --> 00:36:53,450
you

2727
00:36:53,450 --> 00:36:53,511
needed to

2728
00:36:53,511 --> 00:36:54,613
to a

2729
00:36:54,613 --> 00:36:54,946
repair facility.

2730
00:36:54,946 --> 00:36:55,379
On Coast

2731
00:36:55,379 --> 00:36:55,681
Guard gives you

2732
00:36:55,681 --> 00:36:56,348
that

2733
00:36:56,348 --> 00:36:56,748
approval, but yeah

2734
00:36:56,748 --> 00:36:57,150
, we're

2735
00:36:57,150 --> 00:36:57,282
out

2736
00:36:57,282 --> 00:36:58,830
of

2737
00:36:58,830 --> 00:36:58,550
service

2738
00:36:58,550 --> 00:36:59,510
. So

2739
00:36:59,510 --> 00:36:59,585
we

2740
00:36:59,585 --> 00:37:00,152
really we're

2741
00:37:00,152 --> 00:37:00,852
not dead on

2742
00:37:00,852 --> 00:37:01,453
the water is what

2743
00:37:01,453 --> 00:37:01,954
I'm getting at

2744
00:37:01,954 --> 00:37:02,354
. So it's

2745
00:37:02,354 --> 00:37:02,754
not.

2746
00:37:02,754 --> 00:37:03,221
Yeah, you

2747
00:37:03,221 --> 00:37:03,821
could move

2748
00:37:03,821 --> 00:37:04,122
it around

2749
00:37:04,122 --> 00:37:04,623
.

2750
00:37:04,623 --> 00:37:04,890
Yeah. But really

2751
00:37:04,890 --> 00:37:05,257
, the

2752
00:37:05,257 --> 00:37:05,590
ferry

2753
00:37:05,590 --> 00:37:06,224
service

2754
00:37:06,224 --> 00:37:07,392
that you're providing

2755
00:37:07,392 --> 00:37:07,893
for which we're very grateful

2756
00:37:07,893 --> 00:37:08,227
on the island, by

2757
00:37:08,227 --> 00:37:08,560
the

2758
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:08,827
way. Uh

2759
00:37:08,827 --> 00:37:09,361
,

2760
00:37:09,361 --> 00:37:09,695
what would we do

2761
00:37:09,695 --> 00:37:09,928
without

2762
00:37:09,928 --> 00:37:11,462
it

2763
00:37:11,462 --> 00:37:12,197
?

2764
00:37:12,197 --> 00:37:12,377
Has no redundancy in it

2765
00:37:12,377 --> 00:37:12,631
, really

2766
00:37:12,631 --> 00:37:13,832
Uh

2767
00:37:13,832 --> 00:37:14,600
, you can't even lose one

2768
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:15,834
engine. We certainly don't have

2769
00:37:15,834 --> 00:37:16,568
a

2770
00:37:16,568 --> 00:37:17,236
second boat. I mean, in this

2771
00:37:17,236 --> 00:37:18,300
situation, there would be

2772
00:37:18,300 --> 00:37:18,670
a

2773
00:37:18,670 --> 00:37:18,937
second boat either

2774
00:37:18,937 --> 00:37:19,104
, but

2775
00:37:19,104 --> 00:37:19,438
the

2776
00:37:19,438 --> 00:37:20,405
point

2777
00:37:20,405 --> 00:37:21,273
is if

2778
00:37:21,273 --> 00:37:22,574
the

2779
00:37:22,574 --> 00:37:23,309
, if you, if

2780
00:37:23,309 --> 00:37:23,473
there's no electricity for

2781
00:37:23,473 --> 00:37:23,776
some

2782
00:37:23,776 --> 00:37:25,444
reason

2783
00:37:25,444 --> 00:37:25,945
, the generators produce

2784
00:37:25,945 --> 00:37:26,979
the electricity

2785
00:37:26,979 --> 00:37:27,378
needed to run

2786
00:37:27,378 --> 00:37:27,713
the boat

2787
00:37:27,713 --> 00:37:28,800
. If

2788
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:29,281
you got, if

2789
00:37:29,281 --> 00:37:30,115
a

2790
00:37:30,115 --> 00:37:30,649
generator goes down, you got

2791
00:37:30,649 --> 00:37:32,251
another generator

2792
00:37:32,251 --> 00:37:34,251
. So there's

2793
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:34,819
there's a lot

2794
00:37:34,819 --> 00:37:35,121
of redundancy

2795
00:37:35,121 --> 00:37:36,455
here

2796
00:37:36,455 --> 00:37:36,989
that we don't have today,

2797
00:37:36,989 --> 00:37:37,390
and that's another big

2798
00:37:37,390 --> 00:37:39,390
advantage

2799
00:37:41,293 --> 00:37:41,527
. Another thing

2800
00:37:41,527 --> 00:37:42,661
is

2801
00:37:42,661 --> 00:37:43,950
the

2802
00:37:43,950 --> 00:37:43,429
industry is

2803
00:37:43,429 --> 00:37:43,896
definitely going

2804
00:37:43,896 --> 00:37:45,231
this direction

2805
00:37:45,231 --> 00:37:46,640
Um

2806
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:47,199
There's

2807
00:37:47,199 --> 00:37:47,900
a

2808
00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:48,567
periodical for the industry

2809
00:37:48,567 --> 00:37:48,834
called Work Boat. I don't know

2810
00:37:48,834 --> 00:37:50,135
if

2811
00:37:50,135 --> 00:37:51,571
you're familiar with that

2812
00:37:51,571 --> 00:37:52,103
,

2813
00:37:52,103 --> 00:37:52,337
but uh it

2814
00:37:52,337 --> 00:37:53,390
, it

2815
00:37:53,390 --> 00:37:54,730
kind of is trends

2816
00:37:54,730 --> 00:37:54,340
in

2817
00:37:54,340 --> 00:37:55,700
the

2818
00:37:55,700 --> 00:37:55,641
industry. Here's just a

2819
00:37:55,641 --> 00:37:56,609
couple of quotes

2820
00:37:56,609 --> 00:37:57,210
again. This is

2821
00:37:57,210 --> 00:37:57,542
in the report

2822
00:37:57,542 --> 00:37:57,877
, so we

2823
00:37:57,877 --> 00:37:58,110
don't need

2824
00:37:58,110 --> 00:37:58,911
to

2825
00:37:58,911 --> 00:37:59,344
read them

2826
00:37:59,344 --> 00:37:59,645
, although

2827
00:37:59,645 --> 00:38:00,460
I've

2828
00:38:00,460 --> 00:38:00,979
underlined

2829
00:38:00,979 --> 00:38:01,214
. Kind

2830
00:38:01,214 --> 00:38:01,447
of

2831
00:38:01,447 --> 00:38:01,847
the reasons

2832
00:38:01,847 --> 00:38:03,149
you've got

2833
00:38:03,149 --> 00:38:03,783
fuel efficiency

2834
00:38:03,783 --> 00:38:04,150
,

2835
00:38:04,150 --> 00:38:05,383
minimize

2836
00:38:05,383 --> 00:38:06,152
emissions

2837
00:38:06,152 --> 00:38:06,585
, improved

2838
00:38:06,585 --> 00:38:07,587
performance

2839
00:38:07,587 --> 00:38:08,554
, um

2840
00:38:08,554 --> 00:38:08,855
that's

2841
00:38:08,855 --> 00:38:10,189
, that's

2842
00:38:10,189 --> 00:38:10,523
a lot of the

2843
00:38:10,523 --> 00:38:10,694
reasons

2844
00:38:10,694 --> 00:38:11,570
why the

2845
00:38:11,570 --> 00:38:12,158
industry

2846
00:38:12,158 --> 00:38:12,458
is going

2847
00:38:12,458 --> 00:38:12,825
in this

2848
00:38:12,825 --> 00:38:13,293
direction

2849
00:38:13,293 --> 00:38:14,260
. The second

2850
00:38:14,260 --> 00:38:14,727
quote is

2851
00:38:14,727 --> 00:38:15,161
kind of like

2852
00:38:15,161 --> 00:38:16,496
, hey

2853
00:38:16,496 --> 00:38:16,829
, everybody's

2854
00:38:16,829 --> 00:38:17,330
doing

2855
00:38:17,330 --> 00:38:19,232
this. The the

2856
00:38:19,232 --> 00:38:19,408
the

2857
00:38:19,408 --> 00:38:19,966
ferry

2858
00:38:19,966 --> 00:38:21,300
fleets built in the

2859
00:38:21,300 --> 00:38:21,534
70s and

2860
00:38:21,534 --> 00:38:22,301
the

2861
00:38:22,301 --> 00:38:23,101
80s are reaching the end

2862
00:38:23,101 --> 00:38:23,902
of

2863
00:38:23,902 --> 00:38:24,737
their service lives. That's

2864
00:38:24,737 --> 00:38:26,439
exactly the situation we're in

2865
00:38:26,439 --> 00:38:27,740
and people are

2866
00:38:27,740 --> 00:38:28,700
looking

2867
00:38:28,700 --> 00:38:28,508
at

2868
00:38:28,508 --> 00:38:28,842
electrification

2869
00:38:28,842 --> 00:38:29,976
and also

2870
00:38:29,976 --> 00:38:30,610
the

2871
00:38:30,610 --> 00:38:30,977
federal funds, as we

2872
00:38:30,977 --> 00:38:32,945
mentioned

2873
00:38:32,945 --> 00:38:33,480
before, often are looking for

2874
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:34,580
lower emissions

2875
00:38:34,580 --> 00:38:35,215
. To

2876
00:38:35,215 --> 00:38:35,482
be awarded.

2877
00:38:35,482 --> 00:38:37,830
So

2878
00:38:37,830 --> 00:38:39,830
uh

2879
00:38:39,653 --> 00:38:41,653
if

2880
00:38:42,210 --> 00:38:42,455
Scatter County goes

2881
00:38:42,455 --> 00:38:44,230
this

2882
00:38:44,230 --> 00:38:44,791
direction, you're right in

2883
00:38:44,791 --> 00:38:46,326
keeping with where the

2884
00:38:46,326 --> 00:38:46,693
industry

2885
00:38:46,693 --> 00:38:47,994
is going

2886
00:38:47,994 --> 00:38:48,595
With

2887
00:38:48,595 --> 00:38:48,895
the proviso that

2888
00:38:48,895 --> 00:38:49,461
it's

2889
00:38:49,461 --> 00:38:50,630
changing quickly again

2890
00:38:50,630 --> 00:38:50,931
.

2891
00:38:50,931 --> 00:38:52,665
It's

2892
00:38:52,665 --> 00:38:52,865
and

2893
00:38:52,865 --> 00:38:53,200
I

2894
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:53,500
read

2895
00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:53,834
several things

2896
00:38:53,834 --> 00:38:54,900
around

2897
00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:55,402
the

2898
00:38:55,402 --> 00:38:55,735
industry as we're

2899
00:38:55,735 --> 00:38:57,170
putting

2900
00:38:57,170 --> 00:38:57,503
this

2901
00:38:57,503 --> 00:38:57,838
together, where

2902
00:38:57,838 --> 00:38:58,438
people

2903
00:38:58,438 --> 00:38:59,506
are hesitant

2904
00:38:59,506 --> 00:38:59,873
to

2905
00:38:59,873 --> 00:39:00,140
move

2906
00:39:00,140 --> 00:39:00,974
now

2907
00:39:00,974 --> 00:39:02,242
because of the change that

2908
00:39:02,242 --> 00:39:02,809
might occur in 3 years from now

2909
00:39:02,809 --> 00:39:03,877
and yet they feel

2910
00:39:03,877 --> 00:39:04,400
the need

2911
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:04,645
to

2912
00:39:04,645 --> 00:39:04,811
do it now, especially if

2913
00:39:04,811 --> 00:39:05,412
you've

2914
00:39:05,412 --> 00:39:07,547
got end of service

2915
00:39:07,547 --> 00:39:07,948
. Which is,

2916
00:39:07,948 --> 00:39:08,248
you know

2917
00:39:08,248 --> 00:39:08,515
, our

2918
00:39:08,515 --> 00:39:08,782
fair

2919
00:39:08,782 --> 00:39:09,149
is reaching

2920
00:39:09,149 --> 00:39:11,149
that too

2921
00:39:13,487 --> 00:39:15,487
. So

2922
00:39:15,489 --> 00:39:15,664
here's

2923
00:39:15,664 --> 00:39:16,560
the

2924
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,560
recommendation

2925
00:39:19,493 --> 00:39:20,590
After

2926
00:39:20,590 --> 00:39:20,694
we

2927
00:39:20,694 --> 00:39:22,610
analyzed this idea

2928
00:39:22,610 --> 00:39:23,263
that Ryan

2929
00:39:23,263 --> 00:39:24,331
first mentioned of, hey

2930
00:39:24,331 --> 00:39:24,998
,

2931
00:39:24,998 --> 00:39:25,532
they're smaller. You don't need

2932
00:39:25,532 --> 00:39:26,800
to charge the arm

2933
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:27,000
. You

2934
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:27,534
can use

2935
00:39:27,534 --> 00:39:29,300
smaller batteries

2936
00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:29,269
. As long as

2937
00:39:29,269 --> 00:39:29,803
you

2938
00:39:29,803 --> 00:39:31,380
understand

2939
00:39:31,380 --> 00:39:31,372
this zigzag

2940
00:39:31,372 --> 00:39:31,672
thing

2941
00:39:31,672 --> 00:39:33,641
Um

2942
00:39:33,641 --> 00:39:33,907
and you

2943
00:39:33,907 --> 00:39:35,676
have

2944
00:39:35,676 --> 00:39:36,176
redundancy with

2945
00:39:36,176 --> 00:39:38,176
generators. So

2946
00:39:40,548 --> 00:39:42,149
after discussing that

2947
00:39:42,149 --> 00:39:42,816
, the

2948
00:39:42,816 --> 00:39:43,317
tag

2949
00:39:43,317 --> 00:39:44,518
changed if you

2950
00:39:44,518 --> 00:39:44,952
might remember,

2951
00:39:44,952 --> 00:39:45,419
we, we had

2952
00:39:45,419 --> 00:39:46,386
eliminated

2953
00:39:46,386 --> 00:39:46,854
the

2954
00:39:46,854 --> 00:39:47,488
options down

2955
00:39:47,488 --> 00:39:47,788
to 3

2956
00:39:47,788 --> 00:39:48,889
. Now

2957
00:39:48,889 --> 00:39:49,323
it

2958
00:39:49,323 --> 00:39:50,223
became

2959
00:39:50,223 --> 00:39:51,910
very clear again

2960
00:39:51,910 --> 00:39:51,559
,

2961
00:39:51,559 --> 00:39:51,992
interestingly

2962
00:39:51,992 --> 00:39:52,326
, that

2963
00:39:52,326 --> 00:39:52,793
plug-in

2964
00:39:52,793 --> 00:39:53,527
hybrid on

2965
00:39:53,527 --> 00:39:54,600
the

2966
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:54,362
initial analysis

2967
00:39:54,362 --> 00:39:54,629
was

2968
00:39:54,629 --> 00:39:55,763
last

2969
00:39:55,763 --> 00:39:56,497
. Now it's

2970
00:39:56,497 --> 00:39:56,655
the first

2971
00:39:56,655 --> 00:39:56,964
.

2972
00:39:56,964 --> 00:39:57,231
It's all

2973
00:39:57,231 --> 00:39:58,320
about

2974
00:39:58,320 --> 00:39:58,332
that charging

2975
00:39:58,332 --> 00:39:59,367
her

2976
00:39:59,367 --> 00:40:00,868
. And cost

2977
00:40:00,868 --> 00:40:01,202
and

2978
00:40:01,202 --> 00:40:03,104
the

2979
00:40:03,104 --> 00:40:04,639
mechanical diesel is

2980
00:40:04,639 --> 00:40:05,305
the #2

2981
00:40:05,305 --> 00:40:05,740
option. So that's kind of where

2982
00:40:05,740 --> 00:40:07,410
we stood for

2983
00:40:07,410 --> 00:40:07,541
a while

2984
00:40:07,541 --> 00:40:07,975
. We had

2985
00:40:07,975 --> 00:40:09,760
quite a bit

2986
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:09,444
of

2987
00:40:09,444 --> 00:40:09,777
debate

2988
00:40:09,777 --> 00:40:10,440
about

2989
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:11,813
this

2990
00:40:11,813 --> 00:40:12,413
. And that's where we

2991
00:40:12,413 --> 00:40:13,681
thought, well, we, we

2992
00:40:13,681 --> 00:40:14,849
could

2993
00:40:14,849 --> 00:40:16,500
recommend to to

2994
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:16,517
the

2995
00:40:16,517 --> 00:40:16,918
commissioners

2996
00:40:16,918 --> 00:40:18,190
. Here are

2997
00:40:18,190 --> 00:40:18,385
two

2998
00:40:18,385 --> 00:40:18,820
options

2999
00:40:18,820 --> 00:40:19,420
.. Between the two, but

3000
00:40:19,420 --> 00:40:20,388
that seemed like we

3001
00:40:20,388 --> 00:40:21,222
were

3002
00:40:21,222 --> 00:40:21,622
copping out to do that. So we

3003
00:40:21,622 --> 00:40:23,570
had a lot

3004
00:40:23,570 --> 00:40:23,358
of debate about

3005
00:40:23,358 --> 00:40:24,759
it

3006
00:40:24,759 --> 00:40:25,393
.

3007
00:40:25,393 --> 00:40:25,660
And then another

3008
00:40:25,660 --> 00:40:25,927
thought came

3009
00:40:25,927 --> 00:40:27,729
in

3010
00:40:27,729 --> 00:40:28,196
. Which is, if you think

3011
00:40:28,196 --> 00:40:29,597
about it, both

3012
00:40:29,597 --> 00:40:30,310
of these options

3013
00:40:30,310 --> 00:40:32,310
have a flaw

3014
00:40:32,133 --> 00:40:32,634
. The

3015
00:40:32,634 --> 00:40:34,634
plug-in hybrid

3016
00:40:34,635 --> 00:40:36,103
its flaw

3017
00:40:36,103 --> 00:40:36,503
is the

3018
00:40:36,503 --> 00:40:37,138
technology is

3019
00:40:37,138 --> 00:40:38,673
not really mature yet

3020
00:40:38,673 --> 00:40:38,839
It's

3021
00:40:38,839 --> 00:40:39,540
come

3022
00:40:39,540 --> 00:40:40,708
a long ways. You could

3023
00:40:40,708 --> 00:40:41,750
do

3024
00:40:41,750 --> 00:40:41,709
it

3025
00:40:41,709 --> 00:40:43,211
today, but according

3026
00:40:43,211 --> 00:40:43,878
to the

3027
00:40:43,878 --> 00:40:44,312
people like Paul

3028
00:40:44,312 --> 00:40:45,546
who work with

3029
00:40:45,546 --> 00:40:46,470
this all the

3030
00:40:46,470 --> 00:40:46,481
time

3031
00:40:46,481 --> 00:40:46,781
, and

3032
00:40:46,781 --> 00:40:48,250
Ryan

3033
00:40:48,250 --> 00:40:48,850
, uh

3034
00:40:48,850 --> 00:40:49,784
the next 5 years are

3035
00:40:49,784 --> 00:40:49,952
going

3036
00:40:49,952 --> 00:40:50,151
to

3037
00:40:50,151 --> 00:40:51,152
be

3038
00:40:51,152 --> 00:40:51,920
that's kind of gonna be

3039
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:52,354
the

3040
00:40:52,354 --> 00:40:52,754
sweet spot

3041
00:40:52,754 --> 00:40:53,210
. We find

3042
00:40:53,210 --> 00:40:54,210
it'll

3043
00:40:54,210 --> 00:40:54,689
keep

3044
00:40:54,689 --> 00:40:55,323
improving, but we're past the

3045
00:40:55,323 --> 00:40:56,458
knee of the curve

3046
00:40:56,458 --> 00:40:57,425
then

3047
00:40:57,425 --> 00:40:59,728
something like 5 years from now

3048
00:40:59,728 --> 00:41:01,296
So the

3049
00:41:01,296 --> 00:41:01,563
technology just is

3050
00:41:01,563 --> 00:41:02,297
not

3051
00:41:02,297 --> 00:41:03,231
mature enough yet

3052
00:41:03,231 --> 00:41:03,465
. You could

3053
00:41:03,465 --> 00:41:03,732
do

3054
00:41:03,732 --> 00:41:04,165
it

3055
00:41:04,165 --> 00:41:04,699
but

3056
00:41:04,699 --> 00:41:05,467
you'd be better

3057
00:41:05,467 --> 00:41:05,967
off

3058
00:41:05,967 --> 00:41:07,967
waiting a while

3059
00:41:08,336 --> 00:41:08,603
. The

3060
00:41:08,603 --> 00:41:09,400
mechanical

3061
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:10,905
diesel has

3062
00:41:10,905 --> 00:41:11,306
a problem

3063
00:41:11,306 --> 00:41:11,573
and that

3064
00:41:11,573 --> 00:41:12,841
is

3065
00:41:12,841 --> 00:41:13,140
once the existing

3066
00:41:13,140 --> 00:41:13,408
ferry

3067
00:41:13,408 --> 00:41:14,777
reaches its

3068
00:41:14,777 --> 00:41:17,110
end of life service

3069
00:41:17,110 --> 00:41:17,312
service life, what do you do

3070
00:41:17,312 --> 00:41:17,646
then

3071
00:41:17,646 --> 00:41:19,581
? If

3072
00:41:19,581 --> 00:41:19,915
you imagine the end of

3073
00:41:19,915 --> 00:41:21,416
service

3074
00:41:21,416 --> 00:41:21,683
our

3075
00:41:21,683 --> 00:41:21,983
ferry

3076
00:41:21,983 --> 00:41:22,351
is projected.

3077
00:41:22,351 --> 00:41:23,685
I mean

3078
00:41:23,685 --> 00:41:23,952
, there's no science to

3079
00:41:23,952 --> 00:41:24,486
this

3080
00:41:24,486 --> 00:41:26,354
, but to

3081
00:41:26,354 --> 00:41:26,855
be at the end of

3082
00:41:26,855 --> 00:41:28,560
its useful

3083
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:28,657
service

3084
00:41:28,657 --> 00:41:28,823
in 2039

3085
00:41:28,823 --> 00:41:29,158
.

3086
00:41:29,158 --> 00:41:30,325
That's a

3087
00:41:30,325 --> 00:41:30,959
60-year life

3088
00:41:30,959 --> 00:41:31,493
. Most

3089
00:41:31,493 --> 00:41:32,661
boats we went

3090
00:41:32,661 --> 00:41:33,270
through this for

3091
00:41:33,270 --> 00:41:33,695
a while

3092
00:41:33,695 --> 00:41:34,730
, most boats in the

3093
00:41:34,730 --> 00:41:35,130
, in

3094
00:41:35,130 --> 00:41:35,631
the, in

3095
00:41:35,631 --> 00:41:35,898
the Puget Sound, which

3096
00:41:35,898 --> 00:41:37,465
is

3097
00:41:37,465 --> 00:41:39,267
a rough place to run a

3098
00:41:39,267 --> 00:41:40,680
boat.

3099
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:40,269
Have a service life of about

3100
00:41:40,269 --> 00:41:40,836
4

3101
00:41:40,836 --> 00:41:41,837
years, but

3102
00:41:41,837 --> 00:41:42,103
it turns

3103
00:41:42,103 --> 00:41:42,972
out I

3104
00:41:42,972 --> 00:41:44,505
certainly didn't know this

3105
00:41:44,505 --> 00:41:45,274
, but

3106
00:41:45,274 --> 00:41:46,750
Rachel kind of gave us a

3107
00:41:46,750 --> 00:41:46,776
great

3108
00:41:46,776 --> 00:41:47,342
description of the history

3109
00:41:47,342 --> 00:41:47,843
of

3110
00:41:47,843 --> 00:41:48,510
this

3111
00:41:48,510 --> 00:41:48,978
, when the

3112
00:41:48,978 --> 00:41:49,136
boat was built

3113
00:41:49,136 --> 00:41:49,311
,

3114
00:41:49,311 --> 00:41:49,845
it

3115
00:41:49,845 --> 00:41:50,779
was built really

3116
00:41:50,779 --> 00:41:51,800
, really

3117
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:51,847
well

3118
00:41:51,847 --> 00:41:52,248
. It's thicker

3119
00:41:52,248 --> 00:41:53,150
steel than

3120
00:41:53,150 --> 00:41:53,415
they'd

3121
00:41:53,415 --> 00:41:53,782
use today

3122
00:41:53,782 --> 00:41:54,216
, and

3123
00:41:54,216 --> 00:41:54,517
this

3124
00:41:54,517 --> 00:41:54,782
boat

3125
00:41:54,782 --> 00:41:55,350
we

3126
00:41:55,350 --> 00:41:55,985
all

3127
00:41:55,985 --> 00:41:56,145
felt comfortable

3128
00:41:56,145 --> 00:41:56,485
,

3129
00:41:56,485 --> 00:41:56,724
including

3130
00:41:56,724 --> 00:41:57,453
the

3131
00:41:57,453 --> 00:41:57,720
maritime people

3132
00:41:57,720 --> 00:41:58,287
on

3133
00:41:58,287 --> 00:41:58,854
the

3134
00:41:58,854 --> 00:41:59,422
tag that

3135
00:41:59,422 --> 00:42:00,220
this boat

3136
00:42:00,220 --> 00:42:01,123
really has

3137
00:42:01,123 --> 00:42:01,423
a 60-year service

3138
00:42:01,423 --> 00:42:01,990
life

3139
00:42:01,990 --> 00:42:02,725
. Better than most because

3140
00:42:02,725 --> 00:42:03,250
it was so well built to start

3141
00:42:03,250 --> 00:42:04,727
with

3142
00:42:04,727 --> 00:42:05,327
. But then you're going to

3143
00:42:05,327 --> 00:42:07,363
have to do something

3144
00:42:07,363 --> 00:42:09,363
, so in you

3145
00:42:09,699 --> 00:42:10,933
can't start the day of

3146
00:42:10,933 --> 00:42:11,367
the last

3147
00:42:11,367 --> 00:42:11,801
day of the

3148
00:42:11,801 --> 00:42:12,680
service life of the

3149
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:13,350
boat

3150
00:42:13,350 --> 00:42:13,402
. So

3151
00:42:13,402 --> 00:42:13,869
let's

3152
00:42:13,869 --> 00:42:15,503
say in

3153
00:42:15,503 --> 00:42:16,139
2035

3154
00:42:16,139 --> 00:42:17,340
which

3155
00:42:17,340 --> 00:42:17,707
is

3156
00:42:17,707 --> 00:42:18,174
only what

3157
00:42:18,174 --> 00:42:18,407
7 or

3158
00:42:18,407 --> 00:42:18,774
8 years

3159
00:42:18,774 --> 00:42:20,276
from now

3160
00:42:20,276 --> 00:42:20,843
you're gonna have to

3161
00:42:20,843 --> 00:42:21,977
do something, you're

3162
00:42:21,977 --> 00:42:22,445
gonna

3163
00:42:22,445 --> 00:42:22,911
build another

3164
00:42:22,911 --> 00:42:24,911
uh

3165
00:42:25,810 --> 00:42:25,448
diesel-only

3166
00:42:25,448 --> 00:42:27,448
boat when

3167
00:42:29,752 --> 00:42:30,153
when the industry

3168
00:42:30,153 --> 00:42:32,153
says this

3169
00:42:33,523 --> 00:42:33,686
uh, 7 years from

3170
00:42:33,686 --> 00:42:34,230
now,

3171
00:42:34,230 --> 00:42:34,490
a lot

3172
00:42:34,490 --> 00:42:36,490
of these uh

3173
00:42:36,659 --> 00:42:37,760
maybe ifs

3174
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:38,361
in

3175
00:42:38,361 --> 00:42:39,162
this quotes are going to be

3176
00:42:39,162 --> 00:42:40,163
gone. I think it's going to be

3177
00:42:40,163 --> 00:42:40,563
this is

3178
00:42:40,563 --> 00:42:40,863
the

3179
00:42:40,863 --> 00:42:42,698
way

3180
00:42:42,698 --> 00:42:42,899
. So

3181
00:42:42,899 --> 00:42:43,333
that's a

3182
00:42:43,333 --> 00:42:45,100
problem. Uh

3183
00:42:45,100 --> 00:42:45,163
, so either both

3184
00:42:45,163 --> 00:42:45,702
of

3185
00:42:45,702 --> 00:42:46,836
those options have

3186
00:42:46,836 --> 00:42:47,504
a flaw

3187
00:42:47,504 --> 00:42:47,804
. And

3188
00:42:47,804 --> 00:42:49,239
what

3189
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:49,905
the

3190
00:42:49,905 --> 00:42:51,808
aha moment for us on

3191
00:42:51,808 --> 00:42:52,609
the

3192
00:42:52,609 --> 00:42:52,976
tag was what we ended up

3193
00:42:52,976 --> 00:42:53,443
calling

3194
00:42:53,443 --> 00:42:53,877
the

3195
00:42:53,877 --> 00:42:54,477
blended option

3196
00:42:54,477 --> 00:42:55,879
which is

3197
00:42:55,879 --> 00:42:56,446
if

3198
00:42:56,446 --> 00:42:58,181
you think about it

3199
00:42:58,181 --> 00:42:58,615
each of

3200
00:42:58,615 --> 00:42:59,348
those two options

3201
00:42:59,348 --> 00:43:01,748
solves the other's problem

3202
00:43:02,485 --> 00:43:02,852
So

3203
00:43:02,852 --> 00:43:03,620
if

3204
00:43:03,620 --> 00:43:05,255
the technology is not quite

3205
00:43:05,255 --> 00:43:05,788
mature enough now, you've got

3206
00:43:05,788 --> 00:43:06,990
to wait 5 years

3207
00:43:06,990 --> 00:43:07,223
. The

3208
00:43:07,223 --> 00:43:07,791
existing

3209
00:43:07,791 --> 00:43:09,392
boat gets you there

3210
00:43:09,392 --> 00:43:09,625
. If

3211
00:43:09,625 --> 00:43:10,226
we were

3212
00:43:10,226 --> 00:43:11,427
end of service right

3213
00:43:11,427 --> 00:43:11,962
now, what

3214
00:43:11,962 --> 00:43:13,930
would you do

3215
00:43:13,930 --> 00:43:14,598
? 7 or 8 years from

3216
00:43:14,598 --> 00:43:14,998
now when you're when you're

3217
00:43:14,998 --> 00:43:16,767
doing the

3218
00:43:16,767 --> 00:43:17,100
final pen, you know,

3219
00:43:17,100 --> 00:43:18,467
pen to

3220
00:43:18,467 --> 00:43:18,902
paper on this is what

3221
00:43:18,902 --> 00:43:19,202
we're going

3222
00:43:19,202 --> 00:43:21,202
to do

3223
00:43:25,375 --> 00:43:26,430
. I lost my

3224
00:43:26,430 --> 00:43:26,509
thought there for a second, but

3225
00:43:26,509 --> 00:43:27,711
the, the, the

3226
00:43:27,711 --> 00:43:28,780
point

3227
00:43:28,780 --> 00:43:29,646
is that

3228
00:43:29,646 --> 00:43:29,913
what

3229
00:43:29,913 --> 00:43:30,280
then

3230
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:30,647
becomes where the

3231
00:43:30,647 --> 00:43:32,149
industry

3232
00:43:32,149 --> 00:43:32,449
is going

3233
00:43:32,449 --> 00:43:34,449
with a

3234
00:43:34,685 --> 00:43:35,252
plug-in hybrid

3235
00:43:35,252 --> 00:43:36,453
. So our

3236
00:43:36,453 --> 00:43:36,954
final

3237
00:43:36,954 --> 00:43:38,954
conclusion is

3238
00:43:39,423 --> 00:43:41,224
maintain the

3239
00:43:41,224 --> 00:43:41,558
existing ferry. It's in good

3240
00:43:41,558 --> 00:43:42,993
shape

3241
00:43:42,993 --> 00:43:43,293
All

3242
00:43:43,293 --> 00:43:43,794
the

3243
00:43:43,794 --> 00:43:45,794
surveys say that

3244
00:43:45,996 --> 00:43:46,697
it costs some money. You've

3245
00:43:46,697 --> 00:43:47,498
always taken some big steps

3246
00:43:47,498 --> 00:43:48,165
in

3247
00:43:48,165 --> 00:43:48,432
that direction with the

3248
00:43:48,432 --> 00:43:50,367
new

3249
00:43:50,367 --> 00:43:50,734
engines. Uh, I

3250
00:43:50,734 --> 00:43:50,894
guess

3251
00:43:50,894 --> 00:43:51,235
the

3252
00:43:51,235 --> 00:43:52,102
outdrives

3253
00:43:52,102 --> 00:43:52,469
are on

3254
00:43:52,469 --> 00:43:53,300
the docket,

3255
00:43:53,300 --> 00:43:54,338
right? Rachel

3256
00:43:54,338 --> 00:43:54,771
, that's

3257
00:43:54,771 --> 00:43:54,930
it's

3258
00:43:54,930 --> 00:43:55,439
not

3259
00:43:55,439 --> 00:43:56,707
approved, but it's

3260
00:43:56,707 --> 00:43:57,241
talked about

3261
00:43:57,241 --> 00:43:59,241
certainly, right

3262
00:44:01,145 --> 00:44:01,378
? I

3263
00:44:01,378 --> 00:44:02,213
should ask

3264
00:44:02,213 --> 00:44:03,480
you. I don't have an answer for

3265
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:04,140
you on that

3266
00:44:04,140 --> 00:44:04,515
. Yeah. But that

3267
00:44:04,515 --> 00:44:05,649
would be a

3268
00:44:05,649 --> 00:44:06,283
major thing, but not

3269
00:44:06,283 --> 00:44:06,851
as big as the engines, right,

3270
00:44:06,851 --> 00:44:09,251
in terms of cost

3271
00:44:10,854 --> 00:44:12,823
. Up there

3272
00:44:12,823 --> 00:44:13,190
Yeah

3273
00:44:13,190 --> 00:44:14,825
you're

3274
00:44:14,825 --> 00:44:15,626
asking some pretty big

3275
00:44:15,626 --> 00:44:17,194
questions. Although, yeah, I, I

3276
00:44:17,194 --> 00:44:17,495
guess I kind of

3277
00:44:17,495 --> 00:44:17,795
, uh, I

3278
00:44:17,795 --> 00:44:18,396
remember

3279
00:44:18,396 --> 00:44:19,163
this discussion that

3280
00:44:19,163 --> 00:44:19,330
we

3281
00:44:19,330 --> 00:44:20,970
had

3282
00:44:20,970 --> 00:44:20,498
that it's not clear the out

3283
00:44:20,498 --> 00:44:21,932
drives

3284
00:44:21,932 --> 00:44:22,102
need replacement, right

3285
00:44:22,102 --> 00:44:22,300
?

3286
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:23,634
It

3287
00:44:23,634 --> 00:44:24,168
, the

3288
00:44:24,168 --> 00:44:24,402
answer is, I think

3289
00:44:24,402 --> 00:44:24,868
it

3290
00:44:24,868 --> 00:44:26,337
depends on

3291
00:44:26,337 --> 00:44:27,710
when the end of the

3292
00:44:27,710 --> 00:44:27,872
service life of the ferry

3293
00:44:27,872 --> 00:44:28,339
is

3294
00:44:28,339 --> 00:44:28,573
going to be

3295
00:44:28,573 --> 00:44:29,207
. Ok

3296
00:44:29,207 --> 00:44:30,808
, so the

3297
00:44:30,808 --> 00:44:31,108
point

3298
00:44:31,108 --> 00:44:31,709
is

3299
00:44:31,709 --> 00:44:32,108
, certainly you're not out in

3300
00:44:32,108 --> 00:44:32,777
the woods

3301
00:44:32,777 --> 00:44:33,109
. You've

3302
00:44:33,109 --> 00:44:33,678
got decisions

3303
00:44:33,678 --> 00:44:34,779
to make, but

3304
00:44:34,779 --> 00:44:35,279
the

3305
00:44:35,279 --> 00:44:35,513
point is

3306
00:44:35,513 --> 00:44:36,130
to

3307
00:44:36,130 --> 00:44:36,380
maintain

3308
00:44:36,380 --> 00:44:38,380
that ferry

3309
00:44:38,449 --> 00:44:40,151
to properly

3310
00:44:40,151 --> 00:44:40,418
till it's

3311
00:44:40,418 --> 00:44:42,530
end

3312
00:44:42,530 --> 00:44:42,487
of service, which

3313
00:44:42,487 --> 00:44:44,220
is 60 years

3314
00:44:44,220 --> 00:44:44,255
. And

3315
00:44:44,255 --> 00:44:44,622
by

3316
00:44:44,622 --> 00:44:46,622
that time

3317
00:44:46,991 --> 00:44:48,393
the technology not

3318
00:44:48,393 --> 00:44:49,260
being mature

3319
00:44:49,260 --> 00:44:49,427
enough yet, the

3320
00:44:49,427 --> 00:44:50,528
problem will

3321
00:44:50,528 --> 00:44:51,290
go

3322
00:44:51,290 --> 00:44:53,290
away. So

3323
00:44:53,765 --> 00:44:55,990
uh we're

3324
00:44:55,990 --> 00:44:55,566
saying

3325
00:44:55,566 --> 00:44:56,000
maintain the

3326
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:56,401
existing boat for

3327
00:44:56,401 --> 00:44:57,467
the next

3328
00:44:57,467 --> 00:44:58,336
few years

3329
00:44:58,336 --> 00:44:59,838
. Properly

3330
00:44:59,838 --> 00:45:00,638
and

3331
00:45:00,638 --> 00:45:01,840
then start the design

3332
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:02,707
of a

3333
00:45:02,707 --> 00:45:03,174
new plug-in hybrid the way we

3334
00:45:03,174 --> 00:45:04,175
described it

3335
00:45:04,175 --> 00:45:04,542
with

3336
00:45:04,542 --> 00:45:05,377
smaller

3337
00:45:05,377 --> 00:45:08,377
charging stations and so on

3338
00:45:08,379 --> 00:45:09,140
.

3339
00:45:09,140 --> 00:45:09,314
Something like 5 years

3340
00:45:09,314 --> 00:45:09,814
, maybe 6

3341
00:45:09,814 --> 00:45:11,490
years from now

3342
00:45:11,490 --> 00:45:11,549
, something like

3343
00:45:11,549 --> 00:45:11,949
that, get that

3344
00:45:11,949 --> 00:45:13,218
process going

3345
00:45:13,218 --> 00:45:13,885
.

3346
00:45:13,885 --> 00:45:14,285
We figured it's probably, and I

3347
00:45:14,285 --> 00:45:15,720
think in

3348
00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:16,454
your experience, you

3349
00:45:16,454 --> 00:45:17,455
know, from when you say, hey

3350
00:45:17,455 --> 00:45:18,123
,

3351
00:45:18,123 --> 00:45:18,690
let's start thinking about it,

3352
00:45:18,690 --> 00:45:19,123
let's start doing something

3353
00:45:19,123 --> 00:45:20,325
about this

3354
00:45:20,325 --> 00:45:20,825
. It's probably 5

3355
00:45:20,825 --> 00:45:21,259
years before

3356
00:45:21,259 --> 00:45:22,930
the boat's on

3357
00:45:22,930 --> 00:45:22,426
the

3358
00:45:22,426 --> 00:45:24,426
water

3359
00:45:27,299 --> 00:45:27,532
. There

3360
00:45:27,532 --> 00:45:27,865
are

3361
00:45:27,865 --> 00:45:28,333
some other

3362
00:45:28,333 --> 00:45:29,835
considerations

3363
00:45:29,835 --> 00:45:30,268
and these are

3364
00:45:30,268 --> 00:45:31,970
things that

3365
00:45:31,970 --> 00:45:33,939
we thought weren't

3366
00:45:33,939 --> 00:45:35,939
um

3367
00:45:36,341 --> 00:45:37,976
directly

3368
00:45:37,976 --> 00:45:38,377
. In

3369
00:45:38,377 --> 00:45:38,744
the path of

3370
00:45:38,744 --> 00:45:40,212
coming up

3371
00:45:40,212 --> 00:45:40,612
with a

3372
00:45:40,612 --> 00:45:41,246
single

3373
00:45:41,246 --> 00:45:41,647
recommendation for you all. Oh,

3374
00:45:41,647 --> 00:45:42,614
by the way

3375
00:45:42,614 --> 00:45:43,282
, I should have

3376
00:45:43,282 --> 00:45:44,816
mentioned this for sure

3377
00:45:44,816 --> 00:45:44,973
. This

3378
00:45:44,973 --> 00:45:45,450
,

3379
00:45:45,450 --> 00:45:47,219
I underline that

3380
00:45:47,219 --> 00:45:47,953
word unanimous

3381
00:45:47,953 --> 00:45:49,788
The

3382
00:45:49,788 --> 00:45:50,422
tag unanimously supported

3383
00:45:50,422 --> 00:45:51,757
the splendid option

3384
00:45:51,757 --> 00:45:52,291
. Before

3385
00:45:52,291 --> 00:45:52,591
that, when we had

3386
00:45:52,591 --> 00:45:53,658
the two

3387
00:45:53,658 --> 00:45:54,193
,

3388
00:45:54,193 --> 00:45:54,526
which solve each

3389
00:45:54,526 --> 00:45:54,893
other's

3390
00:45:54,893 --> 00:45:55,828
problem

3391
00:45:55,828 --> 00:45:56,195
. We

3392
00:45:56,195 --> 00:45:56,361
had some

3393
00:45:56,361 --> 00:45:56,929
debate

3394
00:45:56,929 --> 00:45:57,329
about that and we weren't

3395
00:45:57,329 --> 00:45:58,263
unanimous

3396
00:45:58,263 --> 00:45:58,864
, but

3397
00:45:58,864 --> 00:45:59,131
this

3398
00:45:59,131 --> 00:45:59,698
splendid

3399
00:45:59,698 --> 00:46:00,699
option was something

3400
00:46:00,699 --> 00:46:01,133
we all

3401
00:46:01,133 --> 00:46:01,600
supported

3402
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,402
unanimously

3403
00:46:03,402 --> 00:46:03,869
. So

3404
00:46:03,869 --> 00:46:04,869
funding

3405
00:46:04,869 --> 00:46:05,404
is

3406
00:46:05,404 --> 00:46:05,561
always an issue

3407
00:46:05,561 --> 00:46:05,870
, of

3408
00:46:05,870 --> 00:46:07,406
course

3409
00:46:07,406 --> 00:46:07,740
, but I

3410
00:46:07,740 --> 00:46:08,240
just put this

3411
00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:09,341
here. There are

3412
00:46:09,341 --> 00:46:09,842
these

3413
00:46:09,842 --> 00:46:10,309
other

3414
00:46:10,309 --> 00:46:10,776
considerations

3415
00:46:10,776 --> 00:46:11,977
. These are all

3416
00:46:11,977 --> 00:46:12,444
of this is

3417
00:46:12,444 --> 00:46:14,444
more thoroughly

3418
00:46:14,446 --> 00:46:14,914
uh

3419
00:46:14,914 --> 00:46:16,214
spelled out in

3420
00:46:16,214 --> 00:46:16,882
the report. The

3421
00:46:16,882 --> 00:46:17,249
report is basically written, by

3422
00:46:17,249 --> 00:46:18,517
the way

3423
00:46:18,517 --> 00:46:18,784
. It needs

3424
00:46:18,784 --> 00:46:19,510
some

3425
00:46:19,510 --> 00:46:19,785
more

3426
00:46:19,785 --> 00:46:20,653
editing and some additions

3427
00:46:20,653 --> 00:46:21,530
here

3428
00:46:21,530 --> 00:46:21,454
and there

3429
00:46:21,454 --> 00:46:21,720
, but it's

3430
00:46:21,720 --> 00:46:22,210
pretty much

3431
00:46:22,210 --> 00:46:23,155
done

3432
00:46:23,155 --> 00:46:23,555
. So

3433
00:46:23,555 --> 00:46:25,324
, uh

3434
00:46:25,324 --> 00:46:26,920
this is all

3435
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:28,930
fleshed out in the report

3436
00:46:28,930 --> 00:46:30,930
. Uh

3437
00:46:30,428 --> 00:46:31,290
There's a lot of stuff

3438
00:46:31,290 --> 00:46:32,198
happening in terms

3439
00:46:32,198 --> 00:46:32,965
of

3440
00:46:32,965 --> 00:46:33,365
reliability of the technology,

3441
00:46:33,365 --> 00:46:34,367
but I've

3442
00:46:34,367 --> 00:46:34,866
kind

3443
00:46:34,866 --> 00:46:36,569
of implied that a

3444
00:46:36,569 --> 00:46:36,969
lot

3445
00:46:36,969 --> 00:46:37,503
that though

3446
00:46:37,503 --> 00:46:37,803
it's changing

3447
00:46:37,803 --> 00:46:38,804
this

3448
00:46:38,804 --> 00:46:40,804
. Um

3449
00:46:41,140 --> 00:46:41,874
the kind of

3450
00:46:41,874 --> 00:46:42,175
futureproofing things that you

3451
00:46:42,175 --> 00:46:43,508
have

3452
00:46:43,508 --> 00:46:44,177
to do are going to be a

3453
00:46:44,177 --> 00:46:44,577
lot easier five years from now

3454
00:46:44,577 --> 00:46:45,911
than they

3455
00:46:45,911 --> 00:46:46,779
are today

3456
00:46:46,779 --> 00:46:48,114
. We already

3457
00:46:48,114 --> 00:46:48,614
mentioned

3458
00:46:48,614 --> 00:46:48,915
Coast Guard, what

3459
00:46:48,915 --> 00:46:50,116
does

3460
00:46:50,116 --> 00:46:50,450
, what does the

3461
00:46:50,450 --> 00:46:51,500
Coast Guard

3462
00:46:51,500 --> 00:46:51,384
allow and what it doesn't,

3463
00:46:51,384 --> 00:46:52,385
that's

3464
00:46:52,385 --> 00:46:53,119
in flux

3465
00:46:53,119 --> 00:46:53,619
The industry

3466
00:46:53,619 --> 00:46:54,520
seems to feel

3467
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:54,821
the

3468
00:46:54,821 --> 00:46:55,288
Coast Guard's

3469
00:46:55,288 --> 00:46:56,956
behind the times

3470
00:46:56,956 --> 00:46:57,623
. It's the

3471
00:46:57,623 --> 00:46:57,857
industry is ahead of

3472
00:46:57,857 --> 00:46:58,925
the

3473
00:46:58,925 --> 00:46:59,325
Coast

3474
00:46:59,325 --> 00:47:00,326
Guard in

3475
00:47:00,326 --> 00:47:01,361
this area, but

3476
00:47:01,361 --> 00:47:01,794
again

3477
00:47:01,794 --> 00:47:02,528
,

3478
00:47:02,528 --> 00:47:02,695
567 years from now, a

3479
00:47:02,695 --> 00:47:03,950
lot of

3480
00:47:03,950 --> 00:47:04,229
that will

3481
00:47:04,229 --> 00:47:04,564
be resolved

3482
00:47:04,564 --> 00:47:05,465
. And

3483
00:47:05,465 --> 00:47:05,865
then

3484
00:47:05,865 --> 00:47:06,533
there's a

3485
00:47:06,533 --> 00:47:06,833
very

3486
00:47:06,833 --> 00:47:08,100
key and

3487
00:47:08,100 --> 00:47:08,601
Alan

3488
00:47:08,601 --> 00:47:09,135
was

3489
00:47:09,135 --> 00:47:11,135
very uh uh

3490
00:47:11,237 --> 00:47:11,604
. Instrumental in

3491
00:47:11,604 --> 00:47:12,839
getting

3492
00:47:12,839 --> 00:47:13,673
us to

3493
00:47:13,673 --> 00:47:14,874
see this that

3494
00:47:14,874 --> 00:47:15,608
all

3495
00:47:15,608 --> 00:47:16,420
these things you're doing to

3496
00:47:16,420 --> 00:47:17,110
maintain the

3497
00:47:17,110 --> 00:47:17,744
existing boat,

3498
00:47:17,744 --> 00:47:18,445
let's say it has something to

3499
00:47:18,445 --> 00:47:20,246
do with the ramp or the

3500
00:47:20,246 --> 00:47:21,470
dolphins or something

3501
00:47:21,470 --> 00:47:22,515
like that

3502
00:47:22,515 --> 00:47:24,184
If

3503
00:47:24,184 --> 00:47:24,651
this is the direction you're

3504
00:47:24,651 --> 00:47:26,453
going to go

3505
00:47:26,453 --> 00:47:26,752
. What

3506
00:47:26,752 --> 00:47:27,190
you're

3507
00:47:27,190 --> 00:47:28,722
doing

3508
00:47:28,722 --> 00:47:29,388
today needs to be thought about

3509
00:47:29,388 --> 00:47:30,389
in terms of fitting with

3510
00:47:30,389 --> 00:47:31,324
where

3511
00:47:31,324 --> 00:47:32,659
you're going 5 or 6 years

3512
00:47:32,659 --> 00:47:33,260
from

3513
00:47:33,260 --> 00:47:33,593
now. So there's a

3514
00:47:33,593 --> 00:47:35,195
lot

3515
00:47:35,195 --> 00:47:35,662
of

3516
00:47:35,662 --> 00:47:36,960
futureproofing

3517
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,960
basically every

3518
00:47:38,331 --> 00:47:39,399
project that you do on

3519
00:47:39,399 --> 00:47:39,900
the

3520
00:47:39,900 --> 00:47:40,233
existing boat

3521
00:47:40,233 --> 00:47:40,666
there

3522
00:47:40,666 --> 00:47:42,202
needs to be

3523
00:47:42,202 --> 00:47:42,969
a discussion as how does that

3524
00:47:42,969 --> 00:47:44,571
fit with our long range plan

3525
00:47:44,571 --> 00:47:45,272
?

3526
00:47:45,272 --> 00:47:46,373
And so you don't find out

3527
00:47:46,373 --> 00:47:47,400
, you

3528
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,750
got to pull up

3529
00:47:49,750 --> 00:47:49,409
. Something and

3530
00:47:49,409 --> 00:47:50,777
rework

3531
00:47:50,777 --> 00:47:50,978
it because

3532
00:47:50,978 --> 00:47:51,612
nobody

3533
00:47:51,612 --> 00:47:52,946
thought of that. Bris

3534
00:47:52,946 --> 00:47:53,107
is a

3535
00:47:53,107 --> 00:47:53,746
good

3536
00:47:53,746 --> 00:47:54,281
example might be if you're

3537
00:47:54,281 --> 00:47:55,382
going to rebuild

3538
00:47:55,382 --> 00:47:55,540
the ramps

3539
00:47:55,540 --> 00:47:56,183
, and

3540
00:47:56,183 --> 00:47:56,483
I can't remember if that's on

3541
00:47:56,483 --> 00:47:58,285
the

3542
00:47:58,285 --> 00:47:59,752
schedule or not, is

3543
00:47:59,752 --> 00:48:00,521
it

3544
00:48:00,521 --> 00:48:02,155
Rachel rebuilding the ramps

3545
00:48:02,155 --> 00:48:02,723
?

3546
00:48:02,723 --> 00:48:04,723
The aprons, apron

3547
00:48:04,858 --> 00:48:05,580
. It's

3548
00:48:05,580 --> 00:48:05,425
on the,

3549
00:48:05,425 --> 00:48:07,294
it, it's

3550
00:48:07,294 --> 00:48:08,729
That's

3551
00:48:08,729 --> 00:48:09,263
what we

3552
00:48:09,263 --> 00:48:09,796
received the grant

3553
00:48:09,796 --> 00:48:10,864
funding for

3554
00:48:10,864 --> 00:48:11,331
,

3555
00:48:11,331 --> 00:48:11,732
and it's 5.8

3556
00:48:11,732 --> 00:48:12,332
million, is that

3557
00:48:12,332 --> 00:48:13,400
right, Tom? It's for

3558
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:13,866
the

3559
00:48:13,866 --> 00:48:14,201
electrical

3560
00:48:14,201 --> 00:48:16,201
and

3561
00:48:16,303 --> 00:48:16,804
hydraulic

3562
00:48:16,804 --> 00:48:18,500
replacement on

3563
00:48:18,500 --> 00:48:18,161
the bridges

3564
00:48:18,161 --> 00:48:18,572
as

3565
00:48:18,572 --> 00:48:19,139
well as

3566
00:48:19,139 --> 00:48:20,700
the replacement of

3567
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:20,341
the

3568
00:48:20,341 --> 00:48:20,841
aprons

3569
00:48:20,841 --> 00:48:21,542
. So

3570
00:48:21,542 --> 00:48:23,444
that's. That's a

3571
00:48:23,444 --> 00:48:23,611
terrific project, but we're

3572
00:48:23,611 --> 00:48:24,178
,

3573
00:48:24,178 --> 00:48:25,120
we're saying is

3574
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:25,278
when

3575
00:48:25,278 --> 00:48:25,579
you do

3576
00:48:25,579 --> 00:48:26,713
that

3577
00:48:26,713 --> 00:48:27,280
project

3578
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:27,437
, have the meeting

3579
00:48:27,437 --> 00:48:27,982
,

3580
00:48:27,982 --> 00:48:29,149
have the discussions

3581
00:48:29,149 --> 00:48:29,984
about how

3582
00:48:29,984 --> 00:48:30,550
does this fit with our

3583
00:48:30,550 --> 00:48:32,119
long-range plan

3584
00:48:32,119 --> 00:48:34,119
. Uh

3585
00:48:36,590 --> 00:48:38,920
so

3586
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:38,392
bottom

3587
00:48:38,392 --> 00:48:39,600
line

3588
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:40,528
we're

3589
00:48:40,528 --> 00:48:41,128
recommending to you

3590
00:48:41,128 --> 00:48:42,396
what we're calling the

3591
00:48:42,396 --> 00:48:43,164
blended

3592
00:48:43,164 --> 00:48:43,631
option, which is maintain the

3593
00:48:43,631 --> 00:48:44,832
existing ferry

3594
00:48:44,832 --> 00:48:45,199
well

3595
00:48:45,199 --> 00:48:45,466
, leading to

3596
00:48:45,466 --> 00:48:46,100
a

3597
00:48:46,100 --> 00:48:47,201
plug-in hybrid with this

3598
00:48:47,201 --> 00:48:47,601
more

3599
00:48:47,601 --> 00:48:47,935
modest

3600
00:48:47,935 --> 00:48:48,202
charging

3601
00:48:48,202 --> 00:48:49,269
thing

3602
00:48:49,269 --> 00:48:49,570
, and

3603
00:48:49,570 --> 00:48:50,204
we

3604
00:48:50,204 --> 00:48:51,671
encourage you to

3605
00:48:51,671 --> 00:48:52,600
adopt

3606
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:52,240
that

3607
00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:53,740
,

3608
00:48:53,740 --> 00:48:53,707
and one reason I think we

3609
00:48:53,707 --> 00:48:54,800
would

3610
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:54,342
all

3611
00:48:54,342 --> 00:48:54,942
we

3612
00:48:54,942 --> 00:48:56,243
who live on Guaymas

3613
00:48:56,243 --> 00:48:56,710
Island, you

3614
00:48:56,710 --> 00:48:58,613
as commissioners

3615
00:48:58,613 --> 00:48:59,460
.

3616
00:48:59,460 --> 00:48:59,513
Public works

3617
00:48:59,513 --> 00:49:00,782
, ferry crew

3618
00:49:00,782 --> 00:49:01,382
. I

3619
00:49:01,382 --> 00:49:02,784
think we'd all be

3620
00:49:02,784 --> 00:49:03,618
very happy to

3621
00:49:03,618 --> 00:49:05,860
say we know where we're going

3622
00:49:05,860 --> 00:49:05,453
.

3623
00:49:05,453 --> 00:49:06,187
This is

3624
00:49:06,187 --> 00:49:07,255
our plan, and we

3625
00:49:07,255 --> 00:49:07,955
are

3626
00:49:07,955 --> 00:49:08,423
recommending to you that this

3627
00:49:08,423 --> 00:49:10,158
be your plan

3628
00:49:10,158 --> 00:49:10,590
. So

3629
00:49:10,590 --> 00:49:11,726
I guess that's

3630
00:49:11,726 --> 00:49:12,392
it

3631
00:49:12,392 --> 00:49:12,694
. Now you got questions, I'm

3632
00:49:12,694 --> 00:49:14,694
sure

3633
00:49:14,963 --> 00:49:16,831
. Just thank you very much

3634
00:49:16,831 --> 00:49:17,398
for the presentation. I don't

3635
00:49:17,398 --> 00:49:18,633
know if Allan

3636
00:49:18,633 --> 00:49:19,233
and

3637
00:49:19,233 --> 00:49:19,634
, uh, Ryan, do

3638
00:49:19,634 --> 00:49:21,202
you wanna

3639
00:49:21,202 --> 00:49:23,700
, um

3640
00:49:23,700 --> 00:49:23,470
, add anything to

3641
00:49:23,470 --> 00:49:23,738
it at all

3642
00:49:23,738 --> 00:49:24,710
? I

3643
00:49:24,710 --> 00:49:25,340
mean, we

3644
00:49:25,340 --> 00:49:25,907
really do

3645
00:49:25,907 --> 00:49:26,540
appreciate all the time and

3646
00:49:26,540 --> 00:49:28,940
efforts put into it

3647
00:49:29,878 --> 00:49:30,178
. I

3648
00:49:30,178 --> 00:49:30,745
, I think

3649
00:49:30,745 --> 00:49:32,470
yeah, Sandy did

3650
00:49:32,470 --> 00:49:32,413
a great

3651
00:49:32,413 --> 00:49:32,981
job, um

3652
00:49:32,981 --> 00:49:34,582
I guess

3653
00:49:34,582 --> 00:49:34,743
some comments at the

3654
00:49:34,743 --> 00:49:35,317
,

3655
00:49:35,317 --> 00:49:35,684
uh, you really need to go to

3656
00:49:35,684 --> 00:49:36,785
the mic

3657
00:49:36,785 --> 00:49:37,151
get

3658
00:49:37,151 --> 00:49:37,685
him at home, be

3659
00:49:37,685 --> 00:49:39,200
able to hear it

3660
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:39,654
. You might, you

3661
00:49:39,654 --> 00:49:40,222
might want to say more about

3662
00:49:40,222 --> 00:49:41,789
this. I think this

3663
00:49:41,789 --> 00:49:42,790
is the

3664
00:49:42,790 --> 00:49:43,225
key

3665
00:49:43,225 --> 00:49:44,493
operational

3666
00:49:44,493 --> 00:49:45,427
. Yeah um yeah

3667
00:49:45,427 --> 00:49:45,760
,

3668
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:46,193
thank

3669
00:49:46,193 --> 00:49:47,828
you for

3670
00:49:47,828 --> 00:49:48,563
, uh, creating the

3671
00:49:48,563 --> 00:49:48,864
committee and I think we've had

3672
00:49:48,864 --> 00:49:50,198
some

3673
00:49:50,198 --> 00:49:50,465
really

3674
00:49:50,465 --> 00:49:51,320
great

3675
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:51,333
discussions

3676
00:49:51,333 --> 00:49:52,934
and

3677
00:49:52,934 --> 00:49:53,201
um have all come to a

3678
00:49:53,201 --> 00:49:53,535
very

3679
00:49:53,535 --> 00:49:54,668
good

3680
00:49:54,668 --> 00:49:54,936
conclusion

3681
00:49:54,936 --> 00:49:55,469
here

3682
00:49:55,469 --> 00:49:55,669
Um

3683
00:49:55,669 --> 00:49:56,104
, as

3684
00:49:56,104 --> 00:49:56,872
Sandy said

3685
00:49:56,872 --> 00:49:57,372
, the

3686
00:49:57,372 --> 00:49:59,372
uh

3687
00:49:59,540 --> 00:50:00,242
the

3688
00:50:00,242 --> 00:50:01,276
information shared here

3689
00:50:01,276 --> 00:50:01,576
is uh

3690
00:50:01,576 --> 00:50:01,944
was

3691
00:50:01,944 --> 00:50:02,144
kind of

3692
00:50:02,144 --> 00:50:02,510
a

3693
00:50:02,510 --> 00:50:02,778
critical step for

3694
00:50:02,778 --> 00:50:03,679
a

3695
00:50:03,679 --> 00:50:03,945
lot

3696
00:50:03,945 --> 00:50:04,312
of

3697
00:50:04,312 --> 00:50:04,746
us to

3698
00:50:04,746 --> 00:50:06,140
realize that

3699
00:50:06,140 --> 00:50:06,848
an

3700
00:50:06,848 --> 00:50:08,650
all electric ferry would be a

3701
00:50:08,650 --> 00:50:09,518
challenge given the

3702
00:50:09,518 --> 00:50:10,485
infrastructure upgrades

3703
00:50:10,485 --> 00:50:10,852
, but

3704
00:50:10,852 --> 00:50:11,153
changes

3705
00:50:11,153 --> 00:50:12,921
to

3706
00:50:12,921 --> 00:50:13,288
charging

3707
00:50:13,288 --> 00:50:13,822
technology

3708
00:50:13,822 --> 00:50:14,890
using

3709
00:50:14,890 --> 00:50:15,858
the

3710
00:50:15,858 --> 00:50:16,492
current

3711
00:50:16,492 --> 00:50:17,292
infrastructure allowed

3712
00:50:17,292 --> 00:50:18,360
us to

3713
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:18,827
,

3714
00:50:18,827 --> 00:50:19,862
uh, contribute

3715
00:50:19,862 --> 00:50:21,862
significantly to

3716
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:22,665
emission reductions to put

3717
00:50:22,665 --> 00:50:23,132
things in perspective

3718
00:50:23,132 --> 00:50:23,599
, the

3719
00:50:23,599 --> 00:50:23,999
charger that

3720
00:50:23,999 --> 00:50:24,432
I put

3721
00:50:24,432 --> 00:50:25,000
as just

3722
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:25,534
an

3723
00:50:25,534 --> 00:50:26,335
example is

3724
00:50:26,335 --> 00:50:26,802
about

3725
00:50:26,802 --> 00:50:27,303
1/6

3726
00:50:27,303 --> 00:50:27,636
the power

3727
00:50:27,636 --> 00:50:28,469
of

3728
00:50:28,469 --> 00:50:29,638
the

3729
00:50:29,638 --> 00:50:30,138
charging arm that

3730
00:50:30,138 --> 00:50:30,539
was

3731
00:50:30,539 --> 00:50:31,507
previously

3732
00:50:31,507 --> 00:50:32,308
considered

3733
00:50:32,308 --> 00:50:33,375
, so

3734
00:50:33,375 --> 00:50:33,809
that's

3735
00:50:33,809 --> 00:50:34,243
why it's

3736
00:50:34,243 --> 00:50:34,709
much

3737
00:50:34,709 --> 00:50:35,744
more

3738
00:50:35,744 --> 00:50:36,345
affordable and

3739
00:50:36,345 --> 00:50:36,911
reasonable and

3740
00:50:36,911 --> 00:50:37,312
feasible, I should

3741
00:50:37,312 --> 00:50:37,580
say

3742
00:50:37,580 --> 00:50:38,247
. Pugist

3743
00:50:38,247 --> 00:50:38,547
on Energy would like that more

3744
00:50:38,547 --> 00:50:39,949
too

3745
00:50:39,949 --> 00:50:40,282
because of the

3746
00:50:40,282 --> 00:50:40,483
load

3747
00:50:40,483 --> 00:50:41,884
. So

3748
00:50:41,884 --> 00:50:42,385
, um

3749
00:50:42,385 --> 00:50:42,918
and the tech

3750
00:50:42,918 --> 00:50:44,453
technology is well

3751
00:50:44,453 --> 00:50:44,854
established there

3752
00:50:44,854 --> 00:50:45,221
and continues

3753
00:50:45,221 --> 00:50:47,221
to evolve

3754
00:50:47,256 --> 00:50:49,256
and so yeah

3755
00:50:49,291 --> 00:50:50,590
, I think

3756
00:50:50,590 --> 00:50:50,224
uh several of us thought

3757
00:50:50,224 --> 00:50:50,592
that

3758
00:50:50,592 --> 00:50:51,494
you know

3759
00:50:51,494 --> 00:50:51,827
, in

3760
00:50:51,827 --> 00:50:53,362
5 years

3761
00:50:53,362 --> 00:50:53,828
, if we go

3762
00:50:53,828 --> 00:50:54,163
out to bid

3763
00:50:54,163 --> 00:50:55,598
for this

3764
00:50:55,598 --> 00:50:55,798
new

3765
00:50:55,798 --> 00:50:56,231
ferry

3766
00:50:56,231 --> 00:50:56,565
and planned

3767
00:50:56,565 --> 00:50:57,833
to have

3768
00:50:57,833 --> 00:50:58,601
, you know,

3769
00:50:58,601 --> 00:50:59,835
again, depending on how long

3770
00:50:59,835 --> 00:51:00,570
it

3771
00:51:00,570 --> 00:51:00,870
takes to get the bids

3772
00:51:00,870 --> 00:51:01,204
out and

3773
00:51:01,204 --> 00:51:02,905
build

3774
00:51:02,905 --> 00:51:03,139
a boat 8

3775
00:51:03,139 --> 00:51:03,439
to

3776
00:51:03,439 --> 00:51:04,673
10

3777
00:51:04,673 --> 00:51:05,274
years of

3778
00:51:05,274 --> 00:51:05,608
remaining life

3779
00:51:05,608 --> 00:51:06,575
for

3780
00:51:06,575 --> 00:51:07,430
the

3781
00:51:07,430 --> 00:51:08,111
current

3782
00:51:08,111 --> 00:51:09,111
ferry at would

3783
00:51:09,111 --> 00:51:09,412
be ideal

3784
00:51:09,412 --> 00:51:10,213
. The

3785
00:51:10,213 --> 00:51:10,680
technology will

3786
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:11,380
advance

3787
00:51:11,380 --> 00:51:11,981
. We've

3788
00:51:11,981 --> 00:51:12,181
just repowered

3789
00:51:12,181 --> 00:51:12,548
the

3790
00:51:12,548 --> 00:51:12,882
current

3791
00:51:12,882 --> 00:51:14,116
ferry

3792
00:51:14,116 --> 00:51:14,484
, and so it

3793
00:51:14,484 --> 00:51:14,750
seems like

3794
00:51:14,750 --> 00:51:15,451
a

3795
00:51:15,451 --> 00:51:16,520
good timeline

3796
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:17,754
, I think so

3797
00:51:17,754 --> 00:51:18,421
. And

3798
00:51:18,421 --> 00:51:18,954
I'm happy to answer any

3799
00:51:18,954 --> 00:51:20,290
questions about

3800
00:51:20,290 --> 00:51:20,757
the charging.

3801
00:51:20,757 --> 00:51:22,325
That was kind

3802
00:51:22,325 --> 00:51:22,991
of

3803
00:51:22,991 --> 00:51:23,693
my expertise

3804
00:51:23,693 --> 00:51:24,761
on the projects I've

3805
00:51:24,761 --> 00:51:25,361
worked on

3806
00:51:25,361 --> 00:51:25,728
recently, so happy

3807
00:51:25,728 --> 00:51:26,395
to answer

3808
00:51:26,395 --> 00:51:27,564
any questions there

3809
00:51:27,564 --> 00:51:28,130
.

3810
00:51:28,130 --> 00:51:28,531
Commissioner Browning, any

3811
00:51:28,531 --> 00:51:29,599
questions

3812
00:51:29,599 --> 00:51:30,232
on

3813
00:51:30,232 --> 00:51:31,801
that? No, actually

3814
00:51:31,801 --> 00:51:32,368
I really appreciate it. And,

3815
00:51:32,368 --> 00:51:33,350
you know, the difference

3816
00:51:33,350 --> 00:51:33,536
between your trucks and

3817
00:51:33,536 --> 00:51:34,269
the

3818
00:51:34,269 --> 00:51:34,938
ferry is you can pull over the

3819
00:51:34,938 --> 00:51:35,338
side of the road. We can't pull

3820
00:51:35,338 --> 00:51:36,239
over to

3821
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:36,573
the side of the of the

3822
00:51:36,573 --> 00:51:37,400
ferry

3823
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:38,441
, so, so

3824
00:51:38,441 --> 00:51:38,808
I really love the

3825
00:51:38,808 --> 00:51:39,750
the

3826
00:51:39,750 --> 00:51:39,642
, the

3827
00:51:39,642 --> 00:51:40,243
thinking behind this

3828
00:51:40,243 --> 00:51:40,677
.

3829
00:51:40,677 --> 00:51:41,510
It really is

3830
00:51:41,510 --> 00:51:41,745
nice and

3831
00:51:41,745 --> 00:51:42,450
, and I

3832
00:51:42,450 --> 00:51:43,312
did

3833
00:51:43,312 --> 00:51:43,680
not want to pull

3834
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:43,912
away

3835
00:51:43,912 --> 00:51:44,481
from

3836
00:51:44,481 --> 00:51:44,881
electricity. I just

3837
00:51:44,881 --> 00:51:45,348
did not

3838
00:51:45,348 --> 00:51:45,749
want to go

3839
00:51:45,749 --> 00:51:46,316
fully

3840
00:51:46,316 --> 00:51:46,616
electric for

3841
00:51:46,616 --> 00:51:47,350
that

3842
00:51:47,350 --> 00:51:47,984
reason

3843
00:51:47,984 --> 00:51:48,318
. And so this has

3844
00:51:48,318 --> 00:51:49,190
really

3845
00:51:49,190 --> 00:51:50,860
helped

3846
00:51:50,860 --> 00:51:50,654
me

3847
00:51:50,654 --> 00:51:51,188
tremendously

3848
00:51:51,188 --> 00:51:51,988
listening to

3849
00:51:51,988 --> 00:51:52,289
all the options

3850
00:51:52,289 --> 00:51:52,722
you

3851
00:51:52,722 --> 00:51:53,323
have. I

3852
00:51:53,323 --> 00:51:53,623
really appreciate

3853
00:51:53,623 --> 00:51:54,257
the

3854
00:51:54,257 --> 00:51:54,658
expertise

3855
00:51:54,658 --> 00:51:55,125
we've brought

3856
00:51:55,125 --> 00:51:55,791
that was

3857
00:51:55,791 --> 00:51:56,392
brought together

3858
00:51:56,392 --> 00:51:57,260
, um

3859
00:51:57,260 --> 00:51:58,929
the

3860
00:51:58,929 --> 00:51:59,362
, um, technology with the

3861
00:51:59,362 --> 00:51:59,663
I

3862
00:51:59,663 --> 00:52:01,198
mean

3863
00:52:01,198 --> 00:52:01,765
yeah

3864
00:52:01,765 --> 00:52:02,766
, I love the, the

3865
00:52:02,766 --> 00:52:03,660
10

3866
00:52:03,660 --> 00:52:03,500
year

3867
00:52:03,500 --> 00:52:03,834
the

3868
00:52:03,834 --> 00:52:05,402
, the

3869
00:52:05,402 --> 00:52:05,835
10

3870
00:52:05,835 --> 00:52:06,303
years of kind

3871
00:52:06,303 --> 00:52:07,571
of grace while

3872
00:52:07,571 --> 00:52:07,838
we work towards

3873
00:52:07,838 --> 00:52:08,505
a

3874
00:52:08,505 --> 00:52:09,673
really good solution. It's

3875
00:52:09,673 --> 00:52:10,374
also

3876
00:52:10,374 --> 00:52:10,907
exactly what fits after

3877
00:52:10,907 --> 00:52:12,800
all the money we

3878
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:12,475
just recently

3879
00:52:12,475 --> 00:52:12,910
put into it

3880
00:52:12,910 --> 00:52:13,176
going

3881
00:52:13,176 --> 00:52:14,377
to

3882
00:52:14,377 --> 00:52:14,778
run well

3883
00:52:14,778 --> 00:52:15,445
,

3884
00:52:15,445 --> 00:52:16,380
so everything you brought

3885
00:52:16,380 --> 00:52:17,447
today

3886
00:52:17,447 --> 00:52:18,714
is absolutely in line

3887
00:52:18,714 --> 00:52:19,820
with the,

3888
00:52:19,820 --> 00:52:19,550
how I've

3889
00:52:19,550 --> 00:52:20,851
been thinking

3890
00:52:20,851 --> 00:52:21,220
. I'm

3891
00:52:21,220 --> 00:52:21,652
not

3892
00:52:21,652 --> 00:52:22,850
smart enough to know all the

3893
00:52:22,850 --> 00:52:23,287
complexities

3894
00:52:23,287 --> 00:52:23,553
, but I still kind

3895
00:52:23,553 --> 00:52:24,388
of

3896
00:52:24,388 --> 00:52:25,289
heading the same direction

3897
00:52:25,289 --> 00:52:25,755
.

3898
00:52:25,755 --> 00:52:26,223
So I love it

3899
00:52:26,223 --> 00:52:26,523
. It's great. But

3900
00:52:26,523 --> 00:52:27,691
yeah

3901
00:52:27,691 --> 00:52:28,580
, thank

3902
00:52:28,580 --> 00:52:28,326
you. Thank

3903
00:52:28,326 --> 00:52:29,159
you for

3904
00:52:29,159 --> 00:52:29,992
all you bring to this because

3905
00:52:29,992 --> 00:52:30,293
that

3906
00:52:30,293 --> 00:52:30,693
really

3907
00:52:30,693 --> 00:52:31,328
is that that's

3908
00:52:31,328 --> 00:52:32,529
pretty much a game

3909
00:52:32,529 --> 00:52:32,830
changer when

3910
00:52:32,830 --> 00:52:33,970
you

3911
00:52:33,970 --> 00:52:33,464
realize

3912
00:52:33,464 --> 00:52:34,498
that

3913
00:52:34,498 --> 00:52:34,798
that arm

3914
00:52:34,798 --> 00:52:35,632
has

3915
00:52:35,632 --> 00:52:35,899
been really a problem

3916
00:52:35,899 --> 00:52:36,800
for

3917
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:37,670
us

3918
00:52:37,670 --> 00:52:37,534
,

3919
00:52:37,534 --> 00:52:37,835
both financially

3920
00:52:37,835 --> 00:52:38,268
and

3921
00:52:38,268 --> 00:52:39,937
structurally

3922
00:52:39,937 --> 00:52:41,400
. At the time

3923
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:41,705
when

3924
00:52:41,705 --> 00:52:43,340
Glaston did that, it made

3925
00:52:43,340 --> 00:52:44,410
sense

3926
00:52:44,410 --> 00:52:44,708
But that's the whole point here

3927
00:52:44,708 --> 00:52:45,843
The technology is

3928
00:52:45,843 --> 00:52:46,210
moving so

3929
00:52:46,210 --> 00:52:46,810
quickly

3930
00:52:46,810 --> 00:52:47,811
it probably

3931
00:52:47,811 --> 00:52:48,111
doesn't

3932
00:52:48,111 --> 00:52:48,578
make

3933
00:52:48,578 --> 00:52:48,912
sense anymore

3934
00:52:48,912 --> 00:52:50,247
. And

3935
00:52:50,247 --> 00:52:50,781
I think

3936
00:52:50,781 --> 00:52:51,150
even with the

3937
00:52:51,150 --> 00:52:51,582
changes in

3938
00:52:51,582 --> 00:52:52,683
technology, we need

3939
00:52:52,683 --> 00:52:53,384
the

3940
00:52:53,384 --> 00:52:54,584
redundancy that you brought

3941
00:52:54,584 --> 00:52:55,319
up

3942
00:52:55,319 --> 00:52:55,752
that is so important. We need

3943
00:52:55,752 --> 00:52:56,987
to have the

3944
00:52:56,987 --> 00:52:57,221
safety

3945
00:52:57,221 --> 00:52:57,588
valve

3946
00:52:57,588 --> 00:52:58,189
if if

3947
00:52:58,189 --> 00:52:59,657
one does not work

3948
00:52:59,657 --> 00:53:00,291
, if the to be

3949
00:53:00,291 --> 00:53:01,559
able to still get

3950
00:53:01,559 --> 00:53:02,590
to shore

3951
00:53:02,590 --> 00:53:02,493
, so

3952
00:53:02,493 --> 00:53:04,610
that

3953
00:53:04,610 --> 00:53:04,528
really is the big

3954
00:53:04,528 --> 00:53:04,962
difference in

3955
00:53:04,962 --> 00:53:05,363
all electric to

3956
00:53:05,363 --> 00:53:06,297
this, and

3957
00:53:06,297 --> 00:53:06,664
I'm real comfortable

3958
00:53:06,664 --> 00:53:07,165
with it

3959
00:53:07,165 --> 00:53:08,231
. Mr

3960
00:53:08,231 --> 00:53:08,499
. Burns

3961
00:53:08,499 --> 00:53:09,000
, any

3962
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:09,400
questions on

3963
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:10,368
? First, thank

3964
00:53:10,368 --> 00:53:11,680
you

3965
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:11,302
all for the effort you put

3966
00:53:11,302 --> 00:53:12,470
in

3967
00:53:12,470 --> 00:53:12,970
.

3968
00:53:12,970 --> 00:53:13,271
Um, sounds like

3969
00:53:13,271 --> 00:53:13,670
a well-rounded

3970
00:53:13,670 --> 00:53:14,972
group you

3971
00:53:14,972 --> 00:53:15,372
brought

3972
00:53:15,372 --> 00:53:16,307
together and

3973
00:53:16,307 --> 00:53:17,441
uh I appreciate the information

3974
00:53:17,441 --> 00:53:18,242
that

3975
00:53:18,242 --> 00:53:19,544
you presented to us. I do

3976
00:53:19,544 --> 00:53:19,911
have a few

3977
00:53:19,911 --> 00:53:20,310
questions on, uh,

3978
00:53:20,310 --> 00:53:21,912
first, the

3979
00:53:21,912 --> 00:53:22,547
charger. This took

3980
00:53:22,547 --> 00:53:23,914
roughly equivalent to

3981
00:53:23,914 --> 00:53:24,282
the

3982
00:53:24,282 --> 00:53:24,882
automotive

3983
00:53:24,882 --> 00:53:26,184
uh tier 3

3984
00:53:26,184 --> 00:53:26,354
. Yeah

3985
00:53:26,354 --> 00:53:26,818
, it,

3986
00:53:26,818 --> 00:53:27,351
you know, a

3987
00:53:27,351 --> 00:53:28,519
lot of people think

3988
00:53:28,519 --> 00:53:29,200
of

3989
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:29,420
Tesla chargers. The one I

3990
00:53:29,420 --> 00:53:29,820
use, this

3991
00:53:29,820 --> 00:53:30,855
is equivalent

3992
00:53:30,855 --> 00:53:31,189
to

3993
00:53:31,189 --> 00:53:31,823
the

3994
00:53:31,823 --> 00:53:32,857
highest powered

3995
00:53:32,857 --> 00:53:33,358
Tesla

3996
00:53:33,358 --> 00:53:33,625
superchargers. Ok

3997
00:53:33,625 --> 00:53:34,325
. Um

3998
00:53:34,325 --> 00:53:36,270
, so like

3999
00:53:36,270 --> 00:53:36,198
you wouldn't have this at most

4000
00:53:36,198 --> 00:53:36,393
,

4001
00:53:36,393 --> 00:53:37,729
even

4002
00:53:37,729 --> 00:53:38,162
retail outlets, because it

4003
00:53:38,162 --> 00:53:38,496
is pretty

4004
00:53:38,496 --> 00:53:40,230
high

4005
00:53:40,230 --> 00:53:40,665
powered, um, so

4006
00:53:40,665 --> 00:53:42,166
yeah, this has

4007
00:53:42,166 --> 00:53:42,534
a

4008
00:53:42,534 --> 00:53:42,867
360 kilowatt

4009
00:53:42,867 --> 00:53:44,602
rating

4010
00:53:44,602 --> 00:53:45,136
, the charging arm is

4011
00:53:45,136 --> 00:53:45,804
2

4012
00:53:45,804 --> 00:53:46,805
megawatt, you know

4013
00:53:46,805 --> 00:53:47,205
, at your

4014
00:53:47,205 --> 00:53:47,605
home, you're

4015
00:53:47,605 --> 00:53:49,400
getting 2

4016
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:49,440
or

4017
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:50,108
3

4018
00:53:50,108 --> 00:53:51,810
kilowatts, so

4019
00:53:51,810 --> 00:53:52,243
, um, it's

4020
00:53:52,243 --> 00:53:53,445
significant

4021
00:53:53,445 --> 00:53:53,878
, but

4022
00:53:53,878 --> 00:53:54,212
there's

4023
00:53:54,212 --> 00:53:55,113
many

4024
00:53:55,113 --> 00:53:56,414
manufacturers out there

4025
00:53:56,414 --> 00:53:56,748
, um,

4026
00:53:56,748 --> 00:53:58,115
there's

4027
00:53:58,115 --> 00:53:58,349
some discussion

4028
00:53:58,349 --> 00:53:58,916
of

4029
00:53:58,916 --> 00:53:59,251
going

4030
00:53:59,251 --> 00:53:59,684
up

4031
00:53:59,684 --> 00:54:00,252
to

4032
00:54:00,252 --> 00:54:00,852
800

4033
00:54:00,852 --> 00:54:01,185
kilowatts using

4034
00:54:01,185 --> 00:54:02,320
this

4035
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:03,880
charging standard

4036
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:03,588
. Um

4037
00:54:03,588 --> 00:54:05,900
, I

4038
00:54:05,900 --> 00:54:05,857
think the highest

4039
00:54:05,857 --> 00:54:06,491
powered

4040
00:54:06,491 --> 00:54:06,725
charger that you can buy

4041
00:54:06,725 --> 00:54:07,526
off

4042
00:54:07,526 --> 00:54:07,859
the shelf that I'm aware of

4043
00:54:07,859 --> 00:54:09,600
right

4044
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:09,561
now

4045
00:54:09,561 --> 00:54:09,828
that uses

4046
00:54:09,828 --> 00:54:10,228
this

4047
00:54:10,228 --> 00:54:11,195
standard

4048
00:54:11,195 --> 00:54:11,863
as

4049
00:54:11,863 --> 00:54:12,130
450 kilowatts. What

4050
00:54:12,130 --> 00:54:12,596
if

4051
00:54:12,596 --> 00:54:13,732
we did like

4052
00:54:13,732 --> 00:54:14,366
a multi-battery

4053
00:54:14,366 --> 00:54:14,832
bank and then had a

4054
00:54:14,832 --> 00:54:16,101
charger on

4055
00:54:16,101 --> 00:54:16,701
each side or

4056
00:54:16,701 --> 00:54:16,935
two chargers

4057
00:54:16,935 --> 00:54:17,569
and

4058
00:54:17,569 --> 00:54:18,136
that speed

4059
00:54:18,136 --> 00:54:18,970
up

4060
00:54:18,970 --> 00:54:19,171
charging

4061
00:54:19,171 --> 00:54:19,571
and

4062
00:54:19,571 --> 00:54:20,672
absolutely

4063
00:54:20,672 --> 00:54:21,206
yeah overheat

4064
00:54:21,206 --> 00:54:21,472
. Uh,

4065
00:54:21,472 --> 00:54:21,807
you

4066
00:54:21,807 --> 00:54:22,607
can use

4067
00:54:22,607 --> 00:54:23,208
the

4068
00:54:23,208 --> 00:54:24,109
battery

4069
00:54:24,109 --> 00:54:24,409
management systems to manage

4070
00:54:24,409 --> 00:54:24,609
all

4071
00:54:24,609 --> 00:54:25,143
of

4072
00:54:25,143 --> 00:54:26,244
that

4073
00:54:26,244 --> 00:54:26,812
, but

4074
00:54:26,812 --> 00:54:27,412
I think the

4075
00:54:27,412 --> 00:54:27,879
reason I

4076
00:54:27,879 --> 00:54:28,490
just selected

4077
00:54:28,490 --> 00:54:28,380
one

4078
00:54:28,380 --> 00:54:28,614
charger

4079
00:54:28,614 --> 00:54:29,113
for

4080
00:54:29,113 --> 00:54:30,415
these

4081
00:54:30,415 --> 00:54:30,749
graphs is

4082
00:54:30,749 --> 00:54:31,183
the

4083
00:54:31,183 --> 00:54:32,116
constraints

4084
00:54:32,116 --> 00:54:32,550
from

4085
00:54:32,550 --> 00:54:33,551
pse

4086
00:54:33,551 --> 00:54:33,985
, um,

4087
00:54:33,985 --> 00:54:34,286
didn't get a

4088
00:54:34,286 --> 00:54:34,820
chance

4089
00:54:34,820 --> 00:54:35,487
to discuss

4090
00:54:35,487 --> 00:54:36,121
with

4091
00:54:36,121 --> 00:54:36,989
pse what is

4092
00:54:36,989 --> 00:54:37,422
actually

4093
00:54:37,422 --> 00:54:37,689
available. Ok

4094
00:54:37,689 --> 00:54:38,900
. Um

4095
00:54:38,900 --> 00:54:38,824
, thinking

4096
00:54:38,824 --> 00:54:39,570
about the Anchor Cove

4097
00:54:39,570 --> 00:54:39,691
Marina

4098
00:54:39,691 --> 00:54:40,726
being right next

4099
00:54:40,726 --> 00:54:41,226
door and the

4100
00:54:41,226 --> 00:54:41,827
fact that I think

4101
00:54:41,827 --> 00:54:42,161
probably

4102
00:54:42,161 --> 00:54:43,428
every

4103
00:54:43,428 --> 00:54:43,593
birth that marina has

4104
00:54:43,593 --> 00:54:43,762
a

4105
00:54:43,762 --> 00:54:44,630
30

4106
00:54:44,630 --> 00:54:44,362
amp or

4107
00:54:44,362 --> 00:54:45,731
50

4108
00:54:45,731 --> 00:54:45,887
amp outlet

4109
00:54:45,887 --> 00:54:46,131
.

4110
00:54:46,131 --> 00:54:46,465
There's

4111
00:54:46,465 --> 00:54:47,466
probably

4112
00:54:47,466 --> 00:54:48,670
a reasonable

4113
00:54:48,670 --> 00:54:48,500
amount of energy

4114
00:54:48,500 --> 00:54:50,350
available

4115
00:54:50,350 --> 00:54:50,602
, um,

4116
00:54:50,602 --> 00:54:51,300
but you'd need to

4117
00:54:51,300 --> 00:54:51,337
have

4118
00:54:51,337 --> 00:54:51,770
extended

4119
00:54:51,770 --> 00:54:52,605
discussions

4120
00:54:52,605 --> 00:54:52,972
with pse

4121
00:54:52,972 --> 00:54:53,472
about

4122
00:54:53,472 --> 00:54:53,873
what's

4123
00:54:53,873 --> 00:54:54,940
available

4124
00:54:54,940 --> 00:54:55,240
, um, but I

4125
00:54:55,240 --> 00:54:55,641
think

4126
00:54:55,641 --> 00:54:56,175
that also

4127
00:54:56,175 --> 00:54:56,575
goes to

4128
00:54:56,575 --> 00:54:57,676
the

4129
00:54:57,676 --> 00:54:58,760
future

4130
00:54:58,760 --> 00:54:59,111
proofing

4131
00:54:59,111 --> 00:54:59,678
that if

4132
00:54:59,678 --> 00:55:00,112
electrical

4133
00:55:00,112 --> 00:55:00,712
service

4134
00:55:00,712 --> 00:55:01,147
was improved

4135
00:55:01,147 --> 00:55:01,747
in the

4136
00:55:01,747 --> 00:55:02,148
future

4137
00:55:02,148 --> 00:55:02,714
, you

4138
00:55:02,714 --> 00:55:03,150
add another

4139
00:55:03,150 --> 00:55:03,282
one

4140
00:55:03,282 --> 00:55:04,283
of

4141
00:55:04,283 --> 00:55:04,850
these

4142
00:55:04,850 --> 00:55:05,451
360

4143
00:55:05,451 --> 00:55:05,818
kilowatt

4144
00:55:05,818 --> 00:55:06,352
chargers

4145
00:55:06,352 --> 00:55:06,619
. You

4146
00:55:06,619 --> 00:55:06,819
could

4147
00:55:06,819 --> 00:55:07,153
run

4148
00:55:07,153 --> 00:55:07,787
almost

4149
00:55:07,787 --> 00:55:08,530
100% electric a lot of

4150
00:55:08,530 --> 00:55:08,353
the

4151
00:55:08,353 --> 00:55:08,754
time

4152
00:55:08,754 --> 00:55:09,889
ok, what's

4153
00:55:09,889 --> 00:55:10,510
the maximum

4154
00:55:10,510 --> 00:55:10,823
cord

4155
00:55:10,823 --> 00:55:11,223
length on this? I'm thinking

4156
00:55:11,223 --> 00:55:12,224
about how

4157
00:55:12,224 --> 00:55:12,425
far away can

4158
00:55:12,425 --> 00:55:13,225
the boat

4159
00:55:13,225 --> 00:55:14,592
? Yeah, it's a good question

4160
00:55:14,592 --> 00:55:14,894
.

4161
00:55:14,894 --> 00:55:15,394
Um

4162
00:55:15,394 --> 00:55:16,995
, the

4163
00:55:16,995 --> 00:55:17,330
, uh, so

4164
00:55:17,330 --> 00:55:17,491
there's

4165
00:55:17,491 --> 00:55:17,797
,

4166
00:55:17,797 --> 00:55:18,297
there's

4167
00:55:18,297 --> 00:55:18,731
different standards

4168
00:55:18,731 --> 00:55:19,332
.

4169
00:55:19,332 --> 00:55:20,990
There's all in

4170
00:55:20,990 --> 00:55:21,301
one

4171
00:55:21,301 --> 00:55:21,801
chargers

4172
00:55:21,801 --> 00:55:22,268
where from the

4173
00:55:22,268 --> 00:55:22,468
charging

4174
00:55:22,468 --> 00:55:22,869
unit

4175
00:55:22,869 --> 00:55:23,870
that's like

4176
00:55:23,870 --> 00:55:25,271
that

4177
00:55:25,271 --> 00:55:25,738
refrigerator-sized unit to

4178
00:55:25,738 --> 00:55:26,372
the

4179
00:55:26,372 --> 00:55:27,106
outlet on

4180
00:55:27,106 --> 00:55:27,540
the boat

4181
00:55:27,540 --> 00:55:27,840
would be

4182
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:28,730
2

4183
00:55:28,730 --> 00:55:28,407
to

4184
00:55:28,407 --> 00:55:29,142
3

4185
00:55:29,142 --> 00:55:29,442
m, so it's got

4186
00:55:29,442 --> 00:55:30,810
to be

4187
00:55:30,810 --> 00:55:31,344
pretty close, like at the end

4188
00:55:31,344 --> 00:55:31,711
of the

4189
00:55:31,711 --> 00:55:32,745
ramp. Ok

4190
00:55:32,745 --> 00:55:33,613
. There's

4191
00:55:33,613 --> 00:55:33,980
others

4192
00:55:33,980 --> 00:55:34,347
where you

4193
00:55:34,347 --> 00:55:34,947
can have

4194
00:55:34,947 --> 00:55:35,214
the majority

4195
00:55:35,214 --> 00:55:37,116
of

4196
00:55:37,116 --> 00:55:38,510
the

4197
00:55:38,510 --> 00:55:39,685
electrical equipment in

4198
00:55:39,685 --> 00:55:39,952
other cabinets and that's just

4199
00:55:39,952 --> 00:55:41,753
a

4200
00:55:41,753 --> 00:55:42,210
smaller dispenser at the end

4201
00:55:42,210 --> 00:55:42,655
of

4202
00:55:42,655 --> 00:55:43,656
the ferry

4203
00:55:43,656 --> 00:55:43,923
or the

4204
00:55:43,923 --> 00:55:44,324
ferry

4205
00:55:44,324 --> 00:55:44,924
dock

4206
00:55:44,924 --> 00:55:46,159
that could have a

4207
00:55:46,159 --> 00:55:46,323
longer cable

4208
00:55:46,323 --> 00:55:46,758
,

4209
00:55:46,758 --> 00:55:47,193
so there are

4210
00:55:47,193 --> 00:55:47,894
limits to that

4211
00:55:47,894 --> 00:55:48,161
. It

4212
00:55:48,161 --> 00:55:48,461
just

4213
00:55:48,461 --> 00:55:48,728
depends

4214
00:55:48,728 --> 00:55:49,162
on

4215
00:55:49,162 --> 00:55:49,462
which

4216
00:55:49,462 --> 00:55:49,795
charging

4217
00:55:49,795 --> 00:55:50,563
system

4218
00:55:50,563 --> 00:55:51,364
you use

4219
00:55:51,364 --> 00:55:52,197
. Has anyone set

4220
00:55:52,197 --> 00:55:52,665
it up where it's actually

4221
00:55:52,665 --> 00:55:52,932
on

4222
00:55:52,932 --> 00:55:53,333
the

4223
00:55:53,333 --> 00:55:53,900
, the

4224
00:55:53,900 --> 00:55:55,680
I

4225
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:55,335
don't know

4226
00:55:55,335 --> 00:55:55,702
about

4227
00:55:55,702 --> 00:55:57,300
moving

4228
00:55:57,300 --> 00:55:57,203
ramps

4229
00:55:57,203 --> 00:55:57,836
. Um

4230
00:55:57,836 --> 00:55:58,371
, I saw one

4231
00:55:58,371 --> 00:55:59,372
example. I think

4232
00:55:59,372 --> 00:55:59,739
it was

4233
00:55:59,739 --> 00:56:00,390
in

4234
00:56:00,390 --> 00:56:00,440
Turkey

4235
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:01,708
, where they

4236
00:56:01,708 --> 00:56:01,941
actually

4237
00:56:01,941 --> 00:56:02,575
had

4238
00:56:02,575 --> 00:56:04,440
20 of these

4239
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:04,377
style

4240
00:56:04,377 --> 00:56:04,644
chargers

4241
00:56:04,644 --> 00:56:05,450
, all

4242
00:56:05,450 --> 00:56:06,245
on a

4243
00:56:06,245 --> 00:56:06,579
fixed

4244
00:56:06,579 --> 00:56:07,347
pier

4245
00:56:07,347 --> 00:56:07,613
so yeah

4246
00:56:07,613 --> 00:56:08,915
, the

4247
00:56:08,915 --> 00:56:09,750
moving pier makes it

4248
00:56:09,750 --> 00:56:09,415
a

4249
00:56:09,415 --> 00:56:09,950
challenge

4250
00:56:09,950 --> 00:56:10,917
, but

4251
00:56:10,917 --> 00:56:12,180
as I recall

4252
00:56:12,180 --> 00:56:13,786
, the

4253
00:56:13,786 --> 00:56:14,120
charger weighs somewhere

4254
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:14,721
around

4255
00:56:14,721 --> 00:56:15,188
2000 pounds

4256
00:56:15,188 --> 00:56:16,890
, so

4257
00:56:16,890 --> 00:56:16,489
it's

4258
00:56:16,489 --> 00:56:17,900
not

4259
00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:17,924
extremely heavy

4260
00:56:17,924 --> 00:56:18,124
. Yeah

4261
00:56:18,124 --> 00:56:18,391
. Um

4262
00:56:18,391 --> 00:56:20,260
, what

4263
00:56:20,260 --> 00:56:20,226
is the max drawdown on

4264
00:56:20,226 --> 00:56:20,861
these

4265
00:56:20,861 --> 00:56:21,862
batteries because I see

4266
00:56:21,862 --> 00:56:22,662
that

4267
00:56:22,662 --> 00:56:24,597
they're showing going under

4268
00:56:24,597 --> 00:56:25,132
200

4269
00:56:25,132 --> 00:56:26,299
kilowatt hours. I

4270
00:56:26,299 --> 00:56:26,700
wasn't sure

4271
00:56:26,700 --> 00:56:27,234
what the max

4272
00:56:27,234 --> 00:56:27,868
draw down before

4273
00:56:27,868 --> 00:56:28,668
you're causing problems

4274
00:56:28,668 --> 00:56:29,302
with

4275
00:56:29,302 --> 00:56:29,770
the battery. Yeah, no, that,

4276
00:56:29,770 --> 00:56:31,370
that's a great

4277
00:56:31,370 --> 00:56:31,805
question

4278
00:56:31,805 --> 00:56:33,473
. I

4279
00:56:33,473 --> 00:56:33,873
didn't really use that in

4280
00:56:33,873 --> 00:56:34,574
the

4281
00:56:34,574 --> 00:56:35,442
analysis because it's such

4282
00:56:35,442 --> 00:56:36,143
a

4283
00:56:36,143 --> 00:56:36,743
basic analysis

4284
00:56:36,743 --> 00:56:36,977
right here

4285
00:56:36,977 --> 00:56:38,612
. Um

4286
00:56:38,612 --> 00:56:39,145
,

4287
00:56:39,145 --> 00:56:39,446
ideally, you know

4288
00:56:39,446 --> 00:56:39,947
, for some

4289
00:56:39,947 --> 00:56:40,279
people who might

4290
00:56:40,279 --> 00:56:40,580
drive

4291
00:56:40,580 --> 00:56:41,140
electric

4292
00:56:41,140 --> 00:56:41,481
cars. Um-hum

4293
00:56:41,481 --> 00:56:42,349
. You

4294
00:56:42,349 --> 00:56:42,715
try to

4295
00:56:42,715 --> 00:56:43,830
use

4296
00:56:43,830 --> 00:56:44,116
a

4297
00:56:44,116 --> 00:56:45,152
daily operational range of 80

4298
00:56:45,152 --> 00:56:45,953
to 20%

4299
00:56:45,953 --> 00:56:46,787
. So

4300
00:56:46,787 --> 00:56:46,953
you could

4301
00:56:46,953 --> 00:56:47,754
factor

4302
00:56:47,754 --> 00:56:49,560
that in and by sizing up

4303
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:49,723
the

4304
00:56:49,723 --> 00:56:50,157
batteries a little bit. Um-hum.

4305
00:56:50,157 --> 00:56:51,225
To give you

4306
00:56:51,225 --> 00:56:51,458
more range

4307
00:56:51,458 --> 00:56:51,859
. Ok

4308
00:56:51,859 --> 00:56:53,560
. Um

4309
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:53,827
I chose a

4310
00:56:53,827 --> 00:56:54,261
1

4311
00:56:54,261 --> 00:56:55,829
megawatt hour

4312
00:56:55,829 --> 00:56:56,596
battery or

4313
00:56:56,596 --> 00:56:57,765
1000 kilowatt

4314
00:56:57,765 --> 00:56:58,365
hour

4315
00:56:58,365 --> 00:56:59,133
battery, um, because I think

4316
00:56:59,133 --> 00:56:59,399
that had been discussed in one

4317
00:56:59,399 --> 00:57:00,433
of

4318
00:57:00,433 --> 00:57:01,268
the

4319
00:57:01,268 --> 00:57:02,569
earlier reports

4320
00:57:02,569 --> 00:57:03,103
, um

4321
00:57:03,103 --> 00:57:03,370
but

4322
00:57:03,370 --> 00:57:05,172
the

4323
00:57:05,172 --> 00:57:05,806
, uh, energy density in

4324
00:57:05,806 --> 00:57:07,608
batteries is improving

4325
00:57:07,608 --> 00:57:07,874
, so what

4326
00:57:07,874 --> 00:57:09,874
I

4327
00:57:10,276 --> 00:57:10,578
1000 kilowatt hour battery

4328
00:57:10,578 --> 00:57:11,945
MAY

4329
00:57:11,945 --> 00:57:13,314
have weighed 10 years ago

4330
00:57:13,314 --> 00:57:13,981
.

4331
00:57:13,981 --> 00:57:14,615
It's significantly reduced, so

4332
00:57:14,615 --> 00:57:15,916
you could size that

4333
00:57:15,916 --> 00:57:16,250
up

4334
00:57:16,250 --> 00:57:16,472
to

4335
00:57:16,472 --> 00:57:17,170
1200

4336
00:57:17,170 --> 00:57:17,351
kilowatt hours to give you a

4337
00:57:17,351 --> 00:57:18,285
little

4338
00:57:18,285 --> 00:57:18,619
more

4339
00:57:18,619 --> 00:57:19,190
flexibility

4340
00:57:19,190 --> 00:57:19,387
and

4341
00:57:19,387 --> 00:57:20,754
longevity

4342
00:57:20,754 --> 00:57:21,155
. Ok. Uh

4343
00:57:21,155 --> 00:57:21,955
, I can ask

4344
00:57:21,955 --> 00:57:23,357
more questions, but I'll stop

4345
00:57:23,357 --> 00:57:23,657
there and just thank you

4346
00:57:23,657 --> 00:57:23,924
for

4347
00:57:23,924 --> 00:57:24,291
the

4348
00:57:24,291 --> 00:57:25,225
review and

4349
00:57:25,225 --> 00:57:25,384
the analysis

4350
00:57:25,384 --> 00:57:25,627
of

4351
00:57:25,627 --> 00:57:25,860
this

4352
00:57:25,860 --> 00:57:26,393
. I

4353
00:57:26,393 --> 00:57:27,193
think that

4354
00:57:27,193 --> 00:57:27,995
the

4355
00:57:27,995 --> 00:57:28,462
recommendation put forward

4356
00:57:28,462 --> 00:57:29,290
makes a lot

4357
00:57:29,290 --> 00:57:29,530
of sense

4358
00:57:29,530 --> 00:57:30,464
. The

4359
00:57:30,464 --> 00:57:31,197
hybrid does give us lot

4360
00:57:31,197 --> 00:57:31,966
of

4361
00:57:31,966 --> 00:57:32,266
flexibility if there's ever

4362
00:57:32,266 --> 00:57:33,234
a

4363
00:57:33,234 --> 00:57:33,935
power problem, you know

4364
00:57:33,935 --> 00:57:34,202
, we

4365
00:57:34,202 --> 00:57:34,669
lose

4366
00:57:34,669 --> 00:57:35,235
power to

4367
00:57:35,235 --> 00:57:35,393
that station

4368
00:57:35,393 --> 00:57:35,770
.

4369
00:57:35,770 --> 00:57:36,571
It's very

4370
00:57:36,571 --> 00:57:37,138
easy to just kick on

4371
00:57:37,138 --> 00:57:37,939
the

4372
00:57:37,939 --> 00:57:38,172
diesel generators and run

4373
00:57:38,172 --> 00:57:39,507
it

4374
00:57:39,507 --> 00:57:40,208
, um, Commissioner Wheaton

4375
00:57:40,208 --> 00:57:40,708
was correct that

4376
00:57:40,708 --> 00:57:41,309
uh emission

4377
00:57:41,309 --> 00:57:42,430
standards have, have come a

4378
00:57:42,430 --> 00:57:42,777
long ways on these engines

4379
00:57:42,777 --> 00:57:43,611
,

4380
00:57:43,611 --> 00:57:44,212
although you can make them run

4381
00:57:44,212 --> 00:57:45,179
quite dirty. You

4382
00:57:45,179 --> 00:57:45,679
can also make

4383
00:57:45,679 --> 00:57:45,980
them very

4384
00:57:45,980 --> 00:57:46,347
clean

4385
00:57:46,347 --> 00:57:46,614
, uh, depending

4386
00:57:46,614 --> 00:57:47,415
on

4387
00:57:47,415 --> 00:57:47,815
the

4388
00:57:47,815 --> 00:57:48,820
emissions

4389
00:57:48,820 --> 00:57:48,682
outputs. You

4390
00:57:48,682 --> 00:57:49,884
you at Packard, I'm

4391
00:57:49,884 --> 00:57:50,818
sure you're

4392
00:57:50,818 --> 00:57:51,219
you're completely used to

4393
00:57:51,219 --> 00:57:51,986
dealing

4394
00:57:51,986 --> 00:57:52,453
with

4395
00:57:52,453 --> 00:57:52,953
those mission

4396
00:57:52,953 --> 00:57:53,588
systems as I

4397
00:57:53,588 --> 00:57:54,121
was where you

4398
00:57:54,121 --> 00:57:54,755
can

4399
00:57:54,755 --> 00:57:55,189
literally take the

4400
00:57:55,189 --> 00:57:55,924
exhaust

4401
00:57:55,924 --> 00:57:56,858
filters off and

4402
00:57:56,858 --> 00:57:57,592
wash them

4403
00:57:57,592 --> 00:57:57,859
. Um

4404
00:57:57,859 --> 00:57:58,126
,

4405
00:57:58,126 --> 00:57:59,260
and

4406
00:57:59,260 --> 00:57:59,928
, uh, helped capture quite a

4407
00:57:59,928 --> 00:58:00,128
bit of that carbon

4408
00:58:00,128 --> 00:58:00,528
that's

4409
00:58:00,528 --> 00:58:01,229
coming off

4410
00:58:01,229 --> 00:58:01,529
of it and

4411
00:58:01,529 --> 00:58:02,960
you really

4412
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:02,564
just don't see

4413
00:58:02,564 --> 00:58:03,310
the same

4414
00:58:03,310 --> 00:58:03,364
type

4415
00:58:03,364 --> 00:58:03,698
of

4416
00:58:03,698 --> 00:58:04,332
mission

4417
00:58:04,332 --> 00:58:04,933
. So

4418
00:58:04,933 --> 00:58:05,333
, um, I'd

4419
00:58:05,333 --> 00:58:06,100
be

4420
00:58:06,100 --> 00:58:06,601
perfectly

4421
00:58:06,601 --> 00:58:07,202
comfortable with

4422
00:58:07,202 --> 00:58:07,702
,

4423
00:58:07,702 --> 00:58:07,902
with that type

4424
00:58:07,902 --> 00:58:08,403
of

4425
00:58:08,403 --> 00:58:09,170
propulsion

4426
00:58:09,170 --> 00:58:09,604
system being the backup

4427
00:58:09,604 --> 00:58:10,271
. And

4428
00:58:10,271 --> 00:58:10,905
making sure that we could keep

4429
00:58:10,905 --> 00:58:12,720
running it, especially

4430
00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:12,241
in

4431
00:58:12,241 --> 00:58:12,774
rough

4432
00:58:12,774 --> 00:58:13,274
seas where we're not

4433
00:58:13,274 --> 00:58:14,475
overloading the

4434
00:58:14,475 --> 00:58:14,743
boat

4435
00:58:14,743 --> 00:58:15,510
with

4436
00:58:15,510 --> 00:58:16,845
batteries to, you know

4437
00:58:16,845 --> 00:58:17,612
, weight

4438
00:58:17,612 --> 00:58:17,946
ratios and become an issue, I'm

4439
00:58:17,946 --> 00:58:18,980
sure at

4440
00:58:18,980 --> 00:58:19,547
some point

4441
00:58:19,547 --> 00:58:19,881
. So

4442
00:58:19,881 --> 00:58:20,480
, yeah

4443
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:20,415
,

4444
00:58:20,415 --> 00:58:21,716
thank you

4445
00:58:21,716 --> 00:58:21,892
. Yeah. Yeah

4446
00:58:21,892 --> 00:58:22,450
, one

4447
00:58:22,450 --> 00:58:23,585
question I have on the

4448
00:58:23,585 --> 00:58:24,318
, the

4449
00:58:24,318 --> 00:58:24,719
batteries. I mean

4450
00:58:24,719 --> 00:58:25,620
, your

4451
00:58:25,620 --> 00:58:26,388
nice

4452
00:58:26,388 --> 00:58:26,688
graphs I I appreciate that, but

4453
00:58:26,688 --> 00:58:26,954
like

4454
00:58:26,954 --> 00:58:27,355
if you

4455
00:58:27,355 --> 00:58:28,900
had 3

4456
00:58:28,900 --> 00:58:28,423
or

4457
00:58:28,423 --> 00:58:29,357
4

4458
00:58:29,357 --> 00:58:29,691
generators and when it

4459
00:58:29,691 --> 00:58:30,124
starts

4460
00:58:30,124 --> 00:58:30,492
getting down

4461
00:58:30,492 --> 00:58:30,792
, you just

4462
00:58:30,792 --> 00:58:31,250
kick one

4463
00:58:31,250 --> 00:58:31,358
on

4464
00:58:31,358 --> 00:58:32,270
. If you

4465
00:58:32,270 --> 00:58:32,394
still need more

4466
00:58:32,394 --> 00:58:32,694
, you

4467
00:58:32,694 --> 00:58:33,228
kick

4468
00:58:33,228 --> 00:58:33,662
the second

4469
00:58:33,662 --> 00:58:34,128
one

4470
00:58:34,128 --> 00:58:34,429
and maybe

4471
00:58:34,429 --> 00:58:34,696
the

4472
00:58:34,696 --> 00:58:35,764
3rd

4473
00:58:35,764 --> 00:58:37,298
1, so you're

4474
00:58:37,298 --> 00:58:37,798
just still

4475
00:58:37,798 --> 00:58:38,333
using

4476
00:58:38,333 --> 00:58:38,799
the battery

4477
00:58:38,799 --> 00:58:39,200
, but

4478
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:39,534
you're

4479
00:58:39,534 --> 00:58:40,000
adding

4480
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:40,335
the generator to

4481
00:58:40,335 --> 00:58:40,569
get

4482
00:58:40,569 --> 00:58:41,436
the

4483
00:58:41,436 --> 00:58:41,970
electricity on it, that's right

4484
00:58:41,970 --> 00:58:42,304
? Yeah, that's

4485
00:58:42,304 --> 00:58:42,571
correct

4486
00:58:42,571 --> 00:58:43,472
. Yeah

4487
00:58:43,472 --> 00:58:43,739
,

4488
00:58:43,739 --> 00:58:44,506
yeah

4489
00:58:44,506 --> 00:58:45,700
Yeah, yeah yeah. Yeah, you

4490
00:58:45,700 --> 00:58:46,740
you, you know

4491
00:58:46,740 --> 00:58:46,308
, you'd

4492
00:58:46,308 --> 00:58:46,474
set

4493
00:58:46,474 --> 00:58:46,908
up

4494
00:58:46,908 --> 00:58:47,209
logic in

4495
00:58:47,209 --> 00:58:48,343
the

4496
00:58:48,343 --> 00:58:48,710
system

4497
00:58:48,710 --> 00:58:48,870
to say, ok

4498
00:58:48,870 --> 00:58:49,211
,

4499
00:58:49,211 --> 00:58:49,511
when we

4500
00:58:49,511 --> 00:58:51,511
get to

4501
00:58:51,647 --> 00:58:52,781
40% and we have

4502
00:58:52,781 --> 00:58:53,150
whatever

4503
00:58:53,150 --> 00:58:53,481
, 12

4504
00:58:53,481 --> 00:58:53,782
runs left in

4505
00:58:53,782 --> 00:58:54,820
the

4506
00:58:54,820 --> 00:58:55,351
day

4507
00:58:55,351 --> 00:58:56,840
. We're going to kick the

4508
00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:56,418
batteries on to make sure we

4509
00:58:56,418 --> 00:58:57,485
don't

4510
00:58:57,485 --> 00:58:57,820
drop

4511
00:58:57,820 --> 00:58:58,119
to 2%

4512
00:58:58,119 --> 00:58:58,387
, something

4513
00:58:58,387 --> 00:58:59,554
like

4514
00:58:59,554 --> 00:58:59,855
that, that can

4515
00:58:59,855 --> 00:59:00,389
all be

4516
00:59:00,389 --> 00:59:00,889
built into

4517
00:59:00,889 --> 00:59:01,690
the logic

4518
00:59:01,690 --> 00:59:02,570
and

4519
00:59:02,570 --> 00:59:02,391
on

4520
00:59:02,391 --> 00:59:03,125
the

4521
00:59:03,125 --> 00:59:03,492
redundancy, I understand, you

4522
00:59:03,492 --> 00:59:04,259
know, 2

4523
00:59:04,259 --> 00:59:04,593
or

4524
00:59:04,593 --> 00:59:05,160
3

4525
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:05,461
generators

4526
00:59:05,461 --> 00:59:06,270
, 4

4527
00:59:06,270 --> 00:59:06,495
generators

4528
00:59:06,495 --> 00:59:06,895
there

4529
00:59:06,895 --> 00:59:07,296
, but

4530
00:59:07,296 --> 00:59:07,930
the

4531
00:59:07,930 --> 00:59:08,730
batteries

4532
00:59:08,730 --> 00:59:09,980
to redundancy

4533
00:59:09,980 --> 00:59:10,832
on that

4534
00:59:10,832 --> 00:59:11,100
they're complicated enough that

4535
00:59:11,100 --> 00:59:11,599
they

4536
00:59:11,599 --> 00:59:11,900
can figure out

4537
00:59:11,900 --> 00:59:12,434
what to do.

4538
00:59:12,434 --> 00:59:13,350
I mean, you

4539
00:59:13,350 --> 00:59:13,203
know more about

4540
00:59:13,203 --> 00:59:13,535
the

4541
00:59:13,535 --> 00:59:13,869
batteries

4542
00:59:13,869 --> 00:59:14,270
than I

4543
00:59:14,270 --> 00:59:14,870
do

4544
00:59:14,870 --> 00:59:15,271
, so yeah

4545
00:59:15,271 --> 00:59:15,604
,

4546
00:59:15,604 --> 00:59:16,500
I'm not

4547
00:59:16,500 --> 00:59:16,538
a battery

4548
00:59:16,538 --> 00:59:16,872
expert. I

4549
00:59:16,872 --> 00:59:17,506
I

4550
00:59:17,506 --> 00:59:18,207
have a little more

4551
00:59:18,207 --> 00:59:18,774
expertise on

4552
00:59:18,774 --> 00:59:19,400
the charging

4553
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:20,709
side

4554
00:59:20,709 --> 00:59:21,110
, but there's

4555
00:59:21,110 --> 00:59:21,978
sale balance

4556
00:59:21,978 --> 00:59:22,711
balancing the

4557
00:59:22,711 --> 00:59:23,979
battery management system

4558
00:59:23,979 --> 00:59:24,647
.

4559
00:59:24,647 --> 00:59:24,879
Takes care of that in

4560
00:59:24,879 --> 00:59:25,247
the

4561
00:59:25,247 --> 00:59:26,915
software

4562
00:59:26,915 --> 00:59:27,483
, um, but

4563
00:59:27,483 --> 00:59:28,451
, uh, yeah

4564
00:59:28,451 --> 00:59:28,884
,

4565
00:59:28,884 --> 00:59:29,151
that's, it

4566
00:59:29,151 --> 00:59:29,518
is

4567
00:59:29,518 --> 00:59:30,953
quite

4568
00:59:30,953 --> 00:59:31,520
complex.

4569
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:31,854
Yep, like you said

4570
00:59:31,854 --> 00:59:32,520
, the

4571
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:33,455
technology keeps changing

4572
00:59:33,455 --> 00:59:34,323
, so

4573
00:59:34,323 --> 00:59:35,825
thank you very much for your

4574
00:59:35,825 --> 00:59:36,258
expertise to bring to the

4575
00:59:36,258 --> 00:59:36,792
committee. I

4576
00:59:36,792 --> 00:59:36,957
appreciate that

4577
00:59:36,957 --> 00:59:37,292
.

4578
00:59:37,292 --> 00:59:38,494
Thank you

4579
00:59:38,494 --> 00:59:38,928
. Allen, do you want

4580
00:59:38,928 --> 00:59:39,829
to comment

4581
00:59:39,829 --> 00:59:40,896
at

4582
00:59:40,896 --> 00:59:42,896
all or

4583
00:59:44,867 --> 00:59:45,200
Yes

4584
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:45,568
,

4585
00:59:45,568 --> 00:59:46,869
thanks

4586
00:59:46,869 --> 00:59:47,136
for taking the

4587
00:59:47,136 --> 00:59:47,736
time

4588
00:59:47,736 --> 00:59:49,672
today to hear us

4589
00:59:49,672 --> 00:59:50,390
. Um

4590
00:59:50,390 --> 00:59:50,339
, I guess

4591
00:59:50,339 --> 00:59:51,340
the

4592
00:59:51,340 --> 00:59:51,974
main

4593
00:59:51,974 --> 00:59:52,408
thing would be

4594
00:59:52,408 --> 00:59:52,842
the

4595
00:59:52,842 --> 00:59:53,910
futureproofing

4596
00:59:53,910 --> 00:59:54,210
and

4597
00:59:54,210 --> 00:59:55,711
you

4598
00:59:55,711 --> 00:59:56,478
making

4599
00:59:56,478 --> 00:59:56,645
decisions regarding a new

4600
00:59:56,645 --> 00:59:56,879
ferry

4601
00:59:56,879 --> 00:59:58,114
if

4602
00:59:58,114 --> 00:59:58,848
we

4603
00:59:58,848 --> 00:59:59,182
are indeed

4604
00:59:59,182 --> 01:00:00,116
getting

4605
01:00:00,116 --> 01:00:01,116
a

4606
01:00:01,116 --> 01:00:01,584
new

4607
01:00:01,584 --> 01:00:02,819
bigger

4608
01:00:02,819 --> 01:00:03,386
homo cars

4609
01:00:03,386 --> 01:00:03,786
, more

4610
01:00:03,786 --> 01:00:04,119
people,

4611
01:00:04,119 --> 01:00:05,880
larger

4612
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:05,688
. Um

4613
01:00:05,688 --> 01:00:07,124
we just

4614
01:00:07,124 --> 01:00:07,724
need to keep

4615
01:00:07,724 --> 01:00:08,157
in mind that it

4616
01:00:08,157 --> 01:00:09,859
is affecting

4617
01:00:09,859 --> 01:00:10,593
a

4618
01:00:10,593 --> 01:00:11,794
system

4619
01:00:11,794 --> 01:00:12,729
that

4620
01:00:12,729 --> 01:00:14,631
moves people to and

4621
01:00:14,631 --> 01:00:15,310
from Guimas and

4622
01:00:15,310 --> 01:00:15,498
that um if

4623
01:00:15,498 --> 01:00:17,498
we're gonna

4624
01:00:18,501 --> 01:00:18,801
. Discuss a parking

4625
01:00:18,801 --> 01:00:20,801
lot

4626
01:00:20,836 --> 01:00:21,437
that

4627
01:00:21,437 --> 01:00:23,437
accommodates, you know

4628
01:00:23,473 --> 01:00:23,807
50% of what we

4629
01:00:23,807 --> 01:00:25,240
have now

4630
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:25,742
We need

4631
01:00:25,742 --> 01:00:27,177
to keep that in

4632
01:00:27,177 --> 01:00:27,644
mind so that

4633
01:00:27,644 --> 01:00:28,445
we're not

4634
01:00:28,445 --> 01:00:29,512
designing things

4635
01:00:29,512 --> 01:00:30,313
on

4636
01:00:30,313 --> 01:00:30,614
the system that

4637
01:00:30,614 --> 01:00:31,140
won't

4638
01:00:31,140 --> 01:00:32,849
accommodate

4639
01:00:32,849 --> 01:00:34,170
a desire

4640
01:00:34,170 --> 01:00:34,351
or

4641
01:00:34,351 --> 01:00:34,651
a

4642
01:00:34,651 --> 01:00:35,285
plan

4643
01:00:35,285 --> 01:00:36,820
going forward. So

4644
01:00:36,820 --> 01:00:37,187
if we're

4645
01:00:37,187 --> 01:00:38,788
looking

4646
01:00:38,788 --> 01:00:40,788
at aprons

4647
01:00:40,923 --> 01:00:41,557
, um, doc

4648
01:00:41,557 --> 01:00:42,125
dolphins, all that type of

4649
01:00:42,125 --> 01:00:43,126
thing. We need to

4650
01:00:43,126 --> 01:00:43,660
make

4651
01:00:43,660 --> 01:00:44,127
sure

4652
01:00:44,127 --> 01:00:44,494
that with

4653
01:00:44,494 --> 01:00:45,495
our

4654
01:00:45,495 --> 01:00:46,262
current

4655
01:00:46,262 --> 01:00:47,630
proposal

4656
01:00:47,630 --> 01:00:48,231
here

4657
01:00:48,231 --> 01:00:48,998
or idea

4658
01:00:48,998 --> 01:00:49,866
that

4659
01:00:49,866 --> 01:00:50,633
we're

4660
01:00:50,633 --> 01:00:51,340
accommodating an

4661
01:00:51,340 --> 01:00:51,501
old

4662
01:00:51,501 --> 01:00:52,401
ferry

4663
01:00:52,401 --> 01:00:53,700
that's 40

4664
01:00:53,700 --> 01:00:53,570
years

4665
01:00:53,570 --> 01:00:54,738
old and

4666
01:00:54,738 --> 01:00:56,600
that it

4667
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:58,800
uh, anything we do to

4668
01:00:58,800 --> 01:00:58,642
the

4669
01:00:58,642 --> 01:00:59,410
system

4670
01:00:59,410 --> 01:00:59,610
is

4671
01:00:59,610 --> 01:01:00,420
uh open

4672
01:01:00,420 --> 01:01:00,577
to

4673
01:01:00,577 --> 01:01:01,780
change and

4674
01:01:01,780 --> 01:01:01,712
that

4675
01:01:01,712 --> 01:01:02,512
new ferry coming on

4676
01:01:02,512 --> 01:01:03,780
It

4677
01:01:03,780 --> 01:01:04,214
accommodates both at the same

4678
01:01:04,214 --> 01:01:05,949
time, so we're

4679
01:01:05,949 --> 01:01:06,216
not

4680
01:01:06,216 --> 01:01:06,750
obsoleting

4681
01:01:06,750 --> 01:01:08,385
our, our idea in

4682
01:01:08,385 --> 01:01:09,860
the

4683
01:01:09,860 --> 01:01:09,353
future or

4684
01:01:09,353 --> 01:01:10,530
um

4685
01:01:10,530 --> 01:01:11,320
um

4686
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,257
taking anything away from

4687
01:01:13,257 --> 01:01:14,858
the current system, so if

4688
01:01:14,858 --> 01:01:15,192
sizes

4689
01:01:15,192 --> 01:01:16,693
and

4690
01:01:16,693 --> 01:01:16,927
shapes

4691
01:01:16,927 --> 01:01:17,594
and

4692
01:01:17,594 --> 01:01:17,928
and throughput

4693
01:01:17,928 --> 01:01:19,296
if we're

4694
01:01:19,296 --> 01:01:19,930
talking about a

4695
01:01:19,930 --> 01:01:21,732
schedule change

4696
01:01:21,732 --> 01:01:22,990
, reducing

4697
01:01:22,990 --> 01:01:22,633
uh

4698
01:01:22,633 --> 01:01:23,800
ferry service

4699
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:24,168
, uh, that

4700
01:01:24,168 --> 01:01:25,200
kind of

4701
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:25,869
goes against

4702
01:01:25,869 --> 01:01:26,637
a bigger

4703
01:01:26,637 --> 01:01:27,137
, larger

4704
01:01:27,137 --> 01:01:27,437
,

4705
01:01:27,437 --> 01:01:28,205
more

4706
01:01:28,205 --> 01:01:28,906
efficient

4707
01:01:28,906 --> 01:01:30,840
ferry

4708
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:31,141
. I mean we

4709
01:01:31,141 --> 01:01:31,609
can

4710
01:01:31,609 --> 01:01:32,810
get into

4711
01:01:32,810 --> 01:01:33,760
fairs

4712
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:33,711
even

4713
01:01:33,711 --> 01:01:35,780
if

4714
01:01:35,780 --> 01:01:35,279
we're experiencing

4715
01:01:35,279 --> 01:01:35,746
a

4716
01:01:35,746 --> 01:01:37,746
loss in

4717
01:01:37,748 --> 01:01:38,382
that growth of why we need a

4718
01:01:38,382 --> 01:01:39,650
bigger ferry or a

4719
01:01:39,650 --> 01:01:40,350
more

4720
01:01:40,350 --> 01:01:41,185
efficient ferry

4721
01:01:41,185 --> 01:01:42,520
, um, and we

4722
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:42,519
don't have the

4723
01:01:42,519 --> 01:01:42,753
ridership

4724
01:01:42,753 --> 01:01:44,155
to

4725
01:01:44,155 --> 01:01:44,755
support it

4726
01:01:44,755 --> 01:01:45,220
. It

4727
01:01:45,220 --> 01:01:45,722
becomes

4728
01:01:45,722 --> 01:01:46,257
difficult to go out and

4729
01:01:46,257 --> 01:01:46,924
get

4730
01:01:46,924 --> 01:01:48,920
funding that

4731
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:48,826
we're needing to

4732
01:01:48,826 --> 01:01:49,427
,

4733
01:01:49,427 --> 01:01:49,860
uh, you know

4734
01:01:49,860 --> 01:01:50,194
, funders and

4735
01:01:50,194 --> 01:01:50,828
saying

4736
01:01:50,828 --> 01:01:51,161
, hey, we

4737
01:01:51,161 --> 01:01:51,528
need

4738
01:01:51,528 --> 01:01:52,296
a

4739
01:01:52,296 --> 01:01:52,629
new

4740
01:01:52,629 --> 01:01:53,497
ferry

4741
01:01:53,497 --> 01:01:54,980
, and yet

4742
01:01:54,980 --> 01:01:54,432
we don't have

4743
01:01:54,432 --> 01:01:54,832
the

4744
01:01:54,832 --> 01:01:55,299
use

4745
01:01:55,299 --> 01:01:55,999
or

4746
01:01:55,999 --> 01:01:56,334
um we're doing

4747
01:01:56,334 --> 01:01:57,101
other

4748
01:01:57,101 --> 01:01:57,902
things within

4749
01:01:57,902 --> 01:01:58,536
the

4750
01:01:58,536 --> 01:01:59,402
system to

4751
01:01:59,402 --> 01:01:59,670
, uh

4752
01:01:59,670 --> 01:02:00,338
I

4753
01:02:00,338 --> 01:02:01,105
guess my marketing

4754
01:02:01,105 --> 01:02:01,472
.

4755
01:02:01,472 --> 01:02:02,273
Background

4756
01:02:02,273 --> 01:02:02,740
we've

4757
01:02:02,740 --> 01:02:03,875
got to sell

4758
01:02:03,875 --> 01:02:04,208
it

4759
01:02:04,208 --> 01:02:05,410
and so

4760
01:02:05,410 --> 01:02:07,440
uh we've got to keep all

4761
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:07,311
those elements in mind on

4762
01:02:07,311 --> 01:02:07,912
the

4763
01:02:07,912 --> 01:02:08,746
system and make

4764
01:02:08,746 --> 01:02:09,113
sure

4765
01:02:09,113 --> 01:02:09,781
that we're

4766
01:02:09,781 --> 01:02:10,782
planning for the future

4767
01:02:10,782 --> 01:02:11,150
if this

4768
01:02:11,150 --> 01:02:11,348
is

4769
01:02:11,348 --> 01:02:11,882
the way

4770
01:02:11,882 --> 01:02:12,417
we're going to do it

4771
01:02:12,417 --> 01:02:13,251
because this is

4772
01:02:13,251 --> 01:02:13,717
an

4773
01:02:13,717 --> 01:02:14,285
expensive

4774
01:02:14,285 --> 01:02:16,220
endeavor, so

4775
01:02:16,220 --> 01:02:17,555
. Ok

4776
01:02:17,555 --> 01:02:17,922
, any questions

4777
01:02:17,922 --> 01:02:19,922
for Alan

4778
01:02:24,462 --> 01:02:25,330
? I forgot to mention

4779
01:02:25,330 --> 01:02:26,965
one thing that I found useful

4780
01:02:26,965 --> 01:02:27,365
looking at this

4781
01:02:27,365 --> 01:02:28,833
graph again

4782
01:02:28,833 --> 01:02:29,199
. If

4783
01:02:29,199 --> 01:02:29,968
you

4784
01:02:29,968 --> 01:02:30,235
think about technology, you

4785
01:02:30,235 --> 01:02:31,202
have

4786
01:02:31,202 --> 01:02:31,769
some

4787
01:02:31,769 --> 01:02:32,236
good questions along

4788
01:02:32,236 --> 01:02:33,738
these lines

4789
01:02:33,738 --> 01:02:34,338
, you know, what

4790
01:02:34,338 --> 01:02:35,540
happens when the

4791
01:02:35,540 --> 01:02:35,694
battery

4792
01:02:35,694 --> 01:02:36,474
is

4793
01:02:36,474 --> 01:02:36,630
getting low and so on and

4794
01:02:36,630 --> 01:02:36,941
so

4795
01:02:36,941 --> 01:02:38,343
forth

4796
01:02:38,343 --> 01:02:38,500
. If you look at this

4797
01:02:38,500 --> 01:02:39,770
,

4798
01:02:39,770 --> 01:02:40,311
let's just look at this

4799
01:02:40,311 --> 01:02:40,845
top

4800
01:02:40,845 --> 01:02:41,446
graph

4801
01:02:41,446 --> 01:02:42,714
. Let's

4802
01:02:42,714 --> 01:02:43,181
say

4803
01:02:43,181 --> 01:02:43,681
batteries

4804
01:02:43,681 --> 01:02:43,949
have

4805
01:02:43,949 --> 01:02:44,783
50%

4806
01:02:44,783 --> 01:02:45,383
more

4807
01:02:45,383 --> 01:02:45,683
capacity 4 years from

4808
01:02:45,683 --> 01:02:47,252
now

4809
01:02:47,252 --> 01:02:47,585
. Then what we'd be looking

4810
01:02:47,585 --> 01:02:49,187
at today

4811
01:02:49,187 --> 01:02:49,621
. If

4812
01:02:49,621 --> 01:02:50,221
you just take that

4813
01:02:50,221 --> 01:02:51,289
red line, well, I

4814
01:02:51,289 --> 01:02:51,890
guess it's

4815
01:02:51,890 --> 01:02:52,190
better to look at the

4816
01:02:52,190 --> 01:02:52,691
bottom

4817
01:02:52,691 --> 01:02:54,920
one and move

4818
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:54,358
it up

4819
01:02:54,358 --> 01:02:54,519
. Let's

4820
01:02:54,519 --> 01:02:54,758
say

4821
01:02:54,758 --> 01:02:55,126
it's

4822
01:02:55,126 --> 01:02:56,560
got another

4823
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:56,795
. 300

4824
01:02:56,795 --> 01:02:58,330
or

4825
01:02:58,330 --> 01:02:58,697
400

4826
01:02:58,697 --> 01:03:00,697
kilowatt

4827
01:03:00,932 --> 01:03:01,990
The effect on

4828
01:03:01,990 --> 01:03:01,633
these

4829
01:03:01,633 --> 01:03:02,701
lines is that it

4830
01:03:02,701 --> 01:03:03,334
just moves

4831
01:03:03,334 --> 01:03:03,869
them up. In other words, toward

4832
01:03:03,869 --> 01:03:05,370
the end of the day

4833
01:03:05,370 --> 01:03:05,604
, if the

4834
01:03:05,604 --> 01:03:05,871
capacity of the

4835
01:03:05,871 --> 01:03:06,238
batteries

4836
01:03:06,238 --> 01:03:07,238
improved

4837
01:03:07,238 --> 01:03:07,673
enough in the next 3

4838
01:03:07,673 --> 01:03:07,939
or 4 years

4839
01:03:07,939 --> 01:03:08,473
, it

4840
01:03:08,473 --> 01:03:09,741
would run out at

4841
01:03:09,741 --> 01:03:10,750
the end of the day

4842
01:03:10,750 --> 01:03:10,475
. So that's

4843
01:03:10,475 --> 01:03:12,177
one way to

4844
01:03:12,177 --> 01:03:13,111
look

4845
01:03:13,111 --> 01:03:15,790
at technology

4846
01:03:15,790 --> 01:03:15,380
for electrification with these

4847
01:03:15,380 --> 01:03:16,480
graphs

4848
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,480
, that is, if

4849
01:03:18,517 --> 01:03:19,384
there is

4850
01:03:19,384 --> 01:03:20,385
more capacity in batteries

4851
01:03:20,385 --> 01:03:21,190
,

4852
01:03:21,190 --> 01:03:21,587
that red line just

4853
01:03:21,587 --> 01:03:21,748
goes up

4854
01:03:21,748 --> 01:03:22,200
.

4855
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,880
Another

4856
01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:23,822
thing is if the

4857
01:03:23,822 --> 01:03:25,657
amount

4858
01:03:25,657 --> 01:03:26,240
of amps that you could push

4859
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:27,692
down the

4860
01:03:27,692 --> 01:03:28,126
line to, to

4861
01:03:28,126 --> 01:03:28,727
charge,

4862
01:03:28,727 --> 01:03:30,161
that just means these

4863
01:03:30,161 --> 01:03:30,429
red lines

4864
01:03:30,429 --> 01:03:30,762
or

4865
01:03:30,762 --> 01:03:32,131
these

4866
01:03:32,131 --> 01:03:32,464
little jags that go

4867
01:03:32,464 --> 01:03:33,132
up

4868
01:03:33,132 --> 01:03:34,566
are

4869
01:03:34,566 --> 01:03:34,867
steeper. So you can kind

4870
01:03:34,867 --> 01:03:35,234
of

4871
01:03:35,234 --> 01:03:37,100
visualize

4872
01:03:37,100 --> 01:03:37,303
the effect of some of

4873
01:03:37,303 --> 01:03:38,803
these

4874
01:03:38,803 --> 01:03:39,672
technology changes by

4875
01:03:39,672 --> 01:03:41,473
just moving this graph up and

4876
01:03:41,473 --> 01:03:41,974
down or changing the slope of

4877
01:03:41,974 --> 01:03:43,750
some of the lines

4878
01:03:43,750 --> 01:03:43,475
. I

4879
01:03:43,475 --> 01:03:43,976
found that

4880
01:03:43,976 --> 01:03:44,410
helpful to

4881
01:03:44,410 --> 01:03:45,411
think about

4882
01:03:45,411 --> 01:03:46,245
the

4883
01:03:46,245 --> 01:03:46,712
impact of technology

4884
01:03:46,712 --> 01:03:47,613
. And

4885
01:03:47,613 --> 01:03:48,380
one

4886
01:03:48,380 --> 01:03:48,848
last comment I want to make is

4887
01:03:48,848 --> 01:03:50,683
I just want

4888
01:03:50,683 --> 01:03:50,983
to say

4889
01:03:50,983 --> 01:03:52,830
in all

4890
01:03:52,830 --> 01:03:52,384
of

4891
01:03:52,384 --> 01:03:53,285
our

4892
01:03:53,285 --> 01:03:54,553
meetings, I guess we had 8

4893
01:03:54,553 --> 01:03:55,200
,

4894
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,489
I think, um

4895
01:03:56,489 --> 01:03:56,822
you

4896
01:03:56,822 --> 01:03:57,623
know, your

4897
01:03:57,623 --> 01:03:58,924
people, we're there

4898
01:03:58,924 --> 01:03:59,830
. County

4899
01:03:59,830 --> 01:03:59,492
was

4900
01:03:59,492 --> 01:03:59,892
there. Rachel

4901
01:03:59,892 --> 01:04:00,192
was always there.

4902
01:04:00,192 --> 01:04:01,527
Marie

4903
01:04:01,527 --> 01:04:01,827
was there many

4904
01:04:01,827 --> 01:04:02,161
times

4905
01:04:02,161 --> 01:04:04,630
, and

4906
01:04:04,630 --> 01:04:04,223
other people helping us. I

4907
01:04:04,223 --> 01:04:04,563
just

4908
01:04:04,563 --> 01:04:05,798
want to

4909
01:04:05,798 --> 01:04:06,132
0.1 thing out

4910
01:04:06,132 --> 01:04:07,330
cause

4911
01:04:07,330 --> 01:04:07,266
it's uh I think it's

4912
01:04:07,266 --> 01:04:08,334
very

4913
01:04:08,334 --> 01:04:08,634
important

4914
01:04:08,634 --> 01:04:09,335
. You're

4915
01:04:09,335 --> 01:04:10,402
getting

4916
01:04:10,402 --> 01:04:11,904
an

4917
01:04:11,904 --> 01:04:12,638
independent

4918
01:04:12,638 --> 01:04:13,873
citizen-based

4919
01:04:13,873 --> 01:04:15,174
recommendation here, and I

4920
01:04:15,174 --> 01:04:15,875
really compliment

4921
01:04:15,875 --> 01:04:16,709
especially

4922
01:04:16,709 --> 01:04:17,477
Rachel, that

4923
01:04:17,477 --> 01:04:18,100
no

4924
01:04:18,100 --> 01:04:19,445
, at no time

4925
01:04:19,445 --> 01:04:20,120
were redirected in

4926
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:21,948
some

4927
01:04:21,948 --> 01:04:22,615
direction or

4928
01:04:22,615 --> 01:04:24,250
corrected

4929
01:04:24,250 --> 01:04:25,510
or

4930
01:04:25,510 --> 01:04:25,884
encouraged to take

4931
01:04:25,884 --> 01:04:26,252
a

4932
01:04:26,252 --> 01:04:26,986
particular

4933
01:04:26,986 --> 01:04:27,420
point of view. They were there

4934
01:04:27,420 --> 01:04:28,355
to help us

4935
01:04:28,355 --> 01:04:28,688
, to

4936
01:04:28,688 --> 01:04:29,121
give us

4937
01:04:29,121 --> 01:04:29,422
background, to

4938
01:04:29,422 --> 01:04:30,356
give

4939
01:04:30,356 --> 01:04:31,423
us

4940
01:04:31,423 --> 01:04:32,580
information, and I thought that

4941
01:04:32,580 --> 01:04:33,192
was very

4942
01:04:33,192 --> 01:04:33,793
I

4943
01:04:33,793 --> 01:04:34,127
took some discipline

4944
01:04:34,127 --> 01:04:35,295
I think

4945
01:04:35,295 --> 01:04:35,828
, because I, I'm sure

4946
01:04:35,828 --> 01:04:37,630
they all have their

4947
01:04:37,630 --> 01:04:37,363
own

4948
01:04:37,363 --> 01:04:38,198
ideas

4949
01:04:38,198 --> 01:04:38,565
,

4950
01:04:38,565 --> 01:04:39,765
but the

4951
01:04:39,765 --> 01:04:40,500
, the 9

4952
01:04:40,500 --> 01:04:40,733
of us on

4953
01:04:40,733 --> 01:04:41,901
the

4954
01:04:41,901 --> 01:04:42,302
tag

4955
01:04:42,302 --> 01:04:42,535
This

4956
01:04:42,535 --> 01:04:42,902
is

4957
01:04:42,902 --> 01:04:43,503
our

4958
01:04:43,503 --> 01:04:44,704
thoughts without

4959
01:04:44,704 --> 01:04:45,400
having been influenced by

4960
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:45,305
the

4961
01:04:45,305 --> 01:04:46,306
county

4962
01:04:46,306 --> 01:04:46,706
, and I

4963
01:04:46,706 --> 01:04:47,730
think

4964
01:04:47,730 --> 01:04:47,807
that's

4965
01:04:47,807 --> 01:04:49,308
important to point out

4966
01:04:49,308 --> 01:04:49,609
. Thank

4967
01:04:49,609 --> 01:04:50,910
you

4968
01:04:50,910 --> 01:04:51,243
. Anything else

4969
01:04:51,243 --> 01:04:51,878
? Commission

4970
01:04:51,878 --> 01:04:52,178
Burns, any other thoughts on

4971
01:04:52,178 --> 01:04:53,790
this

4972
01:04:53,790 --> 01:04:53,679
? Um

4973
01:04:53,679 --> 01:04:53,880
, just wanted to

4974
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:54,280
ask

4975
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:55,181
Rachel, if

4976
01:04:55,181 --> 01:04:55,515
we

4977
01:04:55,515 --> 01:04:55,782
could

4978
01:04:55,782 --> 01:04:56,216
contact pse

4979
01:04:56,216 --> 01:04:56,583
and just ask

4980
01:04:56,583 --> 01:04:57,617
them what

4981
01:04:57,617 --> 01:04:58,318
power is

4982
01:04:58,318 --> 01:04:58,652
available right now

4983
01:04:58,652 --> 01:04:59,520
in that

4984
01:04:59,520 --> 01:04:59,819
area

4985
01:04:59,819 --> 01:05:00,287
. I'd

4986
01:05:00,287 --> 01:05:00,620
appreciate

4987
01:05:00,620 --> 01:05:01,210
that

4988
01:05:01,210 --> 01:05:02,489
information

4989
01:05:02,489 --> 01:05:03,256
. Otherwise, uh,

4990
01:05:03,256 --> 01:05:04,524
that's all the questions I have

4991
01:05:04,524 --> 01:05:04,924
Thank you, Mr

4992
01:05:04,924 --> 01:05:05,258
. Browning,

4993
01:05:05,258 --> 01:05:06,459
anything

4994
01:05:06,459 --> 01:05:06,793
? Well

4995
01:05:06,793 --> 01:05:06,958
, I've

4996
01:05:06,958 --> 01:05:07,393
never

4997
01:05:07,393 --> 01:05:07,627
wanted to be

4998
01:05:07,627 --> 01:05:08,995
the

4999
01:05:08,995 --> 01:05:09,262
person with

5000
01:05:09,262 --> 01:05:10,263
the

5001
01:05:10,263 --> 01:05:11,363
first electric boat out

5002
01:05:11,363 --> 01:05:11,631
there and

5003
01:05:11,631 --> 01:05:12,990
be

5004
01:05:12,990 --> 01:05:13,100
vulnerable

5005
01:05:13,100 --> 01:05:13,767
to

5006
01:05:13,767 --> 01:05:14,670
whatever could potentially go

5007
01:05:14,670 --> 01:05:14,668
wrong

5008
01:05:14,668 --> 01:05:15,869
. So this is

5009
01:05:15,869 --> 01:05:16,470
really

5010
01:05:16,470 --> 01:05:17,137
encouraging for me because I

5011
01:05:17,137 --> 01:05:17,403
don't want to be the head of

5012
01:05:17,403 --> 01:05:18,400
the

5013
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:18,404
parade. I

5014
01:05:18,404 --> 01:05:18,569
think Scout

5015
01:05:18,569 --> 01:05:18,805
needs

5016
01:05:18,805 --> 01:05:19,272
to

5017
01:05:19,272 --> 01:05:20,173
be very smart

5018
01:05:20,173 --> 01:05:20,574
and sit back

5019
01:05:20,574 --> 01:05:21,208
and see

5020
01:05:21,208 --> 01:05:21,708
what's

5021
01:05:21,708 --> 01:05:22,275
working and

5022
01:05:22,275 --> 01:05:22,743
join

5023
01:05:22,743 --> 01:05:23,176
the people who

5024
01:05:23,176 --> 01:05:23,710
are

5025
01:05:23,710 --> 01:05:24,211
successful

5026
01:05:24,211 --> 01:05:25,512
rather than

5027
01:05:25,512 --> 01:05:25,674
be vulnerable

5028
01:05:25,674 --> 01:05:26,113
with

5029
01:05:26,113 --> 01:05:27,314
something. So

5030
01:05:27,314 --> 01:05:27,581
this is

5031
01:05:27,581 --> 01:05:28,215
very

5032
01:05:28,215 --> 01:05:28,549
comforting for me, so

5033
01:05:28,549 --> 01:05:29,550
thank you

5034
01:05:29,550 --> 01:05:30,116
And

5035
01:05:30,116 --> 01:05:31,418
you're lucky to have

5036
01:05:31,418 --> 01:05:32,152
this

5037
01:05:32,152 --> 01:05:32,619
well-built boat. It gets us

5038
01:05:32,619 --> 01:05:33,453
from here to

5039
01:05:33,453 --> 01:05:33,754
there

5040
01:05:33,754 --> 01:05:34,720
. You're

5041
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,390
right. All right, once again, I

5042
01:05:36,390 --> 01:05:36,824
want to thank all the

5043
01:05:36,824 --> 01:05:38,325
committee

5044
01:05:38,325 --> 01:05:39,125
members and all the time and

5045
01:05:39,125 --> 01:05:40,794
effort put into this. I really

5046
01:05:40,794 --> 01:05:41,328
do appreciate that. I think it

5047
01:05:41,328 --> 01:05:42,863
goes to show

5048
01:05:42,863 --> 01:05:43,970
, um, you get

5049
01:05:43,970 --> 01:05:43,797
the

5050
01:05:43,797 --> 01:05:44,980
expertise and the knowledge

5051
01:05:44,980 --> 01:05:45,199
that

5052
01:05:45,199 --> 01:05:45,999
people want to put in time

5053
01:05:45,999 --> 01:05:46,600
you come up with the good

5054
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:47,670
results, and so

5055
01:05:47,670 --> 01:05:47,368
I

5056
01:05:47,368 --> 01:05:48,350
really

5057
01:05:48,350 --> 01:05:48,669
appreciate what you guys were

5058
01:05:48,669 --> 01:05:49,469
able to come up with

5059
01:05:49,469 --> 01:05:49,627
here and

5060
01:05:49,627 --> 01:05:49,837
I

5061
01:05:49,837 --> 01:05:50,304
do

5062
01:05:50,304 --> 01:05:50,704
thank you for

5063
01:05:50,704 --> 01:05:51,705
all the time

5064
01:05:51,705 --> 01:05:52,105
and effort

5065
01:05:52,105 --> 01:05:52,373
bringing and

5066
01:05:52,373 --> 01:05:53,240
also

5067
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:53,974
the support staff

5068
01:05:53,974 --> 01:05:54,208

5069
01:05:54,208 --> 01:05:54,575
the

5070
01:05:54,575 --> 01:05:55,409

5072
01:05:56,176 --> 01:05:56,877
it

5073
01:05:56,877 --> 01:05:57,311
definitely takes time

5074
01:05:57,311 --> 01:05:57,611

5075
01:05:57,611 --> 01:05:57,978

5078
01:05:59,213 --> 01:06:00,714

01:06:00,714 --> 01:06:01,480

5126
01:06:33,140 --> 01:06:34,315
have the good

5127
01:06:34,315 --> 01:06:34,548

01:06:37,352 --> 01:06:37,752
good answers looking at

5132
01:06:37,752 --> 01:06:38,185

5133
01:06:38,185 --> 01:06:38,953
things outside

5134
01:06:38,953 --> 01:06:39,286
the

5135
01:06:39,286 --> 01:06:39,687
box

5136
01:06:39,687 --> 01:06:40,488

put time in

5147
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:46,327

5148
01:06:46,327 --> 01:06:48,327
important

5149
01:06:48,463 --> 01:06:50,463

5157
01:06:56,938 --> 01:06:57,572

5161
01:07:13,255 --> 01:07:15,223
it's

5162
01:07:15,223 --> 01:07:15,557
, it's antiquated

5163
01:07:15,557 --> 01:07:16,191
, it's

5164
01:07:16,191 --> 01:07:16,892
ancient

5165
01:07:16,892 --> 01:07:17,125
barely keeps up in

5166
01:07:17,125 --> 01:07:18,260
the

5167
01:07:18,260 --> 01:07:19,940
springtime. Well, this spring

5168
01:07:19,940 --> 01:07:19,427
was the first time we

5169
01:07:19,427 --> 01:07:20,127
violated

5170
01:07:20,127 --> 01:07:20,428
our permit. Didn't

5171
01:07:20,428 --> 01:07:20,962
violate it

5172
01:07:20,962 --> 01:07:21,363
by much, but

5173
01:07:21,363 --> 01:07:23,980
enough to

5174
01:07:23,980 --> 01:07:23,632
to

5175
01:07:23,632 --> 01:07:23,965
uh uh

5176
01:07:23,965 --> 01:07:24,800
exceed

5177
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:25,300
those

5178
01:07:25,300 --> 01:07:25,701
thresholds this

5179
01:07:25,701 --> 01:07:27,601
spring. So

5180
01:07:27,601 --> 01:07:28,370
, uh, every spring

5181
01:07:28,370 --> 01:07:29,370
this belt press can't keep

5182
01:07:29,370 --> 01:07:29,571

5183
01:07:29,571 --> 01:07:29,938

5186
01:07:31,406 --> 01:07:31,907
bit

5187
01:07:31,907 --> 01:07:32,674
of very

5188
01:07:32,674 --> 01:07:33,475
labor intensive and

5189
01:07:33,475 --> 01:07:33,908
frequent maintenance

5190
01:07:33,908 --> 01:07:34,343

has very

5196
01:07:37,137 --> 01:07:37,512
poor

5197
01:07:37,512 --> 01:07:38,313

5201
01:07:40,983 --> 01:07:41,250
produces about

5202
01:07:41,250 --> 01:07:41,583
or

5203
01:07:41,583 --> 01:07:42,918
reduces

, we

5358
01:11:31,541 --> 01:11:32,675
evaluate each

01:11:32,675 --> 01:11:33,276

5360
01:11:33,276 --> 01:11:33,843

a good look

5364
01:11:35,678 --> 01:11:36,479
at

5365
01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:37,280
mileage and seeing if we

5366
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:37,747

5367
01:11:37,747 --> 01:11:38,181

5370
01:11:39,883 --> 01:11:40,117

5377
01:11:42,785 --> 01:11:43,286

5380
01:11:46,823 --> 01:11:47,457
After evaluating each unit, we

5381
01:11:47,457 --> 01:11:48,525
determine if it makes

5382
01:11:48,525 --> 01:11:48,858
the

5383
01:11:48,858 --> 01:11:49,559
most

5384
01:11:49,559 --> 01:11:49,893
sense to replace it

5385
01:11:49,893 --> 01:11:50,794
or keep

5386
01:11:50,794 --> 01:11:51,761

01:11:52,228 --> 01:11:53,263
some cases

5389
01:11:53,263 --> 01:11:53,629
we keep

5390
01:11:53,629 --> 01:11:53,863

5391
01:11:53,863 --> 01:11:54,597

5394
01:11:57,533 --> 01:11:58,670
we do

5395
01:11:58,670 --> 01:11:58,401

01:12:51,855 --> 01:12:52,323
the salt and all

5472
01:12:52,323 --> 01:12:52,690
the

5473
01:12:52,690 --> 01:12:53,824
chemicals

5474
01:12:53,824 --> 01:12:54,258
, and

5475
01:12:54,258 --> 01:12:55,926
then you'll see

5476
01:12:55,926 --> 01:12:56,293
,

5477
01:12:56,293 --> 01:12:56,727
um, 2010

5478
01:12:56,727 --> 01:12:57,610
and

5479
01:12:57,610 --> 01:12:57,528
2065

5480
01:12:57,528 --> 01:12:58,462
, uh, those

5481
01:12:58,462 --> 01:12:59,960
are

5482
01:12:59,960 --> 01:12:59,330
actually turned in

5483
01:12:59,330 --> 01:12:59,763
as

5484
01:12:59,763 --> 01:13:00,898
departments

5485
01:13:00,898 --> 01:13:01,565
do their budget.

5486
01:13:01,565 --> 01:13:02,700
They need to reduce

5487
01:13:02,700 --> 01:13:03,100
their fleet

5488
01:13:03,100 --> 01:13:03,701
and then

5489
01:13:03,701 --> 01:13:04,402
they decided they no

5490
01:13:04,402 --> 01:13:06,402
longer needed those

5491
01:13:08,205 --> 01:13:09,473
. Um, but

5492
01:13:09,473 --> 01:13:10,700
that

5493
01:13:10,700 --> 01:13:10,170
you guys have

5494
01:13:10,170 --> 01:13:10,507
any

5495
01:13:10,507 --> 01:13:12,143
questions

5496
01:13:12,143 --> 01:13:12,376
? MR. Burns

5497
01:13:12,376 --> 01:13:12,777
, any

5498
01:13:12,777 --> 01:13:14,777
questions

5499
01:13:14,879 --> 01:13:16,447
? No

5500
01:13:16,447 --> 01:13:17,114
, overall, this

5501
01:13:17,114 --> 01:13:17,681
makes sense to me. Look at the

5502
01:13:17,681 --> 01:13:19,681
mileage. I mean

5503
01:13:19,717 --> 01:13:20,451
, the

5504
01:13:20,451 --> 01:13:20,651
interceptors have tons of

5505
01:13:20,651 --> 01:13:21,519
idle

5506
01:13:21,519 --> 01:13:21,853
hours on them. I'm going to

5507
01:13:21,853 --> 01:13:23,321
guess

5508
01:13:23,321 --> 01:13:23,554
the f550s

5509
01:13:23,554 --> 01:13:23,921
are

5510
01:13:23,921 --> 01:13:24,788
probably

5511
01:13:24,788 --> 01:13:25,722
somewhere in the same boat plus

5512
01:13:25,722 --> 01:13:25,957
just time

5513
01:13:25,957 --> 01:13:26,524
of

5514
01:13:26,524 --> 01:13:26,682
sitting. Yeah

5515
01:13:26,682 --> 01:13:27,910
,

5516
01:13:27,910 --> 01:13:27,925
really, yeah

5517
01:13:27,925 --> 01:13:28,325
, pretty

5518
01:13:28,325 --> 01:13:29,600
in the

5519
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:30,361
sand and salt and

5520
01:13:30,361 --> 01:13:30,661
the chemicals

5521
01:13:30,661 --> 01:13:31,162
is

5522
01:13:31,162 --> 01:13:31,429
what kills

5523
01:13:31,429 --> 01:13:31,929
them

5524
01:13:31,929 --> 01:13:32,230
mostly

5525
01:13:32,230 --> 01:13:32,497
. Ok.

5526
01:13:32,497 --> 01:13:32,964
Uh

5527
01:13:32,964 --> 01:13:33,297
, we've done

5528
01:13:33,297 --> 01:13:33,531
a pretty

5529
01:13:33,531 --> 01:13:33,865
good

5530
01:13:33,865 --> 01:13:34,298
job

5531
01:13:34,298 --> 01:13:34,799
last year or

5532
01:13:34,799 --> 01:13:34,961
2 years ago

5533
01:13:34,961 --> 01:13:35,366
,

5534
01:13:35,366 --> 01:13:35,633
we started

5535
01:13:35,633 --> 01:13:37,633
a new

5536
01:13:37,735 --> 01:13:38,202
, uh, process

5537
01:13:38,202 --> 01:13:38,736
after a snow

5538
01:13:38,736 --> 01:13:39,704
season

5539
01:13:39,704 --> 01:13:40,400
of cleaning

5540
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:40,871
and

5541
01:13:40,871 --> 01:13:41,239
, and that seems

5542
01:13:41,239 --> 01:13:41,472
to really

5543
01:13:41,472 --> 01:13:41,773
be

5544
01:13:41,773 --> 01:13:42,473
helping

5545
01:13:42,473 --> 01:13:43,307
our chassis

5546
01:13:43,307 --> 01:13:44,800
and

5547
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:44,409
undercarriage. Ok. Well

5548
01:13:44,409 --> 01:13:44,675
, good,

5549
01:13:44,675 --> 01:13:45,430
good

5550
01:13:45,430 --> 01:13:45,777
. I'm

5551
01:13:45,777 --> 01:13:46,177
, uh, I'm

5552
01:13:46,177 --> 01:13:46,910
glad that's

5553
01:13:46,910 --> 01:13:47,333
going to help uh, extend the

5554
01:13:47,333 --> 01:13:47,979
life of

5555
01:13:47,979 --> 01:13:48,847
the vehicles, but now

5556
01:13:48,847 --> 01:13:49,280
these all make sense to me

5557
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:49,647
.

5558
01:13:49,647 --> 01:13:50,147
Thank you

5559
01:13:50,147 --> 01:13:50,615

at

5567
01:13:55,220 --> 01:13:55,887
the

5568
01:13:55,887 --> 01:13:56,888
appropriate use and

5569
01:13:56,888 --> 01:13:58,220
not just

5570
01:13:58,220 --> 01:13:59,391
just years and miles

5571
01:13:59,391 --> 01:13:59,691
, but kind

5572
01:13:59,691 --> 01:14:00,125
of

5573
01:14:00,125 --> 01:14:01,326
a combination and

5574
01:14:01,326 --> 01:14:01,592
I'm trying

5575
01:14:01,592 --> 01:14:01,960
to

5576
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:02,360

their wheels fall

5598
01:14:17,909 --> 01:14:19,909
off

5599
01:14:20,780 --> 01:14:20,378

bringing me through and going

5608

through and

5609
01:14:28,954 --> 01:14:29,287
evaluating and just

5610
01:14:29,287 --> 01:14:29,754
like you

5611
01:14:29,754 --> 01:14:30,555
did mention all

5612
01:14:30,555 --> 01:14:31,356
of

5613
01:14:31,356 --> 01:14:31,923
these have already been

5614
01:14:31,923 --> 01:14:32,925
replaced or chosen

5615
01:14:32,925 --> 01:14:33,125
not

5616
01:14:33,125 --> 01:14:33,458
to

5617
01:14:33,458 --> 01:14:33,926
replace

5618
01:14:33,926 --> 01:14:35,193
them, correct

5619
01:14:35,193 --> 01:14:35,627
? And the

5620
01:14:35,627 --> 01:14:35,961
way our

5621
01:14:35,961 --> 01:14:36,361
enr

5622
01:14:36,361 --> 01:14:37,763
works is

5623
01:14:37,763 --> 01:14:38,463
the

5624
01:14:38,463 --> 01:14:40,332
department that uses them

5625
01:14:40,332 --> 01:14:40,765
when

5626
01:14:40,765 --> 01:14:41,934
replacement

5627
01:14:41,934 --> 01:14:42,267
vehicle

5628
01:14:42,267 --> 01:14:42,734
comes in,

5629
01:14:42,734 --> 01:14:42,967
then you start

5630
01:14:42,967 --> 01:14:44,269
, we

5631
01:14:44,269 --> 01:14:44,469
start

5632
01:14:44,469 --> 01:14:44,936
taking

5633
01:14:44,936 --> 01:14:45,204
money out of

5634
01:14:45,204 --> 01:14:45,604
their

5635
01:14:45,604 --> 01:14:47,305
department

5636
01:14:47,305 --> 01:14:47,539
yearly operation to buy

5637
01:14:47,539 --> 01:14:48,540
a

5638
01:14:48,540 --> 01:14:49,141
new

5639
01:14:49,141 --> 01:14:49,475
vehicle when this

5640
01:14:49,475 --> 01:14:49,675
one wears

5641
01:14:49,675 --> 01:14:51,143
out

5642
01:14:51,143 --> 01:14:51,744
is this

5643
01:14:51,744 --> 01:14:52,611
, but then there are

5644
01:14:52,611 --> 01:14:53,946
some we just go on the

5645
01:14:53,946 --> 01:14:55,946
maintenance and operation

5646
01:14:55,948 --> 01:14:56,215
which

5647
01:14:56,215 --> 01:14:56,782
are

5648
01:14:56,782 --> 01:14:57,716
generally for

5649
01:14:57,716 --> 01:14:57,950
local

5650
01:14:57,950 --> 01:14:58,138
use

5651
01:14:58,138 --> 01:14:58,884
for

5652
01:14:58,884 --> 01:15:00,920
different departments. Yep, yep

5653
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:01,186
and as budget times are coming

5654
01:15:01,186 --> 01:15:02,254
with

5655
01:15:02,254 --> 01:15:02,721
a lot of

5656
01:15:02,721 --> 01:15:03,321
people are

5657
01:15:03,321 --> 01:15:04,456
realizing they

5658
01:15:04,456 --> 01:15:04,857
, well

5659
01:15:04,857 --> 01:15:05,900
, obviously

5660
01:15:05,900 --> 01:15:05,390
a

5661
01:15:05,390 --> 01:15:07,259
2010

5662
01:15:07,259 --> 01:15:08,193
with 55,000 miles on it

5663
01:15:08,193 --> 01:15:09,270
probably wasn't

5664
01:15:09,270 --> 01:15:09,795
needed, so

5665
01:15:09,795 --> 01:15:10,280
that's why we got rid

5666
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:10,295
of

5667
01:15:10,295 --> 01:15:10,628
that

5668
01:15:10,628 --> 01:15:11,364
one

5669
01:15:11,364 --> 01:15:11,864
. Yeah

5670
01:15:11,864 --> 01:15:12,398
, but that's

5671
01:15:12,398 --> 01:15:12,998

5956
01:19:30,904 --> 01:19:31,904

5957
01:19:31,904 --> 01:19:32,238
cans not near

5961
01:19:33,972 --> 01:19:34,607
affords

5962
01:19:34,607 --> 01:19:35,241
the constant

5963
01:19:35,241 --> 01:19:36,409
opportunity of being

5964
01:19:36,409 --> 01:19:36,676
filled

5965
01:19:36,676 --> 01:19:37,444
by

5966
01:19:37,444 --> 01:19:37,877
someone other than

5967
01:19:37,877 --> 01:19:38,845
those paying

5968
01:19:38,845 --> 01:19:39,779
for

5969
01:19:39,779 --> 01:19:40,647
the service. That

5970
01:19:40,647 --> 01:19:40,947

5972
01:19:41,581 --> 01:19:42,448
, a more

5973
01:19:42,448 --> 01:19:43,349
interesting story

5974
01:19:43,349 --> 01:19:43,716
is that

5975
01:19:43,716 --> 01:19:43,917
we've had

5976
01:19:43,917 --> 01:19:44,918
a

5977
01:19:44,918 --> 01:19:46,286
resident

5978
01:19:46,286 --> 01:19:47,253

5979
01:19:47,253 --> 01:19:47,587

5980
01:19:47,587 --> 01:19:48,421
that has

5981
01:19:48,421 --> 01:19:48,922
been

5982
01:19:48,922 --> 01:19:49,655
circulating

5983
01:19:49,655 --> 01:19:49,990
circulating

5984
01:19:49,990 --> 01:19:50,624
circling

5985
01:19:50,624 --> 01:19:51,240
the lake

5986
01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:51,458
looking

5987
01:19:51,458 --> 01:19:52,580
for

5988
01:19:52,580 --> 01:19:52,559
food. Now

5989
01:19:52,559 --> 01:19:52,892
that so

5990
01:19:52,892 --> 01:19:53,593
many

5991
01:19:53,593 --> 01:19:54,127

5992
01:19:54,127 --> 01:19:54,728

5993
01:19:54,728 --> 01:19:55,610

5994
01:19:55,610 --> 01:19:55,428

5995
01:19:55,428 --> 01:19:55,929

5996
01:19:55,929 --> 01:19:56,363

5997
01:19:56,363 --> 01:19:56,698
cans are

5998
01:19:56,698 --> 01:19:57,300

5999
01:19:57,300 --> 01:19:57,430

6000
01:19:57,430 --> 01:19:58,310

Yogi

6004
01:19:59,599 --> 01:20:00,100

6005
01:20:00,100 --> 01:20:01,101
surprise of one

6018
01:20:08,508 --> 01:20:08,709
overturning the cans

6019
01:20:08,709 --> 01:20:09,750

just

6026
01:20:12,646 --> 01:20:12,980

6028
01:20:13,412 --> 01:20:13,613
concern

6029
01:20:13,613 --> 01:20:13,947
and

6030
01:20:13,947 --> 01:20:14,648
reason

6031
01:20:14,648 --> 01:20:15,480

6034
01:20:16,249 --> 01:20:17,217
restored so

6035
01:20:17,217 --> 01:20:17,384
that residents

6036
01:20:17,384 --> 01:20:17,584
can

6037
01:20:17,584 --> 01:20:17,884
keep

6038
01:20:17,884 --> 01:20:18,385

01:20:22,322 --> 01:20:22,689
as

6047
01:20:22,689 --> 01:20:23,900

6048
01:20:23,900 --> 01:20:23,424
to providing

6049
01:20:23,424 --> 01:20:23,957

6052
01:20:25,250 --> 01:20:25,359
yogi. Can

6053
01:20:25,359 --> 01:20:26,920
you

6054
01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:27,261
all consider

6055
01:20:27,261 --> 01:20:27,493
the danger that

6056
01:20:27,493 --> 01:20:27,928
North

6057
01:20:27,928 --> 01:20:28,328
Shore

01:20:28,729 --> 01:20:29,630
are enduring

6060
01:20:29,630 --> 01:20:29,830
. Is

6061
01:20:29,830 --> 01:20:30,697
it

6062
01:20:30,697 --> 01:20:31,310
just ok because it's our lives

6063
01:20:31,310 --> 01:20:31,497
in

6064
01:20:31,497 --> 01:20:32,633
danger and it's

6065
01:20:32,633 --> 01:20:33,330
not in

6066
01:20:33,330 --> 01:20:33,367
your

6067
01:20:33,367 --> 01:20:33,767
backyard

6068
01:20:33,767 --> 01:20:35,135
, and yes

6069
01:20:35,135 --> 01:20:35,295
, dfw

6070
01:20:35,295 --> 01:20:36,700
is

6071
01:20:36,700 --> 01:20:37,400
called and there is a trap

6072
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:37,537
, but

6073
01:20:37,537 --> 01:20:38,380
I have no

6074
01:20:38,380 --> 01:20:39,673
knowledge as to

6075
01:20:39,673 --> 01:20:39,940
whether Yogi the Bear

6076
01:20:39,940 --> 01:20:40,307
has

6077
01:20:40,307 --> 01:20:40,841

01:21:50,211 --> 01:21:51,579
so-called medicines

6182
01:21:51,579 --> 01:21:51,980
that

6183
01:21:51,980 --> 01:21:52,613

6191
01:21:57,352 --> 01:21:58,286

6192
01:21:58,286 --> 01:21:58,820

01:22:00,454 --> 01:22:00,789
$11 billion

6196
01:22:00,789 --> 01:22:01,389
worth

6197
01:22:01,389 --> 01:22:03,910
of lawsuits

6198
01:22:03,910 --> 01:22:03,256
, but now

6199
01:22:03,256 --> 01:22:03,491
,

6200
01:22:03,491 --> 01:22:03,792
since

6201
01:22:03,792 --> 01:22:04,225
this

6202
01:22:04,225 --> 01:22:05,260
recent

6203
01:22:05,260 --> 01:22:05,427
Supreme Court

deemed

6205
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:06,394
that

01:22:06,394 --> 01:22:06,554
glyphosate can

6207
01:22:06,554 --> 01:22:06,761
be

6208
01:22:06,761 --> 01:22:07,996
used

6209
01:22:07,996 --> 01:22:08,230
with impunity

6210
01:22:08,230 --> 01:22:08,730
and

6211
01:22:08,730 --> 01:22:09,397
ruin

6212
01:22:09,397 --> 01:22:10,398
people's health

6213
01:22:10,398 --> 01:22:10,999

sued

6217
01:22:12,968 --> 01:22:13,435
. All bets

6218
01:22:13,435 --> 01:22:14,690

6219
01:22:14,690 --> 01:22:14,402

6221
01:22:14,702 --> 01:22:15,403
companies

6222
01:22:15,403 --> 01:22:16,537
accountable for all kinds of

6223
01:22:16,537 --> 01:22:16,872
things that do

6224
01:22:16,872 --> 01:22:18,373
us harm

6225
01:22:18,373 --> 01:22:18,740
, for

6227
01:22:19,408 --> 01:22:20,709

6232
01:22:22,844 --> 01:22:23,278
these

6233
01:22:23,278 --> 01:22:23,679
horrific, full

6234
01:22:23,679 --> 01:22:24,346

01:22:54,476 --> 01:22:54,976
that we

6284
01:22:54,976 --> 01:22:55,411
do not

6285
01:22:55,411 --> 01:22:55,711
have

01:22:55,711 --> 01:22:56,110
any

6287
01:22:56,110 --> 01:22:56,312
birds

6288
01:22:56,312 --> 01:22:56,845
to

6289
01:22:56,845 --> 01:22:57,513
worry

6290
01:22:57,513 --> 01:22:57,880
about here in

6291
01:22:57,880 --> 01:22:59,130
the

6292
01:22:59,130 --> 01:22:59,748
Skcache County

6293
01:22:59,748 --> 01:23:00,282
. No

6294
01:23:00,282 --> 01:23:00,950
problem

6295
01:23:00,950 --> 01:23:01,450
installing

6296
01:23:01,450 --> 01:23:01,616
something that

6297
01:23:01,616 --> 01:23:01,983
can

6298
01:23:01,983 --> 01:23:02,284
burst

6299
01:23:02,284 --> 01:23:02,885
into

6300
01:23:02,885 --> 01:23:03,319
difficult

6301
01:23:03,319 --> 01:23:05,319
to

6302
01:23:05,421 --> 01:23:05,590
extinguish fires with to x

6303
01:23:05,590 --> 01:23:06,322
ic

6304
01:23:06,322 --> 01:23:06,922
smoke that will spread for

6305
01:23:06,922 --> 01:23:07,823
miles and damage

6306
01:23:07,823 --> 01:23:08,524
our

6307
01:23:08,524 --> 01:23:09,250
environment, kill birds

6308
01:23:09,250 --> 01:23:10,860
, salmon

6309
01:23:10,860 --> 01:23:11,193
other wildlife

6310
01:23:11,193 --> 01:23:11,627
that apparently

6311
01:23:11,627 --> 01:23:12,661
we shouldn't

6312
01:23:12,661 --> 01:23:13,162
care about

6313
01:23:13,162 --> 01:23:13,529
. It's

6314
01:23:13,529 --> 01:23:14,930
disgusting

6315
01:23:14,930 --> 01:23:15,664
. Greed

6316
01:23:15,664 --> 01:23:16,865
That's

6317
01:23:16,865 --> 01:23:17,300
the

6318
01:23:17,300 --> 01:23:17,566
word for all

6319
01:23:17,566 --> 01:23:19,268
of

6320
01:23:19,268 --> 01:23:19,902
this

6321
01:23:19,902 --> 01:23:20,335
non-accountability, and it is

6322
01:23:20,335 --> 01:23:21,671
what you need

6323
01:23:21,671 --> 01:23:22,204
to consider as

6324
01:23:22,204 --> 01:23:22,672
you consider

6325
01:23:22,672 --> 01:23:24,600
and

6326
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:24,406
reconsider the

6327
01:23:24,406 --> 01:23:24,774
installation

6328
01:23:24,774 --> 01:23:26,309

01:23:26,309 --> 01:23:26,876
lithium battery

6332

01:23:29,512 --> 01:23:29,945
our

6336
01:23:29,945 --> 01:23:31,447
beautiful county

6337
01:23:31,447 --> 01:23:31,714
We had an earthquake near my

6338
01:23:31,714 --> 01:23:32,748
home

6339
01:23:32,748 --> 01:23:33,315
the other night

6340
01:23:33,315 --> 01:23:33,783
. I felt it

6341
01:23:33,783 --> 01:23:35,117
while in my

6342
01:23:35,117 --> 01:23:35,518
easy chair reading,

6343
01:23:35,518 --> 01:23:35,952
and I

6344
01:23:35,952 --> 01:23:36,185
thought

6345
01:23:36,185 --> 01:23:37,353
to

6346
01:23:37,353 --> 01:23:38,121
myself

6347
01:23:38,121 --> 01:23:38,421
, holy

01:23:38,421 --> 01:23:39,755
cow

6349
01:23:39,755 --> 01:23:40,550
! Best units

6350
01:23:40,550 --> 01:23:40,690
can go

6351
01:23:40,690 --> 01:23:42,125
into

6352
01:23:42,125 --> 01:23:42,892

fires

6354
01:23:44,427 --> 01:23:45,270
from

6355
01:23:45,270 --> 01:23:45,395
jostling or many

6356
01:23:45,395 --> 01:23:46,162
other

6357
01:23:46,162 --> 01:23:46,429
reasons

6358
01:23:46,429 --> 01:23:47,630
such

6359
01:23:47,630 --> 01:23:47,930
as overheating

6360
01:23:47,930 --> 01:23:48,598
. Please

6361
01:23:48,598 --> 01:23:48,998
take

6362
01:23:48,998 --> 01:23:49,465
this

6363
01:23:49,465 --> 01:23:50,330
into

6364
01:23:50,330 --> 01:23:50,192

6366
01:23:50,466 --> 01:23:51,267
especially

6367
01:23:51,267 --> 01:23:52,202
the

6368
01:23:52,202 --> 01:23:53,350
non-accountability of

6369
01:23:53,350 --> 01:23:53,670
these

6370
01:23:53,670 --> 01:23:54,700
companies

6371
01:23:54,700 --> 01:23:54,404

of

6378
01:23:58,675 --> 01:23:59,142
a fire

6379
01:23:59,142 --> 01:24:00,243
. There is

6380
01:24:00,243 --> 01:24:00,777
no recourse

6381
01:24:00,777 --> 01:24:01,444
for

6382
01:24:01,444 --> 01:24:02,177
extinguishing the fire

6383
01:24:02,177 --> 01:24:02,646

Entirely put on

brave

6387
01:24:05,181 --> 01:24:05,582
firefighters don't let

6388
01:24:05,582 --> 01:24:06,550
them get

6389
01:24:06,550 --> 01:24:06,916
away

6390
01:24:06,916 --> 01:24:07,117

Exactly

Good morning. My name

I

am

This morning as

I'm also from

Mount Vernon

6412
01:24:31,641 --> 01:24:32,342
. Dear

6413
01:24:32,342 --> 01:24:33,443
commissioners, and this

6414
01:24:33,443 --> 01:24:33,777
is

6415
01:24:33,777 --> 01:24:34,111
from

6420
01:24:37,848 --> 01:24:38,180

01:24:38,982 --> 01:24:40,450

fire

6426
01:24:42,818 --> 01:24:43,320

, California last week

6429
01:24:46,923 --> 01:24:47,658
.

6430
01:24:47,658 --> 01:24:47,925
The incident resulted in

6431
01:24:47,925 --> 01:24:48,292
road

6432
01:24:48,292 --> 01:24:49,693

6433
01:24:49,693 --> 01:24:50,260
a

01:24:50,260 --> 01:24:51,260
shelter in

6435
01:24:51,260 --> 01:24:51,561
place

6436
01:24:51,561 --> 01:24:53,561
order

6437
01:24:54,198 --> 01:24:56,198
. Haxic fumes concerns

6438
01:24:56,699 --> 01:24:58,202
runoff monitoring

6439
01:24:58,202 --> 01:24:58,835
and

6440
01:24:58,835 --> 01:25:00,437
evacuation planning

6441
01:25:00,437 --> 01:25:01,105
. The

6442

Samish

6443
01:25:01,805 --> 01:25:02,973
Island

6444
01:25:02,973 --> 01:25:04,973
Bess is

6445
01:25:05,309 --> 01:25:06,510
uh, is

6446
01:25:06,510 --> 01:25:07,511
substantially larger

6447
01:25:07,511 --> 01:25:07,778
and

6448
01:25:07,778 --> 01:25:09,790
is

6449
01:25:09,790 --> 01:25:10,514
located approximately

6450
01:25:10,514 --> 01:25:10,714
20

6451
01:25:10,714 --> 01:25:11,348
ft

6452
01:25:11,348 --> 01:25:13,284
from my property

6453
01:25:13,284 --> 01:25:13,517
. This incident

6454
01:25:13,517 --> 01:25:14,919
is

6455
01:25:14,919 --> 01:25:15,219
a reminder that

6456
01:25:15,219 --> 01:25:16,487
when

6457
01:25:16,487 --> 01:25:16,954
battery

6458
01:25:16,954 --> 01:25:18,923
failures occur

6459
01:25:18,923 --> 01:25:19,657
, the impacts can

6460
01:25:19,657 --> 01:25:21,570
extend well beyond

6461
01:25:21,570 --> 01:25:21,392
the battery

6462
01:25:21,392 --> 01:25:23,194
itself

6463
01:25:23,194 --> 01:25:23,761
. The

6464
01:25:23,761 --> 01:25:23,961
question isn't

6465
01:25:23,961 --> 01:25:24,295
just

6466
01:25:24,295 --> 01:25:25,363
whether

6467
01:25:25,363 --> 01:25:25,730
something

6468
01:25:25,730 --> 01:25:26,130
is likely

6469
01:25:26,130 --> 01:25:26,530
to

6470
01:25:26,530 --> 01:25:27,665
happen

6471
01:25:27,665 --> 01:25:27,965
. It's

6472
01:25:27,965 --> 01:25:28,265
whether

6473
01:25:28,265 --> 01:25:30,265
the

6474
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:31,234
potential consequences

6475
01:25:31,234 --> 01:25:31,735
are

6476
01:25:31,735 --> 01:25:33,735
worth the risk

6477
01:25:34,137 --> 01:25:34,672
. And

6478
01:25:34,672 --> 01:25:35,138
these

6479
01:25:35,138 --> 01:25:36,807
are

6480
01:25:36,807 --> 01:25:38,807
Ingrid's questions

6481
01:25:38,910 --> 01:25:39,710
. Um

6482
01:25:39,710 --> 01:25:41,212
do we

6483
01:25:41,212 --> 01:25:41,813
have plans in

6484
01:25:41,813 --> 01:25:42,379
place to where

6485
01:25:42,379 --> 01:25:43,548
people are going

6486
01:25:43,548 --> 01:25:44,248

Arlington

6549
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:37,435
. I surfed

6550
01:26:37,435 --> 01:26:37,936
the web to

6551
01:26:37,936 --> 01:26:38,203
see how much our

local

01:26:39,337 --> 01:26:39,905

training

6556
01:26:40,872 --> 01:26:41,773
travel. Nearest

6557
01:26:41,773 --> 01:26:42,107
I

6558
01:26:42,107 --> 01:26:42,374
could

6559
01:26:42,374 --> 01:26:42,641
figure

6560
01:26:42,641 --> 01:26:44,420
out

6561
01:26:44,420 --> 01:26:44,409
in

6562
01:26:44,409 --> 01:26:44,843
2024

6563
01:26:44,843 --> 01:26:45,177

Mount

6565
01:26:46,377 --> 01:26:46,611
Vernon and

6566
01:26:46,611 --> 01:26:46,845
and

6567
01:26:46,845 --> 01:26:47,445
the

6568
01:26:47,445 --> 01:26:49,348

6569
01:26:49,348 --> 01:26:50,820
of

6570
01:26:50,820 --> 01:26:51,183
377,000 something

6571
01:26:51,183 --> 01:26:51,617
. I also

6572
01:26:51,617 --> 01:26:52,500
surfed the web

6573
01:26:52,500 --> 01:26:52,951
to see how

6574
01:26:52,951 --> 01:26:53,385
much

6575
01:26:53,385 --> 01:26:53,719
a value of

6576
01:26:53,719 --> 01:26:55,187
one acre

6577
01:26:55,187 --> 01:26:56,522
of

6578
01:26:56,522 --> 01:26:58,624
Portiscadget property is the

6579
01:26:58,624 --> 01:27:00,125
newest number I could find was

6580
01:27:00,125 --> 01:27:00,392
from

6581
01:27:00,392 --> 01:27:00,993
2014

6582
01:27:00,993 --> 01:27:02,227
. 50 acres

6583
01:27:02,227 --> 01:27:03,228
at

6584
01:27:03,228 --> 01:27:04,529
the 2014

6585
01:27:04,529 --> 01:27:06,529
value of

6586
01:27:07,933 --> 01:27:09,134
$65,898 per acre

6587
01:27:09,134 --> 01:27:09,335
equals

6588
01:27:09,335 --> 01:27:09,835
3

6589
01:27:09,835 --> 01:27:10,235
millions

6590
01:27:10,235 --> 01:27:11,470
some change

6591
01:27:11,470 --> 01:27:12,871
in

6592
01:27:12,871 --> 01:27:13,472
$2014 that property

6593
01:27:13,472 --> 01:27:13,839
would be

6594
01:27:13,839 --> 01:27:14,306
off

6595
01:27:14,306 --> 01:27:15,740
the tax base

6596
01:27:15,740 --> 01:27:15,641
, off the

6597
01:27:15,641 --> 01:27:16,140
port

6598
01:27:16,140 --> 01:27:16,709
would not be

6599
01:27:16,709 --> 01:27:18,310
able to

6600
01:27:18,310 --> 01:27:18,911
. Use it

6601
01:27:18,911 --> 01:27:20,279
like it's supposed to

6602
01:27:20,279 --> 01:27:20,512
be used.

6603
01:27:20,512 --> 01:27:21,113
If

6604
01:27:21,113 --> 01:27:21,379
there's actually a need for

6605
01:27:21,379 --> 01:27:22,948
more

6606
01:27:22,948 --> 01:27:23,449
places for police to train

6607
01:27:23,449 --> 01:27:24,583
let

6608
01:27:24,583 --> 01:27:24,984
anybody

6609
01:27:24,984 --> 01:27:25,284
else build

6610
01:27:25,284 --> 01:27:25,651
it. It

6611
01:27:25,651 --> 01:27:25,851
will

6612
01:27:25,851 --> 01:27:27,186
be

6613
01:27:27,186 --> 01:27:27,453
way cheaper to send our

6614
01:27:27,453 --> 01:27:28,254
law

6615
01:27:28,254 --> 01:27:29,255
, law enforcement to

6616
01:27:29,255 --> 01:27:29,755
someone

6617
01:27:29,755 --> 01:27:31,623
else's cop city

6618
01:27:31,623 --> 01:27:32,391
. The need for a

6619
01:27:32,391 --> 01:27:33,993
new 911

6620
01:27:33,993 --> 01:27:34,759
center

6621
01:27:34,759 --> 01:27:35,270
is real, and

6622
01:27:35,270 --> 01:27:35,995
that

6623
01:27:35,995 --> 01:27:36,562
can

6624
01:27:36,562 --> 01:27:37,290
happen without a

6625
01:27:37,290 --> 01:27:37,296
cop

6626
01:27:37,296 --> 01:27:38,697
city

6627
01:27:38,697 --> 01:27:40,166
. If

6628
01:27:40,166 --> 01:27:40,599
we

6629
01:27:40,599 --> 01:27:41,990
cannot afford to

6630
01:27:41,990 --> 01:27:42,568
fully fund the

6631
01:27:42,568 --> 01:27:43,469
public

6632
01:27:43,469 --> 01:27:43,702
defender's office, we

6633
01:27:43,702 --> 01:27:44,300
certainly

6634
01:27:44,300 --> 01:27:45,370
cannot

6635
01:27:45,370 --> 01:27:45,437
afford a

6636
01:27:45,437 --> 01:27:47,240
cop city

6637
01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:47,807
. The

6638
01:27:47,807 --> 01:27:48,241
constitutional right of due

6639
01:27:48,241 --> 01:27:49,575
process is

6640
01:27:49,575 --> 01:27:50,142
to provide equal

6641
01:27:50,142 --> 01:27:50,510
justice to all

6642
01:27:50,510 --> 01:27:51,977
, so that

6643
01:27:51,977 --> 01:27:52,845
an

6644
01:27:52,845 --> 01:27:54,547
impoverished person receives

6645
01:27:54,547 --> 01:27:55,140
quality legal representation

6646
01:27:55,140 --> 01:27:56,549
and full

6647
01:27:56,549 --> 01:27:56,783
due process

6648
01:27:56,783 --> 01:27:57,183
just as

6649
01:27:57,183 --> 01:27:57,617
good as the

6650
01:27:57,617 --> 01:27:58,484
legal work

6651
01:27:58,484 --> 01:27:59,217
a

6652
01:27:59,217 --> 01:28:00,753
millionaire can buy

6653
01:28:00,753 --> 01:28:01,287
. By not

6654
01:28:01,287 --> 01:28:01,654
fully funding

6655
01:28:01,654 --> 01:28:01,988
public defenders,

6656
01:28:01,988 --> 01:28:02,922
we do

6657
01:28:02,922 --> 01:28:03,221
not

6658
01:28:03,221 --> 01:28:03,622
have

6659
01:28:03,622 --> 01:28:03,990
equal justice

6660
01:28:03,990 --> 01:28:05,324
for all

6661
01:28:05,324 --> 01:28:05,791
. The

6662
01:28:05,791 --> 01:28:07,226
privilege in

6663
01:28:07,226 --> 01:28:07,627
this

6664
01:28:07,627 --> 01:28:07,961
room must

6665
01:28:07,961 --> 01:28:09,762
be noted

6666
01:28:09,762 --> 01:28:10,262
. My guess

6667
01:28:10,262 --> 01:28:10,663
is

6668
01:28:10,663 --> 01:28:12,198
that

6669
01:28:12,198 --> 01:28:12,665
if everyone here was

6670
01:28:12,665 --> 01:28:13,990
arrested for

6671
01:28:13,990 --> 01:28:14,133
a crime

6672
01:28:14,133 --> 01:28:14,834
, we

6673
01:28:14,834 --> 01:28:15,235
would

6674
01:28:15,235 --> 01:28:15,501
all

6675
01:28:15,501 --> 01:28:17,103
hire

6676
01:28:17,103 --> 01:28:17,537
private attorney. We

6677
01:28:17,537 --> 01:28:17,971
are the

6678
01:28:17,971 --> 01:28:18,972
lucky

6679
01:28:18,972 --> 01:28:19,272
ones who

6680
01:28:19,272 --> 01:28:20,390
have

6681
01:28:20,390 --> 01:28:21,107
some finances to use

6682
01:28:21,107 --> 01:28:21,841
to buy us

6683
01:28:21,841 --> 01:28:22,175
the

6684
01:28:22,175 --> 01:28:22,642
best

6685
01:28:22,642 --> 01:28:23,509
due process

6686
01:28:23,509 --> 01:28:24,311
we can get

6687
01:28:24,311 --> 01:28:25,778
Many of

6688
01:28:25,778 --> 01:28:26,212
our neighbors are not

6689
01:28:26,212 --> 01:28:28,212

we

have upheld our

6831
01:30:16,658 --> 01:30:17,792
commitment

6832
01:30:17,792 --> 01:30:18,326
to

6833
01:30:18,326 --> 01:30:18,593
Skagitt County

.

6835
01:30:18,826 --> 01:30:19,193
We

6836
01:30:19,193 --> 01:30:20,295
simply ask

6837
01:30:20,295 --> 01:30:20,595
that the

6838
01:30:20,595 --> 01:30:21,195

6840
01:30:21,596 --> 01:30:22,363
commitment

01:30:22,363 --> 01:30:22,630

01:30:22,630 --> 01:30:23,398
us

6843
01:30:23,398 --> 01:30:24,899

6844
01:30:24,899 --> 01:30:25,466
has

6845
01:30:25,466 --> 01:30:25,899
increasingly has

6846
01:30:25,899 --> 01:30:27,602
become

6847
01:30:27,602 --> 01:30:28,169
increasingly frustrating

6848
01:30:28,169 --> 01:30:29,537
It's not just

6849
01:30:29,537 --> 01:30:30,171
the length

6850
01:30:30,171 --> 01:30:30,605
of

6851
01:30:30,605 --> 01:30:31,439

6852
01:30:31,439 --> 01:30:31,873
, but

6853
01:30:31,873 --> 01:30:32,207
the feeling

6854
01:30:32,207 --> 01:30:32,739
that

6855
01:30:32,739 --> 01:30:33,741
our employees are

6856
01:30:33,741 --> 01:30:34,208
not

6857
01:30:34,208 --> 01:30:34,876
being

6858
01:30:34,876 --> 01:30:35,242
valued

6859
01:30:35,242 --> 01:30:36,110
equally

6860
01:30:36,110 --> 01:30:36,478
. The

6861
01:30:36,478 --> 01:30:37,278
ferry

6862
01:30:37,278 --> 01:30:38,680
employees reached

6863
01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:39,147
an

6864
01:30:39,147 --> 01:30:39,748
agreement

6865
01:30:39,748 --> 01:30:40,615
that included

6866
01:30:40,615 --> 01:30:41,490
a

6867
01:30:41,490 --> 01:30:41,483
4%

6868
01:30:41,483 --> 01:30:42,170
wage

6869
01:30:42,170 --> 01:30:43,180
increase

6870
01:30:43,180 --> 01:30:43,718
in 2025

6871
01:30:43,718 --> 01:30:44,185
. Our

6872
01:30:44,185 --> 01:30:45,860
bargaining

6873
01:30:45,860 --> 01:30:45,420
unit has

6874
01:30:45,420 --> 01:30:45,687
remained

6875
01:30:45,687 --> 01:30:45,954
at

6876
01:30:45,954 --> 01:30:47,954
3%

6877
01:30:47,956 --> 01:30:49,324
. While nearly every

6878
01:30:49,324 --> 01:30:49,925
other

6879
01:30:49,925 --> 01:30:50,325
proposal we have brought

6880
01:30:50,325 --> 01:30:50,792
forward has

6881
01:30:50,792 --> 01:30:52,792
been rejected

6882
01:30:52,794 --> 01:30:54,629
. The

6883
01:30:54,629 --> 01:30:54,896
only movement we've seen was on

6884
01:30:54,896 --> 01:30:55,330
a

6885
01:30:55,330 --> 01:30:56,898
boot allowance

6886
01:30:56,898 --> 01:30:57,165
, and

6887
01:30:57,165 --> 01:30:57,365
even

6888
01:30:57,365 --> 01:30:57,665
that

6889
01:30:57,665 --> 01:30:58,867
became

6890
01:30:58,867 --> 01:30:59,234
a reimbursement rather

6891
01:30:59,234 --> 01:30:59,634
than a

6892
01:30:59,634 --> 01:31:01,602
true benefit

6893
01:31:01,602 --> 01:31:01,970
. Our

6894
01:31:01,970 --> 01:31:02,938
members

6895
01:31:02,938 --> 01:31:03,438
are

6896
01:31:03,438 --> 01:31:03,805
asking a

6897
01:31:03,805 --> 01:31:05,640
simple

6898
01:31:05,640 --> 01:31:06,308
question. Why are we being

6899
01:31:06,308 --> 01:31:07,876
treated differently

6900
01:31:07,876 --> 01:31:08,760
? We

6901
01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:08,477
aren't

6902
01:31:08,477 --> 01:31:09,778
asking for

6903
01:31:09,778 --> 01:31:09,978
special treatment

6904
01:31:09,978 --> 01:31:10,479
.

6905
01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:12,800
We're asking for

6906
01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:12,481
fair treatment

6907
01:31:12,481 --> 01:31:13,215
Every month

6908
01:31:13,215 --> 01:31:14,382
that passes without

6909
01:31:14,382 --> 01:31:14,716
a

6910
01:31:14,716 --> 01:31:15,350
contract

6911
01:31:15,350 --> 01:31:16,752
affects morale

6912
01:31:16,752 --> 01:31:17,119
. We

6913
01:31:17,119 --> 01:31:17,586
begin to

6914
01:31:17,586 --> 01:31:18,820
wonder whether

6915
01:31:18,820 --> 01:31:19,420
our

6916
01:31:19,420 --> 01:31:19,655
dedication matters

6917
01:31:19,655 --> 01:31:20,856
. It

6918
01:31:20,856 --> 01:31:21,256
becomes

6919
01:31:21,256 --> 01:31:21,857
harder to

6920
01:31:21,857 --> 01:31:22,560
recruit

6921
01:31:22,560 --> 01:31:22,424
qualified

6922
01:31:22,424 --> 01:31:23,325
workers

6923
01:31:23,325 --> 01:31:23,659
, which

6924
01:31:23,659 --> 01:31:24,626
leads to

6925
01:31:24,626 --> 01:31:26,280
employee

6926
01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:26,661
burnout and even

6927
01:31:26,661 --> 01:31:28,620
harder to

6928
01:31:28,620 --> 01:31:28,364
retain

6929
01:31:28,364 --> 01:31:29,832
the

6930
01:31:29,832 --> 01:31:30,299
experienced employees who

6931
01:31:30,299 --> 01:31:30,733
keep

6932
01:31:30,733 --> 01:31:31,466
this

6933
01:31:31,466 --> 01:31:33,135
county running safely

6934
01:31:33,135 --> 01:31:33,969
and

6935
01:31:33,969 --> 01:31:35,204
efficiently. No one

6936
01:31:35,204 --> 01:31:35,904
wants

6937
01:31:35,904 --> 01:31:37,373
negotiations to

6938
01:31:37,373 --> 01:31:38,240
become

6939
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:39,740
confrontational. We want

6940
01:31:39,740 --> 01:31:39,508
a

6941
01:31:39,508 --> 01:31:39,842
partnership

6942
01:31:39,842 --> 01:31:40,242
. We want

6943
01:31:40,242 --> 01:31:40,709
to reach

6944
01:31:40,709 --> 01:31:41,143
an

6945
01:31:41,143 --> 01:31:41,777
agreement

6946
01:31:41,777 --> 01:31:42,440
that respects

6947
01:31:42,440 --> 01:31:42,711
the

6948
01:31:42,711 --> 01:31:43,450
value of

6949
01:31:43,450 --> 01:31:44,813
public

6950
01:31:44,813 --> 01:31:45,281
works employees

6951
01:31:45,281 --> 01:31:45,848
bring

6952
01:31:45,848 --> 01:31:46,348
to Skaggett

6953
01:31:46,348 --> 01:31:46,615
County every

6954
01:31:46,615 --> 01:31:47,716
day

6955
01:31:47,716 --> 01:31:48,170
. Commissioners, we

6956
01:31:48,170 --> 01:31:48,450
are

6957
01:31:48,450 --> 01:31:48,884
asking

6958
01:31:48,884 --> 01:31:49,218
that

6959
01:31:49,218 --> 01:31:50,319
you help

6960
01:31:50,319 --> 01:31:50,619
move

6961
01:31:50,619 --> 01:31:51,120
this

6962
01:31:51,120 --> 01:31:53,220
process forward

6963
01:31:53,220 --> 01:31:53,388
. Show us that

6964
01:31:53,388 --> 01:31:54,657
our work

6965
01:31:54,657 --> 01:31:54,990
is

6966
01:31:54,990 --> 01:31:55,891
valued

6967
01:31:55,891 --> 01:31:57,626
, demonstrate

6968
01:31:57,626 --> 01:31:57,893
that fairness is

6969
01:31:57,893 --> 01:31:58,427
a

6970
01:31:58,427 --> 01:31:59,328
word that it

6971
01:31:59,328 --> 01:32:00,290
is a

6972
01:32:00,290 --> 01:32:00,397
print that is more than a

6973
01:32:00,397 --> 01:32:01,530
word that

6974
01:32:01,530 --> 01:32:01,997
it's

6975
01:32:01,997 --> 01:32:02,431
a principle

6976
01:32:02,431 --> 01:32:02,698
.

6977
01:32:02,698 --> 01:32:03,699
This

6978
01:32:03,699 --> 01:32:04,400
county

6979
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:04,666
stands behind

6980
01:32:04,666 --> 01:32:05,100
. Our

6981
01:32:05,100 --> 01:32:06,469
members

6982
01:32:06,469 --> 01:32:07,690
have remained

6983
01:32:07,690 --> 01:32:07,436
. You're

6984
01:32:07,436 --> 01:32:08,437
Patient

6985
01:32:08,437 --> 01:32:09,710
for

6986
01:32:09,710 --> 01:32:09,471
18

6987
01:32:09,471 --> 01:32:10,439
months

6988
01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:10,940
. We're

6989
01:32:10,940 --> 01:32:11,340
not asking for

6990
01:32:11,340 --> 01:32:12,800
progress. Thank

6991
01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:15,800
you. Thank you very much

6992
01:32:15,440 --> 01:32:15,744
.

6993
01:32:15,744 --> 01:32:16,279
Anthony, you want to go or is

go

6997
01:32:18,281 --> 01:32:19,482
that doesn't deal with

6998
01:32:19,482 --> 01:32:19,682
I

6999
01:32:19,682 --> 01:32:20,182
think

7000
01:32:20,182 --> 01:32:22,182
Anthony, go ahead

7001
01:32:27,190 --> 01:32:27,523

01:32:51,547 --> 01:32:51,815
. In

7025
01:32:51,815 --> 01:32:53,815
2003

7026
01:32:54,117 --> 01:32:54,517
and I'd like to read you

7027
01:32:54,517 --> 01:32:56,517
something

7028
01:32:58,488 --> 01:32:59,210
. Out

7029
01:32:59,210 --> 01:33:00,223
of the

7030
01:33:00,223 --> 01:33:00,557
court

7031
01:33:00,557 --> 01:33:00,990
papers

7032
01:33:00,990 --> 01:33:02,292
, disturbing

7033
01:33:02,292 --> 01:33:03,250
,

7034
01:33:03,250 --> 01:33:03,460
disturbingly, someone has

7035
01:33:03,460 --> 01:33:04,628
strung

7036
01:33:04,628 --> 01:33:05,195
barbed

7037
01:33:05,195 --> 01:33:05,862
wire across the

7038
01:33:05,862 --> 01:33:06,963
path from Schuler

7039
01:33:06,963 --> 01:33:07,263
Road

7040
01:33:07,263 --> 01:33:07,531
onto

7041
01:33:07,531 --> 01:33:09,531
a

7042
01:33:09,666 --> 01:33:10,434
state-owned property that led

7043
01:33:10,434 --> 01:33:11,167
to another neighbor's home

7044
01:33:11,167 --> 01:33:11,668
.

7045
01:33:11,668 --> 01:33:12,335
Which Anthony

7046
01:33:12,335 --> 01:33:12,869
frequently using

7047
01:33:12,869 --> 01:33:14,270
quad or motorbike

7048
01:33:14,270 --> 01:33:14,638
. Or

7049
01:33:14,638 --> 01:33:16,730
Anthony

7050
01:33:16,730 --> 01:33:16,706
frequently

7051
01:33:16,706 --> 01:33:18,442
using his quad

7052
01:33:18,442 --> 01:33:18,775
motorbike. If

7053
01:33:18,775 --> 01:33:19,900
Anthony

7054
01:33:19,900 --> 01:33:19,343
had

7055
01:33:19,343 --> 01:33:20,243
seen

7056
01:33:20,243 --> 01:33:21,111
,

7057
01:33:21,111 --> 01:33:21,444
not had not seen the barbed

7058
01:33:21,444 --> 01:33:21,744
wire

7059
01:33:21,744 --> 01:33:22,879
before

7060
01:33:22,879 --> 01:33:23,347
he drove down

7061
01:33:23,347 --> 01:33:23,814
the

7062
01:33:23,814 --> 01:33:24,848
path

7063
01:33:24,848 --> 01:33:25,214
full speed

7064
01:33:25,214 --> 01:33:25,782
. He would have

7065
01:33:25,782 --> 01:33:26,283
most likely have

7066
01:33:26,283 --> 01:33:26,950
been killed

7067
01:33:26,950 --> 01:33:27,251
or

7068
01:33:27,251 --> 01:33:29,251
maimed

7069
01:33:29,887 --> 01:33:30,487
. Anthony reported the

7070
01:33:30,487 --> 01:33:32,255
incident to the police

7071
01:33:32,255 --> 01:33:32,756
. But

7072
01:33:32,756 --> 01:33:34,258
there was

7073
01:33:34,258 --> 01:33:34,792
insufficient evidence

7074
01:33:34,792 --> 01:33:36,126
to show who had

7075
01:33:36,126 --> 01:33:37,940
strung the

7076
01:33:37,940 --> 01:33:37,494
barbed wire across the path,

7077
01:33:37,494 --> 01:33:38,328
and I found

7078
01:33:38,328 --> 01:33:38,695
the

7079
01:33:38,695 --> 01:33:38,963
barbed

7080
01:33:38,963 --> 01:33:39,563
wire in

7081
01:33:39,563 --> 01:33:41,563
the neighbor's yard

7082
01:33:42,833 --> 01:33:43,866
. Anthony

7083
01:33:43,866 --> 01:33:46,266
later discovered barbed wire

7084
01:33:46,336 --> 01:33:46,603
matching the barbed wire

7085
01:33:46,603 --> 01:33:47,171
and

7086
01:33:47,171 --> 01:33:47,771
strung across

7087
01:33:47,771 --> 01:33:48,538
the trail on the

7088
01:33:48,538 --> 01:33:49,673
Bellfields property

7089
01:33:49,673 --> 01:33:50,341
. More and

7090
01:33:50,341 --> 01:33:50,608
more, Anthony has begun to fear

7091
01:33:50,608 --> 01:33:51,809
for

7092
01:33:51,809 --> 01:33:52,409
his safety

7093
01:33:52,409 --> 01:33:52,910
. The Bellfields

7094
01:33:52,910 --> 01:33:54,780
have also

7095
01:33:54,780 --> 01:33:54,445
filed

7096

7110
01:34:02,353 --> 01:34:03,120
Anthony must

7111
01:34:03,120 --> 01:34:03,421
spend

7112
01:34:03,421 --> 01:34:03,588

01:34:08,159 --> 01:34:08,392
, the

01:34:08,392 --> 01:34:08,693
Bellfields

7121
01:34:08,693 --> 01:34:09,894
have

7122
01:34:09,894 --> 01:34:10,261
engaged in

7123
01:34:10,261 --> 01:34:10,528
a

7124
01:34:10,528 --> 01:34:10,928
callous

7125
01:34:10,928 --> 01:34:12,129
campaign to

7126
01:34:12,129 --> 01:34:12,463
harm

7127
01:34:12,463 --> 01:34:13,297
Anthony's

7128
01:34:13,297 --> 01:34:14,231
reputation and paint him as

7129
01:34:14,231 --> 01:34:14,632
a

and dangerous person.

7132
01:34:15,666 --> 01:34:17,335
Which

7133
01:34:17,335 --> 01:34:17,602
is undeniable

7134
01:34:17,602 --> 01:34:17,969
. Anthony

7135
01:34:17,969 --> 01:34:19,170
does not

7136
01:34:19,170 --> 01:34:19,870
doubt that the

7137
01:34:19,870 --> 01:34:20,204
Bellfields have been trying to

7138
01:34:20,204 --> 01:34:21,472
drive

7139
01:34:21,472 --> 01:34:22,139
him out of the

7140
01:34:22,139 --> 01:34:22,540
neighborhood. The

7141
01:34:22,540 --> 01:34:24,208
neighbor to

7142
01:34:24,208 --> 01:34:24,542
the

7143
01:34:24,542 --> 01:34:24,942

7144
01:34:24,942 --> 01:34:25,943
of Anthony's

,

7146
01:34:26,444 --> 01:34:26,877
Deborah Abel

7147
01:34:26,877 --> 01:34:28,312
began to

7148
01:34:28,312 --> 01:34:28,880
assist

7149
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:30,181
Bellfield's efforts

7150
01:34:30,181 --> 01:34:30,448
. MISS

7151
01:34:30,448 --> 01:34:30,982
Abel

7152
01:34:30,982 --> 01:34:32,216
was married to

7153
01:34:32,216 --> 01:34:32,517
an

7154
01:34:32,517 --> 01:34:32,750
heir

7155
01:34:32,750 --> 01:34:33,510
to

7156
01:34:33,510 --> 01:34:35,510
the

7157
01:34:35,420 --> 01:34:35,986
Johnson's estate, which used to

7158
01:34:35,986 --> 01:34:37,540
own most of the

7159
01:34:37,540 --> 01:34:37,354
Schuler

7160
01:34:37,354 --> 01:34:38,289
Road

7161
01:34:38,289 --> 01:34:40,124
lots before they sold them, but

7162
01:34:40,124 --> 01:34:40,758
but except mine. That's why

7163
01:34:40,758 --> 01:34:42,327
mine is accepted a lot

7164
01:34:42,327 --> 01:34:43,761
. Anyway

7165
01:34:43,761 --> 01:34:44,528
,

7166
01:34:44,528 --> 01:34:45,796
um, that's pretty much the gist

7167
01:34:45,796 --> 01:34:46,300
of

7168
01:34:46,300 --> 01:34:46,631
it

7169
01:34:46,631 --> 01:34:48,631
. And

7170
01:34:48,633 --> 01:34:49,000
, uh, uh, uh, here's

7171
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:50,602
where, um

7172
01:34:50,602 --> 01:34:51,269
, Chicago Title has

7173
01:34:51,269 --> 01:34:51,569
made a typographical error and

7174
01:34:51,569 --> 01:34:53,300
will

7175
01:34:53,300 --> 01:34:53,471
not change it, and that is

7176
01:34:53,471 --> 01:34:55,471
on, uh, um

7177
01:34:58,209 --> 01:34:59,978
that is

7178
01:34:59,978 --> 01:35:01,978
right

7179
01:35:03,815 --> 01:35:04,582
where

7180
01:35:04,582 --> 01:35:05,150
Miss Winters ends up with

7181
01:35:05,150 --> 01:35:06,351
Aboriginal rights

7182
01:35:06,351 --> 01:35:06,529
and whatnot

7183
01:35:06,529 --> 01:35:07,510
.

7184
01:35:07,510 --> 01:35:08,453
Anyway, I'll, I'll

7185
01:35:08,453 --> 01:35:09,186
I'll I'll

7186
01:35:09,186 --> 01:35:10,588
just try to make this short

7187
01:35:10,588 --> 01:35:11,456
. Um

7188
01:35:11,456 --> 01:35:11,923
uh, and that's

7189
01:35:11,923 --> 01:35:13,358
where Janicky

7190
01:35:13,358 --> 01:35:13,592

a

that

it

7317
01:36:39,579 --> 01:36:41,247
recommends that the county

7318
01:36:41,247 --> 01:36:41,914
supports agencies that are

7319
01:36:41,914 --> 01:36:43,149

Woolly residents

7352
01:37:02,902 --> 01:37:03,268
We finally

7353
01:37:03,268 --> 01:37:03,903
have

7358
01:37:05,638 --> 01:37:06,172
to make

7359
01:37:06,172 --> 01:37:06,806
this vision a real

7360
01:37:06,806 --> 01:37:07,730
ity

7361
01:37:07,730 --> 01:37:07,841
When

7362
01:37:07,841 --> 01:37:08,141
flooding at

7363
01:37:08,141 --> 01:37:08,641
Riverfront

7364
01:37:08,641 --> 01:37:09,943
Park became an

7365
01:37:09,943 --> 01:37:10,677
increasing

7366
01:37:10,677 --> 01:37:11,310
concern. The first thought was

7367
01:37:11,310 --> 01:37:12,245
to move the baseball

7368
01:37:12,245 --> 01:37:13,145
and

7369
01:37:13,145 --> 01:37:13,413
softball fields to Wendy Hauser

7370

7371
01:37:14,447 --> 01:37:14,781
. But

7372
01:37:14,781 --> 01:37:15,480
after

7373
01:37:15,480 --> 01:37:15,415
careful

7374
01:37:15,415 --> 01:37:15,982
planning

7375
01:37:15,982 --> 01:37:16,983
, it became clear

7376
01:37:16,983 --> 01:37:17,617
that

7377
01:37:17,617 --> 01:37:17,917
Winnhauser Park could not meet

7378
01:37:17,917 --> 01:37:19,352
the

01:37:19,352 --> 01:37:19,719
long-term needs of

01:37:19,719 --> 01:37:20,860
our

7382
01:37:20,720 --> 01:37:21,133
, keeping Winnie

7383
01:37:21,133 --> 01:37:21,488
Hauser

7384
01:37:21,488 --> 01:37:21,888
as

7385
01:37:21,888 --> 01:37:22,388
a

7389
01:37:23,989 --> 01:37:24,558
while

7390
01:37:24,558 --> 01:37:25,250
transitioning

7391
01:37:25,250 --> 01:37:25,325

7392
01:37:25,325 --> 01:37:26,250
towards

7393
01:37:26,250 --> 01:37:26,526
additional

01:37:26,526 --> 01:37:26,860
soccer use

7395
01:37:26,860 --> 01:37:27,727
is the

7396
01:37:27,727 --> 01:37:28,595
better

7397
01:37:28,595 --> 01:37:29,129
long-term solution

7398
01:37:29,129 --> 01:37:29,428
. Soccer

7399
01:37:29,428 --> 01:37:29,896
fields

7400
01:37:29,896 --> 01:37:30,330
can recover from

7401
01:37:30,330 --> 01:37:31,131
the

7402
01:37:31,131 --> 01:37:31,965
flooding far

7403
01:37:31,965 --> 01:37:32,232
more easily

7404
01:37:32,232 --> 01:37:32,599
while

7405
01:37:32,599 --> 01:37:33,500
baseball

7406
01:37:33,500 --> 01:37:33,967
and softball

7407
01:37:33,967 --> 01:37:34,568
require

7408
01:37:34,568 --> 01:37:35,202
permanent

7409
01:37:35,202 --> 01:37:35,635
infrastructure that

7410
01:37:35,635 --> 01:37:36,135
is costly

7411
01:37:36,135 --> 01:37:36,970
to repair after

7412
01:37:36,970 --> 01:37:37,471
flood

7413
01:37:37,471 --> 01:37:37,771
events. Northern

7414
01:37:37,771 --> 01:37:38,305
State

7415
01:37:38,305 --> 01:37:39,373
Recreational Area

7416
01:37:39,373 --> 01:37:39,706
provides the

7417
01:37:39,706 --> 01:37:39,973
room to

7418
01:37:39,973 --> 01:37:40,273
grow

7419
01:37:40,273 --> 01:37:41,842
and the

7420
01:37:41,842 --> 01:37:42,509
opportunity to build a

7421
01:37:42,509 --> 01:37:44,378
permanent home for our

7422
01:37:44,378 --> 01:37:44,912
youth

7423
01:37:44,912 --> 01:37:45,144
programs exactly as

7424
01:37:45,144 --> 01:37:45,412
the

7425
01:37:45,412 --> 01:37:45,979
county

7426
01:37:45,979 --> 01:37:46,179
envisioned more than

7427
01:37:46,179 --> 01:37:46,580
3

7428
01:37:46,580 --> 01:37:47,214
decades

7429
01:37:47,214 --> 01:37:48,248
ago. I was

7430
01:37:48,248 --> 01:37:49,490
appointed to

7431
01:37:49,490 --> 01:37:49,850
represent the people of Cedar

7432
01:37:49,850 --> 01:37:50,450
Woolley, and that is who I

7433
01:37:50,450 --> 01:37:50,750
am

7434
01:37:50,750 --> 01:37:51,840
here

7435
01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:51,351
to speak

7436
01:37:51,351 --> 01:37:51,752
for

7437
01:37:51,752 --> 01:37:52,185
. While I

7438
01:37:52,185 --> 01:37:53,860
respect the

7439
01:37:53,860 --> 01:37:53,320
others

7440
01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:53,854
have

7441
01:37:53,854 --> 01:37:54,488
opinions. My

7442
01:37:54,488 --> 01:37:54,955
concern is for

7443
01:37:54,955 --> 01:37:55,488
the

7444
01:37:55,488 --> 01:37:56,123
families in

7445
01:37:56,123 --> 01:37:56,315
our community

7446
01:37:56,315 --> 01:37:56,523
who

7447
01:37:56,523 --> 01:37:56,989
have

7448
01:37:56,989 --> 01:37:57,658
waited more

7449
01:37:57,658 --> 01:37:58,580
than 30 years

7450
01:37:58,580 --> 01:37:58,959
for

7451
01:37:58,959 --> 01:37:59,326
this commitment to become

7452
01:37:59,326 --> 01:38:00,600
a

7453
01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:01,610
reality

7454
01:38:01,610 --> 01:38:01,328
. Concerns that

7455
01:38:01,328 --> 01:38:01,662
this

7456
01:38:01,662 --> 01:38:02,620
project

7457
01:38:02,620 --> 01:38:03,296

7458
01:38:03,296 --> 01:38:03,459
impact wetlands

7459
01:38:03,459 --> 01:38:03,764
or

7460
01:38:03,764 --> 01:38:04,980
threaten

01:38:04,980 --> 01:38:04,831

01:38:05,199 --> 01:38:05,699
Do

7465

your

01:38:23,918 --> 01:38:24,552

ask

7502
01:38:29,190 --> 01:38:29,523
you

7503
01:38:29,523 --> 01:38:30,570
to set

7504
01:38:30,570 --> 01:38:30,491
politics

7505
01:38:30,491 --> 01:38:30,791
aside

7506
01:38:30,791 --> 01:38:31,425
,

7507
01:38:31,425 --> 01:38:31,792
follow through with your

7508
01:38:31,792 --> 01:38:32,126
own

7509
01:38:32,126 --> 01:38:32,459
plans

7510
01:38:32,459 --> 01:38:33,940
, honor

7511
01:38:33,940 --> 01:38:34,610
the commitments

7512
01:38:34,610 --> 01:38:34,695
already made and give the

7513
01:38:34,695 --> 01:38:35,162
children and

7514
01:38:35,162 --> 01:38:35,428
families of

7515
01:38:35,428 --> 01:38:35,796
Cra

7516
01:38:35,796 --> 01:38:36,363
Woolley

7517
01:38:36,363 --> 01:38:36,564
, the permanent home

7518
01:38:36,564 --> 01:38:36,897
for

7519
01:38:36,897 --> 01:38:37,365
baseball

7520
01:38:37,365 --> 01:38:37,665
and softball. They

7521
01:38:37,665 --> 01:38:38,650
have

7522
01:38:38,650 --> 01:38:38,499
waited more

7523
01:38:38,499 --> 01:38:39,100
than 30 years

7524
01:38:39,100 --> 01:38:40,968
to receive. Thank you

7525
01:38:40,968 --> 01:38:42,770
. Erik

7526
01:38:42,770 --> 01:38:43,270
Moves, Jen and Jake

7527
01:38:43,270 --> 01:38:43,604
, Denmark

7528
01:38:43,604 --> 01:38:45,604
Hucker

7529
01:38:52,713 --> 01:38:53,810
. Good morning. Good

7530
01:38:53,810 --> 01:38:53,881
morning

7531
01:38:53,881 --> 01:38:54,449
. Eric Mobs. Um

7532
01:38:54,449 --> 01:38:55,549
I'm

7533
01:38:55,549 --> 01:38:56,217
on

7534
01:38:56,217 --> 01:38:56,984
the Little League board. I

7535
01:38:56,984 --> 01:38:57,985
don't have a speech. I

7536
01:38:57,985 --> 01:38:58,686
just

7537
01:38:58,686 --> 01:38:59,386
want to come up here and speak.

7538
01:38:59,386 --> 01:39:00,187
I got some notes I want to

7539
01:39:00,187 --> 01:39:00,488
go

7540
01:39:00,488 --> 01:39:01,155
over

7541
01:39:01,155 --> 01:39:01,522
. I'm not to

7542
01:39:01,522 --> 01:39:02,589
argue birds

7543
01:39:02,589 --> 01:39:03,157
.

7544
01:39:03,157 --> 01:39:03,825
I'm not going to argue the

7545
01:39:03,825 --> 01:39:04,125
fields. I'm just going to give

7546
01:39:04,125 --> 01:39:05,590
the

7547
01:39:05,590 --> 01:39:05,360
pros to

7548
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:05,960
why we

7549
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:07,295
need fields

7550
01:39:07,295 --> 01:39:07,562
.

7551
01:39:07,562 --> 01:39:09,562
So

7552
01:39:09,830 --> 01:39:10,398
me personally, this year is

7553
01:39:10,398 --> 01:39:11,432
my first year on the

7554
01:39:11,432 --> 01:39:11,833
board.

7555
01:39:11,833 --> 01:39:12,266
It's my 3rd

7556
01:39:12,266 --> 01:39:12,867
year doing Little

7557
01:39:12,867 --> 01:39:13,935
League with my girls

7558
01:39:13,935 --> 01:39:14,202
. I

7559
01:39:14,202 --> 01:39:14,468
put

7560
01:39:14,468 --> 01:39:15,360
in

7561
01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:16,204
countless hours

7562
01:39:16,204 --> 01:39:16,738
, volunteer

7563
01:39:16,738 --> 01:39:18,738
hours, cleaning up

7564
01:39:18,973 --> 01:39:19,274
. Flood

7565
01:39:19,274 --> 01:39:19,607
debris

7566
01:39:19,607 --> 01:39:20,800
helping

7567
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:20,341
the city as

7568
01:39:20,341 --> 01:39:21,900
much

7569
01:39:21,900 --> 01:39:21,375
as I can. The city worked with

7570
01:39:21,375 --> 01:39:22,977
is awesome

7571
01:39:22,977 --> 01:39:23,411
. But

7572
01:39:23,411 --> 01:39:23,778
it was a lot of

7573
01:39:23,778 --> 01:39:24,279
work and I

7574
01:39:24,279 --> 01:39:25,146
had work parties

7575
01:39:25,146 --> 01:39:25,580
out

7576
01:39:25,580 --> 01:39:26,381
there 5 to

7577
01:39:26,381 --> 01:39:27,215
6 deep, and it

7578
01:39:27,215 --> 01:39:27,682
would

7579
01:39:27,682 --> 01:39:28,183
take us 2 to

7580
01:39:28,183 --> 01:39:28,516
3 weekends to get

7581
01:39:28,516 --> 01:39:29,500
it ready

7582
01:39:29,500 --> 01:39:30,351
to play ball again

7583
01:39:30,351 --> 01:39:30,952
.

7584
01:39:30,952 --> 01:39:32,153
That amount of effort

7585
01:39:32,153 --> 01:39:32,354
I

7586
01:39:32,354 --> 01:39:33,880
see

7587
01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:34,723
with moving these fields

7588
01:39:34,723 --> 01:39:34,889
somewhere not prone to it

7589
01:39:34,889 --> 01:39:35,557
. It's

7590
01:39:35,557 --> 01:39:36,859
going to make us

7591
01:39:36,859 --> 01:39:37,101
take

7592
01:39:37,101 --> 01:39:37,592
some

7593
01:39:37,592 --> 01:39:39,930
pressure off the city

7594
01:39:39,930 --> 01:39:39,761
because

7595
01:39:39,761 --> 01:39:40,829
we love maintaining

7596
01:39:40,829 --> 01:39:41,396
ball fields

7597
01:39:41,396 --> 01:39:41,929
Jake can contest

7598
01:39:41,929 --> 01:39:43,565
to this. I

7599
01:39:43,565 --> 01:39:43,999
love going out and maintaining

7600
01:39:43,999 --> 01:39:45,701
ball fields

7601
01:39:45,701 --> 01:39:45,967
. Cleaning

7602
01:39:45,967 --> 01:39:46,601
up a

7603
01:39:46,601 --> 01:39:47,736
flood mess every year

7604
01:39:47,736 --> 01:39:48,469
. It's

7605
01:39:48,469 --> 01:39:52,690
going to get a little old

7606
01:39:52,474 --> 01:39:53,241
The

7607
01:39:53,241 --> 01:39:54,609
central location for those

7608
01:39:54,609 --> 01:39:54,810
fields, I think is

7609
01:39:54,810 --> 01:39:55,770
a

7610
01:39:55,770 --> 01:39:55,509
huge

7611
01:39:55,509 --> 01:39:56,778
benefit to

7612
01:39:56,778 --> 01:39:57,412
Cedar Woolley. Right

7613
01:39:57,412 --> 01:39:57,980
now, people drive into

7614
01:39:57,980 --> 01:39:59,281
Riverfront. That's the

7615
01:39:59,281 --> 01:39:59,648
beginning of Cedar

7616
01:39:59,648 --> 01:39:59,982
Wooley. They

7617
01:39:59,982 --> 01:40:00,348
go to

7618
01:40:00,348 --> 01:40:01,316
Jannii

7619
01:40:01,316 --> 01:40:01,483
. That's not

7620
01:40:01,483 --> 01:40:02,183
Cedar

7621
01:40:02,183 --> 01:40:03,751
Woolley quite yet, right

7622
01:40:03,751 --> 01:40:03,920
? If

7623
01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:04,586
we

7624
01:40:04,586 --> 01:40:05,386
can get them to go through

7625
01:40:05,386 --> 01:40:05,721
Cro

7626
01:40:05,721 --> 01:40:06,655
Woolley

7627
01:40:06,655 --> 01:40:08,189
. That's

7628
01:40:08,189 --> 01:40:08,957
gonna bring

7629
01:40:08,957 --> 01:40:09,958
economic impact to that city

7630
01:40:09,958 --> 01:40:10,792
.

7631
01:40:10,792 --> 01:40:11,126
It's going to make them drive

7632
01:40:11,126 --> 01:40:13,270
down 20

7633
01:40:13,270 --> 01:40:13,462
. And see all the cool

7634
01:40:13,462 --> 01:40:14,630
shops and see

7635
01:40:14,630 --> 01:40:14,963
where they can

7636
01:40:14,963 --> 01:40:15,397
turn off

7637
01:40:15,397 --> 01:40:15,964
. And then they're

7638
01:40:15,964 --> 01:40:17,299
gonna end up on the

7639
01:40:17,299 --> 01:40:17,533
bottom

7640
01:40:17,533 --> 01:40:17,900
of

7641
01:40:17,900 --> 01:40:19,602
the

7642
01:40:19,602 --> 01:40:19,902
Cascade Mountains and

7643
01:40:19,902 --> 01:40:20,335
play

7644
01:40:20,335 --> 01:40:21,403
baseball

7645
01:40:21,403 --> 01:40:21,904
or softball

7646
01:40:21,904 --> 01:40:22,371
. That's

7647
01:40:22,371 --> 01:40:23,505
pretty awesome

7648
01:40:23,505 --> 01:40:23,772
So

7649
01:40:23,772 --> 01:40:23,939
I'm

7650
01:40:23,939 --> 01:40:24,607
really

7651
01:40:24,607 --> 01:40:24,907
excited about this proposal. I

7652
01:40:24,907 --> 01:40:26,208
hope

7653
01:40:26,208 --> 01:40:26,542
you guys really

7654
01:40:26,542 --> 01:40:26,942
consider

7655
01:40:26,942 --> 01:40:28,430
that, that

7656
01:40:28,430 --> 01:40:28,644
, that would, this

7657
01:40:28,644 --> 01:40:30,746
will be a great home

7658
01:40:30,746 --> 01:40:31,347
. And it

7659
01:40:31,347 --> 01:40:31,680
can expand. It can be other

7660
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:33,150
things

7661
01:40:33,150 --> 01:40:33,715
. We've had questions on

7662
01:40:33,715 --> 01:40:34,917
our Facebook page. What

7663
01:40:34,917 --> 01:40:35,584
else is

7664
01:40:35,584 --> 01:40:36,185
going to happen there? All we

7665
01:40:36,185 --> 01:40:36,986
can say right now is

7666
01:40:36,986 --> 01:40:37,619
it's going

7667
01:40:37,619 --> 01:40:37,987
to be open to the

7668
01:40:37,987 --> 01:40:38,146
public

7669
01:40:38,146 --> 01:40:38,654
.

7670
01:40:38,654 --> 01:40:39,455
Everybody's gonna get

7671
01:40:39,455 --> 01:40:39,922
to use

7672
01:40:39,922 --> 01:40:40,489
this property

7673
01:40:40,489 --> 01:40:41,590
. We

7674
01:40:41,590 --> 01:40:41,763
have

7675
01:40:41,763 --> 01:40:42,291
no

7676
01:40:42,291 --> 01:40:42,625
intention of impacting any

7677
01:40:42,625 --> 01:40:44,625
wildlife

7678
01:40:44,660 --> 01:40:45,194
. If anything, we would

7679
01:40:45,194 --> 01:40:46,162
like to have that

7680
01:40:46,162 --> 01:40:46,929
area too

7681
01:40:46,929 --> 01:40:47,860
where we can go show kids

7682
01:40:47,860 --> 01:40:47,396
the

7683
01:40:47,396 --> 01:40:48,998
wildlife

7684
01:40:48,998 --> 01:40:49,188
. It'd be a

7685
01:40:49,188 --> 01:40:49,765
great

7686
01:40:49,765 --> 01:40:50,866
opportunity for them

7687
01:40:50,866 --> 01:40:51,830
So

7688
01:40:51,830 --> 01:40:51,600
with

7689
01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:52,735
that, I hold back

7690
01:40:52,735 --> 01:40:53,468
. I really

7691
01:40:53,468 --> 01:40:54,360
hope you guys consider this

7692
01:40:54,360 --> 01:40:55,504
Thanks

7693
01:40:55,504 --> 01:40:55,771
, Eric

7694
01:40:55,771 --> 01:40:56,138
. Jake

7695
01:40:56,138 --> 01:40:58,740
Denmark

7696
01:40:58,740 --> 01:40:58,441
, and

7697
01:40:58,441 --> 01:40:58,874
then

7698
01:40:58,874 --> 01:41:00,874
uh Carl Dion

7699
01:41:06,348 --> 01:41:06,749

seen all these floods and all

7719
01:41:21,970 --> 01:41:22,465
the

7720
01:41:22,465 --> 01:41:22,765
damage that comes

7721
01:41:22,765 --> 01:41:23,310

7722
01:41:23,310 --> 01:41:23,207
it

7723
01:41:23,207 --> 01:41:23,384
.

7724
01:41:23,384 --> 01:41:25,301
Um

the

7727
01:41:26,936 --> 01:41:27,203
fields

7728
01:41:27,203 --> 01:41:27,537
up there

7729
01:41:27,537 --> 01:41:29,138
would

7730
01:41:29,138 --> 01:41:29,439
really

7731
01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:29,873
benefit our

7732
01:41:29,873 --> 01:41:31,408
community. In

7733
01:41:31,408 --> 01:41:31,975
the

7734
01:41:31,975 --> 01:41:32,475
last 10 years

7735
01:41:32,475 --> 01:41:34,210
our Little

7736
01:41:34,210 --> 01:41:34,544
League has more

7737
01:41:34,544 --> 01:41:35,211
than

7738
01:41:35,211 --> 01:41:35,611
doubled. We're the largest

7739
01:41:35,611 --> 01:41:36,212
league in

7740
01:41:36,212 --> 01:41:36,847
the

7741
01:41:36,847 --> 01:41:38,114
county by far. We

7742
01:41:38,114 --> 01:41:38,648
have

7743
01:41:38,648 --> 01:41:39,820
over

7744
01:41:39,820 --> 01:41:40,549
600 kids

7745
01:41:40,549 --> 01:41:41,350
. In the

7746
01:41:41,350 --> 01:41:42,485
Little League

7747
01:41:42,485 --> 01:41:43,153
. Um

7748
01:41:43,153 --> 01:41:43,353
when

7749
01:41:43,353 --> 01:41:43,653
I was a

7750
01:41:43,653 --> 01:41:44,988
kid

7751
01:41:44,988 --> 01:41:45,355
in

7752
01:41:45,355 --> 01:41:45,588
Woolley

7753
01:41:45,588 --> 01:41:45,988
, we

7754
01:41:45,988 --> 01:41:47,900
had fields

7755
01:41:47,900 --> 01:41:48,580
all over

7756
01:41:48,580 --> 01:41:49,225
. Um in the

7757
01:41:49,225 --> 01:41:49,391
last

7758
01:41:49,391 --> 01:41:50,159
1015

7759
01:41:50,159 --> 01:41:52,950
years, all we've done really

7760
01:41:52,950 --> 01:41:52,562
is

7761
01:41:52,562 --> 01:41:53,763
lose fields

7762
01:41:53,763 --> 01:41:54,970
. Um, for whatever

7763
01:41:54,970 --> 01:41:54,865
reason

7764
01:41:54,865 --> 01:41:56,865
, a roundabout

7765
01:41:57,267 --> 01:41:58,368
, um, park

7766
01:41:58,368 --> 01:41:58,802
,

7767
01:41:58,802 --> 01:41:59,602
we've lost

7768
01:41:59,602 --> 01:42:00,937
, lost fields

7769
01:42:00,937 --> 01:42:01,470
. We

7770
01:42:01,470 --> 01:42:03,390
want to

7771
01:42:03,390 --> 01:42:03,674
continue growing. We

7772
01:42:03,674 --> 01:42:03,974
want to provide a place for the

7773
01:42:03,974 --> 01:42:05,141
kids

7774
01:42:05,141 --> 01:42:07,141
to go play

7775
01:42:07,277 --> 01:42:08,145
. They need this

7776
01:42:08,145 --> 01:42:09,813
They

7777
01:42:09,813 --> 01:42:10,800
need to have a place to go

7778
01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:12,800
play

7779
01:42:12,382 --> 01:42:12,883
. Our kids shouldn't be

7780
01:42:12,883 --> 01:42:14,117
trying to go out

7781
01:42:14,117 --> 01:42:14,418

7782
01:42:14,418 --> 01:42:14,718

That's

7886
01:43:38,436 --> 01:43:40,238
hard on families. It's hard on

7887
01:43:40,238 --> 01:43:40,839
the coaches, and it's not a

7888
01:43:40,839 --> 01:43:41,806
long term solution

7889
01:43:41,806 --> 01:43:42,720

the

01:43:49,881 --> 01:43:51,316
next responsible step

7901
01:43:51,316 --> 01:43:51,983

7902
01:43:51,983 --> 01:43:53,384
not just a

7903
01:43:53,384 --> 01:43:53,685

recreation

7905
01:43:54,152 --> 01:43:55,720
issue. It is

7906
01:43:55,720 --> 01:43:56,421
a

7907
01:43:56,421 --> 01:43:57,210
regional

7908
01:43:57,210 --> 01:43:58,356
stewardship decision

7909
01:43:58,356 --> 01:44:00,910
. Northern

7910
01:44:00,910 --> 01:44:00,325
state includes

7911
01:44:00,325 --> 01:44:00,725

7917
01:44:03,261 --> 01:44:04,296
, and it's

7918
01:44:04,296 --> 01:44:04,563
also

7919
01:44:04,563 --> 01:44:05,630
a

7920
01:44:05,630 --> 01:44:05,664
regional

recreational area

7922
01:44:07,399 --> 01:44:07,966
. Public land

7923
01:44:07,966 --> 01:44:08,834
can serve more

7924
01:44:08,834 --> 01:44:09,670
than

7925
01:44:09,670 --> 01:44:09,367

01:44:09,868 --> 01:44:10,869
purpose when it

7928
01:44:10,869 --> 01:44:11,436
is

7929
01:44:11,436 --> 01:44:11,837
planned

7930
01:44:11,837 --> 01:44:12,137
carefully

7931
01:44:12,137 --> 01:44:13,338
. That

7932
01:44:13,338 --> 01:44:13,605
includes

7933
01:44:13,605 --> 01:44:14,390
kids

7934
01:44:14,390 --> 01:44:14,373

7935
01:44:14,373 --> 01:44:15,807

7942
01:44:20,645 --> 01:44:21,246

7943
01:44:21,246 --> 01:44:23,246
, and history

7944
01:44:23,515 --> 01:44:24,216
. The

7945
01:44:24,216 --> 01:44:24,582
county describes Northern State

7946
01:44:24,582 --> 01:44:25,250
as a

7947
01:44:25,250 --> 01:44:25,584

7953
01:44:29,888 --> 01:44:30,255
this

7954
01:44:30,255 --> 01:44:31,290

7955
01:44:31,290 --> 01:44:31,690

01:44:31,690 --> 01:44:32,257
that purpose

7957
01:44:32,257 --> 01:44:33,525
. It

7958
01:44:33,525 --> 01:44:34,326
is

7959
01:44:34,326 --> 01:44:35,594
also consistent with

7960
01:44:35,594 --> 01:44:36,194

Ripken team, and finding

8107
01:46:28,208 --> 01:46:29,900
a

8108
01:46:29,900 --> 01:46:29,242
field of practice and

8109
01:46:29,242 --> 01:46:29,776
host

8110
01:46:29,776 --> 01:46:30,944
games is one of

8111
01:46:30,944 --> 01:46:31,178
the

8112
01:46:31,178 --> 01:46:31,979
most

8113
01:46:31,979 --> 01:46:32,980
difficult things that we do

8114
01:46:32,980 --> 01:46:33,580
.

8115
01:46:33,580 --> 01:46:33,742
This year we pra we

8116
01:46:33,742 --> 01:46:34,181
have

8117
01:46:34,181 --> 01:46:35,449
practiced and

8118
01:46:35,449 --> 01:46:36,383
held all of our

8119
01:46:36,383 --> 01:46:36,650
siege wooly mammoth games

8120
01:46:36,650 --> 01:46:37,651
over

8121
01:46:37,651 --> 01:46:38,185
in

8122
01:46:38,185 --> 01:46:38,619
Burlington

8123
01:46:38,619 --> 01:46:39,520
because that's

8124
01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:39,620
where we

8125
01:46:39,620 --> 01:46:40,120
had

8126
01:46:40,120 --> 01:46:40,521
field

8127
01:46:40,521 --> 01:46:41,354
space

8128
01:46:41,354 --> 01:46:41,955
available, and even

8129
01:46:41,955 --> 01:46:42,389
then teams

8130
01:46:42,389 --> 01:46:42,789
would show

8131
01:46:42,789 --> 01:46:43,190
up

8132
01:46:43,190 --> 01:46:43,724
themselves

8133
01:46:43,724 --> 01:46:44,458
needing a place

8134
01:46:44,458 --> 01:46:44,655
to practice

8135
01:46:44,655 --> 01:46:45,250
,

8136
01:46:45,250 --> 01:46:45,826
whether it

8137
01:46:45,826 --> 01:46:46,560
is baseball

8138
01:46:46,560 --> 01:46:47,327
, soccer

8139
01:46:47,327 --> 01:46:47,561
,

8140
01:46:47,561 --> 01:46:48,162
or

8141
01:46:48,162 --> 01:46:48,529
football, the

8142
01:46:48,529 --> 01:46:48,962
need for

8143
01:46:48,962 --> 01:46:49,562
more

8144
01:46:49,562 --> 01:46:50,970
fields

8145
01:46:50,970 --> 01:46:50,464
, not less

8146
01:46:50,464 --> 01:46:51,398
, is

8147
01:46:51,398 --> 01:46:51,732
very

8148
01:46:51,732 --> 01:46:51,999
apparent

8149
01:46:51,999 --> 01:46:53,133
. I

8150
01:46:53,133 --> 01:46:53,534
believe that

8151
01:46:53,534 --> 01:46:54,335
the

8152
01:46:54,335 --> 01:46:54,568
children are

8153
01:46:54,568 --> 01:46:55,202
our

8154
01:46:55,202 --> 01:46:55,769
future, and

8155
01:46:55,769 --> 01:46:56,360
then we should put

8156
01:46:56,360 --> 01:46:56,303
them

8157
01:46:56,303 --> 01:46:56,465
first

8158
01:46:56,465 --> 01:46:56,837
.

8159
01:46:56,837 --> 01:46:57,805
Kids learn

8160
01:46:57,805 --> 01:46:58,572
valuable skills

8161
01:46:58,572 --> 01:46:58,742
through athletics. And

8162
01:46:58,742 --> 01:46:59,390
they

8163
01:46:59,390 --> 01:47:00,174
carry

8164
01:47:00,174 --> 01:47:00,541
that with them for the

8165
01:47:00,541 --> 01:47:00,908
rest of

8166
01:47:00,908 --> 01:47:02,643
their lives

8167
01:47:02,643 --> 01:47:03,100
. According

8168
01:47:03,100 --> 01:47:03,410
to your

8169
01:47:03,410 --> 01:47:04,378
own documents

8170
01:47:04,378 --> 01:47:05,345
, a

8171
01:47:05,345 --> 01:47:05,779
baseball field complex has been

8172
01:47:05,779 --> 01:47:06,814
your park

8173
01:47:06,814 --> 01:47:07,248
plan

8174
01:47:07,248 --> 01:47:07,418
for years

8175
01:47:07,418 --> 01:47:07,982
, and

8176
01:47:07,982 --> 01:47:08,949
you have just been

8177
01:47:08,949 --> 01:47:10,500
waiting for

8178
01:47:10,500 --> 01:47:10,217
a municipality to partner

8179
01:47:10,217 --> 01:47:10,618
with

8180
01:47:10,618 --> 01:47:11,819
to bring it

8181
01:47:11,819 --> 01:47:12,419
to fruition

8182
01:47:12,419 --> 01:47:12,887
. Well,

8183
01:47:12,887 --> 01:47:13,988
now is

8184
01:47:13,988 --> 01:47:14,255
that time. The city

8185
01:47:14,255 --> 01:47:14,889

8186
01:47:14,889 --> 01:47:15,155
Sirawoli is willing

8187
01:47:15,155 --> 01:47:15,890
to

8188
01:47:15,890 --> 01:47:16,156
do

8189
01:47:16,156 --> 01:47:16,456
so

8190
01:47:16,456 --> 01:47:16,757
and

8191
01:47:16,757 --> 01:47:17,124
make

8192
01:47:17,124 --> 01:47:18,920
your

8193
01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:18,391
park plan

8194
01:47:18,391 --> 01:47:19,760
come

8195
01:47:19,760 --> 01:47:20,260
into existence. Doing

8196
01:47:20,260 --> 01:47:20,628
so

8197
01:47:20,628 --> 01:47:21,295
will

8198
01:47:21,295 --> 01:47:21,796
enhance the lives

8199
01:47:21,796 --> 01:47:22,296
of thousands

8200
01:47:22,296 --> 01:47:22,663
of kids

8201
01:47:22,663 --> 01:47:23,230
over

8202
01:47:23,230 --> 01:47:24,332
the next

8203
01:47:24,332 --> 01:47:24,832
generations, and that should be

8204
01:47:24,832 --> 01:47:25,266
the

8205
01:47:25,266 --> 01:47:25,800
goal

8206
01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:26,367
. Raise

8207
01:47:26,367 --> 01:47:26,801
and enhance

8208
01:47:26,801 --> 01:47:27,501
the

8209
01:47:27,501 --> 01:47:28,402
lives of

8210
01:47:28,402 --> 01:47:29,136

01:47:29,136 --> 01:47:29,603
next generation. I

01:47:32,273 --> 01:47:32,506
As

taxpayer, I

8216
01:47:34,509 --> 01:47:34,775
would like to see the kids

8217
01:47:34,775 --> 01:47:35,376
put

8218
01:47:35,376 --> 01:47:36,477
first. Thank

01:47:36,477 --> 01:47:37,120

8220
01:47:37,120 --> 01:47:37,345
.

8221
01:47:37,345 --> 01:47:38,246
Thanks

8222
01:47:38,246 --> 01:47:38,979

. Sherry Cameron,

8224
01:47:39,480 --> 01:47:40,914
and then

8225
01:47:40,914 --> 01:47:41,149
Laura Larson

8226
01:47:41,149 --> 01:47:41,616
. Uh

8227
01:47:41,616 --> 01:47:42,500
,

8228
01:47:42,500 --> 01:47:42,950
Sherry Cameron

8229
01:47:42,950 --> 01:47:43,584
doesn't want to

8230
01:47:43,584 --> 01:47:44,352
speak

8231
01:47:44,352 --> 01:47:45,253
. So I'm

8232
01:47:45,253 --> 01:47:45,438
Laura Larson

8233
01:47:45,438 --> 01:47:45,653
.

8234
01:47:45,653 --> 01:47:45,952
Laura

8235
01:47:45,952 --> 01:47:46,321
Larson

8236
01:47:46,321 --> 01:47:47,422
, perfect

8237
01:47:47,422 --> 01:47:49,390
. Uh

, um,

8239
01:47:49,958 --> 01:47:50,991
my biggest concern

8240
01:47:50,991 --> 01:47:51,759
is safety

8241
01:47:51,759 --> 01:47:52,260
. I

8242
01:47:52,260 --> 01:47:52,393
go

8243
01:47:52,393 --> 01:47:52,860
and walk

8244
01:47:52,860 --> 01:47:53,795
my dog

8245
01:47:53,795 --> 01:47:54,796
every

8246
01:47:54,796 --> 01:47:55,230
day

8247
01:47:55,230 --> 01:47:56,297
at

8248
01:47:56,297 --> 01:47:57,131
Northern

8249
01:47:57,131 --> 01:47:57,599
State

8250
01:47:57,599 --> 01:47:58,266
and

8251
01:47:58,266 --> 01:47:58,933
I usually

8252
01:47:58,933 --> 01:47:59,367
park on

8253
01:47:59,367 --> 01:48:00,680
the

8254
01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:00,668
Helmick

8255
01:48:00,668 --> 01:48:01,302
Road

8256
01:48:01,302 --> 01:48:02,837
, and I

8257
01:48:02,837 --> 01:48:04,172
live upriver

8258
01:48:04,172 --> 01:48:04,939
. And it's like

8259
01:48:04,939 --> 01:48:05,540
every

8260
01:48:05,540 --> 01:48:06,400
day

8261
01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:06,541
it's

8262
01:48:06,541 --> 01:48:06,808
dangerous

8263
01:48:06,808 --> 01:48:07,308
to

8264
01:48:07,308 --> 01:48:08,376
turn left

8265
01:48:08,376 --> 01:48:09,770
off

8266
01:48:09,770 --> 01:48:10,511
of Helmick Road

8267
01:48:10,511 --> 01:48:11,120
.

8268
01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:12,680
Onto Highway 20

8269
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:13,415
My

8270
01:48:13,415 --> 01:48:15,116
biggest

8271
01:48:15,116 --> 01:48:15,350
concerns for

8272
01:48:15,350 --> 01:48:15,816
the

8273
01:48:15,816 --> 01:48:17,452
ball fields

8274
01:48:17,452 --> 01:48:17,819
.

8275
01:48:17,819 --> 01:48:19,387
Is that

8276
01:48:19,387 --> 01:48:19,988
you possibly

8277
01:48:19,988 --> 01:48:20,322
could

8278
01:48:20,322 --> 01:48:21,155
be

8279
01:48:21,155 --> 01:48:21,590
putting

8280
01:48:21,590 --> 01:48:22,156
your families

8281
01:48:22,156 --> 01:48:22,490
in

8282
01:48:22,490 --> 01:48:22,857
danger

8283
01:48:22,857 --> 01:48:23,391
because

8284
01:48:23,391 --> 01:48:23,758
I've

8285
01:48:23,758 --> 01:48:24,225
seen

8286
01:48:24,225 --> 01:48:25,760
several

8287
01:48:25,760 --> 01:48:26,528
deadly accidents on

8288
01:48:26,528 --> 01:48:28,196
Highway 20

8289
01:48:28,196 --> 01:48:28,463
.

8290
01:48:28,463 --> 01:48:28,663
And

8291
01:48:28,663 --> 01:48:29,132
I

8292
01:48:29,132 --> 01:48:30,980
just

8293
01:48:30,980 --> 01:48:30,465
feel that

8294
01:48:30,465 --> 01:48:30,932
I'm not

8295
01:48:30,932 --> 01:48:31,266
against

8296
01:48:31,266 --> 01:48:32,134
the ball

8297
01:48:32,134 --> 01:48:32,333
fields

8298
01:48:32,333 --> 01:48:32,934
. I

8299
01:48:32,934 --> 01:48:33,268
think you really

8300
01:48:33,268 --> 01:48:33,453
need to

8301
01:48:33,453 --> 01:48:33,735
talk

8302
01:48:33,735 --> 01:48:34,469
about

8303
01:48:34,469 --> 01:48:35,700
the

8304
01:48:35,700 --> 01:48:35,570
traffic flow

8305
01:48:35,570 --> 01:48:35,871
. I, I

8306
01:48:35,871 --> 01:48:36,805
mean

8307
01:48:36,805 --> 01:48:37,205
, are

8308
01:48:37,205 --> 01:48:37,439
you gonna

8309
01:48:37,439 --> 01:48:37,706
put

8310
01:48:37,706 --> 01:48:39,174
a

8311
01:48:39,174 --> 01:48:39,574
stoplight out on

8312
01:48:39,574 --> 01:48:41,750
Helmick Road

8313
01:48:41,750 --> 01:48:41,710
.

8314
01:48:41,710 --> 01:48:42,377
Probably not right away

8315
01:48:42,377 --> 01:48:44,377
. I

8316
01:48:44,546 --> 01:48:45,314
worry about our

8317
01:48:45,314 --> 01:48:45,914
children too. I

8318
01:48:45,914 --> 01:48:46,348
raised

8319
01:48:46,348 --> 01:48:46,648
my family

8320
01:48:46,648 --> 01:48:46,815
in

8321
01:48:46,815 --> 01:48:47,182
Cedar

8322
01:48:47,182 --> 01:48:48,283
Woolley

8323
01:48:48,283 --> 01:48:50,151
. And

8324
01:48:50,151 --> 01:48:50,819
I

8325
01:48:50,819 --> 01:48:51,219
just

8326
01:48:51,219 --> 01:48:52,754
have this

8327
01:48:52,754 --> 01:48:53,354
awful

8328
01:48:53,354 --> 01:48:54,122
feeling because I

8329
01:48:54,122 --> 01:48:54,956
have

8330
01:48:54,956 --> 01:48:55,591
seen

8331
01:48:55,591 --> 01:48:56,580
several

8332
01:48:56,580 --> 01:48:56,625
MISS

8333
01:48:56,625 --> 01:48:57,250
Near misses

8334
01:48:57,250 --> 01:48:58,600
on

8335
01:48:58,600 --> 01:48:58,560
Highway 20

8336
01:48:58,560 --> 01:48:58,894
, where people

8337
01:48:58,894 --> 01:48:59,461
are

8338
01:48:59,461 --> 01:49:01,960
passing

8339
01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:01,730
, going fast

8340
01:49:01,730 --> 01:49:02,397
, and it's

8341
01:49:02,397 --> 01:49:03,798
it's

8342
01:49:03,798 --> 01:49:04,199
. Really

8343
01:49:04,199 --> 01:49:06,101
, really

8344
01:49:06,101 --> 01:49:06,401
an

8345
01:49:06,401 --> 01:49:06,902
awful

8346
01:49:06,902 --> 01:49:07,202
thing to have

8347
01:49:07,202 --> 01:49:09,202
to see

8348
01:49:09,504 --> 01:49:09,939
. An

8349
01:49:09,939 --> 01:49:10,705
accident and

8350
01:49:10,705 --> 01:49:11,207
I

8351
01:49:11,207 --> 01:49:11,740
also

8352
01:49:11,740 --> 01:49:12,740
worry about

8353
01:49:12,740 --> 01:49:13,750
the

8354
01:49:13,750 --> 01:49:14,176
chemicals

8355
01:49:14,176 --> 01:49:15,430
used to

8356
01:49:15,430 --> 01:49:15,377
make

8357
01:49:15,377 --> 01:49:16,245
the

8358
01:49:16,245 --> 01:49:16,512
fields

8359
01:49:16,512 --> 01:49:17,613
green

8360
01:49:17,613 --> 01:49:17,980
, they'll leach

8361
01:49:17,980 --> 01:49:18,280
into

8362
01:49:18,280 --> 01:49:18,714
the

8363
01:49:18,714 --> 01:49:20,820
water system

8364
01:49:20,820 --> 01:49:20,683
. And I

8365
01:49:20,683 --> 01:49:22,683
don't know how

8366
01:49:22,852 --> 01:49:23,352
how, you know,

8367
01:49:23,352 --> 01:49:24,119
people are

8368
01:49:24,119 --> 01:49:24,486
going to

8369
01:49:24,486 --> 01:49:24,821
, it's going

8370
01:49:24,821 --> 01:49:25,187
to

8371
01:49:25,187 --> 01:49:26,388
affect

8372
01:49:26,388 --> 01:49:26,722
people or or

8373
01:49:26,722 --> 01:49:27,890
the

8374
01:49:27,890 --> 01:49:28,624
animals

8375
01:49:28,624 --> 01:49:29,158
. And I

8376
01:49:29,158 --> 01:49:29,391
would just

8377
01:49:29,391 --> 01:49:29,892
, I

8378
01:49:29,892 --> 01:49:31,293
love going

8379
01:49:31,293 --> 01:49:31,627
out there

8380
01:49:31,627 --> 01:49:32,161
because

8381
01:49:32,161 --> 01:49:33,161
it's peaceful

8382
01:49:33,161 --> 01:49:33,595
, it's

8383
01:49:33,595 --> 01:49:34,300
quiet

8384
01:49:34,300 --> 01:49:34,630
, it's

8385
01:49:34,630 --> 01:49:35,331
my quiet time

8386
01:49:35,331 --> 01:49:35,731
, it's

8387
01:49:35,731 --> 01:49:36,980
green

8388
01:49:36,980 --> 01:49:36,598
space

8389
01:49:36,598 --> 01:49:37,599
I just

8390
01:49:37,599 --> 01:49:38,100
think you

8391
01:49:38,100 --> 01:49:38,801
need to

8392
01:49:38,801 --> 01:49:39,268
think

8393
01:49:39,268 --> 01:49:39,935
about

8394
01:49:39,935 --> 01:49:40,669
finding

8395
01:49:40,669 --> 01:49:41,704
an

8396
01:49:41,704 --> 01:49:42,471
area where

8397
01:49:42,471 --> 01:49:42,732
there's

8398
01:49:42,732 --> 01:49:43,272
a

8399
01:49:43,272 --> 01:49:43,739
better

8400
01:49:43,739 --> 01:49:44,340
traffic

8401
01:49:44,340 --> 01:49:44,583
flow

8402
01:49:44,583 --> 01:49:44,874
.

8403
01:49:44,874 --> 01:49:45,441
I'm

8404
01:49:45,441 --> 01:49:47,420
not against

8405
01:49:47,420 --> 01:49:47,310
Northern State.

8406
01:49:47,310 --> 01:49:47,777
I

8407
01:49:47,777 --> 01:49:49,770
think you should

8408
01:49:49,770 --> 01:49:49,745
put it on

8409
01:49:49,745 --> 01:49:50,380
the west side

8410
01:49:50,380 --> 01:49:50,980
. Of

8411
01:49:50,980 --> 01:49:51,279
Northern

8412
01:49:51,279 --> 01:49:53,279
State

8413
01:49:53,716 --> 01:49:54,117
um, because

8414
01:49:54,117 --> 01:49:54,360
of you have

8415
01:49:54,360 --> 01:49:54,784
a

8416
01:49:54,784 --> 01:49:56,520
better

8417
01:49:56,520 --> 01:49:56,217
traffic flow. You have

8418
01:49:56,217 --> 01:49:56,753
a

8419
01:49:56,753 --> 01:49:57,119
stoplight, you have

8420
01:49:57,119 --> 01:49:58,988
a

8421
01:49:58,988 --> 01:49:59,922
roundabout on 9

8422
01:49:59,922 --> 01:50:00,422
. And

8423
01:50:00,422 --> 01:50:01,900
thank you

8424
01:50:01,900 --> 01:50:03,900
Thank you, Laura

8425
01:50:03,325 --> 01:50:03,626

8429
01:50:05,594 --> 01:50:06,329
mom's

8430
01:50:06,329 --> 01:50:06,729
went ahead and she left

8431
01:50:06,729 --> 01:50:07,297
with

8432
01:50:07,297 --> 01:50:08,640
the kiddos. Ok

8433
01:50:08,640 --> 01:50:09,265

8439
01:50:16,406 --> 01:50:18,406
My baseball

8440
01:50:18,474 --> 01:50:18,842

Cathcart

8444
01:50:20,309 --> 01:50:20,810
. I've

8445
01:50:20,810 --> 01:50:21,440
lived in

8446
01:50:21,440 --> 01:50:21,611
Cer

8447
01:50:21,611 --> 01:50:21,978
Woolley

8448
01:50:21,978 --> 01:50:22,512
for almost

8449
01:50:22,512 --> 01:50:23,460
4

8450
01:50:23,460 --> 01:50:24,180
years now

8451
01:50:24,180 --> 01:50:24,447
.

8452
01:50:24,447 --> 01:50:25,150
Um

8453
01:50:25,150 --> 01:50:25,749
, I

8454
01:50:25,749 --> 01:50:26,315
know there's a lot

8455
01:50:26,315 --> 01:50:27,250
of

8456
01:50:27,250 --> 01:50:27,584
people who

8457
01:50:27,584 --> 01:50:27,917
, who do

8458
01:50:27,917 --> 01:50:29,419
play

8459
01:50:29,419 --> 01:50:30,530
sports

8460
01:50:30,530 --> 01:50:30,387
and my kids don't

8461
01:50:30,387 --> 01:50:30,820
. They

8462
01:50:30,820 --> 01:50:31,121
play

8463
01:50:31,121 --> 01:50:31,588
sports

8464
01:50:31,588 --> 01:50:32,550
for the

8465
01:50:32,550 --> 01:50:32,589
for

8466
01:50:32,589 --> 01:50:33,790
the schools

8467
01:50:33,790 --> 01:50:34,291
,

8468
01:50:34,291 --> 01:50:35,692
um, not softball

8469
01:50:35,692 --> 01:50:36,226
, um, they do

8470
01:50:36,226 --> 01:50:37,260
like

8471
01:50:37,260 --> 01:50:38,195
indoor sports

8472
01:50:38,195 --> 01:50:38,528
. I

8473
01:50:38,528 --> 01:50:39,162
played

8474
01:50:39,162 --> 01:50:39,663
softball when I was a

8475
01:50:39,663 --> 01:50:40,300
kid and

8476
01:50:40,300 --> 01:50:41,665
I

8477
01:50:41,665 --> 01:50:41,998
wasn't lucky enough to have

8478
01:50:41,998 --> 01:50:42,599
like a

8479
01:50:42,599 --> 01:50:42,806
really cool

8480
01:50:42,806 --> 01:50:43,300
brand new

8481
01:50:43,300 --> 01:50:43,567
field. We were

8482
01:50:43,567 --> 01:50:44,100
the

8483
01:50:44,100 --> 01:50:44,333
ones

8484
01:50:44,333 --> 01:50:44,601
trying

8485
01:50:44,601 --> 01:50:45,234
to

8486
01:50:45,234 --> 01:50:45,635
find a

8487
01:50:45,635 --> 01:50:45,935
place to

8488
01:50:45,935 --> 01:50:46,336
play

8489
01:50:46,336 --> 01:50:46,703
, um, go

8490
01:50:46,703 --> 01:50:47,637
to

8491
01:50:47,637 --> 01:50:48,370
other towns

8492
01:50:48,370 --> 01:50:48,278
, traveling

8493
01:50:48,278 --> 01:50:48,532
to

8494
01:50:48,532 --> 01:50:48,839
find

8495
01:50:48,839 --> 01:50:50,172
somewhere

8496
01:50:50,172 --> 01:50:50,707
to

8497
01:50:50,707 --> 01:50:51,174
practice

8498
01:50:51,174 --> 01:50:51,708
. I

8499
01:50:51,708 --> 01:50:52,109
love

8500
01:50:52,109 --> 01:50:52,576
the

8501
01:50:52,576 --> 01:50:53,760
idea

8502
01:50:53,760 --> 01:50:53,610
of

8503
01:50:53,610 --> 01:50:54,411
having

8504
01:50:54,411 --> 01:50:55,645
a

8505
01:50:55,645 --> 01:50:56,313
complex

8506
01:50:56,313 --> 01:50:57,800
where multiple

8507
01:50:57,800 --> 01:50:57,914
teams

8508
01:50:57,914 --> 01:50:58,649
and leagues can use it

8509
01:50:58,649 --> 01:50:59,149
. Um

8510
01:50:59,149 --> 01:51:00,170
,

8511
01:51:00,170 --> 01:51:01,652
it's, it brings a lot of pride

8512
01:51:01,652 --> 01:51:01,985
as

8513
01:51:01,985 --> 01:51:03,120
someone

8514
01:51:03,120 --> 01:51:03,987
remembering how

8515
01:51:03,987 --> 01:51:04,354
being embarrassed at the field

8516
01:51:04,354 --> 01:51:05,622
that

8517
01:51:05,622 --> 01:51:06,123
other away teams had to

8518
01:51:06,123 --> 01:51:06,356
come play at

8519
01:51:06,356 --> 01:51:06,756
. I

8520
01:51:06,756 --> 01:51:07,240
was embarrassed

8521
01:51:07,240 --> 01:51:07,624
as

8522
01:51:07,624 --> 01:51:08,592
a kid

8523
01:51:08,592 --> 01:51:09,590
, and my city that I

8524
01:51:09,590 --> 01:51:10,260
grew up

8525
01:51:10,260 --> 01:51:10,861
in finally

8526
01:51:10,861 --> 01:51:12,262
20 years ago

8527
01:51:12,262 --> 01:51:12,529

8531
01:51:14,465 --> 01:51:14,898
complex and

8532
01:51:14,898 --> 01:51:15,232
it's

8533
01:51:15,232 --> 01:51:15,532
attached

8534
01:51:15,532 --> 01:51:16,466
to

8535
01:51:16,466 --> 01:51:17,000
um

8536
01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:17,434
a veteran's

8537
01:51:17,434 --> 01:51:17,701
memorial. Also,

8538
01:51:17,701 --> 01:51:18,680
they

8539
01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:19,269
changed the

8540
01:51:19,269 --> 01:51:19,670

8541
01:51:19,670 --> 01:51:20,938

01:51:21,905 --> 01:51:22,272

8545
01:51:22,272 --> 01:51:22,739

8548
01:51:24,420 --> 01:51:24,475
Memorial sign

8549
01:51:24,475 --> 01:51:24,875
where you

8550
01:51:24,875 --> 01:51:25,109
could donate

8551
01:51:25,109 --> 01:51:25,809
and

8552
01:51:25,809 --> 01:51:26,843
have

8553
01:51:26,843 --> 01:51:27,211
your veterans' names put on it,

8554
01:51:27,211 --> 01:51:28,145
my grandpa

8555
01:51:28,145 --> 01:51:28,512
, my uncle

8556
01:51:28,512 --> 01:51:29,130
, um, who

8557
01:51:29,130 --> 01:51:29,547
fought in World

8558
01:51:29,547 --> 01:51:30,147
War ii are

8559
01:51:30,147 --> 01:51:30,915
up

8560
01:51:30,915 --> 01:51:31,148
there, and my dad, who's

8561
01:51:31,148 --> 01:51:32,383
a

8562
01:51:32,383 --> 01:51:32,817
veteran

8563
01:51:32,817 --> 01:51:33,383
also

8564
01:51:33,383 --> 01:51:33,850
, and it's just,

8565
01:51:33,850 --> 01:51:34,385
it's a really

8566
01:51:34,385 --> 01:51:34,585
cool sense

8567
01:51:34,585 --> 01:51:35,219
of

8568
01:51:35,219 --> 01:51:35,686
pride. They would

8569
01:51:35,686 --> 01:51:36,187
do

8570
01:51:36,187 --> 01:51:36,821
memorial

8571
01:51:36,821 --> 01:51:37,154
services there, and I

8572
01:51:37,154 --> 01:51:37,488
think

8573
01:51:37,488 --> 01:51:38,890
that's

8574
01:51:38,890 --> 01:51:38,322
something that could

8575
01:51:38,322 --> 01:51:39,190
be

8576
01:51:39,190 --> 01:51:39,523
done here

8577
01:51:39,523 --> 01:51:40,624
, like

8578
01:51:40,624 --> 01:51:41,358
integrate

8579
01:51:41,358 --> 01:51:41,692

8580
01:51:41,692 --> 01:51:42,393
at

8581
01:51:42,393 --> 01:51:43,494
this park. Um

8582
01:51:43,494 --> 01:51:44,280
.

8583
01:51:44,280 --> 01:51:44,428
Another thing, I

8584
01:51:44,428 --> 01:51:44,995
work at one of

8585
01:51:44,995 --> 01:51:45,730
the small shops

8586
01:51:45,730 --> 01:51:46,130
in

8587
01:51:46,130 --> 01:51:46,430
downtown

8588
01:51:46,430 --> 01:51:46,831
Cedro

8589
01:51:46,831 --> 01:51:47,364
Woolley

8590
01:51:47,364 --> 01:51:48,665
, and we're always

8591
01:51:48,665 --> 01:51:49,266
trying to figure out how to get

8592
01:51:49,266 --> 01:51:49,734
people to come in

8593
01:51:49,734 --> 01:51:50,534
and see

8594
01:51:50,534 --> 01:51:51,402
how

8595
01:51:51,402 --> 01:51:52,300
special our town is

8596
01:51:52,300 --> 01:51:52,503

8597
01:51:52,503 --> 01:51:52,970

8598
01:51:52,970 --> 01:51:53,237
about it's this

8599
01:51:53,237 --> 01:51:54,370
cute

8600
01:51:54,370 --> 01:51:55,139
little quaint town. I came

8601
01:51:55,139 --> 01:51:55,373
from like

8602
01:51:55,373 --> 01:51:55,940
a

8603
01:51:55,940 --> 01:51:56,541
big

8604
01:51:56,541 --> 01:51:56,710
populated area

8605
01:51:56,710 --> 01:51:56,877
,

8606
01:51:56,877 --> 01:51:57,742
so

8607
01:51:57,742 --> 01:51:58,309
I

8608
01:51:58,309 --> 01:51:58,810
love the

8609
01:51:58,810 --> 01:51:59,477
the hallmark

8610
01:51:59,477 --> 01:51:59,777
field that

8611
01:51:59,777 --> 01:52:00,912
Cedar

8612
01:52:00,912 --> 01:52:01,105
Woolley has

8613
01:52:01,105 --> 01:52:01,478
.

8614
01:52:01,478 --> 01:52:01,812
And this

8615
01:52:01,812 --> 01:52:02,379
is one

8616
01:52:02,379 --> 01:52:02,947
way that can

8617
01:52:02,947 --> 01:52:03,313
bring in

8618
01:52:03,313 --> 01:52:03,948
more

8619
01:52:03,948 --> 01:52:04,381
people

8620
01:52:04,381 --> 01:52:04,749
to help

8621
01:52:04,749 --> 01:52:04,982
support

8622
01:52:04,982 --> 01:52:05,583
the

8623
01:52:05,583 --> 01:52:06,217
small

8624
01:52:06,217 --> 01:52:07,510
businesses

8625
01:52:07,510 --> 01:52:07,618
,

8626
01:52:07,618 --> 01:52:08,520
um, more than just

8627
01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:08,686
the two or

8628
01:52:08,686 --> 01:52:09,487
three big

8629
01:52:09,487 --> 01:52:09,754
events that we have

8630
01:52:09,754 --> 01:52:10,121
a

8631
01:52:10,121 --> 01:52:10,788
year that

8632
01:52:10,788 --> 01:52:11,155
bring in a lot

8633
01:52:11,155 --> 01:52:11,489
of

8634
01:52:11,489 --> 01:52:12,560
people

8635
01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:12,623
. We just had

8636
01:52:12,623 --> 01:52:13,291
the

8637
01:52:13,291 --> 01:52:13,625
logger

8638
01:52:13,625 --> 01:52:14,425
rodeo

8639
01:52:14,425 --> 01:52:14,826
, and that was amazing

8640
01:52:14,826 --> 01:52:15,560
It

8641
01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:16,294
brought on a lot

8642
01:52:16,294 --> 01:52:16,861
of people. But

8643
01:52:16,861 --> 01:52:17,529
the business

8644
01:52:17,529 --> 01:52:17,995
is

8645
01:52:17,995 --> 01:52:18,463
downtown and

8646
01:52:18,463 --> 01:52:18,730
throughout the

8647
01:52:18,730 --> 01:52:19,970
whole

8648
01:52:19,970 --> 01:52:19,764
city

8649
01:52:19,764 --> 01:52:20,297
need

8650
01:52:20,297 --> 01:52:21,733
consistency. We

8651
01:52:21,733 --> 01:52:21,933
need

8652
01:52:21,933 --> 01:52:22,433
more,

8653
01:52:22,433 --> 01:52:23,268
something else

8654
01:52:23,268 --> 01:52:23,448
to bring

8655
01:52:23,448 --> 01:52:23,735
the

8656
01:52:23,735 --> 01:52:24,680
people

8657
01:52:24,680 --> 01:52:24,502
into our

8658
01:52:24,502 --> 01:52:24,969
town to

8659
01:52:24,969 --> 01:52:25,470
eat at

8660
01:52:25,470 --> 01:52:26,137
the

8661
01:52:26,137 --> 01:52:26,318
amazing restaurants

8662
01:52:26,318 --> 01:52:26,604
and

8663
01:52:26,604 --> 01:52:26,971
shop at

8664
01:52:26,971 --> 01:52:27,505
the small

8665
01:52:27,505 --> 01:52:27,805
shops that

8666
01:52:27,805 --> 01:52:28,939

8667
01:52:28,939 --> 01:52:29,340
have, and

8668
01:52:29,340 --> 01:52:29,774
I think it

8669
01:52:29,774 --> 01:52:30,108
would

8670
01:52:30,108 --> 01:52:30,408
just

8671
01:52:30,408 --> 01:52:30,842
bring

8672
01:52:30,842 --> 01:52:31,442
a big

8673
01:52:31,442 --> 01:52:32,510
sense

8674
01:52:32,510 --> 01:52:33,770
of

8675
01:52:33,770 --> 01:52:33,378
pride for

8676
01:52:33,378 --> 01:52:33,745
the

8677
01:52:33,745 --> 01:52:34,245
whole town

8678
01:52:34,245 --> 01:52:34,813
. And

8679
01:52:34,813 --> 01:52:35,280

and I'd like to

8705
01:53:04,142 --> 01:53:05,544
speak against

8706
01:53:05,544 --> 01:53:06,178
the proposal. I

8707
01:53:06,178 --> 01:53:07,120
think that one

8708
01:53:07,120 --> 01:53:07,846
of

8709
01:53:07,846 --> 01:53:08,446
the concerns that I have is

8710
01:53:08,446 --> 01:53:09,281
that you're going

8711
01:53:09,281 --> 01:53:09,548
to have

8712
01:53:09,548 --> 01:53:10,382
a

8713
01:53:10,382 --> 01:53:11,383
major disruption to

8714
01:53:11,383 --> 01:53:11,817
the

8715
01:53:11,817 --> 01:53:12,417
environment

8716
01:53:12,417 --> 01:53:12,650
. With

8717
01:53:12,650 --> 01:53:13,785
for

8718
01:53:13,785 --> 01:53:14,352
something

8719
01:53:14,352 --> 01:53:16,121
that's basically a

8720
01:53:16,121 --> 01:53:16,488
seasonal

8721
01:53:16,488 --> 01:53:16,955
activity

8722
01:53:16,955 --> 01:53:17,555
, so

8723
01:53:17,555 --> 01:53:17,856
I think that there

8724
01:53:17,856 --> 01:53:18,924
needs

8725
01:53:18,924 --> 01:53:19,258
to

8726
01:53:19,258 --> 01:53:19,558
be

8727
01:53:19,558 --> 01:53:21,293
a

8728
01:53:21,293 --> 01:53:21,793
broader

8729
01:53:21,793 --> 01:53:23,395
distribution of

8730
01:53:23,395 --> 01:53:23,761
the plan

8731
01:53:23,761 --> 01:53:24,262
other

8732
01:53:24,262 --> 01:53:24,711
than

8733
01:53:24,711 --> 01:53:25,196
the 30

8734
01:53:25,196 --> 01:53:26,980
year

8735
01:53:26,980 --> 01:53:27,433
old

8736
01:53:27,433 --> 01:53:28,167
original

8737
01:53:28,167 --> 01:53:29,234
um plan that the

8738
01:53:29,234 --> 01:53:29,435
county had

8739
01:53:29,435 --> 01:53:29,735
,

8740
01:53:29,735 --> 01:53:30,702
which

8741
01:53:30,702 --> 01:53:32,700
is now

8742
01:53:32,700 --> 01:53:32,605
very

8743
01:53:32,605 --> 01:53:33,505
outdated

8744
01:53:33,505 --> 01:53:34,306
and

8745
01:53:34,306 --> 01:53:34,639
um consider

8746
01:53:34,639 --> 01:53:35,307
what

8747
01:53:35,307 --> 01:53:35,841
the impact is

8748
01:53:35,841 --> 01:53:36,750
going to be

8749
01:53:36,750 --> 01:53:37,142
on

8750
01:53:37,142 --> 01:53:37,709
the

8751
01:53:37,709 --> 01:53:38,100
environment

8752
01:53:38,100 --> 01:53:38,243
and

8753
01:53:38,243 --> 01:53:39,612
on

8754
01:53:39,612 --> 01:53:39,789
the restoration

8755
01:53:39,789 --> 01:53:40,212
of

8756
01:53:40,212 --> 01:53:40,546
Hanson Creek

8757
01:53:40,546 --> 01:53:41,180
, which

8758
01:53:41,180 --> 01:53:41,747
runs right

8759
01:53:41,747 --> 01:53:42,881
along

8760
01:53:42,881 --> 01:53:43,682
the Berm, um

8761
01:53:43,682 --> 01:53:44,316
so

8762
01:53:44,316 --> 01:53:44,500
, um, I

8763
01:53:44,500 --> 01:53:44,983
,

8764
01:53:44,983 --> 01:53:45,351
for those reasons

8765
01:53:45,351 --> 01:53:45,784
, I don't

8766
01:53:45,784 --> 01:53:46,318
support

8767
01:53:46,318 --> 01:53:46,495
this effort and I

8768
01:53:46,495 --> 01:53:46,919
think

8769
01:53:46,919 --> 01:53:47,987
it needs

8770
01:53:47,987 --> 01:53:48,554
to

8771
01:53:48,554 --> 01:53:49,880
be

8772
01:53:49,880 --> 01:53:49,488
uh thought more

8773
01:53:49,488 --> 01:53:50,589
carefully

8774
01:53:50,589 --> 01:53:51,690
. Thank you, Monica

8855
01:54:39,505 --> 01:54:40,273
. The

8856
01:54:40,273 --> 01:54:40,974
resulting

8857
01:54:40,974 --> 01:54:41,374
plan has everything

8858
01:54:41,374 --> 01:54:41,941
from

8859
01:54:41,941 --> 01:54:42,575
a visitor

8860
01:54:42,575 --> 01:54:43,750

01:54:44,668 --> 01:54:45,144

01:54:45,779 --> 01:54:46,679

ball fields

8868
01:54:47,130 --> 01:54:47,680
. What we

8869
01:54:47,680 --> 01:54:48,114
didn't

8870
01:54:48,114 --> 01:54:48,581
envision was

8871
01:54:48,581 --> 01:54:49,249
a veterans

8872
01:54:49,249 --> 01:54:49,782

picnic shelter, the

8876
01:54:51,384 --> 01:54:52,850
terrific

8877
01:54:52,850 --> 01:54:52,485
trails built by

8878
01:54:52,485 --> 01:54:52,986
Jim

8879
01:54:52,986 --> 01:54:53,486

8881
01:54:53,753 --> 01:54:54,287
, the

01:54:54,287 --> 01:54:55,210

01:54:55,421 --> 01:54:55,855
course

8885
01:54:55,855 --> 01:54:56,323
. We also

8886
01:54:56,323 --> 01:54:57,357
didn't

8887
01:54:57,357 --> 01:54:58,257
foresee that so many people

8888
01:54:58,257 --> 01:54:58,658
would come to value

8889
01:54:58,658 --> 01:54:59,250
the

8890
01:54:59,250 --> 01:54:59,359
dike

8891
01:54:59,359 --> 01:54:59,692
trail

8892
01:54:59,692 --> 01:55:00,160
around

8893
01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:00,827
Helmick

8894
01:55:00,827 --> 01:55:01,161
Field as

8895
01:55:01,161 --> 01:55:01,461
a

8896
01:55:01,461 --> 01:55:01,995
place

8897
01:55:01,995 --> 01:55:02,429
to simply

8898
01:55:02,429 --> 01:55:03,630
take

8899
01:55:03,630 --> 01:55:03,630
a quiet

8900
01:55:03,630 --> 01:55:03,963
walk in

8901
01:55:03,963 --> 01:55:04,464
a

8902
01:55:04,464 --> 01:55:04,931
natural setting

8903
01:55:04,931 --> 01:55:05,598
. And

8904
01:55:05,598 --> 01:55:06,320
of course we

8905
01:55:06,320 --> 01:55:06,332
didn't foresee

8906
01:55:06,332 --> 01:55:06,600
that

8907
01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:07,166
the

8908
01:55:07,166 --> 01:55:07,467
field, together with

8909
01:55:07,467 --> 01:55:08,502
the

8910
01:55:08,502 --> 01:55:08,802
adjacent

8911
01:55:08,802 --> 01:55:09,202
wetland would

8912
01:55:09,202 --> 01:55:09,536
become the

8913
01:55:09,536 --> 01:55:10,103
best

8914
01:55:10,103 --> 01:55:10,737
habitat over

8915
01:55:10,737 --> 01:55:11,538
a

8916
01:55:11,538 --> 01:55:12,272
wide area for

8917
01:55:12,272 --> 01:55:13,139
the

8918
01:55:13,139 --> 01:55:13,573
reclusive

01:55:13,573 --> 01:55:14,140
declining

8920
01:55:14,140 --> 01:55:14,607
and

8921
01:55:14,607 --> 01:55:15,508
spectacular

8922
01:55:15,508 --> 01:55:16,410
American veteran

8923
01:55:16,410 --> 01:55:17,711
. The county

8924
01:55:17,711 --> 01:55:17,978
lacked money for all

8925
01:55:17,978 --> 01:55:18,711
the

8926
01:55:18,711 --> 01:55:20,460
planned developments. So

8927
01:55:20,460 --> 01:55:20,814
what

8928
01:55:20,814 --> 01:55:21,810
happened instead was

8929
01:55:21,810 --> 01:55:22,215
an

8930
01:55:22,215 --> 01:55:23,116
organic

8931
01:55:23,116 --> 01:55:23,517
evolution whereby people with

8932
01:55:23,517 --> 01:55:24,851
many

8933
01:55:24,851 --> 01:55:25,850
different

8934
01:55:25,850 --> 01:55:25,752
interests

8935
01:55:25,752 --> 01:55:26,520
discovered and came to

8936
01:55:26,520 --> 01:55:26,820
love

8937
01:55:26,820 --> 01:55:27,221
the

8938
01:55:27,221 --> 01:55:27,454
park just

8939
01:55:27,454 --> 01:55:27,921
as

8940
01:55:27,921 --> 01:55:28,288
it is

8941
01:55:28,288 --> 01:55:28,922
with

8942
01:55:28,922 --> 01:55:29,590
those

8943
01:55:29,590 --> 01:55:29,957
few

8944
01:55:29,957 --> 01:55:30,424
carefully

8945
01:55:30,424 --> 01:55:30,858
considered

8946
01:55:30,858 --> 01:55:32,250
developments

8947
01:55:32,250 --> 01:55:32,493
. There are few

8948
01:55:32,493 --> 01:55:34,493
places in

8949
01:55:34,695 --> 01:55:35,295
Skagit County where

8950
01:55:35,295 --> 01:55:35,762
many people can

8951
01:55:35,762 --> 01:55:35,971
simply take

8952
01:55:35,971 --> 01:55:36,296
a

8953
01:55:36,296 --> 01:55:37,431
walk in a

8954
01:55:37,431 --> 01:55:37,964
natural setting close

8955
01:55:37,964 --> 01:55:38,498
to

8956
01:55:38,498 --> 01:55:38,898
home. For

8957
01:55:38,898 --> 01:55:39,399
those of

8958
01:55:39,399 --> 01:55:40,200
us who

8959
01:55:40,200 --> 01:55:40,500
care about birds and

8960
01:55:40,500 --> 01:55:40,868
other

8961
01:55:40,868 --> 01:55:41,835
wildlife

8962
01:55:41,835 --> 01:55:42,268
, their presence is

8963
01:55:42,268 --> 01:55:42,802
a

8964
01:55:42,802 --> 01:55:43,237
big

8965
01:55:43,237 --> 01:55:43,904
bonus

8966
01:55:43,904 --> 01:55:44,204
. We're proud to live

8967
01:55:44,204 --> 01:55:44,738
in a

8968
01:55:44,738 --> 01:55:45,720
county

8969
01:55:45,720 --> 01:55:45,572
that

8970
01:55:45,572 --> 01:55:46,773
values

8971
01:55:46,773 --> 01:55:47,207
wildlife habitat

8972
01:55:47,207 --> 01:55:47,507
and that

8973
01:55:47,507 --> 01:55:47,841
cares

8974
01:55:47,841 --> 01:55:48,108
about

8975
01:55:48,108 --> 01:55:48,676
the

8976
01:55:48,676 --> 01:55:49,309
healthful

8977
01:55:49,309 --> 01:55:49,710
effects

8978
01:55:49,710 --> 01:55:50,244
of

8979
01:55:50,244 --> 01:55:50,744
time

8980
01:55:50,744 --> 01:55:51,545
spent in nature

8981
01:55:51,545 --> 01:55:51,779
. There

8982
01:55:51,779 --> 01:55:52,680
are

8983
01:55:52,680 --> 01:55:53,947
many places in Cedral Wooley

8984
01:55:53,947 --> 01:55:54,448
Ball fields could

8985
01:55:54,448 --> 01:55:54,849
be built.

8986
01:55:54,849 --> 01:55:55,849
They would

8987
01:55:55,849 --> 01:55:56,250
improve

8988
01:55:56,250 --> 01:55:56,884
those long

8989
01:55:56,884 --> 01:55:58,285
vacant

8990
01:55:58,285 --> 01:55:58,652
industrial lots

8991
01:55:58,652 --> 01:55:59,120
. Had

8992
01:55:59,120 --> 01:55:59,687
Northern State

8993
01:55:59,687 --> 01:56:01,221
, Ball fields

8994
01:56:01,221 --> 01:56:02,489
would displace the enjoyment

8995
01:56:02,489 --> 01:56:02,890
of

8996
01:56:02,890 --> 01:56:03,190
people who

8997
01:56:03,190 --> 01:56:03,491
for the

8998
01:56:03,491 --> 01:56:04,224
last

8999
01:56:04,224 --> 01:56:04,591
quarter

9000
01:56:04,591 --> 01:56:05,920
century

9001
01:56:05,920 --> 01:56:05,459
have been

9002
01:56:05,459 --> 01:56:05,926
walking

9003
01:56:05,926 --> 01:56:06,393
around

9004
01:56:06,393 --> 01:56:06,760
Helmick Field

9005
01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:07,361
to simply

9006
01:56:07,361 --> 01:56:07,795
get a

9007
01:56:07,795 --> 01:56:08,195
taste

9008
01:56:08,195 --> 01:56:08,662
of

9009
01:56:08,662 --> 01:56:09,430
nature

9010
01:56:09,430 --> 01:56:09,730
. They

9011
01:56:09,730 --> 01:56:10,164
are

9012
01:56:10,164 --> 01:56:10,531
stakeholders

9013
01:56:10,531 --> 01:56:11,310
in their

9014
01:56:11,310 --> 01:56:11,632
county

9015
01:56:11,632 --> 01:56:12,990
park

9016
01:56:12,990 --> 01:56:12,633
, and

9017
01:56:12,633 --> 01:56:13,200
their

9018
01:56:13,200 --> 01:56:13,701
experience

9019
01:56:13,701 --> 01:56:14,168
deserves to

9020
01:56:14,168 --> 01:56:15,690
be

9021
01:56:15,690 --> 01:56:15,369
respected. Thank

9022
01:56:15,369 --> 01:56:15,936
you

9023
01:56:15,936 --> 01:56:16,203
. Thanks

9024
01:56:16,203 --> 01:56:16,537
, Jim

9025
01:56:16,537 --> 01:56:16,837
. Perfect

9026
01:56:16,837 --> 01:56:17,538
.

9027
01:56:17,538 --> 01:56:18,572
Darlene Snipes, and then

9028
01:56:18,572 --> 01:56:19,407
David

9029
01:56:19,407 --> 01:56:20,474
Bartholomeuss. I don't use

9030
01:56:20,474 --> 01:56:21,108
.

9031
01:56:21,108 --> 01:56:23,508
David? Yeah. Ok Great

9032
01:56:23,811 --> 01:56:24,144
. Darlene

9033
01:56:24,144 --> 01:56:25,279
Snipes

9034
01:56:25,279 --> 01:56:25,580
Nope

9035
01:56:25,580 --> 01:56:25,979
. Nope

9036
01:56:25,979 --> 01:56:26,247
. Ok. It

9037
01:56:26,247 --> 01:56:27,882
looks

9038
01:56:27,882 --> 01:56:28,616
like

9039
01:56:28,616 --> 01:56:29,617
we're winding it down

9040
01:56:29,617 --> 01:56:29,984
. Ron

9041
01:56:29,984 --> 01:56:31,984
Peterson

9042
01:56:32,187 --> 01:56:32,820
. You ok, Ron

9043
01:56:32,820 --> 01:56:34,188
Uh

9044
01:56:34,188 --> 01:56:34,555
, Keith

9045
01:56:34,555 --> 01:56:36,391
Wiggins

9046
01:56:36,391 --> 01:56:36,724
And

9047
01:56:36,724 --> 01:56:37,224
then

9048
01:56:37,224 --> 01:56:37,458
after

9049
01:56:37,458 --> 01:56:37,759
Keith on

9050
01:56:37,759 --> 01:56:39,930
deck

9051
01:56:39,930 --> 01:56:40,161
, Tonya Wills

9052
01:56:40,161 --> 01:56:41,328
. You don't

9053
01:56:41,328 --> 01:56:41,829
don't ok

9054
01:56:41,829 --> 01:56:43,829
Thank you

9055
01:56:43,865 --> 01:56:44,332
. I'm

9056
01:56:44,332 --> 01:56:45,700
Keith

9057
01:56:45,700 --> 01:56:46,166
Wieters Burlington

9058
01:56:46,166 --> 01:56:46,341
. And this

9059
01:56:46,341 --> 01:56:46,701
is

9060
01:56:46,701 --> 01:56:47,868
impromptu

9061
01:56:47,868 --> 01:56:48,470
I do

9062
01:56:48,470 --> 01:56:49,737
have

9063
01:56:49,737 --> 01:56:50,505
sympathy

9064
01:56:50,505 --> 01:56:51,172
and understand the concerns of

9065
01:56:51,172 --> 01:56:52,140
the people who want the

9066
01:56:52,140 --> 01:56:52,573
ball

9067
01:56:52,573 --> 01:56:53,842
field at

9068
01:56:53,842 --> 01:56:54,675
Northern

9069
01:56:54,675 --> 01:56:55,310
State and

9070
01:56:55,310 --> 01:56:55,610
it's really great for

9071
01:56:55,610 --> 01:56:55,877
kids and

9072
01:56:55,877 --> 01:56:56,578
he

9073
01:56:56,578 --> 01:56:57,178
teaches

9074
01:56:57,178 --> 01:56:57,345
them mostly

9075
01:56:57,345 --> 01:56:57,979
good

9076
01:56:57,979 --> 01:56:58,580
sportsmanship. Every once in a

9077
01:56:58,580 --> 01:56:58,880
while you hear about

9078
01:56:58,880 --> 01:56:59,947
the

9079
01:56:59,947 --> 01:57:00,415
parents fighting in the stands

9080
01:57:00,415 --> 01:57:00,715
,

9081
01:57:00,715 --> 01:57:01,683
but

9082
01:57:01,683 --> 01:57:02,217
that doesn't happen too

9083
01:57:02,217 --> 01:57:02,684
often, does it? Probably

9084
01:57:02,684 --> 01:57:03,818
doesn't ever

9085
01:57:03,818 --> 01:57:04,119
happen here, but I

9086
01:57:04,119 --> 01:57:04,519
do

9087
01:57:04,519 --> 01:57:06,287
have concern

9088
01:57:06,287 --> 01:57:06,555
, um, I do

9089
01:57:06,555 --> 01:57:07,220
agree

9090
01:57:07,220 --> 01:57:08,323
with the

9091
01:57:08,323 --> 01:57:08,657
, uh, it

9092
01:57:08,657 --> 01:57:08,990
probably will

9093
01:57:08,990 --> 01:57:09,557
impact

9094
01:57:09,557 --> 01:57:10,792
a bidders

9095
01:57:10,792 --> 01:57:11,920
, and that's

9096
01:57:11,920 --> 01:57:11,459
a

9097
01:57:11,459 --> 01:57:12,527
problem

9098
01:57:12,527 --> 01:57:12,994
. I know they're

9099
01:57:12,994 --> 01:57:13,395
not

9100
01:57:13,395 --> 01:57:14,950
endangered

9101
01:57:14,950 --> 01:57:14,429
, but everything,

9102
01:57:14,429 --> 01:57:15,429
almost

9103
01:57:15,429 --> 01:57:16,300
all birds

9104
01:57:16,300 --> 01:57:16,465
are

9105
01:57:16,465 --> 01:57:16,731
diminishing

9106
01:57:16,731 --> 01:57:17,650
. You

9107
01:57:17,650 --> 01:57:17,999
know,

9108
01:57:17,999 --> 01:57:18,800
everybody says, well, they can

9109
01:57:18,800 --> 01:57:19,534
go someplace else

9110
01:57:19,534 --> 01:57:19,901
, but usually

9111
01:57:19,901 --> 01:57:20,268
there

9112
01:57:20,268 --> 01:57:20,702
someplace

9113
01:57:20,702 --> 01:57:21,102
elses

9114
01:57:21,102 --> 01:57:21,802
are

9115
01:57:21,802 --> 01:57:22,237
disappearing

9116
01:57:22,237 --> 01:57:22,704
also. So like

9117
01:57:22,704 --> 01:57:23,171
having our

9118
01:57:23,171 --> 01:57:23,374
house burned

9119
01:57:23,374 --> 01:57:23,638
down

9120
01:57:23,638 --> 01:57:24,105
and

9121
01:57:24,105 --> 01:57:24,539
no insurance

9122
01:57:24,539 --> 01:57:25,600
and no

9123
01:57:25,600 --> 01:57:25,674
support

9124
01:57:25,674 --> 01:57:26,108
group, where

9125
01:57:26,108 --> 01:57:26,408
do you go

9126
01:57:26,408 --> 01:57:26,708
? They

9127
01:57:26,708 --> 01:57:27,109
just

9128
01:57:27,109 --> 01:57:27,508
don't make

9129
01:57:27,508 --> 01:57:28,910
it anymore

9130
01:57:28,910 --> 01:57:29,444
. But

9131
01:57:29,444 --> 01:57:30,345
besides that, I

9132
01:57:30,345 --> 01:57:30,645
have a

9133
01:57:30,645 --> 01:57:31,447
concern

9134
01:57:31,447 --> 01:57:32,848
about

9135
01:57:32,848 --> 01:57:33,280
um always

9136
01:57:33,280 --> 01:57:33,715
support

9137
01:57:33,715 --> 01:57:35,249
partnerships, county and the

9138
01:57:35,249 --> 01:57:35,784
cities

9139
01:57:35,784 --> 01:57:36,151
and everybody else

9140
01:57:36,151 --> 01:57:36,485
. I

9141
01:57:36,485 --> 01:57:36,985
always

9142
01:57:36,985 --> 01:57:37,319
worry

9143
01:57:37,319 --> 01:57:37,619
on

9144
01:57:37,619 --> 01:57:37,953
how

9145
01:57:37,953 --> 01:57:38,620
those

9146
01:57:38,620 --> 01:57:39,421
relationships go. I

9147
01:57:39,421 --> 01:57:39,688
don't

9148
01:57:39,688 --> 01:57:40,154
want

9149
01:57:40,154 --> 01:57:40,822
to see

9150
01:57:40,822 --> 01:57:41,623
more burden

9151
01:57:41,623 --> 01:57:42,124
being

9152
01:57:42,124 --> 01:57:42,423
shifted off to

9153
01:57:42,423 --> 01:57:43,659
the

9154
01:57:43,659 --> 01:57:44,159
county

9155
01:57:44,159 --> 01:57:44,626
probably MAY not

9156
01:57:44,626 --> 01:57:44,926
happen early

9157
01:57:44,926 --> 01:57:45,194
on

9158
01:57:45,194 --> 01:57:46,161
, but

9159
01:57:46,161 --> 01:57:46,561
later

9160
01:57:46,561 --> 01:57:46,962
on the

9161
01:57:46,962 --> 01:57:47,496
county has

9162
01:57:47,496 --> 01:57:47,996
to spend more and

9163
01:57:47,996 --> 01:57:48,964
more money on

9164
01:57:48,964 --> 01:57:49,464
it, more

9165
01:57:49,464 --> 01:57:50,232
and more time

9166
01:57:50,232 --> 01:57:50,532
, and

9167
01:57:50,532 --> 01:57:50,866
I

9168
01:57:50,866 --> 01:57:51,734
think

9169
01:57:51,734 --> 01:57:52,434
the parts department, the

9170
01:57:52,434 --> 01:57:53,680
county

9171
01:57:53,680 --> 01:57:53,969
park departments

9172
01:57:53,969 --> 01:57:54,703
are

9173
01:57:54,703 --> 01:57:55,300
already

9174
01:57:55,300 --> 01:57:56,380
pretty

9175
01:57:56,380 --> 01:57:56,604
well burdened,

9176
01:57:56,604 --> 01:57:57,380
and I think they

9177
01:57:57,380 --> 01:57:57,506
have

9178
01:57:57,506 --> 01:57:58,240
more

9179
01:57:58,240 --> 01:57:58,707
important places that

9180
01:57:58,707 --> 01:57:59,107
they want

9181
01:57:59,107 --> 01:57:59,641
to

9182
01:57:59,641 --> 01:58:00,142
spend time

9183
01:58:00,142 --> 01:58:00,943
Big Rock

9184
01:58:00,943 --> 01:58:01,310
, for

9185
01:58:01,310 --> 01:58:02,678
instance

9186
01:58:02,678 --> 01:58:03,440
, um, so I

9187
01:58:03,440 --> 01:58:03,345
wouldn't

9188
01:58:03,345 --> 01:58:03,712
have

9189
01:58:03,712 --> 01:58:04,179
, wouldn't

9190
01:58:04,179 --> 01:58:05,314
want

9191
01:58:05,314 --> 01:58:05,848
that

9192
01:58:05,848 --> 01:58:06,810
responsibility to

9193
01:58:06,810 --> 01:58:07,249
be

9194
01:58:07,249 --> 01:58:07,549
shifted

9195
01:58:07,549 --> 01:58:08,170
over

9196
01:58:08,170 --> 01:58:08,450
. I

9197
01:58:08,450 --> 01:58:08,785
don't

9198
01:58:08,785 --> 01:58:09,510
know

9199
01:58:09,510 --> 01:58:09,485
personally

9200
01:58:09,485 --> 01:58:09,885
where other

9201
01:58:09,885 --> 01:58:10,585
opportunities are,

9202
01:58:10,585 --> 01:58:10,886
but I've been told there are

9203
01:58:10,886 --> 01:58:11,152
some

9204
01:58:11,152 --> 01:58:11,719
other

9205
01:58:11,719 --> 01:58:12,154
opportunities, maybe

9206
01:58:12,154 --> 01:58:12,555
not all in

9207
01:58:12,555 --> 01:58:13,880
one place

9208
01:58:13,880 --> 01:58:13,622
, maybe

9209
01:58:13,622 --> 01:58:13,922
have to have

9210
01:58:13,922 --> 01:58:14,489
a belt

9211
01:58:14,489 --> 01:58:14,823
, um, ball

9212
01:58:14,823 --> 01:58:15,957
field

9213
01:58:15,957 --> 01:58:16,291
here in ball field there

9214
01:58:16,291 --> 01:58:16,592
.

9215
01:58:16,592 --> 01:58:17,659
Some

9216
01:58:17,659 --> 01:58:17,927
ways that

9217
01:58:17,927 --> 01:58:18,360
might

9218
01:58:18,360 --> 01:58:20,262
be better

9219
01:58:20,262 --> 01:58:20,762
.

9220
01:58:20,762 --> 01:58:21,290
There's one of

9221
01:58:21,290 --> 01:58:22,331
the

9222
01:58:22,331 --> 01:58:23,320
important

9223
01:58:23,320 --> 01:58:23,206
and Tim just brought

9224
01:58:23,206 --> 01:58:23,532
up

9225
01:58:23,532 --> 01:58:24,400
something

9226
01:58:24,400 --> 01:58:24,700
too that

9227
01:58:24,700 --> 01:58:24,966
I think

9228
01:58:24,966 --> 01:58:26,966
is

9229
01:58:27,269 --> 01:58:28,471
really important just like

9230
01:58:28,471 --> 01:58:29,705
nesting habitat for

9231
01:58:29,705 --> 01:58:30,273
birds that

9232
01:58:30,273 --> 01:58:30,806
if they're removed

9233
01:58:30,806 --> 01:58:31,107
, they're

9234
01:58:31,107 --> 01:58:31,407
gone

9235
01:58:31,407 --> 01:58:31,808
. They

9236
01:58:31,808 --> 01:58:32,208
are

9237
01:58:32,208 --> 01:58:32,708
not

9238
01:58:32,708 --> 01:58:33,475
many

9239
01:58:33,475 --> 01:58:34,677
quiet

9240
01:58:34,677 --> 01:58:35,211
places that people go out and

9241
01:58:35,211 --> 01:58:35,678
take

9242
01:58:35,678 --> 01:58:36,145
a walk

9243
01:58:36,145 --> 01:58:36,712
, and

9244
01:58:36,712 --> 01:58:37,346
that's

9245
01:58:37,346 --> 01:58:39,181
really

9246
01:58:39,181 --> 01:58:40,917
important and

9247
01:58:40,917 --> 01:58:41,483
as mentioned

9248
01:58:41,483 --> 01:58:42,510
,

9249
01:58:42,510 --> 01:58:42,752
lots of people who are out

9250
01:58:42,752 --> 01:58:43,119
there. I have a friend who used

9251
01:58:43,119 --> 01:58:45,119
to treat

9252
01:58:46,122 --> 01:58:46,856
, uh, um, track

9253
01:58:46,856 --> 01:58:47,857
or

9254
01:58:47,857 --> 01:58:48,524
uh

9255
01:58:48,524 --> 01:58:49,558
his schoolgirls, they go

9256
01:58:49,558 --> 01:58:50,590
there,

9257
01:58:50,590 --> 01:58:50,559
the, what you

9258
01:58:50,559 --> 01:58:52,328
call it

9259
01:58:52,328 --> 01:58:52,762
, frisbee

9260
01:58:52,762 --> 01:58:53,195
golf

9261
01:58:53,195 --> 01:58:53,363
, horse riding

9262
01:58:53,363 --> 01:58:54,970
, our

9263
01:58:54,970 --> 01:58:54,863
neighborhood, we just talked to

9264
01:58:54,863 --> 01:58:55,498
our neighbor about this

9265
01:58:55,498 --> 01:58:56,165
just

9266
01:58:56,165 --> 01:58:56,432
yesterday and she said

9267
01:58:56,432 --> 01:58:57,670
, that's

9268
01:58:57,670 --> 01:58:57,467
so nice. You out

9269
01:58:57,467 --> 01:58:57,968
there's no

9270
01:58:57,968 --> 01:58:58,634
crowds

9271
01:58:58,634 --> 01:58:59,401
. It's

9272
01:58:59,401 --> 01:58:59,575
quiet. There's

9273
01:58:59,575 --> 01:58:59,836
not

9274
01:58:59,836 --> 01:59:00,303
many

9275
01:59:00,303 --> 01:59:00,837
places

9276
01:59:00,837 --> 01:59:01,705
like that

9277
01:59:01,705 --> 01:59:01,971
, and

9278
01:59:01,971 --> 01:59:02,305
I

9279
01:59:02,305 --> 01:59:03,439
think

9280
01:59:03,439 --> 01:59:04,174
that's probably

9281
01:59:04,174 --> 01:59:05,341
my

9282
01:59:05,341 --> 01:59:05,842
biggest

9283
01:59:05,842 --> 01:59:06,342
argument is

9284
01:59:06,342 --> 01:59:06,776
you just

9285
01:59:06,776 --> 01:59:07,344
take

9286
01:59:07,344 --> 01:59:07,877
that away

9287
01:59:07,877 --> 01:59:08,278
. There is

9288
01:59:08,278 --> 01:59:09,112
no

9289
01:59:09,112 --> 01:59:09,479
other place just

9290
01:59:09,479 --> 01:59:09,779
like you, like

9291
01:59:09,779 --> 01:59:10,113
I say

9292
01:59:10,113 --> 01:59:10,580
, you did

9293
01:59:10,580 --> 01:59:11,280
take

9294
01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:11,681
a nesting

9295
01:59:11,681 --> 01:59:12,581
area away

9296
01:59:12,581 --> 01:59:13,820
There isn't another

9297
01:59:13,820 --> 01:59:13,583
place to

9298
01:59:13,583 --> 01:59:13,883
go, and

9299
01:59:13,883 --> 01:59:14,617
that's

9300
01:59:14,617 --> 01:59:14,850
disappearing rapidly. So

9301
01:59:14,850 --> 01:59:15,840
I'd

9302
01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:15,618
,

9303
01:59:15,618 --> 01:59:16,352
I'd really like

9304
01:59:16,352 --> 01:59:17,387
to

9305
01:59:17,387 --> 01:59:17,921
see

9306
01:59:17,921 --> 01:59:18,521
encourage trying

9307
01:59:18,521 --> 01:59:18,789
to find

9308
01:59:18,789 --> 01:59:19,589
an

9309
01:59:19,589 --> 01:59:19,956
alternative

9310
01:59:19,956 --> 01:59:20,390
to it

9311
01:59:20,390 --> 01:59:20,790
. It

9312
01:59:20,790 --> 01:59:21,124
just

9313
01:59:21,124 --> 01:59:21,491
would

9314
01:59:21,491 --> 01:59:21,925
change the

9315
01:59:21,925 --> 01:59:22,325
whole tenure

9316
01:59:22,325 --> 01:59:23,259
of

9317
01:59:23,259 --> 01:59:23,727
that area

9318
01:59:23,727 --> 01:59:25,727
. Thank you

9319
01:59:25,895 --> 01:59:26,462
. All

9320
01:59:26,462 --> 01:59:27,564
right. And finally

9321
01:59:27,564 --> 01:59:28,131
, before we

9322
01:59:28,131 --> 01:59:28,732
go back to Online

9323
01:59:28,732 --> 01:59:29,990
, uh, Keith

9324
01:59:29,990 --> 01:59:30,433
Wiggins

9325
01:59:30,433 --> 01:59:31,868

public record

9386
02:00:12,810 --> 02:00:13,760
but I'd

9387
02:00:13,760 --> 02:00:13,477
like

9388
02:00:13,477 --> 02:00:14,445
to

9389
02:00:14,445 --> 02:00:14,912
highlight just

9390
02:00:14,912 --> 02:00:15,245

9391
02:00:15,245 --> 02:00:15,813
few

9392
02:00:15,813 --> 02:00:17,381
important points

9393
02:00:17,381 --> 02:00:17,561
. Uh

9394
02:00:17,561 --> 02:00:18,282
, the

9395
02:00:18,282 --> 02:00:19,383
current Skagit County Parks

9396
02:00:19,383 --> 02:00:20,551
and

9397
02:00:20,551 --> 02:00:21,151
Recreation Comprehensive Plan

9398
02:00:21,151 --> 02:00:23,530
was adopted in APRIL

9399
02:00:23,530 --> 02:00:23,621
of 2022

9400
02:00:23,621 --> 02:00:24,354
.

9401
02:00:24,354 --> 02:00:24,988
And although only a few years

9402
02:00:24,988 --> 02:00:25,255
have passed, it remains

9403
02:00:25,255 --> 02:00:26,290
the

9404
02:00:26,290 --> 02:00:26,623
county's

9405
02:00:26,623 --> 02:00:26,891
guiding

9406
02:00:26,891 --> 02:00:27,491
policy

9407
02:00:27,491 --> 02:00:28,259
document for parks

9408
02:00:28,259 --> 02:00:28,926
and

9409
02:00:28,926 --> 02:00:29,527
recreation planning

9410
02:00:29,527 --> 02:00:30,940
.

9411
02:00:30,940 --> 02:00:30,761
Comprehensive plans

9412
02:00:30,761 --> 02:00:31,362
are

9413
02:00:31,362 --> 02:00:31,562
intended to guide the

9414
02:00:31,562 --> 02:00:32,290
decisions

9415
02:00:32,290 --> 02:00:33,300
we make as

9416
02:00:33,300 --> 02:00:33,210
public officials

9417
02:00:33,210 --> 02:00:33,430
.

9418
02:00:33,430 --> 02:00:33,763
And

9419
02:00:33,763 --> 02:00:34,650
I believe

9420
02:00:34,650 --> 02:00:34,365
it's important

9421
02:00:34,365 --> 02:00:35,320
that

9422
02:00:35,320 --> 02:00:35,399
our

9423
02:00:35,399 --> 02:00:35,633
actions

9424
02:00:35,633 --> 02:00:36,266
remain

9425
02:00:36,266 --> 02:00:36,667
consistent with the policies

9426
02:00:36,667 --> 02:00:37,768
that we've

9427
02:00:37,768 --> 02:00:38,100
already adopted

9428
02:00:38,100 --> 02:00:38,335
. I'd

9429
02:00:38,335 --> 02:00:39,837
like

9430
02:00:39,837 --> 02:00:40,437
to briefly reference

9431
02:00:40,437 --> 02:00:40,804

that

9699
02:03:28,107 --> 02:03:28,508
and

9700
02:03:28,508 --> 02:03:28,774
, and use

9701
02:03:28,774 --> 02:03:29,476
and

9702
02:03:29,476 --> 02:03:29,809
the northern state

9703
02:03:29,809 --> 02:03:30,176
was

9704
02:03:30,176 --> 02:03:30,334
instead

9705
02:03:30,334 --> 02:03:30,576
,

9706
02:03:30,576 --> 02:03:31,244
I'm a

9707
02:03:31,244 --> 02:03:31,511
big proponent

9708
02:03:31,511 --> 02:03:31,945

02:03:31,945 --> 02:03:32,412
you fall

9710
02:03:32,412 --> 02:03:33,813
fields. I

9711
02:03:33,813 --> 02:03:34,114
was literally

9712
02:03:34,114 --> 02:03:34,614
soccer

9713
02:03:34,614 --> 02:03:35,748

9714
02:03:35,748 --> 02:03:36,182
basketball coach and

9715
02:03:36,182 --> 02:03:36,482

9716
02:03:36,482 --> 02:03:36,816
only

9717
02:03:36,816 --> 02:03:37,216
for over

9718
02:03:37,216 --> 02:03:38,117
12 years

9719
02:03:38,117 --> 02:03:38,417

9720
02:03:38,417 --> 02:03:38,684

town, and

9725
02:03:40,553 --> 02:03:41,530
I think

9726
02:03:41,530 --> 02:03:41,387
the kids would

9727
02:03:41,387 --> 02:03:43,387
be

9728
02:03:43,756 --> 02:03:44,157
better

02:03:44,157 --> 02:03:44,491

9730
02:03:44,491 --> 02:03:45,124

02:03:45,124 --> 02:03:45,759

9733
02:03:46,192 --> 02:03:46,726
at Winny

9734
02:03:46,726 --> 02:03:47,193
house where

9735
02:03:47,193 --> 02:03:47,560
they can

9736
02:03:47,560 --> 02:03:48,280
ride

9737
02:03:48,280 --> 02:03:48,527
their

9738
02:03:48,527 --> 02:03:48,828
bikes

9739
02:03:48,828 --> 02:03:49,295
.

9740
02:03:49,295 --> 02:03:50,130
There's some

9741
02:03:50,130 --> 02:03:50,964
kids that

9742
02:03:50,964 --> 02:03:51,798
don't

9743
02:03:51,798 --> 02:03:52,498
have transportation

9744
02:03:52,498 --> 02:03:52,932
. I

9745
02:03:52,932 --> 02:03:53,233
, when I

9746
02:03:53,233 --> 02:03:54,267
was

9747
02:03:54,267 --> 02:03:54,668
a basketball coach

9748
02:03:54,668 --> 02:03:55,235
, I used

9749
02:03:55,235 --> 02:03:55,802
to give

9750
02:03:55,802 --> 02:03:56,335
kids rides

9751
02:03:56,335 --> 02:03:56,803
cause

9752
02:03:56,803 --> 02:03:57,470
their

9753
02:03:57,470 --> 02:03:57,971
parents couldn't get them

9754
02:03:57,971 --> 02:03:58,205
places. And I

9755
02:03:58,205 --> 02:03:58,504
, I

9756
02:03:58,504 --> 02:03:58,663
know

9757
02:03:58,663 --> 02:03:59,720
our

9758
02:03:59,720 --> 02:03:59,405
coaches still

9759
02:03:59,405 --> 02:03:59,673
do that

9760
02:03:59,673 --> 02:03:59,836
, but

9761
02:03:59,836 --> 02:04:00,440
I

9762
02:04:00,440 --> 02:04:00,806
really think that

9763
02:04:00,806 --> 02:04:01,675
the

9764
02:04:01,675 --> 02:04:02,375
Winniehauser site is in town

9765
02:04:02,375 --> 02:04:02,909
.

9766
02:04:02,909 --> 02:04:03,276
It'll be

9767
02:04:03,276 --> 02:04:04,410
safer

9768
02:04:04,410 --> 02:04:04,877
. Our

9769
02:04:04,877 --> 02:04:05,244
public

9770
02:04:05,244 --> 02:04:05,645

9773
02:04:06,747 --> 02:04:07,280
already

9774
02:04:07,280 --> 02:04:07,614

9775
02:04:07,614 --> 02:04:08,480

9777
02:04:08,648 --> 02:04:08,915
fields there

9778
02:04:08,915 --> 02:04:09,283
.

9779
02:04:09,283 --> 02:04:09,582
I don't

9780
02:04:09,582 --> 02:04:09,916
see the

9781
02:04:09,916 --> 02:04:10,483
point

9782
02:04:10,483 --> 02:04:11,170
of going

9783
02:04:11,170 --> 02:04:11,418

9784
02:04:11,418 --> 02:04:12,319
leaving

9785
02:04:12,319 --> 02:04:12,585
the city to

9786
02:04:12,585 --> 02:04:13,530

9792
02:04:16,890 --> 02:04:16,390
just doesn't

9793
02:04:16,390 --> 02:04:16,956

02:05:53,988 --> 02:05:54,688
all

9938
02:05:54,688 --> 02:05:55,390
throughout life

9939
02:05:55,390 --> 02:05:55,724
. But

9940
02:05:55,724 --> 02:05:56,191
I would

9941
02:05:56,191 --> 02:05:57,910
never have

9942
02:05:57,910 --> 02:05:57,491
encouraged them to

9943
02:05:57,491 --> 02:05:57,926
do that at

9944
02:05:57,926 --> 02:05:58,159
the cost

9945
02:05:58,159 --> 02:05:59,294
of

9946
02:05:59,294 --> 02:06:00,610
the

9947
02:06:00,610 --> 02:06:00,662
preservation of

9948
02:06:00,662 --> 02:06:01,896
something wild

9949
02:06:01,896 --> 02:06:02,330
and beautiful

9950
02:06:02,330 --> 02:06:02,730
. I

9951
02:06:02,730 --> 02:06:03,731
, uh, I

9952
02:06:03,731 --> 02:06:04,165
hope

9953
02:06:04,165 --> 02:06:04,566
that there is

9954
02:06:04,566 --> 02:06:04,866
another option.

9955
02:06:04,866 --> 02:06:06,670
Um, I

9956
02:06:06,670 --> 02:06:06,868
would love

9957
02:06:06,868 --> 02:06:07,135
to see

9958
02:06:07,135 --> 02:06:08,937
both

9959
02:06:08,937 --> 02:06:09,109
the wildlife gained from

9960
02:06:09,109 --> 02:06:09,570
this,

9961
02:06:09,570 --> 02:06:10,710
as well as

9962
02:06:10,710 --> 02:06:11,573
the children

9963
02:06:11,573 --> 02:06:11,839
. Thank

9964
02:06:11,839 --> 02:06:13,839
you

9965
02:06:13,975 --> 02:06:15,510
Anybody else in the room

9966
02:06:15,510 --> 02:06:15,877
to

9967
02:06:15,877 --> 02:06:17,312
comment

9968
02:06:17,312 --> 02:06:19,312
? It

9969
02:06:22,784 --> 02:06:23,952
Troy

9970
02:06:23,952 --> 02:06:24,285
Hansen

9971
02:06:24,285 --> 02:06:24,586
Cedroley

9972
02:06:24,586 --> 02:06:26,586
, um

9973
02:06:26,955 --> 02:06:27,189
, talking

9974
02:06:27,189 --> 02:06:27,856
about

9975
02:06:27,856 --> 02:06:28,757
wild and scenic, and I

9976
02:06:28,757 --> 02:06:29,358
, I

9977
02:06:29,358 --> 02:06:31,460
totally agree with it

9978
02:06:31,460 --> 02:06:31,926
. For 100

9979
02:06:31,926 --> 02:06:32,961
years that was

9980
02:06:32,961 --> 02:06:33,228
Northern

9981
02:06:33,228 --> 02:06:33,662
state's

9982
02:06:33,662 --> 02:06:34,950
cow fields

9983
02:06:34,950 --> 02:06:35,330
. And

9984
02:06:35,330 --> 02:06:35,730
it was

9985
02:06:35,730 --> 02:06:36,398
Northern

9986
02:06:36,398 --> 02:06:37,732
states Gardens, and

9987
02:06:37,732 --> 02:06:38,400
states

9988
02:06:38,400 --> 02:06:38,667
orchards. We ripped all

9989
02:06:38,667 --> 02:06:39,134
those

9990
02:06:39,134 --> 02:06:40,269
out to make

9991
02:06:40,269 --> 02:06:40,469
alluvial

9992
02:06:40,469 --> 02:06:40,836
fan

9993
02:06:40,836 --> 02:06:42,400
wetlands

9994
02:06:42,400 --> 02:06:42,337
I think

9995
02:06:42,337 --> 02:06:42,571
it's great

9996
02:06:42,571 --> 02:06:43,571
. We

9997
02:06:43,571 --> 02:06:44,540
were told I actually work for

9998
02:06:44,540 --> 02:06:44,873
the county when we

9999
02:06:44,873 --> 02:06:45,474
were that

10000
02:06:45,474 --> 02:06:45,674
project was going on

10001
02:06:45,674 --> 02:06:46,750
. I just

10002
02:06:46,750 --> 02:06:47,109
got out

10003
02:06:47,109 --> 02:06:47,309
of college

10004
02:06:47,309 --> 02:06:47,576
. We

10005
02:06:47,576 --> 02:06:48,143
were

10006
02:06:48,143 --> 02:06:49,511
told that that was

10007
02:06:49,511 --> 02:06:49,745
going

10008
02:06:49,745 --> 02:06:50,245
to

10009
02:06:50,245 --> 02:06:50,746
help with

10010
02:06:50,746 --> 02:06:51,346
flood

10011
02:06:51,346 --> 02:06:52,348
control and

10012
02:06:52,348 --> 02:06:52,915
salmon

10013
02:06:52,915 --> 02:06:53,815
production. Kind of

10014
02:06:53,815 --> 02:06:55,517
wondering where we are on that

10015
02:06:55,517 --> 02:06:56,185
.

10016
02:06:56,185 --> 02:06:56,350
Snooker down. We still

10017
02:06:56,350 --> 02:06:56,685
have

10018
02:06:56,685 --> 02:06:58,187
flooding

10019
02:06:58,187 --> 02:06:58,487
. Um

10020
02:06:58,487 --> 02:06:58,821
, I

10021
02:06:58,821 --> 02:06:59,154
ran cows up

10022
02:06:59,154 --> 02:07:01,154
there

10023
02:07:01,190 --> 02:07:01,456
, beef cows, when I was

10024
02:07:01,456 --> 02:07:01,724
in

10025
02:07:01,724 --> 02:07:02,570
8th

10026
02:07:02,570 --> 02:07:02,358
grade, we

10027
02:07:02,358 --> 02:07:03,158
hate

10028
02:07:03,158 --> 02:07:03,559
those

10029
02:07:03,559 --> 02:07:04,527
fields

10030
02:07:04,527 --> 02:07:04,994
So

10031
02:07:04,994 --> 02:07:05,261
, to say that

10032
02:07:05,261 --> 02:07:05,694
is a

10033
02:07:05,694 --> 02:07:06,395
natural

10034
02:07:06,395 --> 02:07:06,662
pristine wetland what

10035
02:07:06,662 --> 02:07:07,620
I've been

10036
02:07:07,620 --> 02:07:07,596
hearing in

10037
02:07:07,596 --> 02:07:07,796
the public

10038
02:07:07,796 --> 02:07:08,430
. It's not

10039
02:07:08,430 --> 02:07:10,320
true. It was finished

10040
02:07:10,320 --> 02:07:10,399
in

10041
02:07:10,399 --> 02:07:11,667
2008

10042
02:07:11,667 --> 02:07:12,301
.

10043
02:07:12,301 --> 02:07:12,868
4 earthmother tractors are out

10044
02:07:12,868 --> 02:07:13,568
there scraping for

10045
02:07:13,568 --> 02:07:14,700
2 years

10046
02:07:14,700 --> 02:07:14,670
straight to

10047
02:07:14,670 --> 02:07:14,870
make that

10048
02:07:14,870 --> 02:07:15,504
. That

10049
02:07:15,504 --> 02:07:16,500
doesn't take

10050
02:07:16,500 --> 02:07:16,405
away

10051
02:07:16,405 --> 02:07:16,839
what has

10052
02:07:16,839 --> 02:07:17,406
come

10053
02:07:17,406 --> 02:07:18,700
out there

10054
02:07:18,700 --> 02:07:18,207
, but

10055
02:07:18,207 --> 02:07:18,541
I

10056
02:07:18,541 --> 02:07:18,941
also

10057
02:07:18,941 --> 02:07:19,375
don't see

10058
02:07:19,375 --> 02:07:20,510
anything in

10059
02:07:20,510 --> 02:07:20,743
these plans where

10060
02:07:20,743 --> 02:07:21,443
it

10061
02:07:21,443 --> 02:07:21,978
says baseball fields are

10062
02:07:21,978 --> 02:07:22,678
going

10063
02:07:22,678 --> 02:07:23,179
into

10064
02:07:23,179 --> 02:07:23,343
critical areas

10065
02:07:23,343 --> 02:07:23,646
.

10066
02:07:23,646 --> 02:07:23,980
Louisville

10067
02:07:23,980 --> 02:07:25,915
fan wetland

10068
02:07:25,915 --> 02:07:26,983
. Um

10069
02:07:26,983 --> 02:07:27,417
, to

10070
02:07:27,417 --> 02:07:27,716
go

10071
02:07:27,716 --> 02:07:28,217
take

10072
02:07:28,217 --> 02:07:29,719
another step

10073
02:07:29,719 --> 02:07:30,652
, the

10074
02:07:30,652 --> 02:07:31,120
Winniehauser fields, I feel

10075
02:07:31,120 --> 02:07:31,954
aren't

10076
02:07:31,954 --> 02:07:32,188
big enough. Also

10077
02:07:32,188 --> 02:07:32,488
, you

10078
02:07:32,488 --> 02:07:32,855
have

10079
02:07:32,855 --> 02:07:33,880
a railroad

10080
02:07:33,880 --> 02:07:33,422
track right

10081
02:07:33,422 --> 02:07:33,823
there

10082
02:07:33,823 --> 02:07:34,457
on

10083
02:07:34,457 --> 02:07:34,690
Highway 20

10084
02:07:34,690 --> 02:07:35,900
. So

10085
02:07:35,900 --> 02:07:35,424
kids

10086
02:07:35,424 --> 02:07:35,792
riding

10087
02:07:35,792 --> 02:07:36,580
their bikes

10088
02:07:36,580 --> 02:07:36,558
to

10089
02:07:36,558 --> 02:07:37,226
Winnie

10090
02:07:37,226 --> 02:07:37,693
Hauser

10091
02:07:37,693 --> 02:07:38,127
, crossing

10092
02:07:38,127 --> 02:07:38,727
a railroad

10093
02:07:38,727 --> 02:07:39,162
track, Highway 20

10094
02:07:39,162 --> 02:07:39,762
, if they come

10095
02:07:39,762 --> 02:07:40,290
in from the other way

10096
02:07:40,290 --> 02:07:40,430
, roads,

10097
02:07:40,430 --> 02:07:40,830
road, they

10098
02:07:40,830 --> 02:07:41,263
have to

10099
02:07:41,263 --> 02:07:41,697
cross

10100
02:07:41,697 --> 02:07:42,298
Highway 9

10101
02:07:42,298 --> 02:07:44,670
at a roundabout

10102
02:07:44,670 --> 02:07:44,800
. Both

10103
02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:45,680
are heavy traffic areas

10104
02:07:45,680 --> 02:07:45,835
I'm

10105
02:07:45,835 --> 02:07:46,102
also a firefighter in

10106
02:07:46,102 --> 02:07:46,468
Cedar

10107
02:07:46,468 --> 02:07:47,303
Wooley

10108
02:07:47,303 --> 02:07:48,400
. I've

10109
02:07:48,400 --> 02:07:48,271
responded to

10110
02:07:48,271 --> 02:07:48,504
calls

10111
02:07:48,504 --> 02:07:49,500
on

10112
02:07:49,500 --> 02:07:49,338
Highway 20 and

10113
02:07:49,338 --> 02:07:50,600
from the

10114
02:07:50,600 --> 02:07:50,874
Northern state

10115
02:07:50,874 --> 02:07:51,474
Helme Road

10116
02:07:51,474 --> 02:07:52,207
,

10117
02:07:52,207 --> 02:07:52,909
they've been fewer and

10118
02:07:52,909 --> 02:07:53,710
far

10119
02:07:53,710 --> 02:07:54,344
between, but I can tell you

10120
02:07:54,344 --> 02:07:54,610
the

10121
02:07:54,610 --> 02:07:55,210
last

10122
02:07:55,210 --> 02:07:55,512
two accidents I've

10123
02:07:55,512 --> 02:07:56,112
been

10124
02:07:56,112 --> 02:07:56,646
out there

10125
02:07:56,646 --> 02:07:56,846
. Cars have

10126
02:07:56,846 --> 02:07:57,246
been

10127
02:07:57,246 --> 02:07:57,814
floating in

10128
02:07:57,814 --> 02:07:58,581
the wetland

10129
02:07:58,581 --> 02:07:59,115
People

10130
02:07:59,115 --> 02:07:59,382
ran off the road

10131
02:07:59,382 --> 02:07:59,749
and ran

10132
02:07:59,749 --> 02:08:00,216
into

10133
02:08:00,216 --> 02:08:01,151
the pond. We

10134
02:08:01,151 --> 02:08:01,917
fished one person

10135
02:08:01,917 --> 02:08:03,586
out last winter

10136
02:08:03,586 --> 02:08:05,255
. Um

10137
02:08:05,255 --> 02:08:05,688
and

10138
02:08:05,688 --> 02:08:06,389
then to

10139
02:08:06,389 --> 02:08:06,956
back another part, talking

10140
02:08:06,956 --> 02:08:08,892
about our children

10141
02:08:08,892 --> 02:08:09,659
. We hear

10142
02:08:09,659 --> 02:08:10,260
so

10143
02:08:10,260 --> 02:08:10,660
much complaints about

10144
02:08:10,660 --> 02:08:12,660
children's

10145
02:08:12,695 --> 02:08:13,263
time

10146
02:08:13,263 --> 02:08:13,426
on screens

10147
02:08:13,426 --> 02:08:14,640
and

10148
02:08:14,640 --> 02:08:14,698
children not getting out and

10149
02:08:14,698 --> 02:08:15,465
getting to

10150
02:08:15,465 --> 02:08:15,765
enjoy those

10151
02:08:15,765 --> 02:08:16,233
those

10152
02:08:16,233 --> 02:08:18,233
wild areas

10153
02:08:21,404 --> 02:08:22,500
. This

10154
02:08:22,500 --> 02:08:22,205
is why is

10155
02:08:22,205 --> 02:08:22,806
this

10156
02:08:22,806 --> 02:08:23,673
not a good investment

10157
02:08:23,673 --> 02:08:24,274
? My

10158
02:08:24,274 --> 02:08:24,641
father-in-law has been

10159
02:08:24,641 --> 02:08:26,208
involved

10160
02:08:26,208 --> 02:08:26,510
with having these fields for

10161
02:08:26,510 --> 02:08:26,943
the

10162
02:08:26,943 --> 02:08:27,444
last 35

10163
02:08:27,444 --> 02:08:27,711
years talking about

10164
02:08:27,711 --> 02:08:28,445
it

10165
02:08:28,445 --> 02:08:28,945
. No

10166
02:08:28,945 --> 02:08:29,312
one cared

10167
02:08:29,312 --> 02:08:30,580
back then

10168
02:08:30,580 --> 02:08:31,281
So

10169
02:08:31,281 --> 02:08:33,449
now all of a sudden we

10170
02:08:33,449 --> 02:08:34,117
care

10171
02:08:34,117 --> 02:08:34,518
over not taking away the

10172
02:08:34,518 --> 02:08:35,285
importance

10173
02:08:35,285 --> 02:08:35,619
of

10174
02:08:35,619 --> 02:08:36,520
the

10175
02:08:36,520 --> 02:08:36,686
bird

10176
02:08:36,686 --> 02:08:37,120
, but

10177
02:08:37,120 --> 02:08:37,554
also we

10178
02:08:37,554 --> 02:08:38,188
have

10179
02:08:38,188 --> 02:08:38,855
care facilities in

10180
02:08:38,855 --> 02:08:39,423
this town that are helping

10181
02:08:39,423 --> 02:08:40,289
with

10182
02:08:40,289 --> 02:08:40,957
overdoses and drugs and

10183
02:08:40,957 --> 02:08:41,625
everything else

10184
02:08:41,625 --> 02:08:41,958
. How

10185
02:08:41,958 --> 02:08:42,122
about

10186
02:08:42,122 --> 02:08:42,760
it

10187
02:08:42,760 --> 02:08:43,693
go up river and have

10188
02:08:43,693 --> 02:08:43,927
an inch

10189
02:08:43,927 --> 02:08:44,728
of

10190
02:08:44,728 --> 02:08:46,960
prevention for these

10191
02:08:46,960 --> 02:08:46,529
. I heard

10192
02:08:46,529 --> 02:08:47,297
with the

10193
02:08:47,297 --> 02:08:48,650
other facilities

10194
02:08:48,650 --> 02:08:48,832
, if

10195
02:08:48,832 --> 02:08:49,131
we save one life

10196
02:08:49,131 --> 02:08:49,533
, it's all

10197
02:08:49,533 --> 02:08:50,367
worth it

10198
02:08:50,367 --> 02:08:50,701
. Well

10199
02:08:50,701 --> 02:08:50,933
, if we

10200
02:08:50,933 --> 02:08:51,102
save

10201
02:08:51,102 --> 02:08:51,767
one

10202
02:08:51,767 --> 02:08:52,636
child from having to go

10203
02:08:52,636 --> 02:08:53,337
into

10204
02:08:53,337 --> 02:08:53,637
one of those beds

10205
02:08:53,637 --> 02:08:54,805
. Isn't

10206
02:08:54,805 --> 02:08:54,992
it

10207
02:08:54,992 --> 02:08:55,439
the

10208
02:08:55,439 --> 02:08:56,390
same, isn't

10209
02:08:56,390 --> 02:08:57,274
not worth it too

10210
02:08:57,274 --> 02:08:57,974
?

10211
02:08:57,974 --> 02:08:59,208
So that's it. Thank you

10245
02:09:18,595 --> 02:09:20,970

02:09:23,601 --> 02:09:24,168
flood

10251
02:09:24,168 --> 02:09:25,202
event and

10252
02:09:25,202 --> 02:09:25,903
the

10253
02:09:25,903 --> 02:09:26,437
creek

10254
02:09:26,437 --> 02:09:26,871

being rerouted

10258
02:09:28,706 --> 02:09:29,106
by some

10259
02:09:29,106 --> 02:09:29,507
ditch

10260
02:09:29,507 --> 02:09:29,840

been done

10263
02:09:31,420 --> 02:09:31,475
. It

10264
02:09:31,475 --> 02:09:31,908
was

10265
02:09:31,908 --> 02:09:32,176
interesting

10266
02:09:32,176 --> 02:09:32,843
to

10267
02:09:32,843 --> 02:09:33,377
see

10268
02:09:33,377 --> 02:09:33,644
what had

10269
02:09:33,644 --> 02:09:33,978
gone

10270
02:09:33,978 --> 02:09:34,645
up

10271
02:09:34,645 --> 02:09:35,246
there

10272
02:09:35,246 --> 02:09:35,980
, gone

10273
02:09:35,980 --> 02:09:36,547
on up there

10274
02:09:36,547 --> 02:09:37,481
and

10275
02:09:37,481 --> 02:09:37,815
actually getting eyes

10276
02:09:37,815 --> 02:09:38,490
on

10277
02:09:38,490 --> 02:09:38,549
it

10278
02:09:38,549 --> 02:09:38,949
and how it is

10279
02:09:38,949 --> 02:09:39,116
, uh, filled

10280
02:09:39,116 --> 02:09:39,584
in,

10281
02:09:39,584 --> 02:09:40,184
how it

10282
02:09:40,184 --> 02:09:40,818
was changed

10283
02:09:40,818 --> 02:09:41,218
, um, so

10284
02:09:41,218 --> 02:09:42,186
I'm

10285
02:09:42,186 --> 02:09:42,386
still conferring more with

10286
02:09:42,386 --> 02:09:43,253
our

10287
02:09:43,253 --> 02:09:43,588
staff about uh what's

10288
02:09:43,588 --> 02:09:43,988
going on

10289
02:09:43,988 --> 02:09:45,220
up there

10290
02:09:45,220 --> 02:09:45,389
. Log

10291

02:09:45,823 --> 02:09:46,524
, um,

10293
02:09:46,524 --> 02:09:46,924
I volunteer with them

10294
02:09:46,924 --> 02:09:47,225
each year

10295
02:09:47,225 --> 02:09:47,525
and

10296
02:09:47,525 --> 02:09:47,959
, uh, that

10297
02:09:47,959 --> 02:09:49,160
actually went

10298
02:09:49,160 --> 02:09:49,493
quite well. We did

10299
02:09:49,493 --> 02:09:49,760
some

10300
02:09:49,760 --> 02:09:50,228
changes

10301
02:09:50,228 --> 02:09:51,462
and uh it

10302
02:09:51,462 --> 02:09:51,963
was wonderful to see

10303
02:09:51,963 --> 02:09:52,563
how

10304
02:09:52,563 --> 02:09:53,765
we streamline the

10305
02:09:53,765 --> 02:09:54,365
process

10306
02:09:54,365 --> 02:09:54,766
and got a whole lot

10307
02:09:54,766 --> 02:09:55,199
of people

10308
02:09:55,199 --> 02:09:56,000
through

10309
02:09:56,000 --> 02:09:56,434
, uh, a really

10310
02:09:56,434 --> 02:09:57,168
a

10311
02:09:57,168 --> 02:09:58,235
cherished, uh, Skagit

10312
02:09:58,235 --> 02:09:58,536
County

10313
02:09:58,536 --> 02:10:00,405
event

10314
02:10:00,405 --> 02:10:00,838
, um, and I

10315
02:10:00,838 --> 02:10:01,339
think it

10316
02:10:01,339 --> 02:10:02,600
flowed

10317
02:10:02,600 --> 02:10:04,600
quite smoothly

10318
02:10:04,642 --> 02:10:04,975
. So we

10319
02:10:04,975 --> 02:10:05,376
went

10320
02:10:05,376 --> 02:10:05,743
and all did

10321
02:10:05,743 --> 02:10:05,969
a tour of

10322
02:10:05,969 --> 02:10:07,450
the

10323
02:10:07,450 --> 02:10:07,611

02:10:07,611 --> 02:10:08,412
, uh, dam

10325
02:10:08,412 --> 02:10:09,180
fish passage

10326
02:10:09,180 --> 02:10:09,780
,

10327
02:10:09,780 --> 02:10:10,810
and it was quite

10328
02:10:10,810 --> 02:10:11,282
neat

10329
02:10:11,282 --> 02:10:11,783
to see

10330
02:10:11,783 --> 02:10:12,217
the amount of

10331
02:10:12,217 --> 02:10:12,484
fish coming

10332
02:10:12,484 --> 02:10:14,510
into

10333

fishing

10341
02:10:19,190 --> 02:10:19,824
and then seeing

10342
02:10:19,824 --> 02:10:20,658
how many fish are

10343
02:10:20,658 --> 02:10:21,580
making

10344
02:10:21,580 --> 02:10:22,193
it

10345
02:10:22,193 --> 02:10:22,861

02:10:26,231 --> 02:10:27,499
that

10351
02:10:27,499 --> 02:10:28,433
system and the way

10352
02:10:28,433 --> 02:10:29,133
that they get them through

10353
02:10:29,133 --> 02:10:29,501
as

10354
02:10:29,501 --> 02:10:30,502
quickly

10355
02:10:30,502 --> 02:10:30,669
as possible and then

10356
02:10:30,669 --> 02:10:30,842
up

10357
02:10:30,842 --> 02:10:31,669

10360
02:10:32,404 --> 02:10:32,637
quite neat

10361
02:10:32,637 --> 02:10:33,238

10363
02:10:34,500 --> 02:10:34,472

10364
02:10:34,472 --> 02:10:34,839
, also

10365
02:10:34,839 --> 02:10:35,240
to

10366
02:10:35,240 --> 02:10:36,541
see

10367
02:10:36,541 --> 02:10:36,908

02:10:36,908 --> 02:10:37,309
hatchery

10369
02:10:37,309 --> 02:10:38,409
and how

10370
02:10:38,409 --> 02:10:38,910
they

10371
02:10:38,910 --> 02:10:39,578

. Um

10376
02:10:41,812 --> 02:10:42,246
, it was interesting

10377
02:10:42,246 --> 02:10:42,714
to me. I'd

10378
02:10:42,714 --> 02:10:43,810
never gone

10379
02:10:43,810 --> 02:10:43,682
through a

10380
02:10:43,682 --> 02:10:44,716
hatchery. I

10381
02:10:44,716 --> 02:10:45,117
, I've seen

10382
02:10:45,117 --> 02:10:45,751
fish

10383
02:10:45,751 --> 02:10:46,284

sturgeon before

10388
02:10:48,353 --> 02:10:48,787
, but it

10389
02:10:48,787 --> 02:10:49,121
had

10390
02:10:49,121 --> 02:10:49,521
never

10391
02:10:49,521 --> 02:10:50,880
actually

10392
02:10:50,880 --> 02:10:50,755
seen something

10393
02:10:50,755 --> 02:10:51,223
where they were trying

10394
02:10:51,223 --> 02:10:51,990
to put

10395
02:10:51,990 --> 02:10:53,580

10396
02:10:53,580 --> 02:10:53,625

10400
02:10:55,327 --> 02:10:55,520
And

10401
02:10:55,520 --> 02:10:55,827
so

10402
02:10:55,827 --> 02:10:56,428
it was

10403
02:10:56,428 --> 02:10:57,290
, uh, quite interesting

10404
02:10:57,290 --> 02:10:57,763
to walk through that

10405
02:10:57,763 --> 02:10:58,263

and

10540
02:12:10,135 --> 02:12:10,669
moving

10541
02:12:10,669 --> 02:12:10,936
forward

10542
02:12:10,936 --> 02:12:11,404

mentioned the

10546
02:12:14,730 --> 02:12:15,608
future

10547
02:12:15,608 --> 02:12:16,409
So Energy

10548
02:12:16,409 --> 02:12:17,110
,

10549
02:12:17,110 --> 02:12:17,710
damn tour that we did

10550
02:12:17,710 --> 02:12:18,578
up there

10551
02:12:18,578 --> 02:12:18,944
,

10552
02:12:18,944 --> 02:12:19,411
um, it was

10553
02:12:19,411 --> 02:12:20,313
really nice to

10554
02:12:20,313 --> 02:12:20,647
go

10555
02:12:20,647 --> 02:12:21,247
through

10556
02:12:21,247 --> 02:12:21,948
that

10557
02:12:21,948 --> 02:12:22,482
. I had a

10558
02:12:22,482 --> 02:12:23,490
chance to

10559
02:12:23,490 --> 02:12:23,616
go through it a

10560
02:12:23,616 --> 02:12:24,216
couple

10561
02:12:24,216 --> 02:12:25,218
times

10562
02:12:25,218 --> 02:12:25,785
before

10563
02:12:25,785 --> 02:12:26,452
, um, but

10564
02:12:26,452 --> 02:12:26,853
actually

10565
02:12:26,853 --> 02:12:27,620
see

10566
02:12:27,620 --> 02:12:28,221
the

10567
02:12:28,221 --> 02:12:28,821
um salmon

10568
02:12:28,821 --> 02:12:29,155
come through

10569
02:12:29,155 --> 02:12:29,489
and

10570
02:12:29,489 --> 02:12:29,822
they go

10571
02:12:29,822 --> 02:12:30,790
to

10572
02:12:30,790 --> 02:12:31,925
the fish elevator

10573
02:12:31,925 --> 02:12:32,291
and then they were sorting them

10574
02:12:32,291 --> 02:12:32,592
as they

10575
02:12:32,592 --> 02:12:33,259
come

10576
02:12:33,259 --> 02:12:33,660
out and

10577
02:12:33,660 --> 02:12:34,427
um it's

10578
02:12:34,427 --> 02:12:35,270
,

10579
02:12:35,270 --> 02:12:35,193
it's really interesting

10580
02:12:35,193 --> 02:12:35,494
how

10581
02:12:35,494 --> 02:12:36,262
they are

10582
02:12:36,262 --> 02:12:36,663
able to

10583
02:12:36,663 --> 02:12:37,300
use

10584
02:12:37,300 --> 02:12:37,630
the

10585
02:12:37,630 --> 02:12:37,997
genetics

10586
02:12:37,997 --> 02:12:38,798
and take

10587
02:12:38,798 --> 02:12:38,971
so many

10588
02:12:38,971 --> 02:12:39,399
,

10589
02:12:39,399 --> 02:12:39,666
depending on

10590
02:12:39,666 --> 02:12:39,932
the run

10591
02:12:39,932 --> 02:12:40,199
numbers

10592
02:12:40,199 --> 02:12:40,634
that

10593
02:12:40,634 --> 02:12:41,340
are coming in

10594
02:12:41,340 --> 02:12:41,501
, how many

10595
02:12:41,501 --> 02:12:41,901
they're

10596
02:12:41,901 --> 02:12:42,268
catching

10597
02:12:42,268 --> 02:12:42,735
and

10598
02:12:42,735 --> 02:12:43,369
um

10599
02:12:43,369 --> 02:12:43,669
bringing up to the dam

10600
02:12:43,669 --> 02:12:43,936
and how

10601
02:12:43,936 --> 02:12:44,371
many

10602
02:12:44,371 --> 02:12:45,471
they're

10603
02:12:45,471 --> 02:12:45,905
using

10604
02:12:45,905 --> 02:12:46,273
for

10605
02:12:46,273 --> 02:12:46,772
the

10606
02:12:46,772 --> 02:12:47,140
hatchery and how

10607
02:12:47,140 --> 02:12:47,641
much they're

10608
02:12:47,641 --> 02:12:48,108
just

10609
02:12:48,108 --> 02:12:48,808
letting

10610
02:12:48,808 --> 02:12:49,309
loose wild

10611
02:12:49,309 --> 02:12:50,176
in the

10612
02:12:50,176 --> 02:12:50,544
lake up there

10613
02:12:50,544 --> 02:12:51,645
. So they've

10614
02:12:51,645 --> 02:12:52,479
done

10615
02:12:52,479 --> 02:12:53,460
a amazing job

10616
02:12:53,460 --> 02:12:53,513
. I think

10617
02:12:53,513 --> 02:12:53,812
they

10618
02:12:53,812 --> 02:12:54,147
start

10619
02:12:54,147 --> 02:12:55,415
out

10620
02:12:55,415 --> 02:12:56,150
with 97

10621
02:12:56,150 --> 02:12:57,250
fish when

10622
02:12:57,250 --> 02:12:57,784
they started

10623
02:12:57,784 --> 02:12:58,284
. They're up

10624
02:12:58,284 --> 02:12:59,753
to 80

10625
02:12:59,753 --> 02:13:00,387
or 90,000

10626
02:13:00,387 --> 02:13:00,754
came back last

10627
02:13:00,754 --> 02:13:01,154
year,

10628
02:13:01,154 --> 02:13:01,688
so it was

10629
02:13:01,688 --> 02:13:02,355
a huge, huge

10630
02:13:02,355 --> 02:13:02,923
increase

10631
02:13:02,923 --> 02:13:03,290
So

10632
02:13:03,290 --> 02:13:03,590
, um, what's

10633
02:13:03,590 --> 02:13:03,790
really

10634
02:13:03,790 --> 02:13:04,391
uh

10635
02:13:04,391 --> 02:13:04,551
impressive what they're

10636
02:13:04,551 --> 02:13:05,425
doing

10637
02:13:05,425 --> 02:13:06,590
and one of the things we went

10638
02:13:06,590 --> 02:13:06,660
up and looked at it because

10639
02:13:06,660 --> 02:13:07,600
that's one of the

10640
02:13:07,600 --> 02:13:07,594
things

10641
02:13:07,594 --> 02:13:07,828
Seattle

10642
02:13:07,828 --> 02:13:08,462
City

10643
02:13:08,462 --> 02:13:08,762
like with their

10644
02:13:08,762 --> 02:13:09,162
system

10645
02:13:09,162 --> 02:13:09,396
of Ross and

10646
02:13:09,396 --> 02:13:10,130
so

10647
02:13:10,130 --> 02:13:10,564
forth on

10648
02:13:10,564 --> 02:13:11,310
the upper

10649
02:13:11,310 --> 02:13:11,532
Skagget

10650
02:13:11,532 --> 02:13:12,165
. That's what

10651
02:13:12,165 --> 02:13:12,666
some type of

10652
02:13:12,666 --> 02:13:12,966
system they're

10653
02:13:12,966 --> 02:13:13,567
trying

10654
02:13:13,567 --> 02:13:14,670
to get put

10655
02:13:14,670 --> 02:13:14,236
in on that

10656
02:13:14,236 --> 02:13:14,434
.

10657
02:13:14,434 --> 02:13:15,102
So

10658
02:13:15,102 --> 02:13:15,535
that's why we

10659
02:13:15,535 --> 02:13:15,869
went up to

10660
02:13:15,869 --> 02:13:16,970
look at

10661
02:13:16,970 --> 02:13:17,737
. If there's

10662
02:13:17,737 --> 02:13:18,505
anything

10663
02:13:18,505 --> 02:13:18,805
else with that, we

10664
02:13:18,805 --> 02:13:19,673

10665
02:13:19,673 --> 02:13:20,474

facilities

10733
02:16:52,822 --> 02:16:53,456
, um, but really the

10734
02:16:53,456 --> 02:16:53,756
show is all about

10735
02:16:53,756 --> 02:16:54,900
Eric

10736
02:16:54,900 --> 02:16:54,390
Gaither

10737
02:16:54,390 --> 02:16:55,325
here

10738
02:16:55,325 --> 02:16:55,758
. So

10739
02:16:55,758 --> 02:16:56,159
, uh, I've

10740
02:16:56,159 --> 02:16:56,993
been in

10741
02:16:56,993 --> 02:16:57,627
the

10742
02:16:57,627 --> 02:16:57,894
position a few months

10743
02:16:57,894 --> 02:16:58,294
now

10744
02:16:58,294 --> 02:16:58,595
, and

10745
02:16:58,595 --> 02:16:58,828
this

10746
02:16:58,828 --> 02:17:00,529
is

10747
02:17:00,529 --> 02:17:01,310
a huge

10748
02:17:01,310 --> 02:17:01,190
event, so

10749
02:17:01,190 --> 02:17:01,498
I'm

10750
02:17:01,498 --> 02:17:01,898
really

10751
02:17:01,898 --> 02:17:02,665
glad that

10752
02:17:02,665 --> 02:17:03,132
we

10753
02:17:03,132 --> 02:17:03,900
have staff

10754
02:17:03,900 --> 02:17:04,334
that have been working on it a

10755
02:17:04,334 --> 02:17:04,734
lot longer

10756
02:17:04,734 --> 02:17:05,567
than I have

10757
02:17:05,567 --> 02:17:06,568
, so I'm

10758
02:17:06,568 --> 02:17:06,969
just going to turn it over

10759
02:17:06,969 --> 02:17:07,804
to

10760
02:17:07,804 --> 02:17:08,438
Eric because

10761
02:17:08,438 --> 02:17:08,805
you get a

10762
02:17:08,805 --> 02:17:09,572
lot more

10763
02:17:09,572 --> 02:17:11,441
important and interesting stuff

10764
02:17:11,441 --> 02:17:13,800
Great. Uh, we

10765
02:17:13,800 --> 02:17:13,877
might add, um,

10766
02:17:13,877 --> 02:17:14,978
for those of you who are in 4h

10767
02:17:14,978 --> 02:17:15,779
,

10768
02:17:15,779 --> 02:17:16,145
uh, Ken is gonna be seen around

10769
02:17:16,145 --> 02:17:16,413
the dog

10770
02:17:16,413 --> 02:17:17,514
barn

10771
02:17:17,514 --> 02:17:17,948
because his

10772
02:17:17,948 --> 02:17:18,181
daughter is

10773
02:17:18,181 --> 02:17:18,615
in

10774
02:17:18,615 --> 02:17:19,549
the 4 on

10775
02:17:19,549 --> 02:17:19,783
4

10776
02:17:19,783 --> 02:17:20,684
,

10777
02:17:20,684 --> 02:17:21,184
right? Yeah, club, so he'll be

10778
02:17:21,184 --> 02:17:22,510
around the fair

10779
02:17:22,510 --> 02:17:22,252
and he's

10780
02:17:22,252 --> 02:17:22,852
no

10781
02:17:22,852 --> 02:17:23,278
stranger to the fair

10782
02:17:23,278 --> 02:17:23,446
, but

10783
02:17:23,446 --> 02:17:23,653
, uh,

10784
02:17:23,653 --> 02:17:24,286
a

10785
02:17:24,286 --> 02:17:25,220
lot

10786
02:17:25,220 --> 02:17:25,455
of details that go into

10787
02:17:25,455 --> 02:17:26,690
it. So

10788
02:17:26,690 --> 02:17:27,624
um

10789
02:17:27,624 --> 02:17:28,759
yeah, I

10790
02:17:28,759 --> 02:17:29,459
want to start

10791
02:17:29,459 --> 02:17:30,270
off, uh, commissioners, it's

10792
02:17:30,270 --> 02:17:31,940
great to be here

10793
02:17:31,940 --> 02:17:31,495
. Um

10794
02:17:31,495 --> 02:17:31,862
, you know,

10795
02:17:31,862 --> 02:17:33,263
this is

10796
02:17:33,263 --> 02:17:33,964
, I think these years

10797
02:17:33,964 --> 02:17:34,498
are starting to go together, so

10798
02:17:34,498 --> 02:17:35,432
I think this is

10799
02:17:35,432 --> 02:17:35,731
year

10800
02:17:35,731 --> 02:17:36,330
15

10801
02:17:36,330 --> 02:17:37,000
, so

10802
02:17:37,000 --> 02:17:37,935
it's great to have a new phase

10803
02:17:37,935 --> 02:17:38,635
,

10804
02:17:38,635 --> 02:17:39,803
Commissioner Burns up here

10805
02:17:39,803 --> 02:17:40,537
, uh,

10806
02:17:40,537 --> 02:17:41,400
you know, that kind of breaks

10807
02:17:41,400 --> 02:17:41,672
up the, the

10808
02:17:41,672 --> 02:17:42,372
, the ears aren't

10809
02:17:42,372 --> 02:17:42,940
all

10810
02:17:42,940 --> 02:17:43,273
running together, but I

10811
02:17:43,273 --> 02:17:43,974
think

10812
02:17:43,974 --> 02:17:45,750
, Commissioner Wheen, you

10813
02:17:45,750 --> 02:17:45,709
have

10814
02:17:45,709 --> 02:17:46,430
me outlasted. I think

10815
02:17:46,430 --> 02:17:46,910
every

10816
02:17:46,910 --> 02:17:47,344
year I have done this.

10817
02:17:47,344 --> 02:17:47,678
You've been

10818
02:17:47,678 --> 02:17:47,978
up here

10819
02:17:47,978 --> 02:17:49,480
. So

10820
02:17:49,480 --> 02:17:49,780
, um, it

10821
02:17:49,780 --> 02:17:50,460
goes

10822
02:17:50,460 --> 02:17:51,247
back

10823
02:17:51,247 --> 02:17:51,648
to 2011 when

10824
02:17:51,648 --> 02:17:52,516
our

10825
02:17:52,516 --> 02:17:52,750
former director

10826
02:17:52,750 --> 02:17:53,384
Bryan Adams

10827
02:17:53,384 --> 02:17:53,917
called me when I

10828
02:17:53,917 --> 02:17:55,190
was working

10829
02:17:55,190 --> 02:17:56,186
out

10830
02:17:56,186 --> 02:17:56,387
in Colorado in

10831
02:17:56,387 --> 02:17:56,787
the

10832
02:17:56,787 --> 02:17:57,254
mountains

10833
02:17:57,254 --> 02:17:57,488
, and he said

10834
02:17:57,488 --> 02:17:57,888
, How

10835
02:17:57,888 --> 02:17:58,355
would you

10836
02:17:58,355 --> 02:17:58,923
like to run

10837
02:17:58,923 --> 02:17:59,189
the fair?

10838
02:17:59,189 --> 02:17:59,757
So

10839
02:17:59,757 --> 02:18:00,124
here we are

10840
02:18:00,124 --> 02:18:00,891
, um 15 years

10841
02:18:00,891 --> 02:18:01,392
later, but it's it's an honor

10842
02:18:01,392 --> 02:18:01,825
and a privilege

10843
02:18:01,825 --> 02:18:02,326
, and

10844
02:18:02,326 --> 02:18:03,270
I enjoy

10845
02:18:03,270 --> 02:18:03,199
being here every year

10846
02:18:03,199 --> 02:18:03,660
to

10847
02:18:03,660 --> 02:18:04,595

10848
02:18:04,595 --> 02:18:04,895

10849
02:18:04,895 --> 02:18:05,229
, so

10850
02:18:05,229 --> 02:18:05,863
, um, I

10851
02:18:05,863 --> 02:18:07,640
do wanna, uh, do

10852
02:18:07,640 --> 02:18:07,965
some shout

10853
02:18:07,965 --> 02:18:08,465
outs in the audience here. We

10854
02:18:08,465 --> 02:18:09,467

02:18:09,467 --> 02:18:09,800

10856
02:18:09,800 --> 02:18:10,601
our sketch

10857
02:18:10,601 --> 02:18:11,935
accounting forh members. We

10858
02:18:11,935 --> 02:18:12,603
have a couple of speakers who

10859
02:18:12,603 --> 02:18:13,104
are going to come up

10860
02:18:13,104 --> 02:18:13,570
later. Um

10861
02:18:13,570 --> 02:18:14,170
,

10862
02:18:14,170 --> 02:18:14,638
we have the Wind

10863
02:18:14,638 --> 02:18:14,971

10864
02:18:14,971 --> 02:18:15,639

10866
02:18:16,307 --> 02:18:16,740
represented as well

10867
02:18:16,740 --> 02:18:17,541
as the beaks

10868
02:18:17,541 --> 02:18:17,942

, which

10872
02:18:20,944 --> 02:18:21,579
, um, which

10873
02:18:21,579 --> 02:18:21,946
encompasses, I believe

10874
02:18:21,946 --> 02:18:22,612
a

10875
02:18:22,612 --> 02:18:23,470

10878
02:18:24,382 --> 02:18:24,782
, um,

10879
02:18:24,782 --> 02:18:25,750
and they

10880
02:18:25,750 --> 02:18:26,217
, um, their

10881
02:18:26,217 --> 02:18:26,751
club

10882
02:18:26,751 --> 02:18:27,418
is a

10883
02:18:27,418 --> 02:18:28,118
bit

10884
02:18:28,118 --> 02:18:28,352
highlighted this

10885
02:18:28,352 --> 02:18:28,786
year

10886
02:18:28,786 --> 02:18:29,287
because of

10887
02:18:29,287 --> 02:18:29,820
the theme, which

10888
02:18:29,820 --> 02:18:30,288
we'll get to

10889
02:18:30,288 --> 02:18:30,955

10890
02:18:30,955 --> 02:18:31,422

10894
02:18:32,857 --> 02:18:34,258
audience, I think we have

02:18:34,258 --> 02:18:34,658

02:18:34,658 --> 02:18:35,359

a

10931
02:19:00,285 --> 02:19:00,885
huge volunteer base, but

10932
02:19:00,885 --> 02:19:01,285
we

10933
02:19:01,285 --> 02:19:01,552
run out

10934
02:19:01,552 --> 02:19:02,119
3

10935
02:19:02,119 --> 02:19:03,210
full-time staff

10936
02:19:03,210 --> 02:19:03,287

02:19:03,287 --> 02:19:03,555
as

10938
02:19:03,555 --> 02:19:03,955
well

10939
02:19:03,955 --> 02:19:04,222
as we

10940
02:19:04,222 --> 02:19:04,622
do

10941
02:19:04,622 --> 02:19:04,956
have park

10942
02:19:04,956 --> 02:19:05,623

10943
02:19:05,623 --> 02:19:05,824
that comes in

10944
02:19:05,824 --> 02:19:06,224
near the

10945
02:19:06,224 --> 02:19:07,125
fair, but

10946
02:19:07,125 --> 02:19:07,725
it takes takes

10947
02:19:07,725 --> 02:19:08,260
a

10948
02:19:08,260 --> 02:19:08,593
village to

10949
02:19:08,593 --> 02:19:09,928
do it

10950
02:19:09,928 --> 02:19:10,228
. Um

10951
02:19:10,228 --> 02:19:10,762
, we also

10952
02:19:10,762 --> 02:19:11,950
have our advi

10953
02:19:11,950 --> 02:19:12,300

10954
02:19:12,300 --> 02:19:12,797

,

10957
02:19:13,131 --> 02:19:14,833
so

10958
02:19:14,833 --> 02:19:15,132
both those boards

10959
02:19:15,132 --> 02:19:15,467
were not

10960
02:19:15,467 --> 02:19:16,868

10961
02:19:16,868 --> 02:19:17,469

10964
02:19:19,570 --> 02:19:21,139
board, um

10965

10966
02:19:21,506 --> 02:19:22,374
hiatus and

10967
02:19:22,374 --> 02:19:23,875
then we had some people

10968
02:19:23,875 --> 02:19:24,576

02:19:24,576 --> 02:19:25,243

11001
02:19:47,320 --> 02:19:47,265
once a year.

11002
02:19:47,265 --> 02:19:48,267
Um

11003
02:19:48,267 --> 02:19:48,634
, and I

11004
02:19:48,634 --> 02:19:48,901
also, it's

11005
02:19:48,901 --> 02:19:49,750
also

11006
02:19:49,750 --> 02:19:49,635
good

11007
02:19:49,635 --> 02:19:50,200
information for some of the

11008
02:19:50,200 --> 02:19:50,736

11009
02:19:50,736 --> 02:19:51,436

11010
02:19:51,436 --> 02:19:51,937

11013
02:19:53,172 --> 02:19:54,390

11014
02:19:54,390 --> 02:19:54,540
after all, you should be, it's

11015
02:19:54,540 --> 02:19:55,730
the Super Bowl

11016
02:19:55,730 --> 02:19:55,407
, but

11017
02:19:55,407 --> 02:19:55,808
what goes

11018
02:19:55,808 --> 02:19:56,408
on at the

11019
02:19:56,408 --> 02:19:56,909
fairgrounds year

11020
02:19:56,909 --> 02:19:57,509
round and I only

11021
02:19:57,509 --> 02:19:58,770
have the

11022
02:19:58,770 --> 02:19:58,444
pleasure of

11023
02:19:58,444 --> 02:19:58,644
doing this

11024
02:19:58,644 --> 02:19:58,944
once per

11025
02:19:58,944 --> 02:19:59,712
year

11026
02:19:59,712 --> 02:20:00,445
, so it's our

11027
02:20:00,445 --> 02:20:01,246
chance to

11028
02:20:01,246 --> 02:20:01,547
give you guys an idea of what

11029
02:20:01,547 --> 02:20:01,947
goes

11030
02:20:01,947 --> 02:20:02,481
on

11031
02:20:02,481 --> 02:20:03,215
year round

11032
02:20:03,215 --> 02:20:04,490
. So

11033
02:20:04,490 --> 02:20:04,383
, um,

11034
02:20:04,383 --> 02:20:04,683
people

11035
02:20:04,683 --> 02:20:05,217
always

11036
02:20:05,217 --> 02:20:05,884
, people often

11037
02:20:05,884 --> 02:20:06,552
wonder, you know, we

11038
02:20:06,552 --> 02:20:07,510
have up to

11039
02:20:07,510 --> 02:20:07,452
close to

11040
02:20:07,452 --> 02:20:07,887
50 events

11041
02:20:07,887 --> 02:20:08,621
, but

11042
02:20:08,621 --> 02:20:08,954
sometimes they

11043
02:20:08,954 --> 02:20:09,588
get confused.

11044
02:20:09,588 --> 02:20:10,220
Are you running it

11045
02:20:10,220 --> 02:20:10,289
? Are you

11046
02:20:10,289 --> 02:20:10,589
in

11047
02:20:10,589 --> 02:20:11,230
charge

11048
02:20:11,230 --> 02:20:12,570
of it

11049
02:20:12,570 --> 02:20:12,625
? Um

11050
02:20:12,625 --> 02:20:13,192
, so

11051
02:20:13,192 --> 02:20:13,691
the fair

11052
02:20:13,691 --> 02:20:14,920
staff actually

11053
02:20:14,920 --> 02:20:14,527
runs

11054
02:20:14,527 --> 02:20:15,940
, um, you'll

11055
02:20:15,940 --> 02:20:15,427
see actually it's

11056
02:20:15,427 --> 02:20:15,761
4 events, but

11057
02:20:15,761 --> 02:20:16,280
the

11058
02:20:16,280 --> 02:20:16,428
fair

11059
02:20:16,428 --> 02:20:17,329
staff runs 4

11060
02:20:17,329 --> 02:20:17,663
events

11061
02:20:17,663 --> 02:20:18,630
and the

11062
02:20:18,630 --> 02:20:19,832
rest are

11063
02:20:19,832 --> 02:20:20,365
, um, mostly

11064
02:20:20,365 --> 02:20:20,900
run by third parties, so

11065
02:20:20,900 --> 02:20:21,167
there's a lot of

11066
02:20:21,167 --> 02:20:21,567
interaction,

11067
02:20:21,567 --> 02:20:22,301
of course

11068
02:20:22,301 --> 02:20:22,476
, when those

11069
02:20:22,476 --> 02:20:23,350
events

11070
02:20:23,350 --> 02:20:23,235
happen, but we're

11071
02:20:23,235 --> 02:20:24,303
the

11072
02:20:24,303 --> 02:20:25,370
main

11073
02:20:25,370 --> 02:20:25,805
driver. Um, these

11074
02:20:25,805 --> 02:20:26,472
are our

11075
02:20:26,472 --> 02:20:27,306
three

11076
02:20:27,306 --> 02:20:27,940
trademarks, which is our spring

11077

11080
02:20:30,276 --> 02:20:30,643

, the fare

11082
02:20:31,444 --> 02:20:32,311

11083
02:20:32,311 --> 02:20:33,679
the spring

11084
02:20:33,679 --> 02:20:34,380

11085
02:20:34,380 --> 02:20:36,480
events, you know, every

11086
02:20:36,480 --> 02:20:37,830
year we

11092
02:20:40,419 --> 02:20:41,120
a template and

11093
02:20:41,120 --> 02:20:41,454
we'd have vendors that

11094
02:20:41,454 --> 02:20:42,922
come in

11095
02:20:42,922 --> 02:20:43,920

familiarity

11105
02:20:47,160 --> 02:20:47,793

here at

11115
02:20:52,130 --> 02:20:52,932

11117
02:20:54,000 --> 02:20:54,367
different climate

11118
02:20:54,367 --> 02:20:54,600
. Let's say

11119
02:20:54,600 --> 02:20:55,268
we

11120
02:20:55,268 --> 02:20:55,702
lived in the South, we

11121
02:20:55,702 --> 02:20:56,102
would

11122
02:20:56,102 --> 02:20:56,469
probably

11123
02:20:56,469 --> 02:20:57,700
do another

11124
02:20:57,700 --> 02:20:57,670
garage sale

11125
02:20:57,670 --> 02:20:58,170
in JANUARY

11126
02:20:58,170 --> 02:20:58,738
or FEBRUARY

11127
02:20:58,738 --> 02:20:59,539
, but

11128
02:20:59,539 --> 02:21:00,306
uh

11129
02:21:00,306 --> 02:21:01,240
we aren't blessed with the uh

11130
02:21:01,240 --> 02:21:02,741
the weather and the

11131
02:21:02,741 --> 02:21:03,376
durable

11132
02:21:03,376 --> 02:21:03,810
surfaces. So we make do with

11133
02:21:03,810 --> 02:21:05,578
what we got

11134
02:21:05,578 --> 02:21:07,130
. Um

11135
02:21:07,130 --> 02:21:07,201
, our

11136
02:21:07,201 --> 02:21:07,880
spring

11137
02:21:07,880 --> 02:21:08,281
garage sale happened in APRIL.

11138
02:21:08,281 --> 02:21:09,382
Um, it was

11139
02:21:09,382 --> 02:21:09,649
, it's

11140
02:21:09,649 --> 02:21:10,383
always a

11141
02:21:10,383 --> 02:21:11,484
success. It happened

11142
02:21:11,484 --> 02:21:11,818
during

11143
02:21:11,818 --> 02:21:12,619
the

11144
02:21:12,619 --> 02:21:12,779
um, of course during the

11145
02:21:12,779 --> 02:21:13,118
Tulip

11146
02:21:13,118 --> 02:21:14,530
festival

11147
02:21:14,530 --> 02:21:14,788
and some people ask,

11148
02:21:14,788 --> 02:21:15,288
is that an accident that you

11149
02:21:15,288 --> 02:21:16,555
have it in

11150
02:21:16,555 --> 02:21:16,790
APRIL and

11151
02:21:16,790 --> 02:21:17,290
I haven't

11152
02:21:17,290 --> 02:21:17,724
been here 30

11153
02:21:17,724 --> 02:21:18,358
years, but

11154
02:21:18,358 --> 02:21:18,659
, uh,

11155
02:21:18,659 --> 02:21:18,925
when

11156
02:21:18,925 --> 02:21:19,425
, when

11157
02:21:19,425 --> 02:21:20,260
the formation of

11158
02:21:20,260 --> 02:21:20,527
this event happened

11159
02:21:20,527 --> 02:21:21,270
, but I can

11160
02:21:21,270 --> 02:21:21,594
tell you it's

11161
02:21:21,594 --> 02:21:22,429
no accident that

11162
02:21:22,429 --> 02:21:22,996
it's during the Skagit Valley

11163
02:21:22,996 --> 02:21:23,396
Tulip

11164
02:21:23,396 --> 02:21:23,964
Festival

11165
02:21:23,964 --> 02:21:24,497
. So, um

11166
02:21:24,497 --> 02:21:24,931
, again

11167
02:21:24,931 --> 02:21:25,799
,

11168
02:21:25,799 --> 02:21:27,330
we had a great show this year

11169
02:21:27,330 --> 02:21:27,834
,

11170
02:21:27,834 --> 02:21:28,168
um, 200, close to 200 vendors

11171
02:21:28,168 --> 02:21:28,702
,

11172
02:21:28,702 --> 02:21:30,270
around 350 booths

11173
02:21:30,270 --> 02:21:30,737
um, and those

11174
02:21:30,737 --> 02:21:31,705
that don't come

11175
02:21:31,705 --> 02:21:31,972
that

11176
02:21:31,972 --> 02:21:32,339
money does

11177
02:21:32,339 --> 02:21:32,873
support

11178
02:21:32,873 --> 02:21:34,441
the fairgrounds in the

11179
02:21:34,441 --> 02:21:34,674
year round operations

11180
02:21:34,674 --> 02:21:34,974
, so

11181
02:21:34,974 --> 02:21:35,475
, um,

11182
02:21:35,475 --> 02:21:36,409
it all feeds

11183
02:21:36,409 --> 02:21:36,743
into

11184
02:21:36,743 --> 02:21:36,976
one another,

11185
02:21:36,976 --> 02:21:38,645
um

11186
02:21:38,645 --> 02:21:39,179
. We

11187
02:21:39,179 --> 02:21:39,746
do have another great

11188
02:21:39,746 --> 02:21:40,914
chance in the fall

11189
02:21:40,914 --> 02:21:41,180
. It's

11190
02:21:41,180 --> 02:21:42,150
the

11191
02:21:42,150 --> 02:21:43,550
sister event

11192
02:21:43,550 --> 02:21:43,817
, and

11193
02:21:43,817 --> 02:21:44,117
this

11194
02:21:44,117 --> 02:21:44,351
one gets

11195
02:21:44,351 --> 02:21:44,850
a

11196
02:21:44,850 --> 02:21:45,285
little

11197
02:21:45,285 --> 02:21:45,752
extra

11198
02:21:45,752 --> 02:21:46,420
pizzazz because

11199
02:21:46,420 --> 02:21:46,687
we have a car show

11200
02:21:46,687 --> 02:21:46,953
. So we have

11201
02:21:46,953 --> 02:21:48,354
up

11202
02:21:48,354 --> 02:21:50,190
to 200 cars

11203
02:21:50,190 --> 02:21:50,524
um, there

11204
02:21:50,524 --> 02:21:50,824
, it's

11205
02:21:50,824 --> 02:21:52,559
nice

11206
02:21:52,559 --> 02:21:53,159
. So, um

11207
02:21:53,159 --> 02:21:54,628
yeah

11208
02:21:54,628 --> 02:21:55,462
, make sure to

11209
02:21:55,462 --> 02:21:56,930
mark your calendar for that one

11210
02:21:56,930 --> 02:21:57,364
I will add to that we

11211
02:21:57,364 --> 02:21:57,664
have had

11212
02:21:57,664 --> 02:21:59,165
4h

11213
02:21:59,165 --> 02:21:59,532
clubs raising money at some

11214
02:21:59,532 --> 02:21:59,933
of those

11215
02:21:59,933 --> 02:22:01,133
garage sales

11216
02:22:01,133 --> 02:22:01,401
, so

11217
02:22:01,401 --> 02:22:01,969
I

11218
02:22:01,969 --> 02:22:02,402
know that in the

11219
02:22:02,402 --> 02:22:03,871
small barn

11220
02:22:03,871 --> 02:22:04,304
we

11221
02:22:04,304 --> 02:22:04,872
had

11222
02:22:04,872 --> 02:22:05,706
$1000

11223
02:22:05,706 --> 02:22:06,273
and then in the past

11224
02:22:06,273 --> 02:22:06,607
there's been up to

11225
02:22:06,607 --> 02:22:06,907
$2000 and

11226
02:22:06,907 --> 02:22:08,575
that

11227
02:22:08,575 --> 02:22:08,975
goes into um different

11228
02:22:08,975 --> 02:22:10,209
things for

11229
02:22:10,209 --> 02:22:11,110
their barn, and so

11230
02:22:11,110 --> 02:22:11,611
that's money that you know

11231
02:22:11,611 --> 02:22:12,279
those requests

11232
02:22:12,279 --> 02:22:12,646
could

11233
02:22:12,646 --> 02:22:13,130
be

11234
02:22:13,130 --> 02:22:13,380
getting

11235
02:22:13,380 --> 02:22:14,748
to the

11236
02:22:14,748 --> 02:22:15,215
fair

11237
02:22:15,215 --> 02:22:15,515
budget

11238
02:22:15,515 --> 02:22:16,150
as requested

11239
02:22:16,150 --> 02:22:17,151
but a lot of those are

11240
02:22:17,151 --> 02:22:17,718
being

11241
02:22:17,718 --> 02:22:18,510
captured at

11242
02:22:18,510 --> 02:22:18,218
, at just

11243
02:22:18,218 --> 02:22:18,585
they're

11244
02:22:18,585 --> 02:22:19,320
just taken

11245
02:22:19,320 --> 02:22:19,620
off our plate

11246
02:22:19,620 --> 02:22:20,421
and

11247
02:22:20,421 --> 02:22:21,540
they're captured by the 4h

11248
02:22:21,540 --> 02:22:21,555
clubs and I know

11249
02:22:21,555 --> 02:22:21,922
that the

11250
02:22:21,922 --> 02:22:23,256
horse

11251
02:22:23,256 --> 02:22:24,491
department especially

11252
02:22:24,491 --> 02:22:24,891
, um,

11253
02:22:24,891 --> 02:22:25,158
fundraises

11254
02:22:25,158 --> 02:22:25,626
a lot

11255
02:22:25,626 --> 02:22:25,926
for the

11256
02:22:25,926 --> 02:22:26,292
arena

11257
02:22:26,292 --> 02:22:26,627
because

11258
02:22:26,627 --> 02:22:27,161
the whole

11259
02:22:27,161 --> 02:22:28,940
surface of

11260
02:22:28,940 --> 02:22:28,562
the

11261
02:22:28,562 --> 02:22:29,196
arena

11262
02:22:29,196 --> 02:22:29,630
is pretty

11263
02:22:29,630 --> 02:22:30,664
much

11264
02:22:30,664 --> 02:22:31,232
up to

11265
02:22:31,232 --> 02:22:31,731
the

11266
02:22:31,731 --> 02:22:32,299
4h Horse

11267
02:22:32,299 --> 02:22:32,800
Clubs and

11268
02:22:32,800 --> 02:22:33,501
their

11269
02:22:33,501 --> 02:22:34,568
budget

11270
02:22:34,568 --> 02:22:35,102
, so we're

11271
02:22:35,102 --> 02:22:35,335
always trying

11272
02:22:35,335 --> 02:22:35,970
to

11273
02:22:35,970 --> 02:22:36,504
come up with ways to

11274
02:22:36,504 --> 02:22:36,737
give 4h

11275
02:22:36,737 --> 02:22:37,204
a

11276
02:22:37,204 --> 02:22:37,538
good

11277
02:22:37,538 --> 02:22:37,871
opportunity

11278
02:22:37,871 --> 02:22:38,505
to fundraise

11279
02:22:38,505 --> 02:22:39,600
but they are the ones who are

11280
02:22:39,600 --> 02:22:39,507
really making it

11281
02:22:39,507 --> 02:22:39,941
happen, so

11282
02:22:39,941 --> 02:22:40,541
, um

11283
02:22:40,541 --> 02:22:41,575
I know, I know

11284
02:22:41,575 --> 02:22:42,343
you guys are

11285
02:22:42,343 --> 02:22:42,976
very involved. I know APRIL is

11286
02:22:42,976 --> 02:22:43,945
very involved with

11287
02:22:43,945 --> 02:22:44,645
the Horse

11288
02:22:44,645 --> 02:22:44,945
Club fundraising. So

11289
02:22:44,945 --> 02:22:46,514
we

11290
02:22:46,514 --> 02:22:47,248
do

11291
02:22:47,248 --> 02:22:47,715
appreciate that and we do try

11292
02:22:47,715 --> 02:22:48,382
to open up our

11293
02:22:48,382 --> 02:22:48,916
events to, you

11294
02:22:48,916 --> 02:22:49,317
know, make

11295
02:22:49,317 --> 02:22:50,685
hey wherever

11296
02:22:50,685 --> 02:22:51,285
we can

11297
02:22:51,285 --> 02:22:51,819
while we're already having a

11298
02:22:51,819 --> 02:22:53,754
big event going on

11299
02:22:53,754 --> 02:22:54,989
So

11300
02:22:54,989 --> 02:22:55,656
the

11301
02:22:55,656 --> 02:22:56,424
fairgrounds has always been a

11302
02:22:56,424 --> 02:22:57,692
year-round gathering place, but

11303
02:22:57,692 --> 02:22:58,225
I can tell you

11304
02:22:58,225 --> 02:22:59,794
post covid that

11305
02:22:59,794 --> 02:23:00,728
that has

11306
02:23:00,728 --> 02:23:00,962
, uh, from a

11307
02:23:00,962 --> 02:23:01,963
, a

11308
02:23:01,963 --> 02:23:02,797
, a

11309
02:23:02,797 --> 02:23:02,997
slogan that's true to

11310
02:23:02,997 --> 02:23:03,998
a

11311
02:23:03,998 --> 02:23:04,499
slogan

11312
02:23:04,499 --> 02:23:04,899
that's, that's

11313
02:23:04,899 --> 02:23:05,732
, it's something

11314
02:23:05,732 --> 02:23:06,300
we live and breathe every day

11315
02:23:06,300 --> 02:23:07,680
.

11316
02:23:07,680 --> 02:23:07,233
There's so much going on

11317
02:23:07,233 --> 02:23:07,468
. I

11318
02:23:07,468 --> 02:23:07,835
mean

11319
02:23:07,835 --> 02:23:08,269

Games going on at the

11322

11325
02:23:12,600 --> 02:23:12,273
monstrous

11326
02:23:12,273 --> 02:23:13,308
event

11327
02:23:13,308 --> 02:23:13,741
. And

11328
02:23:13,741 --> 02:23:14,842
so

11329
02:23:14,842 --> 02:23:15,143
, and

11330
02:23:15,143 --> 02:23:15,476

02:23:18,446 --> 02:23:18,846
minute, it

11339
02:23:18,846 --> 02:23:19,681

11349
02:23:24,285 --> 02:23:24,619
it's really

11350
02:23:24,619 --> 02:23:25,220

MAY

11365
02:23:35,797 --> 02:23:36,264
not know

11366
02:23:36,264 --> 02:23:36,831
about as well as

11367
02:23:36,831 --> 02:23:37,832

that go on, but

11371
02:23:38,933 --> 02:23:39,167
we have

11372
02:23:39,167 --> 02:23:40,835
a

11373
02:23:40,835 --> 02:23:41,503
racecar group that's in one of

11374
02:23:41,503 --> 02:23:42,336
our buildings for 5 months

11375
02:23:42,336 --> 02:23:42,771

11376
02:23:42,771 --> 02:23:43,405

02:23:43,405 --> 02:23:43,805
. So anyone who's

11378
02:23:43,805 --> 02:23:44,539
looking

11379
02:23:44,539 --> 02:23:45,600
for a

11380
02:23:45,600 --> 02:23:45,507
winter hobby,

11381
02:23:45,507 --> 02:23:45,907
they do

11382
02:23:45,907 --> 02:23:46,908
carpet

11383
02:23:46,908 --> 02:23:47,209
racing

11384
02:23:47,209 --> 02:23:47,379
. Um

11385
02:23:47,379 --> 02:23:47,843
, we

11386
02:23:47,843 --> 02:23:48,510
do do

11387
02:23:48,510 --> 02:23:49,911
professional trainings

11388
02:23:49,911 --> 02:23:50,278
and things like that. We're

11389
02:23:50,278 --> 02:23:50,679
we

11390
02:23:50,679 --> 02:23:51,313
don't do a

11391
02:23:51,313 --> 02:23:51,680
ton

11392
02:23:51,680 --> 02:23:52,848
of

11393
02:23:52,848 --> 02:23:54,582
the

11394
02:23:54,582 --> 02:23:55,350
um

11395
02:23:55,350 --> 02:23:55,520
one-time private party events

11396
02:23:55,520 --> 02:23:56,840
.

11397
02:23:56,840 --> 02:23:56,685
They just don't tend

11398
02:23:56,685 --> 02:23:57,119
to be the

11399
02:23:57,119 --> 02:23:57,685
best for

11400
02:23:57,685 --> 02:23:58,200
our business model,

11401
02:23:58,200 --> 02:23:58,286
but a

11402
02:23:58,286 --> 02:23:58,787
lot

11403
02:23:58,787 --> 02:23:59,421
of

11404
02:23:59,421 --> 02:23:59,688
the business

11405
02:23:59,688 --> 02:24:00,389
we've

11406
02:24:00,389 --> 02:24:00,689
had some

11407
02:24:00,689 --> 02:24:01,223
state

11408
02:24:01,223 --> 02:24:01,623
school testing

11409
02:24:01,623 --> 02:24:02,391
in their

11410
02:24:02,391 --> 02:24:02,758
homeschool testing in

11411
02:24:02,758 --> 02:24:03,125
there. We

11412
02:24:03,125 --> 02:24:04,359
hope

11413
02:24:04,359 --> 02:24:04,860
that that stays

11414
02:24:04,860 --> 02:24:05,260
and doesn't

11415
02:24:05,260 --> 02:24:05,794
go online

11416
02:24:05,794 --> 02:24:06,228
next year

11417
02:24:06,228 --> 02:24:06,795
but

11418
02:24:06,795 --> 02:24:07,362
those are

11419
02:24:07,362 --> 02:24:07,930
great events and

11420
02:24:07,930 --> 02:24:08,263
those are the things

11421
02:24:08,263 --> 02:24:08,664
that

11422
02:24:08,664 --> 02:24:08,997
actually

11423
02:24:08,997 --> 02:24:09,565
we have a

11424
02:24:09,565 --> 02:24:09,965
little

11425
02:24:09,965 --> 02:24:10,699
more

11426
02:24:10,699 --> 02:24:11,200
bandwidth to take on

11427
02:24:11,200 --> 02:24:11,466
are

11428
02:24:11,466 --> 02:24:11,800
the

11429
02:24:11,800 --> 02:24:13,302
big

11454
02:24:29,918 --> 02:24:30,552
um, and

11455
02:24:30,552 --> 02:24:31,853
then the 4h usage, so a

11456
02:24:31,853 --> 02:24:32,454
lot of

11457
02:24:32,454 --> 02:24:33,880
the barns get used for

11458
02:24:33,880 --> 02:24:34,223
practices. Again, the

11459
02:24:34,223 --> 02:24:34,723
arena

11460
02:24:34,723 --> 02:24:34,990

02:24:34,990 --> 02:24:35,291
is

11462
02:24:35,291 --> 02:24:35,724
the big

11463
02:24:35,724 --> 02:24:36,558
one that used

11464
02:24:36,558 --> 02:24:37,359
by 4h

11465
02:24:37,359 --> 02:24:37,693
4 months out of the year, but

11466
02:24:37,693 --> 02:24:38,693
we also

11467
02:24:38,693 --> 02:24:39,930
have other

11468
02:24:39,930 --> 02:24:39,395
things that

11469
02:24:39,395 --> 02:24:39,728
go

11470
02:24:39,728 --> 02:24:39,995
on. Um

11471
02:24:39,995 --> 02:24:41,197
, we

11472
02:24:41,197 --> 02:24:41,530
actually had, we

11473
02:24:41,530 --> 02:24:41,897
had

11474
02:24:41,897 --> 02:24:42,131
dog clubs out

11475
02:24:42,131 --> 02:24:42,664
there and

11476
02:24:42,664 --> 02:24:43,331
they actually did

11477
02:24:43,331 --> 02:24:43,766
a fundraiser

11478
02:24:43,766 --> 02:24:44,333
to benefit

11479
02:24:44,333 --> 02:24:44,700
the fairgrounds

11480
02:24:44,700 --> 02:24:44,967
, but

11481
02:24:44,967 --> 02:24:46,102
um

11482
02:24:46,102 --> 02:24:46,435

, the

11484
02:24:46,769 --> 02:24:48,336
facility

11485
02:24:48,336 --> 02:24:48,498
we always try to work for

11486
02:24:48,498 --> 02:24:49,370
hn

11487
02:24:49,370 --> 02:24:49,872
sometimes there's a

11488
02:24:49,872 --> 02:24:50,139
little bit

11489
02:24:50,139 --> 02:24:50,773
of

11490
02:24:50,773 --> 02:24:51,140
deconflicting if there's a

11491
02:24:51,140 --> 02:24:52,174
huge

11492
02:24:52,174 --> 02:24:52,541
revenue

11493
02:24:52,541 --> 02:24:53,750
generating event

11494
02:24:53,750 --> 02:24:53,509
such as there's a

11495
02:24:53,509 --> 02:24:53,943
few Fridays

11496
02:24:53,943 --> 02:24:54,477
where they

11497
02:24:54,477 --> 02:24:54,811
, the

11498
02:24:54,811 --> 02:24:55,311
horse clubs

11499
02:24:55,311 --> 02:24:55,611
can't ride on

11500
02:24:55,611 --> 02:24:55,977
Fridays because

11501
02:24:55,977 --> 02:24:56,946
there's

11502
02:24:56,946 --> 02:24:57,280
a big renter in, but a

11503
02:24:57,280 --> 02:24:57,647
lot

11504
02:24:57,647 --> 02:24:58,280
of

11505
02:24:58,280 --> 02:24:58,848
times the people

11506
02:24:58,848 --> 02:24:59,214
are

11507
02:24:59,214 --> 02:24:59,749
running

11508
02:24:59,749 --> 02:25:00,216
the grounds for a

11509
02:25:00,216 --> 02:25:00,950
full

11510
02:25:00,950 --> 02:25:01,551
rental Wednesday

11511
02:25:01,551 --> 02:25:01,918
through Sunday

11512
02:25:01,918 --> 02:25:02,518
and

11513
02:25:02,518 --> 02:25:02,685
they oftentimes

11514
02:25:02,685 --> 02:25:03,520
we can

11515
02:25:03,520 --> 02:25:03,519
still

11516
02:25:03,519 --> 02:25:03,852
get horse

11517
02:25:03,852 --> 02:25:04,253
clubs in

11518
02:25:04,253 --> 02:25:04,921
Wednesday

11519
02:25:04,921 --> 02:25:05,287
, Thursday

11520
02:25:05,287 --> 02:25:06,355
, so

11521
02:25:06,355 --> 02:25:06,622
um it's

11522
02:25:06,622 --> 02:25:06,923
a

11523
02:25:06,923 --> 02:25:07,490
huge

11524
02:25:07,490 --> 02:25:08,570
balancing act

11525
02:25:08,570 --> 02:25:08,624
, but again

11526
02:25:08,624 --> 02:25:09,125
when we

11527
02:25:09,125 --> 02:25:09,492
have, when we

11528
02:25:09,492 --> 02:25:10,493
have

11529
02:25:10,493 --> 02:25:11,427
people chipping into the

11530
02:25:11,427 --> 02:25:12,261
facility like that

11531
02:25:12,261 --> 02:25:12,829
and putting

11532
02:25:12,829 --> 02:25:13,429
money in

11533
02:25:13,429 --> 02:25:13,696
sweat equity

11534
02:25:13,696 --> 02:25:14,960
, we

11535
02:25:14,960 --> 02:25:14,397
really try

11536
02:25:14,397 --> 02:25:15,497
to do

11537
02:25:15,497 --> 02:25:16,650
that

11538
02:25:16,650 --> 02:25:16,699
and

11539
02:25:16,699 --> 02:25:17,601
after

11540
02:25:17,601 --> 02:25:17,967
all, they're prac

11541
02:25:17,967 --> 02:25:18,601
tic ing for

11542
02:25:18,601 --> 02:25:19,202
the Super Bowl and we're in

11543
02:25:19,202 --> 02:25:19,569
charge of the Super Bowl, so

11544
02:25:19,569 --> 02:25:19,902
it's kind

11545
02:25:19,902 --> 02:25:20,269
of a

11546
02:25:20,269 --> 02:25:20,669
, a cycle that

11547
02:25:20,669 --> 02:25:22,205
works out

11548
02:25:22,205 --> 02:25:22,805
. Um, another thing

11549
02:25:22,805 --> 02:25:23,105
that I would like to

11550
02:25:23,105 --> 02:25:23,372
highlight

11551
02:25:23,372 --> 02:25:24,106
is

11552
02:25:24,106 --> 02:25:24,440
4 times a year

11553
02:25:24,440 --> 02:25:24,773
, we

11554
02:25:24,773 --> 02:25:26,275
have the

11555
02:25:26,275 --> 02:25:26,910
one

11556
02:25:26,910 --> 02:25:28,411
day offender

11557
02:25:28,411 --> 02:25:28,811
, um, program

11558
02:25:28,811 --> 02:25:30,613
with the

11559
02:25:30,613 --> 02:25:31,470
jail alternatives um

11560
02:25:31,470 --> 02:25:31,447
through the

11561
02:25:31,447 --> 02:25:31,781
sheriff's

11562
02:25:31,781 --> 02:25:32,882
office

11563
02:25:32,882 --> 02:25:33,149
and so

11564
02:25:33,149 --> 02:25:33,449
I know

11565
02:25:33,449 --> 02:25:33,883
that

11566
02:25:33,883 --> 02:25:34,416
most people

11567
02:25:34,416 --> 02:25:35,151
don't know about

11568
02:25:35,151 --> 02:25:35,618
this. We

11569
02:25:35,618 --> 02:25:35,885
do

11570
02:25:35,885 --> 02:25:37,587
have

11571
02:25:37,587 --> 02:25:38,880
, um, one

11572
02:25:38,880 --> 02:25:38,621
in typically the

11573
02:25:38,621 --> 02:25:39,455
spring, one in

11574
02:25:39,455 --> 02:25:39,923
the

11575
02:25:39,923 --> 02:25:40,290
fall

11576
02:25:40,290 --> 02:25:40,857
. We

11577
02:25:40,857 --> 02:25:41,124
have one

11578
02:25:41,124 --> 02:25:41,992
coming

11579
02:25:41,992 --> 02:25:42,292
up here

11580
02:25:42,292 --> 02:25:42,759
in

11581
02:25:42,759 --> 02:25:43,293
JULY

11582
02:25:43,293 --> 02:25:44,360
and

11583
02:25:44,360 --> 02:25:44,761
then

11584
02:25:44,761 --> 02:25:45,495
the

11585
02:25:45,495 --> 02:25:45,663
alternative staff

11586
02:25:45,663 --> 02:25:45,828
,

11587
02:25:45,828 --> 02:25:46,463
they

11588
02:25:46,463 --> 02:25:47,960
actually

11589
02:25:47,960 --> 02:25:47,497
engineered one to

11590
02:25:47,497 --> 02:25:47,864
have one

11591
02:25:47,864 --> 02:25:48,365
right after

11592
02:25:48,365 --> 02:25:49,499
the fair

11593
02:25:49,499 --> 02:25:49,899
for tear down, but I can tell

11594
02:25:49,899 --> 02:25:50,467
you

11595
02:25:50,467 --> 02:25:50,800
those JULY and

11596
02:25:50,800 --> 02:25:51,902
those

11597
02:25:51,902 --> 02:25:52,469
AUGUST

11598
02:25:52,469 --> 02:25:53,403
dates

11599
02:25:53,403 --> 02:25:54,137
, we

11600
02:25:54,137 --> 02:25:54,404
would be in a

11601
02:25:54,404 --> 02:25:54,671
world

11602
02:25:54,671 --> 02:25:55,205
of

11603
02:25:55,205 --> 02:25:55,738
hurt without

11604
02:25:55,738 --> 02:25:56,773
those, so

11605
02:25:56,773 --> 02:25:57,407
there's a lot of labor that

11606
02:25:57,407 --> 02:25:58,275
goes into that

11607
02:25:58,275 --> 02:25:58,775
, um, and I know

11608
02:25:58,775 --> 02:26:00,277
that program it

11609
02:26:00,277 --> 02:26:01,110
saves

11610
02:26:01,110 --> 02:26:01,678
incarceration time, so it's

11611
02:26:01,678 --> 02:26:02,345
, I

11612
02:26:02,345 --> 02:26:02,746
think a couple of days

11613
02:26:02,746 --> 02:26:02,979
in

11614
02:26:02,979 --> 02:26:03,280
jail.

11615
02:26:03,280 --> 02:26:04,381
People

11616
02:26:04,381 --> 02:26:05,248
work it off

11617
02:26:05,248 --> 02:26:05,549
, but if

11618
02:26:05,549 --> 02:26:07,217
that

11619
02:26:07,217 --> 02:26:07,616
program is paramount to

11620
02:26:07,616 --> 02:26:08,217
our

11621
02:26:08,217 --> 02:26:09,119
success

11622
02:26:09,119 --> 02:26:09,452
. And I

11623
02:26:09,452 --> 02:26:09,886
would just like

11624
02:26:09,886 --> 02:26:10,853
to call out

11625
02:26:10,853 --> 02:26:11,588
the staff over

11626
02:26:11,588 --> 02:26:12,422
there. They, they have been

11627
02:26:12,422 --> 02:26:13,223
super accommodating and I

11628
02:26:13,223 --> 02:26:13,724
know

11629
02:26:13,724 --> 02:26:14,424
the August

11630
02:26:14,424 --> 02:26:15,892
1, uh, that they

11631
02:26:15,892 --> 02:26:16,159
engineered for us. I

11632
02:26:16,159 --> 02:26:16,492
know

11633
02:26:16,492 --> 02:26:17,728
that

11634
02:26:17,728 --> 02:26:18,662
the

11635
02:26:18,662 --> 02:26:18,929
um department deputies

11636
02:26:18,929 --> 02:26:19,196
,

11637
02:26:19,196 --> 02:26:20,330
they

11638
02:26:20,330 --> 02:26:20,631
, it took a hit to

11639
02:26:20,631 --> 02:26:21,297
their

11640
02:26:21,297 --> 02:26:21,598
vacation and their planning and

11641
02:26:21,598 --> 02:26:22,366
they

11642
02:26:22,366 --> 02:26:22,866
, they

11643
02:26:22,866 --> 02:26:23,533
sacrifice for us to

11644
02:26:23,533 --> 02:26:23,767
do that because they know what

11645
02:26:23,767 --> 02:26:24,534
it

11646
02:26:24,534 --> 02:26:24,801
takes to

11647
02:26:24,801 --> 02:26:25,769
put

11648
02:26:25,769 --> 02:26:26,236
together, so

11649
02:26:26,236 --> 02:26:27,370
just some of

11650
02:26:27,370 --> 02:26:27,638
the things behind

11651
02:26:27,638 --> 02:26:29,206
the scenes

11652
02:26:29,206 --> 02:26:29,673
. Um

11653
02:26:29,673 --> 02:26:30,341
, I don't have,

11654
02:26:30,341 --> 02:26:30,607
we can't go through all this,

11655
02:26:30,607 --> 02:26:31,775
but

11656
02:26:31,775 --> 02:26:32,109
here's kind of a snapshot

11657
02:26:32,109 --> 02:26:33,777
of the

11658
02:26:33,777 --> 02:26:34,278
year-round calendar

11659
02:26:34,278 --> 02:26:34,777
, um,

11660
02:26:34,777 --> 02:26:35,813
a lot going on

11661
02:26:35,813 --> 02:26:36,146
, a lot

11662
02:26:36,146 --> 02:26:36,310
going on

11663
02:26:36,310 --> 02:26:36,653
.

11664
02:26:36,653 --> 02:26:37,114
So

11665
02:26:37,114 --> 02:26:38,615
, um, we

11666
02:26:38,615 --> 02:26:39,416
do have to block out

11667
02:26:39,416 --> 02:26:40,150
the ferret a little bit

11668
02:26:40,150 --> 02:26:40,684
around

11669
02:26:40,684 --> 02:26:41,352
the fair time

11670
02:26:41,352 --> 02:26:43,153
, but

11671
02:26:43,153 --> 02:26:43,621
, um, I know

11672
02:26:43,621 --> 02:26:44,254
I've said

11673
02:26:44,254 --> 02:26:45,220
this every year, but

11674
02:26:45,220 --> 02:26:45,322
I

11675
02:26:45,322 --> 02:26:45,923
, my

11676
02:26:45,923 --> 02:26:46,390
sanity and

11677
02:26:46,390 --> 02:26:46,957
the calendar

11678
02:26:46,957 --> 02:26:47,625
,

11679
02:26:47,625 --> 02:26:48,125
I said I don't know what else

11680
02:26:48,125 --> 02:26:48,425
we can put in

11681
02:26:48,425 --> 02:26:49,590
the

11682
02:26:49,590 --> 02:26:49,259
busy season

11683
02:26:49,259 --> 02:26:49,559
,

11684
02:26:49,559 --> 02:26:50,528
but

11685
02:26:50,528 --> 02:26:50,861
, um, you know

11686
02:26:50,861 --> 02:26:51,195
, both

11687
02:26:51,195 --> 02:26:51,562
for

11688
02:26:51,562 --> 02:26:51,962
motivation

11689
02:26:51,962 --> 02:26:52,530
and this

11690
02:26:52,530 --> 02:26:53,130
is what we

11691
02:26:53,130 --> 02:26:53,630
do, this is

11692
02:26:53,630 --> 02:26:54,310
what we need

11693
02:26:54,310 --> 02:26:54,331
to do

11694
02:26:54,331 --> 02:26:54,799
,

11695
02:26:54,799 --> 02:26:55,990
and there is

11696
02:26:55,990 --> 02:26:55,566
, yes

11697
02:26:55,566 --> 02:26:55,933
, there's,

11698
02:26:55,933 --> 02:26:56,733
there's

11699
02:26:56,733 --> 02:26:57,301
, there's

11700
02:26:57,301 --> 02:26:58,200
financial

11701
02:26:58,200 --> 02:26:58,402
pressures on

11702
02:26:58,402 --> 02:26:58,669
everybody right

11703
02:26:58,669 --> 02:26:59,436
now

11704
02:26:59,436 --> 02:27:00,471
. So

11705
02:27:00,471 --> 02:27:01,172
, um, you know, if

11706
02:27:01,172 --> 02:27:01,439
someone wants to rent

11707
02:27:01,439 --> 02:27:01,616
all

11708
02:27:01,616 --> 02:27:02,600
the

11709
02:27:02,600 --> 02:27:03,400
fairgrounds in

11710
02:27:03,400 --> 02:27:03,907

11711
02:27:03,907 --> 02:27:04,408
it, I

11712
02:27:04,408 --> 02:27:05,209
can't do the

11713
02:27:05,209 --> 02:27:05,810
whole fairgrounds,

11714
02:27:05,810 --> 02:27:05,978
but you want to do

11715
02:27:05,978 --> 02:27:07,311
a

11716
02:27:07,311 --> 02:27:08,450
camp out

11717
02:27:08,450 --> 02:27:08,312

11718
02:27:08,312 --> 02:27:08,846

11719
02:27:08,846 --> 02:27:09,579
South parking lot

11720
02:27:09,579 --> 02:27:09,880
with the

11721
02:27:09,880 --> 02:27:10,748

11722
02:27:10,748 --> 02:27:11,115
Let's play ball. It's

11723
02:27:11,115 --> 02:27:12,316
kind

11724
02:27:12,316 --> 02:27:12,750
of what we do

11725
02:27:12,750 --> 02:27:14,510
. So

11726
02:27:14,510 --> 02:27:14,485
, um, I do

11727
02:27:14,485 --> 02:27:15,152
kind of

11728
02:27:15,152 --> 02:27:15,520
question sometimes when

11729
02:27:15,520 --> 02:27:16,870
we say yes

11730
02:27:16,870 --> 02:27:16,620

11731
02:27:16,620 --> 02:27:17,321
them in

11732
02:27:17,321 --> 02:27:17,955
later and we're in the

11733
02:27:17,955 --> 02:27:18,255
moment and

11734
02:27:18,255 --> 02:27:18,890
doing

11735
02:27:18,890 --> 02:27:19,957
1000 things

11736
02:27:19,957 --> 02:27:20,424

11737
02:27:20,424 --> 02:27:20,958
but um, you

11738
02:27:20,958 --> 02:27:21,392
know, when

11739
02:27:21,392 --> 02:27:21,793
you get

11740
02:27:21,793 --> 02:27:22,393
done with

11741
02:27:22,393 --> 02:27:22,660

11748
02:27:25,530 --> 02:27:26,960

down to

11831
02:28:17,115 --> 02:28:18,160

11839
02:28:20,952 --> 02:28:21,319
profit to

11840
02:28:21,319 --> 02:28:22,554
run it

11841
02:28:22,554 --> 02:28:22,988
, but it's

11842
02:28:22,988 --> 02:28:23,221
it's

11843
02:28:23,221 --> 02:28:23,522
low

11844
02:28:23,522 --> 02:28:24,323

11845
02:28:24,323 --> 02:28:24,589

to afford more

11851
02:28:28,193 --> 02:28:29,194

and dare I

12096
02:31:02,215 --> 02:31:02,649
say probably will not receive

12097
02:31:02,649 --> 02:31:04,649
general funds

12098
02:31:04,652 --> 02:31:04,952
for many years to

12099
02:31:04,952 --> 02:31:06,419
come

12100
02:31:06,419 --> 02:31:08,422
. So it's been like that

12101
02:31:08,422 --> 02:31:08,689
since 2009. So all

12102
02:31:08,689 --> 02:31:08,857
of

12103
02:31:08,857 --> 02:31:09,290
this

12104
02:31:09,290 --> 02:31:10,591
impact is

12105
02:31:10,591 --> 02:31:10,958
happening

12106
02:31:10,958 --> 02:31:11,561
without any

12107
02:31:11,561 --> 02:31:12,960
general funds

12108
02:31:12,960 --> 02:31:13,660
going to

12109
02:31:13,660 --> 02:31:15,396
operations and so

12110
02:31:15,396 --> 02:31:15,596
, um, and

12111
02:31:15,596 --> 02:31:15,996
that

12112
02:31:15,996 --> 02:31:16,464
includes all

12113
02:31:16,464 --> 02:31:17,264
of our

12114
02:31:17,264 --> 02:31:18,990
annual

12115
02:31:18,990 --> 02:31:18,799
operating costs and so

12116
02:31:18,799 --> 02:31:19,567
oftentimes when I'm

12117
02:31:19,567 --> 02:31:20,300
having

12118
02:31:20,300 --> 02:31:20,568
conversations they're going, oh

12119
02:31:20,568 --> 02:31:20,935
but

12120
02:31:20,935 --> 02:31:22,803
you know

12121
02:31:22,803 --> 02:31:23,170
are you

12122
02:31:23,170 --> 02:31:23,771
, but

12123
02:31:23,771 --> 02:31:24,400
you're paid by the

12124
02:31:24,400 --> 02:31:24,705
count the

12125
02:31:24,705 --> 02:31:24,972
staff, and it's like, oh, we

12126
02:31:24,972 --> 02:31:26,307
are

12127
02:31:26,307 --> 02:31:27,700
very supported by the

12128
02:31:27,700 --> 02:31:27,408
county and we appreciate that,

12129
02:31:27,408 --> 02:31:28,575
but no, we

12130
02:31:28,575 --> 02:31:28,909
are not

12131
02:31:28,909 --> 02:31:29,770
. So all

12132
02:31:29,770 --> 02:31:29,677
the

12133
02:31:29,677 --> 02:31:31,145
staffing and all that

12134
02:31:31,145 --> 02:31:31,879
is

12135
02:31:31,879 --> 02:31:32,480
paid

12136
02:31:32,480 --> 02:31:33,147
by revenues at

12137
02:31:33,147 --> 02:31:33,414
the fairgrounds,

12138
02:31:33,414 --> 02:31:34,981
and

12139
02:31:34,981 --> 02:31:35,483
and

12140
02:31:35,483 --> 02:31:36,150
so that's kind of the

12141
02:31:36,150 --> 02:31:37,351
story that we try and

12142
02:31:37,351 --> 02:31:38,152
keep

12143
02:31:38,152 --> 02:31:38,753
telling. And so I know we're

12144
02:31:38,753 --> 02:31:39,854
going into a difficult

12145
02:31:39,854 --> 02:31:40,588
budget

12146
02:31:40,588 --> 02:31:41,856
season too as well, and

12147
02:31:41,856 --> 02:31:42,523
there's

12148
02:31:42,523 --> 02:31:43,910
you, everyone's going to see

12149
02:31:43,910 --> 02:31:43,390
things and it's hard

12150
02:31:43,390 --> 02:31:43,758
. Programs

12151
02:31:43,758 --> 02:31:44,325
are going

12152
02:31:44,325 --> 02:31:44,692
to get cut

12153
02:31:44,692 --> 02:31:45,930
and things

12154
02:31:45,930 --> 02:31:45,827
like that

12155
02:31:45,827 --> 02:31:46,594
, but we're

12156
02:31:46,594 --> 02:31:47,528
the reason

12157
02:31:47,528 --> 02:31:48,629
why we're still standing

12158
02:31:48,629 --> 02:31:49,564
is

12159
02:31:49,564 --> 02:31:49,797
because we're able to do

12160
02:31:49,797 --> 02:31:50,398
that,

12161
02:31:50,398 --> 02:31:51,650
you know, with

12162
02:31:51,650 --> 02:31:51,565
the

12163
02:31:51,565 --> 02:31:52,990
revenues

12164
02:31:52,990 --> 02:31:52,533
that we

12165
02:31:52,533 --> 02:31:53,834
, that we make

12166
02:31:53,834 --> 02:31:54,335
and so

12167
02:31:54,335 --> 02:31:54,969
everyone's got a

12168
02:31:54,969 --> 02:31:55,937
cause right

12169
02:31:55,937 --> 02:31:56,371
now. I

12170
02:31:56,371 --> 02:31:56,871
know that

12171
02:31:56,871 --> 02:31:57,571
you guys are

12172
02:31:57,571 --> 02:31:58,390
,

12173
02:31:58,390 --> 02:31:58,339
you probably

12174
02:31:58,339 --> 02:31:58,873
getting flooded

12175
02:31:58,873 --> 02:31:59,707
with the, you know

12176
02:31:59,707 --> 02:32:00,942
, when

12177
02:32:00,942 --> 02:32:01,209
GoFundMe's and all that stuff

12178
02:32:01,209 --> 02:32:01,643
,

12179
02:32:01,643 --> 02:32:01,909
because a lot

12180
02:32:01,909 --> 02:32:02,477
of

12181
02:32:02,477 --> 02:32:03,177
nonprofits

12182
02:32:03,177 --> 02:32:03,878
they're looking for help and

12183
02:32:03,878 --> 02:32:04,145
it's just, it's

12184
02:32:04,145 --> 02:32:04,545
, it's a

12185
02:32:04,545 --> 02:32:04,913
tough

12186
02:32:04,913 --> 02:32:05,779
thing but

12187
02:32:05,779 --> 02:32:06,470
my pitch

12188
02:32:06,470 --> 02:32:06,548
to all you

12189
02:32:06,548 --> 02:32:06,948
guys out there and

12190
02:32:06,948 --> 02:32:07,916
business

12191
02:32:07,916 --> 02:32:09,717
owners is when you guys support

12192
02:32:09,717 --> 02:32:09,894
the fairgrounds

12193
02:32:09,894 --> 02:32:10,552
, the

12194
02:32:10,552 --> 02:32:11,119
fairgrounds are supporting

12195
02:32:11,119 --> 02:32:11,719
the

12196
02:32:11,719 --> 02:32:12,253
local economy, right

12197
02:32:12,253 --> 02:32:12,620
? So we

12198
02:32:12,620 --> 02:32:13,822
have

12199
02:32:13,822 --> 02:32:14,555
many ways to

12200
02:32:14,555 --> 02:32:15,657
to donate

12201
02:32:15,657 --> 02:32:16,257
and

12202
02:32:16,257 --> 02:32:16,725
get involved to

12203
02:32:16,725 --> 02:32:18,259
help continue

12204
02:32:18,259 --> 02:32:18,859
supporting this. So whether you

12205
02:32:18,859 --> 02:32:20,228
give to the 4h, which

12206
02:32:20,228 --> 02:32:20,962
is

12207
02:32:20,962 --> 02:32:21,696
self-sustaining itself, or if

12208
02:32:21,696 --> 02:32:22,863
you do a sponsorship with

12209
02:32:22,863 --> 02:32:23,265
the

12210
02:32:23,265 --> 02:32:23,531
fair

12211
02:32:23,531 --> 02:32:24,320
or

12212
02:32:24,320 --> 02:32:24,298
there's other options

12213
02:32:24,298 --> 02:32:25,200
too

12214
02:32:25,200 --> 02:32:25,533
you can give to the

12215
02:32:25,533 --> 02:32:26,167
new

12216
02:32:26,167 --> 02:32:27,635
fairgrounds

12217
02:32:27,635 --> 02:32:28,270
, um, nonprofit

12218
02:32:28,270 --> 02:32:28,870
foundation. So there's just a

12219
02:32:28,870 --> 02:32:29,404
lot of different

12220
02:32:29,404 --> 02:32:30,238
ways

12221
02:32:30,238 --> 02:32:31,239
, but

12222
02:32:31,239 --> 02:32:32,339
there's a lot of different ways

12223
02:32:32,339 --> 02:32:32,841
people can say that they have

12224
02:32:32,841 --> 02:32:33,108
the impact

12225
02:32:33,108 --> 02:32:33,541
, but

12226
02:32:33,541 --> 02:32:34,576
this is

12227
02:32:34,576 --> 02:32:34,943
we

12228
02:32:34,943 --> 02:32:36,143
create fun

12229
02:32:36,143 --> 02:32:36,912
, we create education

12230
02:32:36,912 --> 02:32:37,145
we create lasting memories, and

12231
02:32:37,145 --> 02:32:38,647
we

12232
02:32:38,647 --> 02:32:38,880
create huge economic impact.

12233
02:32:38,880 --> 02:32:40,682
So

12234
02:32:40,682 --> 02:32:40,860
um that's just kind

12235
02:32:40,860 --> 02:32:41,349
of

12236
02:32:41,349 --> 02:32:41,582
everyone out there

12237
02:32:41,582 --> 02:32:41,949
, so

12238
02:32:41,949 --> 02:32:43,384
, um

12239
02:32:43,384 --> 02:32:45,384
. Yep

12240
02:32:45,820 --> 02:32:47,455
So

12241
02:32:47,455 --> 02:32:48,190
capital projects

12242
02:32:48,190 --> 02:32:50,190
, um, we are

12243
02:32:50,359 --> 02:32:50,692
uh, always trying to move the

12244
02:32:50,692 --> 02:32:51,860
needle

12245
02:32:51,860 --> 02:32:52,494
forward on um

12246
02:32:52,494 --> 02:32:52,860
you know,

12247
02:32:52,860 --> 02:32:54,329
improving

12248
02:32:54,329 --> 02:32:54,630
the fair ground so

12249
02:32:54,630 --> 02:32:56,431
the

12250
02:32:56,431 --> 02:32:56,832
um, we've had

12251
02:32:56,832 --> 02:32:57,650
some

12252
02:32:57,650 --> 02:32:57,265
wsd

12253
02:32:57,265 --> 02:32:57,566
wsda

12254
02:32:57,566 --> 02:32:58,967
grants

12255
02:32:58,967 --> 02:32:59,234
, which have been really

12256
02:32:59,234 --> 02:32:59,568
good

12257
02:32:59,568 --> 02:33:01,300
for us

12258
02:33:01,300 --> 02:33:01,436
. Um

12259
02:33:01,436 --> 02:33:01,702
, so the

12260
02:33:01,702 --> 02:33:02,103
, we put

12261
02:33:02,103 --> 02:33:03,138
a new

12262
02:33:03,138 --> 02:33:03,538
restroom

12263
02:33:03,538 --> 02:33:04,239
facility in

12264
02:33:04,239 --> 02:33:04,606
, um,

12265
02:33:04,606 --> 02:33:06,375
last year

12266
02:33:06,375 --> 02:33:08,375
. Um, which we

12267
02:33:08,444 --> 02:33:09,378
got

12268
02:33:09,378 --> 02:33:09,977
$250,000 from wsda

12269
02:33:09,977 --> 02:33:10,312
. We

12270
02:33:10,312 --> 02:33:10,813
finished

12271
02:33:10,813 --> 02:33:12,470
our sewer line

12272
02:33:12,470 --> 02:33:12,281
in 2024

12273
02:33:12,281 --> 02:33:12,581
. Luckily

12274
02:33:12,581 --> 02:33:13,248
before

12275
02:33:13,248 --> 02:33:14,316
the 2024 fair, we

12276
02:33:14,316 --> 02:33:14,950
had

12277
02:33:14,950 --> 02:33:15,517
some, you know

12278
02:33:15,517 --> 02:33:15,851
, sewer line

12279
02:33:15,851 --> 02:33:16,752
issues

12280
02:33:16,752 --> 02:33:17,850
during

12281
02:33:17,850 --> 02:33:17,619
major

12282
02:33:17,619 --> 02:33:19,619
events are

12283
02:33:20,155 --> 02:33:20,456
uh, they're memorable and not

12284
02:33:20,456 --> 02:33:21,560
in the

12285
02:33:21,560 --> 02:33:21,557
right way

12286
02:33:21,557 --> 02:33:21,857
, so

12287
02:33:21,857 --> 02:33:23,292
I just

12288
02:33:23,292 --> 02:33:24,126
I

12289
02:33:24,126 --> 02:33:24,460

12290
02:33:24,460 --> 02:33:25,728

12291
02:33:25,728 --> 02:33:26,295

by the

12336
02:33:51,354 --> 02:33:51,954
fairgrounds, but

12337
02:33:51,954 --> 02:33:52,220
our staff did

12338
02:33:52,220 --> 02:33:52,488
that

12339
02:33:52,488 --> 02:33:53,550

12356
02:34:04,167 --> 02:34:04,633

12367
02:34:11,374 --> 02:34:11,741
we are

12368
02:34:11,741 --> 02:34:12,675

12369
02:34:12,675 --> 02:34:13,942

02:34:16,379 --> 02:34:17,446
rv areas, some of

12374
02:34:17,446 --> 02:34:18,448
the horse

12375
02:34:18,448 --> 02:34:20,160
barns, again, some of that not

12376
02:34:20,160 --> 02:34:20,350
gonna happen probably until

12377
02:34:20,350 --> 02:34:20,783
this

12378
02:34:20,783 --> 02:34:21,951
next

12379
02:34:21,951 --> 02:34:22,184
offseason

12380
02:34:22,184 --> 02:34:22,585
. Um

12381
02:34:22,585 --> 02:34:23,520
, we do

12382
02:34:23,520 --> 02:34:23,353
have new

12383
02:34:23,353 --> 02:34:24,321
swine

12384
02:34:24,321 --> 02:34:25,550
pens in

12385
02:34:25,550 --> 02:34:25,488
and then

12386
02:34:25,488 --> 02:34:26,210
uh we're

12387
02:34:26,210 --> 02:34:26,456
working on some of

12388
02:34:26,456 --> 02:34:26,756
the

12389
02:34:26,756 --> 02:34:27,157
new

12390
02:34:27,157 --> 02:34:27,857
portable

12391
02:34:27,857 --> 02:34:28,958
ada

12392
02:34:28,958 --> 02:34:29,859
bleachers and

12393
02:34:29,859 --> 02:34:31,940
much to

12394
02:34:31,940 --> 02:34:31,328
the delight of all

12395
02:34:31,328 --> 02:34:32,610
the

12396
02:34:32,610 --> 02:34:33,290
Anbarn superintendents

12397
02:34:33,290 --> 02:34:33,797
, we

12398
02:34:33,797 --> 02:34:34,130
have

12399
02:34:34,130 --> 02:34:34,531
no

12400
02:34:34,531 --> 02:34:35,699
dogs allowed

12401
02:34:35,699 --> 02:34:36,990
in

12402
02:34:36,990 --> 02:34:36,566
barns for

12403
02:34:36,566 --> 02:34:38,566
the entire

12404
02:34:38,602 --> 02:34:38,935
, uh, barns

12405
02:34:38,935 --> 02:34:39,112
, so it's

12406
02:34:39,112 --> 02:34:39,501
,

12407
02:34:39,501 --> 02:34:40,269
it's kind of

12408
02:34:40,269 --> 02:34:41,771
an issue of

12409
02:34:41,771 --> 02:34:42,372
getting people at the gates to

12410
02:34:42,372 --> 02:34:43,390
do that

12411
02:34:43,390 --> 02:34:43,440
, um, so we

12412
02:34:43,440 --> 02:34:44,975
. We

12413
02:34:44,975 --> 02:34:45,509
we got

12414
02:34:45,509 --> 02:34:46,610
grants to do that

12415
02:34:46,610 --> 02:34:47,244
, so they'll

12416
02:34:47,244 --> 02:34:47,943
be outside all the animal barns

12417
02:34:47,943 --> 02:34:49,679
and and just for the public

12418
02:34:49,679 --> 02:34:49,946
knows too, um, of

12419
02:34:49,946 --> 02:34:50,280
course

12420
02:34:50,280 --> 02:34:51,181
service

12421
02:34:51,181 --> 02:34:51,481
animals are allowed,

12422
02:34:51,481 --> 02:34:51,782
but

12423
02:34:51,782 --> 02:34:52,150
all the

12424
02:34:52,150 --> 02:34:52,449
the

12425
02:34:52,449 --> 02:34:53,950
animals go

12426
02:34:53,950 --> 02:34:54,183
through that check and so it's

12427
02:34:54,183 --> 02:34:54,952
a

12428
02:34:54,952 --> 02:34:56,219
real safety issue. So animals

12429
02:34:56,219 --> 02:34:56,384
bring in for vet check and

12430
02:34:56,384 --> 02:34:57,870
then

12431
02:34:57,870 --> 02:34:57,921
you bring a bunch of animals

12432
02:34:57,921 --> 02:34:58,355
that

12433
02:34:58,355 --> 02:34:59,890
aren't

12434
02:34:59,890 --> 02:34:59,723
vet checked, and it

12435
02:34:59,723 --> 02:35:00,824
just creates

12436
02:35:00,824 --> 02:35:01,580
, um, you know

12437
02:35:01,580 --> 02:35:01,892
, an

12438
02:35:01,892 --> 02:35:02,259
environment where a lot of

12439
02:35:02,259 --> 02:35:02,559
people are

12440
02:35:02,559 --> 02:35:03,930
being

12441
02:35:03,930 --> 02:35:03,994
really

12442
02:35:03,994 --> 02:35:04,261
responsible and taken care of

12443
02:35:04,261 --> 02:35:04,761
and

12444
02:35:04,761 --> 02:35:05,620
they're going, this

12445
02:35:05,620 --> 02:35:06,290
is the

12446
02:35:06,290 --> 02:35:06,763
Super Bowl and they're, they've

12447
02:35:06,763 --> 02:35:07,698
done all the things and

12448
02:35:07,698 --> 02:35:08,640
then

12449
02:35:08,640 --> 02:35:08,332
you just

12450
02:35:08,332 --> 02:35:10,670
bring

12451
02:35:10,670 --> 02:35:10,601
it outside kind

12452
02:35:10,601 --> 02:35:11,680
of thing that

12453
02:35:11,680 --> 02:35:11,668
hasn't been

12454
02:35:11,668 --> 02:35:12,235
checked in

12455
02:35:12,235 --> 02:35:12,446
and so we just

12456
02:35:12,446 --> 02:35:12,836
try

12457
02:35:12,836 --> 02:35:13,237
to, there's

12458
02:35:13,237 --> 02:35:13,637
a lot of

12459
02:35:13,637 --> 02:35:13,937
safety

12460
02:35:13,937 --> 02:35:14,504
that

12461
02:35:14,504 --> 02:35:15,439
goes into that

12462
02:35:15,439 --> 02:35:16,106
, so

12463
02:35:16,106 --> 02:35:17,740
I know

12464
02:35:17,740 --> 02:35:17,540
sometimes when you explain that

12465
02:35:17,540 --> 02:35:18,275
to the public

12466
02:35:18,275 --> 02:35:19,420
, some people, it

12467
02:35:19,420 --> 02:35:19,410
MAY not matter, but some people

12468
02:35:19,410 --> 02:35:19,742
go, oh wow

12469
02:35:19,742 --> 02:35:20,511
, that's the light

12470
02:35:20,511 --> 02:35:21,440
bulb goes off like, oh, this is

12471
02:35:21,440 --> 02:35:21,544
why we do that

12472
02:35:21,544 --> 02:35:22,780
. So

12473
02:35:22,780 --> 02:35:23,547
, uh, we're

12474
02:35:23,547 --> 02:35:23,914
also working on some sound

12475
02:35:23,914 --> 02:35:25,480
system

12476
02:35:25,480 --> 02:35:25,581
upgrades for the

12477
02:35:25,581 --> 02:35:25,916
pavilion. I know

12478
02:35:25,916 --> 02:35:26,249
during

12479
02:35:26,249 --> 02:35:26,783
the

12480
02:35:26,783 --> 02:35:28,285
livestock sale

12481
02:35:28,285 --> 02:35:29,353
. Um, we

12482
02:35:29,353 --> 02:35:30,200
, people

12483
02:35:30,200 --> 02:35:31,555
bought portable systems

12484
02:35:31,555 --> 02:35:32,289
because

12485
02:35:32,289 --> 02:35:32,690
our main system needs an

12486
02:35:32,690 --> 02:35:33,757
upgrade

12487
02:35:33,757 --> 02:35:34,492
. So

12488
02:35:34,492 --> 02:35:34,692
, um, also

12489
02:35:34,692 --> 02:35:35,192
I just

12490
02:35:35,192 --> 02:35:36,260
for the funding

12491
02:35:36,260 --> 02:35:36,927
, I know

12492
02:35:36,927 --> 02:35:37,128
commissioners you guys

12493
02:35:37,128 --> 02:35:37,595
um like

12494
02:35:37,595 --> 02:35:39,230
to be kept

12495
02:35:39,230 --> 02:35:39,997
, you know

12496
02:35:39,997 --> 02:35:40,398
, um, up on

12497
02:35:40,398 --> 02:35:41,499
this

12498
02:35:41,499 --> 02:35:42,866
, but wsda does have

12499
02:35:42,866 --> 02:35:43,534
um,

12500
02:35:43,534 --> 02:35:43,934
two funds for us from the state

12501
02:35:43,934 --> 02:35:45,202
so we are

12502
02:35:45,202 --> 02:35:45,736
. By

12503
02:35:45,736 --> 02:35:46,302
and large not

12504
02:35:46,302 --> 02:35:47,771
publicly funded

12505
02:35:47,771 --> 02:35:48,239
, um, but we do

12506
02:35:48,239 --> 02:35:48,505
get some money

12507
02:35:48,505 --> 02:35:49,874
from

12508
02:35:49,874 --> 02:35:50,808
wsda. So if

12509
02:35:50,808 --> 02:35:51,675
we are commissioners, if

12510
02:35:51,675 --> 02:35:51,943
you

12511
02:35:51,943 --> 02:35:52,410
guys

12512
02:35:52,410 --> 02:35:52,743
are

12513
02:35:52,743 --> 02:35:53,177
ever

12514
02:35:53,177 --> 02:35:54,780
um with

12515
02:35:54,780 --> 02:35:54,645
local

12516
02:35:54,645 --> 02:35:55,120
legislators who MAY

12517
02:35:55,120 --> 02:35:55,680
have that

12518
02:35:55,680 --> 02:35:56,681
the

12519
02:35:56,681 --> 02:35:56,980
fair funding

12520
02:35:56,980 --> 02:35:57,448
obviously it's

12521
02:35:57,448 --> 02:35:57,882
going to be

12522
02:35:57,882 --> 02:35:58,549
, uh, it's going

12523
02:35:58,549 --> 02:35:59,160
to

12524
02:35:59,160 --> 02:35:59,583
be up for

12525
02:35:59,583 --> 02:35:59,750
discussion

12526
02:35:59,750 --> 02:36:00,418
and

12527
02:36:00,418 --> 02:36:01,151
absolutely will be on the

12528
02:36:01,151 --> 02:36:01,418
chopping

12529
02:36:01,418 --> 02:36:01,919
block

12530
02:36:01,919 --> 02:36:02,186
100% and

12531
02:36:02,186 --> 02:36:02,820
with

12532
02:36:02,820 --> 02:36:03,320
this, you know, the way

12533
02:36:03,320 --> 02:36:03,654
the

12534
02:36:03,654 --> 02:36:04,880
state

12535
02:36:04,880 --> 02:36:04,388
budget's going

12536
02:36:04,388 --> 02:36:05,550
, but

12537
02:36:05,550 --> 02:36:05,490
there's two

12538
02:36:05,490 --> 02:36:05,923
fair

12539
02:36:05,923 --> 02:36:06,357
funds

12540
02:36:06,357 --> 02:36:06,891
that

12541
02:36:06,891 --> 02:36:07,558
that

12542
02:36:07,558 --> 02:36:07,892
um come from the

12543
02:36:07,892 --> 02:36:08,693
state, so

12544
02:36:08,693 --> 02:36:09,326
there's more of an

12545
02:36:09,326 --> 02:36:09,827
operating

12546
02:36:09,827 --> 02:36:10,461
one

12547
02:36:10,461 --> 02:36:10,795
, it's called the

12548
02:36:10,795 --> 02:36:11,610
Fair Fund,

12549
02:36:11,610 --> 02:36:11,395
and

12550
02:36:11,395 --> 02:36:12,960
so that

12551
02:36:12,960 --> 02:36:12,730
, um

12552
02:36:12,730 --> 02:36:13,310
, by

12553
02:36:13,310 --> 02:36:13,665
and large,

12554
02:36:13,665 --> 02:36:14,310
we take a lot of that and put

12555
02:36:14,310 --> 02:36:14,498
it towards

12556
02:36:14,498 --> 02:36:14,799
the premiums

12557
02:36:14,799 --> 02:36:15,990
. So

12558
02:36:15,990 --> 02:36:16,768
that's

12559
02:36:16,768 --> 02:36:17,201
where the

12560
02:36:17,201 --> 02:36:17,769
um payouts go

12561
02:36:17,769 --> 02:36:18,870
for people when

12562
02:36:18,870 --> 02:36:19,137
they

12563
02:36:19,137 --> 02:36:19,804
exhibit.

12564
02:36:19,804 --> 02:36:21,372
Um, there's also a

12565
02:36:21,372 --> 02:36:21,705
capital fund

12566
02:36:21,705 --> 02:36:22,106
that

12567
02:36:22,106 --> 02:36:22,673
funds things

12568
02:36:22,673 --> 02:36:24,309
like this. So

12569
02:36:24,309 --> 02:36:24,976
um, the operational fund has

12570
02:36:24,976 --> 02:36:26,176
actually been the one hit

12571
02:36:26,176 --> 02:36:26,878
harder than the capital one

12572
02:36:26,878 --> 02:36:27,512
that seemed to

12573
02:36:27,512 --> 02:36:27,812
be more hole

12574
02:36:27,812 --> 02:36:28,112
.

12575
02:36:28,112 --> 02:36:28,546
We've

12576
02:36:28,546 --> 02:36:29,130
kind of

12577
02:36:29,130 --> 02:36:29,180
, of course

12578
02:36:29,180 --> 02:36:29,980
,

12579
02:36:29,980 --> 02:36:30,482
during these times you almost

12580
02:36:30,482 --> 02:36:31,249
want them

12581
02:36:31,249 --> 02:36:32,583
to

12582
02:36:32,583 --> 02:36:33,118
be reversed

12583
02:36:33,118 --> 02:36:33,618
sometimes

12584
02:36:33,618 --> 02:36:33,984
, but it's

12585
02:36:33,984 --> 02:36:34,619
, you guys

12586
02:36:34,619 --> 02:36:35,119
know that's not the way

12587
02:36:35,119 --> 02:36:35,553
it goes

12588
02:36:35,553 --> 02:36:37,255
so

12589
02:36:37,255 --> 02:36:38,656
, uh, we appreciate

12590
02:36:38,656 --> 02:36:39,457
, um, the

12591
02:36:39,457 --> 02:36:39,924
advocacy, but it is really good

12592
02:36:39,924 --> 02:36:40,458
We have

12593
02:36:40,458 --> 02:36:40,825
great partners

12594
02:36:40,825 --> 02:36:41,259
at

12595
02:36:41,259 --> 02:36:41,660
at

12596
02:36:41,660 --> 02:36:42,930
wsda, and

12597
02:36:42,930 --> 02:36:42,626
that's how

12598
02:36:42,626 --> 02:36:42,927
these

12599
02:36:42,927 --> 02:36:44,620
happen

12600
02:36:44,620 --> 02:36:44,429
. Ok

12601
02:36:44,429 --> 02:36:44,663
, let's

12602
02:36:44,663 --> 02:36:44,996
get

12603
02:36:44,996 --> 02:36:45,363
moving on

12604
02:36:45,363 --> 02:36:45,863
to the big

12605
02:36:45,863 --> 02:36:46,264
show

12606
02:36:46,264 --> 02:36:46,931
, which is the

12607
02:36:46,931 --> 02:36:47,198
fair, which is why you're all

12608
02:36:47,198 --> 02:36:48,433
here

12609
02:36:48,433 --> 02:36:48,666
. So

12610
02:36:48,666 --> 02:36:50,666
, um

12611
02:36:50,835 --> 02:36:51,136
let's wing it

12612
02:36:51,136 --> 02:36:52,971
That's

12613
02:36:52,971 --> 02:36:53,271
our theme this year

12614
02:36:53,271 --> 02:36:53,538
. So,

12615
02:36:53,538 --> 02:36:55,140
each

12616
02:36:55,140 --> 02:36:55,874
, uh, each fall

12617
02:36:55,874 --> 02:36:56,508
, uh, I

12618
02:36:56,508 --> 02:36:57,742
don't know what we do

12619
02:36:57,742 --> 02:36:58,310
. We get

12620
02:36:58,310 --> 02:36:59,678
done with the fare

12621
02:36:59,678 --> 02:36:59,845
. We are

12622
02:36:59,845 --> 02:37:00,312
on

12623
02:37:00,312 --> 02:37:00,679
to other

12624
02:37:00,679 --> 02:37:01,646
events

12625
02:37:01,646 --> 02:37:02,470
. We

12626
02:37:02,470 --> 02:37:02,280
get

12627
02:37:02,280 --> 02:37:02,847
in

12628
02:37:02,847 --> 02:37:03,381
OCTOBER we go to

12629
02:37:03,381 --> 02:37:04,950
our conference

12630
02:37:04,950 --> 02:37:05,183
get rejuvenated, and then

12631
02:37:05,183 --> 02:37:05,484
we

12632
02:37:05,484 --> 02:37:07,285
start

12633
02:37:07,285 --> 02:37:07,553
throwing ideas around for

12634
02:37:07,553 --> 02:37:08,854
the

12635
02:37:08,854 --> 02:37:09,421
next year's fair theme and

12636
02:37:09,421 --> 02:37:11,890
it is a little

12637
02:37:11,890 --> 02:37:11,723
bit overwhelming

12638
02:37:11,723 --> 02:37:12,124
because last year we had the

12639
02:37:12,124 --> 02:37:13,910
Cool Cats

12640
02:37:13,910 --> 02:37:13,458
theme and you're

12641
02:37:13,458 --> 02:37:13,992
sitting

12642
02:37:13,992 --> 02:37:14,493
there

12643
02:37:14,493 --> 02:37:15,694
going, this

12644
02:37:15,694 --> 02:37:16,940
, how

12645
02:37:16,940 --> 02:37:16,562
are we

12646
02:37:16,562 --> 02:37:16,861
going to

12647
02:37:16,861 --> 02:37:17,362
, how are we

12648
02:37:17,362 --> 02:37:17,829
going to even

12649
02:37:17,829 --> 02:37:18,163
get close to that

12650
02:37:18,163 --> 02:37:18,997
right

12651
02:37:18,997 --> 02:37:20,199
? And so there's, you feel

12652
02:37:20,199 --> 02:37:20,933
the pressure, right? And we

12653
02:37:20,933 --> 02:37:21,633
have the shades and all that

12654
02:37:21,633 --> 02:37:22,701
and like what in the

12655
02:37:22,701 --> 02:37:22,935
heck are

12656
02:37:22,935 --> 02:37:23,202
we

12657
02:37:23,202 --> 02:37:23,602
going

12658
02:37:23,602 --> 02:37:24,402
to do

12659
02:37:24,402 --> 02:37:24,870
? So

12660
02:37:24,870 --> 02:37:25,370
I

12661
02:37:25,370 --> 02:37:26,271
know

12662
02:37:26,271 --> 02:37:26,505
we um

12663
02:37:26,505 --> 02:37:26,805
we

12664
02:37:26,805 --> 02:37:27,606
did

12665
02:37:27,606 --> 02:37:27,767
have poultry as kind

12666
02:37:27,767 --> 02:37:28,600
of

12667
02:37:28,600 --> 02:37:28,373
the

12668
02:37:28,373 --> 02:37:29,410
last

12669
02:37:29,410 --> 02:37:29,408
major animal

12670
02:37:29,408 --> 02:37:29,675
group

12671
02:37:29,675 --> 02:37:31,142
that

12672
02:37:31,142 --> 02:37:31,843
didn't

12673
02:37:31,843 --> 02:37:32,378
uh maybe hadn't had

12674
02:37:32,378 --> 02:37:32,945
a theme in

12675
02:37:32,945 --> 02:37:33,212
the last 10 years

12676
02:37:33,212 --> 02:37:34,460
. I

12677
02:37:34,460 --> 02:37:34,980
remember back

12678
02:37:34,980 --> 02:37:35,481
to 2015

12679
02:37:35,481 --> 02:37:35,748
is when

12680
02:37:35,748 --> 02:37:36,115
we

12681
02:37:36,115 --> 02:37:36,815
started

12682
02:37:36,815 --> 02:37:37,582
instituting the

12683
02:37:37,582 --> 02:37:37,917

and that

12685
02:37:38,517 --> 02:37:39,840
that

12686
02:37:39,840 --> 02:37:39,451

this, but you're the only one

12691
02:37:42,121 --> 02:37:42,421
around then, but it

12692
02:37:42,421 --> 02:37:43,455
was the

12693
02:37:43,455 --> 02:37:44,790
summer of 60 swine, the best

12694
02:37:44,790 --> 02:37:47,190
days of our lives

12695
02:37:47,459 --> 02:37:47,726

filed it and I

12706
02:37:55,000 --> 02:37:56,335

12707
02:37:56,335 --> 02:37:56,635
fully tend on whatever, but it

12708
02:37:56,635 --> 02:37:56,902

13120
02:42:13,562 --> 02:42:13,863
is on the north end of

13121
02:42:13,863 --> 02:42:14,296

13126
02:42:16,665 --> 02:42:17,199
where the senior center

13127
02:42:17,199 --> 02:42:17,733
groups park

13128
02:42:17,733 --> 02:42:18,601

13129
02:42:18,601 --> 02:42:19,535
livestock sale

13130
02:42:19,535 --> 02:42:19,769
, um, is

13131
02:42:19,769 --> 02:42:20,603
an

13132
02:42:20,603 --> 02:42:21,470
amazing thing. A lot of the

13133
02:42:21,470 --> 02:42:21,737
money

13134
02:42:21,737 --> 02:42:22,338
goes

13135
02:42:22,338 --> 02:42:22,672
back to the kids.

13136
02:42:22,672 --> 02:42:23,773
Most of

13137
02:42:23,773 --> 02:42:24,340
the money goes back to

13138
02:42:24,340 --> 02:42:24,774
the kids on

13139
02:42:24,774 --> 02:42:25,700
that except

13140
02:42:25,700 --> 02:42:26,420
the

13141
02:42:26,420 --> 02:42:27,900
very

13142
02:42:27,900 --> 02:42:28,277
small percentage

13143
02:42:28,277 --> 02:42:28,778
, um, and

13144
02:42:28,778 --> 02:42:29,345
so we do have

13145
02:42:29,345 --> 02:42:29,779
a write up in

13146
02:42:29,779 --> 02:42:30,279
this year's

13147
02:42:30,279 --> 02:42:30,545
fair guide on it

13148
02:42:30,545 --> 02:42:30,979
,

13149
02:42:30,979 --> 02:42:31,581
but there's a

13150
02:42:31,581 --> 02:42:33,581
whole journey

13151
02:42:33,683 --> 02:42:34,149
from, um, you know, starting

13152
02:42:34,149 --> 02:42:35,840
the project

13153
02:42:35,840 --> 02:42:35,651
and through the end

13154
02:42:35,651 --> 02:42:35,918
of the sale

13155
02:42:35,918 --> 02:42:37,286
and

13156
02:42:37,286 --> 02:42:38,870
so I'm not

13157
02:42:38,870 --> 02:42:38,287
gonna try and get into

13158
02:42:38,287 --> 02:42:38,787
that. I

13159
02:42:38,787 --> 02:42:39,689
think the best

13160
02:42:39,689 --> 02:42:40,222
thing that a lot

13161
02:42:40,222 --> 02:42:40,956
of people can

13162
02:42:40,956 --> 02:42:41,790
do

13163
02:42:41,790 --> 02:42:42,125
is

13164
02:42:42,125 --> 02:42:42,792
, um, you

13165
02:42:42,792 --> 02:42:43,590
know, talk to the kids at the

13166
02:42:43,590 --> 02:42:44,193
fair

13167
02:42:44,193 --> 02:42:44,861
because they're really

13168
02:42:44,861 --> 02:42:45,528
interested in talking about

13169
02:42:45,528 --> 02:42:45,828
their projects and so there's a

13170
02:42:45,828 --> 02:42:46,262
lot

13171
02:42:46,262 --> 02:42:47,262
of

13172
02:42:47,262 --> 02:42:48,164
really cool

13173
02:42:48,164 --> 02:42:48,630
, um, stories

13174
02:42:48,630 --> 02:42:49,832
behind

13175
02:42:49,832 --> 02:42:50,733
it and

13176
02:42:50,733 --> 02:42:51,100
I know

13177
02:42:51,100 --> 02:42:51,434
there's

13178
02:42:51,434 --> 02:42:51,636
never

13179
02:42:51,636 --> 02:42:52,335
a

13180
02:42:52,335 --> 02:42:52,669
shortage of the

13181
02:42:52,669 --> 02:42:53,937
need

13182
02:42:53,937 --> 02:42:54,269
for buyers

13183
02:42:54,269 --> 02:42:54,771
to pack

13184
02:42:54,771 --> 02:42:55,938
, pack the

13185
02:42:55,938 --> 02:42:56,271
,

13186
02:42:56,271 --> 02:42:56,840
uh, the

13187
02:42:56,840 --> 02:42:57,607
stands Saturday

13188
02:42:57,607 --> 02:42:57,907
, AUGUST

13189
02:42:57,907 --> 02:42:58,208
8th

13190
02:42:58,208 --> 02:42:59,442
at

13191
02:42:59,442 --> 02:42:59,843
10:00 A.M. Um

13192
02:42:59,843 --> 02:43:00,309
, I

13193
02:43:00,309 --> 02:43:00,743
think

13194
02:43:00,743 --> 02:43:01,211
Francis had

13195
02:43:01,211 --> 02:43:01,678
a tip, but maybe

13196
02:43:01,678 --> 02:43:02,178
it's in

13197
02:43:02,178 --> 02:43:02,778
the guide

13198
02:43:02,778 --> 02:43:03,790
, but it's

13199
02:43:03,790 --> 02:43:03,613
, uh

13200
02:43:03,613 --> 02:43:03,913
be careful if you

13201
02:43:03,913 --> 02:43:04,800
' re

13202
02:43:04,800 --> 02:43:04,380
raising

13203
02:43:04,380 --> 02:43:04,781
your

13204
02:43:04,781 --> 02:43:05,810
hand to

13205
02:43:05,810 --> 02:43:05,348
scratch

13206
02:43:05,348 --> 02:43:05,648
your

13207
02:43:05,648 --> 02:43:06,548
nose

13208
02:43:06,548 --> 02:43:06,883
or your hair when you're done

13209
02:43:06,883 --> 02:43:07,717
because

13210
02:43:07,717 --> 02:43:08,685
you might

13211
02:43:08,685 --> 02:43:08,852
, you might

13212
02:43:08,852 --> 02:43:09,285
be

13213
02:43:09,285 --> 02:43:09,785

13214
02:43:09,785 --> 02:43:10,120
1000 deep into an

13215
02:43:10,120 --> 02:43:11,540
animal

13216
02:43:11,540 --> 02:43:11,321
if you do

13217
02:43:11,321 --> 02:43:12,550
that

13218
02:43:12,550 --> 02:43:13,590
. So

13219
02:43:13,590 --> 02:43:14,157
, um,

13220
02:43:14,157 --> 02:43:14,524

02:43:21,498 --> 02:43:22,632
so

13231
02:43:22,632 --> 02:43:23,566
, um, a portion of the

13232
02:43:23,566 --> 02:43:24,134

other things that

02:43:43,530 --> 02:43:43,386
Senior Center, and then

13265
02:43:43,386 --> 02:43:44,254
I think

13266
02:43:44,254 --> 02:43:45,220
the four organizations you see

13267
02:43:45,220 --> 02:43:45,190
under there are kind of

13268
02:43:45,190 --> 02:43:45,455
under

13269
02:43:45,455 --> 02:43:45,756
the

13270
02:43:45,756 --> 02:43:46,156
senior

13271
02:43:46,156 --> 02:43:46,589
center

13272
02:43:46,589 --> 02:43:47,524
umbrella

13273
02:43:47,524 --> 02:43:48,225
, um,

13274
02:43:48,225 --> 02:43:48,492
but that we're really happy

13275
02:43:48,492 --> 02:43:49,660
to

13276
02:43:49,660 --> 02:43:50,460
support that, um

13277
02:43:50,460 --> 02:43:51,280
. As well

13278
02:43:51,280 --> 02:43:51,628
because I know the

13279
02:43:51,628 --> 02:43:51,788
seniors are

13280
02:43:51,788 --> 02:43:52,496
,

13281
02:43:52,496 --> 02:43:53,997
they're working really hard to

13282
02:43:53,997 --> 02:43:54,364
raise money. Um

13283
02:43:54,364 --> 02:43:54,731
, the

13284
02:43:54,731 --> 02:43:55,640
, and then

13285
02:43:55,640 --> 02:43:56,166
we have

13286
02:43:56,166 --> 02:43:56,700
help with the garbage.

13287
02:43:56,700 --> 02:43:57,401
We use the Mount for high

13288
02:43:57,401 --> 02:43:58,402
school wrestling team

13289
02:43:58,402 --> 02:43:59,680
, so that

13290
02:43:59,680 --> 02:44:00,437
all goes back into

13291
02:44:00,437 --> 02:44:01,405
their

13292
02:44:01,405 --> 02:44:02,500
coffers, and they do, they do

13293
02:44:02,500 --> 02:44:03,340
good work for us

13294
02:44:03,340 --> 02:44:03,774
. Um

13295
02:44:03,774 --> 02:44:05,542
, Ferry is

13296
02:44:05,542 --> 02:44:05,909

13459
02:45:44,750 --> 02:45:44,509
1000. It's

13460
02:45:44,509 --> 02:45:44,943
, it's like

13461
02:45:44,943 --> 02:45:45,343
huge

13462
02:45:45,343 --> 02:45:45,644
, um,

13463
02:45:45,644 --> 02:45:47,145
like

13464
02:45:47,145 --> 02:45:47,578
, so yeah

13465
02:45:47,578 --> 02:45:48,346
, 6

13466
02:45:48,346 --> 02:45:48,580
to 14 months

13467
02:45:48,580 --> 02:45:48,981
.

13468
02:45:48,981 --> 02:45:49,381
If you, if

13469
02:45:49,381 --> 02:45:49,781
you guys

13470
02:45:49,781 --> 02:45:50,147
know

13471
02:45:50,147 --> 02:45:50,815
anybody

13472
02:45:50,815 --> 02:45:51,283
who's a crawler

13473
02:45:51,283 --> 02:45:51,883
, they

13474
02:45:51,883 --> 02:45:52,451
can't walk, 6 to

13475
02:45:52,451 --> 02:45:52,818
14 months

13476
02:45:52,818 --> 02:45:53,551
, um,

13477
02:45:53,551 --> 02:45:54,119
get him out on the stage. It

13478
02:45:54,119 --> 02:45:54,386
doesn't cost to

13479
02:45:54,386 --> 02:45:55,353
enter

13480
02:45:55,353 --> 02:45:56,540
. Parents

13481
02:45:56,540 --> 02:45:56,488
got to pay it again, that's it.

13482
02:45:56,488 --> 02:45:57,455
So I mean, I

13483
02:45:57,455 --> 02:45:57,889
, I

13484
02:45:57,889 --> 02:45:58,156
, I've long

13485
02:45:58,156 --> 02:45:58,957
said

13486
02:45:58,957 --> 02:46:00,159
that prizes they get, like

13487
02:46:00,159 --> 02:46:00,659
we've had good

13488
02:46:00,659 --> 02:46:01,326
participation 20

13489
02:46:01,326 --> 02:46:01,627
or so, babies. I guess there's

13490
02:46:01,627 --> 02:46:02,327
only

13491
02:46:02,327 --> 02:46:02,727
so many

13492
02:46:02,727 --> 02:46:03,610
in

13493
02:46:03,610 --> 02:46:03,729
that

13494
02:46:03,729 --> 02:46:04,960
demographic, but I mean

13495
02:46:04,960 --> 02:46:04,930
, the

13496
02:46:04,930 --> 02:46:05,364
prizes alone and that

13497
02:46:05,364 --> 02:46:06,980
could

13498
02:46:06,980 --> 02:46:07,299
change somebody

13499
02:46:07,299 --> 02:46:07,966
, but it's

13500
02:46:07,966 --> 02:46:08,500
, it's

13501
02:46:08,500 --> 02:46:08,867
hilarious cause the

13502
02:46:08,867 --> 02:46:09,468
babies

13503
02:46:09,468 --> 02:46:09,935
don't always go in

13504
02:46:09,935 --> 02:46:10,736
linear

13505
02:46:10,736 --> 02:46:11,103
paths

13506
02:46:11,103 --> 02:46:11,536
So, it's

13507
02:46:11,536 --> 02:46:11,837
kind of a fun

13508
02:46:11,837 --> 02:46:12,171
thing.

13509
02:46:12,171 --> 02:46:12,438
So. What

13510
02:46:12,438 --> 02:46:13,605
of a

13511
02:46:13,605 --> 02:46:14,239
county employees

13512
02:46:14,239 --> 02:46:14,573
,

13513
02:46:14,573 --> 02:46:15,174
child

13514
02:46:15,174 --> 02:46:15,607
one, last year

13515
02:46:15,607 --> 02:46:16,175
, the year

13516
02:46:16,175 --> 02:46:16,742
before

13517
02:46:16,742 --> 02:46:17,750
. Oh, it just

13518
02:46:17,750 --> 02:46:17,476
totally

13519
02:46:17,476 --> 02:46:17,876
rocked it

13520
02:46:17,876 --> 02:46:18,277
. This kid was

13521
02:46:18,277 --> 02:46:18,811
a stud

13522
02:46:18,811 --> 02:46:19,111
.

13523
02:46:19,111 --> 02:46:19,345
It was

13524
02:46:19,345 --> 02:46:20,145
, it

13525
02:46:20,145 --> 02:46:20,613
was great. Well

13526
02:46:20,613 --> 02:46:21,413
, and

13527
02:46:21,413 --> 02:46:21,913
I think the good part of that

13528
02:46:21,913 --> 02:46:22,681
is, is, you know

13529
02:46:22,681 --> 02:46:23,147
Because if you

13530
02:46:23,147 --> 02:46:24,883
get your

13531
02:46:24,883 --> 02:46:25,717
baby training, you're

13532
02:46:25,717 --> 02:46:26,652
gonna be able to kick back

13533
02:46:26,652 --> 02:46:27,352
and

13534
02:46:27,352 --> 02:46:27,752
you're going to be able to kick

13535
02:46:27,752 --> 02:46:28,200
back in a

13536
02:46:28,200 --> 02:46:30,200
nice

13537
02:46:30,188 --> 02:46:30,523
recliner. For

13538
02:46:30,523 --> 02:46:31,657
months

13539
02:46:31,657 --> 02:46:31,870
. Tri your baby down

13540
02:46:31,870 --> 02:46:32,224
.

13541
02:46:32,224 --> 02:46:32,658
Yeah baby back

13542
02:46:32,658 --> 02:46:33,893
down. So

13543
02:46:33,893 --> 02:46:35,628
, yeah

13544
02:46:35,628 --> 02:46:36,395
.

13545
02:46:36,395 --> 02:46:37,280
Are they able to like throw a

13546
02:46:37,280 --> 02:46:37,296
little food in front of them

13547
02:46:37,296 --> 02:46:38,130
just

13548
02:46:38,130 --> 02:46:38,464
to

13549
02:46:38,464 --> 02:46:40,464
keep

13550
02:46:40,632 --> 02:46:41,534
moving or so the

13551
02:46:41,534 --> 02:46:43,102
fair has, the fair has a lot

13552
02:46:43,102 --> 02:46:43,836
of

13553
02:46:43,836 --> 02:46:44,637
programs outside of the fair as

13554
02:46:44,637 --> 02:46:45,471
well. I mean, the, it's the

13555
02:46:45,471 --> 02:46:46,405
whole ecosystem that feeds a

13556
02:46:46,405 --> 02:46:47,340
fair, but we have worked with

13557
02:46:47,340 --> 02:46:47,974
local

13558
02:46:47,974 --> 02:46:48,241
libraries, the Read to

13559
02:46:48,241 --> 02:46:49,975
Win

13560
02:46:49,975 --> 02:46:50,342
. So basically

13561
02:46:50,342 --> 02:46:51,144
they do a

13562
02:46:51,144 --> 02:46:51,611
certain amount of reading

13563
02:46:51,611 --> 02:46:52,178
. The

13564
02:46:52,178 --> 02:46:52,645
library has the

13565
02:46:52,645 --> 02:46:53,111
fare tickets

13566
02:46:53,111 --> 02:46:53,545
and then it's

13567
02:46:53,545 --> 02:46:53,846
the incentive

13568
02:46:53,846 --> 02:46:54,614
that

13569
02:46:54,614 --> 02:46:55,470
they get

13570
02:46:55,470 --> 02:46:55,448
a ribbon

13571
02:46:55,448 --> 02:46:56,950
and a

13572
02:46:56,950 --> 02:46:57,883
fare ticket

13573
02:46:57,883 --> 02:46:58,284
, um, to come

13574
02:46:58,284 --> 02:46:58,951
to the

13575
02:46:58,951 --> 02:46:59,452
fair

13576
02:46:59,452 --> 02:46:59,952
. I will

13577
02:46:59,952 --> 02:47:00,486
add as

13578
02:47:00,486 --> 02:47:02,210
well that

13579
02:47:02,210 --> 02:47:02,488
um we

13580
02:47:02,488 --> 02:47:03,222
, we are

13581
02:47:03,222 --> 02:47:03,756
open for more. We

13582
02:47:03,756 --> 02:47:04,190
would love

13583
02:47:04,190 --> 02:47:04,790
that

13584
02:47:04,790 --> 02:47:05,158
fare

13585
02:47:05,158 --> 02:47:05,824
tickets

13586
02:47:05,824 --> 02:47:06,225
are used more as

13587
02:47:06,225 --> 02:47:06,892
an incentive

13588
02:47:06,892 --> 02:47:07,260
in businesses around Skagit

13589
02:47:07,260 --> 02:47:07,660
County. So

13590
02:47:07,660 --> 02:47:07,994
we

13591
02:47:07,994 --> 02:47:08,194
have

13592
02:47:08,194 --> 02:47:08,795
group

13593
02:47:08,795 --> 02:47:09,628
tickets promoted, but

13594
02:47:09,628 --> 02:47:09,829
I've

13595
02:47:09,829 --> 02:47:10,228
long

13596
02:47:10,228 --> 02:47:10,629
wanted to

13597
02:47:10,629 --> 02:47:11,300
expand

13598
02:47:11,300 --> 02:47:11,964
that of

13599
02:47:11,964 --> 02:47:12,432
, hey

13600
02:47:12,432 --> 02:47:12,965
,

13601
02:47:12,965 --> 02:47:14,267
um, the auto

13602
02:47:14,267 --> 02:47:15,201
repair shop, um,

13603
02:47:15,201 --> 02:47:15,367
you know, you come to us

13604
02:47:15,367 --> 02:47:15,802
or

13605
02:47:15,802 --> 02:47:16,569
whatever, you're

13606
02:47:16,569 --> 02:47:16,836
going to get a

13607
02:47:16,836 --> 02:47:17,669
free

13608
02:47:17,669 --> 02:47:17,937
fare ticket

13609
02:47:17,937 --> 02:47:18,705
. So I

13610
02:47:18,705 --> 02:47:19,339
would

13611
02:47:19,339 --> 02:47:19,638
encourage

13612
02:47:19,638 --> 02:47:20,206
any

13613
02:47:20,206 --> 02:47:20,773
businesses

13614
02:47:20,773 --> 02:47:21,173
, um,

13615
02:47:21,173 --> 02:47:21,774
instead of

13616
02:47:21,774 --> 02:47:22,410
Yale given

13617
02:47:22,410 --> 02:47:22,442
you could

13618
02:47:22,442 --> 02:47:23,676
give a

13619
02:47:23,676 --> 02:47:24,430
$10 off

13620
02:47:24,430 --> 02:47:24,410
or

13621
02:47:24,410 --> 02:47:24,744
maybe

13622
02:47:24,744 --> 02:47:25,178
consider

13623
02:47:25,178 --> 02:47:25,478
buying a group

13624
02:47:25,478 --> 02:47:26,120
of fare

13625
02:47:26,120 --> 02:47:26,546
tickets which

13626
02:47:26,546 --> 02:47:27,213
are discounted

13627
02:47:27,213 --> 02:47:27,747
and kind of using that

13628
02:47:27,747 --> 02:47:28,380
as an

13629
02:47:28,380 --> 02:47:28,815
incentive

13630
02:47:28,815 --> 02:47:29,182
. So we are

13631
02:47:29,182 --> 02:47:29,515
always

13632
02:47:29,515 --> 02:47:29,849
looking

13633
02:47:29,849 --> 02:47:31,840
for

13634
02:47:31,840 --> 02:47:31,651
those partnerships

13635
02:47:31,651 --> 02:47:32,385
and stuff that

13636
02:47:32,385 --> 02:47:33,190
we

13637
02:47:33,190 --> 02:47:33,453
can, we

13638
02:47:33,453 --> 02:47:34,387
can

13639
02:47:34,387 --> 02:47:34,788
work on, especially

13640
02:47:34,788 --> 02:47:35,722
when we're

13641
02:47:35,722 --> 02:47:36,456
not in JUNE and JULY, we can

13642
02:47:36,456 --> 02:47:37,230
work on those in the offseason.

13643
02:47:37,230 --> 02:47:37,290
So if anybody has any

13644
02:47:37,290 --> 02:47:37,891
ideas

13645
02:47:37,891 --> 02:47:38,925

13649
02:47:42,662 --> 02:47:43,429
is

13650
02:47:43,429 --> 02:47:43,964
another really

13651
02:47:43,964 --> 02:47:44,297
cool thing, um

13652
02:47:44,297 --> 02:47:45,699

02:47:59,746 --> 02:47:59,980
sometimes

13678
02:47:59,980 --> 02:48:00,681
take

13679
02:48:00,681 --> 02:48:00,914
self-control to do so

13680
02:48:00,914 --> 02:48:01,248

13688
02:48:05,152 --> 02:48:05,336

13930
02:50:32,401 --> 02:50:32,901

new thing

13942
02:50:39,410 --> 02:50:39,675

13957
02:50:45,714 --> 02:50:46,480
,

13958
02:50:46,480 --> 02:50:46,715

13962
02:50:48,517 --> 02:50:48,984
um we

13963
02:50:48,984 --> 02:50:49,618

13968
02:50:52,210 --> 02:50:52,622
the

13969
02:50:52,622 --> 02:50:53,880
Children's

13970
02:50:53,880 --> 02:50:53,755

13975
02:50:57,626 --> 02:50:58,327

13978
02:50:59,395 --> 02:51:00,290
could put

13979
02:51:00,290 --> 02:51:00,563
together. So it's again

13980
02:51:00,563 --> 02:51:01,196
, like

13981
02:51:01,196 --> 02:51:01,530

14632
02:58:07,562 --> 02:58:08,950
has empowered me with the

14633
02:58:08,950 --> 02:58:09,297
skills to lead for

14634
02:58:09,297 --> 02:58:09,864
a lifetime

14635
02:58:09,864 --> 02:58:10,531
.

14636
02:58:10,531 --> 02:58:11,532
After having chickens

14637
02:58:11,532 --> 02:58:11,694
for

14638
02:58:11,694 --> 02:58:12,133
a

14639
02:58:12,133 --> 02:58:12,533
while, my mom

14640
02:58:12,533 --> 02:58:13,600
and I decided

14641
02:58:13,600 --> 02:58:14,102
to

14642
02:58:14,102 --> 02:58:15,870
try 4h

14643
02:58:15,870 --> 02:58:16,371
. Do

14644
02:58:16,371 --> 02:58:17,380
you trusted adult

14645
02:58:17,380 --> 02:58:18,306
leaders, I was able to

14646
02:58:18,306 --> 02:58:19,239
build

14647
02:58:19,239 --> 02:58:19,674
positive relationships with

14648
02:58:19,674 --> 02:58:20,575
other youth

14649
02:58:20,575 --> 02:58:21,900
and

14650
02:58:21,900 --> 02:58:21,810
create memories

14651
02:58:21,810 --> 02:58:25,146
at events such as the fair

14652
02:58:25,146 --> 02:58:25,814
. I

14653
02:58:25,814 --> 02:58:26,114
am glad that I

14654
02:58:26,114 --> 02:58:27,348
was one

14655
02:58:27,348 --> 02:58:27,649
of

14656
02:58:27,649 --> 02:58:27,881
the

14657
02:58:27,881 --> 02:58:28,516
6

14658
02:58:28,516 --> 02:58:29,984
million youth

14659
02:58:29,984 --> 02:58:30,952
that forage has

14660
02:58:30,952 --> 02:58:33,352
reached throughout our country

14661
02:58:36,424 --> 02:58:37,910
.

14662
02:58:37,910 --> 02:58:38,759
4h is important to

14663
02:58:38,759 --> 02:58:39,661
our

14664
02:58:39,661 --> 02:58:40,280
communities because of the

14665
02:58:40,280 --> 02:58:40,895
large

14666
02:58:40,895 --> 02:58:41,196
impact

14667
02:58:41,196 --> 02:58:41,496
they

14668
02:58:41,496 --> 02:58:41,829
edit

14669
02:58:41,829 --> 02:58:42,163
has

14670
02:58:42,163 --> 02:58:43,498
on

14671
02:58:43,498 --> 02:58:43,832
today's youth

14672
02:58:43,832 --> 02:58:44,199
. I've

14673
02:58:44,199 --> 02:58:45,834
seen

14674
02:58:45,834 --> 02:58:46,200
everyday

14675
02:58:46,200 --> 02:58:47,100
kids

14676
02:58:47,100 --> 02:58:47,936
grow

14677
02:58:47,936 --> 02:58:48,737
into

14678
02:58:48,737 --> 02:58:49,137
passionate individuals who are

14679
02:58:49,137 --> 02:58:50,138
hungry to

14680
02:58:50,138 --> 02:58:50,505
learn and

14681
02:58:50,505 --> 02:58:50,972
ready to

14682
02:58:50,972 --> 02:58:51,373
take on

14683
02:58:51,373 --> 02:58:53,208
the world

14684
02:58:53,208 --> 02:58:53,575
. 4h

14685
02:58:53,575 --> 02:58:54,810
empowers

14686
02:58:54,810 --> 02:58:55,210
kids to make the

14687
02:58:55,210 --> 02:58:55,777
best better,

14688
02:58:55,777 --> 02:58:56,745
pushing them to

14689
02:58:56,745 --> 02:58:57,445
always try

14690
02:58:57,445 --> 02:58:58,880
harder and to never

14691
02:58:58,880 --> 02:58:59,281
give up

14692
02:58:59,281 --> 02:58:59,881
.

14693
02:58:59,881 --> 02:59:00,215
Fortunes are also

14694
02:59:00,215 --> 02:59:01,160
3 times

14695
02:59:01,160 --> 02:59:01,483
more

14696
02:59:01,483 --> 02:59:02,500

14697
02:59:02,500 --> 02:59:02,283
participate

14698
02:59:02,283 --> 02:59:04,283
in

14699
02:59:04,686 --> 02:59:05,587
community involvement. That

14700
02:59:05,587 --> 02:59:05,988
could mean

14701
02:59:05,988 --> 02:59:06,421
picking

14702
02:59:06,421 --> 02:59:06,588
up trash

14703
02:59:06,588 --> 02:59:06,955

, or

14707
02:59:08,991 --> 02:59:09,724
even having

14708
02:59:09,724 --> 02:59:10,926
a fundraiser for a

14709
02:59:10,926 --> 02:59:11,830
local club

14710
02:59:11,830 --> 02:59:11,393

14711
02:59:11,393 --> 02:59:11,727
Forage

14712
02:59:11,727 --> 02:59:12,394
helps

14713
02:59:12,394 --> 02:59:12,928
us

14714
02:59:12,928 --> 02:59:13,328

14716
02:59:13,962 --> 02:59:15,397
our communities

14717
02:59:15,397 --> 02:59:15,898
. Some

14718
02:59:15,898 --> 02:59:16,798
friendships

14719
02:59:16,798 --> 02:59:17,299
and connections

14720
02:59:17,299 --> 02:59:17,966

02:59:17,966 --> 02:59:19,234
4h

14722
02:59:19,234 --> 02:59:19,667

14728
02:59:21,970 --> 02:59:22,538

my animal

14730
02:59:23,672 --> 02:59:23,905

14731
02:59:23,905 --> 02:59:24,273
of

14733
02:59:24,973 --> 02:59:25,941
connections were made

14734
02:59:25,941 --> 02:59:27,209
at

14735
02:59:27,209 --> 02:59:28,177
forge-related events. For

14736
02:59:28,177 --> 02:59:28,877
example

14737
02:59:28,877 --> 02:59:29,311
, when I was a member of

02:59:29,311 --> 02:59:30,512

14741
02:59:31,546 --> 02:59:32,800
was

14742
02:59:32,800 --> 02:59:32,314
able to go to

14743
02:59:32,314 --> 02:59:32,680

14746
02:59:33,782 --> 02:59:35,151
the Country

14747
02:59:35,151 --> 02:59:35,584

14749
02:59:36,151 --> 02:59:36,619
. At these

14750
02:59:36,619 --> 02:59:36,919

14751
02:59:36,919 --> 02:59:37,620
, I

14752
02:59:37,620 --> 02:59:37,953
explained to people

14753
02:59:37,953 --> 02:59:39,210

14754
02:59:39,210 --> 02:59:39,388

02:59:41,900 --> 02:59:41,457

joining

14761
02:59:42,892 --> 02:59:43,259
. Although other events

14762
02:59:43,259 --> 02:59:44,260
are fun

14763
02:59:44,260 --> 02:59:44,393
, almost

14764
02:59:44,393 --> 02:59:44,593

02:59:52,468 --> 02:59:53,769

14786
02:59:59,342 --> 02:59:59,875

03:00:22,598 --> 03:00:22,865
Through 4h, we

14803
03:00:22,865 --> 03:00:23,166
have

14804
03:00:23,166 --> 03:00:24,300
learned

14805
03:00:24,300 --> 03:00:24,767
how

14806
03:00:24,767 --> 03:00:25,134
to speak

14807
03:00:25,134 --> 03:00:25,368

14814
03:00:30,306 --> 03:00:31,274
but now they can carry

14815
03:00:31,274 --> 03:00:31,842

14816
03:00:31,842 --> 03:00:32,675

a large

14825
03:00:39,490 --> 03:00:40,350
impact on my

14826
03:00:40,350 --> 03:00:40,784

14827
03:00:40,784 --> 03:00:41,830

14857
03:01:12,516 --> 03:01:12,849

few years

14863
03:01:15,840 --> 03:01:16,620

14869
03:01:21,658 --> 03:01:22,260
just gladly jumped into that

14870
03:01:22,260 --> 03:01:22,426
position

14871
03:01:22,426 --> 03:01:23,660

for all of

14880
03:01:28,499 --> 03:01:28,865
the kids that I

14881
03:01:28,865 --> 03:01:29,165
lead

14882
03:01:29,165 --> 03:01:29,433
to succeed

14883
03:01:29,433 --> 03:01:30,467

the project

14885
03:01:31,235 --> 03:01:32,302
. One

14886
03:01:32,302 --> 03:01:32,569
of

14887
03:01:32,569 --> 03:01:32,936
the

14888
03:01:32,936 --> 03:01:33,237
joys

14889
03:01:33,237 --> 03:01:34,371
of

14890
03:01:34,371 --> 03:01:34,738
being a

14891
03:01:34,738 --> 03:01:35,500
leader has

14892
03:01:35,500 --> 03:01:35,572
been

14893
03:01:35,572 --> 03:01:36,673
watching kids who

14894
03:01:36,673 --> 03:01:37,408
are

14895
03:01:37,408 --> 03:01:38,175
extremely

14896
03:01:38,175 --> 03:01:39,509
shy to the point where they

14897
03:01:39,509 --> 03:01:39,743
don't even want to talk

14898
03:01:39,743 --> 03:01:40,310
to

14899
03:01:40,310 --> 03:01:41,111
anyone outside

14900
03:01:41,111 --> 03:01:41,545
of

14901
03:01:41,545 --> 03:01:42,646
their family

14902
03:01:42,646 --> 03:01:43,581
actually be able to not

14903
03:01:43,581 --> 03:01:44,515
only

14904
03:01:44,515 --> 03:01:44,679
gain confidence to speak to me

14905
03:01:44,679 --> 03:01:45,490
,

14906
03:01:45,490 --> 03:01:45,882
but to speak

14907
03:01:45,882 --> 03:01:46,250
to

14908
03:01:46,250 --> 03:01:48,250
the public

14909
03:01:48,519 --> 03:01:48,919

14910
03:01:48,919 --> 03:01:49,253
love

14911
03:01:49,253 --> 03:01:50,187
watching

14912
03:01:50,187 --> 03:01:50,454
kids do

14913
03:01:50,454 --> 03:01:52,454
their

14914
03:01:53,157 --> 03:01:53,457
showmanship competitions where

14915
03:01:53,457 --> 03:01:53,824
they

14916
03:01:53,824 --> 03:01:54,258
can talk

14917
03:01:54,258 --> 03:01:55,250
and interact

14918
03:01:55,250 --> 03:01:55,459
with

14919
03:01:55,459 --> 03:01:56,930
the

14920
03:01:56,930 --> 03:01:56,794
judge and share all of

14921
03:01:56,794 --> 03:01:57,460
the

14922
03:01:57,460 --> 03:01:57,894
knowledge that they

14923
03:01:57,894 --> 03:01:59,894
have gained

14924
03:02:00,331 --> 03:02:01,399
Some

14925
03:02:01,399 --> 03:02:01,632
of

14926
03:02:01,632 --> 03:02:02,990
the

14927
03:02:02,990 --> 03:02:02,533
relationships

14928
03:02:02,533 --> 03:02:02,800
that

14929
03:02:02,800 --> 03:02:04,101
I've

14930
03:02:04,101 --> 03:02:04,268
, uh, developed with

14931
03:02:04,268 --> 03:02:04,902
these

14932
03:02:04,902 --> 03:02:05,269
members and their

14933
03:02:05,269 --> 03:02:06,237
families

14934
03:02:06,237 --> 03:02:06,837
are

14935
03:02:06,837 --> 03:02:07,203
lasting. And I look

14936
03:02:07,203 --> 03:02:08,205
forward to

14937
03:02:08,205 --> 03:02:08,505
many

14938
03:02:08,505 --> 03:02:08,906
years

14939
03:02:08,906 --> 03:02:09,339
to

14940
03:02:09,339 --> 03:02:10,575

14941
03:02:10,575 --> 03:02:11,509

14942
03:02:11,509 --> 03:02:12,643
fair-going memories

14943
03:02:12,643 --> 03:02:12,977
. At the

14944
03:02:12,977 --> 03:02:13,844
fair

14945
03:02:13,844 --> 03:02:15,120
, the youth

14946
03:02:15,120 --> 03:02:15,680
tend

14947
03:02:15,680 --> 03:02:16,130
to bond

14948
03:02:16,130 --> 03:02:16,480
very

14949
03:02:16,480 --> 03:02:17,348
closely and have

14950
03:02:17,348 --> 03:02:17,982
a feeling

14951
03:02:17,982 --> 03:02:18,383
of

14952
03:02:18,383 --> 03:02:18,850
belonging

14953
03:02:18,850 --> 03:02:20,418
and family

14954
03:02:20,418 --> 03:02:20,752

14955
03:02:20,752 --> 03:02:21,719

is

14960
03:02:22,953 --> 03:02:24,121
that

14961
03:02:24,121 --> 03:02:24,455
it

14962
03:02:24,455 --> 03:02:24,721
takes

14963
03:02:24,721 --> 03:02:25,230
kids

14964
03:02:25,230 --> 03:02:26,290

diverse

14966
03:02:26,858 --> 03:02:27,425
groups, whether it

14967
03:02:27,425 --> 03:02:28,693
be urban

14968
03:02:28,693 --> 03:02:29,260
or

14969
03:02:29,260 --> 03:02:29,460
rural, and they

14970
03:02:29,460 --> 03:02:29,893
can work

14971
03:02:29,893 --> 03:02:30,995
together on

14972
03:02:30,995 --> 03:02:31,229
the same

14973
03:02:31,229 --> 03:02:31,629
project

14974
03:02:31,629 --> 03:02:32,263
and learn

14975
03:02:32,263 --> 03:02:34,263
from each other

14976
03:02:34,499 --> 03:02:35,990
.

03:02:35,990 --> 03:02:35,433
There's always

14978
03:02:35,433 --> 03:02:35,867
room

14979
03:02:35,867 --> 03:02:36,734

14985
03:02:40,238 --> 03:02:40,705
always encouraged to push a

14986
03:02:40,705 --> 03:02:40,939
little

14987
03:02:40,939 --> 03:02:41,639
bit

14988
03:02:41,639 --> 03:02:43,639
harder to learn

14989
03:02:44,141 --> 03:02:44,776
. I

14990
03:02:44,776 --> 03:02:45,760

the public

15032
03:03:12,650 --> 03:03:12,938

15033
03:03:12,938 --> 03:03:13,872
their

15034
03:03:13,872 --> 03:03:14,339
projects that

15035
03:03:14,339 --> 03:03:15,206
they've

15036
03:03:15,206 --> 03:03:16,740
worked throughout their whole

15037
03:03:16,740 --> 03:03:16,408
year

15038
03:03:16,408 --> 03:03:17,275

15039
03:03:17,275 --> 03:03:18,744
they

15040
03:03:18,744 --> 03:03:19,770
will gladly

15041
03:03:19,770 --> 03:03:19,611
show

15042
03:03:19,611 --> 03:03:20,479
their

15043
03:03:20,479 --> 03:03:20,812
animal to

15044
03:03:20,812 --> 03:03:21,213
folks at

15045

educational

15049
03:03:23,181 --> 03:03:23,749
posters that

15050
03:03:23,749 --> 03:03:24,950
they've

15051
03:03:24,950 --> 03:03:25,450
made just

15052
03:03:25,450 --> 03:03:25,817
to teach

15053
03:03:25,817 --> 03:03:26,618

15054
03:03:26,618 --> 03:03:27,185
who've maybe

15055
03:03:27,185 --> 03:03:27,619
never been

15056
03:03:27,619 --> 03:03:27,986
around animals

15057
03:03:27,986 --> 03:03:28,620

15058
03:03:28,620 --> 03:03:29,922

, Louise.

15092
03:03:57,416 --> 03:03:58,617
Um

15093
03:03:58,617 --> 03:03:59,185
, so just

15094
03:03:59,185 --> 03:03:59,518
, uh, a few comments

15095
03:03:59,518 --> 03:03:59,752
I had

15096
03:03:59,752 --> 03:04:00,886
. Um

15097
03:04:00,886 --> 03:04:01,320
, I

15098
03:04:01,320 --> 03:04:01,553
won upfront

15099
03:04:01,553 --> 03:04:01,821
, I

15100
03:04:01,821 --> 03:04:02,121
did

15101
03:04:02,121 --> 03:04:03,220
MISS

15102
03:04:03,220 --> 03:04:04,522
Out on

15103
03:04:04,522 --> 03:04:04,923
, um, introducing

15104
03:04:04,923 --> 03:04:05,491
Ashley Sis

15105
03:04:05,491 --> 03:04:05,723
, who's our

15106
03:04:05,723 --> 03:04:06,124
new

15107
03:04:06,124 --> 03:04:06,792
4h

15108
03:04:06,792 --> 03:04:08,940
program coordinator

15109
03:04:08,940 --> 03:04:08,561
. So

15110
03:04:08,561 --> 03:04:09,327
she is

15111
03:04:09,327 --> 03:04:10,161
on board for her first

15112
03:04:10,161 --> 03:04:10,729
fare, so

15113
03:04:10,729 --> 03:04:12,464
it will

15114
03:04:12,464 --> 03:04:13,399
, uh, undoubtedly be a

15115
03:04:13,399 --> 03:04:14,634
very

15116
03:04:14,634 --> 03:04:15,101
immersive

15117
03:04:15,101 --> 03:04:15,534
experience

15118
03:04:15,534 --> 03:04:16,102
. It's

15119
03:04:16,102 --> 03:04:16,469
a jump

15120
03:04:16,469 --> 03:04:16,969
in for the

15121
03:04:16,969 --> 03:04:17,770
, the

15122
03:04:17,770 --> 03:04:18,700
fair

15123
03:04:18,700 --> 03:04:18,304
bath

15124
03:04:18,304 --> 03:04:19,380
. Um

15125
03:04:19,380 --> 03:04:19,305
, and then I

15126
03:04:19,305 --> 03:04:19,638
, I just

15127
03:04:19,638 --> 03:04:20,390
wanted

15128
03:04:20,390 --> 03:04:20,373
to highlight

15129
03:04:20,373 --> 03:04:20,706
a few

15130
03:04:20,706 --> 03:04:21,400
other

15131
03:04:21,400 --> 03:04:22,408
things

15132
03:04:22,408 --> 03:04:22,909
, um, you

15133
03:04:22,909 --> 03:04:23,876
know

15134
03:04:23,876 --> 03:04:24,610
, the

15135
03:04:24,610 --> 03:04:25,144
connectivity between the fair

15136
03:04:25,144 --> 03:04:25,845
and

15137
03:04:25,845 --> 03:04:26,278
4h and and

15138
03:04:26,278 --> 03:04:26,812
how

15139
03:04:26,812 --> 03:04:27,313
cohesive

15140
03:04:27,313 --> 03:04:28,810
they are. So

15141
03:04:28,810 --> 03:04:28,447
the, you know

15142
03:04:28,447 --> 03:04:29,182
, the

15143
03:04:29,182 --> 03:04:29,515
4h program is really paramount

15144
03:04:29,515 --> 03:04:30,583
to the

15145
03:04:30,583 --> 03:04:32,352
year around

15146
03:04:32,352 --> 03:04:33,520
, um, the

15147
03:04:33,520 --> 03:04:33,552
mentorship, the learning, so a

15148
03:04:33,552 --> 03:04:33,886
lot of that

15149
03:04:33,886 --> 03:04:34,186
stuff happens if

15150
03:04:34,186 --> 03:04:35,554
they

15151
03:04:35,554 --> 03:04:36,355
don't have

15152
03:04:36,355 --> 03:04:36,589
this 12-year,

15153
03:04:36,589 --> 03:04:37,230
12

15154
03:04:37,230 --> 03:04:37,256
month support

15155
03:04:37,256 --> 03:04:37,857
, they can't

15156
03:04:37,857 --> 03:04:38,910
show up to fair and

15157
03:04:38,910 --> 03:04:38,524
do

15158
03:04:38,524 --> 03:04:39,425
what

15159
03:04:39,425 --> 03:04:39,725
they do

15160
03:04:39,725 --> 03:04:40,226
. Also

15161
03:04:40,226 --> 03:04:40,660
, without

15162
03:04:40,660 --> 03:04:41,761
the fare

15163
03:04:41,761 --> 03:04:42,161
you don't

15164
03:04:42,161 --> 03:04:42,962
have what I

15165
03:04:42,962 --> 03:04:44,130
, I always

15166
03:04:44,130 --> 03:04:44,360
playfully referred to

15167
03:04:44,360 --> 03:04:44,864
as the

15168
03:04:44,864 --> 03:04:45,298
Super Bowl, right

15169
03:04:45,298 --> 03:04:45,798
? So

15170
03:04:45,798 --> 03:04:46,199
without

15171
03:04:46,199 --> 03:04:46,466
that fare

15172
03:04:46,466 --> 03:04:46,933
there

15173
03:04:46,933 --> 03:04:47,366
, the

15174
03:04:47,366 --> 03:04:47,934
bright

15175
03:04:47,934 --> 03:04:48,368
lights and all

15176
03:04:48,368 --> 03:04:49,200
the

15177
03:04:49,200 --> 03:04:49,302
infrastructure that comes with

15178
03:04:49,302 --> 03:04:49,736
the

15179
03:04:49,736 --> 03:04:50,103
fair and even

15180
03:04:50,103 --> 03:04:50,637
the fun

15181
03:04:50,637 --> 03:04:51,671
that

15182
03:04:51,671 --> 03:04:52,400
happens outside the fair, right

15183
03:04:52,400 --> 03:04:52,639
? The

15184
03:04:52,639 --> 03:04:53,940
kids they think, oh

15185
03:04:53,940 --> 03:04:54,340
, it's

15186
03:04:54,340 --> 03:04:54,774
8 P.M. I

15187
03:04:54,774 --> 03:04:55,108
got to go on

15188
03:04:55,108 --> 03:04:55,542
the

15189
03:04:55,542 --> 03:04:55,975
carnival rides

15190
03:04:55,975 --> 03:04:56,275
. That's what

15191
03:04:56,275 --> 03:04:56,810
the

15192
03:04:56,810 --> 03:04:57,430
memories are made

15193
03:04:57,430 --> 03:04:57,811
of

15194
03:04:57,811 --> 03:04:58,311
. So it's

15195
03:04:58,311 --> 03:04:58,678
,

15196
03:04:58,678 --> 03:04:59,279
we can't

15197
03:04:59,279 --> 03:05:00,800
, the fair

15198
03:05:00,800 --> 03:05:00,480
forage

15199
03:05:00,480 --> 03:05:00,947
really can't

15200
03:05:00,947 --> 03:05:01,246
shine without that

15201
03:05:01,246 --> 03:05:01,981
big

15202
03:05:01,981 --> 03:05:02,549
event there

15203
03:05:02,549 --> 03:05:03,316
and some of

15204
03:05:03,316 --> 03:05:03,983
the

15205
03:05:03,983 --> 03:05:04,684
infrastructure that the fair

15206
03:05:04,684 --> 03:05:05,180
provides, but we also

15207
03:05:05,180 --> 03:05:05,852
can't

15208
03:05:05,852 --> 03:05:06,100
have kids just showing up

15209
03:05:06,100 --> 03:05:06,252
the

15210
03:05:06,252 --> 03:05:06,953
fair

15211
03:05:06,953 --> 03:05:07,520
. And

15212
03:05:07,520 --> 03:05:07,854
trying to do things,

15213
03:05:07,854 --> 03:05:08,687
right

15214
03:05:08,687 --> 03:05:09,322
? So it's that

15215
03:05:09,322 --> 03:05:09,688
, it's that

15216
03:05:09,688 --> 03:05:10,890
they're

15217
03:05:10,890 --> 03:05:11,123
all connected, right

15218
03:05:11,123 --> 03:05:11,391
?

15219
03:05:11,391 --> 03:05:11,825
So

15220
03:05:11,825 --> 03:05:12,158
, um, the

15221
03:05:12,158 --> 03:05:12,926
other

15222
03:05:12,926 --> 03:05:13,360
comment I

15223
03:05:13,360 --> 03:05:13,827
have, and I

15224
03:05:13,827 --> 03:05:14,600
, I do want

15225
03:05:14,600 --> 03:05:14,694
to

15226
03:05:14,694 --> 03:05:15,728
include ffa and

15227
03:05:15,728 --> 03:05:15,962
that ffa

15228
03:05:15,962 --> 03:05:16,229
tends

15229
03:05:16,229 --> 03:05:16,762
to

15230
03:05:16,762 --> 03:05:17,363
be very involved

15231
03:05:17,363 --> 03:05:17,664
, but they

15232
03:05:17,664 --> 03:05:18,532
are

15233
03:05:18,532 --> 03:05:18,965
a school-based

15234
03:05:18,965 --> 03:05:19,533
program and

15235
03:05:19,533 --> 03:05:20,660
so that

15236
03:05:20,660 --> 03:05:20,400
absolutely they show up

15237
03:05:20,400 --> 03:05:20,867
at the

15238
03:05:20,867 --> 03:05:21,401
fair and in

15239
03:05:21,401 --> 03:05:21,559
full steam

15240
03:05:21,559 --> 03:05:22,200
,

15241
03:05:22,200 --> 03:05:23,300
but some of

15242
03:05:23,300 --> 03:05:23,164
them might take

15243
03:05:23,164 --> 03:05:23,404
a

15244
03:05:23,404 --> 03:05:23,837
little

15245
03:05:23,837 --> 03:05:24,271
time

15246
03:05:24,271 --> 03:05:25,505
off

15247
03:05:25,505 --> 03:05:25,805
, um, this, you

15248
03:05:25,805 --> 03:05:26,273
know

15249
03:05:26,273 --> 03:05:26,840
, this time

15250
03:05:26,840 --> 03:05:28,241
of year

15251
03:05:28,241 --> 03:05:29,676
, but I

15252
03:05:29,676 --> 03:05:30,100
,

15253
03:05:30,100 --> 03:05:30,443
um, have

15254
03:05:30,443 --> 03:05:30,944
received

15255
03:05:30,944 --> 03:05:31,611
enough

15256
03:05:31,611 --> 03:05:32,790
information, even though I

15257
03:05:32,790 --> 03:05:33,380
might be

15258
03:05:33,380 --> 03:05:34,810
slightly biased

15259
03:05:34,810 --> 03:05:34,447
, um,

15260
03:05:34,447 --> 03:05:34,881
that our

15261
03:05:34,881 --> 03:05:35,648
fair

15262
03:05:35,648 --> 03:05:36,449
exhibitors are

15263
03:05:36,449 --> 03:05:36,850
world class when

15264
03:05:36,850 --> 03:05:37,184
it comes

15265
03:05:37,184 --> 03:05:37,517
to

15266
03:05:37,517 --> 03:05:38,510
their

15267
03:05:38,510 --> 03:05:38,785
then we

15268
03:05:38,785 --> 03:05:39,319
, when we

15269
03:05:39,319 --> 03:05:40,153
have

15270
03:05:40,153 --> 03:05:40,854
fair commissioners

15271
03:05:40,854 --> 03:05:41,220
, their

15272
03:05:41,220 --> 03:05:41,622
um

15273
03:05:41,622 --> 03:05:41,778
engagement level with

15274
03:05:41,778 --> 03:05:42,189
the

15275
03:05:42,189 --> 03:05:42,556
public, how

15276
03:05:42,556 --> 03:05:42,726
tidy their

15277
03:05:42,726 --> 03:05:43,356
barns

15278
03:05:43,356 --> 03:05:43,924
are and the work they do. And

15279
03:05:43,924 --> 03:05:44,323
again, I, this is

15280
03:05:44,323 --> 03:05:45,580
not coming

15281
03:05:45,580 --> 03:05:45,425
from me because

15282
03:05:45,425 --> 03:05:45,759
I think

15283
03:05:45,759 --> 03:05:46,193
that,

15284
03:05:46,193 --> 03:05:46,627
but I

15285
03:05:46,627 --> 03:05:46,994
also

15286
03:05:46,994 --> 03:05:47,727
have

15287
03:05:47,727 --> 03:05:48,280
not

15288
03:05:48,280 --> 03:05:48,629
um

15289
03:05:48,629 --> 03:05:49,290
necessarily bend every

15290
03:05:49,290 --> 03:05:49,997
fare, be

15291
03:05:49,997 --> 03:05:50,166
a management and other fare

15292
03:05:50,166 --> 03:05:50,397
,

15293
03:05:50,397 --> 03:05:50,864
but

15294
03:05:50,864 --> 03:05:51,131
I consistently get

15295
03:05:51,131 --> 03:05:51,432
this

15296
03:05:51,432 --> 03:05:52,198
, um

15297
03:05:52,198 --> 03:05:52,533
I got this from Francis

15298
03:05:52,533 --> 03:05:53,466
, our

15299
03:05:53,466 --> 03:05:54,101
assistant manager who's worked

15300
03:05:54,101 --> 03:05:54,334
at 3 fairgrounds. We

15301
03:05:54,334 --> 03:05:54,635
get this

15302
03:05:54,635 --> 03:05:54,902
from

15303
03:05:54,902 --> 03:05:55,502
fair

15304
03:05:55,502 --> 03:05:55,968
commissioners

15305
03:05:55,968 --> 03:05:56,703
at the

15306
03:05:56,703 --> 03:05:57,370
exhibitors here

15307
03:05:57,370 --> 03:05:57,638
are world

15308
03:05:57,638 --> 03:05:58,705
class

15309
03:05:58,705 --> 03:05:59,340
so

15310
03:05:59,340 --> 03:05:59,707
there's obviously

15311
03:05:59,707 --> 03:06:00,541
a

15312
03:06:00,541 --> 03:06:01,542
testament to

15313
03:06:01,542 --> 03:06:02,420
the kids

15314
03:06:02,420 --> 03:06:02,343
who are

15315
03:06:02,343 --> 03:06:02,876
here

15316
03:06:02,876 --> 03:06:03,444
, but this

15317
03:06:03,444 --> 03:06:04,611
is something

15318
03:06:04,611 --> 03:06:05,245
I've

15319
03:06:05,245 --> 03:06:05,845
consistently

15320
03:06:05,845 --> 03:06:06,413
heard

15321
03:06:06,413 --> 03:06:06,780
over

15322
03:06:06,780 --> 03:06:07,281
decades

15323
03:06:07,281 --> 03:06:07,781
and so a

15324
03:06:07,781 --> 03:06:08,282
lot of

15325
03:06:08,282 --> 03:06:08,648
credit

15326
03:06:08,648 --> 03:06:09,183
goes to

15327
03:06:09,183 --> 03:06:09,416
the youth, but a

15328
03:06:09,416 --> 03:06:09,783
lot of

15329
03:06:09,783 --> 03:06:10,884
that too

15330
03:06:10,884 --> 03:06:11,819
is the leaders, the

15331
03:06:11,819 --> 03:06:12,253
ffa advisors

15332
03:06:12,253 --> 03:06:12,653
, the

15333
03:06:12,653 --> 03:06:13,353
former 4h

15334
03:06:13,353 --> 03:06:13,921
program coordinators and

15335
03:06:13,921 --> 03:06:14,487
leaders because they're the

15336
03:06:14,487 --> 03:06:15,155
ones that are holding that

15337
03:06:15,155 --> 03:06:15,790
together and keeping that going

15338
03:06:15,790 --> 03:06:16,457
So some of these people that

15339
03:06:16,457 --> 03:06:17,323
have been around for

15340
03:06:17,323 --> 03:06:18,250
30 years

15341
03:06:18,250 --> 03:06:18,359
and you've seen that

15342
03:06:18,359 --> 03:06:19,193
same

15343
03:06:19,193 --> 03:06:19,393
quality that's, that's

15344
03:06:19,393 --> 03:06:19,693
, it's

15345
03:06:19,693 --> 03:06:19,961
them

15346
03:06:19,961 --> 03:06:20,661
that

15347
03:06:20,661 --> 03:06:21,620
deserves

15348
03:06:21,620 --> 03:06:21,429
the

15349
03:06:21,429 --> 03:06:21,728
um shout

15350
03:06:21,728 --> 03:06:23,130
out

15351
03:06:23,130 --> 03:06:23,563
. So I just wanted

15352
03:06:23,563 --> 03:06:23,798
to give

15353
03:06:23,798 --> 03:06:24,980
a

15354
03:06:24,980 --> 03:06:25,320
few

15355
03:06:25,320 --> 03:06:26,467
of those

15356
03:06:26,467 --> 03:06:27,168
, um, thoughts

15357
03:06:27,168 --> 03:06:27,935
, um,

15358
03:06:27,935 --> 03:06:28,102
and then on that note too

15359
03:06:28,102 --> 03:06:28,535
, I

15360
03:06:28,535 --> 03:06:29,300
just, if you

15361
03:06:29,300 --> 03:06:29,503
guys are at the

15362
03:06:29,503 --> 03:06:29,904
fair, just

15363
03:06:29,904 --> 03:06:30,338
go talk

15364
03:06:30,338 --> 03:06:30,705
, talk to

15365
03:06:30,705 --> 03:06:30,972
some of

15366
03:06:30,972 --> 03:06:32,173
the

15367
03:06:32,173 --> 03:06:32,440
exhibitors

15368
03:06:32,440 --> 03:06:32,773
and

15369
03:06:32,773 --> 03:06:33,307
you'll

15370
03:06:33,307 --> 03:06:33,674
learn all sorts

15371
03:06:33,674 --> 03:06:34,700
of fun

15372
03:06:34,700 --> 03:06:35,709
facts

15373
03:06:35,709 --> 03:06:36,711
There's posters and

15374
03:06:36,711 --> 03:06:37,378
you'll learn things you never

15375
03:06:37,378 --> 03:06:37,712
thought you needed

15376
03:06:37,712 --> 03:06:39,280
to know

15377
03:06:39,280 --> 03:06:39,443
. Um

15378
03:06:39,443 --> 03:06:40,470
,

15379
03:06:40,470 --> 03:06:40,447
so I'm gonna leave this

15380
03:06:40,447 --> 03:06:41,315
slide

15381
03:06:41,315 --> 03:06:41,983
up, but this is just yours fair

15382
03:06:41,983 --> 03:06:43,170
This is how to get a hold

15383
03:06:43,170 --> 03:06:44,510
of us

15384
03:06:44,510 --> 03:06:45,319
um, our social

15385
03:06:45,319 --> 03:06:45,553
media

15386
03:06:45,553 --> 03:06:46,354
pages and

15387
03:06:46,354 --> 03:06:48,550
I'm gonna turn over to

15388
03:06:48,550 --> 03:06:48,356

15635
03:09:05,761 --> 03:09:07,163
effort. Um

15636
03:09:07,163 --> 03:09:07,597
, we

15637
03:09:07,597 --> 03:09:08,640

15638
03:09:08,640 --> 03:09:08,564

03:09:09,967 --> 03:09:10,633
home

15643
03:09:10,633 --> 03:09:11,234
and

15644
03:09:11,234 --> 03:09:11,734
um definitely

15645
03:09:11,734 --> 03:09:12,702
the

15646
03:09:12,702 --> 03:09:13,200

15649
03:09:13,970 --> 03:09:14,671
and so forth

15650
03:09:14,671 --> 03:09:16,473
, and we

15651
03:09:16,473 --> 03:09:17,306
definitely support the kids and

15652
03:09:17,306 --> 03:09:19,750
all the things they do. My wife

15653
03:09:19,750 --> 03:09:20,310
was really involved in forage

15654
03:09:20,310 --> 03:09:21,770
.

15655
03:09:21,770 --> 03:09:21,711
Down in California and so

15656
03:09:21,711 --> 03:09:23,280
uh we

15657
03:09:23,280 --> 03:09:23,980
definitely appreciate all what

15658
03:09:23,980 --> 03:09:25,648
4h has done over the

15659
03:09:25,648 --> 03:09:25,814
years and

15660
03:09:25,814 --> 03:09:26,416
,

15661
03:09:26,416 --> 03:09:28,318
um, it's a great program, so

15662
03:09:28,318 --> 03:09:29,986
hope you enjoy it and, and

15663
03:09:29,986 --> 03:09:30,620
, uh,

15664
03:09:30,620 --> 03:09:31,540
come back many, many years in

15665
03:09:31,540 --> 03:09:33,540
the future

15666
03:09:34,570 --> 03:09:34,457
. I

15667
03:09:34,457 --> 03:09:34,958
want to ask a

15668
03:09:34,958 --> 03:09:36,292
question on the

15669
03:09:36,292 --> 03:09:37,270
facilities. How

15670
03:09:37,270 --> 03:09:38,361
are they doing? Are they

15671
03:09:38,361 --> 03:09:38,762
, now

15672
03:09:38,762 --> 03:09:39,128
we have a

15673
03:09:39,128 --> 03:09:39,362
facility

15674
03:09:39,362 --> 03:09:39,829
manager in

15675
03:09:39,829 --> 03:09:41,300
charge of the

15676
03:09:41,300 --> 03:09:41,598
fair grounds. I

15677
03:09:41,598 --> 03:09:41,965
don't know if Ken's gone

15678
03:09:41,965 --> 03:09:43,366
through

15679
03:09:43,366 --> 03:09:43,700
, but do you have any?

15680
03:09:43,700 --> 03:09:44,670
Yeah, I

15681
03:09:44,670 --> 03:09:44,231
think you

15682
03:09:44,231 --> 03:09:45,100
, you

15683
03:09:45,100 --> 03:09:46,402
mentioned some projects you had

15684
03:09:46,402 --> 03:09:47,671
going on and parking lot

15685
03:09:47,671 --> 03:09:48,238
Yeah,

15686
03:09:48,238 --> 03:09:48,905
I mean, we've

15687
03:09:48,905 --> 03:09:50,474
we've, um, I mean

15688
03:09:50,474 --> 03:09:50,774
we've, I mean

15689
03:09:50,774 --> 03:09:52,108
we've

15690
03:09:52,108 --> 03:09:52,342
done a lot

15691
03:09:52,342 --> 03:09:52,943
to

15692
03:09:52,943 --> 03:09:53,310
try and, and, and

15693
03:09:53,310 --> 03:09:54,210
, you know

15694
03:09:54,210 --> 03:09:54,744
,

15695
03:09:54,744 --> 03:09:55,512
move away from deferred

15696
03:09:55,512 --> 03:09:56,279
maintenance. It definitely

15697
03:09:56,279 --> 03:09:56,946
had

15698
03:09:56,946 --> 03:09:57,381
had gone into a phase there,

15699
03:09:57,381 --> 03:09:57,681
but we are

15700
03:09:57,681 --> 03:09:58,815
making

15701
03:09:58,815 --> 03:09:59,549
big

15702
03:09:59,549 --> 03:09:59,749
strides

15703
03:09:59,749 --> 03:10:00,183
,

15704
03:10:00,183 --> 03:10:01,184
um, I see a new a

15705
03:10:01,184 --> 03:10:01,485
new

15706
03:10:01,485 --> 03:10:01,952
restroom

15707
03:10:01,952 --> 03:10:02,352
facility was a

15708
03:10:02,352 --> 03:10:04,540
huge thing

15709
03:10:04,540 --> 03:10:04,555
. I

15710
03:10:04,555 --> 03:10:05,522
think with the

15711
03:10:05,522 --> 03:10:05,856
, if

15712
03:10:05,856 --> 03:10:06,656
the wsda

15713
03:10:06,656 --> 03:10:08,250
grants were able to make some

15714
03:10:08,250 --> 03:10:08,291
ground, right, with

15715
03:10:08,291 --> 03:10:08,892
the

15716
03:10:08,892 --> 03:10:09,226
paving

15717
03:10:09,226 --> 03:10:10,794
project

15718
03:10:10,794 --> 03:10:11,127
, um, a

15719
03:10:11,127 --> 03:10:11,495
lot of

15720
03:10:11,495 --> 03:10:12,162
that is

15721
03:10:12,162 --> 03:10:12,333
those are pretty high

15722
03:10:12,333 --> 03:10:12,796
value

15723
03:10:12,796 --> 03:10:13,197
projects so I

15724
03:10:13,197 --> 03:10:13,397
mean we

15725
03:10:13,397 --> 03:10:14,640
, we're

15726
03:10:14,640 --> 03:10:14,765
keeping up with it. I

15727
03:10:14,765 --> 03:10:15,265
think the

15728
03:10:15,265 --> 03:10:15,699
other thing is

15729
03:10:15,699 --> 03:10:16,667
that you know

15730
03:10:16,667 --> 03:10:17,367
in

15731
03:10:17,367 --> 03:10:17,536
2023 we were able to put

15732
03:10:17,536 --> 03:10:18,680
the

15733
03:10:18,680 --> 03:10:18,369
funding together for

15734
03:10:18,369 --> 03:10:19,369
a

15735
03:10:19,369 --> 03:10:19,803
year-round

15736
03:10:19,803 --> 03:10:20,137
maintenance person

15737
03:10:20,137 --> 03:10:20,637
um at

15738
03:10:20,637 --> 03:10:20,938
the fairgrounds

15739
03:10:20,938 --> 03:10:21,605
, so we

15740
03:10:21,605 --> 03:10:22,105
have

15741
03:10:22,105 --> 03:10:23,340
that

15742
03:10:23,340 --> 03:10:24,308
. We've been able to

15743
03:10:24,308 --> 03:10:24,642
do a lot of things behind the

15744
03:10:24,642 --> 03:10:25,776
scenes

15745
03:10:25,776 --> 03:10:26,410
on

15746
03:10:26,410 --> 03:10:28,545
that as well. So

15747
03:10:28,545 --> 03:10:28,811
, um,

15748
03:10:28,811 --> 03:10:29,380
I

15749
03:10:29,380 --> 03:10:29,680
, yeah, we have a lot of

15750
03:10:29,680 --> 03:10:30,581
things

15751
03:10:30,581 --> 03:10:31,148
in this grant. I

15752
03:10:31,148 --> 03:10:31,415
honestly for our

15753
03:10:31,415 --> 03:10:31,749
next grant

15754
03:10:31,749 --> 03:10:32,550
cycle

15755
03:10:32,550 --> 03:10:32,916
, I

15756
03:10:32,916 --> 03:10:33,317
don't

15757
03:10:33,317 --> 03:10:33,651
have anything

15758
03:10:33,651 --> 03:10:35,850
that's

15759
03:10:35,850 --> 03:10:35,486
, uh, that's glaring

15760
03:10:35,486 --> 03:10:35,953
right now

15761
03:10:35,953 --> 03:10:36,220
at me for

15762
03:10:36,220 --> 03:10:36,720
, for doing

15763
03:10:36,720 --> 03:10:37,421
that, but we

15764
03:10:37,421 --> 03:10:38,255
will definitely

15765
03:10:38,255 --> 03:10:38,589
take advantage of it if there's

15766
03:10:38,589 --> 03:10:39,590
state

15767
03:10:39,590 --> 03:10:39,923
funds available, but I

15768
03:10:39,923 --> 03:10:40,157
think

15769
03:10:40,157 --> 03:10:40,591
we

15770
03:10:40,591 --> 03:10:41,925
are

15771
03:10:41,925 --> 03:10:42,826
, um, looking good

15772
03:10:42,826 --> 03:10:43,461
.

15773
03:10:43,461 --> 03:10:44,950
I know though that

15774
03:10:44,950 --> 03:10:45,663
there's

15775
03:10:45,663 --> 03:10:46,263
always room

15776
03:10:46,263 --> 03:10:46,797
for more

15777
03:10:46,797 --> 03:10:47,898
, and some

15778
03:10:47,898 --> 03:10:48,465
of that goes out to the clubs

15779
03:10:48,465 --> 03:10:48,899
too. I

15780
03:10:48,899 --> 03:10:49,366
know that

15781
03:10:49,366 --> 03:10:50,301
the 4h

15782
03:10:50,301 --> 03:10:50,935
group

15783
03:10:50,935 --> 03:10:52,303
is

15784
03:10:52,303 --> 03:10:52,465
, um, fundraising for

15785
03:10:52,465 --> 03:10:52,703
a

15786
03:10:52,703 --> 03:10:53,304
tractor

15787
03:10:53,304 --> 03:10:53,537
right now to help

15788
03:10:53,537 --> 03:10:54,305
with

15789
03:10:54,305 --> 03:10:54,905
the arena. So there, there's

15790
03:10:54,905 --> 03:10:55,406
always more needs

15791
03:10:55,406 --> 03:10:55,940
, um, but we

15792
03:10:55,940 --> 03:10:57,341
are, we're pretty

15793
03:10:57,341 --> 03:10:57,575
proud of

15794
03:10:57,575 --> 03:10:57,779
, of

15795
03:10:57,779 --> 03:10:58,476
,

15796
03:10:58,476 --> 03:10:59,609
of where we're at right now

15797
03:10:59,609 --> 03:11:00,411
. Um

15798
03:11:00,411 --> 03:11:00,611
but we, we do try

15799
03:11:00,611 --> 03:11:01,780
and take

15800
03:11:01,780 --> 03:11:02,460
everything on

15801
03:11:02,460 --> 03:11:02,246
what's

15802
03:11:02,246 --> 03:11:03,470
, what's

15803
03:11:03,470 --> 03:11:03,915
the biggest bang for our

15804
03:11:03,915 --> 03:11:04,215
buck

15805
03:11:04,215 --> 03:11:04,581
for

15806
03:11:04,581 --> 03:11:05,160
the public

15807
03:11:05,160 --> 03:11:05,649
value is always

15808
03:11:05,649 --> 03:11:06,984
what we're looking at

15809
03:11:06,984 --> 03:11:07,451
, but you

15810
03:11:07,451 --> 03:11:07,885
guys will

15811
03:11:07,885 --> 03:11:08,319
notice we're doing

15812
03:11:08,319 --> 03:11:08,919
the paving

15813
03:11:08,919 --> 03:11:09,253
project in

15814
03:11:09,253 --> 03:11:09,854
OCTOBER

15815
03:11:09,854 --> 03:11:10,121
and that was one is

15816
03:11:10,121 --> 03:11:10,887
pretty

15817
03:11:10,887 --> 03:11:11,455
visible right when you drive on

15818
03:11:11,455 --> 03:11:12,256
the north gate

15819
03:11:12,256 --> 03:11:13,910
. So we're we're

15820
03:11:13,910 --> 03:11:13,992
looking forward to that

15821
03:11:13,992 --> 03:11:14,392
. Yeah,

15822
03:11:14,392 --> 03:11:15,593
thank you

15823
03:11:15,593 --> 03:11:15,994
very much for that.

15824
03:11:15,994 --> 03:11:16,461
We had

15825
03:11:16,461 --> 03:11:17,728
a study done

15826
03:11:17,728 --> 03:11:17,929
3

15827
03:11:17,929 --> 03:11:18,763
or 4

15828
03:11:18,763 --> 03:11:20,431
years ago. One of the things we

15829
03:11:20,431 --> 03:11:21,650
looked at affordable housing in

15830
03:11:21,650 --> 03:11:22,132
the county, where is

15831
03:11:22,132 --> 03:11:22,967
that

15832
03:11:22,967 --> 03:11:23,301
available to do it and look at

15833
03:11:23,301 --> 03:11:24,502
County

15834
03:11:24,502 --> 03:11:25,360
owned properties, and

15835
03:11:25,360 --> 03:11:25,270
one of them was

15836
03:11:25,270 --> 03:11:25,703
the

15837
03:11:25,703 --> 03:11:26,738
fairgrounds

15838
03:11:26,738 --> 03:11:27,400
and

15839
03:11:27,400 --> 03:11:27,571
the

15840
03:11:27,571 --> 03:11:28,373
senior center just

15841
03:11:28,373 --> 03:11:30,241
north of the fairgrounds and

15842
03:11:30,241 --> 03:11:31,208
basically, yes

15843
03:11:31,208 --> 03:11:31,476
, it's

15844
03:11:31,476 --> 03:11:32,310
a

15845
03:11:32,310 --> 03:11:33,211
potential

15846
03:11:33,211 --> 03:11:33,512
for

15847
03:11:33,512 --> 03:11:33,978
housing

15848
03:11:33,978 --> 03:11:34,345
, but to

15849
03:11:34,345 --> 03:11:35,914
replace

15850
03:11:35,914 --> 03:11:36,314
the fairgrounds, it

15851
03:11:36,314 --> 03:11:37,140
wasn't

15852
03:11:37,140 --> 03:11:38,160
economical to

15853
03:11:38,160 --> 03:11:38,350
replace

15854
03:11:38,350 --> 03:11:38,750
the

15855
03:11:38,750 --> 03:11:39,170
fairgrounds

15856
03:11:39,170 --> 03:11:39,951
with

15857
03:11:39,951 --> 03:11:40,518
housing

15858
03:11:40,518 --> 03:11:40,685
because there isn't

15859
03:11:40,685 --> 03:11:41,152
enough

15860
03:11:41,152 --> 03:11:41,519
margin there for

15861
03:11:41,519 --> 03:11:42,287
a builder

15862
03:11:42,287 --> 03:11:42,587
to

15863
03:11:42,587 --> 03:11:43,154
buy

15864
03:11:43,154 --> 03:11:43,588
the fairgrounds and

15865
03:11:43,588 --> 03:11:43,989
build a

15866
03:11:43,989 --> 03:11:45,257
new

15867
03:11:45,257 --> 03:11:45,924
fairground someplace to

15868
03:11:45,924 --> 03:11:47,893
make that happen. So I

15869
03:11:47,893 --> 03:11:48,460
just

15870
03:11:48,460 --> 03:11:49,293
want everybody to be

15871
03:11:49,293 --> 03:11:50,270
aware that

15872
03:11:50,270 --> 03:11:50,294
yes, we looked at it

15873
03:11:50,294 --> 03:11:50,595
, but

15874
03:11:50,595 --> 03:11:50,895
it's

15875
03:11:50,895 --> 03:11:51,328
not

15876
03:11:51,328 --> 03:11:51,630
going anywhere

15877
03:11:51,630 --> 03:11:51,963
from

15878
03:11:51,963 --> 03:11:52,430
my

15879
03:11:52,430 --> 03:11:53,732
perspective

15880
03:11:53,732 --> 03:11:53,899
, so you're and

15881
03:11:53,899 --> 03:11:54,299
the

15882
03:11:54,299 --> 03:11:54,633
staff and

15883
03:11:54,633 --> 03:11:55,330
the staff

15884
03:11:55,330 --> 03:11:55,267
is looking

15885
03:11:55,267 --> 03:11:55,734
at

15886
03:11:55,734 --> 03:11:56,168
it from, you

15887
03:11:56,168 --> 03:11:56,668
know

15888
03:11:56,668 --> 03:11:57,736
, we are

15889
03:11:57,736 --> 03:11:58,703
looking at, we're, I mean

15890
03:11:58,703 --> 03:11:58,969
, I,

15891
03:11:58,969 --> 03:11:59,504
it

15892
03:11:59,504 --> 03:12:00,105
is hard to

15893
03:12:00,105 --> 03:12:00,572
look 50 years

15894
03:12:00,572 --> 03:12:01,500
down the road

15895
03:12:01,500 --> 03:12:01,540
with funding. We,

15896
03:12:01,540 --> 03:12:02,740
we are looking 5

15897
03:12:02,740 --> 03:12:02,907
, 1015 years,

15898
03:12:02,907 --> 03:12:03,146
and that's our goal. It's some

15899
03:12:03,146 --> 03:12:03,408
,

15900
03:12:03,408 --> 03:12:03,775
some days

15901
03:12:03,775 --> 03:12:04,208
you're looking 5

15902
03:12:04,208 --> 03:12:05,377
years down

15903
03:12:05,377 --> 03:12:06,110
the road. Some days

15904
03:12:06,110 --> 03:12:07,179
it's 10, sometimes

15905
03:12:07,179 --> 03:12:07,779
it's 15. The

15906
03:12:07,779 --> 03:12:08,800
next day it's back

15907
03:12:08,800 --> 03:12:08,480
to

15908
03:12:08,480 --> 03:12:09,314
2, but

15909
03:12:09,314 --> 03:12:09,614
we

15910
03:12:09,614 --> 03:12:10,148
are

15911
03:12:10,148 --> 03:12:10,682
, we are looking at those

15912
03:12:10,682 --> 03:12:11,116
things and so we

15913
03:12:11,116 --> 03:12:12,584
are looking at

15914
03:12:12,584 --> 03:12:12,917
with longevity in the

15915
03:12:12,917 --> 03:12:13,218
current

15916
03:12:13,218 --> 03:12:14,119
site

15917
03:12:14,119 --> 03:12:14,419
and investing

15918
03:12:14,419 --> 03:12:14,786
in it

15919
03:12:14,786 --> 03:12:15,754
a lot

15920
03:12:15,754 --> 03:12:16,254
and so

15921
03:12:16,254 --> 03:12:16,788
, um, we

15922
03:12:16,788 --> 03:12:16,955
again, when

15923
03:12:16,955 --> 03:12:17,688
you

15924
03:12:17,688 --> 03:12:18,230
guys invest in that even

15925
03:12:18,230 --> 03:12:19,570
with

15926
03:12:19,570 --> 03:12:19,591
our foundation or the projects

15927
03:12:19,591 --> 03:12:19,958
we help the

15928
03:12:19,958 --> 03:12:20,792
horse

15929
03:12:20,792 --> 03:12:21,590
department

15930
03:12:21,590 --> 03:12:21,727
.

15931
03:12:21,727 --> 03:12:22,161
Please know that

15932
03:12:22,161 --> 03:12:22,928

committing towards

15934
03:12:23,595 --> 03:12:24,328
a

15935
03:12:24,328 --> 03:12:24,830
sustainable

15936
03:12:24,830 --> 03:12:25,631
thing and again

15937
03:12:25,631 --> 03:12:25,998
we've talked about the funding

15938
03:12:25,998 --> 03:12:26,998
level

15939
03:12:26,998 --> 03:12:27,699
of self-funded, so

15940
03:12:27,699 --> 03:12:28,330
there

15941
03:12:28,330 --> 03:12:28,467
is, we

15942
03:12:28,467 --> 03:12:28,867
are going to

15943
03:12:28,867 --> 03:12:29,401
work

15944
03:12:29,401 --> 03:12:29,802
to

15945
03:12:29,802 --> 03:12:30,235
work very

15946
03:12:30,235 --> 03:12:30,602
very

15947
03:12:30,602 --> 03:12:31,337
hard and we have

15948
03:12:31,337 --> 03:12:31,704
to work harder every year

15949
03:12:31,704 --> 03:12:32,304
to

15950
03:12:32,304 --> 03:12:32,671
sustain it, but it

15951
03:12:32,671 --> 03:12:34,273
does have

15952
03:12:34,273 --> 03:12:34,707
some stable

15953
03:12:34,707 --> 03:12:35,174
footing if we can

15954
03:12:35,174 --> 03:12:37,900
continue to

15955
03:12:37,900 --> 03:12:37,643
get community

15956
03:12:37,643 --> 03:12:38,343
support, so we just want to

15957
03:12:38,343 --> 03:12:39,244
know that you're giving to

15958
03:12:39,244 --> 03:12:39,845
something sustainable, and we

15959
03:12:39,845 --> 03:12:41,120
also at the same

15960
03:12:41,120 --> 03:12:41,413
time do very

15961
03:12:41,413 --> 03:12:41,948

other

15967
03:12:45,784 --> 03:12:47,784
questions, comments

15968
03:12:48,354 --> 03:12:48,988
? So

15969
03:12:48,988 --> 03:12:49,789
with that, we're going to

15970
03:12:49,789 --> 03:12:50,423
adjourn for a couple of minutes

15971
03:12:50,423 --> 03:12:50,823
and then we have our

15972
03:12:50,823 --> 03:12:51,424
budget

15973
03:12:51,424 --> 03:12:52,258
meeting with all

15974
03:12:52,258 --> 03:12:52,524
our

15975
03:12:52,524 --> 03:12:54,524
different
